Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 203 203. Invitation to Promotion (seeking monthly ticket)
Li Xiao hurriedly followed. In my memory, Qiu Kui was such a carefree girl.

Usually, not only does she play well with the girls in the class, but also many male classmates can call her brothers.

If Li Xiao's memory is correct, he remembered that Qiu Kui had participated in several women's basketball games and won a second prize.

Even Li Xiao, who was somewhat taciturn, couldn't resist the other party's enthusiasm. Of course, because the other party had a wide range of friends, the two of them could only be ordinary friends at most. It really didn't matter how good the relationship was.

Although it was a class gathering this time, it was actually just a meeting of a small group. After all, including Li Xiao, there were only 11 people in total, not many people, and what they wanted was a small table in a corner.

Indeed, as Ding Yougang said, basically everyone present chatted with Li Xiao.

Li Xiao hurriedly greeted several people politely, which can only be described as polite here.

After all, apart from Li Xiao who kept in constant contact with Ding Yougang after graduation, the others only chatted a few words in the class group.

And now it has been 5 years since I graduated from high school, and 5 years can make many relationships become unfamiliar. Even friends who talked about everything at the beginning, after 5 years, I am afraid they can only become ordinary friends. .

Li Xiao looked around, and the appearance of everyone did not change much.

After all, most people only graduated from university for a year, and a year of social experience may change everyone, but the change is obviously not as big as expected, at least it will not make Li Xiao unrecognizable to everyone present .

Li Xiao's gaze finally fell on the girl in the field with long hair in a white coat.

The girl is still as simple as that, and her appearance is not considered beautiful. If ten is a perfect score, this girl can only get 6 points at most.

Slightly chubby, neither tall nor short, with normal facial features, except for bright eyes and a small dimple when he smiles.

Li Xiao had never seen her put on makeup before, and even today, the other party didn't seem to have much makeup on, or maybe the girl had put on makeup, but the light was a bit dim, so Li Xiao couldn't tell.

He was wearing a simple white jacket and plain black jeans.

She was simply among the crowd, but Li Xiao's eyes were consciously attracted to her.

Li Xiao showed a long-lost smile and said hello
"Hi monitor, long time no see."

The squad leader smiled on his slightly chubby face, with a gentle smile, showing dimples, and his tone was as gentle and calm as before
"Hello, Li Xiao, long time no see."

Her voice is neither ethereal nor tactful, but flat but very comfortable.

The crowd immediately booed, among them was a fat man who weighed at least 300 jins, with a malicious smile on his face, and started to tease

"Okay, Li Xiao, when you come here, everyone just nods and greets our squad leader. That's great."

"Tell me honestly, is it interesting to our monitor?"

Li Xiao hurriedly cupped his hands in a bow,

"It's not that the most important official here is our monitor. Alright, after saying hello to our monitor, it's your turn as a study committee member. Long time no see, Fat Brother."

After speaking, Li Xiao also greeted the rest of the people.

Seeing Li Xiao's performance, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. In their impression, Li Xiao was a taciturn guy.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiao could respond to Fat Brother's ridicule so smoothly. Everyone who wanted to see the joke looked at each other in blank dismay.

Is this change too big?

But soon everyone thought of themselves and the others who saw Li Xiao on the mobile phone live broadcast just now, and they realized that, yes, he is now an Internet anchor, and he doesn't have a certain eloquence, so he can't do well in the anchor business.

Everyone also immediately understood that this should be due to work, which has greatly changed Li Xiao's introverted personality.

At this time, a waitress next to me asked,
"May I ask what this guest would like to order?"

As he spoke, he handed over a menu.

Li Xiao glanced at the wine list handed over by the other party, and his finger landed on one of the cocktails

"This cup, thank you."

Sam's Bar is a bit different from ordinary bars, although it sells finished wine and pre-mixed wine.

But that is not the main project, the main project here is craft beer and various cocktails.

And this bar is quite formal, at least when Li Xiao is in the lobby, there are no little public servants with little fabric walking around, and there are no private rooms, no singing and dancing DJs, and no head-shaking atmosphere groups. , that is to say, this is a clean bar.

The atmosphere is relatively quiet, which is very suitable for friends to chat with each other, or some friends who have a good relationship come to talk about work.

It's not that Li Xiao has never been to a bar. When he was in college, the three brothers in the dormitory also took him out to see the world.

