Judging from her expression just now, she still wanted her grandmother to stand up for her.
That's a clever plan!
"Ah Jie, pass on the message to all the servants in the Lu family."
"Do everything you can to stop Li Anran from telling her grandmother what happened today."
"Once I discover who has been slacking off, no employer will hire them. I mean what I say."
He used to be able to ignore the fact that Li Anran was close to his grandmother.
That's because Li Anran urgently needs her grandmother's help and won't do anything to harm her for the time being.
But things are different now; it's clear that Li Anran has a much stronger backer.
After spending this time together, he has come to see this woman more clearly.
She is willing to give up everything for her own benefit.
"yes."
Ah Jie didn't dare to delay for a moment and immediately went down to deliver the message.
Lu Shen leaned against the windowsill, gazing into the distance through the boundless night, murmuring a name.
"Ruoxi".
Jian Ruoxi woke up with a start. In her daze, she felt as if she were still three years ago, and every morning she could hear that man calling her name gently.
At that time, Lu Shen really made it easy for her to have a misconception.
He could only see her.
"I can't keep thinking about it, or it will interfere with my work."
Ran Jie wouldn't let her have a single day of free time, and the message that just popped up on her phone proved that.
Come to the company at 9:00 AM; there's something important to discuss.
As for what exactly happened, Ran Jie did not elaborate in the message.
"I don't think it'll be an easy task; we'll have to discuss it in person."
She brought Ali with her when she went to Huarui this time.
"Come with me and listen to what Ran Jie has to say. It will help you get familiar with the job quickly."
Ali thought so too.
Last night she gave Li Anran quite a shock, and she was afraid that Li Anran would impulsively point the finger at Jian Ruoxi.
It would be better if she stayed close to him for the next few days.
In the office, Ran Jie felt a little uncomfortable with the addition of Ali.
Another member of the Lu family. Has he stirred up trouble within the Lu family?
Why are all sorts of people coming to Huarui?
"Ran Jie, what exactly do you want to say by calling me here? Just say what you have to say, and stop staring at my assistant."
If she hadn't known Ran Jie's character, she would have suspected that he had ulterior motives towards Ali based on his blatant staring just now.
"Jian Ruoxi, do you have any conscience? Who's been working so hard for you these past two days?"
"Not only did you not show any gratitude, but you also started talking about me because of a newly appointed assistant?"
So all my good intentions have been wasted?
He had already planned out future development for Jian Ruoxi, but seeing how protective she was of that inexperienced assistant, he suddenly didn't want to say anything more.
In the end, Ali couldn't stand it anymore and took the initiative to step forward and persuade them.
“Mr. Ran, I have only been in office for two days and have not yet achieved any results. You don’t need to compare yourself with me.”
"I understand that assistants and agents are inherently different in importance."
Ali's words left Ran Jie speechless.
Seriously, why is he jealous of a mere assistant?
Ran Jie felt regretful when he thought about his reaction.
How is this any different from the power struggles depicted in TV dramas?
Jian Ruoxi looked at Ali with satisfaction. "Well said, Ali. Keep it up. You'll become more and more like me in the future."
"Yes, Miss Jane, Ali understands."
Ran Jie was too embarrassed to continue watching the two shamelessly flatter each other, so he deliberately coughed twice.
"Alright, let's get down to business."
Ran Jie opened the slideshow and projected it onto the screen in front of him.
"Ruoxi, what can you tell from this data?"
This is what he organized while helping Jian Ruoxi with her work over the past two days.
It was a line graph showing the number of times her name was shared.
"Isn't it a good thing that the number of reposts is steadily increasing?"
She's optimistic about the data; at least it hasn't dropped, has it?
She thinks it's pretty good that she can maintain this level of performance after being away from the entertainment industry for three years.
When Ran Jie heard her answer, he frowned slightly and showed a displeased expression.
He pointed out a few prominent points to Jian Ruoxi.
"Overall it's a good thing, but look here, this is the data from the first night of the live broadcast."
"This is the data from your and Ziyu's first entertainment variety show."
"And this too, the statistics were just compiled after the first episode of 'Mercedes Life' aired."
“They could have been more than just this data.”
He couldn't find any mistakes in either Huarui's early publicity or Jian Ruoxi's performance.
The data wasn't perfect, and we lost in the later stages.
"Jian Ruoxi, do you know what you lack most right now?"
"They're fans."
Ali was a little confused. "Compared to other artists of the same period, Ms. Jian's fan base is growing at a relatively fast pace."
She had done her research beforehand, so she knew quite well.
Ran Jie was clearly surprised by Ali's interruption.
Because he knew that what Ali said was true.
"Have you compared the relationship between the increase in the number of followers and the number of reposted posts?"
"This?" She really hadn't thought about it.
Jian Ruoxi had a general idea of what Ran Jie wanted to say.
"You mean that if you gain a lot of new fans, but they're not loyal, it's practically the same as not gaining any at all, right?"
Ran Jie snapped his fingers with amusement.
"You've finally figured it out."
“Jian Ruoxi, right now, your efforts to protect your fans are far from enough, and that’s the biggest problem you’re facing.”
He's an agent, and he can use various packaging techniques to attract casual viewers to become interested in the artist.
This is him creating opportunities for artists.
Whether casual viewers will stay and become loyal fans ultimately depends on the artist themselves.
Therefore, he has always had his own set of rules when signing artists, even if the artist may not be outstanding at the beginning.
But one particular quality of his shines brightly enough, and the more precious it is, the further his career can go.
He believed that Jian Ruoxi possessed this quality, but she herself had not yet realized it.
"So what should I do now?"
She admitted that Ran Jie was right; she and Ali had made the same mistake: focusing too much on one-sided data.
Instead, they overlooked the significance behind these numbers.
"Ruoxi, I can only help you point out exactly where the problem is and what needs to be corrected."
"But I can't prescribe the answer for you, otherwise you'd be no different from mass-produced artists."
"You don't want to become like that either."
Yes, she didn't want to.
One of her reasons for returning to the entertainment industry was to be herself again.
If she abandons her original self on the road to stardom, then everything she has done will be in vain.
