Chapter 337 - 239: The Internet’s Number One Female Bootlicker

Chapter 337: Chapter 239: The Internet’s Number One Female Bootlicker

She looked a little smug, swaying gently. "It’s super popular right now. They’re all sold out."

"Just picture Messi wearing this jersey, plowing through all defenses."

"Or Aguero in this, with his chest hair showing."

*Hiss...*

Lin Chu said with a laugh.

The women couldn’t hold back their laughter, their bodies shaking gracefully.

Since they had business to discuss, the two of them went up to a private room on the second floor.

After entering, they sat down facing each other.

Li Ke’er noticed Lin Chu’s gaze fixed on her bare shoulders. She was at a loss for words but also wanted to laugh.

"Have you seen enough?"

Lin Chu clicked his tongue and lit a cigarette. "A man definitely designed this outfit. Tsk, he really gets what men want."

"Alright, let’s talk business."

"How many followers do you have on Weibo right now?"

’He hadn’t done his homework on this beforehand. He couldn’t be bothered to look it up, nor did he want to verify the numbers. After all, they could have been bought. Since he had already arranged to meet her, he might as well just ask directly.’

This topic...

Li Ke’er pursed her lips slightly and said, a little unnaturally, "Six hundred thirty thousand. On Xiaohongshu, I have a few, over eighty thousand. On Douyin, I have four hundred sixty thousand."

She had, of course, been following Lin Chu’s livestreams and knew that he was now considered a "major influencer."

’With five million followers, how could he not be a major influencer?’

’Even if they were all bought with money.’

’But throwing money at it is a skill in itself.’

"Why do you only have that many?"

For a moment, Lin Chu was a bit disappointed that her status wasn’t higher.

’But, since he was just starting this publicity campaign, he could probably hire an even bigger female star, but she might not be willing.’

’Oh well, she’ll have to do for now.’

"The persona I’ve designed for you for now is... a bootlicker."

"On all your social media accounts and platforms, you’ll chase me relentlessly, creating a deeply devoted image. What do you think?"

Lin Chu looked her in the eye and said bluntly.

’Hold it in... can’t laugh.’

’Without a doubt, this was the correct way to manufacture a scandal.’

’After all, the viewers had seen all sorts of convoluted schemes. This, in contrast, would seem fresh.’

Li Ke’er: ???

She was stunned.

She felt as if she’d been clubbed over the head, completely dazed.

’What kind of publicity stunt is this? What kind of scandal?’

"But..."

She stared at Lin Chu, utterly speechless.

"It’s like this. Look, faking a hotel tryst is too cliché. Faking a pregnancy? You’re not pregnant. Faking an affair, with you as the Mistress? That’s too concrete, not realistic, and it would damage your image. So, this is the route I’ve meticulously designed."

"Think about it. Most champions of pure love are guys. You, a girl, being so pure and devoted, chasing a guy relentlessly—for starters, you’ll max out your favorability with the male audience, right? As for female fans, the main selling point is the surprise, the contrast. Then I’ll torment you a bit, and you’ll get a ton of sympathy points alone."

"Right now, there are a lot of ’Number One Female Playboys’ online, but who’s ever heard of the ’Number One Female Bootlicker’? That’s what makes you unique!"

Lin Chu explained with a perfectly straight face.

’Hold it in!’

’Don’t laugh!’

Of course, Lin Chu wasn’t just messing with her. He had genuinely given this path a lot of thought.

’What "female bootlicker"!’

’If this really works, she won’t be a bootlicker, she’ll be the "nation’s little sister"!’

’The internet’s Number One Little Sister!’

’In the current online climate, her public appeal would be maxed out!’

Li Ke’er looked at Lin Chu’s serious expression and confident tone. Mulling over his logic, she found herself somewhat swayed.

’You can play it like that?’

She had to admit, there was some sense in what Lin Chu was saying.

Although it would damage her "social image," making her seem like a bootlicker, it was actually a good path for her public persona.

And it was a unique niche.

’The internet’s Number One Female Bootlicker!’

"Ah, that sounds so awful. I..."

Li Ke’er was still hesitant.

"Once the hype builds, I’ll use this persona to tailor-make a TV series for you. A movie would work too. I’ll invest. The main theme will be the ’internet’s number one little sister,’ the ultimate doting girlfriend, a good-luck-charm of a wife, and a model for modern women."

"How about it?"

Lin Chu dangled another huge carrot.

Li Ke’er... took a deep breath.

She was tempted.

’He was offering too much.’

If they went with this plan, it really was possible she could become famous in her own unique way.

’This kind of persona is too powerful!’

’What male fan wouldn’t be smitten?’

"How about... I discuss it with my aunt?"

She thought for a moment, her brow furrowed slightly as she asked. She still wanted her aunt, a veteran in the field, to vet the idea.

"Sure, go ahead and ask."

Lin Chu nodded nonchalantly, stood up, and walked toward the door, giving her plenty of space.

After Lin Chu left the room.

Li Ke’er sighed softly and dialed her aunt’s number.

"Auntie, President Lin said he wants to create this kind of persona for me..."

She quickly explained the whole situation from beginning to end.

After listening, Li Fangfei thought for a moment. "Yes, that’s a great idea. President Lin really knows his stuff. A deeply affectionate and devoted female persona has always been popular with male audiences. Think about Zhu Yin, Li Ruotong, Wang Zuxian, even Bai Suzhen... the reason they became goddesses to so many people is that they all leaned into that. While ’strong female lead’ dramas are still mainstream, in the current climate, it’s very possible we’ll see a return to these classic tropes."

"I think it can work, no problem. But I have two points to add."

"First, in the marketing, your status must be higher than his. A powerful woman ’marrying down’ and chasing him—that’s a more appealing narrative."

"Second, you need to be pure and reserved, yet intensely passionate... Hmm, let me think. If President Lin agrees, I’ll find a writer friend to craft a love letter for you. We can add a ’talented literary woman’ label to your image."
