I met my whole family through Baidu Tieba.

Chapter 171 Brothers, here to learn about fashion again?

After exchanging contact information with Bi Xiangyu, Shen Kang drove He Qiuzhu around the campus again on Xiaodong Street, looking for a quiet place to rest.

It's not for any other reason than that he likes quiet, and when no one is around, he likes to put his hand in He Qiuzhu's hand, which has absolutely nothing to do with it.

But frustratingly, he simply couldn't find such a place:

As for the grove, it's still dark, so the view isn't very obstructed. As for classrooms, it's hard to find one that's empty, and like last time, someone might suddenly barge in while you're looking around. There are private areas, though: the house, the laundry room, and the 302 study room, all of which Shen Kang rented himself.

However, both of these places have now been transformed into commercial spaces and are open to the public.

"So why did I create this 302 study room?"

Shen Kang felt depressed thinking about this.

Having driven He Qiuzhu around the campus back, he now stood at the door of study room 302, looking at the lively students inside, and couldn't help but sigh.

If this place next to the house and laundry room had been empty, couldn't he have led He Qiuzhu in now, pulled down the curtain, and created a private space?

"well----"

Guo Pinyan came out of the coffee shop next door at this moment. When she saw Shen Kang there, she subconsciously wanted to go around him.

He also saw the grand scene at the entrance of study room 302 this afternoon, and after learning a little about it, he realized that this was another new thing that Lao Shen had come up with.

This gave Guo Pinyan a huge headache: How come every time Lao Shen comes up with something new, business is booming?

Oh no, this Misty Rain Tea Lady isn't very good. That might be why Guo Pinyan bravely came to patronize the business back then.

However, the popularity of other things, whether it's the 302 study room or this new business, makes Guo Pinyan very envious.

So he couldn't be bothered to chat with Shen Kang today. Seeing Shen Kang here, he wanted to walk around him, especially since Shen Kang's nuclear-weapon-level girlfriend was right next to him.

Guo Pinyan even deliberately shrank her head and raised one hand to cover her face, afraid that Shen Kang would see her.

But after taking only two steps around, Guo Pinyan heard Shen Kang sighing and saw that Shen Kang looked worried and troubled. This made Guo Pinyan happy instantly. She decided not to go around anymore, put down her hand that was covering her face, and walked over with her head held high.

"Old Shen, what's with the sigh?"

Guo Pinyan said cheerfully, "If you're unhappy about something, tell us so we can all have a laugh."

Shen Kang glanced at him and sighed again: "I'm annoyed by this 302 study room. It's so crowded every day now, there's not even a quiet place to hide away. Sigh, I really regret setting up this 302 study room, Lao Guo. Your coffee shop is so much better, it's always so quiet."

Guo Pinyan stormed off, his face contorted with embarrassment.

He should have held back; why did he have to go and do that?

Shen Kang ignored Guo Pinyan, staring at the 302 study room before him. He thought to himself, "It's not even open yet. There's no other way but to think of another way to create some private space." —Aha! Now that the Beiming Community is online, we need a new team. These people need office space; they can't just go from classroom to classroom with their computers, can they? And then there's Xianyu.com; as it grows, the number of members will increase, and everyone will need office space too. Hmm, I can apply to the school for a few startup rooms. I don't even have to pay for it myself; I can get private space! Fantastic! ————

After thinking it through, Shen Kang stopped sighing and went for a drive with He Qiuzhu.

After it got dark, it was almost time for the family games every night, so he took He Qiuzhu back to her dormitory and then went back to his own.

Back in his dorm, after turning on his computer, Shen Kang first habitually checked Xianyu.com, only to see two rows of articles at the bottom of the homepage titled "Recharge with Ghost Money".

"—How magnificent!"

Shen Kang was amused by this scene.

If you didn't know better, you'd think this was a website for the underworld.

However, he still quite liked the concept of "ghost money," finding it amusing and possessing significant educational value. So he logged into the backend to check who had first used the term "ghost money," only to discover it was "Savior Li Luo" again.

You're always there during raids on prostitution.

Shen Kang thought to himself, and felt even more strongly that Ye Jintong was a talented person.

Then Shen Kang also looked at the "Square" section of Beiming Community and those interest-based communities.

