In the first episode, Wei Jun contributed many memorable moments, such as "Wei Jun's portrayal of a girl was incredibly lifelike", "Wei Jun's pranks", and "Wei Jun's high EQ in giving roses".

The video of "Wei Jun and Li Lin looking back at each other in a slow-motion, pink bubble moment" on Bilibili has surpassed one million views.

Baidu Tieba is teeming with discussion threads about program popularity, resources, gossip, fan art, and all sorts of other topics.

Wei Jun's single Weibo post (promotional video repost) garnered over 87 likes, 13.6 comments, and over 23 reposts within 72 hours. The top comment, "Jun Jun, be brave and pursue it! Mom supports you!" received 28 likes.

Wei Jun's Baidu Index peaked at 152891, a year-on-year increase of 1380%, while his WeChat Index surged by 894% on the day of his first broadcast.

Related keywords include "Li Lin/We Are In Love/Rose". The "Satellite Couple" suddenly appeared in the top 3 of the weekly dating topic list, second only to the Song-Song Couple.

The show "We Are In Love" became a hit, and three couples, including the "Satellite Couple," became popular, making Wei Jun a star.

Wei Jun is no longer an unknown figure in the Chinese entertainment industry, but has gained some fame.

The program's price has skyrocketed from 50 yuan per episode to 200 million yuan per episode, even though no one is currently approaching them.

Commercial endorsements also came quickly, but unfortunately, they were endorsements for micro-businesses.

However, commercial performances have started to increase, including real estate openings, high-end shopping mall celebrations, brand launches, variety concerts, and micro-business annual meetings.

Prices range from 30 to 180 million, with the highest being 180 million for a single micro-business annual meeting, settled in cash, but requiring the recording of 15 product announcements.

Wei Jun dared not go, fearing he would get into trouble. He could only choose simple opening events at shopping malls and real estate developments, which paid less, but were still much better than working a regular job.

If "satellite couples" combine, the price will be even higher, and there is a set formula for calculating the price of such combinations in the market.

Price for a combined pairing = (Total price of individual members × 2.5) + Popularity coefficient

(Example: Wei 100 million + Li 120 million) × 2.5 + 50 million = 600 million

So it's true that couples can really make money by teaming up. No wonder film and television couples, variety show couples, and married couples are all out there trying to cash in. Who wouldn't be tempted by such prices?

Wei Jun was tempted, but Li Qin wouldn't allow it. It was unclear whether it was due to her studio's plans or Li Qin's personal desire to no longer be with him. In the past few days, apart from necessary program promotions, Li Qin had rarely spoken to Wei Jun.

He knows what happened, but he doesn't care. He's already hurt people, yet he expects them to go out and make money with him. What is he thinking? It's a miracle that they didn't have a black face the whole time.

In the following weeks, as the show aired, the three couples became increasingly popular. The "Orange Juice Couple" and the "Cosmic Couple" even went on a money-making trip around mainland China. There were reports that they earned 400 million yuan per half-hour episode, making a fortune.

Since Song Ji-hyo spends most of her time in South Korea and earns relatively little, and since the "Satellite Couple" doesn't perform together to make money, most of the commercial offers are sent to the "Cosmic Couple".

Seeing the "Cosmic Couple" constantly engaging in commercial interactions on Weibo, endorsing brands such as glasses, sneakers, underwear, and milk, and even seeing Shawn Yue's own clothing brand MADNESS become a bestseller, with its sales on Taobao immediately jumping to number one.

Wei Jun was so anxious that he paced back and forth at home. It was so frustrating to see so much money but not be able to use it. He had just opened his own studio and suddenly went from being a worker to being a boss. The pressure was immense.

In this world, the scariest thing than ghosts is being broke. He doesn't want to live a life without money again.

He should be the one who earned that money.

Agent Yang Hua immediately sent a message that the gold and jewelry brand Chow Sang Sang invited the "satellite couple" to shoot a photo shoot and commercial promotion for their new Promessa series of couple diamond rings. OPPO mobile phones are also planning to release a couple's phone and have invited the two of them as well.

