Chapter 246: Chapter 121 Co-governance_3
Chen Jie immediately defended himself, "Of course not, you can play however you want, we only have the role to support."
He paused, then continued to skirt around the issue, "But indeed, we have faced some pressure, and we hope you can understand..."
Su Huai grew impatient, "I understand. And then?"
Seeing he could no longer stall, Chen Jie gritted his teeth and came clean, "I mean, could you possibly open a few more accounts and spread out the spending so it’s not so concentrated?"
In just minutes, millions are spent—your strength is unquestionable, but the public opinion is hard to handle...
If the spending is spread out, it won’t be so conspicuous, and we can shift the promotional focus to Yuji’s personal quality, reducing the public gaze on you...
This would also benefit Yuji, don’t you think?"
The truth is, Gou Star spent quite a sum to pull off the Weibo trends and suppress the heat, and now simply cannot afford that kind of expense.
With Su Huai’s daily spending of millions, rapid-fire, the discussion is indeed too intense within a matter of minutes to half an hour.
If not for Gou Star’s parent company having good relationships with the media and a long-standing collaboration with Weibo, it might not even be possible to suppress the trending topics with money.
Su Huai himself hadn’t noticed, but the online discussions about Turbid Dog Number Three were really not few.
Today, for the first time, the daily total broke 5 million, it’s bound to explode on the internet without question. 𝚗𝚘v𝚙𝚞b.𝚌𝚘m
If Gou Star continues to spend money on suppressing the heat, then the discussions will be confined within the live streaming community, among the gamers.
If the money isn’t spent adequately, it’s definitely making it to the social news.
Given Gou Star’s current situation, would making the news be a good thing?
Not only would Chen Jie not be able to hold it, but even the big boss Mr. Wang would be in agony—he’s the real owner of Shuai Gou, not the CEO of Gou Star Interactive Entertainment.
A thought struck Su Huai, realizing that the opportunity has once again landed in his hands.
"You guys are really funny. Forget it, I’ll take Yuji and leave, so you won’t have to worry," he said.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie was dumbstruck.
His head buzzed, his bladder suddenly tightened; he almost wet his pants.
For every Shenhao who walked away, the operation manager would get a scolding—let alone one who left out of annoyance: how many heads do I have to withstand such faults?!
"No, no, no, Gou God, as a friend, please have some understanding for Chen!"
Chen Jie instantly turned his coat, heaping the blame onto the leader’s head.
"I’m also cornered here. Mr. Xie himself didn’t dare to raise it with you, forcing me to ask. This is hard on me!
Actually, it’s easy to resolve. Just manage the borderline issues strictly, and then, leveraging the traffic, increase the proportion of regular revenue, right?
But what I say doesn’t count. I have so little authority; I’m just here to take the lightning for you..."
Rambling on, the theme was just one—
Please Dad, don’t go!
Naturally, Su Huai wouldn’t actually leave now; the annual competition hadn’t even started, and the momentum hadn’t been built up yet. How much money would he get for signing on at this stage?
But that didn’t stop him from sharpening his knives, ready for slaughter. Isn’t everyone a butcher in their own right?
"Old Chen, lay it on the line for me. What did your leaders offer you? If it’s too low, don’t bother bringing it up. Directing how I play on the platform might be a bit laughable..."
Sweating profusely, Chen Jie mentioned the terms, and hey, they were actually quite sincere.
But who is Su Huai?
He could squeeze out urine from a toad if he grasped it; his main tactic being the firmer you are, the harder I’ll press.
After pondering for a moment, when he spoke, he added another 20% to all conditions.
Great, Chen Jie has no authority now, what’s there to talk about? Meeting adjourned!
Su Huai tossed the other party aside and paid no more attention, for he knew clear as day that Gou Star had no choice but to negotiate downwards bit by bit with him.
In the end, it would still be a scenario where they bled heavily.
However, Su Huai’s real intent was not to gain more benefits from the individual account—that’s pocket money.
His blade was hidden behind Xingyu.
I hear your platform makes a good profit with borderline content? How about cutting me in?
The sovereign and the noble clans rule the land together—such is the ancient system.
I like the ancient system.
Therefore, Gou Star should co-govern with Xingyu!
