It’s hard to believe that this is the data from the first official day online for the app Jiang Xu didn’t spend a dime on advertising for.
To prevent Kua Yin from becoming an entity everybody dreaded, Jiang Xu had this data sealed.
Other than him, no other engineers had access to view it.
Then, Jiang Xu checked out the coverage from various major media outlets outside.
Without exception, they were all about 5G.
The comments under many articles were very funny:
“Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could they have the capability to develop 5G?!”
“The news is fake!”
“Only the great ‘Ugly Dull Fragile’ could develop a groundbreaking product like 5G!”
“This Ju Factory definitely stole our ‘Ugly Dull Fragile’s technology!”
——————
Even Jiang Xu couldn’t help himself upon seeing this.
He immediately registered an account and replied underneath that comment:
[Not to be rude, but are you sure your brain is okay]
[Saying Ju Factory stole ‘Ugly Dull Fragile’s technology?]
[It’s laughable; you haven’t even managed to create 5G technology, what would we steal]
[Steal future technology?]
Jiang Xu’s comment received many likes.
Then—
he received a message from the system.
Saying his comment violated platform rules and was deleted.
“Ha—”
Jiang Xu let out a cold laugh.
He nearly forgot.
On these foreign mainstream media platforms, you can’t say a single good word about your own country.
Even if you do, it would be quickly deleted, or even result in a ban.
Jiang Xu increasingly realized the significance and strategic meaning of ‘Substitute Kernel Transparent’ becoming popular abroad in his previous life.
It’s a must to have control over your own voice.
Otherwise, others can smear you rampantly, and you won’t even have a place to speak up.

Jiang Xiaoyan sent the address and room number of the restaurant.
Ever since everyone returned from Peach Blossom Village, they had planned to celebrate.
However, it was postponed because Zhou Qingyue’s leg hadn’t healed.
Now that Zhou Qingyue was fully recovered, Jiang Xiaoyan gathered everyone again.
And the first season of “Pastoral Life” had already finished airing.
The results had been very impressive.
Today, An Nuonuo went shopping with Bai Xiaoya and Chu Youwei and they have already gone ahead.
When Jiang Xu arrived, everyone was there.
All those who participated in the reality show were invited.
Including the director and other staff members.
When Jiang Xu walked into the private room, he saw everyone was heads down playing with their phones.
He stepped closer to take a look.
Good grief, they were all scrolling through Kua Yin.
The guys scrolling through girls, and the girls scrolling through guys.
Luckily, An Nuonuo wasn’t there.
She was scrolling through some video edits.
When Jiang Xu made a noise, everyone finally realized he had arrived.
They all greeted him.
An Nuonuo pulled out a chair next to her, inviting him to sit down.
Her face was full of excitement and joy, “Brother Xu, Kua Yin is so fun, everyone is really into it.”
“Exactly.” Tian’er chimed in: “It’s full of hot guys, I absolutely love it.”
After greeting Jiang Xiaoyan and Zhou Qingyue, they went back to scrolling through videos.
For them, Kua Yin was now the new favorite.
Even Chu Youwei, who usually didn’t play much with her phone, was now bowing her head, incessantly swiping through.
Jiang Xu found it amusing.
This was just the beginning.
As the content of this short video became richer, it would become even more addictive.
Jiang Xu had introduced short videos so many years ahead, and for the people of this era, it was undoubtedly a heavy bomb.
“Since everyone is curious…” Jiang Xiaoyan reluctantly put away her phone.
She stood up and said, “Before the banquet starts, I’d like to say a few words.”
Jiang Xu whispered with a chuckle, “Don’t say, she really does look quite imposing now.”
Jiang Xiaoyan heard him and glared fiercely at Jiang Xu.
She continued, “‘Pastoral Life’ has achieved unprecedented success.”
“Let me just mention a few key figures.”
“The total viewership of the first season exceeded one billion.”
“The post-tax income from advertisements was five hundred million.”
“Including the membership fees from the platform, the total post-tax revenue was six hundred and thirty million!”
As her words fell, the room burst into astonishment.
A low-budget variety show could earn such high profits and achievements; it was simply terrifying.
This variety show was led by Jiang Xiaoyan and Zhou Qingyue.
It was Jiang Xiaoyan’s first cross-over attempt, and it had been a huge success.
The room broke into warm applause.
Immediately afterward, Jiang Xiaoyan took out bundles of cash and placed them on the table.
“All staff, line up and take a bundle each.”
A bundle was one hundred thousand yuan.
With money to be had, everyone was very excited.
After the staff had taken their money, Jiang Xiaoyan then took out a stack of checks.
The first check was handed to Bai Xiaoya, “Here, this is for you.”
Bai Xiaoya took it and looked surprised, “Eight million, so much?”
Jiang Xiaoyan waved her hand, “Not much, you deserve it.”
Bai Xiaoya felt she shouldn’t take that much.
After all, she had only participated in one episode.
Initially, including An Nuonuo, none had discussed money for participating in this variety show, nor had they been paid.
It was all just about helping a friend.
Seeing Bai Xiaoya returning the check, Jiang Xiaoyan’s eyes widened, “Keep it, or else I’ll drag you to the bathroom and ‘hehehe’ you later.”
Bai Xiaoya: “…”
Such a domineering thing to say.
She silently kept the check.
Then she handed another eight-million check to Chu Youwei.
When it came to An Nuonuo, it was fifty million.
“Sister Xiao Yan, this is too much,” An Nuonuo refused to accept it.
Jiang Xiaoyan: “If you don’t take it, then you’re serving in my bedchamber tonight.”
An Nuonuo: “Okay.”
Jiang Xiaoyan: “???”
Jiang Xu: “???”
An Nuonuo gave a shy smile, “Even if I were to serve in the bedchamber, I couldn’t accept so much.”
Although the variety show had earned over six hundred million,
she still felt taking fifty million was too much for just over a month’s work,
It had been quite easy as well.
“Just take it,” Zhou Qingyue said, “You’re responsible for at least thirty percent of why this show became such a hit.”
“Besides, there are still substantial earnings to follow from the TV rights of this show, so we are still making a lot.”
“Exactly,” Jiang Xiaoyan said, “I’m not a stingy person; we all earn together.”
The remaining money, Jiang Xiaoyan and Zhou Qingyue split in half, each getting a bit over two hundred million.
In this entertainment-focused era, money was just too easy to make.
Immediately after, everyone began to eat and drink.
With drinks flowing, some even went on stage to perform.
At that moment, Liu Ruyan approached Jiang Xu.
