This Bad Luck is Awesome!

What seemed like a bad thing for Chen Mo... wasn’t ever purely bad; it usually turned into something good.

For her, though, it was a completely good thing.

She felt that Chen Mo brought her good luck.

Her mother had once hired a fortune-teller for her, who said her future significant other was destined to bring his wife good fortune.

She had scoffed at it back then, thinking it was just some old-fashioned nonsense.

But now, she was starting to feel there might be some truth to the old traditions.

"Fine."

Chen Mo almost laughed. ’She’s trying to fleece me.’

"Alright, I’m heading out. I’ve got tomorrow off. After being so busy for so long, I can finally get a good night’s sleep."

Chen Mo waved goodbye to her and got into his car.

The two cars then drove away from the restaurant, one after the other.

Chen Mo didn’t go to the Carlton; he went straight home.

Miss Pan was on a seven-day cooldown, her track access temporarily revoked.

He messaged Xia Shiqing, but she replied that Mrs. Xia wasn’t feeling well, so she was at home taking care of her mom.

"We still have too few primary drivers."

Chen Mo said reflectively, lying on his sofa.

For a racing team to only have two primary drivers was unacceptable.

When it came time to hit the track, he had no one available.

’I’m such a failure as a team owner.’

"I need to deepen the bench."

Chen Mo mulled it over and finally came to a decision.

He wasn’t going to just fill the roster with unqualified people, though.

Any driver who wanted to join his team had to have high scores across the board.

With nothing else to do, he lay on the sofa and scrolled through TikTok.

As he scrolled, he came across a shopping livestream.

There were a lot of these e-commerce streamers nowadays, and it was said to be a very lucrative business.

He had never bought anything from a livestream before; he usually just swiped past them.

This time, however, he saw they seemed to be selling luosifen.

"Family, don’t miss out on this authentic Liuzhou luosifen from the Luo Yin Society!"

"Our luosifen is stinky and delicious, and super spicy. The flavor is so strong, it speaks for itself."

"It’s delicious and cheap, with big portions that will fill you up. We may be a domestic brand, but we’re not playing hard to get. You don’t need to work hard or get a raise to afford our stuff."

"Family, there are only 5,000 packs available! Act fast, they’ll be gone in a flash. We promise to ship within three days at the latest."

"Here it comes, here it comes! 3... 2... 1... drop the link!!!"

Chen Mo watched the stream and found it surprisingly interesting.

When you already know their whole script and sales pitch, watching it feels like you’re just there for the entertainment.

Just quietly watching them put on a show.

Especially after hearing the "3... 2... 1... drop the link!" part.

And with that, he’d seen enough.

Still, this guy was one of the top five e-commerce streamers.

The stream’s traffic was huge, with over 100,000 concurrent viewers.

As soon as the link dropped, a ton of people started placing orders.

"I trust Brother Da Niu!"

"If Brother Da Niu recommends it, it must be good."

"Brother Da Niu sold Luo Yin Society’s luosifen before. I’ve had it, and it’s seriously delicious."

"I bought 10 packs. Just waiting for them to arrive now."

"I’m working far from home and have been craving the taste of luosifen. Bought a few packs to try."

"..."

Many people in the stream started commenting right after placing their orders.

The comments instantly flooded the screen, scrolling by so fast you couldn’t read them; they were gone in less than a second.

This streamer, Brother Da Niu, was clearly very popular. He had a great reputation and a very dedicated following.

His fans were willing to trust and buy any product he recommended.

’Watching this stream actually made me hungry. It’s been a while since I’ve had luosifen, and now I’m really craving that addictive taste.’

’I’ll just buy a few packs.’

When Chen Mo saw the link pop up in the stream, he clicked on it and bought one bag, which contained five individual packs.

As for that claim about only having 5,000 packs...

By the time he placed his order, at least 50,000 had already been sold.

It just went to show that scarcity marketing never gets old.

"No wonder they say livestream e-commerce creates consumer demand."

Chen Mo couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh after placing his order.

He hadn’t planned on buying anything, but watching the stream for a few minutes had convinced him to place an order.

That’s creating consumer demand right there.
