Chapter 364: Show Them What Real Sponsorship Looks Like
"Boss, online they’re saying Miss Chi joined with sponsorship."
Jiang An came to pick up Song Shiyu. There was still a project meeting in the afternoon, and on the way, he sneaked a glance at the backseat and knew his boss was watching Miss Chi’s livestream.
His boss liked Miss Chi so much. After knowing Miss Chi was going to participate in the Farm project, he even negotiated an advertising partnership with the Farm.
Actually, it wasn’t even a formal advertisement. It was just that Miss Chi would definitely use Song Family’s products during the livestream, so they simply signed a small ad deal with the program team.
Everything else was negotiated by Amber with the program team.
Even the livestream selling was the program team’s attempt to latch onto Miss Chi’s popularity, specially approving her to sell products, wasn’t it!
Yet now, this has become fodder for others!
These haters just say whatever catches attention!
In just a moment, several marketing accounts had already posted articles about joining with sponsorship.
Song Shiyu looked at the comments on the livestream, with an indifferent expression, revealing nothing of what he was thinking.
Jiang An waited for a long time without getting a response, glanced at the rearview mirror again, still didn’t see any expression, and didn’t dare to speak up anymore.
"Since they’re saying it’s joining with sponsorship, then..."
Suddenly, Song Shiyu spoke, in the rearview mirror, holding a phone with one hand, the other on the armrest, his slender fingers tapping gently, then slowly opened his mouth again: "Add another 10 million in ads."
Jiang An: ...
The boss is the boss, truly rich!
If we’re going to be wrongly accused, might as well make it true!
If you have the guts, try joining with sponsorship too!
Netizens really don’t find it hard to talk when they’re not involved, fine, now let them talk all they want!
"Yes, Boss."
He didn’t find it inappropriate, and arranged it as soon as he reached the company.
If Chi Youyou were present, she would definitely give Song Shiyu a lesson. Too much money to burn!
Why not give it to me!
Of course, Chi Youyou wasn’t aware. On her side, using the smart farming tools developed by Song Family, leading two top-tier celebrities to work on the farm.
[OMG, what’s with this woman! Just started bossing my idol around to work?]
[Oh my! It’s just because my idol has a good temper, otherwise I’d have walked away right away!]
[Hahaha, because there’s a camera, who dares to show a tantrum?]
[The commenter above must be a hater!]
[Pfft, I’ve bought stuff from Youzi’s livestream before, just saw the ad in her livestream room, came to take a look, can’t handle these celebrity fans!]
[Exactly, I’m just stating facts, look how aggressive they are!]
[So you’re Youzi’s fan, just a small time streamer, does she think this will establish an image? Hitch a ride on popularity? Dream on!]
[Didn’t you see Youbao giving smart tools to the two male celebrities! She’s the one actually working there!]
[Lol, isn’t she just a country girl, isn’t it normal for her to do farm work?]
[Don’t you all like watching her do farm work?]
"Gosh, they always say never to argue with brainless fans, just look what they’re saying!"
Zhao Qingran and her friends had nothing to do today, so they were watching the livestream from the dorm.
"I also follow celebrities, but I’m more rational, never went this far."
Lin Xing is quite introverted, and follows stars in a low-key way, like she followed Actor Jinshu, previously thought Su Jinxiao was good too, but in her heart, Jinshu was always number one.
"These fans are really tarnishing the reputation of us fans of Jinshu, I suspect they’re actually anti-fans!"
Seeing the comments, she didn’t want to be associated with them at all. They’re just talking big for a moment’s joy, and it’s their idols who have to clean up their mess later.
"If Youbao wasn’t working diligently there, would they say she’s being lazy?"
"Xiao Mi! Nail on the head! You hit the truth!"
Zhao Qingran gave a double thumbs up, "Anyway, they just don’t recognize Youbao, no matter what Youbao does, they won’t have anything nice to say!"
"Not okay, even though we know Youbao will eventually make them see her differently, our Honey Pomelo Army must not lose!"
"That’s right!"
With that, the three picked up their phones and rejoined the commenting army.
"Here, you can use this."
Su Jinxiao operated a remote-controlled weeding machine. Besides a sweet potato patch and a rice field in front, all the Farm was overgrown with weeds.
Chi Youyou handed the weeding machine to him, gave the harvester to Jinshu, and took up a hoe herself to loosen the soil on a barren patch.
Though they knew she was skilled in farm work, still decided to help out.
"No need, these smart machines are best for you two to use, I can manage with this."
She waved her hoe slightly, speaking honestly.
"Let us men handle the laborious work..."
"I appreciate the teachers’ kindness, but I grew up in rice fields, these farm tasks are everyday affairs to me, you really don’t have to bother too much."
With that, she skillfully waved her hoe at them, demonstrating, "We have to finish these tasks before the sun gets too hot at noon!"
Though autumn isn’t as hot as summer, sometimes a heatwave can still sneak up.
Thankfully, they caught the right timing.
As Chi Youyou put it, this works out perfectly; once autumn harvest is done, they can move to a new round of sowing.
Moreover, their plan was to sell these sweet potatoes and rice to earn some money to buy seeds.
As for what seeds they’d buy, hehe, she gets to decide.
The program didn’t set any boundaries, they just didn’t provide starting funds!
Initially, Jinshu didn’t think much of their efforts, and this show seemed like a time-killer to him, just as a chance to visit those two grandchildren his grandpa always talked about.
What could two countryside-raised kids possibly do?
But now he found this Youzi quite interesting.
She worked with impressive skill, no pretense at all!
"If you need help with anything, just call us."
Neither he nor the other insisted further, perhaps to her, they were the ones dragging behind.
Chi Youyou worked swiftly, and though the land hadn’t been used for a while, it was clear the farm owner had kept it well maintained, making it easy for them to utilize again.
"Look how well they’re working, old man."
The old woman didn’t have the energy to work alongside, but it was nearing noon, and she could still make a simple lunch.
Next to her, the old man snorted with his nose upturned, "Using these hodgepodge gadgets, you’re not disgracing our Farm enough already!"
"These are modern machines, see, you don’t know this, do you! Aside from those machines, look at that young girl, working so efficiently, I can already see the Farm flourishing."
"Flourishing my foot, just don’t ruin it!"
The old man acted stubborn, but his eyes still lingered on Chi Youyou.
Hmph, seems like the girl is a bit useful after all.
