Chapter 74 The journey back to Beijing begins! [Subscribe]
February 2, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year.
Gu Jingjing's home in a small county town in the south of the Yangtze River.
When Wang Chengguang used his laptop to package the group photos and sent them to the email accounts of Gu Jingjing, Yang Tao and Mile, he smiled and said, "Okay, you can start your journey back to Beijing now."
"You don't have to do embarrassing things like you did when you returned home before New Year's Eve. Just one or two embarrassing things will be enough. For this fire, the three of you should stand together as a league of brokenhearted people and pose as the underdogs. Even if you get drunk and act crazy and get a photo taken of you, it will be eye-catching enough."
"Whether Happy Farm can move to the next level depends on you."
He came to Gu Jingjing's hometown to see Mile and Yang Tao off. Today, thanks to the continuous popularity of the posts of "Simple Girl".
The total number of registered users of Happy Farm on the campus network has exceeded 400 million, and the peak number of people online at the same time was more than 15.
This has led to an increase of more than 100 million new registrations on the campus network!
The total number of registered users of the campus network has just exceeded 2000 million... It is a semi-real-name system, and basically all information such as name, ID, school, etc. are registered.
This is one-tenth of the concurrent online volume of NetEase Zhuchang's Fantasy Westward Journey.
From the time it went online at midnight on the 4th to now, just over a week later, Happy Farm's monthly turnover has exceeded 100 million yuan.
Anyone with vision should have clearly seen the value of this game long ago.
The campus network connects to the society, and the project team, which welcomes people from the society to join without any barriers, has been working late nights and in shifts to advance the development.
Gu Jingjing, the big internet celebrity, has greatly enjoyed the celebrity effect.
Gu Jingjing also bowed slightly again excitedly, "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, we are not in a hurry to go back this time. It will only take two or three days to reach the capital."
"This is too easy to make money! We must do a good job of soft copywriting promotion..."
When she returned to Beijing, she bought a new car and registered it under her name. She could also get 60 yuan from Volkswagen's 30 yuan. In addition, there was competition in the cosmetics field between European and American brands and domestic national brands. In the end, Chando offered 30 yuan to let Gu Jingjing sell Chando's lipstick, facial cleanser and face cream.
This is another 15 before tax!
If Gu Jingjing wants to buy a small house of more than 30 square meters and can pay in full, the only thing she is not sure about is the location, whether it is within the Third Ring Road or the Fourth Ring Road.
I have a car and a house!
Do you think she is excited?
Mile took a sip of Coke and said, "Old Wang, you are really talented. My family is rich, but I have watched you run into the tens of millions and strive for the hundreds of millions."
"I didn't see it. I never thought of it in my dreams."
Yang Tao was also a little dizzy. She was trying hard to suppress her excitement and said with a smile, "Boss Wang, when Mile and I become famous like Jingjing, we will also promote Happy Farm with all our strength."
She didn't expect to embark on this path, but this path is not bad. Making money is too easy and safe.
As for hotel management... a long vacation? Yang Tao studied fine arts for seven years before entering university. He had always been an art student in junior high and high school. When he was about to apply to a professional university, he was diagnosed with color blindness and professional colleges would not accept him.
Then I took the entrance exam for Beijing International Studies University.
She has loved designing and making wedding dresses since elementary school. This is her true hobby and the career she most wants. She hopes she can become as rich as Gu Jingjing.
Her biggest dream is to open a bridal shop and be both the boss and the designer.
More than half a year as a lobby manager at Langham Hotel? Screw that.
It was only after she returned home a few days ago that she fully understood and realized how popular Gu Jingjing was on the Internet and how much favor she had among the people.
The 2008 National Best Girlfriend label! !
Follow the other person's way back to Beijing, take a ride with him/her, and become famous by pretending to be good sisters or people who have suffered a broken heart, and make money easily.
This smells so good.
She had just met Mile and Gu Jingjing not long ago, but that didn't stop her from quickly treating the two little sisters as good sisters, especially since they all had just experienced a profound failure in their first love and had been dumped and cheated on.
If Wang Chengguang and Wu Xiaowei were not present, she would have wanted to organize a party and invite them to drink.
Wang Chengguang nodded. "It's up to you guys from now on. Xiaowei and I will leave first."
He drove here by himself, in the same car with Wu Xiaowei, Milei, and Yang Tao. He and Milei took turns being the driver. It took them more than ten hours to arrive after traveling more than a thousand kilometers.
Now, he plans to go back to his hometown in Henan Province to stay for a few days.
Go back to see my relatives after the New Year.
When I return to Beijing, I guess Happy Farm will reach a new level with the help of the alliance of three heartbroken people.
After returning, the multiple versions of the MVs for "Dislocated Time and Space" and "As Wish", including a chorus version by teenagers and young people, must have produced results, which just happened to continue the promotion based on Gu Jingjing's popularity.
He has decided on the creative ideas and shooting directions for multiple versions, and he just asked professional directors to do the work. No matter whether it is the Beijing University of Architecture and Technology, Beijing University of Economics and Management, or the No. 5 Middle School circle, it is not difficult to handle them.
