Chapter 425 The Python Swallows the Dragon - An Accident Occurs?
Lei Bin stared at the large characters 'Second Generation Star' and felt numb.
He had always felt like he was living in the shadow of Ershi Xingchen, and now, looking in the direction of that building and at the blocked sunrise, he realized he was truly living in someone else's shadow.
Second Star has actually taken down the Flying Sky Building.
While other MCNs are still renting office space, this guy has already built a whole building.
Not only Lei Binyi, but also many MCN companies and live streaming companies in Century City, especially those near the window, saw the Second Star icon peeking out from under the curtain.
Everyone here works in this industry, so naturally everyone knows about Ershixingchen, the number one MCN company in Linhai City.
Now that the Flying Star Building has been rebranded with the Second Star, everyone is incredulous.
Lin Yue is a screenwriter at GYT Media, responsible for writing scripts for a popular online influencer's videos. Her desk is located by the window, so when she turned her head, she saw the Second Star signboard peeking out from under her.
This made her exclaim in surprise, "Ah, the Second Star."
The people around looked over in confusion.
Someone asked, "Lin Yue, what about Second Star? Are you thinking of switching jobs?"
"Yes, do you have connections to the Second Star Realm?" another person asked.
In Linhai City, everyone working in this industry knows that Ershi Xingchen has the most promising future.
Lin Yue quickly said, "No, it's that the Flying Flight Building has become the Second Starry Sky Building."
As she spoke, everyone around her paused for a moment, then rushed to the windows and looked towards the former Flying Star Building. Sure enough, they saw the four characters "Second Generation Star" appear on the top of the former Flying Star Building.
"Holy crap, Second Generation Stars took over the Flying Sky Building?"
"When it comes to MCNs, Second Star is the only one that has achieved this level."
"That's awesome!"
"..."
More and more people have witnessed this scene among the MCNs and live streaming companies that have settled in Century City, and can't help but watch from a distance.
Some online celebrities who were going out to film saw the Second Star sign as soon as they stepped out of the Century City gate.
These online celebrities naturally know about Er Shi Xing Chen.
The Second Starry Sky already has its own separate building?
The unveiling of the Second Star Tower immediately attracted MCN companies and internet celebrities in Century City after its signboard was revealed.
It's true, everyone used to think that compared to the Second Star, they really had to look up to the Second Star.
Now we really have to look up to the stars of the second generation.
Although Century City is a gathering place for MCN and live streaming companies, the entire Century City is much shorter than this building. It's impossible not to look up at it.
As the curtain fell, the Second Star Star signboard was officially unveiled. At that moment, the employees and artists of Second Star Star all took out their mobile phones to shoot videos.
Those celebrities also uploaded the videos to Douyin.
"The company acquired a large building, and as a member of the company, I feel extremely honored."
I heard that the company's new headquarters will provide us with a dedicated live-streaming room.
The company now owns its own building, so I need to work even harder!
"..."
These second-generation internet celebrities posted a large number of videos, which quickly attracted attention online and gained traffic, with more and more people following them.
Because Chen Jincheng and Er Shi Xing Chen have always had high traffic, this is also something that attracts attention.
After all, it's bound to attract attention when an MCN company owns its own building.
Especially for those MCN companies, it's something they simply can't even dream of.
Moreover, just as Chen Jincheng had expected, the news about the Second Star Building went viral on Douyin simply by having its artists post videos, and within half a day, everyone knew about it.
People in Linhai City, in particular, were exposed to the related videos through online sharing.
Lin Chengnan, a taxi driver, saw the video. So, when a passenger passed by Century City Central Road, he subconsciously glanced at the Second Star Building.
Seriously, the Second Star Tower is very prominent when you walk from the center of Century City Road; it's impossible not to see it.
Just as I glanced at it, I suddenly heard the surprised voices of the two female passengers behind me.
"It's the Second Star Building."
"I just saw it on Douyin when I came out, I didn't expect to see it now, so it's here."
"Chen Jincheng is truly remarkable!"
"Yes, she started as an internet celebrity and now she's even bought a building for her company."
"..."
...
After lunch.
Looking down from his office, Chen Jincheng saw a large number of people filming videos outside the Second Star Building. These people were clearly either internet celebrities trying to ride the wave of popularity or just ordinary passersby.
Just like the Three Sheep in the past life, once the building's signboard was put up, more and more internet celebrities came to ride the wave of popularity. Now, simply shooting a video of the Second Starry Sky Building can generate a lot of traffic and buzz.
As one group of people leaves after taking photos, another group arrives; this situation is likely to continue for some time.
