After rebirth, I only date bad girls

Chapter 383 The Future Rich Woman, The Current Simp

The Tong Jingcheng of today is not the super internet celebrity who later drove a Ferrari SF90, was known as the nemesis of female internet celebrities, and was revered as the 'founding father' by countless male fans.

He's only just started getting into outdoor live streaming. He was introduced to it by someone with the ID "Ying Xiaojie," who is generally referred to as a mentor among online celebrities.

Later, after Tong Jincheng became successful, he opened his own MCN agency, which only recruited female internet celebrities. Ying Xiaojie was one of the few male internet celebrities he signed, and he worked as an entertainment anchor on Douyin, earning a considerable income.

Reception room

Tong Jincheng, who was far less spirited and stylish than he would be in later generations, sat on the sofa with a slight nervousness.

It is said that the boss of this company is only 19 years old this year, but he has already lived the life that all men dream of. He is powerful and influential, and he certainly does not lack women.

Tong Jincheng flicked his bangs and looked around the brand-new, exquisite, and fully equipped meeting room, thinking to himself: When I become successful someday, I want to start a company like this and experience being a boss.

As soon as the door to the reception room opened, Tong Jincheng saw Liang Can, with his imposing presence, stride in.

Upon seeing Liang Can, he quickly stood up to greet him, inwardly admiring Liang Can's youth and talent, while bowing even deeper when shaking hands.

"Hello, Mr. Liang, I am Tong Jincheng."

"Hello, I know you," Liang Can said with a smile.

Actually, becoming an internet celebrity, especially a big one, requires a strong mental fortitude, and most importantly, you have to be able to swallow your pride.

Tong Jincheng is impeccable in this regard. Even after he becomes successful, if a fan sends him a "treasure map," which is a high-priced gift on the Tiger Claw platform, he will immediately give it to the fan.

"Come on, sit down."

Liang Can sat down first, looked at Tong Jincheng, and cut straight to the point: "My colleagues should have already explained to you in detail why they came to see you. I have a personal question for you. Can you date eight girls at the same time without any of them noticing?"

Tong Jincheng: "?"

The patriarch, whose cultivation was not much better than that of the young chef, was completely bewildered and caught off guard by Liang Can's question: "I, I've only had two girlfriends so far."

"Two is a bit too few; it won't be good for your future career development."

"Huh?" The patriarch was completely confused, thinking to himself, what career requires having many girlfriends? Such a good career, how could it possibly fall into my lap?
Liang Can looked up and laughed, thinking to himself, "Dude, your live streams with female internet celebrities are mostly scripted."

I'm serious about this.

In the early stages of a platform's growth, it's a period of rapid, unregulated expansion. Tong Jincheng's approach is still viable for live streaming. As the platform grows and becomes more successful, he can then explore other avenues.

Liang Can said with a smile, "Let me give you an example. In the future, your live broadcasts will focus on dating female internet celebrities, flirting with them, and tricking them into going through the process of acting out a script and then wanting to have a real relationship with you. Wouldn't the audience find that interesting?"

Tong Jincheng nodded without hesitation: "Definitely, and this routine feels really addictive."

"But there's a problem."

Liang Can held up one finger: "In this case, your persona is that of a scumbag and a ruin, so even if the female internet celebrity develops real feelings for you, and you also develop feelings for her, you still can't be with her."

"Because if you get together, your public image will collapse, and your live streaming career will be over."

"This is the price of fame. Can you accept it?"

Tong Jincheng replied without hesitation, "I can. Right now, all I want is to make money. Dating and such are not my needs."

Liang Can asked, "Even if you really like it?"

“Yes, because romantic relationships are just a passing phase; once it's over, it's over. At most, you might feel a little regret, but it doesn't have any real impact,” Tong Jincheng replied.

So all the right people have died in your future.

There are gains and losses; no one knows whether it's worth it or not, but the balance in your bank account won't betray you.

"That's OK."

Liang Can shrugged, stood up and said, "Actually, I don't need to talk to you about such a small matter in person. I just think that you might become a very impressive person in the eyes of many young men in the future, so I have to give you a heads-up in advance."

"Guide them properly, and help some of these silly kids to love themselves and their families more."

"Like you said, it's not worth it to be so dramatic about being in a relationship."

Liang Can patted Tong Jincheng on the shoulder and smiled, "This is also a small contribution I can make to you guys as a man. We entrepreneurs should pay attention to social responsibility."

After saying goodbye to Tong Jincheng, Liang Can left first.

