Since we are both reborn, of course I would choose the rich woman!

Chapter 146 Industrial Upgrading
The fragmented and shaky shots, the cold and noisy blurry image quality, look like a video recorded by a family member in an unprofessional manner many years ago.

"Hello, hello, testing the camera."

"OK, let's see how this works."

"It feels great. Director Hu is busy right now and I don't dare to disturb her."

"Shh, keep your voice down and don't disturb Xiaoyu."

".I don't know, I just feel it's so quiet here."

"But if I stay here all the time, won't I get bored sometimes?"

In those fragmentary videos, Lu Yao occasionally turned the camera to himself, and then chatted with Brother Di next to him or with the staff.

Either he was wandering around the yard with a camera, or he was standing far away with his back to Hu Xiaoyu, secretly taking pictures of Hu Xiaoyu's back and then saying some nonsense and illogical gossip.

The video was obviously not shot professionally and the content was obviously not nutritious, but Hu Xiaoyu was fascinated by it.

The blurry image quality filled with nostalgia seemed to pull Hu Xiaoyu's thoughts from the present to the past, causing her to feel an indescribable sense of loss and sadness in her heart, and making her unable to help but recall every detail of Lu Yao's time here.

"call--"

Hu Xiaoyu rubbed his face hard and prepared to devote himself to today's ancient book restoration work.

Hu Xiaoyu stopped the work at hand while she was doing it. In the past, when she was here, she could always get into the working state easily, with no distractions and her work was smooth and fluent.

At that time, she could even feel peace and happiness from her focused work.

But now she could not calm down. The room was still the same room, and the work was still the same work.

But in Hu Xiaoyu's perception, the quaint and quiet wing became empty, the smell of medicine in the air became stronger, and the work that was originally easy to do also became cumbersome.

Hu Xiaoyu was in a daze, looking out the window.

It has been almost two months since the beginning of spring. The coldness that shrouded the south of the Yangtze River is gradually fading, and the occasional warm sunshine adds a bit of moist warmth to the coldness in the south of the Yangtze River.

Just like today, the afternoon sun is bright, the treetops are light green, and the quietly coming spring light makes this already quiet, elegant and beautiful garden even more delicate and beautiful.

But the room was a little dark, with a gloomy atmosphere that was inconsistent with the outside.

Inside the house and outside the house are like two completely different worlds.

Suddenly, a few birds landed on the treetops in Hu Xiaoyu's yard and chirped non-stop, making her room even quieter.

Hu Xiaoyu suddenly began to feel like a bird locked in this small world. He was far less free and full of vitality than the birds on the branches.

But before Lu Yao came, she had never felt this way.

"Hu Xiaoyu, ah Hu Xiaoyu."

"What's the matter with you?"

Hu Xiaoyu held his face with both hands, his mind distracted and he didn't know what he was thinking about.

……

After Lu Yao and Rong Nianqing said goodbye to Hu Xiaoyu, they got on the MPV back to Shangnan.

In the car, Rong Nianqing suddenly raised her head from the documents in her hands, looked at Lu Yao who was dozing beside her and said, "Although I know you are using hype to promote Ms. Hu, I think you two seem to be a good match."

"How about I help you get married? I can't guarantee success, but what if?"

Lu Yao was still dozing off, his eyes still closed: "It seems that Mr. Rong's workload is still not saturated enough, and he still has time to think about these things."

Rong Nianqing smiled and said, "You didn't explicitly refuse."

Lu Yao still didn't open his eyes: "In the adult world, if there is no clear consent, it is a rejection."

Rong Nianqing shrugged and continued to look at the documents in his hand.

Hangzhou is not too far from Shangnan. After returning to Shangnan in the afternoon, Lu Yao carried his suitcase back to Sister Wang's apartment.

He fell asleep as soon as he got home. He was awakened by the noise of Sister Wang coming home around 6 or 7 in the evening. When Lu Yao woke up, he leaned against the head of the bed and shouted to the living room, "You're back."

Sister Wang's voice came from the living room: "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming back?"

Lu Yao looked at Sister Wang who walked to the bedroom door and smiled, "I came back with President Rong's car. There's nothing to say in advance."

Sister Wang turned on the night light in the bedroom and looked at Lu Yao, who had lost a lot of weight, and said distressedly, "You've lost a lot of weight."