Of course, although the environment of the dormitory is a bit better than Li Xiao, they are just ordinary students. They just ordered some drinks and have no money to order other items.

And when he first entered the live broadcast industry, he also received some promotions from bars, so he was familiar with ordering food.

Without talking a few words, a few people brought the topic to the issue of asking Li Xiao to help the squad leader's new store to promote.

Li Xiao quickly patted his chest and said,

"This can only be regarded as a favor among friends, don't mention what is not publicized."

"Squad leader, please send me the information of your new store. I'll go back and study it, and I'll treat it as a friend. You can give me a discount when the time comes."

The squad leader's chubby face was slightly startled, as if she had never thought that such a situation might happen, she quickly waved her hand to refuse, and her usual flat tone was a little nervous

"How is this possible, this is not possible, this favor is too great, we just took a look at your live broadcast on the kitten platform, 17 people watched it online at the same time."

"And you are the most active today, but you are already ranked in the top 20 of the kitten live broadcast."

"I asked about the market before. An anchor with 300 million fans can earn 2 to [-] if he helps promote the live broadcast for [-] hours."

"Although your total number of fans is not as good as theirs, your live broadcast effect and popularity data far exceed these million-level anchors."

"According to your live broadcast popularity, a two-hour live broadcast is at least 10 to 15."

"This help, I dare not let you help for free."

Everyone did watch Li Xiao's live broadcast just now, but there were not many viewers left when they watched it.

After all, very few viewers will watch the entire live broadcast of an anchor, so when they click in before the end, they will see 17 online viewers in the live broadcast room.

However, even most of them don't have an intuitive concept when they see 17 online viewers. After all, in their cognition, the number of live broadcasts is too false.

Not to mention that the anchor will ask the robot to scan the data, many live broadcast platforms will even create false data themselves, creating a scene of their own platform, which is very popular, which can not only deceive investors, but also deceive the anchor and audience to enter.

People carry people in sedan chairs, and the more lively the place, the more people like to go there, so in the subconscious of the others, Li Xiao's 17 fans, if he can have one in [-] real users, it is very good.

But only people like the squad leader who have this need and have an in-depth understanding of market conditions and prices know it.

On the largest live broadcast platform in the country, such as Kitten Live, how terrifying it is to achieve such traffic. ,

That's why I directly quoted a price of 10 to 15 per two hours. However, in the eyes of others who have not known it, the price that the squad leader said is very outrageous.

To know that you can earn at least 10 in two hours, what is this concept? ?

That is, earn 5 yuan an hour? ?

The few people here are not fools, such arithmetic can still be easily calculated, and then everyone at the table gasped.

You must know that they are all college students who have just graduated, except for a few whose families have good financial conditions, such as the squad leader, who can directly rely on the money from their families to open a store.

The rest of the people basically rely on their own ability to go out to work, and their salary is at most six or seven thousand a month, and some people who work near home may only have five thousand or even less.

However, the income of Li Xiao, a guy who was unknown in high school, surpassed everyone all of a sudden.

Li Xiao's income from this two-hour live broadcast has surpassed their income for a whole year.

This gap is so big that everyone stands upright, and even the jealousy that might have appeared has disappeared.

Jealousy of someone usually appears in people who are similar to themselves, better than themselves, but not much different.

But the gap between Li Xiao and the others is too big to be jealous, they don't even know if they have a chance to reach [-] per hour in this life.

And judging from Li Xiao's tone, is it still necessary to directly waive the 10 yuan advertising fee? ?

This really made people a little dumbfounded, no one thought it was a joke, after all, there was no sign of a joke on Li Xiao's face.

But everyone soon became suspicious. In their impression, Li Xiao didn't seem to be too close to the class monitor, and at most they were just ordinary friends.

Unexpectedly, the current Li Xiao can actually waive the promotion fee of 10 yuan from an ordinary friend.

Some people's minds also became active, thinking about asking for some money to open a store at home, and asking Li Xiao to come over to promote it.

After all, if you don't take advantage of the 10,000+ bargain, aren't you a bastard?

However, they might not have imagined that if someone else spoke, Li Xiao would have no choice but to agree or not, let alone be free.

Even if he reluctantly agrees, he still has to charge money, at most it is the price for a classmate, a few thousand less, ten thousand less, the problem is not serious.

