Chapter 118: Advertising Fee is Only 600,000

In the panel, the part of the city landmark building system task related to social influence started to flash.

It seemed to resonate with what Gao Qiao was saying.

"Could this trigger social influence?" Chen Jianhai's eyes lit up! Every time he needed something, Gao Qiao would proactively deliver it, almost like an impeccable delivery service.

"Of course I agree! Such a good thing, how could I not agree!"

"What do I need to do? How do I cooperate?"

Seeing that Chen Jianhai agreed so readily, Gao Qiao felt a bit more assured and said in a negotiating tone:

"Here's the thing, Boss Chen."

"We still have an issue that we need to discuss with you."

"Although they agreed to advertise for us, it's not a free public service announcement."

"We need to pay some advertising fees..."

Gao Qiao started hesitantly.

Sigh!

Having to ask others for sponsorship money without having money on hand…

It's really not an easy task!

Although it was a discussion, it was essentially a form of begging.

After all, the money was in Chen Jianhai's hands, and whether he gave it or how much depended on his mood.

This money was unlikely to be approved by the principal, so it had to come from Chen Jianhai.

Hearing this, Chen Jianhai finally understood.

These two spoke so highly of metro and bus advertisements for his hotel, but they came to ask him for money!

"How much is the advertising fee?" Chen Jianhai asked anxiously.

Judging by Gao Qiao's difficult expression, Chen Jianhai felt the advertising fee might be quite high.

Gao Qiao opened his mouth and gave a number.

"How much?!"

Chen Jianhai thought he had misheard and asked again.

"672,880 for four weeks," Gao Qiao repeated with difficulty.

But then he quickly added:

"Although the price is a bit high, it's being played on both buses and the metro,"

"And the duration and frequency of play are guaranteed!"

"Compared to other advertisements, the cost-performance ratio is quite high!"

Chen Jianhai breathed a sigh of relief.

Scared me to death!

He thought it would be a huge amount!

But it was only over 600,000, ha~

Not even enough to pay my employees…

"Okay! No problem!"

"I'll cover these advertising fees!"

Chen Jianhai agreed straightforwardly.

It would not only promote the hotel but also advance the system task,

And the cost wasn't too high,

There was no reason to refuse at all!

...

With Chen Jianhai's promise, Gao Qiao and Director Xiao Sun hurried to negotiate the cooperation.

With the funds in place,

Two days later, the promotional video for Lang'ai Hotel was broadcasted in the video advertisements on Nanjing City's metro and buses.

Although it included some footage and mentions of Nanjing City Tourism Vocational School,

It didn't affect the main content, instead adding an academic feel to Lang'ai Hotel.

On the system panel,

Chen Jianhai happily noticed that the yellow progress bar on the hotel upgrade panel showed a significant increase of 0.1%!

The progress values previously gained from the little red house were directly transferred to the new task data.

As a result, in terms of social influence alone,

the system progress was already over 30%.

The remaining parts were the most troubling cultural and environmental influences.

Looking at the two bare progress bars, Chen Jianhai was on the verge of tears!

"What should I do about this..."

Chen Jianhai pulled at his hair, gradually becoming irritable...

...

While Boss Chen was pondering how to enhance the hotel's comprehensive capabilities,

Elsewhere,

A cultural storm called "Thinking Hurricane - Nanjing in History" swept through the historical community.

Li Xun's name quickly topped the front pages of various academic forums,

Many people study history,

And many are travelers.

But to single-handedly trace the entire history of Nanjing with a backpack,

Expressing it emotionally, combining professionalism with literary quality,

And completely narrating this journey,

There were too few people like that!!!

Since Li Xun's first report at the Nanjing City History and Culture Communication Center,

Numerous historical societies, universities, and related institutions invited Li Xun to give reports and lectures.

Since it was vacation time,

Many students, inspired by Li Xun's speech, were eager to trace the historical routes mentioned in his report.

...

"Hello, yes, our tour group departs on the 13th in the morning and arrives at Lang'ai Hotel at 13:13 in the afternoon."

"Our Blue Sky Travel Agency is in partnership with Lang'ai Hotel, so the accommodation price is discounted, rest assured."

"Breakfast is included, and the specific itinerary is on our website. Feel free to contact us with any questions."

"Thank you for calling."

In the office of the president of Blue Sky Travel Agency.

"Yuyou, your sharp insight and quick reaction this time are remarkable!"

"The designed travel route and hotel cooperation have brought us a lot of business."

"Even I didn't expect Lang'ai Hotel to gain such popularity!"

"Many schools we cooperate with are booking trips with us now that they know we're partnered with Lang'ai Hotel."

Ning Yuyou stood in front of the president's desk like a hero, listening to the president's praises.

Although she appeared calm, her hands were excitedly twisting her clothes behind her back.

Blue Sky Travel Agency primarily catered to student groups for holiday travel projects,

Every vacation,

Schools would contact travel agencies to design multiple routes, offering low-cost options for student holidays.

Recently, while responding to a student's inquiry at the school travel agency,

Ning Yuyou accidentally heard Li Xun's lecture.

Upon seeing the words Lang'ai Hotel, she immediately had an idea, noting down Li Xun's lecture schedule,

After attending several of his lectures,

Ning Yuyou designed a student-specific historical and cultural travel route based on Li Xun's content and the hotel's location, working two sleepless nights.

Once this route was posted online, it instantly caught the attention of numerous schools and students.

The travel agency's phone lines were flooded!

Ning Yuyou quickly became a key figure among Blue Sky Travel Agency's guides.

"Yuyou, you've been in charge of coordinating with Lang'ai Hotel."

"Please take the trouble to discuss further with the hotel."

"See if we can negotiate the room rates down a bit more."

The president spoke gently, like a breeze caressing flower petals.

Being too harsh might cause those petals to fall.

He was extraordinarily patient and careful.

Though Ning Yuyou had already secured cooperation with the hotel,

In business, any further reduction in cost is a gain.

If they couldn't lower the price further, the travel agency wouldn't lose out anyway.
