When Bae Joo Hyun returned to the store with Yoo Shin An, the first thing she saw was Kang Seulgi who was standing aside and couldn't stop sighing.
As for why Kang Seulgi sighed...
Because of spending money indiscriminately, Son Seungwan, who was in charge of money in the group, gave him a severe scolding.
Bae Zhuhyun let go of Liu Xin'an's big hand and walked to Jiang Seulgi curiously: "What's wrong, Seulgi?"
"I was scolded."
"ah?"
Son Seungwan, who was drinking water at the side, glared at Jiang Seulgi, which made her shrink back in fear.
But in front of Liu Xin'an, they couldn't say anything more. After all, going to get the cake without telling Liu Xin'an was part of the surprise they prepared for Liu Xin'an. If it was exposed at this time, it would definitely not be a surprise.
"How's the situation in the store?"
Bae Zhuhyun also seemed to be aware of the reason why Jiang Seulgi was scolded. She changed the topic, reached out and gently stroked the sister's back, comforting the poor Jiang Seulgi in her own way.
It's not yet known what Jiang Seulgi committed, but for the sake of Seulgi helping her get the cake, she still planned to appease the girl a little.
"Today's results are very good, almost 100 cups have been produced."
"Then do we make 600 yuan?"
"Well... it's almost the same, but a little troublesome is that the materials in the store may not be enough."
Even fruit tea is popular.
In the hot summer, watermelon juice and lemon juice have the best sales, and almost every customer who comes to the store will order a glass.
This also resulted in a serious shortage of watermelons and lemons in the store, and they had no way to replenish the supplies. If they ran out of these two fruits, they would have to temporarily remove them.
Judging from the current situation, nearly 100 cups have been sold in just 3 hours of operation, which is already a very good result.
But there is still a big gap between their target of 5,000 yuan, which is almost 1,000 cups.
"We're open until about 10 o'clock at night, right?"
"right."
"Xin'an, can you contact the store owner to give us some channels for replenishment?" Pei Zhuxuan thought for a moment, and then began to direct the overall situation.
She is the eldest among everyone present and the leader of the group. At this time, she needs to stabilize everyone's emotions.
"Okay, I'll call and ask first."
Bae Zhuhyun's vigorous and resolute behavior has always been a point of irritation for Liu Xin'an. He had no idea of rejection and smiled and cooperated with his girlfriend's instructions.
"Excuse me, when Xin'an and I went out to attract guests just now, we got a lot of feedback from fans. Everyone said that only 50 places were open for the performance the day after tomorrow, which was too small. Everyone wanted to see our performance...
"
When she was wandering outside just now, she did hear the voices of many fans.
Among them, the most resentment is about the restriction of performance quotas the day after tomorrow.
Indeed, except for the family concert a few years ago, they have never performed in China.
Although this is not a serious performance, it is at least the first time they performed alone in China, which is very memorable.
However, due to the venue and other factors, they were unable to hold any particularly large-scale performances with great fanfare.
Fans will feel pity and regret, which is also a helpless move.
Bae Zhuhyun has always been a soft-hearted person.
Before dating Liu Xin'an, her first priority in life, besides her family and members, was always her fans.
Be it autograph sessions or various offline fan meeting activities... as long as there is an opportunity to meet fans, she has always tried her best to meet their fans' requirements.
And this time...
She still wants to be the Irene who dotes on everyone in the eyes of her fans.
Pei Zhuxuan looked at Li Yanzhu and pointed to the door.
"Can't we put some temporary speakers on the beach outside? There are no residential areas nearby. Can we temporarily hold some activities outside at night, whether it's performances or singing, so that we can satisfy the fans' requirements while also going further?
Selling our cold drinks.”
Although she is not smart, after so many years as an artist, she also has a very good business acumen.
Even if it's the beach, usually around eight or nine o'clock in the evening, there won't be many guests staying here.
