Chapter 345: Online Promotion

Everyone at Sheng Bai Shopping Mall goes to drink there.

Listening to what the consultant Linda said, Chen Mo fell into immediate silence.

There are quite a lot of people in this mall. If they all go to Nanhe Coffee to drink coffee, that would be no small amount of revenue!

Chen Mo looked at the coffee Linda handed him and sighed inwardly; this cup of coffee earned him 50 yuan.

Hmm! Wait, that's not right.

This flavor should cost 88 at Nanhe Coffee.

Thinking of this, he carried the coffee with a calm expression and walked out of the custom suit shop.

"President Chen, it seems our coffee is quite popular in this mall."

Shen Rou looked at the Nanhe Coffee in her hand and said with a joyful face.

Chen Mo remained silent and headed straight to a leather shoe store in the distance, where he bought four more pairs of leather shoes.

He didn't get the leather shoes customized; instead, he tried on a few pairs and then picked out four that fit well.

He spent a total of 150,000 yuan.

Then, he went to a watch store and purchased a watch for 60,000 yuan. Finally, he bought a few ties and some other work-related items, spending a total of 40,000 yuan.

After a series of purchases, basically everything he could buy had been bought.

A simple calculation revealed that he had only spent 650,000 yuan.

He hadn't even spent 1 million; that was far too little.

Chen Mo frowned slightly.

No, I must find a way to spend more. I have to spend at least 1 million. Otherwise, coming to this mall and walking around for so long would be a waste.

He cast his gaze around the mall, looking for other places to spend money.

Finally, his gaze settled on a fountain pen shop in the distance. This shop was an old brand, and the prices were not cheap.

Fountain pens! That seems to be an office necessity too.

Chen Mo thought to himself and found that the system did not intervene, meaning it was within the system's allowed range.

Since that was the case, why hesitate? He led Shen Rou directly into the fountain pen shop.

"Sir, is there anything you need?"

A shop assistant came up to greet them.

"Buying fountain pens."

Chen Mo glanced around the environment of the shop and said casually.

"Sir, please come with me. I'm not sure what price range of fountain pens you are looking for?"

The assistant asked casually while walking.

"The ones for 10,000 each."

Chen Mo said. This price was the highest amount he had tested from the system.

The shop assistant paused, looked at Chen Mo with some surprise, and then quickly changed direction, heading toward a counter on the other side.

"Sir, the fountain pens in this counter are all around the 10,000 price point."

Hearing this, Chen Mo looked down at the counter and saw about 10 fountain pens displayed inside, each looking unique.

After a quick glance, he finally chose a fountain pen priced exactly at 10,000.

"Sir, are you sure about this one?"

"Yes!"

"May I ask how many you would like to buy?"

"Two…"

Chen Mo stopped halfway. Since he could use a fountain pen for office work, his company managers would certainly need them too.

Since they need them, it wouldn't be excessive to buy one for each of them.

After all, having a good fountain pen makes one look quite prestigious when signing documents or contracts in the future.

Thinking of this, he pondered for a moment and then changed his tone.

"Let's just get 50."

The system would allow him to buy two, the managers could each have one, and as his dedicated assistant, Shen Rou would certainly need one too. Then there were the other important positions in the company.

For example, the Group's CFO, as well as the Legal Director like Tang Qiu, the HR Director…

These could all be considered important positions in the company; how could they not have a fountain pen to represent their status?

After calculating, it was exactly 50 pens; at 10,000 each, that was 500,000.

When he had this thought, the system did not stop him at all.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo was somewhat speechless.

He had a feeling that this system didn't seem to belong to him, but rather to his employees.

Those old employees, like Wei Yan, Fang Chang… their personal assets were already higher than his, the president of the Group.

"Ah, sir, are you planning to buy 5 or 50?"

The assistant looked at Chen Mo uncertainly.

Thinking to herself that she must have misheard, how could it be 50? That was unlikely.

"It is 50, not 5."

Chen Mo nodded and replied.

Upon receiving the definitive answer, the shop assistant's brain froze for a moment before she quickly snapped back to reality.

"Sir, please wait a moment, I'll go pack them for you right away."

Saying this, she walked into the back of the shop.

After a while, Chen Mo walked out carrying the bag of fountain pens and handed it to Shen Rou, who was following beside him.

"President Chen, what are these fountain pens for?"

Shen Rou took the pens and asked curiously.

"To distribute to the employees in the company. One of them is yours. When we get back to the company, arrange for someone to distribute them. I will give you the list later."

After saying this, Chen Mo walked toward the elevator. Now, he couldn't find any other places to spend money in the mall.

There was no need to stay any longer.

Shen Rou looked at the fountain pens in her hand and sighed inwardly.

President Chen was really too good to his subordinates; he just gave away fountain pens worth 10,000 yuan each like that.

…

Linshui City, Normal University, Women's Dormitory.

Liu Weiwei and Yang Yaoyao finished their respective livestreams for the day and exited the Livestream room.

"Yaoyao, someone has already accepted the task."

Liu Weiwei looked at her phone and looked at Yang Yaoyao with a surprised and happy face.

"How many people?"

"Only two, from the same city, they should be together."

"Two is not bad either, after all, this task was only posted a short while ago. As long as someone accepts the task, it proves this method is feasible."

Yang Yaoyao nodded.

Ever since they returned from promoting Boring Short Videos in other cities last time, they realized that running to each city to promote it was too inefficient. It was also extremely time-consuming. They didn't know how long it would take to promote Boring Short Videos to a certain level at this rate.

However, not long after they returned, they received a call from the Boring Short Videos platform.

After some communication, the manager named Li Shen told them they could try promoting it by posting tasks online.

In response to this, they began to learn about the mode of posting tasks online.

Finally, they confirmed that it was highly feasible. The results might not be as good as them promoting it personally, but the speed of promotion would definitely be much faster than them visiting each city in person.

After all, for them to go to other cities to promote, they needed to prepare a lot: itineraries, routes, time… preparing these things was very time-consuming.

But posting tasks online was different. They only needed to post the tasks on the task-posting website.

Just explain the task requirements clearly, and that would be enough.
