Chapter Eighty-Four: The Kick-off Ceremony
Chen Qingwu chatted with his sister-in-law for a long time, and his grandfather Chen Changsheng did not come back, it seems that he is determined to avoid her.
She had no choice but to say goodbye in disappointment.
This old man is really stubborn and ruthless.
Chen Qingwu was a little sad when she left, Duan Jincheng left, her grandfather ignored her, and the two most important men in her life were lost to her inadvertently.
But what did she do wrong?
Back then, she just did what she was supposed to do, and she went around and around in exchange for such a result!
When the car was halfway through, Chen Qingwu pulled over, leaned on the steering wheel, and cried.
At this moment, she really realized the taste of her sister-in-law hiding in the car and crying.
The collapse of adults is all silent, and they quietly leave themselves with dignity.
After crying once, Chen Qingwu's emotions were relieved.
Over the years, in addition to the nuclear eagle, her other ability to grow is to quickly eliminate negative energy when it is surging, if it weren't for this, she is afraid that she would have drowned in the abyss of depression.
After returning home, Chen Qingwu continued to work.
Fortunately, she still has a career she loves, and in life, even if everything is lost, as long as she can still do what she likes, life is still promising.
Jia Jia also came to work in the afternoon.
Looking at the empty studio, Jiajia sighed deeply.
"On the first day of Mr. Duan's absence, I missed him!"
"Don't think about it, work hard, you're about to start live streaming, are you familiar with your work process?" Chen Qingwu said.
"Familiar, familiar, familiar."
Chen Qingwu's first live broadcast was scheduled at seven o'clock on Saturday night, considering that she was bringing goods for the first time, Wu Minya, who has been deeply involved in self-media, also specially arranged for an assistant Co to help in case of an emergency.
In addition to Co, the Nuclear Sculpture School also came to a lot of newcomers to help, and everyone shared more than ten behind-the-scenes jobs such as operation, shooting, customer service, warehouse, etc., and learned while exploring, and everyone hoped to win this battle and fight beautifully.
At seven o'clock on Saturday night, Chen Qingwu started broadcasting on time.
Her account has accumulated nearly one million followers in just over a year, and these fans are very active and have a certain understanding of nuclear carving.
Chen Qingwu notified as early as last week that she would start live streaming this Saturday, and the response from fans was quite positive, at least she didn't hear a sour word like "the end of Internet celebrities is to bring goods", because the old fans who followed her all knew that Chen Qingwu was sincerely creating, and he was also sincerely promoting and developing the nuclear carving business.
She has never done anything grandstanding, and this time she was forced to bring the goods.
For intangible cultural heritage handicrafts, the best protection is to buy and sell.
Only by allowing these craftsmen to support themselves with their skills and have a decent life can the old craftsmen have more energy and confidence to improve, and also attract more newcomers to join the team of nuclear carving creation.
What Chen Qingwu wants to do is to let this new way of consumption drive the old craftsmanship.
"Now we are going to put on this nuclear carving, the name is 'Under the Bodhi Tree, it is from the hands of Lu Yili, the master of the Qinghe Nuclear Sculpture Association, and is inspired by the Buddhist Bodhi. The size of a single nuclear carving is about 22.5 centimeters wide and about 29 centimeters long, and this nuclear carving is characterized by extremely smooth lines, strong three-dimensional sense, and easy slurry when producing oil......
In addition to recommending her own works in the live broadcast room, Chen Qingwu also added more than a dozen works by other nuclear carving craftsmen.
However, it was all worth it.
The sales volume of Chen Qingwu's live broadcast room for the first time soared to 200,000.
The moment the broadcast was broadcast, there was a cheer in the studio.
Everyone happily high-fived and hugged, feeling like people walking in the fog, suddenly saw a light, this light told everyone that there is a road ahead
After all, no one wants to change careers one day because of the compulsion of life, and everyone wants to firmly hold the job they love.
Zheng Sizhe also came with good news, although the sales volume of his live broadcast room was not as good as Chen Qingwu, it also reached 100,000.
"Celebrate after work! I'm in for a treat!" Chen Qingwu said happily.
"Yay!"
After everyone sorted out the work at hand, they went to dinner together.
At the dinner table, Jiajia hadn't eased her excitement, everyone else was eating, and she quietly held her mobile phone and looked down to review the order.
"Sister Qingwu, today Brother Ren alone contributed sixty orders, and one-third of the sales were supported by him." Jiajia leaned into Chen Qingwu's ear and said.
"Brother Ren? Who's the man?"
"The 'big brother who guards one person' in the live broadcast room, I call him 'Brother Ren' for short."
"He buys so much alone?" Chen Qingwu immediately leaned over to look at the transaction data on Jiajia's mobile phone screen, and sure enough, he was ranked first on the list again.
