Yin Chengjue’s past life was a complete joke.
The star he personally groomed not only betrayed him but twisted the knife when his company was on the brink of collapse.
Reborn, he vowed ...
Before Rong Yu could reply, Deng Yu called, his voice full of complaints.
Deng Yu: "I'm really fed up with that stupid, idiotic younger brother. He's determined to enter the entertainment industry. Now, he's set his sights on a role in a drama and is begging me to help him get it."
Rong Yu glanced at Sally, who was still driving, and tried to use vague language to say, "So, your brother went to try it today too?"
Deng Yu: "What are you auditioning for? An audition? Why would you need that? Is it because my family doesn't have enough money?"
Rong Yu: "Oh, so he didn't even try. I don't mean to steal it. It's just that he didn't care and didn't cherish the opportunity."
Deng Yu: "So you're not planning to give up this role?"
Rong Yu: "What? You want to steal it? Speaking of which, it's been a while since I've practiced my skills. If you're willing, I don't mind granting your wish."
Deng Yu: "Are you threatening me? You actually threatened me? Have you forgotten that we promised to be each other's angels?"
Just then, Sally parked her car to go out and buy something, so Rong Yu stopped being careful and said directly, "First of all, I think I need to clarify that there has only ever been one angel in my heart, and that one is definitely not you. Secondly, calling it a threat is a bit of an exaggeration. Consider it a reminder. After all, to this day, no one has ever managed to get away unscathed after taking something from me. No one has been able to break this rule yet, and even if someone does, it won't be you."
Deng Yu: "...I feel like my heart has been stabbed several times."
Rong Yu: "This only shows that your mental resilience is getting weaker and weaker. It is necessary to strengthen your training. Of course, since you are not short of money, Mr. Deng, why not give me the money for the extra training? I can absolutely guarantee that I can improve your mental resilience to a higher level in just one day."
Deng Yu: "..." I shouldn't have made that call! I deserve to suffer!
"Murong Yu, are you short of money? You're even doing this weird side job. Did your parents really freeze all your cards after you ran away from home?" Deng Yu asked curiously.
Rong Yu: "No, it's just that I need to support my family right now, so I'll earn as much as I can."
Deng Yu: "...I couldn't help but laugh, and I laughed so loudly. You think you can support a family? You should be thanking God you didn't burn the kitchen!"
Rong Yu: "You don't necessarily have to work in the kitchen to make a living. Someone like you would never understand the joy of being provided with food, drink, lodging, clothing, and a warm bed."
Deng Yu was speechless for a second before saying, "They've taken care of everything for you, what are you going to do? Be a pretty but useless person?"
Rong Yu: "I handed over my salary card."
Deng Yu: "..."
Rong Yu: "I'm new to the industry and don't earn much. I almost injured another celebrity while on a lifestyle variety show, so that part of my salary went to pay off a debt. So for now, I'm handing over the cards I brought from home. But it's okay, I'll earn more in the future!"
Deng Yu was so angry at Rong Yu's behavior that he almost laughed: "...My young master! Do you really think that the cards you brought from home have small sums of money? Aren't you afraid that someone will run away with the money? You'll end up losing everything and have nowhere to cry!"
Rong Yu glanced out the window and saw that Sally had already bought her things and was waiting for the traffic light across the street. The countdown to the red light was about to end, and Sally would be able to cross the street soon.
Rong Yu felt the conversation should end soon, otherwise Sally might start to doubt herself after hearing some of what she said. So she said, "Instead of worrying about me here, why don't you calculate how much you're going to spend on your brother? Also, single people can't understand the sense of belonging that married people have. I won't argue with you. Bye."
Hey! You!
Rong Yu decisively hung up the call. Just then, Sally opened the door and got into the car. Seeing that Rong Yu had put away her phone, she smiled and said, "You're done talking? Here, I brought you a cup of corn juice, it's warm."
"Thank you, Sister Sally." Rong Yu's gaze fell on the bags in Sally's hands, and she asked curiously, "Sister Sally, what did you buy?"
Sally: "I ordered the latest dress for you from this shop before, and it just finished today. I came over to pick it up and you can try it on to see if it fits."
"Formal dress?"
Sally: "Yes, next Friday is the Lingxiao Gala, where they will select the best film of the year, best actor, best actress, best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best screenwriter, and so on. The official Lingxiao Weibo account will send out the nomination invitations this weekend."
"So, the invitation hasn't even been sent out yet, and there's no guarantee I'll be invited. Why are we making preparations so early?" Rong Yu asked, puzzled.
