Chapter 124 Bar
Today, Chen Yan did not return to Jiangnan Township, nor did he go to Wen Ya's place. Instead, after sending the three girls from the dormitory back to school, he went back to the photo studio by himself.
Sitting on the seventh floor, Chen Yan checked the results of the streamers he had recently signed.
After signing a group of streamers, the first thing Chen Yan did was to officially acquire ownership of the accounts and re-bind their original accounts.
After all, changing the binding is just a matter of a phone card. If you take this shortcut, there could be a lot of disputes if some special circumstances arise.
After signing the contract, Chen Yan also provided some future themes—such as chest-shaking dances and window cleaning.
These streamers have all achieved some success, with the best one receiving over 800,000 likes and gaining nearly 500,000 new followers.
Of course, the results were good, but Chen Yan did not have high expectations for them, since the vast majority of those attracted by these videos were old perverts who liked to watch suggestive content.
As we all know, the spending power of veteran fans is among the lowest of all fans, and the prices of streamers who are involved in the "bare" category are also much lower than those of streamers in other categories.
Of course, Chen Yan had considered letting them pursue other paths, but none of them had any special characteristics. Only one or two truly had potential. Although skirting the edges wouldn't make them a fortune, it would still be enough to earn a small amount.
'We still need to hurry.' Chen Yan rubbed his temples, preparing for the next step of the plan.
If he remembers correctly, in two months, a hip-shaking dance craze will sweep across the music platform, and Daigula K, as the first artist to perform, will be raking in a huge amount of traffic.
The video garnered over 10 million views within 48 hours, over 10 million likes in a single week, and gained 5 million followers in a week. Subsequently, over 2 million related fan-made videos were created.
What Chen Yan found puzzling was that he couldn't understand why Daigula K's video was so popular, since neither her appearance nor her dancing skills were particularly outstanding.
After much thought, I can only explain it by two reasons: "the infectious smile" and "the captivating dance".
With such a huge trending topic, Chen Yan couldn't possibly miss it. Even if he couldn't create the same level of popularity as "Dream Inspiration," even if he could achieve half of that, he would definitely be able to create a phenomenal streamer during this period of short video popularity.
The problem is, there are topics, but no people... At least among the current contracted streamers, Chen Yan really can't find a suitable replacement.
'Let's wait and see. If things really don't work out, we'll just pick a couple of generals from among the dwarfs.'
Chen Yan let out a soft breath, then glanced at the time and felt it was about time.
Sure enough, he received a message from Shu He just five minutes later.
[Shu He: I've arrived.]
[Chen Yan: Okay, just come up. I've already informed the front desk.]
……
late at night.
After venting his frustrations, Chen Yan felt much better. Looking at Shu He, who was lying limply on the bed, he asked, "What excuse did you use to get out?"
“I told them that there were things going on at home and I might have to go home for a few days every now and then.”
"Great, you even provided a follow-up excuse." Chen Yan touched Shu He's face and said, "By the way, what are your thoughts on Wu You? Do you still like him?"
“He’s too weak.” Shu He shook her head and said softly, “I probably won’t have anything to do with him anymore.”
The two held each other quietly, feeling each other's breath and body temperature.
After a while...
"Aren't we being unfair to Jingyi by doing this?" she murmured softly.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yan almost burst out laughing.
You didn't say a word when the battle was raging, but now that it's over, you're acting all saintly, right?
"What does it have to do with you?" Chen Yan was quite adept at using sweet talk.
Although he was mostly on the stronger side in his relationship with Shu He, relationships require a push and pull, a mix of hardship and reward.
“It was my own choice, you were just forced into it. If there’s any responsibility, it’s mine.” Chen Yan casually played with Shu He’s hair and said softly, “Besides, Jingyi and I are good friends, and so am I. We’re all good friends, so what’s there to be sorry about?”
"You and her..." Shu He instantly understood what Chen Yan meant. It turned out that Tian Jingyi and Chen Yan were just in that kind of relationship, but because of their interactions, they were subconsciously treated as a couple.
Although she felt that what she did was wrong, Shu He was indeed relieved.
She knew her behavior made her a typical bad woman, but she couldn't help it. Ever since she had sex with Chen Yan, she found herself becoming more and more dependent on him. During the few days she spent in the dorm, she would dream about him from time to time...
As a male god, of course he wouldn't lack an excellent partner.
[Shu He's affection for the host has reached "Deepest Love," and rewards are being distributed...]
