Chapter 192 Time

Time entered 2008.

This year, so familiar to Su Yehao, had returned after many years.

Due to problems within the U.S. itself, it was mired in subprime mortgages and inflation. From the beginning of the year, it began to frantically shift the blame outward, imposing anti-dumping duties on steel pipes made to the north.

The symbolic significance was greater than the real impact.

Su Yehao was invited to attend the World Economic Forum in Davos, a famous Swiss ski resort, at the end of January, where he also encountered the U.S. frantically fueling the fire.

After returning from Switzerland, he rehearsed several times and sang a song called "As Wishes" on the Spring Festival Gala, which once again became a hit on the entire internet.

As the RMB continued to appreciate, it had a negative impact on the foreign trade industry, making some low-value-added foreign trade businesses more difficult.

Su Yehao was not affected. On the contrary, due to holding a large amount of RMB assets, his asset value rose slightly. International funds poured into the internet and semiconductor fields for safe haven, further pushing up his total net worth.

Starting from the end of January.

Several cold waves swept across the southern regions, causing direct economic losses of up to hundreds of billions of RMB. February and March were chaotic all over the world.

In the past, people lived in familiar small circles, and unless they paid special attention, the information they came into contact with was limited.

Now, with the expansion of the internet, while making people's lives more convenient and faster, they are also surrounded by negative information from all over the world.

Faced with the impact of the information torrent, coupled with people venting their dissatisfaction on the internet without restraint, it is indeed easy to become unhappy.

Therefore.

In March, Su Yehao asked people to re-study the news push algorithm, categorizing it by tags, and trying to introduce negative news about society and international affairs, while improving the push algorithm for Weibo and Q&A products.

Otherwise, if users have a sense of resistance when they think of a certain product, it is easy for other entrepreneurs to seize the opportunity, leading to a large loss of users.

By first understanding this negative energy that permeates every corner of the internet, it is natural to understand why products such as Douyin and Bilibili are so popular and win the love of young netizens compared to traditional media.

The pressure in daily life is already great enough, and many people do not want to add extra pressure. It is enough to know about some major events far from life, and other content should be mainly interesting and happy.

Also in March.

A proposal on dividing the minimum viewing age for film and television dramas, planned by Tianyu Entertainment and submitted by Su Yehao, aroused widespread approval.

Compared with adults who are more capable of bearing it, children and adolescents are more psychologically vulnerable. Many netizens have been harmed by horror movie tickets distributed at the school gate, which can easily create shadows.

Some oddball parents will also take their children to see inappropriate movies for their own happiness, and then blame the cinema for being at fault.

So, of course, such a proposal, not for film classification, but only to protect the mental health of children, aroused many cheers.

Of course.

Many netizens just hope to keep the children out, so as not to make a lot of noise and affect their viewing experience.

At the end of April, after Su Yehao passed on the Olympic flame, he couldn't shake off the worries in his heart when he thought of the upcoming May.

Some things are not convenient for too many people to know.

He personally printed a letter, and attached a bank account, and sent it to the Wong Tai Sin Temple in Casino, 1997.

The content of the letter was very simple. As long as a post was made on the internet saying that an earthquake might occur at a certain time and place, and it was insisted that it was the result of one's own celestial induction, the three million US dollars in the account would be the reward.

If it were someone else, they might be willing to do it for three hundred dollars.

Wong Tai Sin is different. This graduate of the Department of Finance of the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom is a well-known figure throughout Southeast Asia. If you want him to help at the expense of his reputation... you have to add money.

Three million US dollars, converted into Hong Kong dollars, is more than 20 million, which is equivalent to several years of Wong Tai Sin's income.

Even if his reputation is ruined afterwards, there is no problem in directly retiring and enjoying his old age. Besides, he can also use excuses such as being hacked, children being naughty, being drunk, etc., and others may not necessarily take it seriously.

Su Yehao was originally worried that Wong Tai Sin would not be willing to do it.

It seemed that he overestimated his character. The day after the letter was sent, Su Yehao saw the post he asked him to post on Wong Tai Sin's news Weibo homepage.

It is estimated that as soon as he confirmed that the bank account was real, that guy couldn't wait to help accomplish this matter.

Without caring about regretting that he might have given too much money, Su Yehao took a screenshot and then spent some small money to find water troops (internet commenters) to help, only saying that a movie needed publicity and asking people to help repost this picture.

With a mere 100,000 yuan of operating funds invested, the news fermented on the internet, and then some money was spent to buy hot searches, which quickly became a hit on the entire internet.

After personally operating this matter, Su Yehao was both gratified and speechless, thinking that the hot search on Yinhai Weibo must be rectified, so as not to be exploited by some ulterior motives.

A mere hundreds of thousands could cause such a heat, no wonder some turd-stirrers can fan the flames all over the world.

It's easy to spread rumors, but it's exhausting to refute them. As the absolute overlord of the mainland internet industry, Su Yehao felt that he needed to do something.

He himself rarely reposted, and wrote in a joking tone - "Is this Wong Tai Sin drunk? If this can be accurately calculated, I will definitely go to the temple to grab the first incense next year. Are there any experts to help identify it? This is the feng shui master I have been working with for many years, and he is usually very accurate."

The reason for reposting the comment was mainly to add fuel to the fire and prevent his subordinates from deleting the post.

Sure enough.

After his comment, the heat quickly rushed to the first place on the hot search list.

That's all he could do. With Su Yehao fueling the fire, a well-known earthquake expert really ran to join in the fun, and found signs of dry ponds, abnormal toads and poultry, etc., which aroused widespread attention in the local area. As a precaution, the crowd was evacuated in advance.

……

Mid-May.

Wong Tai Sin was completely on fire, and it was the kind that was so red that it turned purple.

It is estimated that Wong Tai Sin himself was terrified, but did not show it.

Especially after Su Yehao came to him, hoping to sign Wong Tai Sin for ten years as a consultant, for the sake of profit, this guy was very arrogant, and told everyone that he had spent five years of his lifespan to calculate such a result.

A group of experts were speechless and had no way to analyze anything.

Even the results were calculated by pinching fingers. It would be a ghost to find something that could be used for reference. They couldn't all change their careers to learn fortune-telling, and could only treat it as a coincidence, encountering a small probability event, and God bless.

Su Yehao, who successfully withdrew and did not leak any flaws, donated a total of one billion RMB for disaster relief, and then left without leaving a trace, hiding his merits and fame.

Only he himself knew that this was a great accumulation of virtue...
