: Here comes the chicken soup!

"Boss, two servings of braised pork knuckle rice, and two bowls of chicken soup!" Ning Yutong called out to the window, then turned to Yu Heng and said, "It's on me today!"

The two of them, carrying their braised pork knuckle rice, found a seat by the window and sat down.

Yu Heng then went to the window and brought over two bowls of chicken soup: "The chicken soup is here!"

"You eat so much every day but you don't seem to gain weight," Yu Heng said, watching Ning Yutong eat piece after piece of meat.

"Why aren't I growing!" Ning Yutong pouted, feeling wronged. "I gained several pounds over the summer!"

Yu Heng's gaze swept over her chest, and he grinned, "Your flesh has all grown in the right places."

Ning Yutong blushed and pretended to hit him: "How annoying! Talking about this while we're eating!"

"To be honest," Yu Heng shrugged, taking a bite of rice, "if you're going to make short videos, you have to take advantage of that. These days, netizens love watching that."

Ning Yutong put down her chopsticks, tilted her head to look at him, and asked, "So what kind of films do you think would suit me best?"

Yu Heng chewed his rice, quickly going through the formulas of those viral videos on Douyin in his mind.

"How about trying a costume change first? You mean suddenly changing from regular clothes into a JK (high school girl) or Lolita dress?" He took a sip of the free seaweed and egg drop soup. "It's simple, easy to get results, and it suits you."

"Crossdressing..." Ning Yutong thought, biting her chopsticks. "It feels so embarrassing."

"Shame is the right thing to do," Yu Heng raised an eyebrow. "The more shameful it is, the more viewers will watch. Look at those women writhing around like that, aren't they all famous?"

"That's different!" Ning Yutong retorted. "Dancing is about showcasing talent!"

"Cross-dressing is a talent too," Yu Heng said confidently. "Having a good figure is also a skill."

Ning Yutong chuckled at his antics and gave him a light kick: "Can't you be serious for once!"

If Ning Yutong really becomes popular on Douyin, then his content matrix will have another link added.

Virtual streamers are mainly on Bilibili, while live streams and short videos are on Douyin. The two platforms do not interfere with each other and can even drive traffic to each other.

Moreover, their styles are different, so even if they connect for a live stream, it won't affect each other's revenue; on the contrary, it can expand their fan base.

Ning Yutong has a sweet, girl-next-door style, while Bai Xinran has a cool, androgynous style.

He Mengyao has a sexy and mature style, and if you add Shen Yueling, who is a cold and aloof mature woman, to the mix...

Gee tut.

Thinking of this, Yu Heng couldn't help but curse himself in his heart.

Damn, the more I think about it, the more it feels like stamp collecting?

"What are you laughing at?" Ning Yutong looked at him strangely.

"It's nothing," Yu Heng said, his expression settling into something pleasant.

"What's the good news?" Ning Yutong pressed.

"When you become a big internet celebrity in the future, don't forget me, your mentor," Yu Heng said half-jokingly.

Ning Yutong smiled sweetly: "Of course! If it really becomes popular, I'll treat you to a big meal!"

This girl is now overjoyed at becoming an internet celebrity, little does she know that the path is far less glamorous than she imagines.

The comments section was filled with profanity, the private messages were filled with harassing messages, and there was malicious competition among peers...

"Let's go," Yu Heng stood up, "I'll take you back to your dorm."

Back in his dorm, Yu Heng turned on his computer, ready to continue writing his project proposal.

Hao Junran poked his head out from his bunk: "Heng-ge, off on a date with a pretty girl again?"

"Yes!" Yu Heng said without turning his head, "A big-breasted beauty!"

"Teach me, bro," Hao Junran grinned again, leaning closer. "I'll ask you one more time, how do you get so many beautiful girls swarming around you?"

Yu Heng turned his head and looked at him seriously: "First of all, you have to be reborn."

Hao Junran was stunned for a moment, then laughed and scolded, "Get lost!"

Yu Heng smiled and turned back to face the computer screen.

Yes, if he hadn't been reborn, he probably wouldn't be like this now.

"Hey Yu Heng," Liu Tianqi suddenly poked his head out from his bunk, "what's been going on and on about you lately, all mysterious and secretive?"

