The high-speed train departs from Shangjing and reaches Daicheng in more than an hour.
Lu Cheng was not clean when he returned home because many people came to pay New Year greetings. He needs to go out to repay the gift, and also goes to Jiang's house to pay New Year's greetings.
Huang Yingyi is both his mother-in-law and his graduate tutor.
He found a car and pulled a round table with a diameter of two meters, six chairs, and a retro writing desk. When he placed the furniture outside Jiang's house, the furniture gave off a golden luster, attracting many neighbors to come and watch, including some who came out to pay New Year's greetings.
Many people were talking around the furniture:
"What kind of wood is this? Why is it so beautiful?"
"Did you apply gold powder on it?"
"Did you use special paint?"
"This seems to be golden nanmu! I saw an advertisement on TV two days ago. I heard that there is a woodware factory in Daicheng that produces a batch of golden nanmu furniture. This thing is very expensive, easily worth tens of millions! "
Jiang Fangcheng opened the door and saw the furniture. His eyes also shone, and he thought to himself: "This son-in-law is really awesome! He actually gave me such a high-end gift!"
Someone next to me asked: "Mr. Jiang, who is this young man? Why do I give you such a heavy New Year's gift?"
Someone not far away laughed and said, "You are really a mortal! As a native of Daicheng, you don't even recognize Lu Cheng!"
"Lu Cheng? It sounds familiar."
"You live in a mountain village? Do you have internet access at home? How come you don't even know about such a big thing?"
Another person said: "Congratulations to Mr. Jiang, you have such a good son-in-law!"
Someone echoed: "How enviable! During the Chinese New Year, I will give you tens of millions of dollars in gifts! This young man is not an easy person!"
Jiang Qiuyun came over and twisted his arm: "Humph! You are acting strange again! Why don't you send the furniture directly to your home? Why put it outside!" What she meant was: "You have storage equipment, and I also have storage equipment." My parents still have amulets, and they’re not afraid of you showing off your storage abilities. Why do you put the furniture outside? Isn’t this intentional for people to see?"
Lu Cheng didn't mean to show it to others, but just out of habit. In addition, there was already more furniture in the room, and he couldn't put it away when he suddenly moved it in.
Jiang Fangcheng is coming to move the table.
Jiang Qiuyun said: "Dad, don't move, let us come."
"The desk looks heavy. Can it be moved?"
"no problem."
Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun carefully moved the furniture out of the room and moved the new furniture in.
Jiang Fangcheng liked that writing table very much. He stretched out his hand to touch the table and said with a smile: "If I write on such a table, I can at least improve my calligraphy by 20%!"
Jiang Qiuyun said: "How can it be! Dad, you are too exaggerated!"
Lu Cheng said, "It's really possible! This is no ordinary golden nanmu. The pattern on it is similar to the 'Thunder Cloud Pattern'. Observing it more will help you understand the way of heaven."
Jiang Qiuyun asked: "What to do with the furniture left outside?"
Lu Cheng originally wanted to say, "I'll take it with me when I leave."
Jiang Fangcheng said: "I'll post a post in the friend group and drag anyone away if they need it."
So Lu Cheng ignored it.
I went into the room and sat for a while, talking about the Spring Festival Gala.
Jiang Qiuyun said: "I saw you on TV. You were standing on the stage, wearing sportswear and no makeup. You looked a little silly."
Lu Cheng said: "How stupid! That's called simplicity and simplicity! Popular and professional!"
"Where is it popular? Where is it special?"
"Take responsibility for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation! Keep fit for the glory of the Olympics! A strong young man will make a country strong, and a young man's wisdom will make a country wise. The sky is blue and the earth is yellow. Even through the ages, there are eight wastes. The future is like the sea, and the future is long. !”
"Huh? How do you remember these words?"
"Hey, I'll remember it after reading it once."
"You are 25 years old, so you are still a teenager!"
"If I could live to be 160, wouldn't I still be a teenager at 25?"
Jiang Qiuyun remembered what he said, practicing "Three Flowers Gathering Five Qi Chaoyuan" could live 300 years. When she heard that 160 years old was heard, she thought it was normal.
The two bickered and grinded their teeth for half an hour before Lu Cheng returned to the Mid-level Villa.
He began to cut the 20 rough jade stones. In order to buy these rough stones, he spent 130 million.
He used a cutting machine to remove the skin and reveal the jade flesh.
Sure enough, among the 20 rough stones, there were 10 waxy ice types, 6 ice types, 3 high ice types, and 1 glass type.
