Entertainment mogul: Starting his business with the internet

Chapter 272 A good show

The next morning, Zhang Xiaolong rushed back to the company. He had been appointed as the product manager of the WeChat project, and was fully responsible for the development and operation of the WeChat app.

Zhang Xiaolong is a very thoughtful and creative person. In his view, WeChat has already achieved the difficult breakthrough from 0 to 1.

It now has a certain user base, and its first-mover advantage is extremely obvious until Tengda Group makes a mistake or Tencent launches a full-scale crackdown, which has been difficult for later products to shake.

If WeChat wants to surpass WeChat, it must innovate and develop its own unique features.

Otherwise, following others' pace will always leave you a step behind, so he disdains simply copying WeChat and is determined to make WeChat an innovative app.

Many past cases involving Tenda Company illustrate this point. During the Weibo controversy, other companies simply copied Tenda's Weibo platform.

As a result, they fell completely into Tengda's carefully prepared trap. All competitors were led by the nose by Tengda from beginning to end, until their user numbers were completely outpaced, and Tengda Weibo became the sole dominant player.

Not to mention that Zhang Xiaolong and his newly formed team are racking their brains to design WeChat, preparing to make a name for themselves and give Tengda Group a surprise.

As for Liu Shishi, after finishing filming her scenes for "The Myth," she stayed at Xiaobailou for another day to handle her work before embarking on her journey back to Beiping on the morning of the 2nd.

When the top female star returned to the capital this time, in addition to her two assistants, she also brought along a little tagalong: Gulnazar, the artist newly signed by Cai Yinong.

Since meeting Gulnazar at the opening celebration party of Liu Shishi's film and television studio, Cai Yinong has been very impressed with the young girl's appearance and has been determined to recruit her.

After accompanying Gulinaza back to northern Xinjiang, with sincerity and patience, he successfully persuaded Azha's parents to sign her with Tangren Media.

Cai Yinong is a decent person and doesn't rush to exploit the young girl. He plans to carefully nurture her so that she can take over Liu Shishi's position in the future.

Considering that Gulinaza was still young, and thinking that the young girl should still study and try to go to a film academy for further studies, he asked Liu Shishi to take the girl back to Beiping to find a tutoring class so that she could try to get into the Beijing Film Academy.

At this moment, Gulnazar was standing next to Tangren's top female star, feeling uneasy. She was only somewhat familiar with Cai Yinong at Tangren.

I've only met Liu Shishi a handful of times, and we've barely spoken a few words to each other. I don't know what the famous "Queen of Pop" thinks of me.

At Donghai Airport, the four people finished checking in and were about to board the plane through the VIP channel.

Liu Shishi glanced back at Gulinaza, who had been silent and followed her closely, and seemed to be deep in thought.

He pushed up his slightly drooping sunglasses and said softly, "Naza, you seem a little afraid of me?"

Gulinaza was walking with her head down when Liu Shishi suddenly stopped. Gulinaza was startled and almost bumped into Liu Shishi.

A flicker of panic crossed her face, and she stammered, "No...no, Senior Sister."

Seeing the little girl's panicked appearance, Liu Shishi tried her best to control her tone, making it sound gentle and kind: "Naza, from now on we are all family, there's no need to be so formal."

After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the girl's arm, and clearly felt her body tremble and her limbs stiffen.

Liu Shishi wondered why Nazha was so afraid of her. Could there be some misunderstanding?

"Naza, we've only met a few times, why are you so nervous? Sister K has entrusted you to me for the time being, so we can have an open and honest talk about anything."

Seemingly sensing the sincerity of the top female executive, Gulinaza hesitated for a moment before replying in a low voice, "Senior Sister, President Cai said he wants to groom me to be the company's top female executive. I'm afraid you might overthink it!"

As he spoke, he secretly observed Liu Shishi's expression out of the corner of his eye, but unfortunately, she was wearing sunglasses, so he couldn't see her expression at all.

Liu Shishi chuckled. The little girl was really worrying unnecessarily. She hadn't even debuted yet and she was already concerned that she would be suppressed. How confident she was in her looks and future!

"Why would I think that? By the time you debut and become famous, I might have already retired from acting and returned to my family. We are five or six years apart. K-jie wants to cultivate you so that the leading lady of Tangren can be passed on in an orderly manner."

Liu Shishi spoke gently, holding the little girl's slender, fair hand, wanting to help her resolve her inner conflict.

Gulinaza was skeptical. She didn't believe Liu Shishi's claim that she would return to her family; she simply didn't believe it.

She spent the last few months frantically researching the entertainment industry and never saw any popular female stars easily give up their careers for their families.

