Chapter Five hundred and eighty-eight I am depressed every day, every day is uncomfortable!
Joaquin.
The first half of this year went by in a hurry.
For Joaquin, the performance in the first half of this year was really mediocre, with nothing worth mentioning.
There has never been anyone who stands out among the newcomers. I had high hopes and found several famous artists to create a new album for Juno. After it was released, the response was mediocre, not to mention that it was not as good as Zhao Xiaohan, who became an instant hit with "Remote".
, even the album sales of other emerging singers cannot compare with...
Although it is not a loss, it is mediocre and falls within the range of performance that an ordinary newcomer should have.
Other veteran artists also participated in various variety shows and commercials tepidly. Although they were able to maintain a balance between their popularity and various external resources, they did not have any explosive points.
Overall, Joaquin was still in a dormant period throughout the first half of the year, and this dormant period seemed very long. Although it was making steady money, there was still something missing after all.
Xu Cancan shook his head slightly after reading the report for the first half of the year.
He knows that this is an unavoidable situation after a company develops to a certain level.
The company has a lot of resources, but there are never many top-level resources, and it is impossible for all of these resources to be concentrated on one person. With so many people in the company, many times it is necessary to make trade-offs...
The Voice runner-up Juno…
After seeing this newcomer, Xu Cancan felt a little disappointed. The company had given him enough resources, but...
The performance is still very unsatisfactory.
There is no harm without comparison.
Xu Cancan also knows that he cannot be so demanding on newcomers.
People like Zhao Xiaohan who can compose lyrics and music for their first album, and who can become popular based on the quality of their work, are very rare in the entire entertainment industry...
You mean Lu Yuan?
All right!
Lu Yuan is really not a human being.
He is a monster.
Lu Yuan...
When the midnight bell rang, Xu Cancan rubbed his eyes.
She didn't know why she thought of Lu Yuan and his company again.
While Joaquin was developing slowly, Lu Yuan's "remote" entertainment was growing like crazy.
There are very few artists in Lu Yuan's company, and until now it is still like a family workshop.
but……
This company...
It’s too weird!
Xu Cancan has the final say!
Suddenly I was a little shocked.
Each of the several artists in Lu Yuan's company seems to have top-notch resources, and each of them seems to have the potential to hit the hot spots in the entertainment industry.
Xu Cancan shook his head.
I couldn't help but sigh.
But, at this moment...
Her cell phone rang.
When I saw the number, my breath suddenly stopped.
What comes to mind?
The caller was none other than Lu Yuan.
"Hello……"
"Hey Mr. Xu...you haven't gone to bed yet."
"Go to bed soon."
"Oh, Mr. Xu, I'm sorry for calling you so late. Actually, I just wanted to talk to you..."
"Let's talk? Mr. Lu, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Lu Yuan called Xu Cancan in the middle of the night...
It's this time again, it's this point again, and at the same time, Lu Yuan's voice seems to have a sense of longing that makes Xu Cancan's heart beat.
Xu Cancan suddenly became serious.
"Mr. Xu...I have an idea!"
"What's the idea?"
"Mr. Xu, I think the artists under the entertainment company can be called products. We make money by relying on these products. At the same time, I think the most important thing for an entertainment company is to cultivate and expose new people... who have just debuted.
Newcomers often lack connections, lack of exposure, and at the same time, lack of support. Over time, newcomers will become disappointed with the entertainment industry. After this mentality appears..."
"..."
On the other end of the phone, Lu Yuan chattered endlessly with Xu Cancan about a lot of problems and difficulties about newcomers and artist exposure. Xu Cancan kept listening, and the more she listened, the more strange she felt.
What does Lu Yuan want to do?
Should I come here in the middle of the night to complain, or should I teach myself a lesson?
As the person in charge of such a large company, why would I not understand these things?
"At the same time, I feel that many times, some external help and publicity are needed..."
"Lu Yuan! You have said so much, what do you want to do?" Xu Cancan felt helpless when she heard Lu Yuan's tendency to talk at length again, and then she shook her head.
"Oh, oh, Mr. Xu, let's get back to the topic, we are childhood sweethearts, right?"
"Forget it..." Xu Cancan felt impatient. After hearing the words Lu Yuan, his heart suddenly tightened again, and his body couldn't help but tremble. At this moment, countless memories of the past and present appeared in his mind.
Lu Yuan's memory.
he!
What to do?
What on earth is he going to do when he calls me so late and talks about these issues? Isn't he afraid...
"Mr. Xu, let me tell you, in fact, you have always been in a very important position in my heart. Your position is unique and irreplaceable... Although I didn't recognize you before, my memory gradually became clearer.
From now on, I remember everything now. That year, I..."
"..." Lu Yuan chattered on to other places, mixed with a memory from time to time.
The memory gradually became clearer with Lu Yuan's voice.
Xu Cancan was silent, but his nose was sore.
At this moment, she had an inexplicable expectation, and there was also a little fear in the expectation.
What does he want to do...
Does he want it?
Could it be...
this……
He had just officially announced his love to Wang Jinxue, and now he...
But……
this……
"It is precisely because of our relationship that I care about you Joaquin all the time. I know that Joaquin must also have encountered a series of problems that have been exposed. Therefore, after my hard work and reflection these days, I finally let me
Our team has built a "remote" live broadcast platform. I hope that we can establish some in-depth cooperation based on our friendship. I formally invite your company team to join our "remote" platform. Our platform will provide a lot
High-quality publicity and many exposure packages..."
"At the same time, I think our "remote" entertainment has another advantage, that is, it is China's first professional video platform focusing on live broadcasting. It is different from the live broadcast rooms of those video websites in many ways, and it also has many interactions...
