Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 291 The three best friends hug each other and feel comfortable
The director has actually made it very clear that Zheng Jiamin has been spotted by the entertainment company under the platform.

It means signing her and promoting her.

If she is willing to sign, it is possible that the only newcomer position among the first, second and third place teams will be reserved for her.

To put it bluntly, it is an internal decision.

If she is unwilling to sign, she may not go far in this show.

It seems that the right to choose is given to Zheng Jiamin, but in fact it is forcing her to compromise with capital.

Liu Shuyun and her looked at each other for a moment, and both were silent.

Fell on the sofa in the karaoke room.

Before, I had only heard that unspoken rules were very common in this circle, and in a narrow sense, I thought it was about tricking pretty girls into having sex. This was the first time I had seen this kind of thing.

Just when he became popular on the Internet and was at his happiest, entertainment capital poured a bucket of cold water on his head.

Zheng Jiamin clenched her fists, suddenly sat up and said, "I'm going to expose them!"

Liu Shuyun was startled.

"Keep your voice down, Jiamin, the director isn't far away." Liu Shuyun analyzed, "This is the most undesirable approach.

Putting aside whether you can make some waves, if you do this you will offend the platform and the capitalists, and you will not be able to survive in this industry.

Those seniors who admire and support you will also actively avoid you.

Your dream is completely shattered."

Zheng Jiamin knew these consequences in her heart, but she only signed with Jiang Beicheng's company, only made money for Jiang Beicheng, and only trusted Jiang Beicheng.

"Are they better than President Jiang?"

Zheng Jiamin looked at Liu Shuyun. Liu Shuyun shook his head slightly, picked up his phone and took a look. He had just sent a WeChat message to Jiang Beicheng, but he had not replied yet.

If Jiang Jiang knew about this, he would probably have a headache too, right?

The iQiyi platform has a huge influence, and the major shareholder behind it is Baidu.

Jiang Jiang is already the most powerful person they have ever met, but they are not sure whether Jiang Jiang can defeat the platform?
Seeing Liu Shuyun's uncertain look, Zheng Jiamin roughly guessed the other party's strength.

If she signed, she would be sorry for Jiang Beicheng, who had created a media company specifically for her.

If she didn't sign, she would feel sorry for Jiang Beicheng. She wouldn't be able to realize her dream, and her commercial value would be greatly reduced. Jiang Beicheng had spent so much money to get her to participate in this show, and she definitely couldn't pay it back.

"If this matter will cause trouble for Mr. Jiang, we won't bother him. We'll just go as far as we can." After careful consideration, Zheng Jiamin shook Liu Shuyun's hand and smiled, "At worst, I can go back to sing at your place."

Liu Shuyun looked at Zheng Jiamin, and it was hard to see a smile on her face.

She realized how important Jiang Beicheng was to her, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was her spiritual pillar.

Nodding to Zheng Jiamin, "Okay, I already owe Jiang Jiang anyway, so it doesn't matter if I owe one more."

Zheng Jiamin nodded and continued practicing singing.

But no matter what the result is, I have tried my best, and my friends around me have also tried their best.

Even if she lost to unfairness, she had to leave with dignity and sing every next song well.

……

After Jiang Beicheng finished the meeting at the company, he returned to the office and took another look at Liu Sanmei'er's message.

I guess Liu Sanmei should have also discovered that it was the platform that was using Zheng Jiamin for marketing behind the scenes.

This is not a good thing.

Jiang Beicheng called Lao Lang and the others to find out.

Lao Lang did not hide it and said that the platform is optimistic about Zheng Jiamin and hopes that she will sign a contract with the platform. If she does not sign, it may affect her subsequent competitions.

It's said very cryptically.

Jiang Beicheng understood what he meant.

Now it’s time for entertainment capital to enter the market.

It's not just a music competition show.

Jiang Beicheng drank a cup of coffee and called Shen Jun, asking her to charter a plane and fly to Beijing.

Sisters Zheng Jiamin and Liu Shuyun are too weak in front of their opponents.

I can imagine how weak and helpless the two best friends are at this moment.

Go over and handle this matter properly.

By the way, take a look at the decoration of Beicheng Hotel Beijing Branch.

Before leaving, Jiang Beicheng made an appointment with Liu Tao, vice president of iQiyi, to have dinner together.

Back when they were in Sanya, Jiang Beicheng saved his son who fell into the water, and the couple owed him a big favor.

After entering the entertainment industry, Lian Capital also had some private contact with iQiyi, looking for possible cooperation in film and television production, investment, etc.

The two sides still maintain close contact.

Given these two relationships, iQiyi should give him face.

This face definitely means not only respecting Zheng Jiamin's choice, but also treating Zheng Jiamin's game fairly.

In addition, Jiang Beicheng also wants to try to poach this former gold medal agent.

Liu Tao readily agreed to Jiang Beicheng's request, saying that they had waited too long for this meal.

I always wanted to thank Jiang Beicheng but couldn't find the opportunity.

Jiang Beicheng finished dealing with the matters in Jiangnan City and took Shen Jun to the capital.

The Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Qianmen.

