Ji Fanyin brought the camera close up to one of the accessory boxes and asked, “What do you think is in there?”
Chen Yunsheng responded carefully, “The box looks flat… Is it bracelets?”
“Nope.”
“Necklace?”
Ji Fanyin tilted her phone downward and back up to emulate a nodding action. “You’re getting close.”
Chen Yunsheng spent another few more seconds in thoughts, trying to gather whatever little knowledge he knew about female accessories. “Princess necklace?”
(It’s referring to the type of necklaces that rests nicely on the collar bone.)
Ji Fanyin’s lips curled up in interest. Deciding not to tease the young man anymore, she pried open the lid to show it to him.
Sitting in the box was a golden medal with a basketball inscribed on it.
The medal’s design wasn’t exactly aesthetically pleasing, but the feelings behind it were sincere. Thus, she chose to carefully stow it away.
There was a loud thud on the other side of the phone, as if something had been knocked over.
The screen spun around before finally halting on Chen Yunsheng, who was covering his face.
“Don’t get so agitated,” said Ji Fanyin as she closed the accessory box. “I’m just showing you that I’ve been keeping it well.”
Chen Yunsheng turned his phone away from him, not wanting to show his furiously blushing face. He murmured weakly in protest, “… This is unfair.”
Ji Fanyin chuckled softly before repeating her blessing, “Happy birthday.”
She found joy in teasing the youth, somewhat similar to how she would poke fun at Song Shiyu from time to time. It was just that the former was innocent fun whereas the former was fueled by her inner wicked streak.
Well, both are quite entertaining anyway.
The clock soon struck midnight, and the youth’s birthday came to an end. Ji Fanyin bade him farewell and hung up the video call. She returned to her laptop and noticed that she had already left the programmer hanging for ten minutes or so.
He asked: 【To summarize what you just said, you want to build a competitive bidding system on top of your current system, right?】
Ji Fanyin answered concisely: 【That’s right】
The programmer replied with charismatic decisiveness: 【Got it. I’ll draft out a journey map for you. Let’s use the prices from our previous deal】
Ji Fanyin generously offered him a premium to rush out the function as soon as possible.
The amount she was paying wasn’t much compared to the potential benefits she could earn from the bidding system.
The programmer was extremely efficient in his work. Within twenty minutes, the customer journey map was already sitting in Ji Fanyin’s email.
The design of the reservation app was quite simple, modeled after movie ticketing apps. As long as a person was willing to pay for a certain seat, the ticket would go to him.
However, Bai Zhou’s unusual purchasing habits earlier in the day alerted her to potential problems, so she decided to impose some restrictions.
Same as before, the user would first select a series of time slots to begin the reservation process. What was different was the additional option to select whether they would like to pay for the basic fee or increase it up to tenfold.
If another user hoped to occupy the same time slot, he had the option to pay a higher price so as to receive priority, making it somewhat like an auction. Of course, the original user also had the option to further raise his bid so as to not allow his reserved slot to be taken away.
Other than that, she also reduced the time slots that could be reserved, from fifteen hours a day to ten hours a day, ranging from 11 A.M. to 9 P.M..
She didn’t want to burn herself out from overworking, not to mention that she was slowly moving her priority toward the studio she had established with Zhang Ning.
Until my part-time job officially becomes a full-time job, I’ll just have to do it this way.
An increase in prices was bound to lead to a decrease in demand, but she needed to adopt a business model that was feasible for her circumstances.
Ji Fanyin looked at the newly updated app and gave the matter some thought.
Hmm, my largest one-off income was still from the business trip I had with Bai Zhou to Greece. Is it possible that my salary might end up going up as my rich clients attempt to outbid each other?
