Chapter 389: Chapter 189: The Rainbow-Colored Exclamation Mark_2
"Since you’ve already called them goddesses, I don’t think I need to introduce them again, right?"
Hua Suisui smiled and winked at Zhou Wang.
"Yeah, no need to introduce... Oh, by the way, I’ve already ordered the dishes. Do you want to add anything?"
Zhou Wang waved at Xiao An, who was standing by in the private room, indicating for her to bring the menu back over.
"Wow, you’ve ordered so much already. I feel like we might not even finish it..."
Originally, Hua Suisui and Endme genuinely wanted to see if there was anything else they could add. After all, thanks to Wang Xiaoxiao’s earlier bragging, they were quite looking forward to this so-called Black Pearl Three-Diamond Restaurant.
Then they saw the pad showing Zhou Wang had already ordered over a dozen dishes at once, including almost all the signature dishes. They felt their actions were a bit redundant...
"Won’t this be too wasteful?" Endme was a bit worried.
"I haven’t eaten much Zhe Province cuisine, and I saw there were many specialties here, so I ordered more. No worries, we can pack up the leftovers, and I’ll take them home as a midnight snack."
Zhou Wang smiled.
The private room in the Golden Sands Hall actually followed a meal pairing system, providing a pre-menu at about a thousand per person. But after looking over it, Zhou Wang felt it offered too few signature dishes, so he ultimately chose to order himself, even if it ended up being more expensive...
Given that the desire for food is one of the easiest desires to satisfy, Zhou Wang never skimped on it as long as he could afford it.
Even in his poorest times, he would cook instant noodles rather than just pour boiling water over them.
"Then we won’t add anything. This is plenty."
Hua Suisui quickly shook her head.
"Would you like some wine?"
At this moment, Zhou Wang asked the three girls.
"I’m fine with it~" Hua Suisui raised her hand first, looking quite cheerful.
After a slight hesitation, Endme said, "I can’t drink white liquor, but I can have a bit of the others..."
"I’ll skip the drinks."
Facing Zhou Wang’s glance, Wang Xiaoxiao shook her head and couldn’t help but advise, "Xixi, Suisui, are you sure you want to drink? Isn’t there a company meeting tomorrow that could be affected?"
"Anyway, we’ve been left out of the program performances, so at most we’re just walking the red carpet. We’re just accompanying the meeting, no big deal!"
Hua Suisui seemed unbothered, chuckling.
"I just joined Wuyou, so no program would include me anyway. I’m okay with it too..."
Endme shook her head indifferently.
"What is the company meeting?"
Zhou Wang interjected curiously.
"The day after tomorrow is Wuyou Night. The company informed all the influencers eligible for the grand event to have a meeting at the office tomorrow. Since it’s an internal meeting, we call it a ’closed-door meeting’..."
Facing Zhou Wang’s inquiry, Hua Suisui explained in detail.
After a moment, Zhou Wang understood.
Wuyou Night, as Wuyou Media’s annual gala, had amassed great influence after several successive events. Besides Douyin’s live broadcast, even major regional media like Zhe Province TV would simulcast it.
In 2023, the accumulated online views for Wuyou Night broke 2 billion...
Just like various galas in the entertainment industry, Wuyou Night was also a valuable opportunity for influencers to expand their influence and increase their visibility.
In some senses, influencers needed this explosive exposure even more, as their "artistic life" was often more fleeting...
Theoretically, the Wuyou Night series of events spanned five days, but the highlight was concentrated on the opening day.
To put it straightforwardly, the highlight lay in the "Wuyou Gala" that evening, while other things like "red carpet catwalk," "trend market," and "fan meeting" were additional segments.
The Wuyou Gala lasted from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., akin to a major joint gala involving numerous top influencers, with its impact in the MCN world comparable to the "New Year’s Eve Gala."
With the gala naturally came the program list, and tomorrow’s closed-door meeting at Wuyou Media Company headquarters could be seen as the rehearsal and finalization of the program lineup.
"We don’t stand a chance at all. Half the slots are taken by influencers with ten million followers, plus washed-up celebrities like Zhang Dada, Xiao Zhangwei, Wu Kequn, Liu Genghong, and there are special guests too... With just over 20 programs, we’re not even in the running as substitutes."
Hua Suisui counted on her fingers as she explained to Zhou Wang.
Zhou Wang understood why, given such fierce competition, people like Hua Suisui and Endme couldn’t even get a performance slot.
"But isn’t there still a chance? I heard from President Zheng that there are two floating slots yet to be confirmed. The company executives will finalize the list after tomorrow’s closed-door meeting..."
Wang Xiaoxiao had a different opinion, clearly hoping to strive for a spot.
"President Zheng?"
"The VP in charge of managing the company’s planning department..."
Hearing Zhou Wang’s instinctive question, Hua Suisui answered in a small voice.
Zhou Wang replied with an "Oh," realizing why he had no impression of it.
The system provided him with the shareholder list, but the other executives, when it came down to it, were just higher-level employees, so the details didn’t include them...
"Um, Zhou... Zhou Wang, right? I’ll pass on the drinks, if that’s okay?"
Wang Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered something and quickly told Zhou Wang.
