Chapter 1144: Another Performance Art-Styled Announcent After 28 Months
July 19th, Thursday...
At 8:55 AM, Qiao Liang was jolted awake by his cell phone alarm.
He had two cell phones. One was Otto’s G1 cell phone, and the other was POUIO cell phone.
This ti, the alarm clock on the cell phone was specially set using the POUIO cell phone. The sound of the POUIO cell phone’s alarm clock was like a curse. It was able to cause the heart to stop in a minute as long as soon as it rang.
Thus, the wake-up effect was outstanding.
Every ti he heard this ringtone, Qiao Liang felt like he was a zombie that flipped up from the bed. He could even feel a chill run down his spine.
He originally did not need an alarm clock as a freelancer.
However, the situation this ti was special. There were three words written on the alarm clock: Snatch VR glasses!
Qiao Liang imdiately switched off his alarm when he saw these three words. Then, he quickly opened the purchasing interface of the Doubt VR glasses.
He had already snatched it twice before, but he had not managed to snatch it all.
Qiao Liang might think that his hand speed was already fast enough, but the facts had stood that hand speed was useless if the manufacturer released limited quantities. That was because soone would always be faster than him!
The glasses disappeared in seconds. Qiao Liang was highly suspicious. Could there be 2,000 of them?
That shouldn’t be the case.
He had also t the product manager in charge of developing glasses, Old Song, when he was helping Slow Movent Studio test the ga previously. Given Shenhua Corporation and Tengda Corporation’s financial resources, the VR glasses should be very sufficient this ti. There was no reason for it to be so little.
However, Qiao Liang had no choice but to continue snatching.
He could have spoken to Lin Wan and thought of ways to get one for free, but he did not do that in the end.
That was because he was worried that that would disrupt Boss Pei’s plan.
He knew that Boss Pei was in charge of the publicity plan for the VR glasses this ti.
He also knew that dozens of VR glasses had been sent out this ti to various UP Masters and strears. Many of them were small strears with thousands of fans, but they had not been sent to Qiao Liang.
Has Boss Pei forgotten?
Qiao Liang felt that it was impossible.
Boss Pei probably did not give it to him on purpose for various reasons!
In that case, Qiao Liang took the initiative to look for Lin Wan and tried to get a pair of free VR glasses, it would not match Boss Pei’s thoughts and might disrupt the entire publicity plan.
Thus, Qiao Liang decided to fight for it based on his own ability!
He might not have been able to grab it even though he had tried twice but as the saying went, those with ambition would succeed.
He firmly believed that he would be able to successfully grab it sooner or later with his hand speed!
He silently counted down in his heart. When there was less than a second left, he clicked the button wildly. The paynt interface popped up at the speed of light!
Qiao Liang jumped up from his bed excitedly when he saw that the paynt was successful.
Success!
Qiao Liang had successfully reached the paynt interface the previous two tis. However, he had only failed when he was paying. The goods had been sold out.
This ant that he was only one step away from success at that ti. He might have been just a millisecond away from the last lucky person.
This ti, Qiao Liang’s hand speed exploded at the speed of light. He had finally succeeded!
Qiao Liang was satisfied as he watched the orders and products being completed. Upwind Logistics would probably send the young n ho in a few hours.
He returned to the product details interface, wanting to see the delightful “sold out” button.
That was the psychology of humans. When they did not manage to buy it, they hoped that there would be enough so that they could pick it up. After buying it, they hoped that it would be sold out imdiately so that no one could buy it.
It was like queuing to buy a limited edition item where you managed to buy the last item. When you would feel an inexplicable sense of comfort when you see the long line of people behind you sighing as they leave.
Qiao Liang returned to the information page with this ntality.
However, the gray words ‘sold out’ did not appear. The page still displayed the goods.
That disappointed Qiao Liang.
“Why are there still stocks?”
“Oh, perhaps there are more units for this batch of goods. Or perhaps those who were faster previously had already grabbed it. Therefore those with slower hand speed were grabbing them this ti.”
“No matter what, it will probably be sold out in another dozen seconds.”
Qiao Liang got up, brushed his teeth, and washed his face. He took a piece of bread from the refrigerator. However, when he opened his cell phone again, the page still had available stock.
“This...”
Qiao Liang was speechless.
This was really ssed up!
He would not have set the alarm to wake up so early if he had known that there would be enough stocks for the sale this ti!
“I want to see when it will be sold out!”
Qiao Liang was not convinced and continued staring at his cell phone.
Five minutes later, he was tired of staring at it. He put his cell phone aside and continued playing the ga that he had not completed previously. He would take a look every few minutes.
Available Stock.
Available Stock.
There was still available stock!
He watched as his order status went from ‘out of the warehouse’ to ‘in transit’, and then from ‘in transit’ to ‘out for delivery’. It was almost lunch ti, but the word ‘sold out’ still had yet to appear on the page!
Qiao Liang was completely speechless.
“What a scam!”
“I thought that I’d finally snatched it. In the end, they had so many stocks this ti? Everyone has a share!”
He looked at the fan group and the internet. Indeed, not many people had managed to grab the Doubt VR glasses.
On top of that, many old gars who had previously won expressed that there was an additional promotional page on the front page of Doubt VR glasses. A new ga called “Animal Island” has appeared!
Qiao Liang suddenly understood.
“I understand now!”
“It looks like we’ve entered the final stage of the publicity work!”
