Qing Shan Qu Zui
Chapter 1201 Finally Got the Commission
Obviously, even though Chaolu Games platform had burned a lot of money on publicity and received a lot of criticism, its attention and popularity were still not perfect.
This full commission was really hard to get.
Pei Qian figured that even if he went in person, he would probably fail just the same.
He could only rely on Meng Chang to find a solution himself.
But no matter what, a commission of 98,000 was more than three years' worth of Meng Chang's base salary, which was pretty good.
Pei Qian handed over the laptop: "Well, very good, you've finally gotten the hang of it! You've found the right way to get a commission!"
Meng Chang took the laptop and looked at it. When he saw the number 98,000, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement.
It was exactly as he had predicted!
After months of exploration and countless days and nights of hard thinking, he had finally achieved results.
Meng Chang had been wondering why President Pei wanted him to get commissions through reverse promotion.
Later, he understood that it was obviously to make him learn the Pei-style promotion method and achieve better publicity results through reverse promotion.
And Meng Chang recalled that the reason why his previous promotion plans had all failed was, on the one hand, because he was not skilled enough and did not have enough mastery of the situation of each project; on the other hand, President Pei must have been playing tricks.
Obviously, when President Pei found out that Meng Chang was not promoting according to the Pei-style promotion method, but was deliberately trying to make the project fail miserably, he would choose the right time to detonate all the heat that had been buried before without leaving a trace.
And in order to punish Meng Chang, President Pei often chose the end of the month.
As a result, the project was still popular, and President Pei still achieved his goal, but Meng Chang couldn't get a commission.
But now, Meng Chang had figured out the Pei-style promotion method, and the final step was naturally to detonate the project, so President Pei would no longer intervene.
Meng Chang felt that if he hadn't taken the final step and hadn't transformed all the accumulated heat and controversy into actual publicity results, then President Pei would definitely have taken this step and made the project a hit.
Therefore, Meng Chang had to do the whole set and practice the Pei-style promotion method from beginning to end, including the final detonation. Because only in this way would he be considered to have completed President Pei's requirements, without causing President Pei any trouble, and he would be more at ease when taking the commission.
Now, President Pei praised him in person, saying that Meng Chang had finally gotten the hang of it and found the right way to get a commission, which was no longer an implication, but an explicit indication.
In the future, he would have to do promotion in this correct way!
Ninety-eight thousand.
Meng Chang couldn't even remember how long it had been since he had seen so much money.
It was too difficult!
Although he only got half of the full commission, Meng Chang didn't have any complaints, because he was very clear that his use of the Pei-style promotion method was not particularly skilled, and there was still a lot of room for improvement.
"Thank you, President Pei, for your unwavering teachings!"
"I didn't understand at first, and I misunderstood you. I'm very sorry!"
Meng Chang handed the laptop back and thanked him repeatedly.
Pei Qian waved his hand with a smile: "No need, no need, we are in a cooperative relationship, we help each other."
"Then, this month's promotion work has come to a perfect end. You don't have to worry about the follow-up matters of Chaolu Games platform."
"Come over again next week, and I will arrange the latest promotion plan for you."
Meng Chang nodded excitedly: "Okay, President Pei!"
...
Leaving President Pei's office, Meng Chang became cheerful.
This feeling was great!
In fact, after he understood the details of the Pei-style promotion method, he also compared his previous promotion methods with the Pei-style promotion method.
In the end, he found that it was inferior in all aspects!
He willingly admitted defeat.
Meng Chang's previous promotion method was one word: leech! He had to leech on any hot topic, and if there was no hot topic, he had to create one himself. In short, he would spend money like crazy around a hot topic, and he could always attract people's attention.
Meng Chang used to think that this was the best marketing plan in the Internet age.
After all, in the Internet age, the most precious thing is always attention, and a plan that can attract a lot of attention must be a good plan, right?
But after learning the Pei-style promotion method, Meng Chang realized that he was completely wrong.
The popularity he snatched with his promotion plan was all fake and would dissipate with a gust of wind.
And the popularity snatched by the Pei-style promotion method was all real. These classic marketing plans could even be included in textbooks and would still be talked about for many years to come!
In addition, Meng Chang used to only pay attention to marketing and not to the product, so he burned a lot of money, but in the end, he only burned out loneliness.
On the other hand, President Pei not only had much better marketing methods, but also could really come up with products with excellent quality.
How could he possibly win?
He could only say that he lost without injustice.
Although Meng Chang's previous promotion plan brought in popularity, he still had a feeling of unease in his heart. Although he kept trying to convince himself, a fake was a fake and could not become real.
