Chapter 1280 Good News and Bad News
After there were no movies to shoot, Luoquan's life entered a slow pace.
Every day, she cooked for everyone, live-streamed, and occasionally held a pool party.
When Leon was still in the villa, everyone would definitely not dare to be so presumptuous, but Leon went to shoot the Great Wall, and the only male in the house was Arthur, who was not yet one year old.
However, this kid couldn't even get off the ground. Every day, he either ate or slept. When everyone took a bath, they took his stroller with them. There was nothing to be shy about.
Because there were enough people in the house, Luoquan usually didn't worry about cleaning.
She was responsible for feeding everyone, and others were responsible for cleaning the house.
Of course, not having a movie to shoot doesn't mean that you don't really need to care about any work.
The operation of B station still needs to be controlled.
After nearly half a year of reform and job adjustment, B station cleared many old employees who were doing nothing, and also attracted many young people who were full of vitality and enthusiasm.
But no matter how people change, corruption is a very easy problem within the company.
Even if you change a new boss, you can be cautious and restrained at the beginning.
But as you work for a long time, your mind will gradually become active.
Luo Quan has received several reports from his subordinates and dealt with many people, but this phenomenon still persists.
Or maybe this is human nature, which cannot be eliminated at all. Luo Quan can only find one case and eliminate it.
The good news is that this is the only problem that B station can be called.
When B station was in a bad state before, everything from content to operation to the company was a problem.
But now the cash flow problem has been solved, employees and up masters have no worries about income, and users have no worries about having no content to watch. The biggest contradiction is also solved, and other problems no longer exist.
So, in the eyes of most netizens, B station has returned to the time when everything was competing and full of vitality.
In time, B station may be able to compete with Douyin.
Anyway, the stock price of B station has been rising for a long time. Although the increase in the past few months is not as large as at the beginning of the year, the growth brought by the accumulation of small amounts is still considerable.
Many people have analyzed that in the next two to three years, Bilibili will be a high-quality stock. Just invest boldly and you will definitely lose money.
However, despite the analysis, most of the capital is still in the wait-and-see stage, mainly because of the idiot operation of Bilibili in the past two years. Now they dare not trust Bilibili easily.
Of course, as a long-term and close strategic partner, Penguin is very willing to trust Bilibili led by Luo Quan, and invest hundreds of millions of dollars at a time.
And it only invests and does not participate in any decision-making.
Of course, if it is only this level, it is impossible to impress Luo Quan.
Now Bilibili lacks everything, but not money.
However, Penguin promised that as long as the investment is accepted, the entertainment resources under Penguin can be released to Bilibili for secondary creation.
To be honest, although it was not released before, the up-masters of Bilibili still use whoever's materials they want.
If it does not become popular, it will not cause any disputes. At most, there is a small probability that it will be removed from the shelves by review.
However, the use of uncopyrighted materials for secondary creation is still a violation of the rules. Even though we all know that this is a gray area and not many people are in charge, we still cannot feel completely at ease.
Now that Penguin is willing to relax this restriction, it must be a great thing for the up-masters of Bilibili.
Ghost animals, film and television commentary, and film and television slicing are all very large traffic.
People's time is very precious now. It is too strenuous to watch a 40-50 minute TV series, so these videos that tell the story of an episode in ten minutes are very marketable.
Now that they have the authorization, up-masters can boldly do the commentary of popular dramas. This is actually the promotion of the TV series, which is actually good for Penguin.
Of course, Bilibili will definitely make the most money. After all, Penguin has the most copyrights in the country. It must be a great thing to let it relax.
In addition to Penguin, many capitals have also approached Luoquan to invest, the most famous of which is Gaoling Capital.
Speaking of Gaoling Capital, perhaps few people know it, but the boss of this company has invested in many companies, among which the more famous ones are JD.com, Penguin, Byte, Meituan, Gree, etc.
Now, these are all well-known companies, and they can be regarded as half of China's new era Internet.
However, before these giants grew up, Gaoling Capital had already seen their potential and invested a large amount of money to help these companies overcome difficulties and become bigger and stronger.
Because of its outstanding performance, the boss of Gaoling Capital is also called the stock god of China.
However, some people disdain him, saying that he is just a white glove of Wall Street capital, and his success comes from the strong funds and relationships behind him.
But no matter what, Gaoling Capital is a giant in China's private equity field.
It's just that this giant has not had a good life in recent years. It has lost several projects in a row, with losses of up to tens of billions.
Many netizens joked that they are no longer good, and the stock god is about to become a ghost.
But in the short term, Gaoling Capital is far from going bankrupt, and getting their investment is a good thing for most companies.
This not only means a large amount of liquidity, but also an entry ticket.
Getting the connections of Gaoling Capital is more valuable than getting their money.
So generally these companies go to Gaoling Capital for investment, and those who can get active investment from Gaoling Capital are either big bosses among big bosses, or rising stars that are about to take off.
Luo Quan is not sure which one she is.
If you want to talk about big bosses, she has indeed made a lot of money now, and the company she has is also quite powerful.
But in fact, her grandfather and Mia's grandfather are the real big bosses. Compared with them, her business can only be regarded as a small fight.
So Luo Quan thinks she should belong to the latter, that is, Bilibili has been favored by many people, and they think that this project will take off soon.
But the problem is that since Bilibili is about to take off, why should she give up the benefits to others? Isn't it better to eat well by herself?
So Luo Quan rejected this investment.
No matter whether this Gaoling Capital has a Wall Street background or is a white glove of a big boss.
Anyway, she didn't want to give the cake to others, so no one could grab it.
Her shares in Nikola were coveted by many people before, and some even sent emails to coerce and bribe them, but Luoquan ignored them.
