Chapter 1221 1321. The Stinky Steve

Just when Liu Song was on the phone, Nie Wei was also on the phone, but the person he called was Liu Jing, mainly to tell Liu Jing about his rejection of LE Group.

What Nie Wei didn't expect was that just after he mentioned that Liu Song came to Nanhai to find him, and before he even mentioned what happened next, Liu Jing immediately said coldly: "Mr. Nie, please don't give that guy any illusions. LE Group is not our ideal target for cooperation. Their mobile phone technology is too backward and it doesn't help us at all. You don't have to consider any of my factors. I am considering it completely from the company's perspective."

Nie Wei was speechless after hearing these words, and then he couldn't help laughing.

"I have already rejected it. Great minds think alike. LE Group's mobile phone core technology is too backward and it is not our ideal partner for cooperation."

"Mr. Nie, you are so wise." Liu Jing smiled and flattered Nie Wei.

She felt no burden at all, but was relieved after hearing the news. If Nie Wei really agreed to Liu Song, she would feel uncomfortable all over, even though she knew that Nie Wei's decision was definitely not for her face, because she didn't have that much face.

Of course, it was also related to her leaking the news. This was wrong, even if Nie Wei had already "punished" her, but it was wrong, not that it was not wrong after the punishment.

"I'm afraid my brother will leak the news?" Liu Jing suddenly said worriedly.

Hearing this, Nie Wei couldn't help but laugh, and immediately denied: "LE Group is not your brother's boss, and Liu Daheng is not a person without tolerance, otherwise he would not have been able to bring LE Group into the Fortune 500."

"You are right, I think if my father heard you say this, he would definitely invite you for a cup of tea." Liu Jing smiled and replied. In her impression, her father was really not the kind of petty person, and of course he was also very dictatorial, whether at home or in the company.

On the contrary, her brother, Liu Jing really looked down on Liu Song from the bottom of her heart, always felt that her brother was too undisciplined, and did not do things very uprightly, always thinking of taking shortcuts and taking crooked ways.

But with her father around, Liu Song couldn't jump up.

Half a month had passed since Nie Wei rejected Liu Song. During this period, there were reports that LE Group was going to sell its mobile phone business. Of course, the media reports all used the word "suspected", and the official Weibo of LE Group directly denied this.

But Nie Wei knew that this news was released by LE Group in order to wait for a good price.

Don't think Lenovo is worthless in Nie Wei's eyes, because Nie Wei is not prepared to enter the physical mobile phone business at all. Fanxing Group is currently mainly developing VR technology, which is the foundation for Fanxing to gain a foothold in the world technology circle in the future.

But for those mobile phone manufacturers, the value of the LE mobile phone brand is still there, after all, it is a generation of sentiment.

Of course, it is obviously impossible for them to offer too high a price, so LE Group released the news while denying it, and then waited for a good price.

Nie Wei estimated that the next step for LE Group was to lay off employees. It was self-evident which part was to be laid off. After all, if they didn't want to make mobile phones, why did they still support thousands of employees?

The matter of LE Group has basically nothing to do with Nie Wei. It doesn't matter whether the plan will be exposed or not. Anyway, the Star Group will also release the news and select suitable partners.

Zhou Duoduo did not go back immediately after filming the advertisement. Instead, she took the team to play in the Bird's Nest Hotel for three days and three nights as scheduled. They played all the things that can be played in the South China Sea. On the last night, Shu Chang even arranged a bonfire party for them. A group of people reveled until midnight and chartered a plane back to Kyoto early the next morning.

The episode of "One-day Star Assistant" with Nie Wei and Shu Chang was also officially broadcast in the past two days.

Nie Wei must be praised. He was ordered to complete the task perfectly. Even the official microblog of Coca-Cola posted a message to express his gratitude. Of course, there was also a person who was more discussed than Nie Wei in the program, and that was naturally the advertising director Steve.

Speaking of this guy, he was also unlucky. After Representative Li and the advertising company reported the situation that day, the company had already punished Steve. Not only did they fine him, but they also prepared to put him on ice for a period of time to let him calm down.

But after the show is broadcast, this refrigeration will become freezing.

