Chapter 12: Good Family Man
When Qin Qi got up, Kong Nanzhu had already prepared breakfast and was practicing yoga on the balcony.
Kong Nanzhu is a very good cook and she can make breakfast in many different ways. Knowing that Qin Qi needs to control his weight, she wrapped assorted vegetables in bean skin to make vegetable rolls, which are low-fat and healthy. She also grilled a chicken breast, made multi-grain soy milk, and steamed some exquisite multi-grain snacks.
Qin Qi is a picky eater. He only eats freshly steamed noodles and will not eat those that are left overnight and then reheated.
These snacks are the most labor-intensive.
During the meal, Kong Nanzhu yawned four or five times.
"What time did you get up?"
Qin Qi has the habit of sleeping in on his days off, but he didn't get up too late today, it's not even half past eight yet.
"About half past six." Kong Nanzhu stood up and prepared to wash the dishes.
Kong Nanzhu was afraid that the alarm would wake Qin Qi up, so she used her mind to wake herself up. You know, she went to bed late at night because of the live broadcast, and it was common for her to sleep until nine or ten in the morning.
Qin Qi took the bowl from her hand and said, "Go back and have some sleep. I'll ask Auntie to cook for me next time. You don't have to get up early to cook for me."
Kong Nanzhu felt sweet in her heart, "You feel sorry for me?"
Qin Qi was stunned for a moment, his expression was still indifferent and distant, noble and cold, like someone who walked out of a cartoon, but there was a hint of awkwardness in his eyes, "If you don't get enough sleep, you will become ugly."
Kong Nanzhu smiled and said, "But, I am your wife, I am willing to take care of you."
Hearing this, Qin Qi's brows showed a hint of tenderness. Perhaps even he himself did not realize how doting his tone was . "Just take care of yourself."
Qin Qi was 1.87 meters tall, and he had to bend over while standing in front of the sink after washing his face. Looking at this scene, Kong Nanzhu suddenly felt that they were getting married and living together. He took out his cell phone and took a picture of Qin Qi's back.
The only person she shared with was Xu Qingqing.
Wow, I didn't expect that the movie emperor is also a good family man, not bad, it turns out that it is better to use a husband who has been trained since childhood.
From childhood | teaching?
Qin Qi had never done these before.
"Who are you talking to?"
Qin Qi suddenly turned around and saw Kong Nanzhu holding his phone, chatting enthusiastically with Xu Qingqing with his fingers flying, a happy smile on his face.
Having just secretly taken a photo of someone, Kong Nanzhu felt guilty and locked the screen immediately. "Nothing, I was just reading the comments from my fans on Weibo."
Speaking of Weibo.
"Is there someone who is very active under your Weibo recently? It's a man ." Kong Nanzhu immediately realized who he was talking about.
"Are you talking about the guy named Xi Chuang Zhu?"
"Um."
Hearing her say the username so quickly, Qin Qi's handsome brows slightly frowned, "Do you have many male fans in your live broadcast room?"
"Almost nothing. This guy is probably a guy with little to do and a lot of money, who kills his time by watching live broadcasts."
Qin Qi put the bowl into the cupboard, wiped the water stains on the countertop very considerately, and replaced the trash bag for the trash can.
However, while sorting out these things, what he was thinking about was how to prevent this Xi Chuang Zhu from appearing again.
Qin Qi was in his senior year and was in internship. Originally, he had no courses, but because he had been filming on the set every year before, he had vacancies in many courses.
Whenever he has a day off, he will seize the opportunity to go back to school to attend more classes and absorb the experience of veteran teachers to enrich himself. He is down-to-earth and studious, which is one of the reasons why Qin Qi has an excellent reputation in the circle in recent years.
Kong Nanzhu made an appointment with the brand's PR to discuss promotional cooperation for the new season.
This skin care product is an emerging domestic brand in recent years, and it has been promoted vigorously on major platforms. Kong Nanzhu was one of the first beauty bloggers to cooperate with them in the early days. Both parties knew each other well, so Kong Nanzhu did not feel very nervous before coming, and did not ask Xu Qingqing to accompany him.
