Chapter 107 I feel like I’m okay again [Please subscribe! ]
A little after nine in the morning on June 6th.
In the large office of Spark Media headquarters, Wang Chengguang, who was helping Wu Xiaowei to realize her life, heard the phone ring. He picked it up and saw that the caller was Zhong Xiaoqin...
Half an hour later, he redialed the number amid Xiaowei's resentful glare.
The new clothes became ragged and mottled again.
Gu Jingjing is labeled as the nation's best girlfriend and the country's number one car model. Even if many people in society see through it but don't say anything, they themselves cannot be complacent.
You have to stick to your own line and talk about some things when you get home.
Xiao Wei is different. As everyone knows, she is his girlfriend. It is natural for her to play the role of secretary and transfer hot money from import and export trade to the secretary.
The call was connected, and Zhong Xiaoqin on the other end quickly greeted, "Good morning, Mr. Wang. I'm calling you to ask if Yang Zixi from the company is seriously injured? Is she disfigured?"
"We also found out about that Weibo post after we returned to school yesterday. We were really scared..."
"Those female merchants are too scary... How dare they be so cruel?"
Wang Chengguang laughed and said, "Those are just scary to look at. They are just superficial injuries. Forensic appraisals don't even qualify them as minor injuries."
"Those who dare to frequently use gutter oil and spoiled food ingredients to cheat others are not too stupid."
"Look at the bright side. Yang Zixi's fans have now grown from over 9 to over 70. And just today, the business department has already connected with a new business."
"There is a restaurant that is willing to spend 20 yuan to invite Yang Zixi to their restaurant for free food and drinks. All they need is for her to post the restaurant's name on Weibo afterwards. The restaurant also promised that all netizens are welcome to dine at their restaurant at any time, and they will hire anyone to test the quality of the food."
“You can also visit the kitchen…”
Zhong Xiaoqin was stunned. "You can earn 20 yuan just like that? This is too outrageous... It's worth getting beaten up for that much money."
“These restaurants reacted too quickly.”
Zhong Xiaoqin's family is well off. Just like before Wang Chengguang traveled through time, he drove a sports car alone in the 20s and made six or seven thousand yuan a month, which was still not as much as his retired parents' pension.
The girl's parents are both retired working adults from Shanghai government agencies, and they receive a stable pension every month. Around 2019, their pension in Shanghai must have been far higher than that of retired teachers in small counties, and they even have a big house.
Even so, getting beaten up can earn 20 yuan, and this is still a new business...
Wang Chengguang explained with a smile, "It's normal. Yang Zixi is very popular now. She became famous by helping netizens seek justice with the help of health and police departments."
"The more popular she is, the more people will want to take advantage of her. The central bank spends hundreds of millions of yuan on advertising bids every year."
“When an internet celebrity is at the peak of his popularity, his first promotion and sales will also be valuable.”
"If you and Gu Jia are scared, call a few male classmates to help you when you look for the ghost scale."
"By the way, your operation this time is still different from Yang Zixi's. Whether Yang Zixi takes this business or not, including what she will take in the future, she will eat the meat in private and not publicize it to the public."
"You guys are going to spread the word..."
Wang Chengguang signed Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin in order to create the concept that ordinary netizens can make a lot of money once they become famous, adding fuel to the fire of the Xinghuo Weibo platform.
In the past, starting with Wu Di and Lin Xia, and now with Yang Zixi, the matching and profit sharing of various commercial performance quotations have never been made public.
The inside eats meat without showing off.
The openness of Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin is similar to when, after a ghost scale inspection, a business comes to them, such as a supermarket giving a certain amount of money and welcoming Gu Jia to buy things, and there is no problem in inspecting their scales at will.
At this time, Gu Jia would continue to post on Weibo, revealing to the entire network that the merchant gave her the money to check the scale, and expressed that she was confused and bewildered about the weighing process that cost tens of thousands of yuan, and didn't know whether she should accept the offer.
This kind of straightforward and frank money transaction that is shown to the whole network...
The follow-up will definitely be a real transaction and you will really get the money.
All the merchants who are connected will receive the script. As long as you are a conscientious merchant and do not cheat people, this is a win-win situation.
The whole network witnessed and saw that after Gu Jia suffered a loss due to the ghost scale, she was able to earn tens of thousands of RMB in other places where she had the confidence to show off that she was a conscientious merchant, such as in supermarkets that allowed the whole network to inspect them.
For a world like 2008, where monthly salaries were often just yuan or less, this is a new round of dimensionality reduction attacks.
Isn't she just a little internet celebrity? A freshman in college, is this okay? How can she make so much money? ?
Once this example comes out, the Xinghuo platform will continue to explode with another wave of people who want to make money and get rich, rushing in from outside the platform to register.
The topic will break the circle again.
Of course, when the time comes, let Gu Jingjing and Wang Manni show off as well, for example, if someone asks them, the earliest internet celebrities, whether they have made money and how much they have made...
