Fu Yushi and Wang Yunxi saw that they couldn’t persuade Wang Yan otherwise, so they had to keep quiet.
The two of them were in a similar state — they were a little uneasy, but they were also faintly excited. Worry and expectation were mixed together. They both hoped for the company to develop by leaps and bounds, but they were also afraid that it would be too big of a step and drag them down.
However, no one could stop Wang Yan from doing what he had set his mind to do.
Therefore, they decided not to think too much about it.
Fu Yushi realized that doing what they were supposed to do would be the best way they could support Wang Yan.
Therefore, she went straight to the point. “How much time do I have to prepare? What do I need to prepare?”
Wang Yunxi was stunned and silently sized up Fu Yishi.
This girl really got into character quickly!
The employees that Wang Yan found were really outstanding…
Wang Yan deliberated for a moment and made three requests of her.
“First, try to figure out the character’s state of mine.”
“Don’t be in a hurry to memorize the lines. I’ll continue to change them until I’m satisfied.”
“The most important thing is the character’s state of mind. To me, the female lead must have a very quiet and feel slightly alienated from society.”
“Most of the time, there’s no obvious expression on her face, but it’s definitely not like she’s incapable of expression.”
“It’s supposed to be a kind of silence that contains strength and steeped in confidence.”
“If you can find the right state of mind, the charm of the character and the tension of the story will firm and steady.”
Nawu stuck out her tongue after hearing these. “Gosh…that’s so hard…”
But Fu Yushi clearly understood. She nodded her head fiercely and her eyes were shining.
“I understand what you mean. The character of the female lead is highly intelligent and extremely powerful. Her cowardly nature in the early part of the story is all a pretense. If she doesn’t perform well in the quiet state where she accumulates strength, her transformation later will be lacking in persuasiveness!”
“That’s right.” Wang Yan nodded satisfactorily. He was really appreciative of how clever the little princess was, so he added on another two pointers.
“Even if your acting skills are only at 60 points, the movie will still be popular because the fight scenes are the main selling point.”
“But just because the movie does well, it doesn’t mean that you would do well.”
“You have to hit at least 90 points in acting in order to fully bring out the charm of the female lead and convince the audience.”
“I will do my best!” Fu Yushi nodded vigorously. She was excited and motivated, and her face was slightly flushed.
Wang Yan consoled her, “Don’t worry, your personality and lifestyle is very similar to the female lead, so it won’t be too hard for you.”
“It’s a script written for you after all, so it’ll definitely match your usual self,” murmured Nawu as she smiled brightly and winked at Fu Yushi.
Fu Yushi suddenly blushed as if she had thought of something.
Wang Yan ignored Big Bear and continued with his next point.
“Secondly, prepare two songs.”
“The first one will be used at the first round of the competition and it won’t be a very long scene, so as long as you sing two lines really well, you’d be able to floor everyone with your voice.”
“The second song will be at the semi-finals, so you would have more time to sing.”
“Whether you sing these two songs well or not doesn’t affect the story much, but it will affect you personally.”
“So try to unleash your charm as much as possible!”
In the original, the female lead’s singing as only so-so, so it didn’t match her ‘expert at everything’ sort of persona.
But of course, that was just a slight flaw and it didn’t really affect the rest of the movie.
However, if the female lead sang really well, that would be great to watch.
People would think, “My gosh! How is she so amazing?!”
And once the audience had such an impression, they would become even more immersed and look forward to the rest of the movie, which would help the audience to gloss over the initial unexciting parts of the movie.
Also, because the female lead in the original wasn’t really that pretty and couldn’t sing well enough, she didn’t become that popular even though the movie was a hit.
But now that he had someone with 96 appearance points like Fu Yushi, the effect would definitely be different.
He was certain that if she sang well, she would garner many fans.
“Is it alright to use an operatic voice to sing?”
Wang Yan’s eyes immediately lit up at this.
“You can sing opera?”
Nawu puffed her chest out proudly. “Are you kidding me? Shishi is majoring in Musical Theatre!”
