Chapter 334: Boring Short Videos

Song Xia listened to Teacher Su's words and thought about it earnestly.

After a while, she exclaimed in surprise.

"What a great idea! This way, we can take advantage of the inexpensive pastries to attract a lot of customers."

"Besides, don't many coffee shops have set meals? I can create a pastry set meal too. This set meal would include a cup of coffee plus one or two pieces of pastry. In this set, we can set the price of the pastries at cost."

"However, the retail price of the pastries should be set a little higher. That way, if someone buys the pastries and coffee separately, the price will be higher than the set meal."

"Since the set meal price is low, many people will prefer to buy it. As long as the sales volume of the set meals increases, the sales volume of coffee will follow suit."

Su Dan nodded slightly as she listened.

"Set meals are indeed a good idea. We can also create several different sets—some cheaper, some more expensive—we should prepare both."

"But how should we solve the issue of the pastries?"

Song Xia suddenly encountered a problem.

Upon hearing this, Su Dan smiled faintly.

"Don't worry about that. When I was a trainer, I had contact with a pastry processing factory. I'll take care of it. You just need to think about the combinations for the set meals."

"Okay, Teacher Su."

Song Xia nodded, feeling relieved.

After thinking for a long time about how to solve the coffee shop's sales problem, she had finally come up with a pretty good idea today.

Nanhe Coffee finally saw a glimmer of hope.

She hoped this method could solve the issue of Nanhe Coffee's losses.

President Chen had handed Nanhe Coffee over to her for such a long time, and it had been in a state of loss ever since; she had been very anxious about it.

After all, aside from their superior-subordinate relationship, President Chen was actually her brother-in-law's younger brother.

If her family found out that she had caused Chen Mo's coffee shop to lose money, they would probably skin her alive.

She could already imagine her family's angry words.

"It wasn't enough for you to ruin your own milk tea shop, now you have to ruin Chen Mo's coffee shop too. You never learn your lesson!"

"Brother Shen, I heard that the performance report for selling study materials and stationery in the academic Livestream room is out?"

Wu Yu knocked on the door and walked into the office.

"I'm looking at it right now."

Li Shen looked up at Wu Yu, then gestured to the report in his hand.

This was an income report for Boring Short Videos. Although the revenue in this report was far from covering the current expenses of Boring Short Videos, it was already a very good start.

A while ago, after the academic Livestream rooms gained many users, they had launched corresponding study materials and stationery for sale.

These study materials and stationery were ensured to be problem-free.

Some time had passed since they were launched.

So, yesterday, he had asked his subordinates to compile the sales statistics for the Livestream rooms during this period.

After a while, Li Shen put down the report, a hint of joy appearing on his face.

After such a long time, Boring Short Videos finally had some revenue.

"How is it, Brother Shen?" Wu Yu asked, watching Li Shen's expression.

"See for yourself." Li Shen handed the report to Wu Yu.

Wu Yu curiously took it, opened the report, and scanned it quickly.

Soon, a joyful expression appeared on his face as well.

"Brother Shen, this academic teaching hasn't even fully spread yet. If we wait until these academic Livestreams are popularized nationwide, the revenue here will be unimaginable."

Wu Yu placed the report on the desk and said with a sigh of admiration.

Just a while ago, Boring Short Videos was still at zero revenue and constantly incurring expenses.

He didn't expect it to become profitable so quickly. Although it wasn't much right now, the potential was enormous.

"Popularizing it nationwide probably won't be something that can be completed in a short time, but the number of viewers will definitely increase."

Li Shen shook his head faintly upon hearing Wu Yu's words.

Boring Short Videos hadn't even started advertising yet; popularizing it nationwide was easier said than done.

However, he heard that Liu Weiwei had already gone to other cities with her roommate to promote it.

The method these two used to promote was very clumsy, but the results were surprisingly good.

As long as these two kept promoting, the users of Boring Short Videos would definitely increase, and basically, most of the users were watching the academic Livestreams. As long as the number of people watching academic Livestreams increased, the sales of stationery and study materials in the Livestream room would surely increase as well.

Overall, this was a virtuous cycle.

Moreover, he had been paying attention to some data within Boring Short Videos during this time. Apart from the increase in the number of people watching academic Livestreams, the number of people in some other types of Livestream rooms had also gradually started to increase.

It was obvious that they hadn't done any advertising. Among these people, besides those who downloaded it out of curiosity from software download platforms, most were brought in by those who watched the academic Livestreams.

After all, when someone thinks Boring Short Videos is good, they are very likely to recommend it to others.

Just like that, as the number of users watching academic content increased, it would drive others to download Boring Short Videos.

"Then how about we find a way to speed up the promotion? How about we recruit a few more students from Normal University and offer them the same terms? By then, those people will probably promote Boring Short Videos very actively, just like Liu Weiwei and her roommate."

"That's not a good idea. Those two, Liu Weiwei and her friend, have already broken the rule regarding increasing Livestream compensation. If we do too much of that, it might affect the platform's credibility in everyone's eyes."

"However, we could help Liu Weiwei and her friend by thinking of ways to see if we can help them speed up their promotion."

Li Shen rubbed his chin, deep in thought.

"By the way, report this matter to President Chen."

"I know, I'll have someone send the report up right away." Wu Yu smiled.

Boring Short Videos, which had always been spending money, suddenly had revenue; President Chen should be very pleased.

Chen Mo sat in his office, his eyes fixed intently on the computer screen, his hands constantly operating the mouse and keyboard.

On the computer screen, it showed a person with a gun on their back, running quickly through a forest.

Bang bang!

Suddenly, a series of gunshots rang out, and immediately after, the screen turned gray and white.

The person on the screen had been killed and turned into a loot box. Just a short distance away from the box, in the grass, someone quickly crawled up and then ran rapidly towards the box.

Chen Mo looked at the scene on the computer screen, angrily pushed the mouse aside, and slumped back in his chair.

Damn it. It's one thing to be backstabbed by a Lao Liu in reality, but I didn't expect to be ambushed and killed by a Lao Liu in a game too.

I hate Lao Lius.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, and finally, he just exited the game interface.

He had thought that during this period, all the companies had been steadily consuming the System Funds, so he had relaxed a bit.

He was planning to play games to relax, and after thinking about it, he downloaded Extreme Survival. Regardless, Extreme Survival was already profitable, and he couldn't change the outcome.

He might as well just enjoy it; after all, this game was quite fun in his past life.

He just didn't expect that even when playing a game, he could be ambushed by a Lao Liu.

"President Chen, this is the report submitted by Boring Short Videos."

Just as he was sitting in his chair, doubting his life, Shen Rou walked over and handed him the report.
