Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Wei Jinghui sat in his office, feeling very confused.

That was because he did not know how the media would develop in the future.

His plan was originally quite good. It was nothing more than an anti-Tengda alliance coming to Tengda’s cooperation department to spy. He could withdraw after obtaining sufficient information.

Then, the anti-Tengda Alliance would give him some financial support and help him expand the company. The entire plan would be perfect!

However, plans could not keep up with changes.

Old Deng took the initiative to write an article to criticize Zheng Hao’s point of view. This was something beyond the plan, and Wei Jinghui did not intend to agree. However, Zheng Hao felt that it would be more effective to do this, and Wei Jinghui could only cooperate.

In the end, with the cooperation of both sides, the attention did increase, but it also pushed Boqun Media to the front of the storm!

Now, many people were assuming that Boqun Media was on Tengda Corporation’s side!

The problem was, what impression would Wei Jinghui leave on all his employees and netizens if he were to bring Boqun Media and vote for Tengda?

They were either crafty spies or rebels!

If Old Deng had not posted this article, even if Zheng Hao had used the data of Boqun Media, Boqun Media would have left a neutral victim image for netizens. It would not have attracted much attention in the future. No matter which side Wei Jinghui transferred to, he should not have been scolded too badly.

However, now, Boqun Media was highly tied to Tengda Corporation, especially since the article was written too righteously. If they really betrayed Tengda and returned to the anti-Tengda Alliance, the consequences would be unimaginable.

What’s more, this pressure did not only come from external public opinion, but from within the company.

Old Deng said that he had written this article out of inspiration and had not been instructed by Wu Bin. Wei Jinghui did not believe him.

Wei Jinghui, who had been holed up in his office, began to consciously communicate with ordinary employees in the office, wanting to know their true views on this cooperation.

The results made Wei Jinghui’s jaw drop!

Everyone in the company supported Wu Bin’s decision. The mental state of the employees had been greatly changed!

Before this, Wei Jinghui had always felt that he was a good boss. Even though the company often worked overtime, Wei Jinghui felt that he had already paid his employees enough. The employees were very respectful to him.

Thus, Wei Jinghui had always felt good about himself. He thought that he held absolute power in the company and was a popular leader!

However, there was a saying that one would be afraid of comparison if one were to put it well.

Wei Jinghui suddenly realized that ever since he started working with Tengda, the employees’ attitude towards him had obviously become more intimate. His orders had also been carried out more smoothly. This meant that the employees’ views of him had changed greatly. They were sincerely supporting his decision.

From his current state, Wei Jinghui immediately realized that the employees had been very polite to him previously. That was just a courtesy to the boss. He did not know how to scold him in secret.

However, the atmosphere in the entire company had obviously improved. He could really feel a sense of vitality!

If they ended their cooperation with Tengda Corporation and returned to their original state, many employees would probably not be able to take it and resign on the spot.

That made Wei Jinghui fall into a very conflicted state. He was in a dilemma.

He would stay in Tengda Corporation. However, Boqun Media was supposed to be a spy. Wouldn’t that be completely different from his original intention?

Return to the anti-Tengda Alliance? He felt that he had become the biggest traitor in the entire company and would be attacked by his employees!

More importantly, there had been a special promotional event on the internet recently. Many media accounts had been blocked. Obviously, the previous model of using 100,000 + explosive articles to gain popularity would not work anymore.

It was impossible for Wei Jinghui to go back to the previous model even if he wanted to.

If he really terminated his cooperation with Tengda Corporation and returned to use the resources of the anti-Tengda Alliance to continue writing his explosive article, the final outcome might be that he would be repeatedly warned by the platform and end up deleting his account.

At the end of the day, the situation had changed too quickly. Wei Jinghui did not know what to do now!

Wei Jinghui was still struggling when he heard an urgent knock on the door.

It was Old Deng.

Ever since Old Deng sent that article to refute Zheng Hao, Boqun Media had not expressed any views on this matter.

It was not because Old Deng did not want to publish it, but because Wei Jinghui felt that everything was more or less done.

Our Boqun Media is a spy! We are cooperating with Zheng Hao, not to argue.

What’s more, Zheng Hao had very detailed information that proved that Boqun Media’s performance was plummeting. It was very difficult to deny that. It would be easy to have side effects if he tried to explain forcefully.

Thus, from then on, the entire Boqun Media fell into a state of unity against a common enemy. Old Deng was the most angry. Wei Jinghui had not dared to look for him.

He did not expect Old Deng to be high-spirited and full of smiles today.

Wei Jinghui was a little surprised. “What’s the matter, Old Deng?”

Old Deng handed his cell phone over excitedly. “Boss Wei, look, the official commendation!”

