《Rebirth of the Entertainment Giant》Taming
Advertisement
After he had listened to Wang Jingwen's remarks, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help but blink.
Although Wang Jingwen did not say anything, Zhang Xiaohua was not a fool as he naturally heard the meaning behind Wang Jingwen's words.
Simply put, she just wanted to use her own body in exchange for the right to do the song's vocals. Otherwise, she wouldn't have said something like “to talk alone" with herself. Her implication was heard by Zhang Xiaohua and it was already clear.
Indeed, according to Wang Jingwen, regardless of whether the other party was the boss or the director. As long as the other party was a man and the first was a woman, and when both parties had certain needs to be met, this choice would naturally produce agreements.
This kind of agreement allowed both parties to profit. Their interests may involve money, but it may also involve physical aspects or spiritual aspects. This habit was widely known and was not a secret at all. It was referred to as the "hidden rule."
In fact, for Wang Jingwen and even many female stars, they used their own 'capital' to trade and then got what they wanted, there was nothing wrong with it. It was precisely because of their own needs.
For Wang Jingwen's style of work, Zhang Xiaohua was not surprised. Things like "hidden rules" were not rare in his previous life and the news was reported almost daily. It is no exaggeration to say that, as long as there were people, these kind of rules would be formed. Especially within the entertainment circle. For this, Zhang Xiaohua had already seen many times.
However, although this kind of rule is universal, there were many hidden dangers. At least on Earth, this kind of rule didn’t know how many people's reputations had been destroyed. Once exposed, it would be a lifelong blemish, which would be lingering every day.
Zhang Xiaohua's heart was caught wandering by Wang Jingwen's remarks, but for the time being, he did not dare to take the risk.
Caution saved lives.
Now that the business was still in its infancy, he didn’t want to wreck his business by risking it, or it could have an adverse effect on his own reputation, including the entire company and even his entire development plan.

Zhang Xiaohua was a man who wanted to be the "King of the Entertainment World". He couldn't destroy his reputation by doing something stupid and dangerous. Moreover, Wang Jingwen was not very trustworthy. Only the Gods knew whether or not she would leak their affair, just to get back at him.
‘I still want to start low-key. As for the unspoken rules, well we can always reconsider it later...’
However, since he intended to sign this Wang Jingwen, he must first train her like a horse. Otherwise, who knew if she would return to her previous attitude.
"Give me your glasses." This shout resounded like thunder and instantly penetrated her eardrums!
For a moment, the audience was deathly quiet.
Wang Jingwen felt like she was attacked by a thunderbolt, but she did not dare to neglect. She quickly took off her sunglasses and finally showed her entire face to Zhang Xiaohua.
Almost at the same time, the clear skies of the 10,000-mile sky were suddenly raging with lightning. Dark clouds covered the entire city which was now enveloped in a dark and shady atmosphere. Immediately afterwards, they heard a crack of thunder. To break the silence of the void, the reverberating sounds of heavy rain echoed through the darkness.
Yuan Datong was also shocked by Zhang Xiaohua's sudden change in pace.
He always felt that Zhang Xiaohua, who he knew today, was like the weather in April. It was always erratic, unpredictable, and he couldn't help but notice how unfamiliar he was becoming to him.
Looking at Wang Jingwen's face full of powder, Zhang Xiaohua shook his head in disappointment, and in order to completely destroy the arrogance of Wang Jingwen's heart, he only said: "You are not my ideal singer anymore."
After listening to this, Wang Jingwen hurriedly asked, "I'm sorry boss, but I would like to ask, what is your ideal singer? Although, you said I'm not her, I will try to change my image until you're satisfied boss."
In fact, Zhang Xiaohua had listened to Wang Jingwen's voice through the music video before and he was very satisfied with it. However, as a singer, a nice sound was not enough. She must have a good image, unless she was going to become a behind-the-scenes singer and she was not going to show up in music videos or to public events.

