Chapter 205 What if Li Yang asks me to sleep with him?
The chips in the hands of the Cen family change every day.
Xiangnu received a phone call from an unknown person, who said that he could help a certain user secure the LOL live broadcast rights for May.
When Xiangnu asked the other party how much money he wanted, the other party only said that he wanted to talk to Li Yang.
Xiangnu understood it immediately.
She can't even see Li Yang now, let alone others.
Besides, Li Yang had told her not to worry about the live broadcast rights, and she would not go to Li Yang for something that had already been promised.
As a result, the two sides did not reach any conclusion.
In fact, Xiangnu really wants to secure the live broadcast rights for LOL after May, because this is the only popular game on Youku now.
The main reason is that this game is the only one on the entire Internet that has such overwhelming popularity. Compared with LOL, the other games, even though they are not unpopular, can only be described in two words: "too popular".
She didn't know what the situation was like in Beijing, and had been spending money to sign people in an orderly manner recently.
It seems that they know that Youku is quite generous in signing female anchors. Even if it is a new anchor, as long as she is good-looking and has some talent, she can sign a good contract.
Talent has no boundaries, of course, the best talent is definitely the ability to chat.
Generally speaking, it cannot be said that a beautiful woman who is good at chatting will definitely become a big anchor, but at least she will not care too much about a guaranteed contract of several thousand yuan per month.
Xiangnu was well aware that this was a considerable burden. He had signed contracts with hundreds of people. Even though most of the guaranteed monthly salaries were only 2,000 yuan, the monthly expenditure in this regard exceeded one million yuan.
In fact, it is much more than that.
Youku has several important expenditure points. The first one is the naming fee of 20 million yuan each year for the top LOL national rankings, which is to let those people change their names.
Even though many game anchors have changed jobs, this expenditure has not decreased. It is an initiative to attract game players.
Next is the bandwidth server of the live broadcast platform. The expenditure used to be only tens of millions, but now it has exceeded 100 million.
Previously, there was an expenditure on traffic, about 40 to 50 million yuan per year, but now that we are working on marginal news all day long, the expenditure in this area has dropped sharply, and it only takes more than 10 million yuan to support a small team.
Although this expenditure was small, there was another expenditure according to Li Yang's request.
That is to assign teams to the platform's female anchors. According to regional divisions, one team is sometimes responsible for twenty to thirty anchors, providing one-stop services from photography to clothing and makeup.
The team is expanding every day, with each team spending more than 150,000 yuan per month and more than 30 million yuan per year.
We are also recruiting video commentary and video editing.
Almost all of those video contents are placed on the host’s personal homepage, but few people actually watch them.
After all, unless you are a complete die-hard fan, you will go to read all the information about the anchor. Most of the audience just watch whoever is broadcasting live, and there is no point in watching anything else if there is no live broadcast.
All these miscellaneous things add up to nearly 50 million in expenses a year, but they don't work.
Li Yang had almost spent all the 360 million yuan from the last round of financing, and could only last until July at most.
Unless those lawsuits can be won, after all, the total amount of liquidated damages is close to one billion yuan. Even if one-third of it can be recovered, it will be enough for the platform to operate for more than a year.
…
Ruyi Hall's business has been getting worse since last year.
Being bullied once before was just a small reason. The biggest problem was that the cooking was not as amazing as before.
Liu Ruyi hasn't cooked for a long time. She only cooked once when she went to Li Yang's place before the New Year. After that, she asked other chefs to cook.
Even though she hired the chef at a high salary, the customers obviously didn't buy it. Over time, a vicious cycle emerged.
However, Liu Ruyi didn't care. She didn't open this store to make money, and she wouldn't make much money.
Today she dressed up unexpectedly, with exquisite makeup, a luxurious little flannel robe, and a beautiful face. Even if the food was average, she could still eat three big bowls of white rice while enjoying the beautiful view.
Cen Yeming was also shocked when he saw Liu Ruyi again after more than half a year.
Liu Ruyi now has a trace of unremovable sorrow between her brows, and her temperament has suddenly risen to another level.
In Cen Yeming's opinion, Liu Ruyi at this moment was extremely beautiful.
It seems...it's not a loss to marry her.
Although Liu Ruyi was beautiful before, her value was too low. In Cen Yeming's eyes, value is the most basic criterion for measuring a partner.
But now, the value of his wife has become infinitely low, while Liu Ruyi's value has been invisibly raised a lot. In contrast, he relaxed, and the more he looked at Liu Ruyi, the more beautiful she seemed.
After Liu Ruyi came in, he immediately walked forward, ready to hold Liu Ruyi's hand and express his friendship.
He believed that as long as he took the initiative a little, Liu Ruyi would not be able to resist.
However, this time, Liu Ruyi dodged and asked directly: "Why did you come to see me?"
