The promotional campaign had only been going on for an hour when Chu Yinan's mobile browser started receiving push notifications.
The people at Fengshui Publishing House are quite interesting. I wonder if they were afraid of upsetting this rising female author, because their promotional materials maintained the style of her tweets, only saying that a new work was about to be released, but not mentioning the release date or title at all.
He couldn't help but marvel at the power of money: "Yu Tang, do you want to respond to the book title or something? A lot of people are asking about it."
"Don't worry about it, this is enough." This was Bei Yutang's small protest; she still wanted to see how the normal promotion went and to what extent her work could be promoted.
Nowadays, publishers advocate focusing on sales in the first month, but she has money and isn't in a hurry. She can take a long-term view and see how many people will appreciate her writing a year from now.
"Oh dear! How could they treat their own book like this? It contains my hard work; I risked my life to gather material from the female demon!"
"Did he sneak off in the middle of the night to find a pretty auntie and try to get her to recognize him?" Bei Yutang now doubted the authenticity of Chu Yinan's claim that he was sleepwalking.
She even got up in the middle of the night to check if the dilapidated hot spring house next door had really become brightly lit.
"No way, I went out because I couldn't sleep! Besides, I didn't know if the female monster was pretty or not, I couldn't tell."
It's a pity I didn't grow bigger back then, otherwise my physical condition after growing bigger would have made me immune to the face blindness debuff.
Chu Yinan curiously scrolled through the comments on Yu Tang's tweet. In just one hour, Yu Tang had gained 50,000 followers, and the number of comments had reached 50%.
After all, this software isn't the Weibo app; it doesn't have the ability to attract ghost followers and periodically increase the number of new followers for the deceased's account.
Most of these comments are asking if it's really "Snow" herself, what the book is called, and when it will be released.
Moreover, there's another strange point: it seems that Yu Tang's willful "self-promotion" has actually increased her mystique and further fueled the discussion among fans of her older works.
However, the business world is still a complex and unpredictable place. In just over an hour, someone has already written a lengthy critique. I wonder if it's the remnants of those demonic idol fans from last time, trying to resurrect their idol's spirit in the underworld and make their presence felt.
Bei Yutang also peeked over and saw the negative comments, but she didn't take them to heart. Instead, she used the opportunity to scold her younger brother, putting on a serious face:
"See? Because of your impulsive advice back then, now people are badmouthing your sister! How are you going to compensate me?"
"There haven't even been any actual losses yet, and you're already asking for compensation. Are you trying to take advantage of the situation like Aunt Liu did, to make me sleep with you or take a bath with you?"
The older sister, who had just had a dark expression, suddenly became more easygoing. She nodded and said, "Okay, let's leave it at that. It's barely acceptable!"
"I haven't even applied yet, and you've already accepted it. That doesn't count!" Chu Yinan sat on her sister's black-stockinged legs, suddenly puzzled. "That's strange. Why hasn't the backer I found for you made any moves?"
"What kind of backing?" Bei Yutang heard something strange from her younger brother. "Tell me the truth."
In Yan Liu's office, the older sister laid her younger brother down on the sofa and pressed down on Chu Yinan.
Chu Yinan was suffocating, but stubbornly insisting on maintaining a bit of mystery, he refused to give in and continued to endure Yu Tang's facial cleanser treatment.
The girl rubbed for a while, and then the editor called.
As soon as Bei Yutang answered the phone, the editor's excited voice immediately came through the receiver. She was so surprised that she almost cried out, "Ms. Xue, how did you manage to get AI to help you promote your books! Now even people who aren't very interested in books are being attracted!"
"Huh?" Bei Yutang asked, puzzled and completely confused. "What are you talking about?"
Didn't you check the platform?
Chu Yinan, still suppressed under "Sister Mountain," took out his phone and clicked on the shocking news from the editor. Bei Yutang immediately understood what had happened.
AIs also have social media accounts, and the groups that follow them are global. Each AI's posts have their own unique style.
Fuxi's messages tend to be more relaxed, while Qilin's messages tend to be more about releasing technology. Often, they will announce that Turing Tower has mastered XXX technology (although in reality, this technology may have been mastered several years ago, but it is still considered cutting-edge technology by the outside world).
This time, Qilin took the initiative to retweet Bei Yutang's tweet, and added a statement that was very much like her coldness and very unlike her: "One thousand discount codes will be drawn from the physical books sold on the day of release, based on the book number."
AI has an online store that occasionally sells limited-edition electronic products made by AI. Basically, every batch is snapped up and then resold at auctions. The "preferred purchase code" allows you to have priority in purchasing these products.
