Xia Ke was forcibly bound to an entrepreneurial system filled with countless hyper-dimensional high-tech products. With this system, Xia Ke returned to his hometown village to establish a technolog...
Chapter 6
Xia Ke started her live stream at 5 p.m. sharp. The content was still about moving. The live stream data was still not good, but because she sold a lot of goods, she was not as confused and anxious as she had been in the first two days after resigning.
In just two days, she earned nearly 60,000 yuan.
Money gives people courage. With this money, even though the number of viewers in the live stream was still sparse, Xia Ke remained calm.
Like ants carrying food, moving a little bit each day, after seven days, Xia Ke finally finished moving all her things, and the number of viewers in the live stream stabilized at three digits.
However, the audience still didn't believe that she could cross space. No matter how she proved it, the audience insisted that there was some unsolved special effects trick behind it and were keen to play the spot-the-difference game.
In contrast to the sparse audience in the live stream, the sales of the space ring continued to increase. Judging from the comments, most of these later buyers were family and friends who had developed from dormitory 601. Only two buyers watched the live stream and made purchases out of curiosity with the intention of exposing a fake.
That day, the intermediary called Xia Ke to inform her that the company's establishment procedures had been completed.
Xia's mother had been feeling unwell for the past few days, so Xia Ke decided to take her to the hospital and pick up the licenses and certificates she had just obtained from the agency on the way.
While Xia Ke was busy, a video went viral online.
Since buying the Space Ring, Zhao Yan has become a die-hard fan of this magical product. She couldn't stand the doubts and slanders from netizens in the live stream. After verifying the real effectiveness of the Space Ring, she has been trying to prove its worth. To this end, she collected videos of her relatives and friends using the Space Ring.
This video is the culmination of everyone's hard work in room 601. Zhao Yan appears in the video, and the filming was done by roommate number one, who had studied photography for a few days. Roommate number two, who is addicted to watching jokes online, was responsible for selecting the best clips from a bunch of materials. The editing was done by the dorm leader, who is a fan of celebrities.
Not to brag, Zhao Yan genuinely thinks the video she made in her dorm is pretty good.
Unfortunately, all of their accounts were newbies with no followers. The videos didn't get much traffic initially; there were countless great videos online, but no one seemed interested in watching them.
The girls initially made the videos with the intention of promoting and sharing the Space Ring app, but when they saw how dismal the video data was, all they felt was pity for the fruits of their labor.
Zhao Yan didn't want her own and her roommate's hard work to go to waste.
'Purchase recommendation tickets?'
"yes!"
'You've purchased 300 yuan worth of recommendation votes; your work will be promoted to more people!'
Zhao Yan can now go home every day through her spatial ring. She goes home once at noon and once in the evening, mainly to eat and sleep. Eating at home doesn't cost her any money.
I used all the money I saved from meals these past few days to buy recommendation tickets.
Perhaps it's because of the recommendation votes, or perhaps it's because the video quality is excellent and the content is too novel.
The videos of dormitory 601 are gradually gaining popularity.
Xia Ke saw the video on her way home after finishing her business. By then, the video had been circulating for two days and was at the bottom of the recommendation list.
The video is titled, "Is it possible for humans to travel through space?"
This video has now garnered over 100,000 views.
While both videos were about spatial rings, her livestream had a dismal viewership, while other people's videos were featured on the recommendation list.
This is the difference between people!
However, Xia Ke was not annoyed. On the contrary, she was very happy that her fans had spontaneously helped to post videos and promote the Space Ring.
Click to watch the video.
At the beginning of the video, a misty blue color mixed with wisps of white forms a huge vortex around the center point, with the color getting darker the closer to the center, as if it wants to devour everything.
Against this tranquil backdrop, background music begins.
"Since ancient times, humanity's dream of traversing space has never ceased. From the mythical tale of shrinking the earth to an inch, to the camel bells on the ancient Silk Road and the roar of modern highways and railways, humanity has always strived to shorten the distance between each other. In modern society, there are various ways for humans to traverse space, with increased speed and shorter travel times. But is there a better way to surpass existing transportation, to overturn traditional travel methods, and to make our travel faster and more convenient?"
The video's opening was already packed with comments.
[Is this video about transportation?]
[A distance of 1,000 kilometers as the crow flies would have taken a month to reach in ancient times, even with the best horses, and would have taken much longer by walking. In modern society, however, it can be reached in two and a half hours by plane and eight hours by high-speed rail. While modern transportation still has room for improvement, it is already much better than in ancient times.]
[I was drawn in by the video's title.]
[I've already watched the video once, it's so amazing, I'm watching it again.]
[Upstairs +1]

The video is still playing.
"Hello everyone, I'm blogger Haitang, welcome to my video."
Zhao Yan sat gracefully in front of the screen. Under her roommate's strong opposition, she reluctantly gave up her online name, which featured a stunning female cockroach in black stockings, and temporarily changed it to a more respectable one. At this moment, she smiled slightly in the video.
"As the video title suggests, the theme of today's video is to discuss whether humans have the possibility of achieving space travel?"
[Traveling through space? That's a beautiful wish, but with current technology, it might only be possible a hundred years from now?]
[The recommendation list recommends videos like this. This question is so idiotic that even my five-year-old son, who watches Ultraman vs. Monsters, knows it's impossible.]
[Has the blogger been reading too many science fiction novels?]
[***]
[I was ignorant; I apologize to the blogger for my previous insults!]
