MTL - Hold His Hand-Chapter 270 Small influencers and big bosses (2)
When Lu Yanzhou saw Xie Chengze, he immediately laughed, his eyebrows curved.
For several years before the end of the last world, Xie Chengze was very old.
He still loves Xie Chengze like that, but he can't help but feel distressed. Now that he sees a young and healthy Xie Chengze, he is naturally happy, and he especially wants to get close to Xie Chengze, such as kissing him or something.
However, for fear that Xie Chengze would be unhappy, Lu Yanzhou didn't dare to do anything, so he just said hello to Xie Chengze: "Mr. Xie!"
Xie Chengze looked at Lu Yanzhou, and was frozen in his seat, unable to say a word.
Being able to perceive the emotions of others and how others feel about him has never been a good thing for Xie Chengze.
His parents thought he was very well-behaved since he was a child, that was because he could always sense when his parents were disappointed or dissatisfied with him, and then tried to avoid it.
This made him a particularly well-behaved child in the eyes of his parents, but it also made him very tired.
It's the same with parents, not to mention with other people.
Playmates hate him because their parents praise him, friends are jealous of him because of his good grades, and acquaintances covet his appearance...
Xie Chengze called his ability "mind reading".
Just because of his mind-reading skills, his life is so real that it is difficult for him to be peaceful.
He can get some benefits by reading minds, for example, when talking about investment with people, he can guess the other person's thoughts through mind reading.
But this benefit was simply not enough to offset the various damages he got.
Like this moment.
What caught the eye was Lu Yanzhou's bright smile, but what he felt was Lu Yanzhou's disgust for him.
Xie Chengze knew from a very young age that he couldn't expect everyone to like him, but he was also a human being, and naturally he was willing to get along with people who liked him.
If he really wants to feel the malice from others all the time, he is afraid that he will go crazy.
Therefore, he has a good impression of Lu Yanzhou, the company's newly signed Internet celebrity.
Although Lu Yanzhou was lacking in many aspects other than his appearance, Lu Yanzhou liked him from the bottom of his heart, and this alone made him willing to stay with Lu Yanzhou.
This morning, Lu Yanzhou was still full of love and greeted him awkwardly. How long has it been since then, how has his feelings for him completely changed?
However, Xie Chengze has experienced too many such things, so he quickly packed up his mood and asked Lu Yanzhou with a smile, "What's the matter with you coming to me?"
When Lu Yanzhou came to Xie Chengze, he had nothing to do. He simply wanted to see Xie Chengze.
But Xie Chengze asked... Lu Yanzhou said, "Mr. Xie, I have something to tell you..."
"Go ahead." Xie Chengze had a perfect smile on his face, but his mood had fallen to the bottom.
In the past twenty years or so, he had met many people who hated him, but there was no one who hated him like Lu Yanzhou.
That strong disgust was about to bury his entire being.
He really couldn't understand what he did to make Lu Yanzhou hate him so much.
Lu Yanzhou said: "Mr. Xie, it's like this, my parents have been asking me for money, and I don't know what to do."
The original owner was in that small company before... the popular route is hard to describe.
He first copied other people's ideas and made his own short videos and posted them to fans on the platform. When he became popular... He immediately started to make money by doing everything he could.
At that time, the original owner could live broadcast for eight hours a day. He would sit at the table and cook, selling his own pots, hot sauce, and all kinds of food.
If the quality of the things he sells is good, that’s fine, then the small company is unreliable, and the quality of the things the original owner sells is very poor. For example, the food that many people buy back and taste, they don’t think it tastes good.
The so-called non-stick pans he sells are cheap, but people use them for a month or two, and they have changed from non-stick pans to sticky pans.
Such bad money, the small company in the past would force the original owner to earn it, but when Xie Chengze's company came, Xie Chengze's company would not allow him to do so.
