Chapter 163 – Jealousy is Indeed a Disease

“What do you mean?” Niu Meiling asked, “How do you divide it?”

Unexpectedly, the response of Sister Ling wasn’t to rebuke, but rather have an interested look of wanting to know more. Mo Fei was so surprised that she looked at Niu Meiling closely. She still had a glimmer of hope that Sister Ling might object later!

“I mean, like our own Zhenzhen, isn’t she also preparing for her new album? Why don’t Zhenzhen take three or four good songs from her album and make an exchange with Mo Fei?” Jian Chao said with a smile, “In any case, there are so many classic songs, losing a few songs is nothing, but for our Zhenzhen, it will be a great help!”

Zhen Muqian stood up very cooperatively, with a warm smile on her face, and said intimately, “Zhenzhen would like to thank Sister Mo Fei for her help.”

Help your head! Mo Xiaojuan vomited in her mind. She felt that this woman was so hypocritical that she put on a Gongdou drama.1

As soon as Zhen Muqian said this, several agents, who had already reached an agreement, stood up one after another and began to fight for songs for their artists. It was as if Mo Fei had opened a supermarket here.

“Our Yueyue is not releasing an album at the moment, but we are scheduled to release next year. Can we also keep one for our Yueyue? When our Yueyue become popular, we will be grateful to all of you…” Even without an appointment, some agents of small star could not help but open their mouths.

“Cough, everyone, please be quiet. If you decide to do this, the company will allocate these resources reasonably. Even if we can’t, we can still ask Mr. Mu Li’ang to write more songs for us.” Niu Meiling smiled brightly.

Finally, as if she remembered Mo Fei, she turned around, looked at Mo Fei, smiled and asked, “Mo Fei, what do you think of Jian Chao’s proposal? Of course, the company will not treat you badly, and will try its best to help you collect songs and fill the rest of the vacancies.”

Mo Fei’s pretty face seemed to be covered with frost, and her whole body exuded an air of indifference.

She really didn’t expect that Sister Ling would not speak for her!

“No!” Mo Fei stared at Sister Ling for a long time before saying word by word, “This. is. MY. song!”

Jane Chuo just smiled and said, “Yes, it’s your song, but aren’t you also from this company? You have to listen to the unified arrangement of the company, and the company isn’t saying that it will not give you an album. If you take a step back, isn’t the company giving you more resources to help you make the album better and do more publicity?”

Mo Fei was so angry that she had clenched her fists under the table. She wasn’t the kind of person who liked to get into a loud argument, otherwise she would really want to scold.

“Really shameless!” Mo Xiaojuan scolded for her.

“Mo Xiaojuan, who are you scolding?” Jane Chuo was a little caught off guard by the scolding.

“I’m scolding you, and you people who take advantage of the fire to rob!”2 Mo Xiaojuan stood up, confronted Jian Chao across the table, and scolded angrily, “These songs were written by Mu Li’ang to Mo Fei. Why are you robbing them?”

Mo Xiaojuan still hasn’t fully expressed herself and scolded again: “I think if jealousy is a disease, I’m afraid you’ll all have to lie down in the hospital!”

Mo Fei pulled Mo Xiaojuan’s clothes, but this time she didn’t make Mo Xiaojuan stop, instead she said in a voice that wasn’t loud, but enough for everyone to hear: “It seems that jealousy is indeed a disease.”

She was also very serious, as if she was discussing a scientific problem…

The meeting room fell into an awkward silence…

After a while, Niu Meiling coughed twice and came forward to mediate: “You can’t say that. The company just takes the overall situation into consideration and allocates so many high-quality song resources. Mo Fei, you have to understand Sister Ling’s difficulties.”

Mo Fei shook her head. She suppressed her emotions and said, “No, Sister Ling, I’m not stupid. The company didn’t collect these songs for me. We asked Mu Li’ang to write songs. We didn’t use the company’s contacts or the company’s funds. When did it become the company’s resources?”