Lu Yaole said: "Isn't he more handsome after losing weight?"

Sister Wang pouted: "I prefer you to be stronger."

Lu Yao gestured with his hands on his face: "What about my face that was swollen like a pig's head before?"

Sister Wang glared at Lu Yao and said, "You are so poor! Haven't you eaten yet? I will cook for you and make you some hot soup first."

After reuniting after a short separation, there seemed to be a little estrangement between the two, but estrangement is also a kind of freshness, so there is a saying that a short separation is better than a new marriage.

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Okay."

When Wang Jie put on her apron and cooked, Lu Yao washed his face and came behind Wang Jie, hugged her, and said with a smile: "The sheets and quilt covers at home have been changed. Why is there someone at home?"

Sister Wang's eyes suddenly flashed with panic: "Ah, Jian Xiaojie came to stay at home for a few nights some time ago."

"Oh~" Lu Yao understood.

Then Lu Yao's hands started to get naughty, but Sister Wang grabbed Lu Yao's hands and said firmly: "Don't make trouble, you just had an allergy, you need to rest well, I will wait for you to recover."

Lu Yao pretended to be exaggerated and said, "Ah? Such a beautiful woman is always in front of me but I can't touch her. How uncomfortable I am."

Sister Wang was very happy in her heart, but she said stubbornly: "Then why don't I come back here during this period of time?"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Then I don't eat well and sleep late, so it may take me longer to recover."

Sister Wang turned her head and glared at Lu Yao: "How can you be like this! Get out now and don't disturb me while I'm cooking."

In order to give Lu Yao a good nourishment, Sister Wang made a special phone call to order a fresh sea grouper, and then stewed some soup, plus a few nourishing and nutritious dishes.

Looking at the table full of delicacies, Lu Yao smiled and said, "It's good to be back~" After that, he started to eat with relish. At the table, Sister Wang and Lu Yao didn't mention Hu Xiaoyu's affairs. This was a tacit understanding between them.

The next day, Lu Yao slept in and went to the MCN company around noon. As soon as he arrived at the company, he found a cup of coffee on his desk. It was obviously brought to him by Zhou Bella.

Lu Yao found Zhou Bella and asked with a smile: "How did you know I was back?"

Zhu Junyan strolled over and said with a smile: "Bella asks me about your schedule every day. If it were you, I would just let Bella be your secretary."

Lu Yao laughed and said, "That's a waste of talent."

Zhou Bella pouted and thought to herself that she was just unyielding.

Then Lu Yao discussed the company's recent developments with Zhu Junyan and learned about the company's operations during his absence of more than a month.

Ever since Tao Siyu messed up the voice chat software "Xinliao", the center of Shangnan City has given some support to compensate Lu Yao for his losses.

With the support, the number of registered users of "Xinliao" has been growing steadily every week. Now the platform's weekly turnover is six to seven million. Various small unions are also actively entering the platform, constantly enriching the platform with fresh blood.

At the same time, various activities on the Xinliao platform have also received good responses.

Among them, the game League of Legends has more and more players and is becoming more and more popular. Female masters who can play League of Legends are almost in short supply on the chat platform.

This business opportunity has also allowed more and more platform users to become full-time "masters", and the time fees for masters playing with players in the League of Legends track have also been declining due to internal competition.

After looking around, Lu Yao said, "If there are high-quality female celebrities who want to play with us, we can recruit them to our MCN company. Of course, we can also recruit male celebrities who are good at entertainment. We should keep a close eye on them and let the operation department help them build up their accounts."

The game League of Legends has a long life cycle and will still have a large audience even ten years later. It is a game that can generate long-term profits.

Zhu Junyan took note of it carefully and said, "No problem."

Lu Yao thought for a moment and said, "Oh, right, we can promote this on Tieba and game forums, and we can also hold more competitions on our platform to increase the activity and stickiness of the players on the platform."

After chatting with Zhu Junyan about the work on the voice chat platform, Lu Yao checked the operating status of the QQ online store.

After the Chinese New Year, sales of QQ online stores began to decline significantly.

But this is normal.