Gu Jingjing would answer directly that the two sisters earned 4 million yuan by appearing on behalf of Volkswagen at the seven-day auto show in April. Volkswagen also @互動, saying that super car companies are not short of money and they cannot let the best national girlfriend help Volkswagen promote its models for free.
With all this, it would be unscientific if the number of registered users of Xinghuo Weibo, which has 6000 million, does not reach 7000 million. If there are a few more profitable players from the private sector and the platform continues to promote it, 8000 million users will be within reach.
Then it will be a winner-takes-all situation, with no room for Zhalang, Sohu and Tencent to catch up.
From planning the Weibo post to pushing it online, Wang Chengguang planned the copywriting scripts and the eye-catching topics that kept exploding one after another, so much so that he couldn't stop. Even with the protection of his Olympic gold medal, he could plan and do things quietly.
There is no need to consider too much interference and attacks from the capital side.
It was really because of the right timing and location that everything went so smoothly.
Otherwise, he has always rejected all venture capital and capital. Do you think North Americans will not try the reincarnation routine of the mud truck charge? As for the operation, framing, setting up, etc. to get your platform blocked...
In this world after traveling through time, Wang Chengguang also has many relatives.
All I can say is that Olympic protection can achieve twice the result with half the effort!!
After he encouraged Zhong Xiaoqin and ended the call, Wu Xiaowei came out of the built-in small suite and complained speechlessly, "You are not short of money now, but you can't tear your clothes every day."
"Such a waste."
Wang Chengguang smiled awkwardly, "Be careful next time."
Just then, there was another knock on the door. After he called out "Come in", Gu Jingjing unlocked the door with her key and pushed it open. That's right, she was experiencing the job of a secretary.
There must be someone guarding the door.
Gu Jingjing came in and explained, "Brother Wang, one of our company's internet celebrities has had a new accident. It's Lan Weiwei, a childhood friend of Sister Taozi."
"She originally signed an advertisement with Coco Tree, a 30 yuan contract, but during the filming she found that the scale required was too large and the lines were a bit too out of line, so she didn't want to shoot anymore..."
"But there is a penalty in the contract. For a 30 yuan advertisement, the penalty is 50 yuan."
While explaining, she took out her phone and handed it over, "This is the Coconut Tree advertisement from 06. Lan Weiwei's advertisement is even more outrageous than this one..."
Wang Chengguang took the phone and watched a video. It was the Coconut Tree advertisement from two years ago. He took a deep breath after watching it for a while. "This is such a tacky copywriting. It's a rip-off." The famous Coconut Tree and Lan Weiwei are actually in dispute? Even in the epidemic era before the time travel, Coconut Tree... it's hard to describe.
The advertisement displayed on the mobile phone at this moment is three beautiful girls, each showing half of their conscience, jumping around and shouting the slogan "fair and tender skin, and attractive curves".
You can almost see the grapes.
He was thinking about Lan Weiwei's figure... The advertisements comparing her to others were even more outrageous than the ones on the phone?!
Wang Chengguang complained, "Is there something wrong with the advertising contract? Is there some kind of wording trap? Or was there no communication in advance?"
He now has two steamed bun players, one big and one small, in his family. After a little thought, he is still a little angry about Lan Weiwei starring in the Coco Tree commercial.
Gu Jingjing nodded, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Yes, there is a wording trap in the advertising contract. It is vague and not explained clearly. It is a bit like the Spring and Autumn style of writing."
"We started cooperating and filming, and they used another set of words to explain it..."
"Isn't it time for our group to recruit a full legal department? In the past, all kinds of contracts were drafted by familiar law firms. Although we have a lot of cooperation, they are not dedicated to serving us. Why is this happening now?"
The transition from a makeshift team to a formal one was a step-by-step process. When the first contract came out, Wang Chengguang found a law firm, put forward his requirements, and a professional lawyer drafted it.
That's not to say it's not possible.
But embarrassments can also happen, like Lan Weiwei’s contract now… There are cases where there are wording traps and the right of interpretation belongs to Coco Tree when the explanation is unclear.
Go find the lawyer that Xinghuo hired to help? The other party's business was over after the contract was completed.
It's not impossible to go find someone, Xinghuo's media power can even easily influence the other party's career, but it does add a lot of troublesome procedures.
Wang Chengguang rubbed his temple and said, "Let's set up a legal department and hire a lawyer. Even if we have to fight with Coconut Tree over a contract and the lawsuit takes a year or two and costs millions more, we can't let them take advantage."
Ever since Lan Weiwei joined Xinghuo, Wang Chengguang took two sets of photos for her, and then he never paid any attention to her again, nor did he take photos for her anymore, because Lan Weiwei's figure was not good and it was too easy to embarrass herself when taking photos.