Steve has become the most hated director in the eyes of netizens. In addition, his foreign identity has won the unanimous disgust of domestic netizens. In the words of one netizen, it was the Qing Dynasty at that time? The Qing Dynasty had died long ago.

In fact, this is really a bit unfair to Steve. He is not throwing a tantrum because of his foreign identity, but because he has a bad temper. Not only in China, but also abroad. He has an indiscriminate bad temper.

It’s just that no one will speak for him. Even his team has no one to stand up. It can be seen how unpopular this guy is on weekdays.

Anyway, Steve’s reputation as a "big director" in China is stinking. It’s so stinking that dogs will avoid him when they see him. There are no commercials to shoot. Which company dares to use him? When the curious netizens check, they will find that it was shot by the stinking Steve. It will be another unprovoked disaster.

So even though Steve shot great commercials, he still inevitably lost his job and returned to his homeland in disgrace. As for what he will do next, we don't know and we don't dare to ask.

Nie Wei and Shu Chang are ready to return to Kyoto. They originally planned to take a half-year vacation in Nanhai, but Shu Chang couldn't stand it after one month. In her words, she felt too hot.

It is indeed hot in Nanhai in June, with an average temperature of more than 30 degrees. However, the temperature in Kyoto is not low at this time. It is only about 3 or 4 degrees lower than that in Nanhai. However, Kyoto is hot and humid, while Nanhai can enjoy the sea breeze. It is hard to say which is more comfortable.

The hot weather is just an excuse for Shu Chang. Nie Wei knows that the girl is homesick.

Nie Wei once asked Shu Chang about her birth time out of curiosity, because this woman is obviously a Sagittarius, who should be unrestrained, enthusiastic, bold, fearless, curious, and adventurous. However, these characteristics are not obvious in Shu Chang. On the contrary, she is more homesick than Nie Wei, a Pisces who is a homebody.

So Nie Wei suspects that Shu Chang's moon sign is probably Cancer or something like that.

It's just that Shu Chang herself doesn't know when she was born. Her mother died when she was very young. Shu Chang won't ask about her father, so this has become a mystery.

Of course, Nie Wei only asked that question. In fact, she likes Shu Chang's home-loving nature. If this woman really travels around the world for adventure, Nie Wei will always worry about her.

So, it's really unlikely that people can be together without having something in common.

Since Shu Chang has expressed that she doesn't want to stay, Nie Wei will naturally not force it. Anyway, he and Zhai are the same in any city. It's just that the air in Kyoto has not been very good recently. Every year, they say that it will be managed, but every year at this time, it will be out of control.

Other cities have pollution of one or two hundred, which is incredible. Kyoto has 500 every day during this period. This is not to say that Kyoto's air quality is very stable, but that the highest rating standard is 500...

Zhou Aiguo and Su Qing have not returned to China yet. Their current coordinates are in Italy, a small town called Tuscany, saying that they are going to enjoy a pastoral life for a while.

During this period, Nie Wei's manor received a lot of gifts sent back to China by the old couple. They were basically local specialties, with all kinds of things, but most of them were handicrafts and food.

Nie Wei sorted them out, and found an empty room to put the handicrafts in. As for the food, Nie Wei and Shu Chang kept some of the ones they liked, and the rest were distributed to friends.

Of course, returning to Kyoto also means that there is no time to rest. The first one is Wang Zhonglei. When he heard that Nie Wei was back, he immediately dragged him to the company, under the pretext of watching the new group rehearsal.

When Nie Wei received the call, he was really full of questions. How long has he not asked about the company's idol group?

Of course, Zhou Duoduo is an exception, but this girl has only been an idol for the past two years. When HELLO GIRLS disbands, Zhou Duoduo will also face the problem of transformation. After all, if she doesn't transform, she will be 30 years old. At that time, if she becomes an idol again, let alone whether there is a market, she will definitely be used as black material by some young fans in the future.

Don't you see how badly a certain Tang was blackened? It's because she is old and still plays in idol dramas.

In fact, this is not a big deal. Although she is old, she looks really young. There is nothing inharmonious about acting in idol dramas. If a certain actress is still acting as a girl at the age of 60, it would be really scary.

Nie Wei also understands why female stars in the 1980s and 1990s are always reluctant to say their age. This thing really cannot be revealed. Revealing it is asking for trouble. If a certain Tang does not say how old she is, who can find fault with her girlish appearance?

