Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 439 No Little Aunt!
After washing up, Yang Chaoyue walked out of the bathroom with wet hair. Her hair was a little frizzy because of rubbing, and she looked like a puppy that had just been caught in the rain.

"come over."

Meng Bai pulled her in front of him, picked up a dry towel, and helped her wipe the water off her face and hair.

Yang Chaoyue was not short, and she could see Meng Bai by just looking up when they stood face to face. Facing the man's face so close, she lowered her head shyly, and occasionally looked up to take a quick look.

The boss was really helping her wipe her hair, a scene she had only imagined in her dreams before.

I'm so happy!

Meng Bai naturally noticed the little girl's "peek", but he didn't expose her. He helped her to smooth her hair and then said, "Okay."

"what?"

Yang Chaoyue was stunned for a moment before she reacted. She quickly took a step back and looked at the mirror beside her - it was still a little messy, but much better than before.

Anyway, I'm wearing a hat, so it shouldn't be noticeable.

"thank you boss."

"What's there to thank for?"

Meng Bai said casually, his eyes staying on Yang Chaoyue.

I have to say that compared to the little girl who just came to Arc Light to find a job, Yang Chaoyue has indeed grown a lot now.

Her face, which used to be slightly chubby, has become thinner and more feminine. Her skinny figure has become quite sizable thanks to adequate nutrition and stage exercise in recent years.

More importantly, there has been a world of difference in her temperament. She no longer has the timid and rustic look she used to have. She has become much more cheerful and generous, and really looks a bit like a star.

As expected, it is said that fame in the entertainment industry can bring good fortune, and this girl is the best proof of this.

Thinking of this, Meng Bai smiled and said to her: "How was it, Chaoyue, was it fun just now?"

Yang Chaoyue's mouth sank: "Boss, you're the only one who thinks this is funny. My hands are still sore and there's a weird taste in my mouth..."

"I mean before that."

"Before..." Yang Chaoyue subconsciously recalled the strange but intoxicating pleasure, her face flushed, "It's, it's okay."

"Not bad? That means you are not satisfied. Well, come back with me tonight, there will be more fun things to do."

"No, no!" Yang Chaoyue waved her hands quickly, "Sister Meng will definitely take me to her place tonight. She knows I have nothing to do tonight. If I make up another excuse, she will definitely be suspicious."

Yang Chaoyue didn't know what Meng Ziyi would think about getting involved with her best friend's uncle, but she would definitely not be willing to accept it if it were her.

Sister Meng is a very good friend and I don’t want to make her sad.

"Then tomorrow." Meng Bai said.

"Not tomorrow either." Yang Chaoyue bit her lip lightly, "The team has an activity schedule tomorrow, I have to go with them."

What's the reason for this Korean entertainment style?

Meng Bai shook his head slightly to get rid of this inexplicable sense of déjà vu, and reached out to pull Yang Chaoyue to him: "It's okay, I'll have someone talk to your agent and ask for leave."

"do not want!"

Yang Chaoyue blurted out a refusal, but then she reacted, looked at Meng Bai cautiously, and said softly: "Boss, it's not suitable. I have the highest popularity in the team. If I don't go, there will be no traffic."

"Ha!" Meng Bai laughed, "You are quite responsible. You are not the captain, and this limited group will be disbanded in a few months, so why worry so much?"

"That's not the boss. I'm not talking about responsibility to the group, but responsibility to the profession." Yang Chaoyue's face was inexplicably serious. "I am now an idol artist and a member of Rocket Girls 101."

After she finished speaking, she looked straight at Meng Bai again: "Just like when I was in Arc Light, since I make money from this, I have to be responsible for my work."

Meng Bai was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he remembered - although this girl looked cute and seemed like she had not received much education and had a silly look, she actually had a lot of ideas of her own.

"Is work more important than me?" Meng Bai asked deliberately.

"You can't compare them like that." Yang Chaoyue was not fooled at all and said without hesitation: "The boss is the boss, and the work is the work. They are different."

