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

Chapter 212 After the Annual Meeting (Please Order)

The larger a company becomes, the more formulaic many aspects of its operations become. There is a set range for what should be done and how it should be done.

When Penguin first released QQ, Mr. Jack Ma could go online and become a girl to chat with you. WeChat initially used "People Nearby" and "Shake" to perform obscene social networking to open up the market.

When Xiaomi was first founded, Lei Jun always made shocking remarks. His classic sayings such as “It’s amazing”, “This is a rip-off”, and “Our competitors are XX” are still popular.

But after achieving success, they either stop appearing in public or disappear.

Otherwise, when he appears again, he will no longer be the young man who always says "it's amazing".

Lu Yao is the same now.

If it was an internal company annual meeting, Lu Yao would definitely take these girls to have fun, but now even the company annual meeting has become a marketing tool for Lu Yao. How can a company demonstrate its strength?

The purpose is naturally to make the scene grand and make netizens and passers-by think that this company is really awesome and rich. The key is that Lu Yao did this marketing activity just to increase traffic, not to sell anything to netizens in front of the screen.

This is also a mistake that many large companies often make when doing marketing.

They think that by making a thing fancy and giving it a high-sounding but nonsensical name, they can sell a product worth hundreds of thousands for over a million. Even if someone wrongly buys the product, it will still be a harm to the brand itself.

Real brand marketing is actually about creating expectations by raising the image, so that all product lines under the company's name can be empowered with value. At the same time, the things used to enhance the image must be genuine.

Lu Yao’s marketing this time is to use the “Annual Meeting” as a medium to convey to netizens outside the company the concept that their company’s internet celebrities are awesome and of high quality.

When their company promotes some internet celebrities or organizes some activities in the future, it will naturally bring traffic and discussion.

In this way, many corporate companies that need media assistance in the future will subconsciously think of Lu Yao’s MCN company.

Although you can make money from the audience, it is hard-earned money after all.

The real money making part of Lu Yao's MCN comes from merchants.

As long as the traffic pool in Lu Yao's hands is large enough, he can keep the price low enough when negotiating with merchants. Many merchants are willing to cooperate with top MCNs like Lu Yao even if it means just breaking even or making a slight loss.

Because a company's healthy cash flow can be used to obtain bank loans, and it is easy to extract profits through the upstream and downstream supply chains.

If it is a listed company, a company with so much cash flow but losing money will be more popular with investors. This shows that the company is rapidly expanding its market share, and there is still a lot of stock in this market, which is a blue ocean.

After the investors' money comes in, the rising stock price will lure in money from big and small investors, and finally the whole pot is stewed.

Everyone makes money.

Doing business now is no longer a model of buying low and selling high, in and out. The real way for companies to make money is outside of trade.

This kind of trick is nothing new even in 2015. Many companies that go overseas other than to the mainland use this method. In addition, there are some dirtier and wilder tricks that require stronger personal connections.

The entities under Lu Yao's name will also use similar business models, but MCN, an organization without entity support, can only undertake the downstream work of the entities under these models.

The steady and grand style of the annual meeting continues.

As the host played the highlights of the internet celebrities and invited them to the stage to give speeches, many internet celebrities from the MCN company took this opportunity to show themselves openly.

Bella Zhou, who has a cool and aloof personality, talked about the difficulties her peers faced on stage. Her current cool and exotic appearance made people feel extremely distressed.

The gentle and experienced Cheng Xinyu talked about the changes in her after coming to the company and her understanding of the Internet. Her sincere love for netizens once again proved her nickname of "intimate sister".

The lively and lovely Gao Chuning even had to tiptoe to get the microphone when she went on stage to give a speech, and then said angrily: "You tall girls are so annoying~"

Her cute and lovely appearance made people on and off the stage, online and offline, smile knowingly.

In addition, the fresh and lovely Huang Jianing, Ye Meixiao who has long legs and a figure like a supermodel, and other newcomers of the company also took the stage to speak, allowing more people to get to know them.

Lu Yao has been paying attention to the changes in data online from the audience.

Nowadays, there is special heat crawler software on the Internet that can view the changes in information dynamics on the Internet in real time.

