Chapter 303 Make the best use of your talents

"Boss, are there really so many people watching the live broadcast of you and Sister La?" Coming out of Chen Bella's residence and on the way back to send Xiao Yao back, Pei Minyi, who was driving, couldn't help but ask, "When we leave, I see that the number of viewers displayed in the live broadcast room is almost four million." When Xiao Yao and Chen Beila were live streaming just now, Pei Minyi only needed to help hand things over to the side, and she watched their live broadcast with her mobile phone when she had nothing to do.

"There's definitely moisture. Xiao Yao smiled, "But this kind of thing happens in any industry, TV stations falsely report ratings, movies falsely report box office, and companies falsely report performance and turnover, which is not unprecedented, and it is not strange." I heard that the number of viewers displayed in the live broadcast seems to be quite large, but I don't know how much water there is, and I'm not interested in knowing. ”

"What, you want to start a live broadcast too?" Xiao Yao turned his head and glanced at Pei Minyi again.

When sitting alone in the car, Xiao Yao generally chooses to sit in the co-pilot seat, and rarely sits alone in the back seat of the car like the boss. On the one hand, he has a good personal relationship with Fang and Pei Minyi, and it is convenient to sit in front of him. On the other hand, he thinks that sitting in front can help keep an eye on the road conditions, and if necessary, he can make some appropriate reminders, which is safer.

"The English training course is over, and I've been busy lately, so I just wanted to find something to do. Pei Minyi said, "But I can't play games, and it's not like you can play the piano and sing, what can I do live?"

"There are a lot of live broadcasts on the Internet, and not all of them are playing games and singing. Xiao Yao said with a smile, "There are live broadcast meals, live broadcast part-time jobs, and live broadcast sleeping, there are all kinds of wonders." Aren't you a makeup artist, you can teach people makeup live broadcast, there should be a lot of girls watching it. ”

"Really?" said Pei Minyi.

"Well, there should be. Xiao Yao nodded, and continued, "But I have a request, if you start a live broadcast, even if your results are good, you can't sign a contract with a live broadcast website." Because once you sign a contract, there will be a lot of restrictions, such as stipulating how long you can broadcast in a month, and you must participate in some activities on the live broadcast platform. You're my makeup artist and assistant, and I may need you to work for me at any time, so you can't carry any other contracts on you, otherwise what if there is a conflict between the two sides? ”

"I'll just ask casually, even if you really go to start a live broadcast, you will play casually like you, and you will definitely not sign a contract with the live broadcast platform. Pei Minyi hurriedly said, "Your side is my main job." ”

"Even if you don't sign a contract, you can earn pocket money even if you do live broadcasts and share the income from rewarding props and gifts. When Xiao Yao said this, he suddenly remembered his props and gifts to share the income, and said to Pei Minyi, "You check your bank account these days." When I played on several live streaming platforms the other day, I received a lot of props and gifts. Although I didn't sign a contract, the live streaming platform also had to pay me for the money shared by these props. You check, if there is no money coming in, tell still and let the still chase the account. Xiao Yao's bank account was opened under the name "Xiao Yao", and in order to keep it secret, Pei Minyi's bank account number was filled in when registering.

"Isn't Sister Still busy talking to music websites about the online release of the song you wrote to Sister La?

"There are three websites, one is a partner of Youyu, and two are the ones she has dealt with many times, and besides, I write and compose songs, which website doesn't rush to ask for them? This is not difficult for her at all, and it doesn't take much effort. She has been quite idle recently, otherwise she wouldn't have been Sister La's agent. Xiao Yao said with a smile, "After she became Sister La's agent, in addition to helping her contact the website to release the song, the first thing she did was to help Sister La recover a previous arrears of advertising fees." This advertisement has nothing to do with her at all, or Sister La's own negotiation before, even if she wants to get the advertising fee, she has no commission, do you think she is more idle?"

"I just think you're really not a good boss!" Pei Minyi said with a smile, "The assistants want to start a live broadcast, and the agent will help people collect debts after signing a newcomer, I wonder if we don't find some side hustles to do by ourselves, and only rely on you, will we starve to death in the future!"

"Won't your conscience hurt when you say such things?" Xiao Yao said funny, "You are still working in a musical instrument company and a design studio, and you are now working part-time as a makeup artist in Yin Xi's studio to earn extra money, and at the same time learning to be a stylist from others, I helped you find this side job, will I starve you to death?"

"Okay, okay, I'm kidding, don't be angry, boss. Pei Minyi stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, and changed the subject, "How much money is shared by what props?

