If it was as Meng Chang said, the different groups would definitely fight after ‘Successor’ was released.

  When people read the publicity content, they often picked what they were interested in.

  The promotional process of many movies was a little like “stitched up monsters”. It was to attract as many viewers who liked different topics as possible.

  However, he would often be scolded badly.

  Take ‘Successor’ for example. Through this publicity method, viewers who liked superheroes would come to watch. They might not have heard of the original version at all and think that ‘Successor’ was a normal superhero movie. Those who had some understanding of the content of ‘Successor’ would come back to watch it. It would be another different kind of anticipation.

  This inevitably caused a polarized evaluation.

  These two types of people would definitely react differently after watching the first three episodes. Some people might curse and even argue with each other.

  At that time, some people would inevitably give low ratings in revenge. That would achieve the goal of “someone being deceived by the publicity content even though they already had the original.”


  Those who gave bad reviews watched the first three episodes or ran away after the first episode. Not only would they not generate much views, but they would also lower their ratings. Wouldn’t that be perfect?

  Pei Qian nodded and handed the plan back. “Alright, let’s follow this plan.”


  It might not be perfect but reverse publicity was very difficult.

  Pei Qian had done so much reverse publicity and failed many times. Now, he was quite satisfied with this plan.

  Meng Chang took the proposal with both hands and was very happy.

  Alright, the plan was recognized by Boss Pei!

  This meant that there was no problem with his understanding of the Pei family’s publicity method.

  Of course, he only wrote half of his plan. He did not write how to reverse the popularity of the publicity.

  On one hand, it was because Boss Pei would definitely be able to guess the second half after seeing the first half. There was no need to do anything unnecessary. On the other hand, it was also because the second half of the plan had not been completely confirmed.

  In fact, he had to wait for the publicity plan to be released. He had to see the actual feedback of the audience and make some minor adjustments to the subsequent operations.

  No matter what, Meng Chang felt that his improvement was obvious.

  It was indeed very difficult to work in Tengda to pay off your debts, but what if he changed his mind?

  He owed Boss Pei money, and Boss Pei had to teach him real skills. Wouldn’t that be a killing?

  The one who owed money was the boss!

  Meng Chang happily advanced with the plan.

  …


  Pei Qian briefly looked at the work reports from the various departments after watching Meng Chang leave.

  There were too many departments now, and there were more and more of them. Thus, even though Pei Qian emphasized that these departments should be as simple as possible when writing work reports, the volume of the report would inevitably become longer.

  Pei Qian felt light-headed. After going through it briefly, he could not wait to watch more dramas on Aili Island.

  After having lunch, he took a nap. After drinking a cup of coffee to refresh himself, he browsed the forum and read everyone’s discussion about GOG and IOI World Competition.

  Pei Qian glanced at the time. It was almost three. It seemed a little early to knock off early after finishing a day of hard work.

  What should he do then?

  He suddenly remembered that he had not seen the source of happiness today. Thus, he quickly opened Bunny Tail Live-Stream and began to watch Teacher Qiao’s live-stream.

  He had already ended the focus mode when he slept in the afternoon, so he could watch it directly now.

  Pei Qian could not help but feel a long-absent joy when he saw Teacher Qiao still at the bottom of the second episode no matter how hard he tried.

  “Ah, Old Qiao is really my source of joy!”


  “What else in the world could make me happier to see Teacher Qiao suffer? No, definitely not!”


  “It’s a pity that this will only happen once.”


  “What if I want to reminisce about this joy in the future? I can’t watch the recording, right? That would be too boring.”


  Pei Qian knew very well that Qiao Liang had come this time mainly because the lucky draw that he had rigged had won him. There were so many people watching, and he had no choice but to come under everyone’s gaze.

  What’s more, Qiao Liang had obviously underestimated the level of suffering here.

  I can’t lie to him next time.

  Firstly, the lucky draw method could only be used once. It would be a scam if he drew Qiao Liang next time. It would be too fake. Secondly, Qiao Liang had already experienced the Suffering Travels. Even if he drew it the next time, he could legitimately say that he had already experienced it and give the opportunity to others.

  All in all, this should be Qiao Liang’s first performance in his Suffering Travels. It would also be his last performance.

  Cherish it!

  After watching for a while, Pei Qian felt a little strange.

  “Eh, why don’t I see Bao Xu today? Sa Ziran is training this group of people.”


  “Could Bao Xu be addicted to games and playing games?”


  Just as he was feeling puzzled, he heard a knock on the door.

  Pei Qian looked up. It was Bao Xu!

  “Why are you here?” Pei Qian was a little surprised.

  No wonder he did not see Bao Xu. He had come looking for him.

  Bao Xu handed him a plan. “Boss Pei, this is the new plan I made for the Suffering Travels. It’s mainly to increase the price from 35,000 to 50,000 yuan. At the same time, I added some additional content.”


