Star Media Helmsman

181 The third apple

Newton discovered the force of gravity by falling an apple to the ground. This is his ability, which can also be called wisdom.The fastest update This second apple is a very general concept. It can be called a talent, but it can only be a talent that helps people succeed.

Holding the invitation card in his hand, he led two lobby managers who seemed to be "key people" to stand at the entrance of the banquet hall. He opened the door, but did not see the expected crowd.After a little recollection, he determined that these two were the last 'important guests' to arrive.

He stepped back and slightly bowed to invite the two of them in. His little thought could not escape these weather-beaten eyes.It's just that the two of them were not in the mood to pay attention to whether the lobby manager of a four-star hotel wanted to curry favor with them. They wandered into the banquet hall, even if they didn't come out to greet the host, they didn't care.

When the lobby manager was closing the door, he vaguely saw the gold watch on one of the men's wrists. He seemed to remember something, but he didn't seem to remember anything.

……

"Senior, long time no see."

"Oh, Hao Yang, long time no see."

Kim Kwang-soo smiled at this younger generation who has gained fame recently. He is also a music producer, and Lee Ho-yang, known as the Tiger of Sinsa-dong, is the one he admires the most.

<bm旗下的话我很期待。毕竟m花了这么大力气把前辈挖过去，肯定不是想让前辈去那养老的。”

Kim Kwang-soo laughed out loud, and didn't show off, just whispered to Li Haoyang: "I can only reveal the name of the group, t-ara, as for more you will know when the time comes, their way of debut will be very different. "

Li Haoyang's appetite was whetted, but he didn't ask any more questions, he just smiled and said: "Senior's handwriting will definitely surprise people, if there is a chance, I can give the title of their first album to me."

A cooperative relationship seems to have been reached here. If the strong alliance between Li Haoyang and Kim Kwang-soo is spread, it will definitely make the circle full of expectations for this group called t-ara.Noticing that the 'host family' had come to the stage, the two stopped talking.

……

Li Xu came to the stage with "what everyone expected" and this is not an unexpected answer.Although Samsung Advertising is a cooperative relationship with Shinhan Advertising, Samsung is Samsung after all. These two words are of great significance to all Koreans present. From a certain level, it also increases their confidence in placing bets.

In addition to representatives of producers such as Kim Kwang Soo and Lee Ho Yang, most of the senior managers are also very optimistic about Li Xu.Originally, this kind of occasion should be monolithic, but the guests like the 'host' made a 'family change' and they couldn't say anything.Let's be a spectator for the time being, it seems that there is something special about it.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the problem in the clearly divided banquet hall. As the manager in charge of TVXQ, the number one boy group in Korea, Zhou Junjian also made his own choice.Although social networks seem to have nothing to do with the entertainment industry, 'idol-world' has largely continued the operating model of 'cy-world', even using celebrities to attract fans to become users.

All artists under sm entered 'idolworld' apparently because of Lin Weiran, but actually it was a cooperative relationship.The 'idolworld' operation team around Li Xu has already sent out a clear signal that this new social networking site is under the control of Li Xu.

Now that the 'owner' has changed, the cooperative relationship between SM and Lin Weiran will naturally weaken appropriately. Li Xu is a very necessary choice to stand with many producers on this occasion.

Zhou Junjian suddenly asked: "Do you think he will walk away, or hold on until the banquet is over?"

"Who is the senior talking about?" Jin Yanping pretended to be confused.

Zhou Junjian smiled lightly, and said bluntly: "Of course it's Representative Lin. Don't tell me he doesn't understand what this kind of occasion means. If I don't come, I will be the one who shows off the most when I come."

Jin Yanping fell silent. Before that, Lin Weiran inquired about Girls' Generation's development plan, which gave him a bad premonition.

Zhou Junjian frowned, and asked as if talking to himself: "Could it be a fight between dragons and tigers?"

Jin Yanping was noncommittal, and it was this opening speech that made the limelight of a social banquet like this.Li Xu has already stood on the stage without a podium, how can Lin Weiran fight?

……

The stage is very large, because the banquet hall often invites celebrity entertainers to add to the fun, so the equipment is far from being comparable to ordinary commercial performances.Seeing Li Xu on the side of the stage with the staff helping him put on the headset, the eyes of everyone in the hall slowly gathered.

