After Wu Song threw Kant into prison, he hurried back to Qidao. As soon as he entered the house, he told Kikuno and Sirona what he saw and heard in Yangxin City.
Sirona ate the cream cake brought by the Cream Fairy, not taking Wu Song's words to heart at all.
She felt that Wu Song was thinking too much.
"Isn't it normal for a highly commercialized alliance to operate like this? You are really making a fuss."
Sirona continued: "Last year, because Galar no longer prohibited the flow of elf eggs and opened up research information, more people know about the Galar region than before."
"As early as the first meeting after the annual holiday, someone in the Sinnoh Alliance predicted that there would be a trend with Galar elements in the future."
"Is there such a meeting?" Wu Song didn't remember that he attended it, and he was sure that Sirona had not left Qidao once this year. When did she attend the meeting?
"I asked you if you wanted to come to the room for a video conference, but you said you were going to play two games with Cattleya, so you refused me directly."
Wu Song covered his forehead: "Is this the case?"
Kikuno on the side was drinking tea and said: "I also invited you. You said that we would tell you after we participated. It was still interesting to play against Cattleya, so in the end we just skipped the meeting."
"So you all think this is normal propaganda?"
"Let's put it this way, the second year after I became the champion, I went to Hoenn to participate in an event. At that time, I learned from the Four Heavenly Kings Genji that I was one of the most popular trainers in Hoenn at that time, on par with Daigo and Mikoli.
"
"Not only Hoenn, the Sinnoh Alliance at that time put a lot of effort into promoting me. Just ask Cattleya. I was also very popular in the Unova region at that time. Even Adek made fun of me and said that I was a
Women can compete with me in the ring."
"So this is nothing to make a fuss about. It is just the result of normal publicity and the rise of folk customs."
"Each region is far apart, and trainers in one region lack knowledge of other regions."
"Not everyone wants to travel to other regions, so the information and knowledge of other regions are unfamiliar to them. With this trend, many people will get to know a region for the first time."
"Champions, the Four Heavenly Kings, and even some powerful trainers are to some extent messengers of cultural dissemination, using their personal charm to attract other regions to understand the local culture."
Wu Song thought for a while and looked at Kikuno.
"Boss Kikuno thinks so too?"
Kikuno said: "Galer recently elected a new group of gym owners. If they are strong enough, they can pass the test. It is not surprising to promote them during this period."
"This kind of publicity also has a positive effect on us."
Wu Song was confused. Why didn't he see any positive effects?
"Luther's friend, Ah Li, the gym leader of Curtain City, do you have any impressions?" Kikuno asked.
Wu Song recalled for a while: "You are talking about the karate girl who was almost disqualified from the gym due to the battle assessment, and was beaten by the trainer after winning consecutive battles, and she even lost her self-confidence."
Sirona admired Wu Song for this. Even her own opinions could be heard as sarcastic and teasing. I really don’t know how he spent his time before he became the Four Heavenly Kings, even if he didn’t even get beaten up.
magic.
"That's Lao Huangli you are talking about. Because of a trainer named Xiaozhi and the assistance of Luther, Ali not only recovered his condition, but his strength also improved by leaps and bounds."
"Yangbai, who was assessing her, was very impressed with her progress and even now gives her guidance at the Curtain Gym."
Wu Song didn't understand: "Why does the positive effect you mentioned have to do with Ah Li?"
"The owner of the fighting gym in the Galar region is called Cai Dou. She is a very popular beautiful girl. She can earn money just by looking at her face. She has attracted countless fans with her strength and good looks."
"In the promotional video that Galar made for each of the new gym owners, Caidou's personal video contains scenes of her fighting against Wei Li."
Kikuno happened to have a computer at hand, so he simply opened the video for Wu Song to watch.
Wu Song read it carefully and finally understood why he became a fan.
There are not only scenes showing the sense of strength and explosive power such as the battle between Caidou and Wei Li, but also scenes of Caidou's usual strict training on himself.
Then the style of painting changed, and I actually photographed Caidou's daily life.
Wearing casual clothes, we went out to play on the street, rested with the elves, and at the end, there was even Caitou holding ice cream and feeding the audience in front of the screen.
Wu Song pulled the video to the comment area.
As expected, the replies were all "My wife fed me ice cream", "PRPRPR", "Love it, love it" etc.
"Understood?" Kikuno asked.
Wu Song nodded in a daze.
"It's very strange to fight against a strange force, but Li can do it too. She can also shoot away Lucario's wave missiles with her eyes closed, and she can compete with Lucario physically."
Kikuno chuckled: "As the face of Curtain City, people compare Ah Li and Caidou every day. Do you think Ah Li will be uncomfortable?"
"Yangbai wanted to leave as soon as he finished the assessment, but suddenly Ah Li begged him to stay and teach for a day."
"Day after day, it's been almost a month." Kikuno laughed, "I think it's pretty good, healthy competition promoted by a sense of crisis."
Sirona used her fingers to scoop out a little bit of the cream that came out of the Cream Fairy's palm, put it into her mouth, felt the delicate cream and mellow milk flavor, and decided to share something more interesting with Wu Song.
"Ah Li and Cai Dou are compared between the host and the host. It's difficult for A'Du."
"I heard people say that people in Kanto and Johto areas are starting to ask whether Chibana is stronger than Adu."
"Of course, this is not the most heart-wrenching thing. Someone asked the two of them who could better represent the title of dragon master, and A'Du was questioned."
"Because several of A'Du's core lineup are not dragon type, but flying type. If you go online and read related discussions, you can have fun all day long."
Just as Qidao was joking about Adu, in a warehouse near the coast in Binhai City, a trio of Team Rocket were happily packing goods related to the Galar region.
"Our method has been learned by others, so let's learn it. Anyway, we were the first to do it, and we have already made a lot of money. Let them follow us and pick up the leftovers."
Kojiro said disdainfully.
Selling Dante and Sirona's products together and writing down the sales of both on the board next to them, Kojiro was able to make a lot of money after the New Year just by relying on this trick.
It's almost June now, and it's time to change tactics. These people are still thinking about tying up Sirona and Dandi to fight in the ring. All they can say is that they can't even get hot leftovers...
