018: Stop wasting time on Gu Jun

Half an hour later, Gu Jun received the key from Xu Yao, who had asked a local runner to deliver it.

Gu Jun had already kicked Jiang Zhiyan out of the office.

When he opened the drawer, two identical keys seemed to be mocking Gu Jun: You and your wife don’t seem to know each other very well.

Bang.

Gu Jun closed the drawer.

What's so funny? They've only been married for a few days, it would be abnormal if they knew each other too well, right?

Gu Jun called Jiang Zhiyan back and said, "I'll go out to dinner with you tonight."

Jiang Zhiyan hesitated to speak, but Gu Jun told him to speak up. Jiang Zhiyan then said bluntly, "The quarrel between you and your wife is an internal conflict. Don't use Mingjia as a joke because of the quarrel. I have never supported extramarital affairs..."

Under Gu Jun's murderous gaze, Jiang Zhiyan's voice became smaller and smaller.

Gu Jun emphasized to Jiang Zhiyan: "We didn't quarrel, don't think too much!"

"oh!"

Jiang Zhiyan pretended to believe it.

The restaurant we ate at was booked by Jiang Mingjia. The food was of high standard and the environment was quiet.

Not only did Jiang Mingjia take the initiative to order food, he also arrived early.

Jiang Mingjia, 26 years old this year, is the apple of the Jiang family's eye. After returning from studying abroad, she met Gu Jun through her cousin Jiang Zhiyan. The first time she saw Gu Jun, Jiang Mingjia's heart began to beat fast.

Gu Jun has a very charming abstinence temperament.

He is handsome, intelligent, and has strong business talent. With Jiang Mingjia's network of contacts, she has only met a few men like him!

Jiang Mingjia finally met one, so of course he had to hold on to him.

"Gu Jun, it's really not easy to ask you out now."

Jiang Mingjia stood up to greet him, showing no mercy when betraying his cousin: "There is always work to be done at the company. Don't overwork yourself. You can arrange more work for my brother."

Jiang Zhiyan was not surprised at all.

Jiang Mingjia’s pursuit of Gu Jun is so passionate that once she sees Gu Jun, she can’t let go of anyone else!

Gu Jun had no intention of having an extramarital affair, and even with Jiang Mingjia offering his attention, he still frequently lost focus during dinner. He didn't know if Xu Yao had made it to the neighboring city, or if the hotel the brand had arranged was any good. Xu Yao had chosen her assistant so hastily, so was she reliable?

"Gu Jun, don't you like the food tonight?"

Jiang Mingjia noticed that Gu Jun was absent-minded.

Jiang Zhiyan just wanted to laugh. What does it have to do with the food? The important thing is that the person eating is not right.

"Mingjia, didn't you say you wanted to discuss cooperation with Gu Jun?"

Without waiting for Gu Jun to answer, Jiang Zhiyan took the initiative to give his sister a way out.

Jiang Mingjia also knew that Gu Jun didn't really care about the details of eating and drinking. He was just a pure workaholic. Jiang Mingjia catered to his interests and finally came up with a common topic that was close to Gu Jun's career.

"I want to sign a few internet celebrities and focus on Huahu's business in the future. Gu Jun, do you think it's okay?"

Jiang Mingjia asked Gu Jun with a smile.

Gu Jun glanced at Jiang Zhiyan, and Jiang Zhiyan made his position clear: "There are already so many MCN agencies, they don't need Mingjia. I don't know if she can do it well. But I have already told her that just because she is my sister Hua Hu, I can't give her anchor more traffic. Everything should be done according to the rules."

Huahu wasn't the first platform to enter the short video space, but since its entry, its meteoric rise has intimidated all its competitors. Similarly, Jiang Mingjia wasn't the first to approach Gu Jun about collaborating. Gu Jun's stance on such matters has always been unwavering: he doesn't favor any particular MCN organization, whether it's a company or an individual streamer. To succeed, they either have to pay for traffic or work tirelessly to create eye-catching content.

