Chapter 314 Jiang Youli vs. Jiang Zhao: A Voting Battle
Chapter 314 Jiang Youli vs. Jiang Zhao: A Voting Battle
Jiang Yangxu watched the video on his phone as his wife knelt on the ground eating the leftovers the dog had eaten and drinking swill. Her pathetic state made him go from feeling sorry for her to feeling disgusted.
In fact, he did hesitate for a moment about whether or not to sacrifice his wife. What made him decide to sacrifice his wife was not because his eldest son Jiang Xing was not up to par, but because his brother-in-law's family treated them so badly and cruelly when they moved to the Qin family for refuge!
Seeing that he is now down on his luck, he allows his son to insult them time and time again!
What can be tolerated by scholars?
He won't go back to being this down and out forever!
Once he returns to the Jiang family and seizes power, he will do everything he can to suppress the Qin family and make them pay the price for their foolish deeds!
As a member of the Qin family, Qin Yulian, who couldn't help him in any way, decided to use her life to help him one last time!
After watching the video, Jiang Yangxu took out a cigarette and lit it. Now, what he needed to think about was how to return to the Jiang family on the day of his wretched daughter Jiang Youli's birthday party!
If we knew the list of invitees this time, things would be much easier.
Among those invited, Zhang Susu's family members should be present, and besides Qi Huan and Old Master Qi, Qi An'an should also be from the Qi family, since Qi An'an has been getting quite close to Jiang Youli, that wretched girl, recently.
There are also the people from Jianshan Village, such as Zhou Wang, Qin Lang, and Meng Yao who came before.
As for the Duan family... that young man from the Duan family is her ex-boyfriend, and he's quite the troublemaker, so Jiang Youli would never invite him.
After thinking it over, I couldn't find anyone suitable to receive an invitation.
Fine, if that doesn't work, we'll ask the Long family if they have any ideas.
……
The following day, Starlight Entertainment.
After Jiang Youli and the five mysterious new employees she had called in to help complete the final MV and video production for her new song, Secretary Xiao Yang followed them with her phone.
Upon arriving at the office, Jiang Youli had barely sat down when her secretary, Xiao Yang, quickly approached and reported, "President Jiang, please take a look. Recently, someone on Weibo started a poll comparing your new song with Jiang Zhao's. The poll is about whose new song will be more popular and get more paid downloads."
Jiang Youli stretched and asked slowly, "Oh? So how are the voting results now?"
Secretary Xiao Yang replied, "Jiang Zhao is currently far ahead with over 20,000 votes, while you, Mr. Jiang, only have a little over 2,000 votes. But this is normal, after all, Jiang Zhao has been in the industry for two years. Although he is not a big star, he has accumulated a certain number of fans."
After listening, Jiang Youli nodded and said calmly, "Yes, that's quite normal."
Secretary Xiao Yang tentatively asked, "President Jiang, do you think we should hire some online trolls to inflate the numbers? That way, President Jiang's vote count will look better, otherwise, all the netizens are saying he's going to lose..."
Jiang Youli said dismissively, "There's no need to waste extra budget on my new song. Just promote it as planned. That way, if my new song is more popular than Jiang Zhao's when it's released, there will be enough of a surprise."
Secretary Xiao Yang nodded, seeing how confident she was, and felt more at ease herself. "Okay."
……
In the staff office, when Secretary Yang returned, her colleagues asked curiously, "Secretary Yang, have you heard President Jiang's new song? What do you think of it? Can it beat Jiang Zhao?"
Secretary Xiao Yang shook her head and said, "No, because the entire recording process was done by President Jiang and those mysterious employees she found, so I have no idea what level her three new songs are at."
"You don't even know Secretary Yang?"
"If it's at the same level as the song she improvised at the welcome party, then there's nothing to say. The real fear is that it's just online marketing hype, and that the song wasn't actually improvised, but rather something she prepared beforehand to put down her adopted daughter!"
"That's what I'm worried about too. Right now, a lot of people online are paying attention to President Jiang and Jiang Zhao's new song."
