Group Pet Eldest Lady, She Just Wants To Be A Salted Fish

Chapter 16 – Who would use that amount to buy an airplane!

The fans were bought by Gu Zexi.

The reason is simple: if you want to become a top streamer, you need to have a large number of fans to keep up.

We need to maintain our status in the cute pet industry!

Later, we will also have some fan engagement and promotional activities.

The problem is that Gu Zexi doesn’t have any related materials for the cute pet yet, so he can’t rely on the cute appearance of the fat cat to attract the masses. This is the only method he thought of for the time being.

Gu Zexi felt a bit proud of himself and sent a private message to @Fat Cat Who Tries Hard To Spend Money.

[Most of the one million fans are active and won’t dilute the weight! They’ll also comment and repost!]

Of course, the price is also exorbitant.

Gu Zexi’s attitude is as good as that of a certain Taobao customer service, so enthusiastic that he almost chased Ruan Yōu just to say—

‘Please give me a five-star rating *kiss*’

Ruan Yōu happened to glance at the private message and paused for a moment.

Real fans are paying for her to buy followers?

[Thank you, please don’t do this anymore.]

Gu Zexi was disappointed and somewhat puzzled. He didn’t know who was running the official account, whether it was Gu FuChen’s idea, Jiang Huai’s, or the leader of a subsidiary. After some hesitation, he decided not to reply.

Regardless, meeting Gu Fuchen now is the most important thing.

Ruan Yōu stayed at home for two days and remembered her vow to complete the task of spending money soon. With determination, she opened her phone and prepared to spend money.

Gu Fuchen’s idea of her image is very clear.

—A spendthrift young lady who only knows to spend money recklessly every day and doesn’t do anything serious.

This character setting is exactly what she wants.

Last night, her mom called her on a voice call. During the conversation, Ruan Yōu praised Gu Fuchen very highly and “accidentally” revealed that she was reading investment books. She repeatedly emphasized that she couldn’t understand them and didn’t have the ability to invest. After receiving comfort from Ruan Liuyu, who told her not to bother, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, her mom seemed very busy, and in a moment of confusion, she thought she heard the word “doctor.” Ruan Liu Yu quickly hung up when she sensed someone coming over, saying that she was busy.

Her attitude with her mother has always maintained a distance that is neither too far nor too close, which she likes very much.

Previously, while browsing the news online, Ruan Yōu saw that parents who had found their long-lost child would cry tears of joy, and the scene was very touching. She had cried several times while watching it.

But just the thought of such a thing happening to herself made her feel uneasy and a bit embarrassed.

After losing contact with her second family, her emotional attachment to her parents was never as deep.

Perhaps her current family may appear unfamiliar and lacking in warmth to others, but she loves them!

It was Saturday, and contrary to his usual routine, Gu Fuchen did not rest and returned to the company to handle Gu Zexi’s matter.

Upon hearing that her brother was pitifully working overtime at the company, Ruan Yōu felt a pang of heartache and worked even harder at spending money.

Spending a little more money could help secure her brother’s position!

Ruan Yōu first spent 20 yuan to buy virtual items in the game “Honor of Kings.”

As the top-ranking spendthrift, she took pride in her reputation as a rich lady!

She bought skins, drew Honor crystals, and went through every possible way to spend virtual currency. Rubbing her sore fingers, Ruan Yōu collapsed on the sofa, joyfully rolling back and forth, happy to end her game shopping spree.

Before, she had the ability to buy skins, but because she had to save money, she was always hesitant to spend too much. She would consider buying things over and over again, and would only reward herself with something after completing a certain task. In the end, she did buy the skin, but the long deliberation and pressure drained the joy of buying it.

She couldn’t be like now, spending without any worries, completely ignoring what might happen in the future~ OvO

Many limited skins don’t have a return event, and even with money, they can’t be bought.

Ruan Yōu briefly felt sad for two seconds.

