Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities-Chapter 65 - 63: The Parking Lot Big Pendulum Incident
Chen Jincheng immediately checked the employee information in the "Life Simulation Game" in his mind.
The game system had just notified him that his employee, Jiang Xiaobai, was in a bad state and her Loyalty had fluctuated.
’Can’t this girl take it? Messing with her Loyalty like this.’
Name: Jiang Xiaobai
Loyalty: 0-100
Status: The girl seems very downcast right now. This feeling has her mind running wild...
Seeing the girl’s status, he figured it must be because he hadn’t answered her calls or replied to her messages.
He decided to give her a call anyway.
Stringing her along was one thing, but letting it cause a problem with her Loyalty would mean he’d screwed up.
He dialed her number, and she picked up almost instantly. He could hear the grievance in her voice. "Cheng, you didn’t answer my call!"
’She answered so fast. She must have been holding her phone, just waiting for me to call back.’
Chen Jincheng began to spin a lie. "Xiaobai, my phone died. I just got off the yacht and found a power bank, so I called you right back!"
Yinyin, who was standing nearby, heard this and looked at him with her clear eyes. ’The boss is such a natural liar.’
’His phone didn’t die, though?’
"Really?" Jiang Xiaobai clearly sounded a little doubtful.
Chen Jincheng feigned anger. "You don’t believe me? And here I was, planning a surprise for you that I was going to tell you about in a few days."
"No, I believe you! You’re the best," Jiang Xiaobai said hurriedly, making her feelings clear.
"Good. I’m hanging up now." Chen Jincheng didn’t say any more, ending the call at just the right moment.
He looked at her employee information again:
Name: Jiang Xiaobai
Loyalty: 100
Status: The girl’s mood seems to have suddenly improved, like the clouds have parted after a storm.
Chen Jincheng was satisfied. This girl got worked up easily, but she was also easy to pacify. And just like that, the problem was solved.
Next, he checked Yinyin’s information:
Name: Lin Shiyin
Loyalty: 100
Status: Seize the opportunity!
Her status was simple enough: Seize the opportunity!
’So, I’m the opportunity, right?’
The key thing was, she was one of only two employees with 100 Loyalty.
This made him want to complain.
’Both damn girls reached 100 Loyalty under the exact same circumstances.’
A moment later, Lin Hao emerged from the rest hall with the "Blue-clothed War God" girl. They were talking and laughing, and the girl looked very happy, her smile all the more infectious.
But when the girl, Qianqian, saw this, she pouted, the three words ’sense of crisis’ practically written on her face.
"Lao Cheng, let me introduce you. This is Luo Xin. She’s a member of my Ah Hao Media now." Lin Hao looked ecstatic, as if he’d just recruited a top general, and happily introduced her to Chen Jincheng.
"Chen Jincheng!" Luo Xin was clearly surprised. After all, he was all over the internet today.
"Hello!" Chen Jincheng smiled and shook her hand, purely to give Lin Hao face, since he had made a point of introducing them.
"Hello, hello! I just saw your video today." Luo Xin was all smiles. Meeting him made her feel a little more excited about her own upcoming influencer career.
Chen Jincheng really wanted to say that he’d seen her videos too, but as they shook hands, he noticed how soft her hand was. ’No wonder that Third-Place Scholar lost all self-control the moment she held his hand and even kept coming back for more.’
After this little interlude, the group went into the Fenglin Rest Hall to let the girls change their clothes. Then, the two groups went back to their respective companies.
Once they were back at Second-Life Star, Sister Hong gave the videos they shot today to Xiaoliao and Xiaohai, telling them to edit and upload them as quickly as possible.
...
「The sky gradually darkened.」
Chen Jincheng took a shower, came out of the bathroom, changed his clothes, and then took out his phone to check the performance of the yacht hand-gesture dance videos the girls had uploaded to Tiao Yin.
As he’d predicted, this type of video was definitely eye-catching. Moreover, this time they had specifically chosen to film the well-endowed, long-legged girls, and the videos attracted a lot of attention as soon as they were uploaded.
Although none of the videos showed signs of going viral, their views were increasing steadily. The data was pretty good, meaning the plan hadn’t been a waste of effort.
Yinyin’s video, in particular, did the best. She already had a large fanbase, and her "Big Pendulum" was a unique advantage. Judging by the trend, it would probably reach 500,000 likes, and her follower count would also increase significantly.
