Chapter 148: Water Water
A public apology?
The media is ecstatic, not afraid that you will make wild remarks and create an incident, but afraid that you will shrink back and ask for peace. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info where does the news come from when everyone lives in peace, and how to make money without news.
After adding oil and vinegar to the media, Tao Yingshuang's words became like this:
"The new owner of St. Martin issued a provocation to Adelaide. β
Ying Shuang Tao said that Adelaide was nothing more than that. β
"The new owner of St. Martin: Adelaide is the king of bragging. β
"Compared with the sales of best-selling authors, arrogant and ignorant. β
In short, how energetic those media are and how to write. When the American imperialist people saw these news, they were immediately unhappy. You don't know from which horn you ran out of, the turtle actually looks down on our American imperialist's best-selling writer, it's too arrogant.
And so the group ridicule began. Many originally neutral and soy sauce players also joined Adelaide's camp, accusing Tao Yingshuang of being too arrogant and not knowing how to respect his predecessors.
As for Adelaide's many fans, not to mention, shouting the slogan of boycotting "Harry Potter" and letting that ignorant Chinese get out of the United States. More extreme went to the headquarters in St. Martin to protest the abuse.
When such a thing happened, Tao Yingshuang and the others were not only not angry, but extremely happy. Edlaide didn't answer after they said it, and everyone is not stupid, and it is easy to see that they are taking the opportunity to hype, and they are naturally unwilling to take the bait easily. But when something like this happens, Adelaide just can't even think about it.
As the manager of the publicity and communication department, Sid did not name a writer and accused the quality of his fans for being too poor. Later, he simply put the blame on Adelaide, saying that he didn't dare to respond openly, but he made small moves behind his back and let fans come over to make trouble.
Intended to obstruct St. Martin's normal work and obstruct the pre-sale preparations for Harry Potter for ulterior purposes.
The media doesn't care how much water there is in this statement, to put it bluntly, they all know that this must be St. Martin's taking the opportunity to hype. But so what, they don't want justice but topics.
So Sid's words appeared in the media as they were, and he also took the trouble to analyze the possibility of this matter. If it was just the media doing this, it would be nothing, and many writers suddenly changed their tune, openly and secretly saying that Adelaide suppressed newcomers and maliciously hyped up.
Don't think that the US imperialists are undisciplined, everything is for the sake of profit. They scolded St. Martin because the promotion of "Harry Potter" was so strong that they felt that their interests might be compromised. Now the reverse is against Edlaide, the same is true.
And Adelaide is not St. Martin, and his work is not Harry Potter. The latter is not famous because of hype, and it is not certain whether it can become a threat.
But the former is different, it is a regular on the bestseller list, a famous writer with a large mass base in the United States, and his threat is real. Once Adelaide's book is allowed to be released normally, their interests will definitely be damaged.
I didn't dare to use such a method before, because the opponent's strength was too strong, and I was afraid that I would be injured if I didn't succeed in fighting the tiger. But now there are people standing in front to attract fire, and they don't mind fanning the flames behind their backs.
Adelaide is not alone, he also has friends. These people were not happy to see him being accused, and jumped out to accuse each other of slander.
It's a good thing now, the puddle of water in the American imperialist literary world has been completely muddyed. You accuse me, I accuse you. The readers who read it were dazzled and didn't know who to listen to.
Originally, Adelaide's side had the upper hand, but something happened that turned the tide around. Again, the problem is with his fans. There is a saying that one powder is top ten black, and there is still some truth in this sentence. His fans act as a pig teammate.
Adelaide has been condemned by so many people, and it is all St. Martin's fault in the eyes of those fans. If it weren't for the fact that they had slandered their idols, how could this have happened? No, we have to be angry with our idols.
So a group of fans blocked the door of St. Martin again, saying that what they did last time had nothing to do with the idol, and asked St. Martin to apologize to the idol. Tao Yingshuang and the others naturally did not agree, and the situation was deadlocked.
Soon, a fan who had reached the limit of patience went to the extreme, smashing the glass door of San MartΓn. Then the scene got out of hand...... What started as a simple demonstration turned into smashing violence.
Although only a few people were involved, only the glass door and the welcome desk were smashed, and a few employees scraped a little skin during the pushing. But the nature has completely changed.
The war of words is only a conversation after tea and dinner, and there is no legal responsibility. But escalating a war of words into violence is a different story. And the first to do it is always unreasonable, as is the case in most countries.
Then Tao Yingshuang smiled.
"If you hadn't said it, I would have suspected that those people were actors you hired. Zhu Ziqing said with a smile.
"I didn't expect that either. Originally, I was worried that being scolded too hard would affect sales, and I was thinking about whether to invest some more money in it and brush up on some praise. And that's what happened. Tao Yingshuang's smiling mouth couldn't close.