Can only wait for next time.

There are still too few places to spend money in Honor.

Ruan Yōu kept scrolling down in the skin shopping mall, making sure she had bought all the skins, and looked at the several tens of thousands of unused points with a troubled expression.

If she couldn’t buy anything she liked in the live shopping event later, she would go play Wang Yi’s online game.

Wang Yi Wang Yi, as the name suggests—

Trap online players to spend 100 million.1

Although it’s an exaggeration, it’s enough to show how much money gamers could spend on that company’s games.

In the world of gaming, spending money on virtual items is not a small amount. Spending tens or hundreds of million yuan is not uncommon.

If she has time in the future, she will become a legendary figure in the gaming world who shakes the industry with her spending power!

During middle school, games like “Nirvana on Fire” and “Dreaming of the East” were all the rage on the internet. The phrase “If you’re a brother, come and cut me” from the game “Chuan X Fighting” is still circulating to this day. Ruan Yōu had heard of these games, but because of her studies and lack of pocket money, she could only restrain her desires and focus on studying.

In middle school, the teachers always liked to say “you are the worst class I have ever taught” and “study hard and go to a good high school”. After she endured three years of hard work and finally got into a prestigious high school, only to become the worst class among the rocket class2 in the words of the homeroom teachers. And the phrase “study hard and going to college will be easy” had become calluses in her ears.

Although knowing that it was only a virtual expectation, Ruan Yōu still treated this phrase as a spiritual pillar.

Ruan Yōu knew that she was different from others.

If classmates didn’t do well in their studies, they would be scolded by their parents, but their parents would still support them after scolding.

But that wasn’t the case for her.

She didn’t have the qualification to fail.

Even if she was interested in dancing, the outside world, or the games discussed by her classmates during breaks, Ruan Yōu would still restrain herself and concentrate on doing exercises, preparing material for tutoring work on Sundays while her classmates chatted about certain celebrities.

Ruan Yōu had a plan when she entered the entertainment industry.

She would earn some money and retire early to start a retired life, using the next few decades to embrace the regrets she couldn’t satisfy in the past 20 years.

Every day now, she is making up for the happiness she missed in the past.

It’s time to start on the second homework.

On the day of the Live Shopping Festival, many anchors were livestreaming to sell products from morning till night. Ruan Yōu searched for a less crowded live broadcast room to avoid having her favorite items snatched away by others before she could buy them.

After searching for a while, she didn’t find any suitable rooms, but the name of one live streaming room caught her attention.

—<Count me as a loser if you can afford to buy it.>

While other anchors were eager to get their viewers to place orders, this live broadcast room stood out as a breath of fresh air in the Live Shopping Festival.

Anchor, the name was overly arrogant.

But Ruan Yōu liked it!

Within a few minutes of entering the room, the number of viewers skyrocketed, and the barrage area was also very active.

[Whimpering, I’m dreaming again]

[‘Look but not buying’ series]

[This has become my entry-level knowledge course for luxury goods]

[Hahaha, with that name, can the anchor fulfill the KPI?]

The female anchor smiled sweetly and said, “Everyone is welcome to watch for free, we don’t have any KPIs.”

The audience of Jiujiu’s live broadcast room had just passed six million, making her a big anchor.

Her live broadcast room is different from the usual live broadcast positioning. It’s not strictly speaking a live streaming and sales platform. Of course, there are wealthy women who buy skincare products worth thousands, handbags worth tens of thousands, and jewelry worth millions. However, compared to other live broadcast rooms, Jiujiu’s live broadcast room may not be as competitive in terms of transaction volume.

The positioning of Jiujiu’s live streaming room should be: live showcasing products of major brands, which can be seen as a form of free brand promotion.

By live streaming, helping brands reach young users and convey brand values.

On the right side of the screen is today’s list of live streaming products.

Makeup, bags, and a mystery product.

