Chapter 39
Recently, Shen Wei's livestreams have been extremely popular.
Kindergarten livestreaming has seemingly become a new trend in the livestreaming world.
No one had ever imagined that a kindergarten could become such a hit.
Each of her livestreams attracts over 100,000 viewers online.
Those businesses are drooling over this.
For a livestreaming fan base, having 1,000 loyal fans is enough to sell products worth over 100,000 yuan.
But 100,000 fans, what a concept! Tsk tsk...
Those businesses are practically disdainful of Shen Wei sitting on a goldmine without realizing it.
Even if she's simply livestreaming without explaining products, just driving a toy car around, she could easily earn a seven-figure sum per livestream.
So the businesses eyeing her viewership are frantically messaging Shen Wei in private.
They just hope she'll start selling products soon.
Those watching the kindergarten livestreams are mostly mothers and highly educated women.
These are the main forces of internet consumption!
How could the businesses not make money off them? They can't sleep at night.
While others seek collaboration online, Shen Wei mostly politely replies with a simple "Thank you, no need."
But some are crazy about this.
A clothing brand called "Little Eggs" sent people from their business department to fly to Shen Wei's city and besiege Starry Sky Kindergarten.
Claiming it was for business collaboration, they simply told the gatekeeper Li Yi and tried to barge right in.
Li Yi wouldn't let them in, and they almost got into a physical altercation outside.
The commotion was so loud that Shen Wei had to come out and see what was happening.
She saw a young man with dyed yellow hair pointing his finger right at Li Yi's nose and arrogantly saying, "Do you know who I am?"
"You're just a barking dog guarding the gate here!"
Shen Wei's expression immediately soured. No matter which business it was, with zero respect shown, there was absolutely no chance of collaboration.
"Who are you, and what are you doing causing a ruckus here?" Shen Wei's face darkened.
When the yellow-haired salesman saw Shen Wei approaching, he immediately put on a fawning smile, "Oh, I'm the person in charge of 'Little Eggs' clothing."
"We've sent you so many private messages online, but you never replied, so I came in person, sincerely hoping to collaborate with you on a livestream."
He looked at Shen Wei with a calculating glint in his eyes.
Without a team, Shen Wei had somehow managed to make her livestreams this wildly popular.
He thought that besides collaborating, it would be best to also sign an exclusive contract.
That way, Starry Sky Kindergarten's entire viewership would be directed to their products - just thinking about it felt great.
As soon as the yellow-haired salesman mentioned "Little Eggs clothing," Shen Wei's system started searching and relayed all the information it found within seconds.
Little Eggs clothing is particularly generous with advertising and has bribed many internet celebrities to leave positive reviews - 99% of online searches yield praise for the brand.
But the system found that many of their products are mislabeled - products marked as Class A for infants and children are actually Class C and B.
The clothes won't fall apart easily, but they overcharge by 10 times or more compared to similar products in the same class.
There's an inexplicable herd mentality where the more expensive a product is, the more people assume it's high-quality, so the brand has become a "affordable luxury" among pregnant mothers this year.
It has become the leading brand in the children's clothing and toy sector.
Now they've set their sights on livestreaming and have already collaborated with many top livestreamers.
They've become so big that they usually ignore small internet celebrities.
Originally, Shen Wei's few hundred thousand fans wouldn't have even registered for them since the livestreamers they work with have at least 2 million fans.
But Shen Wei's viewership is so good, and her fans are so niche.
Their research showed that although Shen Wei's fan base doesn't compare to those top livestreamers in number, she might actually outperform them in product sales.
Plus, since Starry Sky Kindergarten hasn't done any product livestreaming before, the premiere would generate buzz worth tens of millions - a win-win for their marketing-savvy company.
Shen Wei said, "I said we're not collaborating. Moreover, you just insulted our gatekeeper, so you need to apologize immediately."
