It was a very happy meal, but Li Xiao also felt that he might have come too much recently and was a little tired of eating.
After all, eating 4 meals in a row in a week seems a bit outrageous.
After finishing the meal, he went to the back kitchen to say hello to everyone who had worked together before Li Xiao left with his mother.
However, we didn't go home immediately after leaving. Instead, we went to a nearby shopping mall to buy some scattered items needed for the New Year.
After that, he went to the New Year's flower market. Since the weather this year was quite good, Li Xiao found that most of the flowers seemed to be quite cheap, so he didn't think too much and just bought what he liked.
Although Liang Jinjian felt a little distressed when she saw it, she said a few words casually and found that it was of no use, so she shut her mouth after that.
After all, they are all adults. They should do what they should and should not do. She feels that her son should understand that she, the elders, can just say it once or twice, and what should be heard will be heard. If he does not want to listen, then just say it.
Doing it 10 times a hundred times is useless and will only annoy people.
Finally, we called three tricycles to bring all the flowers and bought New Year flowers. The originally monotonous green color screen instantly became colorful. Seeing the final product, Liang Jinjian, who originally thought it was a waste of money, stopped talking.
Only now did he remember that his family no longer lived in that dilapidated old house.
The newly bought villa for my son is so grand and beautiful. If I don’t buy a little more, it won’t look grand enough.
I thought that if my son didn't buy these flowers, others would laugh at my son for not decorating them when they saw the garden alone.
She was relieved in her heart. Fortunately, she didn't say too much just now and insisted on taking care of the child's decision, otherwise the joke would have been too big.
Time flies so fast, and Li Xiao has not continued to broadcast live outside in the past two days.
Even if you want to broadcast live, you should do it at home, cooking some simple dishes that are easy to make during the New Year, so that your viewers can have a chance to show off their talents at the annual New Year's Eve dinner.
The two live broadcasts a day only last about an hour each time, but the income is also quite good. He can earn 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a day, which is already very good for Li Xiao.
In the past two days of Maomao Live, Xuanwu called three more times. This time, Li Xiao went smoothly. Unfortunately, the two parties did not get what each other wanted.
After all, Mao Mao Live is the passive party now, and now it is he who unilaterally wants to sign a new contract with Li Xiao.
Li Xiao, on the other hand, has no problem with whether to sign a new contract or not. After all, more money and less money will not have much impact on the bottom line. After all, it is already enough now.
After all, if you just live broadcast like this now, you can get 30,000 or 40,000 people a day, and in a year, you can get a little over 10 million.
This income is too much for him now, so much that he doesn't even know how to spend it. He already has a house and a car, and he doesn't pursue any luxuries.
So his only demand was a one-year contract and a one-year non-compete agreement, but Mao Mao Live was unable to give it to him.
After all, there is no airtight wall in the world, and with Li Xiao’s concession this time.
Then other anchors will probably take this as a threat and want the same treatment. This is the reason why Mao Mao Live decisively refused.
The payment of liquidated damages accounts for more than 20% of the revenue of the Mao Mao Live platform. In other words, if the annual revenue of Mao Mao Live was 100 million, the host's breach of contract fees alone would be as high as 20 million.
.
But if the non-competition contract and employment contract only last for one year, then many new owners will not be willing to pay such an unjust amount of money.
Some anchors can even use up the rest of the contract period with a sluggish attitude. After all, a one-year contract will pass in the blink of an eye.
After the ongoing stalemate, Mao Mao Platform took the lead in transferring the old contract back to Li Xiao.
This is also the reason why Li Xiao's income suddenly increased to 30,000 to 40,000 yuan in the past few days, but he did not feel unhappy or unhappy about it.
After all, in the final analysis, it was actually his fault. After all, he had also learned about the contracts of other anchors. Compared with their five-year contracts, his two-and-a-half-year contract was indeed very loose.
Unfortunately, the demands of both parties could never be consistent, so Li Xiao neither chose to change jobs nor complained to the live broadcast platform, but continued to maintain the efficiency of live broadcasts twice a day.
