This director lacks vision.

Chapter 395 You Won't Call Me "Uncle" for Nothing (Level 10 Water Content)
Lu Han was completely confused by Wu Qian's reply. Just as he was about to use his phone to check the situation online, he saw team leader Jin Junmian walking over.

Kim Junmyeon said expressionlessly, "Have you finished your call? You need to hand in your phone to the management."

Upon hearing this, Lu Han quickly deleted the text message to Wu Qian, turned off her phone, and handed it to Kim Junmyeon.

Wu Qian's sneaking back to China had a significant impact on Lu Han and the other two.

SM Entertainment selected four Chinese members for the EXO group with the aim of making money in the Chinese market.

Now that the group has succeeded, EXO earned more than 100 million yuan in net profit in China in 2013 alone, accounting for more than 60% of the company's profits.

EXO is now SM Entertainment's money-printing machine.

Now that the group's leader has left, it has a huge impact on EXO, and SM Entertainment will definitely keep a close eye on the other three members.

Not only did they confiscate my passport, but today they also confiscated my phone.

Lu Han did not resist the company's management. He knew that such strict management could not be the norm, and there would definitely be other opportunities later.

But in Lu Han's heart, there was a big question: What did Wu Qian mean by that?
What do you mean by "never come back"? The Chinese entertainment industry is too wicked.
Is someone in the Chinese entertainment industry targeting him?

Lu Han was filled with doubts and had not yet received an answer, while Wu Qian had found a new way out.

The next morning, Wu Qian came to Zong Shuai's office and asked bluntly, "I've been bullied. What's your plan to fight back?"
"I can't keep swallowing my anger and hiding like a coward, or all my fans will leave."

Although attacks on popular idols by passersby are a common tactic for "washing out" fans, it can attract some of the most fervent and dedicated fans.

However, the persona used to cleanse the fanbase is that of a beautiful, strong, and tragic character, giving fans the feeling that "our brother is so beautiful and strong, yet he is not understood by the general public."

This will make fans feel even more sorry for their idol, and will strengthen their unity and fighting spirit.

The premise of playing this trick is to make fans believe that the brother is "beautiful and strong".

However, if an idol suffers defeat after defeat, most fans will not be able to bear it.

Especially losing in a competition with other idols is extremely embarrassing, and you'll be laughed at for the rest of your life if you tell others.

Many fans will not be able to handle it.

Since last night, quite a few Meigeni fans have indeed left the fandom, and Wu Qian is also worried.

Commander Zong said with a smile, "I saw what happened last night. Don't panic, I've already come up with a plan."

"What countermeasure?"

“Right now, the ‘Let’s Farm’ show is very popular, and Fengxing Media is gaining momentum. It’s not advisable for us to confront them head-on.” Zong Shuai took a sip of tea and said, “The current trend in the Chinese entertainment industry is that LeTV and Huayi have joined forces to fight against Fengxing Media.”

Director Feng of Huayi Brothers is taking a temporary break, leaving the company leaderless and in a period of dormancy.

LeEco, however, was thriving, boasting a host of well-known directors such as Zhang Yimou, John Woo, and Wong Jing, and was the second-largest film and television company in China.

If there's any company that can defeat Fengxing Media and help you avenge last night's humiliation, it's LeEco.

So I plan to bring you with me to join LeEco.

"LeEco is currently lacking top-tier celebrities, so they'll welcome us."

Upon hearing this, Wu Qian's spirits lifted.

People's thoughts can change.

Yesterday, Wu Qian thought he was very capable, but after experiencing a terrible day, he felt he needed to find a backer.

"Great! We'll join LeEco!"

Seeing that Wu Qian agreed so readily, Zong Shuai smiled and said, "Let me remind you first, after we join LeEco, in order to get better resources, you need to learn how to please the senior management of LeEco."

For example, Vice President Liu Shuqing, she really likes handsome men, and you know what I mean by your looks.

