Before the press conference ended, the Internet was already in an uproar. First, it was the live broadcast of the press conference. Then, it spread to Weibo, WeChat, and other online media channels.
Douyu's front page recommended: "Da Mi Press Conference, Tian Xiangshan and Hongxin Make a Billion-Dollar Bet!"
"A billion-dollar bet?" This title was too attractive. Many netizens who were browsing the live broadcast immediately clicked on it to see the specific situation. Some people even asked on the bullet screen.
"Just arrived, Douyu said a billion. What's a billion?"
Immediately, a veteran explained: "Let me explain to our new friends. Just now, Tian Xiangshan and Hongxin made a bet to compare the sales volume of their first mobile phones. The bet is a billion-dollar bet!"
"A billion! Oh my god, they're rich and capricious! "
"A billion? I don't believe it. It must be a publicity stunt! "
"Hongxin mobile phone? I've never heard of it. I only heard that Da Mi mobile phones are very good. "
"I've checked. There's no Hongxin mobile phone! What's going on? "
…
Penguin News pushed: "First day of the New Year, a billion-dollar bet!"
The majority of QQ and WeChat users immediately saw this news. When they saw the billion-dollar headline, many people clicked on it curiously to understand the situation.
Most users naturally knew about Da Mi mobile phones. As for the Hongxin brand, many people saw this name first.
Although Hongxin's PUBG mobile game was famous, most people would not pay attention to the company that developed the mobile game.
The comments under the news skyrocketed:
"Isn't Hongxin a PC butler? Why is she selling mobile phones? "
"This New Year's Day, I was still eating instant noodles at home. Damn, the big shots bet a billion! Comparisons are odious! "
"The editor is retarded. The opening is a picture, but the content is all made up. I don't believe it!"
"That Hong Xin must have gone crazy from wanting to become famous. Let me ask, Da Mi mobile phones can definitely take out a billion. Can they? "
"Isn't gambling illegal? I'm going to sue them! Is there a bonus? "
The other news media also hurriedly released the hot topic of current affairs. The words "billion bet" began to flood the screen.
Hongxin Company. Some employees were working. As soon as they opened the browser, a news article popped up. "Live broadcast of Da Mi and Hongxin's billion-dollar bet!"
"What? The one billion bet between our Hongxin and Da Mi? When did this happen? "Hongxin's employees were stunned.
"Isn't the news just making things up now? We need to contact the legal department to sue them! " As soon as the employee finished speaking, the colleague next to him said, "It's not nonsense. It's true. Look, it's on the news!"
When he saw the news and realized that it was true, his face was full of surprise. "Holy sh * t, is General Lu that awesome? A direct bet of one billion! It's too exaggerated! "
His colleague nodded and said, "Yeah, our Hongxin cell phone hasn't even been released yet! Also, it's very risky to bet with Da Mi! "
"The two of you are really young!" The senior employee next to him laughed and said, "In my opinion, this move by General Lu is the one that's beautiful!"
"What do you mean?" The two of them were puzzled.
The senior employee explained, "Do you think that this is a billion-dollar bet, and you'll really lose money if you lose?"
"Are we not going to pay?" The two of them were puzzled.
"Of course not!" The senior employee said, "First of all, this kind of open bet is against the law. So it's not legally binding. It's just a big 'shocking' joke.
"But it's fine. As long as the masses believe it, it's fine. A billion-dollar bet will make them focus on our Hongxin cell phone. It's also free publicity.
"Look at the hot news now. It's all about this! In the next few days, I think it will be the same. How good is this publicity? If we advertise ourselves, we won't get such an effect even if we spend 100 million!
"Besides, General Lu didn't even reveal his looks. When the time comes, even if he loses, no one can blame him. At most, they will mock Hongxin, and it doesn't matter. All big companies will be mocked. "
"So, General Lu's words will save Hongxin at least 100 million RMB of publicity fees. Don't you think it's great?"
"Great!" The two of them said in unison, and at the same time, their faces were full of admiration. "You really deserve to be Boss Lu, you think differently from us!"
"But there are also disadvantages to this." The senior employee paused for a while and continued. "That is, if our Hongxin cell phone market response is not good, we might be criticized by the netizens. When that happens, this project will be difficult to operate. "
Not only them, but Hongxin's top management was also shocked by this news. They had not heard anything about this before, and it's like Lu Zixin's idea.
Liu Tong, Liang Song, and the rest had sent messages to ask about this. Su Zhirong even called Lu Zixin.
"General Lu, this move of yours is a little too big! Aren't you afraid of losing? "Su Zhirong teased.
"Don't worry, I haven't even saved enough for my wife, so how can I lose? When Hongxin officially launches, they will know! "Lu Zixin said confidently.
"Then I'll wait and see."
The billion-dollar bet spread quickly and quickly became a trending topic on Weibo. Because of this, all kinds of public accounts appeared and reposted or commented.
At this moment, Da Mi's press conference was nearing its end, and it was time for the reporters to ask questions.
This time, everyone's focus was no longer on Da Mi's latest features, but on Tian Xiangshan and Hongxin's billion-dollar bet.
Tian Xiangshan did not avoid this. On his phone, his employees had sent him some of the latest news. The billion-dollar bet spread quickly online, and this wave of publicity was very effective. It could be said that Da Mi's press conference received the most attention from netizens in history!
Therefore, he wanted to continue gambling, and the more popular it was, the better!
"Hello, CEO Tian, I'm a reporter from New Wolf Entertainment. May I ask if you have confidence in this billion-dollar bet?"
"Of course! And I'm 100% confident! "Tian Xiangshan said confidently," Our Da Mi will definitely win! Next! "
"Hello, CEO Tian, I'm a reporter from Phoenix Technology. Hongxin's phone hasn't been announced yet, so why are you so sure? "
"This has been the style of our team since we started our business, to do better! When Da Mi 1 was released, our results were very good. I believe that Hongxin's phone is also doing well, but it's still too much to ask for a month's sales to compare to ours in three months! "Tian Xiangshan said politely.
"Hello, CEO Tian, I'm a reporter from Beijing Daily. If you lose, will you really pay out one billion? "
"It's impossible to lose. Next! "
There were also reporters who stopped Zhu An and Tang Gang, who had not left in time, to interview them.
Tang Gang said directly, "Friends from the media, this is Da Mi's press conference, and we are guests, so we can't steal the show. So if you have any questions, you should ask CEO Tian! "
"As for other news, we will reply on Hongxin's official website or official website. Please focus on the 'Red Core' chip and the upcoming Hongxin phone! Thank you! "Before he left, he did not forget to advertise Hongxin's phone.
