Chapter 437: Chapter 201 He Threatened Us!_2
When all of this was presented before the fans across the net, the name "Xingyu" began to carry weight.
The top-tier ecosystem must be mutually non-influencing, complementary, and friendly, where Xingyu is not only a platform but also a home.
Over time, a significant portion of their individual traffic would inevitably spill over, aggregate, and form Xingyu’s overall pool.
Then, benefiting every Xingyu internet celebrity.
Beauty fades, and those who are no longer popular step down to manage, with their shares diluted by their successors to a certain degree, then locking in a portion as enough for retirement.
As for the middle and lower tiers within the same track, they are competitors as well as meticulous developers of redundant traffic.
Insiders trained in this system have an easier time rising to the top, stronger bargaining power, and greater future potential, thus naturally protecting the platform and the entire ecosystem.
Intrigue and competition are inevitable, but as long as it’s dealt with promptly, it’s manageable.
When it comes to the traffic distribution from the overall pool, the top-tier partners have absolute control.
If some little rat is kicked out by Su Huai and then plays the victim online, or even spreads rumors that Su Huai sexually harassed her, writing a sob story, just like that unfortunate guy Sun Haoyu, what do you do?
Su Huai would use Xingyu’s official account to publish a clarification statement. If netizens don’t believe it, what about adding Pei Shuyu, Li Ziqi, Dong Yuhui, and a whole bunch of reputable people?
Nobody believes those sex scandal rumors anyway!
This is the influence of public opinion and control of traffic.
As long as the overall division mechanism is adjusted properly, Su Huai isn’t afraid of any problems with company celebrities.
If one retires, a second will quickly emerge in the same track. They might be slightly less prominent, but the solid middle tier is sufficient to cover any gaps.
In the detailed process of traffic distribution, Su Huai has many strategies, but those are commercial secrets, not to be shared with L’Oréal.
In summary, this strategy is definitely advanced, leading the era by more than a decade.
Normally, business theories always lag behind real-world developments.
By the time MCN operation thinking matures in the distant future, the landscape would have long been set, and almost all big internet celebrities would be going solo.
By then, the theory would be useless.
A classic example is Wuyou Media, no matter how hard they try, they can’t build a significant overall pool.
Many top-tier internet celebrities actually have not reached their full potential before getting stuck in endless external troubles, management affairs, and anxiety-fueled infighting.
But now is the best of times; there’s still a chance to fix everything.
In Su Huai’s vision, Xingyu could achieve genuine mutual prosperity.
The guy doesn’t ask for much, just an empire.
Contend with L’Oréal in beauty, brawl with Master Kong in fast food, benchmark against blue-blood fashion brands, and battle with Midea in small appliances.
Then, swimming in cash flow, spending without end, moving on to develop AI industrialization, domestic replacement for mid-range chips, and to leave a legacy—
The Su Clan’s ancestor, named Huai, a patriotic businessman, national hero, held the title of world’s richest person from 2030 to 2130, his public virtue was impeccable albeit slight personal shortcomings, patriarch to eighteen branches, at 98 fathered a son, lived to 132...
Ahem, isn’t that too short a life?
We’ll discuss it later; maybe by then there will be ways to extend life~~~
Anyway, first get the fortune up in the era of traffic. Mr. Gu is always discontented; need to show him some colors.
As Su Huai envisioned out loud, the L’Oréal executives were bewildered by his spiel.
Listening and taking notes, they were more diligent than schoolchildren.
Even though Su Huai only spoke about very superficial matters, keeping the details hidden, it had an even better effect—L’Oréal executives couldn’t wait to know more.
"May I ask, Mr. Su, how do you ensure that such a chemical reaction will definitely occur?"
"Sorry, that’s a trade secret."
"Could you give me a keyword, please? I beg you!"
"Interesting."
"Mr. Su, control of the total pool requires both a system and management coordination, so how do you resolve the extra cost of administratively positioned personnel necessary for this?"
"Add authority to the operations."
"But that way, the quality and standards required of them are much higher. Where do you find so many high-caliber operators? Or do you have a way to train them en masse?"
"Not necessary; bond relationships + performance sharing is sufficient for graduates from ordinary colleges."
"Mr. Su! Can you please talk about your company’s key strategy for making internet celebrities into BAs?"
"Sure, sign cooperation agreements."
"Erm... that’s not within my authority, and you haven’t provided details that would convince me to cast a vote in favor."
"What details do you want?"
"Two points, one, how to take the most critical step; two, how to stabilize the popularity."
Su Huai gave a sidelong glance at the Chinese executive, who seemed likely to be a PR manager, and suddenly flashed a smile.
His ideas might seem like a con at first hearing, but there’s a lot of substance.
With such a massive framework and solid infill, the smart people present can naturally sense the extraordinary. So many questions are not really inquiries but probes.
L’Oréal’s executive team is elite. Even though they are almost swindled by Su Huai, they still can’t hide their outstanding personal qualities.
Many of their questions are very sharp, crucial, and their mentality of wanting to get something for nothing runs throughout their thinking.
In business, who would pay if they could get something for free?
However... you picked the wrong person to mooch from.
Rookies, pride is good, but being proud in front of me is just turning a blind eye.