The original owner has now signed a contract with Xie Chengze's company for two months. Xie Chengze arranged a lot of courses for the original owner to learn, and also offered the original owner a monthly basic salary of 5,000, but he never let the original owner make money from live broadcasts.
Naturally, the original owner had no money to give to his parents.
The parents of the original owner were in a hurry and called the original owner all day to ask for money.
In fact, the original owner had already noticed something was wrong, and even thought about going home to find out why his parents kept asking for money, but he hadn't set out yet.
Lu Yanzhou knew what happened to the original owner's parents, and he didn't take the original owner's parents seriously, but he planned to use the original owner's parents to pretend to be pitiful and approach Xie Chengze.
"Your parents keep asking you for money, what's the matter?" Xie Chengze asked.
Lu Yanzhou didn't hide it: "My family is not poor, my parents have jobs, but I was admitted to a college and they didn't let me study, they forced me to go out to work. When I became popular on short video platforms, they kept following me. For money, I have asked me for a total of 300,000 yuan so far... The company helped me repay it before, and I owe the company in front of the 100,000 yuan, and I just gave it to them. "
Xie Chengze investigated Lu Yanzhou before signing Lu Yanzhou.
If Lu Yanzhou's character has problems, he will never sign Lu Yanzhou.
As for Lu Yanzhou's character, according to his investigation, there is no problem - Lu Yanzhou does not smoke or drink, and his private life is clean and simple, but his family seems to be a little poor, and he even borrowed 100,000 yuan from the company to send it to his home.
When Xie Chengze helped Lu Yanzhou pay the liquidated damages, Xie Chengze paid the 100,000 yuan. He didn't think about asking Lu Yanzhou again, and he told Lu Yanzhou that if his family had difficulties, he could find him.
Now according to what Lu Yanzhou said... Isn't he in trouble at home? But the parents are insatiable?
How could Lu Yanzhou's parents treat him like this?
Wait, Lu Yanzhou suddenly hated him. Could it be that he was unhappy because he didn't make any money after joining his company?
Xie Chengze had many thoughts in his mind.
Lu Yanzhou showed some misery again at this time: "Mr. Xie, they just treat me as an ATM, and they want to kill me. I don't know what to do. They are my parents after all..."
Lu Yanzhou looked a little pitiful.
Seeing him like this, Xie Chengze couldn't help feeling sympathy for him, and even wanted to reach out and wipe the tears off his face.
How could he have such emotions? Xie Chengze was puzzled, the disgust that had been coming from Lu Yanzhou seemed to be pouring a bucket of ice water on his head.
Lu Yanzhou hated him so much, why did he still sympathize with Lu Yanzhou?
Thinking so in his heart, Xie Chengze opened his mouth and asked, "How could they treat you like this?"
"They didn't like me since they were young, they only liked my cousin." Lu Yanzhou looked at Xie Chengze with red eyes, and began to tell all kinds of things the original owner had encountered since childhood.
With what he knows about Xie Chengze, Xie Chengze will definitely sympathize with him, and then he can go further with Xie Chengze!
Lu Yanzhou has experienced so many worlds, and his acting skills have made great progress. He vividly played a poor young man who was unhappy because he was not loved by his parents.
Xie Chengze also felt that Lu Yanzhou was pitiful, and he even wanted to hug Lu Yanzhou into his arms to comfort him.
But Lu Yanzhou hates him so much...
"Your parents treat you like this, why should you give them any more money?" Xie Chengze said.
"Mr. Xie, do you think I shouldn't give them money?" Lu Yanzhou blinked and looked at Xie Chengze with a look of approval.
Xie Chengze said, "No."
Lu Yanzhou laughed and looked at Xie Chengze intently: "Mr. Xie, I will listen to you, and I will never give them money again."
Lu Yanzhou looked like he liked him very much and was willing to listen to him in everything, but Lu Yanzhou clearly hated him in his heart.
Xie Chengze tried his best to ignore the waves of disgust, and said, "Yes, just do it! Don't let them affect your mood now, just work hard and earn money!"
