Chapter 180: Chapter 180 Atong Continues to Work Hard

Because the video’s BGM didn’t have subtitles and the volume seemed to be intentionally lowered a bit, the main focus was meant to be on the video content.

Therefore, He Junfeng hadn’t really noticed the seemingly inconspicuous background music before.

It was only after reading a few comments that mentioned it that he suddenly realized, the video’s BGM actually sounded quite flavorful?

He hurriedly replayed the video, pulling it back to the very beginning while turning up the volume.

The BGM started over, and this time he heard it clearly.

A slightly husky male voice was softly singing.

"You forgot, the cold wind that brushed past the wound."

"You believed, if there’s no pain and no itch, it’s like living a whole life."

"You, why, feel like singing when you see the snow falling."

"Why do tears fall when it’s time to let go."

"One by one, they pass by."

"One by one, missed..."

He Junfeng was completely taken aback.

This, was actually quite nice to listen to.

And indeed, it was a song he had never heard before.

Was it someone’s newly released song?

Puzzled, he quickly noticed not only was the singing pleasing, but the song paired exceptionally well with the video’s visuals.

For instance, at the beginning where it sang about snow, the screen displayed a netizen’s footage of snow outside their window.

Likewise, other scenes were chosen to correspond one by one.

Previously, he simply thought the video’s visuals were well edited, which immersed him in the video’s atmosphere layer by layer.

But now, taking the video’s BGM separately, he was shocked to realize that the emotional progression was largely attributed to the BGM.

It was indeed this BGM’s melody and vocals, in combination with the visuals, that subtly propelled the viewer’s emotional journey.

Even if he just listened to the song without the visuals, it seemed like he could vaguely feel an atmosphere surrounding it.

Where did the host find such a fitting song for the video?

After listening to the song several times, He Junfeng couldn’t help but start asking about the song’s origin in the comment section.

Besides listening to music, he hadn’t forgotten about his actual job.

Upon discovering this person seemed to be a new user who had not signed with any other MCN organization, he directly messaged the host in the backend, inquiring whether they were interested in joining an MCN to create content.

...

Beijing, Wu Mu’s home.

Wu Mu, who had just been out for a stroll and had dinner, returned home.

He took out his phone to check the data of the video he had posted.

"Eight million six hundred thousand views?"

Wu Mu was slightly surprised, he didn’t expect it to grow so quickly; in just a morning, it was nearing ten million views.

It could only mean that Douyin’s reach was huge; on other platforms, even if the quality of the video was good, it wouldn’t have increased this rapidly.

Also, the Performance Card seemed to be inherently compatible with big data recommendation platforms like Douyin, where the system’s covert marketing tactics fitted perfectly.

Adding a little ’water’ to boost his video to more people wouldn’t raise a bit of suspicion; it was completely under the radar.

Of course, the insurance he had taken out probably also played a significant role.

Wu Mu clicked into the comment section of the video.

He noticed that the comment section was exceptionally active.

The main directions of the comments were divided into three categories.

"This kind of financial platform really deserves to die! I don’t understand why the government doesn’t crack down on them. Promoting higher debt rates among the people is clearly harmful to the country, isn’t it?"

"Ha, talk about cracking down? Millions depend on these jobs for their livelihood, don’t you think the authorities are too busy protecting them? Haven’t you heard the saying that the end of the internet is finance?"

"I borrowed from Yihai Platform before; it’s one of those particularly unscrupulous platforms within the black-hearted flock. The highest interest rate is 36% annually, and it’s fixed installments of principal and interest, where the interest isn’t reduced even after paying back part of the principal. Calculated on the actual annual interest rate, it’s already hit 66%."

"Sigh, I’ve reported this platform to help out, albeit modestly."

These comments were discussing the financial platform itself.

"I want to ask the host if the girl from the last post is still alive?"

"If that girl is still alive, please contact me. I might not be able to help much, but I can help her pay off the debt without interest."

These were discussing the girl who left a suicide note at the end of the video.

And the last category, as Wu Mu expected,

Were all inquiring about the video’s BGM.

Asking who sung the song, why they had never heard it before.

Of course, they could never have heard it.

This song was a new one Wu Mu got yesterday.

It was the one titled "What Can I Use to Keep You," which he had secretly slipped in as insurance.

The system’s covert marketing was logical, and as logic would have it, rubbish churned out en masse couldn’t create as much buzz as a carefully prepared feast.

If he edited the video like a PPT with just screenshots and pictures, even if people came across it, who would be interested in watching and learning about it all the way through?

So just like at the Paris Game Show before, he had to manually create some viral points to facilitate the system’s marketing push.

The song he got before was undoubtedly very suitable for use in this kind of themed montage video.

Plus, he had sneakily used a little ’boost’ when recording the song... just a little, not daring to use more, otherwise it would be too much like the songs "Under the Sea" and "Heavenly Queen," where emotion bursts forth as soon as one begins to sing. Then what’s the point of pretending with a small account?

Anyway, for various reasons, those factors contributed to his video’s current view count.

Wu Mu nodded in satisfaction, "Atong, keep up the good work. Ten thousand has been cashed in, just nine hundred and ninety-nine thousand left to go."

However, he also noticed that the system had already started sending him other channels for cashing in.

Like a backend account called "Sharp Peak Media—He Junfeng," which had sent him over a dozen messages.

At first, it just asked if he had signed with an MCN and if he was interested in joining their company.

Then, less than half an hour later, they sent another message saying they’d give him a hundred thousand signing bonus as long as he joined their company.

Another half an hour passed, and seeing Wu Mu didn’t respond, they got a bit anxious and raised their offer, directly to three hundred thousand... and the latest message already touched on an offering price of eight hundred thousand.

And not just MCN organizations – there were also quite a few advertisers in the backend private messages asking if he could pin their advertisements in the comment section or even modify the video to add their ad link, all on a paid basis.

Wu Mu guessed that these opportunities were actually the channels arranged by the system for him to cash in.

If he accepted them, they would surely deduct from the Performance Card limit.

But if he didn’t, would it mean that his performance could never be completed and Atong would have to keep pushing his video to go viral?

Thus, Wu Mu didn’t even reply to these private messages in the backend; he just waited for the system to continue increasing the video’s popularity.

Meanwhile, as Wu Mu waited for his video to further ferment, investor Li Hu was already becoming extremely anxious.
