The world is in trouble

Chapter 142: It's a big hit! Commendation (asking for monthly tickets)
On the first day, the number of registered users increased by 8,000.

Lin Xiao already felt very proud of this result.

Because this effect has been achieved simply by promoting it on the BBSs of various universities.

It may seem not as good as Yangwang, but the two are completely different.

The content on Yang.com is inherently attractive, and it spends tens of thousands of dollars a day on advertising.

Facebook's current promotion relies entirely on the game "Plants vs. Zombies".

Next, let’s look at the charm of this game.

If it really is like what happened in the previous life, it will snowball and automatically spread like a virus with countless tap water.

In the previous life, the publisher of this game did not actually do much promotion in China, but as a result, there are actually 40 million players in the country.

Liao Feng, on the other hand, was also keeping an eye on Facebook.

Although he cannot accurately see the background data, he can roughly infer the data with the help of third-party tools or the users displayed on Facebook.

"Boss, you're not as strong as us. You're far worse than us."

"According to rough estimates, Facebook's first-day registered users should not exceed 10,000, but we had 40,000 to 50,000 registered users on the first day."

"And this website is too simple. What the hell is it? There's nothing on it."

"Nowhere is it as rich as our Lingxi Island."

Liao Feng relaxed a little, in fact he also felt strange.

Yang.com is so colorful and beautiful, why is it that Facebook's website has become simpler?
Even the content of this website is very weak and too monotonous.

However, because this game is so fun, Liao Feng still remains vigilant.

Moreover, Liao Feng now has a deep understanding of Lin Xiao's methods and dares not underestimate him at all.

“We will continue to intensify publicity and promotion efforts.”

"We must clearly understand that Lin Xiao's Facebook is a social networking site, and our Lingxi Island Master function is also a social networking site. The two are in conflict."

“And our goal is to be in the university, so in the end only one of the two can exist.”

"We must nip them in the bud."

………………

In the evening, Lian Yi couldn't wait to call.

“How many users signed up on the first day?”

Lin Xiao: “Eight thousand.”

Lian Yi said: "It's less than I thought. How come it's only 8,000 for such a good game?"

Lin Xiao: "You'll know how good it is only after you've played it. There are still many things you haven't played yet."

According to the development trend of this kind of popular game, its growth is exponential.

Lian Yi said: "Bad boy, I will give you a surprise tomorrow."

Lin Xiao was stunned. Secretary Lian, what are you going to do again?

The next evening!
Lin Xiao knew what the surprise was.

A group of strange people poured out from all directions of Aurora University.

They are wearing strange clothes, some are pea shooters, some are sunflowers, and some are zombies.

This kind of strange costume is the most attractive.

And this group of people rushed towards one direction, which was the playground.

What college students like most is the excitement, and many people can't help but follow behind to see what they are going to perform.

Moreover, many people were holding a loudspeaker.

There's weird music playing inside, it's so brainwashing.

This is, of course, the music of Plants vs. Zombies.

Finally, more than a hundred people gathered on the university playground and began to perform a strange dance.

No, not dancing.

They are imitating the first level of Plants vs. Zombies.

More and more people gathered around to watch the fun, and people from far away also stopped to watch.

"Shit, what is this?"

"Plants vs. Zombies, a startup started by freshmen from Aurora University."

"Awesome, they actually use this method to promote it."

Secretary Xiao Lian, this academic genius, has a very useful brain.

After completing the first level of imitation.

These more than one hundred people began to dance, a particularly joyful dance.

Just half a minute later!

The group began to disperse.

Disappear into the crowd.

This is a flash mob event.

Lin Xiao was among the crowd, and when he saw the group of sunflowers, the Pea Shooters scattered.

No wonder Xia Xi was so mysterious today. It seemed that Secretary Xiao Lian wanted her to keep it a secret and applied for more than a hundred sets of props for service at once.

Lin Xiao was sharp-eyed and quickly grabbed the leading little sunflower and hugged it.

Secretary Xiao Lian, you still want to run away?

"You hugged the wrong person, you scumbag..." Xiao Lin's faint voice came from inside the sunflower.

Shit, this is embarrassing.

Xiao Lin, are you sick? Why are you using the same perfume as Lian Yi?
But Lin Xiao didn't show any abnormality. After letting go of Xiao Lin, he hugged each person one by one.

There are sunflowers, there are zombies, and there are pea shooters.

"Thank you for your hard work."

"Thank you, you're awesome."

“You’re so cool.”

Then, she smelled the familiar scent again.

Only this time it's zombies.