"Mr. Xie, I will, I will make good money!" Lu Yanzhou looked at Xie Chengze firmly.
Xie Chengze said: "It's good that you understand this... I remember you have a class later? Go to class."
Just as Lu Yanzhou was about to say that his class was two hours later, Xie Chengze said again, "I still have work to do."
Xie Chengze said so... Lu Yanzhou could only leave.
When he left, Lu Yanzhou was a little puzzled.
Xie Chengze's attitude towards him is not bad, and he can see that when he talks about his previous experience, Xie Chengze's eyes are full of distress.
But Xie Chengze's reaction was completely different from what he imagined.
Xie Chengze has always been very good to the original owner. It is reasonable for him to cry in front of Xie Chengze. Xie Chengze should comfort him. Why did Xie Chengze let him leave without saying a few words?
As far as he knows, Xie Chengze is not busy at all. In the past, the original owner asked Xie Chengze to say something or not, and Xie Chengze was willing to listen for a long time.
Xie Chengze would never like the original owner more than him?
Lu Yanzhou thought of this, but quickly smiled, knowing that it was impossible.
Xie Chengze may be uncomfortable or embarrassed.
Now Xie Chengze asked him to go to class... Lu Yanzhou simply went to the place where the company taught artists to take classes.
When he got there, Lu Yanzhou found that someone was already there.
Xie Chengze's company intends to develop the Internet celebrity segment and sign a few people. Of course, it is impossible to sign only Lu Yanzhou.
Lu Yanzhou was the first Internet celebrity they signed, and in the past few days, they signed a few more.
The original owners of these people had not met before, and Lu Yanzhou, of course, saw them for the first time, and greeted them immediately.
These people are a little careful, but who is Lu Yanzhou? With just a few words, he drew closer to these people.
Among these internet celebrities, Lu Yanzhou's favorite is the fat man named Zhen Shuai.
Zhen Shuai is a very lively and fat man. In the original plot, the original owner kept sticking to Xie Chengze and wanted to make quick money. Zhen Shuai also persuaded the original owner to make a short video with him to give the original owner his traffic.
It's just that the original owner didn't listen to him. Instead, he was very jealous of him. He felt that he was a big fat man, and it made no sense that his fans were several times his own.
That's right, Zhen Shuai has the most fans among the group of them now, and has more than 10 million fans on the short video platform.
The original owner signed a contract with Xie Chengze's company for two months, and shot some relatively high-quality short videos, but the number of fans was only more than 3 million.
However, Zhen Shuai is really fat, at least 300 pounds, so many people look at him with strange eyes.
Well, Zhen Shuai's online name is "Peerless Beauty", not only that, but also the short video he shot.
Zhen Shuai's video begins with a self-introduction. Zhen Shuai, who is 300 pounds, said to everyone in front of the camera: "Hello everyone, I am Zhen Shuai, a peerless and beautiful man..."
Then he will do other things, such as buying a bun or something. During the process of buying, some people will stare at him and mutter to himself: "So handsome, so beautiful..." These people also Will be dumped by him and do all sorts of incredible things.
At this time, Zhen Shuai sighed again: "Today, countless people are overwhelmed by my beauty. The life of a peerless beauty is so magnificent."
This is a funny video of Zhen Shuai, he is obviously a big fat man, but in his video, everyone will look at him blankly.
Couples quarreling on the street will stop arguing and be fascinated by him when they see him appear.
The old man in the wheelchair will stand up and follow him when he sees him.
The guy who rides his bike well will slam his head into the wall when he sees him.
Then, wearing a tattered T-shirt and weighing 300 pounds, he would sigh: "The life of a peerless beauty is so magnificent."
The contrast is so great that he has accumulated tens of millions of fans on short video sites, and countless people laughed when they watched his spoof videos.
What Lu Yanzhou admired most was Zhen Shuai's mentality. Many people called him fat on the Internet, but his mentality was always good.