Refusing to invest is not a provocative act, so there was no follow-up to this matter.
Originally, Luoquan was quite worried that she would be retaliated against, such as in business war movies, where big capital sniped in the stock market and forced a good company into bankruptcy by short selling.
But on second thought, no one should be so petty that they would retaliate just because they refused to invest, right?
Besides, even if someone really dared to be so high, Luoquan had enough funds to deal with such a situation, so gradually she didn't take it seriously.
These are some things that happened when managing Bilibili. They sounded mysterious, but they didn't cause any big waves. To describe it in four words, it was stable and improving.
On the contrary, Luoquan's endorsement work has had some minor problems recently.
She originally had two endorsements, one for Chanel and one for Huawei.
The Huawei contract has expired, but it has not been renewed.
Recently, Huawei launched a new processor mobile phone that is completely self-produced, breaking the technological blockade that has lasted for several years. It can be said that the boat has passed through thousands of mountains, and half of the Internet is celebrating.
Taking advantage of this wave of popularity, Huawei invited Huawai to be the spokesperson. The national idol is matched with the national mobile phone. Perfect.
Although Luoquan was also invited to endorse, the endorsement fee was too ordinary, just the treatment of an ordinary top streamer.
Is her status an ordinary top streamer?
The amount of money is secondary, and she is not short of money.
The key is that this respect is a little less, and after signing the contract, she will definitely have to shoot commercials and release advertising songs. Luoquan thinks it is troublesome, so she is too lazy to do it in the end.
However, after this incident, many people on the Internet also joked that Huawei has indeed made a clear route now, inviting Huazai instead of Luoquan, avoiding misunderstandings caused by Luobao's appearance.
Luoquan was angry and funny after hearing it, but it is hard to say whether there is such a consideration.
In short, the endorsement of Huawei is over.
But Chanel signed a full five years, and the new contract just started a few months ago. There are still many years for the two sides to cooperate.
Originally, the relationship between the two sides was very good. When Luo Quan needed to attend important occasions, she could get a beautiful big skirt from Chanel at any time, and she had to be the first in the world to wear it. No one could borrow the skirt before her.
This treatment can satisfy people's vanity.
So Luo Quan also worked hard when shooting commercials. In addition to Chanel's clothes, she basically didn't touch other brands, which reflected the word "dedicated" to the extreme.
However, there was one thing that made her very distressed about the upcoming autumn and winter clothing shooting.
It is said that in order to deepen the development of luxury brands such as Chanel in China, the boss of LV Group will bring his family to China for activities.
The first is to hold a Shanghai Bund Fashion Week, where only luxury goods of LV Group will be on the T stage, and the invited sprays are mainly from China.
Then it is to finalize the candidates for multiple spokespersons.
When this news came out, half of the entertainment industry was boiling.
What is the most important thing for a star?
Some people will say resources, some will say fans, and some will say background.
But in fact, the most important thing is popularity.
As long as you have popularity, you can have all the above.
Signing a contract with the LV Group and becoming the spokesperson for these luxury brands means a steady stream of fashion resources and exposure. At that time, you can go to major fashion shows and award ceremonies abroad, and then market yourself in China. It is very likely that your status will be raised to a higher level out of thin air.
So the fashion week in five days will definitely be full of stars, and the scene will not be much worse than Weibo Night.
As the spokesperson for Chanel, Luo Quan will of course also attend this show, and even walk on the stage.
But if it was just that, it would be fine, but it is said that the fourth son of this boss will also come.
And this fourth son is her die-hard fan, saying that he will give her a big job at this show.
This matter has spread on the Internet. Although it is just a rumor, Luo Quan has received internal information and confirmed that it is true.
The fourth young master didn't know from where that she liked shiny gems, so he specially ordered a crown inlaid with various gems, saying it was a gift for her.
What was the intention of giving her such an expensive gift for no reason? Adults know it in their hearts.
But it was his business to give gifts, and it was Luoquan's business whether to accept them or not.
At that time, she could just refuse to accept them directly, and she wouldn't have to owe favors if there was no contact.
But the key is that this matter has begun to spread on the Internet.
Because Sally participated in the Crazy Horse Show, the LV family showed up in China and let the public know about their existence.
But the highest traffic must be Sally and the third young master.
But after the Crazy Horse Show, the two separated, as if they were going to part ways after using each other.
Unexpectedly, not long after the third brother of this family quieted down, the fourth brother started to make trouble again, and even set his sights on her.
Seeing that his third brother had gained such a big wave of fame thanks to Sally, did he want to replicate it on himself?
Luo Quan couldn't comment on the fourth child's idea, but in his opinion, even if the male in this family was not a playboy, he was not a kind-hearted person.
In layman's terms, they were not good people, so Luo Quan was not willing to deal with such a group of people, even if they were his boss.
The simplest way was not to attend the fashion show, out of sight, out of mind.
Anyway, as long as the advertisement for autumn and winter clothing was filmed, it was fine. It was not necessary to attend any show, and there was no coercion in the contract, so Luo Quan had the right to refuse.
Of course, if she did so, it would definitely cause heated discussions on the Internet, saying that she was afraid, or that she was trying to cover up something.
In short, as long as you don't show up, netizens can come up with any conspiracy theory for you.
So it's better to show up openly, walk the runway according to the pre-arranged procedure, and then leave after the show.
As long as you can still appear more open.
But the problem is, will the fourth childe let her walk the runway quietly?
What if he goes on stage to give a gift halfway through?
Or he could intercept her in advance when she enters the venue.
In short, as long as she appears, she will definitely face such risks.
So Luo Quan has been struggling with this.
Seeing more and more news about this incident on the Internet, Luo Quan's worries have become more serious.