Jian Chao reprimanded: “Mo Fei, you are too arrogant3, aren’t you from the company? Do you still listen to the arrangement of the company?”

Then, she gritted her teeth and revealed her unfinished trump card: “As far as I know, you have not signed a contract with Mu Li’ang. Mu Li’ang didn’t say these songs are written for you.”

“Oh, how do you know that?” Mo Xiaojuan laughed and asked in a very strange way.

“This…” Jian Chao was short of words for a while, but still found a lie. “You’re not the only one who knows Mu Li’ang. We naturally also have his contact information!”

“Oh!” Mo Xiaojuan laughed and said, “Mu Li’ang didn’t say these songs were written for us, were they written for the company?”

Jian Chao braced herself and said, “That’s right! We got in touch with Mu Li’ang last night and we’re going to sign these twelve songs with him in the name of the company! So, these 12 songs will belong to the company’s resources!”

Jane Chuo saw surprise in Mo Fei’s face, but she was disappointed because the panic she had expected didn’t appear in Mo Xiaojuan’s face.

Mo Xiaojuan’s expression was very calm, so calm that she felt something was wrong.

“Since this is the case, Mo Fei, you will be wronged a little, but don’t mind it. How could Sister Ling possibly let you be wronged? I’ll make sure to invest the most resources to you and make your new album a hit!” Niu Meiling said with a smile.

Mo Fei couldn’t tell whether she was sad, lost or desperate at the moment. But her expression remained cold, making people unable to see any fluctuations.

Zhenzhen was still very young. She was so nervous just now, but now she finally breathed a sigh of relief and smiled complacently, feeling that the situation had been decided.

However, Mo Xiaojuan smiled, turned around to pick up the briefcase from the chair behind her. She took out a stack of paper and shook it as if she was showing it off.

“Well, I’m afraid you may want to see this!” Mo Xiaojuan said triumphantly, “This is the electronic authorization letter sent to us by Mu Li’ang, and it is clearly stated that Mo Fei is the beneficiary of the right to sing these 12 songs, and is the only authorized person!”

Mo Fei was a little surprised. She had seen Mo Xiaojuan print out these papers before the meeting, but she kept looking at what Yang Yi sent her and read it again and again, and didn’t pay attention to what it was.

Mu Li’ang sent them an electronic authorization? Why didn’t she know?

Jane Chuo’s eyes widened, and she hurriedly grabbed it and looked through it. The format was exactly the same as the one she sent to Mu Li’ang last night – Of course, it was the unified template of the copyright organization. However, Mu Li’ang signed the electronic seal, and Party B on it has changed from Tiamei Entertainment Agency to Mo Fei, and there were additional notes…

“If it’s not Mo Fei who is singing these songs, the authorization would be deemed invalid.” Mo Xiaojuan kindly reminded, “The copyright organizations will instead impose severe punishment on infringers!”

Niu Meiling looked at Jane Chuo with unconvinced eyes, but the latter could only response with a bitter smile.

“Well, we can discuss this with Mu Li’ang, right? Mo Fei, I think you should also look at the big picture.” Niu Meiling said with a smile.

“No!” Mo Fei shook her head firmly.

Suddenly, the atmosphere in the meeting room became awkward.

“Hehe!” Mo Xiaojuan didn’t plan to let Jian Chao go. She stretched out her finger, pointed at the opposite party, and said with a smile, “This problem is actually very easy to solve. Doesn’t Jian Chao know Mu Li’ang? Let her go to Mu Li’ang and have her ask him to write more songs. Like this, won’t everyone have a share? That way, you don’t have to look on with eager eyes at our Mo Fei’s songs, right?”

“……” Jian Chao has mixed feeling at this moment, bitter, embarrassed and helpless.

But in the face of Mo Xiaojuan’s provocation, she really has something to say, but she didn’t know if she should say it or not…