The lights on the podium were brightly lit, and the idol artists who had relaxed for half an hour moved forward slowly.Today they are the audience in the audience, not the protagonists on the stage.

"Pretty good."

Since he is an audience, he is entitled to comment. Jun Ji-hyun's comment made Lee Hyo-ri look sideways.

"Hey, how can you say that you also have a man, what will you do when you see this?"

Jun Ji Hyun refused to be molested, and insisted: "It's not bad, I like his private server taste."

Indeed, at this time dressed in a shallow idol.He held the earphones and smiled, naturally accepting everyone's attention, with a smile on his mouth all the time, and he didn't look nervous.

It is indeed impolite to the guests to make a 'family change' in such a scene, but there is no way, even if Lin Weiran voluntarily gives up the management right of 'idolworld', Xu Rencheng still has to guard against him.Li Xu's position has been further consolidated, not to mention a three-legged confrontation, but he can handle it with ease.

He knew what this occasion meant to Lin Weiran, who was based in the entertainment industry at this time, but he had to act like a master.

On the one hand, it was because he wanted to show his 'enemies' his current appearance, and on the other hand, he felt that he was stronger than Lin Weiran.

Xu Rencheng is behind him, and Mr. Zhao is behind Lin Weiran.Everyone stands at the same stage and the same position, and it is naturally necessary to express who is the best one.

After the introduction by the host Liu Zaishi, listening to the applause from the scene, the smile on Li Xu's face was even better.

"Hello, first of all thank you..."

……

Lin Yuner, who came late, subconsciously searched for Lin Weiran. She was a little regretful that she didn't see Lin Weiran when she was on the stage just now. She didn't concentrate on watching the stage like Kim Taeyeon, but looked left and right until she fainted. I saw the figure standing under the stage.

She had never seen Lin Weiran like this, or she had never seen Lin Weiran dressed so carefully.

He was wearing the same black suit as before, but he was completely different from the man who always smiled at her in the past. He just stood there with his usual expression, but he seemed to have the same appearance as those big-name but low-key actors. General aura.Even if she was just standing off the stage, it still couldn't be ignored. Even if Xi Shi was in the eye of the beholder, she still hoped that the person standing on the stage at the moment was Lin Weiran.

When she turned her eyes back to the stage under Xu Xian's reminder, she found that it seemed to be just a fantasy.

……

"...In September, the number of 'idolworld' users has officially exceeded 300 million. Since the launch of the 'Casual Encounter' system, the average monthly user growth has risen from 18 to 23. After the launch of the 'Reality Map' Monopoly module, There has been a significant increase in user activity..."

"... last quarter's marketing revenue increased by 15.00% compared to the second quarter of the same year..."

"...advertisement distribution rate, user satisfaction, and user support have reached the highest since the launch of 'idolworld'..."

With the big screen behind him, Li Xu introduced his outstanding achievements to all the audience on the sidelines. He completed a small flight with 'idolworld' just a few months after he took office.All this is due to the development of the 'Current Encounter' section under his leadership, and it is not unreasonable to say that he is the biggest contributor to all the progress of 'idolworld' in recent months.

But is it enough to tell the audience here like a quarterly report 'I'm doing great'?

With a flash of inspiration, Li Xu stopped talking and didn't look at the last quarter's business report behind him.

"Growth, as long as we're growing, there's nothing wrong with that."

Everyone in the audience was stunned for a moment, only thinking that the words were familiar.

"Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Alan Greenspan said so seven months ago."

Only then did everyone react, but felt that this joke made people dumbfounded.

This year is the year of the financial crisis, and using the lies of the 'former' US Treasury Secretary Alan Greenspan to comfort the public and lull investors into confidence should also make people laugh and cry.

"Since the launch of 'Chan Yu', all the modules of Connotation have been greatly sought after by users. I have found the root of user growth. Users joined not because of our beautiful reports, and they are not stockholders. Joining is not investing.

So why are they joining?The simplest answer is pastime, killing time, and socializing, so the way we attract users is to allow them to spend more time here. "

After pressing the controller several times in a row, a new picture appeared on the big screen behind Li Xu.

"Based on the chance encounter platform, 'idolworld' will launch two practical xing components at the end of this year, 'commuting' and 'footprints', and next year we will launch a dating plug-in and two limited-type components. 'Sweet Shared Rental' and 'Global Travel' and 'Pig Raising', and the 'Pets' function will be launched in the second quarter..."

This is... a press conference?

