"Boss, what's our budget for booking the entire venue?"

Lin Ran thought for a moment and calculated that if there were 1,000 people, then with two venues, each venue would have an average of 500 people.

"About 20,000 per family."

He roughly estimated the conversion rate and felt that the price was acceptable to both companies.

Xia Chan gasped, "Boss, so you're going to spend forty thousand yuan all at once?"

Lin Ran was taken aback: "Why would I spend money? I'm asking them for money."

Xia Chan and the other two were a little confused for a moment.

"Didn't you want to book the whole place?"

Lin Ran rolled her eyes at her: "Booking the whole place costs money? I'm bringing them customers, don't you understand?"

Xia Chan was somewhat confused. How could someone use another person's space and then ask for money? What kind of business is that?

Lin Ran sighed, "To put it another way, I'm not going to rent their space, but rather bring these people to their store, and these people are all potential customers."

"Take a coffee shop as an example. You can't just stand there like an idiot, right? You'd have to order a coffee or something, wouldn't you?"

"When the two of them reminisce about the past, will they still remember that they first met in this coffee shop?"

Xia Chan felt she understood something.

Lin Ran was speechless at her reaction.

"Come on, let me put it another way."

"If you said a female college student went to work as a bunny girl in a KTV, you would definitely think she was improper."

"But if you change it to her working at a karaoke bar at night and studying diligently during the day, then you'll think she's very hardworking."

"Is that clear now?"

Xia Chan's eyes gradually brightened.

"Boss! I understand!"

"If I feel tired as soon as I start work, you'll definitely think I'm not ambitious."

"But if I say I'm not feeling well but still insist on going to work, then you'll think I love my job, and you'll give me a promotion, a raise, and stock options, right!"

"You...you're a real little devil."

In fact, Lin Ran was quite satisfied with Xia Chan's performance as her assistant.

He is meticulous and diligent, and can remember everything Lin Ran tells him to do, but he is a bit of a natural airhead.

However, Lin Ran didn't see it as a big problem.

The "developmental" approach involves gradually shaping employees into the form you envision.

In the evening, Jiangning University held its freshman welcome ceremony.

It is not only a celebration of the complete end of the freshmen's military training, but also a celebration of the official start of the freshmen's college life.

The speeches were as boring as ever. Several school leaders took turns speaking, repeating the same things that hadn't changed in over a decade.

However, people like Lin Ran are still a minority.

Most students still looked forward to university life and listened attentively to the speeches of the leaders.

The event seemed to officially begin only after the various clubs and student organizations started performing.

The performance reached its climax when several senior female students from the street dance club played Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance," with its fierce and direct rhythm.

The senior student leading the dance tossed her long hair, exuding a primal hormonal aura mixed with youthful restlessness. As she swayed her young and graceful body, the naive junior students below were all aroused.

Lin Ran shook his head as he watched the performance on stage.

The spring breeze knows my heart, but it chills my soul to the bone.

on Monday.

Aside from Lin Ran, the other three tough guys in room 508 got up early again to get ready.

"No way, it's only 6:30! What the hell are you guys doing?"

"Today is the first day of the event, so I need to make a good impression on my girlfriend."

While spraying hairspray, Ding Facai said that he had finally managed to borrow hairspray from Liu Zhihua after much pleading last time, but this time he was smarter and bought a bottle in advance to have on hand.

Lin Ran raised an eyebrow, took out his phone, and called Ye Li.

"Boss... what is it..." Ye Li's groggy voice came through the receiver, clearly still half asleep.

"Wake up, I need to ask you something."

Lin Ran paused for a moment: "Did you clearly explain in your forum post that the entire matching process for the event was anonymous, and that only those who made it to the end would be able to meet in person?"

Ye Li seemed to have sobered up a bit: "It's written clearly, it's written very plainly, you can see for yourself if you don't believe me."

"Alright, it's nothing now, you can go back to sleep."

Ye Li: "..."

Lin Ran figured Ye Li wouldn't make such a mistake, so just to be safe, he checked the post again.

"The matching is completely anonymous; we won't be able to meet in person for a week, didn't you know?"

The group had stopped to listen to Lin Ran speak as soon as he called Ye Li.

Ding Facai and Liu Zhihua looked at Zhao Feiyu.

"Old Zhao, give me an explanation."

Zhao Feiyu: "..."

He didn't even look up, focusing only on applying some foundation he'd gotten from somewhere to his hands.

He has washed it off and applied the ointment several times.

"What explanation can I give you? What did I do?"

Ding Facai roared, "You fucking got up so early to get ready! I thought I was going to see my girlfriend today!"

Liu Zhihua chimed in, "Yeah, if I hadn't seen you already had foundation on, I wouldn't have gotten up so early."

Zhao Feiyu asked, somewhat puzzled, "Didn't you guys see the tasks for the first day?"

Ding Facai and Liu Zhihua turned on their phones.

【Day 1 Task】Exchange Fragments of the Day: Take a picture of the scenery outside the window or an item at hand and share it with the other person.

The two looked up, somewhat bewildered.

"What does this have to do with you getting up early to get ready?"

"Oh, I'm going to include a picture of my long, slender fingers in the photo."

"So you got up at six just to put on makeup for your hands?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"Holy shit!"

To ensure the interactive effect of the couple's activities throughout the week, Lin Ran specially set several tasks for each day, such as sharing photos, exchanging little secrets unrelated to their identities, and agreeing to watch the same movie at the same time.

Ding Facai and Liu Zhihua mocked Zhao Feiyu, calling him a scheming bitch and a repressed pervert.

In the end, the three of them reached some kind of agreement. The two of them each received a capful of foundation from Zhao Feiyu and left satisfied.

Unable to sleep due to the noise from the three people, Lin Ran sighed and decided to get up as well.

He had just gotten out of bed when his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Huang Lingyue calling.

"Lin Ran, it's my roommate's birthday tomorrow. Shall we have dinner together tomorrow night?"

He then remembered that he still owed Huang Lingyue a meal. After thinking about it, he figured it wouldn't interfere with his work tomorrow night, so he agreed.

"OK."

Just as I hung up the phone, Xia Chan called again.

"Boss, it's a deal!"

"What deal has been reached?"

"It's about Longhu and me, they've both reached an agreement!"

Is that all?

Lin Ran felt the world was a bit confusing. He didn't have any expectations for the two of them at all. He just wanted them to scout out the situation. He originally planned to do this himself.

He was a little curious about what the two of them had talked about with the shop owner.

Today is the first day of classes for freshmen at Jiangning University, and Lin Ran estimates that these freshmen won't skip class.

"Let's do it tonight, after they finish their classes today, and have them come to me."