"Ah, this zombie is so ugly, I'd better not hug it."

Lian Yi snorted: "You are awesome, I almost got angry just now."

She wants something special.

Don’t hug anyone else, just hug her.

It’s okay if she is the only one hugged by everyone else.

"Secretary Lian, do you still remember that you were going to participate in the piano competition finals?" Lin Xiao said, "Your mother called me and said that you didn't answer the phone."

Lian Yi said: "I was so busy organizing this thing today that I forgot to bring my phone."

"You don't know, even though it's only three minutes, it's a bit tiring to organize."

"You haven't had time to accompany me recently. As a punishment, you will have to accompany me for an hour tonight."

"Don't refuse. I'm going to change my clothes."

………………

When she appeared in front of Lin Xiao again, Lian Yi had changed her clothes. She was wearing a pink top, slightly tight jeans, and furry boots.

The girl has really grown up and her curves have become more graceful.

"What are you looking at? Don't look." Lian Yi said fiercely, then covered her butt with both hands.

"You are not allowed to walk behind me, rascal."

Lin Xiao said: "Come on, you were the one hanging on me that day, your pants were not pulled up, and it was not me who wanted to see it."

"That's right..." Lian Yi said, "But why did you sigh with regret when I pulled up my pants?"

Are you so detailed?
I forgot all.

Lian Yi held Lin Xiao's arm and said in a tender voice, "I remember all the bad things you did and all the bad looks you gave me."

Lin Xiao asked: "Is it hard today?"

"It's not hard, I'm so happy." Lian Yi said: "I'm so happy to be able to help you."

Lin Xiao rubbed her head: "Thank you, Secretary Xiao Lian."

"You're welcome, Lin Shuaishuai." Lian Yi said with big eyes, "Just stop bullying me in the future."

"Oh no, you can bully me, and you can be mean."

"But don't make me cry."

When we passed by a bar, there were already quite a few people sitting inside and a singer was singing.

Lian Yi could hardly walk anymore.

And her big eyes were fixed on the singer's position.

Just when Lin Xiao thought that she wanted him to sing a song for her, Lian Yi suddenly said, "Lin Shuai Shuai, I want to sing a song for you."

"Do you want to listen?"

"Just say you want it!"

Secretary Xiao Lian, you know how to use force.

Then she walked directly to the small stage and said a few words to the singer.

The singer looked at Lin Xiao with jealous eyes.

All the guests' eyes were on Lian Yi, the elf-like girl.

"This next song, I dedicate to the worst person."

"When love is near."

Next, Lian Yi sang while playing the electronic piano.

Her voice is much clearer and more youthful than Rene Liu's.

The guests in the bar stared at Lian Yi, and occasionally glanced at Lin Xiao with eyes full of sharp intent.

Damn, this boy deserves to die!
...............................

Next, Lian Yi went to various universities in Shanghai to organize various flash mob activities.

Of course, these activities would be funded by the company's activity funds, and her small wallet certainly could not afford it.

She also organized these flash mob events with Lin Yao and Bai Xiaoping.

Bai Xiaoping is a person with a slightly open and flirtatious personality, and is full of curiosity about the world, so she is very suitable for organizing such activities and can be cultivated.

As for Lin Yao being more introverted, he should just exercise.

The flash mob events in these schools are bigger than each other.

The organization is getting better and better each time and has become famous throughout the university circles in Shanghai.

Plants vs. Zombies is fun and widely spread.

The flash mob organized by Lian Yi was more like a catalyst.

In the next few days, "Plants vs. Zombies" took a terrifying and steep upward curve, almost a straight line.

You can tell from the BBS of each school without looking at any other place.

More and more people are discussing this.

It's no longer just like the water army, who just post a message like, this game is super fun, go play it quickly, etc.

Let's discuss the specific content.

"Shit, how do I get through level nine?"

"Which is better, the ice pea or the fire pea?"

"What is the most powerful boss?"

"That large wave of zombies looks weird. They are different from the other zombies."

"Does she look familiar? Does she look like the school beauty who will never be a school beauty, Jiang Li'er?"

"Nonsense, how are they similar?"

"A wealthy family."

Almost every university's BBS is flooded with discussions and strategy posts about "Plants vs. Zombies".

If someone who doesn’t know the game opens it and sees it, they might think it’s a special discussion section for this game.

...........................

This game is becoming more and more popular.

What is reflected is the number of registrations and the number of visits to Facebook.

After that, the price kept rising every day.

Skyrocketing.

The price skyrocketed. It made me feel numb.

