During the regional competitions, some investors were still observing, but after the regional competitions, some companies even formed teams with their veteran employees to prepare for the Feiyang Cup in the second half of the year.
After all, the official Weibo account has already praised the Pingshan County team formed by Fermi. By forming a team and competing, they have gained attention and brought tangible benefits to Majia Village in Pingshan County. There are even sponsors willing to build a wide and flat cement road for Majia Village.
Not only can the village's products be sold, but it also serves as a training base for players who have become professional athletes, offering opportunities for fans to visit and enjoy themselves.
Some fans who lived far away even bought gifts and sent them to Majia Village. Fermi also had the players record videos to express their gratitude, and he updated the players' training routines and the village's scenery, fruits, and vegetables on his social media accounts every day.
Looking at the enthusiastic fans and then at the tender sprouts that had just been planted in the field, Fermi grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth. He was confident that the produce grown in the field would sell well.
Mr. He, the CEO of the He Group, whose competition was held around the same time, was furious.
President He slammed everything off his desk. "What are you all doing! You've spent so much money on advertising and you can't even get a single trending topic! Head of the advertising department, I want to see your resignation letter tomorrow!"
The head of the publicity department felt wronged. The amount of money was more than before, but their game had been dominating the market for so long! Those who were already hooked and liked it were mostly playing it. Those who hadn't joined were either influenced by negative reviews believing their game was ruining teenagers, or they simply didn't like playing competitive games. What could he do? He couldn't just force them to play!
Not to mention that President He actually asked him to resign voluntarily, which made him even more bitter. He had been in the position for many years, from the beginning of President He's game until now. Even if he hadn't made any great contributions, he had still worked hard. He had been in the position for almost fifty years and had avoided countless optimizations. He never expected to be asked to leave.
Other veterans, like those in the propaganda department, felt a pang of anxiety. How could President He be becoming increasingly stubborn and opinionated over something so trivial as to dismiss Lao Zhou?
"President He, this time Old Zhou has already..."
Are you going with Lao Zhou?
Old Wang's heart tightened, and his cloudy eyes, glistening with tears, looked at President He, whom he had followed for so long. He could hardly remember the spirited young man in white who had painted a bright future and the future of the internet for them at the beginning. Hadn't they weathered the storm when funding ran into problems and technology stalled, almost to the point of having to sell their hard work?
They clearly created things that changed the times, and things were clearly going well. The company's monthly revenue was an amount they could never have imagined before. So when did President He stop being the same President He?
Is it about expanding your territory or turning your account into an endless string of numbers?
Old Wang suddenly felt his shoulders drop instantly, as if all his perseverance and strength had suddenly vanished.
He Zhizhang, no, President He, already has no shortage of programmers. No, or rather, President He has long since had no shortage of management and financing right-hand men. Their positions have long been coveted by countless people.
They had initially thought that President He would never part ways with them, but it turned out to be wishful thinking. How could a high-ranking entrepreneur, already admired by everyone, possibly be on the same side as them?
Old Wang suddenly lost sight of the meaning of his work. Thinking about the shares he held, he thought, "Forget it, I'd better make room for him sooner rather than later, lest I end up like Old Zhou, which wouldn't look good."
After losing his temper and calming down, President He realized that he had indeed acted inappropriately. However, he understood that this did not mean he could apologize to his subordinates.
Within the He Group, no, right now, no one can make him apologize.
Meanwhile, Lin Xiaoxiao, who was busy planning the finals, was looking at the proposal submitted by Feiyang Games and was wondering how to make the event even bigger.
After all, using the Lin Group's money to promote their own company and businesses, they don't know if they'll have the chance to do it again. So, they'd better make a big deal out of it.
Some teams were eliminated, while others were still competing. Because of the attention they received, they made money. Some elderly people who were worried about how to buy houses for their children or how their retirement pensions were not enough to cover their medical expenses have now found their problems solved and have even started giving Lin Xiaoxiao gifts.
There were fruits and vegetables, homemade socks, sleeves, cotton-padded jackets with layered soles, flower-shaped steamed buns, and all sorts of other food and clothing. It was simple, but full of heartfelt sentiment.
After reading it, Lin Xiaoxiao was even more determined to squeeze out as much money as possible, adding even more prizes to the finals. Other participating teams also received participation prizes, ensuring that everyone who participated was included!
"Mr. Lin, Charles from NEX Company called, hoping to acquire the overseas distribution rights for the game and competition 'The Secret of Penglai Island'."
"Huh? They want the game's distribution rights?!"
Lin Xiaoxiao really didn't expect that NEX Company was eyeing Feiyang Entertainment's procurement, but as long as the price was negotiable, she naturally agreed.
"They also have another request: they want to participate in the competitions in the second half of the year."
Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned by Secretary Zhao's words. Her competition hadn't even reached the finals yet, and it was already being changed into a global event?!
"Also, Ms. Lin, the person in charge of Liangtian Mobile, would like to invite you to dinner to express her gratitude."
Lin Xiaoxiao resolutely refused. Her feelings were too complicated. Originally, she was going to poach Lin's Group to help Feiyang Entertainment recover its losses, but she didn't expect that the other party would make money instead, which was very infuriating.
Lin Tianxue wasn't angry that she couldn't meet Lin Xiaoxiao; on the contrary, she couldn't hide her joy.
Lin Tianyang frowned, "You were rejected, and you're still happy?!"
Lin Tianxue never expected that Lin Xiaoxiao was actually a dragon about to set sail. It is said that even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake, but this time, Feiyang Entertainment, facing the He Group, which started with games, actually defeated the master with three punches. What local snake? In front of a true dragon, they are all just shameless snakes.
She stopped smiling. "It's normal for Lin Xiaoxiao to be busy, after all, the finals are coming up soon. We, as the heads of Liangtian Mobile, will also be there on the day of the finals, so it's not too late to see each other then."
Lin Tianyang remained silent, but he was also quite shocked. Lin Xiaoxiao had only played a few simple games, yet she had actually managed to overpower the industry leader, the He Group. Holding a competition at the same time, and with elderly participants, she had managed to overtake them all – truly remarkable. It was no wonder Lin Ruizhe had stumbled at her hands.
"Lin Xiaoxiao's method of breaking the deadlock is truly brilliant."
Lin Tianyang didn't want to admit it, and snorted coldly, "It's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse."
Looking at her somewhat reckless brother, Lin Tianxue thought to herself that it was no wonder that Lin Tianyang suffered a great loss at the hands of that woman at the beginning. However, there are also the strengths of a reckless person. Just like that woman never expected that Lin Tianyang would dare to knock the Second Madam down the stairs in front of the old house and even in front of Old Master Lin.
People who act rashly without thinking are often unpredictable and will do whatever they want. For example, that woman tried to frame someone and make Old Master Lin distance himself from Lin Tianyang, but she ended up losing more than she gained and became infertile herself. It was a real case of losing more than she gained.
