Chapter 100: A Kidney-Nourishing Soup
Wang Dongnian took his son's phone and discovered that, just as his son had said, he was trending on social media.
And its ranking is not low.
Wang Dongnian swiped through several videos, and almost every three to five of them were about him.
The further he looked down, the uglier his expression became.
I also find it very hard to understand why these people who posted videos to denounce him had already made a fuss before.
Why is it happening again today? And in just one day, where did all this traffic come from? There are tons of people with thousands of likes, and quite a few with hundreds of thousands of likes.
It has also caused a traffic drain; now, as long as you include his company's name, you can easily get traffic.
This has led to more and more people posting about it, and the popularity has been increasing.
Some victims he couldn't even remember started posting videos to defend their rights, and Wang Dongnian broke out in a cold sweat.
I quickly took out my phone to check the company's stock.
Upon seeing this, Wang Dongnian almost fainted on the spot, clutching his forehead.
Sure enough, the company's stock plummeted, dropping more than ten points overnight. It was like being forcibly cut into flesh with a knife.
"Old Jia, I have something to take care of, please excuse me."
It's no longer important to think about why this situation suddenly occurred; what's important is to immediately do public relations.
Having been in the industry for so many years, Wang Dongnian wasn't so quick to lose his judgment when faced with a problem that he immediately began to take action.
Jia Zhong nodded: "This is a very important matter. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need my help."
Thank you.
"Xiangyang, come with me."
His son has studied news and public relations, which is proving useful now.
The father and son quickly left their home, drove to the shop, and from a distance, they could see that the shop had already been surrounded by reporters.
Seeing this, Wang Xiangyang said, "Dad, you can't go directly now."
"Immediately contact a news media outlet, it must be one of our own, and have them come to the scene. Try to get them to ask as many questions as possible that are favorable to us."
"For example, why are things from several years ago suddenly erupting all at once today? Did you offend someone?"
"We're in the sports car business, and most of the people protesting are rich second-generation heirs who buy luxury cars. Is this a genuine protest by a group of wealthy people, or just a publicity stunt to gain attention?"
"Furthermore, in the next few days, we will hire online trolls to post numerous comments expressing sympathy for a group of rich second-generation individuals while earning only 3,000 yuan a month. This will at least alleviate the current one-sided public opinion against us."
Wang Dongnian looked at his son, his eyes filled with both surprise and relief.
"Dad, did I...did I say something wrong?"
Wang Dongnian shook his head: "No problem, it's a very good decision. It accurately grasps human nature and has a good understanding of online trends. Very good."
"Xiangyang, it's a good thing Dad didn't let you fool around with your Jiachao brother, and separated you from your family early on."
Wang Xiangyang exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my god, Dad, this is the first time you've praised me. But let's not tease Jia Chao anymore, it wouldn't be good if Uncle heard us."
"You think I don't know?"
Wang Dongnian stopped arguing with his son and took out his phone to contact all the relationships his son could reach according to his son's plan.
···
After nearly a week of public opinion tug-of-war, Wang Dongnian managed to shift public opinion away from unanimously targeting him.
But his company and his name have consistently been on the trending topics list.
This left Wang Dongnian very troubled and puzzled; why couldn't he suppress the traffic?
"Dad, it's obvious that someone is targeting us behind the scenes, and this person is very powerful. They can spend a lot of money to buy promotional traffic and push trending topics without regard to cost."
"To be honest, I felt like I had everything under control a few days ago, but now I realize that we may only be able to wait for the other side to run out of money, or for the authorities to get involved. There's nothing we can do."
Wang Dongnian frowned.
"With such a large sum of money, it must be at least tens of millions or even hundreds of millions. Who could it be?"
This public opinion storm has caused Wang Dongnian a great deal of damage.
In order to protect his reputation, he had to issue a public apology and compensate all those who sought redress, which brought the stock price back up by a few percentage points.
But we still lost a lot of money.
Once something falls from grace, it only takes one trending topic to go viral, but it's extremely difficult to recover and it can take a very, very long time.
This means that Wang Dongnian's sports car shop business has been operating for nothing for over a decade.
Furthermore, subsequent performance will certainly decline, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it will cause serious damage.
Wang Dongnian thought of Lu Ran, but quickly ruled him out because he didn't think Lu Ran still had the ability.
at the same time.
Chengjiang City Upstream Media Company.
Lu Ran gave a large red envelope to all the participating employees and personally came to the company to distribute it.
Everyone who received the red envelopes was very happy. The boss said that the red envelopes were red envelopes and the bonuses were bonuses, meaning they would have money to go home for the New Year.
"President Lu, although we successfully maintained our position on the trending topics for a few days, the other side has a strong ability to respond, and the public opinion situation is not entirely advantageous. Moreover, we have spent too much money."
"If we continue, we'll probably have to double the funding, and the authorities will intervene soon. Shouldn't we stop?"
After listening to Hu Wen's explanation, Lu Ran nodded.
"Stop immediately, and let him do as he pleases. We've already achieved our goal."
This time, Wang Dongnian's losses were no less than his, which exceeded Lu Ran's initial expectations, and he was very satisfied.
Dominating the online environment in this way is very dangerous, so stopping in time is the only option.
"Yes, Mr. Lu."
At this point, Lu Ran's counterattack came to a temporary end.
Next, he needs to accelerate the development of his power to prepare for a potential counterattack from his opponents.
Lu Ran returned home and checked his remaining cash on his phone.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that while playing the cash flow game was exciting, it was incredibly expensive. He withdrew 100 million from his stocks, and combined with tens of millions in his bank account, this time he had spent most of it.
Moreover, this is only possible because each platform has its own risk control measures for streaming. Without such controls, you might not even get a penny left.
They got too carried away with the fun, but thankfully Lu Ran calmed down and stopped in time.
Running out of money is a minor issue; disrupting the market is very dangerous and can easily backfire.
"Knock knock knock".
Cheng Ning knocked on the door, then carried a bowl of soup into Lu Ran's house and placed it on the computer desk.
After running back and forth between home and the company for several days, things have finally come to an end. Seeing Cheng Ning and the soup on the table, Lu Ran's heart finally found peace.
He picked up the soup and downed it in one gulp, then licked his lips with a lingering sense of satisfaction.
"Hmm? Why does this soup taste a bit strange today?"
"What did you add?"
Cheng Ning clenched her hands, her face flushed, and stammered, "No, it's nothing."
"What do you mean 'nothing'? Well then, tell me! You didn't poison me, did you?"
"How could this be?" Cheng Ning asked anxiously.
"Just some things that nourish the kidneys."
"Cough cough, what did you say?" Lu Ran almost choked on his own saliva.
Seeing that Cheng Ning didn't dare to look at him, he thought for a moment and said, "Who taught you to do this?"
"I remember talking to my mom on the phone last night, and she asked me to give you my phone so you could whisper to each other for a good hour. Did my mom tell you to do that?"