Qiao Liang had already suspected it when he heard that Boss Pei was in charge of this unreasonable publicity plan.
Qiao Liang had a rough guess after thinking hard for so many days and combining the previous publicity thod for Ga Designer.
However, this conjecture was not perfect.
Qiao Liang wanted to find a suitable ti to make a video to discuss this matter after he obtained the VR glasses.
However, they did not manage to grab it, so this matter was delayed.
Now, the ti had finally arrived.
Qiao Liang imdiately began preparing the video.
He would write the proposal and record a portion of the content first. He would supplent the remaining content after the VR glasses arrived and try to publish it as soon as possible!
Of course, it would be too late for such a rushed video to introduce the ga ‘Animal Island’ in detail.
Qiao Liang might have tried the ga in advance and knew it very well but it would take a long ti to record the materials and analyze the comntary systematically after all.
Thus, Qiao Liang decided to disassemble it into two videos.
The first short video would talk about Doubt VR itself, the publicity plan used by these glasses, and the true relationship between Slow Movent Studio and Tengda Corporation.
The second video talked about the outstanding VR ga, “Animal Island” in detail.
The truth would definitely be revealed one after the other!
...
In the evening...
ng Chang was still worrying about the last step of the “Pei Family’s publicity thod” in his rented apartnt.
He would probably not be able to sleep in peace if he did not understand this.
ng Chang had a vague feeling that once he completely understood the “Pei Family’s publicity thod”, he would definitely be able to get a lot of commission in the future. What awaited him would be an infinitely bright future!
However, he was stuck at this last step. It was very uncomfortable.
Why did Boss Pei want him to do reverse publicity and teach him personally?
What was Boss Pei trying to achieve?
What benefit would that bring him?
ng Chang could not figure it out no matter what.
He flipped through the latest comnts online.
During the day today, the limit of the Doubt VR glasses had been completely removed. “Animal Island VR” has also been officially released. The evaluation of this pair of glasses was completely warming up.
ng Chang was not very surprised by this.
After all, Boss Pei had promised to keep it for two weeks and get a guaranteed commission.
Now that the guaranteed commission had been obtained, Boss Pei no longer had to stubbornly suppress the sales of the VR glasses. He could sell them freely.
Previously, the evaluation of the VR glasses was not good, mainly because there was too little quantity sold. The people who wanted to buy them had resentnt, so the public opinion was very easy to control.
Now that they were selling it openly and most people who wanted it had gotten the real thing, they naturally realized that the glasses were really good. Their reputation would naturally slowly warm up.
That also ant that he could forget about getting a high commission.
However, ng Chang did not mind because Boss Pei had already fully displayed the “Pei family publicity thod”. ng Chang just had to work hard to extend the ti after learning it.
If he extended it from two weeks to a month, wouldn’t that be a full commission?
Boss Pei had already done his best. ng Chang felt that he had nothing to be greedy for.
His top priority now was to solve the last mystery and make his “Pei Family’s publicity thod” complete.
At that ti, he would be able to get as much commission as he wanted; he would get a few months if he wanted to.
It would be the perfect scenario, right?
ng Chang had a vague feeling when he saw the players’ sporadic comnts, but it was still not clear enough.
After all, the glasses and ‘Animal Island’ had just been released for sale. Most people were still experiencing it. The feedback of the players could not be reflected on the internet so quickly.
At that mont, ng Chang’s eyes suddenly lit up.
Teacher Qiao had a new video!
The title of the video was: Another performance art-style announcent after 28 months!
ng Chang clicked on it imdiately without any hesitation.
It was indeed a video related to the VR glasses!
As an old acquaintance of Tengda Corporation, Teacher Qiao could always make unique interpretations from special angles.
Previously, ng Chang had been keeping a close eye on Teacher Qiao, afraid that he would ruin his plans.
However, his mood was completely different now.
Could Teacher Qiao’s unique perspective be able to inspire him and answer his confusion?
...
“Hey, y’all. I am still your Teacher Qiao.
“This video is not long. I’m sure everyone can guess what I’m going to say after seeing the title.”
“To put it bluntly, the reputation of Doubt VR glasses this ti is not good. However, this is actually the sa publicity thod as Ga Designer more than two years ago, which is performance art-style marketing!”
“Perhaps many people don’t agree. After all, many people have not obtained Doubt VR glasses. Previously, they were affected by public opinion on the internet and felt that this is a product that is playing to the gallery and is passionate about creating hype. In fact, it doesn’t have any real material.”
“Then... allow to remind everyone: Have you noticed the na of this pair of glasses?”
“Doubt, which literally ans doubt, uncertainty, disbelief.”
“Isn’t everyone in this state now?”
ng Chang could not help but be stunned after hearing this opening speech.
Performance art-style marketing?
Obviously, in Teacher Qiao’s eyes, Boss Pei was not doing reverse publicity at all. Instead, he was doing positive publicity.
However, Boss Pei had used a specific thod. Before there was a twist, most people would not understand or accept it. That was why the publicity plan did not look effective.
Now, Teacher Qiao was obviously going to do a bit of digging and explain this specific publicity thod to everyone!
ng Chang’s first reaction was that he felt it was ridiculous.
Impossible, right?
Wasn’t Boss Pei’s main goal to reverse publicity and keep with commission?
What’s more, how could this publicity plan be related to performance art?
ng Chang continued watching with doubts.