[Congratulations, host, you have received a reward - a bar (800 square meters)]
Chen Yan: "..."
After being stunned for about half a second, Chen Yan immediately realized that the system's companion mechanism had kicked in again.
After all, the last reward from the partner system was a skill upgrade card obtained through Wen Ya, which gave Chen Yan a near-monopoly on the [Pure Yang Body]. But why is this reward so different? Last time it was a special item, how come this time it's just a bar?
After a moment's thought, Chen Yan quickly realized that the gap between the two sides was quite large.
Wen Ya's looks are over 90 points, and she can completely outshine Shu He in all aspects, including her career... Compared to her, Shu He has almost no advantages except for her youth, so it's understandable that she gets a lower reward.
Moreover, an 800-square-meter bar is actually quite a generous reward.
Chen Yan quickly figured out how to maximize the bar's profits... Although his streamers didn't have any particularly outstanding characteristics, most of them were quite good at pushing the boundaries.
Old perverts generally won't pay for streamers who push the boundaries, but if they happen to find a streamer in a nearby bar while watching videos, anyone who likes to have fun will come and check it out.
When the time comes, we'll just put the special prop, the "lucky cat," there. If the photo studio's business isn't good, it won't matter. We can just turn it into an MCN shooting base.
While thinking this, Chen Yan began to examine the interior structure of the bar.
The bar has a floor area of 800 square meters and a height of 5 meters. It has 40 basic booths, 20 dance floor seats, and 10 private rooms.
The location is also quite good, right near the school, which is one of the more bustling areas in the city. There will be plenty of customers, but how much you can attract depends on your own abilities.
After a quick look around, Chen Yan was quite satisfied with the bar.
Moreover, short video websites like Yinpu have not yet fully exerted their power, and although the real economy has suffered a wave of damage, it still has considerable room for survival.
In a few years, once live streaming has fully taken off, the quality of places like bars and bathhouses will visibly decline.
Even back in 15, when those financial professionals in Shanghai were reaping the benefits of the bull market and recklessly inflating prices, they didn't cause this kind of damage to the real economy.
"That's great, this can be considered expanding our business." Chen Yan chuckled softly, then hugged Shu He even tighter, excitedly saying, "Shu He, you're amazing, I love you so much."
Seeing Chen Yan suddenly become excited, Shu He was a little confused for a moment, but she still tried to stick close to him and whispered, "I love you too."
……
Starting the next day, Chen Yan became busy again.
Although the bar has a rich stock of liquor and the renovations are complete, Chen Yan still has to hire people himself.
Fortunately, the work in this area is progressing very quickly.
Within a few days, positions such as security guards, bartenders, and drinking companions were almost fully filled.
Chen Yan didn't waste any time. After everything was almost ready, he placed the "Lucky Cat" there and officially opened for business.
……
There's more good news than one.
On the other hand, just as Chen Yan was planning to pick the best among the worst and choose a few decent ones to do the hip-shaking dance, he unexpectedly found a very good one among the interview applications he received.
This is a blogger with the ID "Chocolate" on her musical note. She looks like a sweet girl, but her waist-to-hip ratio is quite amazing, comparable to the heroines of some European and American adult films, making people think of the term "perfect sex machine".
What pleased Chen Yan even more was that the other party had actually studied dancing.
However, her own account performance is not very good. She only has more than 50,000 followers, most of her videos only have a few thousand likes, and a few have only exceeded 10,000.
Of course, considering her irregular update cycle and the low-resolution photos comparable to those on small websites, it's not unreasonable that she could only achieve this level of success.
'You're the one.'
Chen Yan selected "Pass Initial Review" on the recruitment page and sent her an interview invitation.
If we can sign this girl, even if we can't fully capitalize on the crazy popularity of the twerking dance in [Dream Inspiration], it definitely won't be too bad.
Once you have your first phenomenal internet celebrity, the subsequent development will be much easier than it is now.
'Chocolate girl, obediently fall into my palm.' Chen Yan looked at the other party's resume and revealed a smile comparable to that of a villainous BOSS.
……
the other side.
A short-haired girl with tanned skin was dancing and filming a video in front of a phone stand when she suddenly received an application that had passed the initial review.
The girl was taken aback at first, but after looking at it carefully, she smiled and quickly made a phone call.
"Hey, Yang, my resume got approved. I can go for the interview in a couple of days. Will you come with me? If I become famous, we'll have lots and lots of money."
"Being scammed? No way, I'll go check it out first. Besides, you're here for me."