Usually the store is open until eight or nine o'clock, mainly because it also has takeout service.
But the store will definitely not provide takeout service during the few days they are here. They can't even finish the orders from the fans who come to the scene, so how can they have time to open takeout...
So, we must find a way to make use of these wasted hours.
Her suggestion also made everyone's eyes light up. As artists, they would never dislike performing. What's more, performing for Chinese fans was their original intention of coming to China to record the group variety show.
They don't consider so many benefits like the company does. They only know that Chinese fans have put in a lot of effort to achieve such results this year.
Since Chinese fans are so awesome, they must work hard to give back to everyone.
This suggestion also made Li Yanzhu start thinking.
In fact, they initially thought about whether they could let Bae Zhuhyun and the others hold more fan activities.
But the problem is, they never thought that Pei Zhuhyun and the others would make money so easily.
Who knew that Liu Xinan suddenly found such a powerful friend and directly opened a ready-made cold drink shop!
However, temporary changes are always the most interesting aspect of variety shows.
Since Bae Joo Hyun has brought it up, Lee Yeon Joo is also happy to agree.
All they have to do is to negotiate with the management of this beach. This kind of thing is not difficult for them since they have received official support.
Then there is only one remaining question.
"Well... ok, let's get in touch first and see if we can temporarily get some equipment for your performance."
There is no S-M branch in Xiamen, so if you want to temporarily borrow some equipment for performances, you still need to go through some twists and turns.
But at this time, Li Chenglu, who had been unknown to the side, suddenly raised his hand.
"I have a friend who plays music here, I can borrow it from him."
"Really?" X5
Her calm voice made Pei Zhuhyun and others exclaim in surprise.
"Why do you still have friends who play music?" Pei Zhuxuan knew Li Chenglu very well. Li Chenglu had helped her more than once like a god descending from the earth... But she didn't expect that when it came to borrowing equipment, Li Chenglu actually
There is also a way.
"I know a lot of friends from the music section of Xiaopo Station." Li Chenglu looked innocent. Although she didn't contribute, she was still a relatively famous user of Xiaopo Station.
Moreover, since her identity was exposed in Liu Xin'an's live broadcast room, she has used the small website as a circle of friends when she has nothing to do, and updates some beautiful selfies from time to time, which has also allowed her to accumulate a lot of fans.
Now she has transformed into Bae Zhuhyun's future eldest sister-in-law. Her younger siblings are all in the entertainment industry. Is it normal for her to pay attention to music?
"But can't we borrow the equipment for the performance the day after tomorrow two days in advance?"
It would be great if Li Chenglu was willing to help, but Sun Shengwan couldn't help but ask.
Li Yanzhu smiled helplessly: "The studio that the production team contacted can only rent out the studio for that day. I didn't expect everyone to make money so smoothly at first. I thought it would be very hard for us in these two days."
"You really underestimate us!"
"That's right! It turns out that we are excellent everywhere!"
The fact that the production team was caught off guard made everyone very excited. After all, they have been frustrated by the program team these days. It is not easy to make the program team suffer once.
"If you, Cheng Lu, can borrow the equipment, our production team will pay for the cost." Li Yanzhu looked at Li Chenglu and said sincerely.
After hearing this, Pei Zhuxuan hugged Li Chenglu and began to negotiate the conditions with the program team skillfully: "We Chenglu have helped the production team so much, so can the requirements for us be appropriate?
Relax?"
"...It was Cheng Lu who helped, not everyone at Red Velvet. What's the connection?"
"We called Cheng Lu, and we are Cheng Lu's employers now!"
"We only have an employment relationship, does the boss also have to interfere with employees' social interactions?"
Li Chenglu chuckled and broke away from Pei Zhuxuan's arm, and then slowly walked to Li Yanzhu's side under Pei Zhuxuan's incredible gaze.
Well...she is a loyal fan of Red velvet and a loyal audience of Tuanzhong.
