I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

"What's the situation overseas?"

At this time, the Song family was only a few days away from the Chinese New Year, so Lin Hong naturally returned from overseas.

Although Song Fuquan is now an even more hands-off boss than before.

But I still pay close attention to the company's current situation and various businesses.

"We have established branches in Japan, Europe and the United States."

"What you said before is indeed very true. Compared to us, Xu Kong is even more radical."

Lin Hong opened her mouth and answered.

In fact, Fengge’s current overseas business can be said to be quite large in scale.

Correspondingly, Lin Hong's own workload is also not low.

But she enjoyed her own words.

After all, it was Lin Hong who was in charge when Fengge first tried to enter the overseas market.

During this period, there were almost always setbacks and failures. Now, under Xu Kong's arrangement, not only has there been an improvement, but it can even be said that considerable results have been achieved.

The global success of Squid! not only brought in huge cash revenue, but also helped their company gain a firm foothold in overseas markets.

Especially for Korea, after the broadcast of "Squid Game", there were many invitations for cooperation from various companies and platforms, and they were all big companies.

We even successfully sold the TV rights to Korea later on. Although the price was not very high, it was an unexpected surprise.

……

"This time, we have approved four dramas at once, and with the layout of the branch company in various aspects, the investment budget has exceeded 1 billion."

"And I guess a lot more will be thrown in later."

Lin Hong had to remind her.

Song Fuquan nodded. He knew all this.

Xu Kong makes money very quickly, but spending it is also terrifying.

However, even if all four dramas fail this time, at most the money earned from "Squid Game" will be spent, and even not all of it.

This is the main reason why Lin Hong had no objection to Xu Kong's radical plan.

Moreover, she has read all the scripts, and the possibility of all four dramas failing is too low.

In her opinion, all four dramas will definitely have a market.

As for what specific results can be achieved, although Lin Hong has done some research on overseas markets, she dare not make a definite judgment.

……

After finishing the business talk, Lin Hong asked:
"I heard that Xu Kong will come to our house to celebrate the New Year this year?"

Song Fuquan nodded.

"He is alone after all. He will be staying in Beijing for the New Year anyway, so why not ask him to come over and stay with us?"

Lin Hong nodded and did not object.

Although every time I saw Xu Kong, he always had a bad expression on his face since a long time ago.

But looking at the achievements Xu Kong has made over the years.

In fact, she had identified with Xu Kong very early on.

If Xu Kong and Youyou didn't have so many entanglements, Lin Hong's attitude would probably be much better.

But after all, this concerns Youyou's lifelong event, so it is impossible to agree so easily.

……

"Has Youyou told you about your relationship with Xu Kong?"

Lin Hong asked again.

Neither of them is a fool, and of course they know that there must be more to the relationship between Xu Kong and Song Youyou than that.

It can even be said that it was noticed a long time ago.

As for Song Fuquan himself, he has always had the attitude that as long as his daughter is willing, he has no objection.

Lin Hong had been on guard in various ways before.

But I couldn't resist Youyou who was eager to give it to me for free.

So I feel helpless about this.

……

"No."

"But let's not worry about their young people's affairs."

Song Fuquan replied with a smile.

After all, he definitely identified with the young man Xu Kong.

Otherwise, he would not have directly given most of Fengge's shares to Xu Kong, and then allowed Xu Kong to take over the entire company very smoothly.

Even though Zhu Changyun took away many old employees, as for the people left behind by Feng Ge, if Song Fuquan hadn't spoken up, it would be impossible for others to snatch the management rights from him even if they really had some ideas.

"That's easy for you to say!"

Lin Hong couldn't help but give Song Fuquan a cold look.

Sometimes she really doubted whether Youyou was her biological daughter.

This father is not worried at all.

……

"Youyou is already grown up, we can't always take care of her."

"And you know that once that girl decides on something, even if I object, it won't have any effect at all."

After hearing what Song Fuquan said, Lin Hong nodded helplessly.

Song Fuquan really couldn't control Song Youyou at all.

It's no longer just pampering, it's downright doting.

Since childhood, Song Fuquan has always been 100% supportive of Song Youyou for whatever she wanted or wanted to do.