“Ding ding ding~ Now it’s time to introduce our mystery product. As mentioned earlier, our last product of this period is different from the previous ones. For this product, our team and I traveled throughout the country for a whole month, and now we have the final mystery gift pack. Those who want to quit the live stream now, stop! Tadaa~!”

With a cute pose, Jiujiu put her hands together in front of the camera.

Feeling guilty, Ruanyu retreated her hand and went to the living room on the seventh floor, casting the screen onto the LCD TV and lying on the sofa to watch it slowly.

There are too many TVs at home.

The giant screen is only good for watching dramas and movies, and it’s better to use the LCD TV for live streaming.

[Is it more luxurious than a million-yuan watch?]

[Why am I so focused when I’m looking at it?]

[I waited too diligently and missed the face towel next door, I cried because I could’ve saved 29.9 yuan.]

[Tell me quickly, I’m so anxious, twisting and turning.]

[Is it an Hermès million-yuan bag? A Chanel haute couture? But many of these have purchasing thresholds, and bags also need to be paired with accessories… It’s impossible to bring them out and sell them in the live streaming room.]

The last product was described by Jiujiu as if it were something extraordinary, and many people were watching the excitement.

Jiujiu smiled and said, “Our final product is a private jet! A private jet, and not just one!”

The staff in the live broadcast room pulled back the beige curtain behind Jiujiu, revealing the LCD screen hidden behind it.

The drones in the screen are filming from the sky, overlooking the vast ground below.

Three planes are lined up neatly, accompanied by a powerful and majestic background music in the video. The symphony waves one after another, bringing an indescribable and intense shock to the viewers.

Some cheap private planes can be bought for 40 million yuan.

However, private planes are not like luxury cars.

Planes are used less frequently, and the maintenance, care, and parking restrictions make it difficult for many people who have the ability to buy private planes to actually buy them.

Who would spend 40 million yuan on a Chihuahua that is almost purely ornamental and bring it back home?

If you have that kind of money, it’s better to buy an emerald to hang around your neck as a display piece!

[Wow!!!]

[As the saying goes, the poor play with cars, and the rich play with watches. Who the hell would play with planes…]

[D*mn, it’s so awesome. Even having one private plane is cool enough, but Jiujiu showed three!]

[Wuwuwu, if I had a plane, I could travel anywhere and have meals while flying. It feels so good just thinking about it.]

“The first plane, a Legacy, is the most expensive, priced at 200 million in the market.” Jiujiu pointed to the screen. “It has a cabin volume of about 48 cubic meters and can accommodate up to 13 passengers. The interior of the cabin is like a small home, oh no, how can I compare my shabby little house to a private plane! The leather, carpet, and solid wood furniture inside the cabin are all top-notch. My family can’t even afford to decorate our house like this. In the kitchen, there is a coffee machine, refrigerator, microwave oven, and oven, everything you need. And most, most, most importantly—

After buying this plane, you can also have your name or logo printed on the middle of the plane!”

Juju’s tone was excited, “Think about this scene—

“As the sun sets in the sky, the red clouds fill the sky with ten thousand beams of light, a plane flies from the sea of clouds, and the wings gradually turn red, moving the light inch by inch. The plane with your name or just a phrase you like, in the glow, heading towards the distance.

“Your name, across my sky.

“It’s so romantic, guys!!!”

[Damn, I’m smitten.]

[If it were me, I’d definitely put my name on the outside so everyone knows this plane is mine. Yes, I’m that tacky!]

[Jiujiu, snap out of it, this kind of romance would cost 200 million!!]

[That’s how the romance of the rich and famous is, simple and unadorned. Who cares? I do!]

Jiujiu excitedly said, “Before introducing the second and third planes, we must thank our benefactor, Chi Xiao Airlines, for exhibiting these three planes. Now let’s enjoy the next two planes!”

[Hahaha, Jiujiu has given up on selling and is just lying down, enjoying these luxurious planes with us.]

