Chapter 183: Chapter 151: Family Status! Impossible, Right?

“Is this the girl confirming it herself?”

“…” Cen Ning looked at the comments one by one, a strange feeling creeping over her.

She had been revealing how the sunlight effect was calibrated. How did everyone’s focus drift from that to whether her boss had spent the night at her place?

’What is wrong with these people!’

Apparently, she had inadvertently stirred up a bit of a storm, adding fuel to the fire of her “atmospheric” video.

…

In the office, Chen Jincheng was discussing long-form videos with Sister Hong, explaining the content trends. “So, for the next while, long-form videos will be the mainstream on Tiao Yin. The company is going to pour a massive amount of traffic and exposure into developing them.”

Sister Hong was very surprised to hear what her boss said.

This was another of Tiao Yin’s internal strategic plans. Tiao Yin was still having them help with experiments, and the feature hadn’t even been officially launched.

Yet her boss had somehow deduced their next move just from Tiao Yin’s current actions.

Besides, the boss had never been wrong. She believed this time would be no different.

So, she asked, “Boss, in that case, should Second-Life Star also focus on promoting one or two plot-driven content creators? Should we choose from our existing artists or recruit new ones?”

Chen Jincheng smiled. “I already have someone in mind. Lin Leqing will be here in a minute. She has a new account. I need you to contact Tiao Yin for her and get the long-form video feature enabled.”

“Her?” Sister Hong was suddenly a little surprised.

She knew of Lin Leqing, of course. The girl always called the boss “Senior,” but he wasn’t her senior at all. Sister Hong knew her boss’s background very well; he hadn’t attended her school.

Previously, the boss had gone to great lengths to trick her into signing with Second-Life Star. Sister Hong had been a bit confused at the time, thinking he was going to promote her next.

But then he had promoted Ximeng and Wang Qiqi, yet she hadn’t seen him arrange for a single video to be shot for Lin Leqing.

If the boss hadn’t brought her up today, she might have forgotten about the girl entirely.

Now that the boss had predicted Tiao Yin would be pushing plot-driven accounts and had immediately mentioned Lin Leqing, she couldn’t help but wonder. Did he have some inside channel that told him about Tiao Yin’s strategy ahead of time, leading him to sign Lin Leqing in advance?

’But that can’t be right. How would the boss know that Lin Leqing had talent in this specific niche?’

She really couldn’t figure it out.

Just then, Lin Leqing and Li Muchen appeared at the office door. Lin Leqing knocked, and after getting an affirmative, she walked in. “Senior, I’m here!”

Seeing her, Chen Jincheng said quickly, “Perfect timing. Give your Tiao Yin Number to Sister Hong to register with the company, and then she’ll help you activate the new video account features.”

“Okay, Senior.” Lin Leqing nodded, then looked at Sister Hong and greeted her, “Sister Hong, I’ll be in your care.”

“Mhm, come with me,” Sister Hong said, leading Lin Leqing out of the office and toward her own.

Li Muchen followed them out without saying a word.

Chen Jincheng, however, was observing her, wondering how he could recruit this future Zhao Liying of short dramas into his fold.

Li Muchen stepped out of the office. Seeing that Lin Leqing had business to attend to, she went to the reception area to wait. She didn’t try to interfere this time. After all, her cousin had signed with Second-Life Star, and there were some things she simply had to comply with.

’It’s just that shooting those ten-second short videos isn’t the right path for my cousin. Even if she gets famous, she has no other talents and is destined to not go far. I’ll still have to get her into acting eventually. As for the contract issue, I’ll just have to see about negotiating with that Chen Jincheng.’

In Sister Hong’s office, she had already opened her computer and pulled up an application form for Lin Leqing to fill out.

Lin Leqing didn’t have a clear understanding of the 30-second and 60-second video permissions. After all, she hadn’t really delved into short videos yet and hadn’t shot a single one since being signed.

However, since her senior had arranged it, all she had to do was follow his instructions.

Back in his office, Chen Jincheng sat down, opened a new document on his computer, and typed out a title: “Plot-Driven Account Script.”

In the other world, there had been many popular plot-driven accounts, but he hadn’t paid close attention to most of them. After all, he was mostly interested in looking at long legs. The only plot-driven account he had followed relatively closely was Uncle Qi.

Before a painful breakup sealed his heart, he had constantly watched Uncle Qi’s videos. He even learned all the things a “good man” should do from Uncle Qi and did all those “good boyfriend” things for his girlfriend.

Unfortunately, all those things he did ended up becoming ammunition for his girlfriend to use against him. She said he was like a nanny, that he didn’t give her any sense of masculinity at all, and that he was more like a simp.

It was only then that he realized Uncle Qi’s videos were actually just simp tutorials.

Videos that taught men how to be simps. When the “simp economy” collapsed and his fellow men began to awaken, its popularity was bound to fade.

It was after that time that he threw himself into the arms of the Ancestral Master, deeply feeling the wisdom in the Ancestral Master’s words.

Therefore, in the other world, Uncle Qi was indeed one of the creators he had followed in greater detail.

And since Uncle Qi had been a top-tier creator in the early days of plot-driven accounts, his content was bound to be a powerhouse at this stage. So, regardless of whether an Uncle Qi would appear in this world, he would just rip off the content first and worry about it later.

The key was, if he was the one to shoot these videos, the series wouldn’t fizzle out like Uncle Qi’s did in the other world.