After all, no one is wrong. What is wrong is that everyone is in the wrong position.
Xuanwu, who was far away in his hometown, watched Li Xiao broadcast with a smile, and the facial features on his face were already wrinkled.
Xuanwu's mother, who was standing by, saw her son's expression of being eaten up, frowned and said:
"I'm not talking about you. It's already New Year's Eve. Could you please stop doing your job in the company? You've been looking gloomy all day. I'll have to talk to you later when your father sees you."
Xuanwu could only nod helplessly and forcefully smile, but he felt that he had nowhere to vent the depression in his heart.
He has already asked seven or eight friends in the same industry, and there is actually no rumor that Li Xiao is looking for a new home, nor has he heard that any platform wants to poach him.
After all, food live streaming is a niche, with more than 10 million fans. It is not like those high-level players in video games, nor like those young ladies with super figures who can sing and dance, nor like those who make slanderous remarks all over the sky.
The wretched old man.
These people have a larger audience. It is normal for them to have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of fans. Of course, it is also normal for them to have moisture in them.
Therefore, Xuanwu can only come to one conclusion, that is, Li Xiao really has not found a home, and it is purely because he has been wild and free all his life that he is unwilling to sign a new contract.
However, this is the thing that troubles him the most. It would be okay if he really has a partner, but now he is unwilling to sign without a partner, which becomes evidence of his lack of ability.
His superiors have now made it clear to him that he will be observed for 3 months first. If Li Xiao does not leave after three months, he will be promoted back to the 50/50 B-level contract. But once Li Xiao leaves, Xuanwu will also pack up and leave.
people.
During the Chinese New Year, he was really devastated when he heard the news. After all, he had been working in Mao Mao Live for nearly 10 years. He never thought that his boss would kick him out if he really disagreed.
When he heard the news, he really wanted to leave. After all, he had been working in this industry for nearly 10 years.
Now, if you switch jobs from the big platform Maomao Live, you can probably go to some small platforms and become the director or deputy director of a certain department.
But when I think about it, the share of the anchors who have signed contracts with me will be 60,000 to 70,000 yuan a year, and if the Li Xiao in front of me changes his mind at any time, he will actually sign a new contract.
Then my year-end bonus will be doubled several times, to at least two to three hundred thousand a year. Then I will become the middle class, and buying a house in the capital will no longer be impossible.
Now his mentality is quite tangled. He doesn't want to stay with Li Xiao and worry about being fired at any time, but he is also afraid that if Li Xiao really signs the contract, the person who takes his place will be able to buy a Land Rover tomorrow.
So every time he sees Li Xiao's live broadcast, he is always on tenterhooks, fearing that he will say before the broadcast, today is my last day on Mao Mao, and the next time we meet, we will be on a certain platform.
That was to declare that his working career at Mao Mao Platform was completely over.
He never thought that his working life would be linked to an anchor.
...
Time came to the afternoon of New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye, and Li Xiao was busy in the kitchen with her mother.
There are a lot of dishes cooked today. Although there are only three people having New Year's Eve dinner tonight, according to tradition, it is 8 dishes and one soup.
After all, this tradition has not been interrupted even when the environment in Li Xiao's family was the worst. Of course, in the past, vegetarian dishes were mostly used to supplement the meal.
Now that the environment is better, there will be more varieties of dishes.
Looking at her son's sharp knife skills, Liang Jinjian was a little surprised. She didn't know when her son could actually cook, and he could do it so well.
Her jaw almost dropped to the ground as she watched the dishes appear from scratch one after another.
Although her own cooking skills cannot be said to be very good and she can only handle some ordinary home-cooked dishes, she still knows very well whether other people's cooking is good or not.
[Ginger Chicken], [Steamed Bass with Scallion Oil], [Garlic Shrimp], [Glutinous Rice Meatballs], [Osmanthus Spare Ribs], [Braised Pork Belly with Dried Bamboo Shoots], [Cheese Baked Lobster], [Emerald Cabbage], and finally...
There is [Fish Maw Chicken Soup].
