Love? The Reborn Me Just Wants to Obtain Rewards-Chapter 884 - 368 Deafening Wake-up Call_3

A sense of accomplishment, a sense of recognition, a sense of pride — all of these are far more enduring than mere sensory stimulation.

Now a new question arises: whether it’s women’s clothing or cosmetics, if I don’t buy them from you, Zhang Dayi, or you, Li Jiaqi, but instead go to a physical store or another seller, does it matter?

Not much, really. People are just used to shopping with you, but it’s not like they absolutely have to.

So your core competitive strength, relatively speaking, is somewhat weak.

On the same track, every newcomer competes, every host has a unique skillset, and the gap between Taobao’s top ten hosts and the two of you isn’t that significant. That’s why you’re so exhausted, why you’re so tense.

But Ziqi’s core competitive strength is genuinely unique across multiple relevant tracks.

I bring this up not to compare her to you but to help you understand what fans really are, the specific attributes of your fans, and how to harness their power.

Ziqi undoubtedly has the highest number of fans because her audience is the broadest and can evoke emotional resonance in anyone.

Her play count on YouTube even exceeds her local numbers.

Moreover, her fan loyalty is the strongest, as the imitators in the same track produce video content with an obvious gap in quality. She has no competitors.

However, let me emphasize this: her monetization is the hardest, the most cautious, and the most labor-intensive.

If she doesn’t achieve absolute perfection, I wouldn’t allow any product bearing the name ’Li Ziqi’ to appear on the market.

Jiaqi’s model is the easiest to monetize and the quickest to scale.

Because you’re essentially a proxy buyer, not someone offering emotional engagement, just delivering practical benefits to those in need.

As long as you build a solid reputation, you can attract an immense consumer base.

Conversely, a large base of sales data can continue driving up your bargaining power, enabling you to secure lower prices and achieve a virtuous cycle. freewёbnoνel.com

Your problem, though, is the lowest fan loyalty. When you stop being cost-effective, stop being professional, stop thinking from their perspective, fans won’t hesitate to abandon you.

Sister Yi, you fall somewhere in between them.

Fans are loyal, but expanding your scale isn’t easy.

Maintaining a good reputation is challenging, and destroying it is far too simple.

Selling women’s clothing doesn’t monetize quickly, and the costs are harder to manage. But you can leverage your personal influence to drive brand growth, seamlessly blending your individual celebrity status with your business.

You three have three tracks, each with its own advantages and drawbacks.

As the words settled, the courtyard fell silent for a long time.

In the clean night sky, the stars stretched vast and boundless.

Beneath a sky full of twinkling stars, everyone quieted their minds, beginning to reflect on their path and their future from a philosophical perspective.

Each person raised their own doubts from their personal standpoint, trying hard to clarify and understand the extraordinary relationships between influencers and fans.

After fully integrating these reflections with their own experiences, the courtyard returned once again to its stillness.

After a long while, Su Huai sipped his tea and leisurely asked, "So, do you understand now? Why I designed Xingyu the way it is, why I proposed the theory of the traffic pool?"

Zhang Dayi reacted first: "Risk-resistance capability?"

"Close, but the more accurate term would be the organic integration of risk management and traffic management."

Su Huai arranged the teacups into a small circle, then lifted the teapot and poured tea into each.

He explained slowly, "When we gather top hosts from multiple tracks onto a single platform, forming a stable cooperative and symbiotic relationship, it means that the individual risks of each person are diluted.

Jiaqi’s biggest risk isn’t actually low fan loyalty — that can only be ranked as the second issue.

The true and most fundamental conflict lies in balancing low prices and profitability.

Take L’Oréal as an example: some oil product has a factory price of 129 yuan and a terminal price of 179 yuan. That 50 yuan is the profit for various channels in between.

Now, Jiaqi wants to promote it, bargaining with L’Oréal to bring the price down to 119 yuan. Factoring in our costs, selling at 129 yuan breaks even, selling at 139 yuan earns a little profit, and selling at 149 yuan starts to make it worthwhile.

But if you sell at 149 yuan, compared to smaller-scale hosts, do you still have an advantage?

Not necessarily.

Others might only sell two hundred units, source at 149 yuan but take a loss selling at 99 yuan just to promote their low-price image.

Their losses aren’t much, but once Jiaqi’s low-price capability is undermined and her reputation questioned, the resulting trouble will be enormous.

So Jiaqi, you need to demand one condition from the manufacturer — that only you can sell their product below the factory price across the entire online market, including their own sales channels.

Alright, the manufacturer agrees, and your all-time lowest price reputation is preserved.

A new problem arises: since you’re committed to selling at a low price, where does the profit come from?

Could we push the factory price down to 109 yuan?

Then the manufacturer might prefer to sell directly on their own and gradually grind out results.

Could you think of ways to save costs?

Where could you cut corners?

Jiaqi, Sister Yi, Ziqi — think carefully about how this issue can be resolved."

The three of them, along with Gu, sank into deep thought.

After deliberating for a while, Li Jiaqi was the first to reply: "I won’t earn from this, just sell at a loss to boost popularity, then compensate with a high-margin product where pricing isn’t so transparent."

Zhang Dayi responded: "Ask L’Oréal for some surplus inventory of slow-moving products at ultra-low prices, then bundle the two together to balance the profit."

Li Ziqi said earnestly: "Could we further process the product to fundamentally enhance its added value?"
