Without much hesitation, Li Xiao rejected the fat boss's request. Although the other party was very polite, Li Xiao could not abandon his principles just because the other party was polite.
"Sorry, I don't accept commercial promotion here. I'm really sorry."
The fat boss thought it was a matter of price, so he quickly said,
"The price is negotiable. I know that the two-hour live broadcast for your friend today is 80,000 yuan. Let's do it this way, 80,000 yuan an hour. No, I'll give you 100,000 yuan an hour."
"It's very easy for us here. You can just live broadcast it casually. You don't need to do any preparation work. It mainly helps us to promote our crayfish. I also know the other things. We generally don't need to do it in our store."
Promoted."
Li Xiao quickly stood up from his seat and explained
"It's really not about the price. I really don't plan to accept commercial promotion. Today's promotion is for a friend. I didn't confiscate the 80,000 yuan. I made the 80,000 yuan into prizes and gave them benefits to the audience.
"
"So strictly speaking I didn't take any money today. I was just doing a favor for a friend, so it's really not about money. Don't get me wrong. It really doesn't mean anything else."
The fat boss frowned inadvertently when he heard Li Xiao's explanation. He felt that the other party was a little shady. 100,000 yuan an hour was quite a lot.
The small internet celebrities he found before only charged a few thousand yuan.
And those thousands of dollars are not just for the live broadcast, they are also responsible for helping to promote it on small fans' books or Moments, and the set is only a few thousand dollars.
Now he offers Li Xiao 100,000 yuan as long as he performs a live broadcast, which is really a lot.
But seeing that Li Xiao's expression was not fake, he sighed.
He also knows that forceful melons are not sweet. Since he gave money to the other party and the other party didn't want it, there was nothing he could do. If he hadn't seen that the other party's live broadcast was very effective today, he would really be reluctant to part with the money.
A smile came back to his face
"If it doesn't work, forget it. Just sit down and wait. The food will be ready soon."
Li Xiao was a little helpless and took out her mobile phone to continue scanning the QR code to pay.
It seems that in future live broadcasts, I will make it clear that I will not accept any commercial advertisements or promotions.
Otherwise, if I go out for a late-night snack and have a meal in the future, if I am recognized by someone, and they warmly entertain me and want me to help promote it, it would be really not good for me to ruthlessly refuse.
After thinking about it, Li Xiao took out his mobile phone and posted a message in the background of his kitty live broadcast.
[I will not accept any commercial promotion or publicity for the time being, please inform each other from major food merchants]
As soon as the post was posted, there were more than a dozen replies immediately appearing under the post.
[Hey guys, this is the first time I’ve seen an anchor who said he doesn’t accept promotion and publicity.]
[Many anchors say the same thing, but in fact they still pick it up secretly]
[Why did the anchor suddenly send a message quietly? What happened? 】
[I guess it’s because after I finished promoting my friend today, the private messages in the background exploded! 】
[It’s very possible, after all, it has directly shot to the top of the popularity list!]
[I'm from Dongguan, and the anchor helped promote this new store, which directly exploded in the circle of friends with good reputation. I'm also planning to try it in two days]
Looking at everyone's comments, Li Xiao felt a little helpless and didn't know whether to be happy or helpless.
However, it seems that today's publicity effect is quite good, and this is enough. As for other influences on myself, as long as we do not accept these commercial promotions later, everyone will gradually understand that they are not talking nonsense.
After all, even if I don’t have promotion fees from merchants, I still have income from tips from the live broadcast room. That income alone is enough to spend lavishly.
Moreover, when I meet a good store like this, I can trigger the check-in system, and the money rewarded by the system is no less than the promotion fee given by the merchant.
On the other side, someone in the food anchor group who had been worried all day also saw this update from Li Xiao.
"Do you think this is true or not?"
"It looks like it's true. After all, no big anchor dares to say in public that he doesn't accept commercial promotions."
"Indeed, there are only some small anchors who say they don't accept promotions for the sake of gimmicks, and many times it's not that they don't accept promotions but that they can't. Once they receive promotions, they immediately delete the things they send out."
"Anyway, no matter whether he is true or not, if he dares to say that, we will have a handle. If he dares to pick him up in the future, we will have a way to kill him."
"I think he is too arrogant. This is like breaking his own arm. Merchants and anchors are inherently mutually beneficial and win-win."
"I don't think it's that simple. Just watch and see what he will do next. After all, he is the guy who single-handedly reached the top of the popularity list. Don't treat him like a fool."
.......
People have no idea how much discussion this post of his caused after it was posted in the food live area of Mao Mao Live. A group of anchors were anxiously waiting for the next offensive of this dark horse.
However, when everyone thought that Li Xiao was busy preparing for the next wave of hot spots.
Li Xiao chatted with Jiang Yingxue who was far away in Nanjing, but the chat did not last long. The first crayfish arrived. Li Xiao was afraid that Jiang Yingxue would wait, so he quickly told him to go to bed. After all, it was almost one o'clock in the morning.
Already.
"Hello, customer, this is our store's [Iced Crayfish], please use it slowly."
At the same time, Li Xiao also received a check-in reminder from the system.