"If the new song is bad, it'll probably be ridiculed to death!"
Secretary Xiao Yang waved her hand, trying to reassure him with some confidence: "It's alright, we have to trust President Jiang's abilities. I'm looking forward to Starlight Entertainment developing better and better, and getting lots of bonuses."
Seeing her say that, the others didn't say anything more. Anyway, it wouldn't be long before President Jiang's new song was officially released, and they would know then.
……
After Secretary Xiao Yang left, Jiang Youli thought of something and opened the "Beijing Circle of Figures" group, which she hadn't checked in a long time, and tagged Li Zixuan: [The two-month deadline for our bet is almost up. Starlight Entertainment hasn't gone bankrupt yet, and my new song is about to be released. If it becomes a hit, my net worth will skyrocket, and Starlight Entertainment will thrive even more. Are you ready to put on your leash and wait for me to take you for a walk?]
Not long after.
Li Zixuan then jumped out.
The good-for-nothing young master: [Your new song is definitely going to flop without making a splash, so stop talking big. I've got your shoes ready! You'd better wash your tongue and get ready to lick them!]
Immediately afterwards, he sent over a photo of shoes with small studs on the upper.
Qi An'an also chimed in.
An An gloated: [Sister-in-law, when you take Li Zixuan for a walk, can I come to watch? I don't want to watch the live stream.]
Jiang Youli: [Sure]
An'an was overjoyed: [That's great!]
……
Li Zixuan was furious at Jiang Youli's provocation, but he was also a little unsure of himself, so he rushed to the City That Never Sleeps to find Long Yuan that night.
Unexpectedly, besides a few young masters who, like him, had been hanging around Long Yuan for years, there was also Long Yuan's fiancée, Yu Linglong, and Yu Hongtu, who didn't get along with Yu Linglong.
Long Yuan glanced at Li Zixuan but didn't speak. Yu Hongtu, however, spoke up: "Li Zixuan, do you need to see Young Master Long for something?"
Li Zixuan respectfully stepped forward, his face full of flattery, and said, "Young Master Long, the bet I made with Jiang Youli that Starlight Entertainment would go bankrupt in two months is about to expire. If I lose, I'll have to be treated like a dog by that little bitch Jiang Youli."
Li Zixuan was initially very confident.
He felt that as long as it was someone Young Master Long wanted to deal with, two months would be more than enough time to bring them down.
But now more than a month has passed, and just as Jiang Youli said, Starlight Entertainment shows no signs of decline.
From the initial copyright dispute over "The Legend of Chusen," to Dafeng Entertainment spending a fortune to poach talent from Starlight Entertainment, to Dafeng Entertainment urgently initiating a project to film a TV series similar to "The Legend of Chusen," and even recruiting Jiang Zhao to Dafeng Entertainment...
Every step Dafeng Entertainment took was an attempt to suppress Xingguang Entertainment, but Xingguang Entertainment remained steadfast and even easily resolved some of the crises.
For example, in the copyright dispute over "The Ambition of Qingyun", it turned out that Jiang Youli herself was the original author!
Starlight Entertainment lost more than ten experienced veterans, but Jiang Youli unexpectedly recruited five people from who-knows-where. These people are said to be very mysterious and do not follow any rules.
Just like Jiang Youli's new song, it is said that the entire production was done by Jiang Youli herself and five new employees she recruited. None of the other employees knew how good Jiang Youli's new song was.
Since returning to Beijing, Jiang Youli has been caught in a whirlpool due to her flamboyant personality, becoming the focus of Beijing's social circles. Now, her every move is under close scrutiny.
For example, regarding her new song, someone even started an online poll comparing her personality to Jiang Zhao's.
Fortunately, Jiang Zhao's votes were still far ahead.
It seems that everyone still has more faith in Jiang Zhao.
After all, Jiang Zhao's previous songs were of high quality, and he had produced some catchy and popular songs, so it was only a matter of time before he became a top star in the music industry.