On Weibo, WeChat Moments, and even public accounts, the keywords about Lv Yao's MCN company are becoming increasingly popular. Red carpet photos and annual meeting photos disclosed by many media outlets are quickly becoming popular in different circles.

Communities such as Tianya, Hupu, and Tieba have also launched voting for the MCN beauty rankings.

Some people have started to post secondary creative pictures and videos on otaku gathering places such as Station A and Station B.

Faced with such huge and rapid traffic, early Internet practitioners quickly began to engage in the business of taking advantage of the traffic, and continuously released videos using the label of Lu Yao MCN Company.

Some of them are digging into Lv Yao's history of making a fortune, while others are digging into the internet celebrities' routes to success. They summarize the necessary factors for becoming an internet celebrity in the video, in order to harvest those young people who want to follow the internet celebrity route.

This is the "Matthew effect" of the Internet.

When the traffic effect you create is big enough, naturally many Internet bloggers will come like flies to add to your traffic.

Of course, this theory also applies to negative news.

Therefore, a mature media marketing practitioner must not only learn how to create momentum, but also learn how to predict the actions of Internet users so as to make targeted responses.

Lu Yao made such a big fuss tonight, and he had already been on guard against someone coming out to slander and defame the internet celebrity under his name.

So when he was off the stage, he was always monitoring the online public opinion, but fortunately, after the award ceremony was over, there was no negative public opinion on the Internet.

But Lu Yao did not let his guard down.

He put down his phone and said to Zhu Junyan, who was sitting at the same table, "After tonight, keep an eye on changes on the Internet. If you find any news that slanders Cheng Xinyu and the others, you must respond in a timely manner."

Zhu Junyan smiled and approached Lu Yao and said, "Master, don't worry about this. I have already prepared for it."

Zhu Junyan has been working with Lu Yao for so long that he has gained a lot of experience in marketing. Lu Yao is really relieved to have him in charge of the MCN work.

After that, there will be eating, drinking and fun interactive sessions.

Because Lu Yao was the last one to go on stage to give a speech, everyone was quite restrained beforehand and no one forced Lu Yao to drink.

After the performance, Lu Yao came to the stage at the invitation of the host and began to talk to the audience and the camera: "Well, thank you so much for the business leaders who came to our company's annual meeting. Thank you so much for the netizens watching our company's annual meeting live."

"In fact, the reason for holding this annual meeting is, firstly, to reward the company members who have worked hard for a year, and secondly, to introduce our company members to more friends."

Afterwards, Lu Yao expressed some views on the current situation and future development of the internet celebrity industry.

In 2015, internet celebrities and stars were two completely different ecosystems.

During this period, people inherently believed that celebrities were all high-class, glamorous, and shining.

And what about internet celebrities?

They are funny, clowns, and peasants who are not worthy of being on stage.

This is closely related to the way Internet celebrities became famous in the old days. Internet celebrities such as Feng Jie, Furong Jie, and Gan Lulu, who became famous by making fools of themselves, left a very bad first impression on people.

Lu Yao stood under the spotlight, with camera flashes flashing in the audience and black lenses pointed at him.

Standing here, I can’t actually see the people in the audience clearly.

I also couldn’t see clearly the countless netizens behind the camera.

Looking out from here, it is as if I were once standing in the torrent of the world, looking forward to the direction of the future.

After Lu Yao briefly described the development of the Internet celebrity industry, he said in a particularly sincere and touching tone and voice: "Those of you who know me must understand that I am also an Internet celebrity who made my fortune through scandals."

"But as time went by, I gradually became an Internet wishing pool. I even started to help fulfill some netizens' small wishes under the influence of everyone."

"Because I know that it must be very difficult for everyone who is facing life."

Lu Yao's sincere and moving words immediately silenced many netizens in front of the screen.

Originally they came for the beauties, and then watched the beauties' talent shows and the fun interactions on stage with some business tycoons. They found it quite interesting and watched it purely as a variety show to be enjoyed while eating.

But Lu Yao's words made many young people break down and remain silent.

In 2015, many people born in the 90s have begun to step out of the protection of their parents, take the tickets bought by their parents, leave their hometowns, and start to face life.

But Mom and Dad, the world outside is completely different from what is described in books.

Hard work does not always pay off.

Being kind will lead to being bullied.

