Chapter 40: Such Good Fortune Knocking at the Door?
Chapter 40: Such Good Fortune Knocking at the Door?
Chen Shengfei felt much more refreshed after coming out of the restroom.
After sending a message to Boss Zhang, he thought of his cousin, who had been transferred to Youcheng as the Tourism Bureau Director last year.
Although the Tourism Bureau Director of a small county like Youcheng is a minor position, the bureau is a relatively low-key department. However, if he performs well, there is still a lot of potential. After all, many places are now seeing the benefits of tourism. If he can create something that goes viral online, the tourism benefits can be immense.
The same goes for Ming City and its subordinate Youcheng County.
However, despite all the efforts, Youcheng had not managed to create any significant tourist attractions, let alone something that went viral online.
In Chen Shengfei's eyes, Boss Zhang's farm was bound to become a sensation.
With this thought, he found his cousin's number and gave him a call.
As soon as the call connected, he said, "Zhao Han, where are you?"
Zhao Han's voice came through, "Brother Fei, I'm in Ming City, attending a tourism development seminar!"
Chen Shengfei chuckled, "I brought my wife to Youcheng today to see the rapeseed flower fields. The flower fields here are absolutely stunning, the best in the country. And the farm's restaurant is one of the best in all of Ming City."
"Brother Fei, that's not a very funny joke," Zhao Han replied, clearly taken aback.
As the person in charge of tourism in Youcheng, Zhao Han knew very well that there were no such flower fields in the county.
He had never heard of them.
Chen Shengfei teased, "Zhao Han, the flower fields just opened today. Looks like you really didn't know. Your Tourism Bureau isn't doing its job. I'll send you a couple of videos I just took."
After hanging up, he opened WeChat and sent the two videos he had taken for his wife.
In Ming City,
Zhao Han was somewhat bewildered when he received the call from his cousin.
Someone in Youcheng had created a rapeseed flower field?
He knew his cousin's character well; he wouldn't joke about something like this. If his cousin was praising it so much, it must be really good.
When he received the WeChat message, he immediately checked it. Upon seeing the two videos of the rapeseed flower fields his cousin had sent, his face showed a look of disbelief: "Is this real? This is Youcheng's flower field?"
The flower fields in the video were incredibly beautiful.
Being in the tourism industry, Zhao Han had a keen eye for landscapes. He could tell that if this rapeseed flower field was promoted well, it would definitely become popular.
This was indeed good news for him.
He immediately took out his phone and started making arrangements.
The owner who created this flower field must be a capable person. He could have his subordinates notify the owner to come to the Tourism Bureau and fill out an application for the tourism landscape project subsidy.
This was a support policy from the higher-ups, and now all the scenic spots in Youcheng were benefiting from it.
Depending on the situation of the scenic spot, subsidies ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions, or even tens of millions, were possible.

After dropping Fu Yao off at the high school, Zhang Lin picked up his phone and saw the WeChat message from Chen Shengfei.
While he knew the +2 attribute for constipation treatment was powerful, he hadn't expected such quick and significant results.
This was truly a blessing for those suffering from constipation.
If he could sell this honeysuckle tea, it would definitely become a unique feature of his farm.
According to the recipe ratio, a 500ML cup of the tea would only require 1 gram of honeysuckle, meaning that 500 grams of honeysuckle could produce 500 cups of 500ML honeysuckle tea.
Given the effectiveness Chen Shengfei described, selling each cup for 200 yuan would mean 100,000 yuan for 500 cups.
A normal person might not spend 200 yuan on a cup of honeysuckle tea, but for those suffering from constipation, 200 yuan to relieve their discomfort in such a short time would be worth it.
More importantly, once this product gained a reputation, the money earned would be secondary. It would serve as an excellent means to attract customers.
Feeling that this was a great idea, Zhang Lin decided to move forward with it.