AI e-commerce platforms typically only sell 1,000 units of each new product launch. The 1,000 pre-order codes that Qilin mentioned are essentially saying that if you want to snag a batch of new products, you should buy physical books.
The scale of this publicity is quite outrageous. Military forces outside the artificial island system are all eyeing the AI technology contained in those products.
"Holy crap, this social media platform's server is crashing from all the posts?" Chu Yinan is now realizing that using AI to promote his sister is really a bit like using a public account for private purposes.
The main reason was that Chu Yinan thought it was just a normal thing, something that would only keep the hype going for a few more days. But it ended up crashing the social media platform's servers.
"You've taken it upon yourself to do it again?" Bei Yutang said irritably, gently flipping Chu Yinan's nose to make it look like a pig's nose.
Although the way the promotion for her new work turned out was truly beyond her control, Bei Yutang was still very happy because it was Chu Yinan who did it for her.
"I don't care, I love everything Yu Tang writes, how can she be second best! No amount of slander can change that! I think Yu Tang, you should really thank me for helping you smooth things over!"
"You're practically forcing me to buy something! How am I supposed to thank you?" The girl smiled.
"You just ran me over, so I'm going to run you over back. You're not allowed to resist, and you're not allowed to retaliate afterwards!"
Chapter 114 Accidentally Run Over
Speaking of Nian Yutang, Chu Yinan had considered suddenly growing bigger to scare her and using his size advantage to retaliate.
As for the fact that his body could grow larger, Chu Yinan felt that even if he said it, there shouldn't be any major problems, since he could always change back to his original size.
Chu Yinan was heartbroken after his female father and Delia teased him about his grown-up appearance a few times, and he no longer wanted to expose his handsome side.
So now he can only use his smaller body to fight back and crush him. Considering that when Yu Tang usually crushes him, she mainly relies on a "smothering" attack, using the full force of her ample body to make him very uncomfortable.
This time, he climbed up directly from under Yu Tang, flipped over and shifted positions to gain the advantage of the higher ground, then hugged Yu Tang's head tightly, trying to suffocate her like she usually did when she crushed him under her.
Because of the height difference, when Chu Yinan held Yu Tang's head, his lower body was almost at Yu Tang's pectoral muscles. Luckily, Yu Tang didn't notice this, otherwise it would have been quite embarrassing.
Plans are often wonderful in the imagination stage, but their execution in reality is often unsatisfactory.
Well, after actually holding Yu Tang's head, Chu Yinan found that he couldn't suffocate her at all... Usually, Yu Tang would suffocate his head in a relatively enclosed, soft special environment, which, to put it bluntly, meant clamping his head between her legs.
However, Chu Yinan did not possess the two clumps of fat and connective tissue used as tools, so the plan to crush his sister could not be implemented.
"That's it?" Bei Yutang started to mock. "Do you remember when I took you swimming before? You couldn't swim back then. I took you to the deep end, and you clung to my face like a koala. The deeper I went, the tighter you clung to me. Doesn't this look like that now?"
"No way!" Chu Yinan denied it outright, determined not to lose face. "Besides, what do you mean by koala? I'm a facehugger, aren't you scared!"
Facehuggers are alien creatures in some science fiction horror works; they are very imposing, but also disgusting.
The parasitic method is just like its name suggests: it attaches itself directly to the host's face and inserts something indescribable from the host's mouth into the esophagus and throat.
It's a common sight among oddly shaped notebooks.
Chu Yinan felt disgusted by the comparison to himself, but in this moment of vying for status and prestige, he couldn't let Yu Tang use a koala to undermine his prestige, could he?
"Ugh! How disgusting!"
Yu Tang scolded her younger brother, but then suddenly remembered the concept of the facehugger, a mythical creature, and took the opportunity to tease Chu Yinan.
"But you don't look like a facehugger to me. Facehuggers can implant themselves in the throat when they hug someone's face, but I don't see that on you."
Chu Yinan couldn't help but start imagining things. If he were to completely cosplay the facehugger's movements, wouldn't that be...?
This association caused the sealed artifact, which Chu Yinan had been suppressing well, to lose control.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Chu Yinan bent over and sternly criticized Yu Tang's inappropriate behavior.
"Hey, who said they were a facehugger first? I said you were a koala, and you insisted you were a facehugger. Isn't that an implication?"
"What hint? That was my momentum! You're the one who said it in a strange way!" Chu Yinan argued, but Yu Tang slapped his butt, and his waist went limp, causing him to fall solidly onto Yu Tang's body.
