309 Damn It, Morris Is Secretly Tricking Me!
Luo Feng could focus on nurturing internet celebrities after handing Gather Sift Takeaway to Xie Yan.
In the beginning, the few videos that were used for testing were all about farming life and were not important. Later on, under Luo Feng’s on-demand broadcast, the team gradually found the focus.
The filming became smoother and smoother. Luo Feng watched a few segments and was very satisfied.
“I’m really looking forward to it. When can we broadcast it?” Xiao Chun chatted with Luo Feng as she kneaded the noodles.
Today’s filming content was food made from flour.
Luo Feng picked up the flower bun on the chopping board. It was noodles made of flour. Most of the tools were chopsticks, combs, rolling pins, and so on. They pressed out all kinds of patterns, some decorated with red dates.
He heard that in the past, conditions were difficult and this would only be made when the daughter got married.
Luo Feng looked at it curiously. It was indeed very beautiful.
“Boss.” Seeing that Luo Feng was engrossed, Xiao Chun raised her voice. “Why aren’t you replying to me?”
“Ah? Oh. It’s too good-looking. I didn’t pay attention.” Luo Feng carefully put down the flower bun. “It will take a while more.”
“How much longer will it take?” Xiao Chun could not wait.
“The platform is almost done. It’s already in the closed beta stage.” Luo Feng picked up a small ball of dough and pinched it to play. “I uploaded a few videos of you. What I have to do next is to divert the flow.”
“It’s already uploaded. Does anyone want to see it?” Xiao Chun patted the flour on her hand and could not wait to squeeze to Luo Feng’s side.
Luo Feng took out his phone and opened an app called “Microcosm”.
As soon as the app opened, Xiao Chun’s face popped up. The playback scene was vertical and occupied the entire phone screen. Luo Feng scrolled down a few videos, and what appeared were basically all of Xiao Chun.
The microcosm seemed to be Xiao Chun’s private broadcast platform. She was the only one inside.
“I just have to swipe on the video?” Xiao Chun was a little excited and shy.
Luo Feng taught her how to operate. “The following dialog box can send bullet comments. The words of the netizens can scroll on the video. The three buttons beside it are ‘like’, ‘reply’, and ‘share’.”
“When will someone reply to me?” Xiao Chun was extremely excited.
“No one is looking at it for the time being. We will move to the flow directing stage very soon,” Luo Feng said. “Take a few more videos and I’ll post them together.”
“No problem!”
After saying that, Xiao Chun ran back and kneaded the dough even harder.
After leaving the kitchen, Luo Feng saw Yang Tianzhen sitting in the courtyard in a daze. He was still holding some paper resumes in his hand with a worried expression.
“What’s wrong? Did the interviews not go well?” Luo Feng sat beside him and asked.
“The interview hasn’t gone smoothly since the beginning.” Yang Tianzhen couldn’t help but complain as he slapped the resumes on the ground.
Luo Feng picked it up and looked at it. “Aren’t these people quite good?”
Yang Tianzhen shook his head angrily. “I think this person is quite good after showing his specialty. I’ve already arranged a position for him, but he said that he won’t come on the day he’s supposed to come.”
“This one requests us to spend good resources to support her. She said that she wants to become famous in a month.”
“This is the most infuriating thing. He promised to come to work. The next day, I saw him downstairs at that company.”
Yang Tianzhen hated the previous company so much that she did not even want to mention its name.
He adjusted his sitting posture and faced Luo Feng. “Boss, don’t you think we can’t always be so unlucky? I asked someone I knew the other to find out about what had happened and it turned out that everyone I liked had gone to our enemy!”
Yang Tianzhen gritted his teeth in hatred. Every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
“I see. Then there are only the two of them now.” Luo Feng put down these resumes. “It’s okay, we won’t bite off more than you can chew. If we make the two of them famous and make a name for ourselves, we won’t have to be afraid that no one will come.”
“Boss, you’re really the most optimistic and calm person I’ve ever seen.” Yang Tianzhen admired him.
“If you’re like me and have experienced a lot, you’ll know that it’s useless to be anxious. Why don’t you spend your energy where it’s within your ability?” Luo Feng said sincerely. “Do your best and let fate tell us the results. This is my principle.”
“Wow!” Yang Tianzhen cupped her face, his eyes shining with admiration. He looked at Luo Feng like a girl chasing after a celebrity.
After a while, Yang Tianzhen pondered over the taste again.
Why did Luo Feng sound so old-fashioned? He was clearly a young man in his twenties but his attitude seemed more like a 40-odd middle-aged man.
“Boss, you… Boss?” Yang Tianzhen looked around and did not notice when Luo Feng left the small courtyard.
…
The Microcosm app had already uploaded many videos of Xiao Chun and Tang Jin, but there were very few users. They had also invested a lot of money in developing the software.
Xie Yan broke out in a cold sweat for Luo Feng.
“It’s okay, right? You started to invest in the market so rashly,” Xie Yan said. “Don’t spend a lot of money and end up reaping nothing.”
“How can that be? You shouldn’t be worried about me.” Luo Feng was full of confidence.
Xie Yan originally believed in Luo Feng. The research and development conditions given to him by Luo Feng were very perfect after all. It was as if Luo Feng had once used them and made them without much testing.
However, Luo Feng’s method of promoting the software was really a little ridiculous.
Xie Xie looked at the advertisement filmed by the Innovative Artist team. The content was really too advanced.
“Do you really want to use these advertisement videos to divert attention?” Xie Yan asked one last time. “And this reward mechanism of yours…”
“Of course. Don’t you think it attracts attention?”
“It’s true that it’s a little funny…”
“Just wait and see the effect. I’ve already signed an advertisement contract with someone and am about to meet the netizens. Don’t forget to post publicity for the takeaway software provider,” Luo Feng instructed them one by one.
Xie Yan nodded reluctantly.
He was very worried that these advertisements would anger the users, but Luo Feng was the boss and he could only listen to his arrangements.
Luo Feng was confident. He watched the short videos in the Microcosm app and gave Xiao Chun and the others better videos a ‘like’.
Soon, the advertisements were out.
Many netizens would see a very subtle advertisement when they opened some commonly used software, such as Gather Sift Takeaway, Amazon shopping software, and even online lesson software.
For example, if a woman wanted to buy a drink and there was not enough change in her account, the man selling water would take her phone and help her resolve her urgent needs.
The method was to download the Microcosm app, swipe videos, like them, and save these posts. They would all be given gold coins. When the gold coins were saved up to a certain amount, they would be returned to cash.
The performance in the advertisement was extremely exaggerated. It could be transferred to more than ten videos after farming for more than 10 seconds.
This kind of obvious advertisement made the users confused. They even suspected that they had opened a fake app or that their phones had been poisoned.
“What the f*ck is this? How can there be such a good thing!”
“F*ck, which retarded company filmed this?”
“I don’t want to see the advertisement! Can you tell me how to turn it off!”
During the period when they first invested in the advertisement, the Internet was filled with ridicule. Most netizens expressed that they hated such eye-catching advertisements.
