How did this star become more popular after his scandal?

Chapter 179 It was almost there!
Jiang Yu had to build his own team in a short period of time, so he had to rely on himself to organize and recruit, which was bound to be a slow process. However, Yang Xue and Su Muwan had been in the industry for many years and had connections. They also had their own companies and were definitely more familiar with building a team of artists than he was.

Yang Xue helped me get the most important position of agent. As for Su Muwan, there is the public relations team and some other teams, such as publicity, styling and so on.

After all, they are all exes. If I ask this one for help but not that one, won’t one of them be angry if they find out?

As for Sister Yuqing, she is still with the company, so there is no point in looking for her.

Although it seems that this sister is the best and most obedient and sensible at the moment, but when it comes to building a team, sister Yuqing still can't help much.

After chatting with Su Muwan, Jiang Yu put his phone aside. Everything was settled. Su Muwan had helped him solve most of the problems of his team members. Although there were definitely not enough people, he had introduced the heads of various departments, such as the public relations department and the publicity department, to him.

By then, we will have established a preliminary team and can gradually recruit people and develop the team.

The next day, Jiang Yu was waiting for Yang Xue's friends at the company. The people introduced by Su Muwan also came today. Everything was ready at the company, and they could start work directly on the same day.

Now we have recruited people from some core departments. They can be regarded as our own team for the time being, and then we can let them recruit people from their respective departments.

Sitting in the boss's office, Jiang Yu looked at the news about Yang Xue's friend who was about to arrive, Chu Jingya, 33 years old. Looking at her resume, she was quite outstanding. She had been to Country H and had managed several famous artists. She had rich experience.

and……

Judging from the photo on her resume, she is still a beautiful woman. The friends around Yang Xue seem to be pretty good looking too.

"Da da da……"

Following the sound of high heels hitting the ground, the door of Jiang Yu's office was knocked. Jiang Yu knew that it must be Chu Jingya.

"Please come in."

The office door was pushed open, and a beautiful woman wearing a white women's suit, with long hair and gold-rimmed glasses, walked in. She had a gentle temperament and a soft smile on her pretty face.

"Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Yu was also stunned when he saw the woman. She was even more beautiful in person than in the photo. Moreover, she had a gentle temperament, as soft as water, which made people feel very friendly.

"Sister Jingya is here, please take a seat."

Chu Jingya smiled and nodded, looking at Jiang Yu. She knew Jiang Yu and his past with her good friend Yang Xue. She used to look down on Jiang Yu, thinking he was just a talentless traffic star, a mere vase, and a playboy. But now, this guy was different. Not only was he talented, but he also gave people a very pleasant first impression.

I feel like he has become more mature and stable.

This was Chu Jingya's first impression of Jiang Yu after she arrived. She had seen him online before, had met him from a distance, and had even heard his friend Yang Xue mention him. The feeling Jiang Yu gave her now was completely different from before.

"I heard Sister Jingya just returned to China?"

Jiang Yu poured a glass of water for Chu Jingya and sat on the sofa to chat.

Chu Jingya wore a suit with a windbreaker on the outside. In the office, she took off the windbreaker and only wore a white women's suit. The whole person looked gentle and capable.

"Well, I just came back and am planning to develop in China. Xuexue said your company has just been established and is short of people, so she asked me to come over and take a look."

Chu Jingya always had a faint smile on her face and spoke softly. Jiang Yu smiled and asked, "Sister Jingya, are you from Jiangnan?"

Chu Jingya showed a look of surprise on her face: "Yes? How did you know?"

"I can tell from Sister Jingya's accent. Sister Jingya's temperament makes me think she is from the Jiangnan water town."

Chu Jingya smiled and said, "Let's talk about work first."

"Okay, here's the contract I've prepared. Sister Jingya, you can take a look at it first. As you know, my company has just been established and we're very short of people. Our current scale is definitely not as large as those of the big companies. But the salary I can give you, Sister Jingya, will definitely not be lower than those of the big companies. I'll give you the position of Artist Manager directly, Sister Jingya. As for the company's development and listing in the future, I can give you a portion of the shares..."

Jiang Yu was very direct, offering excellent conditions and directly stating his future plans. He wanted to be more than just an artist company, but a comprehensive entertainment company encompassing artist development, music, film, television, variety shows, and copyright.

After hearing Jiang Yu's words, Chu Jingya took a quick look at the contract and found nothing wrong with it. She just smiled and looked at Jiang Yu and asked.

"Mr. Jiang, are you so confident? Taking too big a step isn't a good thing. Besides, the company has just been established, and you want to do too much. Are you really so confident that you can make the company a success?"

