Chapter 16: Never Reluctant
(Thanks to the three classmates, "Ye Zhengnan", "Taiyi Daozun", and "People under the umbrella", thank you!)
"Why did you come here in person today? Are you very idle?"
After Deng Lijun left Hong Kong, Wu Cheng resumed his previous home life.
In the morning, after Zhao Yazhi went to work, the people from the Urban Entertainment News Agency came to ask for manuscripts. Unexpectedly, the person who came was Wu Shulan himself. Wu Cheng smiled and joked.
Wu Shulan smiled and said, "Don't you invite me in and sit down?"
"Okay! Please come in!"
After giving Wu Shulan in, Wu Cheng said, "Sit as you like! What do you want to drink?"
Wu Shulan turned around and looked around, and finally smiled and said, "It's quite warm here! No wonder you stayed in this gentle countryside and couldn't feel happy."
"Please! I have been living here since I came to Xiangjiang! Where did I come from with the joy of Shu?"
"You really plan to stay here forever and not go to our house to see it?"
"It's not the time!" Wu Cheng shook his head and said, "I don't want to be regarded by some people as a poor relative who came to join you. After I succeed, no one will say it."
"Then when will you go to see my grandfather, your uncle?"
"This... isn't he the final word?"
"This is almost the same!" Wu Shulan smiled, then handed him a bulging yellow letter and said, "Here, this is for you!"
"What is this?" Wu Cheng asked, took it and opened it, and found a stack of Hong Kong dollars inside, which was estimated to be 50,000 or 60,000 yuan. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are there so many?"
"The 40,000 yuan of it is because you guided the planning fee for the revision of the Urban Entertainment Newspaper. It is considered a reward for you and it is also what you deserve. There were originally 50,000 yuan, but you said before that I will deduct what you owe from your bonus, and I will deduct it myself. Our uncle and nephew will settle the score clearly!"
"The other 25,000 yuan is your royalties over the past few days!" Wu Shulan smiled and said, "To be honest, you are now the number one person in the Xiangjiang novel industry. If those old seniors know, I wonder if they will be scolded to death!"
Wu Cheng chuckled and said seriously: "It is best not to let outsiders know about this matter, otherwise someone will definitely jump out and say that you are breaking the rules. If other authors ask them to increase their royalties, urban entertainment will have more enemies."
"Don't worry! I'm not that stupid yet!" Wu Shulan said with great enthusiasm.
Wu Cheng glanced at her and smiled and said, "You won't relax like this, right! Haha, if this is the case, it won't take long for the Urban Entertainment Newspaper to be stepped on to the bottom again!"
"What's the meaning?"
"Urban Entertainment Newspaper, the majority of the reason why it has such sales is due to the successful revision. Do you think other newspapers are stupid and not ready to revision? The resources of those big newspapers are already richer than you. As long as they recover, can you beat them?" Wu Cheng shook his head and said, "What you have to do now is to maintain your advantages and move forward bravely. You can't be proud and stop moving forward just because of a small achievement."
"Say, uncle, how should we maintain our advantage?"
"What do you think you should do?" Wu Cheng asked back.
At this time, Wu Shulan treated Wu Cheng completely as an adult.
"Expand the scale of the reporter team, explore more celebrity news, find more news materials, and hire famous film critics with high salaries to write film reviews, and then find more excellent digests..." Wu Shulan said everything she could think of.
Looking at Wu Cheng's expression that looked rather smiling, Wu Shulan felt guilty. It seemed that her media was in vain and she was not as knowledgeable as a child.
It was not until Wu Shulan was a little uncomfortable that Wu Chengcai said: "What you said is right, but the most fundamental solution is not to solve it, that is, the management of talents. What is the most important thing for a successful enterprise? It is not capital, not connections, but talent. What is the most direct way to retain talents? It is not the constraints of the contract, nor the maintenance of emotions, but the combination of interests. When the contract has its end, and when emotions fade, only interests are eternal."
Wu Shulan felt that the little uncle in front of her was simply a monster. At a young age, she had a very clear understanding of the world! He is really only twelve years old?
"As for how to improve the treatment, I don't need to say anything!" Wu Cheng smiled and said, "In addition to this, what you said before does need to be strengthened. There is another point: You need to have a bottom line in media, don't report everything, and some things need to be considered. By the way, your urban entertainment newspaper has not yet produced a supplement! If you want to make it, you can position it as a fashion entertainment magazine and a half-monthly magazine. Today, in Xiangjiang, fashion is still in its infancy. If you can be ahead, you can definitely lead the fashion trend of Xiangjiang..."
"Uncle, what do you think of this fashion magazine?"
Wu Cheng nodded and said, "I have some ideas. I will make a plan first and find you later! You can prepare first. At most half a month, I will be ready here!"
