From humble beginnings to the pinnacle of life

Chapter 112 The brave eat meat first

Su Qing immediately retorted, "How can this be called getting something for nothing?"

I analyzed it carefully: "Registering a company, setting up a live streaming room, sourcing products, and managing daily operations all cost money. Without a minimum of a few hundred thousand yuan, it's impossible to survive, let alone compete head-on with Fang Heng's Xingyao Media."

Su Qing fell silent for a moment, then looked up and said, "How about... I pawn the bracelet I had before to raise some more money?"

I quickly waved my hand in refusal: "You absolutely mustn't! You've already caused a lot of trouble because of the bracelet, isn't that enough already?"

Su Qing immediately chuckled and waved her hand, "Just kidding, I'm not that stupid."

As soon as she finished speaking, her eyes shifted, and she suddenly spoke mysteriously:

"However, I do have a solution that might solve our startup funding problem."

My interest was immediately piqued, and I quickly asked, "You have another idea? Tell me!"

"Don't underestimate me." Su Qing raised her chin.

"Stop keeping me in suspense, just tell me!" I couldn't help but urge.

"A friend of mine runs an off-road vehicle club, and last night I saw on my WeChat Moments that they were recruiting livestreamers to promote off-road vehicles, and the offers were incredibly high!"

I was taken aback, looking puzzled. "You mean, you want me to take on promotional work?"

"Of course not!"

Su Qing rolled her eyes at me and said clearly, "Now that we've signed Qiqi, we can definitely let her take on this promotional order. If we land this deal, our start-up capital will be secured, right?"

She paused for a moment, then said seriously, "Besides, off-road tracks are niche and eye-catching. If the video goes viral, Qiqi might become an overnight sensation!"

After hearing this, I couldn't help but chuckle self-deprecatingly and shake my head: "We have no resources right now, no fame. Qiqi only has a few hundred thousand followers; we're just a small-time streamer. Why would a professional club choose us? Besides, with your connections, are you even reliable to step in?"

"I definitely can't do it myself. My mom already told my friends that if I get involved, this project won't work."

"That's settled then, there's no point in saying anything anyway." I immediately deflated.

How do you know it won't work if you don't try?

Su Qing refused to give up and continued to persuade him: "I saw that their recruitment requirements do not restrict the number of fans. The only hard requirement is that someone on the team knows cars and can explain them."

I frowned: "But I know nothing about off-road vehicles."

"Have you forgotten Luo Peng?" Su Qing reminded her, "He used to be a professional car mechanic, wasn't he, one of the guys at our courier station?"

Those words instantly woke me up.

It must be said that this is indeed a viable breakthrough.

Although there's a high probability of setbacks, it's at least the only chance.

Seeing that I was wavering, Su Qing pressed her advantage: "Why not give it a try? We don't have any other options right now, so even if we fail, it won't be a big loss. What if we succeed?"

I hesitated for a moment, then gritted my teeth and nodded: "Okay, let's take a gamble and give it a try. But I don't know the other party, how will we connect?"

"I'll give you my WeChat ID, and you can add me on your own. But remember, whatever you do, don't say I introduced you!"

After saying that, she immediately took out her phone and sent me the other person's WeChat.

Without the slightest hesitation, I immediately sent a friend request.

To my surprise, the other party accepted the request instantly and then sent a message:

"Who are you?"

I quickly replied, "Hello, I saw on your WeChat Moments that your club is recruiting a live streamer to promote off-roading. Is there still an opening?"

The other party quickly replied: "Haven't found a suitable one yet. Which media company are you from?"

I froze for a moment, then turned to Su Qing: "He asked me for my company name. Our company isn't registered yet, what do we say?"

"Just tell the truth, say it's a high-quality individual team, it won't affect our cooperation."

After a moment's hesitation, I edited a message and replied: "We are a startup team of individuals."

The other party then followed up with, "Have you done any similar off-road promotions before?"

Now that things have come to this, we have no choice but to take a gamble.

Opportunities are always earned, not waited for.

I braced myself and replied directly: "Yes, we have experience. Our team has professional car-savvy technicians and experienced online influencers, so we are fully capable of handling the promotion work."

Just seconds after the message was sent, the other party sent a voice message, speaking in a friendly tone: "Okay, I don't have time today. Come to our club tomorrow morning and we can talk in person."

After listening to the voice message, Su Qing leaned closer and nodded excitedly, "It's settled! I'll agree for now, and we'll discuss the details later!"

I was completely led astray by her boldness and daring.

In the past, I always did things in a down-to-earth and rule-abiding manner, and I never dared to take risks or boast.

But Su Qing completely changed my perception.

She's right. This world is a huge makeshift operation, and only those who dare to take risks and fight hard can seize opportunities first.

I took a deep breath and replied with a voice message: "Okay, we'll be there on time tomorrow morning. Please send me the address."

The other party quickly sent the club's location.

After ending the chat, I looked at Su Qing, both amused and exasperated: "Wouldn't you say we were just talking nonsense, completely bluffing?"

"This isn't just a scam!"

Su Qing rolled her eyes at me and said with a serious face, "That's called seizing the opportunity! The brave get the first taste of success, while those who are timid and hesitant will only ever starve!"

After careful consideration, I realized that this is indeed the case.

If I don't even have the courage to try, I'll be constantly suppressed by Fang Heng for the rest of my life and will never be able to turn the tables.

I must say, Su Qing completely cured my hesitation and procrastination.

It also taught me that opportunities are never something you wait for; you have to seize them yourself.

Even if I'm being forced into this situation, I'll do my best to get this order done.

Just do it!

That afternoon, I immediately began cleaning the empty rooms on the first floor of the courtyard.

Move all the clutter inside to an empty corner of the yard to make room for a live broadcast.

Su Qing wasn't idle either. Showing no signs of being a spoiled young lady, she picked up a rag, squatted down, and began wiping away the stains in the corner of the wall bit by bit.

After working for a while, her little hands were covered in dust, but she didn't care at all.

The two worked until dark, and the originally messy empty room was completely transformed.

Su Qing looked around and immediately began to plan in an orderly manner:

"Place the fill light in this corner; the light will be the softest and least glaring."

"Hang the backdrop on this pure white wall, place the live-streaming table by the window, and let in plenty of natural light—that's the best way to get the best results on camera!"

As she gestured, she confidently stated, "If you trust me, don't change the layout; I'll buy the equipment!"

"What do you want to buy?" I asked curiously.

"Live streaming fill light, floor stand, high-definition backdrop, professional microphone—a complete set of essential equipment."

"I already read the review guides and know which ones are cost-effective and effective."

I was taken aback, and asked with some surprise, "When did you secretly watch the reviews?"

"I've been watching since you left today. Since we've decided to do it, we can't just do it half-heartedly. Either we don't do it at all, or we do it well."

At this moment, my understanding of Su Qing was refreshed once again.

She was never just a spoiled, pampered young lady who knew only how to act cute and play.

She was just too lazy to show off her skills before, but when she gets serious, her vision, execution, and planning abilities far surpass those of ordinary people.
