Huang Sibo did not expect that Meng Chang would trust Mr. Pei so much.
But he himself always felt that the risk was too high.
This is a country’s election, not a child’s play!
After all, the country of Uklaia has a population of 20 to 30 million. With so many people participating in the vote, Mr. Pei can be sure that they will vote for a comedian to be president? You must know that most media also think that the current president’s re-election is a high probability.
What an event!
But now that I think about it, Mr. Pei should have thought of tying the episodes of "Successor" to this foreign drama at the beginning of the broadcast of "Successor", otherwise he would not have specifically limited the time.
You have to die like this.
What is the difference between this kind of bondage and that of a gambler?
If Vasily the Great is elected, he will make a lot of money and "Successors" will take off.
But what if Vasily the Great is not elected? Then this is not news at all. By then, it will be the best outcome for others to use this matter to ridicule "Successors". The more likely outcome is that no one in the country pays attention to it at all.
In this matter, Mr. Pei's preparations were completely in vain.
In other words, Mr. Pei has pinned the fate of "Successor" on a country thousands of kilometers away that is beyond reach.
If you win the bet, you will become a god on the spot.
If the bet fails, then all the huge investment in the early stage of "Successor" will be wasted, and even Feihuang Studio's brand will have to be used.
But now, there is nothing we can do.
Huang Sibo came to Meng Chang for discussion, hoping that Meng Chang would find a way to reverse the situation.
Meng Chang thought about it for a long time and found that Mr. Pei had already left a brilliant idea.
But the content of this clever plan is to continue to wait for the results of the general election in Ukelaya.
In the end, nothing could be done.
"Well, now I can only choose to believe Mr. Pei."
Huang Sibo had no choice but to get up and leave, continue to do his own business, and then wait patiently.
Walking to the advertising and marketing department, Huang Sibo took out his mobile phone and called Cui Geng.
"Have you paid attention to the election in Uclair before?" Huang Sibo asked.
Cui Geng's confused voice came from the phone: "The election in Uclaya? Is it this year?"
Huang Sibo: "It's okay."
It seems that Meng Chang's speculation is correct. Cui Geng knows nothing about this matter. When he wrote "Successor", there was no sign of this matter at all. This is purely a coincidence.
It seems that Mr. Pei was the strategist, keenly aware of the connection between the two things, and arranged the linkage between the two without everyone knowing.
But there is no guarantee for this kind of thing, so we can only wait patiently.
…
After Huang Sibo left, Meng Chang began to revise his publicity plan.
Since the situation changes, it is necessary to adapt to the situation and adjust immediately.
Just like the last publicity plan, I found that the Home Group wanted to gain popularity, so I used the identity of Mr. Tian to post the video in advance. Although this directly led to a sharp drop in commission income, Pei's publicity method was still a great success, and Meng Chang also
Through Fan Xiaodong's short selling of the housing group's stock, he obtained an income that far exceeded the commission.
It's the same thing this time.
The original plan was no longer feasible. As soon as Qian's comment came out, Meng Chang's road was blocked.
But it doesn't matter, Mr. Pei has already pointed out a clear path.
Meng Chang decided to adjust his plan and use Mr. Tian to post a video at the end of this month to directly refute Qian’s statement!
Before Qian's statement affects the audience on a large scale and forms a stereotype about "Succession", he will use tit-for-tat arguments to maintain the last public opinion position of "Succession" and at the same time wait for opportunities to counterattack.
After the last episode of "Successor" is aired and the final results of the general election in Ukraia are announced, it will be time for Mr. Tian to launch a full-scale counterattack with "Successor"!
Of course, all this is based on the premise that Vasily the Great, a comedian, really won the election in Ukraia.
If you don't choose, then completely GG.
By then, "Successor" will be scrapped, so much of the filming and publicity funds will be wasted, and Mr. Tian's account will be scrapped. Feihuang Studio's reputation will not collapse, but it will definitely be affected. The most important thing is that
, within Tengda, Mr. Pei’s undefeated golden status has also been shattered.
I have to say, this is a big gamble.
But Meng Chang doesn't care at all. After all, Mr. Pei pays for the publicity funds and so on. If Mr. Pei is willing to just go ahead and make a big bet, then let's do it!
Of course, this is definitely not to encourage mindless gambling. Betting on dog biss is for sure. In any case, the mentality of a gambler is undesirable. There is only one result of stupid gambling, which is the destruction of the family and life, and life is worse than death.
But Mr. Pei’s huge gamble obviously stems from his analysis of social reality, his insight into human nature, and his prediction of what will happen in the future.
Just like venture capital and stock buying, you do not place your hopes on illusory probabilities and luck, but based on your own logical judgment.
Mr. Pei is very stable when he should be stable, strategizing without making any mistakes, but when he needs to take risks, he does not hesitate.
Meng Chang felt that it didn't matter even if Mr. Tian's account was abolished. He didn't invest anything in this account anyway, it was just a derivative of Pei's propaganda method.
