After rebirth, I only date bad girls

Chapter 452 The Tanuki Preparing to Target Liang Can
"Hehehe, you're my darling. The feeling of missing you is nagging at me. Darling, darling, let's have a drink! This is your favorite Ace of Spades!"

I drove my neighbor's Toyota, chasing the sunset.

"I was once captivated by the vastness of the world, but now my heart's desires have simply vanished with the wind."

"Words cannot express the depth of my feelings; my story is all about you."

At Qingning Technology, Liang Can was on the floor where the short video platform team was located, listening to song clips they had selected.

The core element of short videos is music, and even with the abundance of content from creators in the future, there will still be memorable background music.

For example, when the line "The Northeast is my hometown" comes out, it's Sister Yu who makes her appearance.

Many songs are actually just average when listened to on music apps, but when paired with short videos, they become a visual and auditory feast.

Because the short video excerpt is definitely the most essential part of the song.

Then, it's force-fed into users' minds, making them addicted and feeling the magic of it—that's how the viral songs of Douyin (TikTok) came about.

"You need to hurry up with the music copyright issue. The current stock is enough, but in the long run, it's not enough at all," Liang Can instructed before heading to the basement.

There was a large training hall here, which had just been renovated not long ago. When Liang Can arrived, wow, a group of young middle and senior managers were blocking the outside, standing on tiptoe to look inside.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? You look like you've never seen the world before. Aren't you embarrassing me?" Liang Can scolded, his hands behind his back.

"Mr. Liang."

"Mr. Liang, those two celebrities are so good-looking."

"The exotic scenery is absolutely stunning!"

Liang Can rolled his eyes at the people who were speaking, and waved his hand: "You've finished all your work, right? Everything's fine, right? Okay, double the KPI next month!"

After he finished speaking, everyone scattered like birds and beasts.

They're still young. Those experienced and qualified mid-to-high-level managers recruited by headhunters wouldn't do something like watching female celebrities dance during work hours.

Liang Can glanced into the practice hall and saw two beautiful women from the Western Regions with striking features, dressed in loose and casual clothes, learning several selected popular dances from Douyin (TikTok).

Fun fact: When Douyin first came out, there were very few dance videos that crossed the line. It mainly focused on being easy to learn and addictive. Even people with no dance background could learn to dance quite well after a few hours of study.

"Dilraba and Gulnazar, as expected of XJ girls, they were born to dance!"

Senior Mu Cheng clapped happily and said with a smile, "Next, let's learn how to film a costume transformation. When the short video platform goes live, we'll be counting on you guys to lead the initial trend and fashion!"

That's right, Liang Can invited the two most popular girls from the Western Regions who will be in the mainland entertainment industry in the future.

Of course, they are not as valuable as they will be in the future. They are still in the early stages of their careers and haven't even landed a leading role in a TV series yet.

Its main selling point is affordability.

"Mr. Liang, shall we go in and say hello?" Zheng Ting kept staring at Dilraba and Gulnazar, marveling, "There really is a beauty barrier between actresses and us ordinary people. Mu Cheng looks like an ugly duckling standing next to them."

Liang Can raised an eyebrow: "That's you guys. My looks are just as good as theirs."

Zheng Ting pursed his lips; there was really no way to refute that.

Ever since Liang Can discovered that he had relied entirely on his face to get where he was, he resigned himself to his fate and even went to a high-end beauty salon to get a VIP card and regularly go for skin care treatments every week.

I'm going to be the guy who's both handsome and rich!
"Mr. Liang, you really aren't going in?"

"I'm not going. I'm afraid they'll fall in love with me at first sight." Liang Can waved his hand and turned to leave.

Actually, Liang Can was lying to Zheng Ting; he had already added Nazha and Dilraba on WeChat.

The reason for not going in to meet is to establish a good image in the minds of employees. Once a person has money and status, they will care about their reputation to some extent.

Let's arrange to meet privately sometime.

However, on the other hand, Brother Can doesn't plan to go into the entertainment industry to hunt for women.

If I ever become the male lead in a romance novel, these two will definitely be on my must-sleep list.

Liang Can recalled reading entertainment novels in his later life. Anyway, Dilraba, Gulnazar, Yang Mi, Liu Yifei, and later Tian Xiwei, Zhang Ruonan, Meng Ziyi, and so on, were all being pursued by various male protagonists in the novels every day, without ever getting a break.

Meanwhile, the creators of the box office hit "Goodbye Mr. Loser" also visited Qingning Technology.

Liang Can met with Shen Teng, Ma Li, and others, as well as Yuan Hua, the Tide Spirit.

When these people saw the young and handsome Liang Can, they were immediately amazed.

We're all in our thirties and only just starting to make it big, while these other guys aren't even 20 yet and already own a huge internet company with over a thousand employees.

"Brother Teng, I've heard so much about you! Your new movie made my stomach hurt from laughing so much." Liang Can smiled and shook hands with Shen Teng.

When Shen Teng shook hands with Liang Can, this man, who was known as the most handsome man in the PLA Academy of Arts, even bowed slightly: "Hello, Mr. Liang, thank you for your support of Happy Twist."

"You're welcome, please have a seat."

After inviting everyone to sit down, Liang Can asked directly, "Have you ever done live streaming before?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Those of you here are all stage actors, and now film actors. To be honest, in this day and age, the mainstream entertainment industry is quite resistant to the live streaming model.

