Shanghai, Pudong New Area
Liu Shishi poured some essential oil, rubbed her hands together, and then massaged the waist and back of Wei Yang, who was lying shirtless on the bed.
“Oh, oh…”
Liu Shishi was very strong, and Wei Yang couldn't help but grimace, feeling both sour and comfortable.
Back then, the two of them became familiar with each other little by little through massage, but the massage at that time was soft and gentle, at most relaxing the muscles, and more of a flirtation. Now Liu Shishi has learned some real skills in private, and massage is truly useful.
Wei Yang has been training hard these days and his muscles are inevitably a little tired, so every few days he seeks out a specialist massage to relax his muscles, promote blood circulation and relieve fatigue.
But if you come to Liu Shishi, you don’t have to look for a masseur.
Although Liu Shishi's technique is far inferior to that of the other master, a burly man in his forties or fifties cannot be as comfortable as a sweet-smelling young woman when being massaged. The difference in professional level can be made up by the enjoyment on the spiritual level.
Liu Shishi really likes to give Wei Yang massages, firstly to deepen their relationship, and secondly because Wei Yang has a good figure, and his touch is pleasant and pleasing to the eye.
After massaging the waist, the back felt less sore and the two could communicate normally. Liu Shishi couldn't help but ask about what Da Mimi said during the meal.
"Mi Mi, do you want to do it yourself?"
"Um."
Wei Yang hummed comfortably: "Who wants to work for someone else when they can be their own boss? Just wait and see. In the future, there will be more and more artist studios, independent, joint ventures, affiliated or wholly owned by a company. Maybe every star can open a studio."
Not to mention anything else, with the policy changes in the future, if celebrities do not open a studio, they will have to pay personal income tax, and the tax rate will be higher. If they open a studio, they will have to pay corporate tax, and the tax rate will be lower.
This is considered a reasonable tax avoidance, so for this reason alone, many artists will open studios and companies to turn their personal income into company income.
However, Da Mimi opened the studio not to avoid taxes, but obviously with the goal of making it bigger and stronger.
"Your best friend is very ambitious. She doesn't want to be a small boss, but to become big and powerful."
To some extent, Wei Yang still admires Da Mimi's ambition. Ordinary artists don't have such ambition, and even if they do, they don't have the confidence.
On the one hand, Da Mimi is ambitious, but the most important thing is that she is famous, so she has the qualifications to negotiate.
It is not easy to cross the class barrier. Wei Yang was able to do so by relying on the golden finger.
People like Da Mimi and Fan Xiaopang, although valuable in themselves, are not enough to make a complete turnaround, so they need support from noble people and the right time.
Among many partners, they chose Wei Yang, hoping to draw on his strength.
Wei Yang was not opposed to this kind of cooperation, because if he didn't help, other people would contact them. In that case, he might as well gain some benefits from it.
However, compared to Fan Xiaopang, Wei Yang still has some reservations about Da Mimi.
Influence of status is one aspect, character is another, and ability is another.
If Fan Xiaopang had been strict, things wouldn't have gone wrong, and Da Mimi might not have made any mistakes, but she probably wouldn't be able to beat her partners. In her previous life, she worked hard for nearly ten years, but was finally kicked out.
So he and Fan Xiaopang opened a company together, and Da Mimi was just a cooperation for their respective needs. How far she can go depends on her own ability.
Liu Shishi admired Da Mimi's courage, but she didn't have the ambition or the desire to imitate her. She was too lazy to bother.
Besides, to be honest, the money that Da Mimi worked so hard to earn was actually earned by just Wei Yang giving her some information.
For example, Wei Yang not only told Fan Xiaopang about hoarding online literature before, but Liu Shishi also hoarded some. Even if they didn't develop them, when the copyright price went up, they could sell them for several Maseratis.
As for Tangren, Lao Cai also intends to release some shares to stabilize people's hearts.