"Brother Ren is really rich, too powerful!" Jiajia is full of praise.
Chen Qingwu muttered a little.
What is this person buying so many nuclear carving bracelets for? It's not something to eat, it's not a necessity of life, if he doesn't really like nuclear carving, it's just to cheer her up, it's actually not necessary.
Chen Qingwu logged on to his account and sent a private message to the fan whose ID was "Shou Yiren".
"Hello, thank you very much for your support."
The other party probably thought that this was set up by her, and every fan who placed an order could receive this private message, so when the dinner was over, he didn't reply.
After returning home, Chen Qingwu thought about it and sent another private message to the other party.
"Hello, thank you very much for placing an order in the live broadcast room today, but I want to ask, is it the use of you buying so many nuclear carving bracelets?"
"Give it away." This time, the other party replied quickly.
It turned out to be a giveaway.
Knowing that the other party did buy it because it was useful, Chen Qingwu felt a little more at ease.
"Thank you, thank you for your support and trust!"
The other party did not reply.
In the next half month, every time Chen Qingwu brought goods in a live broadcast, this brother also appeared, and placed orders one after another.
Jiajia calculated for him, and in half a month, he probably bought nearly two hundred strings of nuclear carving bracelets.
Chen Qingwu's heart began to be unsteady again.
More than 200 strings, where do ordinary people need so many nuclear carving bracelets to give away? Does he have so many friends?
As the saying goes, when things go wrong, there must be demons.
So one day, Chen Qingwu couldn't help but contact him.
"Hello, thank you for your support every time, but I would like to ask, how many people are you going to send?"
"Are you overdoing it?" The other party replied.
Chen Qingwu was speechless by his words.
Although but ...... She just wanted to ask.
"I'm just asking, and it's okay if you don't want to answer." As for being so fierce?
"You sell yours, I buy mine, do you need to ask so clearly?" The other party said again.
「……」
Well, too.
Just when Chen Qingwu thought that he would not answer her question, the other party sent another one, and replied honestly, "Two or three hundred people."
"Okay, thank you." If you say this earlier, it's over, you have to scare her.
After Chen Qingwu politely expressed her gratitude, she sent another rose expression, the rose's expression was her usual expression to express her gratitude to every fan in the live broadcast room, but she casually sent it and seemed to have stepped on the other party's thunder point again.
"Don't send me such memes!"
An exclamation point, which fully expresses this brother's dislike for this emoji.
Through the screen, Chen Qingwu can imagine it
What kind of angry fingering did he use to type this string of words.
But what happened to the roses?
Among the ambiguous emojis on the Internet, the roses that middle-aged and elderly people love to use are the purest!
"Don't contact me at every turn!" Brother Ren added again.
Chen Qingwu: "......"
What a weirdo who is unpredictable.
Forget it, if only she could make money, it doesn't matter how much he buys!
---
After the initial results of live broadcast sales of nuclear carving, Chen Qingwu and Zheng Sizhe discussed, nuclear carving practitioners like them eventually have to return to the work, can not keep doing live broadcast, delaying their main job, so they decided to integrate resources on the existing basis, recruit professional e-commerce anchors, customer service, after-sales, etc., carry out nuclear carving knowledge training, create a standardized e-commerce team and platform, we work together to broaden the sales channels of nuclear carving, increase output value, improve influence, so as to promote the development of Qinghe nuclear carving.
Wu Minya helped a lot in this matter, and the young anchors she introduced to Chen Qingwu were not only professional, but also serious and responsible.
Among them, in order to better introduce nuclear carving in the live broadcast room, there was a little girl who even went to Chen Qingwu's studio to study for a week.
In order to thank Wu Minya, Chen Qingwu repeatedly asked her to invite her to dinner, but Wu Minya, the "superwoman in the sky", was very busy, and she was either on the plane or on the way to the airport all day, and she couldn't make an appointment at all.
On the last weekend of the month, Wu Minya finally took the initiative to call Chen Qingwu and said that she was free today and could make an appointment for dinner together at noon.
Chen Qingwu immediately booked a place in Wu Minya's favorite western restaurant.
After the two met in a hurry at Mr. Hou's funeral, they never met again.
"Oh my god, I've been really busy lately, and now I reflexively want to vomit when I see the plane." Wu Minya began to complain when they met.
"Now, are you busy?"
"These two days have come to an end for the time being."
"Then we can take a break."
"Well, I'll meet you today, and tomorrow I'm going to go back to Qinghe to see my parents."
"Uncle, how are you doing?"
Wu Minya's father had a tumor removal operation at the beginning of the year, and Chen Qingwu went to the hospital to accompany Wu Minya for a day on the day of the operation.
"Fortunately, it's basically recovered."
"That's good."
The two chatted and ate, and Wu Minya picked up her mobile phone from time to time to reply to a message, and the distraction was obvious.