Life is so hard...

Lu Yao recounted the many broken moments he experienced while studying abroad, which made Zhou Bella and many others in the audience turn their heads away and wipe their tears. Many netizens who were watching the live broadcast in the dim and simple rental house where only the sound of the mobile phone speaker could be heard, or in the factory dormitories, felt their eyes sore as they listened.

When the defense was broken, even the number of barrages on major platforms dropped sharply.

Lu Yao continued in front of the camera: "Some people are born with everything without having to do anything, while some people can't even reach the starting point of some people in their entire lives..."

"I have no intention of accusing the fate of this world, but those who dare to stand in front of the camera and try their best to find a way out for their lives are undoubtedly warriors in their own lives! Because even the poorest and humblest people have self-respect and self-love, so no matter what method they use to charge towards fate, they need great luck."

At this point, Lu Yao raised his hand and touched his heart, and said sincerely: "So here, please allow me to pay tribute to all the warriors who are fighting against life."

some of--

Naturally, this also includes Lu Yao himself.

With these last words, Lu Yao bowed deeply to the audience and the camera.

After a brief silence, the audience suddenly broke out into thunderous applause. In the surging crowd, Bella Zhou pursed her lips with tears in her eyes, and raised her arms high to applaud Lu Yao.

She sympathized deeply with Lu Yao.

Because her life is really not easy.

On the Internet, the comments on various live streaming platforms suddenly surged like a tsunami after a brief lull.

"Salute to the warriors!"

"Salute to the warriors!"

"Tribute!"

The endless barrage of comments flooded the screens of all the netizens watching the live broadcast, and they had to turn off some of the barrage of comments in order to see the live broadcast.

As the live videos were intercepted and spread, more and more people began to flock to those live broadcast websites. Some smaller website servers were instantly overloaded and began to report errors.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Everything that needs to be said and spread has been said and spread, and this MCN annual meeting has ended successfully.

Next, the host came on stage to give a speech, and then the dance troupe went up to do their closing performance.

In the audience, as soon as Lu Yao came back, many people gathered around him and applauded. The first to gather around him were the bigwigs in the business community. They were extremely sensitive to business opportunities and public opinion. If Lu Yao's MCN company was a listed company, then his speech just now would make his company's stock start to soar.

Even so, after tonight, many venture capital companies and investors will pay attention to Lu Yao's company. In the future, whether it is being invested in or cooperating with others, Lu Yao's MCN company will be in an advantageous position.

Because his style has been established.

In 2015, Internet celebrities were still viewed with tinted glasses. Many celebrities and upper-class people spoke of them with contempt and ridicule.

But tonight, Lu Yao's words not only vindicated the stigmatized internet celebrity, but will also attract a large number of internet celebrity fans who will spontaneously help Lu Yao publicize what he said tonight.

It is foreseeable that after tonight, many people will post updates on social platforms such as WeChat Moments and Weibo - "We are all people who are fighting against life" and "Cheers to the Warriors".

"Line brother" and "Warrior brother" will become new words on the Internet.

Especially now that it is the end of the year, many people who have worked hard for a year but did not make much money or stayed away from home to celebrate the New Year will definitely feel the same way.

Even MOBA players will resonate with the keyword "lane" and then interact with each other.

no doubt.

Lu Yao's marketing tonight was successful.

He used the old pervert as a fulcrum and elevated the theme by resonating with the masses, allowing tonight's annual meeting performance to have the ability to break the circle.

As for to what extent it will break the circle, Lu Yao is not sure.

Because after coming down from the stage, Lu Yao had to face life - the bigwigs from all walks of life who were invited came to toast him one after another, and after a few rounds, Lu Yao felt a little numb.

The current laning situation is that even if Faker comes, he has to stay here.

Then Zhu Junyan's group and company executives such as Xiao Nali stopped the crowd from drinking and urged others to drink. Everyone drank happily, and the annual meeting that was originally scheduled to end at 9:30 lasted until 10:30 due to the excitement.

After seeing off all the guests and employees, Lu Yao finally had some time to rest.

"call--"

There are indeed a lot of Lu Yao tonight.

He leaned against the front of his Land Rover, took out a cigarette, lit it, and let out a long, foul breath, exhausted.

