Huayu 2007, Cultivation Superstar

Chapter 204: "Preference" MV is a big hit, and the company's valuation soars

……

"Honey, what kind of perfume do you like?"

After parking the car downstairs, Lu Feng was about to go upstairs when Yang Mi suddenly called him and asked a mysterious question.

"I don't like perfume. I have an allergic reaction to it."

Lu Feng shook his head seriously, then added: "I advise you not to use it. You already have a bit of rhinitis, be careful not to aggravate the symptoms."

Are you kidding me?
You clearly want to mess with me!
After you sprayed perfume on me, how could I explain this to Liu Shishi? Wouldn't she sing "Perfume is Poisonous" for me?

"Oh."

Yang Mi nodded, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

This damn thing is so alert?

But what is perfume?
If I really want to mess with you, believe it or not, I will put fluorescent powder on that small place and leave you speechless!
……

Go home.

Lu Feng found that Reba seemed very happy today. She was on the balcony, humming a song and doing aerobics.

"Brother, are you back?"

Seeing Lu Feng coming back, Reba hurried to her room and took out a piece of clothing.

"Brother, this is the Pikachu pajamas I bought for you. Didn't you say last time that my pajamas were cute and wanted me to buy you the same one?"

"Hehe, when I went shopping this afternoon, I happened to see the same thing. Isn't that a coincidence?"

Is this a coincidence?
You're clearly trying to mess with me!
If I wear couple pajamas with you, Xiaoqin will definitely find out when we return to school.

How will I explain it then?

Lu Feng complained in his heart, but a touching expression appeared on his face: "Reba, you are so thoughtful. After such a long time, you still remember this."

Reba smiled shyly and pushed Lu Feng into the room: "Brother, go try it on. I've agreed with the store that if the size is wrong, you can exchange it."

"Good good."

The clothes have been bought, what else can Lu Feng say?
I went back to my room and changed into this pajamas. It was really comfortable to wear. The material was very soft and the size was just right.

It just looks a bit childish.

After a while, Lu Feng walked out the door. When Reba saw Lu Feng dressed as Super Pikachu, she immediately covered her mouth and laughed.

"Boss, you're so cute."

Even Xu Dongdong, who was busy in the kitchen, came over to watch the fun and couldn't help laughing.

Just like what Zhao Ruoyao said, the boss Lu Feng is indeed very easy-going.

He doesn't have any star airs at all.

When working outside, Lu Feng likes to act arrogantly and pretend to be a melancholy nobleman, which makes him look very stylish.

However, when he returned home, especially when he was with Reba, Lu Feng stopped pretending and became like a child who had never grown up.

Xu Dongdong likes this working atmosphere very much.

Easy.

"By the way, Xiao Xu, school starts next week. Do you want to go back to school to register? If you do, we'll go to Shanghai together in two days, and you can transfer there."

"thank you boss."

Xu Dongdong only has one year left before graduation, so there should be nothing wrong with going back to school, but he still needs to go to school once to sign in.

The same goes for Lu Feng.

I have to report back to school and ask for a long vacation.

Otherwise, according to the strict requirements of Shanghai Theatre Academy, his graduation might be delayed.

Of course, the most important thing is that Reba is about to start school, and Lu Feng is a little worried, so he has to send Reba to school personally and arrange everything.

"Okay, let's eat."

After a period of training from Reba, Xu Dongdong's cooking skills have improved. Most importantly, the saltiness, sourness and spiciness of the food are exactly in line with Lu Feng's taste.

Dinner consists of four dishes and one soup. It is not very rich, but nutritionally balanced.

This silly girl Reba deliberately went back to her bedroom before dinner and changed into her Pikachu pajamas.

So, at this moment, two Pikachus, one big and one small, were lying there eating, and the two ears on their hats were shaking.

It looks really fun.

When Xu Dongdong came out of the kitchen, he saw the two of them and found them very interesting.

"Boss, Reba, can I take a picture of you two?"

It is conceivable that when Lu Feng becomes a big star in the future, this photo will become very memorable.

Of course Lu Feng didn't object.

Reba shouted, "Sister Xu, hurry up and don't give Lu Feng a chance to escape."