She reminded Jiang Yu: "Besides, the entertainment industry is now controlled by those old big companies. If you want to get involved and get a piece of the pie, it won't be that easy. Those entertainment companies won't let you develop so easily and share the cake."

Having spent so much time in Country H, a country with a remarkably advanced entertainment industry, Chu Jingya was well-versed in the entertainment industry. This was especially true of the Chinese entertainment industry, which, after so many years of development, had essentially become established, with established entertainment companies dominating the landscape. It was difficult for newly established companies to break in and gain a share of the pie.

On weekdays, it seems that these companies are competing fiercely, but when a new company wants to break in and grab their cake, these capitals will band together to target the new company.

Even her good friend Yang Xue had a difficult time when she first established her company. She had signed a gambling agreement and, after winning, she was able to slowly grow the company. Furthermore, Yang Xue's company was only a moderately large one in the entertainment industry. The piece of the pie she snatched back then was only a small one, but she knew that this alone required a great deal of effort from Yang Xue.

During those two years, I was busy filming and appearing on TV shows, and I didn't have any rest at all.

Jiang Yu, on the other hand, had just established his company and was already thinking about developing other businesses. Chu Jingya felt he was unsteady and impulsive. She felt that Jiang Yu's current development should be centered around him and his music; that was the foundation for the company's initial development. Once the foundation was established and the company's initial development was strong, they could consider other aspects.

Music is Jiang Yu's basic foundation. If you haven't developed your basic foundation well and still want to do other things, you will most likely fail.

Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Sister Jingya, you can trust me. I'm confident. I also know what you're worried about. Music is definitely the foundation for the initial development of my company. Please trust my ability. I have the copyrights, so you don't have to worry about future development. And Sister Jingya, you should also know my songwriting ability. I can also guide new people in the future..."

Jiang Yu talked a lot, and Chu Jingya listened to Jiang Yu's detailed plans. Gradually, she went from doubt to surprise, and finally to belief.

She realized her previous worries seemed unnecessary. Jiang Yu had considered everything she could think of, even things she hadn't. Furthermore, his plans for the company's future development were exceptionally clear, with every plan and proposal clearly laid out. It was clear that Jiang Yu had put a lot of thought into the company's development plan.

And it was really like Jiang Yu said, he alone could support the company, not to mention his songwriting ability. He wrote many songs for Su Muwan and others, all of which were hits. If Jiang Yu were to train new artists in the future, it would be hard not to become a hit if he wrote songs for them to sing.

Chu Jingya thought about it and finally nodded: "Okay, then I will accompany you to try it out and accompany a new company to grow step by step. When it succeeds in the future, the sense of accomplishment will be full."

She smiled and spoke softly, sitting there, gentle as water, with the charm and intellectual beauty of a mature woman, which was particularly eye-catching.

In this way, Chu Jingya signed directly and joined Jiang Yu's company, becoming the manager of the artist department and serving as Jiang Yu's agent.

"Then welcome Sister Jingya."

"I might be quite busy these days, so I'll have to trouble Sister Jingya for some things."

Chu Jingya smiled and said, "It's okay."

"You haven't found an assistant yet, right? You'll need one if you have work to do later. I'll help you recruit one in the next couple of days."

Chu Jingya knew Jiang Yu's company had just been established, and only a few key department heads had been appointed. Further recruitment was needed. As for Jiang Yu's assistant, the boss needed to work, and he definitely needed one. Previously, Jiang Yu had fewer tasks and announcements, so he could have done without one. But now that he had more on his plate, an assistant was definitely needed. Furthermore, as Jiang Yu's manager, she needed an assistant to help him with certain matters.

"Okay, I'll leave it to you, Sister Jingya. This week, I'm going to the Greater Bay Area Gala this weekend, and then I'm recording the singer's semi-finals next Monday. There's not much else to do. You can arrange the rest of the schedule accordingly. As for those programs and events that come to me, as well as endorsements, I'll have to check them out. The quality of the endorsed products must be up to standard..."

Chu Jingya nodded: "Don't worry, just leave it to me."

Two days later, Chu Jingya hired an assistant for Jiang Yu. It was Liu Yue, a recent college graduate with a chubby face. The moment she saw Jiang Yu, she was so excited she couldn't speak.

"Old...boss!"

Jiang Yu looked at the girl's excited and surprised expression and said with a smile, "Would you like to take a photo first?"

Xiaoyue looked surprised: "Is it possible?"

She herself had never expected that after graduating in June and still not finding a job, she would see a new job posting for a celebrity assistant and apply. She was unexpectedly selected. After joining the company, she found out that the boss of the company was actually the famous star Jiang Yu, and she had to be Jiang Yu's assistant!
When I was in school, many people in my class liked to listen to Jiang Yu’s songs, and I was no exception. Xiaoyue never thought that one day she would be able to get so close to a big star like Jiang Yu and become her assistant!

