Chapter 1358 Tailor-Made "Second Entry" for Qiao Liang

If Meng Chang was right, then different groups would definitely be arguing endlessly after the release of *Successor*.

When people watch promotional content, they tend to pick and choose what interests them.

The promotion of many movies is a bit like a "Frankenstein's monster," trying to attract as many viewers who like different genres as possible.

But this approach is often heavily criticized.

Take *Successor* as an example. Through this kind of promotion, viewers who like superhero themes will come to watch, they may have never heard of the original work and think that *Successor* is a normal superhero movie; while people who know something about the content of *Successor* will also come to watch, with another kind of expectation.

This is bound to create a polarized evaluation.

The reactions of these two groups will definitely be different after watching the first three episodes. Some people may burst into curses, and even argue with each other.

At that time, some people will inevitably retaliate by giving low scores, thus achieving the goal of "even though there is already an original work, some people are still deceived by the promotional content."

People who give bad reviews will run away after watching the first three episodes, or even just the first episode. They won't generate much viewership, and they'll lower the score. Isn't that wonderful?

Pei Qian nodded and handed the plan back: "Okay, let's go with this plan."

Although he felt it wasn't perfect, reverse promotion itself was very difficult.

Pei Qian had done so many reverse promotions, and there were quite a few times when they backfired. He was quite satisfied with this plan.

Meng Chang took the plan with both hands, very happy.

Great, the plan was approved by President Pei!

This shows that his understanding of President Pei's promotion method is correct.

Of course, he only wrote half of this plan, and didn't write how to reverse the heat of the promotion in the end.

This was partly because President Pei could definitely guess the second half after seeing the first half, so there was no need to be redundant. On the other hand, it was also because the second half of the plan wasn't completely finalized.

In fact, it was still necessary to wait for the initial promotion plan to come out, see the actual feedback from the audience, and make some adjustments to the subsequent operations.

In any case, Meng Chang felt that he had made obvious progress.

Working at Tengda to pay off debts was indeed very hard, but what if he thought about it differently?

He owed President Pei money, and President Pei still had to teach him real skills. Wouldn't that be a great deal?

The debtor is the boss!

Meng Chang happily took the plan and went to promote it.

…

After watching Meng Chang leave, Pei Qian briefly looked at the work reports sent by various departments.

There were too many departments now, and the departments' businesses were also increasing, so even though Pei Qian emphasized that these departments should keep the work reports as simple as possible, the length of the reports inevitably became longer and longer.

Pei Qian felt dizzy after reading them. After quickly going through them, he couldn't wait to open the Aili Island website and start watching the drama.

After eating lunch, he took a nap. After drinking a cup of coffee to refresh himself, he strolled around the forum and looked at everyone's discussion about the GOG and IOI World Championships.

Looking at the time, it was almost three o'clock. Pei Qian wondered if it was a bit too early to end a hard day's work and leave early.

Then what should he do?

He suddenly thought that he hadn't watched the source of happiness today, so he quickly opened Tuwei Live and started watching Qiao Laoshi's live broadcast.

He had already finished the focus mode time when he was sleeping at noon, so he could watch it directly now.

Seeing that Qiao Laoshi was still at the bottom of all the people in the second phase no matter how hard he tried, Pei Qian couldn't help but feel a long-lost joy.

"Ah, Lao Qiao is really my source of happiness!"

"Is there anything in this world that makes people happier than watching Qiao Laoshi suffer? No, absolutely not!"

"It's a pity that there is only one such suffering."

"What should I do if I want to relive this kind of happiness in the future? I can't watch the replay, that would be too boring."

Pei Qian also knew very well that Qiao Liang came this time mainly because the rigged lottery drew him. So many people were watching, and he had to come in full view of the public.

Moreover, Qiao Liang had obviously underestimated the degree of suffering here.

He couldn't be tricked again next time.

First, the lottery method could only be used once. If Qiao Liang was drawn again next time, it would be a blatant inside job, too fake. Second, Qiao Liang had already experienced the Suffering Travel. Even if he was drawn again next time, he could justifiably say that he had already experienced it and give the opportunity to others.

In short, this should be Qiao Liang's first and last performance in Suffering Travel.

Cherish it while you can!

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

"Huh, why didn't I see Bao Xu today? It's all Sa Ziran leading this group of people in training."

"Could it be that Bao Xu's game addiction has struck and he went to play games?"

While he was wondering, there was a knock on the door outside.

Pei Qian looked up and saw that it was Bao Xu!

"Why are you here?" Pei Qian felt a little surprised.

No wonder he didn't see Bao Xu. It turned out that he had come to him.

Bao Xu handed over a plan: "President Pei, this is my new plan for Suffering Travel. The main thing is to increase the price from 35,000 to 50,000, and add some additional content."

