Pei Qian flipped through the netizens' hot comments, especially the hot comments under Boqun Media's account, 'Encyclopedic Knowledge'.
He realized that many fans who supported Tengda and those who opposed Tengda had already started arguing.
"I'm dying of laughter. Boqun Media was the first to jump out to refute, but Zheng Hao immediately exposed them!"
"Boqun Media has a cooperative relationship with Tengda? In the end, their performance kept declining. This means that Tengda's change in values is not a panacea! The success of Long Yu Corporation and Sun Strike Studios previously was just a coincidence in Tengda's area of expertise. "
"Tengda's behavior reminds me of some big companies: every time they acquire a company, they would always send their own people over to change the company's values! In the end, they changed the company over and over again. I didn't expect Tengda Corporation to have such a thing happen! "
"That's right. It looks like it's easy for people or big companies to become arrogant once they succeed. It's really hard to change human nature!"
"How many of you have read Boqun Media's current and previous manuscripts? There were explosive articles in the past, but what were they writing about?! They were all inciting anxiety, creating hatred, and commenting on the old ways of starting a war. The content was just to ride on the hot topics and ramble on. On the surface, they talked a lot, but in reality, they were empty and tasteless. The articles written now might be less popular, but they are all real! "
"That's right, I also think that the articles written by 'Encyclopedic Knowledge' are much more comfortable now!"
"You guys can be jealous! A self-media company can't even afford to eat, and you guys are still discussing whether their articles are good or not? If you think the articles are good, go forward and reward them. In the past, they could at least eat their fill when they wrote explosive articles to ride on the hot topics. Now that they're writing what you guys like to read, they have to starve nine times in three days! "
"Why don't Tengda Corporation buy Boqun Media directly since we've already cooperated to this extent?"
"Don't, Boqun Media just wants to follow Tengda's lead. How could they lose their own company? Is that appropriate?"
While many netizens were speaking up for Boqun Media and Tengda Corporation, they could not stop more people from mocking them!
Whether the article was well-written or not was very subjective. However, the popularity data and the actual income were real.
Zheng Hao had already listed the changes in Boqun Media's data, and the results were clear at a glance. From a business point of view, after Boqun Media was transformed, its commercial value had indeed plummeted. There was no way to refute that!
Amidst these arguments, Zheng Hao not only withstood the pressure, but he was even showing signs of counterattacking. Pei Qian could not help but feel pleasantly surprised when he saw this.
Regardless of whether Zheng Hao had hired a water army or not, it wasn't easy for him to create such a trend of confrontation on the Internet!
The Anti-Tengda Alliance had been beaten up by Tengda Corporation in the previous public opinion battle even though they had hired fake reviewers. At least they were evenly matched now!
Pei Qian could finally relax a little. He knew that the Anti-Tengda Alliance would eventually lose the battle of public opinion. However, Pei Qian hoped that the Anti-Tengda Alliance would last longer this time. The longer they lasted, the stronger the motivation to fight back after the Anti-Tengda Alliance failed!
Tengda would have a batch of new projects, including the Game Routing Machine, released next month. It would be good for the public opinion battle to last longer and disperse the popularity of the new products.
At that thought, Pei Qian turned his attention to the other departments of the company.
…
At the same time, Xia Jiang had just completed an interview and was seriously organizing the manuscript at her desk.
As a media person in the games industry, she naturally paid attention to the movements of the domestic games industry. She would not let go of any hot topics on the Internet.
The debate between Boqun Media and Zheng Hao over Tengda's model had already become extremely popular in a short period of time. It was difficult for Xia Jiang not to see it!
The public opinion battle between Tengda Corporation and the Anti-Tengda Alliance had already gone through a series of confrontations. At this juncture, the hot topic was already very high. It was not easy for Zheng Hao to suppress Tengda Corporation in public opinion. Naturally, he had to add to this popularity and make it more influential!
Xia Jiang stopped what she was doing and said angrily as she watched the discussions on the internet gradually tilt towards the Anti-Tengda Alliance's side. "How preposterous!"
"The Internet era is really too chaotic. It's very difficult to explain something seriously, but it's too easy to muddy the waters!"