Yu Heng didn't even look up: "Start a business."

"Start a business?" Liu Tianqi's interest was piqued. "What kind of business? Bring one of your buddies along?"

Yu Heng then looked up at him and asked, "What can you do?"

"I..." Liu Tianqi scratched his head, "I can play video games!"

"Playing video games is considered a skill?" Yu Heng raised an eyebrow.

"Why doesn't that count!" Liu Tianqi retorted, "I'm a Diamond rank player in League of Legends!"

"Wait a minute," Yu Heng said dismissively. "I'll tell you after I finish writing."

Virtual streamers are too busy to keep up with their schedules right now, so they can't focus on game streaming for the time being.

Besides, even the Diamond rank isn't enough to compete with, and besides, the game Liu Tianqi is good at is called Narrow City, which hasn't been released yet.

Liu Tianqi shrunk back dejectedly.

Yu Heng continued writing the project proposal when his WeChat buzzed again.

This time it's Bai Xinran.

Bai Xinran: "Boss, I've recorded the video for the submission and sent it to your email. Please take a look and see if it's okay?"

Yu Heng opened his email and downloaded the video.

"Hello everyone, I'm your new virtual YouTuber, Ye Lingyuan~"

The voice is the magnetic tone one uses when the business is open.

"I'm a Xiuhound from another world, and I love playing with humans~"

Yu Heng watched the video and couldn't help but laugh.

This girl's acting skills are getting better and better.

He replied, "Okay, send it."

Bai Xinran replied instantly: "OK! Boss, today's live stream revenue has hit a new record!"

A smug expression followed.

Yu Heng tapped his fingers on the keyboard: "Got it, keep it up."

Yu Heng scratched his hair, feeling a little irritated.

"What are you writing that's so painful?" Hao Junran leaned closer and glanced at the screen. "A club proposal? You're starting a club?"

"Yes, a virtual YouTuber community."

"A virtual YouTuber?" Hao Junran's eyes lit up. "You mean the kind of YouTuber you watched before? Are you serious?"

Yu Heng glanced at him: "Otherwise what? Do you think I really want to be number one?"

"Sure, sure, can I come with you?" Hao Junran pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Are you interested too?"

"Yes!" Hao Junran immediately pulled up a chair and sat down. "I can edit videos! My skills aren't great, but I learn quickly!"

Yu Heng raised an eyebrow. This person did indeed later become a director at a short video company, so his editing skills should be quite good.

"Sure," Yu Heng nodded, "Anyway, the club needs members to be established."

"no problem!"

"Then why don't we all stay in the same dorm?" Hou Xudong chimed in.

Yu Heng looked at them and suddenly remembered a Douyin account.

It was filmed in a university dormitory. I think it would work with the people in my own dormitory too?

"Sure, I happen to have something I want to film, it's guaranteed to go viral!"

The next afternoon, Yu Heng took the completed proposal to Qin Lu.

In the office, Qin Lu was looking at something on the computer.

"Advisor," Yu Heng handed over the printed proposal, "this is the proposal I wrote, please take a look."

Qin Lu took the document, adjusted her glasses, and began to read it carefully.

Yu Heng stood to the side, unconsciously sizing her up.

Today she wore a light gray suit jacket over a silk shirt, with the collar slightly open.

This woman's fashion sense is getting better and better...

"It's well written," Qin Lu looked up, "more professional than I expected."

Yu Heng breathed a sigh of relief: "Then what do you think..."

"I can be the mentor," Qin Lu said, placing the proposal on the table, "but there are a few conditions."

"Please speak," Yu Heng immediately replied.

"First, club activities must not interfere with studies," Qin Lu said, holding up one finger. "Second, all livestream content must be wholesome and positive. Third..."

She paused, then looked at Yu Heng: "You have to promise to take good care of Qin Ya."

"No problem!" Yu Heng patted his chest. "I'll definitely treat her like my own sister!"

Qin Lu looked at him with a half-smile: "That would be best."

Yu Heng asked impatiently, "So, advisor, when can we start recruiting new members?"

"Next week," Qin Lu thought for a moment, "I'll submit the materials first, and once the department approves them, we can start promoting them."

"Okay, goodbye, counselor!"

Yu Heng was in a great mood as he left the office.