Halfway through the cigarette, Xiao Nali, who was also feeling a little dizzy, forced herself to come over with her top internet celebrity.

Lu Yao asked, "Have they all been sent away?"

Xiao Nali also breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Lu Yao for a cigarette before saying, "Yeah, wow, those guys can really drink. I couldn't handle the hangover pills I took beforehand."

what?
Why didn’t Lu Yao think of this!

regret!

Now I regret it very much!
Lu Yao said: "Buy me some hangover medicine later. I have completely forgotten about this."

Xiao Nali smiled and said, "Who knew you were so honest. Okay, Bella Xinyu, you two are responsible for sending the boss back."

Gao Chuning drank the least, so she jumped up and said, "I want to go too!"

Xiao Nali held Gao Chuning's head and said with a smile, "No, I'm too drunk to drive. Please take me home."

Gao Chuning was not convinced: "Why? There are so many people here, why don't you find someone else? I want to go back with Xinyu!"

But Xiao Nali didn't give Gao Chuning a chance to resist. She hugged her neck and dragged Gao Chuning to her car. While dragging Gao Chuning away from her, she waved and said, "Boss Zhu, the others are in your hands. Make sure they can get home safely."

Zhu Junyan waved his hand and shouted, "Don't worry."

Cheng Xinyu took Lu Yao's car keys, opened the door, and sat in the driver's seat. Zhou Bella sat in the passenger seat, and the back seat belonged to Lu Yao alone.

Lu Yao didn't say anything. He got in the car and asked Cheng Xinyu to drive to Yinhua Plaza.

Lin Yongzhen now also lives in an apartment upstairs in Yinhua Plaza, and in another larger apartment suite on the same floor. No one knows what means Lin Yongzhen used on Wang Shu, but Wang Shu has no objection and is quite happy instead.

The Land Rover drove through the increasingly sparse city streets of Shangnan and headed towards Yinhua Plaza.

Whenever they arrive in China, people working in Shangnan will return to their hometowns, so the usually bustling city becomes unusually deserted.

Lu Yao looked out the window, his mind full of mixed thoughts.

But after the car stopped at the underground parking lot of Yinhua Plaza, the messy thoughts in Lu Yao's mind were cleared. He looked at Zhou Bella and Cheng Xinyu in front of him: "Do you want to go up together?"

Eh?
Zhou Bella suddenly became flustered. This, this, this... is this possible?

Although she had long accepted that Lu Yao would not be hers alone, suddenly being with Cheng Xinyu and Brother Lu... this was still too much of a shock to Zhou Bella's bottom line.

Seeing this, Cheng Xinyu leaned against the car door and supported her head, enjoying Zhou Bella's embarrassment with a smile.

so good.

Such shyness and timidity.

How do you say that?

There is not much truth in the world, and a woman's blush is worth more than a lot of words.

For many experienced drivers and experienced drivers, this kind of embarrassed and shy look is the best.

Cheng Xinyu deliberately provoked: "Then I will go up with the boss~ Don't you want to stay with the boss?"

Zhou Bella's brain was almost overloaded. The left brain was saying no, while the right brain was agreeing. So even the words she said began to conflict with each other: "But the three of us are still... I, I can do it!"

At this time, Lu Yao suddenly laughed and said, "It's not three people, it's four people."

what?
Bella Zhou's brain crashed.

……

Lu Yao led Cheng Xinyu and Zhou Bella to Lin Yongzhen's house and knocked on the door. Lin Yongzhen opened the door and smiled behind the door: "It's not like you don't know the password, huh?"

Lin Yongzhen glanced behind Lu Yao and then looked at Lu Yao: "You brought two."

"come in."

Lin Yongzhen returned to the living room. Lu Yao asked Cheng Xinyu to bring Zhou Bella, who had been numb since the computer crashed, in first. He came in last and closed the door.

Although they live in the same apartment building, the décor of Lin Yongzhen's home is completely different from that of Sister Wang's. Sister Wang's home prefers bright and warm wooden-style furniture, which looks very cozy when paired with simple white furniture.

Lin Yongzhen's home has walnut floors and white walls. The furniture in the room is mostly decorated in a medieval style with brown, black and evergreen plants.