Cen Yeming touched the air awkwardly and said with a smile: "I just miss you. For the past six months, I have been thinking about you all the time when I was outside."
For Liu Ruyi, it was already very rare for Cen Yeming to say such words.
If it were a few months ago, she would definitely be deeply involved in it. Since Cen Yeming cared so much about her, she would be willing to do anything.
But...what had he been doing earlier?
"Just tell me what you want from me. You are such a busy person, you don't need to waste your time on me."
Cen Yeming quickly explained: "There is nothing else, I just miss you. Ruyi, I have made up my mind this time. No matter what difficulties I encounter, I will marry you. If your family disagrees, then we will elope!"
Liu Ruyi looked at Cen Yeming. Although this guy was in his thirties, he was still the same as when they first met.
At that time, she was a little gangster girl and it was the first time she met the young masters in the Beijing circle.
Gentle and elegant, handsome.
Who doesn’t admire the strong?
In the entire Beijing circle, Cen Yeming is one of the best. He is young, promising and has outstanding temperament.
She is willing to be a dog for Cen Yeming.
elopement……
If Cen Yeming had said this a few months ago, she would have done whatever it took.
She has given Cen Yeming two chances.
The first time I said whether I would get married or not, I let my wife come and make a scene, which embarrassed her.
The second time I borrowed 300 million yuan, but he said he would not pay it back. The payment was due in September last year, and now it is almost March, which is half a year overdue.
She asked back, "Do I still dare to believe your promise? Do you know that in order to lend you 300 million, the entire Ruyi Pavilion is now operating on borrowed money?"
Cen Yeming quickly lowered his head and said, "Yes, yes, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have delayed the time. You can hit me and scold me, I promise not to talk back."
Liu Ruyi only felt that the world was changing too fast, so fast that she couldn't adapt.
Is it really exactly the same as Xiangnu said?
"Cen Yeming, I know you must have something to ask me. Return the three hundred million to me first, and I will help you. I can lose to you, but I must win this last time."
Cen Yeming said: "Ruyi, I'm really fine, I just want to see you and talk to you..."
"Now that we've met, don't forget to pay after you've eaten!"
After saying that, Liu Ruyi turned and walked outside.
In fact, it was very difficult for her to restrain herself. In Xiangnu's words, she was a love-brained person.
Xiangnu heard this from Li Yang.
If it were her, she would have leaned over when Cen Yeming said the second sentence.
However, after learning that Cen Yeming had arrived, she called Xiangnu.
Xiangnu only made one request to her, that is, don't give Cen Yeming any chance before he explains the matter.
And Cen Yeming would definitely start to build relationships and talk about feelings right away...
As it turned out, it was exactly as Xiangnu said.
Liu Ruyi just said her true thoughts. She could lose, but she must win one last time.
As long as it is within her ability, she can help Cen Yeming.
Just as she turned around, Cen Yeming stopped her and said, "Ruyi, I do have something to ask you, but the most important thing is that I still want to see you."
Liu Ruyi asked, "You don't need to come to me for small matters, right?"
Is it possible that Cen Yeming can’t handle a small matter?
"I want to find Li Yang. I know you have a good relationship with Li Yang..."
Liu Ruyi smiled, "Didn't my relationship with Li Yang run out last time? I helped you to make connections and intercede for you, but what did you do in the end? It's ok to lie to me, but you also went to trouble Li Yang? Do you know how ashamed I was after Li Yang failed the exam? You ruined his life with your own hands, how dare you say you want to see Li Yang?"
Liu Ruyi can help with other things, but that is her feeling for Cen Yeming. Even though she has been frustrated many times, she still can't let go.
But why did she want to go to Li Yang now?
Now she just wanted Li Yang to make more requests to her, so that she would feel better.
Even though Li Yang appeared to be indifferent about failing the exam, Xiangnu had analyzed with her that the price Li Yang paid for this small matter could not be measured in money.
Cen Yeming said bitterly: "Ruyi, this time I really..."
"No way! I won't help you with this!"
After Liu Ruyi finished speaking, she didn't want to listen to Cen Yeming anymore and left directly with a very firm attitude.
No matter how Cen Yeming shouted at her from behind, she didn't turn around.
After returning to her room, she called Xiangnu.
Xiang Nu seemed to be anxious to know the result, so he asked, "What does Cen Yeming want to do?"
"You want to see Li Yang? Don't worry, I will definitely not cause any trouble for Li Yang. I have already refused."
Xiangnu asked again: "What about the money?"
"I don't know. Most likely he won't give it to me. Cen Yeming didn't say."
Xiang Nu hurriedly said, "You are stupid. Now that Cen Yeming needs your help, why don't you take the opportunity to get the money back? We are willing to lend you money because we have a friendship, but we can't lend it to you forever. That money is your only support for the rest of your life. Who else can you count on?"
"But..." Liu Ruyi hesitated.