Wu Qian understood what Zong Shuai was saying; he just wanted to make the aunties happy.

Wu Qian did not object to this, but he seemed hesitant and evasive.

General Zong asked curiously, "What's wrong? You don't want to?"

"It's not that I'm unwilling." Wu Qian hesitated for a moment, thinking that her agent would find out sooner or later, but still said truthfully, "I... I'm very young, and I'm afraid Mr. Liu won't be satisfied."

Commander Zong: "..."

Regardless, Zong Shuai still took Wu Qian and defected to LeEco.

On the afternoon of May 22, Sina Entertainment broke the news that "Wu Qian has joined LeTV and will become the male lead in Xu Jinglei's new movie."

These two pieces of news, along with the publicity press release purchased by Zong Shuai, boosted Megni's confidence and morale.

After all, he signed a "top salary" contract with LeTV right after returning to China and even starred as the male lead in Xu Jinglei's movie. This is not the kind of treatment that an unknown actor can get.

Wu Qian gradually stabilized her fan base.

It has to be said that Zong Shuai is indeed a seasoned agent; his actions were quite smooth.

Meanwhile, at the recording site of the "Let's Farm" program, Jiang Yifeng also saw the news about Wu Qian and a smile appeared on his face.

He found it very interesting that there were more and more tourists on the LeEco ship.

I wonder how many people will drown when the cruise ship capsizes.

"What are you looking at, uncle? Why are you laughing so happily?"

Jiang Yifeng was lying in a bamboo rocking chair watching the news when he put down his phone and saw that he had been pricked.

He said with a smile, "I'm watching Wu Qian's news."

Beside Naza were three beauties: Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, and Gao Yuanyuan.

The live stream camera can be controlled; currently, the camera is focused on the trainees working in the fields.

The four women from Nazha were not in the shot.

But the four beauties looked accusatory, seemingly very dissatisfied with Jing Tian's public display of affection last night.

Seeing this, Zhang Chaoyang watched the show with a smug look on his face.

He looked gloating, and even deliberately asked, "Wait a minute, Lao Jiang, where are Zhang Tianai and Reba? They're not all here!"

Faced with Zhang Chaoyang's instigation, Jiang Yifeng smiled and said calmly, "Tian Ai is recording a program, and Dilraba is filming Detective Chinatown. They are busy."

After saying this, Jiang Yifeng leaned back, and the rocking chair began to rock back and forth again, looking completely at ease, not worried at all about any trouble brewing in the harem.

Zhang Chaoyang sat up straight, waiting to watch the dramatic scene unfold.

But things took an absurd turn.

Liu Yifei and Gao Yuanyuan each took a chair and quietly sat down next to Jiang Yifeng.

Naza walked behind Jiang Yifeng, stretched out her fingers and gently pressed, giving Jiang Yifeng a massage.

Shu Chang then took out a package and handed it to Jing Tian, ​​saying, "Here are the raw materials you requested. When the popsicles are ready, remember to give me two as travel expenses."

Jing Tian took the package and said with a smile, "What do you mean two pieces? Do you think I'm that stingy? As long as you're not afraid of gaining weight, eat as much as you want."

As the weather got hotter, Jing Tian saw that Jiang Yifeng planned to stay a few more days, so she decided to make popsicles here.

She made popsicles on the show "Back to Field" before, and now her skills are becoming more and more proficient.

This has become her signature dessert.

Shu Chang smiled, took out a folding fan from behind her back, opened it, and began fanning Jiang Yifeng, teasingly saying, "Your Majesty, is the strength of my fanning just right?"

Jiang Yifeng squinted and said, "The force is too light; the wind can be stronger."

The harmonious scene before him made Zhang Chaoyang feel extremely nauseous.

He asked instinctively, "How...how did you do that?"

Jiang Yifeng replied calmly, "Nothing special, just practice makes perfect!"

Zhang Chaoyang: "..."

After showing off their affection with Jing Tian last night, the harem is indeed in turmoil.