Oh my god, I am so happy!

After taking the photo with Jiang Yu, Xiaoyue felt a little unreal. Seeing her boss's friendly demeanor, seemingly without any airs, Xiaoyue thought to herself, "It seems that even big stars aren't that hard to approach. The boss seemed pretty nice, and he should be easy to get along with."

But the more Xiaoyue thought about it, the more puzzled she became. The boss was obviously such a nice person, so why were so many people online scolding him for beating Hu Tian?
Before, she had thought Jiang Yu's beating was a bit excessive, but now, after getting to know him, Xiaoyue suddenly felt that the boss was such a nice person, so he shouldn't be the violent person everyone said he was. Hu Tian's scolding caused such a reaction from the boss, and Xiaoyue wondered if there was something else going on.

"Xiaoyue, you will be responsible for the boss's personal life from now on. The assistant job will be handed over to you."

Chu Jingya spoke gently, instructing Xiaoyue on some of her duties. She wasn't hiring a professional, but the job was something she could learn easily and wasn't too troublesome. It was just like understanding the boss's lifestyle and personal preferences, and taking care of his daily work life. And since he was a recent college graduate, the most important thing was that he had to be obedient. "Yeah! I understand, Sister Jingya. I'll take good care of the boss!"

Xiaoyue nodded seriously. This job is really good! The monthly salary is over 10,000 yuan, and you can get close to big stars. Many of my classmates only make 3,000 or 4,000 yuan after graduation, and the higher ones are only 5,000 or 6,000 yuan. There are even many who don’t have any jobs. I am so lucky to have found this job. Xiaoyue silently told herself in her heart that she must do a good job and make sure to keep this job!
"I'll send you Mr. Jiang's schedule later, so you can familiarize yourself with it first."

"Okay, Sister Jingya!"

Jiang Yu sat in his office, looking over some recent company documents and personnel recruitment. In just two days, various departments had hired quite a few people. Some were acquaintances hired directly by the department heads, but most were also new.

But it doesn't matter. Everyone is a newcomer. As long as they work hard, they can make a difference. Jiang Yu is very confident in himself, and the company's future development will definitely be good.

For now, although he is the only artist, he alone can support the company.

However, I will definitely develop and train new people in the future. Once the new people are trained and the company's development is gradually on the right track, I will no longer have to work so hard. At that time, I can slowly retreat behind the scenes and make money without doing anything.

These days, Jiang Yu has been busy with company affairs. It has just been established and there is still a lot of things to do.

Time quickly came to Friday, the time for the fifth episode of "Singer" to be broadcast.

"It's been a week. Do you know how I've been spending this week? I finally waited for the fifth episode of Singer to air."

"Here we go! It's another new round of singers! I want to see what happens this time and how far that violent Jiang Yu can rank."

"This was Jiang Yu's first official PK episode, a successful replacement. The conflict between him and Hu Tian occurred during this episode, and the violent assault ended with the recording of this episode."

"Disgusting, this violent, uneducated guy, I don't even want to see him now."

"I just want to see where Jiang Yu will rank in this round. Will he be eliminated directly? That would be hilarious."

"This is the official showdown between him and Hu Tian, ​​right? Who will win or lose this time?"

"It must be Hu Tian. Jiang Yu, an uneducated and violent maniac, will definitely not be able to defeat Teacher Hu."

……

As soon as the show was aired, many viewers flocked in. Because of the previous conflict between Jiang Yu and Hu Tian, ​​many netizens rushed in to complain and abuse Jiang Yu in the barrage.

Lin Qianqian frowned slightly as she looked at the comments. These people were quite aggressive. It had been so long, and they still hadn't let go of this matter, and were still holding Jiang Yu accountable. Honestly, she felt that Jiang Yu had done nothing wrong. For these people to scold Jiang Yu like this, did Hu Tian have the right to do so?
She shook her head. People nowadays are really something. She didn't want to say more. She turned off the barrage and watched the show peacefully.

Anyway, Lin Qianqian felt that Jiang Yu did nothing wrong. She even felt that Jiang Yu's reaction must have some hidden story.

But now, she is too lazy to watch these things or think about them. What she needs to do now is to watch this episode of "Singer".

Lin Qianqian was also a little curious. This episode was the official showdown between Jiang Yu and Hu Tian. Their previous grudges, combined with their current situation, made them complete rivals. Who would win in this first official showdown?

Will Jiang Yu be the first to surpass Hu Tian in the first round after successfully filling in the position, or will Hu Tian continue to perform steadily, firmly occupy the second position and suppress Jiang Yu?