Xiang Nu was anxious, "You still don't want to give up, right? What does the life and death of the Cen family have to do with you? The fact that the Cen family can find you means they have no other way. Cen Yeming will definitely have to shamelessly look for you later. Just be persistent and give the money first, then you can help them and call Li Yang over."
"That would make Li Yang very embarrassed..."
"What's the problem? Li Yang is actually a warm-hearted person. He will most likely help you when the time comes. Anyway, get the money first, and then I'll talk to you..."
As she spoke, Liu Ruyi heard a knock on the door.
"Boss, the guest from the previous box said he wanted to see you for something, and he's already at the door."
Xiang Nu on the phone also heard it, "Go talk to him and ask the Cen family to pay back the money they owe you, otherwise there's no room for negotiation!"
…
"Let him wait for me in the box."
Liu Ruyi finally made a decision.
…
School started, and He Lewei became Li Yang's little followers.
"Brother Yang... do you know Ye Bingcheng? He used to live in Jiangcheng, which is your hometown."
He was not asking this question to himself, but to Gong Chenlin.
Because Gong Chenlin’s immediate superior is Ye Bingcheng now.
"I don't know him, what's wrong?"
Li Yang didn't tell the truth.
He Lewei snorted coldly and said, "How did Ye Biaocheng survive in Jiangcheng when he didn't even know Brother Yang?"
"What do you want to say?"
He Lewei immediately put on a flattering look and said, "It's like this, I just want to ask Brother Yang if Ye Bingcheng is your man."
"Bah! Bah! I'm not interested in men! Also, everyone in this world is an independent individual. What's the point of talking about your people and my people? They are everyone's people. They serve the people. Do you understand?"
Li Yang is just a student, so of course he won't raise himself to a high position.
The higher you lift it, the greater the pressure.
He Lewei nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, Brother Yang is right."
Li Yang felt that He Lewei didn't understand, so he corrected him again: "Xiao He, this is a new era. Don't play the old tricks. The Internet will strip you bare. We are all comrades with a common goal. There is no other class division except that those who are capable should work harder. You can't make mistakes. Do you understand?"
He Lewei: "..."
Then don’t call me Xiaohe, you bastard.
"Yes, yes, Brother Yang is right in his criticism."
After school started again with Le Wei, he never called Yang brother again. The reason was that not only did Li Yang make a big fuss this time, but he didn't get into any trouble at all.
He didn't even know where Li Yang, a college student, got the support.
The Cen family is in a very miserable situation now, no different from ants on hot pot. Even if they can survive this time, there is a high probability that they will be disabled.
"Brother Yang, you also know that Gong Chenlin is in Jiangbei..."
"That's your girlfriend, not mine."
He Lewei: "..."
Li Yang wouldn't say anything to help, at least not now.
His relationship with Ye Bingcheng hasn't reached that stage yet.
Now he is considering immigration and is actively embracing immigration policies.
He Lewei came over again and asked, "Brother Yang, can you tell me how you won?"
"What?"
"It's the Cen family. I know this better than anyone else. The Cen family did nothing wrong. They always had the advantage, but you somehow overturned them."
Li Yang smiled and said, "Comeback? Is this an honorable thing? I'm doing business honestly, but I'm being targeted like this. The current situation can only be attributed to God's will. There is still justice in the world, and justice will prevail, don't you know?"
"What bullshit justice? Isn't it all about who has the bigger fist? Brother Yang, you don't have to hide our relationship, right? Give me some experience, and I won't make mistakes again in the future."
Li Yang said softly, "It's nothing, it's just that the times have changed. Those stubborn people from the old times should have been eliminated by this era. In this era, if you do something small, you will have to bear the cost of backlash. Another thing is that you should actively embrace the grassroots, because God is watching what you do."
"Ahem...deep, deep..."
He Lewei actually didn’t quite understand.
In essence, isn't power just about covering the sky with one hand? It has been like this since ancient times, so what is there to be retaliated against?
The so-called backlash is still because the strength is not strong enough.
But Li Yang's behavior this time was very different. He wrote something like a 'manifesto', which directly made the Cen family miserable. Then some help came, and now the Cen family is about to collapse.
"Why do you want to listen so clearly? Do you want to make a mistake? You are nothing now, why do you study that stuff all day? When you interact with people in the future, just remember to open your heart, nothing else matters."
He Lewei quickly said, "I swear to God, I don't have any bad intentions towards Brother Yang."
Li Yang: "Yes, you should tell me more of these things in the future, and tell others more of them, and then show off by treating us to a meal. Then everyone will believe you. By the way, read more Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Liu Bei in the future."
"Ah? Shouldn't it be Cao Cao?"
"Cao Cao is bullshit, it's all from the old times, what's the point of reading it?"
Li Yang actually didn't understand the Three Kingdoms, nor did he know whether Liu Bei was a true gentleman or a hypocrite.