On Liao Feng's side, he started a crazy promotion campaign.

They started spending money again to promote the campaign in all universities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai.

And it was a big deal.

Register for a chance to win a mobile phone or a laptop.

The most common reward is to give away mobile phone recharge cards.

It not only taps into users from universities in Shanghai, but also begins to expand into surrounding university markets.

Finally, the number of users of Lingxi Island began to skyrocket.

The number of registered users increased to around 28 in one go.

Still far ahead.

Liao Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But he still didn't dare to take it lightly. Although there was no accurate data, Lin Xiao's Facebook was expanding too fast.

Lingxi Island currently has two core generals.

One is Liu Weiguang from Tsinghua University, and the other is Judy from Hong Kong, who graduated from Massachusetts.

Of course, there are also Liao Feng’s several subordinates in the Student Union.

Several people are having another meeting regarding Facebook.

“I think we should use three methods to deal with Facebook.”

"The first move is to completely ban it at Aurora University. Its main propaganda channel right now is the school's BBS. We have several moderators of this BBS in our hands. Although we cannot directly delete the banned posts, we can use a large number of online trolls to cover up any posts about Plants vs. Zombies. We will immediately cover them up."

"The second move is to not allow any content related to Plants vs. Zombies or Facebook to appear on the school TV station. Youpin TV is our stronghold."

"The third move is to practice with the student unions of other universities in Shanghai and refuse all requests from student unions to help promote Facebook. Once you borrow orders from Facebook, you can't take orders from Lingxi Island. We have more promotion tasks for Lingxi Island, more orders, and more money."

From beginning to end, it was several student union cadres who spoke. Liu Weiguang and Judy just looked at each other occasionally without saying anything.

………………

Normally, the school TV station is managed by senior Ling Zhuo, who thinks the "Plants vs. Zombies" flash mob event is particularly interesting and meaningful.

So I specially brought people to shoot "Plants vs. Zombies" flash mobs in three universities, and planned to broadcast them on the school's YouTube TV station after editing.

result……

"Press it down and don't let go." Liao Feng said in a gentle tone.

"Sister Ling Zhuo, do you want to work in the media industry after graduation, or continue your studies? If you need my help, just let me know."

Ling Zhuo smiled unnaturally, then said, "Thank you, Mr. Liao."

Then, this filmed material was directly compressed.

I can't control other places, but the school TV station is my territory, you can't go there.

but……

Unexpectedly, that night, Dragon TV's evening news.

There was a flash mob of Plants vs. Zombies.

Liao Feng's expression suddenly turned ugly.

We just banned Plants vs. Zombies from being broadcast on the school’s YouTube channel, but now it’s being broadcast directly on Dragon TV.

This is Dragon TV, one of the most famous TV stations in the country.

It was like a silent slap on his face.

how?

Is there anyone else named Lin Xiao on Dragon TV?

And this news was nothing, it was the news for the next day at noon.

This news is very interesting.

"An employee of a company secretly played games on his computer during work hours. His boss fired him and the employee angrily reported him to the Labor Bureau."

At the end of this news segment, the host Li Shuang said helplessly: Is this "Plants vs. Zombies" so fun?
And the spread of this news is even greater.

This game had already begun to spread from person to person, and this news seemed to be a catalyst.

This made the game, which was already popular, even more popular.

Moreover, it seems like it's about to break out of the circle.

After the broadcast, Li Shuang sent a text message to Lin Xiao: Little thing, you’re welcome!
This big-butt goddess doesn’t even say hello in advance when doing good things.

………………

Dean Zhang Tianlin of Aurora University returns home in the evening.

The wife had already prepared dinner and asked her daughter to come out and eat.

"time to eat……"

"time to eat……"

I called her several times, and the daughter in the study answered every time, but she just didn't come out.

Dean Zhang Tianlin couldn't help but enter the study and said, "Lulu, your mother is calling you to eat, are you playing games?"

Zhang Luchen: "Yes, it was made by students from your school, Plants vs. Zombies."

At Zhang Tianlin's age, he almost never plays games and has no interest in them.

"Is it fun?"

Zhang Luchen said: "It's very interesting and novel."

After dinner, Dean Zhang Tianlin went to the study and turned on the computer. His daughter was at the fifteenth level and was too lazy to start from the beginning, so she just clicked on the game and started playing.

then……

He was addicted to it, too.

This game is actually like this.

It's so easy, you can get in easily, but you can't pull it out.

This leader Ergou is truly a genius.

After playing for several hours, the dean actually finished the game. It seems that IQ still determines many things.