Because of the long-term hype surrounding the trial vouchers, and the massive public participation resulting from Shen Kang's final "flood" of funding, many students at Yangko University of Science and Technology held trial vouchers. Many of them were eager to convert their vouchers into cash, which is why the number of registered users on the first day of the Beiming Community was very high.

Furthermore, since ghost money is equivalent to real money, and you can earn points for logging in daily and posting for the first time each day, it's like earning two cents for each post you make every day!

Therefore, there are many posts on the "square".

However, after a quick scan, Shen Kang found that there were very few high-quality posts; most of them were just low-quality posts aimed at earning points.

"We still need to focus on creating content —"

Shen Kang thought to himself silently.

His strategy of offering trial vouchers has attracted a large number of users to the Beiming community, but to retain these users in the long term, high-quality content is still needed.

As Shen Kang was pondering this, Feng Moquan, who was playing on his phone next to him, suddenly looked up and asked, "Old Shen, Zhong Lin asked me to ask you, what kind of content should we post on your Beiming Forum to get more views?"

"what?"

Shen Kang was lost in thought and didn't pay attention. He had to ask Feng Moquan to repeat himself before he understood what Feng Moquan was saying. He casually asked, "Zhong Lin is also using the Beiming Community?"

"Hmm," Feng Moquan said, "She's been hoarding trial vouchers but hasn't sold them yet. Now that she can only sell them on your Beiming Forum, she's started using them."

"Then she saw on your site that if a post gets a lot of replies and is popular, there are points rewards, so she wanted to try it out, but her post quickly sank and hardly anyone replied."

"You created this forum, so she wanted me to ask you what kind of content would get more replies."

I see.

Shen Kang thought for a moment and asked, "Does she have any knowledge about fashion?"

Without a second thought, Feng Moquan immediately replied, "She's quite good at it; she always looks great in her outfits."

Shen Kang said, "Then have her post some fashion tutorials. She should include photos of herself wearing different clothes and teaching others how to dress. Many freshmen girls are just starting university and don't know much about fashion; they still dress in a very outdated way. If they see these fashion tutorials, they'll definitely be interested, and the posts will be very popular."

Feng Moquan was a little skeptical: "Really? Girls would be really interested in this kind of thing?"

Shen Kang retorted, "You understand girls, but I understand girls?"

Feng Moquan thought about it and realized that, in terms of understanding women, Lao Shen was indeed unbeatable among all the people he knew.

So he lowered his head and started typing away, sending Shen Kang's suggestion to Zhong Lin on the other end.

Shen Kang continued browsing the Beiming Community, and while he was browsing, a post popped up in the square.

He didn't recognize the poster's ID, but when he clicked in and saw the pictures, he recognized it—it was a post by Zhong Lin.

In this post, Zhong Lin followed his advice and posted three outfits, two pictures of each outfit, for a total of six pictures. She also included text explaining the key points of each outfit in the spaces between the pictures.

"It's really big—"

Shen Kang roused himself and carefully examined each photo, diligently studying and learning the styling techniques depicted.

After carefully studying the styling tips in the six pictures, he logged out of his main account, "AAA Building Materials Wholesale General Manager Wang," and logged into a new account. He replied to the post: "Thank you so much, sister! I've always been clumsy and have no idea how to dress. Luckily, you taught me. Thank you so much. Could you teach me about innerwear next time? I'm the same age as you, but I've never been good at choosing bras."

Then, send it.

After sending, the post refreshed automatically.

Shen Kang then saw that in the short time he had been browsing the post, there were already more than a dozen replies to Zhong Lin's post.

"sofa"

"Bench"

"Really? It's that big?"

"Which class are you in, junior? Could you please leave your contact information?"

"It's too big, it must be fake. If it's real, I'll eat it directly."

"Hey upstairs, trying to freeload, huh?"

After looking at it for a while, Shen Kang refreshed the page and found that there were more than a dozen more replies. Even his own comment now had three replies.

"Hehe, you'd better be a sister."

"Teaching you how to style inner layers, huh? Dude, I could hear what you're up to from miles away."

"Junior, are you really the same age as the original poster? Check your private messages."

Shen Kang actually checked his private messages and found a new one. He opened it and saw it was from the ID that had asked him to view the messages.