Not to mention eating such rich dishes at home, it is not inferior even when serving guests in a large restaurant.
Li Jianguo also ate a pound when he saw the various dishes on the table. He had not helped in the kitchen just now, so when he suddenly saw such a large table of dishes, he was far more surprised than Liang Jinjian.
And he also clearly understands how high his wife's level is, after all, the few dishes he eats back and forth every day are either steamed meatloaf, steamed pork ribs, steamed chicken, or boiled cabbage hearts.
He was almost tired of eating such dishes. If his wife had such skills, how could she cook the same thing every day?
Since it's not his wife, it can only be his son who only knows how to cook instant noodles.
He couldn't help but feel a little emotional. He was still a person trained in a social university. He didn't expect that his son would grow so much after just working for more than a year.
Liang Jinjian served each of the three a bowl of soup from the kitchen, and Li Xiao also mixed a bottle of Feitian Moutai from the wine cabinet.
Seeing his son getting such expensive wine, Li Jianguo waved his hand quickly:
"My family doesn't need to drink these. This bottle costs thousands."
Li Xiao chuckled and said:
"You can drink as much as you like. It's only about two thousand yuan. Do you know how much I earned from live broadcasting for 2 hours just now?"
When he heard that the bottle of wine that his son had already opened cost more than 2,000 yuan, Li Jianguo's heart ached secretly.
Hiss, more than 2,000 yuan, which is less than half a month's salary. Listening to his son's tone, it's like opening a bottle of wine worth 200 yuan. This kid really doesn't regard money as money.
But after hearing this, he hesitated again. He already knew that it was difficult for his son to make money, but he still had no accurate idea of how much he could earn in these two hours. He hesitated and gave a number:
"Ten thousand dollars?"
This figure was quite good when he thought about it. After all, 10,000 yuan for two hours and more than 5,000 yuan for one hour.
In other words, his son can earn one month's salary in one hour. In his opinion, the figure he mentioned is already an exaggeration.
But Li Xiao shook his head with a smile and softly uttered two words:
"more than."
Hiss, the two of them gasped, it's more than 10,000 yuan? And judging from the tone, it's still a lot less.
Li Jianguo spoke boldly again:
"50,000 yuan?"
While speaking, he held out five fingers.
Li Xiao still shook his head, but this time he stopped letting his parents guess and said directly:
"I received 150,000 yuan in just two hours, but it is probably because of the New Year's Eve that there are so many. Normally it would be less, but there are still 10,000 to 20,000 yuan an hour."
"So you guys, you can eat when you should, and drink when you should. With your son's current ability, it is only a matter of time before he becomes financially free. Let alone a bottle of wine worth more than 2,000 yuan, even if a bottle of wine costs more than 20,000 yuan, Dad, you
You can drink if you want. My son will spend the money he earns. As long as you two are happy, nothing will matter."
Hearing Li Xiao say that he could earn 150,000 yuan in two hours, Li Jianguo immediately swallowed all the words he was trying to teach his son. After all, someone who earns more than 5,000 a month teaches someone who earns several million a month how to live.
Something seems inappropriate.
However, Liang Jinjian still reminded him:
"Although you are making a lot of money now, you still have to store up grain to prevent hunger and don't spend as much as you have. Do you understand?"
Li Xiao responded with a smile:
"Of course, that's what I'm worried about. I'm just telling you two not to be so frugal, spend what you need and eat what you need."
"Okay, okay, come on, celebrate the New Year today, don't talk about anything else, let's have dinner."
.....
It was a very enjoyable meal. Of course, there was a lot of leftover food, but I didn’t throw it away. Instead, I packed it all together and put it in the refrigerator so that I could continue to eat it after the second day of the Lunar New Year.
After the meal, fruits and melon seeds were served, and the three of them gathered together in the hall to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Many people think that people in the south do not watch the Spring Festival Gala, but this is not the case. Although it is not very good to watch, at least as far as Li Xiao's family is concerned, every Spring Festival Gala will not fail.
Of course, although Li Xiao was listening to the Spring Festival Gala, he was actually playing with his mobile phone.
