China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 705 703. New Year's Eve, Douyin is online, the era of watching videos has arrived

"Hello, Ms. Fu. Sorry to have kept you waiting."

Cao Yu asked his secretary to bring Ouyang Nana and her daughter to his office, and explained with a smile: "I had something urgent to do in the United States last time. Sorry."

"Mr. Cao is too polite. It's okay."

When Ouyang's mother Fu Juan saw that the famous boss Cao was so polite, she felt that her daughter would have a great future if she joined this company.

"I wonder what Ms. Fu wants to see me about this time?"

Cao Yu knew that this woman wanted her daughter to enter the mainland entertainment industry, so she came all the way to Yanjing to find him.

Last time he just glanced at the teenage Ouyang Nana from a distance, but this time he looked at this "cello genius girl" up close.

To be honest, although Ouyang Nana has big, bright eyes, she is also cute and her facial features are pleasing to the eye.

Speaking of beauty, this girl is not really considered one. There is still a big gap between her and Song Zue and Guan Xiaotong.

But she also has her own advantage, which is that she can play the cello.

But besides these, what else does Ouyang Nana have?
Seeing Boss Cao constantly looking at her daughter, Ouyang's mother felt that there was something going on, so she said, "To be honest, your company is very famous in Taiwan, and I admire Boss Cao's talent. Therefore, I want Nana to sign a contract with your company and receive training from Boss Cao."

"Oh"

Cao Yu did not nod, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "Feiyu has never recruited trainees. If possible, you can try FNC this summer."

That means that the girl is too young.

Fu Juan hurriedly explained: "Mr. Cao, you misunderstood. Nana is now studying at a music school in the United States. We don't plan to let her be a trainee, but to train her to be an actor."

"But she is a little too young."

Although the girl can play the cello, Cao Yu still doesn't like Taiwanese actors.

Hearing that she was rejected again and again, Ouyang Nana felt sad and her confidence was hit again.

I am the prettiest among my sisters, and my classmates at school all like me. Why does this Boss Cao just look down on me?
Do you really dislike me because I’m too young?

Fu Juan felt that Cao Yu said this on purpose, and after a moment's hesitation, she said, "Mr. Cao, what do you think of my Nana? If it's good, we can sign the contract first. It doesn't matter if it takes a long time."

Cao Yu glanced at Ouyang Nana, who looked a little disappointed. "She has good looks, but at her age, it's time for her to study."

"CEO Cao."

Seeing that Boss Cao still refused to agree, Fu Juan could only use her last trick: "Boss Cao, I heard that you often go to the United States, and you have been studying in the United States in the past few years. How about you recognize her as your sisters, so that you can take care of him!"

In mainland China, most people think that adopting a godfather or godsister is shameful.

In Taiwan's entertainment industry, this kind of thing has long been popular, and there is even a saying that goes, "If you want to get ahead, you need a godfather."

Even the now famous Big S, Jia Jingwen, has a godfather.

The boss Cao in front of us is not only the boss of an entertainment company, but also has a strong ability to create stars.

More importantly, he is the world's richest man and has a certain status in the United States. If my daughter can recognize such a brother, will she suffer a loss?

It's totally taking advantage, okay?
"You can sign her, but forget about recognizing her as a sister."

Cao Yu didn't expect the woman to say that, but he didn't agree.

If I acknowledge your daughter as my sister, do I call you mom? How could I let you take advantage of me?
But if you insist on me taking care of your daughter, I won't be polite.

And judging from the current situation, even if Feiyu does not sign Ouyang Nana, other entertainment companies will probably sign her.

In this case, it would be better to keep her here. If her acting is good, then train her. If her acting is not good, then let her take a rest.

"Pity"

Although Ouyang's mother was a little disappointed, she felt that it was good to sign her daughter, so she smiled and said, "In the future, I'll trouble you to take care of her."

"It's natural."

Cao Yu asked someone to get a contract, and then said to Ouyang Nana, "Now that you have joined Feiyu, you must work hard in the future."

"I understand. I will work hard."

Ouyang Nana joined Feiyu as she wished, and immediately stood up and expressed her position seriously.

Cao Yu looked at the girl and thought, "Next year, I'm going to film Sewing Machine Band for Nazha. If this girl didn't have a Taiwanese accent, she could play the role of the little Lolita keyboard player."

After a while, the secretary brought in a contract. Ouyang's mother looked at it for a long time. Although she felt that the fifteen-year contract period was a bit long and the penalty for breach of contract was quite high, she still signed it.