Then, he made a call to Lin Xiao’s counselor Zhang Zhiliang.

"Have you reported all the honors for this year?"

"It's time to start reporting."

Zhang Tianlin asked: "Is Lin Xiao here?"

Zhang Zhiliang said: "For now, not yet."

Zhang Tianlin said: "Top Ten Stars, Honorary Student, report these two honors to him."

Zhang Zhiliang's mouth was full of bitterness. He...how many times has he skipped classes?
He also planned to report this matter to the department and ask them to issue warnings and impose penalties.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, you are about to become an honor student or one of the top ten stars?
Can someone who often skips classes like this be called an honor student?

………………

Gao Changhe and a few others rushed back to the company exhausted.

He found all the singers that Lin Xiao asked him to find.

But no matter how you look at her, you can't see any star quality at all.

They are as grassroots as can be.

Can an album really be sold if it is released for these people?
Is it really possible to make the huge amount of money that Lin Xiao mentioned?
Gao Changhe expressed strong doubts in his heart.

The girl from the Cool Fire group is a chatterbox and very funny.

I didn't hear a word of it during the whole journey.

But these people are currently struggling to survive, none of them has made it big, and most of them are singing in various bars.

I heard that a company wanted to sign them and produce a record for them.

My first reaction was, it’s a liar, definitely a liar.

Later I asked around, it was Gao Changhe?

After turning a few corners, I found out.

He did run a Changhe Film and Television company and lost tens of millions.

Lightning Entertainment?

What is Gui? I have never heard of it.

"Yanwang? Leader Ergou." Zeng Yi from Cool Fire Group immediately became excited.

"I've heard of it, I've heard of it. The leader of Ergou is really amazing, he knows everything about astronomy and geography. That Yang.com is awesome, the three major photo albums, and the eight major photo albums that followed, they make my blood boil..."

Shit, I didn’t realize you were also a member of the LSP religion.

These people came to the company to sign the contract willingly and with anticipation and admiration.

But there is one exception, Rowling.

Although he is not very famous yet, he has released albums, but they all failed.

But he has collaborated with Wedron and is also Wedron's music director.

Moreover, "Desert Love Song" and "Soul of the Silk Road" have already achieved some success.

At this time, Luo Lin appeared in front of Lin Xiao.

Sure enough, he looks exactly like the Daolang in my memory, a face full of stories.

"Boss Lin, Manager Gao Changhe kept asking me to do something, so I came to take a look. He didn't agree to sign the contract."

Lin Xiao took out a record and put it into the player.

"I've heard your songs, and I really like them, so I asked Gao Changhe to go find you from afar."

"Does Qu Feifei know?"

Luo Lin said: "I know. Both "Bubble" and "A Diao" are very nice to listen to. They are first-rate works."

He himself is a genius in songwriting and has very high vision. To be praised by him, it shows that his level is indeed very high.

Lin Xiao said: "I know you are a genius at writing songs. I have prepared a few songs for you. Please listen to them."

Then he pressed play.

A deep male voice sounded.

Of course it’s not the song “The First Snow of 2002”. Although Daolang has not released it yet, he has already written it.

They are "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" and "Poplars of Kashgar".

Soon, songs with a special flavor resounded throughout the office.

Suddenly, Luo Lin shuddered after hearing this.

Not because of anything else...

It felt like these melodies were lingering in his mind and wandering in his soul.

But it has not yet condensed into a body.

And now, it appeared in its entirety.

Write what you think.

This is very scary.

All the way, he kept listening to Zeng Yi chattering.

Talk about how awesome this leader Ergou is.

He is a top genius who understands human nature, knows astronomy and geography, and also wrote a book that won a top international award.

Rowling felt that the word was exaggerated.

And now, he... was really a little shocked.

He wrote "Bubble" and "A Diao", which are already amazing.

The key is that he actually wrote the melody in his heart.

Have you written down what your soul desires to sing?
Is it possible that there really is some kind of spiritual resonance and compatibility between him and me?

My soulmate?
Lin Xiao asked: "How many copies of your last album did you sell?"

Luo Lin: "There are probably tens of thousands of them."

Lin Xiao said: "I will try to help you sell one million copies of your next album."

As soon as these words came out, Rowling's eyes widened.

One million?
How can this be?

I said that the sales of my last album were in the tens of thousands, but that’s still a little bit exaggerated.

One million, what does that mean?

Lin Xiao: "Whether to stay or leave, we will decide after our opening reception."

........................

Note: The first update is here. The last day for double monthly tickets. Can you give it to me? I bow to you.