…”
"Lu Yuan! Did you hit me with all the advertisements in the middle of the night?" Xu Cancan took a deep breath, and his expression instantly became extremely cold.
That trace of emotion, that trace of expectation, that trace of inexplicable guilt all disappeared at this moment!
"No, no, no, this is not an advertisement, this is cooperation. Really, please believe me, this is good for you! Really, I can open VIP privileges for you and give your company's artists a recommendation spot on the homepage, Xu
Anyway, really, I think of you because we have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, so I thought of you as soon as the platform was established. Most people, I won’t tell them..."
"..."
"Crack!"
"Hello, hello?"
"..."
Xu Cancan hung up the phone.
However, after hanging up the phone, Lu Yuan called her again.
"Lu Yuan! I'm going to sleep!"
"Mr. Xu, I am very sincere... I hope you will not reject me."
"Lu Yuan, how are you doing in Hollywood?"
"Mr. Xu, let me tell you the truth. My life is very difficult now. Hollywood is blocking me and is very xenophobic. I am struggling now. Moreover, the investment I made before has gone too far and I can no longer take it back.
There is a big problem in terms of funding. If the capital chain collapses, I will not be able to hold on... I have insomnia and depression every day, and I have to rely on hypnosis almost every day to sleep.
, now I am just like a gambler, hoping not to lose everything..."
"Okay, okay, don't be miserable, tell me how you want to cooperate."
Lu Yuan's originally passionate voice on the other end of the phone changed.
Suddenly, he became filled with runny nose and tears, and his voice even contained a great sense of sadness and despair.
If Xu Cancan didn't know the situation of Lu Yuan's company, he might have been infected by Lu Yuan's misfortune.
After hearing half of it, she really couldn't stand it anymore and finally shook her head!
"Oh oh oh, you heard me, it's actually very simple..."
………………………………
"Remote" office.
After Lu Yuan heard Xu Cancan's agreement, a bright smile appeared on his face.
If we can cooperate with Xu Cancan's Joaquin, as long as there is a traffic internet celebrity like Wei Lai or Han Lu, this live broadcast platform can increase its popularity.
You said they are good at gaining popularity and good at management?
What a good thing!
No matter how false the data is, as long as the gimmick is big enough, it can always attract a wave of people, right?
The traffic era is coming, although this era will not last long, but...
It’s okay to seize this era, right?
After calling Xu Cancan, Lu Yuan called An Xiao again.
"Hello……"
"Lu Yuan, what are you doing if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?"
"Cough, cough, An Xiao, I want to collaborate with you on a project. Actually, I think..."
"Is it something about your live streaming platform?"
"Ah? You know?"
"Tomorrow you ask Wu Tingting to give the contract to my agent. If there is no problem, I will sign it. From now on, call me during the day. I want to go to bed for beauty sleep at night..."
"oh."
"Crack."
An Xiao's sudden success made Lu Yuan uncomfortable for a while.
He couldn't spend the money and other things he had been holding back for a long time...
at last……
He looked at the time...
He suddenly realized that it seemed really weird to call someone in the middle of the night...
Everyone is so busy, who can treat themselves like a night owl?
Sin, sin.
Lu Yuan subconsciously looked at a large list of "key customers".
He carefully marked it.
He even organized a set of words to sell himself in his mind, as well as some inspiring cooperation plans...
Lu Yuan did quite well in his homework.
etc!
Why do I feel so much like a pimp telemarketer now?
this……
Lu Yuan was stunned.
"bite."
Just when Lu Yuan was about to yawn and get ready for bed, his phone vibrated.
He looked down.
Then my phone prompted me that my company account had an extra billion yuan.
Lu Yuan looked at the transfer person and saw the words Wang Jinxue.
He was suddenly startled.
He then called Wang Jinxue.
Then……
He saw the phone ringing outside the door.
He opened the door and saw Wang Jinxue, who was supposed to go back to his villa in Hangzhou to sleep, standing silently outside the door.
"Jinxue, you... how long have you been waiting outside the door?"
"Not long ago, I just arrived."
"Jinxue, you...didn't you go to sleep in the villa?"
"I can't sleep today. After thinking about it, I might as well come back and sleep." Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan and just watched quietly.
"Jinxue, what's going on in the company account..." At this moment, Lu Yuan had no other obscene things in his mind, but looked at Wang Jinxue in confusion.
"I recently learned that you are short of money, and I still have some money left. You can use it first. I don't want you to call other people around, and I don't want you to beg anyone... You don't have to do this at all. If
If it's not enough, I will find a way..." Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan with a serious expression. Although she kept calm, she looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of distress in her usually indifferent eyes.
In fact, she had been standing outside the door of Lu Yuan's office.
When she heard that Lu Yuan was having trouble talking to Xu Cancan on the phone, she felt as if her heart was knotted up.
At that moment, she wanted to rush into the office and hang up Lu Yuan's phone.
However, she can't do that.
Because she knew that this would disturb Lu Yuan.
So, she just kept waiting outside the door.
he!
Why didn't you ask her if you were short of money?
Is she not short of money?
"I didn't ask anyone." Lu Yuan was a little moved, but still shook his head: "I'm just integrating my own resources now... and pulling them into our "remote" platform..."
"Lu Yuan, I understand, but I don't want you to be alone, and I don't want you to bow your head and say good things to anyone for money. If you need money, just tell me, I still have
A little money...although it's not much, you can use it anytime you want."
"Uh... Jinxue, don't be so sensational. My nose feels a little uncomfortable. This doesn't fit in with your aloof persona..."
