Three days later, Xiao Yunhai's trailer finally showed its true colors on all the major video websites around the world.
In just a minute and a half, it attracted the attention of hundreds of millions of people around the world. Everyone wanted to see what was so special about Xiao Yunhai's TV series.
From eight in the morning to twenty-four in the evening, the number of views exceeded 578 million in 16 hours. Almost all the major forums on the Internet were discussing the TV series.
Xiao Yunhai did a lot of shocking things in the trailer. For example, the tattoo on the main character's body that hid the escape route, the various people in the prison, the Vice President's conspiracy, shooting, persecution, traps, and so on. It was very suspenseful, and the pace was bright and the images were clear. It was as exciting as a movie.
It would be fine if they didn't watch the trailer. After watching it, the audience was even more excited.
At the end of the trailer, the main character robbed a bank and was easily arrested by the police. When the police handcuffed him, the main character had a mysterious smile on his face.
The image froze there, and it could be said that it was a complete mess of handsomeness.
"F * ck, I regret it. I shouldn't have watched the trailer of Prison Break. I don't know how to survive the publicity period. "
"I have to say, having a world-class director, no, recognized as the world's best director, make a TV series is really exciting. After watching the trailer, I can feel the tension and excitement of the whole show. The 28th of October is coming soon. "
"Tension and suspense are the feelings that this trailer gives me. I'm looking forward to Prison Break airing on Yunqing TV as soon as possible. "
"Obviously, this movie is very cool. Especially the main character's smile at the end. It really charmed me. Come on, Prison Break, I'll wait for you. "
It wasn't just on the Internet. Yunqing TV broadcast the trailer almost all day long. As long as there was a commercial break, there would be a trailer.
The publicity offline was even more intense. Supermarkets, schools, squares, bookstores, video stores, and other places were all covered with posters of Prison Break.
Five hundred million USD was enough to cover all aspects of the promotion.
In Europe and the United States, Assistant Director Neil had already started to take the main cast of Prison Break to various cities for publicity.
They obviously didn't expect Xiao Yunhai to be so generous as to spend 500 million USD on a comprehensive publicity campaign. They knew that this was a rare opportunity, so they worked very hard.
Just as' Prison Break 'was in full swing, Xiao Yunhai received a piece of shocking news.
"Old Wu, what did you say? David Steer actually sold 45% of the shares of Hua Xia's Stel Video Network, Music Network, and Business Network to someone else. F * ck, is he crazy? "
Hearing the news brought by Wu Yifa, Xiao Yunhai couldn't believe his ears.
They had spent so much to build the three major internet companies, but he had sold 45% of the shares at a super low price of 18 billion USD. This was simply unbelievable to Xiao Yunhai.
However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was very possible.
Since the establishment of Steer's three major internet companies, they had suffered too many restrictions.
Other than the songs of some singers in Europe and the United States, almost none of the music companies in Hua Xia worked with them. Most of them were partners of Jiujiu.
The video network was even worse. Hua Xia's market had always been dominated by the four major video websites. Their position in the netizens' hearts was deeply ingrained. It was undoubtedly difficult for them to abandon these websites and choose Stel Video Network. If it weren't for the support of Hollywood TV series, they might not even be able to continue operating. Even now, the traffic was pitifully small.
The biggest problem was the business network. In Hua Xia's political state, with Xiao Yunhai and Wu Yifa, the two biggest princelings, there was almost no large company that dared to sign a contract with Stel Business Network.
What a joke. They were the top princelings. If they were upset, it wouldn't be difficult to cause problems for their own companies. What was more, Xiao Yunhai was the world's richest man while Wu Yifa had become one of the top 30 tycoons in Hua Xia because of Yun Yi Shopping Network.
The three major websites were dealt a heavy blow in Hua Xia at the same time. David Steer, who had vowed to attack Hua Xia's market, was hurt. At the same time, he understood that if he wanted to expand in Hua Xia, he had to have the support of the government. Otherwise, everything he did would be half the result with twice the effort.
That was why he sold his shares and cooperated with others.
Wu Yifa said, "It's the truth. Old Xiao, let me tell you a piece of bad news. The war between Yun Yi Shopping Network and Stel Business Network has officially begun in Hua Xia. Who are you going to help? "
Wu Yifa asked because Xiao Yunhai owned 25% of Steyr Networks' shares.