Sometimes Nie Wei also feels that fans are really harsh on actresses. In fact, the male lead of that idol drama is nine years older than the female lead, but no fans scold the male lead for pretending to be young.

For example, now the information of celebrities can be found on the Internet. These basic information is no different from completely transparent. After all, netizens with great powers can even get the front photo of the celebrity ID card.

So Nie Wei would never let Zhou Duoduo be an idol over 30 years old.

As for whether to be a professional singer or switch to acting, it all depends on Zhou Duoduo herself. Nie Wei will let her choose. Anyway, she has no shortage of resources and Zhou Duoduo is ambitious enough. As long as nothing unexpected happens, she will definitely be a first-line star.

Nie Wei came to Huayi again after a month.

He went to the artist management department first and took a look at the posters on the wall. He also felt that things have changed.

Take the idol group as an example. Only Jing Boran and Li Yifeng stayed in the company from the original F4. As for the first generation of the boy group SJ launched by the company, all the members left the company. Of course, some left first and some left later. It would be a big deal if they all fled together.

However, the fate of this group of people has changed a lot from the original time and space.

In the original time and space, except for Fu Xinbo who barely became popular again because of a fairy tale drama and a good wife, all the others were completely obscure.

But in this time and space, this group of people have developed very well. For example, Fu Xinbo, who was originally popular in the group, left the company and established his own studio. Now he is considered a quasi-first-line level in the entertainment industry. He is definitely the male lead in TV shows and occasionally gets some movie offers. Unfortunately, his acting skills are not good enough and he can't get a significant role.

The remaining artists, Pubajia, Zhang Dianfei, and Zhang Chao, have also performed well. At least they are stable in the second line, have TV works every year, and often appear in some popular variety shows, with a high exposure.

Of course, there are also some hopeless people. I won’t mention who they are, but they can occasionally appear on variety shows by relying on the popularity of the group, and at least they are constantly exposed.

As the first generation of Chinese boy band in the 21st century, SJ has really filled the gap of idols of an era. It is difficult for this group of people to get by, just like the original Taiwan F4. Even the most unpopular one will still be invited to mainland variety shows. Just selling feelings can sell for a lifetime.

There is also a very interesting thing here. Although all the members of SJ have left, the company has announced to the public that SJ will not disband, and all the members have also tacitly agreed to this matter, and have said that they will not disband even if they leave the company, because everyone knows what their foundation is.

So even if this group of people may never get together in the future, they will not disband if they don’t disband, and they will not disband if they are stubborn.

When Wang Zhonglei said this to Nie Wei with great pride, Nie Wei thought of some Korean entertainment groups. They were really stubborn. They changed all the members, but they could still use the group name. This is called using the sentiment to the extreme.

The female group is better, mainly because they are still within the contract period. If they want to change jobs, they have to consider the issue of liquidated damages. However, Huayi is not like a certain entertainment company that really wants to squeeze the artists to the last drop of blood. Basically, all resources are taken care of. Of course, those with popularity will definitely have more resources, and those without popularity will be worse.

There is a reason for this, just like the selection of fixed hosts for programs like "Running Man". Can you get on without some popularity? So sometimes it is not the company's partiality, but the market's choice.

Artists in the entertainment industry are like this. Those who are flooded will die, and those who are not will die. When they become popular, they really feel that the world is changing.

Nie Wei stood in the rehearsal room and watched the new group Wang Zhonglei mentioned for a while. He didn't think much of it. Most of the girls were about 12 or 13 years old. Huayi's age for training trainees is gradually approaching that of South Korea and Japan. Starting from childhood is not only about the sense of identity with the company, but also about discovering personal characteristics and developing them earlier.

Nie Wei didn't have any impression of any of these girls in his mind, so he didn't have much interest.

Wang Zhonglei didn't seem to care. He didn't even ask Nie Wei to go in and lecture the group of girls. After watching a dance, he invited Nie Wei to sit in his office.

Nie Wei knew that the business had just come, and Wang Zhonglei couldn't be so idle as to invite him to the company just to watch the girl group rehearse.

Thanks to Fantasy Paradise for the generous reward.
