Chapter 409 You...you are Chen Jincheng?
However, Qin Ke was still annoyed, but he didn't dare to show it, mainly because he was afraid that the other party would film it and exaggerate it, or that the other party would say something wrong and be misunderstood by the other party's fans during a live broadcast.
Then people will really smear him.
This flagship store wasn't doing very well to begin with, so we might as well just close it down.
Chen Jincheng could easily see through the other person's intentions, and he could understand them, since many food bloggers these days do indeed lack integrity in their work.
So he smiled and asked Qin Ke, "May I ask your name?"
Qin Ke answered truthfully: "I am Qin Ke, the owner of this Qingyun brand. I apologize for the trouble caused by a problem in the store."
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "President Qin, perhaps I can help you."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ke thought to himself that this was indeed the purpose. He said he would help him, and now he should bring up the issue of filming a video and giving him sponsorship fees, right?
He immediately made up an excuse: "Sir, I'm so sorry, there's a problem with our store, we're closed today."
Regardless, let's try to fool them away first.
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "President Qin, it's okay if we're not doing business. We can chat. Would you mind introducing your elegant dress to my live stream viewers?"
"..." Qin Ke was momentarily embarrassed.
The other party has him pinned down.
But if I refuse even this request now, their fans might say I'm looking down on them, and I'll get attacked again.
These internet celebrities can be really hard to deal with if they get shameless.
He could only sigh and walk over to the other person.
Forget it, I'll just lend them a formal suit for filming a video.
Anyway, that's probably their goal.
But when he saw the audience in Chen Jincheng's live stream, he was dumbfounded or his eyes widened.
75+ online viewers.
Moreover, the moment he looked, it jumped to over 76 views.
The data is still increasing.
Viewers in the live stream naturally saw Qin Ke's dumbfounded expression and flooded the chat with teasing comments:
"Haha, he seemed to have mistaken Cheng for a fraudster just now, but now he's dumbfounded when he sees the number of viewers in the live stream, right?"
"Boss, with such a powerful figure right in front of you, why aren't you clinging to him?"
"He is Chen Jincheng!"
"His expression of instant dumbfounded was comparable to a god-level face change."
"This boss is Chen Jincheng!"
"..."
Qin Ke saw the dense barrage of comments, but he couldn't care less about the fact that many of them were teasing him. Seeing the comments reminding him, he looked at Chen Jincheng next to him in astonishment: "You...you are Chen Jincheng?"
He simply couldn't believe that Chen Jincheng would actually come to his company's flagship store.
He naturally knew who Chen Jincheng was.
Douyin's number one brother.
He is still the boss of Ershixingchen.
He would find other food bloggers' visits to his shop extremely annoying, but he couldn't be happier with Chen Jincheng's.
All the other party has to do is shoot a video, and their store gets some exposure; that's more effective than any advertisement.
Think of the Zhaolang Hotel in Sanya. It was lukewarm at first, but after Chen Jincheng filmed a promotional video, it has now become one of the most famous hotels in Sanya.
Today, Chen Jincheng actually came to his shop. Is he having a stroke of good luck?
In just a moment, after learning Chen Jincheng's identity, his mindset underwent a complete 180-degree turn.
Chen Jincheng wanted to film a video, so he would send over any formal wear from his store or even his company that the other party wanted. He would even pay them for advertising.
If we could also get them to do a video sales promotion, that would be even better.
Moreover, the beautiful girl in front of him was clearly not any of the previous Cheng girls; she was his newly acquired girl.
This new girl is sure to attract a lot of attention.
Rumors are circulating online that Chan Kam-ching always arranges two videos for each new "Cheng Girl," and that these two videos are meticulously planned by him and are guaranteed to go viral.
That's been their past record.
Suddenly, he looked at Chen Jincheng with a hint of obsequiousness: "Mr. Chen, I never expected you to come to our company's flagship store. It is truly an honor for us. You are very welcome."
The staff in the store were all stunned when they saw this.
This boss's mood changes way too fast!
The weather instantly cleared up.
The manager, who was being thoroughly scolded, opened her mouth, as it was the first time she had ever seen her boss like this.
The live stream viewers were bombarded with comments; they had just witnessed the other person's disdainful expression and their attempt to find an excuse to refuse.
At this moment, Chen Jincheng took off his mask and asked Qin Ke, "President Qin, perhaps we can have a proper talk?"
Qingyun is a very good dress brand, and it is also a well-known domestic brand that can compete with foreign dress brands. This is why he approached Qingyun.
In the previous life, after this video of growing up in one second went viral, followers flocked to it, and countless people made copies. For a time, Douyin was full of this kind of video, which also boosted the sales of formal wear.
Therefore, instead of letting well-known foreign brands benefit from this, it would be better to give the advantages to domestic brands.
Moreover, Qingyun is a local formal wear brand in Linhai City.
It just depends on whether this Mr. Qin is sensible or not; otherwise, there's no reason for him to rush over to offer benefits to the other party.
As Chen Jincheng removed his mask, the store employees stared wide-eyed in disbelief. They clearly recognized him.
"It's Chen Jincheng!" a girl couldn't help but exclaim.
"It's him!"
"Really, what's he doing in our store?"
"..."
The other saleswomen were also incredible.
Chen Jincheng is very famous now and has a lot of online traffic. Even if you are not a fan, many people have seen his videos.
That's just how they are.