But he knew that Liu Bei had done enough on the surface.
Although the Internet era has been around for many years, it has not yet reached its true peak.
The next few years will be an era of great explosion. The Internet will educate the old-school and completely overturn the heroic theories that they regard as their guiding principles.
Only by actively participating on the Internet and embracing all groups can we become powerful.
…
Cen Yeming was forced to start raising money because Liu Ruyi was unwilling to give in at all.
But he simply couldn't come up with three hundred million.
After raising funds for several days in a row and borrowing all that he could, he finally managed to come up with 100 million yuan.
With 100 million yuan, he came to Ruyi Pavilion.
Ruyi Pavilion became even more desolate, with no guests and only a few waiters.
The operating costs of Ruyi Pavilion are indeed very high. Because this land is for commercial use, Liu Ruyi's annual rent is over 10 million.
There are also environmental maintenance costs, and electricity bills are over a million a year.
Adding all the miscellaneous stuff, the annual revenue would be at least 20 million.
A restaurant, even if its prices are a bit higher, can't make that much money in a year.
Not to mention that there is no one here now, it's just a waste of money.
This time he did not go to the box, but went directly to Liu Ruyi's living room.
Liu Ruyi is still as beautiful as she was a few days ago.
“Ruyi…”
He took the initiative to say hello.
Liu Ruyi said calmly: "Did you get the money?"
She didn't know whether she hoped Cen Yeming was rich or poor.
Cen Yeming smiled and said, "Ruyi, I have really tried my best these days. My family has encountered some problems recently and I can't come up with much cash. I borrowed all I can and now I only have 100 million. But don't worry, I will send the remaining 200 million as soon as the matter is resolved. I swear on my own integrity!"
He made a promise, and this time he was more serious than ever.
Because... the ofo yellow bikes are becoming less and less valuable, and now no one wants them even at 150 million.
Moreover, on Youku, it was clear that they had lost the live broadcast rights for LOL in May, but some of their game anchors still refused to switch jobs.
Coupled with the huge pressure from the legal department, Chest Hair TV’s future financing situation is not optimistic.
Of course, the most important thing is Boss Jia. Some problems were found in the finances. Although it seems that the impact is not significant, Boss Jia's attention is no longer on making cars.
They must reconcile with Li Yang and let Li Yang come forward to help them alleviate the current situation, otherwise the Cen family will not only be ruined but will also be heavily in debt.
The one who owes the money is the boss? It is feasible for ordinary businessmen, but not for the Cen family.
Liu Ruyi did not reply.
Cen Yeming was anxious, "Ruyi, can you just treat it as my plea? Now only you can save me. From now on, if you say east, I will never say west. When you come to my house in the future, I promise to let you make the decision on all matters big and small at home!"
Liu Ruyi took a deep breath and said, "Bring the money first."
"As long as you agree to help, I will call and have someone transfer the message to you right away."
After hearing this, Liu Ruyi, who was originally feeling a little stressed, suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Cen Yeming's words were very clear. If he didn't agree, he wouldn't give him the money.
"Okay, I agree to help you. After the money arrives, I will help you contact Li Yang."
Cen Yeming's expression brightened, and he quickly said, "Then let Ruyi speak up for me. With your relationship with Li Yang, there will definitely be no problem."
Liu Ruyi asked: "What does it mean to say something nice? Last time, Li Yang lost a lot of money. No matter how much face I have this time, what I say may not be useful."
Cen Yeming said: "Ruyi, I know this will make things difficult for you. This time... we can only succeed, not fail, so please do your best, Ruyi."
He knew that his words were useless and might even have side effects.
But Liu Ruyi can.
If Liu Ruyi is not enough, there is still Xiangnu and Song Yu.
They have a deep sisterly love, and as long as Liu Ruyi is willing, this will definitely succeed.
At this moment, Liu Ruyi glanced at her phone and asked, "What do you mean by trying your best? No matter what conditions Li Yang puts forward, I have to agree to them?"
"Yes, promise him everything!"
Liu Ruyi smiled, "What if Li Yang asks me to sleep with him?"
The expression on Cen Yeming's face froze.
Because...it is possible that Li Yang would really make such a request.
After all, this time there is no benefit for Li Yang at all. What is the only thing that can impress him?
Liu Ruyi on the side said: "I can help with other things, but if this is the case, I can't help you."
Cen Yeming, who originally had an unpleasant expression on his face, panicked when he heard this.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Ruyi, I'm sorry for making you suffer."
Liu Ruyi's eyes widened, and she looked at Cen Yeming in disbelief, "What are you talking about?"
Cen Yeming said pleadingly, "Ruyi, no matter what conditions Li Yang puts forward, you must agree to them. I promise that you will not be wronged in vain. I will compensate you tenfold or a hundredfold in the future."