It was sent over, and it only contained three simple words: "Look at the chest."

"This must be a junior or senior."

Shen Kang instantly formed a judgment about this ID.

These days, freshmen are relatively shy; only juniors and seniors are so outgoing.

Wang Pan isn't in the dorm right now; he's probably studying hard in study room 302 again.

Wang Pan's computer thus became a plaything for Jin Chao and Feng Moquan. The two had agreed to take turns digging, and now that it was time, Jin Chao left the computer and went to read a novel on his phone.

Feng Moquan sat down in front of Wang Pan's computer, opened the Beiming Community, and wanted to boost the popularity of Zhong Lin's post.

As soon as he entered and found Zhong Lin's post, Feng Moquan discovered that he no longer needed to boost the post's popularity; the post's popularity was rapidly increasing.

"Old Shen's advice really worked! He really understands women!" Feng Moquan thought with delight. But after carefully reading the post, he discovered...

Old Shen doesn't understand women, Old Shen understands men.

"Old Shen, I hate you," Feng Moquan said bitterly.

Shen Kang was about to call Li Su when he heard this and was puzzled: "Why do you hate me?"

"I saw Zhong Lin's post," Feng Moquan said.

Shen Kang understood what he meant.

It's likely that Feng Moquan felt uncomfortable seeing his crush post photos online for so many perverts to see, and he complained that Shen Kang had given him a bad idea.

Shen Kang immediately apologized, "It was indeed an oversight on my part. It's alright, Lao Feng, we're all brothers, I'll ban her post right away."

Shen Kang didn't waste any time with empty words; he simply logged into the administrator account and banned Zhong Lin's post.

After this action, Zhong Lin's post was still in the forum, and other users could see it, but they couldn't click on it.

The Beiming Community also has a "Follow" function. Users can follow other users.

Some people had already followed Zhong Lin when they first saw this post. But even those who followed Zhong Lin couldn't access the post from her profile page.

Feng Moquan tried and found that Zhong Lin's post was indeed blocked; he couldn't access it no matter what he did. He was deeply moved: "Old Shen, you're truly my good buddy!"

"Absolutely, absolutely!"

The two were just getting along well when Feng Moquan's phone rang.

Feng Moquan picked up his phone and saw it was Zhong Lin calling. As soon as he answered, Zhong Lin's anxious voice came through: "Feng Moquan, why was my fashion post banned? Quickly, have Shen Kang check what happened!"

Feng Moquan instinctively wanted to say that he was the one who asked Lao Shen to ban Zhong Lin's posts, but luckily he wasn't stupid enough to say it out loud.

Feng Moquan wanted to say again, "Zhong Lin, I saw your post. Because you are so talented, it's a bit embarrassing. Is it not appropriate to post those photos?"

But after thinking about it, he still didn't dare to say it.

Finally, Feng Moquan simply said gently, "Okay, don't worry, let me ask Lao Shen what happened."

He wanted to hang up and talk to Shen Kang, but Zhong Lin told him to stay on the phone.

Helpless, Feng Moquan could only pretend to say, "Old Shen, Zhong Lin's post on your Beiming Forum has been banned. Why don't you check what happened?"

As she spoke, she gave Zhong Lin's ID and kept winking and mouthing to Shen Kang.

Shen Kang then said, "Oh, let me see—I see, it was a mistake by the people below. Shall I unseal it?"

"Quick, untie it!" Zhong Lin's voice came from the other end.

She was feeling a sense of unprecedented satisfaction and happiness as she saw her post gain popularity so quickly and receive so many comments. Then, inexplicably, it was banned, which naturally made her very anxious.

Feng Moquan said helplessly, "Then untie it."

Shen Kang then manipulated the system and deactivated Zhong Lin's post.

You know what, Zhong Lin's post is actually getting pretty good attention. In just a short while, someone posted asking why they couldn't access the post; they wanted to learn about fashion!

Below, a group of people echoed, "Yeah, yeah, this is the only way for guys to learn about fashion, everyone needs it."

After the issue was resolved, the popularity of Zhong Lin's post continued to rise again.

Shen Kang continued what he was doing, picked up his phone, and called Li Su.

We must not forget our sisters.

Guys, learn how to dress! Girls, learn how to get fit!
