Thursday, June 27th …
Wei Jinghui sat in his office, feeling very confused.
That was because he did not know how Boqun Media would develop in the future.
His plan was originally quite good. It was nothing more than an anti-Tengda Alliance undercover in Tengda Cooperation Department and then withdraw after obtaining sufficient information.
At that time, the anti-Tengda Alliance would give him some financial support and help him expand the company. The entire plan was very perfect!
In the end, the plan could not keep up with the changes.
Old Deng took the initiative to write an article to refute Zheng Hao's views. This was originally outside of the plan, and Wei Jinghui did not intend to agree. However, Zheng Hao felt that it would be more effective this way, so Wei Jinghui could only cooperate.
In the end, the attention did rise under the cooperation of both sides, but it also pushed Boqun Media to the forefront!
Many people now tacitly agreed that Boqun Media was on Tengda Corporation's side!
The problem was, what impression would Wei Jinghui leave on all the employees and netizens if he brought Boqun Media to the anti-Tengda Alliance?
He would either be a cunning spy or a treacherous traitor!
If Old Deng had not published this article, Boqun Media would have left the netizens with a neutral victim image even if Zheng Hao used Boqun Media's data. It would not attract too much attention after that. No matter which side Wei Jinghui turned to, he would not be scolded too badly.
However, Boqun Media was now highly bound to Tengda Corporation, especially since this article was written with overly righteous words. If they really betrayed Tengda and returned to the anti-Tengda Alliance, the consequences might be unimaginable.
Moreover, this pressure did not only come from external public opinion but also from within the company.
Wei Jinghui did not quite believe that Old Deng wrote this article entirely on his own and did not receive Wu Bin's instructions.
Wei Jinghui, who had been holed up in his office, consciously went to the office area to communicate with ordinary employees, wanting to know their true views on this cooperation.
The results surprised Wei Jinghui!
Everyone in the company actually supported Wu Bin's decision, and the mental state of the employees had greatly improved!
Before this, Wei Jinghui had always felt that he was a good boss. Although the company often worked overtime, Wei Jinghui felt that he had paid his employees enough. The employees were also respectful when they saw him.
Therefore, Wei Jinghui had always felt very good about himself. He thought that he was the only one in the company and a well-supported leader!
But there was a saying that people were afraid of comparison.
Wei Jinghui suddenly realized that ever since he started working with Tengda, the employees' attitude towards him had become much friendlier. His orders had also been executed more smoothly. All of this meant that the employees' views of him had changed greatly. They were sincerely supporting his decisions.
From his current state, Wei Jinghui immediately realized that the employees were very polite to him before, but that was just a kind of courtesy to the boss. He didn't know how they were scolding him behind his back.
But now, the atmosphere of the entire company had obviously improved. One could really feel a sense of vitality and vitality!
If they ended their collaboration with Tengda Corporation and returned to how they were before, many employees would probably resign on the spot.
This caused Wei Jinghui to fall into a very conflicted state, unable to advance or retreat.
He should stay in Tengda Corporation, but Boqun Media was supposed to be a spy. Wasn't that completely different from his original intention?
Return to the Anti-Tengda Alliance? He also felt that he had become the biggest traitor in the entire company and would be attacked by the employees!
More importantly, there had been a special campaign on the internet to regulate the media. Many media accounts had been closed down. Obviously, the previous model of using 100,000 + explosive articles to gain popularity was no longer feasible.
Even if Wei Jinghui wanted to return to his previous model, he could no longer do so.
If he really terminated the collaboration with Tengda Corporation and used the resources of the Anti-Tengda Alliance to continue writing his explosive articles, the final result was very likely to be repeatedly warned by the platform. Finally, his account would be deleted and all his efforts would be in vain.
At the end of the day, the situation had changed too quickly. Wei Jinghui did not know what to do now!
Wei Jinghui was in a dilemma when there was a hurried knock on the door.
It was Old Deng who pushed the door open.
Ever since Old Deng posted that article to refute Zheng Hao, Boqun Media had not expressed any views on this incident.
It was not because Old Deng did not want to post, but because Wei Jinghui felt that things had reached this point.
Boqun Media had spies! They were cooperating with Zheng Hao and not really quarreling.
What's more, Zheng Hao had very detailed information to prove that Boqun Media's performance was declining rapidly. This was very difficult to deny. Forcefully defending it could easily cause side effects.
Therefore, from then on, the entire Boqun Media fell into a state of common hatred against a common enemy. Old Deng was the most angry, and Wei Jinghui had not dared to look for him.
He did not expect Old Deng to be in high spirits today with a face full of smiles.
Wei Jinghui was a little surprised. "What's the matter, Old Deng?"
Old Deng handed over his cell phone excitedly. "Boss Wei, look, it's an official commendation!"
Wei Jinghui took the cell phone and found that it was an official notice inviting Boqun Media to participate in Shanghai's quality new media, media accounts, and works awards and live viewing event!
