Which company was the richest in the internet industry in 2002?
It might have been hard to say before 2001, but in 2002, the answer was clear.
That was, the company that was in the online gaming industry was the richest.
NetEase, Ninth City, Shengda … and now Huanyu Technologies.
For these gaming companies, it was not a big deal to invite one or two celebrities to endorse their games.
In just a few days, Shengda announced that they would be endorsing Zheng Yijian.
Who was Zheng Yijian?
He was the main character of the Young and Dangerous gang.
Even Chen Xiaochun's wild chicken song was only a supporting role for Zheng Yijian.
Once the news was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of the media.
"Zheng Yijian endorses online games, Brother Shanji is in danger."
"Chen Haodong rises, the king of hot-blooded legend returns."
"Sword light, hot-blooded legend."
This kind of endorsement not only attracted the interest of some internet enthusiasts.
At the same time, this kind of endorsement also attracted the attention of the entire entertainment industry.
After all, Chen Xiaochun's endorsement of an online game could only be considered an exception. Now, Zheng Yijian was also involved.
Moreover, Chen Xiaochun's endorsement of an online game did not lower the popularity of his game. Instead, his popularity skyrocketed. This also changed the attitude of the entertainment industry towards celebrities endorsing online games. Of course, there were still some people in the entertainment industry who felt that celebrities should not endorse online games. However, it was impossible to say that he wasn't tempted by the prospect of real gold and silver.
"It seems that Shengda and Huanyu Technologies are going to face off."
"The Legend of Mir world and hot-blooded legend are very similar. Previously, many people said that the Legend of Mir world copied hot-blooded legend. Now, the Legend of Mir world has set a world record, but hot-blooded legend is still below it. "
"This is awkward. Hot-Blooded legend is copying the Legend of Mir world."
Of course, whether it was hot-blooded legend or the Legend of Mir world, there was no such thing as copying.
Hot-Blooded legend was an agent from Korea.
The Legend of Mir world was developed by Huanyu Technologies after purchasing the copyright of Legend of Mir world.
Logically speaking, the two were not the same.
However, the Legend of Mir world and hot-blooded legend were both legends. Countless players would still compare the two.
Was the Legend of Mir world more fun or hot-blooded legend more fun?
In comparison, games with more players were naturally better.
The Legendary world had used Chen Xiaochun's endorsement to defeat the hot-blooded legend. Now, the hot-blooded legend had regrouped and was ready to face the hot-blooded legend head-on.
Of course, it wasn't just Shengda's hot-blooded legends.
Zhu Jun, the CEO of Miracle Mu, also announced that they had signed a contract with the famous singer Jay Chou.
Chou Jielun will not only shoot the Miracle MU promotional video, but he will also compose a song with the same name.
This news was even more sensational than Zheng Yijian's.
Jay Chou was the most popular singer in the entertainment industry recently. He released his debut album "Jay" in 2000, and then released a new album "Fantasia" in 2001, which established his Chou style of music. Although Jay Chou had only debuted for two years, his popularity was already comparable to that of an A-list celebrity.
He didn't expect Miracle MU to spend so much money to hire Zhou Jielun as their spokesperson.
"Alright, I'm optimistic about a miracle this time."
"I also believe in miracles, because Zhou Jielun himself is a miracle."
"With Zhou Jielun's talent, I believe 'Miracle' will be a hit in China."
Thousands of onlookers focused on Miracle MU. Even before Chou Jielun's endorsement, the number of downloads of Miracle MU's app kept increasing. Zhu Jun's face was glowing these days, but he thought to himself, "I'm still the best for hiring such an awesome star. If I had hired a B-list or B-list celebrity, the effect would probably be the same, but it wouldn't be this good."
However, NetEase didn't stop there.
Ding Lei, who used to be the richest man in China, also spent a lot of money to hire a big shot to endorse his product.
Who was this big shot?
Who was the one who filmed the movie "Journey to the West"?
Zhou Xingchi.
That's right, Ding Lei hired the King of Comedy.
"Ah, Zhou Xingchi, NetEase actually hired Zhou Xingchi."
"Damn, Ding Lei is too awesome."
"He even hired Master Xing. Alright, this is awesome."
Among these spokespersons, all of them were A-list celebrities.
But the most awesome one was undoubtedly Zhou Xingchi.
There was almost no netizen who hadn't watched Zhou Xingchi's movies.
According to NetEase, Zhou Xingchi also liked "Journey to the West" and would be cooperating with "Journey to the West". In the future, "Journey to the West" would release a Joker's Treasure dungeon, and they were looking forward to players trying it out.
When this news came out, it was like a bomb.
Originally, everyone was very familiar with the background of "Journey to the West". Who would have thought that Ding Lei would even hire Master Xing?
Now, "Journey to the West" was really justified.
"Tsk tsk, Legend of Mir 2 is in big trouble."
"Isn't that so? Hiring Chen Xiaochun to endorse has made everyone jealous."
"Now, all the gaming companies are targeting Huanyu Technologies. It's going to be difficult for Huanyu Technologies to maintain their number one position."
Previously, Huanyu Technologies hired Chen Xiaochun. Because it was the first time, everyone felt that it was a novelty.
Now, looking at the celebrities hired by the various gaming companies, it was clear who was better and who was worse.
Although Chen Xiaochun was considered a celebrity, her popularity couldn't compare to the top three.
Many people weren't optimistic about Huanyu Technologies and expressed that the number one position in Legend of Mir 2 would definitely be pulled down.
The ones most likely to take the number one position were Shengda or Ninth City.
Of course, NetEase also had a chance. However, NetEase's previous Journey to the West had a low number of players, and there were rumors that they were going to release "Journey to the West 2". There were too many variables, and no one knew what the future held. Regardless, NetEase hired Zhou Xingchi, and there was no doubt that the number of people online would skyrocket.
However, just as the gaming companies were fighting for the endorsement, Chen Yu had already signed a contract with Zhang Jiahui and Gu Tianle. Because of Chen Xiaochun's introduction, the two parties had a very pleasant conversation. Moreover, the filming of the promotional video didn't take much time. It was all done in three days.
Of course, there was another interesting thing about the filming.
Chen Yu, who was addicted to directing last time, still felt that it wasn't enough. He personally directed the filming of the new promotional video.
"Da Zha, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I'm good, I want to experience the new version of the Legend of Mir 2.
Sigh.
It couldn't be helped. Zhang Jiahui and Gu Tianle's Mandarin wasn't fluent.
They recited the lines several times but still couldn't pronounce them clearly.
However, what Chen Yu wanted was for them to be unclear like this.
Especially Zhang Jiahui's line, I'm good, Chen Yu simply loved this line.

PS: Da Bai is so wronged. The last chapter was clearly a free chapter by mistake. No one spent more money, and Da Bai didn't scam anyone. I feel so wronged … However, whatever the brothers say is right. Da Bai is very happy today. He rushed to ninth place on the new monthly votes list. Da Bai gave it his all and released five chapters today.