  “Additional content?” Pei Qian took the proposal and quickly scanned it.

  “This…”


  Pei Qian frowned, not knowing if these measures were good or bad.

  The price had indeed increased a lot, from 35,000 to 50,000 yuan. It should be able to better dissuade those who came to participate with their own expenses.

  However, the problem was that the benefits were too much!

  He had the title of an ascetic and could obtain special preferential treatment wherever he went. That was very attractive to many hardcore fans of Tengda.

  Pei Qian had wanted to reject him, but he suddenly had an idea when he saw Qiao Liang suffering in the live-stream.

  Eh, with this rule, wouldn’t Qiao Liang be able to take the initiative to repeatedly Suffering Travels?

  Given Qiao Liang’s character, he would definitely not be willing to be the last.

  If not for Bao Xu’s plan, Qiao Liang’s ranking would not have mattered. However, after implementing this plan, Qiao Liang would probably have come to the farm for a ranking!

  Then, he would be able to see Qiao Liang suffer every one or two months. That would be too happy!

  It would be worth it to make some money in order to obtain this joy!

  What’s more, Pei Qian’s notebook had many people other than companies like Li Shi and Lin Chang. The lucky draw could not draw them.

  However, once Bao Xu’s identity as an ascetic was widely recognized, he might be able to lure them in.

  They would be able to cheat their way in the second time since they would want to be ranked.

  Thinking about it this way, this plan still had some merits. At the very least, it would be easier to lure people outside and increase the price legitimately!

  At that thought, Pei Qian nodded slightly. “Yes… that’s a good attempt.”


  “However, there’s a problem. These benefits need the cooperation of the various departments. Have they agreed?”


  Bao Xu nodded. “I agreed!”


  “I sent this plan to all the relevant department groups this morning. They replied to me very quickly. They completely agreed and cooperated fully!”


  Pei Qian: “…”


  Good lord, Boss Bao, your authority is not small.

  Once a plan was sent, everyone would cooperate fully. They would look very afraid of you.

  However, that was not a big problem. As long as Bao Xu was committed to making everyone suffer, he would be his right-hand man. It did not matter if he had more power.

  What’s more, Pei Qian was the one who had the right to decide on Suffering Travels.

  After some consideration, Pei Qian said, “The entire plan is OK, but there’s a small problem that needs to be modified.”


  “It’s just that there are too many benefits for the ascetics now.”


  “I think the reward of the ascetics should be more focused on identity recognition than direct benefits.”


  “In my opinion, the titles, records, commemorations, certificates, and communication between ascetics should all be fine.”


  “However, we should make some changes to the benefits: Firstly, if we can’t participate in one Suffering Travels, the benefits would be maximized. There should be a process of upgrading. Of course, this level cannot be set too high. The maximum would be after participating in three Suffering Travels. The experience of participating in the Suffering Travels would be greatly reduced after that.”


  “Secondly, these benefits have to be greatly nerfed. For example, directly skipping the one hour limit for Bunny Tail Live-Stream would be a little lacking in flexibility. I think it would be alright to send some time-free vouchers to the ascetics regularly. Some would take a few minutes, some would take half an hour. We can make some flexibility based on the ascetics’ level.”


  “Also, you can also consider giving these benefits to core users to a limited extent within the industry so that users can obtain these benefits at once apart from becoming ascetics. They can also obtain them through limited channels within these industries.”


  “There are also special VIP treatments for ascetics in industries like Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and take-out. We can do this, but don’t write it in the announcement. Don’t let everyone participate in Suffering Travels because of this. That would be a little different.”


  “Suffering travel should emphasize an internal sublimation of the spirit. It should not have so much utilitarianism.”


  Everything that Pei Qian had done was tailor-made for Qiao Liang.

  Qiao Liang was more concerned about the title. As for the benefits, they were definitely not that important to him.

  Since that was the case, he would do his best to hack and hide so that the ignorant passers-by would not be tempted. He would accurately attack people like Qiao Liang and let them come a few more times. It was quite good.

  Bao Xu hesitated for a moment. “But Boss Pei, that way, Suffering Travels would be much less attractive to everyone. It would be a pity if not many people suffer…”


  Pei Qian smiled. “It’s alright. Haven’t you arranged enough people in Tengda?”


  “What’s more, the capacity of Suffering Travels is limited now. If you attract so many people at once, they would have to queue slowly. You might as well dissuade a portion of them. If you lack people in the future, you can think of other ways.”


  Bao Xu pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. “Yes… that’s right.”


  “I’ll make arrangements now. I’ll try to make an announcement today and officially sign up tomorrow.”


  Other departments had to agree to add benefits, but there was no need to cut benefits. Thus, it was very convenient to build it.

  Pei Qian nodded. “Yes, go!”


  He could not wait to see Teacher Qiao enter the palace again. Happy!