"Right away."

Xu Dongdong quickly took out a Nikon camera and took several pictures of the two of them.

In one of the photos, Reba was deliberately making a funny move, pulling Lu Feng’s Pikachu pajamas and the two ears on his hat.

Lu Feng cooperated, staring with his eyes, as if Pikachu was about to generate electricity.

“They have a really good relationship.”

Xu Dongdong used to suspect that Lu Feng and Reba were having a secret relationship, and that the relationship of being brother and sister was probably fake to cover up the truth.

But after living with these two people for more than a week, I found that Lu Feng and Reba’s relationship is better than that of real siblings.

……

time flies.

Soon, it was the start of the school year.

The MV for the song "Preference" was produced in just one week because Lu Feng paid them more money to hurry up.

Jiuyutianxia spent millions of dollars to promote the MV of this song.

The MV of the song "Preference" directly rushed into the top three of the music video charts, and people were listening to this song everywhere in the streets and alleys.

Under normal circumstances, Jiuyutianxia would certainly not spend so much publicity money on the MV of a song.

"Guest" is different, it was Lu Feng's debut song, and it was about becoming an instant hit.

Now, Lu Feng is already very popular, and his songs can just be ranked normally, there is no need to do this, hard work can make miracles happen.

But Lu Feng rarely asked Li Songqiang for help, hoping to promote this song as soon as possible.

As the boss of Jiuyutianxia, ​​Uncle Biao is very willing to spend money.

After all, Lu Feng helped him make tens of millions in the financial market, and he had always wanted to give Lu Feng a gift, but Lu Feng had nothing to lack.

Uncle Biao had originally prepared tens of millions of yuan, waiting to film Ling Yiyao's movie for Lu Feng. However, he couldn't find a reliable director for the movie, and his money has been lying in the bank for half a year.

If Lu Feng wants to promote the MV of a song, does he only need to spend millions on marketing?
What's there to say?

Hit it hard for me!

……

"If I'm wrong, I'll take responsibility."

"Believe that you are the answer."

"I'm not afraid of anyone laughing at me for being extreme."

……

On the way from Hengdian to Shanghai, Lu Feng turned on the FM103.2 music radio. Every once in a while, someone would call in and request a song called "Preference".

The frequency is quite high.

Lu Feng was very happy.

Judging from the frequency of song requests, this song must be very popular.

At this time, Zhao Ruoyao called and said, "Boss, the supermarket distribution agreement has been finalized. It's all thanks to your music video."

"Boss, the music video is so popular, the crab cakes are selling like hotcakes. I think the factory's current production capacity is totally insufficient. Do you want to buy another processing plant?"

Zhao Ruoyao had never realized before that running a food factory was so profitable!

It's much better than being a star.

Of course, the main reason is that Lu Feng is awesome and can sell the goods himself.

Before the MV became popular, no one bought Lu Feng’s crab roe cakes. His Taobao shop had only been open for more than a month, but only received more than 100 orders.

But after the MV appeared on the music video charts, it received more than 10,000 orders that night, becoming an instant hit.

"Boss, I heard that you wrote the script. You are so talented."

"After Mimi acted in that music video, she told me that she was a little obsessed with it. She even dreamed about selling crab roe cakes with you."

After the supermarket's distribution agreement was finalized, the supermarket's purchasing department placed numerous orders with Lu Feng's food company. In addition, many other food companies also approached Zhao Ruoyao, hoping to have Lu Feng as their spokesperson.

If possible, they would like Lu Feng to help them write a similar song and produce a high-quality MV related to the product.

Let’s not talk about Lu Feng’s songs for now, but his level of MV production is simply overwhelming the entire Chinese music scene.

Other people’s MVs are basically just cutscenes. Who would spend so much time and effort like Lu Feng to turn the MV into a beautiful love story?

The MVs of the two songs "Guest" and "Lie" are already very popular.

The story is very touching.

Listening to the song and the story in the MV makes people feel sad and full of emotion.

However, the story lines of the music videos of these two songs are basically targeted at urban white-collar youths, especially those with a petty-bourgeois temperament.

