Chapter 529 The Little Elk Wants to Ride from Behind After
packing up the boxes, Yang Chaoyue opened the door and walked out of the room. The assistant who had been waiting in the living room outside the house for a long time hurried over to help her take the things.
"Has the car arrived?"
"Just arrived, waiting downstairs.
" "Okay, take the things down and go directly to the airport."
After instructing the assistant, she turned and shouted to the kitchen: "Mom, I'm leaving first."
A middle-aged woman who looked three points like Yang Chaoyue came out and said with concern: "Leaving now? Or eat first."
"No, we still have to catch a plane, anyway, we are not hungry."
Yang Chaoyue put on her coat and reminded: "Little sister is about to take the final exam, tell her that if she doesn't do well in the exam, don't ask me for New Year's money this year."
"Then she will be very upset."
"Just to let her know that life is not that simple."
After sending her daughter out, until she saw the elevator door closed, Mother Yang put down her hand and closed the door and went back to the house. Standing at the door and looking at the house that was countless times more luxurious than her hometown, she couldn't help but sigh.
Mother Yang didn't know that Meng Bai "lent" Yang Chaoyue this house, she just thought that her daughter bought it herself.
Although she didn't have much experience, she knew that such a house in Shanghu would definitely cost a lot. Although her daughter has become a star, it has only been two or three years, and it must be very difficult to come up with so much money.
More importantly, her daughter didn't live in this house by herself, but took her and her half-blood sister to live in it, and also helped her find a school in Shanghu to study.
Whenever she thought of this, she was happy and distressed.
Just like today, Mingming had just finished an event and stayed at home for only one night, and then she had to rush to the next schedule.
Mother Yang sighed in her heart, hoping that her daughter's work would not be too tiring this time!
...
Blue Island, Mid-Levels Villa District.
As the iron-black door slowly opened, a black commercial vehicle slowly drove into the garage next to the courtyard.
The car door opened, and Meng Bai, wearing a coat, got out of the car. He looked at the dark villa, smiled lightly, turned around and said to the car: "Lao Qi, go back and have a rest. You shouldn't need the car much tomorrow, so I'll give you a day off."
"Thank you, boss."
The steady middle-aged man smiled: "Then I'll leave first, Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas!"
Watching the business car leave, Meng Bai turned back to the front of the villa, held the handle and turned it gently, opening the heavy door.
The room was dark, and it seemed that no one was there. Meng Bai had a smile on his face, and he didn't do anything special. After changing his shoes, he walked in.
Before he could take a few steps, a red figure suddenly jumped out from behind the entrance, followed by a full-bodied "Ha!"
However, what surprised the "raider" was that Meng Bai was not frightened at all, but looked at him with interest.
"Boring, boss, you are not afraid."
Yang Chaoyue complained with a boring face.
"Next time you want to scare people, don't be so obvious. I knew you were here, but you didn't turn on any lights in the room. I can tell what you were going to do." Meng Bai spread his hands and said.
"Okay, I'll remember to turn on the lights next time."
After turning on the lights, the room suddenly became brightly lit. Meng Bai looked at the girl standing in front of him and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"With this outfit... are you planning to cosplay as a Christmas deer?"
"Hehe, it's Christmas Eve, there has to be some festive atmosphere, right?"
Yang Chaoyue, who was wearing a red dress and a bunny-like headdress on her head, raised her hand and put it in front of her chin, revealing a cool smile: "How is it, not bad, right?"
"Very good... I mean in all aspects."
Who can refuse a Christmas deer on Christmas Eve?
Thinking of this, Meng Bai had already walked in front of the "little elk", put his arms around the other's waist, and lowered his head to kiss it.
Although the "little elk" had experience, it was not an opponent after all. After a while, it hung on the other person breathlessly and let him do whatever he wanted.
Meng Bai half supported and half hugged the girl to the sofa in the living room, and then asked her to turn around and hold on.
As for the Christmas little elk, it must be ridden from behind.
