Although he seems mature in various ways, at heart he’s still a traditional and conservative person. When faced with responsibilities he might not be able to fulfill, there’s always been an elent of avoidance in his subconscious.
"Uh..." This ti it was Lin Nianwei’s turn to be dumbfounded.
With a sunny and handso appearance, excellent fishing skills, and slick and mature social skills, it was hard to believe Zhang Yang had psychological issues. Had anyone else told her this, she wouldn’t have believed it, but coming from Zhang Yang himself, Lin Nianwei couldn’t help but consider it true.
"Ever since I was little, my mom taught to be self-respecting and self-loving! Doing that kind of intimate thing before marriage felt inappropriate to too. But your ntal state is completely different from mine! Should I help you find a psychologist?" Lin Nianwei tentatively asked.
Zhang Yang smiled and shook his head, ignoring the cigarette sll still in his mouth, he kissed Lin Nianwei on the forehead: "No need! My situation is different from others! Even a psychologist can’t help!
As my one and only official girlfriend, all you need to do is just continue doing your thing, give so ti, I’ll solve it myself and give you a perfect answer!"
What kind of international joke is this? As a reincarnated person with cheat power-ups, such a secret can’t even be told to parents, let alone a psychologist.
"Alright! My bad, I shouldn’t have deliberately thrown a tantrum at you!"
Now that Lin Nianwei had the promise she wanted, she felt like a little girl with her favorite toy, and the gloom clouding her mind cleared up instantly.
"Why don’t you co upstairs for a bit? At this hour, my parents shouldn’t be asleep yet!" Zhang Yang suggested.
Lin Nianwei shook her head: "No, who visits at midnight? If I’m visiting, let it be dayti!"
"Then let’s take a walk before heading ho?"
"Sure!"
And so, the two of them got out of the car. Xiao Wei wrapped her arm around Zhang Yang’s and they strolled around the building down below for a good few rounds before stopping.
"It’s getting late, I should head back! You get so early rest! Love you!" A cheerful Xiao Wei naturally gave Zhang Yang a kiss, shook the car keys in her hand, and climbed into the driver’s seat of the van.
"Drive slow on the way, and ssage when you get ho!"
"Okay!"
Watching Lin Nianwei drive the van away from the street, Zhang Yang smacked his lips tasting the remaining lip gloss, thoughtfully.
...
For the next few days, Zhang Yang’s life returned to its normal track.
He attended company etings as usual, and when he had ti, he busied himself with fishing livestreams and training ng Fan and Liu Zi.
It’s worth ntioning that the summary tasks Zhang Yang assigned were excellently organized in the reports by the two brothers. Even Liu Zi identified many weak points in the competitions, clearly having conducted a profound self-analysis of his weaknesses.
In response to the problems exposed during practice, Zhang Yang specifically adjusted the next stage training plan, including various fishing techniques reinforcent and basic skills training, increasing the training intensity.
Unknowingly, it was already late September. One day, while Zhang Yang was helping the two brothers practice at Liyuan Practice Pool, his phone rang.
Taking a quick glance at the caller’s na, Zhang Yang answered it without hesitation.
The call was from Liu Xingyun. Ever since he left Inke for Kuaishou, the two had not communicated for quite a long ti.
"Hey? Any instructions, President Liu!"
"Damn! It’s only been a while since our last call, and now you’re treating like an outsider, Zhang Yang!" Liu Xingyun’s hearty voice ca through the phone, clearly in good spirits from the tone.
"Hehe! No, just kidding around! What’s up, need sothing from ?"
"There actually is, I’ve co to Kuaishou on your suggestion, and over here, as you said, we’re preparing new features for internal testing!"
"Oh? Internal testing? What features mainly? Need to do anything?"
"Mainly internal invitation for livestreaming tests! I’ve got a few spots and you were the first to co to mind for this!"
"Livestreaming? That quick?" Hearing this news, Zhang Yang was a bit unsettled.
In Zhang Yang’s mory, Kuaishou launched its livestreaming feature in the first half of 2016. Back then, livestreaming permissions weren’t open to just anyone, there were rather high entry barriers.
He clearly rembered there were rchants on Taobao specially doing this business, charging fees to help players get livestreaming permissions. Wasn’t it fifty or a hundred bucks back then?
The progress was significantly ahead of Zhang Yang’s expectations, earlier than he rembered.
"Quick? Those company execs over here think it’s too slow! Working overti every day, damn, I haven’t rested before 2 a.m. for over half a month, and the morning pee is practically yellow!" Liu Xingyun crudely complained.
"Uh, take care of yourself!" Zhang Yang felt a bit awkward, didn’t know what to say, he could only vaguely respond.
"Here’s the thing, create an account and I’ll get your permissions enabled from backstage! Try streaming to help us find bugs, and then give so constructive feedback?" Liu Xingyun directly proposed his request.
"Alright! No problem, we’re pros at this!" Zhang Yang agreed without hesitation.
"Settled then, you get on this. I’ll hang up for now, send a WeChat ssage when you’re set!" Liu Xingyun made a move to hang up.
"Wait, hold on, don’t hang up!" Zhang Yang hurriedly interrupted.
"Anything else?" Liu Xingyun was indeed quite busy, he still had several old friends to notify individually.
"I want to start an MCN agency, what’s the platform’s stance? Could you check for ?" Zhang Yang continued.
"Oh? What made you think of doing that? Do you understand anything about it?" Hearing the term MCN, Liu Xingyun was slightly taken aback. In his mind, this line of work didn’t quite match the impression Zhang Yang had given him.
MCN stands for Multi-Channel Network, in layman’s terms, it’s an influencer incubation center, a company or agency that specializes in cultivating and supporting internet celebrities.
The MCN model originated from the mature influencer economy abroad. With strong capital support, it ensures the continuous output of content by its artists while diating collaborations with external brands or resources to achieve stable comrcialization.
Zhang Yang being a fishing influencer seed unrelated to this matter.
"Hehe, I’m not very knowledgeable about it, but it’s not important because there’s you! Interested? I can offer you a stake!" Zhang Yang openly expressed his intentions to recruit Liu Xingyun for support.
"It’s a good ti indeed, but there needs to be a stable monetization model, right? Signing artists and broadcasters isn’t that easy, you need signing fees and have to ensure subsequent inco! Got any ideas?" Liu Xingyun asked.
"Of course, I never fight unprepared battles! Stable inco is simple, we have a fishing gear company and mature products!" Zhang Yang confidently stated.
Hearing the term fishing gear company, Liu Xingyun finally reacted. In his fixed perception, an MCN agency should cater to internet celebrities, attractiveness strears, and talent strears, not considering the outdoor fishing category.
After thinking carefully, if it involves creating an influencer account matrix alongside personal products, going through the whole process from promotion, production, to sales and profit realization, forming a complete business cycle seems feasible.
"Hearing you say that, it seems doable!"
"Alright, since you nodded, consider a part yours! I’ll get a detailed plan for you later! Talk later, then!"
"Ok!" Liu Xingyun agreed and quickly ended the call.
Hanging up the phone, Zhang Yang stood up from the fishing box excitedly and clenched his fist, punching into the air.
Damn, finally, the opportunity has co!!