[Ding dong, check-in is successful, the food store you checked in is: [Shiyue Siege]]
[Fresh crayfish, paired with high-quality seasonings]
[Multiple star chefs are in charge, strictly controlling quality]
[Forcibly adding too many dishes makes the quality of the dishes seriously unbalanced]
[Chef: 2-star senior chef: Le Yilong]

[Sous chef: 1-star senior chef: Huang Lifeng]

[Sous chef: 1-star senior chef: Mok Wenwei]
[Sous Chef: 1 Star Senior Chef: Lu Huaiyuan]
"Ding dong, the system rating, [Hengxiang Garden]'s star rating is 3 stars."
"Ding dong, you have won a 3-star food store check-in reward"
[Attribute: Strength 1]

[Ability introduction: You have learned 72 ways to prepare crayfish]
[Money: 1,000 yuan]
【Famous: 30】
[Introduction to fame: 1 point of fame will allow 10 strangers to recognize you through different channels]
After seeing the long list of chefs that appeared in the system, Li Xiao couldn't help but take a breath, this was too damn outrageous.
In a newly opened lobster restaurant, there are actually 6 star-rated chefs hidden inside. Although these star-rated chefs are not high-level, only one is a two-star, and the others are all one-star.
However, this number is really a bit scary.
Did he understand at that time why the price of crayfish here was so much higher than outside?
After all, the wages of star chefs are not cheap. Hiring six star chefs at once is a huge expense.
It seems that the fat boss who looked so naive just now is also a very capable guy. Otherwise, if there are so many star chefs in a kitchen, it will be a problem whether they can cooperate well with each other.
After all, the level of these six chefs is too similar, and it is easy for no one to be convinced by the other.
Li Xiao turned his attention away from the system and returned his gaze to the crayfish.
Then he was stunned. The number of crayfish was obviously wrong.
It's not that the other party cut corners, but that the crayfish was obviously given too much.
Judging from the size of the crayfish, it should be around eighty or ninety years old.
Ordinary lobsters have four sizes, namely four to five six, six to seventy, eighty to ninety, and ten and above.
Taking the size of 80 or 90 as an example, translated into words that ordinary people can understand, the size of this batch of crayfish is between 0.6 taels and 1 tael.
Since he had just acquired the relevant skills, Li Xiao could tell at a glance that the size of the crayfish on the plate in front of him was more than the standard one or two.
That is to say, each crayfish is more than one pound in size. When he ordered the food just now, he made it very clear that each flavor only costs one pound.
But there are a total of 16 crayfish in front of me, which means that the smallest one weighs 1 catty and 6 taels, and the weight is only a lot more.
Li Xiao was a little helpless. The honest guy just now was indeed what he thought. He was not simple at all, even though he directly rejected the other party's promotion.
But not only did the other party not have any dissatisfaction, but he also asked the chef to give him special care and gave him the largest lobster, and the portion was deliberately larger.
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly. Is this good guy trying to impress himself with actions and make himself soft-hearted to live broadcast for him?
How can this be?
You don’t need one hundred thousand yuan an hour, but because of the help of a few lobsters?
Only a crazy person would do this.
Li Xiao looked at the red and chilled crayfish in front of him and hesitated for 20 seconds.
When the phone screen lit up, it was already one o'clock in the morning.
Li Xiao thought to himself that it was already 1 o'clock in the evening. Even a night owl should go to bed, right?
My lovely viewers have been watching it all day, and they are probably tired. They will definitely not watch the live broadcast again.
And at this time, there shouldn’t be many passers-by watching the live broadcast, right?
After 10 seconds, he shook his head helplessly, unlocked the screen of his phone, and clicked on the interface of Mao Mao's live broadcast.
Then the message he uploaded was sent immediately.
Jiang Yingxue, who was far away in Nanjing, had just put down her mobile phone and was going to wash her face and go to bed.
But when she heard a familiar notification sound coming from her cell phone, she was stunned for a moment and thought she heard it wrong.
However, looking at the prompts on the phone screen that lit up, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. Why did this guy start live broadcasting again? He has been live broadcasting for more than ten hours today. Is he really not tired?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yingxue stopped blushing, lay back on the bed, and started her administrator work.
Noticing Jiang Yingxue's online presence, Li Xiao quickly sent a message urging her to go to sleep.
[You'd better live broadcast seriously. Anyway, I don't have to go to class tomorrow, so I just want to sleep in. ]
After a heated exchange of words, Li Xiao was quickly defeated, even though they were born from the same mother and are single to this day.
However, when it comes to verbal disputes, boys are inherently at a huge disadvantage. Unless they no longer want a girlfriend, it is basically impossible to gain any advantage in these aspects.
There was no other way, Li Xiao could only return to the live broadcast room obediently.
He actually regretted that he really shouldn't have been soft-hearted and started this live broadcast, otherwise it would not have delayed Jiang Yingxue's rest time.
However, he quickly adjusted his mood and greeted the audience in the live broadcast room.
"I'm glad to meet you all. I didn't expect that so many of my friends are still awake at this late hour."
Speaking of this, Li Xiao couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. This was completely different from what he expected.
