Chapter 4: Selling the Rest of Your Life

In 2009, Weibo and WeChat had not yet appeared. In addition to the news, the main discussion platforms for the first batch of netizens are major forums. Moreover, there are no particularly popular posts in major forums, especially in the world after Hu Yiming's rebirth.

Hu Yiming just posted his post "I give the rest of my life to the Internet" on the most famous forum, God.

Post Body:

I used to think that I could do anything, and I could do it if I wanted to. But now I find out that in fact, I am nothing, I can't do anything, I'm tired, I'm tired, I'm tired... Sometimes I suddenly want to give up my life, it's really boring to live!

(With picture 1, Xiaoxiao walks on the road with sunglasses, slightly decadent.) οΌ‰

I want to die, but I can't die yet, I want to be in the network, I can have the value of living, and I can do something for one of you. Is there anything you want to do? Tell me and I'll do it for you.

(With picture 2, Xiaoxiao's frontal photo is very beautiful, with a hint of melancholy in her eyes.) οΌ‰

I'll take a picture of the process and post it here to let you know: I've done it for you. I want to live differently, I want to live a more meaningful life. Or: I hope you will control my future life so that I don't have to think.

As soon as the post was posted, it received a lot of comments in 2 days.

A type of comment, the evaluation title: Beauty, you have to hand over the lower half of your body to the Internet? Or leave it to me.

The second type of comment, concerned: Beauty, what setbacks have you encountered in your life? Don't give up.

There are three types of comments that really ask for it:

Beauty, I haven't eaten a spider yet, so why don't you eat one for me?

Beauty, I'm still single, your last days come to be my girlfriend, I want to control your life.

The popularity of the post is small, which is not what Hu Yiming expected. The content of the post does not seem to have many words, but it has a lot of foreshadowing.

First, the title "I give the rest of my life to the Internet". The second half of life is homophonic with the lower body, plus the beautiful photos inside and some comment guidance, it is very easy for otaku to have YY psychology.

Second, the first paragraph of decadence, with photos of beautiful women, some otaku will definitely have a heart of pity and pity.

Third, the real theme, saying to help others do something, many people will not believe this. But the last sentence, I hope you will control my future life, is reminiscent.

Hu Yiming went to the cloud sea sauna, showed the post to Xiaoxiao on his laptop, and said lightly: "You are now famous, how do you feel?"

Xiaoxiao was very happy at first, so many people read the post and commented on it. But I took a closer look at the comments that followed

He was depressed and said, "Brother Hu, these are all boring people commenting, what's the use." I can't be considered famous, can I? Even if I am famous, what is the use of this kind of fame? ”

Hu Yiming smiled and said, "You can't expect a 200-word post with a few photos to make you popular all over the world." Ignore the boring comments, you see, some people actually ask for help. ”

Xiaoxiao said sullenly: "What are you helping to be someone's girlfriend." ”

Hu Yiming sneered and said, "What kind of girlfriend, I mean those serious requirements." The front of this post is deliberately appealing to people. But if you want to be famous, you need to really do something later. ”

Xiaoxiao was a little moved, Hu Yiming took the opportunity to guide and said: "Just play, if it doesn't work, I'll give you a subsidy for the car and food, and then come here to get a 5000 card." ”

Xiaoxiao herself is actually curious, and more importantly, so many people have replied to this post, Xiaoxiao really wants to see how it develops later.

So, in the following days, when Xiaoxiao was not on duty, she picked up some normal requirements in the post and started to do it, including: helping netizens hold up signs to confess, going to the Great Wall for netizens, and going to a rice noodle shop to eat rice noodles。。。。。。 Of course, those who are not serious, the requirements of the lower body, are ignored.

Hu Yiming followed the whole process to take pictures, and after doing one thing, he immediately uploaded the photo to the post. In five days, the post actually became the first hot post in the section, and it was recommended to the homepage.

Xiao Xiaole smiled and said, "Brother Hu, I really didn't expect that it would be so funny to do such an ordinary thing and have so many people watching it." ”

frowned again and said, "Brother Hu, you are really a bad person, and you deliberately made some hints of rubbing the edges in the post at the beginning. In fact, in the back, it is all positive. ”

Hu Yiming laughed and said: "This is called packaging hype, otherwise how can you become famous? And it has to be a good reputation." ”

The comments of netizens, with the progress of the content of the post, have also begun to change quietly, and everyone knows that the girl in the post is really completing the task of netizens.

A netizen: I didn't expect that there are real things on the Internet, there are really people who don't do anything every day, and they go to help netizens fulfill their wishes.

A netizen: This is a heart-warming thing, and at first I was worried that Xiaoxiao would really commit suicide. However, now that she is working hard to help others realize their wishes every day, I believe that her heart will become sunny.

At this time, Hu Yiming felt that the time had come, and he could finally add the fire.