"There should be a hundred thousand yuan," Xiao Yao said, "You and you still take 50,000 yuan each as a bonus, and now it's July, so I will give you a semi-annual bonus." In addition, I will leave another 50,000 yuan for Sister La, and the rest will be on my account. ”

"Thank you, boss!" Pei Minyi said with a smile, "But Sister Yi and I are members of your private team, it's no problem for you to give us bonuses, what's the matter with you giving Sister La's money?

"How can I have a company to sign her?" Xiao Yao said, "Qijia Studio is my parents' business, and signing artists is my parents' business, and I don't have the right to sign people in the studio." I have a musical instrument company and a brand design studio, what do I do when I sign an Internet celebrity star? ”

"Then if you give Sister La money for no reason, will she accept it?" Pei Minyi said strangely, "She is still an artist under Sister Li, and she is not yours." Don't you even care about the release of the song you wrote for her?"

"What do you mean for nothing? That's the reward that was going to be given to her, not the bonus. Xiao Yao said, "Didn't I buy a warehouse to be converted into a loft? I plan to ask her to help me come up with the design drawings." She originally studied architectural design, worked in an architectural design company before becoming an anchor, and had experience in interior design. ”

"But it's been a few years since she resigned from the design company and switched to a full-time anchor," Pei Minyi said uneasily, "Does she still have the ability to help your warehouse produce design drawings?"

"After she became an anchor, she also drew pictures for the audience during the live broadcast, at least the ability to draw pictures has not been lost. Xiao Yao said, "As for the specific design, she has millions of fans, and there are hundreds of thousands of sailors who watch her live broadcast every day, and those people are not only students, but also professionals who have worked and engaged in various industries. On the premise of not revealing the specific location of the warehouse, I don't mind, and even suggest that she put the entire design process as a live broadcast content in her live broadcast room. ”

Since she has done this and has not lost her ability to draw, she should still have the ability to judge which ones are deliberately misleading and which suggestions are really feasible. I don't know how many sailors are behind her to help her, and what these people work together to accomplish may be better than if I asked a whole design team to do the design. Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Anyway, I am Party A, and if I am not satisfied with what I have made, I can ask for modifications until I am satisfied." ”

"Wow~ Boss, you don't know how many designers you have invited through Sister La?" Pei Minyi was surprised, "This is simply making the best use of things!

"This is to make the best use of people's talents!" Xiao Yao shook his head and corrected with a smile, and continued, "Now I am still Sister La's agent, and I still handle the matter of buying a warehouse." Even if I didn't say it, I would still think of this and mention it to me. I've also seen some of her previous design works in a design company posted by Sister La's fans in the post bar, whether it is the ability or the style of design, I think it is still quite appropriate. In addition, now that she has the help of almighty sailors, of course I chose to leave the design of the warehouse to her. ”

"Since you've already decided, why didn't you tell her during the live broadcast just now?" Pei Minyi said, "When you broadcast live together, there must be more viewers than when she broadcasts live alone, you say, there should be more architects who come to give her ideas, right?"

"There's no need," Xiao Yao shook his head, "everything is too much." I've had enough contact with her lately, and if I announce in the live stream that he will help me design loft, it's easy to see that she is hyping me or that I am deliberately helping her hype and hack her. Besides, I don't take the initiative in this kind of thing, and when I still discuss it with her, I take the initiative to come to me, and this job is still won for her. This can increase the weight of the new agent in Sister La's heart. ”

"Sister is still a celebrity agent to give her an online anchor as an agent, isn't it enough in her heart?" Pei Minyi said incredulously.

"Her personality is somewhat similar to mine, and she doesn't like to be tied down, so she hasn't looked for an agent. Xiao Yao smiled, "She will ask to still be an agent, not because she is still famous, but because she still promised not to help her take over the job without authorization." Still this agent wants to have more weight in her heart and have more influence on her, relying on specific behavior. ”

"Yes, another wonder!" Pei Minyi pursed her lips and said no more.

After the live broadcast with Chen Beila, Xiao Yao's anchor career came to an end temporarily. The next day, Xiao Yao and Hong Xiuyan rehearsed the choral song to be sung in the finals of "Singer" for an afternoon. In the evening, Xiao Yao, who was not entangled in anything anymore, also met the request made by Hong Xiuyan on the day she arrived, and took her to see the night view of Shencheng as a landlord.

Shencheng is a super first-tier city in China, and it can be regarded as an international metropolis. The night view at night is also very beautiful and very interesting. Xiao Yao could feel that it should not be the first time for Hong Xiuyan to come to Shencheng, but Hong Xiuyan was still very excited and happy, and everywhere she went, she had to pull Xiao Yao to give her a detailed introduction.