Lu Yanzhou chatted with Zhen Shuai and learned that Zhen Shuai was thinking about the content of a new short video, so he came up with an idea: "How about making a series of sinking fish, falling geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers? For example, when you go to the supermarket, all the fish have sunk, such as going to raise Chicken farm, all the chickens have fallen..."
"Good idea!" Zhen Shuai felt that Lu Yanzhou's idea was a good idea. As for why the good Luoyan should be changed to Luoji... He made a funny video! These days, the geese have nowhere to look for: "The chicken is just dropped, just drop the slaughtered chicken. Then I will pick it up and say my famous words - the life of a peerless beauty is so magnificent..."
"Okay!" Lu Yanzhou asked again, "Brother Zhen, are you willing to take me and let me rub your traffic?"
Zhen Shuai said: "Okay, should we discuss a new script in this case? Well, I was walking on the street and saw that you were more handsome than me, and I thought it was incredible?"
"No, no, Brother Zhen, you don't need to hold me so much, just follow your usual style, Brother Zhen. For example, in the plot of the chicken farm, I am the staff of the chicken farm, and then I forgot to feed the chickens when I saw you. "Lu Yanzhou said.
In Zhen Shuai's short video, there are many passers-by who are fascinated by him when they see him. In the past, Zhen Shuai had his relatives and friends around him to shoot with him.
Lu Yanzhou didn't plan to let Zhen Shuai support him, he didn't mind being a supporting role in Zhen Shuai's short video.
Mainly...he didn't plan on making short videos all the time.
In other words, Xie Chengze's cultivation of him is doomed to fail.
Feeling embarrassed, Lu Yanzhou thought about helping Xie Chengze, such as making Zhen Shuai more popular.
His skin is definitely a handsome guy. He was fascinated by Zhen Shuai in Zhen Shuai's short video. The contrast is big enough and funny enough.
Lu Yanzhou was addicted to his work and discussed with Zhen Shuai what to do next.
At this time, Xie Chengze became more and more irritable.
After Lu Yanzhou left his office, he didn't know what was going on. He kept thinking about Lu Yanzhou.
Lu Yanzhou's frown and smile seemed to be right in front of him.
Lu Yanzhou hated him, which made him feel extremely disappointed.
If it was before that someone hated him so much, he would have sent them far away, out of sight, but now he doesn't want to do it at all.
After he couldn't see Lu Yanzhou, and couldn't feel Lu Yanzhou's disgust for him, he began to feel distressed about what happened to Lu Yanzhou.
Xie Chengze's face was a little ugly.
He didn't understand why he did this, but in the end he couldn't hold back and let someone call Lu Yanzhou's manager.
As soon as Lu Yanzhou's agent appeared, Xie Chengze felt several emotions from him - Lu Yanzhou's agent was all about trying to please him.
Xie Chengze talked to Lu Yanzhou's agent one after another, and he mentioned Lu Yanzhou while he was talking.
He felt the emotions of the person in front of him, and he spoke without a trace.
This manager of Lu Yanzhou is not smart. He really wants to be smart, and he would never go to such a small company to be an agent before, and then sign contracts with amateurs all over the street.
He chatted with Xie Chengze for a while, thinking he understood what Xie Chengze meant: "Mr. Xie, don't worry, Lu Yanzhou knows your love for Lu Yanzhou. I have been reminding him to let him repay you well."
After speaking, the agent smiled and gave Xie Chengze an "I understand" look.
Xie Chengze was still the boss at a very young age. From time to time, someone wanted to hook up with him and climb onto his bed.
He wasn't interested in that, but he met a lot of people who wanted to pimp.
The person in front of him is exactly the same as those who are trying to pimp, whether it is emotional or facial expressions!
"Have you persuaded Lu Yanzhou?" Xie Chengze asked.
Lu Yanzhou's agent said: "Mr. Xie, I persuaded him just now! Lu Yanzhou doesn't have any feelings for you, he will definitely come to you on his own initiative."
