Chapter 923: It's All Just Marketing

In 1971, Ray Tomlinson invented e-mail, sending out the first mail.

In 1984, Matti Makonen came up with text messaging and it really came to fruition 8 years later.

These two communication technologies, once popular around the world over the past few decades, are now forgotten by the average user, who has a more convenient and cheaper alternative – instant messaging and social networking services.

Today, the glory of mobile phone SMS is not there, the free SMS quota given by operators is often not used up, the SMS box is either spam advertising or verification SMS, and there is very little private content. The situation of email is also not good, and even if organizations still use it to communicate with the outside world, fewer and fewer people use email regularly, and occasionally open it just to view authentication emails.

However, Atletico is not one of them, this gentleman is not only the most active blogger in the world, but also the most active email user in the world, sending and receiving more than 1,000 emails every day.

The reason for this is naturally because he has a plug-in in his hand, which can make better use of email, which is a text-based and image-supplemented information transmission method. As for the tools such as honey chat and scarf, although they have the advantages of convenience and speed, they also have the defects of scattered content and too much spoken language, and they are not as convenient as the former in collecting and sorting out information.

Not long after Lin Chen clicked send, his email asking for help appeared in front of Atletico Madrid's eyes and successfully piqued the latter's interest.

Looking at the many small balls rolling around in front of him, discharging various formations, a complex smile appeared on the corner of Atletico's mouth. The cat ball has a simple structure, easy to manufacture, and there is no problem with production capacity.

Naturally, this is done in order to artificially create a panic buying atmosphere, so as to achieve hunger marketing.

Due to the identity of pet toys, the potential market for cat walking balls is relatively limited, and the profits that can be contributed are naturally limited. In contrast, "Cat Wars!", as an all-age commercial film, undoubtedly has a stronger market appeal, and will naturally receive more attention and focus.

The proliferation of smartphones has intensified the tendency to look at faces all over the world, making handsome guys and beauties more popular, and at the same time, making all kinds of cute pets and dumb things quickly popular. Compared with people, animal stars do not have the trouble of "interracial face blindness", and at the same time are less affected by off-site factors.

Noticing this trend, Hollywood has launched several pet-themed movies one after another, including live-action shots of animal actors and CG animation synthesis. Bee Shadow is also not far behind, and has joined forces with multinational teams to gather a large number of animal Internet celebrities to create this cute movie full of emojis.

Thanks to its good quality and accurate and efficient publicity, "Cat" has not been released, and the popularity of the Internet has been rising, and everyone is very optimistic about its market performance, and Atletico Madrid has also listed it as a key product of the group to give all-round protection. After the end of the movie, the supply of cat walking balls will gradually increase, but will not be released directly, so that the hunger can continue to be maintained.

As for those copycats that take the opportunity to seize the market, they are not in his eyes. Walking cat ball is not a copycat high imitation quality but a better sneaker jersey, bees have core technology. Copycat products do not have the blessing of artificial intelligence, and their performance is difficult to compare with the genuine version, and they will only become tragic cannon fodder. Giant companies such as Google, IBM, and Du Niang have technology in their hands, but they will not look at such a small business, and there is no time for it.

Putting away these thoughts, Atletico quickly completed his reply to Lin Chen, he expressed sympathy for the latter's plight, and enclosed the letter with three cat ball redemption codes for the other party to go to store 1 tomorrow to collect.

Dropping the email into the auto-send list, Atletico forgot about it and turned their attention to their own snacks.

After many improvements, the bee cat ball has become more and more abundant, and the "character" is becoming more and more prominent, which is not only suitable for walking cats and dogs, but also a first-class stick for coaxing children. At least Atletico thinks so, every time it's his turn to take the child, this kind of smart toys are absolutely indispensable.

Tang Jiayi complained a lot about someone's inattentiveness and irresponsibility, but he just didn't repent, the machine coaxed the baby too conveniently, and Atletico Madrid said that he couldn't stop.

So naturally, after a while, Atletico Madrid once again went into a state of distraction, and their attention turned to their minds, checking the latest news they had just received.