"Additional content?" Pei Qian reached out to take the plan and quickly browsed through it.

"This…"

Pei Qian frowned slightly, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether these measures were good or bad.

The price had increased a lot, from 35,000 to 50,000. For those who came at their own expense, it should have a better deterrent effect.

But the problem was that there were too many benefits!

With the title of an ascetic, they could get special treatment wherever they went, which was quite attractive to many Tengda fans.

Pei Qian originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Qiao Liang suffering in the live broadcast, he suddenly had an idea.

Huh, with this rule, couldn't he let Qiao Liang take the initiative to repeatedly brush Suffering Travel?

With Qiao Liang's personality, he definitely wouldn't be willing to be the last one.

If there was no Bao Xu's plan, it wouldn't matter to Qiao Liang what place he got, but after this plan was implemented, Qiao Liang would probably come to brush his ranking!

At that time, he could see Qiao Liang suffering every one or two months, which would be too happy!

In order to get this kind of happiness, it was worth making a little money!

Moreover, Pei Qian had many people outside the company on his little book, such as Li Shi and Lin Chang, and the lottery method couldn't draw them at all.

But once the ascetic identity launched by Bao Xu was widely recognized, it might be able to deceive them.

Once they were deceived in, they could be deceived in a second time, because they would want to brush their rankings.

Thinking about it this way, this plan still had some merits. At least it was easier to lure people from outside, and the price was raised justified!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian nodded slightly: "Well… it's not a bad attempt."

"But there's a problem. These benefits require the cooperation of various departments. Have they agreed?"

Bao Xu nodded: "Agreed!"

"This morning, I sent this plan to all the relevant department group chats, and they quickly replied to me, fully agreeing and fully cooperating!"

Pei Qian: "…"

Good fellow, Bao Da Ren, your official authority is not small.

Everyone fully cooperates after sending a plan. It seems that everyone is afraid of you.

But this is not a big problem. As long as Bao Xu wholeheartedly makes everyone suffer, he is his pillar of support. What does it matter if his power is a little bigger?

What's more, Pei Qian himself has the real decision-making power over Suffering Travel.

After considering for a moment, Pei Qian said: "The overall plan is ok, but there is a small problem that needs to be changed."

"That is, there are a bit too many benefits for the ascetics."

"I think the rewards for ascetics should focus more on identity recognition, rather than direct benefits."

"In my opinion, the title and record after logging in to the account, the commemorative badges and certificates issued, the communication and exchange among ascetics, etc., are all fine."

"But the benefits should be changed: first, you can't directly give all the benefits to the top after participating in Suffering Travel once. There should be an upgrade process. Of course, this level can't be set too high. Participating in Suffering Travel three times will roughly reach the top, and then the experience of upgrading Suffering Travel will be greatly reduced."

"Secondly, these benefits must be greatly reduced. For example, skipping the one-hour limit of Tuwei Live directly is a bit lacking in flexibility. I think, giving ascetics some time-free coupons regularly, some for a few minutes, some for half an hour, and making some flexibility based on the level of the ascetics, would be fine."

"It is also possible to consider giving these benefits to core users within the industry to a limited extent, so that users can obtain these benefits to a limited extent through other channels within these industries, in addition to becoming ascetics and obtaining all these benefits at once."

"Also, we can give ascetics some special vip preferential treatment in industries such as Touching Fish Internet Cafe and takeout, but don't write it in the announcement, and don't let everyone come to participate in Suffering Travel for this purpose. That would be a bit of a change in flavor."

"Suffering Travel should emphasize an inner spiritual sublimation, and should not have so much utilitarianism."

All of Pei Qian's cuts were tailor-made for Qiao Liang.

Qiao Liang must be more concerned about this title. As for these benefits, they must not be so important to Qiao Liang.

In that case, cut it as much as possible, hide it as much as possible, try not to tempt the ignorant passers-by, and accurately strike people like Qiao Liang, let them come a few more times, that's great.

Bao Xu hesitated slightly: "But President Pei, in this way, the attraction of Suffering Travel to everyone will be greatly reduced. It would be a pity if not many people come to suffer…"

Pei Qian smiled slightly: "It's okay, aren't there enough people within Tengda for you to arrange?"

"Besides, the capacity of Suffering Travel is limited now. Even if you attract so many people all at once, they will have to wait in line slowly. It's better to persuade some of them to quit. If there are not enough people in the future, you can think of other ways."

After considering for a moment, Bao Xu nodded slightly: "Well… that's right."

"Then I'll go and arrange it. I'll try to issue an announcement today, and officially start registration tomorrow."

It is necessary to obtain the consent of other departments to add benefits, but it is not necessary to cut benefits, so it is very convenient to cover.

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, go ahead!"

He couldn't wait to see Qiao Laoshi's second entry, happy!
