Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

After returning to his own place, Meng Chang immediately couldn't wait to take out his phone and check the online public opinion.

Whether or not it could be hidden from the public depended on tonight.

After posting that news as the official of Tengda Game, there were soon a large number of comments from the following netizens, and people on the major forums also reprinted it.

"Huh? So the new game that Tendai is working on...is a fitness game?"

"What the hell! Happy for nothing, I thought it was some big production."

"What the hell is a fitness game."

"Expecting for nothing, spoilsport!"

"Hey, is everyone bored? There's no need to jump to conclusions right now, either, the fitness game sounds pretty innovative, and the Tundra game has always had the power to turn the bad into the good, so I think we can still look forward to it!"

"Hey, it's not that I don't trust Pei, it's mainly because not many people like this type of game. Fitness games in the end it's also for fitness, it's hard to be particularly fun."

"The point is that Tengda games have been held back for more than half a year, I was expecting a masterpiece like Turning Back, and I ended up holding back a very perfunctory fitness game? It's too much to take in!"

"Why is Pei mixed up, too, because he's too busy with other industries?"

Meng Chang went through a lot of netizen comments in a row, and a smile finally appeared on his face.

Yes, it worked!

Everyone's attention has apparently been diverted away from the game.

There was a lot of speculation about what type of game the new game would be, and there were even people who actually guessed an RTS theme, but the official statement had a "hammering" effect.

Although some people have raised the question of "the two pictures don't look alike", but after all, neither Mission and Choice nor Gymkhana has been released yet, so who knows what the graphics will look like?

And most of the players could not even imagine that the official would be so shameless as to release information to mislead everyone, and they were all led astray by Meng Chang.

Meng Chang breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, there was no danger!

There had been a very big crisis, and the good news is that by a stroke of magic, I managed to turn it around and get back on track!

In this way, it should be possible to continue to hide the game until May 1st, and even if you can't get a full commission, it shouldn't be a problem to get 70-80 percent.

However, just as Meng Chang had just put his mind at ease, there were a few more new replies.

"Something's wrong! Everyone read this blog!"

A screenshot in the comments, posted by the official account of Fan Qi Media, reads, "Hollywood sci-fi masterpiece 'Battleship of the Furious Sea' is landing strong on May 1 prime time!"

"At a cost of $200 million, with great directors, a huge star-studded cast, and lots of real ships on screen!"

The microblog was also accompanied by various promotional images for Battleship of the Furious Sea, which were presented in a nine-pane format.

Just looking at this Weibo is nothing really, it's all normal promotional tactics.

But what was problematic was the first high praise comment below this Weibo.

"Supposedly a certain Chinese sci-fi movie was so scared that it changed its schedule on the spot? (dog's head) (dog's head) (dog's head)"

Most of the few hot reviews below were expressing anticipation for the movie, and this high praise review at the top of the point count seemed a bit out of place, but it was hard to ignore.

Soon, the review had hundreds of responses.

"Is it okay to be scared into changing your schedule? Does anyone know which movie it is?"

"I still want to laugh at what to do even though changing gears is a normal operation hahahaha..."

"An insider's scoop, it seems like a Tundra movie!"

"Huh? Seriously? Is there a new movie out on Tundra? What name?"

"Bullshit, Tengda movies will change their own schedules because they are afraid of foreign blockbusters? There's a limit to what you can touch!"

"That's right, 'A Better Tomorrow' is a box office and word-of-mouth hit, and that's just the first movie from Flying Yellow Studios, and the second movie will definitely be better if we sum up the experience! I believe that other companies are afraid of Hollywood blockbusters and changing their schedules, but Tengda is afraid of Hollywood blockbusters? Don't disgust me!"

Soon, there was a lot of noise below this high praise comment.

This is obviously all the work of the water army, to brush up the number of compliments on this comment, and then to start a war inside this comment, everyone scold each other, this heat will come, right?

Moreover, this account was still disguised as a passerby's account, so it could skirt the official account of Fan Qi Media, and even if there was any problem, it wouldn't set fire to it then.

And a large number of water soldiers, on the other hand, were secretly releasing the relevant news bit by bit while everyone was arguing.

"Don't don't believe me, just look it up, Mission and Choice is the new movie made by Tengda, originally scheduled for May 1st, it was urgently rescheduled to this weekend some time ago."

"Obviously it's just a wimp, otherwise how could anyone let go of the prime May Day slot and take the initiative to take a crap weekend slot?"

"I think it's a smart move, I'm sure he knows in his heart that he can't even beat it on May 1, so he can simply move up and still get more box office."

"I looked it up! And really hey, Tenda made a new movie without saying anything? How come I didn't even see any promotion for it, even down the list on the ticketing software, I didn't even notice it before!"

