Beast Tamer: The evolution path I made up has come true!

After hearing this long string of fancy terms, Manager Zhou translated it for him expressionlessly: "To put it simply, it means we don't need to pay salaries or reimburse dog food for these dogs."

Su Mo nodded approvingly and said, "Manager Zhou, you have grasped the core spirit of our research group."

At this point, Su Mo paused, then added very sincerely, "And honestly, getting something for free is just so great."

Shen Qinghe: "..."

For a moment, she couldn't tell whether Su Mo was seriously conducting scientific research or dragging all the fake wolves on the internet into an unprecedented large-scale prank.

But there's one thing she has to admit, as a data recorder.

From a communication perspective, Su Mo's move was nothing short of a game-changer.

In less than half an hour, the term "emotional anchor," which originally only existed in the laboratory, began to spread like a virus in comment sections, forums, and major short video platforms.

Even many people who originally didn't believe in or even resisted the super-brain route started categorizing their own pseudo-wolves in a half-joking tone just to join in the fun.

My family is purely destructive.

My family member is addicted to slippers.

My child is the type who only gets motivated when praised.

My family only gets happy when our owner lets their guard down.

Every repetition of these jokes, every like, subtly reinforces Su Mo's theory of emotional anchors.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the city.

The atmosphere in the meeting room of the "Colonel Breeding Joint Center" was not so relaxed.

The large screen is playing a video clip of Su Mo.

In the video, Fugui slaps the first test subject with its paw, while the screen is flooded with comments:

[Encourage the Study of Physics!]

The atmosphere in the video was incredibly cheerful, but inside the meeting room, there was complete silence.

The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat had a gloomy face and tapped his fingers on the table.

Several of the latest data reports were laid out in front of him.

The topmost chart shows the changes in market inquiries about the "Greek Wolf Atavism Route" over the past three days.

Since Su Mo's first live stream of "Super Brain Gravity Dog", the number of searches for "pseudo-wolf evolution" across the internet has indeed surged.

Logically, this should have been a good time for the entire pseudo-wolf breeding industry to reap the benefits, but instead, the actual transaction intentions for their ancestral wolf reversion route have declined.

Many customers who were ready to pay and were inquiring about the constant temperature incubation chamber and blood vessel stabilizer suddenly became hesitant.

Many people postponed their subsequent payment and contract signing processes, and some even asked them: "Is the pseudo-wolf spirit route that Tianfu University is promoting real?"

Can the Superbrain Gravity Dog continue to evolve?

"If this low-cost academic route really works, then is it really necessary for us to spend 800,000 yuan to gamble on the probability of the 'Pygmy Wolf's ancestral traits?"

These questions, almost every single one of them, precisely hit the sore spot in the heart of the wolf.

What they're selling is a high-cost, high-barrier-to-entry, and highly scarce route back to basics.

But now, a super brain approach has suddenly emerged that is low-cost, spreads quickly, and is highly topical.

Even if this approach has not been officially verified, it is enough to sway customers.

The middle-aged man stared at the report for a long time, his face growing increasingly grim. He then abruptly turned off the projector and said sternly, "We can't let this topic escalate any further."

The public relations manager next to him immediately understood and pushed a proposal onto the table.

"do not worry."

The public relations manager said, "The public relations department has prepared a series of combined measures overnight, and we can proceed in sequence immediately."

Chapter 36 The Joint Center for the Breeding of Frosty Wolves Makes its Move

Under the direction of the public relations manager, the prepared combination of tactics began to take effect.

The first step is to define the public opinion.

In just one day, dozens of marketing accounts that collaborated with the Cold-Spine Wolf Center simultaneously released clips of Su Mo's live stream.

In the video, the background and context of cognitive development and emotional anchoring were completely cut out.

All that remains are the images of Fugui swatting the first experimental subject away with a single paw, and Fugui staring intently at Zhaocai, causing the other fake wolves to tuck their tails between their legs in fear.

Add a few suggestive headlines, and the flavor changes instantly.

[Is this so-called "fake wolf literacy experiment" actually an attempt to allow high-level pets to bully their own kind?]

Has a research group at Tianfu University overstepped its bounds by forcibly creating a traffic scam and pressuring pets to study?

From persecution based on advanced mathematics to physical repression, the "pseudo-wolf" mentality is turning innocent pets into pathetic livestream props!

