Rebirth of a Top Student's Handbook

Seeing that Li Na had already started working, Zhou Min turned to Chen Sheng and asked, "Continue from where you left off."

"Uh..." Chen Sheng took a moment to process what he had said before finally remembering where he had just been.

"The idea is to first attract traffic with free, high-quality courses, then use that traffic to make money from institutions. In addition, we can sell various useful plugins to institutions as needed, charging them a certain technical fee..."

After Chen Sheng finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Min and added, "However, all of this is based on the premise that we have enough traffic and that the platform's technology and operations can support it."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Min nodded and said, "I understand."

Zhou Min's original plan was simply to create a template for an online education website and then upload some free public welfare courses.

Then they find organizations that are interested in developing online education businesses, charge them, and help them customize online education websites.

Zhou Min originally just wanted to use computer technology, along with some ideas about future online education, to make a quick buck.

But now, inspired by Chen Sheng, Zhou Min also began to feel that this opportunity was not to be missed!

However, this means that many things need to be reconsidered, such as what free, high-quality courses to use and how to promote them.

At this moment, Zhou Min's mind was full of ideas, and because she had too many ideas, she found it difficult to make a decision.

After Zhou Min shared her original thoughts with Chen Sheng and the other person, she continued, "Originally, I didn't plan to spend time and energy on the operation of the website. I just wanted to create a classic educational website and then infinitely replicate it to make money. So I didn't carefully consider many of the previous issues."

"If we are really going to do online education now, then we need to consider these issues ourselves."

"My original plan for the online courses was to communicate with schools and record some lecture videos of the school teachers. But if I'm going to create an educational platform, this approach is not suitable."

As soon as Zhou Min finished speaking, Chen Sheng continued, "The higher education population is still too homogeneous. In terms of sheer volume, the compulsory education stage still has the largest volume."

“That’s true, but how many primary and secondary school students have that much time to learn online? Besides, parents of primary and secondary school students probably prefer offline institutions!” Zhang Kun shook his head with a pessimistic look.

Zhang Kun felt that Zhang Xiaohan's original idea was better, as it saved time and effort.

All you need to do this summer is spend some time building the website, then find some well-funded educational institutions to promote it, and spend a few minutes copying and pasting it for them, and you can directly build an online education website.

This is much better than all the nonsensical ideas Chen Sheng came up with.

Unaware of Zhang Kun's thoughts, Chen Sheng replied earnestly, "So if we want to attract these parents, we need a gimmick. For example, 'The top science student in Jiangsu Province will explain a system of two linear equations in two variables,' or 'An international math Olympiad gold medalist will explain elementary school math Olympiad'..."

What the capital university has in abundance is top scorers from all over the country and winners of academic competitions, which Chen Sheng believes is a great advantage for them.

If they make good use of this advantage, they will definitely be able to attract a huge amount of traffic.

Zhou Min was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. After a two-second pause, she asked incredulously, "You mean we should find students to record our lessons?"

"Yes! Those who can study here are all 'other people's children,' right? More than learning knowledge, these parents and students are probably more interested in learning from others' success stories! Especially the top scorers..."

As Chen Sheng spoke, a sudden inspiration struck him, and he added, "We can also upload scanned copies of the top scorers' subject notes, and we can also regularly publish some of their learning experiences..."

Chen Sheng was getting into the swing of things when Zhang Kun interrupted him, saying, "What learning experience? Isn't that all nonsense?"

Chen Sheng was taken aback, but still said firmly, "As long as the students and parents are willing to accept it, that's fine."

"That might fool people for a couple of days. After a few more days, they'll realize that all your tricks are the same. Besides, all the people in our school are good at pretending all the time, so they'll definitely try to establish their genius persona."

As Zhang Kun spoke, he imitated in a high-pitched voice, "I never study when I get home. After class, I play basketball. I prefer to sleep..."

Seeing Zhang Kun's affected manner, Zhou Min interrupted him with a look of disgust, "Stop, stop, stop! Zhang Kun, can you please stop causing trouble?! Shut your mouth, okay?"

After yelling at Zhang Kun, Zhou Min turned to Chen Sheng and said, "Continue!"

"As far as I know, there are quite a few students at the school who want to make money. We can pay them a certain fee, sign some students, and have them teach online live classes to build our brand IP..."

Chen Sheng talked for almost half an hour. When Li Na left, Chen Sheng just waved his hand and didn't even get up to see her off.

Zhang Kun, who used to always like to interrupt, had long since fallen silent.

Looking at Chen Sheng, who was speaking eloquently, Zhou Min asked in surprise, "How do you suddenly know so much?"
