“Not at all, I think instant noodles are delicious. I used to have the opportunity to eat them only during the New Year.”
“Huh?” Zhou Qingyue doubted her hearing.
An Nuonuo said again, “Zhou, the instant noodles he makes are delicious. You should try it.”
Zhou Qingyue glanced at it, “Isn’t this just pouring boiling water into it, then adding the seasoning packet and a hot dog?”
“Because he made it, it tastes better than others.”
An Nuonuo was a bit shy, but she spoke firmly.
Could she not see that Zhou Qingyue still hadn’t given up on Jiang Xu?
It was just her character.
She wouldn’t quarrel and make a fuss like everyone else.
Instead, she used this unique way to ‘declare war’ on Zhou Qingyue.
Zhou Qingyue was stunned.
At this moment, she finally understood where the gap between her and An Nuonuo lay.
She forced a smile and wisely chose to change the subject.
She took a disc from her bag and handed it to Jiang Xu, “Take a look.”
Jiang Xu took it and simultaneously gave An Nuonuo an affirming look.
The seemingly soft-spoken girl also had a strong side.
The first episode of “Palace Life” played.
The beginning chose to focus on the confrontation between a newly favoured consort and a veteran queen.
An Nuonuo was instantly drawn in, watching without blinking an eye.
Jiang Xu nodded approvingly.
The acting and looks of these actors were all top-notch, and the plot followed his script.
This was a secure bet.
After watching the first two episodes, Jiang Xu had a sense of it.
He said to Zhou Qingyue, “This series is good, the only downside is the average theme song.”
Zhou Qingyue helplessly said, “Top lyric and music composers, hiring them to write a song costs at least 500,000 to start. I’m broke.”
“Just wait a moment.”
After saying this, Jiang Xu got up and returned to his bedroom.
There was a song that matched perfectly with this drama.
It was a song about loving devotion…
Jiang Xu wrote out the lyrics.
He had learned about the melody in class and had done well.
Although he couldn’t guarantee 100% accuracy.
But he felt that 90% accuracy was almost there.
He would let the professionals fine-tune it later.
After finishing, Jiang Xu took a photo of it and kept the original.
He sent the photo to Zhou Qingyue as a multimedia message.
He walked out of the room and said to her, “Get a professional singer to perform the song I sent you.
Ninety percent of the song’s future revenue will be mine.”
Both An Nuonuo and Zhou Qingyue, hearing this, looked at Jiang Xu in shock.
“You can write songs?” Zhou Qingyue asked incredulously.
“No, I just scribbled it.” Jiang Xu waved his hand dismissively.
He had no interest in showing off. He simply looked at it from the point of earning money.
Zhou Qingyue looked down at the lyrics Jiang Xu had sent.
Her eyes reddened quickly.
She put herself into the tangled web of love and hate with Jiang Xu.
An Nuonuo saw the lyrics and her expression was a bit complex.
“Okay, you should go back and deal with it.” Jiang Xu sent her off, “As for the advertising on my side, it won’t be overlooked.”
This drama was very important to Zhou Qingyue, and it was equally important to Jiang Xu.
Because his royalty was not small.
If the show did well, he could quickly accumulate funds.
To provide sufficient financial support to acquire Xiaji Mineral Water Company later.
Although Zhou Qingyue wanted to stay longer.
She knew what was more important.
So she got up and left.
After she left, Jiang Xu walked over to An Nuonuo.
Without saying a word, he reached under her ribs, hoisting her up.
“Ah, what are you doing?” An Nuonuo yelled in surprise.
Jiang Xu carried her to the balcony and sat her on the railing.
Their heights matched.
Then…
An Nuonuo’s eyes widened in surprise.
Jiang Xu knew she had seen the lyrics earlier and thought he still harbored lingering feelings for Zhou Qingyue.
Explaining verbally was useless, actions were what mattered.
An Nuonuo felt Jiang Xu’s intense feelings.
Her previous worries disappeared without a trace.
“I’m going to my room to rest…”
After quite some time, An Nuonuo covered her mouth, lowered her head, and dashed off to the second floor.
Jiang Xu chuckled and returned to his own room.
He was preparing to promote “Palace Life.”
The regular promotion channels, Nuomimi Novel and Weibo, didn’t need much explanation.
As for posting in the forum, Jiang Xu didn’t feel like doing it himself.
The methods used too frequently wouldn’t have much effect anymore.
No need to waste time.
He employed a tactic which would be overused in a few years but was not widely utilized yet.
Scandal.
Deliberately creating some scandalous news.
Such as the lead actress slipping into the director’s room late at night.
The second female lead going to a hotel with the scriptwriter.
Or the leading lady privately dating a popular male celebrity.
The photos are blurred and ambiguous.
Put them on the internet and make a big fuss about them.
After the actors in the play gained popularity, the work itself became popular as well.
When it reached a peak, the rumorers would clarify it.
They’d also provide some evidence, such as dining in a restaurant or singing somewhere, on that particular night.
All those photos were fake.
This trick was very useful, many companies would pull it before every film premiere in a few years.
Just that it became overused later, and netizens stopped buying it.
It then evolved into a shocking stream of promotions.
A certain Director Zhang was most experienced in this regard…
Jiang Xu wrote down the entire operation process and sent it to Liu Yue to arrange it.
After a while, Liu Yue called.
Her first words were, “You’re really impressive, Jiang Xu.”
Jiang Xu laughed heartily, “It’s a secret, don’t tell anyone.
We can use this trick for at least a few years.”
Improving this way was cost-effective and beneficial.
It would probably take other companies a while to catch on.
“Got it, I’ll arrange it right away.”
Jiang Xu took a half-hour rest, then got up and started working.
He wrote 8,000 words for the novel first, then started working on “Super Bumper Car.”
The art and such were still outsourced to the same group of college students from before.
They were cheap, effective, and obedient to the client.
Special effects were handled by his own company.
This way, he could save some money.
The largest expense was Jiang Xu himself.
The progress was almost half complete.
At the moment, nine gameplay modes had been added, and ten more were expected to be added later.
With this plan, a new mode would be added with each monthly update to retain users.
Once the user base of both games was large enough, Jiang Xu planned to organize a linked competition.
A race featuring both games. One side on bumper cars, the other, sword flying…
It should be pretty interesting.
Of course, they might get criticized.
He’d wait until the timing was right and felt out the users’ bottom line before implementing this plan.
Time quickly reached five in the afternoon.
Jiang Xu took a temporary break.
Just as he was about to go out and stretch his legs, his phone rang.
It was an unfamiliar number.
He picked it up.
Immediately, Jiang Xu’s eyes narrowed..