At this rate, if he came up with another plan for her based on a viral trend from his past life, he could get her straight past the two-million-follower mark.
Just then, a call came in from Sister Hong. "Boss, I have three things to report. First, the stocking collaboration is a go. They’re coming over tonight and will be at the company first thing tomorrow morning. We’ll finalize the contract, shoot the video ad, and upload it. We can still ride the wave of hype from you ripping those stockings today."
"Second, the song ’Girl’ has gone viral and is being used by a ton of influencers. Tiao Yin is giving us a licensing fee of 2.5 million!"
"Girl" was worth that price, but Chen Jincheng didn’t like that particular number.
He said directly to Sister Hong, "Sister Hong, tell Tiao Yin to make it one yuan cheaper. I’m not hurting for that one yuan."
"..." Sister Hong was stunned for a moment, then moved on to the third item. "Those clip channel owners have arrived. I booked a private room at a hotel to host them and was just about to head over. Don’t be late. These guys each run several clip channels about you, and they all get good traffic. We can use them at any time."
"Okay." Chen Jincheng understood the importance of these clip channels even better than Sister Hong did.
For example, how did the trending topic "The #1 Scumbag’s Unavoidable Showdown with Tiao Yin’s Three Big Pendulums" blow up so quickly today?
The biggest reason was that these clip channels had sprung into action.
When enough clip channels, which already had significant traffic, all post the same content at the same time, it instantly pushes the topic’s popularity through the roof.
By hosting them this time, he would also cooperate by filming some daily-life videos for them. These videos would be exclusive to their clip channels, allowing them to attract more traffic. It was a mutually beneficial arrangement, as it also served as promotion for him.
Most importantly, he knew these people ran a studio. He wasn’t the only influencer they made clips for; they worked with others too. Between them, they definitely had over 100 clip channels.
If all these accounts pushed together, it would be much easier to get gimmicky, attention-grabbing content to become a trending topic.
So, this meeting was purely about building a good relationship and ensuring he could call on these people whenever he needed them.
And it would be simple enough.
He knew that at this stage, these clip channels had very poor monetization. So, he planned to leak some information about future trends to them, like Tiao Yin’s upcoming shopping cart feature.
This would be a new era for influencers, and also a new era for the people who made clip channels.
The era of selling products through clip channels was about to begin.
With this advance notice, they would surely be able to get a head start. And with this favor owed to him, mobilizing them whenever he wanted should be a piece of cake.
After all, they still needed his clips to edit.
After hanging up with Sister Hong, Chen Jincheng drove out, calling Yinyin a few times to ask where she was.
When he learned she was at the Jinmao Building’s shopping mall again, he drove straight to the building’s underground parking garage and gave her a call. "I’m in the parking garage."
"Boss, I’m coming down right now!" Yinyin said with pleasant surprise before hanging up.
A moment later, Chen Jincheng saw Yinyin step out of the elevator. That evening, she was wearing a sexy, halter-neck pink dress in that "innocent but alluring" style, which perfectly accentuated her tall, slender figure.
He’d also noticed that she seemed to love wearing clothes in this "innocent but alluring" style, but sometimes, such outfits struggled to contain her "Big Pendulum."
Sure enough, as he watched her happily run toward his passenger-side door, it was like an earthquake, the very ground shaking.
The scene suddenly sparked an idea in his mind. He recalled a hugely popular video series from his past life, on another platform: "The Parking Garage Big Pendulum Incident!"
It was all started by a viral video titled, "The Big Pendulum, It’s Like This, Right?"
The video featured a beautiful, well-endowed girl running toward her boyfriend’s passenger seat with a joyful, happy expression. It was filmed from the boyfriend’s perspective as he waited in the car, which gave it high emotional value.
What he’d just seen from Yinyin was practically the same thing.
Getting her past two million followers was now a sure thing. He didn’t even have to rack his brains for a plan.
Yinyin reached the car and was about to open the door, but Chen Jincheng had locked it, so she couldn’t get it open. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Boss, the door is locked," Yinyin said, immediately looking at him with an innocent expression.
"Yinyin, I have a surprise for you," Chen Jincheng said, smiling at her. "Go back to the elevators and run over here again. You’ll only get this big surprise if you can make it to the car in five seconds."
"Really?" Yinyin’s face was full of anticipation.
"Mhm," Chen Jincheng nodded.
Once she got confirmation, the girl didn’t hesitate for a second and happily walked back toward the elevators.
