Starting from a Bar to Sign Internet Celebrities

Chapter 351 - 212: This Woman Can Get Famous? You Must Be Joking

Chen Jincheng saw what Little Maru was thinking and asked teasingly, "What’s with that look on your face?"

"Boss, were you just joking with me?" Little Maru blinked, waiting for his answer.

Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "Little Maru, don’t be so skeptical. Everyone has their own strengths and shining qualities. At the end of the day, we influencers are here to entertain the public. Sometimes, being a little tacky, or even a little ugly, can get a laugh and might be even more effective."

Little Maru felt there was some truth to his words, but she still couldn’t believe such a thing was possible.

’How could a beauty like me be surpassed by someone like that?’

Only after entering this industry did she realize how difficult it was to gain followers and get noticed.

But since these words came from her boss, she subconsciously felt it might be possible. After all, everyone knew just how terrifyingly effective his planning abilities were.

Take Wang Qiqi. She considered herself just as good, but they had both covered the same song. Looking at the other girl’s numbers, then at the plan CYH had made for her, she had been utterly crushed.

And then there was Zhu Ling, who had gained 21 million followers in a single week, directly breaking Tiao Yin’s record for follower growth.

Before this, who would have dared to imagine gaining over 20 million followers in a week?

Chen Jincheng, however, was looking at the "Here We Go, Bro" Heat Card in his mind.

[This is a special Heat Card, originating from the legendary source of a famous meme. As long as this card is used on a suitable target, you will obtain the heat from the 700 million total network views of the event from your previous life, as well as its effects!]

He experimentally glanced at the large, heavyset woman and received a system prompt:

[This target meets the criteria for using this Heat Card. Use Heat Card?]

Chen Jincheng smiled. ’It works, just as I thought.’

This meant Sister Yaosi could make her debut in this world ahead of schedule.

In the other world, that Sister Yaosi had become a viral sensation across the entire internet with the single phrase, "Here we go, bro!" She even tried to borrow money from Boss Ma.

It was safe to say that many people had scrolled past the image of Sister Yaosi holding two kidney skewers and shouting, "Here we go, bro!" For a time, she was a household name, and the phrase even topped Tiao Yin’s list of popular slang for the year.

Crucially, her rise to fame had a similar effect to Little Sweet’s: it boosted the local economy.

After she went viral, countless fans flocked to H* River, lining up for hours in front of her barbecue stall just to eat the kidneys grilled by Sister Yaosi herself.

While it wasn’t as explosive as Little Sweet’s impact, she still single-handedly revitalized an entire local food street.

The kind of success that had the local leaders grinning from ear to ear.

But she also achieved something Little Sweet never did: she grilled kidneys live on Y* TV’s "People’s Spring Festival Gala." Although most people were just watching for the novelty, simply being able to stand on that stage was a mark of success.

She even appeared on shows like *Ace vs. Ace* and, at one of Boss Ma’s summits, asked him for a loan. It was, you could say, the highlight of her life.

Of course, the fact that she later lost her way, ran into some trouble, and faced widespread criticism and exposés doesn’t change the fact that she was, for a time, massively famous.

Radiant Square had already blown up completely thanks to the Little Sweet Heat Card. If another Sister Yaosi appeared here... the result would be unimaginable.

Of course, this was all on the condition that the Heat Card could be used for Radiant Square, and that they were willing to pay for it.

With a plan like this, if he turned around and offered it to other plazas, there would definitely be plenty of people willing to cough up the money.

Just as he was thinking this, a very pleasant female voice sounded out: "Mr. Chen, what a coincidence."

Chen Jincheng turned to see Wei Weiwei. Behind her were several other people, likely from the Publicity Association.

’I can’t believe she recognized me even with a mask on.’

He smiled in response. "Miss Wei, you brought people over today as well!"

Wei Weiwei said with a smile, "Actually, we’ve been coming every day for the past few days, but the crowds were so terrifyingly large that we couldn’t even get into the stall area. The flow of people is more normal today, so we can finally go in and film some detailed shots to combine with our previous footage for an episode."

"We really have you to thank for this, Mr. Chen. The Coastal City Publicity Association is really in the spotlight now. Our president has been holding meetings almost constantly, focused entirely on this matter."

Hearing this, the few people from the Publicity Association also subconsciously glanced at Chen Jincheng.

Everyone at the Publicity Association knew that the online phenomenon was orchestrated by this very influencer.

The sensational scene before them still felt somewhat unbelievable.

Who could have imagined a single influencer possessed this much power?

Just then, Chen Jincheng’s phone rang. It was Lin Hao’s number.

After he answered, Lin Hao’s voice came through. "Lao Cheng, where are you? I’m at the square."

"I’m here too, just left the parking garage," Chen Jincheng replied.

Before long, Lin Hao arrived with Qianqian by his side.

Like Yinyin, she was one of Tiao Yin’s Three Big Pendulums, and she was the first female influencer Lin Hao had ever made famous.

However, the gap between her and Yinyin had widened; she only had a little over two million followers now.

"Lao Cheng, besides Zhu Ling, have you chosen the other three influencers from your side? We’ll be shooting the videos here at the square in the next couple of days," Lin Hao asked as soon as he saw him.

Chen Jincheng nodded. "Yes, they’re chosen. I’ll bring them over to sign the contracts tomorrow."

"Alright, let’s go check out the stall area first," Lin Hao said with a smile. The crowds had been too massive the past few days, making it impossible to get into the stall area during peak hours. But seeing this viral hotspot that he helped create gave him a great sense of accomplishment.
