Chapter 165: The Reaction of the Big Six
Jeanne is not stupid, although she does not have the brains to read, but she is quite smart in many areas, she does not need Cesare to explain further the mechanism of profit from the current situation, but wants to control the reactions and movements of all parties so far, so that she can deduce how quickly the event will really spread, and how many people will believe it - the current situation is like a bonus question in the exam, if you don't answer it, maybe you won't lose anything, but once you want to answer it, you must answer it well, otherwise you may end up with a total deduction. "Tell me what most people think about this now, Chesa - the most important of course is Mr. Egger, have you explained to him?"
"I'm telling Bob the truth." Cesare turned on his computer and slide projector, and manipulated a blank document onto the white wall, "but Bob doesn't seem to believe it, and that's probably the attitude of Bruckheimer and Spielberg - of course, I admit that I also deliberately deepened their suspicions." ”
Jenny understands this, and as long as she uses some tone, phrasing, and micro-expressions, she can easily achieve this effect, which belongs to social scheming 102, although it is advanced content, but it is not difficult. "Okay, so they're skeptical of energy?"
"Yes." Cesare established a table, "People now have several suspicions about you, first, that the Reese incident was manipulated by you from the beginning of that dinner, that you were completely behind it, and that the entire incident that swept the Internet was the result of our team's brewing and manipulation. You've got the power to manipulate online public opinion with ease. This suspicion is referred to as the alpha conjecture for the time being. ”
"Second." He continued typing in the document, "They thought you had the power to influence the Olympic judges in general, and they came up with two awards. There are many branches of this conjecture, and there is speculation that you have the support of the Jewish patron, and that the patron has a close relationship with Bob, and that with Bob's guidance, you have accomplished this seemingly impossible task. There are also people who think that in fact, the online public opinion manipulation incident is also a gift from this gold owner, and the person with energy is him and not you. In any case, this suspicion is collectively referred to as the beta conjecture. ”
"The third is to think that all this is pure coincidence, that I am just a very lucky girl." Jeanne tried to help Cesare finish, "Well, does such a person even exist?" ”
"I don't think there is a third theory among people who have the ability to doubt you." "But of course, the people certainly have a third view, and it will continue to do so for a long time." Anyone with alpha or beta conjectures would not spread these two theories to the outside world, after all, this is a game in the circle - the first rule of the fight club: we don't talk about the fight club, at least not about it to outsiders. ”
Jenny nodded: Now that she has stepped on the sweetest fruit of the year, many people may hate her, but spread the news of her award. The curtain is tantamount to setting fire to the orchard. The scandal was solved, the credibility of the Olympic Awards was greatly reduced, and she was by no means the most uncomfortable. "Now, then, I think the Olympian judges must know that the beta conjecture is pure nonsense—"
"Yes, but they're likely to believe the alpha conjecture, and at the same time, they'll be tight-lipped about the truth of the beta conjecture." "You may not know that only the members of the rotating committee have access to the exact distribution of votes for nominations," Cesare said. According to the information that the notary public at PricewaterhouseCoopers revealed to me, I deduced that this detailed data must have been known to both Michelle and Rachel's team, which is why it caused such a dramatic result. It is conceivable that, for the rotating committee, they would rather people think that someone had manipulated the entire jury than that it would be known that it was actually the result of a leak by someone on the rotating committee. ”
"It makes sense, so the only people who know the truth of the beta conjecture are us and them, we will not leak it, and the probability of them leaking the secret is extremely low, and it may even be the other way around to affirm the truth of the beta conjecture." Cesare continued to reason, "So for the vast majority of insiders, there is indeed a mysterious force behind you now, which can manipulate online public opinion and the Olympic award judges. And because your background is too simple and lacks imagination, most people will not think that this power is built and manipulated by you. ”
"I know, a lot of people say it's because you have a background," Jenny smiled, "of course, it's all netizens -- and so on." ”
Noticing a subtle change in Cesare's expression, she hurriedly asked, "Aren't netizens the only ones who have such conjectures?" What happened? Don't tell me your clients really think you have such a resource and are just using it for me. ”
Cesare hesitated, "For the record, this is just to visualize the current situation - I don't want you to talk about it with anyone else." ”
He took out his phone, pressed a few buttons, and turned on the amplifier.
"Chesa." The female voice on the other end of the phone was obviously a little drunk, and there was a messy sound of cups colliding in the background, "I just watched the news - I thought I should call, call and say congratulations." ”
Jeanne raised an eyebrow at Cesare, who made an innocent gesture.
