On the second day of the engagement ceremony, Tao Mu woke up with a splitting headache in his sunny bed. Tao Mu narrowed his eyes and subconsciously stretched his arm to the side - the other side of the bed was empty and still warm.
The sizzling sound of fried eggs and the aroma of hot milk came in from the crack of the door. Tao Mu took a deep breath, got up from the bed, took a shower, and then walked into the kitchen with the aroma of shower gel all over his body.
In the warm and bright sunshine, Li Xiaoheng, wearing home clothes and an apron, stood in front of the center island mixing fruit salad. Seeing Tao Mu coming in, she reached out and pinched a cherry tomato and put it to Tao Mu's lips. Tao Mu squinted his eyes and accepted Li Xiaoheng's feeding, and teased with a smile: "Is our President Li so virtuous?"
Li Xiaoheng chuckled when he heard this, leaned forward and kissed Tao Mu's cheek, and said with a smile: "Happy wedding."
Tao Mu was slightly stunned, then smiled and corrected: "It's happy engagement."
"It's all the same." Li Xiaoheng said, handing the freshly fried heart-shaped poached egg to his little fiancé, and went to the dining room with hot milk, sandwiches and fruit salad.
After breakfast, an assistant came to the door and brought over the gift money and a list of various gifts received at the engagement ceremony. Li Xiaoheng keenly noticed the names of Chen Chen, Yao Wenxiao, Yan Sheng and others on it. Tao Mu's engagement ceremony did not invite these people, but they still mailed gifts to the wedding site on the wedding day. The staff responsible for signing for the gifts couldn't figure out Tao Mu's relationship with these people, so they accepted the gifts in a daze. When I was sorting out the gift list afterwards, I just wrote my name on it.
Tao Mu was silent for a moment. They are people I have been entangled with for several lifetimes. I once had such a strong desire to let go, but now when I see their names again, I don’t feel any emotion at all.
Too lazy to waste!
Seeing that Tao Mu showed little interest, Li Xiaoheng stopped talking about it. After breakfast, the two returned to the company to hand over their work.
After the engagement ceremony, Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng both took a long vacation to prepare for their honeymoon. Since finishing the film "Soldier King: The Sword Unsheathed", Tao Mu has not taken on any new scripts. Feixun.com and several other companies were also fully entrusted to Xiao Qi's father to manage. Various online and offline recruitment publicity activities have been prepared in advance to coincide with the launch of the TV series "Soldier King". We just need to implement them step by step. Therefore, Tao Mu's schedule was easily arranged. In comparison, it is more difficult for Li Xiaoheng to adjust his schedule. After all, the nature of Xiaoheng Capital is quite different from that of Feixun.com. The financial market is changing rapidly. As the company's most authoritative chief trader, Li Xiaoheng must always be in charge of the overall situation.
Fortunately, Li Xiaoheng's work relies heavily on the Internet, and there are not many restrictions on the workspace. Therefore, even if Li Xiaoheng and Tao Mu planned a three-month global trip, as long as Li Xiaoheng had a laptop in hand, he could try his best to achieve both work and honeymoon. Besides, Xiaoheng Capital’s other analysts and traders are also top high-end elites in the world. If everyone cooperates with each other, they will be able to understand the boss who is destined to be alone and has finally decided on his lifelong event.
In fact, compared to traveling abroad, Tao Mu is more interested in the famous mountains and rivers in China. However, due to Tao Mu's high popularity in China, it would easily cause congestion once he appeared at tourist attractions, so he had no choice but to go abroad.
The first stop of Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng's honeymoon trip was Bali. Then we traveled to major honeymoon destinations such as the Maldives and the Aegean Sea, and finally went to Antarctica to see penguins.
During this period, the ratings of "Soldier King" soared from 10% at the beginning of the broadcast to 25%, and finally ended successfully with the finale breaking the ratings record of 25.7%. Along with the broadcast of "Soldier King", Feixun.com and the military also conducted several popular science activities to promote conscription. Because the TV series was so popular, many netizens paid attention to the routine training and tasks of special forces. Feixun.com also joined hands with the military to set up a special forces individual combat program, also called "Soldier King". It allows netizens who are interested in the military to more intuitively see the performance of Chinese special forces in daily training.