In the audience, Zhang Dongyu quickly took out his portable tape recorder, Kim Kwang-soo and Lee Ho-yang looked at each other, Zhou Junjian and Kim Yeon-ping showed unabashed surprise.Like other reporters, producers, and senior managers in the audience, they were shocked by Li Xu's revelations one after another.

The 'Real Map' version of Monopoly is Li Xu's favorite work, and this game, which is similar to Gwanghwamun and Cheong Wa Dae, has been strongly sought after by users.It's like a well-recognized popular singer has just had a hit song, but at this time he has continuously revealed all his plans for the next year. Apart from being shocked, he is full of expectations.

The idols in the audience are also looking forward to it, because 'idolworld' at this time is more similar to the official network window of idol groups, and there is no need to compete with those big-name actors. The environment with high user activity has attracted many idol groups to settle in. The number of users 'idolworld' brought by these people's joining is also accepted, and the two parties are mutually beneficial, just like a virtuous circle.

They should look forward to and pay attention to the next series of big actions of 'idolworld', because they are already users of 'idolworld'.

At this moment, the idols who were paying attention to the stage chatted in low voices. The several sections launched by Li Xu made them very interested just by hearing the names.Especially the 'pet' function that will be launched in the second quarter of next year, it must be extremely cute and colorful. Some people even take out their mobile phones and log in to 'idolworld' directly, as if the function has already been launched.

Li Xu was very satisfied with this reaction, but it was not enough. These were all plans in the company's plan. Although he led it, he still couldn't fully express his intentions.

The feeling of everyone's attention made him swell, and he tried his best to keep calm, and the two hands hanging by his side were slightly clenched into fists.

In the corridor, in front of Lin Weiran, he murmured that 'idolworld' completely surpassed 'cy-world' within two years and successfully became the number one large-scale social network in Korea.

But this sentence cannot be said on this occasion.

He tried to restrain himself and returned to his sanity.

"Here I announce the expectation that the number of 'idolworld' users will officially exceed 400 million by the end of January next year."

Increase the number of registered users of 'idolworld' by 100 million within three months?

cheating?

Because this is equivalent to letting the current singer sell a 50-selling album.

Unbelievable!

The applause came slowly, on the one hand for Li Xu's complacency on the stage, and on the other hand he lamented his arrogance of "not afraid of tigers".

……

"That's why us actors never land on 'idolworld'."

During the applause, Jun Ji-hyun explained to Lee Hyo-ri: "Everyone knows what social networking sites do, but it is tacitly understood. It is not difficult to understand Li Xu's performance as if he is a popular newcomer. What's 'encounter', what is 'sweet co-rental' '? It's too blatant to put on such a layer of clothing that can be easily torn for a one-night stand."

After listening to Jun Ji Hyun's words, Li Xiaoli nodded slowly, deeply agreeing.But when she saw the admiring eyes of these people looking at the stage, she couldn't help but focus on Lin Weiran.

Alas, I still lost.

Even with the three most beautiful flowers in the audience, Li Xu's smug and passionate image still attracts people's attention.

Han Weiyi, who thought the so-called opening speech was just a financial briefing, was surprised. It was the first time in Korea to put a new function launch conference on such an occasion.Although she didn't forget to clap her hands, she can't be expected to use much force.

Glancing at Lin Weiran's side face, the man still looked as usual, clapping his hands slowly, as if he had his own rhythm.

Han Weiyi scanned the audience unwillingly, hoping to see something different.But the producers, senior managers, and reporters on the left side of the venue either looked at Li Xu on the stage and applauded, or whispered to each other.There are occasional glances cast over, with obvious ridicule.

Han Weiyi's frown became tighter and tighter, and she accidentally noticed the 'unfamiliar' face who was not in this venue before, and thought she was mistaken.

The two of them stood at the edge of the venue, clapped along with everyone, and then talked to each other on their own, not caring about the atmosphere in the venue at all.

After seeing the gold watch on the wrist of one of them, Han Weiyi was able to confirm who they were.She turned her head in disbelief, but she didn't see Lin Weiran. When she realized that he had reached the edge of the stands, Han Weiyi froze for a moment, and then thought of something.

She didn't care about the "slowly leisurely" beauty of the girl in Qingtan Cave, and walked quickly towards the two men not far away.

……

"Thank you."