"I guess you should be smoking a cigar in your mansion right now and celebrating your victory, aren't you?" Bell's voice suddenly whimpered, "Why? Chesa, why? Is she so special to you? I listened to you for everything, I followed you for five years, Chesa, I didn't even see Oscar's shadow - and what about her? It's only been since you signed her, how much do you love this girl, isn't an Oscar good enough for her? ”
She literally started crying, "Why? What am I not doing well enough? Or did I fail your test? You're totally torturing and punishing me, I know, making me look more and more like a fool, watching others enjoy what is rightfully mine—"
Cesare cut off the recording, and Jenny exclaimed, "Don't—I haven't heard enough!" ”
"I'm not playing this recording so that you can appreciate Bell's gaffe." Cesare said in a disapproving tone, paused, and added, "Besides, she's commenting on a lot of messages, almost half an hour long, which is a waste of time - I'm just trying to illustrate what most of the team thinks about it, and even many people within the CAA have such a ridiculous understanding." ”
"Oh, if Leo and Chris believe you really have the energy." Jenny realized the seriousness of the problem, "So you're in trouble?" ”
"On the contrary," Cesare frowned, "I should say that I am more attractive—if I can do it once, why can't I do it again?" Now even Chris suspects that his award is the result of a behind-the-scenes manipulation by me, Diaz asked to return to my agent team this morning, and she is even willing to appoint me as her agent just like you, and if I want, it will be difficult for Eno to even sit on his CEO throne for another day. ”
"Okay." Jenny twisted her eyebrows, it seems that she is underestimating the appeal of power in Hollywood. "Do you want to exchange more strategic benefits for the big dream through this common misconception? But there is always a day when it will be debunked, after all, every trade you make is based on future Olympic awards. Even if we get enough benefits in exchange now, we will be retaliated against if we can't claim the prize in the future. ”
"Yes, it is unwise and frivolous to use this misunderstanding to elevate big dreams, or to seek benefits on the path of an agent's career." "But now we don't have nothing in our pockets, we still have the Puppeteer as a bargaining chip, and this is the time to monetize the Puppeteer." ”
He took a sip of his coffee and suddenly changed his attitude again, "You now know everything I figured out this morning, you know the reactions of the bigwigs, the celebrities, and the information they can get in the next period of time, take this as another lesson for you, Jenny, think about how you can solve this problem and what benefits you can get from the current situation." ”
"You're suddenly not in a hurry to go back to rest now?" Jenny instinctively asked, but quickly raised her hand to apologize, "OK, OK, I shouldn't have avoided an opportunity to learn—"
Although her current mental state is not the best because of the disorder of her biological clock, Jenny still struggles to get herself excited, and she says her thought process, "Well, the Reese incident has made everyone see the importance of online marketing, and also see what kind of damage a bad online marketing can bring to celebrities." So, now the Big Six definitely want an online marketing team as well, and they should be the team that wants the level of puppeteers - the best team. ”
"They can build themselves, but they don't have much experience, and for a large group, the bigger the structure, the slower the response and the less efficient it is." Jenny was a little frowning. "We can trade the puppeteer's model and experience - not all, of course, but it is valuable enough for them - to exchange the resources we need to build the distribution department of Big Dreams!"
"You're on the right path." Cesare nodded. "But the idea is still too rough, pay attention to the information I gave you earlier, none of them are superfluous."
Not...... Jeanne recalled what Cesare had just said: no one knew the truth of the beta conjecture, and even the Prize Committee would confirm it...... "Oh! Mystify online marketing! Combine alpha and beta and use beta as an alpha smokescreen! ”
She understood Cesare's thoughts, and Jenny jumped up and paced up and down the room. "Let's not deny the existence of this false backstage, let us become his agents. Buying and selling Olympic awards? No, he won't run the Olympics for strangers, but I still have the power to use his network marketing army, as long as we can give enough benefits to Da Meng, and of course enough money, we can do online public opinion control for you, right? This can protect the puppeteer, and make the six big ones have scruples about the big dream, and dare not use too drastic means to crush us, and even make a step forward in many cases-am I right? ”
"Very thoughtful." Cesare smiled again—reserved, but with a hint of mischievousness, as if he had just managed to play a prank. But you still think of the Big Six as a little too simple. For the Big Six, what they need is an online public opinion control tool that can serve them anytime and anywhere, rather than a monopoly company that has to negotiate every time it is used, and the terms are increasingly unfair. If such a strategic weapon is not in their hands, then they would rather build one themselves than give their weakness to someone else...... In fact, for such weapons, there will only be one reaction from the Big Six. ”
"What's the reaction?" In business, Cesare was definitely her teacher, and Jeanne had put on a listening, teachable attitude.
"Did you admit to Bob last night that we were involved in the Reese affair?" Cesare did not answer the rhetorical question.
Jenny nodded, pleading herself, "My feeling was that if I didn't admit it, Bob would lose trust in me - he must have had a very mature opinion of his own. ”
"I don't blame you." Cesare said, "Just to confirm one of my conjectures -- I guessed right, it seems -- that Bob contacted me this morning: Disney is interested in buying Big Dream, with an initial offer of 200 million, and the possibility of an increase." ”
For such a weapon, the six will only have one reaction -- since it is so easy to use, and it does not belong to its own enemy for the time being, then the best and most efficient way is, of course, to buy it.
