Chapter 47: The Ambition of Breaking 10,000 Daily Orders (31k Requests for Follows)
Startup Park, Room 206.
Song Yuncheng sat at her workstation, gaze fixed on the product information on the screen, dragging the mouse with one hand while copying and writing notes in a notebook with the other.
Occasionally pausing her pen, she pondered the page's sorting order with a thoughtful expression.
Her long, soft hair, like a waterfall, was simply tied into a ponytail; a stray strand clung to her cheek, trembling slightly with her movements.
"Hey, why haven't you left yet? Trying to scam my overtime pay again?"
A teasing voice suddenly rang out from behind; Song Yuncheng jumped in fright and instinctively stood up.
"Bang!"
Song Yuncheng's head slammed hard into Chen Yansen's chin, making her gasp in pain.
"Do you walk without making a sound? You scared me! Uh, it hurts!" Song Yuncheng glared, questioning him fiercely.
"Are you deaf? My footsteps are so loud! Your head is as hard as a rock; check if I'm bleeding!"
Chen Yansen frowned and cursed as a strong metallic smell filled his nostrils.
Hearing this, Song Yuncheng stood on tiptoe to look and saw a patch of blood seeping from Chen Yansen's lips.
Realizing she had been distracted just now and it was likely her fault, she guiltily shrank her neck, forcing a dry smile: "Just a little scrape; are you okay?"
"Let me take a bite, and you'll know!" Chen Yansen rolled his eyes and retorted in a bad mood.
"I-I won't do it."
Song Yuncheng stepped back, her whole body bristling like a wild cat, instantly full of defensiveness.
"Heh! Who would want to kiss you? Staying out so late without returning to the dorm; do you think my electricity bill comes for free?"
Chen Yansen wiped his mouth with a tissue, then plopped down in Song Yuncheng's chair and casually picked up her notebook.
"Categories: Home, Food, Beauty, Digital Appliances..."
"Sorting Logic: Taobao Monthly Sales, Our Site Daily Sales..."
"..."
The content in the notebook was Song Yuncheng's organized product selection logic; it looked chaotic, hitting here and there without order.
"You're a UI designer; why are you sorting all this out?" Chen Yansen stared at her and asked curiously.
"I know clearly that although you hired me, in terms of design, my gap compared to junior and senior students is quite large; I just thought I should learn more and take on more work."
Song Yuncheng lowered her head, pondered for a long time, and slowly explained.
"I'm not a boss who fires subordinates on a whim." Chen Yansen was slightly stunned, his tone softening.
"I want to earn money through my own abilities." Song Yuncheng lifted her head, her expression firm, carrying a hint of stubbornness.
Bare-faced, a slight redness appeared under her eyes; it seemed that whenever she got excited, a pale pink blush would rise on her face.
Chen Yansen wanted to laugh, but after sighing, he forced himself to hold it back; he pointed to the bench nearby and said, "Sit over here; I'll teach you product selection logic."
Song Yuncheng was stunned for a moment, unable to react immediately; her dazed look was much cuter than usual.
"Do you want to learn?" Chen Yansen raised his voice, urging her.
"Oh, I'll learn." Song Yuncheng obediently sat down, right next to Chen Yansen.
Perhaps because the two were too close, a faint fragrance filled the air.
Chen Yansen took a deep breath and said, "What body wash do you use? It smells nice; I'll buy a bottle for my girlfriend later."
Hearing this, Song Yuncheng's heart trembled, and her skin inexplicably itched; she bit her lip and changed the subject: "I'm ready; teach me product selection."
Chen Yansen smiled, stopped teasing her, and began: "Start with a specific category, like beauty; the first step isn't to look at basic monthly sales, but to understand brand influence; based on market ratings, only then can you get specific to products..."
Afterwards, Chen Yansen taught her several brand grading methods, the popular categories and single items for each season, and how to gradually increase average order value and gross profit based on existing order data.
As Song Yuncheng listened, her gaze unconsciously fell on Chen Yansen's face; looking at his sharp contours and lips that curled slightly as if smiling, her heart suddenly softened, and she thought secretly: If only he didn't have a girlfriend.
Immediately, Song Yuncheng was startled by her own thoughts, shook her head vigorously, and tried hard to focus on Chen Yansen's lecture.
"Tomorrow, try selecting products, write down the product IDs to facilitate observing subsequent sales data; after a few months of grinding, you'll barely be qualified to graduate."
Chen Yansen cleared his throat, took a sip of water, and smiled as he summarized.
"Just barely qualified to graduate?" Song Yuncheng, having listened to him for so long, thought that following this method, she could at least become a category operations manager.
"There are many tricks in this; I'll tell you slowly when you have time; to do category operations well, you need to understand industry trends, brand distribution, even product raw materials and manufacturing processes; do you think you can learn in a few hours what others have accumulated over years?" Chen Yansen pouted and said ruthlessly.
"Chen Yansen, thank you!"
Song Yuncheng looked straight at Chen Yansen, thinking: Why are we around the same age, yet Chen Yansen knows so much? I really want to crack open his head and take a look.
"Since you understand the capabilities required for product selection, during these holiday days, write a recruitment notice; first hire three product operations staff, and you'll be in charge of leading them."
Chen Yansen opened his mouth and assigned Song Yuncheng another task.
"Okay, I'll send it to you as soon as possible." Song Yuncheng agreed cheerfully.
"It's getting late; I'm going back to sleep."
Chen Yansen glanced at the time, stood up, and said goodbye.
"Oh my god! It's so late; I guess I can't go back again." Song Yuncheng saw 23:10 displayed on the computer, slapped her head hard, and immediately collapsed.
"Just make do here for the night." Chen Yansen pointed at the floor of 206 and joked with a smile.
