Chapter 180

Chapter 180

The girls’ 500-meter race had the most participants, with a total of 20 groups, but after all, it’s only 500 meters, so the women’s race ended pretty quickly.

Then the boys’ 500-meter race began, and they definitely had better stamina than the girls, but there were still some who started walking after just 200 meters.

Although Ye Fanleng hadn’t arrived yet, the filming team had already started. There were representatives from the school, the local TV station, and even Ye’s company.

One was for school promotion, one for TV news material, and one for press conferences and promotions.

Xu Lin suddenly had a bright idea. These things from the school, aren’t they all excellent vlog material?!

But he didn’t have his phone with him today, and filming would also expose his situation. However, this also gave him some ideas.

Coming back from the future, he knew that whether it was Bilibili or other self-media websites, lifestyle content was definitely the main driver of traffic.

Just like how Bilibili transitioned from an ACG community website to a video platform, the once glorious animation and gaming sections gradually declined.

In its place emerged various vlog videos, ranging from simple life documentation to creative content and food videos, all encompassed within.

That’s also why he chose to film food videos. But ultimately, the goal for bloggers is to monetize, and there are many ways to do so.

The fastest and most common methods are undoubtedly through sponsorships and live streaming e-commerce. Sponsorships involve product placements in their own videos, categorized into soft and hard ads.

E-commerce involves promoting products for other brands or selling their own. Either way, the aim is to quickly convert influence into money.

So Xu Lin felt that even though it was 2013, live streaming was beginning to rise, but it hadn’t yet reached the era of short video apps.

Now, by laying the groundwork for live streaming e-commerce and managing short video apps in advance, perhaps it would yield considerable gains.

But he hadn’t even taken the first step in entrepreneurship yet with his hot pot restaurant. He could only take it one step at a time, but it’s best not to miss out on opportunities.

If all else fails, he could let Chu Fengyi handle it. After all, he saw the potential, and he couldn’t just let others take it away.

“Oh, Ji Yun, have you discussed that matter with Chu Fengyi?”

“What matter?” Ji Yun immediately put down her phone and leaned in.

“I want to start a small business.”

“A 10 billion yuan small business?” Xu Lin smiled at Ji Yun, who blushed immediately but then clenched her fist, looking confident.

“But I really think it’s feasible. I asked Sister Fengyi, and she thinks it’s possible too.”

“Yeah, I think it could work.”

“Chu Fengyi, how do you walk without making any noise? You scared me!”

Chu Fengyi came from behind, sat on the office chair, and then directly placed both of her little feet on the desk.

The teachers nearby exchanged glances, and then one of them shook their head.

“Okay, I’ll go find Li Bin and the others.”

“Go for it, be the first! Don’t embarrass your master; there will be rewards today, remember to update more.”

Chu Fengyi cheered, but still, she was engrossed in her novel, very indifferent.

However, Xu Lin felt that Chu Fengyi’s behavior represented a great deal of trust in his abilities, so he smiled and replied immediately.

“Master, I’ll do my best in the race, there’s no need to update more, besides, I’m the master in this matter, right?”

“Whatever.”

“Forget it.”

“Xu Lin, go for it!” Chu Qingchan also shouted, and Xu Lin nodded with a smile and stepped down from the platform.

After taking a few steps, before finding Li Bin and the others, he saw a gloomy figure approaching.

“Xu Lin, you did come to participate after all, ready to be beaten by me?”

“Darn it, can’t you stop being so edgy? What does winning or losing in a race matter anyway, it’s boring.”

Xu Lin waved his hand and continued walking forward, while Zhang Kang widened his eyes and quickly caught up.

“Xu Lin, she hasn’t agreed to be your girlfriend yet, right? If I win, you have to give her to me. You have no right to interfere if I pursue her!”

“Hey, Zhang Kang, let me say one thing to you.”

“If you truly like a girl, if you are truly sincere, you would never say such things! They are individuals, not something to be claimed by you or me!”

With that said, he pushed through the crowd, heading towards the sports field, afraid that he might throw a punch if he stayed a moment longer!

But Xu Lin also understood that there are plenty of idiots in this world, and people like Zhang Kang are not uncommon; there are already enough rotten people.

Zhang Kang looked at Xu Lin disappearing into the crowd, glanced back at Ji Yun on the platform, and clenched his fist.

Chu Qingchan also noticed what happened just now with Xu Lin, although she couldn’t hear the conversation, she could guess roughly what happened.

“That’s Zhang Kang, right? You told me last time how Xu Lin helped you avoid harassment.”

“Yeah.” Ji Yun nodded, without even looking at Zhang Kang, she kept staring at Xu Lin’s back.

She thought to herself, he hasn’t had any water, should I take a bottle of water to him? But it might seem strange if someone sees it... awkward...