When a person does something wrong, knowing that it is wrong, but for money and for profit, he comes up with various excuses to convince himself. Sometimes he feels that he has been convinced and accepts this matter, but the feeling of drifting and helplessness in his heart will still linger from time to time.
Now, Meng Chang took this commission with peace of mind.
Because he felt that what he had done for Chaolu Games platform using the Pei-style promotion method was completely worthy of this 100,000 commission.
Of course, there was still one last step, which was to send out this video and put a perfect end to this Pei-style promotion method.
Presumably, President Pei should also be looking forward to the acceptance of his results, right?
...
...
September 1st, Saturday.
Yan Qi didn't go to work today and was resting normally.
*Blade of Empire* had been developed, and there were no bugs after it was launched. It was operating normally, so the project team naturally had no reason to work overtime.
However, Yan Qi's worries had not diminished at all, but had become even stronger.
Because he calculated that in another week, *Blade of Empire* would probably be removed from the platform along with other games.
The first batch of games that were launched were basically hovering on the verge of being removed due to their poor recommendation rates. The reason why they had survived until now was only because the players were still keeping them to find bugs.
When the bug-finding event was over, and many angry players stirred things up, wouldn't these games be killed off at the speed of light?
Other games would probably find it difficult to escape the same fate.
The only way was to extend the bug-finding event, or to hold it several more times, but the problem was that there were originally no serious bugs in the games on the platform! If the players didn't find any the first time, would they look again next time? Could the event still attract players?
Probably not.
Previously, Chaolu Games platform had reassured the representatives of various companies in the group, saying that everyone should not be impatient and that this matter would definitely be resolved, but it was already the weekend and there was still no news.
Probably hopeless.
Yan Qi was a little melancholy.
This bug-finding event did bring a large number of players to *Blade of Empire*, and even made the game's servers full in the early stages of operation. The popularity far exceeded Yan Qi's expectations, but the key was that this kind of popularity could not be sustained at all!
What was the use of high short-term popularity if the game was going to be removed soon? It was too inappropriate to work so hard to make a game and then turn it into a one-time deal.
Yan Qi struggled for a long time, but he still couldn't think of any way to break the situation, so he sighed and let nature take its course.
He opened the Aili Island website and browsed some videos.
"Huh? Teacher Qiao has a new update?"
As a game producer, Yan Qi also liked to watch Teacher Qiao's videos.
Because by analyzing Tenda Games' videos through Teacher Qiao, he could always learn some new knowledge and gain some new inspiration!
President Pei's game design ideas were wild and unconventional, and ordinary people found it difficult to follow and understand. But through Teacher Qiao's interpretation, he could understand a little bit, which was very helpful.
"Huh? It's just a repost."
Yan Qi was a little disappointed. He originally thought that Teacher Qiao had updated a video, but when he took a look, it was just a repost of someone else's video.
Other fans were also obviously very disappointed and urged him to update, but Teacher Qiao obviously didn't plan to show his face in the comments section and be caught alive.
Yan Qi didn't want to watch it at first, after all, many of the upvoter's video reposts were just quid pro quo deals and favors, and the quality of the reposted videos was uneven, so they might not be worth watching.
But after Yan Qi saw the title of this video, he immediately clicked on it without hesitation.
*Chaolu Games Platform: A Soul-Searching Question for Every Player!*
Seeing this title, Yan Qi felt very surprised and curious.
There was actually an upvoter who noticed the matter of Chaolu Games platform and even made a video to interpret it?
Although Chaolu Games platform was a newly opened platform, it had indeed been very popular recently, so it was not surprising that there were interpretation videos.
What surprised Yan Qi was that the title of this video was too outrageous!
How was it a "soul-searching question"?
This word was too heavy!
But it was precisely because this title was written a bit exaggerated and was reposted by Teacher Qiao that Yan Qi still clicked on it out of curiosity.
The author of the video was "Young Master Tian", and the editing of the video looked very sophisticated. It used some materials from Chaolu Games platform and perfectly matched the explanation of the entire beauty process.
The only problem was that this Young Master Tian didn't use his own voice, but used Aeeis artificial intelligence to automatically generate the audio for the entire text!
After the continuous updates and iterations of the Numa Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, Aeeis as an artificial intelligence has been optimized to a certain extent compared to the original version, such as becoming more fluent in speaking and more reasonable in punctuation.
Of course, Aeeis is still the original neutral mechanical voice, and the cheap, seemingly mocking human intelligence style has still been retained.
This style always makes people subconsciously feel that it seems to have its own ideas, so that this video is like it was made by Aeeis itself.
