The Way of Heaven Rewards Diligence in Film and Television

Chapter 64 Live Streaming E-commerce

Da Mai was stunned, then forced a smile and waved, saying, "Hello everyone!"

The number of comments in the live stream suddenly increased, but the public opinion was unknowingly swayed.

"Writing web novels? And she's a beautiful author! Yangzi has quite the social circle!"

"A vibrant novelist? That description is hilarious! But she is indeed a cute little sister, Yoko, you beast!"

"This guy has always been very popular with women..."

"No wonder he stayed; this guy clearly has ulterior motives."

"Ahem... Don't stir up trouble and ruin the image I've just built up in the hearts of the beauties!" Lin Yang said, noticing the comments were going in the wrong direction.

Xu Hongdou rolled her eyes at Lin Yang; this guy was definitely not honest.

"Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Let me show you a batch of wood carvings that my craftsmen and I designed especially for you recently..."

""

As Lin Yang spoke, he picked up his phone and walked to the table, placing it on the phone stand. He then showed some samples of small and large wooden carvings on the table: "Twelve zodiac animal wood carvings, everyone, look how cute they are! If you like any of them later, you can place an order according to your own zodiac sign. They would be great gifts for family, friends, or children."

"We also have couple-style zodiac wood carvings! We also have Buddha and Bodhisattva statues. Look at this Maitreya Buddha wood carving, isn't it cute? I designed it myself. As a person, you should always have a smile on your face, even in hardship, you should still be happy."

"There are also the Eighteen Arhats, the protectors of Buddhism. I'm afraid that just inviting a Buddha statue or Bodhisattva won't be enough to protect you. A wooden sculpture of the Eighteen Arhats will do. Together, they are the most powerful force in Buddhism. I guarantee that all evil spirits and villains will stay far away from you."

"Dragon boats... they symbolize good fortune and prosperity, right? Business owners should consider buying one and placing it on their desk or tea table—it looks very impressive!"

"And this one, the God of Unexpected Wealth! Look at it, doesn't it remind you all of those lazy bums? As the saying goes, a horse won't get fat without night grass, and a person won't get rich without unexpected wealth. Put this up, and I guarantee each of you will make a fortune!"

When Lin Yang showed off the twelve zodiac animal wood carvings, the live stream was flooded with excited comments; the cartoonish wood carvings were really cute.

Not to mention some girls, even Lin Yang's male fans said they would buy it for their girlfriends, wives, or nephews and children.

Later, in the wood carvings of Buddha statues and Bodhisattvas, the knife skills of masters such as Xie Heshun were evident, and even laymen could tell whether a carving was good or bad.

The statues of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas, especially the Guanyin statue that grants children, are exquisitely crafted!

Without skillful craftsmanship, it's truly impossible to carve out the spirit of the subject; those mass-produced wood carvings made by machines simply cannot achieve that.

Moreover, Lin Yang's introduction of the Eighteen Arhats made the people in the live broadcast room burst into laughter. The Eighteen Arhats were actually described by Lin Yang as henchmen. This streamer is too good at making things up!

The large dragon boat-shaped ornaments were quite impressive, truly resembling a model of a ship.

The appearance of the God of Wealth has once again boosted the popularity of the live stream, which has now reached over 10,000 viewers.

"Almost everyone's here, and it's almost time. Get your hands ready, everyone, we'll be uploading the link soon..." After his introduction, Lin Yang called out, "The first wave is the twelve zodiac animal figurines. Just buy whichever you like. Come on, let me show you more details..."

As Lin Yang spoke, the two staff members Xie Zhiyao had arranged to help were already ready and began setting up the connection.

Xie Heshun and the other craftsmen watched from the sidelines, and they all became nervous, worried about whether they could sell the products and how many they could sell.

The sentiment in the live stream changed; quite a few people said they didn't want to watch the wood carvings anymore, they wanted to watch the beautiful women, and they would only watch if the beautiful women introduced the carvings themselves.

"Okay, I'll grant your wish, my darlings! Now, please welcome our assistant host, Miss Hongdou, to introduce these wood carvings..."

Lin Yang's main focus is on pampering his fans.

"Huh? I'll introduce her? I don't know anything about this!" Xu Hongdou was a little flustered. Her directness made the people in the live stream laugh. It didn't seem like she was acting. Was she someone the streamer hired to make up the numbers?

However, they didn't care about any of that. As long as the female assistants were pretty, that was enough. Some even called on Damai (a major online retailer) to come and introduce the wood carvings, saying they would buy the ones recommended by the girls.

"You bunch of people who value women more than friends..." Lin Yang said irritably.

"Hey, why are they arguing?" Xie Heshun became a little nervous.

A thin, middle-aged man next to him laughed and said, "This is to liven things up! He Shun, you're out of touch."

"I...I'm just worried! We made quite a few wood carvings this time, what if we can't sell them?" Xie Heshun said anxiously.

Seeing Xu Hongdou and Da Mai, who had been pulled over by Lin Yang, in a bit of a fluster, Ma Ye was about to step in to help when a comment in the live stream made him a little nervous. Someone actually asked who the uncle in the back was. He quickly moved aside so as not to delay their chat with the young lady.

"Haha..." Lin Yang burst out laughing. Seeing Master Ma's depressed look, Lin Yang patted him on the shoulder, indicating that he should just help out from the side like Xia Xia, and not wander around behind them.

"Alright, alright, no more joking around, the link's up! Everyone can click now," Lin Yang quickly reminded them as soon as he saw the link was up.

After Xu Hongdou and Da Mai got used to it, they also tried their best to help with the introduction, racking their brains for words. However, compared to Xu Hongdou's calm and eloquent response, Da Mai was a bit wooden. After thinking for a long time, all he could say was, "Look how cute this pig is."

The comments in the live stream were hilarious; some even said that barley was cuter than pigs.

However, everyone was very supportive. Ten of each of the twelve zodiac animals were quickly snapped up. In the live stream, people were complaining that Lin Yang was stingy and that there wasn't enough for anyone to grab.

"Sold? One hundred and twenty pieces, all sold?" Xie Heshun was surprised and couldn't believe it.

"Continue with the links, twenty of each type," Lin Yang said.

However, the second batch was also snapped up within a minute or two.

"Gone? So fast? Less than three minutes? Three hundred and ninety pieces?" Xie Heshun stared in disbelief. His wood carving workshop usually didn't sell more than a few wood carvings a day!

"This is just the beginning! The big haul hasn't even started yet!" Master Ma walked over and laughed. He had witnessed the influence of Lin Yang, this internet celebrity, today.

Next, the popularity of Buddha statues was not as high as that of the twelve zodiac animals. Lin Yang said that the Maitreya Buddha he designed sold the fastest, but all the ones he prepared were also sold out.

"Master Ma, come and help," Lin Yang called out. Master Ma immediately forgot his chatter with Xie Heshun and the other craftsmen and rushed over to help Xia Xia move the wooden carvings of the Eighteen Arhats in front of the phone camera.

Quite a few people were interested in this piece this time. After the ten items listed on the link sold out, the live stream viewers kept urging him to add more links. Lin Yang couldn't help but feel a little helpless: "Sorry, everyone, these large wooden carvings are time-consuming and labor-intensive to carve. Our craftsmen could only prepare this many at the moment. They were afraid I wouldn't be able to sell them!"

"But it's okay, we have others. This dragon boat was carved by my master, Xie Heshun, a state-level inheritor of wood carving skills. There are only three of them. If you want one, get ready. We'll have to compete on speed."