The yellow-haired salesman felt a little displeased - he was used to being fawned over by internet celebrities seeking collaboration. Now, this person was showing her true colors: "We're a top brand. That we even considered you is an honor. Don't be rude."
Other mother-and-baby livestreamers would grovel just to collaborate with them.
Now she was putting on airs too.
Shen Wei said flatly, "Get lost."
This completely enraged the yellow-haired salesman.
The yellow-haired salesman said, "You'll regret this. I'm telling you, if you make an enemy of us, you won't have a good outcome. I advise you to know your place - this is just a kindergarten after all. You can't defeat capital, can you?"
Shen Wei snorted coldly, "What about capital? We're running this kindergarten legitimately. Why would we be afraid of rats like you lurking in the gutters?"
The yellow-haired salesman was furious. "Hmph, you underestimate the internet. Online, I can make you live or die!"
Shen Wei didn't want to engage with him any further. She gave Li Yi a signal with her eyes.
Li Yi said, "I told you to leave earlier but you didn't. Now you can't leave even if you want to! Apologize, or try me?"
The yellow-haired salesman stubbornly stuck out his neck, "Heh. I'm right here, do your worst?"
Li Yi was a former soldier - if he didn't want the salesman to leave, he couldn't leave.
With just a bamboo rod, he knocked the salesman down several times to eat dirt.
The yellow-haired salesman was angry at first, then became enraged.
But he had to lower his head while on someone else's turf.
Finally, he resentfully apologized before leaving immediately.
Having never experienced such humiliation before, as soon as he reached the airport, he messaged the marketing manager: "Destroy this kindergarten, damn it, how dare they insult me!"
The marketing manager was his sworn brother.
He immediately asked, "What happened?"
The yellow-haired salesman said, "Hmph, a bunch of ungrateful fools. We gave them a chance to get rich and they not only rejected it, they arrogantly made me apologize!"
He had grown accustomed to arrogance within his project team.
He had heard that internet marketing departments have some vicious, underhanded tactics.
This kindergarten looked down on him, didn't they? Fine, he'd teach them a lesson.
If the kindergarten came begging for a truce next time, it wouldn't be the previous collaboration terms.
By then, even Shen Wei would have to apologize obediently to him.
Shen Wei didn't dwell on this incident.
She just thought the forest had grown large enough for all kinds of birds to nest.
With the rapid development of the internet, even those of low quality could ride the trend to dizzying heights.
Having grown used to being flattered, they truly believed in their own abilities!
Shen Wei felt satisfied seeing Li Yi giving that yellow-haired salesman a hard time.
But just two days later, Doctor Lu found Shen Wei saying, "You should go take a look! Little Eggs clothing's livestream is publicly dissing us."
Doctor Lu mostly just did odd jobs now.
Since there were rarely any injuries at the kindergarten that required his medical attention.
Besides studying to be a nutritionist, Doctor Lu spent his time surfing the internet at 8G speeds.
He would inform Shen Wei of any issues right away.
Shen Wei immediately opened that livestream and heard the host saying, "We previously wanted to collaborate with Starry Sky Kindergarten, but they not only refused, they also said some unpleasant things. Yes, you're internet celebrities, but we in the real business world are no worse than you internet celebrities."
There were many fans of the brand in her livestream chat.
Seeing their beloved host claiming the brand was bullied, coupled with their love for the brand, they immediately rushed to attack.
"What kind of thing are they? Just a small internet celebrity, isn't it? How dare they talk about us?"
There were also anti-fans stirring up trouble in the comments.
"To be honest, I don't know what confidence Starry Sky Kindergarten has? As a kindergarten, their focus shouldn't be on turning the kids into idols, yet they're making it like a drama series, and some people are even shipping the characters."
"Exactly, they say they're making all sorts of delicious food for the kids, but in reality, it's all just for publicity."
"You said it, that's the real truth. I've been disgusted by them for a long time, heh."
"Oh, you dare say that? Aren't you afraid of their kindergarten's crazy fans?"