In fact, even if you spend money to buy traffic, you still cannot convert the purchased traffic if the content has no characteristics.

Gu Jun opened this loophole not only to make money from those institutions and anchors, but his main purpose was to stimulate them to maintain competition.

Jiang Mingjia leaned forward, looking at Gu Jun lovingly. "I'll definitely follow the rules, but there has to be a little bit of a tilt, right? Huahu's algorithm is so powerful, just a tiny bit of a tilt would be enough... Promoting a few popular internet celebrities would also be beneficial to Huahu, wouldn't it?"

To be honest, Jiang Mingjia doesn't care how much money he can make by signing a few internet celebrities.

No matter how powerful the MCN agency’s ability to make money is, it is nothing compared to Huahu.

Jiang Mingjia pursued the matter fruitlessly for a long time before finally coming up with this idea. Making money was secondary; creating an opportunity to interact with Gu Jun was the most important thing.

So Jiang Mingjia was not afraid of being rejected by Gu Jun, she was afraid that Gu Jun would always be so lukewarm.

All I can say is that Jiang Mingjia really doesn't understand Gu Jun at all.

Being looked at lovingly by Jiang Mingjia, Gu Jun felt only disgust and vigilance!

Business is business, and personal relationships are personal relationships. Gu Jun hates it most when people confuse the two. Jiang Mingjia asked Gu Jun to allocate a little bit of resources, but Gu Jun didn't think Jiang Mingjia's coquettishness was cute at all. He thought Jiang Mingjia's desire to set up an MCN agency might be a test for the Jiang family.

Why does Huahu need Jiang Mingjia’s help to promote some internet celebrities?

Huahu will never need the so-called "top streamers". If it tilts resources towards a very small number of "top streamers", the top streamers will have the illusion that they can threaten the platform in turn!

"Miss Jiang, rules are always rules. If I take the lead in breaking the rules, then everyone else can break the rules too, don't you think?"

Jiang Mingjia was hurt by Gu Jun's address.

"Gu Jun, we shouldn't be so unfamiliar with each other, right?"

Jiang Mingjia felt aggrieved, "I thought we were at least friends!"

"Mingjia!"

Jiang Zhiyan saw that the situation was not right and wanted to smooth things over, but Gu Jun raised his hand to interrupt: "If we are friends, don't talk about doing business. There are no friends when talking about business. So, in the end, whether to be Jiang Zhiyan's cousin or 'Miss Jiang', you have to think carefully."

Jiang Mingjia's chest heaved.

Gu Jun was like this every time, not giving her any room for imagination.

"Gu Jun, I don't know if you are really slow-witted or if you are afraid to open your heart. You already have a successful career, so one day you will have to consider your personal feelings. I may not be your type, but my family background and personal conditions are enough for you—"

Jiang Mingjia explained her ideas, and Gu Jun thought they made sense, but what did they have to do with him?

Gu Jun was distracted again.

Buzz.

Gu Jun's phone vibrated, he received a new text message: I have arrived at the hotel where I will be staying for the filming, have you received the key?

Before Gu Jun even noticed, his expression softened. He pulled out a chair and stood up to apologize, "Sorry, I have a call to return. Let's stop here for dinner tonight."

Watching Gu Jun walk out of the restaurant, Jiang Mingjia was so angry that she was incoherent. She complained to Jiang Zhiyan beside her: "...He knows that he sometimes acts very uncultured, right?!"

Even though Jiang Mingjia likes Gu Jun very much, she sometimes gets angry at him.

In Jiang Mingjia's circle, young gentlemen would never act like Gu Jun! Even Jiang Zhiyan, no matter how careless he was, would never embarrass a girl.

Jiang Zhiyan frowned, "You are quite uneducated for being so persistent."

Jiang Mingjia was so angry that she almost died. "Whose brother are you?"

Jiang Zhiyan solemnly reminded Jiang Mingjia: "Don't waste your time on Gu Jun. If he liked you, you two would have been together long ago."