"No, I have to choose one."

Yang Chaoyue's face wrinkled and she said aggrievedly: "Boss, are you forcing me~~"

Seeing her pitiful expression, Meng Bai couldn't help but laugh. He paused for a while, looked at her again and said, "You just said that you have to be responsible for your career. You are still an idol now, and idols can't fall in love. Do you know this?"

"I know." Yang Chaoyue nodded, then looked at Meng Bai: "Then tell me, boss, am I your girlfriend now?"

"Well..." Meng Bai was suddenly asked a question and was a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly and asked back: "Well, we just did that, do you think it counts?"

Yang Chaoyue was too inexperienced after all, so she didn't react and just thought that the boss had acquiesced. However, this was not the point she wanted to make.

"Boss, if I count, does that include Sister Li Qin?" Yang Chaoyue looked at the silent Meng Bai, and continued, "And Sister Yi Tong, Sister Song Zhi, and..."

"Stop..." Meng Bai hurriedly stopped her, "Where did it come from? And where did you hear it?"

"Boss, I worked in the company for more than a year." Yang Chaoyue said quietly.

"Tsk..."

Meng Bai sighed and said, "Fuck, I forgot about this."

As the receptionist of Arc Light, this girl has seen many women come to see her boss. After a long time, she can always distinguish different groups of people.

I didn't expect that this little girl would point it out at this time. Even though Meng Bai was thick-skinned, he was more or less embarrassed.

"It's okay, boss. I still like you very much, and I'm willing to play those...those games with you." Yang Chaoyue looked at him and chuckled, "But I still want to do my job well first. Only in this way can I continue on this path."

Meng Bai looked at Yang Chaoyue in surprise. He didn't expect that this girl was so ambitious in career.

That's not right, it shouldn't be called career ambition, it should be called enterprising spirit. After all, she doesn't have any high aspirations for the profession of artist, she just wants to be as stable as possible while her popularity is high.

In this way, even if the popularity fades in the future, she can still go as far as possible relying on the energy she has accumulated now.

As for following Meng Bai and becoming a beautiful canary, she had never thought about it.

When she was a factory worker, she had worked so hard that she never thought of hooking up with a "second-generation factory worker". Moreover, if she really did so, it would be like pinning her entire future life on Meng Bai's love for her.

It would be fine if it was someone else, but she really had no confidence in her boss, who was such a playboy.

So even though she liked Meng Bai very much, she still wanted to retain some of her independence, even if it would be a little harder.

Although he didn't have the ability to read minds, Meng Bai probably understood the young girl's thoughts after thinking about it. He wasn't angry, but felt that the girl was quite smart.

It's better to have brains, stupid people are not welcome anywhere.

But you are still a little girl after all. Do you really think you can leave by yourself if you want to?

Although he had a plan in mind, Meng Bai still said on the surface: "Okay, I won't delay your work."

Yang Chaoyue was delighted when she heard this: "Thank you, boss!"

She thanked him cheerfully, then lowered her head slightly and said shyly, "Then I'll talk to the boss when I'm not busy in a few days... I'll keep it a secret from Sister Meng next time."

After saying this, she felt her face getting hot and she quickly trotted away.

Watching the girl leave, Meng Bai felt that he had been wrong. This girl actually had deep feelings for him, but she was just more independent in character.

With this in mind, he called Yang Ming and said, "Brother, Xiao Yang's group will expire in more than half a year. I think we should build a team in advance and start planning how to develop after her group ends...Okay, let's talk about it in detail later."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Bai suddenly felt like he was a bit like the villain in the story who secretly deceived the little girl.

I glanced at the mirror beside me. Hmm, it must be an illusion. How could such a handsome guy be a villain?

...The two of them returned to the outside one after the other. Meng Ziyi was now able to ride his pony by himself.

Seeing the two coming back, she controlled her pony to come over and asked in confusion, "Why did you take so long... Hey? Chaoyue, did you change your clothes?"