Gu Jingjing's hometown is only a few hundred kilometers away from his hometown, and he can reach the county today.
………………
At around 5 pm, Wang Chengguang and Wu Xiaowei returned to the county town together, found a hotel to settle down, and casually asked the waiter about the housing prices in the county town.
Wow, 700 yuan per square meter.
There are several new residential areas currently under construction in the county, all of which are six-story buildings with walk-up stairs. Two of them are demolished from old urban areas. They are located in the county’s most prosperous commercial street and where many banks are clustered.
Two of them are new development areas, which are very close to Xinxian People’s Hospital, the county’s first high school, etc.
A short distance across a main road!
When he took Wu Xiaowei shopping, he smiled and said, "I come back to my hometown every New Year and other holidays. Why not buy a house? My home in the countryside doesn't have an internet connection, which is a bit inconvenient."
Wu Xiaowei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "The full price of a 125-square-meter house is less than 9 yuan. You were raised by your grandparents, so why not buy two more houses, one with two apartments facing each other."
"My grandparents are old, so they live opposite the county people's hospital... It will save them a lot of trouble in the future."
She didn't dare to follow Wang Chengguang back to the countryside right now, so she stayed in the county town these days.
………………
About the same time.
On the Normal University forum, when Gu Jingjing posted a new thread, "I plan to return to Beijing and introduce two new friends to everyone", it had just been integrated into the network.
Accompanied by the display of beautiful group photos.
There is also content. The Normal University Forum was paralyzed again in a short period of time!
Many netizens have become accustomed to Gu Jingjing's fair skin, beautiful face and long legs. The more they look at her, the more they find her attractive. Yang Tao, who is at the peak of her beauty, is a 27-year-old mature woman with the temperament of a mature woman. She is more charming than Gu Jingjing.
Mile... She is at least much more beautiful than ordinary girls, has a good figure, and can wear clothes. Three beauties together, the Alliance of the Broken-hearted!
Three victims of being dumped and cheated on.
Countless netizens were so angry that they started smashing their keyboards and mice on the spot, especially when they were flooded with beautiful pictures. The more they looked at them, the more beautiful they looked, and they were all top university students.
The Normal University forum is paralyzed.
………………
February 2th, Valentine's Day. Wang Chengguang stayed in his hometown yesterday for one night and stayed there until noon on the 14th before returning to the county town. When he arrived at the hotel parking lot, Wu Xiaowei quickly ran over to celebrate.
After a heated argument, Wu Xiaowei said with a smile, "Brother Guang, there's a guy named Chen who claims to be the CEO of Oak Pacific Group. He called you and left you a message..."
"He said he wanted you to call him back when you're free."
Wang Chengguang has multiple mobile phone numbers, including a mobile phone. When he goes back to his hometown to reunite with his family, he puts aside many business calls.
As he led Xiao Wei toward the guest room, he smiled and said, "Did that old Chen say what it was about?"
Wu Xiaowei nodded. "Yes, on February 2, following Gu Jingjing's post, Yang Tao also posted a message, calling on old classmates from high school and college to contact them through the campus network."
"Let's play games together..."
"In just two or three days, Xiaonei.com has gained hundreds of thousands of new registered users. In the ten days since Happy Farm was launched, Xiaonei.com has gained more than 200 million new users in total."
"He wants to spend money to bombard this drainage force more."
"As long as we can help Gu Jingjing, Yang Tao and others attract traffic to Xiaonei.com and expand its scale, we can transfer 100 million RMB to Xinghuo Media for every additional 100 million new users."
Is this outrageous? Xiaonei.com is a benchmark for Facebook in North America. From its inception in 05 to the Spring Festival of 08, it only had nearly 2000 million registered users.
There are registration restrictions, which is similar to a semi-real-name system, but to put it bluntly, in a few years, Yang Tao's ex-boyfriend Li Wei will be able to create paper files and fake academic qualifications to turn himself into a senior executive of a large company.
It is not too difficult to register with fake information on the Internet.
This is ultimately a dating site, not a household registration site.
Mr. Chen of Oak Pacific originally had the following trajectory: with a user base of around 08 million in 2000, he went to SoftBank to raise US$4.3 million, and then continued to expand into the market without setting any barriers to entry, and went public in 2011.
Happy Farm, a big internet celebrity, a big topic and a hot topic promoted by Wang Chengguang, is still hot during the New Year holiday and has attracted more than 200 million new users to Campus Network?
This is just like a popular post about a "simple girl", which has fermented to the point where the original post has received over 20 million hits and the total number of replies has reached over .
This efficiency in bringing in new users is incredible!
老陈原本能用2000来万用户忽悠来4.3亿美刀约等于30亿人民币,每多100万注册新用户分他100万人民币??
That's not right... If it weren't for Gu Jingjing, Yang Tao, Mile and others who brought in more than 200 million new users, and without his interference, it would have taken only two or three years for Xiaonei.com to grow from 2000 million users to 1.2 million users when it moved to high schools and white-collar workers and then to no longer have any restrictions.
