Every garment must be tried on to check the effect—if you don’t understand the product as an operator, what’s the difference between you and a cook who can’t stir-fry?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Saturday, the second floor of the startup park was as usual filled with dozens of people; the Metersbonwe brand team was about to launch, and everyone was frantically preparing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen stood at the door of Room 206 and called out to the neighboring room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it, Sen-ge! Should we cut open the down jackets to check if the filling’s fake?” Xu Kun held up a men’s vest and asked seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holy shit, are you this meticulous?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen paused, glanced at Xu Kun again, then replied after a moment: “There’s a seamstress near Ximen—go get her. She can inspect the fabric without ruining the garments.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Kun was right—maybe they were passing off black duck down as white duck down, or white duck down as white goose down. If real problems arose, it would damage Fox Tao ’s user experience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’ll finish sorting this batch of samples and head over right away.” Xu Kun nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the door, four parcels, each half a person’s height, were piled up—all samples sent by Metersbonwe, dozens of scattered items blocking the entrance to Room 208 completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen grunted, turned back to his seat, and called out to Wang Zihao: “Have you decided which of the A, B, or C asset groups to use?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sen-ge, go with group B. It has the highest click-through and conversion rates. Even though the cost is higher, the ROI is definitely the best.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Zihao pointed at the data on the ad backend while holding his laptop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fine, pick group B! If daily active users don’t break a million on the 28th, I’m docking your bonus.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen threatened without mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Relax! In the past few days, the 0-yuan bargaining campaign added four new product categories, and daily new user growth hit 500,000—I’ll guarantee the other half million.” Wang Zihao spoke with full confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In recent days, Chen Yansen’s interview video had gone viral, bringing in plenty of organic users for Fox Tao . Combined with returning users surpassing 200,000, Wang Zihao’s pressure had dropped sharply. With a budget of over a million, how could he fail to attract users?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bo-bo, how’s the order system working? Any bugs affecting efficiency during export or import? If so, fix it with Zhuang Rui immediately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen nodded slightly and waved to Meng Xibo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There are some issues—probably due to incompatible tables. I’ve talked to Brother Rui; he’ll fix it tomorrow.” Meng Xibo stood up to answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, thanks!” Chen Yansen replied casually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of participants in the 0-yuan bargaining campaign kept rising, and daily successful orders climbed steadily—from a few hundred at first to over 4,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although most users who succeeded in bargaining bought low-value items like tissue paper, milk, and cooking oil, daily cost consumption was nearing 150,000 yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Order export and import tasks had been transferred from operations to customer service. Fortunately, the order system launched on time—otherwise, even hiring ten more customer service staff wouldn’t have been enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing his current tasks, Chen Yansen leaned back in his chair to rest. He wasn’t joking with Min Jie—he really would deliver a million visitors, aiming to make the “Brand Team” concept explode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wanted other brands and distributors to envy him, so he could later expand Fox Tao ’s merchant and even supply chain resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across from him, Song Yuncheng lowered his head, catching only Chen Yansen’s profile—the sharp jawline covered in a stubble of black beard, clearly he’d overslept and forgotten to shave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since when had Song Yuncheng found himself constantly glancing at Chen Yansen? Looking made him angry; not looking left him empty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen closed his eyes for a brief nap, then wandered into Cao Dahua’s office. The two sipped tea and chatted idly, enjoying an unusually relaxed day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over this period, their relationship had grown as close as father and son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen often spoke disrespectfully, scolding Cao Dahua like a son—but Cao Dahua didn’t mind. Instead, he found Chen Yansen unique, mature, and steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he weren’t over twenty years older than Chen Yansen, he’d seriously consider adopting him as a younger brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Old Cao, your job’s great—sipping tea and slacking off like a god.” Chen Yansen sipped his tea and teased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah! Jealous, kid? Money’s enough if it covers your needs. Those billionaires aren’t living as well as me—just watching pretty college girls every day, you’ll easily live to ninety-nine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After closing the door, Cao Dahua dropped his teacher’s pretense, slinging an arm around Chen Yansen’s shoulders, laughing and joking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither was a proper teacher, nor a proper student—yet they got along perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Metersbonwe sent over a batch of samples—go pick some later and choose a few for our big niece.” Chen Yansen volunteered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You bastard! My daughter’s a year older than you—do you really want to be her uncle?” Cao Dahua scolded with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, Old Cao, that hurts. Aren’t we ageless friends? Why can’t your daughter be my big niece? Are you planning to keep things separate—I call you brother, and your daughter calls me younger brother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen crossed his legs, sipped his tea, and kept joking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I give up! I’ll go up later and take a look.” Cao Dahua laughed helplessly, accepting the gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen smiled. Relationships require reciprocity—give small, cheap favors generously; you never know when they’ll bring a surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He checked the time—ten minutes left. He had a movie date with Meng Jie, so he stood to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, he casually took a box of Zhan’s peach cookies from Cao Dahua’s desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t like them—but Meng Jie did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cao Dahua spat after Chen Yansen’s retreating back, muttering inside: “This kid really thinks he’s my little brother—takes my food and drink like it’s his own.