Meng Ziyi looked at Yang Chaoyue who had obviously changed her clothes, then looked at Meng Bai who was calm on the other side, and couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

Yang Chaoyue panicked subconsciously, but fortunately she was no longer in the state of being overwhelmed by the pleasure in her body. She had already thought of an excuse: "My original shorts rubbed my legs a bit when I sat on the horse, and the boss just took me for a walk and I was sweating a lot, so I just changed my clothes."

"He's taking you around?"

Meng Ziyi glanced at Meng Bai, feeling inexplicably unhappy, "He has ulterior motives... Come on, Chaoyue, I can ride now, I'll take you, so that some people won't take advantage of you."

After saying that, she climbed down from the pony a little clumsily, then took Yang Chaoyue's hand and went to find the coach to find a horse for her.

Meng Bai didn't care about being "scolded". He had already taken most of the advantages he was supposed to take. The only thing left was the final meal, which was also a matter of time. He was not in a hurry at all.

The big white horse saw its temporary owner coming back, and strolled over to look at him, as if asking if he still wanted to ride it.

"No hurry, I just suffered some damage, let me rest and recover first."

Meng Bai patted the horse's body to calm it down, then lay down comfortably on a beach chair in the rest area nearby to bask in the sun.

Anyway, he has booked half of the horse farm for the whole day, so he has plenty of time.

Equestrianism is a sport that consumes a lot of energy. Meng Ziyi practiced seriously for a whole day, and by the time he had dinner at night, he wanted to eat a horse.

The effect of practice is still very significant. She can now independently control the horse to walk steadily. After all, it is her first time to learn it, so she needs to practice slowly.

However, Yang Chaoyue, who had originally come with her, made progress a little faster. Although she did not study very seriously and wasted a lot of time, her progress was almost the same as Meng Ziyi's, and she was even more proficient than her.

This girl has good athletic talent. After her debut last year, she participated in Tencent's "Supernova Games" with her teammates and won several medals.

It's just that the rhythm is not very good, which makes singing and dancing quite useless. He has a lot in common with Meng Ziyi, who calls himself "Lark".

"Well, I'm finally full."

Meng Ziyi patted his belly, and the hunger before the meal finally subsided: "It's getting late, little uncle, Chaoyue and I will go back first."

"Chaoyue will come to your place tonight?" Meng Bai asked casually.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Meng Ziyi looked at him warily.

Meng Bai couldn't help but smile when he saw this: "Nothing, just asking. Do you need a ride?"

"No, I drove here."

Meng Ziyi has a driver's license and passed the test a long time ago. She also bought a new car not long ago, a white Mercedes-Benz G, which is in stark contrast to her body shape.

Yang Chaoyue stood behind Meng Ziyi, looking at her defensive look, and secretly smiled at Meng Bai.

"Okay, then be careful on the road. You're tired after a day, go back and rest early." Meng Bai casually reminded, and raised his eyebrows at Xiao Chaoyue when no one was paying attention.

The man and woman exchanged words in silence.

Sitting in the passenger seat of the G-Class, Yang Chaoyue watched the lights of Meng Bai's car slowly driving away, and his eyes also drifted away.

"What are you looking at?"

Meng Ziyi glanced at her bestie and asked.

"Nothing." Yang Chaoyue retracted her gaze and turned around to show her usual silly smile, "Let's go! Go home and rest!"

The car started slowly and drove on the way back to the city.

Meng Ziyi drove in silence for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Chaoyue, do you like my uncle?"

"what?"

Yang Chaoyue was caught off guard by her bestie's sudden question. Fortunately, she had prepared for this question and played dumb and said, "Boss? Of course I like it. Don't you like it?"

"I'm not talking about that kind of love, I mean... Oh, forget it." Meng Ziyi also felt that his question was a bit nonsensical, "Anyway, just remember, stay away from my uncle."

"Why? What's the problem, boss?"

