They did not choose a high-end restaurant. It was just a home-cooked meal. Lu Bai knew very well what Shen Tong was thinking at this moment. If you treated him to a big meal, he would still feel uncomfortable. A small restaurant that was down-to-earth was the most suitable.
"Teacher Xiao Lu, let me toast you.”
Ma Dong didn't have such an actress. How should he put it? Her eyes were quite big, and her voice was quite rough. However, she really couldn't be considered pretty, nor was she particularly special. However, this person's personality was very forthright, and she was the standard masculine woman.
Ma Dong wasn't very surprised by this meal. She knew very well what kind of person Lu Bai was. Although he wasn't a big shot, he was still many levels higher than the lousy drama actors like them.
Moreover, it seemed that Lu Bai was taking care of them. Perhaps it was because he was friends with Teacher He? Have you heard of Happy Muggles?
Lu Bai was actually using Teacher He as an excuse. After all, he was the only one in the world who knew how amazing Happy and his group of Muggles would be in the future. However, if they were nice to him for no reason, it would make people suspicious, so he used Teacher He as an excuse.?
Shen Tong was quite a glutton. Otherwise, he would not have become so fat in the future. However, Lu Bai noticed that Shen Tong had been staring at a few meat dishes for a long time, but he had not touched them. He was afraid that he wanted to pack them up and bring them home after he finished eating.
"Teacher Xiao Lu…"
"You should just call me Xiao Bai."
"Uh, Teacher Xiaobai, if you have anything to say, just say it.”
Shen Tong was not stupid. Why would Lu Bai treat him to a meal for no reason? He was not that rare.
"Hehe, you're thinking too much…"
Lu Bai really just wanted to get to know Shen Tong and form a good relationship. If he had an entertainment company under him, he could consider signing Shen Tong. This guy had potential and had a high return on investment.
However, he did not have a company, and Shen Tong did not know how to perform crosstalk. It was not a big deal to sign with Deyun. Right now, they were just friends. When there was a chance in the future, he could take this wild Shen Tong under his wing.
Lu Bai was not worried that Shen Tong would run away. Based on the current situation, Shen Tong and his gang would be dead for a long time…
"Wife, guess who I bumped into today?”
Shen Tong returned home with the takeaway, his face full of excitement.
His wife looked delicate and gentle. One look and one could tell that she was a woman who lived a good life. Although the couple were poor, their lives were very stable.
"Who is it? You didn't go to the designated driver tonight?"
"Lu Bai! Do you know Eldest Senior Brother De Yun? He wrote the poem that you like! He was an old talent with a good personality and did not pretend at all.”
"Really? How did you touch him?"
"I don't know either. Lu Bai came all the way to the theater to watch the performance, and even treated me and Ma Dong to a meal that we haven't eaten yet. Here, this is a takeaway for you. No one has touched it before. Warm it up and eat it.”
The daughter-in-law saw that Shen Tong's face reeked of alcohol and took a hot towel to help him wipe his face.
"There's food at home, save it for you tomorrow…Teacher Lu is looking for you because she wants to promote you?”
His wife had always thought that her husband, Shen Tong, would be successful in the future, but she had waited for several years.
"He didn't say anything. He only said that he wanted to be friends and that there would be a chance to work together in the future. But he didn't say anything. This person is really not bad. What's the phrase? Oh right, elegant young master.”
After sending Cheng Xiaoyun off, Lu Bai sat in the car and smoked a cigarette. Today, he suddenly ran into Shen Tong, who had collapsed on the street, which gave him some new ideas.
The timeline of this world was completely different from his previous life. Many actors who had already become famous in his previous life were still eating rubbish now, but there was no doubt about their talent.
There was no real hero created by current events. As long as one could make achievements in all walks of life, they would not be given for free. It was the same in the entertainment industry. No matter how lucky you were, if you did not have the ability, you would not be able to make it in the end.
Nowadays, no matter how good the company was, no matter how much money they spent, weren't those trainees just a flash in the pan? How many of them could really gain a foothold in the entertainment industry?
Lu Bai wondered if he should recruit a team of his own. If he acted well, he would direct. If he guided well, he would turn into a big shot. If he really became a celebrity, he would form his own company to nurture new people.
However, Lu Bai did not have enough money on hand. He had about eight million yuan in savings now. It seemed like a lot to ordinary people. If he spent it sparingly, he would be able to live comfortably for the rest of his life.
However, in the entertainment industry, a few million was a drop in the ocean. It might not even be enough to invest in a small online drama.
Lu Bai had said that he would not form a crosstalk club, but that did not mean that he could not start an entertainment company.
The scale of the company did not need to be large. As long as the employees were elites, there was no need to worry about not being able to achieve success.
It seemed like he couldn't be idle anymore. He had to make some money.
When he wanted to sleep, someone would send him a pillow. Early the next morning, Lu Bai received a call from Shorty Dajin before he even woke up.
"Xiao Bai, the headquarters have agreed to let Little Tanuki Music be independent and split the shares. The general intention is that your next three works will be released in Little Tanuki Music. The quality can't be too low.”
Sure enough, the Ah-Li Group had been fooled. It was not that they did not understand. The key was that Ah-Li Music was a new music software with few users. Most of them were Lu Bai's fans.
Originally, Ah Li Group did not care about this music software, nor did they expect it to make money. It was just a small, invisible department that was dispensable. It was mainly created to disgust the goose factory.
In the eyes of the Little Tanuki Group, Little Tanuki Music was just an idle broken jar. It was usually piled up in the courtyard and could not be remembered. If someone liked it, they could sell it for a little money.
"15% is too little. Let's talk about it again. I can guarantee that the next ten works will be authorized to Ah Li Music for free, but I want 30% of the shares!”
On the other end of the phone, both the short man and the tight man were shocked.
Lu Bai's song was worth around two million yuan, so ten songs were worth twenty million yuan. How much was Ah Li Music worth in total?
"I don't think the headquarters will reject it. However, Xiao Bai, you're playing such a big game. Are you really that confident in the idea of the listening software?”
Ten songs, and they had to be of high quality. If it were any other singer, they might not even be able to compose ten songs in their lifetime. That would be equivalent to selling themselves directly to Little Tanuki.
However, only Lu Bai knew his own " musical talent " the best. It was only ten songs. Hehe, how many songs did he have in his head? If I told you, you would be scared to death…
Finally, three days later, Lu Bai and a senior executive of the Ali Group signed the equity transfer contract. After discussion, the software, Ali Music, was officially renamed Ximaraya.
The brand-new Xima Laya Company had 35% of the shares held by the Ali Group, 15% each by the two subsidiary companies under Boss Ma's name, 30% by Lu Bai, and 5% by the executive CEO.
Lu Bai had become the second largest shareholder of Ximalaya. He was the managing director and had the second decision-making power in the company…
At this time, no outsiders paid attention to this matter. It was only after a long time that people looked back and realized that this was actually a very important node on Lu Bai's path to glory.
"Grandpa, are you feeding the horses?"
On the afternoon of the contract signing, Lu Bai arrived at Master Qian's zoo. Old Guo was also there…