"I guess Edlaide has a headache now, right?" said Zhu Ziqing.
"Definitely. Now the media is almost condemning him, and few people speak for him. Many of the people who scolded us have also changed their attitudes. The old boy was forced to come out and apologize, not to mention how ugly his face was. Tao Yingshuang made no secret of his gloating.
"Did he come out and apologize?" asked Zhu Ziqing.
"Well, just this morning. This incident was caused by his fans, and he couldn't get out of it whether he knew it or not. Taking the initiative to apologize is the best way to deal with it. Tao Ying Shuangdao.
Many of the fans' behaviors have to come out and take the blame, whether the idol knows it or not. Pretending not to know is the next step, and it is the most stupid to put the blame on the fans, and it depends on the situation when you come out. If you take the initiative to apologize, you can still have a good reputation, and you can also take the opportunity to brush up on the favorability of fans.
"The American imperialists are so extreme. Zhu Ziqing said.
"There are a lot of people with extreme ideas in the United States, especially young people, and you will know it when you have lived here for a while. Just think about the fact that the number of criminal offenses in a country with more than 300 million people is 10 times higher than in a country with more than 1.3 billion people. Tao Ying Shuangdao.
"Then you have to be careful in the future, it's better to hire a few bodyguards. In case you have three long and two short, your big beauty is someone else's. Zhu Ziqing joked.
"Fuck off, did you say that about the elders. "Tao Ying has dual airways.
"Huh...... What about the publishing house? β
"What's more, it's almost a vegetable market. This fan disturbance also helped us inadvertently. Originally, I was afraid that a large number of employees would be fired and there would be a backlash, but now I don't know how many people have come and quit themselves. Some of them left happily when they heard that they could get an extra month's salary compensation. I don't know how much it saves us. β
"That's a crooked hit. I wonder what these people will look like in a month's time. β
"You'll always have confidence in yourself. β
"That's for sure, not one Adelaide, but three or five best-selling authors, I can knock them down with a single finger. β
"Blow, keep blowing. One Adelaide is not easy to deal with, and there are still three or five coming. You think it's the Bible. I don't want to surpass him, as long as I don't lose too badly. β
It's not that Tao Yingshuang is ambitious, it's really Adelaide and his "Save the Earth 2" are really too powerful. The first one set off a reading trend in the world, and it was later adapted into a movie, which also caused a frenzy of movie-watching.
The second book can be said to be highly anticipated, and the pre-sale alone exceeded the final sales of most books, leaving Harry Potter several streets behind. Tao Yingshuang really can't see any hope of winning.
"If you don't believe it, forget it. How's the pre-sale of the book going?"
"Twenty-seven thousand. Not ideal, but not bad. β
Of course, this figure is not as good as that of the domestic one. Printing Zhu Ziqing's name in China can pre-sell more than 100,000 copies, but he has never proven his ability to write long stories abroad. It's nice to have so many.
"yes, that's good. I thought it would be nice to be able to pre-sell a few thousand copies. It seems that the US imperialists are still very deceived. β
"It's too early to deceive or not, let's wait for the book to come out. How is it over there, I heard Xiaoya say that the news here has spread to China, and many people have a lot of criticism about you. β
"Yes, but don't worry about them, they can't make waves. β
The online world is very fast, and it is too difficult to block messages. Although there is a wall between the domestic network and the foreign network, many people still communicate through various methods through the wall. Therefore, a lot of foreign news can be quickly transmitted to China. It's just that after all, it's a message that jumped over the wall, and it will be distorted many times.
Tao Yingshuang hyped "Harry Potter" so hot, he couldn't even be noticed if he wanted to, not to mention that Zhu Ziqing was involved in it. Not many people know the name Qiya abroad, but there are very few people who don't know it in China.
Of course, when Chinese people first saw the name Qiye, they thought it was a coincidental name. Later, it turned out that this was not the case, and the two were the same person. Zhu Ziqing actually wrote a Western magic novel quietly.
At first, people didn't believe what these people said, thinking it was a joke. Zhu Ziqing is so busy, how can he have time to write Western magic novels, and he has never heard of it before.
Those people also have evidence, so they cut out those reports and comments of US imperialism. The evidence is ironclad, and you can't believe it. Zhu Ziqing also confirmed the news at the Seven Nights House. It's lively now, and netizens are discussing this matter everywhere. The media was not willing to be lonely, and used headlines such as 'Seven Nights Marching into the American Imperialist Literary Circle'.
In the first few days, Tao Yingshuang desperately threw money, and there were praises everywhere, so that people in China thought that Qiye had conquered the US imperialists. Nature is with honor.
But the good times didn't last long, and the wind direction changed. Soon everyone found out that things were not what they thought, and it turned out that those praises were all swiped out with money.
It's like stabbing a hornet's nest...... (To be continued.) )