I also apologize.
[The comments in today's chat are weird; why are there so many apologies?]
"I believe that when viewers hear the words 'space travel,' they will refrain from criticizing the blogger for talking nonsense. The blogger thought the same thing three days ago: how could humans possibly travel between spaces? The world's technology has not yet reached that point. Space travel only exists in science fiction novels."
"But it wasn't until I saw this that I realized how narrow-minded I had been."
In the video, Zhao Yan raises her hand, revealing a spatial ring in her palm.
Zhao Yan pointed out the core of the video, the spatial ring, but she didn't rush to introduce it. The viewers in front of the screen only saw her holding the small thing called the spatial ring in her hand. They didn't know how she operated it, but suddenly a blue vortex appeared in front of her. The vortex was exactly the same as the one at the beginning of the video.
The camera pulls back until it reveals the entire environment in which Zhao Yan is located.
This is an empty indoor basketball court. At this moment, the basketball court is empty except for the blogger and two blue vortexes.
Yes, there were two. Only when the camera zoomed out did the audience realize that, in addition to the vortex in front of the blogger, there was another vortex three or four meters away from her.
The camera is now fixed on the vortex in the distance, and the blogger's face is completely obscured at a distance of three or four meters.
[What is this vortex?]
[It's special effects, right? Special effects!]
[Mom, I have goosebumps!]
[This filming is so amateurish; shooting from such a distance, you can't see anything at all.]
Just as the viewer who said they couldn't see clearly finished typing, they saw the blogger walk into the blue vortex in front of her.
Isn't that vortex a special effect? How can a person get inside it?
The number of comments on the screen exploded instantly.
When Zhao Yan disappeared into thin air and then emerged from the vortex in the distance, the comments section erupted in screams.
[Aaaaaah!]
[How...how did she get here! I saw it clearly; there was no trace of the blogger walking between the two whirlpools.]
[The video was edited, wasn't it? Otherwise, it couldn't have really been from another dimension, could it?]
[Are you sure this isn't special effects?]
[Such a grown woman, and she just suddenly appears so beautiful and fresh?]
Clearly, compared to Xia Ke's long-distance spatial leaps during her live streams, these short-distance spatial leaps are more eye-catching and convincing.
The video is still playing.
Zhao Yan, stepping out of the vortex, leaned in front of the camera and said, "It's amazing, isn't it? This is the effect of the space ring. The one in my hand can traverse a straight-line distance of 150 kilometers, which is already unbelievable. But the owner who sells this space ring has a space ring that can traverse 1,500 kilometers. Shrinking the earth to an inch is no longer just a mythical illusion. The existence of the space ring makes everything possible."
As soon as she finished speaking, she stepped into the vortex again, disappeared, and reappeared in the distance.
"I know that even though I have personally demonstrated the effects of the space ring, there will still be people who don't believe me. So let's look at more evidence together."
"Below are real test videos from my relatives and friends who have purchased the Space Ring. These videos are sufficient to prove the authenticity of the Space Ring."
"The purchase method for the Space Ring will be indicated at the end of the video. The original intention of making this video was to prevent such a good product from being questioned, and also to recommend good products to those who need them. Okay, that's the end of this video~ Thank you for watching my video~"
As soon as the words were spoken, the video began playing a scene of dormitory 601 and their relatives and friends trying out the space ring for the first time.
In the city, Zhao Yan's parents used a spatial loop to travel from their 18th-floor apartment directly to a park to dance in the square; her roommate in apartment 601 used a spatial loop to go home to visit her long-distance boyfriend. In the countryside, an elderly person, hunched over, entered a spatial loop and instantly arrived at their child's or grandchild's home in the city.
These videos don't employ particularly sophisticated filming techniques, but they appear exceptionally realistic. Just as the blogger stated, the spatial loops in each video allow viewers to traverse space and easily reach their destination.
[Go for it! I want a spatial ring that can traverse space too! Even if I'm scammed, I'll accept it.]
[I've finished watching the video. I'm so proud; our country's science and technology have reached such a level.]
[I was so shocked, I was speechless for a long time.]
[At this point, the clever ones have already gone to the streamer's shared bike to buy a space ring.]
[I bought it! I bought it! Everyone wait for me to receive it and give a review~]
[Out of stock!]
[@Xia Ke, boss, please restock!]
The comments following were all tagging Xia Ke and urging her to restock.
Xia Ke felt a surge of emotion after watching the video. She was deeply moved by the three girls' dedication in making the video to promote the Space Ring.
Opening the comments section, Xia Ke solemnly typed a line.
[Thank you very much for your promotion and support. As a token of our gratitude, all four of you in your dormitory will enjoy a 20% discount on all products purchased from Hongqipiao.]
Xia Ke's comment quickly rose to the top, and the comments that followed, apart from a few dissenting voices, were all urging her to restock.
Xia Ke naturally wouldn't let such a good promotional opportunity pass by, so she added twenty more space rings to her shop through the system.
The space ring wasn't cheap, and she initially thought that the netizens urging her to restock were just joking and wouldn't actually buy it. However, to her surprise, it sold out within minutes of being listed.
"It seems there are still more rich people in this world."
While sighing, she withdrew her cash and then put another 1,000 space rings on the market. Of course, she didn't have that much liquid capital to buy 1,000 space rings, but she could wait until she sold her goods before buying more space rings and shipping them out.
It's a bit of a hassle, but there's no risk of overstocking.