Next, Meng Chang will focus on this publicity plan and invest a lot of money in a second round of publicity offensive, so that "Successor" will be discussed more highly and popular.
That means putting more chips on the table.
If you win, you earn more; if you lose, you lose more.
After deciding on the plan, Meng Chang was already prepared to cut his commission in half this month.
Originally, the popularity of "Successor" was extremely low, and its ratings plummeted due to Qian's negative manuscript. Meng Chang could get a high commission without doing anything.
And if Mr. Tian posts a video and goes head-to-head with Qian, the popularity of "Successor" will definitely increase, and the reputation may also rise slightly.
Although the popularity will not fully explode until the middle of next month, the commission this month will definitely not be very large.
Meng Chang felt very distressed, but for the success of Pei's propaganda method, he had to give up these commissions like last time.
"Is there any way to make some extra money to restore health like last time?"
Since the last time he got a taste of the benefits from Fan Xiaodong, Meng Chang has been out of control, and even the commission is a bit unappealing.
After all, Pei's propaganda method, a dragon-slaying technique, is only used to earn a commission, which is really a waste of resources.
But this time it has nothing to do with the company, so shorting the stock is unlikely.
Meng Chang thought about it for a long time, and suddenly had an idea. He searched the Internet for the odds of the Ukraia election, and found that the odds of Da Vasily reached more than five points!
Of course, this matter is definitely illegal in China, and Meng Chang would definitely not dare to mess around.
But Fan Xiaodong is abroad, and according to local laws, this is legal.
Meng Chang immediately called Fan Xiaodong.
"Xiaodong, how much money do I have with you now?" Meng Chang asked.
Fan Xiaodong probably made a slight estimate and said, "More than two hundred thousand dollars."
Meng Chang paused for a moment and seemed to have made up his mind: "If you agree, I want to bet all the money on the big Vasily of Ukraia."
Fan Xiaodong looked confused: "I don't agree with it. This is your money. You can use it however you want."
"but……"
"Euklaya? Who is Vasily the Great? Why can't I understand what you are saying at all?"
Meng Chang said: "Go and check it yourself about the Ukraia election."
Fan Xiaodong was silent for a while, and then said in shock: "General election? Are you going to vote for this person to be elected as the president of Uclaya? Brother, are you crazy?"
"This man is an actor. He came to participate in the general election just to be funny. Although the odds of 5:00 seem quite tempting, what does it matter if the odds are higher for something that is absolutely impossible to happen? What you are doing is suicide.
!”
"That's two hundred thousand dollars!"
"Or, you got some gossip from within Tengda..."
"It's not right either... Tenda is just an ordinary company, how could it still manipulate the Ukraia election..."
Meng Chang's behavior completely confused Fan Xiaodong.
Fan Xiaodong was really convinced about the previous incident with the Home Group.
But that was a commercial act after all, and it was equivalent to Mr. Pei setting a trap for the Home Group through Chi Xing Studio.
Mr. Pei can control this kind of thing, so Fan Xiaodong believes it.
But what happened to the general election in Uklaia? Not to mention the impact, it was even impossible to obtain inside information?
This thing depends on the final voting results. Everyone's judgment can only be said to be a prediction, which may or may not be accurate. There are too many uncontrollable factors, and there is no way to ensure that the prediction is accurate.
It's really crazy to throw 200,000 dollars into it all at once.
Meng Chang was very determined: "I can't explain too much, but since I want to do this, there must be a basis for it."
"It's really a failure. It's nothing more than a waste of two hundred thousand dollars. Just pretend that the incident with the Home Group never happened. It's just an external possession. I don't feel bad if I lose it."
"But if it works, I can pay off all the debts directly and even have some leftover!"
"If we don't take a chance at this time, we will never have such an opportunity again in the future."
Meng Chang felt that Mr. Pei dared to stake so many things, including the filming and publicity funds for "Successor" and even the reputation of Feihuang Studio. If he failed, wouldn't he lose more than himself?
What is two hundred thousand dollars compared to Mr. Pei’s investment?
What's more, Meng Chang's own personality is very keen on taking risks and has a gambler's mentality. It would be fine if he didn't know about this opportunity. If he knew about it, he would definitely not let it go.
Mr. Pei said that he was not sure, so there must be a certain element of humility. No matter what, it was worth a try.
Fan Xiaodong was silent, obviously completely shocked by Meng Chang.
He even began to have some doubts about Tengda's background, wondering whether Meng Chang was working for Tengda or whether he had joined some strange and mysterious organization...
After a long time, Fan Xiaodong said: "Okay, then I'll do as you say. I'll also invest 50,000 symbolically. If it happens, I'll make a lot of money."

PS. The show effect in the book is just for fun. Just like the previous short selling, no one should really take it seriously. The fictional world, time and place are all fictitious... One more word, dog biss,
Spinach is illegal in our country. Don't touch anything like this, or even understand it. If you touch it, the only result will be bankruptcy. Remember this.
