Chapter 70 - Chapter 70: E-commerce Goes Live!

If several production crews came to Wang Yi, asking Meiyou to custom-make clothing.

Many celebrities in movies and idol dramas would wear Meiyou dresses, and the Meiyou brand would be completely established!

Would selling still be a problem then?

Would they still be afraid of being copied?

More importantly, with production crews coming, wouldn't other actresses be tempted?

Many actresses attending various events, if their status wasn't high enough, didn't have custom-made luxury brand clothing, and could only wear ordinary evening gowns.

At that time, unwilling to be outshone, wouldn't they also come to Wang Yi, to Meiyou, to customize a high-value pure desire style dress?

To compete for beauty and attention, they would stop at nothing!

And in later generations, many actresses loved the pure desire style, establishing a pure desire persona; this was a recipe for virality!

Wang Yi suddenly realized that the entertainment industry was Meiyou's best promotion ground!

Instead of spending tens of millions on advertising to promote Meiyou, it would be better to find a way to promote it in the entertainment industry first!

As long as Meiyou made a name for itself in the entertainment industry, letting actresses wear Meiyou's pure desire style dresses, it could gain renown nationwide!

In this era, the public wasn't as clear-headed as in later generations; many were still in an era of blind celebrity worship.

If celebrities liked the pure desire style, they would follow suit and promote it!

If celebrities wore Meiyou dresses, they would follow suit and buy Meiyou dresses!

It could be said that whoever gained the entertainment industry gained the world!

Providing clothing for the "33 Days of Falling Out of Love" crew was precisely Meiyou's breakthrough into the entertainment industry!

Clarifying his thoughts, Wang Yi said with a smile,

"It's nothing. You're An Qing's friend, which means you're my, Wang Yi's, friend. If a friend needs something, I can go above and beyond for them!"

An Ke was amused,

"Haha, then I'll trouble you. When you come to Didu, I'll treat you to a meal! And the movie premiere is in Didu, I invite you as a VIP guest, so be sure to make time!"

"No problem, after school starts, I'll be going to university in Didu!"

"What? You're still a student, just graduated from high school?"

An Ke was shocked.

A student founding a clothing brand? Making such excellent clothing?

Even starting a new trend?

Are you kidding me!

"Yes, I just finished the college entrance exam and will report to Beihang in September."

"Beihang? A top student! Little brother is really amazing!"

An Ke was even more surprised.

It's rare for someone to be excellent in one field.

But Wang Yi seemed to be excellent in many fields, truly incredible!

"You flatter me. Just send me the required sizes and address later, and I'll arrange for someone to mail them."

"Okay, you've helped me a great deal!" An Ke was immensely grateful:

"Later, I'll ask the director to embed some advertisements for Meiyou, and add 'Thanks to Meiyou Technology for friendly sponsorship of costumes, makeup, and props' at the end of the credits!"

"Haha, then thank you very much!"

Wang Yi beamed, thinking to himself:

"These dresses were so worth giving away!"

"An Qing is truly a queen of virality; she's brought me another wave of huge traffic!"

"Should I enshrine her later?"

On the other side, An Ke was also full of enthusiasm and excitement:

"An Qing introduced me to a true marvel!"

"Wait, Meiyou, Meiyou... why does that sound a bit familiar!"

"The app that the makeup artist Xiao Lan mentioned? It can record menstrual cycles, and there are many interesting things on it, that Meiyou app where people gossip every day?"

An Ke suddenly remembered.

She hadn't paid attention at the time, but now she took out her phone and downloaded it.

After trying it out:

"This app is really good. The functions for recording and predicting menstrual cycles and ovulation are very practical, a must-have for women!"

"The social square is very lively, sisters help each other, complain and share, it's also very interesting."

"If it also launched e-commerce, focusing on the pure desire style, monetizing traffic... this Meiyou has unlimited potential!"

An Ke instantly saw the key, and was even more shocked:

"The key is that the founder just graduated from high school, is eighteen years old, and is a top student at Beihang. His future achievements are truly limitless!"

"Oh my god, where did An Qing meet such a genius? Could he be her little lover?"

"Probably not, Wang Yi is so excellent, An Qing seems a bit unworthy!"

Having seen much of the world in Didu, An Ke clearly understood how limitless Wang Yi's future was!

