Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 258: Miaomiao: It’s Almost My Birthday
Gu Yunmu stayed for a few days, and sent all kinds of photos to Gu Qize daily.
There were photos of Tuanzi practicing martial arts, photos of him and Tuanzi together, and photos of him showing off. Occasionally, there were photos of Gu Cheng, the second uncle and aunt, Gu Wangchao who would occasionally return, and the third uncle, aunt, and Gu Chi.
Despite the distance, these photos surprisingly brought Gu Qize closer to these relatives.
But that’s no excuse for this annoying brother to stay at someone else’s house and treat it like his own.
Office.
The man with an imposing aura was so angry he tugged at his tie.
He usually never checks personal messages at the office and speaks concisely, but now he couldn’t take it anymore and sent a long string of texts.
"Our home in Jiangshui also has a place. When you return to Jiang City, go there. Don’t keep bothering Gu Cheng and Miaomiao; they are both busy and exhausted! Also, regardless of whether it’s your home or not, you shouldn’t be so careless. Didn’t you notice the chip crumbs all over the floor? Don’t disturb Miaomiao when she’s eating! And stop intentionally taking unflattering photos of others..."
A lengthy message filled with complaints.
Most of Gu Yunmu’s actions dance right on his nerve points.
Whether it’s the discourteous act of staying at someone else’s home unabashedly or constantly eating crumbly snacks without cleaning up immediately, or taking inappropriate photos, etc.
If he weren’t truly swamped this week, he would have flown to Jiang City immediately to teach his annoying brother a lesson.
It’s hard to say if Gu Yunmu naturally steps on these nerve points or if he does it deliberately to provoke Gu Qize and lure him to Jiang City.
In any case, the elder brother is furious, while the younger brother cavalierly says, ’Got it, I won’t do it again,’ yet sends similar photos shortly after.
The result is that for the past few days, people reporting to the CEO’s office spoke hurriedly, finished quickly, and unlike before, dared not get chummy. Those attempting to gloss over their tasks didn’t even dare to report in.
Before long, it was time for the finale of "Let’s Transform Together."
The show reached unprecedented popularity, which even benefited the artists performing in the evening. Conversely, the artists’ own fan bases contributed to the show’s viewership, creating a win-win situation.
Furthermore, the director of "Let’s Transform Together" finally gained a foothold at the network. His other proposals caught the leadership’s attention, with hopes for a second season of this show and other new proposals.
The resident guests, through this show, received various offers for scripts, endorsements, and variety shows to some extent. Even Gu Chi, a painter, surprisingly received an endorsement offer related to art supplies, though he declined.
He joined the show purely because his sister had no one to accompany her and needed to participate in the show’s promotion of ancient martial arts. He had no intention of becoming an entertainer. Moreover, endorsement is a responsibility to the fans. If people buy products because they like him and his reputation, and the products have issues, he can’t absolve himself of the blame.
Especially now that many products are well-promoted but of poor quality, or their quality declines soon after. It’s almost impossible to guard against, better not endorse at all.
Tuanzi also became a little winner.
The show started with street performances, then practicing martial arts at the seaside in the mornings and evenings, and outdoor performances to promote a restaurant at night.
With other artists joining the outdoor performances, they brought in traffic. Inevitably, these audiences watched her performances, and some genuinely interested in traditional martial arts turned into reputation value.
As the show wrapped up, her reputation value had reached 55 million. Some were from newcomers and others from old fans gaining a deeper understanding and contributing again. Additionally, as a member of the National Martial Arts Association and a young expert, this show attracted some curious or unconvinced peers.
After watching the show, the curious became fans, and most of the unconvinced were won over. Recognition from peers can provide more reputation value.
Her reputation value soared, giving Tuanzi hope to see her parents return, along with multiple photos of her parents’ lives in another world, making her smile all day long.
The sponsors also made substantial gains, with the biggest winners being Runze Chain Hotel and Jiajia Furniture.
Runze Chain Hotel is a brand under the Runze Hotel Group. Initially, when the group’s general manager insisted on sponsoring, some board members had reservations. But they didn’t expect such high returns in the end, and they all praised Gu Qize at the board meeting.
No one believed Gu Qize invested in a barely launched show just for his sister. The board members thought, worthy of being Gu Yu’s son, mature beyond his years, with long-term vision, securing his position as general manager more firmly.
Jiajia Furniture is a local brand in Sea City. Initially, they sponsored a batch of tables and chairs only because they signed a non-compensatory agreement, but they made a profit even before the first episode aired.
Since they were the first furniture brand to sponsor, the show couldn’t accept sponsorships from other major furniture brands later, allowing Jiajia Furniture to absorb all the furniture-related heat from the show.
Jiajia Furniture expanded its scale, and the owner, Liu Chao, feeling guilty about the popularity, quickly reinvested and even replaced the welfare home’s furniture for free, including the children’s rundown bunks.
Later, as Jiajia Furniture’s scale stabilized at an appropriate size, its monthly net profit became astonishing compared to before. Liu Chao then regularly donated to the welfare home and promised to support orphans who were admitted to university but couldn’t afford tuition and living expenses.
Furthermore, through this program, many people got to know the children in this welfare home, discovering that most of them were ill or disabled. Many warm-hearted individuals donated, and some helped contact hospitals to offer free or heavily discounted treatment for these children.
The first season of "Let’s Transform Together" ended almost perfectly.
After the show, with the winter break approaching, various live-stream programs sprang up everywhere. Even so, the rerun popularity of "Let’s Transform Together" was notably high.
The continued popularity from reruns brought in reputation value, so Tuanzi didn’t need to rush into the next program and could instead look forward to her birthday.
January 1st, New Year’s Day, is Gu Miaomiao’s birthday. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
Less than three days until New Year’s Day, less than three days until Gu Miaomiao officially turns five.
This is Tuanzi’s first complete birthday with family by her side, she is both nervous and excited.
For Gu Cheng and Gu Che, this day is also very special.
When their little sister was six months old, an accident happened, and they thought they had lost their parents and sister on that day. Who knew that half a year ago, things took a turn, their sister returned, along with news of their parents’ hopeful return.
"We must prepare well."
After finishing the rehearsal for a TV station’s New Year’s Eve gala, Gu Che called Gu Cheng.
"I only participated in a prerecorded New Year’s Eve show. After the recording, I will head back as soon as the performance is done."