"Tengda Corporation's transformation of Boqun Media was obviously a good thing, but Zheng Hao seized the opportunity to chase after it because of the temporary decline in traffic and performance! The most infuriating thing is that many people actually think it makes sense? "
"Since when did the evaluation of the media become mercenary? Isn't this the media version of laughing at the poor but not at the prostitutes? "
"It's a shame for a self-media company to produce content honestly and end up with poor profits! However, if they use hot topics to intensify conflicts, exaggerate alarmist statements, and stir up war in the comments section to obtain traffic and popularity and earn black-hearted money, it would attract countless people's pursuit! "
"As a media person who pursues truth and fairness, I really can't stand it anymore!"
Xia Jiang felt that as a media person with a conscience, she had to stand up at this time and say something to support Boqun Media!
There were too few companies in the self-media industry that could stick to the bottom line and transmit positive value to society.
Boqun Media was indeed a company that cooperated with Tengda Corporation. Their values were the same!
However, Xia Jiang had the intention to help but did not know where to start.
She was indeed an editor-in-chief of the official platform, but her influence was quite limited. What's more, under such circumstances, it was very likely that she would intensify the conflict and make the situation more chaotic. She might even be of more help than help!
Xia Jiang frowned and fell into deep thought.
At that moment, her cell phone vibrated. She received an internal notification.
"Eh? The special deployment meeting of the network management office has just ended. They're going to carry out a special rectification of the current self-media industry?
"That's great, these self-media should have been rectified a long time ago!"
Xia Jiang immediately searched online and found that some authoritative media outlets had begun to follow up.
"The National Network Management Office has convened a special deployment meeting to comprehensively strengthen the regulation and management of the self-media industry in order to deal with the current chaos of spreading false news, distorting facts, promoting wrong values, malicious marketing, and intensifying conflicts. It has been decided that from June 25th, a three-month 'special rectification campaign to further strengthen the basic management of self-media' will be launched nationwide to promote the healthy and orderly development of the self-media industry. "
Xia Jiang clicked on a few larger portals and self-media operation platforms and soon found that these websites and platforms had also successively posted notices about the rectification of self-media activities.
Obviously, this special deployment meeting had long been prepared. The relevant departments had long noticed the chaos in the process of the self-media's barbaric development and were determined to rectify it!
It was just that the process had taken a long time, and the plan had only been finalized now.
These large portals must have received the news immediately. They had no other choice but to cooperate unconditionally!
The development of the self-media industry had been slow in the past and was in a state of barbaric growth. The relevant departments did not pay enough attention to it. Therefore, in order to gain more popularity, these portals indulged these self-media in every possible way. Whether it was plagiarism, editing, or publishing some sensational articles, these platforms turned a blind eye and enjoyed the popularity and traffic that the self-media brought to them.
However, now that the supervision was launched, these websites did not dare to go against the trend and immediately began to investigate.
After this investigation, the self-media industry was in a terrible state!
Self-media was different from traditional media. The threshold to enter the industry was too low, and there were all kinds of people in the industry. Many self-media people were not in the media industry, so they lacked respect for the industry.
Although there were some reporters in traditional media outlets who went against the conscience and bottom line of a news person for the sake of popularity and published many alarmist reports, they were still in the minority.
However, it was different for self-media. Without restrictions, it would naturally grow wildly.
In order to chase popularity, they would do anything. The more daring they were, the more popular they would be!
All kinds of bottomless and explosive articles were released one after another. Other self-media would naturally study the characteristics of these explosive articles and imitate them. Over time, the entire environment became foul.
As soon as the rectification campaign began, it was wiped out!
Many big self-media accounts with a keen sense of smell had already sent out a survival signal, saying that they would fully cooperate with the rectification campaign and self-examine their own content.
Those small accounts with a keen sense of smell were still committing crimes against the trend, but they were only going crazy at the end. The website would soon block all their accounts and lock them in a small black room for violating the rules.
A storm was about to sweep through!
Xia Jiang could not help but feel a little relieved. It seemed that her worries were unnecessary. The relevant departments launched this special rectification campaign with the momentum of a thunderbolt to crack down on the chaos in the self-media industry. Boqun Media was the first to complete the rectification. Not only could they persist in this industry turmoil, but they could also do better!
It would not be too much to set up a positive example for a company like this, right?
Xia Jiang immediately made a report to her direct superior, reporting the deeds of Boqun Media to them.
Obviously, in the context of cracking down on the chaos in the self-media industry, the deeds of Boqun Media were worth publicizing as a positive case.
If all self-media could learn from Boqun Media, then the entire self-media industry would not become foul and need the relevant departments to personally rectify it.
Xia Jiang was not sure how effective her report would be, but she felt that it was necessary for her to contribute a little to this matter!
