Chapter 194 Working Overtime, I Really Voluntarily!



Xu An had already left, and it was already 9 p.m., but Tang Wen was still sitting in front of the computer wearing blue light blocking glasses, typing away, and then sent the draft of the tweet to Xu An.

After receiving Xu An's "ok" reply, Tang Wen further polished the tweet and posted it on her Dayan account and WeChat account. Only then did she yawn, press the shutdown button on her computer, and pack her things to go home.

Although I worked crazy overtime during my time at Xu's Fast Food Restaurant, it was truly voluntary, not something I was forced to do, whether openly or secretly. Most importantly, the overtime was worthwhile and gave me a sense of accomplishment.

In just a few days, Xu's Catering's account has accumulated a considerable number of active followers on both Dayan and WeChat. This was supposed to be the most difficult first step, but it was overcome so easily. The feeling of such a rapid increase in followers and constant interaction is simply fantastic!

The event plans I proposed at Xu's Fast Food Restaurant would never have been discussed in a meeting, let alone passed the department head's approval, if they were at Qiansheng Group. Leaving that position was definitely the right decision.

In a mid-range residential community in Shanghai.

Yu Liang's account went viral by chance at the end of last year. He then used the traffic from his account's followers to advertise and sell goods, earning more money than he did working a 9-to-5 job. As his number of followers and income continued to increase, Yu Liang gradually became dissatisfied with his regular job and finally quit his job in April of this year to devote himself to the emerging self-media industry.

He was invited by Xu's Catering to attend the opening ceremony of Xu's Braised Food Shop yesterday. He had assumed that a shop that could invest so much money in its opening event must be a large establishment or a unique braised food shop with a distinctive aesthetic.

Upon arriving at the scene, Yu Liang discovered that Xu's Braised Food Shop, which had been making quite a splash, was actually just an ordinary braised food shop, even smaller than the average shop! But considering the highly gimmicky opening activities and rewards offered by Xu's Braised Food Shop, Yu Liang hesitated for a moment but still chose to stay, unlike those big internet celebrities who would leave with a black face on the spot.

Everyone else is a big influencer with hundreds of thousands of followers, while he, a nobody with just over ten thousand followers, should be down-to-earth and take it one step at a time. Xu's Braised Food Shop did not disappoint him. The Hellish Braised Food attracted a lot of interest, and Mr. Sun winning the first prize of ten thousand yuan also created a small sensation.

Instead of going back to edit and promote the tweet, Yu Liang would take nine pictures and add about a hundred words of description for almost every event that might become a hot topic and post it directly.

His approach proved to be extremely correct. By the time he posted about Mr. Sun winning the first prize, his previous four posts had already garnered over 300 reposts, over 100 comments, and over 1,000 likes. These were the fastest four posts he made to achieve this level of popularity after his initial viral post; previously, it would have taken him 24 hours to reach such a level.

I thought this was the peak, but little did I know it was just the beginning. Starting at 4 PM, the data for Yu Liang's six posts skyrocketed, along with the number of followers. By 10 PM, the number of followers had increased to a staggering 21,372! He'd gained over 7,000 followers since the afternoon!

Almost every time he refreshed the page, he saw his follower count increase by several! This excited him greatly, and he kept refreshing the page while holding his phone, his silly grin becoming more and more pronounced.

After refreshing the screen again, a new notification popped up at the top of the screen. It was a new post from an account he particularly followed—Xu's Catering. Before Yu Liang's brain could even process it, his finger had already tapped on the post.

"Ding ding ding! Xu's Braised Food Shop's opening event was a huge success! The 500 jin of braised food we prepared today sold out in just six hours! Everyone was so amazing! To thank everyone for their enthusiasm, I spent the whole day pestering the boss and finally managed to secure some new benefits for everyone!"

If Xu's Braised Food Shop sells 1,000 jin (500 kg) of braised food tomorrow, an additional first-prize winner will be added on Wednesday! The prize remains the same: one jin of free braised food per day for September and a cash prize of 10,000 yuan! (Just between you and me, if sales are strong on Wednesday, there might be even more perks!)

Holy crap! They've pulled out another first prize as a reward. Xu's Catering is really too extravagant!

Without hesitation, Yu Liang forwarded the post to his own account and added a comment: "Whether there will be a first prize spot on Wednesday depends on everyone. If there is, everyone should participate, no matter how low the score is. Without further ado, I will buy fifty catties of braised food tomorrow to give away to my followers. Spots are limited, first come, first served! I'm contributing to the chances of winning the first prize at Xu's Braised Food Shop!"

Almost instantly after being shared to my account, the post received twelve likes, followed by three fresh and enthusiastic comments.

'What time are you going tomorrow, blogger? (chuckles)'

'I just followed this blogger and I can already receive a perk! I love it!'

"Another first prize winner! Although I can't handle spicy food very well, I'm choosing to help those who can. I'll go buy five pounds after get off work tomorrow! Provided they're still on sale by the time I get off work."

Looking at the rapidly increasing interaction data, Yu Liang wished he could fly to Xu's braised food shop and hug Xu An and give him a couple of kisses. With all the data increasing so much, he could raise his asking price even further during future business collaborations. He was glad he hadn't chosen to leave today; he wondered if those who had left were regretting it terribly.