Fu Yushi was more humble, “If I had to sing the whole song, there would be a lot more flaws. But if it’s just a short clip and I practice just those few lines, I think there’s hope for me to sound professional.”
Sound professional! Wang Yan was overjoyed.
A closeup shot + cinema sound system + professional standard!
That would definitely make her a goddess instantly!
Regardless of how short that scene would be, as long as it was filmed well, it would definitely increase the overall standard of the movie!
It was like when Marilyn Monroe pressed down on her skirt, or like when Sophie Marceau looked back and smiled. It was just a moment, but captured audiences for years to come.
If the little princess could sing at a professional standard, Wang Yan was willing to put in everything he had into that scene!
It didn’t matter how much money it took! He would get the director to make that scene a classic!
…..
After getting a pleasant surprise, Wang Yan had even higher expectations for his third request now.
“Thirdly, action scenes!”
“Once The Witch is finalized and I confirm our stunt director, you will have to go through a period of improving your moves so that they look professional.”
“If we go according to my initial concept, your movements will be mainly simple yet decisive and aggressive moves.”
“The main point is that they should be explosive in power but look easy to execute.”
“Let me describe it simply for you, and you go think about it.”
“For example, if an opponent comes at you from behind with a punch, your body doesn’t move. You just turn your head slightly to the side, the punch goes just past your face, then you grab his fist.”
“The turning of your head has to be fast and filled with energy.”
“But when you stop, you have to stop completely. Your hair can fly in the wind, but your face must not even tremble…”
“Actually, the post production team can do an effect like that, but it’s better if the actual filming went like this…”
“Do you understand what I’m talking about?”
Nawu and Fu Yushi exchanged glances and kept laughing.
As professional dancers, they were a lot more familiar with such concepts as compared to Wang Yan, who didn’t know anything.
“Got it. It’s control of one’s core.” The little princess nodded calmly.
Nawu made a cheeky face at Wang Yan and asked, “Wangwang, have you never seen Liu Li’s upside down purple gold crown and her somersault in the clouds before?”
Wang Yan was completely dumbfounded.
“What are those? I’ve never seen them before…does it have anything to do with this?”
“There’s no point in describing it to you. Go find a chance to take a look and you’d understand! In any case, we know what you want. As long as you list out exactly what moves you need from us, we know how to practice too.”
Were these kids looking down on him?!
Wang Yan couldn’t believe it. Big Bear didn’t even have a Middle Level Skill! How was she this confident!
But when Nawu was being boastful, she looked particularly pretty. Her smile and eyes shone so brightly, Wang Yan couldn’t bear to put her down.
A woman’s second greatest weapon was her face, while her greatest weapon was…well, in any case, Nawu had them both.
After he was done telling them his three requests, the discussion about the script came to an end.
Nawu and Fu Yushi knew that Wang Yan had other things to do, so they bade everyone farewell and went shopping.
After the two girls left, Wang Yunxi asked, “We’re filming a movie?”
“Yup. And our investment won’t be small.”
Wang Yunxi felt an ache pass through his entire body. He grit his teeth and tried to hold himself back but couldn’t hold it in for long.
“Yan, where do you get so much money from?! You’re buying a building and now you’re filming a movie…”
It was a question that was bound to be asked someday. Wang Yan was already prepared for this.
He smiled profoundly, patted Wang Yunxi’s shoulder and whispered, “The legal accounts have some of my money and some of it is money from women. But as for the illegal portion…you wouldn’t want to know about that part.”
Wang Yunxi went insane inside. That was the part he really wanted to know!
But his rationality stopped him from doing anything rash. He forced himself to smile and nodded quietly.
“Hurry up with the recruitment. Once the building is registered under the company and I finish the splitting up of the shares, we’ll start on the film.”
Wang Yunxi nodded sadly. “I’m going crazy with the amount of work I have…you go talk to Ling Ya and the rest about their shares, I’ll continue looking for more girls to poach…”
“If anyone doesn’t want to sign no matter what, you can woo her until she decides to marry you!” said Wang Yan with a cheeky and super perverted smile.
