Xiao Ning was surprised and took her phone. It was a short video on Douyin with the title: "Limited Edition Luxury Sports Car Lamborghini Veneno Appears in Linjiang County".
After clicking play, he discovered that it was a short video taken by a passerby in the car, which clearly captured Xiao Ning driving a cool-looking silver-gray Lamborghini Veneno down the street, with Xiao Qiang in the passenger seat smiling radiantly.
"Oh, I see. I knew it!"
Xiao Ning glanced at the comments, most of which were things like "surprised," "666," and "awesome."
"That's not all! It's all over Weibo, Zhihu, Tieba, and Yanshan Short Video. The top trending topics are all about you!"
Xiao Qiang took the phone from his hand and opened one app after another, all of which were about the owner of the limited edition Lamborghini Veneno.
"That's how the internet is; once the hype dies down in a couple of days, nobody cares anymore!"
Xiao Ning glanced at it casually and said indifferently.
"Dude, are you stupid?!"
Xiao Qiang stomped her foot, looking utterly disappointed.
Xiao Ning was completely bewildered, looking utterly confused: "What's wrong? How did I become stupid again? Qiang, explain yourself clearly!"
"Monetize traffic!"
Xiao Qiang rolled her eyes and explained, "What era are we living in now? The era where internet traffic is king! Now that there are topics, there is corresponding traffic. What you need to do, brother, is to seize the opportunity, grab this inflated popularity, and then monetize it to make a fortune!"
"Oh? So that's what monetization means. So, how do I do it? Traffic is an illusory thing; you can't grasp it or see it. So how can I make it my own?"
Xiao Ning scratched his head and humbly asked his younger sister for advice.
It's not that he doesn't understand these things; after all, in the past, all he did was fight, cause trouble, drink, and chase girls.
He knows nothing about the internet, and after spending more than half a year in prison, he's even more out of touch with the times.
However, Xiao Ning's strength lies in his willingness to humbly accept and diligently learn things he doesn't understand, and he never tries to be arrogant or concerned about saving face.
At this moment, he was no longer the invincible Master Xiao of Wudang, nor the Venerable Master Xiao of the Xiao family who dared not utter a sound when he attacked Yunlan Sect.
He was a complete novice when it came to the internet, a novice eager to learn.
Xiao Ning felt that this was a completely new path in life, and perhaps it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
"...like this...like that..."
Xiao Qiang explained all the methods she knew, and then said, "Anyway, that's roughly it. First, set up a character, then write the script, and then act according to the script."
"That's all I know. As for the specifics of how to proceed, you'll have to figure it out yourself based on the actual situation!"
Xiao Qiang gave a detailed explanation with great interest.
After listening, Xiao Ning immediately understood how to proceed.
He nodded: "That's right, this is indeed a path, Qiang girl, your words have broadened my horizons and made me look at you in a new light!"
Then, his tone shifted, and his face turned cold: "But you little brat, instead of studying properly, you're always paying attention to all this nonsense online. You deserve a beating!"
"Hmph, you cross the river and then destroy the bridge, you get married and then throw the matchmaker out the wall, brother, you're too wicked!"
Xiao Qiang made a face and said angrily.

Chapter 1 Uploaded to Douyin (5.6k)
At the entrance of Jinfeng Village, there is a banyan tree that is over a hundred years old. The giant tree, which takes five people to encircle, stands like a canopy, lush and verdant. The nearly ten-meter-high trunk is full of traces left by time.
Xiao Ning, dressed casually, stood under the banyan tree and gave a brief introduction to the tree's history to the camera. Then he said, "When we were kids, a bunch of us used to play here and left a lot of marks on the tree. Today, I'm going to take them all out!"
At the same time, as the camera zooms in, you can see that the huge banyan tree, starting from the roots and going up six or seven meters, is covered with foreign objects such as iron needles, mostly nailed there by naughty children, and is already covered in rust.
After Xiao Ning finished speaking, he turned around, bent two fingers, pinched the head of an iron nail, and gently pulled it out, removing a three-inch-long nail.
After pulling them out, they didn't stop. Like pulling weeds, in no time they had pulled out all the nails within a two-meter range on the banyan tree that they could reach.
Just when Xiao Bing, who was filming with his phone, thought he was about to stop, he witnessed an extremely exciting scene.
Xiao Ning leaped three meters into the air, aimed at a tree branch, grabbed it, and hovered in mid-air. He held onto the branch with one hand while continuing to remove the nails from the tree trunk with the other.
After working for less than ten minutes, Xiao Ning finally finished cleaning all the foreign objects off the entire banyan tree. He let go, jumped down lightly, and landed on the ground without making a sound.
Spring is here, let's not let our good friends cry!
Stroking the old, mottled banyan tree, Xiao Ning sighed.
After saying that, he walked to the side, pulled the ignition switch on the Lamborghini Veneno parked there, started the engine, and drove off with a roar.
The filming ends here.
Xiao Bing pressed the stop filming button, his face full of amazement.
With a roar of the engine, Xiao Ning drove the car back, parked it next to Xiao Bing, got out, and asked, "How's it going, Bing? Did you get all the footage?"
Xiao Bing, still looking surprised, blankly handed over the phone. He gave a thumbs up and exclaimed, "Ning Ya Zi, you're amazing! You leaped up a whole floor in one bound! So you really did learn martial arts at Shaolin Temple!"
Xiao Ning did not respond. After checking the footage and finding it mostly correct, she extended an invitation to him instead.
"How about it, Abing? Come work for me. I'll give you a base salary of two thousand yuan a month plus commission, plus room and board. Want to join?"
Xiao Bing scratched his head and smiled憨厚ly: "Okay, as long as you don't mind my clumsiness, Ning Yazi!"
