Chapter 509 - 270: Chen Jincheng Is Tiao Yin’s Number One
Prices always need to be flexible and adjust to the market.
Besides, the product hadn’t been released yet, so the public didn’t know their real pricing anyway.
Lei Xiaojun immediately raised his glass. "Mr. Chen, a toast to you."
Chen Jincheng smiled and clinked glasses with Lei Xiaojun.
"Mr. Chen, we’d like to toast you as well. Today was a real eye-opener," Wei Yuan and the others said, raising their glasses one after another.
After a few drinks, Lei Xiaojun couldn’t help but ask again, "Mr. Chen, based on the current numbers, do you think the orders from this video sale can break two million?"
Chen Jincheng laughed. "That’s hard to say. But I still have an ace up my sleeve. We can still give the public another jolt. President Wei, you can go ahead and expose that business with Fruit Phone."
"But don’t make it too obvious. It should look like someone else is just trying to ride the coattails of the hype. Even if you’re going to stir up trouble, you have to be smooth about it."
Wei Yuan immediately grinned. "Don’t worry, Mr. Chen. I’m good at this."
After discussing for a while longer, the two parties went their separate ways and left the restaurant.
Back at the hotel, Sister Feiye gazed at him with pure adoration the entire way.
Over 2.2 billion in sales. It was just too insane.
The key was, according to her boss’s estimate, that number would double by tomorrow.
"Don’t admire me so much. I’m afraid you’ll fall for me," Chen Jincheng teased.
"Boss, what if I’ve already fallen for you?" Sister Feiye said softly.
"Too bad!" Chen Jincheng opened his hotel room door. Sister Feiye followed him in and, before the door was even closed, threw herself at him.
By the time the door clicked shut, her defenses were completely down.
Although Chen Jincheng’s live stream was over, the uploaded video was just starting to ferment online.
Moreover, several other related topics were blowing up online.
For example: "Chen Jincheng’s Video Sale Breaks a Million Orders," "Lei Xiaojun’s First Live Stream," and "Lei Xiaojun and Chen Jincheng"...
This also drove a huge amount of traffic to the ad video Chen Jincheng had released, boosting the growth of orders.
Late in the night, articles denouncing Fruit Phone suddenly erupted online. With this kind of news breaking about Fruit Phone under such unique circumstances, it really provoked a lot of people and further fueled the sales of the Xiaomi 8.
Time passed.
The next day arrived.
Because Lei Xiaojun had been on the stream yesterday, quite a few celebrities and business owners had been lurking in Chen Jincheng’s stream.
The celebrities knew about video sales and were drawn in, wanting to see the numbers and find out why even a tycoon like Boss Lei had been captivated.
The business owners, on the other hand, were drawn there purely by Boss Lei.
After all, every move a tycoon of his stature made was scrutinized and studied by others.
So, the fact that Boss Lei would actually engage in this kind of video sale with an internet celebrity naturally made them curious about it too. They wanted to know why Boss Lei valued it so highly.
When they saw that the Xiaomi 8 phone had surpassed one million orders in a single live stream, everyone was truly stunned.
This was especially true for the business owners.
Most of their companies didn’t even necessarily reach 2 billion in annual sales, yet this Chen Jincheng had managed to sell over 2 billion in such a short time.
So, first thing in the morning, these people all rushed to check the data from Chen Jincheng’s video sale.
1,710,654!
4.161 billion.
Oh my god.
Everyone was floored by these numbers.
This video sale was probably going to break 2 million orders, and breaking 5 billion in sales would be no problem either.
It was terrifying.
The celebrities were just as shocked.
Xue Qian had been following the event. When he saw the numbers, he was so shocked that he swallowed a whole egg and nearly choked to death. The frightened Zhu Zhen next to him immediately rushed over to pat his back.
Master Yu had also been secretly paying attention. Now, seeing this sales volume, his eyes went wide with shock.
Sales figures like these felt like a joke.
More celebrities, however, started getting ideas. With 4.161 billion in sales, a 10% commission was over 400 million. That was far more profitable than acting in a movie or holding a concert.
How much could they possibly earn from working their asses off on a film or slogging through commercial appearances?
’If internet celebrities can make this kind of money, there’s no reason we celebrities can’t, right?’
In an instant, countless celebrities and artists had committed the name Chen Jincheng to memory.
’If I get the chance, I have to ask him for some pointers on this sales thing. Besides, doesn’t he have a Huawei Phone ad, too?’
Naturally, these sensational numbers had also captured the full attention of Tiao Yin users, internet celebrities, and MCN companies.
When they saw the data on the leaderboards, not a single person could remain calm.
Lin Hao had also made a rare trip home, and this time, he had brought Mikami Youya back with him.
His father had asked him to.
After all, her sales figures this time had reached 29.32 million, which was enough to prove her value.
Although he couldn’t marry her, his family had tacitly accepted her existence—just without a marriage certificate.
He had already discussed this with her. The "teacher" who had retired from the Island Country was very open-minded about it; in fact, being able to earn so much money was what made her even happier.
He and Mikami Youya had woken up early, and the moment he got to the living room, he picked up his phone to check.
He had had too much fun with Mikami Youya at home last night and hadn’t paid attention to Lao Cheng’s stream.
A moment later, he couldn’t help but exclaim, "Holy shit, Lao Cheng just blew the fucking sky up!"
Beside him, Lin Jian frowned. "What are you shouting about so early in the morning?"
Lin Hao, his face a mask of shock, said, "Lao Cheng did a video sale for the Rice Phone yesterday. The sales are at 4.161 billion now. At this rate, breaking 5 billion will be no problem."
"What did you say?" Lin Jian was stunned, even suspecting he had misheard.
He used Tiao Yin now too and knew how to check the rankings. A moment later, he saw the two leaderboards for the shopping cart feature. When he saw the numbers, his eyes went wide.
He knew from his son that this Chen Jincheng was impressive, but he had never imagined he would be this terrifyingly so.
"Lao Cheng has to be the number one brother of Tiao Yin now," Lin Hao couldn’t help but say.
Who would even dare to think of competing with Lao Cheng?
And it was true. Early in the morning, all of Tiao Yin’s top-tier streamers, including those currently popular in PK battles, saw the data and were completely convinced.
From now on, probably no one would dare claim to be the number one brother of Tiao Yin. If they did, they’d just get slapped in the face with Chen Jincheng’s achievements.
At least, that would be the case until Chen Jincheng’s next video sale or one of his plans flopped.
But immediately after, they too were drawn in by Chen Jincheng’s numbers.
’Is money really this easy to make?’
Although they couldn’t achieve Chen Jincheng’s results, the profits in this track were enormous. One by one, they all began to get started on their own video sales.
And this would also hasten the arrival of certain events that were bound to happen.
At Second-Life Star, Sister Hong arrived at the company office early in the morning and also saw her boss’s sales data.
She knew it as well: her boss had won a landslide victory this time. There was absolutely no question he was the number one brother of Tiao Yin now.
And Second-Life Star’s fortunes would rise with the tide.
With that thought, Sister Hong started processing her emails. But suddenly, the senders of a few emails made her stop in surprise. ’Why are these people getting involved in the internet celebrity scene?’
’The boss is already such a scumbag. Are they coming to give him a change of pace?’
