Chapter 216: Becoming famous overnight
The matter of finding a bodyguard was finally settled, but Xu Youyou had a limited network of contacts. The Lu family had been in business for many years and did not need to rely on Shen Ju'an to find a suitable bodyguard.
In just three days, the Lu family had found several suitable bodyguards and were just waiting to return to Shanghai so that Xu Youyou could personally interview and select the suitable candidates.
What Xu Youyou didn't expect was that her first video as a new blogger received over a million hits in less than a day after it was edited and released.
Qing Yatou became an overnight sensation!
Although she has the support of Lu Jingyao and the exposure of their love affair, Qing Yatou's video content itself is of high quality and can retain the audience.
"The completion rate is over 80 percent. Boss, you really struck gold this time!" Xie Ran said excitedly.
Xie Ran did not leave his post during the Chinese New Year and stayed in Shanghai to work overtime. He had never met Qing Yatou in person, but he believed in Xu Youyou's vision and found a photography team during the Chinese New Year to shoot this video.
Fortunately, after spending so much effort, I have now received sufficient rewards.
This is not the first time that Xie Ran has incubated an internet celebrity. Whether it was the old lady Li who raised stray cats and dogs, or the young lady’s vlog who spent hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, neither of them could compare to the popularity of Qing Yatou this time.
For Chinese people, there has always been a saying that food is the most important thing for people, which shows how much they value the word "eat".
Qing Yatou’s videos show the most simple delicacies, which are almost within reach, but can attract top wealthy people like Lu Jingyao and Xu Youyou.
Apart from food, netizens' minds seem particularly complicated.
"Husband, how come you are already taken?"
"But to be honest, it was hard to imagine Lu Jingyao dating before, but now that I see him dating Xu Youyou, it doesn't seem that surprising?"
"Okay, okay, my husband and my wife are together."
"Congratulations to Boss Xu for finding her ideal husband. This way, no one will spread rumors about her and our brother Zhibai anymore."
"Am I the only one who thinks they're acting?"
"A top rich man and a rich woman act together just to promote this little blogger? What is the origin of this little blogger? If they really want to promote her, why don't they send her into the entertainment industry?"
"I don't care, I don't believe this is true!"
Xu Youyou glanced at the sour comments in the comment section, just smiled and didn't take it to heart. It is better to have some popularity than no popularity. No matter how these people were attracted to this video, they will eventually become Qing Yatou's traffic.
Xie Ran asked the photography team to strike while the iron was hot and continue shooting a few more videos.
"Talent? I don't have any personal talent?" Qing girl said frankly.
"It's a pity that there are no wild fruits or mushrooms on the mountain now. Otherwise, if you go up the mountain and perform a fruit-picking show, it will definitely make the whole Internet jealous." Xu Youyou couldn't help but sigh, thinking that Qing girl was very talented, but it was freezing cold outside.
Xie Ran thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have any intangible cultural heritage in your area?"
Qing Yatou said, "I learned how to make Hui ink from Granny Tan before."
Xie Ran immediately said: "I will ask someone to prepare it right away, you shoot a video of the production process of Hui Mo."
Qing Yatou said: "Although I learned it in the past, I can't remember it clearly now."
Xie Ran didn't care at all, and said: "It doesn't matter whether you remember it or not. Anyway, what we present to the audience is the production process. You just learn from the master as long as you don't make mistakes."
Qing Yatou felt that this slightly boring process might not be very attractive.
But Xu Youyou was very curious: "I want to play with them too."
Xie Ran said, "Boss, if you want to come along, you have to do the whole thing. Don't give up halfway just because you're tired."
Although Xu Youyou was particularly greedy for enjoyment after becoming rich, she knew what was important: "Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who can't endure hardship."
Xie Ran was skeptical about this, but he couldn't really stop his boss, so he said, "Mr. Lu is now the traffic password, you can bring him along and make sure this video goes viral."
Xu Youyou turned around and glanced at Lu Jingyao beside her. Seeing him nod, she couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you have to work all of a sudden?"
Lu Jingyao laughed: "Work is for a better life."
Lu Jingyao stayed with Xu Youyou in Huangshan for more than ten days. Although he received calls every day, he still persisted. No matter how Assistant Liu cried and shouted, he had no intention of going back to work.
Xu Youyou felt embarrassed: "You go back first, I will definitely return to Shanghai before the end of the month."
Lu Jingyao originally wanted to refuse, but Xu Youyou was extremely firm. In the end, he got her promise to give him the Hui ink she made by herself as a gift, and then he returned to Shanghai reluctantly.
Xu Youyou and Lu Jingyao had been together for more than ten days. Suddenly, there was no such a clingy person around her, and she was actually a little uncomfortable with it.
"Never mind, never mind. A wise man does not fall in love. This is true. Falling in love almost ruins my brain."
After Xu Youyou sighed, she immersed herself in the process of making Hui ink.
Speaking of which, Qing Yatou and Xu Youyou were both particularly pleasing to the eye after putting on Hanfu. People with a discerning eye might think they were filming a documentary about the production of Hui Mo, but those who were not in the know might have thought they were filming some ancient idol drama.
As expected, this video became a hit on the Internet again.
Different from other noisy self-media videos, Qing Yatou seems to have some kind of magic. Although she is clearly doing the simplest labor, it is difficult for people to take their eyes off her.
It seemed as if in a moment, I gained peace of mind.
"If the eyes have learned it, it means I have learned it. To put it in a roundabout way, I now know how to make Hui ink."
"I feel so strong now. I can make the best ink as soon as I start working!"
The netizens' comments were obviously meant to be funny, but this video did make them feel that it brought them closer to traditional culture.
Something even more unexpected happened. The video of Qing Yatou making Hui ink was uploaded to the Internet.
Once it was released, it immediately became popular all over the world. This was completely unlike the popularity of ordinary intangible cultural heritage inheritance videos, it was like a cheat.
Many foreigners even learned how to pronounce the word "Hui Mo" because of this video.
Of course, there were also many haters on the Internet who were jumping up and down anxiously: "It must be fake, right? It's just a blog, how can it be so popular? I checked, this blogger named Qingqing is signed to Xu Youyou's company, it must be Xu Youyou who paid for traffic to promote her, Song Zhibai also became popular in this way!"
But he was soon scolded by more people: "It's fine to buy traffic in China, but how to buy traffic abroad? Didn't you see that there are more comments on videos abroad than in China, and each one is different? Can Xu Youyou, who is so powerful, force foreigners to buy Amway?"
Most people have felt the charm of Qing Yatou's videos. People who were originally irritable will calm down when they hear her voice, and countless insomniacs fall asleep by listening to her voice.
But it was someone else who truly ended this vicious online war.
