Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities

Chapter 143 - 137: Today’s Biggest Surprise

Chen Jincheng left Second-Life Star and went straight downstairs to the 6th floor of the Jinmao Building. Walking inside, he arrived in front of a studio.

Yijin Media Studio!

He was completely stunned. Yijin really had given him a surprise. He had mentioned moving his studio over, and he’d actually done it without a word. He’d even moved in right below Second-Life Star.

However, it was just a studio, so the office space wasn’t very large, probably around 200 square meters.

Yijin could now be considered one of his die-hard followers. He was counting on him to rally the clipping groups to help build the "Coastal City’s Most Devoted Lover" persona.

Yijin was the one who had created the group chats for the clipping groups, and the number of members was growing. The "Coastal City’s Most Devoted Lover" IP might actually have a chance of being successfully established.

When that time came, he really wouldn’t mind gifting him a Panamera.

When he entered, the staff of Yijin Studio were cleaning up. They were all surprised to see him come in.

"Boss, the Ancestral Master is here!" someone shouted excitedly toward the back.

After all, they were members of the studio who spent their days editing clips of this very Ancestral Master, so they recognized him at a glance.

"Hello, everyone," Chen Jincheng said with a smile, greeting them, which made them even more excited.

He knew exactly why.

An excellent clip editor had to be a die-hard fan. They spent every day editing clips, searching for the most captivating highlights. To create an emotional connection with new fans, they first had to feel that connection themselves.

Yijin hurried out from an office in the back. "Brother Cheng, I was planning to surprise you! What brings you down here?"

Though he said that, he was actually overjoyed.

This meant that Brother Cheng saw him as a friend, which gave him an immense sense of satisfaction.

"You really did give me a surprise!" Chen Jincheng said with a laugh.

A wide smile spread across Yijin’s face. "Brother Cheng, I booked a restaurant to treat my employees to dinner tonight. Join us! Afterward, we’ll hit the bars!"

"Sure!" Chen Jincheng agreed. He didn’t have much going on today anyway. Remembering they were still filming the Pouty Pose Combo upstairs, he said to Yijin, "My company is shooting a video right now. Want to go up and take a look?"

"Of course!" Yijin beamed. He felt greatly honored by Brother Cheng’s invitation.

Back at Second-Life Star, Chen Jincheng led Yijin directly to the filming room. As soon as they were outside, Yijin saw the flock of beautiful girls and asked in surprise, "Brother Cheng, are these the girls from the car show yesterday?"

"Mhm," Chen Jincheng nodded and led Yijin into the filming room.

Once inside, Yijin stared in astonishment at the room, decorated in shades of pink with light gauze. "Brother Cheng, why is this place decorated like... one of *those* kinds of places?"

"Been to one before?" Chen Jincheng teased.

"How is that possible? I’m a gentleman, just like you!" Yijin immediately reacted as if someone had stepped on his tail.

Chen Jincheng said with a straight face, "I am indeed a gentleman. As for you, I can’t say."

"..." Yijin was fucking speechless.

’Everyone knows what’s up.’

’Brother Cheng, where’s your shame?’

Then, he quickly greeted Sister Hong and Lao Chen.

He had visited during a shoot before, so of course, he knew them.

Just then, another girl walked out of the dressing room. She had changed into a very sexy nightgown, and she gracefully sat in the middle of the bed, deliberately striking an exceptionally provocative pose.

’This is getting even more indecent,’ Yijin thought.

But he knew at a glance that no matter what content they were filming, the design and atmosphere alone were a massive bonus.

When the girl began reciting the lines for the Pouty Pose Combo, he knew Brother Cheng’s new project was going to be another viral hit.

’This environment, the girls’ outfits, this kind of coquettish act... It’s just... It’s so easy to let your imagination run wild.’

He also immediately guessed that Brother Cheng must have gotten the inspiration for this project during the car show livestream earlier today.

Filming the Pouty Pose Combo wasn’t difficult for these "green tea" girls. Each one only took a few minutes. Relying on their ’green tea’ skills, they almost all got it in one take. It took just over two hours to finish filming all the newly recruited girls.

These videos didn’t need a soundtrack or transitions, so no editing was required. They could basically be uploaded as soon as they were filmed.

Afterward, Chen Jincheng took Sister Hong and Yijin to the editing department.

Once the videos were uploaded, Xiaohai, who was in charge of monitoring the data, began tracking the performance of the girls’ uploaded videos with his team.

"Did you have your people post the video?" Chen Jincheng asked Yijin.

Yijin immediately made an "OK" gesture. "Don’t worry, Brother Cheng. I had a video cut and sent it to the clipping groups’ chat. Your Pouty Pose Combo will be a trending topic in no time."

Hearing this, Sister Hong looked at Chen Jincheng scrutinizingly. "Boss, I’m just curious, why did you only have the clipping accounts release behind-the-scenes footage of Ximeng? Are you that optimistic about her?"

She was well aware that among all the girls, Ximeng was the one who had launched an offensive on the boss.

If the boss hadn’t suddenly left, she was afraid Ximeng would have clung to his arm until the end of time, unwilling to let go.

’And what’s more, the boss seems to really fall for this kind of thing.’

Chen Jincheng noticed Sister Hong’s strange look and said awkwardly, "Sister Hong, you don’t think I’m showing favoritism to this girl, or playing by the ’unspoken rules,’ do you?"

’This is a fucking frame-up,’ he thought. ’After all, the girl is genuinely good, and she was an influencer in my past life. Of course I’d pick her for the clipping groups to use for the Pouty Pose Combo warm-up.’

’It’s just a shame. In the other world, this girl probably missed her chance and never got very famous. I can’t even use the Initial Influencer Fame Card on her.’