Shencheng is such a big city, there are many characteristic attractions and buildings, and you can't finish shopping in one night. At the end of the game, Hong Xiuyan also asked Xiao Yao to continue to accompany her on a night tour of Shencheng in the next few days. The two songs for Xiao Yao's finals have been selected, and now there are more than ten days left before the finals, and the rehearsal time is not too tight, it is summer vacation, and Xiao Yao has nothing else to deal with recently, so he agreed. It's just that not long after he smiled and agreed to Hong Xiuyan to be her tour guide in Shencheng, he had to break his promise because of a phone call.

"Xiuyan Nuna, I'm sorry that tomorrow's rehearsal will be cancelled temporarily, but we'll continue it until the day after tomorrow. And I just promised you to be a tour guide in the next few nights, and I am afraid that I will not be able to do the matter of visiting Shencheng at night. Next to the guardrail by the Bund river, Xiao Yao, who answered the phone, walked back to Hong Xiuyan with an apologetic face.

"Is something wrong?" asked Hong Xiuyan with concern and curiosity.

"Nothing's wrong, it's just that my friend is coming out of nowhere. Xiao Yao said, "Tomorrow I will fly to Yanjing to pick them up." ”

"Specially flew to Yanjing to pick up friends? Can't they fly to Shencheng by themselves?" Hong Xiuyan said with a grudge, "Are you going to leave me because of others again?"

"I don't know if they can come to Shencheng on their own, but they are very important to me, and they are friends from afar, and I have to go to Yanjing to meet them in person. Xiao Yao said, "I will bring them to Shencheng, and our rehearsals during the day will remain the same in the next few days, but at night, I estimate that I will have to accompany them." ”

"What kind of friend is so important?" Hong Xiuyan frowned, and suddenly thought of a possibility, Zhanyan guessed and asked, "From afar, from abroad, from the United States?" She remembered that she vaguely heard Xiao Yao, who was walking to the side to answer the phone, speaking what seemed to be in English.

"Yes!" Xiao Yao said, "it's the American student band "Immortals." They had a summer vacation and decided to travel to China. I'm still a member of this band, and when they come to China, I'm definitely going to host them. ”

"They said they were going to surprise me and didn't tell me in advance. They knew that I was from Yanjing, so they booked a flight to Yanjing directly, and just called me before boarding the plane at the airport. I certainly can't get them to change their flight to Shencheng now, and I stayed with two of them for a year when I was an exchange student, and I promised them to invite them to my house. Xiao Yao continued, "So I'm going to fly to Yanjing tomorrow and pick them up at the airport in Yanjing." Then take them to my house as guests, and after a day of play, then bring them to Shencheng. ”

"It turned out to be them!" Hong Xiuyan was relieved.

She also knows Xiao Yao's experience of going to the United States as an exchange student, although the media does not report much about the details of Xiao Yao's life as an exchange student, but there are many reports about the student band that once appeared on the Oscar stage. The members of that band were all Xiao Yao's classmates in that high school in the United States, and two of them were children of Xiao Yao's host family. They have studied and lived together for a year, and this kind of friendship is obviously not comparable to the friendship between her and Xiao Yao in the entertainment industry.

Hong Xiuyan immediately thought of another question, and asked Xiao Yao a little nervously: "Since the "Immortals" band is here, do you have any plans to change the chorus song of the "Singer" final? I know that "IMMORTALS" was written by you, and you can cooperate with them on the final stage of "Singer"!"

In terms of popularity in China, "Immortals" is not as good as Hong Xiuyan, who has been working hard in the Chinese film and television industry for several years, but in terms of fame in the world, "Immortals" is much higher than Hong Xiuyan. And an American band that has been on the Oscar stage also looks more stylish and high-grade than her, a Korean film and television actor, Xiao Yao was originally a member of the band, and his feelings are definitely deeper than with her. She and Xiao Yao have only rehearsed twice, and there are still more than ten days before the finals, and it is not impossible to change songs and sing guests now.

"No!" Xiao Yao smiled, "Didn't I just say that the rehearsals for the next few days will be the same?"

"But you also reminded me!" Xiao Yao clapped his hands and said, "Since they are here, then they must make the best use of their talents, and they can't be wasted!" I can let them appear in the second round of solo singing, we will appear in the form of a band, I will be the single lead singer, and Dean will be the guitarist, which is not against the rules of the program group!"
