Chapter 40

News on the internet spread quickly; the news that Zhang Yang was going to re-record "Love Like Fire" instantly swept across the internet!

[Tsk tsk, this Zhang Yang has truly exploded in popularity! Who would believe that just a few days ago, he was still a complete nobody!]

[This is truly a rare sight! It’s my first time seeing someone become famous not by singing, not by acting, but by dating!]

[I have to say, Brother Yang is clear-headed; his quotes have given me a lot of inspiration. Ever since I became single, my sleep has improved, my savings have increased, and I’ve even become better at gaming! Dating? Not even a dog would do that!]

[The music is finally going to be released. Usually, I can only extract the songs from the show; I’ve finally waited for a high-quality version!]

[I love "Love Like Fire"! Of course, I’m talking about the "o" version. I can only say Brother Yang is awesome!]

[I like both versions. Although the original is a bit "earthy-hype," it’s fun to dance to, but I always feel like something is missing!]

[Is there anyone else like me who only loves the younger sister? My purple younger sister! Still looking forward to it!]

[That guy Zhang Yang is busy dating Bai Lu every day; where would he find the time to write songs? At his speed, see you next year!]

[Sob sob...! I have to survive the whole year on half a song!]

[There are many big shots online who have continued writing about the purple younger sister. Although they aren't Zhang Yang's works, some of them are actually quite good quality!]

………………

In an instant, search entries regarding Zhang Yang sprouted up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

The speed of this spread was no slower than the juicy gossip about some celebrity getting cheated on!

In just half an hour,

#Zhang Yang "Love Like Fire"!#

This entry directly parachuted to the top of the Weibo trending list, pushing the previous number one down.

But netizens discovered, hilariously, that the original trending topic was still Zhang Yang himself!

Many netizens sighed in succession!

Zhang Yang is truly the "favored son" of Weibo!

This abnormal level of popularity also caught the attention of the backend staff at Weibo.

Could this man named "Zhang Yang" really be a relative of their boss's wife?

At the same time,

The name Zhang Yang!

Once again entered the eyes of the heads of major entertainment companies!

Through this trending incident, they knew.

Zhang Yang already had the qualifications to become a top-tier celebrity!

Tianyu, Lehua, Taiyang, Yixin, Huanrui, Tangren... and other major entertainment companies.

They all took action one after another.

This time, the chips they offered were even higher than last time, with better conditions, swearing to secure Zhang Yang's artist contract.

Although they were brushed off by Wang Yu with various excuses last time, they believed that was just Zhang Yang holding out for a better price!

Everyone has a price!

This time, they were full of confidence!

Jiahang Entertainment

"Sister Mi! Quickly wipe your drool; it’s only been a few days, how did you become such a fangirl!"

Reba complained to Yang Mi while eating snacks.

At this moment, Yang Mi was holding her phone, watching Zhang Yang and Bai Lu's livestream.

"What fangirl! This is a gold nugget, a big treasure. If our Jiahang can sign Zhang Yang, then my bet with Huanrui can be over-fulfilled!"

Yang Mi looked at Zhang Yang in the video, her eyes flashing with golden light—that was the thing called money.

"With our Sister Mi's charm, isn't taking down Zhang Yang a piece of cake?"

"Sigh~! I can't even contact that guy at all; everything is blocked by Wang Yu. I can't even see his face, so how can I exert my charm!"

Yang Mi looked at her own beautiful figure with regret.

"Reba, do you know what I regret most right now?"

"What is it?"

Reba stopped what she was doing and looked at Yang Mi.

"The thing I regret most is that I rejected the invitation for 'Let's Fall in Love' back then!"

"Ah...! Sister Mi, you wanted to sacrifice yourself?"

Reba looked at Yang Mi with a shocked expression, full of disbelief.

"What are you saying? The person the show invited was you, I just rejected it at the time, otherwise Bai Lu's position would have been yours, and now Zhang Yang would be mine too!"

"Ah ah...! So Sister Mi, you wanted to sell me out!"

Reba was stunned; it was her first time hearing about this!

"Hee hee... otherwise what?"

Yang Mi revealed a cunning smile!

City Central Hospital

Seeing Zhang Yang on the trending list yet again, Wang Yu's mouth felt like it was splitting open.

As Zhang Yang's performance became more and more outstanding, Wang Yu knew that this time he wouldn't be able to stop those major entertainment companies.

It was fortunate that he had checked into the hospital this time, so he could find an excuse to stall for Zhang Yang for a few more days.

He just didn't know what Zhang Yang's thoughts were right now.

In his view, this was the best time for Zhang Yang to enter the entertainment industry, enough to gain the maximum benefit.

If they continued to wait, holding out for a higher price, it would make those companies lose patience.

Zhang Yang was indeed very popular now, even more so than some first or second-tier celebrities.

But Zhang Yang had no agency, no artist management team; he was like duckweed without roots.

Once the show "Let's Fall in Love" ended, lacking a platform and exposure, Zhang Yang would only fade into the crowd!

At this moment, Wang Yu's wife walked in carrying a basket of fruit.

"Old Wang, is this President Yang a friend of yours?"

"Oh? Which President Yang?"

"That young lady just now said it was that President Yang from Jiahang!"

"Oh! I know, we've collaborated before!"

In this instant, Wang Yu understood Yang Mi's intentions.

This woman was truly difficult to deal with.

Fine, fine!

Wang Yu pondered for a moment and took out his phone.

On the other side.

Glory Music Studio.

It was Zhang Yang's first time seeing a recording studio; he looked around blindly, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

Guitars, drum kits, electronic keyboards, pianos, basses, ... and a series of other musical instruments.

Ever since he gained "Full-Type Instrument Proficiency (Beginner)," it was Zhang Yang's first time being this close to these instruments, and he couldn't help but feel a bit itchy in his heart.

However, looking at each instrument, they might as well have had the words "very expensive" plastered on them.

Zhang Yang had no choice but to suppress the itch in his heart!

"Ah! ... Zhang Yang! Look quickly, this studio is very impressive!"

Bai Lu pulled Zhang Yang's shoulder, pointing at the photos on the wall, her tone full of surprise.

Zhang Yang looked in the direction Bai Lu was pointing, and he also gasped.

He saw many photos of celebrities on the wall, among whom were many he had collaborated with before—of course, he had used a different alias back then.

Wang Wang Lihong, Wang Feng, Deng Deng Ziqi, Lin Junjie, Han Hong, ....

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect this studio Director Wang booked for me to be so awesome! Two-thirds of the entire Chinese music scene has been here."

"Ah? Didn't they always say 'half the landscape'? How did it become two-thirds of the landscape with you!"