[Hahaha, the team never even had plans to sell them.]

[Just because it’s a private jet doesn’t mean you can buy it right away! It’s good for everyone to take a look. Anyway, I have material for my dreams tonight.]

….

Ruan Yōu was completely focused on listening to Juju’s commentary and didn’t look at the barrage.

Her heart was pounding.

Before entering the live broadcast room, she seemed to have abandoned all worldly desires, without any shopping desires. But after entering the room, she felt—

She wanted to buy everything!

Ruan Yōu had never considered buying a private jet before because she wouldn’t use it often and it would be a waste of money. But today, after listening to Jiujiu’s beautiful and immersive commentary, she was tempted.

So what if she didn’t go out often?

Can’t she buy a private jet and use it as a beautiful decoration on the tarmac to benefit the public?

A two hundred million yuan ink painting can only be appreciated by a few people in her corridor on the seventh floor, but a plane is different. A two hundred million yuan plane parked there can be enjoyed by all of humanity! (bushi

Each of the three planes has its own advantages. The first one is more expensive, but has a larger cabin capacity. The second one costs 100 million, and its interior design is futuristic, making you feel like you’re traveling in a space world. The third one is small and exquisite, costing only 80 million yuan, with excellent value for money. Many domestic celebrities prefer this model.

She may not fly, but she needs the romantic feeling of “traveling in a space world”! The trouble of delayed flights must be solved!!

But…

Which one should she buy?

Ruan Yōu is conflicted.

The first one is a bit romantic, and the large cabin area makes it feel dreamy to sleep on it during sunset. She wants to buy it.

The second one is a bit dreamy, with a space world that makes people indulge. She wants to buy it.

The third one is practical, preferred by many celebrities, and has the best value for money. She also wants to buy it.

In the live stream, Jiujiu praised the planes.

“The airplane not selling is not even a concern, it does not affect my love for it at all!

“To have such a high-end product featured in my live stream, I am over the moon, everyone! This nearly 400 million airplane is here, can you feel how my live stream is shining bright?”

[Report the streamer for drinking fake alcohol haha]

[Assistant, please quickly pull Jiujiu down, if she keeps going she might get too proud and start dancing on stage]

[With three airplanes featured, and getting this proud, if a real wealthy person actually buys one, their team’s KPI will explode, and Jiujiu might go crazy]

[Not just the anchor… anyone witnessing this scene would go crazy, if they don’t, they don’t deserve the red money!]

At this moment, Ruan Yōu is still struggling, her mind is blank.

Her fair face is twisted into a frown, and her cheeks unconsciously puffed up.

It feels like when she was in junior high and wanted to buy ice cream, she wanted to try all the different flavors but her pockets were empty and her allowance only allowed her to choose her current favorite. Every time she made a choice, Ruan Yōu would look at the other flavors in the freezer and swear to buy all of them when she had enough money in the future.

But now a problem arises :

Why is she worried about money?

It was the last few minutes before the end of the livestream.

“Alright, guys, even if we can’t afford it, we have to put on a show. The three planes have been linked, and each plane has its own price point. The first plane costs 200 million yuan, and we are not cheating anyone with the price. These three planes have a total value of 380 million yuan. Today we are showcasing these amazing products together! Now, we will follow a process. Even if you don’t buy, just listen.

“In order to let the rich enjoy the happiness of saving money, we also have a discount package for the planes. The first plane is now 200 million yuan, the second is 100 million yuan, and the third is 80 million yuan. If you buy all three together, you can get a 5% discount, which is a reduction of 24 million yuan.”

After jokingly introducing the discount package, Jiujiu continued, “Let’s wait for another minute and click on the link. Anyway, no one will…”

Before Jiujiu could finish her sentence, her assistant trembled and shook Jiujiu’s hand, stuttering, “The products… are sold, sold out.”

The live streaming room fell silent for a moment.
