After the scientists left, life gradually returned to normal.
However, Shen Wei was feeling a bit anxious.
The system's cold, mechanical voice was nagging incessantly.
"Since you borrowed 60,000 points, please repay within one month, or you will receive the system's electric shock punishment."
"Now entering countdown: 29 days, 23:59."
Shen Wei was speechless. When did the system become such a loan shark?
When it initially persuaded her to borrow points, it never mentioned that the points had to be repaid within a month.
Now that the points were borrowed, it was too late to say anything.
Shen Wei had previously used the system's electric shock to deal with villains when in danger.
She had witnessed the power of the shock firsthand. It could instantly incapacitate a person, causing unbearable pain.
She certainly didn't want to experience that herself.
Shen Wei was at a loss for words.
Unless she issued tasks herself, the system would only release new tasks when triggered.
Moreover, previous reward points were only 10,000 or 20,000.
Each of these tasks took at least half a month to complete, making the return on investment seem too low.
The fastest way to acquire points was to gain reputation online.
During peak popularity times, she could earn up to 5,000 points daily online.
If this continued,
It would take half a month to accumulate the necessary points.
But previously, it had all been unintentional.
There was no real marketing involved. Now their kindergarten was already quite popular, with many people watching and waiting for them to make a mistake.
Under such scrutiny, trying to create hype would be extremely difficult.
More and more competitors would be watching them, and if any problems arose, this popularity could become a double-edged sword.
Plus, she was in the basic education field after all.
Constantly using children for publicity would eventually make long-time livestream followers feel disgusted.
Shen Wei tapped her fingers lightly on the table, making a crisp "tock-tock" sound.
There was still one avenue she hadn't explored, which was incredibly popular right now – livestream selling.
Even celebrities of all kinds were getting involved.
No matter how new streamers started out making skits, they all eventually became product-selling streamers.
Because it was just too lucrative.
But Shen Wei didn't lack money.
Livestream selling would only consume her fanbase.
After all, many people were there for Starry Sky Kindergarten.
As she was torn between options, she suddenly received a phone call.
The caller was Qin Shu.
Qin Shu was Shen Qingqing's right-hand man in the original book.
He was very capable, previously going door-to-door to recruit contestants and judges for the culinary competitions.
The high popularity was due to his tremendous efforts.
Now Starry Sky Kindergarten was about to open its second branch.
Shen Wei had already discussed with him about becoming the principal of the second branch.
But he declined, not wanting a desk job, preferring freedom instead.
Shen Wei had agreed to this as well.
Qin Shu never called without a reason, so Shen Wei felt suspicious. She finally answered, saying, "Hello, Qin Shu, what's the matter?"
Qin Shu said, "I know people at Apple TV. They're planning to record a variety show. They're very interested in our He Lingfeng and want to invite us as guests for one episode."
He Lingfeng's reputation as a child prodigy had spread, and what was even more intriguing was his tragic background from years ago.
He was the perfect embodiment of the handsome, talented, but unfortunate character that people loved.
His online popularity was very high.
Apple TV happened to be organizing a parent-child themed show and wanted Shen Wei to bring He Lingfeng along as guests.
He thought this would also be a good way to promote the kindergarten.
Having fame in their city was nothing special; it would be better to be famous nationwide.
Shen Wei's eyes lit up when she heard this, thinking, "Points, here come the points!"