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With any other student, he’d have been cold and stern—but with Chen Yansen, everything about him looked right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Reminds me of myself when I was young. His looks? Even worse than mine back then.” Cao Dahua sighed softly, adding quietly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five days later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Fox Tao  users logged onto the site, they found a new banner above the product feed: “Metersbonwe 11.28 Brand Sale Day”—red and yellow, eye-catching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Users who clicked into the event page were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their first thought: the platform must’ve messed up the pricing and cashback ratios!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A short-sleeve T-shirt: price 79 yuan, cashback 71.1 yuan, final price 7.9 yuan—limited to 2,000 pieces!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fleece hoodie: price 159 yuan, cashback 143.1 yuan, final price 15.9 yuan—limited to 1,000 pieces!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A down jacket: price 299 yuan, cashback 269.1 yuan, final price 29.9 yuan—limited to 1,000 pieces!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second row of products on the page had weaker discounts, but a 99-yuan shirt dropped to just 49 yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further down, subcategories like outerwear, T-shirts, sweaters, casual pants, jeans, cotton-padded coats, and down jackets were split into over a dozen floors, each with twenty items carefully selected by operations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the far right of each floor, hyperlinks allowed users to jump to secondary event pages with even more products to browse and choose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Throughout the entire browsing experience, final prices were uniformly half-price!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In first- and second-tier cities, Metersbonwe was no longer a mainstream fast-fashion brand—but it still held strong status in third-tier and lower cities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the hit drama “Let’s Go Watch the Meteor Shower,” many still regarded Metersbonwe as a premium brand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Fox Tao  teamed up with Metersbonwe to launch this special event—with discounts from one to five tenths—shattering users’ sense of value instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, these prices were practically free!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn! Why can’t I buy this?!” In a small inland town, Li Wei, who ran a Taobao proxy service, frantically clicked his mouse—but the link wouldn’t open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After struggling for a while, he noticed the countdown on the product image.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit! It only goes live on Sunday—will I even get one? Such a golden chance—I can’t miss it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei’s eyes darted—he had an idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He screenshot the Fox Tao  event page, then altered the cashback amount and final price—changing the half-price items to 40% off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After editing, he rushed to a print shop and told the owner to enlarge the image tenfold—he planned to paste it on his shop’s front door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow! Li Boss, what’s this promotion? Clothes are cheap—Metersbonwe’s a big brand, right? You’re selling these?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The print shop owner handed him a cigarette, casually asking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Wei wouldn’t reveal his profit secret—he smiled, took the smoke, and said: “Metersbonwe’s official flagship store—would they sell fakes? Who’d they sell real ones to?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh! That’s great! My son loves this brand—Boss Zhang, can you get me a few?” The print shop owner instantly felt reassured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure thing! Since we’re so familiar, I won’t charge you a proxy fee.” Li Wei pretended to be generous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thanks, Li Boss—I’ll give you a discount!” The print shop owner smiled happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unaware that for every 100-yuan coat he bought, Li Wei made a 10-yuan profit—he didn’t care about the few yuan in proxy fees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Li Wei, countless shady proxies were already sharpening their knives, ready to profit big before the event started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the internet, clever scalpers were also preparing—buying items just to resell them on secondhand sites for profit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, regular users remained Fox Tao ’s core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this sincere brand event, users subconsciously upgraded their perception of Fox Tao .\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, if users only bought 9.9 to 19.9-yuan items on the platform, they’d think it was low-end—and wouldn’t consider it for cosmetics or appliances later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if the product quality improved and users saw only premium brands, their trust in the platform would rise rapidly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Chen Yansen’s transformation strategy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Low-end guide sites were boring and had very low ceilings. Only with his own merchant resources and product positioning could Fox Tao  become a true e-commerce product.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two days passed in a flash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At 10 a.m. on the 28th, the three discounted items sold out in just three minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hu Li, release tomorrow’s 10 a.m. bestsellers to keep attracting users.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen leaned on his desk and instructed Hu Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sen-ge, it’s been ten minutes—orders are at 8,743. Excluding the 4,000 limited bestsellers, the rest are all half-price regular items.” Hu Yun reported promptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Buyers these days are so easy to fool—no, actually, they’re just innocent.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Yansen blinked, then smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In ten years, for brands like Metersbonwe, half-price would be normal—only two or three tenths off would truly attract users.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other side, Min Jie and his operations team sat glued to their computers, the constant “ding-dong—ding-dong” of order notifications ringing in their ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Min Zong, orders from Fox Tao  as of 11 a.m. total 26,137, with sales reaching 3.607 million yuan.” An operator shouted from the backend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He actually pulled it off? 3.6 million in one hour—by the end of the day, he’ll sell 20 million!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Min Jie stared in disbelief, muttering to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During Taobao’s Double Eleven, Metersbonwe’s total store sales were only 750,000 yuan—barely making the top ten fashion brands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Set the SKUs and inventory properly—if stock runs low, replenish immediately!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Min Jie excitedly pulled out his phone to call Chen Yansen, while still reminding his team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1902,"2026-06-19T19:17:18.227Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","d7cc3dbe391d49369f8a5ffb47bb18183f6311c523137c88bbe7fb64f6ccc746","i-get-stronger-every-payday-with-one-billion-emp-chapter-72","i-get-stronger-every-payday-with-one-billion-emp-chapter-70",387,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-get-stronger-every-payday-with-one-billion-emp-cover.jpg"]