Tong Jincheng stood there pondering for a long time, then cautiously asked, "President Mu, does President Liang mean for me to be a relationship mentor for men?"

"That's roughly the idea, but the methods used are quite popular."

"Hooking up with female internet celebrities?"

"Yes, everyone loves to watch it, so let's show it to everyone. From our platform's perspective, of course, the more popular it is, the better. But you have to keep a balance and not go down to vulgarity."

"OK."

Men are like this: they want to be a groom every night, living a carefree life and constantly changing girlfriends, but when they see sincere affection, they will also be moved to tears.

What's that saying again? I'm a rat in a dark ditch, but that doesn't stop me from yearning for the light.

"Boss, why are you so sure that Li Jiajia and Tong Jincheng will become top-tier internet celebrities on the platform in the future?"

After seeing Tong Jingcheng off, Mu Cheng went to Liang Can's office.

Liang Can crossed his legs and said casually, "The world is not lacking in talented horses, but in discerning judges like me."

"Oh, by the way, have Zhang Nan's team raise the bar for the live stream PK mechanism. Don't be timid. The regulations aren't strict right now. If the big spenders get excited, they might spend millions in a single PK."

"What if people are having a blast with their purchases, and then they find out your platform won't let them do it anymore? That would be a terrible situation."

These days, there's no such thing as refunds for minors, or any limit on how much you can spend at once.

In today's live streaming industry, you can spend as much as you have in your account.

Of course, besides these money-making entertainment streamers, it's also necessary to plan ahead for 'live-streaming e-commerce'.

In the future, Liang Can's Douyin account will definitely need a large number of powerful live-streaming e-commerce hosts, which will be the key to making money.

A powerful top-tier livestreaming e-commerce host is just a host on the surface, but behind the scenes, there's a formidable team. This team can make brands treat them like dirt. No matter how much the livestream sells, the hundreds of thousands of yuan in slot fees are mandatory and non-refundable.

In some cases, they take a commission on every order, earning more profit than the brand itself.

That livestreaming host who shouted "Think about whether you're not working hard enough" is doing this kind of thing. Otherwise, why would he get so agitated when users complain that it's too expensive?
In short, in this day and age, it's truly a time to make money everywhere.

The real estate market is experiencing its final glory, while the internet industry is booming, growing unchecked with little oversight, allowing for rampant profiteering. Such good times will never return.

We need to earn as much as we can before the bad days come.

"Mr. Liang, when it comes to training live-streaming e-commerce hosts, the first things that come to mind are some very good bloggers on the Qingning APP, such as Bai Wan, and..."

Mu Cheng looked at Liang Can: "And Jiang Yuan, the champion of the Rocket Girls competition back then."

姜沅
Liang Can narrowed his eyes: "If you hadn't mentioned her, I would have almost forgotten about her."

Yes, Jiang Yuan.

She's perfect for being a live-streaming e-commerce host—no, she's perfect for being a live-streaming e-commerce queen.

When Liang Can first entered the live-streaming e-commerce industry, he actually looked down on live-streaming e-commerce hosts, thinking that they were at most a type of internet celebrity, earning tens of millions a year at most.

But once you get to know them, you realize that the profits those top live-streaming e-commerce hosts earn each year are simply staggering.

It's no exaggeration to say that its annual profit is higher than that of most listed companies.

“Jiang Yuan, yes, Jiang Yuan.” Liang Can patted the armrest of the executive chair, making up his mind, “Include her in the first batch of officially selected live-streaming hosts on the platform, and give her intensive training.”

Mu Cheng accepted the order and went out to carry out the task.

Liang Can remained seated in his office chair, his mind drifting to the scene of Jiang Yuan hawking her wares in front of the camera.

"It's been a long time since I've seen the future super-rich woman."

Intrigued, President Liang picked up his phone and sent a voice message to Jiang Yuan, deliberately using a deep, bubbly voice: "What are you doing?"

Liang Can actually has rather complicated feelings about Jiang Yuan.

Because the last person of the opposite sex Liang Can came into contact with after returning to his previous life was her.

One minute they were at the dinner table, calling each other "Sister Jiang," and the next they were kicked back to reality by fate.

"Damn it, I didn't do anything else during that time, all I thought about was how to please her." Liang Can got up and went to the French window, feeling sentimental.

At that time, Jiang Yuan held resources that Liang Can desperately wanted.

As long as Jiang Dafupo is willing to allocate resources to Liang Can, Liang Can will be able to gain a foothold in the industry in no time, going from earning tens of millions a year to earning over 100 million a year.