"And it's starring Lu Zhiyao, too! Hey, why is he the only one on the main cast list? Wrongly written?"

"I did see it before, but I was so offended by the name that I didn't even click in to see it. I didn't expect it to be produced by Tengda?"

Where Qi Media's navy fanned the flames a little and this heat was up.

A lot of people were still in disbelief, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the real thing!

Tengda really came out with a movie called "Mission and Choice", which was indeed shelved from May 1 to this weekend, and what the high praise and hot reviews say is all true!

But many Tengda fans are even more unacceptable.

The Flying Yellow studio that could make A Better Tomorrow had already made a name for itself, and although Battleship of the Furious Sea was a Hollywood blockbuster, it didn't seem to be the top of the line kind.

Just this kind of enemy, can make Flying Yellow Studio admit defeat? Voluntarily change gears to avoid?

That doesn't make any sense!

The Tengda fans who were being snubbed and rubbed the heat by the navy were all furious, spouting off against each other online while very reluctantly looking around for evidence.

Definitely not gearing up out of fear, that's just not Tengda's style of doing things!

Finally, someone said the truth in a nutshell.

"Everyone look at the title and synopsis of this movie, isn't this the same Mission and Choice that was called 'National Tour of Shame'? It's all about the Zerg invasion plot, why do I see it more and more like this?"

"Huh, yeah, I thought it was a coincidence before, but on closer inspection the name is clearly a coincidence?"

"A remake? Or did you buy the rights?"

"Psycho! Even if you buy the rights you're definitely making a game, so why make a remake?"

"Well...have you guys ever considered a scenario where you've made both a game and a movie, perhaps?"

"Huh?"

"Do you guys remember that picture from the official interview earlier? There had been a lot of speculation that it might be an RTS game, for two reasons: first, that picture is God's perspective, and second, Tengda rarely makes games that repeat the same type, and RTS games haven't been made yet. In a comprehensive analysis, the possibility of an RTS game is actually very high!"

"No, didn't they officially say the new game was Fitness Wars?"

"But it's not official! Is it any wonder that the marketing ghostwriter of Tundra is playing a bit of a player? If you really want to promote it, isn't it even stranger that you can't see any promotional material for this movie even though it's coming out soon?"

"Indeed, the more I look at these two images of the game, the more I see that they are very different and completely different!"

"That's right, how can a fitness game be developed for half a year with the efficiency of Tengda?"

"Does that mean...the big one is coming?!"

"Tunda's new game can't really be Mission and Choices, don't fuck with me!"

The players, true to their Holmes possessions, immediately flocked to it after finding a breakthrough!

Meng Chang's message as an official had temporarily distracted the players, but in a good way, Fan Qi Media's microblogging brought the battle to the Mission and Choice movie, so the players' attention, which was easily diverted, returned and intensified, and they became even more certain that the game is an RTS game!

Meng Chang's expression was dull and his brain was blank.

To him, this wasn't even the most terrifying thing.

The most terrifying thing was that, from the information on the internet, the Mission and Choice movie had been scheduled for April 14th, which was this weekend!

What does this mean?

Meng Chang is not clear about the specific plot of Mission and Choice, but he knows that the game and the movie are Siamese twins, the movie will be released, and the game will definitely be released on the same day.

Otherwise, after the movie is released, the plot will be discussed and rotten, and the players will be spoiled by the drama, how can the game still be played?

The movie being brought up means that the game's release date must be brought up as well.

"No, why didn't anyone tell me about something this big?"

"I always thought the movie didn't come out until May 1!"

"Pitbull this is!"

"So, that game too..."

Meng Chang didn't dare to think about it further.

It was as if he pulled down his own face to ask for another ten million from Pei, and also engaged in a flirtatious operation, resulting in all the work for nothing?

Wait, it doesn't seem like it was a waste of time, and it seems to have exposed Fitness Wars....

"Psycho!"

"What's the point of changing it when the 51st gear is fine!"

"The movie comes out on the 14th, the game is released, and I get a hammer commission! It can't go unnoticed!"

It wasn't that Meng Chang let his guard down, the point really wasn't told about this, and it was impossible for Meng Chang to think that a movie with such a huge investment wouldn't be on May Day, but instead would be moved up to a weekend trash slot.

This was completely unreasonable!

Meng Chang's mentality completely collapsed, although he could then pray for poor sales after the game's release, but even then, the commission he could get wouldn't be much.

The key is that he put off this operation, and in the end, he didn't even know that the time had been changed, it was like fighting with the air.

If I had known that it had been changed, why struggle with a hammer? Just lay flat!

Meng Chang sat paralyzed on the sofa, as if he had lost his soul.

It's over, it's all over!

Mr. Pei has set me up again!