But Wang Yunxi knew what Wang Yan was implying – he was not to go after any of the girls in the company.
He nodded quietly and got into the car.
“Back to the office!”
…
Wang Yan spoke to Mi Zi and the rest about their shares, his plans for developing the business, the upcoming movie and setting up their personal brands. It took an entire afternoon.
In general, Wang Yan treated these four especially well.
It was mainly reflected in the evaluation.
The shares were divided. First, they had to evaluate the company’s market value in three different stages.
The first stage was before signing a large-scale contract with a live streamer.
The second stage was after signing a large-scale contract with a live streamer.
The third stage was after the office building and the cash increase.
The details were very troublesome. It involved a large number of numbers, and the four live streamers were muddled by the mukbang.
Wang Yan was not in a hurry. He advised them, “Find a friend to understand more about the relevant knowledge, and then consult a lawyer. In the end, you can invest as much money as you want.”
Allowing them to participate in the third phase of the capital increase with cash was another act of kindness.
Ling Ya and the others did not know how the business worked, but they knew how to be grateful. They did not have any objections to the overall plan.
Wang Yan had easily settled another troublesome matter.
After working until 5 pm, the livestreamers rushed out to find a place to start their livestreams. Wang Yan was about to ask Nawu and the little princess out for a meal when his rarely used QQ chat app started beeping like crazy.
He opened the app and saw that it was coming from the group of tycoons who liked spending money on Fish. They called their group ‘I’m Not Spending Money, I’m Spending Loneliness’.
Many of them had tagged Wang Yan.
“Master Wang, do something about your wife! She’s gone mad again!”
“Master Wang, I’m really speechless about your Princess…”
“She’s beaten me up so badly that my face is all bruised and swollen. Master Wang, I want to claim medical fees!”
What the hell was going on?
Was Miss He creating trouble on the platform?!
Wang Yan replied with a puzzled emoji and the entire group exploded.
But Wang Yan ignored the messages in the group and opened the platform instead.
The moment he logged in, he saw Miss He Miaomiao’s huge banner of rockets.
As he clicked further in, he saw that she was bantering.
More specifically, she was teasing This Grandpa.
Wang Yan had no idea exactly how things came to this, but he saw This Grandpa send out a bootlicking message.
“Given Her Majesty’s peerless and matchless beauty that makes flowers pale in comparison and can defeat countries everywhere she goes, I, This Grandpa, shall kneel before her!”
“What are all of you laughing at?! Wouldn’t any of you kneel too?”
“Don’t try to stir shit here! You’re not even at level 60, so how dare you make trouble for Her Majesty!”
“I may be one of the top male users of this platform, but when faced with Her Majesty, my heart trembles and so does my butt! My brain doesn’t work anymore and all I see is you…”
He Miaomiao quietly typed a few words.
“Too exaggerated. I’m not buying it.”
In that moment, This Grandpa’s expression immediately fell.
After he was stunned for a moment, he started to cry and plead with her.
“Your Majesty, I’ve already knelt and groveled at your feet without any regard for my reputation or pride for the last half an hour already. I should at least be able to claim credit for my efforts, right? So many netizens are watching too, so why don’t you be kinder to me?”
“Look! I’m not even playing any games and I’m just following what a million awful netizens want out of me. And it’s still not worth an aeroplane?”
“An aeroplane?” Miss He snorted. “The minimum I give away are rockets, but you’re not qualified to get something like that.”
He really wanted to cry now.
Victorious cries appeared in the live comments after that: Rockets? You’re not worth that much!
This Grandpa refused to give up. “At least give me some sympathy points? Free fish balls are fine as well!”
Miss He said, “What are those? I’ve never seen them before.”
The netizens chimed in: Fish balls? You’re not worth that much!
After two waves of such comments flooded the screen, This Grandpa gave up.
He was going to get laughed at for this for the next week for sure.
Nobody cared if you were a high ranking livestreamer or not.
Just when he was beginning to cry his eyes out, he spotted Wang Fugui enter the room and started his angry tirade immediately.