And with 2011 million active users in 3000, he was qualified to ring the bell in New York.
What Wang Chengguang and his Spark promote is the siphon effect after acceleration and large exposure.
In this era, there are countless people in society who want to contact their classmates from junior high school, high school, and college. If they don’t have contact information, they will look for acquaintances, friends, close friends, and besties in their memory, especially those they had a crush on during their student days.
How could so many people have contact numbers a dozen years ago? It was even harder to find them when working in different cities.
It is the campus network that fills this gap in finding old friends!!
One of the four great friends in life is that there are always a few good friends from school whom you remember vividly, but you can never get in touch with them.
Before, many people in society did not know about the existence of Xiaonei.com. It was only because of internet celebrities such as Gu Jingjing that Xiaonei.com was widely exposed and thus had a rapidly growing new user base.
More importantly, there are new users in high schools...
One-tenth of the users have been added in ten days? That can't be the result of just the influencers.
The foundation is still the campus network, which allows countless people to contact their junior high school, high school and college classmates, and spreads to high school campuses.
This... this is all right.
Even without Wang Chengguang, Oak Pacific's Chen would have been able to squeeze nearly 30 billion RMB from Softbank to develop Xiaonei.com, which was renamed Renren.com.
The siphon effect after the big exposure means he doesn't need to do anything more. All he needs to do is for Gu Jingjing, Mile, Yang Tao, Wu Di, Zhang Biao and others to continue promoting Happy Farm and continue to expose the campus network.
Countless white-collar workers and brick-moving workers still flock to register on the campus network with the purpose of finding their secret crush or prince charming in their memories.
He is also a person who operates popular people and popular topics, and helps people advertise!
Just like hyping up Datang Hongyun diapers and getting paid 50 yuan.
If we think in this way, 100 million users and 100 million RMB is a huge profit! If Lao Chen spends millions or tens of millions on advertising at the central bank, there will also be this siphon effect.
Wang Chengguang was speechless for a while, then asked curiously, "In which year did Yang Tao graduate from university?"
Wu Xiaowei thought for a few seconds, "2003, or 04? She also worked around for a few years after graduation before becoming the lobby manager of a four-star hotel."
"Like what you complained about last time, your family doesn't have a few chain hotels, so why are you studying hotel management in college..."
Wang Chengguang said with emotion, "This carambola is using the wind to explode, and it can blow out a bunch of old classmates."
He was still complaining when Wu Xiaowei's cell phone rang. When she took it out and looked at it, she smiled and said, "Ayi called you..."
This mobile phone is also one of Wang Chengguang’s work phones that Wu Xiaowei carries with her.
When Wang Chengguang answered the phone, Ayi exclaimed, "Brother Wang, Xiaonei.com transferred 276 million to our company, saying it was a bonus for newly registered users."
"There was no agreement or contract before this. They just paid the full amount..."
Wang Chengguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "This shows a little bit of sophistication."
Ayi said again, "They also said that they can negotiate a new contract for the Happy Farm game. As long as you, Brother Wang, work hard, the game share can be changed to 60% to 70% of the profits for Xinghuo, and Xiaonei.com will take 30% to 40%."
"And the number of new users of Xiaonei.com is still the equivalent of 100 million users and 100 million RMB."
"Our farm game has nearly 500 million registered users, with more than 20 people online at the peak, and revenue of over 200 million RMB."
Wang Chengguang thought about it and said, "Okay, let's talk about it in detail after I get back from vacation."
After all, he knew that without his butterfly effect, Xiaonei.com would have been able to go public in New York.
It was launched earlier than the official Facebook!
The effect of many internet celebrities bringing products to the market is powerful in itself, but in essence it is still advertising.
Win-win!!
As for the future collapse of Xiaonei.com, its market value shrunk by 2015% in 80. That is a matter for the future and will not prevent it from earning advertising fees now.
………………
On the night of Valentine's Day, Wu Xiaowei was still letting herself go, walking and lying on the bumpy road of life, when her cell phone rang. Several phone numbers and cell phones rang one after another.
Ten minutes later, Wang Chengguang grabbed a cell phone and called back. Gu Jingjing on the other side was shocked. "Mr. Wang, the forums of Normal University, Beijing Institute of Fashion Technology, and Beijing International Studies University have been paralyzed again."
"This time it's Milei. One of Milei's old high school classmates posted a message saying that Milei's family is ordinary and has only a few hundred million RMB. How could a rich and beautiful girl like her get dumped? Her ex-boyfriend dumped her and married a poor girl..."
"The old classmate couldn't believe that there was a man so stupid, and then the post went viral."
Wang Chengguang, “…”
In the League of Broken Hearts, Milei is the most ordinary and unremarkable one if we only look at her looks and figure.
But an old high school classmate revealed a mundane topic worth hundreds of millions of RMB, which shocked countless netizens in early 2008.
He could imagine the impact that would occur if this topic became popular.
This is even more outrageous than Wanda Lao Wang’s small goal.