After all, he himself does not accept promotions. There is no comparison between an anchor who often accepts promotions and an anchor who never accepts promotions.

The promotion of the latter is much stronger than the former, so once in a while, the price is much higher than the market price.

The most important reason why Huang Gai was able to successfully deceive the suspicious Cao Cao with bitter tricks is because everyone knows that Huang Gai is a person who is not good at words and does not like to lie, and his honesty and honesty are well-known. Knowing, that's why it has the effect of deceiving at the critical moment.

And those anchors who don't often receive promotions are like Huang Gai, they cherish their reputation and will not accept promotions easily.

Then their promotion effect will be better, because the credibility will be higher, and everyone will trust you more.

And those anchors who are often promoted, even if they have a team to review.

However, as long as the number of promotions is large enough, there will definitely be problematic products, and there will be more and more problematic products.

In this society, others will not remember how many good things you have introduced, but will only remember that you once introduced a certain restaurant or a certain product that was quite poor, and various problems occurred.

So logically speaking, Li Xiao's live broadcast this time is worth far more than 15 yuan.

If Li Xiao is willing to accept commercial promotion in a big city, I am afraid that the first commercial promotion will be at least 20 yuan. If some larger chain stores may even be able to offer a price of more than 25 yuan, it is just for one or two games. hour live.

You must know that in this era where traffic is king, as long as there is enough traffic and popularity, even if you sell an empty box, there will be a lot of people queuing up to buy it, even if you want to sell a cup of ordinary milk tea that can no longer be ordinary, Some people are willing to queue for three or four hours. This is the power of public opinion, popularity and traffic.

The squad leader is unwilling to owe such a big favor to Li Xiao. Hearing that Li Xiao is unwilling to accept money, he shuts up. Asking Li Xiao to help promote the matter, Li Xiao can only smile helplessly, which is too sincere Bar.

Others always want to take advantage of it when they see an advantage, even if there is no way to take advantage of it, they will try their best to take advantage of it.

Her class monitor is good, and she is not willing to take advantage of her now that she is in front of her.

It was another battle of words and guns. Others' business negotiations were aimed at trying to maximize their own interests, but Li Xiao and the squad leader did the opposite.

They all want to try their best to get more benefits for the other party. One despises the other party for charging too little, and the other despises the other party's quotation for too high.

This reverse operation made the surrounding people dumbfounded. In the end, Li Xiao agreed to help with this live broadcast at a price of 8 yuan.

Of course, Li Xiao didn't intend to only broadcast live for two hours, he planned to see the specific situation of that day, and he hoped to help the monitor as much as possible to live broadcast for a while.

And the long-term live broadcast is nothing to him. He has practiced at the second uncle and third uncle's house in the past few days.

His vision is to extend at least two hours to five or six hours. Of course, if possible, it is not impossible to turn it into seven or eight hours.

After all, compared to the countless times of tutoring by the class monitor in the third year of high school, these few hours of help really pale in comparison.

At this moment, Li Xiao's Mojito was also served.

The squad leader looked at the cocktail falling in front of Li Xiang, showing a surprised expression, she chuckled lightly

"It turns out that you also like to drink this drink. I didn't expect our interest to be unexpectedly the same."

Only then did Li Xiao realize that the monitor and he ordered the same cocktail, both original Mojitos.

Mojito, a mint and lime-based cocktail with a dash of rum and a few ice cubes, has become one of the most sought-after cocktails.

This wine is the favorite of many lovers who are new to cocktails. Whether it is making or tasting, it is quite friendly to most beginners.

Because it is very simple to make, you only need to remember the recipe, and the liquor contained in it is only 45ml of white rum.

Compared with other cocktails that often use four or five kinds and the total amount of liquor reaches hundreds of milliliters, it can really be said to be one of the must-choices for beginners, and Mojito has quite a lot of flavors.

From the most basic to the mint lemon flavor, to strawberry, passion fruit, watermelon, raspberry, blue mandarin, everything.

However, the taste of most mojitos is quite fresh, sweet and sour, and the rich fruit flavor will always be the soul of mojito.

The mojito at Sam's Bar is quite substantial. When Li Xiao saw the product, she was still worried that such a big drink might make her drunk.

After all, most white rums have a degree of around 40-50 degrees. Although there are low-degree white rums with a lower degree of 30 degrees, and 65-degree white rums with a higher degree, these strange degrees are rare. use.

