Quang Le confirmed that he did not keep Phuong My Chi's salary while the female singer was still under his management company. |
What Phuong My Chi has is Phuong My Chi's.
* Hello singer Quang Le, after Phuong My Chi separated to work on her own, how do you see your adopted daughter change?
-Singer Quang Le: I feel very secure about Phuong My Chi because after Quang Le, she still has her family and loyal fans, the audience still loves her like before and her performance schedule is also very busy. In addition, Phuong My Chi has just received a film contract, I heard it's worth a billion dong because it's a movie in theaters, so she's very busy studying all sorts of things to suit the character. In addition, she also signed a contract for sitcoms, developing towards cinema, so when I called my daughter, she confided that she was very worried. When she steps into a new field, of course there is pressure, that's why I said, "Don't worry, you're fine. The audience loves you and you also acted very well in previous MVs, so there's definitely no pressure." In addition, Phuong My Chi now has a very good life, stable finances, not rich, not surplus, but stable. From grade 10 until now, she has paid tuition for international schools of over 200 million dong.

Quang Le still accompanies Phuong My Chi even though they are no longer in the same company. |
* Although you are no longer in the same company, do you still support your child in performing and professionally?
- Whenever my daughter needs me, I support her with all my heart because I have determined from the beginning that I do it for her and not for myself. Because Quang Le is old, he does not keep it for himself, he gives everything to his daughter. Everyone knows what kind of background Phuong My Chi comes from, but I do not lack anything, so whatever Phuong My Chi has is Phuong My Chi's.
*A few days ago, you posted a photo of yourself being intimate with your adopted daughter on Facebook. Are you afraid of receiving negative opinions when posting that photo at a time when public opinion is abuzz about the issue of adopted artists?
- This is not the only time I post a photo with Phuong My Chi. We always post photos on Facebook to remind ourselves that we still have each other.
The salary will be deducted for expenses such as plane tickets, management fees or travel expenses, but the child will receive everything, Quang Le will not keep any money. I also give the money to Ms. Thu to keep, I do not keep it. There are programs booked for Phuong My Chi, but I think the fee is too small so I do not take anything, the child accepts and sings herself.

Quang Le said that his manager and Phuong My Chi's mother discussed clearly before accepting the show for the female singer. |
* During the time Phuong My Chi was with your company, was the salary clearly discussed before each show?
- Yes. I have never bound a contract with my daughter, only agreed to support each other. For example, whenever my manager accepts a show for Phuong My Chi, she also consults with her biological mother, Vo Thi Huynh Thu. There are cases where even though the manager accepts the show, it does not fit with her schedule or her school schedule. At the same time, Chi's mother also has the right to receive her own show, so my manager and her mother always work together to finalize the schedule and balance the time appropriately.
Regarding money, the salary will deduct expenses such as plane tickets, management fees or travel fees, but the child will receive everything, Quang Le will not keep any money. I also give the money to Ms. Thu to keep, I do not keep it. There are programs booked for Phuong My Chi, but I think the fee is too small so I do not take anything, the child accepts and sings by herself. That is very normal. Only on large-scale shows will there be expenses, but for small shows, I do not deduct any expenses and let my daughter receive the full amount.
Has a show salary of over 100 million VND
* A source revealed that the salaries of hot child stars are up to 50-70 million VND. Do you feel this price is realistic?
- This number is very realistic, Phuong My Chi has sung at events worth over 100 million VND in Vietnam. Advertising events must pay the singer an appropriate salary, such as an opening sale or an exchange session. For example, a toothpaste company invites her to sing at an exchange event, the salary must be around 100 million VND. Before that, there was a company specializing in personal items, I know the salary was somewhere around 100 million VND, that is the information the manager shared with Quang Le.