It's beneath me. What's the point of a respectable movie actor competing for food with a bunch of internet celebrities?
To be honest, in Liang Can's opinion, this kind of thinking still has some backbone.

Unlike later on, some actresses claimed on other programs that diamonds under one carat are all small diamonds, and then turned around and started selling face masks for ten yuan a piece on live stream.

Liang Can found it strange that anyone would believe that actresses who earn tens of millions a year would use a ten-yuan face mask.

"You need to get to know each other quickly. During the Chinese New Year, I will arrange a live broadcast for you to talk about the creative process of 'Goodbye Mr. Loser,' and of course, the ideas for the next movie."

If you're going to do something big, do it big. Liang Can prepared ample funds for the initial promotion and marketing on short video platforms.

Initially, various celebrities started live streaming, though they weren't regulars; the purpose was simply to create hype and attract users to download and register.

After that, there were tens of thousands of materials covering various fields, including catchy and addictive songs and dances, clips from movies and TV dramas, current affairs, borderline content, and so on.

We overwhelm users with information all at once, leaving them stunned, and then analyze their preferences while they are in a state of disorientation, creating a unique information cocoon for each of them.

Three days later, Liang Can received a message from He Yingcheng.

ByteDance chose to cooperate with Liang Can, disregarding everything else, their priority was to take down Slowpoke first.

It has a similar feel to the Song Dynasty's alliance with the Mongols to destroy the Jin Dynasty.

"Sister-in-law, I won't say much more about thanking you. When you come to Hangzhou again, I'll host a banquet for you." Liang Can took the initiative to call He Yingcheng.

He Yingcheng sounded rather unenthusiastic on the other end of the phone: "I've been exhausted because of you lately, I need to rest for a few days."

Is that so? That's such a pity.

Suddenly, He Yingcheng changed the subject: "But if Mr. Liang could come to the capital to comfort me when I'm exhausted, I wouldn't refuse."

Liang Can's eyes lit up: "My brother isn't home?"

That would be exciting, really exciting.

He Yingcheng: "."

"Get this straight, okay? Ye Qiming and I are only engaged, we haven't even gotten our marriage certificate yet, how could we possibly live together?" He Yingcheng said irritably.

Liang Can patted his forehead and apologized to He Yingcheng: "I'm so sorry, I didn't understand the situation. So, does that mean you live with your family?"

He Yingcheng's tone suddenly became shy: "It's kind of embarrassing to say, but I'm over twenty years old and my parents still require me to be home before 10 o'clock. They're very strict with me."

"Oh my, your sister-in-law has such strict upbringing; she's clearly from a well-to-do family."

Liang Can said this aloud, but inwardly he sneered, thinking, "Do you think I'm stupid? Do you think I'd believe such nonsense?"

Therefore, He Yingcheng most likely lives alone.

Yes, it's necessary to visit this capital city again.

After hanging up the phone, Liang Can threw himself back into his busy work.

Earning a pittance is really not easy.

Zhejiang University
After class, Qi Mingyue picked up her canvas bag and left the classroom. She had made plans with Lili to have lunch at a newly opened Cantonese tea restaurant near the school. She heard that the crystal shrimp dumplings there were especially delicious.

The two met at the school gate. Qi Mingyue took Lili's arm and said, "My parents are coming to Hangzhou in a couple of days. They'll be treating Liang Can to dinner. Why don't you come too?"

"My parents mean that if your aunt and uncle are free, they would like to invite your whole family to the banquet." Qi Mingyue looked at Lili expectantly.

In Qi Mingyue's view, if her parents could also get to know and become close to her best friend's parents, her relationship with Lili would be even more unbreakable.

"Okay, I'll go back and tell my parents. They'll definitely be free," Lili readily agreed.

Qi Mingyue was in a good mood, feeling that she could eat two more shrimp dumplings later.

Then she noticed that the raccoon was always daydreaming, muttering something to itself.

"Lili, what are you thinking about?" Qi Mingyue asked curiously.

Lili looked up and said bluntly, "I was still thinking about what He Meiqi said to me when I picked you up at the airport a while ago."

Qi Mingyue was taken aback.

That day, He Meiqi said a lot of absurd things, such as suggesting that Lili use technology.

Moreover, it's not about putting technology on Liang Can; it's about letting Lili use it herself, because that would be more flamboyant.

"You...you actually took it seriously?" Qi Mingyue asked incredulously.

"I wouldn't say I'm taking it seriously, but I've been considering the feasibility these past few days." Lili looked troubled. "After all, I feel like Brother Liang Can is getting further and further away from me."

Qi Mingyue was silent for a moment, then asked, "Why do you think that?"

“Because he flew too high and too fast, who knows how big Qingning Technology will be in another year?” Lili said in a low voice. “I’m just an ordinary Zhejiang University student, while Brother Liang Can will soon become the helmsman of a unicorn company.”

"Tell me, isn't this a huge gap?"

Lili took a deep breath and looked at Qi Mingyue: "Mingyue, if I really do what Meiqi said, will you support me? I hope you can support me."

Do as Meiqi says.
And Liang Can, do it.
Qi Mingyue remained silent for a long time, as if she had gone through a long period of thought and anxiety. Finally, she said softly, "Yes, I will support you."
