I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 68: The company and the landlord's attempt to retain Lao Jiang! How can Shanghai retain Lao Jiang?

When Jiang Chen was live streaming on Penguin yesterday, there were more than 110,000 people online in the live streaming room, at least half of whom were locals from Shanghai!
Plus the tens of thousands of people who came to watch Jiang Chen’s performance!
Jiang Chen’s influence in Shanghai is already very high.

In addition, in today's era of high-speed Internet, any information, once it becomes popular, will spread faster than you can imagine.

In a few days!
Jiang Chen has become a singing host known to most people in Shanghai.

Most people know that a super talented original singing host has appeared in Shanghai. He sings a new song every day and is simply invincible.

But such a super anchor is about to leave the Magic City!
This made Jiang Chen's popularity in the Magic City rise again.

because.

Many workers in Shanghai really see their own shadows in Jiang Chen, and many people who listen to his songs see their own dreams in Jiang Chen.

Therefore, Jiang Chen's final farewell performance in Shanghai immediately attracted the attention of many people!
There has been a wave of enthusiasm on major social media.

"There is only life in the Magic City, but no dreams. How can we keep Jiang?"

"If I had the ability of Lao Jiang, I would also leave the Magic City and go see the world."

"If it's not for living, who would want to be crowded here with more than 20 million people?"

"Hurry, hurry, this is my life."

"I really cried when I heard about the horse-herding city. The workers' suitcases are only filled with life, and there is no room for distant places."

“This is the first time I’ve found such a treasure anchor!”

"Modu, why can't Lao Jiang stay?"

"Don't go, Lao Jiang. I am willing to marry you."

……

Han Qing flipped through a few pages and showed Jiang Chen how popular he was in Magic City.

Wherever there are people from Shanghai gathering, there are a lot of posts and videos discussing Jiang Chen.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is the most popular person in the entire Magic City right now.

Jiang Chen read some of them and was very happy to get recognition from so many people.

Buzz!
At this time, the phone rang.

Jiang Chen took a look and found that it was Zhang Yang, the manager of the company he used to work for, so he answered the call immediately: "Hello, Manager Zhang!"

Zhang Yang was sitting in the office at this time, and said in a complicated tone: "Jiang Chen, I didn't realize you were so talented before."

Jiang Chen knew that Zhang Yang must have seen the information about him. After watching his video, he smiled and said, "Manager Zhang, you are joking. These have nothing to do with work. It's okay to find out."

The ability to sing and write songs is probably not helpful for programming.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Of course it's useful. The president just asked me to have a chat with him. He wanted me to persuade you to come back."

Jiang Chen laughed: "I won't write code anymore. I have finally regained some hair volume in the past few days."

Han Qing, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this.

Zhang Yang: "The company wants you to come back, of course not to write code. Instead, you want to work as a senior manager and partner in the publicity department, and also be the image spokesperson for our company. We will give you an annual salary of 1.5 million! And there will be no restrictions on your live broadcasting and other business. How about it? You just need to announce that you have rejoined the company, and then take some promotional photos. You will be paid 1.5 million a year, and the contract will be for two years. If the cooperation is pleasant within two years, you can renew the contract when it expires."

Jiang Chen: "The company has started to lay off employees, and you're still spending so much money to invite me back?"

Zhang Yang: "The company's layoffs don't mean there's no money. You know that. It's just a contraction of business scope. The profitable businesses are still making money. I'm just a messenger. You can make your own decision."

Jiang Chen: "Then please help me reject it. I will leave the Magic City tomorrow, and I want to leave cleanly without any ties."

Zhang Yang: "Don't you have any thoughts about Shanghai? Many Shanghai people are asking you to stay. If you can stay, Shanghai officials may help you promote it. After all, you are famous for your talent and strength, and your image is also very positive. When the time comes, you will be promoted as the representative of Shanghai's dream, and maybe you will be given a talent introduction quota, and you will be helped to settle down and get a house in one step!"

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Forget it, I don't dare to have that kind of dream."

Zhang Yang: "Okay, I get it. It seems that you have made up your mind to leave." Jiang Chen said softly: "I just want to go around and have a look. I am already 30 years old. If I don't go out and have a look, I may not be able to walk after I retire."

Zhang Yang: "Are you talking about me?"

Jiang Chen: "Hahaha, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about all of you!"

Zhang Yang: "Hey, I envy you so much. Who doesn't want to go to faraway places? I won't say much. I wish you a safe journey!"

Jiang Chen: "Thank you, Manager!"

hang up the phone.

Jiang Chen looked a little emotional. He had left several work groups on the day he resigned, so he didn't know the company's current situation.

Just after hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen received another message from the landlord: "Xiao Jiang, I didn't expect you to be so capable! But, can you stay? If you stay in Shanghai, my house is free for you to live in. You can stay as long as you want. The rent, water, internet and network fees are all waived."

Jiang Chen didn't expect that the landlord would actually take the initiative to send a message to keep him, and was so generous that he promised to let him live in the house forever for free!
However, the house was only about ten square meters, and it was difficult to turn over on a single bed, and two people could not stand in the room.

Even if he really stayed in the Magic City, Jiang Chen couldn't live there.

Therefore, Jiang Chen quickly replied to the landlord: "Thank you, landlord, but no thanks, I really want to walk around!"

Landlord: "That's a shame. I just saw your performance video this morning. It was really great! Next time you come to Shanghai, I'll treat you to a meal."

Jiang Chen: "Thank you. I'm sorry for taking care of me these past few years."

Landlord: "It's nothing special. Your rent supports our family. I should be thanking you."

Jiang Chen was silent for a moment. It was the first time he met such a polite and genuine landlord.

He has met many other local landlords. Although they don't make things difficult for tenants, they have a bad attitude towards tenants and act condescending. They collect rent and think they are doing you a favor by giving you a house to live in.

They use the rent from tenants to support their families or spend it lavishly, but they do not treat these foreign tenants as human beings.

Such landlords can be found in several first- and second-tier cities.

This was the first time Jiang Chen had seen a landlord thank his tenants like this. Of course, maybe it was just because he was famous now, so he immediately replied: "Hahaha, no need to thank me, we each take what we need, no one owes anyone anything! So, there's nothing to thank me for."

Landlord: "Yes, that's right. I wish you a safe journey. I will watch your live broadcast every day! I look forward to your farewell performance today."

Jiang Chen: "Thank you."

After finishing the chat with the landlord, Jiang Chen originally wanted to delete the landlord when he left tomorrow, but now he no longer has the mind to do so. It is okay to keep in touch with such a landlord.

Seeing that Jiang Chen had ended the chat, Han Qing suggested, "Jiang Chen, you don't have a social account to communicate with everyone. I suggest you register a Weibo account and occasionally share and publish your information on it so that it will be easier for everyone to understand."

Jiang Chen shook his head: "I'm too lazy to do this!"

Han Qing: "Let me help you. This is my job."

Jiang Chen: "Then you do it!"

Han Qing happily started to help Jiang Chen register a Weibo account, her heart full of surprise. Jiang Chen even let her run such an external social account, which must mean he trusted and relied on her extremely.

In this way, Jiang Chen will be unable to leave her in the future.

Han Qing quickly started registering an account.

Jiang Chen looked at the data of Penguin Music!
Once you open the backstage, there is still a long string of numbers behind each song.

Surprise flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes again.

The number of new songs today exceeded that of yesterday and the day before yesterday, which was beyond his expectations.

The popularity brought by the live performances and today’s outdoor live broadcasts is still brewing and exploding.
