Chapter 593 - Advertising
After tossing and turning all day, it was soon time to fall asleep again.
Zhang Zi'an couldn't open his eyelids at all, but since he learned the news that the elf's lifespan could be extended, his tiredness was dispelled. However, he didn't tell Lao Cha or the other elves the news, because, as π said, the time had not yet come. Rashly telling everyone the news has made everyone have more expectations in their hearts, and if one day the expectations are disappointed, it is better not to know about it from the beginning.
Even if the elf's lifespan can really be extended to infinity, it must be through an extremely difficult process, judging by the solemn expression on the π when flipping through the nameless book, perhaps the biggest challenge and trial he has faced since downloading the game.
Even though he couldn't read it, he was still very grateful for this nameless book, whether it was the Super Merriam-Webster Dictionary or the Book of Sand, or a utopian book from other civilizations in the universe, without which he would not have known this reassuring good news.
The elves fell asleep one after another, and of course, before going to bed, it was inevitable that there would be another toss. Today, Richard seemed to be extraordinarily active, as if something good had happened, forcing Zhang Zi'an to hang it upside down before going to bed to calm it down......
When everyone went to bed, π was still sitting in front of the computer and typing intently.
"π, did you make any noise?" Zhang Zi'an walked over and asked. He knows how annoying the noisy Richard and the Snow Lion can be.
π shook his head.
"Okay, then let's go to bed first, and you can go to sleep when you're done. Zhang Zi'an brought it a small table lamp, and the light shield of the small table lamp was facing away from the direction of the bedroom, so that the light would not affect everyone's sleep.
He also didn't plan to tell π what he was going to do in a while, because he didn't know if he would succeed or not, and he didn't want π to experience disappointment after giving hope to him.
π grinned and nodded.
Zhang Zi'an glanced at the elves again, confirmed that each elf was in its proper position, and turned off the ceiling lamp.
With the light source of the small table lamp and the night light, he lay down on the bed, stared at the ceiling with his eyes open, listened to π slight typing, thought about the life of the elf for a while, and thought about Uncle Li's snack bar for a while, in short, he didn't let his mind sit idle, and tried his best to prevent himself from falling asleep.
After about an hour, he heard a soft rattle, the room was darker, the laptop fan whined and the fan squeaked—π turned off the small lamp and climbed into the basket to sleep.
Zhang Zi'an waited for a while with his eyes open, during which drowsiness hit, and he almost fell asleep several times, but he woke himself up by pinching his thighs.
He looked up, estimated that π had fallen asleep, took out his phone from under the pillow, and activated the starting point app.
During the day, he was not idle when he was reading π typing, but quietly used his mobile phone to surf the Internet, wanting to see what that magical "book list" was.
After inquiry, he learned that the book list is an important supplement to the official recommendation of the starting point, the difference is that the book list is created by the book friend himself, and he can put his favorite books into the book list, and write some recommendations for other readers to pick up. If readers agree with the taste of a single owner, they will pay attention to the single owner, similar to the UP master of some digital product reviews on video sites, and the digital products recommended by the UP owner will often get more recognition. The single owner of some big book lists even has tens of thousands of followers, which is equivalent to the Internet celebrity in the book list industry.
After careful screening, he found that the booklist is roughly divided into two categories, one is that each book in the book list has a large evaluation and introduction, and the other is only a one-sentence introduction, and the former has received much more attention than the latter, after all, the former can better see the degree of intentions of the single owner.
During the day, he silently memorized the ID of the main of the long review list, and then went to the comment area of their book list to take a look, first of all, to exclude the most popular single masters, because their comment area is full of authors who are recommending themselves, or authors who are pretending to be readers are recommending themselves, and it is estimated that these single masters can't read even if they read books 24 hours a day.
And the book list with too few followers, the comment area is crowded, and the cost performance of advertising is not high.
After some screening, he targeted a single master with the tenth highest number of followers, and the single master ID was the Morning Star Arangutan, which was mentioned by the author of the book "The Diplomat of the Underworld".
This single owner wrote out the requirements - don't copy and paste the advertisement, the city has a single heroine or no heroine.
Zhang Zi'an breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, he had three wives and four concubines, and there were many cute girls crying and shouting to be his girlfriends, but π hid all his wives and concubines in line with the principle of seven points of truth and three points of fiction when he wrote it, so it barely met the requirements...... That's right, that's it, he's going to have to talk to π tomorrow, and it's better not to play tricks on this.
Advertising is roughly the same as sending a resume to HR, and the highlights must be written as concisely as possible. What is the highlight of this book of ......π? Certainly not without a girlfriend!