This style of decoration is stylish and has a high tolerance for chaos.

Combined with the various art paintings hanging on the walls, the overall decoration style looks particularly comfortable and stylish.

Cheng Xinyu and Zhou Bella sat on the sofa in Lin Yongzhen's house, and Lin Yongzhen brought out some hangover soup from the kitchen. She glanced at the living room and smiled, "Why are you so reserved? You all drank a lot of wine at the annual meeting. Come over and have some hangover soup, and then take a bath and you'll feel very comfortable."

As she spoke, Lin Yongzhen turned on the speakers at home. Soothing and moody music echoed in the dim and stylish room. An ambiguous atmosphere began to spread, relaxing Zhou Bella's nervous mood.

After drinking the sobering soup, Cheng Xinyu pulled Zhou Bella into the bathroom, and Lin Yongzhen gave her nightgown to Cheng Xinyu and Zhou Bella.

Lu Yao went to Lin Yongzhen's master bedroom bathroom to take a shower and wash up.

Girls usually take a long time to shower, not to mention there are two girls crowded in the bathroom over there.

So when Zhou Bella and Cheng Xinyu came out of the shower, they saw that the coffee table in the living room had been moved away, and a shorter and smaller coffee table was placed on the carpet, with different drinks and liquors on the coffee table and the carpet.

Lu Yao and Lin Yongzhen sat face to face on the carpet, with soft and comfortable pillows beside them and candlesticks lit around the carpet.

In the dim living room, Lu Yao and Lin Yongzhen chatted leisurely under the candlelight. When Lin Yongzhen saw Cheng Xinyu and Zhou Bella coming out, she couldn't help but waved: "Come and do it."

This was completely different from the unclear and extremely chaotic scenes that Zhou Bella had imagined in her mind. The current atmosphere was like a tea party among good friends.

So Zhou Bella's tense heart gradually relaxed.

After Zhou Bella and Cheng Xinyu also sat down, Lin Yongzhen smiled and said, "I watched the live broadcast of the annual meeting tonight. You all performed very well. Of course, the best one was you."

Lin Yongzhen looked at Lu Yao.

Lu Yao bit the straw in his mouth and drank the raw coconut juice: "What are you talking about? I have always been very good."

Lin Yongzhen smiled. This guy started to act frivolously after he got off the stage.

The four of them sat around the small coffee table and chatted idly. Lin Yongzhen and Cheng Xinyu were both good at chatting, so the thinking group never ran out of topics to talk about when they sat together. Even Zhou Bella, who was a little shy, gradually joined in the girls' topic.

After chatting for a while, Cheng Xinyu suddenly asked: "Sister Yongzhen, your back..."

Lin Yongzhen openly showed the scars all over her back: "This is from being whipped."

Cheng Xinyu frowned: "This..."

Lin Yongzhen smiled and said, "It's all over."

Cheng Xinyu asked again: "Does it still hurt?"

Lin Yongzhen suddenly approached Cheng Xinyu and said, "Then try touching it."

Cheng Xinyu reached out her hand carefully, and when her fingertips touched the rough and bumpy scar proliferation, Lin Yongzhen suddenly pulled back and let out a soft "ah".

This frightened Cheng Xinyu so much that she immediately retracted her hand.

Lin Yongzhen turned around and looked at Cheng Xinyu with a charming smile: "You scared me~"

Cheng Xinyu suddenly felt angry and rushed over: "Sister Yongzhen, you are so bad!"

The little fist punched Lin Yongzhen, who smiled faintly and suddenly hugged Cheng Xinyu, then looked at her face to face.

Even Cheng Xinyu felt shy under Lin Yongzhen's indescribable gaze - she was actually teased by a woman and her face turned red, and then Lin Yongzhen kissed her.

Lin Yongzhen and Cheng Xinyu were communicating with each other in an ecstasy. Zhou Bella, who was chatting, was unable to switch to the topic at once. She just stared at Lin Yongzhen and Zhou Bella with an empty mind.

soon.

The two of them were entangled together like two beautiful white pythons.

Zhou Bella's face turned red quickly, and then her eyes seemed to be welded shut and she couldn't move them away.

Then, Lu Yao's voice rang in her ears.

"Do you want to continue watching there, or come to my place?"
