I just want to sell products, but you're forcing me to perform talents.

hiss--!

The needle-like pain made Ye Xian gasp.

The air around us seemed to have risen a few degrees.

Holy crap, really? It's just 36 hours of continuous video editing, and this is considered a big deal?

My nickname is "Liver King"!

As the pain in his brain gradually subsided, Ye Xian slowly opened his eyes.

—Hmm, where is this?

In front of me was a huge house, with hundreds of bottles of wine neatly stacked inside.

The wine box was labeled with the four large characters "Haizhou Laojiu".

The sound of firecrackers crackling could be heard outside the house.

The flickering light and shadow outside the window were fireworks exploding.

……

A torrent of memories swept through Ye Xian's mind.

"Time travel?"

After a long while, Ye Xian finally understood his situation.

After graduating from university, he worked as a live-streaming operations master for ten years. Because the editor took leave, he worked continuously for 36 hours straight, and then died suddenly at his work table. He was transported to Earth and ended up in the body of someone else named Ye Xian.

Ye Xian smacked his lips, wanting to say something, but the words stuck in his throat.

He couldn't utter a single word.

He worked hard for ten years in another world, and just managed to save enough for a down payment on his house, only to die suddenly. The only woman he ever held hands with was his own mother, not to mention that she passed away before he even had a chance to show her his filial piety.

No wonder lying flat has become so popular in society now.

Lying down feels good for a moment, and it feels even better if you keep lying down!

Perhaps we have never truly lived.

……

Compared to Ye Xian's sudden death, Ye Xian of Blue Star in this world is even more heartbreaking.

suicide!

Lan Xingye Xian was born into a happy family.

My father ran a small shop in the storefront at the entrance of our yard, selling daily necessities.

Ye Xian's mother was a music teacher at the local middle school. She nurtured Ye Xian's vocal music skills from a young age and successfully sent him to the Central South Conservatory of Music after he grew up.

Ye Xian has lived up to his mother's expectations since childhood. He is proficient in playing various musical instruments, and winning exams and awards is commonplace for him. His appearance and voice are also outstanding.

In his mother's plan, he would have entered the music industry and become a pianist or violinist, or, like her, a music teacher.

Ye Xian is a restless soul. He was admitted to the Central South Conservatory of Music, which is ranked among the top three in the country, but he spends his days in various clubs. He either learns to make short videos, joins a mountaineering team, or plays basketball every day, as if he wants to make the most of the youth he didn't enjoy in the first twenty years of his life.

Although he went a bit astray in college, Ye Xian would probably have continued to be happy in the original trajectory of his life on Blue Star.

After all, Ye Xian is a craftsman.

They have the ability to make a living.

Until my sophomore year.

……

Mr. and Mrs. Ye were involved in a car accident while out and about and died on the spot.

Lan Xingye felt like the sky had fallen. He rushed home in a daze to deal with his parents' funeral arrangements. Only then did he learn that the driver who caused the accident was not only driving under the influence of alcohol, but also that the car insurance had just expired and had not been renewed. The driver was lying in the ICU and probably wouldn't survive much longer.

During his brief moments of lucidity in the ICU, the driver arranged for his family to deliver a message of apology to Ye Xian, the owner of Lanxing: "My family lost money in business, and my wife ran away with someone else. Take these liquors worth one million yuan that others gave me as payment for debts. Consider them a small token of my sympathy before I die. They can't repay the loss of your parents. I don't ask for your forgiveness, but I beg you to spare my children."

Looking at the eleven or twelve-year-old children of the driver who caused the accident kneeling in front of him, and the seventy or eighty-year-old old lady, and thinking that the other party was also on the verge of death, Lan Xing Ye Xian had been holding back his resentment, grievances, fear, confusion and sadness for several days. He hesitated for a long time, but still did not say it.

With tears in her eyes, she accepted reality with resignation.

……

"So... this is where these wines came from?"

Ye Xian flipped through his predecessor's memories, feeling that this experience was not enough to explain why his predecessor committed suicide. As he continued to flip through, Ye Xian began to lose his composure.