They even try every possible means to help the other party complete the task.

Like when I went to Beijing Film Academy to study acting and become an actor.

Lin Hong opposed it in various ways.

In the end, Song Fuquan paved almost all the way for his daughter.

……

"Anyway, I still don't agree with developing so quickly for the time being."

"If Youyou and Xu Kongzhen openly reveal their relationship now, what will she do in the future? Will she become a housewife and take care of her husband and children?"

"Including Xu Kong himself. Although his current popularity and popularity mean that even if he has a relationship, it will not cause a particularly big impact."

"But they are both in their early twenties, which is still young in the entertainment industry."

Lin Hong wants to think more.

The reason why she did not object to the development of the relationship between Youyou and Xu Kong was mainly because of Xu Kong's talent.

However, he still opposed the two of them developing too quickly because Xu Kong himself was too outstanding.

Especially if there was a sudden news of a pregnancy-related marriage, Lin Hong would probably be very angry.

In her opinion, although she did not agree with her entering the industry at first, Youyou is indeed very talented in acting.

Moreover, it can be said that now is the rising period of my career, and I should not waste such precious time.

She knew Song Youyou, whom she had watched grow up, too well. If it were Xu Kong, the other person would definitely give up his career without hesitation.

Fortunately, at the moment, Xu Kong doesn't seem to have any intention of stopping Youyou from continuing to act.

They will also tailor-make corresponding roles and scripts for the other party.

……

"Oh, just let it be."

Song Fuquan still has the same attitude.

Lin Hong felt that she and the other party had absolutely no way to continue the conversation on this matter.

I couldn't help but feel a little angry.

"Compared to the affairs of these young people, I have more important things to do..."

Song Fuquan was obviously a little hesitant.

But he finally spoke.

Lin Hong didn't care, but asked subconsciously:

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the company?"

"Our cash flow should be quite healthy."

"Is it because of the problem with the partner?"

……

Lin Hong guessed, but all the possibilities she could think of were denied by Song Fuquan who shook his head.

"neither."

Lin Hong was really a little surprised at this time, mainly because she saw a nervous look on Song Fuquan's face.

Over the years, except for the time when he started his own business when he was young, Song Fuquan has been in a very relaxed state since Fengge's development got on track.

So what is he nervous about now?

Before Lin Hong could be confused for long, Song Fuquan finally spoke.

"Do you have time tomorrow?"

The sudden question made Lin Hong stunned for a moment, but then she thought of some possibilities. She began to hesitate when speaking.

"Have……"

After a while, Lin Hong finally answered.

"Since you have time before the holiday, I think we should go get the certificate..."

……

Lin Hong was completely speechless this time.

The whole person had an expression of surprise.

"Don't get me wrong, I also consider your wishes. If you don't want to..."

Song Fuquan didn't finish his words, and this time it was Lin Hong who interrupted him directly.

"I am willing!"

Lin Hong felt so complicated at this moment that she didn't know how to describe it.

The main reason is that she has been waiting for this day for many years.

I may have thought about it often at first, but later I just gave up.

Now, there is no such idea at all.

I think it's good to maintain the status quo.

Who knew that Song Fuquan would suddenly say it.

……

In fact, the two of them have always had a tacit understanding towards each other.

Considering that Linhong is so old and still unmarried, it would be too hypocritical for Song Fuquan to say that he doesn't know why.

It’s just because after so many years, what Youyou’s mother said when she passed away, that she would not remarry, did make him persevere.

But in fact, Song Fuquan certainly knew why Lin Hong did everything for him, including her contributions to the entire Fengge.

"But...but for something like this, shouldn't I ask Yuyu?"

Lin Hong was of course happy in her heart, but after she came to her senses, she couldn't help but think of Youyou.

"I don't care about her business. This is between us. She doesn't need to agree."

"And Youyou will probably be very happy to hear this news."

Song Fuquan replied with a smile.

After all, Song Youyou's mother passed away when she was very young.

In addition, Song Fuquan was almost always busy with his own company's affairs at that time.

My daughter has always been taken care of by Lin Hong.