“Master Wang, aren’t you going to do something about your wife?”
“She’s been teasing me for nearly an hour in the livestream room already! Look at how many livestreamers are refusing to start any broadcast and are just crowding in this room to laugh at me!”
“Oh my god!”
“She’s not letting me play any games and she’s been getting people to send me voice messages, text messages, video messages and even phone calls!”
“And after all that she refuses to give me any rewards! She gave another girl 80 rockets just now but she doesn’t even want to spare me a free fish ball!”
Wang Yan looked at the numbers. There were slightly over two million in the room. How rare.
He looked back at the screen covered in comments.
Some even added colors to their comments to make sure the screen remained flooded.
The Princess was in a really foul mood today. After she flung more than ten thousand bucks at a rookie livestreamer, she started creating trouble for the well established livestreamers.
This Grandpa wasn’t her first victim.
The minute he spotted Wang Yan, he looked like he had found his savior and couldn’t stop airing his grievances to him.
Wang Yan tagged Miss He: Are you having fun?
Princess Kitty: Sorta.
This Grandpa sat up and thought that he was finally going to get his revenge.
Given Master Wang’s reputation and magnanimity, he would give at least 10 rockets as compensation, right?
But Wang Yan calmly replied: Contunue then. I don’t really like this livestreamer either. He’s too long winded. Don’t give more than 10 fish balls.
What the hell?!
This Grandpa was lost for words.
“HAHAHA!”
“That’s so savage!”
The live comments went into another frenzy and covered the screen again.
He Miaomiao finally looked a little happier now. She replied with a nodding emoji and said OK!
Who did these people Wang Yan was?
He wasn’t going to stand in Princess Kitty’s line of fire!
He didn’t care who was unhappy, as long as it wasn’t He Miaomiao.
He took his phone out and texted her: Have fun online, I have other matters to attend to, so I’m logging off now.
“When are you coming back?”
Wang Yan thought about it, then chose his words carefully: If everything goes well, I’ll be back tomorrow afternoon. You want dinner together?
“I’ll tell you later. It depends on whether I have anything on.”
There was no way she had anything else on!
Wang Yan knew that she was just putting on airs on purpose and didn’t expose her. He just replied her with an emoji that has a kindly fatherly smile.
Gosh this set of emojis looked really pervy…he ought to download a better one next time.
After he logged off, Wang Yan looked back at his QQ chat app. He noticed another bunch of tags from the chat group as well as a couple of private messages.
Black Tiger Vangyard: Bro, there’s a Richard Mille product launch happening in Shanghai next weekend. Interested in going?
Repeatedly Urgent Matters: Mr. Wang, I hear your company is hiring livestreamers? I’ve got two friends at other platforms hoping to jump ship, and they’re both really good. When are you coming to Shanghai? We could have a chat?
Wang Yan was very interested in what both tycoons had to say.
But getting new hires was more important now.
Wang Yan replied Repeatedly: I’m in Shanghai now. Free tonight?
“Sure. What’s your number? I’ll get it arranged and call you.”
Li Yixu was always a passionate and efficient man. Wang Yan gave him his number immediately.
He did this guy a favor the last time, so he had to let him show what he had to offer this time.
As for Black Tiger, he had to accompany Miss He to a Perrier-Jouet auction, so if the timings didn’t clash, he didn’t mind going for the product launch.
With that plan in mind, he gave Nawu a call.
“Where are you girls? A tycoon is treating me to dinner later, so do you want to come along and make me look good?”
Fu Yushi didn’t care about such things but Big Bear did.
“Wait for us! The invincible girls are coming right away!”
Fu Yushi and Wang Yunxi saw that they couldn’t persuade Wang Yan otherwise, so they had to keep quiet.
The two of them were in a similar state — they were a little uneasy, but they were also faintly excited. Worry and expectation were mixed together. They both hoped for the company to develop by leaps and bounds, but they were also afraid that it would be too big of a step and drag them down.
However, no one could stop Wang Yan from doing what he had set his mind to do.
Therefore, they decided not to think too much about it.