Wei Jinghui took the cell phone and realized that it was an official notice. It was inviting Boqun Media to participate in Shanghai’s high-quality new media, media accounts, and live media award ceremonies!

Obviously, this event was also part of the recent self-media event. There were punishments and naturally commendations.

The media was a new type of media that was developing rapidly with the Internet era. There might be a barbaric growth and frequent chaos but this was a new thing after all. It could not be completely banned in one go. Instead, it had to be guided to develop in a healthy and positive direction and become an important supplement to traditional media.

Therefore, the official platform had to praise some outstanding accounts while punishing some bad accounts so that the entire media industry could learn and optimize them as role models.

And this time, it was the same at the same time!

According to the content of the notice, a total of 11 outstanding service media accounts were selected for this conference. Nine outstanding media accounts and 15 outstanding articles were selected.

Boqun Media was selected to have an outstanding media account and two outstanding articles!

These two outstanding articles had been released a few days ago. They had not been popular after they were released. However, because the content of these two articles was detailed and sufficient, their value was positive, they received official recognition and affirmation.

Wei Jinghui looked at this notice and then at Old Deng. He almost thought that he had seen wrongly.

This had completely exceeded his expectations.

He could even receive an award while working in the media?

Wei Jinghui had never thought about something like that.

There might be no bonus for this award but he represented the official recognition and affirmation. This was much more precious than money to the media industry.

Seeing that Wei Jinghui was a little confused, Old Deng quickly said, “Boss Wei, hurry up and prepare. This meeting will be on Friday morning. At that time, there will be a prize presentation and a live-stream. This is a good opportunity for our Boqun Media to show our faces. It will also be the first time we show ourselves in front of netizens after changing. You have to dress up when the time comes!”

Wei Jinghui was still confused. “But I…”

He wanted to say that he was guilty of accepting it. After all, he had not thought about promoting positive energy previously! He purely wanted to come to Tengda to spy and obtain evidence that was beneficial to the Tengda Alliance.

In the end, this spy came out with an outstanding commendation from Shanghai’s media!

However, he swallowed his words halfway.

He could not mention this. If others in the company found out that he was actually a spy for the Tengda Alliance, wouldn’t his image as the boss completely collapse?

At that thought, Wei Jinghui reluctantly nodded. “I understand. I’ll definitely participate tomorrow morning.”

Old Deng left Wei Jinghui’s office happily and began to discuss with the others in the company where he should put the certificate and trophy when the boss returned.

As he watched Old Deng leave, Wei Jinghui’s heart was filled with mixed feelings.

…

June 28th, Friday.

Zheng Hao switched on his cell phone and scrolled Weibo, wanting to see the latest development of the public opinion battle.

His entrepreneurial public lecture had been uploaded onto the video website and was very popular.

Although a few days had passed and there was a lot of criticism below the video, there were still many people who supported him overall.

On Weibo, Zheng Hao released the data of Boqun Media and made a beautiful comeback! The article that Boqun Media refuted previously was quickly drowned by the popularity. Zheng Hao had the upper hand in all aspects.

That had shaken many companies’ confidence in Tengda’s cooperation department.

Sun Strike Studios and Long Yu Corporation’s successful cooperation with Tengda gave many companies a blind trust in Tengda. The facts and cases of Bo Qun Media made these companies realize that working with Tengda did not guarantee success. It still depended on which field.

Indeed, many companies and even ordinary people agreed with Zheng Hao’s saying that Tengda’s no overtime model might not be suitable for all companies.

On top of that, many companies that had signed up for Tengda’s cooperation department but had not been selected were affected by the sour grapes. Companies that had a feud with Tengda were also adding fuel to the fire. The entire public opinion situation was great.

When things were going smoothly, people liked to check the battle situation frequently. They would only play dead when the wind was against them. Zheng Hao had nothing to do. He wanted to find the next target on Weibo to criticize and continue to expand his advantage.

However, he did not expect to find many people @ him the moment he was released.

Zheng Hao was a little strange. Could something have happened again?

He quickly searched and saw a photo of the news draft.

It looked like a very official venue. There was a red banner hanging above the conference room. On it were the words’ Shanghai’s high-quality new media, self media account and works award and live viewing session ‘.

There was a huge photograph under the banner. The outstanding media representative was holding a trophy and certificate. He stood upright.

And Wei Jinghui of Boqun Media was among them, he was rather eye-catching!

The others were either looking serious or elated. Only Wei Jinghui had a worried expression when he presented the award. Pei Qian did not know what he was thinking.

Zheng Hao was stunned!

At that moment, his expression was as confused as the Wei Jinghui in the photo.

Both of them were obviously not mentally prepared for the current situation.
