Seeing Hu Xiao's message, Pei Qian fell silent.
What a question that struck directly at his soul …
He had not expected Fei Huang Workspace to come up with such a program.
Previously, Pei Qian had thought that Fei Huang Workspace was going to create a review program similar to Testv. It would focus on reviews with some simple scenes interspersed in between. That would be considered a review plus short videos.
In the end, Pei Qian had guessed wrong!
Fei Huang Workspace had used short videos as the main content while minimizing the content of reviews to the point where people would not be able to tell …
That way, regardless of whether the product in the video was soft or not, the audience would not be disgusted.
Even the fake reviewers' 'I've used it before. It's very useful. I strongly recommend it' had been misunderstood and turned into a joke!
In the future, no matter how Fei Huang Workspace used this program for sponsored partnerships, as long as the quality of the program did not decline and the audience would not be disgusted, they could boldly do sponsored partnerships!
Of course, there was a downside to this.
It was that the range of products that could be sponsored partnerships was much smaller.
For example, the handheld washing machine in the first episode was obviously a very strange product.
If it was a normal cell phone, camera, computer, or other digital product, it would not have any effect on the program.
In other words, A Day in a Great Inventor's Life could only produce such strange products; anything that was slightly normal could not be done!
This restriction made it very difficult for the program to do sponsored partnerships.
However, no matter what, Huang Sibo seemed to have remembered Pei Qian's warning and placed the quality and reputation of the video first …
Pei Qian felt a little dizzy.
Although spending a thousand yuan out of his own pocket was not a huge sum of money, this thousand yuan had a completely opposite effect. This was something that he had not expected …
Not only did the audience not feel disgusted, but they also used it as a joke to increase the popularity of Fei Huang Workspace. In fact, no one even knew that fake reviewers had been behind the program.
They came and left quietly, waved their sleeves … Boss Pei's thousand yuan had disappeared just like that.
Pei Qian looked at Hu Xiao's soul-piercing question and was momentarily speechless.
You're still asking me which side I'm on?
I was the one who wanted to ask you!
Your fake reviewers are useless! Refund!
However, on second thought, I was the one who requested for the fake reviewers to say those words …
Oh, that's all.
…
On the other side, Hu Xiao was starting to feel uneasy as Hardcore Reviews did not reply for a long time.
Previously, he had thought that this "Hardcore Reviews" was simply buying fake reviewers to mess with their competitors.
But from the looks of it, it didn't seem to be the case?
Weren't Fei Huang Workspace and Hardcore Reviews working together too well?
Why didn't "Hardcore Reviews" say that they had hired fake reviewers to slander them? Why did they ask for such a simple sentence?
What's more, why did Fei Huang Workspace release a video not long after Hardcore Reviews bought fake reviewers? Before this, Fei Huang Workspace had not released any videos for more than a month!
The video he posted, coupled with this sentence, just happened to achieve such a perfect publicity effect?
Was all of this a coincidence?
It was not completely impossible, but the possibility was too low!
To achieve so many coincidences at the same time, to accurately stir up the hype, and even create a meme … Hu Xiao would never believe that it was a coincidence.
Then, the biggest possibility was …
All of this was premeditated!
Fei Huang Workspace and this' Hardcore Reviews' knew each other. In fact, they were probably from the same company. They had purposely spent a thousand yuan to hire fake reviewers to hype themselves up!
Now that he thought about it, how long had it been since Fei Huang Workspace had uploaded a video? Their popularity had long died down!
This time, they had only spent a thousand yuan to hire fake reviewers to comment on the new segment. Yet, they had successfully made a meme and even the video popular.
This kind of marketing skill was simply superb!
He then thought about how an unknown account like Hardcore Reviews had managed to garner so much attention just by smashing cell phones …
The more Hu Xiao thought about it, the more he felt that the UP Master behind Hardcore Reviews was definitely not an ordinary person.
Although it seemed unreliable, the final result showed that the UP Master could really become popular!
Was all of this a part of the plan?
The more Hu Xiao thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss.
Then, he looked at the message he had sent.
"Brother, you … whose side are you on?"
This message seemed a little too thoughtless. It sounded like he was accusing Pei Qian of something; it was very rude!
…
Pei Qian had not thought about what to reply.
Although he really wanted to ask the other party for a refund, this did not seem to be a problem with fake reviewers.
Pei Qian pondered for a moment and typed: "This is a misunderstanding. I didn't think that …"
Halfway through typing, Pei Qian realized that Hu Xiao's previous message had been retracted!
Hu Xiao sent another message: "Bro, your marketing skills are really good! I'm impressed. "
Pei Qian, "???"
Pei Qian felt a little dizzy. What had happened?
What was the other party saying?
Pei Qian was just about to reply when a 'ding' popped up. A money transfer notification popped up.
A thousand yuan.
Hu Xiao, "Brother, we're all in the review industry. I won't charge you this time. Take it as making a friend. If you need any help in the future, just let me know. We're brothers, we can talk!"
Pei Qian, "???"
Although he was still confused, Pei Qian felt very happy when he saw that he had regained a thousand yuan.
Alright, this' Shaohu Reviews' was quite an interesting person!
If Pei Qian needed to hire fake reviewers again, he could look for him.
Pei Qian thought for a moment and replied: "It was a pleasure working with you this time. I look forward to working with you next time."
Hu Xiao hurriedly replied: "Alright!"
He could not help but feel lucky that the UP Master of Hardcore Reviews had not said anything or explained anything. He had only said 'it was a pleasure working with you'. This had completely confirmed his suspicions!
All of this was planned by Hardcore Reviews!
That meant that Fei Huang Workspace and Hardcore Reviews had a close relationship. They might even be from the same company.
This was a very important piece of information …
Hu Xiao could not help but start to connect the dots.
After all, the digital review industry was not big. Although their share of the pie was growing, it was not growing as fast as they had imagined.
Every time a stranger entered this small circle, they would have to pay close attention to their identities. What if they were here to steal their jobs?
The good thing was that from the looks of it, neither Fei Huang Workspace nor Hardcore Reviews would be able to steal Shaohu Reviews' jobs. After all, they were walking different paths.
Hu Xiao could not sleep anymore. He had a feeling that this small circle that he had been living comfortably in was about to undergo some unpredictable changes.
…
…
Pei Qian did not know that Hu Xiao was under a lot of pressure. He also did not know that Hu Xiao had made a correct conclusion based on a wrong set of conditions and a series of wrong deductions.
Boss Pei was thinking about other things.
He guessed that it would not be possible to increase the difficulty of Fei Huang Workspace.
According to Fei Huang Workspace's current model, it was almost invulnerable. Of course, this would also increase the difficulty of sponsored partnerships.
Thus, Pei Qian did not care about this for now.
Apart from continuing to update Hardcore Reviews, Pei Qian also had to pay attention to Repent and be Saved.
Repent and be Saved's demo would be released in the next two days. Pei Qian planned to play it first to get a feel for how difficult it was. Then, he would arrange for the weapons that he needed to be included.
From now on, he would have to suffer every day. That was the only way to ensure that when Repent and be Saved was officially released, he would be able to dissuade as many players as possible!
"Ai, it's too hard for me."
Pei Qian could not help but feel sorrowful. Being a boss was really tough!