Obviously, this event was also part of the recent crackdown on the media. Naturally, there had to be commendation if there was punishment.
Self-media was a new type of media that had emerged with the rapid development of the Internet era. Although there was a situation of barbaric growth and frequent chaos, it was still a new thing after all. It could not be completely banned. Instead, it should be guided to develop in a healthy and positive direction and become an important supplement to traditional media.
Therefore, while the officials punished some bad accounts, they also praised some outstanding accounts so that the entire self-media industry could learn from and optimize them.
And this time, Boqun Media was impressively included!
According to the content of the notice, a total of 11 outstanding service-type new media accounts, 9 outstanding self-media accounts, and 15 outstanding articles were selected for this conference.
Boqun Media was selected as an outstanding self-media account and two outstanding articles!
These two outstanding articles were released a few days ago. After they were released, the popularity was not good. However, because the content of these two articles was detailed and sufficient, and the value orientation was positive and positive, they were recognized and affirmed by the officials.
Wei Jinghui looked at the notice and then at Old Deng. He almost thought that he had seen wrongly.
This matter was completely out of his expectations.
Self-media could actually receive an award?
Wei Jinghui had never thought of such a thing before.
This award might not have a bonus, but it represented a kind of recognition and affirmation from the officials. To the self-media industry, this thing was much more precious than money.
Seeing that Wei Jinghui was a little confused, Old Deng quickly said, "Boss Wei, hurry up and prepare. This meeting is on Friday morning. There will be an award ceremony and a live broadcast. This is a great opportunity for Boqun Media to show our face. It's also the first time we'll appear in front of the netizens after the reform. You must dress up a little more! "
Wei Jinghui was still very confused. "But I …"
He wanted to say that he was ashamed to receive it. After all, he had never thought of promoting positive energy before! He simply wanted to go undercover in Tengda and get some evidence that was beneficial to the Anti-Tengda Alliance.
In the end, after going undercover, he got an award from Shanghai's outstanding self-media!
However, he swallowed his words halfway.
This matter could not be mentioned. If the others in the company found out that he was actually a spy for the Anti-Tengda Alliance, wouldn't his image as a boss completely collapse?
At that thought, Wei Jinghui reluctantly nodded. "I understand. I'll be on time tomorrow morning."
Old Deng left Wei Jinghui's office happily and began to discuss with the others in the company where to place the certificate and trophy in the company when the boss brought back the certificate and trophy.
Wei Jinghui had mixed feelings as he watched Old Deng leave. For a moment, his emotions were a little complicated.

June 28th, Friday …
Zheng Hao switched on his cell phone and scrolled through Weibo, wanting to see the latest developments in the battle of public opinion.
His entrepreneur class had been uploaded to a video website, and it was very popular.
Even though a few days had passed and there was a lot of criticism below the video, there were still many people who supported him.
On Weibo, Zheng Hao released Boqun Media's data and fought a beautiful turnaround! The article that Boqun Media refuted was quickly drowned out by the popularity. From all aspects, Zheng Hao had the upper hand.
In particular, it shook the superstition that many companies had towards Tengda Cooperation Department.
The successful cooperation between Sun Strike Studios and Long Yu Corporation with Tengda made many companies have a blind trust in Tengda. On the other hand, the ironclad facts and cases of Boqun Media made these companies realize that cooperating with Tengda would not necessarily succeed. It still depended on which field it was in.
Indeed, many companies and even ordinary people agreed with Zheng Hao's words. They thought that Tengda's model of not working overtime might not be suitable for all companies.
In addition, many companies that signed up for Tengda Cooperation Department but did not get selected were feeling sour grapes. Companies that had a feud with Tengda were also adding fuel to the fire. The entire public opinion field was in a good position.
People always liked to check on the battle situation frequently when the wind was favorable. They would only play dead when the wind was against them. Zheng Hao had nothing to do. He wanted to find the next target on Weibo to criticize and continue expanding his advantage.
He did not expect to find many people @ him as soon as he went online.
Zheng Hao was a little strange. Could something have happened?
He quickly searched and saw a photo of the press release.
It looked like a very official occasion. There was a red banner hanging above the conference room. On it was written 'Shanghai's Quality New Media, WeChat Accounts, and Works Award Ceremony and Live Viewing Conference'.
There was a large group photo below the banner. The outstanding WeChat representatives were holding trophies and certificates in their hands, standing upright and neatly.
Wei Jinghui from Boqun Media was among them. He was quite eye-catching!
The others either had serious expressions or beaming with joy. Only Wei Jinghui looked worried about the country and the people when he was presenting the award. No one knew what he was thinking.
Zheng Hao was stunned!
At that moment, his expression was the same as Wei Jinghui's in the group photo.
Obviously, neither of them was mentally prepared to face the current situation.
