Why are you all looking at me like that?
Ever since Li Shuang and Zhou Xiaoxiao entered the room, they have been staring at Ling Yi.
"You look good!" Zhou Xiaoxiao blurted out.
"Um, I mean, you're really beautiful."
"You really are good-looking, like Little White."
Li Shuang used two fingers to pinch Zhou Xiaoxiao's mouth shut.
"Shut up, you!"
"You're such a grown man, and you still can't speak properly."
Zhou Xiaoxiao slapped Li Shuang's hand away and muttered, "They're not that big to begin with!"
"Ahem!" Li Shuang coughed.
Zhou Xiaoxiao meant to ask, "How did you suddenly become so beautiful overnight?"
Ling Yi looked at the couple with a strange expression.
The relationship between these two is really strange!
Best friends? That doesn't seem quite right; Zhou Xiaoxiao is too clingy to Li Shuang.
Whose best friend is this clingy?
An improper relationship? It doesn't seem like it at all.
The two exchanged uninterrupted glances.
On the contrary, they seem more like, well, mother and daughter?
Ling Yi's eyes lit up. If it was a mother and daughter, that would make sense.
Right? Whose mother is the same age as her daughter?
Li Shuang and Zhou Xiaoxiao are both twenty-two years old this year.
But they are definitely mother and daughter; the more you look at them, the more they resemble each other.
"Boss, hello, Boss Ling?" Seeing that Ling Yi didn't respond for a while, Zhou Xiaoxiao came over and waved her little hand in front of Ling Yi's eyes.
"I used a beauty filter today!" Ling Yi said casually.
"Beauty filter? What's that? Is it a skincare product? Can we use it? Are beauty filter skincare products expensive? I've never heard of it!"
That little mouth of hers keeps chattering away, never stopping.
"Stop, don't ask. If you do, it's a secret, no explanation."
Did the beauty filter function on mobile phones not have been developed by then?
It must have been developed.
But I've forgotten when it became widespread.
Seriously, who invented the beauty filter? It's completely broken the rules of the media industry.
Previously, things like live streaming and recording videos were common.
They must be real beauties and real handsome men.
From now on, with beauty filters on, Ghost.
Zhou Xiaoxiao was completely baffled by Ling Yi's revelation of a secret.
"Boss, you..."
"Alright, Xiaoxiao, stop making a fuss, or you'll be staying home from now on, and I'll never take you out again." Li Shuang patted her forehead.
Zheng Se then asked Ling Yi, "Boss, what are the plans for today?"
"Hmm, let's register a company first," Ling Yi said after thinking for a moment.
In any case, a legitimate company is still very necessary.
Collaborating with Liu Manyun is collaborating with Liu Manyun.
The purpose of the cooperation was not for cooperation itself, but to establish a relationship with Liu Manyun to facilitate Fanbao Points.
He himself needs to have a legitimate business of his own.
Li Shuang took out a small notebook from somewhere and began to take notes seriously.
Ling Yi nodded in agreement.
Regardless of how you look at it, Li Shuang's work ethic deserves praise.
Now look at Zhou Xiaoxiao!
Huh? Where's Zhou Xiaoxiao?
Oh, it went to the bathroom. Could it be that it went to find some kind of beauty filter?
Forget it, I can't be bothered with her.
"Boss, what type of business does the company primarily operate in?"
"Technology!" Ling Yi said after thinking for a moment.
"What was your company's first product? Do you have any plans for it now?" Li Shuang asked again.
Looking at Zhou Xiaoxiao, who had reappeared from the bathroom.
Ling Yi laughed and said, "Let's call the first product 'Beauty Filter'!"
"Is beauty filters a technological product?"
"We'll talk about that later. You guys go and take care of the company's paperwork first."
"Someone will handle the procedures for you; you just need to contact the relevant departments."
Li Wen had no suspicions.
Nod and take notes carefully.
"Also, please keep an eye on accommodations for me; I can't keep living in hotels."
"Boss, where did you used to live?" Zhou Xiaoxiao asked.
Did Ling Yi not have a place to live before?
Ling Yi completely ignored her.
He continued, "The budget for the house is around ten million. The type and style of decoration don't matter, as long as we can move in as soon as possible."
"Good!"
"Alright, then you can go ahead and get busy!"
"By the way, I'll transfer 100,000 yuan to you later as event funds, to cover the expenses you incurred helping me during this period."
Zhou Xiaoxiao's eyes widened. "Wow, they're giving us 100,000 just like that?"
Li Wen corrected him, "Don't talk nonsense. It's not a gift; this is operating capital. Every penny must be used for the company's operations."
"A receipt is required as proof."
" Zhou Xiaoxiao, this is my last warning to you. Don't say things you shouldn't. If you don't listen, don't come out with me anymore."
"I understand!" Seeing that Li Wen was angry, Zhou Xiaoxiao shrank back.
"Boss, we'll be going now," Li Wen said to Ling Yi.
"Okay, go ahead. If anything comes up, call my cell phone."
After Li Wen dragged Zhou Xiaoxiao away...
Ling Yi finally regained his composure.
" Fanbao, could you help handle the company's data workflow?"
[receive.]
"Can you add a beauty filter?"
[Yes, but only for soft-format printing!]
Ling Yi asked curiously, "Does this not require any Fanbao Points?"
[Beauty filters are a mature technology in this world; I simply adopted it and then optimized and upgraded it.]
"Won't this thing cause any copyright disputes?"
Rest assured, now that I've done it, I will definitely not leave any trouble behind!
Hearing Fanbao's cool voice, Ling Yi inexplicably imagined a person with a modified brush head hairstyle.
She has long legs and a cool, sophisticated look, dressed in a dark blue cesium-plated suit.
[Furthermore, the beauty filter I upgraded is at least thirty years ahead of its time, so there are naturally no copyright issues.]
Okay, as long as it's reliable.
Ling Yi stood up, put on his coat, and walked out of the room.
"It's time to complete the mission."
However, this task is both simple and difficult.
The most important thing is timing.
You can't just rush up to them and say, "Let's get intimate."
That would be too presumptuous.
"Forget it, let's wait until we see them. There will always be opportunities."
Ling Yi left the hotel Liuliu strolled towards the Heavenly Fortune Building.
It wasn't far to begin with; it only took less than five minutes to get there.
Just as he reached the entrance, he encountered someone who made Ling Yi feel somewhat disgusted.
Liu Yunfeng.
That is, the biggest shark in the Wen Xue Pond.
However, Liu Yunfeng's face was extremely ugly at this moment.
It seems like something unpleasant just happened.
Upon seeing Ling Yi, Liu Yunfeng taken aback at first, then grinned maliciously and walked towards Ling Yi.
[ Liu Yunfeng develops strong hostility towards the host, automatically activating Combat Mode) ]
Suddenly, Fanbao's voice echoed in Ling Yi's mind.
At the same time, a line of red subtitles appeared in front of Ling Yi's eyes.
But unlike before, the Fanbao window interface is no longer available this time.
Instead, only red subtitles are displayed.
This reduces some of the visual interference.
[ Liu Yunfeng will punch you in 1.5 seconds. Please prepare to defend.]
[Lean your body 15 degrees to the left.]
Ling Yi was a tiny bit slower, and the angle of his tilt wasn't even fifteen degrees.
Therefore, Liu Yunfeng's punch almost grazed Ling Yi's ear.
This completely stunned Ling Yi.
What the hell? Is this guy crazy? He just comes up and starts hitting people?
"Go on, you're gone now, look at my faint sadness."