In the name of Xiaoxiao, Hu Yiming said in the post: The last few days have been very fulfilling, and I feel that my life has meaning. I'm no longer confused, I'm no longer hesitant. I wish I could do something more meaningful.

On the eighth day of the event, a netizen left a message saying that he wanted to do something to commemorate the Nanjing Massacre. After a brief discussion, Xiaoxiao decided to go to the street in thin clothes at -3Β°C outdoors to hold up a sign: "12.13 Nanjing will never forget".

After taking the photo, Xiaoxiao said to Hu Yiming: "At first, I just thought it was fun. Now, I suddenly realize that although you are hype, what you are doing is quite meaningful. ”

Soon, the picture of the sign was uploaded to the forum. Xiaoxiao in the cold wind is so beautiful.

The forum exploded, netizens began to post non-stop, and the hype finally reached a climax. At this time, several media began to ask for an interview with Xiaoxiao through their forum accounts.

Hu Yiming carefully selected a few media outlets and let Xiaoxiao be interviewed, but he still told Xiaoxiao not to reveal that he was a sauna foreman.

After the interview, the relevant news came out quickly.

"North Drifter Girl: I Give the Second Half of My Life to the Internet"

"Give the second half of your life to the Internet, the positive energy in life"

Major media rushed to reprint it, and Xiaoxiao became famous!

The day after the interview, Hu Yiming found Xiaoxiao and said with a smile: "Xiaoxiao, remember what you promised me? ”

Xiaoxiao's face was as red as an apple again, and she said, "What do you want to do?"

Hu Yiming gently put his face close to Xiaoxiao's little face, Xiaoxiao lowered her head, feeling very nervous, but she didn't dodge.

Hu Yiming was almost amused, took a step back, and said, "Xiaoxiao, resign, come to work in my company first." I will give you the same basic salary as the sauna, and according to the previous agreement, if you have business income, I will only take 30%. ”

Xiaoxiao saw that Hu Yiming didn't kiss her, and breathed a sigh of relief, as if she was a little disappointed.

Xiaoxiao neatly completed the resignation procedures for the sauna and followed Hu Yiming back to the company.

Jin Ge saw Xiaoxiao and joked: "Xiaoxiao beauty, you are as popular as a little star now." He asked again: "Brother Hu, can Xiaoxiao make money from advertisements in the future?"

Hu Yiming gathered his thoughts at this time, and found one thing: in 2009, the reason why this simple hype could become popular was mainly because of the street reality show, which is not very common. However, the problem at the same time is that the Internet celebrities who became popular on the Internet had a hard time making money in 2009, and advertisers generally rarely found Internet celebrities to endorse.

Hu Yiming waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, if you are famous, you are afraid that there will be no money to come in later?" You can first take Xiaoxiao to familiarize yourself with her and settle down for her. Call first, Hu Yiming said casually, call her the director of the office first. ”

A few days have passed, and the residual heat of the post is still there, and Xiaoxiao still chooses a netizen's request to implement it step by step every day. At this time, a well-known businessman, a manager of Dibao.com, came to the door. Hu Yiming and Xiaoxiao received him together.

Dibao manager: "Hello, we hope to talk about a business cooperation with Xiaoxiao. ”

Xiaoxiao glanced at Hu Yiming and said, "I am fully responsible for everything." ”

Manager Dibao: "Okay, now the situation is like this, we should know that we are an e-commerce company, and we sell things online." But now, most people only know that we sell physical goods, and only a few people know that it is now possible to trade virtual goods. ”

Hu Yiming's heart flashed, and he said, "Do you want everyone to develop the habit of buying virtual items online?"

The Taobao manager smiled and said, "Mr. Hu is really a smart person, that's right, we have actually been focusing on promoting this, but the effect is not great." So, we hope to have a practical case of a person with some fame who sells something virtual. ”

Hu Yiming also smiled: "Sell the second half of Xiaoxiao's life?"

Xiaoxiao listened on the sidelines, and smiled coquettishly: "Brother Hu, are you going to sell me?"

Digging treasure manager: "It's not so scary, Xiaoxiao only needs to open a store in our digging treasure." Then, in your post, I said that because there are too many people who have given the task requirements, it can't be done anymore. Therefore, I opened a store in Dibao, and if you have any needs, please go to the Dibao store for consultation. ”

Hu Yiming said lightly: "I have this hype idea, you should know it, it was originally to help netizens for free." Now, you suddenly want to collect money, isn't this ruining Xiaoxiao's reputation? We, Xiaoxiao, are going to enter the showbiz after becoming famous. ”

After speaking, Hu Yiming thought to himself: Made, this is the first hype after I was reborn, and I don't have 30,000 yuan to talk about.

The manager smiled awkwardly and said, "This is indeed true, we can give some financial compensation." Fifty thousand, do you think it's okay?"