Lin Qianqian watched this episode of the show. Jiang Yu was the first to go on stage, so she didn't have to wait so long for Jiang Yu's performance.

"I wonder what kind of song Jiang Yu will perform this time?"

What Lin Qianqian looks forward to most now is Jiang Yu’s new songs in every episode, but...

This first opening is not very good on the music competition stage.

"If I'm the first to open, I guess my ranking in this round won't be too high."

Lin Qianqian felt that with Jiang Yu's strength, he would definitely not be eliminated, but he would be at a disadvantage at the beginning, so his ranking would probably not be too high.

When the audience saw Jiang Yu appear on the stage, the screen was filled with words like "get out" and "uneducated".

"I want to see what strength you have, haha, you're a violent lunatic."

"Stop scrolling, are you annoying? Is it okay for Hu Tian to curse people? He even cursed Jiang Yu's parents. In my opinion, Hu Tiancai is the most outrageous one."

"Being the first to open is really disadvantageous. I don't think Jiang Yu can beat Hu Tian in this round."

"I also think that we're at a disadvantage at the start. Even if we're not eliminated, we'll probably be trampled under the feet of Hu Tian."

……

When Jiang Yu's performance began, Lin Qianqian's eyes lit up as she listened to his new song, "Wrong Love." The more she listened, the more she was amazed, and the more she felt that Jiang Yu's singing skills were truly solid.

“I never thought I would do this
I've never loved before, so I love wrongly.

Where do I take off from?
Where to land

How many unforgivable mistakes
But I can’t start over again…”

After listening to Jiang Yu's song and watching Jiang Yu's performance, Lin Qianqian was filled with excitement.

“This song is so nice!”

"Also, Jiang Yu's new song, 'Love Wrongly,' sounds very simple, but it's incredibly complex and difficult to sing..."

Lin Qianqian, who was considered a semi-professional, knew very well how difficult it was for Jiang Yu to sing "Wrong Love". She estimated that it would be difficult for anyone to cover this song, or no one would dare to do so easily.

As expected, when the expert panel later reviewed Jiang Yu's performance, one expert teacher pointed out the key points of Jiang Yu's song, saying it was very complex and difficult to sing. However, Jiang Yu sang it with such ease, which was enough to show his deep and solid singing skills.

At this moment, even the audience was deeply amazed after listening to this song and watching Jiang Yu's performance.

"Not bad, this song 'Love Wrongly' is very nice. As expected, Jiang Yu's love songs never disappoint!"

"Indeed, this song is really nice. The experts said it was so difficult to sing, but Jiang Yu sang it so effortlessly. His singing skills are truly unparalleled."

"Putting aside other things, Jiang Yu's talent and strength are truly formidable!"

"I'm too lazy to read the online comments cursing him. I'm here to listen to his music, and I don't think Jiang Yu did anything wrong. If anyone curses my mother like that, I'll beat him up."

"Haha, this violent, uneducated scumbag, you still think it sounds good? It really disgusts me. He's just pretending to be affectionate."

"That's right. I already don't like this scumbag. He has no manners, doesn't know how to respect his elders, and is so impulsive. He definitely has a tendency towards violence."

……

While Lin Qianqian was watching the show, she was already silently thinking about the video copy for Jiang Yu's song "Wrong Love".

"The song is great, and Jiang Yu performed very well, but I'm not sure what his final ranking will be."

She thought Jiang Yu's song and performance were both excellent, but because he opened the show, he was at a disadvantage, which had a significant impact on the final voting and rankings. For example, Jiang Yu didn't get a high number of votes in the expert panel vote.

After watching Hu Tian's performance, his fans were all crazy flooding the screen with support for Hu Tian, ​​saying that they felt sorry for Hu Tian getting beaten, and that this time he had left the uneducated Jiang Yu behind!
Lin Qianqian thought Hu Tian’s performance was pretty good and was now waiting for the results to be announced.

When the final result was announced, Lin Qianqian was shocked, and the audience was also shocked.

Jiang Yu and Hu Tian’s rankings are just a little bit apart, Jiang Yu is fourth and Hu Tian is third!
The difference is just a few votes!

At this moment, Hu Tian’s fans were all stunned. They thought that Hu Tian would be far ahead of Jiang Yu and completely crush Jiang Yu.

But the result now is that Jiang Yu almost surpassed Hu Tian!
Jiang Yu started the competition at a disadvantage, but the difference between him and Hu Tian was only a few votes, and he almost surpassed Hu Tian! Moreover, Hu Tian couldn't even maintain his second place this time, falling directly to third place, and was almost surpassed by Jiang Yu!

This issue is almost there, what about the next one?

Will Jiang Yu surpass him directly?