When these clips were released, some viewers who watched the entire live stream commented, "[Are you taking things out of context? We watched the whole thing in the live stream; it was clearly an educational interaction, where's the bullying?]"

[Hilarious! That's called maintaining classroom discipline. These marketing accounts are just trying to smear people for the sake of smearing; now they're even smearing dogs?]

[Let's stop here, it's obviously just trying to ride on Su Shen's popularity.]

However, as soon as the viewers in the live stream explained, trolls appeared in the comments section to confuse the public and even reverse the order of events, labeling the viewers in the live stream as trolls.

As the arguments grew, the second step of the Spine Wolf Center followed.

Academic criticism.

Several professors with vested interests in the Center for the Study of the Cold-Spine Wolf jointly published a lengthy article.

[Several professional questions regarding the recent online spread of the "fake wolf mentality" approach]

On the surface, this article appears to be a rational and objective piece of writing, but once you click in, you'll find that every sentence is directed at Su Mo.

The current sample size is severely insufficient; a few outlier cases are absolutely insufficient to support the conclusion of a completely new evolutionary branch.

The experimental variables were completely uncontrollable. The so-called "emotional anchor point" is a purely fabricated term, lacking objective academic definitions and testing standards.

[The live streaming environment presents significant interference factors, and the possibility of human intervention or the pet's natural conditioned reflex cannot be ruled out.]

The so-called "dependency phenotype" of Sample 5 is essentially just the social dependence and fawning of lower-level pets on their owners, and should absolutely not be packaged as academic evidence of psychosocial evolution.

The mutations observed in wealthy individuals cannot be generalized to the entire pseudo-wolf population, nor can they be used to overturn the "hyena reversion route" that has been validated by the market over a long period.

Once this article was published, the paid trolls hired by the Cold-Spine Wolf Center and the confused bystanders began to attack those who supported the pseudo-wolf spirit.

Those viewers who watched the entire live stream and even participated in submitting their assignments immediately raised questions and refuted the claims after reading the article.

Did these professors actually watch the live stream? What you're saying is completely different from what was said in the live stream.

What does it mean to lack objective testing standards? Are the feedback from thousands of unsubstantiated videos across the internet all fake?

[Could the experts please check out the comments section under the "Su Shen" topic before speaking? Stop making assumptions behind closed doors!]

However, as more and more marketing accounts began to cooperate in pushing out clips of bullying that were cut off from the beginning and end, a large number of casual netizens who had not watched the live broadcast and were unaware of the truth were also drawn into the campaign.

As soon as these passersby entered, they saw the scene of Fugui beating a dog and Zhaocai lying on the ground trembling.

In addition, the seemingly rigorous conclusions in the expert's long article debunking the fraud led many people to be swayed almost instantly.

They didn't understand the cause and effect, and their sense of justice got the better of them, so they started to join the bandwagon and angrily criticize Su Mo.

[I knew teaching a dog math cards was outrageous; turns out it's just animal cruelty for attention!]

Experts have already debunked this myth; the so-called "emotional anchor" is just a made-up term, isn't it?

Using pet animals for obedience tests and packaging it as an evolutionary path—isn't Tianfu University going to do anything about this?

[Scammers are leaving the internet! Using fake wolves as a traffic generator, how can you face those hopeful beast tamers?!]

Faced with a barrage of insults, Su Mo's fans and viewers in the live stream initially tried desperately to explain.

Can you guys please watch the full live stream replay first? Is it really meaningful to take things out of context?

[Su Sheng was diligently explaining science throughout, and we submitted the assignment willingly. Why should he insult us?]

[Fugui's action was to stop Number One from biting the screen; it wasn't bullying its own kind for no reason!]

These clarifications were not entirely ineffective, but under the triple impact of online trolls, public sentiment, and lengthy expert articles, their voices were quickly dissipated and eventually sank into the depths of the comment section.

The situation began to transform from an online frenzy of everyone playing with memes into a chaotic public opinion battle where truth and falsehood were indistinguishable.

By the third day after the live stream went viral, the online criticism of Su Mo had intensified.

Netizens' anger was gradually pushed to a breaking point.

Having already laid the groundwork of public smear campaigns and authoritative suppression, the Cold-Spine Wolf Center has finally unleashed its ultimate weapon to close the net.

Industry prices are falling.

Suddenly, the official account of the Joint Center for the Breeding of the Siberian Wolf posted this poster.

The Cold-Spine Wolf Civilian Support Program Officially Launched