When the girl saw that Chu Yinan was done playing and was about to run away, she gently rolled over and crushed him back under her. Given how obvious Chu Yinan's reaction was, Bei Yutang had already noticed his exposed legs.
"What's wrong with you? Your mind is wandering and you're starting to get restless, so you're thinking of running away? Weren't you so cocky just now, saying you were going to run me over? Why are you thinking of running away now?"
Chu Yinan grabbed the edge of the sofa and tried to climb out, but Yu Tang's weight was too much for him. Putting aside the fact that she had more breasts than most girls her age, her own frame was heavy enough to overwhelm Chu Yinan.
After finally managing to crawl out a little, Chu Yinan was immediately greeted by Yu Tang's warm breath in his ear. In the instant his limbs went weak, Yu Tang pulled him back down and suppressed him.
But it's too early to admit defeat now. The gym workouts a few days ago didn't bring about any physical changes, and the effect on his smaller body was almost negligible. But Chu Yinan felt that his "strength up↑" was enough.
He covered his ears as a shield, continuing to try to break free from Yu Tang's clutches.
The final result was that the collisions and friction during this struggle caused an uncontrollable and unpleasant reaction.
Just then, Yan Liu returned to her office and saw her two children playing on the sofa. Amused, she walked over to watch.
"What kind of game are you playing? Little Chunan is being ridden like a pony by Yu Tang? Won't that flatten Little Chunan's body?"
"It's that old bastard Yu Tang who's trying to bully me!" Chu Yinan tried to seek outside help.
However, this outside help is a bit dangerous. If Chu Yinan asks Aunt Liu for help, he can guarantee with 70% certainty that he will most likely just jump from his sister's tiger's mouth to Aunt Liu's tiger's mouth.
Who knows, the next second he might be being run over on the sofa next door, only this time it'll be someone else.
Besides... it's not convenient to get up right now!
If Aunt Liu finds out that he and Yu Tang were being all lovey-dovey, that wouldn't be good.
Bei Yutang noticed her younger brother's worry and deliberately adopted an indifferent attitude, saying:
"Who was it that first claimed to have done me a huge favor, and then tried to retaliate by crushing me? Come on, I'm not playing with you anymore, let's go to Aunt Liu's place."
Yan Liu is just going back to her office to rest for a bit, but if the little brat wants to cuddle and play with her, she doesn't mind putting her work aside for now.
The voluptuous and beautiful young woman stretched out her hand to Chu Yinan, "Yu Tang isn't playing with you anymore, so Aunt Liu will keep you company, do you want to come over~?"
Chu Yinan was caught in a dilemma by Yu Tang, so he had no choice but to temporarily refuse Aunt Liu's help. "No, Yu Tang is too petty. I'm afraid she'll sulk later. I'll indulge her for now!"
Chu Yinan had personally experienced how ruthless Yu Tang was many times; she was several times more ruthless than the black stockings on Yu Tang's plump thighs!
He was worried that Yu Tang might suddenly retaliate, pick him up, and expose the embarrassing situation to Aunt Liu.
So he turned around and hugged her tightly, pressing his face against her body in places he shouldn't have, not giving her a chance.
"Mom, go to work, I'm busy." Yu Tang urged her mother to leave.
Yan Liu was displeased and tapped Yu Tang's delicate nose with her jade finger: "What are you busy with? Busy tormenting Xiao Chunan? You're afraid Yu Tang will get angry, but aren't you afraid Aunt Liu will get angry?"
"Afraid! Everyone's afraid!"
Chapter 115 I still have an aunt?
As night fell, the thing Chu Yinan least wanted to face happened!
During the day, Yu Tang ran over me for ages in the office, and when I got home at night, it was Aunt Liu's turn to run over me!
On the chaise lounge, Chu Yinan lay on it in despair, with a mature and beautiful young woman on his back.
Having just finished bathing, Aunt Liu was like a lotus emerging from the water. Whatever she said about her bare face after bathing was secondary. Judging from Chu Yinan's real-time experience of being crushed, Aunt Liu was soft and plump. Even though he was being pressed down, it was as if he was willingly sinking into Aunt Liu's warm and soft embrace.
The phrase "plump like Yang Guifei and slender like Zhao Feiyan" was originally used to describe the beauty of women of all shapes and sizes, but judging from the example of the south of Chu, it is perfectly suited to Aunt Liu. Her fullness is just right, while her waist is still graceful and slender. Although she is not as slender as Yang Guifei, she has her own unique charm.
"Aunt Liu, it's twenty minutes already! I'm about to be crushed!" Chu Yinan touched Aunt Liu's fair and smooth arm, feeling its cool, smooth texture, which was incredibly pleasant.