After taking a nap, I asked Shen Jun to prepare the car to go to the film and television center.

"She's been practicing! The little girl is working very hard." Instructor Zhang Weiwei came out to pick up Jiang Beicheng, and sighed, "It's too difficult to change your fate in today's society."

Jiang Beicheng patted Zhang Weiwei on the shoulder: "You have done enough."

"Mr. Jiang, our abilities are limited." Zhang Weiwei prepared to knock on the door.

Jiang Beicheng stopped his hand and said, "Finish listening to this song."

Zheng Jiamin's singing voice came out, which was very catchy.

The first time Jiang Beicheng met her, he was attracted by her singing.

If Zheng Jiamin didn't have a charming voice, she might not have become such a close friend with Jiang Beicheng.

The ending sound trembles.

Zhang Weiwei gently pushed the door open, and Jiang Beicheng smiled and applauded, "Great progress!"

Liu Shuyun and her best friend Zheng Jiamin stared at Jiang Beicheng in a daze, feeling extremely excited.

Zhang Weiwei also noticed it and took the initiative to avoid it, "Mr. Jiang, you guys chat."

I took them with me when I left.

"Jiang Jiang~"

Liu Shuyun excitedly rushed towards Jiang Beicheng, "Why are you here?"

Jiang Beicheng looked at Zheng Jiamin.

Zheng Jiamin was also very excited, but she couldn't show as much intimacy as her third sister.

"Jiang..., Jiang Jiang~"

Face to face, they called out together with Liu Shuyun.

After saying that, her face turned red.

Jiang Beicheng said gently: "Come and see our big star."

"Hahaha, Jiamin is really popular now. That song has become a hit on the show." Liu Shuyun waved at Zheng Jiamin.

Zheng Jiamin looked up at Jiang Beicheng.

Jiang Beicheng stretched out his hand and opened his other arms.

Zheng Jiamin walked over in small steps, leaned gently in his arms, lowered her head, and hid shyly.

"Just hug me a few more times." Liu Shuyun joked.

It’s more intimate when three best friends hug each other like this.

"Are you here for my business?" Zheng Jiamin asked in a low voice.

Jiang Beicheng moved to sit on the sofa and looked at her two best friends, "Are you going to handle it on your own?
Will he be eliminated and sent home in the next episode?

You spent so much money on me, and you come back to see me with this result?"

Liu Shuyun explained: "Jiang Jiang, the other party has a very deep background. It's iQiyi's own entertainment company. We are worried..."

"Are you worried that I won't be able to win over the platform?"

"Yeah!" Zheng Jiamin nodded.

Jiang Beicheng was at a loss for words. You really know how to respond. "Jiamin, accompany me to meet a friend and have dinner together." Jiang Beicheng said to Zheng Jiamin.

"Okay!" Zheng Jiamin nodded.

He looked up and looked directly at Jiang Beicheng: "Can you beat them?"

Jiang Beicheng: "Yes!"

Zheng Jiamin smiled again and nodded, "I believe it."

"You two silly women, you hid such a big thing from me. Don't you treat me as your best friend?" Jiang Beicheng pretended to be disgusted.

"I know I was wrong, Jiang Jiang!" Liu Shuyun sat down next to Jiang Beicheng, kissed him on the face, and asked for forgiveness.

After the kiss, he gave Zheng Jiamin a look.

Zheng Jiamin's neck turned red with embarrassment.

She can't imitate Third Sister.

The last time she drank, she had her back to Jiang Beicheng, so she dared to secretly kiss his neck.

Face to face, very shy.

Jiang Beicheng likes girls who are shy.

There was no pressure on Zheng Jiamin to be as open and affectionate as Liu Shuyun.

When she wants to do something, she will naturally take the initiative to look for opportunities.

The third sister is indeed a good friend and takes the initiative to help him discipline Zheng Jiamin.

The two sisters probably talked a lot in private.

Now it looks very harmonious.

Jiang Beicheng’s previous joke is almost confirmed, the three best friends are living happily together.

Jiang Beicheng teased Zheng Jiamin: "Can we listen to the famous star sing "The BBQ Shop Owner" live?"

The shyness on Zheng Jiamin's face disappeared, and she smiled. She sat down with her guitar and played for Jiang Beicheng.

She is still more accustomed to expressing her emotions through music.

After Jiang Beicheng heard her finish singing, he joked, "When will you write another song called 'The Male Boss of Beicheng Hotel'?"

Liu Shuyun chuckled and leaned on Jiang Beicheng's shoulder, "Jiang Jiang, stop teasing me."

"I've written it!" Zheng Jiamin continued.

"Ah? It's true!" Liu Shuyun looked at Zheng Jiamin in a daze.

Jiang Beicheng was also a little surprised.

Zheng Jiamin: "It's not the name you mentioned, it's called 'North City Hotel'!"

Folk songs like to use place names and people's names, which can evoke people's associations.

It feels like there are many stories behind it.

People who listen to songs will look for feelings related to their own situations in the songs.

Jiang Beicheng asked curiously: "When are you going to sing?"

Zheng Jiamin: “My last game.

If possible, I want you to come to the scene!"