"That's true! By the way, find some time to meet my grandpa!"
"You make arrangements! I usually have time!"
"Well, what about the Peninsula Hotel tomorrow afternoon?"
"Forget it, Peninsula Hotel! There are so many celebrities coming and going there. If you really go there, your family will soon know that I, a 'poor relative', appeared!"
"You are not a poor relative now!"
"In their eyes, that's it!"
"Okay! Come to my newspaper!"
"That's true!"
...
After seeing Wu Shulan off, Wu Cheng put the big envelope next to his desk and then entered the work state. After coding for a day's manuscript, Wu Cheng began to write a fashion magazine planning book.
Although he almost didn't understand what a fashionable home was, from the perspective of the 21st century, he really felt that people at this time were dressed very rustic.
Therefore, Wu Cheng is still quite confident about this.
Moreover, Wu Cheng has already found a good model, that is Zhao Yazhi. He wants to make Zhao Yazhi a beautiful woman who combines fashion, nobility, elegance and other temperaments, and to make all people who follow the trend use her clothes as a benchmark.
By the evening after Zhao Yazhi came back, Wu Cheng had finished the planning.
At the same time, Wu Cheng began to draw some clothing sketches. In terms of painting, Wu Cheng learned some of his previous life and also learned comics for a period of time, but later he gave up. Wu Cheng was forced by his grandfather to learn calligraphy and painting since he was a child. His painting skills were more than one or two streets higher than him in his previous life. Therefore, drawing some sketches is not a problem.
A few clothing pictures composed of simple lines directly outline the beauty of those clothing. However, in Wu Cheng's beautiful drawings became a little weird in Zhao Yazhi's eyes. It has to be said that this is the difference in the aesthetics of the times.
However, Wu Cheng believes that as long as these clothes are made and hairstyles are combined, he can make Zhao Yazhi a very fashionable and charming woman. Especially her innate dignity, grandeur and noble and elegant temperament cannot be imitated by others.
"Why did you think of designing clothes? Have you learned this before?"
Zhao Yazhi looked at Wu Cheng with a little strangeness, and always felt that what Wu Cheng had in his head was really strange. Could it be that these clothes were clothing from the mainland? But this was impossible!
According to the news from the mainland, Xiangjiang can be seen occasionally. From the pictures in the newspapers, you can see that the mainland is quite backward.
"This is my talent, and others can't learn it." Wu Cheng smiled proudly and said, "Sister Zhi, these are designed specifically for you. When you look back, you can try it. Then see how I will create a woman who combines fashion, noble, grand and elegant. When Chow Tai Fook asks us to shoot advertisements, there will be nothing wrong with our lion talking!"
"Did you have planned it long ago?" Zhao Yazhi asked in surprise.
"The plan is certain, but it was just a coincidence. I wanted to wait." Wu Cheng said, and stopped, and finally looked at Zhao Yazhi and said, "Sister Zhi, when you become famous, TVB will sign a contract with you, so you don't want to sign it to them. TVB is too stingy, you are just a vampire. And I am going to open a film company in the future, so I have to leave it to me. Of course, if they are willing to sign a contract with you, you can consider it."
"What? Are you going to open a film company?" Zhao Yazhi was shocked by Wu Cheng again.
"It's nothing strange!" Wu Cheng smiled and said, "Only when we open a film company ourselves, Sister Zhi can film when she wants to film and rest when she wants to!"
"Chengzai, do you know how much it costs to make a movie?"
"I know!"
"I know you dare to do anything randomly? What if you pay for it?"
"I'll write more novels if I've lost money. Even if I don't read the novel, Sister Zhi can support me!" Wu Cheng said with a smile, not taking that as a matter for a while.
Zhao Yazhi was amused by Wu Cheng's dick, but at last he held Wu Cheng in his arms emotionally and said softly: "Xiao Cheng, why should he be so kind to me?"
Living in her arms, Wu Cheng found a very comfortable position, leaning against the two elastic soft balls, breathing the fragrance in it, closing his eyes and smiling: "Actually, there are not so many reasons. I just want to see Sister Zhi happy and happy. Sister Zhi, are you willing to create such a happy paradise with me?"
"But...but I don't know anything, and I don't know what I can help you."
At this time, Zhao Yazhi was no longer as confident as Wu Cheng.
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Sister Zhi just needs to be responsible for beauty. I'll make money!"
"Then...I'll try it!"
"Then let's make a decision!"
"Don't just sell me! I'm so stupid, you're so smart, and you may still count the money for you if you sell me!" Zhao Yazhi pouted in a pretty pout.
At this time, she didn't realize that the expressions of the two of them did not look like their sisters and younger brothers at all, but like their elder brothers and younger sisters!
"How can I bear to let it go! I will never bear it!" Wu Cheng murmured.
