Chapter 96: Membership System
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The dessert shop had not been open for a long time. It was just starting to become famous, and if they were to make changes according to Zhu Yingyue’s suggestion, Lin Xiaowan was worried that no one would come.
Zhu Yingyue laughed at Lin Xiaowan’s naivety. She said, “I’m sure you know better than me why we have so many customers as soon as we opened for business. As long as you’re around, you don’t have to worry about not having customers.”
Zhu Yingyue continued to say, “Even if people object to it, it’ll only be temporary. Moreover, after we make these changes, it’ll also help us gather more quality customers. By the way, I’m guessing those people promoting our shop probably know you…”
Lin Xiaowan was slightly surprised. She did not think of this at all. She assumed that only those slightly older customers had ulterior motives. She did not think that those young girls and young men had those thoughts as well. Nonetheless, it was not a bad thing. She did not think much about it and let Zhu Yingyue do what she wanted.
Zhu Yingyue created a public account on Speaker, a social media platform. The first thing she posted was the changes to the second floor. She even bought some traffic, which attracted a lot of attention and comments.
Due to the renovations on the second floor, it was closed for a few days.
Lin Xiaowan downloaded Speaker and went to have a look. There were many comments, and most of them were negative.
Many passersby mocked the dessert shop, saying that the desserts were ugly and that they were money hungry. Some people even wondered why there had to be an exclusive system for the second floor when it was just a dessert shop for people to enjoy desserts.
There were also people who said that they planned to visit the dessert shop but changed their minds after learning about the changes.
Some people who had already visited the dessert shop also slandered the desserts, saying that the desserts were not delicious and the ingredients used were not good. In conclusion, they said they would not visit again in the future.
Lin Xiaowan was naturally unhappy. The patissiers they hired were all very skilled. On Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, they would serve Western desserts, and they would serve Shangxia desserts on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. In her opinion, everything was delicious.
Lin Xiaowan took a few screenshots and sent them to Zhu Yingyue.
[Lin Xiaowan: Are these comments really not a problem?]
Zhu Yingyue did not seem to care at all.
[Zhu Yingyue: It doesn’t matter. Look at the commenters. Almost none of them are our target audience.]
[Zhu Yingyue: Moreover, I’ve made it clear that the changes only apply to the second floor. Nothing has changed on the first floor. In any case, those who want to go to the second floor will still go to the second floor. This won’t affect anything.]
Lin Xiaowan thought about it and agreed with Zhu Yingyue. There was nothing to worry about. Even after the changes on the second floor, there would not be fewer customers.
Moreover, not all the comments were negative. There were many people who were quite supportive, especially those who had visited before. They knew that the second floor would be redecorated, and they would no longer have to wait for a long time to go to the second floor now that a reservation system was in place.
Zhu Yingyue was in charge of the second floor’s renovation. However, she still kept Lin Xiaowan in the loop.
Lin Xiaowan also did not ask many questions since she trusted Zhu Yingyue.
The day before the renovation was completed, Zhu Yingyue added Lin Xiaowan as an administrator of the dessert shop’s account.
Speaker users could not add each other as friends, but they could follow each other’s accounts.
Lin Xiaowan searched for Huo Zheng and discovered he was not Speaker. There were only accounts of Huo Corporation and its subsidiary companies.
“Why don’t you have a personal account?” Lin Xiaowan asked Huo Zheng, “I saw many presidents and CEOs have their own personal accounts. They also have a lot of followers…”
“I don’t need it…”
Huo Zheng had no interest in such things. Needless to say, the company accounts were all handled by relevant employees. He did not see a need for him to have an account.
After that, Lin Xiaowan searched for Gu Yuwu, and she was shocked when she saw that Gu Yuwu had 4.0 million followers. She quickly clicked on the ‘follow’ button, and she became an inconspicuous follower among the 40 million followers.
Lin Xiaowan used the default profile picture, which was of a robot. She did not have many photos on her phone, after all. After scrolling through her photo album for a long time, apart from photos of desserts, she found that she only had photos from her trip to Mount An. Initially, she wanted to use the photo of her and Huo Zheng, but suddenly, she felt like she wanted to keep the photo to herself.
‘What should I use as my profile picture?’
Lin Xiaowan did not want to use cartoon avatars. In the end, she decided to use the photo of an inanimate object as her profile picture. She wandered around the house, looking for things she could use as her profile picture.
Meanwhile, Huo Zheng watched Lin Xiaowan wander around the house like a headless fly. One moment, she took photos of a basket of fruits, and the next moment, she took photos of the flowers on the table.. Finally, he could not help but ask in confusion, “Qingqing, what are you doing?”
