Chapter 335: Chapter 206: Boss, Can You Take Me for a Spin?
This SS-Class live stream push recommendation would definitely take Chen Jincheng’s popularity to the next level. Stabilizing at over 200,000 viewers should be no problem.
And these would be numbers without any bots.
As a platform, they were naturally well aware of how many bots the PK streamers with 500,000+ or 1,000,000+ viewers were using.
It was just that, at this stage, they needed these PK streamers to maintain the platform’s profitability. They would need these people at least until the video-based e-commerce system was fully built. Therefore, even though these PK streamers were already causing problems related to morals and social values, the platform was suppressing the issue.
...
On Tiao Yin, as more and more on-site videos of Zhu Ling were uploaded, the news that countless people were flying to Coastal City was exposed and started gaining serious attention. There even seemed to be a subtle, intentional effort to guide this behavior, as if trying to turn it into a trend and encourage a bandwagon effect.
As the mastermind behind this incident, Chen Jincheng sensed it keenly.
’This situation is clearly being guided by someone.’
He hadn’t done it.
Lin Hao’s side didn’t have this capability.
The same went for the Coastal City Publicity Association; their understanding of online promotion was still in its early stages.
In the lounge provided by Radiant Square, a disheveled Sister Hong walked in. "Boss, I finally understand what you meant by a miracle. It’s too crazy! I was trapped near Zhu Ling’s stall for hours and only just managed to get out."
She had certainly seen something astonishing tonight.
’Even celebrity events aren’t this terrifying, are they?’ And apparently, all of this was within her boss’s control and expectations, which was even more frightening.
"That’s why I didn’t go in." Chen Jincheng smiled. ’My decision was brilliant.’
Sister Hong caught her breath and reported, "Boss, something’s come up. Tiao Yin contacted me just now. They said they want to give you an SS-Class live stream push recommendation."
"An SS-Class live stream push? They’re certainly generous," Chen Jincheng said with surprise.
For Tiao Yin’s live stream push recommendations, the best were S-Class, SS-Class, and SSS-Class.
An S-Class stream push could generate 1 million total views and retain over 10,000 concurrent viewers.
An SS-Class push would have no problem generating 10 million total views and retaining over 100,000 concurrent viewers.
As for an SSS-Class stream push, Chen Jincheng knew that it hadn’t appeared yet at this stage. In the other world, it seemed only a few people like Dong Yuhui, Three Sheep, and King Liu had received one. During the recommendation period, every one of their streams broke over a million concurrent viewers.
Dong Yuhui even hit over 2.8 million in a single night.
Although he couldn’t maintain it afterward, it was undeniable that for a period after the SSS-Class stream push, he was in the limelight.
However, Tiao Yin suddenly giving him an SS-Class stream push also let him know that Tiao Yin must be the one guiding this incident from behind the scenes.
And of course, Tiao Yin wouldn’t do this for no reason.
It seemed the Little Sweet Heat Card hadn’t just benefited him, Radiant Square, and the Coastal City Publicity Association; Tiao Yin had also reaped huge rewards.
He understood after a moment’s thought. After all, in his previous life, the "Little Sweet" incident had attracted the attention of the entire internet and all kinds of media outlets, not just the Tiao Yin platform.
If you could say that their platform’s influencers operated to gain traffic on Tiao Yin, then Tiao Yin itself was like one of many influencers competing on the internet as a whole. Naturally, it also wanted to draw traffic from the entire web.
The back-and-forth between Tiao Yin and Kuaishou in ’18 was really like two influencers in different lanes, each showing off their skills to attract traffic.
The timing of the Little Sweet incident’s appearance in this world was clearly remarkable. Coupled with the effect of the Little Sweet Heat Card, the hype for this event seemed poised to surpass that of the other world.
Chen Jincheng instructed Sister Hong, "Sister Hong, I wrote a song for Little Maru. Let’s wait until she has practiced it well, then we can start this live stream and promote the song at the same time."