Netizens were attracted by "Soldier King" and they already had great enthusiasm and curiosity about real military life. Every night after watching the drama, I can't wait to go to the forum to discuss the plot, the outstanding characters in the TV series, whether the shooting of the soldier training and weapon props in the play is realistic, and even argue about who is the most powerful soldier and the most popular one in the play. Even in other forums, posts with keywords related to "Soldier King" and several main characters in the play can often become thousands of stories high overnight.
Now that Feixun.com has joined hands with the military to promote the TV series, these young people who are yearning for military life after watching the TV series have signed up to join the army without hesitation. There has been a wave of enthusiasm for joining the army across the country, especially among college students, with the proportion of them increasing by 30% year-on-year compared to previous years. The immediate propaganda effect also made the military smile from ear to ear.
As the male lead of "Soldier King", Tao Mu was busy on his honeymoon during the few months when the TV series was broadcast. But in fact, the promotion of the TV series has not been neglected. Usually when the two of them returned to the hotel and Li Xiaoheng was busy watching the market in the study, Tao Mu would start a live broadcast and record a VCR to help the military publicize this year's conscription policy and the preferential policies for college students to join the army. Occasionally, he would also guest-star as a travel and food anchor, introducing the scenery and customs of various places to netizens sitting in front of their computers.
Every time this part comes, the quiet but sultry Li Xiaoheng will put down the work at hand, and walk around the room with various excuses - such as pouring coffee, cutting a fruit plate, getting something, or Tao Mu, acting as a background board for Tao Mu's live broadcast. The cute netizens were screaming and leaving various messages and rewards on the barrage, hoping that Mr. Li would say something as well.
"Do you want to say a few words to everyone?" Tao Mu turned his head and looked at Li Xiaoheng. The two were on a cruise ship traveling to Antarctica. It was freezing cold outside, so Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng stayed in the room, doing nothing but working and live streaming.
"What?" Li Xiaoheng, who was staring at the computer, raised his eyebrows slightly, walked behind Tao Mu, bent down and greeted the camera. I saw all kinds of rewards and gifts flying out on the screen. After a brief pause, he suddenly announced the name and number of an international futures contract: "This futures contract has hit bottom, but it should have a good upside in the future. Those who are interested can consider buying it. It's a bonus for the live broadcast."
The originally dense barrage of comments suddenly stopped. A few seconds later, with a bang, the barrage that had been stagnant appeared densely on the screen, firmly blocking the faces of Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng.
"Online guidance from the financial master!"
"Boss Li is so awesome! Boss Li is so awesome!"
"Mr. Li, are you still in need of a leg pendant? One that has been to college and is made of ceramics!"
Some netizens with quick hands have already gone to Feixun.com to shout out their love. So the netizens who did not watch Tao Mu's live broadcast were stunned to find that in less than half an hour, a Feixun named "Sexy God Online Operation" quickly topped the hot search. Netizens who didn't know the truth but loved to watch the show immediately clicked in to read the cause and effect. Then, some netizens who love to trade stocks and futures tentatively bought a certain international futures based on the principle of believing in authority.
——Just a few years after the global financial crisis in 2008, many financial products and commodity transactions were affected by the crisis and continued to be in a depressed state. Xiaoheng Capital got started by relying on the economic crisis to make precise short selling on a global scale. As the founder and chief trader of Xiaoheng Capital, Li Xiaoheng has been keeping a close eye on the international market for three years. With the help of memories from several lifetimes, Li Xiaoheng has been successful in his operations in the international and domestic financial markets in recent times. He is like the God of Wealth who can make clouds and rain with a wave of his hand in the financial market.
Now that Li Xiaoheng recommends futures to everyone, in the eyes of insiders it is like the God of Wealth spending money. As a result, waves of retail investors and small financial institutions, and even some large financial institutions, rushed into the futures market without saying a word and continued to go long, and the Chinese retail investors also invisibly influenced investors in other countries. So under the butterfly effect, a futures contract that according to Li Xiaoheng's analysis would take several days to show an upward trend actually rose ahead of time.
