This celebrity became even more popular after being exposed of having multiple girlfriends-Chapter 52 - Online Store Opening
Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Online Store Opening
Chapter 52 -52 Online Store Opening
This kind of thing was much harder than going to college normally.
The effort and perseverance required were also much greater.
Just thinking about the difficulties made Mo Songlin’s scalp tingle.
His impression of Wu Mu completely changed.
Having the ability and perseverance to study college courses on your own, combined with the impression left before,
Mo Songlin looked at his daughter and said seriously, “If you’ve really thought it through and are determined to be with him, I don’t object. From my current impression, he seems like a good young man.”
Gu Yu also nodded, “I don’t object either, it’s indeed interesting. I’ve never seen anyone like this in our circle.”
Mo Mo’s face turned completely red, “Dad, Mom, what are you doing, Wu Mu and I aren’t even a thing yet!”
…
While Mo Mo’s family was having this heart-to-heart, Wu Mu hung up the phone and switched back to the game.
As expected, he had already lost.
Wu Mu looked at the results page and the messages from teammates criticizing him, muttering, *”Is this my fault? If Mo Mo hadn’t called, I definitely could’ve turned the last wave around.”*
After finally finishing his work, he took a break to play a game, and ended up losing like this.
Wu Mu simply decided not to play anymore and logged into the backend of his online store, “Wu Mu Living,” to upload the product materials sent over from Jiang Nantian.
By paying extra to jump the queue, the agency had already gotten him his business license and completed a series of online store applications.
Jiang Nantian had also managed to produce a small batch of tryout products.
Everything was ready, only the east wind was missing.
The goods Wu Mu uploaded totaled eight or nine items, including cups, towels, handkerchiefs, and a few small ornaments to hang on backpacks, all custom-made in a high-end style that looked very refined.
However refined they may be, they were ultimately industrial products.
At other stores, these things would only cost at most a few dozen, definitely not exceeding a hundred.
And the cost of these items in mass production was mostly just ten to twenty.
Wu Mu got them from Jiang Nantian at a price a few points above cost.
If they were sold normally, he would have to list them with prices in the dozens, like other stores.
But…
After uploading all the goods, Wu Mu opened Weibo and posted a new update.
Wu Evolved, “I opened an online store, personally endorsed by me. Some new products are now available, come and check them out.”
After advertising for himself on Weibo, Wu Mu summoned the system panel and chose to use his previously saved three ten-million-Performance-Card.
All the performance projects under his name that could be used jumped out.
The “Wu Mu Living” online store that he had just advertised was prominently listed.
[Use a Performance Card on “Wu Mu Living”?]
[Yes.]
…
Upon receiving the information from his subordinate manager, Jiang Nantian knew that Wu Mu’s online store had opened, and he was quite curious as he clicked on the link sent by the manager, wanting to see what Wu Mu’s online store looked like.
After clicking, the first impression was okay.
Although it was clear that it was a bought template design, the quality wasn’t bad, and combined with Wu Mu’s personal image, it did have a bit of a refined feel.
Jiang Nantian nodded and clicked on the store’s product page.
A row of products appeared before him.
The top item was a ceramic cup painted with a landscape design, priced at 219 yuan.
219?
Not bad.
Jiang Nantian nodded, finding that Wu Mu’s pricing seemed alright. He remembered that the cost of this cup seemed to be 219?
Huh, why was this guy selling at cost price?
Wait…
219 yuan!?
Jiang Nantian’s mind went blank for a moment, looking at the screen in astonishment.
He quickly pulled out the report sent by his subordinate manager before and directly flipped to the section on product costs.
Ceramic cup with landscape painting, shipment price 21.9 yuan.
21.9 yuan…
This guy was selling at ten times their shipment price!?
And it wasn’t just this cup; there were other goods too!
Vintage pure cotton handkerchief, shipment price 11.9 yuan, product price 119 yuan.
Sandalwood peace pendant, shipment price 9.9 yuan, product price 99 yuan.
…
Jiang Nantian, “…”
“What an absurd mess, who prices like this to sell goods.”
Jiang Nantian no longer wanted to discuss anything with Wu Mu. He felt this guy was truly unreliable.
He even suspected whether Wu Mu had any idea how to price products at all, or if he thought that the higher the profit, the more money he would make.
A new store setting prices at ten times higher right off the bat, was this a serious business attitude?
Even when celebrities fleece their fans, it’s not this exaggerated.
Ten times the profit…
*Wasn’t this just treating people like fools?*
*Was it only brainless people who would buy this stuff?*
Not only did Jiang Nantian feel that Wu Mu was making a fuss, but also under Wu Mu’s Weibo, those users who had already clicked through the link to see the products were fiercely criticizing him.
“Wu, are you out of your mind? A cup for over 200?”
“Hilarious, is this guy trying to fleece his fans? At this price, it’s not even fleecing anymore; it’s slicing the roots off the fans!”
“Damn, stuff costing dozens elsewhere, and Wu is selling it for a hundred or two!”
“You bastard, could you just drop dead! I was starting to have a better impression of you, and then you pull this crap!”
“I suspect Wu thinks he’s still a top star with brainless fans supporting him unconditionally.”
“Ha, even back in the day, seeing those prices, no brainless fan would still be brainless. It’s too shameless.”
*It was so ridiculous, really, just a quick search for similar products and a price comparison, and you’d see how exaggerated Wu Mu’s pricing was.*
*It’s not like celebrities opening stores is unheard of, many try to cash in on their popularity.*
*But they usually just add a little price on similar tier products, none are as outrageous as Wu Mu.*

*Even if not knowing the costs of these items, based just on the price being five or six times higher than similar items at other stores, you could tell how ridiculous the profit margins were.*
*Who did he expect to foot the bill at such prices?*
*Such a mind-blowing move, even in the past before he fell from grace, people would criticize him to death, let alone now with his current situation.*
*Everyone simply took Wu Mu as a joke.*
*They thought he must’ve lost so much money that his brain was fried.*
Due to the explosive and absurd nature of this move, the news about Wu Mu’s new online store spread rapidly.
Many people took this as a joke and posted it in various groups.
Within just a few minutes, thousands of comments flooded his new Weibo post.
Without exception, all were criticisms of him.
No one believed anything from Wu Mu’s store could sell.
On Wu Mu’s end, however, he was not at all worried. Criticize all they want, the target customers for his products were never those who criticized.
With the system on his side, so what if he was slicing the roots?
He had already seen on the system page that the Performance Card value was gradually being realized.
