What did Phi Nhung's manager say about keeping Ho Van Cuong's salary for the past few years?

After Phi Nhung revealed that all of Ho Van Cuong's salary was kept by manager Diem Pham, public opinion expressed their reaction and disagreement with Phi Nhung and the manager keeping 100% of Ho Van Cuong's singing money.

Diem Pham - Phi Nhung and Ho Van Cuong's long-time manager - repliedon this matter.

"NO ONE IN THE WORLD IS STUPID ABOUT MONEY"

Public opinion is reacting strongly to the information that you and Phi Nhung have kept 100% of Ho Van Cuong's bonus and salary since 2016. What is the real motive behind keeping 100% of Cuong's singing money?

Nhung and I brought our child to Ho Chi Minh City a long time ago to feed and educate him, not just to let him sing. Does the public know how much Ho Van Cuong has to pay a year to study at an international school? International schools have a discount policy, but nowhere is it free.

No one knows how much money Cuong spent studying at Le Van Tam School for three years. Sister Nhung even invited teachers to her house to teach Cuong. If I were to tell those stories, some people would wonder: How much money is there to tell? I don't know how to please everyone.

Cuong and Cuong's parents are both kind and honest, but they are not stupid. No one in the world is stupid when it comes to money.

Manager Diem Pham said she just brought Ho Van Cuong's nephew to Ho Chi Minh City to raise.

Do you know about the poverty of Cuong's sister and their relatives in Tien Giang, and the dilapidated house down there?

The important thing now is that we have to protect Cuong, keep him in good spirits to study for the university entrance exam. The whole family wants to guide him to the right way of thinking. After the recent incident of leaked messages, I invited the police to investigate the matter. We want to clarify how Cuong was lured and threatened. The money issue is still there.

Phuong My Chi's parents were born and raised in the city, so they are active and know how to do anything for their child. Cuong's parents are from the countryside, simple and do not understand life here. They just want to make their son good. And they asked Nhung to raise him.

Ho Van Cuong's show acceptance and salary also make the audience wonder?

After finishing Vietnam Idol Kids 2016, Cuong only had a few brand events invited by his brother Truong Giang. In the following shows, Cuong always went with Phi Nhung. Wherever Nhung performed, she brought her adopted children along. I just want my children to perform to learn from their mother and uncles.

Cuong is the only child in the family, everyone has been taking care of him for the past 5 years. What is true is still true. It is also impossible to say that Cuong's parents do not have money. Cuong's parents still go back to their hometown to take care of their own affairs.

Cuong is in his teenage years, impulsive and rebellious. Knowing that he doesn't understand clearly, I forgive Cuong.

No one knew that Nhung and I adopted Cuong when he was not yet the champion of Vietnam Idol Kids 2016. Since Cuong was interviewed in the first round with Toc Tien and Van Mai Huong, he said he admired Phi Nhung. People in my company praised him for singing like Nhung. That's why we loved him and wanted to adopt him. After that, we went back to our hometown and took Cuong to Ho Chi Minh City to study.

We took Cuong in not to take him to sing but to worry about his future. Cuong and his parents look simple but they are not stupid when it comes to money.

Cuong's parents are still young and healthy and work to make a living, so what's wrong with that? If their son is a singer, then why are his parents doing nothing? For the past two years, if Cuong hasn't been singing, who will support him? Cuong's mother is like Phi Nhung's sister, helping her take care of the children at home. I'm the manager, I have to keep a record of all expenses, I can't "cover the whole sky with one hand".

People still suspect us of bullying and beating Cuong. We are still here, Cuong and his mother are with us. Cuong's nephew was also brought here to be raised by Nhung.

The six children that Ms. Nhung raised at the pagoda in Binh Phuoc are still there. If anyone has any doubts, just come and ask. Up until now, Ms. Nhung has helped the children with as much money as she had.

Ms. Nhung has been in the profession for 30 years, she knows how to live to keep her name. If Ms. Nhung is wrong, they will have to provide evidence and she will die. Here, everything is family business.

"WE ARE A FAMILY, NOT A COMPANY - SINGERS"

In every scandal that happened, Phi Nhung always pushed Ho Van Cuong out in front of public opinion, receiving criticism. For example, in the scandal before Tet, Phi Nhung also went on her personal page to list a series of Cuong's bad habits, this was considered a way to expose and negatively affect Cuong?

Sister Nhung had to speak up like that at the most. At that time, Cuong had changed, there were many things that made people unhappy. When Cuong was scolded by his mother, he would get angry, close the door, and lie down all day without going out.

Sometimes, the child neglects his studies, such as skipping school or being late to class. Unable to speak, Ms. Nhung goes online to write. From then on, unexpectedly, there were people who provoked and teased Cuong, affecting the relationship between the child and the family.

Ms. Nhung is a foster mother but teaches her children as strictly as her own. She believes that playtime, recess, eating, sleeping, and studying must be on time. In this case, Ms. Nhung's only mistake was to let people provoke Cuong.

Everyone kept talking about the video of Cuong and his parents, but behind it, did anyone know that Cuong's parents begged Nhung: "I love you, don't be angry with Cuong. Please teach and take care of Cuong for me." Did everyone know?

It's clear that in all the scandals, Cuong's image was not protected by you - the manager and Phi Nhung like many other showrunner - singer relationships. Don't you think you were wrong?

Of course I have to review myself to see if I did anything wrong. If I did something wrong, I have to correct it so that my child can understand me better. If I did something wrong, I have to give it up.

What will you and Phi Nhung do after this incident?

Between us and Cuong, it is not the relationship between a show producer and a singer, but that of relatives and family. Ms. Nhung raised and took care of Cuong's education. As for me and everyone in the company, each of us contributes a hand to help her. We all do it out of goodwill, helping Ms. Nhung, there is nothing wrong here./.