The four famous actresses and two famous actresses in the industry, none of these leading ladies have gotten married, let alone the younger actresses like Liu Shishi.

However, what the top female star said makes a lot of sense. She hasn't even debuted yet, and it's still unknown whether she can become popular.

Liu Shishi probably wouldn't worry about being a threat to her position. Plus, the top female star's attitude was indeed very friendly, which made her feel somewhat at ease.

Gulinaza was young and couldn't hide her feelings. Liu Shishi could tell from her expression that she didn't completely believe what she said.

A sense of doubt immediately arose in my mind. The girl was innocent and romantic, not the kind of person who was cunning and could think so much.

After thinking for a moment, the eldest sister subtly inquired, "Naza, besides Sister K, has anyone else told you that you will take over my job?"

Gulinaza nodded: "Jin Chen also said that you are the current number one female star, and we have to respect you."

Even if I become Tangren's top female star in the future, I won't put on airs in front of you. Senior Sister, I truly have never had any intention of replacing you.

Hearing Gulinaza's confident assurances, Liu Shishi was quite surprised. She felt that Jin Chen was a bit strange. Why was he saying these things to a newcomer? Wasn't he just causing the young girl unnecessary trouble?
After a moment's thought, the eldest sister realized that the person who was truly worried was Jin Chen! But thinking about it, it was understandable.

The two are of similar age. Gulnazar is too beautiful, and the company has limited resources. If they promote one, they will inevitably delay the development of the other, and they will inevitably lose sight of one.

Liu Shishi sighed silently. It seemed she would have to keep a closer eye on Jin Chen in the future; neither of them was easy to deal with.

The group walked through the passageway, quickly stepped onto the gangway, and boarded the first-class cabin.

Looking at the three flight attendants standing in front of the cabin door with fake smiles on their faces, Liu Shishi felt very displeased. Why was it this flight again?

She was particularly struck by one of the flight attendants on the flight, who seemed to harbor a subtle hostility towards her and was very likely a hater of hers.

"Xiaoxia!"

"What's wrong, sister?"

"Remember, don't take this flight for your future trips between Beiping and Donghai."

Hearing the young mistress's instructions, Lin Xia didn't understand why there would be such a strange request, but she still kept it in mind.

The top leader may have a good temper, but that doesn't mean she has no temper. If her subordinates don't do things well, they will still be criticized.

After the passengers left, the flight attendant, Fang Yue, could no longer contain her anger: "Shasha, control your expression. If there's a next time, you'll be sent to economy class."

Fang Yue looked at Sun Shasha, who seemed unconvinced, and shook her head helplessly. The innocent little girl from back then had been corrupted by Yao Ting.

She's always thinking about nonsense, even attending those training courses, and dreaming of hooking up with rich second-generation heirs. If she continues like this, she'll go astray sooner or later. Sun Shasha completely ignored the flight attendant's words; her mind was filled with the image of Liu Shishi, whose increasingly gentle and graceful demeanor made her unable to suppress her jealousy.

Why is it that she can become a big star and receive the favor of the richest man, while I can only sit here bowing my head and smiling to serve others?

So she decided to change her fate and climb into high society. Under Yao Ting's influence, she enrolled in a socialite training class.

"Don't let this interfere with your work. You'd better take care of yourselves." Fang Yue sighed, turned around and went to the service cabin, out of sight, out of mind.

"Don't worry, Sister Yue." Yao Ting nodded. She was still very serious about her work as a flight attendant and had not made any mistakes.

The registration fee for each training course is not low, and she needs a stable income. The job pressure of a first-class flight attendant is relatively low, and she can also meet some wealthy people, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.

"Shasha, have you noticed that little girl next to Liu Shishi?"

“I saw it.” Sun Shasha said with a look of jealousy. The girl’s appearance had left a deep impression on her, making even a woman like herself feel amazed.

"Is it possible to bring her in and have her join us?" Yao Ting tentatively suggested.

Sister Amy, the person in charge of the training course, said that there would be a reward if you could introduce some girls with excellent looks to join, which is why she went to great lengths to get Sun Shasha involved.

Sun Shasha thought for a moment: "I need to find an opportunity to test her. She seems to be a newcomer to the industry."

"Sister Amy really hopes to recruit celebrities from the entertainment industry to join us. Let's discuss this. If things go smoothly, Sister Amy might be able to give us access to the top-tier resources."

"I'd like to too, but we don't know the person, so we should at least find out about them first. By the way, when we go to Beiping this time, Sister Amy organized a trip to a certain place."

Yao Ting smiled mysteriously: "You'll never imagine where this will be."

"Okay, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me already."

"Jingyuan".