Moreover, the presence of such a celebrity in the store would evoke a strange sense of excitement even for those who weren't fans, prompting them to immediately take out their phones and start taking pictures of Chen Jincheng.
Chen Jincheng noticed them and waved back.
We asked them to shoot and upload videos, which served as a good way to generate buzz for the video.
Qin Ke immediately invited, "Mr. Chen, let's talk in the reception room inside. What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and pour some tea. Do I really have to do this myself?"
The manager realized what was happening and immediately went to make tea.
Chen Jincheng followed Qin Ke into the reception room. After they sat down, the manager in charge brought over two cups of tea and said respectfully, "Mr. Chen, please have some tea."
Chen Jincheng nodded, accepted the tea from the other party, and took a sip.
Qin Ke, however, became somewhat anxious and expectant. This scene was noticed by the viewers in the live stream. At this time, the number of viewers in Chen Jincheng's live stream had reached over 100 million.
When he started broadcasting, Douyin began promoting his channel. It was inevitable that Douyin would promote it for him; otherwise, Douyin was afraid that he might have some ulterior motives.
So he also said, "President Qin, my live stream now has over 100 million viewers, all waiting for you to talk about Qingyun dresses."
"One million?" Qin Ke was immediately surprised. Just that many people—even a few words about Qingyun dresses would be a form of advertising. He immediately became a little nervous: "Mr. Chen, Qingyun is a relatively well-known dress brand in China… Our design concept… is…"
He was clearly speaking rather hastily.
After all, with wealth and fortune falling from the sky, how could one not be eager?
This is like an ordinary person winning 500 million.
If he can reach an agreement with this person to sell products via video, then he will be no different from an ordinary person with 500 million.
His hurried manner amused the more than one million viewers in the live stream.
This General Manager Qin had completely lost the authority he had shown when scolding his employees; he was acting like a primary school student reporting his homework to his teacher.
The comments section also erupted with playful banter:
"Haha, are you nervous facing over a million people online?"
"I checked, and it turns out that Qin Ke's Qingyun is doing quite well. I didn't expect him to be so nervous in front of Cheng."
"Cheng's status and position are indeed different now."
"..."
After Qin Ke finished introducing Qingyun Dress, he hurriedly asked Chen Jincheng, "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry to have made you laugh just now. This flagship store is not doing well and business is a mess. However, our company's other flagship stores are doing quite well, not only in the districts of Linhai City, but also in other cities."
"However, the development of Qingyun has always been limited, suppressed by those high-end foreign brands. But our designs are definitely no worse than those brands. If there is an opportunity, I wonder if we can cooperate further?"
Hearing this, Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "President Qin, actually, I came out today just to help my newly signed artist shoot a video and earn some pocket money for her. I'm also looking for companies we can collaborate with to create a video advertisement related to dresses. If possible, we can also do some video-based product promotion."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ke eagerly replied, "Yes, yes, Mr. Chen, our company is very willing to cooperate with you. The advertising fee is negotiable; I'm willing to give this lady 500 million as an appearance fee, how about that?"
"Moreover, I'm willing to offer discounts for video e-commerce, please give me a chance."
When the number 500 million was announced, Chu Xiaoqing's eyes widened instantly, and her mouth gaped open.
She had envied her younger sister for winning a 300 million yuan prize, which is why she wanted to become an internet celebrity.
She never expected that when her boss took her out to film a video, someone would offer her 500 million yuan as an appearance fee. She felt like she was dreaming.
The viewers in the live stream all saw her stunned expression, and the atmosphere became chaotic again.
"Look, even the new Miss Cheng is stunned by President Qin."
"Even winning the lottery only amounts to 500 million, but this girl gets this kind of appearance fee just by becoming a Cheng Girl. Cheng is really something else."
"Seriously, I want to become a beautiful woman and then go find Cheng to be a Cheng Girl, that's 500 million!"
Chen Jincheng's live stream still has many female viewers, and they were all extremely envious when they saw this scene.
The prize money for the "Cheng Girls" was already enviable, as each "Cheng Girl" received several million yuan at once.
Now it seems that those bonuses weren't all they made from Chen Jincheng. Didn't you see that this new Cheng Girl got a 500 million appearance fee on her first appearance? Even after taxes and the company's cut, she still got a lot, right?
Moreover, if Chen Jincheng really promotes products through Qingyun's videos, given his past sales data, it would be terrifying, and her commission would definitely be substantial, right?
Seriously, I'm so envious.
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "President Qin, Xiao Qing is just a newcomer with little popularity. She doesn't deserve such a high appearance fee."
Qin Ke hurriedly said, "Mr. Chen, you're joking. Miss Xiao Qing is a Cheng Girl, how could she not be popular? I know the value of the title Cheng Girl. If I say 500 million, then I mean 500 million. I hope Mr. Chen can see my sincerity."
He was just telling the truth: a new internet celebrity is not worth 500 million, not even 5000.
But this newcomer is different because she's a "Cheng Girl." Not only does she have the buzz brought by Chen Jincheng, but she also has Chen Jincheng personally planning the advertisement. The resulting advertisement is definitely worth 500 million.
If other competitors find out, they'll probably all rush to snatch it away, so he's hoping to finalize the deal as soon as possible.
Upon hearing Qin Ke's slightly ingratiating words, the live stream audience was flooded with a barrage of comments:
"sensible!"
"sensible!"
"... "
In an instant, the entire live stream chat was filled with the word "sensible".
