Chapter 191 The wish of the otaku has really come true
Lin Fan’s phone was not turned off, he just took out the old SIM card and replaced it with a new one. Otherwise, there would be so many people calling every day, and if Lin Fan turned off his phone, he would probably miss important calls. If he didn’t turn it off, it would be annoying. Changing the SIM card would make things much better.
With the popularity of Xiangwang Yard and the peak tourist season of Huahai Island gradually approaching, the number of tourists on the entire Huahai Island has increased dramatically. The most notable feature is that not only are reservations for Xiangwang Yard scheduled for several months into the future, but reservations for other hotels and B&Bs are also scheduled until the end of October, and the schedule is still being pushed back.
Business suddenly became booming and the peak season was approaching, which made local hotels and B&Bs eager to make some moves. When room reservations officially broke through October and moved towards November, hotels and B&Bs adjusted room rates almost at the same time.
Price increase!
Price increases during the peak season are inevitable. Seeing that this year's peak season comes much earlier than in previous years, it is normal to increase prices in advance. Many hotel and B&B owners comforted themselves in this way, and then raised the room prices by one level with a smile on their faces.
Lin Fan was preparing gifts for the winning fans at this time. The first Super Blog lucky draw event was very successful. Lin Fan's lucky draw event dynamic was just released and received tens of thousands of reposts within a minute. By the end of the event, the total number of reposts reached more than 10 million, close to 20 million.
Except for Lin Fan's 4.15 million active fans, the rest are just passers-by joining in the fun, but even so, it is still an amazing number. And Lin Fan's super blog account has officially become a big V with tens of millions of fans, which is purely a pleasant surprise.
Unfortunately, among these 10 million fans, only 4.15 million can provide popularity for Lin Fan, and the rest are passers-by, not active fans. Even if such passers-by follow Lin Fan, they cannot provide popularity for Lin Fan. Unless they change from passers-by to active fans, but this change process is more difficult.
If these passers-by fans can be converted into active fans, then the more than one million popularity points that he owes to the system can be repaid instantly, not to mention that he can also spare several million popularity points for the lottery! Lin Fan guessed that if he released a few more songs of similar quality to "Shame", he would be able to achieve the achievement of tens of millions of popularity points.
Lin Fan prepared three bottles of scented tea and two small wooden sculptures as gifts for the five winning fans. The main reason was that he had a lot of these two items, especially the scented tea. The inventory was really increasing, and if he didn't get rid of them, Lin Fan was worried that he would have no place to put them.
Although sketching is much faster than making a small wood sculpture, Lin Fan has been sketching this week. He also drew a detailed painting for Yu Mengmeng that is comparable to the texture of a high-definition photo. He was a little tired and decided to take a break for a while.
As for the autographed postcard, Lin Fan wasn't thick-skinned enough to do so, so he felt it was a bit perfunctory, so he decided to put it aside for now and take it out later when he was too busy.
After finishing the gifts, Lin Fan began to calculate the income and expenditure of Xiangwang Yard since its opening.
Calculate income first.
In addition to the room where Lin Fan lives and the exclusive room for Xia Yan, Xiangwang Yard has a total of 20 guest rooms for receiving guests. Each room is priced at 1,688 yuan. Since it opened for more than a month, it only received one group of customers in the first three weeks, who stayed for three days and had a total income of 1,688×1×3=5,064 yuan.
In the next two weeks, as of today, the 20 guest rooms have been fully occupied, with a total income of 1,688 × 20 rooms × 15 days = 506,400 yuan.
The total of the two is 511,464 yuan.
Then there are the expenses.
The five-week rent of Xiangwang Courtyard is 55,000 yuan: Labor costs: 2 cleaners, each with a monthly salary of 4,000 yuan. 6 security personnel, 2 of whom are newly hired, each with a monthly salary of 5,000 yuan, and a total of 35,000 yuan for the five-week labor costs.
Linen cleaning cost: 50,000.
Lin Fan changes the linens every day, unlike some so-called five-star hotels that change their linens every few days. How unscrupulous!
Guest room consumables cost: 50,000.
Breakfast: 9,000 yuan.
Plus the swimming pool maintenance fee, water and electricity bills, etc., which amount to 30,000.
Roughly speaking, he could earn more than 200,000 yuan, but if we take into account the depreciation of the decoration, it would be 910,000 yuan for 35 days in a year. In general, although the Xiangwang Courtyard is full every day, Lin Fan is still losing money and has not made a penny. If Lin Fan wants to make a profit and make a profit, it will take at least one year to see the return of money if the courtyard is full every day.
It turns out that dreams are a money-sucking thing, a money-losing thing!
Lin Fan was really glad that he didn't rely on the B&B for his living, otherwise he would have starved to death long ago.
Thinking of this, Lin Fan logged into the Tianlai backend to check his song data.
The new downloads of the first released songs "I Caught a Cold in That Corner" and "Keep Walking in the Rain" are not very obvious. "Running" and "Glory" have also entered a weak period. The song "Strong Wind Blows" is in an upward period, but the upward trend is relatively slow.
The song that truly supports Lin Fan's income now is "Shame". The data of this song is still rising steadily and rapidly, but it also somewhat suppresses the momentum of "Big Wind Blows".
This is what Yang Hongxia said to Lin Fan. She was fighting with herself. If the release time of these two songs were staggered a little bit, or if they were simply linked together, Lin Fan's income could increase by a few more points.
However, the popularity of "Shame" also boosted the downloads of several other songs. So when you think about it this way, I still made a profit.
After adding up all the above, I will soon have another 4 million song share income next month. Well, if I work harder, I will be able to pay off the money I owe Xia Yan soon! Good things have been happening one after another recently.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Not only was the popularity gap almost filled, but even the money owed to Xia Yan was almost repaid.
No wonder so many people like to be celebrities, it’s so easy to make money! It’s much faster than running your own B&B! This is Versailles!
How many celebrities are as high-quality and productive as Lin Fan? Which of the seven songs, "I Caught a Cold in That Corner", "Walking in the Rain", "Glory", "Running", "The Wind Blows", "Shame", and "Bubble", is not a classic? Which one is not popular on the Internet? Not to mention that Xia Yan has put a lot of effort into promoting the three songs "I Caught a Cold in That Corner", "Bubble", and "The Wind Blows", and Zhang Xinlan has put a lot of effort into promoting "Walking in the Rain".
All in all, Lin Fan's money-making speed is considered slow. If Lin Fan were to work seriously, do more commercial performances, and appear on more variety shows, let alone 10 million, even 30 million would be like a piece of cake.
This is in no way inferior to the first-tier singers!
After all, Lin Fan now has 4.15 million active fans, plus passers-by fans, if someone falsely said that Lin Fan was a second-tier star, probably no one would dare to object.
No matter what, Lin Fan is in a happy mood at this moment! A bright future is waiting for him!
My life as a otaku has really come true!