Sun Shasha's beautiful eyes lit up, her face full of disbelief: "It's the Jingyuan Villa where that big shot on the rich list lives, the one known as the urban oasis! Sister Amy, you're so amazing, you can take us to a place like this?"

They usually take photos and act like socialites, going to high-end hotels or ordinary villa areas. Places like the Beiping Jing Shi Yuan are things they wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Yao Ting was smug and proud: "I told you long ago that Sister Amy has a lot of influence and she only associates with real rich kids."

"Taking us inside the garden shouldn't be a problem. Let's go, let's get to work first, otherwise Sister Yue will start nagging again."

Sun Shasha sighed, her excitement quickly turning into reality: "Ugh, I don't want to do this damn job of being a flight attendant for even a day longer."

"Didn't that rich guy like you a lot last time?"

"Don't even mention it. It's one thing that the old man is getting on in years, but the real problem is that he has a family."

"Never mind then." Yao Ting shook her head. These girls still had some ambition, thinking about becoming the first wife. Otherwise, with their looks, it would be easy for them to find a rich man.

Around noon, the plane landed smoothly at Beiping Airport. Liu Shishi said goodbye to the three people and was driven directly back to Jingyuan by the driver.

Gulinaza was temporarily placed in a hotel by Jiang Yuanyuan, and Liu Shishi would rent her an apartment in a couple of days.

Late at night, in the hotel, after taking a shower, Naza was on the phone with her sister when she suddenly remembered the flight attendant who had chatted with her on the plane earlier that day.

She quickly got out of bed and rummaged through her bag for a small note with the flight attendant's Weibo account.

After following the flight attendant's Weibo account, I started browsing it.

This flight attendant's life was beyond Naza's imagination. She frequented various five-star hotels, ate delicacies, and lived in villas and mansions, which was truly enviable.

“We’re both flight attendants, but the difference in our lives is just too big.” Thinking of her sister’s frugal life, Naza said with a self-deprecating laugh, “She must come from a very wealthy family.”

Scrolling through the screen, each update reveals the lavish lifestyle of this socialite. Many of the flight attendant blogger's followers showered her with praise, making her feel a pang of envy.

Shasha v: My family bought a villa in Jingyuan a while ago. I had some free time today to go and take a look. The scenery in the yard is really nice, and the fragrance of osmanthus is everywhere.

"Wow, Shasha's family actually owns a villa in Jingyuan. The people who live there are all very rich and powerful."

"This is incredible! This is the Beiping Jingyuan, known as an urban oasis. A villa here is estimated to cost more than 2 million yuan now."

"My sister is so rich! I'm so envious!"

Although Gulinaza had never heard of Jingyuan, it was easy to tell from the exquisite and magnificent buildings in the pictures that it must be a place only the very wealthy and powerful could afford to live in.

While aimlessly browsing through the flattering comments, a strange message suddenly caught her attention.

Yang Liuyi: "If I remember correctly, the owner of Building 8 in Jingyuan is Mr. Lei, the former chairman of Kingsoft Software. He only has one daughter in elementary school, not a daughter as old as you, blogger."

This skeptical reply stood out starkly amidst a sea of ​​praise and envy, prompting several netizens to press for the blogger's true story.

Naza also became interested and waited for the next installment.

As expected, the blogger quickly replied: "Mr. Lei is my neighbor. My house is in Building 7. The photo was just taken casually when I passed by Building 8."

Those who raised questions were clearly waiting in front of the screen, and replied in less than a minute.

Yang Liuyi: "That's so cool. The owner of Building 7 is Song Ci, the richest man in China. So you're the daughter of the richest man, blogger. My apologies."

The reply immediately caused an uproar in the comments section. As everyone knows, the richest man could not possibly have a daughter in her twenties, and he is an only child with no siblings.

One lie leads to countless others. The blogger stubbornly argued, "Nonsense. Building 7 is clearly my home."

Yang Liuyi: "I've known for a long time that you're a pretentious liar. It was one thing to fool ignorant netizens in Donghai before, but this time you actually dared to come all the way to Beiping. And even went to my cousin and his wife's house to show off. How could I tolerate this?"

The comment included a picture of one man and two women; the two women's faces were blurred out.

But everyone recognized the man's handsome face; it was none other than the richest man, Mr. Song, and the background of the photo was clearly the No. 7 villa in Jingyuan.

The plot twist was quite dramatic. No one expected that Yang Liuyi would directly produce a photo of Song Ci, and even more unexpectedly, the blogger who had been playing the role of a top socialite was actually a fraud.

Gulnazar was also stunned, witnessing the entire farcical spectacle.

"People in big cities really know how to have fun! It's a pity that the fake met the real deal. That Yang Liuyi is actually the sister of the richest man. How enviable."