Xiao Yunhai retorted, "Nonsense. I own forty-nine percent of Yun Yi Shopping Network's shares and twenty-five percent of Steer Network's shares. Now that David Steer has sold forty-five percent of Steer E-Commerce Network to someone else, I only own thirteen percent of the shares. If you were me, who would you help? Right, what do you mean by officially starting a war? In Hua Xia, does David Steer still have the power to resist? "
Wu Yifa smiled bitterly. "He didn't before, but he does now. Do you know who he's working with? They're all f * cking second-generation officials. And it's not just one of them. It's a group of more than ten people. The leader is the third chief's daughter, Cao Menglan, who's known as the Iron Lady in the capital. She's originally in the clothing, cosmetics, and jewelry business. Who would've thought that she'd get involved with David Steer? She owns 25% of the shares while the remaining 20% is divided among the twelve princelings. Their family background is at least at the ministerial level. In terms of power, they're stronger than both of us. Do you think those businessmen would dare to go against them? I've received more than 20 calls in the past two days, all about this. Hmph, they look like they're complaining but they're secretly happy. How can they not be happy with an additional sales channel? "
Xiao Yunhai had heard of Cao Menglan before.
She was 35 years old this year and did not look too pretty. She had been in the army for three years and developed a resolute personality. Later on, she went into business and made a name for herself in just a few years, establishing the Menglan Group. Now, the company's market value had reached a terrifying 200 billion USD. She could be described as a woman who did not lose out to men.
She was very famous in the circle and was known as the Big Sister of the Capital's princelings. Although she was a woman, her way of doing things was more domineering than men. She was definitely a formidable figure.
Even Wu Yifa had to call her 'Big Sister' when he saw her. No wonder he had a headache.
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Old Wu, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. What's the big headache? To be honest, I really want to meet this Ms. Cao Menglan. "
Wu Yifa said, "You'll have the chance soon. In a few days, Hua Xia's government will gather the top 100 tycoons in Hua Xia for a business conference. You, me, and Cao Menglan will be there. "
Xiao Yunhai asked in surprise, "How come I didn't know about it?"
Wu Yifa snorted and said, "You're busy with movies and TV shows. When did you care about these things? I reckon the invitation will be sent to you by tomorrow at the latest. "
Xiao Yunhai said in distress, "Can I not go? I still have a lot of things to do. "
Wu Yifa laughed and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense in front of me. You're talking about the promotion of Prison Break, aren't you? I don't want to say this, but is it so fun to shoot movies and TV shows? It actually makes you, the richest man in the world, so happy. Let me tell you, the conveners are the government's No. 1 official and your uncle. If you don't go, you'll be spanked. I heard that the ultimate purpose of this meeting is to solicit alms. "
"Solicit alms? What do you mean? "Xiao Yunhai asked in confusion.
Wu Yifa said, "After decades of development, the eastern part of Hua Xia is already very rich. But the western part, where the environment is bad, still has a large number of people living below the poverty line. And the gap is getting bigger and bigger. If this continues, the social conflicts will definitely worsen. Therefore, the government has decided to vigorously develop the western part's economy in the next ten years. This meeting is actually to make us invest. "
Xiao Yunhai thought of the development of the western part in his previous life and couldn't help but be enlightened. "So that's how it is. Okay, I got it. "
After the call with Wu Yifa, Xiao Yunhai frowned.
This David Steyr's sudden change of strategy wasn't a good thing for Xiao Yunhai.
With the help of these officials, Steyr Networks' development in Hua Xia would be smooth sailing. Even if Xiao Yunhai and Wu Yifa worked together, they wouldn't be able to stop it.
Using 45% of the shares to win over more than ten princelings, this deal was definitely profitable for David Steyr.
If Steyr Networks continued to prosper, then Xiao Yunhai's desire to replace David Steyr's position would naturally be even further away.
"Amazing. David Steer's move of trying to kill him was simply too brilliant. Hehe, he's really a big shot in the business circle. He saw through the nature of Hua Xia with one look. There's going to be big trouble in the future. "
Xiao Yunhai rubbed his temples and sighed.