These rough stones are relatively large, at least over 30 kilograms, and the largest one is 280 kilograms. After grinding off the skin and cutting off the stone, the remaining jade material adds up to a considerable amount. The disadvantage is that there are not many high-quality pigments.
Lu Cheng knew that this was a normal thing. It was extremely rare to find a piece of high-ice color material in a rough stone shop. Colorful glass materials were as scarce as rare flowers. This is the market in 2029, and there are fewer and fewer good jadeite rough stones. Because of the use of large-scale machine mining in recent years, many mines have been mined out.
Then, he took out the "Water Escape Talisman" and the "Earth Escape Talisman" and pondered for a while.
"I can't try these two talismans easily, because there is no air underground, and I haven't advanced to innate yet. I will be out of breath when I get underground, and it is easy to suffocate to death underground. Unless I bring an oxygen bottle!"
So, he put away these two kinds of jade talismans. He would not use it easily unless absolutely necessary.
In the blink of an eye, it’s the seventh day of the first lunar month, which is February 20th.
Early that morning, Lu Cheng picked up Jiang Qiuyun in his car, rushed to the high-speed rail station, and took the first train to Shanghai.
They sat in first-class seats because it was still during the Spring Festival and there were not many people around.
Jiang Qiuyun said: "Did you know that among the current sites, Fanghua accounts for half of the female channels, and Chinese is the main male channel. Fanghua is also a listed company, and its current market value is similar to that of Hanwen."
Lu Cheng asked: "I remember that there is also a channel for girls in Chinese, right?"
"It used to be, but later it was sold to Fanghua. Fanghua also annexed many websites, and its original male channels were sold to Hanwen, and only the female channels were retained."
"Are you the youthful Nanpowan now?"
"In 2028, although I have high subscriptions for several books, my total income is not yet the first, but only the third."
"Who's number one?"
"Jia Yuanchun."
"Why is it called such a name?"
"It's a pen name, my real name is Huang Sigu."
"Haha, this name is even weirder."
"Huang Sigu is a veteran author. She currently has ten books online, so her income is relatively high. Three of her books have been made into movies and TV series."
"Is this man forty years old?"
"I don't know. There is always someone in their thirties."
Lu Cheng asked again: "Who is second?"
Jiang Qiuyun replied: "The second name 'Guo Hongxiu' is her real name. She is also an old author."
Lu Cheng asked again: "Why does the station hold an annual meeting?"
"Because it is a listed company, it needs to promote its business, publicize its achievements, and reward authors."
"So there's a bonus?"
Jiang Qiuyun replied: "Yes, this time, options will be awarded directly to great writers. According to last year's income, one option will be awarded for every 10,000 yuan of income. Options are not equal to stocks. They are a right to purchase stocks. The exercise price is 5.4 yuan per share. One lot is 100 shares."
Lu Cheng asked: "What is its current stock price?"
"The current stock price is 18 yuan."
"In other words, it's 70% cheaper."
"My subscription income last year was 88 million, and rewards were 37 million. Including TV drama licensing fees, and peripheral development of audio comics and the like, the total income was 220 million. To exercise the option and buy shares, I need to spend 11.88 million."
"This is equivalent to increasing capital for youth."
"Well, maybe someone gave up on exercising their power."
Lu Cheng smiled and said: "We won't give up, we bought it! This little money is nothing."
This is the first time he knows about Jiang Qiuyun's financial situation. These are just Fanghua's income. There are also two books, including "Ruan Lang Gui" and "Barefoot A Zhen". They have taken the physical publishing route and their income is not included. .
He thought to himself: "This girl is a treasure trove. Writing it is not a one-time deal. Just like Jin Yong, he made it again and again, and I don't know how many times he remade it."
Similarly, Jiang Qiuyun knew that he bought jade, made endorsements, and sent jade to auction, but she didn't know exactly how much money he made. She doesn't need to know clearly, anyway, she has some of the best jade bracelets in her hands!
Jiang Qiuyun thought to herself: "Although there are only more than thirty jade bracelets, according to Lu Cheng, each one can be worth hundreds of millions if it is auctioned. Holding these jade bracelets is like squeezing his balls, humming , I know this person likes jade." Thinking of this, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
The high-speed train flies by.
Arrive at Magic City at 9:30. It took an hour to take a taxi to the Rockbund Art Museum, where the annual meeting was held.
When I walked in, I saw that the spacious exhibition hall was full of people.
On the stage directly in front, a cultural program is being held.