Seeing this, everyone was further convinced of Li Xiaoheng's authority as a professional. Even financial media from various countries reported the news. Frequently topping the headlines of various countries. The Taoli couple, who are on their honeymoon in Antarctica, have once again made headlines by saying "Although our buddies are no longer in society, their legends are still circulating in the world."
Because of Li Xiaoheng's role model, in the next two years, there was not only a wave of enthusiasm for joining the army in China, but also a wave of enthusiasm for college entrance examination candidates to apply for international finance. This will directly lead to the fact that in the next few years, a considerable number of finance students at home and abroad will choose Xiaoheng Capital as their ideal job offer. As a result, Xiaoheng Capital, which has only been established for a few years, has core competitiveness in attracting talent that is comparable to that of many old financial institutions on Wall Street in the future. As a result, many large companies with sufficient funds also continue to find Xiaoheng Capital to open accounts and are willing to entrust their idle funds to Xiaoheng Capital for management.
This unintentional achievement was so surprising and shocking. This led to many colleagues complaining in front of Li Xiaoheng and his wife - where was the honeymoon they promised to take? Can't you two just concentrate on showing your love for each other? Why do you have to work and have a honeymoon at the same time? Showing affection while competing with everyone else for business? Because of the global honeymoon, I even had no normal working hours. As a result, other colleagues had to sacrifice their rest time to work overtime and keep an eye on Tao Mu's live broadcast, so as to prevent Li Xiaoheng from releasing some financial reports on a whim during the live broadcast of showing affection and affecting the entire market!
However, no matter how their peers in the industry complained, Li Xiaoheng and Tao Mu were still very satisfied with the efficiency of their three-month work honeymoon. This was also the first time that Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng had been so indulgent, intimate, and stuck together for such a long time since they had been together for so long.
Three months later, Tao Mu and Li Xiaoheng ended their honeymoon and returned to Yanjing, appearing in front of the public again.
Although he has disappeared in reality for more than three months, Mr. and Mrs. Taoli, who have a strong presence online, once again felt the increasingly popular airport pick-up scene. Although Tao Mu himself didn't know why his fans kept coming over even though they knew he never accepted fans to pick him up at the airport. But this time, Tao Mu also took the VIP notice.
The ceramics who had been prepared were not disappointed at all. They came and went as per usual practice. And it is in good order. When she got home, she did not forget to post the airport photos without the protagonist on the Internet, and she was very happy to entertain herself. They say that "it has nothing to do with me picking you up at the airport" and "I just think that other stars have fans picking them up when they get off the plane, and we can't let our idols lose face, otherwise it will make us look unprofessional."
This reason is really——
"Okay!" Tao Muxin said that he was a maverick and was praised by the media and many people in the industry as the most idle actor. Now his fans are also following suit. It turns out that the saying "Fans follow the master" does make some sense.
Three months of vacation is not long, but for someone like Tao Mu who has a lot of work to do, the accumulated work is enough to keep him busy.
The post-production of "King of Soldier: Blade Out of the Sheath" has been completed. Riding on the popularity of the TV series "Soldier King" and the wave of joining the army, the movie was successfully scheduled for the National Day period. After returning to Beijing, Tao Mu immediately devoted himself to the publicity work of the movie "Soldier King: The Sword Unsheathed" after it was scheduled.
Because it was the first movie he starred in, and it was jointly prepared with Beijing Film Academy and the military. The most important thing is that the cost of making this movie is too high. Tao Mu still cares a lot about the box office and reputation after the movie is released. Therefore, after returning to China, we immediately finalized the publicity policy of "both online and offline publicity" and "publicity on TV, the Internet and on the ground without any mistakes". He personally took the creative team to various places to participate in variety shows and publicity and promotion, and finalized a series of National Day performances with the military. He frequently appeared on television and in major media reports, and finally did his job as an actor well.
Amid Tao Mu and the film's main creative staff's vigorous publicity campaign, the eagerly awaited fans finally waited for the premiere of "Soldier King: The Sword Unsheathed".
