Chapter 328: Change your mindset to rent a house
Jiang Baige's words successfully aroused Mo Songru's curiosity.
"Tell me about it in detail?"
"Sister Mo, the house you live in now was not originally like this. It only looks so good after the renovation, right?"
Mo Songru nodded - thinking the same thing as Jiang Baige.
No landlord or agent will rent out a house whose decoration and décor meet the tenant's needs unless he has other intentions.
Jiang Baige’s idea of finding a house is also based on this.
"I have followed your account..." Jiang Baige was a little embarrassed, "Because I have done some media work before, I subconsciously analyzed your content. I found that although you are a home blogger, the content you update is still mainly about daily life. But how you renovated your rental house is not reflected."
Jiang Baige looked around the house, her tone almost regretful: "If I transform the rental house into this, I will be reluctant to move out."
Mo Songru is not that sentimental.
"I have rented this house for three years, but I started to do self-media in the past year or so...so I have never recorded a video of the renovation..."
Mo Songru suddenly understood what Jiang Baige meant.
"So, you think I could try to make some videos of remodeling a rental house?"
"That's right, you really do eat this bowl of rice!"
Jiang Baige nodded vigorously - it’s right to praise first anyway.
"Most young people now work in big cities and rent houses. I think those who watch home bloggers' vlogs have requirements for their living environment. When they watch your videos, they must also be yearning for your life.
“Things you have used will become your monetization channels. However, if all sharing ends up with purchases, you may lose some fans.”
But this is just Jiang Baige's guess.
If Mo Songru really wants to support herself as a blogger, balancing the frequency of content output and advertising is something she must consider.
If you are just starting to create an account, it’s okay not to think about it in advance.
But Mo Songru has been doing it as a side job for almost two years, and has also received advertising cooperation. Now he has officially started working on it full-time.
Then she would have to consider this issue.
Should we “do business without fraud” and make money whenever we can, or should we insist on producing high-quality content and making money conscientiously?
Only she herself knows the answer to this question.
Mo Songru was very interested in Jiang Baige's suggestion.
"In fact, I was a bit reckless when I decided to work full-time. In fact, the reason why I chose to do self-media was because I felt that with this experience, even if I couldn't continue in two years and had to look for a job again, I would still be able to use it. It doesn't count as a 'window period'."
After all, having been a corporate slave for many years, Mo Songru is obviously not as naive and optimistic as Lin Xingran when it comes to work.
"So I was actually quite anxious... It was for this reason that I wanted to find a house quickly, settle down, and start my career."
Jiang Baige understands.
Because as long as people are alive, they have to spend money, there is simply no way around it.
If you don’t have any savings and just watch the money in your account decrease day by day... even the most optimistic person will question the future.
Just like her at that time, after quitting her job and working as a full-time writer, she still saw no improvement. Before she starved to death, she also thought about finding a job.
There are too many things we “have to” do in life.
Unless you are not afraid of not surviving - like her.
But she is also a bit extreme. She doesn't care and even enjoys it. She thinks such a life is quite simple, but she will not ask others to sacrifice themselves for their "ideals".
"When I just quit my job, I wanted to take a break, so most of the vlogs I shot were about commercial collaborations. I also saw some fans say that they felt it was a bit insincere." Mo Songru sighed, "Of course I will try my best to choose good products that I can use myself, but you also know... I need to eat, and some brands give too much."
"I understand... Just like me, I used to write sweet stories to make money."
I just wrote one article and I just couldn't continue and almost collapsed.
I just don’t know if Mo Songru is different from her and whether he can earn this money.
"But since the fans have brought it up, I still hope to find a balance. So I've been thinking about topic selection recently, and I also want to plan the content matrix of this account."
——It seems that Mo Songru is similar to himself. Jiang Baige feels a little relieved.
"We were looking at houses together some time ago, so I recorded some videos. Then I posted them on topics like 'How to choose a house on the APP', 'How to communicate with the agent', and 'Determine the priority of house selection factors'. I didn't expect to gain a lot of followers. To be honest, I feel quite accomplished."
Not only that, there was actually a house-hunting APP that she actually used that came to her for cooperation in promotion.
It really is a way to output useful information and make money at the same time!
But she also knows that the topic of "renting a house" will come to an end sooner or later.
But now, Jiang Baige has sent a "pillow".
After this sincere conversation, Mo Songru lowered his requirements for the soft furnishings of the house when looking for a house again.
Because if the topic of renovating rental houses is really detailed, it will not be a problem to work on it for several years.
Just taking the "purchase" point as an example, not to mention the rich variety, from small items like a floor mat to large items like desks and bookshelves, everything can be discussed.
Just talking about the purchasing methods, they can be divided into online and offline.
There is naturally a lot of material that can be recorded offline.
But online, there are also many things to do, such as choosing, recommending and avoiding stores, how to choose products on second-hand websites, and even transactions in community second-hand groups...
There is no need to worry that the same topic, such as bedding, will not be usable after one issue.
Because the room is like nature, for a homebody like Mo Songru, there are four seasons, and the winter outfit is naturally different from the summer...
Are you still worried about having nothing new to discover?
There is no need to worry about cashing out. Because if you want to renovate, you have to buy things, which provides opportunities to cooperate with various brands.
In short, the idea of "transformation" proposed by Jiang Baige gave her great inspiration.
She is now afraid that she might go too far and end up changing from a good home blogger to a “renovation” blogger.
By lowering the standards for finding a house, there are more houses that fit their budget.
Less than a week later, they found a nice three-bedroom apartment. Although it was found by an agent, the contract was signed with the landlord for one year.
The house has always had a tenant, so Jiang Baige felt more at ease.
After making an appointment with the landlord to sign the contract the next morning, Jiang Baige called her parents to tell them about it that evening.
Because of some work at the unit and Jiang Baige and Xin Zhiping could move together, they left early.
Unexpectedly, the next morning, when Jiang Baige turned on her mobile phone, she received a bank card deposit information: it was exactly the agency fee and the deposit of one and three months' rent, a total of four months.