Because I have become popular in Dongguan recently, some junior high school classmates and even elementary school classmates who I haven't contacted for nearly ten years have come to visit me. It's true that I am poor in the downtown area and no one cares about me, and rich in the mountains with distant relatives.
Some are just out of curiosity, while others have various intentions, either wanting Li Xiao to help with publicity, or wanting to get into the live broadcasting industry.
Of course, most people were dealt with by Li Xiao politely.
After all, we haven’t contacted each other for so long, and there are not many people he can call by their full names. He wants to help when he opens his mouth. In his opinion, he is really thick-skinned. From this to the other, you can guess that his character is probably not good.
Where to go.
However, there are also some people who had really good relationships with each other when they were students, and the other people did not ask him for help or borrow money, but because they lost contact, Li Xiao still occasionally chats with these friends.
Therefore, Li Xiao is really busy on New Year's Eve. Not only does he have to deal with the enthusiastic viewers on Mao Mao Live, but he also has to deal with friends and classmates who are familiar or unfamiliar.
It can be said that from sitting down to now, his fingers have not rested for half a minute.
After finally processing all the information, I was ready to stretch and eat some fruit, and the group lights came on again.
Moreover, it was a group for good friends. He quickly clicked on the group and it turned out that the monitor had sent a message.
He sat back down and clicked on the message.
[Happy New Year, thank you for your help some time ago. The operation of [Neighborhood] is much better than expected. Thank you very much. In the new year, I wish you smooth live broadcast, love, harmony, life and happiness.
.]
At first glance, this text message was different from those group messages, so Li Xiao quickly replied seriously.
[You’re welcome. How can you say so much thank you among friends? It’s really foreign. Thank you for your New Year blessings. I wish you the best in advance. In the new year, I will find the other half of my life. I will open more and more shops and smile always.
,A dream come true.】
After clicking send, Li Xiao put down her phone and ate the fruit.
On the other side, the squad leader sitting on the edge of the swimming pool didn't have much expression on his face, he was as calm as ever.
Seeing the screen of her phone light up, she quickly opened it and sighed when she saw the message from the other party.
His finger fell into the input box, and then he typed out a long list of messages, and then deleted them one by one. He watched the light of the phone change from bright to dim, and then completely extinguished.
She exhaled a long breath, stuffed the phone back into her bag, and kept it out of sight.
Chang Tianyu, who seemed to be playing with his mobile phone in the distance, noticed this scene and had serious thoughts.
Although he had never seen this expression on his second sister's face, he had seen it on the faces of his fair-weather friends.
Isn't this the expression of someone who wants to chase a girl but is unable or unable to chase her for various reasons?
Although he was a famous playboy, he was never a fool. He immediately thought of the guy he had met some time ago.
The anchor, who he thought was not famous, was really shocked when he checked it out.
He didn't expect that the other party was so popular in the Dongguan area. If he really had a conflict with him last time and he exposed it on the Internet, he would probably have to be scolded by his father again.
However, he also found out that the anchor did have a girlfriend, but the girlfriend was not his second sister.
This is a bit interesting. The last time he met the other party at [Keruyun], even if the other party moved out of the second sister, it seemed that they were just friends.
However, he was scolded by his second sister and even sued, so that he could only be grounded at home these days.
Therefore, judging from the second sister's level of concern, there is no doubt that she likes him.
Then can you do something small, such as reconciling with the other party? Tell him the news that your second sister likes the other party?
The second sister likes him, and with her as an insider, the little anchor should be able to catch him easily.
By then, as Yue Lao, will his family status improve?
After all, he was helping the two of them pull the red line, so they both had to be polite to him.
In his opinion, the second sister was worried about others gossiping, so she didn't dare to take action.
As for whether Li Xiao would agree if he told Li Xiao the news, he really hadn't considered this situation. After all, being able to marry the daughter of a big boss of a tens of billions group, would anyone refuse such a good thing?
No one can refuse such a pie falling from the sky. This is no longer a matter of years of less hard work, but a matter of less of a lifetime of hard work.