"But I haven't taken a shower yet." Song Yuncheng lowered her head and murmured softly.
"You always sleep at my place; if your boyfriend finds out and causes trouble for me, what then? After all, you said he could beat me ten times over." Chen Yansen refused directly without waiting for her to speak.
"I don't have a boyfriend at all! Did you already know that, which is why you always tease me?"
Song Yuncheng's face turned red; she clenched her small fists and asked aggressively.
"Huh? Really? But I have a girlfriend!" Chen Yansen waved his hand and walked out without looking back.
"Boss, I'm your employee!" Song Yuncheng followed closely behind, saying pitifully.
In the end, the two walked into 0418 together.
After entering and changing into slippers, Chen Yansen asked casually: "Who showers first, you or me?"
"Of course, Boss, you go first."
Song Yuncheng chuckled, walked over to the sofa on her own, skillfully put away the cushions, and tidied up her temporary little nest.
Chen Yansen ignored her, brushing his teeth and taking a shower on his own. Soon, he walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
"Couldn't you put on some pajamas before coming out?" Song Yuncheng glanced at him, saw his tall figure, broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs, with clearly defined muscle lines on his arms, and only spoke after a few seconds of silence.
"This is my house! As long as I feel like it, I can walk around naked," Chen Yansen said disdainfully, then ripped off the bath towel in one motion, causing the other person to scream in fright.
Song Yuncheng covered her face, turned her back, and said, "Chen Yansen, do you believe I'll tell Meng Jie?"
"What would you tell her? That you were sleeping in my room in the middle of the night?" Chen Yansen, wearing huge shorts, grinned wickedly in a reckless manner.
"..."
Song Yuncheng was momentarily speechless, having nothing to say in response.
Seeing that she dared not turn around, Chen Yansen walked up, leaned close to Song Yuncheng's ear, and said, "I'm wearing clothes. If you don't believe me, turn around and look."
Song Yuncheng closed her eyes tightly, shook her head hurriedly, and simply didn't believe him.
"You haven't answered me yet. What body wash did you use? It smells so good." Seeing that she wasn't moving at all, Chen Yansen simply placed his hand on her waist and asked while pressing close to her.
"I... I used soap."
Song Yuncheng panicked, stood frozen in place for a moment, and let Chen Yansen's hand wander over her body.
"Send me the link tomorrow." Chen Yansen stopped while he was ahead, withdrew his hand, turned around, and went back to his room.
Several minutes after Chen Yansen left, Song Yuncheng finally came to her senses, slumped onto the sofa, her pink, pretty face now red as if it could drip blood.
The image of Chen Yansen's hand moving on her waist kept surfacing in her mind; that sensation was like a branding iron.
Logically, she should have felt resistance, but in reality, she didn't.
Song Yuncheng sat alone for a long time until the late-night clock chime sounded, and only then did she rush frantically to the bathroom.
The next day, when Chen Yansen woke up, Song Yuncheng had already tidied the sofa and left early.
Chen Yansen brushed his teeth, washed his face, got dressed neatly, ate breakfast in the cafeteria, and then headed to the Entrepreneurship Park.
He had arranged to meet Wang Zihao to teach him SEO and advertising traffic-driving techniques; as soon as the voting activity ended, they would launch the promotion plan.
Yesterday he told Tang Qingshan that he would get the website to 100,000 DAU by the end of the year; this was not an empty promise, and he truly intended to make this figure the goal for the next stage.
"Morning, Brother Sen!"
"Morning, Boss!"
"Morning, Mr. Chen. I bought an extra breakfast. Have you eaten?"
Several technical staff members who stayed behind greeted him one after another.
Chen Yansen nodded in response, politely declined the breakfast offered by the other person, and walked straight to his seat.
Song Yuncheng across from him was already seated, the mouse clicking away, as if she were drawing or selecting products.
Chen Yansen shouted to Hu Yun in the data team, "Report yesterday's user count and sales revenue."
"Brother Sen, on September 30, our cumulative user registrations were 83,612, with 59,184 new users yesterday. Yesterday's sales revenue was 41,015.3 yuan, with 1,281 orders, and a gross profit of 9,762.8 yuan..."
Hu Yun suddenly stood up and deliberately shouted in a loud voice.
A day's gross profit nearly reached ten thousand!
The order volume also broke the 1,000 mark!
"Thank you all for your efforts. This result is developing faster and stronger than I expected! The next goal: break ten thousand daily orders! Seize it, and everyone gets a raise!"
Chen Yansen clenched his fist, waved it, and announced loudly.
"Brother Sen is awesome!"
Everyone showed joy on their faces and chuckled in agreement; although it was unclear when they would be able to enjoy this pie, at least Chen Yansen was a boss willing to draw pies.
Judging from last month's overtime pay and bonuses, Chen Yansen was a person with reliable credit.
Song Yuncheng looked at the calm and confident Chen Yansen, and her expression gradually became complex.
Before long, Wang Zihao rushed over.
Chen Yansen led him into room 208. The two talked about SEO optimization techniques all morning. Wang Zihao's intelligence was not low, and he learned things quickly; it was only when compared to Wang Ziyan that he seemed somewhat clumsy.
"Long-tail keywords, backlink building, page optimization... Anyway, the core is just these few moves. I've memorized them." Wang Zihao muttered to himself, looking very serious.
Chen Yansen patted his shoulder and said, "No rush. Take your time to study it."
After speaking, he picked up the teacup on the table and walked back to room 206.
And at this moment, the cumulative user registrations had just broken the 100,000 mark!
Ran for a whole day. Thank you, everyone, for your support. Currently, we are just one step away from the top ten in the Urban category!