Cao Yu was very satisfied holding the signed document.

The four young actresses in the entertainment industry, Guan Xiaotong, Song Zue, and Ouyang Nana, are now in their own companies. Let's see how they can be trained in the future.

But it is still possible to prevent them from over-marketing.

Especially Ouyang Nana, we must not let her cheat fans' money by using those hotel-style, poor-quality, and extremely expensive clothes.

At noon, Ouyang Nana and her daughter had lunch upstairs, which allowed them to once again witness the power of Feiyu Entertainment.

The cafeteria of Feiyu Company is just like the buffet restaurant in a five-star hotel, and it's free. How can a company like this have no future?
After dinner, Fu Juan brought her daughter to Cao Yu’s office again.

"Boss Cao, I will leave Nana to you. During the holidays, I will let her get used to working in your company for a while. When school starts, I will pick her up to go to school."

She then added, "If there is any film, you can let Nana try it."

"no problem."

Cao Yu agreed verbally, but he couldn't understand in his heart how Ouyang Nana became so famous back then?

This girl's popularity seems to be a particularly magical thing in the entertainment industry.

Ouyang Nana also said happily at this time: "Big brother, thank you, I hope you can take care of me in the future."

The little girl called "Big Brother" in a Taiwanese accent, which almost gave Cao Yu goose bumps.

I didn't recognize you as my sister, but you took the initiative to call me brother?

Fu Juan was very pleased to see that her daughter was able to build relationships in this way. It turned out that it was not in vain that she had brought her to so many variety shows in Taiwan over the years.

Signing Ouyang Nana was just a small episode for Cao Yu.

He has a lot of things to do these days.

For example, Douyin is about to be officially launched, and preparations are being made for the broadcast of the dramas "Three Lives Three Worlds", "A Servant of Two Masters", and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", as well as the preparations for several movies next year.

This year, the total box office of Feiyu Films has exceeded 10 billion, and next year's performance will certainly not be bad either.

With the four films "Operation Mekong", "Detective Chinatown 2013", "Ghost Blows Out the Light", and "Sewing Machine Band", plus the already completed "My Deskmate", should not be a bad year.

The next day, it was the last day of 2013.

The film market is still fiercely competitive, but the competition in the New Year's Eve parties is not as fierce as in previous years.

Because Fei'e Video's New Year's Eve Gala was too powerful and had long been the only one of its kind, Zhejiang TV completely gave up on holding a New Year's Eve Gala this year.

Now, the only three TV stations holding New Year’s Eve galas in the country are Mango, Litchi, and Tomato, as well as Fei'e Video.

With the support of "China Music Show", this year's Fei'e Video New Year's Eve party is even more star-studded.

At the party, Zhou Di sang his "Big Fish" again, and Han Hong also performed the interlude "It's Not Easy to Have Someone Who Loves You" from "Charlotte's Troubles" with deep emotion.

But what was unexpected was that at the party, the audience shouted "Boss Cao" many times, hoping that he could sing the song "A Bridge of Fate".

In the box, Yang Shuxue sat next to Cao Yu. When she heard the cheers from the audience, she smiled and said, "You are more popular than a star. Why don't you go up and sing a song? I want to hear it too."

"Forget it, there was no rehearsal at all. I'll sing for you next time I get a chance."

Cao Yu smiled and shook his head, looking at Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Zhao Liying and others on both sides. He felt that Yang Shuxue was really like a married woman at this time, surrounded by concubines.

Yang Shuxue was just joking and followed Cao Yu's gaze to glance at the other girls.

When she saw Yang Mi, she moved closer to Cao Yu and whispered, "That girl named Yang Mi is pregnant too, right?"

Cao Yu did not hide it: "Did you figure it out?"

"You're already showing a bit of your pregnancy, you should make arrangements sooner."

Yang Shuxue said this quietly, but in fact she was very envious in her heart. She felt that the biggest regret in her life was that she didn't give birth to a child for Cao Yu.

At half past eleven, Cao Yu turned around and asked the other girls, "Are you all ready?"

"All right."

Liu Yifei, Yang Mi and others nodded.

Cao Yu said: "During the countdown to midnight, not only should we post a Weibo about Douyin, but we should also post a short video."

"Don't worry, I won't forget it."

Although the beauties have already downloaded Douyin, they don’t think there is anything special about this short video software, and they don’t know why their boss attaches so much importance to it.

