Pei Qian closed the website of the Academic Affairs Office in satisfaction and did not mention the results again.
One point might be a historic improvement but it did not make sense to keep showing off. It was better to keep it in mind.
"It looks like you've been revising hard and seriously. How's work?" Pei Qian asked.
Ma Yang patted his chest. "Don't worry, Brother Qian. I've been studying and working without delay!"
"I'm here to report to you today."
"I've been working hard on Weibo to fulfill people's dreams, but there are fewer and fewer dreams worth fulfilling. Many people can't even write a joke well. How can I believe that such people really have dreams? "
"As for those who have already received money, their wishes have been fulfilled, and their jokes have been squeezed dry. One cannot be greedy, so I will no longer fulfill their dreams for such people. "
"I've only sent out a hundred thousand yuan in the past week. Sigh, I can only say that this is an era where dreams are scarce."
"A good dream is more precious than gold. These are my heartfelt words."
Pei Qian listened on in a daze.
What should he say about Old Ma?
Pei Qian actually just wanted him to spend more money on Weibo, but Old Ma was too serious.
He did not give money to those who had already received it, nor did he give money to those who did not write well. In the end, he only sent out a hundred thousand yuan in a week? I'm afraid I can't count on you at this rate.
Pei Qian had already tried to persuade Old Ma to relax the standards and not be so strict. However, Old Ma did not agree no matter what. He even said that dreams were very rare and sacred things that could not be tarnished.
Pei Qian had no choice but to let him be.
"How's the situation with the live-stream? How's the popularity? "Pei Qian asked again.
Ma Yang said, "The popularity has basically stabilized. It's not very popular, but it's not bad either. "
Pei Qian was delighted. It was as he had expected.
To put it bluntly, Ma Yang's reverse live-stream was similar to cracking down on counterfeits. It might be quite popular at the beginning, but it would gradually stabilize and not explode in popularity.
After all, programs like cracking down on counterfeits were not suitable for watching every day. One would get tired of it after watching too much.
The popularity did not continue to soar. Instead, it stabilized. That was good news for Pei Qian.
Ma Yang continued, "I've done more than ten live-streams so far. The goods I've brought ranged from stationery to home appliances, food, digital products, and so on. All of them have produced very good results!"
"Some merchants who don't have any goods immediately took their products off the shelves, closed their online stores, and fled."
"Some big brands have taken their products off the shelves, apologized, and rectified. Consumers who had been defending their rights without success have finally received the compensation they deserve.
"Many brands came to me in private, wanting to spend money to avoid disaster and asking me to stop leading them. Even many brands that have not been exposed have hinted that as long as we don't mention their brands in the following live-streams, everything will be fine. They can even sponsor our show …"
Concerned, Pei Qian asked, "What did you say?"
Ma Yang sniggered. "Of course, I hung up all the private messages they sent me!"
"Brother Qian, I haven't forgotten what you told me. No matter what the reason is, it's impossible to give us money! We didn't intend to do programs for those brands that have not been exposed, but they sent us private messages, which means that they have ulterior motives. All the more reason for us to expose them! "
"I have millions of fans now. Everyone says that I'm a fighter, the spokesperson and vanguard of the Tengda spirit. How can this little bit of money buy me over?"
Ma Yang's long face was filled with pride.
Pei Qian could not help but raise his thumb. "Well done! Old Ma, I've long seen that you're a promising talent. I'm at ease with you! "
Pei Qian had to admit that anyone else might not have been so ruthless in Old Ma's job.
The brands that he exposed in his live-stream were not all third-rate products. Some were more famous manufacturers. This exposure had offended many people.
What was even more extreme was that he had directly hung up all the private messages that the manufacturers had sent him. He did not give the other party any face at all. Ordinary people would not have done such a thing.
Pei Qian was 100% satisfied with Old Ma's work in this matter.
Old Ma's number of fans had been increasing to millions, but there were many bloggers with millions of fans on Weibo. It was completely acceptable for Old Ma to spend so much money to earn a few million fans.
"No one threatened you, right?" Pei Qian asked with concern.
Ma Yang shook his head. "A few third-rate accounts sent me private messages. I directly @ the cyber-police, and they were so scared that they deleted their accounts and ran away. What's more, our country is a society ruled by law. I have bodyguards. What's there to be afraid of?! "
Pei Qian could not help but nod. "Yes, not bad."
If ordinary people did such things, the resistance would definitely not be ordinary. However, Old Ma had Tengda behind him. Many things would be much simpler. Even if someone hated Old Ma to the core, they had to weigh the weight of Tengda behind Ma Yang.
Speaking of Tengda …
Pei Qian asked. "Did the live-stream 'bring goods' to Tengda's products?"
Ma Yang was stunned for a moment and scratched his head. "Oh … no."