Fu Yushi realized that doing what they were supposed to do would be the best way they could support Wang Yan.
Therefore, she went straight to the point. “How much time do I have to prepare? What do I need to prepare?”
Wang Yunxi was stunned and silently sized up Fu Yishi.
This girl really got into character quickly!
The employees that Wang Yan found were really outstanding…
Wang Yan deliberated for a moment and made three requests of her.
“First, try to figure out the character’s state of mine.”
“Don’t be in a hurry to memorize the lines. I’ll continue to change them until I’m satisfied.”
“The most important thing is the character’s state of mind. To me, the female lead must have a very quiet and feel slightly alienated from society.”
“Most of the time, there’s no obvious expression on her face, but it’s definitely not like she’s incapable of expression.”
“It’s supposed to be a kind of silence that contains strength and steeped in confidence.”
“If you can find the right state of mind, the charm of the character and the tension of the story will firm and steady.”
Nawu stuck out her tongue after hearing these. “Gosh…that’s so hard…”
But Fu Yushi clearly understood. She nodded her head fiercely and her eyes were shining.
“I understand what you mean. The character of the female lead is highly intelligent and extremely powerful. Her cowardly nature in the early part of the story is all a pretense. If she doesn’t perform well in the quiet state where she accumulates strength, her transformation later will be lacking in persuasiveness!”
“That’s right.” Wang Yan nodded satisfactorily. He was really appreciative of how clever the little princess was, so he added on another two pointers.
“Even if your acting skills are only at 60 points, the movie will still be popular because the fight scenes are the main selling point.”
“But just because the movie does well, it doesn’t mean that you would do well.”
“You have to hit at least 90 points in acting in order to fully bring out the charm of the female lead and convince the audience.”

“So try to unleash your charm as much as possible!”

But now that he had someone with 96 appearance points like Fu Yushi, the effect would definitely be different.
He was certain that if she sang well, she would garner many fans.
“Is it alright to use an operatic voice to sing?”
Wang Yan’s eyes immediately lit up at this.
“You can sing opera?”
Nawu puffed her chest out proudly. “Are you kidding me? Shishi is majoring in Musical Theatre!”
Fu Yushi was more humble, “If I had to sing the whole song, there would be a lot more flaws. But if it’s just a short clip and I practice just those few lines, I think there’s hope for me to sound professional.”
Sound professional! Wang Yan was overjoyed.

“If we go according to my initial concept, your movements will be mainly simple yet decisive and aggressive moves.”
“The main point is that they should be explosive in power but look easy to execute.”
“Let me describe it simply for you, and you go think about it.”
“For example, if an opponent comes at you from behind with a punch, your body doesn’t move. You just turn your head slightly to the side, the punch goes just past your face, then you grab his fist.”

Wang Yunxi went insane inside. That was the part he really wanted to know!
But his rationality stopped him from doing anything rash. He forced himself to smile and nodded quietly.
“Hurry up with the recruitment. Once the building is registered under the company and I finish the splitting up of the shares, we’ll start on the film.”
Wang Yunxi nodded sadly. “I’m going crazy with the amount of work I have…you go talk to Ling Ya and the rest about their shares, I’ll continue looking for more girls to poach…”
“If anyone doesn’t want to sign no matter what, you can woo her until she decides to marry you!” said Wang Yan with a cheeky and super perverted smile.
But Wang Yunxi knew what Wang Yan was implying – he was not to go after any of the girls in the company.

…
Wang Yan spoke to Mi Zi and the rest about their shares, his plans for developing the business, the upcoming movie and setting up their personal brands. It took an entire afternoon.
In general, Wang Yan treated these four especially well.
It was mainly reflected in the evaluation.
The shares were divided. First, they had to evaluate the company’s market value in three different stages.
The first stage was before signing a large-scale contract with a live streamer.
The second stage was after signing a large-scale contract with a live streamer.
The third stage was after the office building and the cash increase.
The details were very troublesome. It involved a large number of numbers, and the four live streamers were muddled by the mukbang.