The MV of the song "Preference" is basically the same and moved everyone.

Although the MV of this song depicts the story of two young lovers who sell crab roe cakes after losing their jobs, the underlying theme is a positive energy story of ordinary people working hard in a big city and young couples working together to create a better life.

If this story was not false, Lu Feng's name would definitely be among the top ten people who moved China this year.

Although the story is fake, the song is real, and the [Qinqin Crab Roe Pastry] is also real.

In addition, after the MV of this song became popular, netizens soon discovered that Lu Feng really opened a food company.

This caused those who listened to the song to be confused for a moment as to whether the story in the MV was true or false.

After all, [Qinqin Crab Roe Pastry] is really available at their store and on the shelves of the supermarket downstairs!

The story in the MV, has it come true?

This is so dramatic!
For a while, although the Mid-Autumn Festival had not yet arrived, the crab roe cakes were already sold out.

Early in the morning every day, crab roe cakes fill the shelves of nearby supermarkets. By the time work is done in the evening, the crab roe cake counter is basically empty.

They were all snatched away.

After all, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. When you go to the home of your future father-in-law and mother-in-law with your girlfriend, you have to buy some souvenirs, right?
I can’t afford things that are too expensive, and I feel embarrassed to buy things that are too cheap.

Crab roe cakes are originally a niche product, and not everyone likes this taste.

However, after Lu Feng added a romantic true love story, it suddenly became very popular.

Moreover, everyone who has eaten it says that the taste is very authentic.

In this way, this crab roe pastry meets all the factors to become a hit.

It has traffic, reputation, demand, and a high cost-effectiveness ratio.

The only thing that limits the sales of crab roe cakes is that the factory’s production capacity is insufficient, and it can only produce 10,000 boxes a day.

Even though the factory has offered high overtime pay and made workers work in three shifts 24 hours a day, it really cannot squeeze out more production capacity.

After all, people can live without rest.

The machine doesn't work.

You always have to stop to let the heat dissipate, add some lubricant or something.

……

at the same time.

Li Xiaoqin, who was packing clothes at home and preparing to go to school tomorrow, received many calls from people.

"Xiao Qin, when will you come to school? The crab roe cakes that Lu Feng made for you are so romantic. The supermarket near the school just put them on the shelves and they were sold out immediately. I couldn't even get one if I wanted to."

"Xiao Qin, when are you and Lu Feng getting married? Remember to invite me to the wedding. I want to be a guest, and then I'll sing a song 'Guest' for Lu Feng from the audience. Don't be jealous. Haha..."

"Xiao Qin, you have to be careful of the actress in the music video, her name seems to be Yang Mi. I feel like she doesn't act. The way she looks at Lu Feng is a bit unclear. Also, there are reports on Tianya that Yang Mi used to have two bodyguards around her when she was filming on the set. They were arranged by Lu Feng."

These calls were all from Li Xiaoqin’s good friends at school.

Whether sincere or insincere, either to congratulate or to cause trouble for Li Xiaoqin.

To be honest, they were very jealous of Li Xiaoqin.

But there was no way, Lu Feng had set his eyes on Li Xiaoqin, and no one else could pry her away.

Now, after watching the MV of the song "Preference", I guess even if someone drives an excavator, they probably can't dig out Li Xiaoqin's wall.

The story in the MV may be fake, but the whole world can see Lu Feng's love for Li Xiaoqin.

Let me ask you, is there any man in the world who would be like Lu Feng, create a brand for his girlfriend, then take the trouble to write a song, and then create an MV story to make this brand popular?

And this brand is named after your girlfriend?
If there is a scoring standard for ordinary people's romance, with a full score of 100, Lu Feng's behavior can definitely get 1000 points!
Anyway, after watching the plot of the MV, Li Xiaoqin was completely immersed in it and was already addicted to it.

Now, the whole town in her hometown knows that she will definitely marry Lu Feng.

When walking outside, people don’t say that Li Xiaoqin is good at singing Kunqu Opera, but rather say that she has good taste. Why did she choose Lu Feng at first sight?

