Reborn in 2014: A One-Man Tycoon

"Actually, you don't need to worry about whether the company can create a hit song for you."

While everyone was still in shock, Meng Chuan continued:

"As long as you can achieve number one in sales, everything will be handed over to the company."

"If you were a singer, the company would definitely create a song for you that could enter the top three of the hit song charts."

"If one song doesn't work, then two, and so on, until we can get into the top three."

"If you are a film or television actor, the company will create a movie or a phenomenal TV series for you that grosses over a billion yuan. If one isn't enough, then two will do."

Meng Chuan's promise was like a bombshell.

With Meng Chuan's promise, what else do they have to worry about?

"Mr. Meng, what if it's the same person who's always number one in sales?"

Suddenly, an internet celebrity stood up and asked a question.

This issue instantly attracted everyone's attention.

They all listened intently.

If one person always comes out on top, wouldn't all of the company's resources be concentrated on that one person?

Then the others still have no chance to rise to prominence!

Especially for some highly influential celebrities, their fans are very loyal.

It's very difficult for ordinary internet celebrities to compete with real stars.

"Once you actually start live-streaming sales, you'll find that, in many cases, the number of followers has nothing to do with the success of live-streaming sales."

"Celebrities may not be able to beat internet celebrities, and internet celebrities may not necessarily be stronger than ordinary people."

Meng Chuan explained:

"Your ability to drive sales is related to your product selection, sales methods, live streaming style, and even your sales pitch."

Meng Chuan paused and then said:

"Of course, I will discuss this with President Zheng later and we will set the criteria for the top three and the reward levels."

"If someone is ranked number one in sales three times in a row, there will be a cooling-off period."

"This cooling-off period is not to make you stop live-streaming sales, but to give you more time and energy to digest the rewards you have previously earned."

"In other words, the cooling-off period simply means you won't participate in the monthly evaluation. You can still continue to sell products, and there will be an 'Annual Sales Ranking' at the end of the year."

"The rewards for the annual chart will definitely be higher than those for the monthly chart. It could be ten hit songs, a movie with a box office of over 2 billion, or three popular variety shows."

I'm so excited.

Meng Chuan's words excited everyone.

How could such a reward not be tempting?

Especially for film and television actors, what does it mean to have a movie with a box office of 5 billion?

It's worth noting that in 2015, the highest-grossing domestic film, "Monster Hunt," only reached around 24 billion yuan.

That was already a phenomenal hit, making countless actors envious.

Let alone 2 billion, even a movie with only 1 billion in box office revenue is a dream that countless filmmakers can only dream of.

You absolutely must sell products through live streaming.

They'd even pay out of their own pocket to promote products.

Wu Yifan had lost much of his arrogance at this moment.

He finally understood why Meng Chuan dared to cut off all his and Jupiter's resources.

If Meng Chuan's words are true, then Meng Po Guild will never lack top-tier celebrities in the future.

As long as a few hit songs or a few hit movies are released.

This will attract a constant stream of A-list celebrities who will fight tooth and nail to join the Meng Po Guild.

They don't even need A-list celebrities to join in.

The Meng Po Guild itself can continuously produce a large number of top-tier celebrities.

"If there are no problems, then the meeting is adjourned. We will refer to the benefits announced by the company later."

After answering many questions from the audience, Meng Chuan concluded the meeting.

Many people left the meeting room with excitement and anticipation.

However, Lao Xiao, Zheng Muchen, Huo Wanxi, and Wu Yifan stayed behind.

"President Meng, I was blind to your true worth before. I apologize for my previous behavior and hope..."

Wu Yifan walked up to Meng Chuan.

This time he adopted a very humble attitude.

Because he truly felt Meng Chuan's determination and strength.

He may have been a bit arrogant before, but now he knows that only by staying in the Meng Po Guild can he have a better future.

Unfortunately, Meng Chuan didn't give him a chance to finish speaking, coldly interrupting him:

"I'm not as narrow-minded as you think. Cutting off your resources doesn't mean you've offended me."

“You should know what you’ve been doing behind the scenes. If any one of those things is exposed, it won’t just be your public image that collapses, you’ll end up in jail.”

Meng Chuan's words pierced Wu Yifan's heart like a knife.

Does Meng Chuan already know?

But Wu Yifan still said, somewhat unwilling to give up:

"I...I didn't do anything!"

A flash of disgust crossed Meng Chuan's eyes:

"If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place. You know in your heart whether you did it or not, and you don't need to explain anything to me."

"The rules I mentioned in the previous meeting will not change."

"I won't gamble the company's reputation on your dirty deeds not being exposed."

"From now until the end of your contract, I will not give you any resources."

"You can interpret this as me wanting to sideline you. You can take legal action. If you dare to utter a single word against the company, I will expose your dirty deeds to the public."

"Now, get out of here."

With Meng Chuan's last word, Wu Yifan's "death sentence" was officially pronounced.

Wu Yifan had not expected Meng Chuan to be so resolute.

Even though he was dissatisfied, he couldn't utter a single word at that moment.

He could only turn and leave with a gloomy face.

"President Meng, this Kris Wu is really..."

After Wu Yifan left, Zheng Muchen cautiously asked.

Wu Yifan is absolutely a hot commodity right now.

If properly nurtured, he could definitely become a cash cow for the company.

"Don't have any illusions about him; he's not worth cultivating."

Meng Chuan stopped Zheng Muchen from speaking, and Zheng Muchen dared not say anything more.

Zheng Muchen used to think Meng Chuan was easy to get along with.

But the more he got to know Meng Chuan, the more he felt that Meng Chuan possessed an awe-inspiring majesty.

Especially after learning that a large group of people called Meng Chuan "Young Master", Zheng Muchen and even Lao Xiao sometimes dared not joke around in front of Meng Chuan.

"Old Xiao, since I have some free time, I'll record a few more songs for you! You guys can decide for yourselves whoever is suitable to sing them."

Meng Chuan said to Lao Xiao.

"Okay, you sing, and I'll record and compose the music."

Old Xiao excitedly took out his phone.

Then Meng Chuan started to let loose.

One after another, the viral hits of Douyin (TikTok) that would become famous for generations to come were sung a cappella by Meng Chuan.

Lao Xiao and Zheng Muchen became increasingly alarmed as they listened.

I really don't know how much more knowledge Meng Chuan has left in his head.

These songs are so catchy, they're bound to become hits.

Huo Wanxi, who was still sitting in the conference room, listened with rapt attention.

Her gaze towards Meng Chuan was filled with undisguised love.

This left Yingdie, who had been standing behind Meng Chuan, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

It wasn't until Yingdie's cell phone suddenly rang that she quietly went to the side to answer it.

A short while later, Yingdie walked to Meng Chuan's side and whispered:

"Young Master, Elder Huang is here and wants you to go out for dinner!"