Xie Chengze had the urge to slap the agent.
He knew why Lu Yanzhou suddenly changed his attitude towards him, and he was extremely disgusted with him!
Lu Yanzhou is treating him as a pervert!
Lu Yanzhou is his artist, and he feels disgusted with him because he feels that he is incapable of resisting him...
This is something that is easy to figure out. Lu Yanzhou is a straight man, and he definitely can't stand being liked by a man like him!
But he really has no such thoughts. He likes Lu Yanzhou purely because Lu Yanzhou likes him and makes him happy!
Xie Chengze's first reaction was to explain clearly to Lu Yanzhou and tell Lu Yanzhou that he had nothing wrong with him.
After he explained it clearly, Lu Yanzhou's attitude towards him should return to the way he used to be?
At that time, they will be able to get along as before. He wants to hug Lu Yanzhou and comfort Lu Yanzhou...
Thinking of this, Xie Chengze suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He really didn't have any bad thoughts about Lu Yanzhou before, but now... he seems to have.
Today Lu Yanzhou hates him so much, he is very uncomfortable, and it is this situation that makes him wake up and realize that he likes Lu Yanzhou.
So this agent, and even Lu Yanzhou, were not misunderstood.
Xie Chengze wanted to punish Lu Yanzhou's manager before, but thinking that this person actually discovered his feelings one step ahead of him, and just told Lu Yanzhou, he couldn't say anything to punish.
Xie Chengze said, "Don't persuade Lu Yanzhou in the future!"
The agent only thought that Xie Chengze didn't like him interfering in the relationship between the two: "Mr. Xie, I will listen to you."
"Also, don't let Lu Yanzhou know about what I'm looking for you today." Xie Chengze said again.
The broker agreed as usual.
Xie Chengze asked him to leave, and when he left, he rubbed his brows.
He likes Lu Yanzhou, which is amazing, but there are actually traces to follow.
The first time he saw Lu Yanzhou, he liked it very much.
But Lu Yanzhou obviously doesn't like him. Lu Yanzhou may even be deeply homophobic or have been traumatized in this respect, so that after knowing his feelings, he deeply hates him.
This relationship of his is doomed to fail.
Xie Chengze didn't intend to force the person he liked, and finally sighed and planned to let go of Lu Yanzhou.
Lu Yanzhou hates him so much, he must be afraid of what he will do... In the future, it is better for him to stay far away from Lu Yanzhou.
As for Lu Yanzhou's current economic situation is not very good... Xie Chengze pondered that he could arrange some earning jobs for Lu Yanzhou.
Their company has a TV series about to be filmed. He didn't plan to let Lu Yanzhou join in. After all, Lu Yanzhou has no experience at all, but now... let Lu Yanzhou join the group.
In this way, Lu Yanzhou can be paid a salary.
And Lu Yanzhou's Internet celebrity career... Although the short videos that the company shot for Lu Yanzhou in the past two months are of much better quality than those that Lu Yanzhou shot before, they don't seem to be very popular with netizens.
He could search again, find more people who are good at writing short video scripts, and customize some scripts for Lu Yanzhou.
This way... slowly, Lu Yanzhou shouldn't hate him, right?
Xie Chengze sighed.
He didn't expect that he realized his feelings only after the person he liked hated him.
However, someone like him who has the ability to read minds is not suitable for establishing an intimate relationship with people, so it is actually very good to be completely separated from Lu Yanzhou.
Xie Chengze made up his mind to stay away from Lu Yanzhou, it is best not to contact him again.
But when he was about to leave the company after get off work, he was stopped by Lu Yanzhou: "Mr. Xie, Mister Xie, let me invite you to dinner!"
When Xie Chengze saw Lu Yanzhou from a distance, his heartbeat inevitably accelerated.
But immediately, the disgust from Lu Yanzhou made his heart stop suddenly, and he almost couldn't even jump up.
Does the person he likes hate him so much?