After acquiring this million-dollar liquor, Lan Xingye Xian lacked a good sales channel. Relying on his family's small shop, he didn't know when it would be ready to sell it. After all, "Haizhou Laojiu" was not a well-known brand; it was just a local liquor from Haizhou, produced by an unknown small factory.

I don't know what the driver who caused the accident was thinking, but this was someone else's way of settling a debt with him, and he probably accepted it with tears in his eyes, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to get his money back.

Lan Xingye initially planned to sell on e-commerce platforms like JD.com, but the barriers to entry for these platforms are getting higher and higher, so he eventually had to choose Kuaiyin, which has lower barriers to entry.

At university, Ye Xian learned short video shooting with a club for a while. He believed he could run a successful Kuaishou (a Chinese short video platform) shop and thought he could sell alcohol by making short videos. This was one of the reasons why he accepted the other party's compensation of alcohol.

Lanxing Yexian obtained a business license, a food circulation permit, authorization qualifications, opened a Kuaiyin store, obtained blue V certification, paid a 2 yuan deposit for the alcohol category, successfully applied for a white list for the alcohol category, and equipped himself with the latest Juzi mobile phone/live broadcast stand/gimbal/high-end computer... After that, he officially started short video e-commerce on the Kuaiyin platform.

As a result, relying solely on short videos to promote Ofo (a bike-sharing service) resulted in dismal performance.

Only 3 orders were sold in 3 months, and all of them were returned.

I spent several thousand yuan on Kuaishou+, which brought me more traffic but not many sales.

Left with no other choice, Ye Xian took the advice of his friends in the club and spent 5 yuan to hire a media company to do live-streaming e-commerce.

Sales amounted to 119 yuan in 1 months.

Two bottles of wine.

Ye Xian suspected that the media company had placed a fake order for the bottle of wine, but he also felt that it seemed a bit too fake that the other party had only placed one order.

Later, through the introduction of a teacher at the academy, Ye Xian found a famous celebrity and paid a 20 yuan fee for a spot.

Sales amounted to 238 yuan in 3 months.

Two bottles of wine.

……

Having spent hundreds of thousands of yuan, yet failing to generate even 500 yuan in sales, Lan Xing Ye Xian suffered a complete financial loss. The service agreement he signed contained numerous loopholes, making it difficult to obtain compensation. Unable to accept this outcome, Lan Xing Ye Xian fell into depression.

Ye Xian was a sophomore in college when his parents had their accident.

After handling the funeral arrangements, Ye Xian became obsessed and devoted all his time to the Kuaiyin (TikTok) shop. After seven or eight months, he hadn't sold many bottles of alcohol, and the school issued a notice of expulsion.

Too many absences lead to even more failing grades.

This notice became the final straw.

Looking at the entire room full of liquor inventory, Lan Xingye Xian thought about the past six months of aimless and unproductive life, remembered his mother's high hopes for him, and his father's earnest teachings, and broke down once again.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, the eve of the Lunar New Year, many families have already started setting off firecrackers a day in advance to welcome the Spring Festival. Amidst the joyful sounds of firecrackers celebrating family reunions, the atmosphere is vibrant and festive.

Lan Xingye Xian committed suicide.

……

"Sigh, yet another college student brainwashed by the media..."

After receiving all of Blue Star Ye Xian's memories, Ye Xian fell silent.

There's nothing I can do, things are just too complicated right now.

A certain magazine in another world was recruiting 6 people this year, but 6000 people applied. Undergraduates had no chance of getting the job. Meanwhile, the media was also promoting the idea that people could earn more than 9000 yuan a day by selling goods at night markets with their bare hands, and that some college students had earned millions by live streaming.

People often crowd into the live streams of top streamers, watching them easily sell hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars with a simple "321, click the link, buy it, buy it!" Then they see those streamers flaunting their wealth, driving luxury cars and living in mansions without having to go to school, which makes many young people eager to do the same.

It seems that going to school is no longer the only option.