“I was saying that the invitation letter for the shortlist is issued by the official organization, but for the regular invitation letter, Huansheng will definitely get a spot. The top and second-tier employees in the company will definitely get one. As for you, I’ll save one for you. Do you think I’ve been working for nothing all these years?” Sally covered her mouth and smiled. “Besides, even if I don’t get one, President Yin will definitely not let you down.”
"Then... will President Yin go?" Rong Yu asked.
“It’s either him or Vice President Shang. One of them has to go. They’re representing Huansheng, and they need to give the organizers face. We’re all in the same circle, we see each other all the time, and we often collaborate,” Sally said.
As they were talking, Sally had already taken Rong Yu back to the company.
Meanwhile, Yin Chengjue was also preparing to create a new website.
The technical personnel have been recruited quickly, after all, Yin Chengjue has provided enough funding, and as long as they do their jobs well, Yin Chengjue will certainly not treat them unfairly.
A website is just a platform; authors and readers are the driving force behind the operation of an original website. Therefore, it is necessary to create a website that can accommodate a large number of people online at the same time. Websites that crash or get bugs easily discourage readers if they do not have excellent authors signed on, resulting in a loss of reader traffic. As readers leave, authors will gradually lose motivation and eventually choose to leave as well. Then, the remaining readers will follow the authors, creating a vicious cycle.
Therefore, a solid foundation must be laid for the website to ensure its smooth and normal operation in the future.
To this end, Yin Chengjue hired several dedicated testers to conduct multiple tests on the website. Once a bug was found, it was immediately fixed. He even prepared several contingency plans so that if the website was attacked by hackers, it would immediately activate emergency mode to prioritize the preservation and protection of the works published online by authors and the funds in each registered account.
All fund flows in all accounts will be automatically saved in three copies and stored in three backup archives to prevent the loss of website financial data and irreparable damage in the event of a malicious hacker attack.
These are clearly not things that can be accomplished in a day or two.
After the website is built, you will need to sign contracts with an in-service editor, a resident editor, and an online editor, also known as a web editor.
Each original content section is managed by an editor-in-chief, who oversees five editors, who in turn manage resident editors, and the resident editors manage web editors.
In fact, the nature of a stationed editor is the same as that of a web editor. They don't need to come to the company to get off work on time. They just need to sign a contract with the company and then act in accordance with the rules and regulations in the contract.
The only difference is that the contract level of a station editor is higher than that of a web editor, and the corresponding tasks and commissions are also higher. If a web editor wants to be promoted, they need to work hard to meet the requirements of the website and be promoted to a station editor.
So, what are the requirements for editorial promotion?
It's actually quite simple. First, the editor's performance is linked to the authors they are responsible for signing. The web editor is responsible for casting a wide net to find authors, and if an author meets the website's signing requirements, the web editor can receive a bonus. The bonus level increases according to the level of the author's signed contract.
For example, if an online editor can find an author and sign a regular contract, they can get a bonus of 100 RMB; a C-level contract, they can get a bonus of 200 RMB; a B-level contract, they can get a bonus of 400 RMB; and an A-level contract, they can get a bonus of 600 RMB.
After the contract is signed, it depends on the author's monthly income. The web editor can get 5% of the monthly income of the signed author. Of course, this is only for one author. If there are many signed authors or the quality of the signed authors is high, this will accumulate into a considerable amount.
The income of resident editors consists of two parts: one part is the authors they sign, and the other part is the online editors under their management, which is also a commission system.
The editor's income also consists of two parts: one part is the authors they sign, and the other part is the resident editors under their management.
The editors-in-chief responsible for each section do not need to sign contracts with authors, because their task is to layout and recommend various works that are regularly updated on the website, arrange to draw promotional covers for works that do not have promotional covers, and also to organize and summarize various contracts and data information under the hierarchical management and report them to the company, and then promptly convey various announcements and messages from the company.
Especially in the initial stage of website establishment and development, various new problems are bound to emerge one after another. These cannot be completely avoided by anticipating and preventing them in advance. If other editors encounter problems, they need to report them to the company through the editor-in-chief in a timely manner so that they can be dealt with promptly.
If an editor-in-chief has the spare time and energy to find and sign authors after completing these required tasks, the company will not regulate it.
"Mr. Yin, these are the latest contracts we received. They need your stamp." A new assistant surnamed Huang placed a stack of paper contracts on Yin Chengjue's desk.
"Hmm." Yin Chengjue rubbed his temples, glanced at the clock, and said, "There are five minutes left until it's time to leave work. There's been a lot going on at the company lately, and we can't finish even if we work overtime. Let's all go home, recharge, and fight again tomorrow."
"Yes, Mr. Yin, I'll go and tell them right away."
