Chapter 837: rejection

Machine Translation

Ling Jue ate for a while and realized that she was staring at her. "What's wrong?"

"Well, there's a meeting with the CEO of Vidu the day after tomorrow. Take a look..."

"What's a meeting?" A meeting was a meeting, or a collaboration. Why did this meeting sound like a blind date...

Shui Yi also felt that there was something wrong with this name, so she changed it. "It's like this. Vidu and the others are a new company. It's like a management company. They've signed many talented and handsome artists. They've seen our future and want to work with us. He's also called many artists over to have a meeting. Because there are too many people to meet, I called it a meeting."

Ling Jue rubbed her chin. "Work with us? They're a third party?"

"Yes."

Ling Jue frowned. "I've made a rule in our company that we don't need third party artists."

"Why?" Shui Yi was a little confused. "It's easy to manage a third party."

"I know that third party artists have been trained by the management company, and it's because of this that I don't need them. I think that an anchor should have her own personality and self-respect, and not do things that she hates just to spend money. Those who come from the management company are all used by them. People like that are meaningless."

"..." Shui Yi rarely heard Ling Jue talk so much, but she still did not understand why he had to reject them when he could earn money?

People from the management company were very good at earning money.

Even if it was like what he said, they would do things that they hated just to attract attention, but that was also how they could earn money.

Didn't he start such a big company just to earn money?

"We have to earn money." Ling Jue threw the leftovers into the trash can by the door, washed her hands, and sat on the sofa. "But, this money will make people feel at ease."

"Things like live streaming platforms, as long as one goes online, they will download it. But think about it, what if those people flirt or something are seen by minors? We're not an ***** website, there's no need to make it into something like that. It's a mess, that's not the Mi I want."

"..."

"Singing and bringing fun to everyone is the responsibility of a live broadcast. It's not teaching others what to do. Performing something harmful in front of the screen to earn money, you have to have a bottom line."

Shui Yi did not expect Ling Jue to have such an awareness. She was immediately taught a lesson by him.

Ling Jue stood up and poured a glass of water for her as well. "Besides, a third party is very deceitful. After we're 5:5 with the performer, half of the performer's money will be taken away by the platform. Therefore, I really don't want to cooperate with such a platform."

Shui Yi nodded. She knew about this. After all, she had been in society for so many years and understood many unspoken rules.

"Thinking about it, I'm not as enlightened as you are."

Ling Jue shrugged with a teasing look on her face. "This is not enlightenment, it's just my personal understanding. Of course, I'm only telling you this. If it were anyone else, they would probably call me an idiot. Putting aside so much money and not earning it, they even put themselves on the moral high ground and act so noble."

Shui Yi took a sip of tea and stretched her body. She looked relaxed. "Maybe. I've seen a lot of vampire-like upper-class people. You want his money, he wants your life."

As she spoke, she smiled and stood up. "I'll go back to work first. I'll reject Vidu."
