Chapter 227 The Voice Stage

As Zeng Wenjie's advisor, Li Jiaqiang was somewhat uneasy about his student opening a store next to two major brands.

So he made a special trip to come and see.

As a result, upon arriving at the scene, I saw a huge crowd at the entrance of the gold shop, while Huaguo Gold was deserted and no one was paying attention to it. Across the street, Fengxiang Jewelry also had only a few people.

"Oh, counselor, you're here! Please come in!" Zeng Wenjie said hurriedly.

"This idea is really unique! Young people really do have sharp minds, huh?" Li Jiaqiang praised.

Zeng Wenjie smiled and said, "It's just cheating."

Li Jiaqiang asked, "How's business?"

Zeng Wenjie said, "The conversion rate is pretty good, around 10%. We sold a lot of earrings and such."

Earrings sell well because they are relatively inexpensive, given their weight, but the craftsmanship costs are not cheap.

Zeng Wenjie is still holding back; he hasn't revealed some of his trump cards yet.

After all, the two major neighboring brands will definitely report this to their headquarters, and it will inevitably be imitated.

By attacking one move at a time, and each move being a version ahead, one can naturally rise to the top by stepping on them and utterly defeat them.

Li Jiaqiang was secretly surprised after hearing this. He glanced into the store and saw that there was a lot of customers, but the conversion rate was actually 10%.
"Seeing your business booming puts my mind at ease! However, I have to give you a heads-up—"

Li Jiaqiang said earnestly, "Your 'Golden Brick Challenge' is too easy to imitate. Once they start doing it too, it will be much harder for you to attract customers like this. Their foundation is much deeper than your new store!"

Zeng Wenjie laughed and said, "Don't worry, instructor. I've already thought of that. I have a backup plan for them when they try to copy my BRICS challenge!"

Seeing Zeng Wenjie's confidence and considering his previous achievements, Li Jiaqiang nodded in relief.

As expected, Li Hongqiu and Huang Zixiang received a reply from their superiors very quickly.

Their leaders took this matter very seriously and thought the BRICS Challenge was a novel way to attract customers. So, they promised to build a large gold brick within three working days so that they could replicate the BRICS Challenge and grab customers.

Li Hongqiu was instantly relieved. Once China Gold and Fengxiang Jewelry started their BRICS challenge, the advantage of the new store next door, Marlenia, would be eliminated.

However, Li Hongqiu still felt that this store could probably establish itself on the central street, after all, the gold jewelry in their store was really too trendy and creative!

The store's overall light luxury style decor, combined with those trendy gold jewelry, instantly elevates its style, giving it the feel of an international luxury brand!
"Principal, that kid's gold shop is doing booming business. I was worried about him for nothing! He came up with some crazy idea somewhere, got a fifty-pound gold bar and put it in a box at the shop entrance, saying whoever takes it out will get it for free..."

On his way back, Li Jiaqiang called Principal Gao.

Upon hearing this, Principal Gao laughed with satisfaction, feeling that Zeng Wenjie was indeed a genius who could come up with the idea of ​​"village BA" and that his marketing skills were truly impressive!

This gold brick hit Fengxiang Jewelry and Huaguo Gold head-on, leaving the staff of both stores extremely frustrated.

"Dad, President Zhuang, I have a meeting to attend, so I'll be leaving now. Those two companies, I'll come back and deal with them when they try to copy our BRICS Challenge!" Zeng Wenjie said.

With Zhuang Bifan, an experienced expert, in charge of the gold shop, Zeng Wenjie felt very at ease. His only worry was that Zhuang Bifan's skilled craftsmen might not be able to keep up with the gold shop's sales pace.

Zeng Wenjie arrived at the convention center, which had been allocated by the government to the production team of "The Voice of China" for recording, and the stage was set up here.

Ye Yixuan was wearing black trousers and a black suit jacket, with a simple white shirt underneath. She stood outside and waved to Zeng Wenjie when she saw him.

Zeng Wenjie immediately ran up to her, calling out sweetly, "Sister Xuan, good afternoon!"

Ye Yixuan said, "The recording stage is all set up, come and take a look." Following Ye Yixuan into the venue, Zeng Wenjie looked around and nodded in satisfaction after finding that it was pretty much the same as he remembered.

The director came up and said, "Xiao Zeng, why don't you give us some suggestions?"

Zeng Wenjie did indeed find some minor flaws, and after pointing them out, he immediately made corrections.

The production team was chosen by He Jianguo and consisted of elites in the industry. Initially, they looked down on Zeng Wenjie, but after learning about his series of extraordinary deeds and with Zhuang Aimin's support, they all became very supportive of him.

Zeng Wenjie sat down in the swivel chair and asked, "This swivel chair must be expensive, right?"

The person in charge of the budget stepped forward, nodded, and said seriously, "The four swivel chairs cost 800,000."

Zeng Wenjie said helplessly, "There's nothing we can do. After all, these are celebrity mentors, and the show has to appear high-class, so it can't be cheap."

He sat in the swivel chair, had the crew turn on the power, and then pressed a button on the chair. Sure enough, the chair immediately swiveled back to the front at a steady speed.

"Is the sound system all set up? Why don't you all sit down so I can test the sound? Turn around for me," Zeng Wenjie said with a grin.

Ye Yixuan gave him a reproachful look, but still sat down in the swivel chair. The backstage crew immediately cooperated, turning on the power, bringing out the microphone, and turning on the lights.

“There’s no band on site, Zeng, you should talk to the music teacher over there and ask him to play some accompaniment for you on his computer,” the director shouted from his chair.

Zeng Wenjie immediately ran over and communicated with someone, asking him to create a pure instrumental version of his best song, "Lose-Yourself".

He said he wanted to be on this stage, and he really meant it. He shouldn't waste such a great opportunity to build his persona! Plus, he can use this opportunity to promote his snack shop.

The four swivel chairs on the mentor's seat swiveled to the back, and Ye Yixuan leaned back in her chair, immersing herself in the experience.

"Yo, If-you-had, one-shot, one-opportunity..."

Zeng Wenjie's voice came from the speakers. His English pronunciation was clear and pure, but there was a sense that he was deliberately imitating Eminem's accent.

Zeng Wenjie sang this song countless times in his previous life during his live streams. It's really not easy for a humble streamer to do this just to create some buzz and sell some products.

Ye Yixuan was a little surprised by Zeng Wenjie's excellent sense of rhythm, his accurate timing, his ability to keep up with the pace of his speech, and the clarity of his pronunciation.

Gradually, she was drawn into the rhythm of the music and unconsciously began to nod her head slightly to the beat.

When the song reached its climax, Ye Yixuan reached out and slammed a button on the chair, and the entire chair then smoothly turned to face forward.

When Zeng Wenjie saw someone turn around, he immediately pointed at her with his finger while continuing to talk.

The other three chairs also turned back to face the front.

Zeng Wenjie stopped singing after finishing the second verse.

"How do you feel?" Zeng Wenjie asked the four mentors.

"The immersive experience is truly captivating. This kind of blind selection gives the audience a sense of fairness, as if there were no behind-the-scenes manipulation. At the same time, it also makes them eager to see the judges' reactions when they turn around and see the contestants," Ye Yixuan offered her candid assessment.

The director couldn't help but exclaim, "Xiao Zeng, you're a genius! This idea blows the 'Super Girl' show next door out of the water!"

Ye Yixuan seemed to understand something, and said, "If some contestants have physical defects, then the audience will be even more eager to see the mentors' reactions."