——Although
Christmas has a big name, it actually doesn't have much influence in China.
There are no rituals and customs, and no extra day off. In addition to giving some scumbag men and women an excuse to open a room, it has no practical significance.
The same is true for the crew of "The Wandering Earth 2". Although there are many foreign extras, they still have to work.
However, Guo Fan was also ingenious. In addition to overtime pay, he also gave everyone an apple, saying that this is a traditional custom of "Christmas Eve", which shocked a group of foreigners.
In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Day. Meng Bai spent the last day of 2021 with Li Qin to make up for the "fault" of not being together on Christmas.
As for Boss Li, she went to attend Jiangsu Satellite TV's New Year's Eve concert, which saved Meng Bai's life again.
Entering 2022, the first news in the film and television industry came from the newly renamed "China Confucianism".
Confucianism officially issued a statement that Meng Bai, the company's largest shareholder, resigned as chairman and was replaced by another shareholder, Ke Liming.
Of course, this news was expected by everyone. Although the "Arc Light System" and the "Confucianism System" have close cooperation, they are each a system and there is no need to merge them together. Meng Bai's resignation is obviously also a statement of attitude.
This kind of executive change within the company is basically ignored by everyone except investors who speculate in stocks.
What really made the industry pay attention was that Confucianism immediately sent a message saying that its horizontal video platform will jointly establish a new "Pumpkin Short Drama" with Kuaishou, aiming at this new market.
You know, although short dramas have become increasingly popular in the past two years, they are still made by some small companies and teams, and they are basically still attached to several short video platforms. The traffic is large, but the ability to realize it is limited.
But now it is different. Ruyi is a real "regular army", and no one expected that they would be the first to try it.
But then, another message explained everyone's doubts.
The official Weibo of Arclight Film and Television stated that it has reached a cooperation with the new "Pumpkin Short Drama" and will test a series of high-quality short dramas in the next two years.
When I saw the name "Archlight", some of the original scolding in the circle that Ruyi "destroyed the long drama market" suddenly became much smaller.
It's not just that they are afraid of Arclight's name, but more importantly, they have done this once.
According to the current more mainstream "Years History Book" records, when the video website was just beginning to develop, Arclight's President Meng relied on a "Soul Ferry" to kill out of the TV drama market and opened up a new "online drama system".
In the past few years, the online drama market has become more and more mature and has gradually become the basic pillar of the film and television industry. Although it cannot be said that it is entirely due to Mr. Meng, he can indeed be called the "pioneer" of the entire market.
Now Arclight is going to open up the short drama market again, and it may be a new outlet for the next decade.
Thanks to Arclight's accurate vision over the years, many companies have begun to study short dramas. There are even rumors that ByteDance also has plans to create its own short drama platform.
As for the team that has already started to make short dramas, they are also overjoyed. After all, the emergence of "Pumpkin Short Drama" finally gave them a truly suitable platform. At the same time, the new traffic sharing system also gave them a stable way to realize.
For a time, "short drama" became the hottest topic in the entertainment industry. Even the Spring Festival, which is just around the corner, is not cared about by many people.
"Can short dramas really make money?"
Chen Sicheng asked curiously backstage at the premiere of "Detective Chinatown 3".
"Who can guarantee this? We are just trying."
Meng Bai did not hide it and said directly: "The platform and the production team should be fine, but whether the investors can make money is hard to say."
Compared with long dramas, short dramas are small in size and have a low entry threshold, which will inevitably lead to the influx of a large number of projects. Just like today's short videos, if you want to be seen, you have to spend money to buy volume.
The platform has advertisements and traffic at the same time, so it basically will not lose money; the production team is paid to work, so they will definitely make money.
Only investors who invest in short dramas are the only ones who need to worry about their own returns.
After all, every similar "hot spot" will attract a large number of outsiders who want to make money. What they have in common is that they are "stupid and rich." And in the end, they are often the ones who pay the bill.