As soon as Jiang Qiuyun arrived, she was welcomed into the small hall next to her by the organizer.
Lu Cheng activated the "Disguise Talisman", slightly changed his appearance, sat down in the hall, and watched the performance quietly.
The performers at the beginning were just young actors, but after 10:30, some well-known celebrities appeared on the stage.
For the first time, Lu Cheng felt the exaggeration of star chasing. When several heavyweight movie stars including Zhang Yuehua appeared on the stage, the momentum was not only overwhelming, but it also made people's ears roar.
A group of female and male fans screamed wildly.
Then each writer appeared on stage and began meeting with fans. Compared with those celebrities, Internet celebrities are really inconspicuous.
In the final analysis, actors stand out from thousands of choices, and they are all popular regardless of their figure or face; although female writers are smart, most of them are not very photogenic. And it is difficult to have a slim figure.
In other words, most fans come for the actors, not for the Internet celebrity.
The official time of the annual meeting is three hours. Looking at the whole article, it mainly revolves around the core of IP.
Awards were mixed with actor awards, with big stars appearing on stage several times. More or less, they all starred in film and television works adapted from Fanghua's IP. And depending on the situation, there will be no shortage of cooperation with Fanghua in the future.
As far as the author is concerned, there are indeed many great people coming, and all the female channel ladies are dressed up to attend.
There are thirty or forty great gods in youth. These people have different divinities and are arranged according to their annual income. Those with lower incomes appear first, and those with higher incomes appear later.
In addition to author appearances and various awards, there are also guest performances interspersed. The organizer hired first-class singers and bands, and famous singers sang live, which was quite enjoyable.
This annual meeting is an IP achievement display or promotion meeting.
Youth needs traffic to further open up the market, and celebrities also need these occasions to show their presence.
However, what Lu Cheng really wanted to see was an annual meeting centered on the author. In the end, no such effect was seen. Of course, this is only the first day. Tomorrow there will be offline communication with great masters, and dinner parties before and after the game, which will help them find like-minded people to some extent.
The real annual meeting is only in the audience, and the stage is just a stage for performances.
Jiang Qiuyun came on stage at 2 p.m. When she came on stage, she was greeted by a tsunami of cheers from fans. Although she is a newcomer, she is the king of the small world of female videos because her average subscription is already the highest. Her peerless appearance added to her absolute appeal. Not only the fans in the audience cheered, but even the movie stars present took the initiative to take photos with her.
With a smile on her face, Zhang Yuehua stepped forward to hug her, praising her as more beautiful than the movie star Tong Lili of the previous generation, and saying that she was his noble one.
She was able to get the lead role in "The Bald Man Under the Lamp" because Jiang Qiuyun helped speak for her. With this series, she has returned to the ranks of top actresses.
The rest of the actresses also came on stage, including several new-generation florets, especially the filming of "Feng Yue Huang Meiyu" was about to be completed, in which the leading actress Luo Wenying and several supporting actors came on stage to hug Jiang Qiuyun.
The fans below were screaming and taking photos and videos!
"I've only heard that Yun Ji is a beautiful author, but I didn't expect her appearance to reach this level! Standing next to a popular movie star, not only is she not inferior at all, but she is also far superior to everyone else."
"Yes, Luo Wenying is a popular movie star. She is 23 years old this year. She claims to be 1.72 meters tall. However, standing next to Yun Ji, she is not as tall as Yun Ji! In terms of appearance and deportment, Yun Ji is also taller. Better than that! Looking back, you can smile and be charming, the pink and white in the Sixth Palace are colorless! Oh my, I fell in love with Yun Ji after just one look, what should I do? Who will save me? "
There are both male and female fans. Female fans love Yun Ji’s works, while male fans love her appearance.
A reporter interviewed Jiang Qiuyun on the spot: "Miss Yunji, most of the people here today are your fans. On behalf of these people, I would like to ask a question that everyone is concerned about. Do you have a regular boyfriend? It's the Olympic champion Lu Cheng. Really? Why doesn't he accompany you to the annual meeting? Is he afraid to come because he's afraid of being beaten up by male fans? "
"Eternal God Emperor"
Jiang Qiuyun glanced at him and said with a smile: "He's here, he's sitting under the stage."
"Ah? Really? Mr. Lu is invited to come on stage!"
The fans in the audience looked around, but did not recognize Lu Cheng.
The host on the stage is also calling: "Lu Cheng is invited to come on stage. Mr. Lu, you are the national idol. Please come out and say a word to everyone, okay?"