Quang Le said Phuong My Chi once received a salary of about 100 million VND for an event. |
Singer Quang Le said: Phuong My Chi has sung at events worth over 100 million VND in Vietnam. Advertising events must pay the singer an appropriate fee, such as an opening date or an exchange session.
If you don't help anyone, it's normal for a girl to have 5-7 billion VND.
* What do you think when the audience compares the difference in salary management between you and your adopted daughter and between singer Phi Nhung and Ho Van Cuong?
- Actually, Quang Le doesn't know how much Ho Van Cuong's salary is. From then until now, I have never had a close relationship with Ho Van Cuong, only met him a few times in a few shows. Besides, I'm not too close to Phi Nhung, we are just colleagues who know each other, not close enough to share with each other every night or talk twice a month. That doesn't happen. When we met in shows, we just shook hands and greeted each other, so I don't dare to judge anything about Ho Van Cuong's problem.
* During the time you were still with your daughter, were you afraid of unclear rumors about the salary between the adoptive father and daughter?
- I adopted her because I love her voice, I want to honor her voice, her talent. It's as simple as that. I myself am also in the position of a producer, so when I see potential, I have to support it, because there are many talents who do not have a producer to support them, leading to them being overshadowed. At the same time, the path to the light will be very difficult, so when I see it, I support it, but whether I accept it or not depends on Phuong My Chi's fortune. Only when the family agrees, can I accept it, but if the first day I suggested it but the family of my adopted daughter did not accept it, then the happy encounter and marriage that day would not have happened today.

The male singer advised Phuong My Chi to open her own account when she turns 18. |
* After the controversy over artists' adopted children, if a child star wants to be adopted by Quang Le, what will you do?
- Children are fate, coming together is fate. Up to now, Phuong My Chi is a filial, polite daughter and loves Quang Le very much, loves him very much. Whenever talking to him, she worries about her father, asks about his health and tells him not to sing too much because he is old. I always remember those words of my daughter. No matter what happens in the future, I still have a child who I can visit from time to time, which is also fun.
* You shared that your adopted child's salary is very high but your life is only stable, not rich, not much left, while there are rumors that your child has enough to buy a villa. What do you think about this information?
- If Chi went to work and didn't help anyone and kept that money until now, it would be normal for her daughter to have 5-7 billion VND. But she has to pay a lot of expenses, including Chi's tuition from grade 10 until now, which she has to pay out of her own pocket. If her parents don't go to work, then whose money is the money for daily expenses? It's also the daughter's money. Therefore, we must understand that her parents also have to use that money to help her paternal and maternal relatives such as her aunts, uncles, and grandfathers, with many expenses. Such a talent, using that money not only for herself and her family but also for her relatives, her paternal and maternal relatives, I know that. Think about it, does Phuong My Chi still have any left over?
Every year, 6 months have to pay more than 100 million at a time, how can there be any surplus? It is enough to cover daily living expenses, but there is no surplus. Because my child has also bought a house, has to study and spend money every day. In addition, she has helped both sides of her family, not just once, but for many years, not just now. Therefore, I do not expect her to have much surplus. Besides, Chi's mother also keeps a separate bonus, and now that she is 18 years old, Quang Le reminded her daughter that she should have a separate account so that when she sings, she can withdraw a little to save for herself. Phuong My Chi said that she had that intention and wanted to open a separate account. That is the right thing to do.

Quang Le said Phuong My Chi has a stable life and is not rich as rumored. |
* During this epidemic season, what does Quang Le do to overcome the period of social distancing and not being able to go on stage?
- Now, I have a side job in real estate trading. When I can't sing, I also have a light job. For example, if there is a project that I feel is cheap, I will buy it, and after about 7 or 8 months the project will increase in price, then I will sell it to make a little profit. It's as simple as that.
* Are the clips you make on YouTube like "Quang Le sells banh u during the epidemic" for fun or are you also facing economic difficulties?
- I just did it for fun. Because I think the audience wants to see my personal moments besides the image of me on stage with a sad face all the time. When I filmed that clip, it was partly to follow the trend, partly because I wanted to save everyday moments for myself and the audience. So that when I get older, I can look back at myself as well as for those who want to learn about my personality. That's why the channelQuang Le Lifestylewas born. I have only made this channel for a month and already have tens of thousands of subscribers, which is an encouragement. And the channelQuang Le Officialis a music channel that has nearly 1 million subscribers.
- Thank you for sharing singer Quang Le!