However, to sell the honeysuckle tea at 200 yuan per cup, he couldn't just use any ordinary cup. He would need to use a beautifully designed cup with a unique logo and pattern for Lianyuan Farm.
With this in mind, he rode his scooter to Millennium Advertising, where he had previously commissioned them to create directional banners and promotional posters. Since their cooperation had been smooth, he could continue to work with them on the design.
As for the background image, we'll still use the promotional picture from before, with Fu Yao posing amidst a sea of rapeseed flowers—it's a perfect match.
When he reached Qianxi Productions, Zhang Lin called Lin Yao, whom he had met in Chapter 28.
"Mr. Zhang, welcome, welcome," Lin Yao greeted him with a warm smile. "What kind of business do you need this time?"
Zhang Lin smiled and explained, "This time, I need you to design a logo and packaging for a cup of honeysuckle tea, as well as a promotional advertisement. I need a banner that's about 2 meters high and 1 meter wide, with the content highlighting its cooling, thirst-quenching, and constipation-relieving effects."
Promoting a product with medical claims is usually against the rules. However, honeysuckle does have medicinal properties, including the ability to alleviate constipation, which allows for a bit of creative marketing.
Hearing Zhang Lin's request, Lin Yao asked out of curiosity, "Mr. Zhang, does your honeysuckle tea really help with constipation? How effective is it?"
Zhang Lin nodded with a smile, "It's quite effective, Mr. Lin. Do you suffer from constipation?"
Lin Yao quickly shook his head, "Of course not! It's for a friend. I'm just asking on his behalf."
Zhang Lin, noting Lin Yao's reaction, smiled and said, "When the product is available, Mr. Lin, you can have your friend try it out."
"Definitely, definitely!" Lin Yao responded eagerly. "I'll make sure to have him try it."
After signing the contract with Qianxi Productions, Zhang Lin returned to the farm to check on the morning's operations.
This morning, 153 tickets were sold for the rapeseed flower sea, and the restaurant served 16 tables of guests.
While this might seem small compared to famous tourist attractions, it was a significant number compared to other sites in Youcheng, especially considering it was only the first morning and the online promotion hadn't even started.
Moreover, 153 tickets at 50 yuan each amounted to 7,650 yuan. Adding the revenue from the 16 tables, the total profit came to 5,345 yuan. In just one morning, he had already made 12,995 yuan.
The number of visitors in the afternoon was likely to increase, and the revenue from the flower sea could easily double. Once the online promotion kicked in, the numbers could multiply even further.
Thinking about this, Zhang Lin decided it was time to start the online promotion. The opening had gone well, and many visitors had already posted videos online.
He immediately took out his phone, logged into Xiangyin, and uploaded a new video featuring Fu Yao in the rapeseed flower sea. He then spent 10,000 yuan on DOU+ to boost the video.
While 10,000 yuan might not be as much as some big players who spend 100,000 yuan at a time, for a tourist site like his, it was a significant investment. With the high-quality video, the "In-Frame +1" attribute, and the continuous uploads from visitors, the video was sure to go viral.
This time, the DOU+ promotion didn't face the same restrictions from network competitors as before. The views quickly surpassed 2,000 and kept climbing, along with the likes and comments.
Zhang Lin then checked the game in his mind, as another milestone had been triggered.
[Your farm is on track and has started online promotion. Attract enough followers to your farm account to unlock the corresponding milestone rewards!]
Zhang Lin noted that the initial milestone reward for attracting followers was much higher than the one for hosting visitors. Hosting 100 visitors was the initial reward for the latter, while attracting 10,000 followers was required for the former.
However, given the rapid increase in views, likes, and comments, the DOU+ promotion would definitely help the video gain traction. After the current batch of DOU+ ended, he could run another batch to ensure the promotion took off.
Just as he was thinking about this, his phone rang with an unknown number. Despite the unfamiliarity, he answered it.
When he heard the message on the other end, his face showed genuine surprise.
Could there be such a good thing coming his way?
