Chapter 761: Chapter 780: The Sales Plan Was Really Moved Up
Why on earth had they invited Mei Lin, who had publicly supported Jiang Qiuqiu on the Star Network...
It all began some time ago.
After her food tasting company was founded, Wang Nian Nian submitted a proposal for a banquet to Qian Song in order to attract investors, and it was approved.
Following the plan, she sent invitations to socialites and nobles.
However, Wang Nian Nian wasn’t from Federation Star. She came from another planet and hadn’t had much contact with the "food" scene on the Star Network, so she wasn’t very familiar with its key players.
Qian Song never specified who not to invite, so she went ahead and invited Mei Lin Dais.
Only afterward, when she reported to Qian Song her failure to win Mei Lin over, did his eyes fly open in fury and disbelief. "You invited *Mei Lin*?!"
"...W-what’s wrong?"
"..."
And so, a few spies began lurking in Jiang Qiuqiu’s live broadcast room.
The factory’s schedule tightened as well.
Even though his competitor had found out late—they would be constrained by a lack of raw materials and the time needed to find a factory—Qian Song still feared they would seize the market first. He grew more and more tense.
He was already wound as tight as a bowstring, and then he heard from his spies that the competition was about to release a portable food product.
Who could possibly remain calm?
With a grim expression, Qian Song made his decision. "We can’t wait any longer."
"The tech department is already analyzing the new sauce. We’re launching immediately!"
"We have to be the first ones to market."
"When people talk about sauce, I want them to think of the Food Tasting Factory."
He could be quite intimidating when he spoke in that deep voice.
Wang Nian Nian chimed in from the side. "So, Qian Song, we’re moving ahead with the plan right away?"
"We are."
"Get everything ready. We’re opening the purchasing channels at dawn the day after tomorrow."
"Understood."
The lights in that office didn’t go out until 3:00 AM.

Qian Song wasn’t entirely unprepared this time.
In fact, he had been laying this groundwork for a long time.
From the very beginning, to avoid any potential failure from tarnishing the reputation of the Federation Live Broadcast Company, he had secretly found a trusted individual to act as a proxy and open a new company.
In early August, he orchestrated a collaboration between this new company and the Federation Live Broadcast Company. With the "Food Tasting Factory" as the front, they ran a small promotional campaign for the mysterious event within the food live-streaming division.
For fear of being discovered, all promotions were kept low-key.
Still, they managed to build up some curiosity among the community.
Originally, there was supposed to be a longer pre-launch period, and more room for the "crab" to grow, but now—
He felt that something wasn’t quite right.
But events had already been pushed this far. He could only press forward; there was no turning back.
-
The plan was moved ahead.
「The morning of August 17th.」
First, a notice went out to the Federation’s dedicated food live-streaming section.
Several of the food section’s resident streamers received a notice from the editor-in-chief.
"Dear Streamer [Name], the product promotion event you previously signed on for has now entered the official promotional phase. The product has been shipped to your delivery address: [Address]."
"This has been sent via interstellar express. Please record a promotional video immediately upon receipt."
Not only that, but after sending the brief notice, the editor-in-chief also added all the streamers who had accepted the promotional task to a group chat.
He announced in the group that whoever’s promotion performed the best would receive an excellent featured spot on the app.
Everyone was rubbing their hands in glee, excited for the opportunity.
That is, until the item to be promoted was actually revealed in the encrypted group chat. Then, some of them went silent.