But after all, he is an internet celebrity who is signed with Xinghuo and Coconut Tree. This is not a question of money. That group is a weird one. It became one of the top 90 companies in China in the s.
It once ranked first in sales in the beverage industry and even became the beverage for state banquets.
In the last century, Coco Tree shot commercials in a style similar to “Hi, your Extra”, which was very pure and enjoyable to watch.
It was from 2006 that we started to make crazy attempts to test the waters.
Until the 21s, he was repeatedly fined by relevant departments, but he just refused to change!
More than a decade later, you can even complain that Coco Tree has always been aesthetically pleasing and has never deviated from the truth, but it’s disgusting that such a bad thing happened to Xinghuo.
Gu Jingjing nodded, "Then I'll go do the work?"
Wang Chengguang asked curiously, "How many fans does Lan Weiwei have now?"
Gu Jingjing smiled with a bit of jealousy, "She has always been on the fitness and bodybuilding route, and there is no good copywriting or hot spots to promote her. It was only after the Weibo explosion that she occasionally appeared in the recommended position on the homepage, and easily attracted more than 40 fans."
"Hua Zi, a male internet celebrity who follows the same path as her, has only a few hundred thousand fans. Hua Zi is still helping high school seniors apply for college, guiding them on how to choose their majors, and understanding the current employment situation of their majors. He is a hard-working person like Yang Zixi and Shi Xiaomeng."
Wang Chengguang, “…”
He was too powerless to complain. Several times when the homepage recommended resources, such as those of Shi Xiaomeng, Hua Zi, Wu Di, including Yang Zixi, Yang Xiaoyun, Yang Tao, Shen Bing and others, flashed by.
Xinghuo Weibo has been online for two or three months in public beta, and has signed up dozens of internet celebrities, who will definitely be lining up to get this resource.
What can he say? Blame the male netizens for being too straight? If you don’t look at the face, nine and a half out of ten straight men in this world will vote for Lan Weiwei with both hands and feet.
Judging from her face, Lan Weiwei is also a little beauty.
Gu Jingjing asked curiously, "These days, some sports and exercise brands have approached her, paying tens of thousands of yuan for promotion or hundreds of thousands of yuan for advertising, which is not a small amount."
"Her fan base is real after all. I think that using this advertising dispute lawsuit as a pretext, can there be a wave of new related copywriting?"
Wang Chengguang nodded, "Of course it can be hyped up. To put it bluntly, this is a scam contract issue. Countless workers may have encountered it in the workplace and have been scammed."
"This is just a small hype to give Lan Weiwei a new hot spot, but it may not have a big effect."
Aren’t all kinds of unfair terms, cheating agreements, and contracts in the workplace happening all day and night? If you encounter all kinds of weird agencies when looking for a job, including rental agencies, second-hand landlords...
There are so many that I can’t count them all.
Gu Jingjing was amused. "That's fine. Otherwise, the company will just cover the cost for her. She would rather spend millions on a lawsuit than fulfill the contract. I feel like you're at a disadvantage."
Wang Chengguang, “…”
He was speechless again.
Wu Xiaowei came over and said, "You can't be too fussy, right? I know that doing this will make Brother Guang lose, but Lan Weiwei is Sister Taozi's best friend after all."
"It's good to help her. It was the lawyer we hired who gave the nod in the beginning that made the internet celebrity sign the contract."
"If I help Lan Weiwei this time, can it also help the company further stabilize people's hearts?"
Wang Chengguang smiled and said, "Okay, it's just a small matter. I'll hype it up with Gu Jia and Zhong Xiaoqin's tricks, make a few people famous, and then explode the platform and stabilize the morale of the troops."
Gu Jingjing nodded and went out to do her work. Xiaowei smiled and said, "I'll ask for Sister Taozi to take care of her good sister. You've suffered a loss, so just come over."
"After taking a break, I feel like I'm back to normal!"
………………
About the same time.
Shanghu, Zhong Xiaoqin's home.
Gu Jia, Zhong Xiaoqin, and Zhong's parents took turns running to different stalls or supermarkets and bought more than a dozen large watermelons to bring home.
Looking at the melons filling the living room, Gu Jia took out two electronic scales that had been professionally calibrated by the district measurement unit and took a deep breath. "Come on, have you all remembered the weight and the money?"
"Weigh them again one by one to see how many ghost scales there are."
After taking turns to weigh the watermelons, Gu Jia was stunned. Among the dozen large watermelons, four were weighed by the wrong scale, each weighing 1 to 2 kilograms less than when purchased.
Mr. Zhong, who always had the image of a good guy, was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "I'll go find him. I often buy things in that supermarket. Why is there 2 kilograms missing from a watermelon?"
"There's not much money, this is so annoying!! This is so annoying!"
(ps: I suddenly realized that I was about to get the badge of habitual outburst. I struggled hard again today and wrote 12,000 words a day again. Three more chapters. Please subscribe!)
