Editing the outfit transition video wasn't difficult. Before long, the finished product was ready.
This time, the before-and-after shots flowed seamlessly, and the video quality was even better.
"President Li, what do you think?" Chen Jincheng asked Li Ya.
"Mr. Chen, this video is really well-made." Li Ya was very surprised after watching it.
It was her first time seeing this kind of transition video, and she was captivated by its novelty. The moment of the transformation, seeing the girl's clothes instantly change into her company's pajamas, was so stunning it gave her chills.
"This is the first time I've ever shot such a good video," Lao Chen said, his face full of pride.
Chen Jincheng smiled. He knew the extent of Lao Chen's skills; the optimization from the Clothing Series Heat Card was clearly at play here.
He then turned to Yinyin, Lin Qing, and the other girls and said, "Everyone, come take a look at this video. Then, take turns changing into President Li's company's pajamas and shoot your own transition videos. After Xiaobai's video is posted, it's definitely going to blow up, and you all will get a ton of traffic from it."
Hearing this, Yinyin, Lin Qing, and the other girls all hurried over to watch Jiang Xiaobai's finished transition video. They were all stunned. You could tell just by looking at the quality that this video was going to be a hit.
So, they didn't hesitate and began changing into Jinghong Women's Clothing's nightgowns in groups.
Because the girls varied in height and assets, the resulting videos truly had a diverse, charming feel.
For example, Lin Qing was taller and more slender, so her legs were completely on display.
As for Yinyin, with her ample chest, the nightgown looked like it could barely contain her.
The only one suffering was Chen Jincheng, the sole male Actor in Second-Life Star. He had to cooperate with each girl, one after another, as they sat on his lap and acted cute.
The key thing was, some of these girls were getting a little too bold.
"Hubby, stop playing your game and look at me!" Yinyin said as she sat on Chen Jincheng's lap. She not only changed the line but also threw her arms tightly around his neck.
"..." Chen Jincheng.
...
The videos were shot one by one. Although none of them were as good as Jiang Xiaobai's, which was optimized by the Clothing Series Heat Card, putting together transition videos of some thirty-odd girls in sexy pajamas like this... once it became a trending topic, what guy clicking on it wouldn't feel like he was choosing from a harem?
And what woman, seeing all those men so captivated, wouldn't be tempted to buy one to use on her man at home?
The shoot with over thirty girls lasted until evening. Chen Jincheng had Sister Hong send Jiang Xiaobai's ad video to Tiao Yin.
Since the shopping cart feature wasn't live yet, a Tiao Yin technician had to manually embed it into the video for testing.
After the shoot, Li Ya was extremely satisfied with the video quality and the bonus service of Chen Jincheng having over thirty other girls model the Jinghong Women's Clothing pajamas. She generously booked a private room at the Jinyi Hotel to treat the people from Second-Life Star.
Meanwhile, online, a video that Xiaohai and Xiaoliao posted to a clip account, showing Jiang Xiaobai kissing Chen Jincheng, was starting to cause a stir.
The people who follow clip accounts are all Chen Jincheng's long-time, die-hard fans. So, when this video—which looked like the damn prelude to an "instructional art film"—was posted, it made their jaws drop.
The video was clearly shot in a hotel room. Cheng was carrying the girl, Xiaobai, who was dressed in sexy clothes, toward a large bed. The girl then kissed Cheng so passionately... that expression on her face was just something else.
That alone had more impact than the intros to those "instructional art films."
"Holy shit, is Cheng shooting an art film with the girl Xiaobai now?"
"And Cheng said nothing was going on with Xiaobai? You call this nothing?"
"Damn, is this the kind of video you can even film?"
"Cheng, I know you like giving us perks, so please release the 'on the bed' perks too."
"..."
What was even more unexpected was that one of the clip account videos went viral. This video, resembling the prelude to an instructional film, left many people dumbfounded.
Even many other influencers found it incredible. 'How the hell is this not getting banned?'
「Tiao Yin.」
As the president, Han Shangyou had been keeping a close eye on Second-Life Star ever since deciding to let them help test the shopping cart feature. So, when his subordinate played the viral, risqué video from the Second-Life Star clip account, his cheek started to twitch.
'I'm waiting for Second-Life Star's ad, and this is the crap I get instead?'
'Do they think our Tiao Yin platform is some porn site?'
"President Han, should we ban this? It completely violates the policy against vulgar content," a subordinate asked.
Han Shangyou frowned. Just as he was about to speak, a manager walked in and reported, "President Han, Second-Life Star has sent over the advertisement video."
"Play it," Han Shangyou ordered immediately.
A moment later, Jiang Xiaobai's outfit transition video played. The impact of the instant transformation stunned everyone, including Han Shangyou.
The video was truly novel and innovative. Crucially, the production quality was excellent. With their expert eyes, they could naturally see that this video would definitely go viral.
Now Han Shangyou understood what that risqué video was about—it was the ending of this ad. He no longer mentioned a ban and directly ordered, "Hurry up and upload this video for Second-Life Star, then attach the shopping cart."
...
Over at Jinglan Women's Clothing, they had also finished shooting their video.
Liu Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the finished product at their desk. That singer, Li Yueling, was a truly terrible actor. It took a whole day of continuous shooting just to get a few facial expressions right.
But there was nothing to be done. This was a common problem when hiring a celebrity who wasn't a professional Actor.
Just then, a secretary came in. "President Liu, we received a message from Li Yueling's side. It says you can upload the video. She will promote it on Weibo immediately to drive traffic to the ad. She'll also mobilize her fan club to help with likes. Additionally, Li Yueling's company will allocate some resources to help us build initial heat."
Liu Qing nodded and immediately clicked to upload the video.
Creating a company account on Tiao Yin and making a video ad this time was an experiment. Several of her friends had said that Tiao Yin would be the next big advertising battleground—and the one with the most traffic.
A moment later, she saw that the video was starting to get views. The play count in the backend was constantly increasing, along with likes and comments.
Within half an hour, it had already accumulated some very decent numbers.
"I've never bought this style of pajamas before!"
"The pajamas are pretty cute."
"I'm going to the Jinglan Women's Clothing Taobao store to buy one!"
"..."
These comments satisfied Liu Qing. It was clear that the women who came across the video were pleased with the design of their pajamas.
After another half an hour, the video hadn't exactly blown up—after all, Li Yueling was only a second-tier celebrity—but the steady rate of increase was still achieving the desired effect.
'I just wonder how Jinghong Women's Clothing's shoot went,' she thought. 'But hiring influencers to shoot a clothing ad? It's probably just some shoddy, slapped-together thing.'
'If all goes as expected, I should be able to thoroughly crush that Li Ya this time.'
As long as Li Ya failed with this new product launch, she could use the advantage she had already gained to specifically target her.
"President Liu, Second-Life Star just uploaded their latest video ad too!" the secretary suddenly reported, rushing in with a look of surprise. "But their video seems different. There's an extra function in the bottom-left corner."
Liu Qing immediately grabbed the secretary's phone and saw the video. Sure enough, in the bottom-left corner of their video, there was a new icon that looked like a shopping cart!
'What is that?'