If it was anyone else, Youyou would probably have a big reaction, but if it was Linhong, in fact, if Song Fuquan hadn't been unable to get over it in his heart, Youyou would probably have changed her mind.

……

"No, I still have to ask her first."

Compared with Song Fuquan's indifference, Lin Hong is very cautious.

"I'll go find her now..."

Lin Hong said this and stood up.

But he was quickly stopped by Song Fuquan.

"We've been here for so many years, there's no need to rush for a day or two."

Lin Hong felt a little embarrassed, which was unusual for her.

She spoke as if she was in a hurry to marry Song Fuquan.

……

"I mean, why don't you just not go back today..."

"It's so late now. Wait until Youyou comes back tomorrow. Then you can talk to her yourself."

Lin Hong understood what Song Fuquan meant.

In fact, ever since the other party took the initiative to ask him out last time, Lin Hong could also feel that Song Fuquan was no longer deliberately keeping a distance from her like before.

But it is only limited to going out and playing together on weekdays.

Although Lin Hong often comes to the Song family, she is even more familiar with everything in this family than Song Fuquan and his daughter.

But because I knew Song Fuquan's attitude clearly, I almost never spent the night here for all these years.

Even during the Chinese New Year, after eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, we still have to go back.

When she was a child, Youyou always cried and asked her to stay.

Although Lin Hong couldn't bear it, she would eventually regain her sanity and leave quietly.

……

"Ah."

Lin Hong finally responded in a low voice.

"Then I'll make dinner."

Song Fuquan was obviously very happy.

But before he could stand up, Lin Hong was pulled away by someone.

"Forget it, I'll do it."

Lin Hong is not very confident about Song Fuquan's cooking skills.

"Then I'll help you."

Song Fuquan subconsciously followed with a smile.

……

"Youyou, why are you so happy?"

Song Youyou, who did not return home at night, told Song Fuquan that she had gone to her college classmate's place.

But in fact, of course, I stay here with Xu Kong.

Hearing Xu Kong's question.

She then spoke:
"My dad finally confessed his feelings to Sister Hong!"

Xu Kong was stunned for a moment.

Xu Kong had heard about the story of the previous generation from Song Youyou before.

"You advised?"

Xu Kong knew that there was a high probability that Song Youyou was involved.

The most important thing is, although they don't meet often, he feels that this is Song Fuquan's character. If his daughter hadn't said something on her own initiative, the other party would not change so easily after so many years.

……

"and many more……"

Song Youyou looked at the message sent by her father and was visibly stunned for a moment.

"It's not a confession, it's a proposal?"

"Oh my god, how come my dad, who is such a straight man, just told Sister Hong that he was going to get the marriage certificate?"

Song Youyou couldn't help but cover her forehead.

It was obvious that he was very worried about his father who was not doing well enough.

"It's only Sister Hong who agreed directly despite being so insincere."

Xu Kong didn't think there was anything wrong.

Song Fuquan and Lin Hong are of the same age, and have spent most of their lives in each other's company.

If you really want to break through that layer of window paper, it would only take a word.

Besides, they are not young anymore, so there is no such thing as a honeymoon period.

A marriage certificate is just to ensure that you can continue to accompany each other through the rest of your life in the future.

……

"Forget it. I've thought about it. If you were the one who suddenly told me this, I would probably agree..."

Although Youyou is love-brained, she still has a clear understanding of herself.

Xu Kong was a little hesitant to speak.

There is no way, it is my own choice, and I have to go on no matter what the result is.

"By the way, I have to go home tomorrow."

"My dad said Sister Hong wanted to ask for my opinion in person, but she probably didn't know that I actually knew it a long time ago, and I was even the biggest contributor!"

Youyou said happily.

Xu Kong had no objection to this.

But he suddenly remembered.

Before, although I knew that Lin Hong was indeed very special and although she was not from the Song family, the relationship was still there.

But at this time, the other party can be considered as the future mother-in-law in a completely legitimate sense.

A wry smile.

Xu Kong suddenly began to regret it.

Shouldn’t I choose to follow Youyou to the Song family to celebrate the New Year?