Jiang Yuan, who had just divorced at the time, also seemed to be somewhat interested in Liang Can. Because of the vast difference in their wealth and status, Jiang Yuan viewed Liang Can with a selective eye.

If you want to climb the social ladder, you'll have to lick their boots enough.

So at that time, Liang Can was even prepared to sacrifice himself.

Compared to one's future prospects, what does innocence matter?

Besides, Liang Can has never been innocent.

Thinking of this, Liang Can's lips curled up: "Fate is playing tricks on us. Now the tables have turned, and I'm the one suppressing Jiang Yuan. The rich queen in her childhood is now being played with by me."

Originally, Xiao Liang needed to rely on Sister Jiang Yuan to get rich, but Sister Jiang Yuan might not have been willing to give him that favor.

Now, young, wealthy women need Liang Can to become sales queens.

Life is truly wondrous. Just as Liang Can was messaging Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan was recording a new episode of her product sharing video.

This model is quite popular on the Qingning APP, where users pay for high-quality videos and the personal influence and charm of the bloggers.

Jiang Yuan has the kind of striking face that's very popular with girls, giving off a sense of peace and prosperity. Over the past year, her fan base has surged, leading to a significant increase in her income, and she's even been offered a small assistant.

The changes in her life have also elevated her temperament, and she is beginning to exude a queen-like aura.

This made female fans shout, "Sister is the best!"

As she gradually became more adept at her work, Jiang Yuan also began to enjoy this lifestyle with its heavy workload every day.

She's even too lazy to argue with Lin Xiangxiang now.

Jiang Yuan held women in utter contempt for those who could have gained more popularity and earned more money but chose to indulge in pleasure.

ding dong~
Jiang Yuan stopped recording, picked up her phone, and swiped the screen.

"Liang Can?" Jiang Yuan was incredulous when she saw who had sent her the message.

Why would he suddenly message me?

Since returning from that trip to the capital, Liang Can has never contacted Jiang Yuan again.

Jiang Yuan was initially quite disappointed, but after inquiring and learning that Liang Can had also banished Lin Xiangxiang to the 'cold palace', her mood instantly improved.

As long as the little shopping spree doesn't yield any good results, I'm happy.

"Xiao Zhong, let's take a break," Jiang Yuan said to her assistant.

"Ok."

The assistant paused the video recording and watched Jiang Yuan get up and walk to the balcony to reply to messages.

阳台
Jiang Yuan opened Liang Can's voice message and listened to the bubbly sounds coming from the other end, which immediately aroused her suspicion.

What's going on here now?
Jiang Yuan then politely replied: "Mr. Liang, what can I do for you?"

Soon, Liang Can sent a message: [Who taught you to ask such formulaic questions? It makes people feel no sense of closeness at all.]

Jiang Yuan rolled her eyes.

What do you mean by not feeling close to me? If you're unhappy and ignore me for months, how can I dare to get close to you?

But Liang Can actually messaged me today, and his tone was so lively. Could it be that he intends to make up with me?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan began to feel a sense of anticipation.

“Something’s definitely up to no good. Could it be that he wants to sleep with me?” Jiang Yuan wondered.

So Jiang Yuan replied to Liang Can: "Because we haven't been in touch for a long time, we're a little estranged."

Liang Can: [The company's short video platform is about to launch, and you are among the first batch of live-streaming e-commerce hosts cultivated by the platform. You weren't originally on this list, but I used my power as chairman to add you, you understand?]

I know? I know nothing!

What do you mean? Are you trying to sexually harass me?
Jiang Yuan hesitated for a moment, then replied: "Thank you for your guidance, Mr. Liang. Let me treat you to dinner."

Liang Can: [Okay, but it has to be a working meal. I don't accept private invitations.]

Jiang Yuan: “.”

Returning to the living room from the balcony, Jiang Yuan said to her assistant, "Xiao Zhong, book a restaurant tonight, something high-class. Don't try to save me money; I'm treating Liang Can to dinner."

Xiao Zhong is only eighteen years old this year. He dropped out of college and started working. On the one hand, his grades were only good enough for a junior college, and on the other hand, his family was poor. His father died in an accident while working, his mother ran away, and he has a younger sister.

Jiang Yuan saw Xiao Zhong's private message on Weibo and gave her a chance.

After spending several months together, Jiang Yuan was very satisfied with Xiao Zhong, feeling that she was a simpler version of herself.