"That's not the case, but he's definitely not a good choice for a relationship. He's just a playboy."

Yang Chaoyue's eyes flickered in the night: "It's normal for a boss to be fickle."

"This..." Meng Ziyi paused. It was really difficult for her to refute this.

If you want to say something good about Meng Bai, he is too philandering. If you want to say something bad about him, he is top notch except for his philandering.

Meng Ziyi asked himself, if he were a stranger, he would not have any bad impression of his uncle.

"Anyway, just stay away from him." Meng Ziyi muttered, "I don't want to start calling my friend 'little aunt' after a while."

"Little aunt..."

Yang Chaoyue repeated it in her mind, and inexplicably felt that this name was quite interesting.

She didn't think much of it at first, but after Meng Ziyi said that, she really wanted to hear him call her like that.

Yang Chaoyue supported his head with one hand, looked at the gradually brightening street scene, and fell into beautiful fantasy.
-
The National Day holiday has passed in a flash, and those who need to go to work continue to work, and those who need to go to school continue to go to school. However, everyone is still full of enthusiasm for this year's military parade, and the enthusiasm has not completely dissipated even after the holiday.

The 70th anniversary ceremony showed the world the "sword edge" of the great Eastern country.

As the country becomes stronger, Chinese stocks listed in the US stock market have also surged, including Pinduoduo, the most dazzling star among Chinese stocks listed in the US.

Since the beginning of the year, as the shareholder lock-up period ended smoothly, Pinduoduo's stock price began to slowly climb. Coupled with the recent surge, the stock price directly broke through the $40 mark.

This also means that Pinduoduo's total market value has reached US$470 billion, surpassing JD.com to become the second largest e-commerce platform in China.

However, the reaction of the capital market was not that big. Firstly, many people had anticipated this a few months ago. Secondly, JD.com and Pinduoduo have different positioning and still occupy their own market share in the high-end field.

For an operator like Huang Zheng, ranking changes without expansion of power are of little significance, but for shareholders like Meng Bai, it is good news as their shares become more valuable.

However, except for Tencent's slight reduction in holdings, the shares held by the other institutions have not moved at all. Just kidding, anyone can see that Pinduoduo's potential is far from being fully developed. Who would sell at this time?

As a shareholder of Pinduoduo, Meng Bai's net worth has naturally risen. Although this year's rich list has not yet been released, based on last year's data, his ranking will at least move up 300 to 500 places.

I don’t know if it was stimulated by this, but Evergrande also issued an announcement announcing the start of the acquisition of Ruyi Films. At the same time, it also officially launched a new paid streaming platform “Hengshi Video”, claiming to create China’s Netflix.

Originally, people were not very interested in this new platform. After all, the online film and television market is now almost completely divided up by the three major platforms plus Mango TV. There is not much room for growth in free services, let alone paid ones.

But soon after, Heng Video announced its latest developments through its official Weibo account, which included teaming up with Arclight Pictures' latest "Tracing Back Trilogy" series to create a high-quality "Misty Theater" with suspense as the main theme.

Many people immediately thought of the "Strange Suspense Theater" that Qiyi TV has been promoting in recent years. This is a head-on collision.

But many people are also muttering in their hearts, the main work of this new platform is Arc Light, and the main work of Qiyi TV is also Arc Light, isn’t this just the left hand hitting the right hand?

Regardless of the online reviews, at least it has made the newly established "Heng Video" a little popular. Then, "Heng Video" announced that the website will officially enter a new operation from the New Year's Day next year, and then released many plans for next year one by one.

Of course, Evergrande also knows that as a new platform, it is not appropriate to charge fees right from the start, so it launched a new benefit. All users can buy a quarterly membership for one yuan, and the platform will give them another three months.

In fact, it is equivalent to buying a half-year membership for one dollar, which is very humane.

At least, Heng Video also has Tencent's copyright library. Spending one yuan to become a member can enjoy it, which is quite attractive to many viewers.