Wang Yan was not in a hurry. He advised them, “Find a friend to understand more about the relevant knowledge, and then consult a lawyer. In the end, you can invest as much money as you want.”
Allowing them to participate in the third phase of the capital increase with cash was another act of kindness.
Ling Ya and the others did not know how the business worked, but they knew how to be grateful. They did not have any objections to the overall plan.
Wang Yan had easily settled another troublesome matter.

Wang Yan replied with a puzzled emoji and the entire group exploded.
But Wang Yan ignored the messages in the group and opened the platform instead.
The moment he logged in, he saw Miss He Miaomiao’s huge banner of rockets.
As he clicked further in, he saw that she was bantering.
More specifically, she was teasing This Grandpa.
Wang Yan had no idea exactly how things came to this, but he saw This Grandpa send out a bootlicking message.
“Given Her Majesty’s peerless and matchless beauty that makes flowers pale in comparison and can defeat countries everywhere she goes, I, This Grandpa, shall kneel before her!”
“What are all of you laughing at?! Wouldn’t any of you kneel too?”
“Don’t try to stir shit here! You’re not even at level 60, so how dare you make trouble for Her Majesty!”
“I may be one of the top male users of this platform, but when faced with Her Majesty, my heart trembles and so does my butt! My brain doesn’t work anymore and all I see is you…”

“Look! I’m not even playing any games and I’m just following what a million awful netizens want out of me. And it’s still not worth an aeroplane?”

Wang Yan tagged Miss He: Are you having fun?
Princess Kitty: Sorta.
This Grandpa sat up and thought that he was finally going to get his revenge.
Given Master Wang’s reputation and magnanimity, he would give at least 10 rockets as compensation, right?
But Wang Yan calmly replied: Contunue then. I don’t really like this livestreamer either. He’s too long winded. Don’t give more than 10 fish balls.
What the hell?!
This Grandpa was lost for words.
“HAHAHA!”
“That’s so savage!”
The live comments went into another frenzy and covered the screen again.
He Miaomiao finally looked a little happier now. She replied with a nodding emoji and said OK!
Who did these people Wang Yan was?
He wasn’t going to stand in Princess Kitty’s line of fire!
He didn’t care who was unhappy, as long as it wasn’t He Miaomiao.
He took his phone out and texted her: Have fun online, I have other matters to attend to, so I’m logging off now.
“When are you coming back?”
Wang Yan thought about it, then chose his words carefully: If everything goes well, I’ll be back tomorrow afternoon. You want dinner together?
“I’ll tell you later. It depends on whether I have anything on.”
There was no way she had anything else on!
Wang Yan knew that she was just putting on airs on purpose and didn’t expose her. He just replied her with an emoji that has a kindly fatherly smile.
Gosh this set of emojis looked really pervy…he ought to download a better one next time.
After he logged off, Wang Yan looked back at his QQ chat app. He noticed another bunch of tags from the chat group as well as a couple of private messages.
Black Tiger Vangyard: Bro, there’s a Richard Mille product launch happening in Shanghai next weekend. Interested in going?
Repeatedly Urgent Matters: Mr. Wang, I hear your company is hiring livestreamers? I’ve got two friends at other platforms hoping to jump ship, and they’re both really good. When are you coming to Shanghai? We could have a chat?
Wang Yan was very interested in what both tycoons had to say.
But getting new hires was more important now.
Wang Yan replied Repeatedly: I’m in Shanghai now. Free tonight?
“Sure. What’s your number? I’ll get it arranged and call you.”
Li Yixu was always a passionate and efficient man. Wang Yan gave him his number immediately.
He did this guy a favor the last time, so he had to let him show what he had to offer this time.
As for Black Tiger, he had to accompany Miss He to a Perrier-Jouet auction, so if the timings didn’t clash, he didn’t mind going for the product launch.
With that plan in mind, he gave Nawu a call.
“Where are you girls? A tycoon is treating me to dinner later, so do you want to come along and make me look good?”
Fu Yushi didn’t care about such things but Big Bear did.
“Wait for us! The invincible girls are coming right away!”
