[Little Sweet Heat Card: A special Social Event Heat Card. The question, "How much does a man need to earn to support you?" and the answer, "He just needs to take me out to eat," set the entire internet ablaze, generating 2.1 billion social event views! After choosing a suitable target and filming an identical video, you will receive the same level of social event heat.]

Chen Jincheng was truly surprised when he saw the Heat Card he had suddenly received.

A Social Event Heat Card was obviously different from a regular one.

Regular Heat Cards usually increased likes, while this Social Event Heat Card boosted social event views instead.

Recalling the Little Sweet incident from his past life, he had a pretty good idea of what this was all about.

A regular Heat Card probably only targeted a specific type of video, boosting its popularity.

As for the Little Sweet incident, the person who posted the video didn’t actually have amazing numbers—just a little over 100 million views and 8 million-plus likes. What truly caused the "Little Sweet" phenomenon to blow up was the social tension stemming from the growing problems of exorbitant bride prices and "gold-digging" women.

In a society where the prevailing culture was defined by gold-diggers and demands for hundreds of thousands in bride price, along with luxury homes and cars, men were being crushed under the pressure.

Then, a beautiful woman suddenly said that to support her, a man just had to take her out to eat. That instantly became a release valve, escalating into a social phenomenon discussed across the entire internet.

All the men put her on a pedestal, hailing her as the "easiest-to-please girlfriend on the internet."

Countless men even flocked to Chengdu, wanting to treat her to a meal. They also went to the place where the video was filmed, hoping for a chance to run into her.

Furthermore, during that time, it sparked a massive trend.

According to statistics, it actually caused a significant boost in Chengdu’s GDP in that short period.

With 2.1 billion social event views, you can imagine how huge the buzz was. All sorts of media outlets and news agencies were reporting on it. Even Luo Xiaozhu’s scandal didn’t come close to this level of hype.

It was a shame, though. In his past life, that Little Sweet was probably from a wealthy family or simply had a rich boyfriend who drove a sports car. She was genuinely above it all and refused to capitalize on the fame, not even creating a Tiao Yin account. Otherwise, influencers like Dagula K and Wen Wan would have been nowhere near her level.

For some unknown reason, she created a Tiao Yin account five years later. Even with the five-year gap, her account quickly amassed over seven million followers in a short period.

It was as if everyone was welcoming the return of the Bai Yueguang of old.

But a Bai Yueguang is meant to remain a fantasy. When she started live-streaming and making videos, everyone discovered she had become very materialistic, wearing heavy, garish makeup and completely lacking the innocent look she once had.

It was just like the countless men who dream of their Bai Yueguang, only to have their dreams shattered when they finally meet her.

In a short time, her follower count plummeted from over seven million to just over three million.

Those who unfollowed her probably all came to the same realization: that year was gone forever, just like their own youth.

But Chen Jincheng knew that if she could still gain over seven million followers after a five-year absence, how incredibly successful would she have been if she hadn’t been so proud and had ridden that initial wave of fame?

She would have at least secured a spot among Tiao Yin’s top female streamers.

Now that he had this card, he certainly couldn’t let one of his company’s talents be so proud. They had to seize this opportunity, and they had to do it perfectly.

More importantly, this card could be his chance to elevate his social standing.

’Just think, why did Three Sheep become so massive in his past life?’

’The main reason was local government support.’

’The local government initially backed Vya, working closely with her backer, Ah Li. They wanted to bring in Ah Li’s e-commerce supply chain. They even invited Boss Ma over for talks—back before his downfall—hoping to get Ah Li to establish a local hub for the digital economy and e-commerce.’ 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

’In the end, all they got out of it was a lame "cloud hotpot" project.’

’While continuing to pursue that, they had to settle for second best and meet with Vya’s team again. They hoped to convince Vya’s team to relocate their live-streaming e-commerce business to the area so they could get a piece of the action.’

’But their luck was terrible. One of their two main targets, the collaboration with Boss Ma, came to a screeching halt when he ran into trouble. Then, the following year, Vya—who had already started moving some of her e-commerce projects to the area—had her scandal break, and she was banned from the entire internet.’

’Many people know that Three Sheep got big, but they have no idea why.’

’In reality, a huge part of Three Sheep’s success was just pure luck.’

’If Boss Ma hadn’t made those outrageous remarks and torpedoed his own career...’

’If Vya hadn’t been exposed, the Three Sheep Building would now be the Vya Group Tower or the Ah Li E-commerce Digital Center.’

’Coastal City was trying to do the same thing back then, they just weren’t successful.’

If he could use this Little Sweet Heat Card to achieve the same effect as in his past life, then Coastal City, just like Chengdu back then, should see a boost in its GDP.

’At that point, would the Coastal City authorities look into the cause? Would they notice me, Chen Jincheng, and Second-Life Star?’

’That would be the opportunity to make contact.’

’The status of an internet celebrity is always too precarious. Get too big, and you can easily get into trouble.’

’If I can connect with the Coastal City government, then once the live-streaming e-commerce function launches and that era begins, it wouldn’t be hard for me, with my foreknowledge, to replicate the success of Three Sheep. I could even follow the Dong Yuhui model and surpass them.’

’But before all that, he hoped to be like those few clever influencers and secure a ’membership’ with Coastal City—an extra layer of protection.’