But Jiang Yifeng remained calm and said directly, "Tian Tian can show affection, so can you. Don't rush things."

That settled the dispute.

Afterwards, Jiang Yifeng privately messaged Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Yifei, and Shu Chang, offering some sound advice on how to show affection. With Nazha, however, Jiang Yifeng didn't even need to offer any advice; he simply told her directly.

You come first. We already showed off our affection when Youth With You aired.

Everyone now says you're the boss's wife at Fengxing Media, and that's the proof.

As the boss's wife, you should set a better example by being more magnanimous and not get jealous or angry so easily.

Naza thought about it and realized that it was indeed true, so she stopped being angry.

This is the mind of a simple-minded beauty; once you get along with her thought process, she's very easy to please.

Of course, Jiang Yifeng wouldn't let Naza suffer, and he would give her some compensation later.

The four beauties came together today, not to confront anyone, but simply to eat hairy tomatoes, see the beautiful fireflies, and take some pretty photos – it's just a private vacation.

Zhang Chaoyang had no show to watch and felt quite bored. Not wanting to be a third wheel, he stood up and said, "I haven't fed my pigs yet, you guys chat first."

Then I went to feed the pigs.

The four beauties didn't stay long; they only stayed one night before heading back.

After all, this is where the show is being filmed, so it's not appropriate to just hang out here all the time.

By May 24th, the results of the first round of eliminations for "Let's Farm, Youngsters" were announced, with five contestants, including Li Hao, being eliminated.

After the results were announced, the atmosphere instantly turned emotional.

Many trainees had tears in their eyes, expressing their reluctance to part ways.

A very emotional young man like Cai Xukun burst into tears.

The relationships among the 30 trainees are very delicate.

Of course, there will be competition among them, and in the end, there will only be 10 spots in the final group.

But there is also a bond of shared joys and sorrows, after all, farming together requires cooperation.

We all ate and slept together during this period.

Those who remain are no longer in danger of being eliminated, so it's normal for them to feel sad for those who are eliminated.

The live broadcast director played a song from the second-generation 101 group's new album, "Remembrance".

All I want is to hold onto the fleeting years and say a proper goodbye, for regrets and gratitude can't bring us back to yesterday.
I just want to remember this moment, the wonderful years we spent together…

With the sad background music playing, Cai Xukun cried even harder, and snot even came out of his nose.

Many viewers in the live stream also cried, and the chat was full of tearful emojis.

Although sentimentality is a cliché, it is still necessary when it comes naturally, as it can add warmth to a program.

Those who were eliminated left, but the competition continued, and the pace became faster and faster.

That evening, a new round of performance competitions will be held to determine the next work arrangements.

To Jiang Yifeng's surprise, these trainees grew very quickly.

The quality of the program is much better than before.

Especially Cai Xukun, who wrote and sang a rap song called "Overalls", the lyrics and rhythm of which are quite something.

"Middle-parted hair, overalls, my trademarks are too obvious."
The spotlight is chasing her; her dance steps are as precise as graduations.

Don't be jealous, my path is soaked with sweat and mud.
Making a name for himself through farming is so eye-catching; the inspiration from sprouting from the soil~
The basketball spins on my fingertips; I decide the rhythm.

The keyboard snaps and breaks with each click, the midday sun shines brightly on the fields.

The incandescent light bulb in the old dormitory witnessed two and a half years of practice.

The movements that are muscle memory have long since become habits!
(Bridge)

I've fallen before, and my knees are injured.
Rumors are like knives, cutting into the past.
But overalls~ they fasten up dreams~
A middle-part hairstyle is a weapon of rebellion!

(Hook)

Middle parting, overalls, I'm IKUN, remember that!

Fireflies are blooming, piercing through all the mist.
Center-parted hair, overalls, and an unwavering commitment to farming.

"We are one, let's go together and begin the legend!"

Although the melody of "Overalls" is simple and the lyrics are straightforward, the combination of Cai Xukun's feelings about farming makes it very catchy.

