Chapter 43: The Largest Freshman Group
The network wasn't difficult, the price of gigabit fiber wasn't expensive, and Li Yan called the operator to come and install it today after ordering takeout.
Naturally, he paid for urgency, otherwise it wouldn't be so fast.
When the assembly workers arrived at the complex, the guard's phone rang into the house; Li Yan answered and let them in.
Li Yan watched the assembly master spend more than ten minutes installing the computer, then tested it and left.
When the network installation workers arrived in the afternoon, it took an hour to finish the replacement, and Li Yan's work today was finished.
The computer and laptop were placed in the study by Li Yan, which was equivalent to his e-sports room.
There was no fancy layout; Li Yan felt it was very simple and warm, which was the effect he wanted.
Placing his Hasselblad X2D on the side, Li Yan sat on this ergonomic chair left by the landlord, looking at his layout, very satisfied.
Only missing a good chair.
Thinking and doing, opening JD. com, placing an order for a Herman Miller Aeron ergonomic chair, priced at about 15,000.
Clicking to pay, it would be delivered in about three days, the speed was still very fast.
Li Yan was very satisfied; the Marshall speaker placed on the table was bought by Li Yan at the computer city while he was at it, the price wasn't expensive, just a few thousand.
Click to play the song "Quicksand" by David Tao.
"oh~yeah~oh~"
"It's not really..."
Leaning on the chair, Li Yan looked at the information sent by the Ferrari sales, saying that he could go to the bank to handle the loan tomorrow, and the order could be officially placed.
This meant that the arrival of Li Yan's new car had entered the countdown.
And it also meant that Li Yan's rebate was about to arrive; this time it was a loan, and I don't know if the system would calculate it according to the full amount, or just according to the down payment amount.
But no matter which one, it was enough for Li Yan's consumption~
The house was rented, the computer was bought, and the Ferrari SF90 Spider was also in the urgent process.
It seemed that before college started, he had already laid out the "hardware" for his new stage.
But calming down, he realized that there was still a "software" level link that hadn't been done: how to stand firm at Sichuan University, how to be able to call the wind and rain at Sichuan University?
Of course, Sichuan University wasn't an ordinary junior college or undergraduate, but a top 985 university; the resources of such a school were unimaginable to ordinary people.
And Li Yan already had a plan in his heart.
He opened the QQ on his phone, clicked on a few freshman groups and glanced at them, finding that those groups were either limited to a certain major, or small in scale and mixed with people from other schools, not having a super group that could cover all the 2023 freshmen of Sichuan University at all.
Build the largest Sichuan University 2023 freshman group!
As for what's the use?
Li Yan already had a rough idea in his heart.
Opening the QQ client on the computer, clicking the "Create New Group" button, the group type was selected as "Interest—Campus Exchange."
The group name was set as 【Sichuan University 2023 Freshman Group (Official Audit)】.
The simple name was very intuitive, and just looking at it could give people the feeling of "this is a big group, formal enough."
To make the QQ group "top-tier," Li Yan was well-versed in the routines:
He spent money to open the highest level of QQ SVIP; with this, he could unlock larger group capacity and more management functions, such as group announcement pinning, group essence content editing, and invitation customization.
QQ had a group level concept, accelerating upgrades through activity.
Li Yan planned to send more red envelopes and hold activities to make the group upgrade faster, with a shining logo appearing next to the group name.
Plus he chose the "Group Orange Name" effect, making people who entered the group feel that the style was extraordinary.
He first wrote a group announcement: This group is limited to 2023 Sichuan University freshmen; please accept the audit when entering, and you need to provide an admission notice or admission inquiry screenshot.
Refuse outsiders or advertisers from mixing in, and handle them by blacklisting.
Such a strict threshold could guarantee the purity and quality of the group.
Sitting at the desk, looking at the group information ready, he clicked "Create"—in an instant, a freshman group that could accommodate up to 3,000 people was born.
Although there was only one person at the moment, this was the first step of the Long March, and it would be strengthened by promotion and audit later.
Li Yan knew clearly that there were definitely more than 3,000 freshmen in the 2023 class of Sichuan University, and he could create 3 super groups of 3,000 people.
Of course, this was a follow-up matter. It would only be considered after this group was full.
Of course, no matter how good the QQ group was, it was just an empty shell if no one joined.
To pull 3,000 people in the shortest time, he had to spend money decisively.
He first logged into the QQ promotion platform, filled in key information—"Sichuan University 2023 Freshman Group," "Limited to Freshmen," "National Search Push," etc., and checked the paid pinning option.
It cost about 3,000~5,000 yuan per week, and the higher the bid, the higher the ranking.
When prospective freshmen of Sichuan University searched for keywords like "Sichuan University 2023" and "Sichuan University Freshman" on QQ, Li Yan's group would impressively appear first.
University forums in this city or related to Sichuan University were also traffic hotspots.
He contacted the forum administrator and bought out the pinning for two weeks for 3,000 yuan.
The title of the post was written to be catchy: "The Only Official! Sichuan University 2023 Largest Freshman Audit Group," emphasizing "strict audit, many red envelopes, complete information" in the text, and attaching the group number and QR code.
Then he searched for official accounts on the Sichuan University campus, and it was also paid advertising, and the effect was quite good.
To prevent outsiders or advertising parties from mixing in, Li Yan set the following audit process:
•When applying to join the group, you must first fill in verification questions, such as major, college, admission number;
•Administrators randomly check and require uploading a "screenshot of the admission notice" or "admission inquiry result" for simple comparison.
•Those who do not match will be kicked immediately or blacklisted.
Although troublesome, it guaranteed the purity of the group.
Doing so would make the group's reputation louder, "this group is very authentic, no ads," and more and more freshmen would want to join.
Of course, there were no administrators now, and Li Yan could only do it himself for the time being.
Originally, Li Yan's idea was to find Wang Zhen to be an administrator, but now thinking about it, it wasn't very suitable.
Li Yan planned to recruit a few people from the group to be administrators after there were more people in the group.
By the way, he could give a little fee to let them help with the audit.
As for why not recruit girls?
Li Yan felt that in terms of doing this kind of work, boys were more reliable.
Plus Li Yan needed someone to support him after entering school.
Relying on girls alone was not enough.
As for supporting him to do what? Li Yan already had a draft in his heart, which was of course a matter after school started.
School would only start in early September, and it was only July now, time was still early, and Li Yan had enough time to polish his preliminary preparations.
The group had been built, the promotion was roughly finished, and Li Yan began to write some precautions for freshman enrollment. ===== CHAPTER 44 =====