Although the glass of mojito in front of me should only use about 40 degrees of wine, but such a big glass of mojito, the alcohol content is probably indispensable.

Seeing Li Xiao's wine arrived, just as the matter was over, the squad leader smiled and stood up with dimples on his face again, holding a mojito of the same style as Li Xiao's and said to the people around him
"I'm very happy. After graduation, everyone can still get together and chat so happily. Let's have a toast to our three-year high school friendship, and also to Li Xiaoda's anchor, who can come to my side for a live broadcast on weekends."

The rest of the people also stood up quickly, holding their own cocktails, and clinking glasses one after another.

But after clinking glasses with the class monitor, Li Xiao realized that he was thinking too much. Although this glass of mojito was big, the alcohol content was not too strong.

In the 700ml cup, it is estimated that at most about 60ml of brandy rum base wine was used. In other words, the alcohol content is not even [-]%. It is no wonder that the squad leader can drink so lightly.

The business negotiations were over, and the rest of the people quickly returned the topic of discussion to 5 years ago.

As the topic progressed, they talked about who was admitted to the civil service, who went to which city to develop, who was married, and who was preparing for a third child in response to the national policy.

Li Xiao gasped when he heard that someone had already started a third child.

Although with his current financial situation, it is more than enough to have three children, but the key is that no one will have children with him.
Moreover, is this speed too fast?
Could it be that twins were born at once, and then a third was born within a year?
Everyone's gossip souls were also burning. This student who knew the inside story did not hide it. After all, it was not a secret that could not be revealed.

Everyone's attention immediately fell on this warrior who gave birth to three children just one year after graduation.

But in fact, this warrior is not, she gave birth to three just after graduation, but she dropped out of school when she was a freshman and gave birth to her first child.

I gave birth to my second child in my junior year, and then I dropped out of school completely to take care of the children at home, and then gave birth to my third child within a year after everyone graduated.

Moreover, this classmate lowered his voice mysteriously, for fear that someone nearby would hear, "This warrior with three babies is already preparing for a fourth one, as long as you understand the reason."

The surrounding people gasped several times, raising the temperature of the bar by several degrees.

The most incomprehensible thing about the other party's approach was the three girls present here, Qiu Kui, the monitor, and a girl named Shanyin.

Shanyin is not her full name, it's just her first name. As for her last name, I'm sorry to say it, Li Xiao really forgot.

If the time goes forward two or three years, Li Xiao should still be able to call the other party's name, but now it is not easy to remember her name is Shan Yin.

After all, Shanyin is not as lively and outgoing as Okra.

Not as quiet and generous as the squad leader, and because of the squad leader, he is often helpful.

She always speaks in a soft voice, and usually doesn't like to talk.

But as long as someone asks her for help or asks her to go out, she always agrees.

But even when she went out to play, she would sit alone in the corner and would not take the initiative to talk to anyone, but if someone came to chat with her, she would also be able to chat with the other party very well.

In fact, Li Xiao has always felt that the other party is a replica of himself, but the other party is a woman and he is a man.

Then someone asked,
"By the way, isn't Shanyin's factory just making snacks? Or let anchor Li Xiaoda bring you the goods??"

Li Xiao was a little taken aback, he really didn't know Shan Yin, let alone what business the other family was doing.

Shan Yin smiled shyly, and said with some embarrassment,

"I'm not sure about this. My father and my brother manage the factory, but I can ask my father if he has any needs in this regard. Do you want to leave a contact information? If necessary, I am here to contact Li Xiao Bar."

While speaking, he opened the QR code on his mobile phone and handed it to Li Xiao.

Did Li Xiao refuse? After all, even if she really wanted to refuse to bring the goods during a classmate meeting, it would be fine to talk about it later, but if she refused in public like this, it would be a bit of a slap in the face.

After scanning the QR code, Shanyin's account was added, and several other people, whether familiar or unfamiliar, also added Li Xiao's QR code.

This feeling of being watched by everyone is really strange. Although there are 10,000+ fans in his live broadcast room watching his live broadcast, the feeling is really different across a screen than face to face.

After all, today is a working day, and tomorrow is not a weekend, so at 10 o'clock, people began to apply to leave.

After leaving the two of them, the drinking situation this time also dissipated.
