I Cultivated Using My Phone In A Fantasy World - Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Brand Effect

After the swordsmanship class ended, Lin Xiaoyu followed Fang Chen’s instructions and secretly recorded everyone’s learning progress.

She did not know what Fang Chen was up to, but she knew that this was probably another nightmare for these new disciples. Based on the records, Lin Xiaoyu was shocked to discover that all 26 of them had actually comprehended the first move of the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique. Even the weakest had comprehended the three variations of the second move.

This outcome was something Lin Xiaoyu did not dare to imagine.

This was because when she was a new disciple, her talent was ranked at the top compared to this batch of new disciples.

However, she clearly remembered that on the first day, she had only barely comprehended the first move. The second move had not even begun.

“This… if I were in today’s class, I would actually be one of the five who would be beaten?”

Lin Xiaoyu was confused.

It felt like this new disciple’s teaching was about to start a new era for Fang Chen.

“Alright, today’s swordsmanship class is completely over. The results of the thirteenth place are already in my hands. This is what Senior Lin Xiaoyu arranged. I won’t tell you the results today, but when it’s announced tomorrow, I hope you can all surpass her. Otherwise, you’ll be beaten up if you fall behind.”

With that, Fang Chen waved his hand, indicating that the class was dismissed.

Only then did Lin Xiaoyu understand why Fang Chen wanted her to secretly calculate everyone’s learning progress.

If he did not announce tomorrow’s passing standards, it would be equivalent to burying a dark pit. If he wanted to avoid stepping on it, one had to ensure that there were no dark pits on one’s path at all.

In other words, if one did not know the standards, then one would not be able to relax for a moment after class. One had to blindly increase one’s learning progress to the limit that one could improve…

“This Fang Chen… Why is he so evil?”

Lin Xiaoyu instantly felt that Fang Chen was really a little smart and terrifying.

The new disciples felt the same way.

“It’s over. After class, I’m afraid I won’t have any other thoughts. I have to memorize the cultivation technique and sword technique. I don’t want to be the first to be beaten. Otherwise, it will be too embarrassing.”

Everyone was thinking the same thing.

The new disciples left one by one. Even Wang Jianan, who was originally full of confidence, ran away after greeting Fang Chen. Clearly, he also felt the pressure.

Because just now, he happened to see that he was ranked second today.

This was something Wang Jianan could not

accept.

After all, he had always said that he was the most outstanding other than Fang Chen. Now that he was surpassed, it was really a slap in the face.

“Fang Chen, you’re really ruthless. With just this move, you directly rolled these disciples up. This way, they have to crawl forward with all their might.”

Jiang Mingtao walked out of the back hall. Seeing the progress of this class, he even felt that the most difficult sword technique would be mastered by every new disciple in less than twenty days.

This way, Jiang Mingtao even felt that he had a chance to challenge the 100% completion rate that had never appeared in the history of new disciples.

“Hehe, Instructor Jiang, this isn’t called being ruthless. It should be called being serious and responsible. Otherwise, they will suffer the most during the assessment,” Fang Chen smiled and said eloquently.

Jiang Mingtao had no rebuttal.

Then, they dispersed and waited to witness a miracle tomorrow.

Fang Chen quickly returned to his small courtyard. The moment he entered, he smelled Chinese medicine. At the same time, he saw Old Fang busy grinding herbs in the courtyard.

“Oh, Young Master, you’re finally back. I’ve been grinding herbs all afternoon. My waist is almost broken.”

Old Fang’s initial joy at obtaining the mission had long been worn away.

Fang Chen smiled and said, “Old Fang, we’re in the early stages of entrepreneurship, so we have to do these things ourselves to ensure that the quality of the barbecue seasoning is good and accepted by people.

Once our barbecue seasoning were popular with the public, we could hire or outsource them for someone else to grind. Then we would just have to master the recipe ratios ourselves.

So don’t worry, the hard work will come to an end soon.

Besides, didn’t I say that we’re not in a hurry? If you’re tired, get up and practice the Three Styles of Breeze. I guarantee that you’ll feel refreshed and your back won’t ache anymore,” Fang Chen comforted Old Fang while checking his results today.

“Old Fang, you provided more than 80 portions of barbecue seasoning this afternoon. This speed is completely beyond my expectations. From tomorrow onwards, you only have to provide 100 portions of barbecue seasoning.

The rest of the time, you can set an appropriate price for the barbecue according to your experience and our costs.

In three days, I’ll start advertising our barbecue seasoning to the public. I hope we make it big,”

instructed Fang Chen again.

“Young Master, shouldn’t we name our barbecue seasoning first? Look at those Wong Po Tofu, Wang Mazi Scissors, Yandu Roasted Duck, and so on. They all have names. Let’s give our seasoning a resounding name. This way, even if someone imitates our barbecue seasoning in the future, we’ll still be the best,” Old Fang said enthusiastically.

Fang Chen’s eyes widened in appreciation. This old man simply surprised him every time.

Although Old Fang did not mean it, Fang Chen instantly thought of a word-brand effect.

As a modern time traveler, Fang Chen naturally knew the importance of brands to product sales.

Brands were able to promote their products with emphasis. They were simple and focused. They were deeply rooted and impressed. It was beneficial for people to quickly familiarize themselves with the products and stimulate their desire to buy them.

Moreover, as long as the brand formed an effect that made people familiar with it and became a famous brand, it would create an exclusive user group and make people feel proud of the brand.

Fang Chen also thought of many modern business concepts, such as product logos, anti-counterfeiting logos, standard forging, chain development, industrial chain forging, and so on.

“Old Fang, why don’t you think of a name for our barbecue seasoning?”

Fang Chen was instantly excited, thinking that a great brand might be born today.

“Hehe, if I want to, I’ll call it Young Master’s barbecue or King Zhenbei’s barbecue. It sounds quite pleasant,” Old Fang suggested, baring his big yellow teeth. Fang Chen nodded. He felt that the two names that Old Fang had thought of were indeed not bad, but Fang Chen quickly rejected them in his heart.

This was because these two names sounded like barbecue seasoning invented by rich people. Then, according to the popular mentality of despising the rich, ordinary people and martial artists would immediately develop resistance to their brand.

After all, at the end of the day, their target audience were ordinary people and martial artists. Those two names were definitely not conducive to the initial publicity and market expansion.