Thinking about it, Chen Jincheng went to the bookshelf, pressed a button on it, and the bookshelf opened, revealing the door behind it.
He opened the door and went inside, where he saw that Cencen and Ximeng had already changed their clothes.
This satisfied him.
To deplete my physical strength, I need to push myself to the absolute limit. One night of intense exercise wasn't enough; I need to continue this intensely today.
Xi Meng immediately stepped forward in a sweet voice: "Boss, take a look, these are 6 new *fun secretary outfits designed by the studio. Hurry up and try them out to see if they're easy to tear."
These words left Cen Ning and the other girls speechless as they looked at Xi Meng.
They genuinely believed this woman was the boss's lackey, dragging them together in broad daylight.
"Boss, are you really alright?" Sun Yizhu looked at him with some concern, after all, she could really see that her boss looked a bit haggard.
After all, the human body isn't made of iron. Even if the boss is physically strong, it's still a 1v6 all night long.
Now they're coming again; even an iron body can't handle it.
"How dare you question your boss's abilities." Chen Jincheng snorted coldly at the girl and walked directly towards her. He'd start with her today.
... (2000 words deleted) ...
[Congratulations! You have used one Constitution point. Your Constitution has increased!]
It wasn't until late at night that Chen Jincheng received a game notification, and he breathed a sigh of relief as he felt a surge of warmth within his body and his body rapidly recover.
It's really not easy to consume even a little bit of constitution points these days.
With his physical strength restored, his energy returned, and soon, a series of soft moans filled the room.
...
The next day, Chen Jincheng finished washing up in his room before coming out, as did Ximeng and Cencen. After they all came out, Ximeng closed the door and then had the bookshelf close again.
Looking at the bookshelf, Cencen and Sophie looked truly resentful.
Such facilities used to be seen only in television and movies, used to torture people, but now they are seeing them in reality, and they are still the victims.
The boss is really good at playing games; they've all gotten on the wrong side of the game.
Just then, a knock sounded at the door, and Sister Hong hurriedly came in. When she saw the six girls in the office, she was clearly taken aback. Why were these girls in the boss's office so early?
Chen Jincheng looked at the girls nonchalantly and said, "You guys go back and think about what I said. Then you'll know what to do next."
Cencen and the others were a little confused. Had he said anything?
absolutely not.
However, they also understood that this was what the boss was saying to Sister Hong, probably to tell Sister Hong that there was nothing between him and them, and that they had all been called over early in the morning to discuss matters.
Seriously, the boss is good at playing around, but he's not serious about admitting anything. If he ever dares to admit even a little bit, they'd be willing to marry him.
Now that the boss had said this in front of Sister Hong, they could only respond and leave the boss's office.
When I go out, my legs always feel a little weak.
Seriously, I'm speechless. Shouldn't it be the boss whose legs are about to give way?
Why them of all?
Chen Jincheng also looked at Sister Hong and asked, "Sister Hong, it must be something important so early in the morning, right?"
Sister Hong hurriedly said, "Boss, haven't you seen today's Douyin trending topics list? I feel something's not right, it seems like Douyin is targeting us."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jincheng immediately took out his phone and opened the Douyin trending list. When he saw the number one trending topic, he frowned and said, "Sister Hong, I think you're right. This is a covert targeting."
Although Dou Yin did this very secretly, he was no ordinary person. He knew some trends and was aware of Dou Yin's methods in the other world, so he could easily see through it at a glance.
Sister Hong frowned and said, "Douyin and Kuaishou are fighting to the death. Aren't they afraid of upsetting you?"
Chen Jincheng explained, "There is only one possibility: they are aware that we cannot see it, or they have already found a way to deal with chopsticks, such as having copied other people's algorithms."
If that's the case, this point in time is much earlier than in another world, something must have happened.
But if that happens, it might cause Chopsticks to be unable to cope in advance, or Chopsticks might not be able to open champagne and go public halfway through like in his previous life. In that case, where would he get the chance to swallow the dragon?
Thinking of this, Chen Jincheng said to Sister Hong, "Sister Hong, go and get some of the products that the other party is promoting, and also get some of the products that other big internet celebrities are promoting in their videos, and then send them for testing."
Regardless, Douyin's approach to video e-commerce is like that of someone from another world—somewhat driven by short-sighted profit-seeking.
If the collapse of another video-based e-commerce platform in another world were to occur earlier, it would definitely cause a major problem for the platform and create a ripple effect.
Tencent Video will definitely seize the opportunity and will try to suppress Douyin.
Only in this way could Douyin be put in crisis, and Kuaishou was then in a hurry to raise funds to deal with Douyin.
This is the right way, and only then will he have a chance to reap the benefits.
