It's all his fault for being an artist!

Chapter 47 Immediate Results: Buying a Computer in Yuhang

Respond and discuss.

The two-pronged approach of treatment boosted traffic, and the most direct impact was that the previously slowed-up articles were brought back up, ranking tenth on the list.

In the absence of a big data pool.

Popular posts that maintain steady growth in data over a week are most often emotional anecdotes or captivating, dramatic encounters, and are mostly narrative in nature.

Don't you remember the ten legendary posts on Tieba back then? The vibrant energy and the flourishing of all things are still vivid in my mind!

The same applies to forums.

Among the many storytelling posts, his cold, commercial post stood out as particularly out of place.

On the other hand, this is enough to prove the effectiveness of the "hype".

Cheng Wang seized this rare opportunity to establish his personal brand.

Many of the new replies to the article requests came from both new and old friends, all of whom specifically requested to try their hand at this new kind of writing.

You shouldn't meet someone too amazing when you're young, otherwise you'll never forget them. That's probably the best way to describe such a situation.

The results were quite impressive, so Cheng Wang relaxed the conditions slightly and decided to focus on making quick money and continuing marketing. He chose the latter again and did not take advantage of the situation to raise the commission rate.

You have to cast a long line to catch a big fish!

Marketing and promotion involve buying traffic and advertising on various online platforms, but it still costs money.

More finished product photos not only make money, but also circulate within a small circle, accurately targeting the audience. Why not?

However, he added a supplementary explanation to the commissioners he had successfully negotiated with: if the artwork were to be painted to the quality of a personal portfolio, it would be considered a commercial project, and he did not recommend completely replicating that standard.

If you just want to try animation-style drawing, you can retain the essence and present it with simpler visual effects.

I put my heart and soul into every single one, striving for the highest quality. If I charge too little, it won't be worth it for me.

He roughly estimated that by slightly padding his sales in the forum's commissioned writing circle, he could still reach a saturated demand in a short period of time.

We cannot afford to suffer losses; we must achieve both fame and fortune.

Hey!

You can make money while standing up!

The art community has a peculiar characteristic: mutual support among peers. In most cases, it's not about money, since the community's attitude towards money is generally quite lenient.

Rather than who earns more, the real conflict of interest lies in the quality competition among similar artists.

Cheng Wang's extended track has no competitors; it belongs exclusively to him. Even imitators have to call him "Master Zuo Wangdao" and seek his verbal permission.

Even with fierce competition in quality and price, aspiring artists generally don't feel pressured; in fact, they take pride in securing commissions and paying for them.

The logic of commissioned freelance writing is completely opposite to that of the commercial system.

Taking advantage of his time off at home, Cheng Wang spent several days cleaning up a large number of manuscripts.

Even after deducting the amount spent on installing a water heater at home, his personal savings are still about to exceed five figures.

He used the savings to order a laptop online.

At that time, there was no concept of gaming laptops. In the office field, Apple's entire product suite was elevated to a pedestal by various parties.

Cheng Wang wasn't very interested in expensive, overpriced products; he knew they were just a waste of money.

Software that is not part of their own system ecosystem is highly unwelcome, as it is prone to crashing and will be rendered obsolete.

There's only one requirement: more memory is all that's needed.

Nearly 5000 yuan was deducted from the price of just one computer.

In the initial stage of starting a business, it's all worth the effort if you grit your teeth and persevere!

Then, the next step.

He consulted with Lin Qin and Cheng Jianhua about his already planned decision.

"Mom and Dad, I'm planning to move to Yuhang City for a while."

At the dinner table, Cheng Wang told them about this idea.

Lin Qin's reaction was exactly what he expected.

She frowned and asked, "What are you doing? Aren't you supposed to be at home preparing for the college entrance exam? Aren't you going to Teacher Wang's place?"

"The tutor Lao Wang found for me isn't in Shanghai, so I have to go there for training."

When high school students move to other cities, their demands are relatively rare, and the tactic of invoking a famous name is not very effective.

Cheng Wang simply dialed the phone to verify with Wang Huiming.

"Oh yes, that's right. My classmate is a teacher at the Yuhang Academy of Fine Arts. He has to follow the school's holiday schedule and won't be able to return to Shanghai until winter break. You probably haven't started your holiday yet, right? Are you going to see him now?"

"I took leave and am discussing with my parents about renting a place in Yuhang for a short period of time to warm up for the college entrance exam."

"Okay, let me know once you've finalized things at home. I'll call Teacher Sun and arrange a time."

"Okay, Lao Wang."

beep...

The phone hangs up.

Cheng Wang looked at his parents, his expression serious and methodical, and said, "The entrance exam for the Yuhang Academy of Fine Arts is divided into two rounds. I went through the preliminary exam with Teacher Sun, so there shouldn't be any problems."

"The re-examination is quite different from the joint entrance examination. It will be more design-oriented. I hope to get professional answers on how to score well."

"Before the entrance exam for the Yuhang Academy of Fine Arts, I have other entrance exams to take. When all the exams are combined, I may not have time to focus on reviewing the key points. It's better to figure things out as early as possible."

With this explanation, Cheng Lin and the other man could roughly understand and accept the reasoning.

However, Lin Qin still expressed her concerns, saying, "Short-term rentals aren't easy to find, and your husband and I can't possibly quit our jobs and take time off to go with you. How will you manage your daily life?"

"Your son has been learning to cook since he was little, what's the use of talking about this? He'll definitely be fine." Cheng Jianhua's considerations were clearly different from Lin Qin's.

"Chengwang, is this Teacher Sun? Have you looked into where the classes will be held, how long the classes will last, and how the tuition will be calculated?"

Cheng Wang said, "I'll look near the art academy. Teacher Sun himself said there's no tuition fee. Just get his feedback after you finish the painting. I'm planning to ask Lao Wang to give him a red envelope as a token of my appreciation."

Cheng Jianhua chuckled: "You little rascal, you've got a real knack for getting things done, just like your old man."

Lin Qin was even more puzzled and asked the question again.

"Where would you get the money to give out red envelopes? And bonuses again?"

bonus?

Cheng Wang remembered that he had used this as an excuse before.

He was thinking about how to make a reasonable excuse.

Cheng Jianhua waved his hand dismissively, saying, "How come you didn't understand? You accountant, your son is asking you for money!"

Should I go into battle with my son?

You really are my dad, aren't you!

Oh, that's true.

Cheng Wang secretly winked at his old man, expressing his deep admiration.

Upon receiving the coded message, Cheng Jianhua became even more boastful: "Rental costs money, living expenses cost money, and my usual pocket money is far from enough."

"I think the boy has thought things through quite thoroughly this time, unlike before when he just made decisions on a whim. As boys grow up, they should go out and see the world more often. It's good for them."

"Chengwang, Dad supports you!"

Lin Qin pondered deeply.

"That's true. Luckily, Yuhang isn't far away, so it's convenient for us to go there on weekends."

Cheng Wang immediately replied, "No problem, leaders are welcome to inspect our work at any time."

Cheng Jianhua waved his hand dismissively: "I'll go with him and arrange where he'll stay. You can rest assured about that, right?"

Lin Qin nodded and said, "Okay, then that's fine. I'll go to the bank later to transfer the money."

"it is good."

"What's so great about you?" Lin Qin glared at Cheng Jianhua, then immediately reverted to her usual temperament.

"It's not like it was transferred to you. You're trying to skim off the top? No way!"