There are many opportunities to fight with Bae Zhuhyun and the others, but there are not many opportunities to see Bae Zhuhyun and the others suffer.
She showed her cards, and she stood on the same side as the show crew on the matter of bullying Red Velvet!
"Ah! Li Chenglu!"
Bae Zhu Hyun was anxious. Even if her boyfriend was instigated by Lee Yeon Joo, why was her sister-in-law also instigated?
She looked angrily at this woman who had claimed to be her loyal fan countless times and gritted her teeth.
She decided to go to the WeChat group to complain to Park Zhenshu.
"Can you really contact us to borrow equipment?" Li Yanzhu ignored Bae Zhuhyun's dissatisfaction.
"I'll make a phone call first. What are the specific equipment needed?" Li Chenglu also cooperated and ignored Pei Zhuxuan.
"Ah! Let me tell you." Cheng Taiqian jumped out. This is the time when the agent needs to come forward.
Then, Li Chenglu followed Cheng Taiqian to the side to make a phone call, leaving only Bae Zhuhyun and others with wide eyes.
"Sister Zhuxun, are Sister Cheng Lu really our fans?"
"Sister Cheng Lu, you don't know. Rather than pampering us, she would rather see our embarrassment." Sun Shengwan snorted. She knew this guy Li Chenglu very well. When he chatted with her, he couldn't
I like sending her emoticons.
So she knew very early on that Li Chenglu was definitely not as honest as he seemed.
At this time, Liu Xin'an, who went to call the boss to inquire about replenishment channels, also came back.
With a smile on his face, he was about to share the good news with everyone, but he found Pei Zhuhyun pouting her pink lips and looking aggrieved.
This cute look instantly softened his heart. He came to Pei Zhuhyun nervously and asked worriedly: "What's wrong?"
"We were betrayed by Cheng Lu."
Pei Zhuxuan was very annoyed and hit her innocent boyfriend with her small fist, and told Liu Xin'an about the "collusion" between Li Chenglu and Li Yanzhu just now.
Liu Xin'an grinned. He stretched out his hand to control Pei Zhuxuan's little hand, and said with a smile: "You don't know what kind of person Li Chenglu is. She wants to see you suffer."
"She will never get an autograph from us again," said Bae Zhuhyun, who was extremely vindictive.
Liu Xin'an shook his head with a smile and changed the topic: "Ah, I asked the store manager about the replenishment. She said that she would help us directly contact the nearby fruit shop. The fruit should be delivered in a while."
The news of the supply also made everyone feel relieved. Of course, while they were discussing whether to hold a temporary fan meeting in the evening, the store was still open.
Many fans sat in the store holding a glass of cold drink and drank non-stop.
Although they can't understand everyone's chatting, just watching Red Velvet chatting together is already a very satisfying thing for fans.
Soon, Li Chenglu paid the price for her "stinky affinity" with Li Yanzhu.
No matter who she went to talk to, she would always get a soft hum. This temper tantrum continued until Pei Zhuhyun and Liu Xin'an went out to attract customers for the second time, and they were slightly relieved.
This time Bae Zhuhyun and Liu Xin'an went out again, and they had to do more than just attract customers. At the same time, they also wanted to tell their fans that they would hold a small fan meeting at the beach tonight.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, there will not be too many performances in such an impromptu fan meeting. More performances must be put on the official stage the day after tomorrow.
That's it, the temporary activities for these two days... are more about chatting with Chinese fans, and then performing some other songs, solos and the like.
Thanks to them singing a lot, otherwise it wouldn't be enough for these few days.
"We will have a performance at the beach in the evening. If you can, I hope you can come and watch it~"
"Is there a stage tonight? Isn't it the day after tomorrow?"
As soon as this news came out, it received surprise inquiries from fans.
Pei Zhuxuan smiled and nodded, pretending to be mysterious and replied: "It was a temporary decision~"
"Wow! Will there be a limit on the number of people this time?"
