Xiu Gou's Taming Record

Chapter 155 Celebration

At 6 p.m. on Saturday, the wind was a little less intense than during the day.

Yu Heng pushed open the restaurant's glass door. The receptionist looked up at him, smiled professionally, and asked, "How many?"

"I booked two private rooms. My surname is Yu."

The receptionist looked down and flipped through her notebook: "Mr. Yu, right? 'Yihe' and 'Xinhe,' upstairs on the right."

Yu Heng and the others followed another waiter inside.

He pushed open the door of "Yihe". The private room was quite spacious, with a round table that could seat ten people. Tableware and tea were already set on the table.

"You're early." Shen Yueling followed him in, took off her bag and hung it on the back of the chair. Bai Xinran closed the door behind her.

"Master, Sister Yue Ling, would you like to sit here?" She walked to the window seat and gently touched the back of the chair with her finger.

"Just sit anywhere." Yu Heng pulled out a chair, sat down, and pushed the menu in front of Shen Yueling. "Take a look and see what you'd like to eat."

"You order, I'm not actually that hungry," Shen Yueling said.

Yu Heng looked at Bai Xinran, who smiled and said, "Master, you can decide."

"They haven't arrived yet?" Yu Heng asked Shen Yueling.

"Yutong said she'll be there soon." Shen Yueling turned her phone screen towards him. "Others... also said in the group chat that they'll be there soon."

Bai Xinran got up and poured Yu Heng a cup of hot tea: "Have some water."

Yu Heng took the teacup and took a sip.

The door to the private room was pushed open, and Zhou Mengqi and Wang Luyu entered one after the other.

"President!" Zhou Mengqi greeted Yu Heng in a clear voice.

Wang Luyu greeted them quietly, her gaze quickly sweeping between Yu Heng and the two girls before pulling out a chair and sitting down.

Zhou Mengqi took off her down jacket and hung it on the back of the chair, revealing a fitted sweater underneath, which was bulging out.

"Have a seat and some water first," Yu Heng glanced at her, "I'll order first."

After ordering, the waiter took the menu and left, and the private room became quiet.

Zhou Mengqi cleared her throat: "President, our video data is still rising."

Yu Heng nodded: "That's normal, but we need to strike while the iron is hot and film the next episode this week."

Zhou Mengqi's eyes lit up: "Sure! I'd skip class to film it!"

Wang Luyu whispered to herself, "I don't have many classes, so any time is fine."

Yu Heng smiled and was about to speak when the door to the private room was pushed open again.

Ning Yutong pushed the door open and walked in. She glanced around at the doorway, and when she saw Yu Heng, her eyelashes trembled slightly. She then looked away and looked at Shen Yueling.

"You're here?" Shen Yueling beckoned to her. "Sit here."

She was referring to the empty seat next to her, with Yu Heng on the other side.

Ning Yutong pursed her lips, walked over and sat down, deliberately leaning her body towards Shen Yueling.

Yu Heng didn't turn to look at her, and continued to say to Zhou Mengqi, "Then let's shoot next week, and coordinate the time later."

"No problem!" Zhou Mengqi's eyes lit up. "President, what topic are we shooting this time?"

"This time we're filming about family relationships," Yu Heng said, taking a sip of tea. "We'll discuss the specifics once the script is ready."

After a while, everyone arrived, and Yu Heng arranged for these familiar faces to stay in his private room.

The waiter started serving the dishes, and when almost all the dishes were served, Yu Heng raised his glass: "Come on, let's celebrate."

Everyone raised their glasses and clinked them together.

"Let me say a few words," he said in a low voice. "Mengqi and Luyu's accounts have become popular, as you've all seen. With this level of fan base, they can already take on commercial orders."

Everyone in the private room turned their attention to it.

"Taking orders means you have income," Yu Heng continued. "If they can do it, so can you."

"Yutong's account now has hundreds of thousands of followers." Yu Heng looked at her. "She doesn't post videos very often. If she posted three to five videos a week, her follower count would increase very quickly."

Ning Yutong lowered her head and gently stirred the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks. When she heard this, she looked up, met his gaze for a moment, and then quickly looked away.

"Hmm..." she replied softly.

"If any of you have ideas," Yu Heng continued, "you can also take action and talk to me privately about your thoughts."

Bai Xinran sat on the other side of Yu Heng and quietly placed a piece of pork rib on his plate.

"President," Wang Luyu began, "how will the money from commercial orders be divided?"

Upon hearing how Wang Luyu would divide the money, Yu Heng didn't feel anything amiss; in fact, he was somewhat satisfied.

Someone has brought the most practical issues to the forefront, which is a good opportunity for him to make a statement.

Shared interests are always the most direct adhesive in a team.

"30/70," Yu Heng said. "The club takes 70%, and you keep the rest. Of course, this is in the early stages. As long as your fan base remains above one million, it will become 50/50, or even as high as 70%."

This percentage was the result of his careful consideration. On the surface, the commission taken by the community is not low, but he provides far more than just an account and creative ideas.

This is different from live streaming. Live streaming only requires a computer and some equipment, while filming costs far more. Although they filmed it themselves, they paid someone to do the post-production editing.

Now that the account is popular, it needs to continue producing content, requiring comprehensive operational support, traffic promotion, and business order integration. Even the hidden costs of mitigating legal and tax risks are all on its side, which is not something a few students who are just starting out can handle on their own.

This ratio serves as both a threshold and a selection criterion.

Those who are willing to accept this and work hard from it are the people he truly wants to cultivate and bind to.

As for this tiered profit-sharing scheme, it serves as both an incentive and a clear value orientation and a commitment to long-term partnership.

He wanted to show these girls that by following him, they could not only have soup now, but also meat in the future.

Wang Luyu asked softly, "What about the tax?"

"The community organization will handle it," Yu Heng said. "What you receive is after tax."

Wang Luyu grinned: "Okay!"

"Alright," Yu Heng smiled, "I won't say anything more, let's eat!"

Everyone started eating, and the conversation flowed freely. The success of this account undoubtedly excited them all.

"President," Zhou Mengqi stood up, raising her glass, "I'd like to toast you."

Yu Heng picked up his wine glass: "You can toast while seated."

"That won't do," Zhou Mengqi insisted on standing. "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have had the chance to make such a popular video."

Yu Heng smiled, stood up, and clinked glasses with her: "You all performed very well too."

They both took a sip of wine, and Zhou Mengqi leaned down very close to him.

She glanced at Ning Yutong over there, who was chatting with Shen Yueling; everyone's attention was elsewhere.

"It's just that the president has been so busy lately, he hasn't had time for me at all. I've been taking my medication for almost two weeks now," she said softly, her eyes filled with seductive charm.

Yu Heng raised an eyebrow at her. She smiled and glanced at her lower abdomen, then looked up and said, "When is the club president going to use it?"

"Wait for me at the villa tonight," Yu Heng said quietly. "Tell Wang Luyu to go back to her room early."