Not only do they have to post them, but every employee in the company also has to post short videos, and the content requirements are different.

When the clock was about to strike midnight, the host began to lead the audience in the countdown to the New Year.

"54321!"

"Snapped!"

When the host counted down to "1", colorful ribbons flew all over the stage, and the word 2014 appeared on the screen, heralding the arrival of the new year.

Under the flashing laser projection lights on the scene, a huge LOGO appeared on the stage.

There are two big words under the LOGO: Douyin!

Just when the audience was still confused about what "Douyin" was, the two hosts introduced these two words.

"Dear audience members at the scene and watching the live broadcast, Douyin is a short video social software that Feiyu Group has been developing for three years. Just now, we counted down to welcome the new year and officially announced that Douyin will be officially launched at midnight!"

The audience then understood that the countdown of the steel strip actually had this meaning.

Another host continued, "Record your beautiful life and share wonderful moments. Download the Douyin APP now and you can instantly receive valuable cash red envelopes. Share it with your friends and get red envelopes for sharing. Download it now!" After listening to the host's introduction, all the audience immediately took out their mobile phones and searched for the Douyin software.

Who doesn’t want a cash red envelope?

The main thing is that Boss Cao will definitely not lie.

Sure enough, after everyone logged in with WeChat, they were able to receive red envelopes of several or even dozens of yuan, and the money was directly transferred to their WeChat wallet.

Feiyu Group is so generous.

But what makes the audience even more curious is that this newly launched software already contains quite a few short videos.

Among them are videos shared by many stars of Feiyu Entertainment about their filming processes, singers sharing their singing practice videos, and various videos posted by delivery boys, company employees and others.

Of course, there are also some introductions to film and television clips, which are varied and rich in content.

In addition, you can also send it yourself and share it with other friends?

Is this Douyin so fun?
Many audience members who downloaded Douyin recorded clips of the party and tried to post them on the platform.

Soon, people liked and commented on the video they posted, expressing their envy that they could be there.

“This software is interesting.”

This is everyone’s first impression of this software. It was mainly developed by Mr. Cao from Feiyu Group, so it must be supported.

In addition to the promotion at the party, many celebrities under Feiyu also posted a Weibo post at the first opportunity to recommend Douyin.

In the box, the girls who had just posted on Weibo and videos were chattering about the number of views and likes on their videos.

"Wow, my video has been liked 200,000 times, and there's a flame logo!"

"I have one too, and my video has been liked over 100,000 times!"

“It’s only been a dozen minutes, and there are so many users?”

……

Cao Yu looked at the girl who kept watching videos and sighed.

“He’s a head-down tribe.”

Although Douyin is certain to appear, he also knows that this will give rise to a group of people who are addicted to their phones.

"Why not limit the time you spend online? Set up an anti-addiction system so you can't watch videos for more than two hours a day."

Cao Yu was thinking about Douyin, and the New Year's Eve party had ended.

"The party is over. I have something else to do tonight. Let's all go home."

Cao Yu stood up, waved his hand, and told everyone to go home.

Many girls present looked at him and knew that there would be no chance for them to study the secrets of human reproduction together tonight.

Fortunately, Douyin is quite fun and I can watch it at night.

After sending everyone away, Cao Yu stretched out his arm: "Shu Xue, go home!"

"Ah."

Yang Shuxue was moved by her man again.

There were a bunch of young and beautiful girls here just now, but Cao Yu still accompanied me home. This alone is enough to show my position in his heart.

On the way home, Yang Shuxue also played Douyin for a while and said with emotion: "Dear, this software has great prospects. You are really a genius."

"hehe."

Cao Yu felt a little embarrassed by the praise. He thought he was not a genius and that he had just copied everything.

He then asked, "Last time I asked you to slowly give up real estate, how is it going now?"

“Still in transition.”

Yang Shuxue said perfunctorily that in fact, over the past year, Huanyu Group has not only not given up the real estate industry, but has also increased its investment and has become one of the top real estate companies in the country.

In an industry that makes tens of billions of profits every year, who can just give up?
Cao Yu believed it and nodded, saying, "That's good. Make the Huanyu Cinema, hotel, and shopping malls well built, and the real estate prices can't go up any more."

He clearly remembers that 2014 and 15 were a turning point for the real estate industry.

In the past two years, the prices of many houses have doubled or tripled in just three years, turning countless young people across the country into debtors.