A pair of expectant eyes looked at Jiangbeicheng.

Jiang Beicheng nodded: "I will definitely come to witness your glorious moment."

……

The three best friends chatted for a while, and Jiang Beicheng looked at the time and said, "Jia Min, let's go over there!
"Third sister, let's go to the hotel for dinner with Assistant Shen!"

"Okay, Jiang Jiang!"

She must have gone back to the hotel to take a shower and wait for her bestie to come back and taste it.

Jiang Beicheng took Zheng Jiamin to Liu Tao's house.

The couple hosted a family dinner in Jiangbei City today.

Jiang Beicheng also told him that he would bring a friend with him.

When the elevator door opened, Zheng Jiamin met Zhao Yue, the director of Guoguo Entertainment's artist management department.

The person who was going to convince her to sign with the company that day.

Both of them looked at each other in shock.

Look at each other for a moment.

"Boss Jiang is here?" Liu Tao came out to greet him and introduced him with a smile, "Zhao Yue, my subordinate, come and talk to me about some work.

Zhao Yue, this is Mr. Jiang, the founder of Lion Capital."

"Hello, Mr. Jiang!" Zhao Yue addressed him respectfully. "I've heard Mr. Liu mention you. I've heard a lot about you."

"Hello, would you like to come together?" Jiang Beicheng didn't mind having one more guest.

"No, Mr. Jiang, I can't accompany you and Mr. Liu today. I still have work to do. Enjoy your meal and drink!"

When Zhao Yue left, he looked at Zheng Jiamin again.

Zheng Jiamin didn't react for a moment.

Until Jiang Beicheng introduced Liu Tao to her.

She knew instantly.

Mr. Jiang also knows the executives of the platform!

"Mr. Jiang, please, make yourself at your own pace!" Liu Tao and his wife greeted them warmly. "My son is with his grandmother, so he won't have the chance to see Uncle Jiang today."

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said, "I'll have more time to visit the capital in the future, so I'll have a chance to meet the kids."

"Oh, I remember that you are opening a store here, Mr. Jiang. When you open your business, we will definitely go to support you!" Liu Tao toasted Jiang Beicheng with a smile.

The executives of these large companies in Beijing are all service personnel of Beicheng Hotel.

Jiang Beicheng clinked glasses with him and said, "Boss Liu, I came here today for another matter. I want to explain it to you in person to avoid any misunderstanding.

Jiamin is a contestant on the folk music variety show on your platform. She performed quite well and became a minor hit on the Internet after the first episode was aired.

I heard that Guoguo Entertainment wants to sign her, so I'd like to take this opportunity to tell you in person that my media company has already reached an agreement with her."

Liu Tao smiled and said, "It's just a small matter. Mr. Jiang, you can just give me a call and tell me. There's no need to come here in person.

Mr. Jiang doesn't consider me a friend?"

Zheng Jiamin stared blankly at the two people talking about her.

So easy?

She and her third sister were almost suffocated, and all Mr. Jiang had to do was make a phone call?
Jiang Beicheng smiled and continued, "It's precisely because I consider Mr. Liu a friend and considering the possibility of future cooperation with iQiyi that I should talk to him in person to avoid misunderstandings and making enemies, right?"

"Boss Jiang, I toast to you!" Liu Tao admired Jiang Beicheng's way of dealing with people and things. After drinking, he said, "Although I am the CEO of Guoguo Entertainment, I rarely get involved in management. My main focus is on the content of the platform.

President Jiang has spoken, I'll just give the order later."

Jiang Beicheng looked at Zheng Jiamin.

Zheng Jiamin knew basic etiquette and raised her glass to Liu Tao, "Thank you, Mr. Liu."

"The little girl's story of chasing her dreams is very touching. Keep up the hard work." Liu Tao encouraged: "Our program is created for dream chasers. As long as you work hard enough, more people will see you."

The deeper meaning of these two words of encouragement is that President Jiang will definitely give him face.

It was Zheng Jiamin's first time attending such a dinner party, and she was shocked.

It turns out that the way Mr. Jiang and his team solved the problem was so simple.

After talking about her, Jiang Beicheng was interested in recruiting Liu Tao. While drinking and chatting, he said, "I remember Mr. Liu seemed to have worked at Huayi Brothers before?"

"I did, during the peak period of Huayi, but I was unhappy with the job, so I changed jobs," Liu Tao said frankly.

He doesn't take Huayi seriously now.

He was the gold medal agent of Huayi Brothers Agency back then.

But he has always been the second in command for thousands of years. When Wang Jinghua was around, he was suppressed by Wang Jinghua. He actually accepted this. After all, in that era, her position in the circle was unshakable.

But later Wang Jinghua ran away with the artists, and he was still not given the position of director. He felt unhappy, so he left Huayi and started a business with Gong Yu, the current president of iQiyi.

I have been working at iQiyi for more than ten years and am considered a veteran.

However, with Baidu as the major shareholder behind the company, he can only be considered a working emperor at best.

I just make a living by taking annual salary and dividends.

Jiang Beicheng raised his glass and said, "My Yizhi Culture Media is in need of a CEO. Is Mr. Liu interested?"