When they met, Kong Nanzhu found out that the PR she was dealing with had been replaced by two ladies she had never seen before. One of them looked like a leader and was a conservative woman in her thirties.
"Old-fashioned" refers to her style. She wears all black from head to toe, and looks like a proud peacock. Before speaking, she always raises her index finger and adjusts her black-framed glasses in a very artificial way.
Even though it's just a glasses frame without lenses.
Black Peacock's attendant was quite polite: "Ms. Kong, judging from the data from the last quarter, the promotion efforts you gave us were not very strong, and the benefits were not very ideal. This is the promotion script we prepared for the new product. I hope you can promote it completely according to our design."
Kong Nanzhu maintained a decent smile, picked up the folder on the table, and only read the first paragraph before frowning.
Kong Nanzhu glanced at the signature on the folder's title page and said, "Ms. Dong, I think..."
Black Peacock interrupted her, "Please call me Amily."
Kong Nanzhu: "...Amily, why didn't Sister Xue, who was supposed to meet with me before, come? I made an agreement with her that I don't accept fixed scripts, and I don't do exaggerated publicity. The words you gave me don't fit my usual live broadcast style, and my fans may not buy it."
Amily's expression changed instantly. She looked superior and said in a very disdainful tone, "Unfortunately, our cooperation may have to end here. The person you mentioned has resigned from our company. I am now the deputy team leader of our public relations department."
She stood up to leave, and her assistant hurriedly began to pack up. Before Kong Nanzhu could respond, Amily said with some contempt, "If it weren't for the fact that you have been cooperating with us for three years, I wouldn't have wasted my time making this trip. I originally intended to directly cut off the cooperation with you. Your ability to bring goods does not meet our requirements for selecting partners."
This woman's attitude is really disgusting. From head to toe, there is nothing likable about her.
Kong Nanzhu frowned slightly, the smile in his eyes faded, and his cold eyes startled the other party's follower.
I didn’t expect that this beautiful woman with a sweet smile and gentle voice actually has another face.
Originally, the little follower wanted to chime in and flatter his leader, but after being glared at by Kong Nanzhu, he consciously shut his mouth.
Kong Nanzhu was furious. When this brand was not yet popular, she was almost the only one who promoted it diligently on the entire Internet. She would write about her trial experience and take photos every week. The brand became famous because of her series of record posts. Now she is going to destroy the bridge after crossing it.
Kong Nanzhu took a deep breath, controlled his urge to get up and leave, and reached out to hold down the data report that the other party wanted to take back.
“I’m sorry, I think there’s a certain amount of information inequality in our communication. I’m not a live streamer, and the contract I signed with your company doesn’t have any sales requirements. What I need to accomplish is a fixed number of Weibo posts and a fixed amount of product exposure time during the live stream. I’m not sure how you define the sales ability you just mentioned.”
Amily didn't seem to have the patience to explain. She forcefully took away her folder, stood up, smoothed the wrinkles on her black suit skirt, and raised her orchid finger. "Without marketing volume, why should we spend money to hire you internet celebrities? Your question is really funny."
Having already walked two steps away, Amily turned back and added, "Oh, by the way, I advise you not to discredit the quality of our products just because the cooperation has ended. Brands are most afraid of bloggers who bite people without thinking. I am reminding you out of kindness so that no one will dare to cooperate with you in the future."
So arrogant!
Five hundred thousand fans is not too many, but not too few either.
Without the support of a team, it is not easy for a person to achieve this level. Kong Nanzhu has always been very proud of her career. She has come to where she is today step by step, and has silently put in so much sweat and stayed up all night, which are all unspeakable bitterness.
If it were other bloggers with the same amount of traffic, they would probably have to turn the table over and fight with this brand to get an explanation.
The little follower was also embarrassed by her leader's humiliating words. She looked as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. It was obvious that she did not agree with Amily's behavior. She nodded hastily at Kong Nanzhu with a slight apology, then trotted after him.