Under Cai Xukun's performance, "Overalls" became a huge hit, igniting the entire venue and receiving rave reviews from viewers in the live stream.

If humor and abstract content are the source of viewership for the "Farming" show, then performances like those by Brother Chicken, as well as in-depth content such as the firefly footage shot by Jiang Yifeng a few days ago, are the key to retaining viewers.

After Cai Xukun finished his performance, Wang Sicong stood up and said, "I want to apologize to you, although I don't think I did anything wrong by scolding you on the first day."

But your growth during this time has really impressed me. This song, "Overalls," is really good! Everyone loves it!

Wang Sicong was naturally all smiles.

The "Farming Boy" livestream lasted for nearly 70 days, bringing at least 3000 million registered users to Panda TV.

Of these, paying users accounted for as much as 11%, totaling more than 330 million.

Of course, some of this revenue comes from the studio, a lot from fans supporting their idols, and some from viewers who buy gifts to send as donations to charity.

This data is certainly somewhat inflated, but it's a huge positive for Panda TV's valuation.

Business development is also substantial.

Panda TV now firmly holds the top spot among live streaming platforms, with a market share of 65%, severely suppressing other platforms such as YY and Douyu.

Wang Sicong made a huge profit by acquiring the title sponsorship and exclusive live streaming rights for the "Farming Bar" program for 4 million yuan.

He knew why, of course, so after praising Xu Kun's cooking, Wang Sicong took the opportunity to praise Jiang Yifeng.

"Kun Kun, I thought you were really not good enough during the first round of the competition. But my Uncle Jiang had a keen eye and said you would definitely become a hit. Now it has come true."

I hope you continue to work hard and live up to my Uncle Jiang's high expectations.

Upon hearing this, Cai Xukun naturally thanked President Jiang for his kindness and thanked President Wang for his comments.

However, the audience's attention was no longer on Kun Kun, because Wang Sicong called Jiang Yifeng "Uncle Jiang".

Although Wang Sicong always calls Jiang Yifeng "Uncle" in private, this is the first time he has called him "Uncle" publicly.

Netizens were naturally curious about the relationship between the two in terms of seniority and started a heated discussion about it.

That evening, the hashtag #UncleJiang# trended on social media along with Cai Xukun's song "Overalls".

After all the performances were over, Jiang Yifeng had a late-night snack with Zhang Chaoyang and Wang Sicong.

He said with a smile, "Since you've publicly called me 'uncle,' I won't let you call me that for nothing. I'll also point out a business opportunity that will make you a lot of money."

Upon hearing this, Wang Sicong became extremely excited and immediately began to express his true feelings: "Uncle, you're even closer to me than my own uncle! Seriously, I don't even respect my own father, but you're the one I admire the most!"

Jiang Yifeng shook his head and said with a smile, "When the 'Let's Farm!' boy group was formed, their first task was to sell agricultural products in the live broadcast room and help farmers sell their goods through live broadcasts."

This is a huge business opportunity; you should seriously consider and plan it out.

Your Wanda Department Store has been developing for many years and has a relatively mature supply and warehousing channel. If you can make live-streaming sales a success on Panda TV, it could be a huge business.”

Wang Sicong is undoubtedly good at dealing with Jiang Yifeng.

A while ago, Jiang Yifeng asked Wang Sicong for data from Panda TV to train AI.

Without any hesitation, Wang Sicong established a project company and, under the premise of compliance, provided all the data for free and integrated the algorithm model of the Classic of Mountains and Seas into Panda TV.

Jiang Yifeng's suggestion was also a way of giving back to Wang Sicong for his data.

Live-streaming e-commerce started to emerge in 2015, and the market environment is now relatively mature.

As for consumer habits, this is actually just a variation of TV shopping, nothing new.

Wanda Department Store has distribution channels, and Panda TV has a platform.

If Wang Sicong really takes it seriously, he might actually be able to make a name for himself in live-streaming e-commerce.