Pei Qian was a little unhappy. "Didn't I tell you to pay special attention to Tengda's products?"
Ma Yang scratched the back of his head. "But Brother Qian, Tengda doesn't seem to have any new products …"
Pei Qian said, "Isn't the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine? Do this in the next episode. Show everyone the problems, shortcomings, and disadvantages of this thing in detail in the live-stream! "
Ma Yang hesitated for a moment. "This seems to be a new product, right? There's definitely no problem with the quality of our own products. There might not be much content in this program … "
Pei Qian's expression was serious. "It's precisely because it's our own product that we have to be stricter! We have to treat everyone equally. At the same time, we can also spur Otto Technologies on to improve and improve! "
Of course, it was a lie to say that they would spur Otto Technologies on. It was true that they would reduce the sales of the Bickering Machine and earn less money.
The Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine had been on sale for more than a week. At first, no one cared about it and everything was fine. However, one day, for some reason, the sales of this thing started to skyrocket!
Part of the reason was Qiao Liang's recommendation on Weibo. However, it only added fuel to the fire. Pei Qian had never understood the root cause of its popularity.
Pei Qian did not want to sit still and wait for death to come as he watched the inventory that he had prepared to spend money on was about to turn into a troublesome amount of System Funds.
Thus, he planned to make use of Ma Yang's "live-stream sales" to reduce the sales of the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine.
Come to think of it, the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine had been officially released for more than a week. Everyone's enthusiasm for buying blindly should have subsided.
Since everyone had regained their rationality, it should be best to talk about the problems and shortcomings of the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine now, right?
As for whether there was a problem with this product, there definitely was.
Otto Technologies did not have its own factory. They would definitely design the smart stereo system themselves and find other factories to do it for them. There was no particularly high technical threshold.
In other words, the quality of this thing was not much worse than the echo wall products produced by the original factory. However, the price had been raised because of the addition of the Bickering Machine.
What's more, this price tag of more than two thousand yuan could only be considered a slightly better entry-level product. It was just a sound to hobbyists. It was completely incomparable to the sound quality of those sound systems and echo walls that cost thousands or tens of thousands.
Look, there were a lot of problems as long as one wanted to find faults!
Pei Qian felt that Chen Yufeng and the others, who were in charge of preparing the live-stream content for Ma Yang, were all professional teams. They would definitely be better at finding faults than him.
At that time, he would strip the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine clean. Even if he did not make everyone not buy it, he would at least be able to dissuade some consumers, right?
It would be a good thing as long as a batch of goods could be stored in the warehouse before settlement.
Ma Yang said, "Alright, Brother Qian, I'll tell Chen Yufeng to prepare the content for the next live-stream immediately. We'll make the Fully-Automated Intelligent Bickering Machine!"
Pei Qian nodded. "Alright, let me take a look at the first version of the script. I'll check it for you."
"No problem, Brother Qian. Just wait and see!" Ma Yang left happily.
Pei Qian could not help but feel emotional as he watched Ma Yang leave.
It was such a blessing to be a slacker like Old Ma.
It seemed like he was always so optimistic no matter what happened. He was not like Pei Qian, who was filled with all sorts of troubles every day and racked his brains to lose more money.
How envious.
Pei Qian looked at the date. It was already January 18th. There was less than a week before the Chinese New Year. The company's various work had basically entered the final stage.
It was New Year's Eve on the 22nd. Pei Qian was prepared to take a break after the annual meeting on the 20th.
The annual meeting should have been held earlier, but there were many things to do in the last month. Pei Qian was afraid that the annual meeting would delay settlement and he would lose money. Thus, he delayed it for a few days and held it on the day of the holiday.
That way, it would be quite straightforward to go home on holiday after the annual meeting.
Of course, he had to arrange everything before the holiday.
He might have made a lot of money this cycle, but Pei Qian was still well-prepared. He had spent a huge sum of money on Mission and Choice, and Dream Realization Ventures had also shared a portion. Pei Qian planned to use the remaining money to advertise.
There might be hidden dangers in advertising, but he could not care so much in order to spend as much money as possible. What's more, Pei Qian's advertisements this time were mainly targeted at physical industries, including Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Fish-Catching Take-Out, Deposit Fitness, Sloth Apartments, Upwind Logistics, and so on.
These industries had one thing in common. While most of them were already making stable profits, they would not make much money as long as the shops opened fast enough. It was much safer to advertise these industries than games and cell phones.
During the Chinese New Year, he would be able to spend another huge sum of money by advertising in Jingzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities.
That way, he would be able to create a considerable loss when the system officially settled the accounts after the Chinese New Year.
Pei Qian could then focus all his energy on the next cycle after the settlement was completed.
Pei Qian felt that his plan was perfect and impeccable.