Various businesses' activities during the Spring Festival have emptied many people's wallets, so every time after the New Year, the sales data of major shopping malls and online stores will show a significant decline. Only after everyone has worked for a few months to make up for their losses will they have spare money to spend.

Therefore, on later online shopping platforms, various promotional days are all in the second half of the year, such as "618 Big Sale", "818 Big Sale", "Double Eleven" and "Double Twelve".

Lu Yao can also take advantage of this period of time to upgrade the QQ online store industry.

He took out his phone and sent a message to his boss Chen Xing: "How are the new factory and production line going after the New Year?"

Boss Chen Xing always responds to questions about work in seconds: "Progress is good. We estimate that we will be able to start assembly and production in May."

Lu Yao gave a thumbs up in return.

He and boss Chen Xing jointly invested in upgrading the industry.

At this stage in 2014, there were actually quite a few companies investing in R&D. It was not until the end of 2016 and 2017 that a few companies entered this vertical track and developed various products suitable for women.

This is because between 2016 and 2018,
At first, these things were rejected and resisted by many girls, but in the next few years, many girls began to use these products openly.

On a certain Hongshu website, there are even girls who claim to be avant-garde and generously share their experience of using the product, which also provides a lot of "paper talk" material for many men who browse Hongshu.

You have to know that it is also very popular in some niche circles, and the experiences shared by those avant-garde girls just happen to fit the preferences of some netizens.

Of course, those avant-garde girls actually know the existence of this group. They do this to establish their own image and attract traffic. The Internet has helped them figure out how to do this.

In addition to this factor, there is an important reason why Lu Yao wants to carry out industrial upgrading.

Many girls who went into the sea in that paradise became unemployed princesses overnight, but they could not work in other industries - many girls thought that they could earn enough money and then go ashore before going into the sea, but the reality is that only a few girls can go ashore after going into the sea.

Accustomed to making money quickly and spending it lavishly, they are unable to adapt to a normal life.

So how can they find jobs again?
The emerging Internet industry is the direction for their re-employment.

Big shows on various small live broadcast platforms began to grow wildly in the corners of the Internet, such as "Moonlight Live", "Banana Show", "Heineken Hot Show" and "max software" were rampant on the Android side.

Lu Yao would definitely not engage in these industries, as these industries would be hit hard after two years of development. But since these industries are engaged in live streaming, they must be kept active.

The market that Lu Yao is targeting is the new and novel gadgets needed for the whole life.

For this purpose, he specially talked to the programmer Di Ge, intending to get him to join in developing a remote wearable plug-in that can be used by long-distance couples. Di Ge expressed great interest in this.

Everything Lu Yao sells is legal and compliant, but how these things are used after they are sold is something Lu Yao cannot "control".

Also because the paradise in the Pearl River Delta was swept away, Mr. Lei in Guanyun, who used to be mainly engaged in offline supply, lost his main source of income, so he also entered the online store track after the New Year.

Boss Lei is a big spender and has a wide network of contacts. He is willing to spend money to seize the market.

In just a few days, all merchants in the QQ underwear market felt tremendous pressure, and Lu Yao was no exception.

Fortunately, Lu Yao had already thought of a countermeasure.

Since Boss Lei wants to spend money to take over the domestic QQ clothing market, let him spend the money. Lu Yao wants to see how much money he has.

In any case, Lu Yao would not join him in lowering prices to engage in a price war, and higher prices could also screen out some "mildly mentally retarded" online shoppers.

As for the sales profits of the QQ online store, Lu Yao plans to get them back from overseas e-commerce.

In fact, overseas e-commerce appeared earlier than domestic e-commerce, but overseas e-commerce has not developed as rapidly as domestic e-commerce, and its services and distribution are not as complete as those in China. The prices of their products are often so high that even local people overseas are scratching their heads.

In this case, domestic products can open up the market with better quality and lower prices.

Lu Yao has done some research. For the same set of QQ battle suit, he sells it for 68 yuan in China, making a % profit.

If he sells it overseas and reduces the price by half, but changes the currency unit to US dollars, his profit can reach a terrifying 1,000 percent. The key is that this price is already considered "low" abroad.

It's not even as much as the "tip" they give for a meal.

Of course, there are still many details to be sorted out, such as delivery, after-sales, overseas warehousing and so on; but in the face of huge profits, these problems are minor problems.