The applause faded away, and Li Xu, who had completed his perfect comeback to the stage, smiled sincerely.He is really happy, because today is just the opening ceremony of his 'revenge'.Just as he was about to announce the start of the banquet, so that the guests who had been waiting for a long time could drink and eat, a cough interrupted his next words.

A cough from a guest off the stage interrupted Li Xu's words, but Liu Zaishi from the side of the stage could, because he was holding a microphone at this time, and this cough spread throughout the audience, like eye-catching ink marks on a piece of white paper.

Everyone focused on Liu Zaishi, not understanding why this experienced mc made such a mistake, until he picked up the microphone and spoke, everyone was completely stunned after explaining their doubts.

"We have the next one, Representative Lin."

The soft words resounded through the audience, and the audience was completely astonished when they saw Lin Weiran who was waiting to come on stage from the right side of the stage.In South Korea, a traditional country, two people can give the opening speech separately, but the latter one is often more important and more like the host.

The rumored pair of golden partners seems to be turning against each other today!

Putting on the headset, Lin Weiran stood in front of Li Xu, and the two of them exchanged a lot of information with just one look.

According to the opening speech, Li Xu was alone, and Lin Weiran's sudden joining was obviously planned in advance.

On this occasion, fight for this focus, and a clear message of discord will spread the next day.

Lin Weiran didn't seem to want to cooperate with him.

Although Li Xu was puzzled, nothing could be seen on his expression. He shook hands with Lin Weiran, then patted his shoulder, and returned from the original path on the left side of the stage. The stage was handed over to Lin Weiran himself.

There is a lot of top light, which separates the stage from the banquet hall. This place is the focus of everyone's attention and curiosity.

The reason why Li Xu and Lin Weiran are called one is the president and the other is the assistant is that 'idolworld' and 'virtual idol' are not officially divided. The positioning of 'virtual idol' is only one of the profit points of 'idolworld' in the eyes of insiders, and it is a subsidiary product of 'idolworld'.

When the news that Lin Weiran was in charge of "Virtual Idol" spread in the circle, this self-made producer naturally had a position in the hearts of everyone.

What 'virtual idol' is to 'idolworld' is what Lin Weiran is to Li Xu, it's just a derivative product, even though Lin Weiran is their creator.

"We miscalculated the situation, and the situation is far more complicated than we thought."

Li Xu, who had just stepped down from the stage, was taken aback because of Lin Weiran's quote.

"The current U.S. Treasury Secretary Geithner said so a month ago."

Everyone in the audience was completely stunned, because Lin Weiran's words seemed to imply their judgment.

Li Xu turned to look at the stage, frowning slightly.He was as curious as everyone else, wondering why Lin Weiran said that.

Both Li Xu and Lin Weiran are superficial characters. To put it bluntly, they are called wage earners. Everyone's pursuit is based on the basis of equal cooperation. Offended many people.

'Clap clap clap'

There was applause.

It is especially striking in this silent banquet hall.

All eyes were on the applauding man, a gold watch gleaming on his wrist.

The other man beside him chuckled and echoed, then everyone knew Han Weiyi who was respectfully standing behind the man with the golden watch... and finally everyone.

Just like what Han Weiyi said, there are more people in this circle who follow the wind than fans, so they won't tolerate other people's slips of the tongue and sudden foolish behavior like a firewood, let alone applaud casually at this time.

It's just that the man with the gold watch in his hand and the man next to him both symbolize capital. One of them is Xu Yongzhe, who owns the [-]% brand, and the other is Zhang Qihao, the head of E-Land Group. Laugh, and everyone laughs, and if they applaud, everyone claps.

The applause gradually became more intense than when Li Xu spoke just now, until Xu Yongzhe put down his hands, the applause gradually died down.Li Xu's expression was inevitably stiff, he never expected that Lin Weiran had already got the third apple.

The third apple is the one in the United States, the one that produced the iPhone.According to Li Xu's explanation, this apple is confidence, which can also be called courage.

The Apple in the United States has the confidence to be sought after by the public, so it has the courage to pioneer and innovate, and often make amazing moves.

But Lin Weiran, why are you?

"One thing that people have misunderstood for a long time is that 'virtual idol' is not a by-product of 'idolworld'."

That's it.

and also.

Lin Weiran himself is the one standing behind him in everyone's eyes...Mr. Zhao.

P chapter, it counts as 2 updates, I will try to release another update in the second half of the night, and release all the plots.