I went online at one o'clock in the morning, and there were more than 90,000 people online?? And the number is still increasing by dozens and dozens.
He twitched the corner of his mouth. When did he have so many fans?
I originally thought that at most 10,000 to 20,000 people would watch it, I would broadcast it as I pleased, chat with everyone casually, and have a midnight snack by the way.
However, it’s hard to justify fooling around with the number of people online now. After all, it seems that the momentum will soon exceed 100,000.
In fact, Li Xiao has forgotten a very important thing, that is, he is still ranked No. 1 on the popularity list in the food area.
Once he went online, almost everyone who clicked on the food area would notice his live broadcast room, so nearly 100,000 people came in in an instant.
Those food anchors who were originally going to take a break almost wanted to curse when they saw Li Xiao's actions.
Brother, you live broadcast from 8:00 in the morning to 12:00 in the evening, with almost no rest in between, and now you start broadcasting again less than an hour after the broadcast???
These anchors don’t know whether Li Xiao is crazy or the world is crazy. Anyway, they are all going crazy now.
If Li Xiao's long live broadcast continues, I'm afraid the time they need to live broadcast every day will also be extended crazily.
Otherwise, their fans will probably slowly come to Li Xiao's side.
This is like two factories A and B recruiting workers. The salary level and work content of the two factories are the same. But suddenly one day, factory A not only increased the salary, but also greatly reduced the workload.
It will definitely be very difficult for Factory B to recruit workers, and even if it recruits workers, they will definitely not be as good as the quality of workers recruited by Factory A.
If things go on like this, Factory B will even fall into a situation where it is completely unable to recruit people, so factories in the same area actually have a price alliance.
Everyone will recruit people within the agreed-upon salary limit. For example, if everyone is between 3,500 and 3,800, then in the same industrial park, a factory of the same size and the same work intensity will not have a salary level of 3,800 to 4,000.
If you show up like this, you are likely to be interviewed by the local chamber of commerce. If you persist, the local inspection department may even come to inspect your home.
In the same way, the working hours of most anchors have a set length of time. For example, most full-time anchors work 4 to 5 hours a day, while some part-time anchors live broadcast for 2 to 3 hours.
That's why the squad leader previously said the price of 100,000 for two hours. After all, this is also the price agreed upon by the market. Different coffee positions will have different charges for different lengths of time.
However, Li Xiao immediately disrupted the time everyone had agreed to mature, and now everyone couldn't sit still.
If the other party becomes addicted to the live broadcast and broadcasts it for more than ten hours every day, then there will be no way for others to survive.
[This can’t continue like this. Let’s find someone to get in touch with this stupid young man, otherwise he will destroy our jobs. I can’t stand the live broadcast for so long in one day. 】
[Calm down, he has never tried this before, probably only once or twice, please don’t get into trouble.]
[I suggest you go and get in touch with him. You must know that his reward amount is quite large today.]
.....
In [Shiyue Besieged City], the fat boss was tallying up the accounts for the past few days. The accounts were very good-looking, but the income was actually far less than he had originally expected.
Although it looks very popular from the outside, due to the high quality of the crayfish used, the cost is actually not low at all.
Besides, my lobster restaurant is located in a busy city, and the rent costs more than 200,000 yuan a month.
Each of the 6 star chefs in the back kitchen earns a large amount of money, so even in such a popular scene, the profit is actually not high.
Just when he was considering whether to find a few more public accounts in the circle of friends and launch a few more rounds of activities, anyway, the door was knocked again today.
He frowned slightly and murmured to himself,
Why are there so many things going on today? How many times have you knocked on the door to settle accounts?
He raised his head and shouted towards the door
"Come in, the door is unlocked."
The door was pushed open and he saw clearly who came in. He said angrily.
"What's the matter? What internet celebrity is here again?"
The person who came was the young lady who was responsible for calling the number outside. At this time, his face was flushed and he was holding a mobile phone. He handed the mobile phone in front of his boss and said
"It's the anchor we met just now. He started a live broadcast and was introducing the crayfish we ordered. Boss, you are so good. You really let him help promote our store!"
"What?"
The fat boss initially looked indifferent, but after hearing clearly what his waiter was saying, he suddenly stood up and grabbed the cell phone handed to him.
After seeing the content of the live broadcast clearly, his face was immediately filled with a smile, and his already small eyes were almost hidden in the fat.
"Okay, very good, Xiao Liu, you did a great job this time. I will get an extra bonus of 3,000 yuan at the end of this month. I will keep up my efforts in the future!!"
After the words fell, he was stunned and looked at the mobile phone in his hand that was playing the live broadcast.
His face darkened, but now was not the time to criticize employees harshly.
After all, she discovered that anchor, and now that anchor can broadcast live to her lobster restaurant, it has a lot to do with her.
After thinking about the causes and consequences, he took a deep breath and spoke in as calm a tone as possible.
"Be careful during working hours from now on, especially when you are so busy. Don't look at your phone." As he said this, he handed the phone back to the young lady's hand."
.......
In the hall, Li Xiao also stopped chatting and started to focus on the iced crayfish in front of him.