Especially Liu Shishi, she is so popular now and is also Tangren’s biggest signboard, even better than Hu Ge.
The cast list of "Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky" has been made public. The fact that Liu Shishi, who has relatively few roles, is the first role, and Hu Ge is the second role, says it all.
With Wei Yang around, Liu Shishi can easily become independent, and the Tang people will not be able to appease her without paying some blood.
So even though Liu Shishi looks like a Buddhist, she may not necessarily earn less than Da Mimi. This is why Da Mimi gets angry and sad when she sees her.
Wei Yang ignored the weird yet harmonious comparison between the best friends. She had almost finished her own massage and insisted on giving Liu Shishi a massage.
"I won't. You mess around every time."
"Come on, come on, Teacher Liu will give me some pointers, I promise to behave myself."
Liu Shishi blushed and refused, but she could not stand Wei Yang's soft and hard persuasion. However, compared with the previous massage, this massage was only formal and proper for a few minutes, and then Wei Yang's hand slowly slid down, and the atmosphere in the room changed...
…
Wei Yang is busy with martial arts training every day, but he also has to go out from time to time. As mentioned earlier, there are too many Spring Festival activities at the beginning of the year, and he can't avoid it.
So in this regard, Wei Yang is actually not as good as Liu Shishi. She is strong because she has no desires, so many organizers can ignore her.
Logically speaking, Wei Yang has a higher status and is more confident, but there is no way. His family is wealthy and many of his activities are attended by partners or connections, and they have been invited many times, with high treatment and respect.
If he was filming a movie or going on a business trip abroad, Wei Yang could still decline the offer with a legitimate reason.
What I'm afraid of is a window period like this, where even though you're busy, others can't tell and think you can squeeze out time, and that would be embarrassing for them.
So Wei Yang participated in three events throughout February and two more in early March, all of which were well-known events in the industry.
After all, Wei Yang is no small-time figure and has a special status. Even if he wants to protect his partners, he can't just go whenever someone asks him to. The organizer lacks confidence and can't invite him to be present in person.
After finally making it to mid-March, "Joy of Life 2" was about to start filming. Just as Wei Yang was preparing to take a break, LeTV's invitation arrived.
Wei Yang had no choice but to go to Beijing and participate in the so-called LeTV festival under the name of "Joy of Life".
The first event was held last summer, the second was held in March this year, and the third is expected to be held in October.
The reason for this frequency is not just to increase the influence of the event, but it is probably also intended to create momentum for LeTV and build a so-called star enterprise and business idol.
Ordinary people may not be able to see this trick, but Wei Yang knows it in his heart. Boss Jia is trying to make money.
As I said before, Wei Yang doesn't mind cooperating with LeTV because they are willing to spend money, but he only wants to do business and doesn't want to have too many personal relationships.
But Boss Jia favors him very much. He also has great influence and has taken other people's money, so it is impossible for him to divide the money so cleanly.
This abnormal and even radical LeTV festival gave Wei Yang a wake-up call.
For the last two parts of "Joy of Life", if LeTV offers a high price, then we will continue to sell them, but when the cooperation on this series ends, we will just have to cut it off.
At least on the surface, he will not have too much contact with Boss Jia.

Frankly speaking, the timing is a bit early, as LeTV still has several years to go before its "peak". But the sooner he withdraws, the cleaner it will be. If he really wants to have close dealings with Boss Jia during its peak period, he will probably be covered in mud even if he has nothing to do with Boss Jia.
Although thinking so in his mind, Wei Yang was still very cordial when he met Boss Jia.
To be honest, Old Jia is really good to Wei Yang, but his situation is too special and Wei Yang can't control him or save him, so he can only stay away from him.
"Boss Jia has done a great job on this scene. It's a big deal."
Today, LeTV invited no less than a hundred stars, including a large number of popular artists and even big names from Hong Kong and Taiwan, which is considered to be top-notch among various event ceremonies.