'If she hadn't met me, a pure and innocent girl like her would have been taken advantage of in no time once she entered society,' Jiang Yuan thought to herself.

Xiao Zhong readily agreed, then pressed on, "Sister Yuan Yuan, is it Liang Can from Qingning Technology?"

"Correct."

"Does that mean we depend on him for our livelihood?"

"Yes."

"Sis, is he trying to take advantage of you?" Xiao Zhong's eyes widened.

Jiang Yuan sat down on the sofa, too lazy to record any more videos.

She sat cross-legged, secretly wondering if Liang Can really intended to sexually harass her, would that be considered an exchange?

I guess so.

In later years, Liang Can went to great lengths to win Jiang Yuan's favor and get the super-rich woman to help him make a fortune.

In fact, Liang Can knew very well that Jiang, the wealthy woman, was interested in him and wanted to take him as her male concubine, granting him a super-large single-level bedroom on the banks of the Huangpu River.

However, Liang Can was also one to act only after seeing the benefits, engaging in a back-and-forth struggle with the super-rich woman, and would never use the dragon charge as a last resort.

Now, Jiang Yuan has become Liang Can in the future, and is also single-mindedly trying to achieve financial freedom through Liang Can.

However, due to her age and experience, she was still somewhat naive and immature, far less ruthless than she was in later generations.

Jiang Yuan even had some unrealistic ideas pop into her head.

"He wouldn't happen to want to date me, would he?"

Xiao Zhong quickly booked a private room at a private restaurant, because Jiang Yuan had specifically instructed that Liang Can didn't like undercooked food, so they should never book a Western restaurant.

After confirming that the restaurant was one of Liang Can's favorites, Jiang Yuan busied herself with taking a shower, putting on makeup, and choosing her evening outfit.

The whole process took all afternoon, and by the time Jiang Yuan was dressed up, it was time to leave.

Xiao Zhong was in charge of driving; it was a Mercedes-Benz GLE that Jiang Yuan had just bought recently. Most girls wouldn't choose this model, but Jiang Yuan liked it and thought it was very imposing.

When we have more money, we'll go straight for the Range Rover.

Upon entering the restaurant, Jiang Yuan led Xiao Zhong to order, only to be told by the waiter, "Madam, a customer has already ordered and is in a private room."

"Ok?"

Jiang Yuan looked at the waiter in surprise: "Is he a handsome and tall guy?"

The waiter immediately nodded: "Yes, yes, he's so handsome! I was watching that customer the whole time he was ordering."

Liang Can arrived even earlier than me?
"Are there any other people?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"No, that handsome guy came by himself," the waiter replied truthfully.

What is he up to? Wasn't this supposed to be a business social event? Why didn't he even bring a secretary?

Jiang Yuan glanced at Xiao Zhong, who was looking up at the restaurant, and suddenly felt that the assistant was getting in the way.

"Xiao Zhong, let's go."

"Hey, good!"

On the way to the private room, Xiao Zhong asked curiously, "Yuan Yuan, are you going to drink with Liang Can later?"

"We should drink it."

"Then don't get drunk, or what if Liang Can tries to touch you inappropriately?"

"Don't mind your own business."

"?"

Jiang Yuan realized she had made a slip of the tongue, wondering how she had blurted out what was on her mind.

So he quickly added, "Probably not. Liang Can isn't the kind of person who's impatient. But his support is crucial to us. If I start a company, you'll be my chief secretary. With a little training, you can become my administrative director."

"But I only have a high school diploma."

“Strictly speaking, Liang Can only has a high school diploma, since he hasn’t graduated from university yet,” Jiang Yuan shrugged. “But does that prevent him from being our provider?”

Xiao Zhong shook his head.

"So, academic qualifications don't matter; you rely on my trust."

"Sister Yuan Yuan, I will definitely do my best!"

The future is bright, but all of this depends on Liang Can's support.

For the sake of my future, I must serve Liang Can well and get the resources I want from him, Jiang Yuan thought to herself.

As Jiang Yuan pushed open the door to the private room, she immediately greeted him with a smile: "President Liang, do I look pretty today?"

Liang Can, who was drinking water from his teacup, looked at Jiang Yuan and couldn't help but chuckle.

Fate is wonderful beyond words.

Because just before he returned, when Liang Can invited Jiang Yuan to dinner, his first words were: "President Jiang, do you think I look handsome in this suit?"
Then she privately sent a flirtatious WeChat message: "The younger brother's tie is trying to tie up his older sister's hands."