"Well... there is no limit, but if there are too many people, it will definitely cause trouble, so I suggest you come here early~"
"!!! Let's go line up now!"
"Eh? It can't be so early...it's still a long time before night."
Bae Zhuhyun was dumbfounded by the enthusiasm of the fans. It was not yet dinner time, and their performance was scheduled to start at 8pm, so there was still plenty of time.
But her advice went unanswered, because after learning that they would perform on the beach in a while, the fans who had originally gathered around them all ran to the store.
Well...it seems that Seulgi and the others will have to work hard again in the next period of time.
———
The news that Red Velvet will perform at the beach spread instantly on the Internet.
Compared to the fans from other provinces who are stamping their feet and beating their chests, it is not an exaggeration to say that the local fans in Xiamen are enjoying the Chinese New Year.
There are many popular and beautiful beaches in Xiamen. In fact, the beach where Pei Zhuxuan and the others are located is not a particularly famous beach in Xiamen.
But... things are different today. The celebrity effect brought by Red Velvet has made the beach area now full of people.
At this time, there are still three hours before the official start of the fan meeting, but now there are almost more than 200 people gathered on the beach.
Liu Xin'an gradually felt that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction. He came to Cheng Taiqian and lowered his voice: "Brother Taiqian, have you contacted the relevant security personnel?"
"We have contacted you. We can only allow a maximum of 300 fans to participate in this event. If there are more fans, we will have to refuse." Cheng Taiqian nodded, and then he took out a bracelet, "I will put these bracelets together later."
Distributed to lucky fans, those who don’t have bracelets will have to wait until tomorrow."
"fair enough."
With these preparations, Liu Xin'an finally felt a lot more relieved.
The news that he was planning to hold a meet-and-greet event also meant that he and Bae Zhuhyun no longer had to travel all the way to attract customers. He came behind the counter and replaced Kim Ye-rim and Park Soo-young.
We can't keep these two girls busy making cold drinks, and there are still many fans of them who came all the way.
"Thank you for your hard work, brother Xin'an~"
"If you don't understand anything, remember to ask your seniors in time."
Park Soo-young and Kim Ye-rin also thanked Liu Xin'an in their own way for coming to help.
Liu Xin'an nodded and bowed cooperatively: "Thank you for your hard work, seniors."
Well, it was a way of answering that was in line with their preferences. They both smiled brightly, and then came to the counter and started to make trouble for Jiang Seulgi and Son Seungwan.
Of course, to add to the chaos, the two of them were actually just chatting with the fans who came to place orders.
The departure of the two slowed down the production of cold drinks, but the fans didn't mind getting the cold drinks late, so overall there was no trouble.
"Who did you borrow the equipment from?"
While busy with the work at hand, Liu Xin'an looked at Li Chenglu beside him and asked curiously.
Even he didn't know that Li Chenglu had such a wide network of contacts.
"You don't know a few friends from the music district."
"Do you have anyone in the music area now?"
"As I said, there is a popular science area, a digital area, a music area, a dance area, a gaming area, and a living area. Which channel do I not have any friends on?"
"Awesome."
Liu Xin'an admired from the bottom of his heart, and then he felt like he was being patted on the head.
"Yeah, don't say bad words on our show!"
Liu Xinan turned around innocently and looked at Bae Zhuhyun, who had her hands on her hips and was a little sullen.
"The program team will watch the editing."
"They don't know how."
"Then it's not a curse word, it's just a way for us to show our admiration."
"Obviously you don't let me say anything."
Pei Zhuxuan muttered, and then she also extended her white and tender hands.
Liu Xin'an was stunned and quickly took away the things in his hands.
"what are you up to?"
"I'm here to help you. I can't be lazy all the time."
Bae Zhuhyun answered as she should, then she reached for a lemon and showed a bright smile.
"No need to thank me."
"...Who wants to thank you?"
"Hehe, don't be duplicitous, fans will laugh at you~"