As for Xiao An Qing, having entered the system, she would most likely be a reporter for the rest of her life.

As for becoming a famous reporter in the industry, that was not very realistic.

Soon, Wang Yi received the size information and address sent by An Ke, and immediately had Song Sining contact the warehouse to prepare and ship the goods!

Currently, there were thirty-five styles of pure desire style dresses, and Wang Yi directly sent one hundred and five sets.

One set of each style, S, M, and L sizes!

What if there were too many and they couldn't use them all?

That was fine too; whichever celebrity liked them in the end could take them.

Their casual sharing of a picture or a Weibo post would be promotion for Meiyou and would bring traffic.

Besides, the total selling price was only thirty to forty thousand, and the cost was only two to three thousand!

What about accidents?

Styles being exposed?

No need to worry about that.

By the time the express delivery arrived, Meiyou would already be online, and all products would have already been fully revealed!

Thirty-five styles across five major e-commerce platforms, all available for immediate sale!

And the low price of 159 for Qingyou locked in the profit margin, making it unprofitable for other competitors to follow suit!

"Early next month, there will be a front-page headline in the Jizhou Evening News, and then the promotion for '33 Days of Falling Out of Love'. This time, it will be hard for Meiyou's Pure Desire Style not to become popular! There's really no worry about selling anymore!"

Wang Yi had originally planned for the thirty-five Pure Desire Style dresses to sell an average of 1000-2000 pieces per style.

Selling thirty to fifty thousand pieces across five major e-commerce platforms within two or three months would be quite good.

But with these two major sources of traffic, thirty to fifty thousand pieces wouldn't be nearly enough.

After all, the current Pure Desire Style was a blank market with the greatest demand!

Coupled with the traffic brought by the massive popularity of "33 Days of Falling Out of Love," they could prepare a lot more stock.

Considering this, Wang Yi had Chen Chuanqing increase the stock quantity for thirty-two slightly modified styles from 1000 pieces per style to 2000 pieces!

And he paid another deposit of three hundred thousand!

Adding the final payment of three hundred thousand for the first batch, Wang Yi's funds were now only three hundred thousand, just enough for this final payment.

However, that afternoon, Wang Yi received a bank SMS: the office building mortgage loan had been approved.

A full three million!

That was enough to hire a top-tier endorser for Meiyou, for several years even.

In those days, celebrity endorsement fees were not as astronomical as in later generations.

Even Liu Tianxian could be negotiated down to three million for two, or even three years!

Her temperament was very suitable for the Pure Desire Style; if she endorsed Meiyou, it should be good.

However, Wang Yi didn't plan to spend his own money anymore.

He would wait until Meiyou made a profit before discussing this matter.

These three million would be kept for emergencies, in case something unexpected happened!

In the following days, everyone at Meiyou Technology worked overtime collectively, completing all e-commerce preparations and conducting a series of tests!

On the morning of July 29th, Wang Yi gave the command, and the content department sprang into action!

Soon, a post quickly topped the hot search list on the social square:

"Sisters, summer is almost over, and I still can't find a single nice dress to buy!"

This post immediately resonated with many people, who replied one after another, complaining about the ugliness of current dresses.

Many other users also followed suit, posting complaints!

That day, the entire social square was filled with complaints about current dresses being ugly, unfashionable, lacking highlights, and showing no improvement!

Girls had suffered from ugly dresses for too long!

On July 30th, two more posts appeared:

"Hope some pretty little dresses appear this year, so I can shine all summer long!"

"If there were such pretty little dresses, I'd be willing to pay more, sis!"

These two sentiments also resonated with a large number of users.

Under Wang Yi's manipulation, these three major posts quickly climbed to the top of the square's hot search list!

For a time, most of Meiyou's three hundred thousand users realized the ugliness and unfashionable nature of current dresses.

They all looked forward to nice dresses appearing on the market, willing to buy them even if they cost a few hundred more!

But everyone felt it was too difficult; trends don't happen overnight.

So, some desperate posts appeared...

Wang Yi was pleased to see this; this wave of public opinion was solid!

With the final groundwork of public opinion in place, Meiyou's Pure Desire Style could officially launch!

Meiyou 3.0 version updated, e-commerce officially set sail!