"Thanks to you, Joy of Life has been popular since the beginning of the year, and several video websites have been suppressed."
Old Jia couldn't stop smiling. There was a reason why he always favored and admired Wei Yang.
At the beginning, “My Love from the Star” made LeTV break into the first echelon of video websites, and now “Joy of Life” and “The Legend of Zhen Huan” make LeTV unmatched.
In the eyes of Boss Jia, Wei Yang has made great contributions to the current success of LeTV Video, and he sincerely wants to cooperate with Wei Yang for a long time.
As for the recruitment, Boss Jia has seen through it today.
Wei Yang's actual net worth is now almost in the ten figures, and the market value of his various companies has more than doubled. He started from scratch and is still young. He is also a well-known talent and a noble and arrogant scholar. Such a person would not be willing to be inferior to others.
The two of them, each with their own concerns, walked into the inner field talking and laughing, attracting a lot of attention.
When many people saw that it was Boss Jia who personally came to greet Wei Yang, they couldn't help but be surprised.
Everyone knows how awesome Wei Yang is, but Boss Jia is an openly super rich man.
It seems that Lao Jia is gentle and polite to everyone, but in reality, the number of people he can really make others bow down to him can be counted on one hand. As for personally going out to greet people, there are only three or five people in the entire venue, and they are either CEOs of large companies or industry leaders.
Wei Yang has been on the rise in the past two years and is a well-known figure in the Shanghai circle, but after all, he is too young and some people still unconsciously look down on him.
They themselves are certainly not as good as Wei Yang, but they can't help but compare him with other big guys, and then feel that Wei Yang's time in power is limited. On the surface, he looks like a new upstart, but in front of the big guys, he is also a younger brother or even a follower.
However, today, they finally got a taste of the power of this upstart.
Wei Yang arrived and chatted and laughed with Lao Jia. Maybe because he was the host, he didn't stay for too long. Wei Yang turned around and reminisced about the past with boss Wang of Guangxian and Big Dog of Xiaoma Pentium.
The president of New Classics, who has developed well in the past two years, can only chat with the boss on the side because his own boss Cao is not here and his status is not high enough.
Big Dog offered him a cigarette, but Wei Yang had no lighter, so the boss of another medium-sized film and television company in Shanghai personally blocked the wind and lit the cigarette.
After a while, no one knew what they were talking about. Wei Yang said a few words to the president of Xinli, and the latter left temporarily.
After a while, the president of New Classics brought in Chen Sicheng, whose "Beijing Love Story" was invested by New Classics and LeTV.
Just like when Wei Yang had just made his mark and was meeting the bosses of major companies in "The Founding of a Party", Chen Sicheng was also meeting the big bosses and seniors under the introduction of New Classics' president.
It may seem a bit humble, but in fact it proves that he is doing a good job. Ordinary artists and directors and producers can't get into this small circle at all.
"Xiao Chen did a good job."
"Boss Wei is here, you have to study hard."
"If there are any good projects later, we can talk about it."
The big guys all had a good attitude towards Chen Sicheng, but they were also a bit arrogant.
Because he is just a director now, his capital strength is weaker than Wei Yang who was already independent at the beginning, and his work performance and influence are also much inferior, otherwise the attitude of the big guys would be more friendly.
Wei Yang didn't pretend to be anything, he just patted him on the shoulder to encourage him, and Chen Sicheng smiled a little stiffly.
When the artists saw this scene, they were filled with mixed emotions.
Because "Beijing Love Story" is a LeTV drama, Chen was treated well and came relatively early. This guy is low-key in front of the big guys, but arrogant in front of other people. Many people want to get close to him, but he ignores them.
But who can blame him for being so awesome? He made a name for himself in a movie called "Beijing Love Story", and he will be known as Director Chen in the future.
However, when Director Chen faced President Wei, he suddenly became Little Chen. How could this not make people sigh...