"Okay, I’ll contact Tiao Yin tomorrow," Sister Hong nodded.
Just then, Lin Hao, Lin Jian, Zhang Tao, and their group walked in from outside.
As soon as Lin Hao saw him, he said, "Lao Cheng, today’s plan was a huge success! I’ve already had a high-end restaurant in the square prepare a late-night meal. Let’s go eat together."
Behind him, Zhang Tao and Lin Jian also nodded, extending the invitation.
Both of them had excited looks on their faces. After all, today’s popularity had already been a pleasant surprise, but what had they seen just now? The hype for this event had surged once again.
In other words, Radiant Square’s popularity today hadn’t even peaked yet. Tomorrow would be even more explosive.
"Mm." Chen Jincheng agreed, then asked Sister Hong, "Is Zhu Ling all set?"
Sister Hong nodded. "She’s out, under the protection of the security guards."
"Have her join us for a bite to eat," Chen Jincheng instructed.
Sister Hong nodded and called Zhu Ling. A short while later, Zhu Ling arrived with Zhu Jingjing, and they all headed to a high-end restaurant in the square.
It was already late at night, but the restaurant was still full of people, all thanks to the wave of popularity from Zhu Ling, the Street Vendor Girl.
So, the owner personally greeted them with great enthusiasm.
The sudden influx of people to the square had a very obvious effect on his restaurant’s profits. It had been packed from dinnertime until late at night, only just starting to quiet down.
During that time, who knows how many people had wanted to eat but couldn’t get a table.
When Zhu Ling entered the restaurant, she naturally attracted the attention of the other patrons. One by one, they immediately took out their phones and crowded around her.
These people had come specifically for Zhu Ling. They couldn’t get into the vendor area earlier and hadn’t been able to see her, so they were naturally excited to see her now.
Initially, they had come to Coastal City on a whim. But seeing the explosive scene in person had changed their minds. It felt like they were part of an interesting journey. With so many people involved, it was as if they were all part of a collective movement, taking a stand against exorbitant bride prices and materialism.
Now, filming a video of Zhu Ling was partly due to a herd mentality and a desire to get attention, but it was also a way to put a final, memorable touch on their trip.
Zhu Ling cooperated with them, posing for videos.
You could tell from her reserved demeanor that she still wasn’t used to being surrounded by people and being the center of attention.
No one who becomes famous overnight can adapt that quickly.
It’s just that during this adaptation process, some people choose to lay low and go further, while others get carried away and end up shattered to pieces.
Zhu Ling was doing very well in this regard.
Chen Jincheng was also very satisfied with this point.
They finally made it into a private room and had something to eat, but more people heard that Zhu Ling was at the restaurant and swarmed over, quickly making the area impenetrable.
You could imagine that in the cramped space of the restaurant, if Zhu Ling were to go out, she would definitely be mobbed again.
Luckily, the restaurant had a back door. Sister Hong, Lin Hao, and the others walked toward the front to draw attention, while Chen Jincheng took Zhu Ling out the back and headed to the parking lot.
"Boss, those people are too crazy," Zhu Ling said, finally breathing a sigh of relief as they reached the Lamborghini.
"It just means you’re really famous now." Chen Jincheng smiled and beckoned for Zhu Ling to get in the car.
This wasn’t Zhu Ling’s first time in her boss’s Lamborghini Aventador. As she once again got into the passenger seat and smelled the fragrance inside the car, her nerves seemed to be stimulated in some way, and she subconsciously glanced at her boss.
Her sudden fame today felt like a fantasy story to her.
This made her admire her boss even more. She knew all of this was thanks to him, but for some reason, looking at his handsome side profile made her heart inexplicably start to race.
It had been like this before.
She didn’t know why it was happening; it had never been like this in the past.
"Where do you live? I’ll take you home," Chen Jincheng asked Zhu Ling after starting the car.
"Ah!" Zhu Ling snapped back to reality. She didn’t answer his question, instead asking softly, "Boss, can you take me for a drive?"