He typed on his mobile phone: Is it okay to push yourself? The title of the book is "The King of Pets", and the protagonist who runs a pet store downloads a game that can capture elves, and witnesses the growth of the pet store with the elves, without a heroine.
After thinking about it, he added a "current" in front of the words "no heroine", which is considered satisfactory, and then clicked send.
After posting, he refreshed the comment area over and over again, anxiously waiting for the reply of the single owner, just like constantly refreshing the mailbox after sending the resume and waiting for HR's reply. He has read the books recommended by this single owner, and the level is very high, so it is very likely that the other party will not be able to read the π, but he hopes that the single master who has read countless books can at least give the reason for the defeat, so that he can try to help π revise it. At this time, he is like a starving job seeker who desperately needs to get a satisfying job, no matter what.
However, it was late at night, and it was almost 1 o'clock, and the single master was probably asleep, and Zhang Zi'an couldn't help but sigh in frustration as he watched his comments be inundated with other self-recommended comments.
It may have been that the sigh was a little loud, and he heard a creak from the hanging basket rattan chair, as if π had turned over.
He turned off the screen of his phone, and waited for a while, but the direction of the basket and rattan chair did not make any more noise, and then the screen was lit again.
What to do?
He's already very sleepy, will he wait for the single owner to get up tomorrow and post another advertisement?
No, tomorrow π will be on the first small recommendation, if the first recommendation can't be ranked in the top three or four, become a molecule, then I'm afraid you will never get the next recommendation.
Thinking of this, he decided to go to other books to advertise in a single place. Advertising is like begging, as long as you pull down your face for the first time, your face will become thicker in the future.
This time, he decided not to be greedy for more and bigger, and shifted his attention from the large single owners with more than 10,000 attention to the small and medium-sized single owners with thousands of attention, hoping that they had not slept yet.
Looking for it, he noticed that there was a single master whose ID was Yang Chenkong, and there were thousands of words of comments on each book in the book list, many of which were insightful, but the problem was ...... This single owner has only 3,000 followers, will advertising be effective?
He opened the comment area with the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, and was pleasantly surprised to find that this single master was actually online, exchanging views on a certain book with his friends.
Zhang Zi'an hadn't read the book they were talking about, but from their words, it was as if he had seen the book, and he understood the success or failure of the book, giving the onlookers a very professional feeling.
Also, I don't know how, the comment section of this book list is very clean, and there is not a single advertisement. Seeing this, he was overjoyed and took advantage of this rare window period to advertise.
Even if it is an advertisement, it is necessary to talk about the basic law, and it cannot be posted randomly like a small advertisement for dating in the toilet. Each single owner has different requirements for advertising, like the previous single owner clearly required a single female protagonist or no female protagonist, and now the single owner's taste seems to be more miscellaneous, meat and vegetarian are not taboo, and everything is seen except for the supernatural text.
Not having specific requirements is the most difficult, because I don't know what to cater to the taste of the single owner. Zhang Zi'an pondered for a while, and still wrote it in the previous format, but deleted the final "There is no heroine at present" and changed it to "Welcome to test the poison, poison to death", I hope that such a self-deprecating tone can attract the attention of the single owner.
After clicking send, he didn't refresh the comment area repeatedly like before, because he couldn't hold it anymore, he was too sleepy, and it was almost half past 1 in the middle of the night, and he still had to get up early tomorrow.
Putting down the phone, he lay flat on the bed, and after a while, he was too empty, and entered a hazy half-dreaming state, which could completely fall asleep at any time.
In the darkness, π kept watching him, and he didn't move at all except for a slight movement from the numbness of his legs.
It knew, it always knew, it could see the tiredness in Zhang Zi'an's expression.
Since you're so tired, it's okay to do this a day later, right?
It opened its mouth and silently made a "thank you" gesture.
Well?
Zhang Zi'an seemed to hear something, as if someone was talking to him, he barely opened his eyes from the haze, and the heavy sleepiness pressed on his eyelids like a mountain.
He looked around, didn't find anything unusual, and lit up the phone screen again to look, the time was already past 2 o'clock in the middle of the night.
Before the starting point app could exit, he clicked into the comment area of the second single owner's book list, trying to find the single owner's comment on the π, but he couldn't find it, and even the advertisement he just posted was gone.
No wonder the comment area is so clean, it turns out that this single owner deleted the advertisement...... It's been in vain again.
He couldn't hold it anymore, so he casually stuffed his phone under his pillow and sank into sleep.
