Chapter 302: Becoming an Instant Hit! (1/2)

Not in their wildest dreams could anyone have expected such a tremendous profit when Starnet opened up to the outside world. None of the businesses failed to double their turnover in a single day, some even earned even six to seven times their normal yield.

Among them, hotels and restaurants made the most. The restaurants won in the traffic flow, while the hotels were full despite the price being raised several times.

The Babel Merchant House was very decisive when they calculated and produced nearly a hundred bets overnight with the information Bai Xiaofei provided them. Although they hadn’t officially opened yet, they had already attracted a large wave of people who came to inspect. As long as the broadcast ended tonight, this wave of people would turn into a considerable source of income.

However, in the entire academy, the one earning the most wasn’t businesses, but the Demon of Illusions. At Bai Xiaofei’s suggestion, 80% of the faculty had been renovated into a hotel, and it was even the most expensive hotel in Starnet.

Not only because all the hotels were already full, but also because of Bai Xiaofei’s advertisement: ‘All the staff and contestants will reside at the Demon of Illusions during the competition. Come for a stay, and you’ll have the chance to see them at any moment!’

This was a fatal attraction for the guests who came for the Blossom Ranking event, even if it was only just a gimmick by Bai Xiaofei. In fact, all guest rooms were separate from the area where the competition personnel stayed.

Aside from acting as a place to stay, the Demon of Illusions also opened a temporary, super large kitchen for all of its guests, the chefs of which were all transferred from the headquarters of the Thousand Aroma Restaurant. This was one of the conditions that Lu Lingyun and Qian Chonglou had agreed upon, a win-win agreement. With this, the Thousand Aroma Restaurant could publicize itself while the Demon of Illusions gained another way to rake it in.

Originally Qian Chonglou had wanted a piece of the pie, but Liu Lingyun had sternly rejected him.

What a joke. You just don’t qualify for such a demand, alright?

In that negotiation, Qian Chonglou had been tightly suppressed and had to agree with whatever requirements Liu Lingyun had.

Finally, there was also Chu Qingtian who couldn’t close his mouth from laughing. The temporary campus hotel becoming a money-collecting tool, plus the previous share of investment and various profits to come would definitely earn Starnet more than it had in the past several years combined. And this achievement would be put under his name, Chu Qingtian! It was impossible not to be happy. If Chu Qiantian could, he would snatch Bai Xiaofei for a warm hug and lots of kisses.

And all that so far was only the beginning.

After one night of processing from the recording team, all the videos shot in the venue during the day were condensed into a three-hour quality video!

The next day, after using the whole morning to advertise around the academy, Bai Xiaofei started to organize people to sell tickets in the afternoon. There were three broadcasting spots: the Thousand Aroma Restaurant, the Blossom Pavilion, and the Demon of Illusions.

“With the might never before seen from our ten great mentors of the Phoenix Cry Pavilion, five hundred future stars have successfully found their teams! As one hundred and one teams are about to compete on the stage, come get to know your goddess in advance!”

This slogan was chanted over and over again at all ticket points. The first batch of 5,000 tickets was sold out in less than three hours! Among them, the Thousand Fragrance Restaurant would accommodate 200 people, the Blossom Pavilion 600 people, and the remaining 4200 people would be welcomed by the Demon of Illusions. The jittery staff in the three places were busy making preparations. Tonight's reception was a challenge for them all, a challenge accompanied by terrifying benefits!

In short, Starnet had a restless entire day, and basically no one was able to remain calm, be it the guests or the students and teachers!

The veil of night fell in this restlessness.

Those who bought the tickets arrived early to their broadcasting point. The tickets in their hands could be exchanged for a Blossom Ticket after the broadcast.

The outsiders didn’t know what a Blossom Ticket was at first, but after hearing the explanation from the students, everyone was delighted.

This is the same as free money!