Now that Douyin has come out, once the number of users increases, we can use this platform to awaken the people and tell them to stop buying houses foolishly.

He had heard a story about an old Chinese lady who had saved money all her life and finally bought a house before she died, but she died without ever living in it.

The old American lady bought a house first, and paid off the mortgage before she died, but she had lived in the same house for half her life.

This is totally misleading propaganda by you capitalists.

Why don't you say that the old lady Hua Xia has money in her hands, is not a house slave, does not work for a bank, and does not have a mortgage. With the money in her hands, she can do whatever she wants?

Moreover, since the old Chinese lady is not living on the streets, she has a house to live in. Why does she need to buy a house when she is old?

Cao Yu was fooled by this kind of toxic chicken soup in the past, so he doesn’t want more young people to be fooled again.

But Yang Shuxue said, "Dear, I think the real estate market will still rise for a while. Houses in Yanjing are only 30,000 yuan per square meter now. According to market expectations, it shouldn't be a problem for them to rise to 50,000 yuan."

"Shuxue, we don't want to make this money."

Cao Yu still said the same thing, you can't make money that involves blood, otherwise you might go to the eighteenth level of hell in the future and never be reborn!
"I'll listen to you."

Although Yang Shuxue felt bad about losing a lot of money, Cao Yu did not abandon her and go with other women, so this time she chose to listen to the advice of her beloved man.

That night, with the advertisements at the New Year's Eve concert and the promotion of many Feiyu stars, the number of Douyin downloads reached more than 200 million overnight.

This data is even more impressive than that of WeChat back then.

Douyin short videos, like a whirlwind, began to spread wildly, not only young people liked it, but middle-aged people also liked it.

The main thing is to just keep brushing and brushing and can't stop at all.

On the first morning of the new year, Feng Xiaogang got out of bed with dark circles under his eyes.

He has been suffering from insomnia these days.

The box office of "Pan Jinlian" has not improved, and the goal of 400 million is still far away. How can he sleep well?

Feng Xiaogang came to the living room and wanted to ask if yesterday's box office results were out, but found that his wife was holding a mobile phone and watching a video.

"What are you looking at so fascinated?"

Feng Xiaogang pulled a chair and sat down: "Go get me a glass of water."

"Go on your own."

Xu Fan didn't even raise his head, with a smile on his face, he continued to browse his phone.

"You go!"

Feng Xiaogang had never been treated like this at home and felt that his prestige was challenged.

Is watching videos so interesting?

He snatched the phone from Xu Fan, took a look, and found that his wife was browsing a video app called Douyin.

"Douyin?"

The software is full of gossip about the entertainment industry. No wonder my wife likes to read it.

When Xu Fan came back, he asked, "Why haven't I heard of this Douyin before?"

"Just came out last night."

Xu Fan placed the cup in front of Feng Xiaogang and snatched the phone: "This is a short video platform launched by Feiyu Group. The content is very interesting. I just posted a video."

"From Feiyu Group?"

Feng Xiaogang was very sad when he heard this name.

If even my wife likes it, wouldn’t others like it more?
So, Cao Yu made money again?

I lose money and he makes money, is this fair?
Xu Fan looked at her husband with a dark face and said with a smile: "Husband, you are the next one too, it's really interesting."

"No! I won't do it even if you kill me!"

Feng Xiaogang was very angry: "You should stop reading these things in the future. I work hard every day to make money, but you only know how to spend it!"

"understood."

Although Xu Fan didn't dare to talk back, he thought to himself: "Your box office is not good, why are you angry with me! If you have the ability, you can also make a movie with a box office of over 1 billion and see!"

……

Ouyang Nana's jet lag has almost been cured in the past two days.

She woke up in the morning and opened her phone as usual, and found that the video she posted last night of herself playing the cello had millions of likes and more than one million followers.

And many people are asking, who is this beautiful girl, so talented
"My boss's newly launched software is so popular? And it also made me popular?"

Ouyang Nana was stunned for a while, then she called her mother and said, "Mom, I'm famous! I already have more than one million fans!"

"So exaggerated?"

When Ouyang's mother heard the news after returning to Taiwan, she couldn't believe it at all.

It’s only been two days since she joined Feiyu, and her daughter has become famous?

Is Boss Cao really that powerful?
After Ouyang Nana finished calling her mother, she was still so excited that she sent a WeChat message to Cao Yu: "Brother, I'm famous! Thank you! I'm so excited!"