Because of the time difference, North America at this time was still shrouded in darkness, but this did not affect someone to do something. A group of new African immigrants rallied on Twitter and Facebook to call on them to join their AfricanLivesMatter group and take to the streets tomorrow to protest the boycott of YouTube. Their justification is that the latter condones African terrorist groups such as Boko Haram and is indifferent to the lives of African peoples.

Earlier this month, Nigerian officials announced in a high-profile manner that the capture of the last stronghold of Boko Haram by coalition forces had "de facto eliminated the terrorist group." However, it turned out that the Nepalese side had said a lot of things, and the latter soon carried out a number of attacks in the country in color, and posted the latest fighting video on YouTube.

Because of the cumulative deaths of hundreds of people, these attacks have been noticed and reported by international news agencies, but the media in most countries have ignored them, and only conscientious Chinese media such as Yang Aunt and HQ will give full coverage.

There is no doubt that Bee News is also one of these conscientious media, not only reporting these cases in Chinese, but also finding ways to find the original reports of major news agencies and local media, collating and translating them into mainstream languages, and pushing them to users around the world, including African immigrants living in the United States.

For bees, this is nothing more than an on-demand supply caused by machine algorithms, but it turns out to poke at the pain points of African migrants. Because of the low "newsworthiness", the European and American media have never paid much attention to attacks against black Africans, and resentment has long been breeding and accumulating among African immigrant groups.

The reason why Boko Haram is looking for trouble with the latter is because Boko Haram can get a share of advertising from YouTube by uploading videos, and "funding" criminals is obviously a more serious evil than ignoring, and it is only natural that it will attract the most hatred.

Transferring the news to the public relations department, Atletico Madrid was also secretly a little happy in his heart.

Because of the high standards and strict requirements of the domestic authorities, bees have always been very high in the pressure of inappropriate content, and this practice has also been extended to overseas business. This does cause inconvenience to some users and increases operating costs, but it also saves the company a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Of course, the current "AFLM African Lives Matter" movement is not yet a climate, and its combat effectiveness is far worse than that of the imitation object "BlackLivesMatter", which should not cause too much trouble to YouTube. After all, the latter is backed by Google, and its PR staff are all experienced and skilled, so they can completely control the scene.

As the AFLM's "midwife", Atletico's bees have some kindness to the organization. At least for now, this is a positive civil society group, whose activities can help to arouse the attention of the international community to Africa and help North Africa in the fight against terrorism.

And having this group of people start anew, it can also thin out the popularity and attention of the BLM organization, which may bring about some beneficial changes.

The average income of black Americans in the United States is only 60% of the national average, but the crime rate is much higher.

Blacks make up only 12% of the U.S. population, but they "contribute" to about half of the homicides, so they are easy to be paid special attention to by the police. Black Americans often engage in things after the police shoot black suspects, wielding the stick of correctness in protest, and their campaign slogan is vividly translated as "Black Lives Matter."

To be precise, BLM should be translated as "Black Americans are life", because only focusing on the protection of the rights of black Americans is at most the black people in Canada next door, and the nearly one billion poor relatives living in Central and South America and Africa are completely ignored by them.

On the contrary, in the eyes of African-American immigrants with green cards who have not yet been naturalized, the indigenous blacks who are increasingly obsessed with protests are in fact "pig teammates", and their protests have not only helped, but have actually destroyed the employment environment of blacks, and thus all blacks.

Because firing blacks is easier to prosecute, a considerable number of entrepreneurs simply do not allow blacks to join their businesses, and candidates with black names are often screened out at the resume stage as a reflection of this "cold confrontation".

For those native blacks who do not live on wages, resumes and salaries are clouds, but African immigrants who still need to work are unlucky, they are the elite of the 1.1 billion people in Africa, with good education and job skills, but they are often dragged down by American relatives, and lose to whites, Asians, and Indians when applying for jobs.

Therefore, after other groups confronted each other and came up with "AllLivesMatter" and "BlueLivesMatter", African expatriates in the United States also got their own "AFLM African Lives Matter" organization, and aimed the first shot at the YouTube pipe, which had long been big and wealthy.

Even if you can't kill the enemy with one blow, you can take this opportunity to make a name for yourself, and you can use it as a basis to help yourself fight for benefits in the future, just like countless predecessors.