Undeniably, while employment is difficult, live streaming provides young people with opportunities to showcase themselves, thus changing the times. The decentralized wave of internet celebrities provides young people with an upward path besides studying, going to university, and working. More and more young people are abandoning traditional industries and rushing into the live streaming industry.

However, this industry is no longer a blue ocean.

It took only 5 years to go from the first year of live streaming to approximately 1 million active accounts nationwide that have ever broadcast.

In this alternate world of Hangzhou, one in 244 people is a live streamer, and one in 12 people is involved in the live streaming industry—and this is a conservative estimate.

There are just too many people who want to be live streamers!

The live streaming industry has a very low barrier to entry, but it's extremely difficult to succeed in it.

Lan Xing Ye Xian was undoubtedly one of those who rushed into this great era with dreams in his heart, but ended up getting hurt badly.

Students are the most imaginative group, but also the group with the least social experience, and the group that lacks social discipline.

Opening a store blindly without having the necessary technical expertise.

Unplanned deployment quickly leads to failure.

They are too proud to appear on camera.

Unscrupulous media companies engaging in fraudulent sales promotions.

Celebrity-driven sales without monetization conversion capabilities.

Sales service contracts riddled with loopholes.

……

Ye Xian from Blue Star has stepped into every major pitfall in these industries.

Fortunately, I didn't fall into the biggest trap—signing with an unscrupulous MCN.

If Ye Xian from Blue Star signed with those unscrupulous media companies, then Ye Xian from another world would probably have no choice but to commit suicide and try to travel back in time.

……

The rising sun slowly dispelled the chill in the house.

Ye Xian sat in front of a pile of liquor worth millions of yuan for a whole night before he could compose himself and accept the fact that he had transmigrated.

The ensuing pain, however, came from the mess left by Ye Xian of Blue Star.

Bank card balance: 1800 yuan.

Haizhou aged liquor inventory: 8397 bottles.

"Thankfully, I still have 1800 yuan left, otherwise I don't know how I would survive! Today is Lunar New Year's Eve!"

Ye Xian smiled wryly. His parents' inheritance from Blue Star now amounted to nothing more than a large courtyard house and a small shop that had been closed for a long time: "Sigh, with a house, a car, and hundreds of thousands in cash, what couldn't they do? Why did they have to do live-streaming e-commerce? Wouldn't it be better to just relax?"

It's time to call upon your own cheat code!

"system?"

"uncle?"

"dad?"

"It's your turn to step in!"

"Stop playing hide-and-seek, I can see you!"

……

Ye Xian was quite clear about the standard requirements for every transmigrator; it was written in the novel that a transmigration without a system was incomplete!

however.

An hour has passed.

Ye Xian waited in vain.

"This system seems a bit shy!"

Ye Xian's heart sank.

……

For a time traveler, there are generally two things that are most important.

The first thing is that I can't rely on any special abilities.

Another thing.

"Could someone please have some compassion and help me erase that 1TB hard drive so I can say goodbye to my teachers?"

"Physical rituals for the deceased are also acceptable!"

"This is urgent, I need help online!"

……

Ps1: Today's Recap

Haizhou aged liquor inventory: 8397 bottles.

PS2:

After half a year, I'm back!

I'm a fresh newbie, please be kind to me!

The style of this book may differ somewhat from the previous one; it's not entirely about song recommendations, and the styles of the songs will also change. It's more like a technical operation manual, containing many techniques that training instructors typically charge 88,000 yuan to teach. Here, you don't need to pay 88,000 yuan; a small subscription is enough to enjoy VIP-level treatment like a CEO's class.

Haizhou Laojiu is a completely fabricated wine. All content in this book is purely fictional. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental. Do not take it personally.

New readers experiencing a reading slump can grab my previous excellent book, "My Agency Went Bankrupt Before I Even Got On Stage," to quench their thirst. My updates are well-regarded, so don't rush.

My new books, "After My Divorce, I Was Coveted by the Queen of Bad Movies," "I Was Rebellious to the End, But I Became a Top Star," and "Fairy, Please Step Aside, I've Got My Eye on Your Man," have all been uploaded. Please add them to your favorites and read them!