This Wang Jingwen was an impeccable beauty, but in comparison to the pure image Zhang Xiaohua had in his mind, it was too different.
Especially the layer of foundation on her face, its thickness is estimated that even if someone cuts her with a knife, it wouldn't necessarily be able to hurt her face. It was stunning but vulgar, it was really difficult to see any hints of shyness or purity.
She needed to completely change her current image.
"Do you really want to sing this song?" Zhang Xiaohua already knew her answer. The purpose was naturally to give Wang Jingwen a touch of hope. He would thoroughly tame her.
"Yes, I really want to. I ask boss to give me this opportunity and if I ever become rich in the future, I will never forget the understanding of boss today!" Wang Jingwen resolutely guaranteed.
Zhang Xiaohua gently smiled, he was silent as he slowly turned and looked out the door.
As he looked at the heavy downpour, Zhang Xiaohua's face inadvertently showed a smirk, then in the tone of an order, he said: "Well, go outside, stand in the rain and wash all that heavy makeup off your face. Then we can talk about cooperation."
"I would like to ask boss, you... What do you mean by this?" Wang Jingwen mind was full of confusion.
She really didn't understand what Zhang Xiaohua meant?
It's makeup, so what does it have to do with singing?
Singing was due to vocal cords, not by the face.
Zhang Xiaohua did not explain, nor did he need to explain. What he wanted was Wang Jingwen's complete obedience, rather than her doubts. His next face had shown indifference as he replied "Will you go or not? If you go, then you still have the opportunity to come back in and we can have a talk. If you don't go, then it's embarrassing for me to forgive you and that means I can't give you the rights to sing this song. I don't like people that will not obey me!"
Wang Jingwen finally understood what he meant.
His last sentence already explained everything.
In order to get the rights to sing, Wang Jingwen could only choose unconditional obedience. So in full view, she slowly went to the door, opened it and entered into the wind and rain.
Soon after, she was dripping wet from the rain, and the heavy makeup on her face was gradually washed off. She was drenched inside and out, and the thin-waist dress was tightly pressed against her skin. As if it was already integrated with her, her almost jade body was more clearly visible. Yuan Datong and the other males almost fell apart from the excitement. Even Emma could not help but erect a thumbs up. The woman's body was really worthy of being the envy and jealousy of others!
Through the veil of rain, as he looked at the slim woman in the storm, Zhang Xiaohua was also quite shocked.
It must be said that although Wang Jingwen could not compare with the Heavenly Queen level celebrities back on Earth, she had a few special temperaments.
She could be as beautiful as a rose, or as cool and proud as a plum blossom, and at the same time, she could be as pure as a lily. She gave people a feeling of diversity.
Even if Zhang Xiaohua was very clear that women like her were very fickle, he didn't worry too much. As long as she could help the company grow, he would use her.
Once the company had a reputation, it wouldn't be them who would be looking for stars, it would be the stars would come to the company and line up. This way, they could save time and concentrate on creating more songs with Yuan Datong. It could also be described as a double-edged sword.
All in all, so far, everything was under control. The next thing to do was to use this Wang Jingwen and take the first step towards the peak!

Vemödalen: From The Other Side
War is coming - And when it comes - And where it comes - And whence it comes - The living shall envy the dead One to carry their sword in the name of their goddess and lady, to protect their land and people against the threat of the wicked. They know their path to be the righteous one. One to roam the land, hunting for all apparitions, and be scorned by man and beast alike. They know their path to be an arduous one. One to wander the realm in search of power, to protect themselves and what they believe in. They know their path to be the only one. Writers note: The first chapter will set the standard in terms of mood for the remainder of the story. It also comes to no surprise to me that half the people who read the first part stop reading any further. It has quite a bit of the good ‘ol ‘ultra-violence’ mixed with a great deal of realism. As much as I could fit into it from my own knowledge and experience in the elite forces. The first few chapters will be slow, after, but starting from ‘Restless Destroyer’ the remainder of the world will start to open up, and when we hit ‘Adronitis’ the prologue is largely finished. The novel is well thought out and filled with hidden lore, culture, history. So even if my word choice appears random – it’s not. There is a reason why these chapters take as long as they do. Vermodalen is fantasy adventure, with magic and heroics in an as realistic setting as I could fit. Things are rarely what they seem, and the ugly nature of people bleed through the letters at the turn of every page. I hope you can give this story a fair chance, even if it isn’t immediately to your taste. Lastly, english isn't my first language. It isn't my second one either. So, if you find errors in grammer and spelling, wordplay and sentance building, do let me know, and you will be rewarded by a surge of dopamine that will be released inside your brain for helping someone whom you haven't even seen or heard.

A Merchants Tale
Legends rise. Country’s fall. Empires wage war. But what supports these great powers, allowing them to function as a single organism. Is it the common man, Farmers and Millers forming the backbone of the land? The Soldiers and Guards keeping public order? The Wives and Widows supporting from the side-lines? The Nobles from their seats of power? Or the elusive Sorcerers who wield power untold? And what maggots crawl in this great creature, all trying to get a piece of its slowly decaying flesh. The gangs of the Underworld hidden in the shadows? The Bandits and Deserters hiding at the edges, ready to pounce on any weakness? Witches and Warlocks working their dark art? Or other Nations clawing at their neighbour’s, salivating over the riches they stand to gain from another’s demise. There is one group that belongs to neither group. They thrive on others misfortune and bring with them salvation and destruction in equal measure. They can raise a kingdom up or tear it down screaming and kicking. These are the merchants, the lifeblood of kingdoms, because what is the one thing above all else men crave. Is it Love? Power? Destruction? All these things can be acquired with one simple thing. Wealth. Wealth is the true power behind the world. Wealth can buy army’s, strangle kingdoms, and turn even the most devout man from his faith. Merchants come in many forms, shapes and sized, some gaudy, bleeding the people for all their worth, some tricky, preferring to make contracts and debts to trap men. And some desperate, doing all they can to sell even the most worthless of junk. This is a story of one merchant who goes against all a merchant stands for. He works not for profit but for some unseen goal, a prophesy aeons old. He comes and goes like a ghost, bringing with him hope and victory. All pray for his arrival to spare them from despair. But what about when he doesn’t show? What about the people he doesn’t save? For this man is no angel, no saint sent to save the masses. His goal was never to deliver hope. It merely isn’t time for their destruction yet. For nothing is eternal. And all things must end. But what comes after? Quick disclaimer in response to the review I got, this is my first story and somewhat of an experiment for me, hopefully my writing will get better the more I practice. Thanks for any helpful advice :)