Wei Jun gritted his teeth. Every single RMB in these "assets" bore his name. Anyone who dared to touch them was making an enemy of him.

He quickly had his agent contact Li Lin's studio to explain the pros and cons, and he also took the initiative to contact Li Lin himself, appealing to her emotions and his own feelings.

When trying to appease an angry girl or girlfriend, you should not use humble methods such as saying "I'm sorry, I was wrong, please forgive me" or kneeling down. This is not advisable.

Even if you manage to appease her this way once, you'll never regain her favor.

In a relationship, if the two parties are not on equal footing, the relationship will inevitably fall apart sooner or later.

Moreover, the more humble you are, the harder it is to win them back. If you try to coax them for a while but they still haven't calmed down, you'll probably break down and say some harsh words. In the end, both of you will end up writing long posts on social media.

Talking about reason and logic is useless; trying to reason with an angry girlfriend is no different than talking to a stubborn mule.

Wei Jun has summarized two techniques for winning over girls.

First, try a fake kiss. Hold your girlfriend and kiss her. The more she struggles and pushes you away, the more you should kiss her. Add sweet words and kiss her until she calms down. The premise is that she has physical attraction to you. If not, then pretend I didn't say anything.

Second, take a practical approach, such as using the emotional transfer method. Cater to her interests by taking her to do things she has always wanted to do but never had the chance to, buying her things she has always wanted to buy but couldn't bring herself to, and giving her some particularly meaningful gifts.

These two sets are based on Wei Jun's high-level modeling, plus a little bit of money.

There are also playstyles that don't rely on modeling or economy; we'll discuss those next time.

Li Lin likes romance, so let's come up with a romantic idea for her to try.

"Henhan, I prepared a gift, which I originally intended to give you when you were happy, but I chose the worst time."

Wei Jun squatted down in front of Li Lin and took out a notebook from his bag.

The notebook was covered with photos of the two of them, including photos from variety shows, photos of them eating and drinking together after filming, and some photos that Wei Jun took secretly.

Each photo is accompanied by a date and a description of what happened between the two people.

"On December 3, 2015, I met Qinqin for the first time. She was like a fairy from heaven, beautiful and gentle, and her voice had a fragrance that was refreshing and heartwarming..."

"On December 24, 2015, we played a toy train game on the streets of Macau, made matching shoes together, and then Hanhan danced a sexy dance for me in the street. In the end, she actually jumped off the tallest tower in Macau. I was so moved that I cried, tears streaming down my face..."

"On January 6, 2016, we took a green tuk-tuk to the market in Bangkok, Thailand. The weather was hot and humid, and the ride was bumpy. We played a game of thumbs-holding with one hand. My hand was big, but I always lost, while Hanhan's hand was small, but she always won."

"We used Thai with pinyin annotations and a calculator to bargain with the vendors, and made Tom Yum soup and green curry chicken together. You praised my knife skills and cooking skills. You gave me a lot of emotional value. I was very touched, so I gave you a 'cold hand cupping face kill' and kissed your forehead."

"At night, we looked at the stars on the beach. I specifically chose our constellation, 'Wei Qin,' and you said you understand me so well in this respect..."

"On January 15, 2016, I dived underwater to find the gift box I had hidden beforehand. Although I was accidentally stung by a sea urchin, I still persisted. You were very touched, and we finally shared a heartfelt kiss underwater."

"I made a jigsaw puzzle by hand using 999 thumbtacks. Each one represents a little memory of our time together, and I specially left a place for the 1000th thumbtack, which means 'lasting forever'."

"You gave me a talking doll, filled with your love for me, and then I sang 'A Little Happiness'..."

"We also attended the Seychelles Carnival, and I still remember you wearing a white lace dress and silver high heels that day..."

......

Wei Jun launched the hashtag 【天籁百变】 and, speaking in a deep, pleasant voice, recounted their past relationship one by one.