"Are you secretly in love without me?" Chen Qingwu asked.
"I'm so busy that I don't have time to sleep, where can I have time to fall in love?"
"And who are you talking to so energetically?"
Wu Minya generously lit up the WeChat interface to Chen Qingwu: "You can see it yourself."
Chen Qingwu glanced at it, and the note of the person who was chatting with Wu Minya was "a licking dog", and this "licking dog" was frantically asking Wu Minya on WeChat when she would be free to go out to meet.
"Who?" Chen Qingwu looked at the avatar unfamiliar, it should not be their mutual WeChat friend.
"Mu Yiyang."
"You two ......" Chen Qingwu pondered his words, "There are signs again?"
"No, he's chasing me."
"Wu Minya, you'd better be sober, don't be deceived by the scumbag's sweet words, domestic violence and cheating, there are only zero and countless times, a person like him who has a history of cheating, don't expect his prodigal son to turn around and reform himself, when the time comes, if the two of you really get married, if he engages in extramarital affairs, do you have to drag me to catch a girl every day!"
At the beginning, Wu Minya didn't know how many tears she shed because of Mu Yiyang's splitting of her legs, so Chen Qingwu has always had a deep prejudice against Mu Yiyang.
"Baby, don't get excited, in fact, what happened back then was really a misunderstanding." Wu Minya said.
"Have you been brainwashed by him, and he says you will believe it?"
"Him
Of course I don't believe it, it's not what he said. When I was on a business trip to London some time ago, I met the girl who was close to Mu Yiyang back then, she is now based in London, not only works there, but also found a boyfriend there, and is about to get engaged."
Wu Minya and the girl met again because of work, probably because they hated her to the core, so Wu Minya recognized her as soon as they met, but I didn't expect that the girl to remember her.
After the meeting, the girl asked Wu Minya to have an afternoon tea and explained the misunderstanding of the year, she said that she was in unrequited love with Mu Yiyang back then, and she took advantage of the good atmosphere of Valentine's Day to pluck up the courage to confess to Mu Yiyang, in fact, a few seconds before Wu Minya appeared, Mu Yiyang had already rejected her on the grounds that she had a girlfriend, because she didn't want to leave regrets for herself, so she forcibly kissed Mu Yiyang.
She didn't expect that this scene would happen to be seen by Mu Yiyang's genuine girlfriend. Afterwards, she heard that Mu Yiyang was named a "scumbag" because of this, and was dumped by his girlfriend, she was very upset, and kept thinking about when she would have the opportunity to explain to Wu Minya, but she didn't have Wu Minya's contact information, Mu Yiyang avoided her in order to avoid suspicion, and didn't give her a chance to speak at all, so this misunderstanding has lasted for so many years and has not been resolved.
"Huh? So, over the years, have we really misunderstood Mu Yiyang?"
"Yes, no wonder he has been entangled for so many years, and from time to time he jumps out to cry out for himself, it turns out that he was really wronged."
Chen Qingwu thought that he had scolded Mu Yiyang behind his back with Wu Minya, and he was a little upset.
"Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, are you planning to be with him again?"
"Let's talk about it." Wu Minya smiled and said, "Let him chase for a while longer, after all, so many tears were shed for him back then, and they can't be shed in vain."
"Besides, look at you, when you talk about WeChat, your mouth is almost grinning behind your ears, and this is Mu Yiyang's palm sooner or later."
"I hate it."
Chen Qingwu looked at Wu Minya and couldn't help laughing: "It's good, Mu Yiyang has been thinking about you for so many years, and he hasn't given up your relationship, which shows that he is also a reliable and long-term person."
Wu Minya nodded, in fact, the moment the misunderstanding was solved, her heart had already softened.
"By the way, how are you and Duan Jincheng?"
Chen Qingwu was drinking soup with his head down, and when he suddenly heard the name, he almost choked.
Really, why does anyone who sees her have to ask how she and Duan Jincheng are doing?
"What can I do with him? He's gone, and there's no contact." The situation between her and Duan Jin Cheng is not like Wu Minya and Mu Yiyang, after all, the latter two have really fallen in love, and they don't let go of each other after they separate because they have real and sweet memories, and she and Duan Jin are separated when they separate.
"Didn't you say before that you were invited to be a technical director for his new film? I watched the news the other day, and it seemed like the movie was already on the air."
"Yes, I also saw the news picture of the opening ceremony." Duan Jin Cheng at the boot-up ceremony was dressed in armor costumes, looking majestic and domineering.
"Then why don't you have to go to the crew?"
"It shouldn't have been the nuclear carving scene yet."
"Oh, that's right."
Chen Qingwu was talking to Wu Minya about the crew, and her mobile phone suddenly shook.
A WeChat message came in.
"Hello Mr. Chen, are you busy? Is it convenient to answer the phone?"
