Chapter 1521: Chapter 588: No More Pretending—I’m Here to Shoot an Ad! Dumplings and Liquor, The More You Drink, The More You Get!

"Hello everyone, I’m Lin Xu!"

Outside the Wenshan Dental Clinic, the exploration show officially began. Lin Xu gave a brief introduction to the camera and then said:

"Many friends have suggested that I shoot an exploration video, so today we’re taking a small step by exploring a shop that other influencers haven’t covered much."

With that, the introduction ended.

The videographer started filming the dental clinic’s entrance, and Hao Qingfeng took a few shots with the camera, planning to add them directly to the video during editing.

Entering the clinic, Shi Wenshan was initially going to pretend to be a normal customer engaging in conversation, but Lin Xu directly grabbed his arm and said to the camera:

"No need for pretenses; this is an advertisement video. My cousin is the mastermind behind this clinic. If you want to get your teeth cleaned or have an oral check-up, reach out to him!"

Starting off seriously with an exploration video, but suddenly revealing it’s an ad while mentioning family relations.

For a typical exploration influencer, they would definitely be criticized fiercely by netizens, but Lin Xu wouldn’t be.

He doesn’t make exploration videos, and his followers are focused on food and pets, so they won’t unfollow because of this. Instead, they’ll find it refreshing.

This type of creation needs new ideas.

As long as it’s novel, whether it’s an ad or not doesn’t matter.

Moreover, as an influencer with millions of followers, taking ads is just normal. However, after signing with Joyful Media, Lin Xu generally doesn’t take small ads to avoid affecting Joyful Media’s image.

’Today I’m mainly here for an oral check-up and to have my teeth cleaned. Taking care of your teeth allows you to enjoy more delicious food. If you have time, get your teeth cleaned. If you have periodontal issues, get a subgingival curettage. You must take good care of your teeth, or else you’ll regret not being able to chew tasty food later.’

Lin Xu said to the camera and then, following Shi Wenshan’s instructions, lay down on a multi-functional chair to start receiving an oral examination.

A clinic nurse came over and helped Shi Wenshan adjust the chair height to start the examination.

Lin Xu usually pays attention to dental health, adhere to the principles of brushing teeth in the morning and evening, and rinse after meals. His teeth are quite healthy, so after Shi Wenshan’s check-up, he started to clean them.

This effectively removes dental plaque and tartar from the surface of the teeth and prolongs their longevity.

While Shi Wenshan was cleaning teeth, Hao Qingfeng, nearby, said to him:

"Dr. Shi could also open an account as a medical science popularization influencer. With Lin’s popularity and Joyful Media’s operation ability, it will surely become popular very quickly."

Shi Wenshan replied while busy:

"I’d like to, but I don’t know where to start. I can’t just read dental management regulations and suggestions to viewers all the time, can I?"

"No need to do that; you can just film the teeth cleaning process without showing patients’ faces or explaining anything. As long as the chosen person’s tartar is ample, viewers will naturally follow to watch."

Shi Wenshan signaled the nurse beside him to place the saliva suction pipe in Lin Xu’s mouth and then asked with a smile:

"Having a lot of tartar is quite common, but does anyone really watch this stuff?"

"Yes, people with OCD are plenty online. Videos of car cleaning, carpet cleaning, hoof trimming, and even foot repair get plenty of views. Some netizens even watch them as mealtime videos... As long as you make them, there are definite viewers."

Shi Wenshan was tempted:

"Let’s exchange WeChat later, and we’ll chat when we have time."

Hao Qingfeng naturally wouldn’t refuse because Shi Wenshan is Lin Xu’s cousin and the owner of the dental clinic, so professionally and personally, it’s good to build a connection.

He said:

"Sure, I have some experience in filming and editing, so we can learn from each other when the time comes."

"Whoa, man, you’re too modest. I should be the one learning from you. I’ll need your guidance."

"No worries, anyway, I don’t have much else to do after work."

After finishing the teeth cleaning, Lin Xu specifically praised his cousin’s craftsmanship and said to the camera:

"Friends in Beijing, if you encounter oral issues, remember to visit Wenshan Dental Clinic for services like teeth cleaning, replacement, and oral care."

The videographer filmed some close-ups of the clinic’s interior—banners, equipment, certifications, and more.

After filming, Shi Wenshan handed red envelopes to both the videographer and Hao Qingfeng:

"Thanks for coming to shoot, here’s a small token of appreciation; please accept."

Lin Xu is a family member and doesn’t need a red envelope, but for the staff, who are just workers, you can’t freeload. It’s necessary to pay them, so next time when shooting, everyone will be more motivated.

And since Hao Qingfeng mentioned the possibility of filming teeth cleaning videos, it’s a perfect chance to seek guidance from them.

They exchanged WeChat contacts, and Lin Xu told Shi Wenshan:

"Brother Wenshan, remember to go to the shop for dumplings in the evening. Also, discuss oral check-up matters with our manager; I won’t participate. You guys can talk it over."

Shi Wenshan didn’t refuse:

"Alright, I’ll head over at around four."

After bidding farewell to him, Lin Xu drove off, taking Hao Qingfeng and the videographer back to the company. He wanted to catch Qi Siming filming Yellow Steamed Bun.

Upon arriving downstairs at Huixuan Building, just as they got out of the car, they ran into Qi Panpan.

Hao Qingfeng quickly greeted:

"Hello, Ms. Qi."

Qi Panpan waved her hand:

"I’m no boss, just a worker... What have you guys been up to? Even carrying equipment, is Lin planning to film an exploration show too?"