Look at the factory that Lu Feng opened for her. It works in three shifts every day. People from shopping malls and channels are waiting at the door early in the morning to grab orders.

The first thing Li Xiaoqin's father does when he goes to work every day is to comfort those people. When he arrives at the company, he answers the phone every day and can even close his eyes and say the same thing mindlessly.

"I'll give you the next batch. It's no use blocking me. I really don't have any goods."

It’s very popular.

What a happy trouble.

Who would have thought?
At first, they thought that the factory might not lose money, but it probably wouldn't make much money either. After all, doing business is never that easy.
It's all done step by step.

In the first year, as long as you don’t lose too much, it’s considered a success.

In the second year, we made a small profit, took steady steps, and established a good reputation, which was already very good.

It's better now.

Less than two months after the factory opened, the goods were already sold out, and demand could not keep up with supply. Every morning when he woke up, he would be busy counting the money and wondering how much money he had made that day.
Ten thousand boxes a day, the gross profit of each box is about 20 yuan.

That’s 20.

Excluding the depreciation of machinery and factory buildings, workers' wages, and various taxes, the daily profit is definitely more than 10.

This month, that’s more than 300 million!
Not 3000 million a year?
Of course, Li Xiaoqin's father also knew that business couldn't always be this good. After all, crab roe cakes are a seasonal product.

It is more popular during the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day.

But even so, in normal months, we should be able to make a profit of more than 100 million per month.

On average, that’s about 2000 million a year, right?
For food companies, the biggest expense is marketing costs, but with Lu Feng, a traffic idol and marketing genius, the expenditure in this area is almost zero.

This is the core competitiveness of their company!

"Xiao Qin, my precious daughter, you must hold on to Lu Feng. Some things are better left unseen. All men are the same."

Recently, some gossip has also reached the ears of Li Xiaoqin's father.

That is to say, Lu Feng was fooling around in Hengdian and had some messy relationships with the actresses in the crew...Anyway, for things like this, it's easy to spread rumors, but it's very difficult to refute them.

There's absolutely no way to refute that.

Could it be possible that they could go to Hengdian and keep an eye on Lu Feng every day?

A month ago, the old couple did have some complaints.

After all, when "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was broadcast, Lu Feng had a kissing scene with Liu Shishi.

After a while, he was still hyping up his relationship with Qi Wei?

The old couple had only one daughter. When they saw Li Xiaoqin was depressed, they were of course angry and complained to Guo Lufeng.

But now, crab roe cakes make tens of millions in profit a year.

Lu Feng unconditionally gave them 20% of the shares, and they could get millions in dividends by the end of the year.

Not to mention, the most important thing for a food company is the brand. Under Lu Feng's operation, the brand [Qinqin] has become a hit.

If we go by the valuation in the capital market, the valuation of their company, just for one crab roe cake, is already over 100 million.

"Xiaoqin, if the company develops smoothly, we can go public by the time you graduate from university. By then, it will be worth at least 10 billion."

"The shares held by Mom and Dad will all be yours from now on, and half of Lu Feng's shares will also be yours. With this calculation, your net worth is over 5 million, and you won't have to worry about anything in your life."

Li Xiaoqin's parents are really happy for their daughter.

Originally, because of Lu Feng, their daughter refused to go to Rong Xinda to be a star, and they felt a little regretful.

Now, they want to slap themselves.

If she becomes a star, with Li Xiaoqin's cold and aloof personality, can she earn 10 billion?
Lu Feng just gave them an idea and they took off on the spot.

Now, the suppliers and distributors who come to curry favor with them every day can break down the door of their house.

As for Lu Feng having an affair with other actresses in the crew?

Is this even a big deal?
Lu Feng can have fun, but he can’t bring those women home... Otherwise, grandma will break Lu Feng’s legs!
"Dad, Mom, I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to school tomorrow. I'm going to tell grandma."

Li Xiaoqin heard the subtext of her parents' words, which seemed to be that Lu Feng was having an affair with a mistress outside, and for the sake of money, they told her not to care.

She was speechless, feeling that her parents' expressions changed too quickly.

However, she was also a little shy.

Suddenly I had a feeling that I seemed to have married Lu Feng.
