Chapter 230: Episode 230 New Alliance On The Move 1

"No way? Bai Jie told me that netizens have the memory of a goldfish, and it really is true?" Zhou Xueyin still found it hard to believe.

"It’s true. Don’t even mention content from a month ago; they might not even remember what was posted a week ago," Chang Hua said with a smile.

"A week is a bit much... But our chief editor did an experiment, if we repeat content every three days, everyone can still remember it. If we repeat it every seven days, most people forget, a few still remember, and repeating content every two weeks means only a handful remember we’ve posted it before. But content from a month ago? No one can remember that we’ve already posted it..." Zhou Xueyin said with a wry smile.

"That’s why, even if we send out the same advertisement, netizens will still buy into it because they feel like content on Weibo doesn’t require much effort to remember. Once they’ve had their fun, they move on," Chang Hua shrugged. "But we’re different. I believe you are the same as me; you would still remember content from a year ago, right?"

"Well, you’re not wrong. I thought it was just an occupational hazard... I don’t actually try to remember on purpose, but I do check the posting date for repetitive content, just to make sure I haven’t time-traveled, haha..." Zhou Xueyin joked.

"This is the professional quality of a media professional! Great! Really great! Mr. Xiaozhou, if you don’t mind, would you be willing to sign a mutually beneficial cooperation agreement with our company?" Zhou Haoren, who had been listening to the two, suddenly praised.

"Ah? Would our little company be okay?" Zhou Xueyin was somewhat flattered.

Although she managed around twenty accounts, only about ten were active and of any significant use; others might not even take notice of them.

"Of course, it’s fine! To be frank, in order to quickly take orders on this Yibo platform, the self-media accounts I have signed are all purchased with 50,000 followers..." Zhou Haoren admitted, somewhat ashamed.

"So, Mr. Xiaozhou, now you know why the price for your account to take orders is so high, right?" Chang Hua said with a smile.

Zhou Xueyin always felt that his smile was not so well-intentioned, as if he was eyeing her account...

But if she flat-out refused them, it would seem like she wasn’t appreciative.

"If it’s mutually beneficial, what do you need from my side?" Zhou Xueyin asked straightforwardly.

"Nothing is needed, just use our Yibo order platform frequently!" Chang Hua smiled again.

"On my side, I would need Mr. Xiaozhou to occasionally promote our self-media accounts, just share some interesting content. We will share as well, mutually beneficial, right?" Zhou Haoren revealed a kindly smile.

In that instant, Zhou Xueyin felt she might have misjudged them, but she still couldn’t shake the feeling that her company wasn’t as valuable as they made it out to be.

"Yinyin, there are two people over there who do video content and want to talk to you. Are you interested?" Wei Jingzhu came back just in time to help Zhou Xueyin get out of the situation.

"Mr. Chang, Mr. Zhou, I’m going to go talk with those video content creators..." Zhou Xueyin ran out from between them as if escaping, dragging Wei Jingzhu with her to find others.

"What is there to talk about that has you so scared?" Wei Jingzhu saw right through Zhou Xueyin’s fear at that moment.

"Yibo’s Mr. Chang and the boss of the self-media group, Mr. Zhou, they always seem to be coveting the accounts I manage. But at the same time, both of them keep praising me non-stop. I’m not sure if I should trust them and cooperate with them..." Zhou Xueyin confessed everything to Wei Jingzhu.

"Let’s talk to those video creators first, then we can call them up tonight to analyze!" Wei Jingzhu also didn’t want to jump to any conclusions about the cooperation right now.

Actually, this Weibo summit was quite fruitful for Zhou Xueyin.

First, she learned that the accounts she worked on were actually recognized as high-quality within the industry. Secondly, the event for Schroeder actually garnered appreciation. Lastly, she gathered insights into the future direction of Weibo content.

Although interacting with people was somewhat exhausting, overall, she was very happy.

Actually, when Wei Jingzhu took her to talk to the video content creators, it was mainly to give her an out. The main point was that he himself wanted to snag some private work on video effects.

In the evening, Zhou Xueyin called together Li Jiniang, Kang Siyin, and Yao Shanshan for a QQ voice conference.

"Yinyin, Yinyin! Was the summit fun today? Was there anything tasty?" Yao Shanshan couldn’t wait to ask as soon as she connected.

"Eat, eat, eat, that’s all you know! How come a foodie like you still has such a good figure? Where does all the food go?" Li Jiniang said enviously since she had a tendency to gain weight easily. A few years back she dared to eat recklessly, but recently she had been careful with her diet to maintain her figure.

"How’s Yibo? It’s not a scam company, is it? Yang Shixiong looked at their page code, and said it’s written quite meticulously, not the kind that would scam once and run away," Kang Siyin was the one talking about serious matters.

"Shanbao... there was plenty of good food at the conference! Such a pity you didn’t come, you really missed out!" Zhou Xueyin teased Yao Shanshan on purpose.

"Jixiang, you’re married now and Lao Li doesn’t mind your weight, so just enjoy eating! Look at me, I don’t even bother with keeping in shape anymore," Zhou Xueyin consoled Li Jiniang.

"KK, the algorithm of this Yibo company is pretty impressive..." Zhou Xueyin shared all the intelligence she knew with Kang Siyin.

"Right, everyone, Yibo, and another self-media group want to cooperate with us, mutually beneficial. Shall we agree?" After beating around the bush for a while, Zhou Xueyin finally got to the main point.

"What kind of mutual benefit are we talking about?" the people asked in unison.

"It’s about resource sharing... We take part of the orders we get and put them on the order platform, and then we can also take orders from the platform for free... Chang Hua told me the reason they gave me a high-authority account was so I wouldn’t have to pay a deposit," Zhou Xueyin repeated the details about the account platform.

"Our accounts are that valuable? So we’ve been underquoting our clients all this time?" Li Jiniang felt like she had lost a fortune.

"I’ve heard of Yibo indeed, and they made this site to facilitate order taking for those managing multiple accounts. It’s a helpful move for everyone. Cooperation isn’t a bad idea..." Kang Siyin cast a vote of approval.

"Honestly, I’m okay with anything as long as the clients approve of my design. I’m easy to talk to," Yao Shanshan typically didn’t involve herself unless it was her own business.

"So shall I agree to their terms then? I also think it’s beneficial for us. Clients these days are shrewd; they have gone through all of our accounts already. It’s time to bring in some new stuff..." Zhou Xueyin’s eyes twinkled with a plan, "We could do this: take full payment, then set aside some money for platform orders?"

"That works. We won’t lose much, and the users will get to experience something new. Isn’t that great?" Li Jiniang agreed, and the other two also nodded in approval.

"Great! After New Year’s, I’ll give them an answer!" Zhou Xueyin said happily.
