Chapter 1 The Game Producer

Lu Mingliang was the first to rush over.

"President Pei! Good news!"

"I've noticed that the sales growth of our game has accelerated significantly recently, and the reputation has also been trending upwards!"

"So I investigated and found that some people have really discovered the connotations of your game, as well as the deeper meaning of the 'performance art-style marketing'!"

"President Pei, your promotional strategy is truly amazing. We didn't understand it at all at the beginning. Unexpectedly, everything was within your plan!"

"Our game has finally been understood by the players!"

"Your efforts have not been in vain!"

Pei Qian didn't speak, his expression frozen for a moment.

What the hell?

Did things really backfire this badly?

Sales are up, and the reputation is up too?

Damn it, how is this possible? I haven't done anything!

And what the heck is "performance art-style marketing"?!

What exactly is going on!

Seeing the eager gazes of everyone, Pei Qian tried his best to remain calm, putting on an expression that said, "Everything is under control." He said, "Don't rush, tell me slowly."

Lu Mingliang handed over his phone, his face full of excitement. "President Pei, see for yourself!"

Pei Qian took the phone from Lu Mingliang with a suspicious heart.

It was a video on Sweet Potato (Fan Shu) Network, with high popularity. The title was: *Deified Masterpiece, Episode 1: 'Game Producer' and a Large-Scale Performance Art!*

Looking at the video creator, it was Qiao Laoshi!

Pei Qian put on his headphones and silently watched amidst the cheers and noises of the employees.

Silence.

Confusion.

Shock.

He even began to doubt his life...

What the hell is this?!

Hearing the "performance art" part, Pei Qian was already on the verge of collapse. After hearing the analysis of *Game Producer*, Pei Qian was completely speechless.

Even more despairing was the comment section below!

Qiao Laoshi, who had been scolded like a dog, had become a performance artist overnight and turned his life around!

Even taking endorsements was no longer just taking endorsements but had become "artistic endorsements"!

After this video became popular, the previous video, as well as endorsement videos released by other video creators, also became popular.

More people were imitating him. "Qiao-ism" not only did not decline but instead gained more popularity in this short period of time, leading to a big explosion!

The scariest thing was that Pei Qian couldn't explain it at all now.

Even if he stood up and said that the so-called "performance art" was nonsense, that these were just endorsement videos to disgust players...

The players definitely wouldn't believe it!

Not only would they not believe it, but they might also regard it as a new form of performance art. When those silly netizens forwarded it, and it went viral...

Then it would be even more out of control!

Pei Qian finished watching the entire video, his hands trembling slightly.

This...

Something really happened!

A big thing happened!

Lu Mingliang stood aside, seeing President Pei's reaction, and couldn't help but sigh.

As expected, President Pei was silently shouldering too much.

Being able to meet someone like Qiao Laoshi on the internet who truly understood him and could read him was inevitably exciting, and his hands were even shaking.

It seemed that he could continue to cooperate with Qiao Laoshi for future games; it was simply a perfect win-win situation!

Lu Mingliang continued, "President Pei, the good news is not just this."

"Just now, the ESRO official platform published an article, specifically praising *Game Producer*, and even put *Game Producer* on the platform's homepage!"

"The official platform saw the sincerity of our game. They have always encouraged domestic games to innovate and not always imitate foreign games."

"They appreciate the gameplay and connotations of *Game Producer* very much, and they will arrange more and better recommendation slots for our game in the future!"

"Also, many well-known game review media and player opinion leaders have given high praise to our game."

"Some of the deep connotations you buried in the game, even the connotations that we didn't see, have been dug out by these people!"

"President Pei, our game's reputation has reversed!"

Pei Qian leaned back in his chair, looked up slightly, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

After a moment, he regained his composure and squeezed out two words from between his teeth with a smile.

"Not bad."

Lu Mingliang couldn't help but sigh.

President Pei was indeed a man who does great things. Such a big happy event, yet he could remain calm and composed, regaining his composure in just a moment!

However, the action of exhaling still exposed him. Sure enough, President Pei's initial happiness was fake, and his heart had been hanging all the time, and he finally felt at ease now!

"President Pei, would you like to say a few words to everyone?" Lu Mingliang asked.

Pei Qian waved his hand. "No, this is just a stage success. Stay humble."

Lu Mingliang nodded sharply. "Okay, President Pei, I understand!"

He turned around and went to drink happily.

This time the atmosphere was really heated up, and everyone in the design team was toasting and feasting!

However, Pei Qian's heart was cold, and he couldn't eat a bite.

His mind was full of question marks.

What the hell is going on?

I only gave Qiao Laoshi money for one video, so how did he make two videos?

Buy one get one free?

Are you taking revenge?

It must be!

But it doesn't make sense. I made you the founder of "Qiao-ism." You should hate me, so why are you repaying kindness with ingratitude and continuing to make videos to help me promote *Game Producer*???

What kind of hatred is this!

But the most deadly thing is not this.

This video has become a fuse, inexplicably igniting the fire of everyone's over-interpretation of *Game Producer*!

Official platforms, as well as many game review media, have all praised *Game Producer*!

Especially the official platform, which actually praised *Game Producer* by name and even put the game directly on the homepage, meaning that other domestic game manufacturers should take a good look and learn from it; this is what our supported domestic games should look like!

Pei Qian felt instantly paralyzed.

According to the current situation, he was likely to be busy for nothing again this time!

...

...

April 14th.

"Alright, that's a wrap!"

"President Pei's acting skills are getting more and more exquisite."

"So, season three of *President Pei's Daily Life* has officially wrapped up filming. Everyone has worked hard!"

Warm applause rang out in the office area of Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd.

Since the filming of *President Pei's Daily Life* began, Fei Huang Studio has continuously filmed 30 episodes of content, for a total of three seasons.

The first episode of the first season and the last episode of the third season were both filmed in Tengda's office area, which can be said to have a beginning and an end.

The first two seasons were mainly released on large video websites such as Sweet Potato (Fan Shu) Network to accumulate popularity.

So far, the total number of views for the last episode of the second season has successfully exceeded two million, and *President Pei's Daily Life* is already an undisputed internet drama!

And with such excellent data performance, Huang Sibao and Zhu Xiaoce decided to sign an exclusive broadcast agreement with Ailidao. In the future, *President Pei's Daily Life* will only be broadcast exclusively on Ailidao's website.

In order to ensure that this website change is successful, directors Huang Sibao and Zhu Xiaoce have also made a lot of preparations.

They worked hard to finish filming all of season three in the near future to ensure that they had enough ammunition in their hands.

After that, they would cooperate with Ailidao's official publicity and various homepage recommendations to try to divert all the viewers of *President Pei's Daily Life* on the entire network to Ailidao and push up the number of views and popularity as much as possible in the short term!

In this way, Ailidao would gain traffic, and Fei Huang Studio would gain a means of monetization, a standard win-win situation.

Since they signed an exclusive broadcast agreement, the video was only released on Ailidao's website, so the website gave a more generous reward.

After all, it costs a lot of money to attract traffic in the early stages of a website.

Pei Qian had not asked about these details.

Because he was now very worried about *Game Producer*!

Two weeks after its release, the sales of *Game Producer* were constantly climbing, and so far, it has successfully broken 100,000!

Considering that the data in the first week was a bit bleak and only started to pick up in the second week, this data was already quite good.

But Pei Qian felt that this was more like his death countdown...
