Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 106 Super Big Melon
"Hey, have you heard? TV Asahi..."

"I heard about it. It was news that was suddenly spread on the Internet. It's everywhere. It's really hateful. Those guys have no bottom line..."

"Not just Asahi, but several other TV stations..."

At this moment, the talk show is still going on, and Zhu Yuxing is still checking the effect of the broadcast behind the camera in the studio.

He was satisfied with the overall situation, and that was enough.

But at this moment, several TV employees who came in beside him seemed to be whispering something.

Zhu Yuxing didn't take it seriously, but it didn't take long for more and more voices to discuss other TV stations.

This made him start to wonder.

Director Kubo also didn't know the reason, so he directly pulled someone over to ask what was going on.

After the man answered hesitantly, Kubo was stunned on the spot.

"Just ten minutes ago, the Internet was full of various high-level scandals about TV stations, including tax evasion from TV stations, 'private meetings' between TV station executives and several female stars at the same time, and harassment of female subordinates, and many, many more. A lot in one go."

After listening to it, Kubo felt bad, and hurriedly said goodbye to Zhu Yuxing, and then ran out of the studio, completely disregarding his image as the director.

And Zhu Yuxing was also shocked when he heard the explanation from the employee just now.

However, he was not surprised by these news. Zhu Yuxing, who lives after 2020, has heard more outrageous news than this, but it is a bit outrageous that the high-level scandals of TV stations are collectively exposed on the Internet.

Scandals appear one by one, and this employee just said a lot directly.

How much is a lot?
Zhu Yuxing also seemed to be a little helpless and wanted to find a computer to take a look at.

It's a pity that the mobile phone network is not yet fully formed, but I heard that the development of the mobile Internet has been promoted, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the commercial use.

However, just after the end of the show, this live broadcast event has come to an end. Next, the public relations staff of Takahashi on stage will take other public relations teams one by one to radio programs and newspaper column interviews to continue their actions to maintain video games, but that is not the case. Need Zhu Yuxing to follow, they will do it themselves.

"You guys have worked hard."

The relaxation in the studio had just ended, and the host and others were still bowing slightly to express their thanks to a kind of employee, and then a group of panicked employees went around the studio to deliver news, as if something really happened.

"President Zhuyou, what happened? Why do these people seem so panicked?"

Takahashi walked in front of Zhu Yuxing's face with doubts.

Zhu Yuxing shrugged: "It looks like a scandal broke out on the TV station."

Takahashi's eyes lit up when he heard Take Yusei's words: "A scandal broke out on a TV station? Which TV station is it? TV Tokyo?"

"Sounds like... a lot."

"very many?"

"Find a computer to take a look at it later. It is said to be everywhere on the Internet."

Takahashi seemed a little excited. He said, "President, this is a good opportunity."

"good chance?"

Takahashi nodded vigorously: "Yeah, you may not understand this, but if this kind of scandal is serious enough, it can divert the attention of the crowd. The fights that happened in our video games originally It's not serious, it's those TV stations who are deliberately provoking conflicts, hoping to use their own influence to interfere with national legislation and suppress video games, but as long as this topic no longer attracts public attention and the discussion heats down, then our Crisis can be resolved directly.”

Makes sense.

Zhu Yuxing hadn't thought of that much just now. He wasn't someone who was involved in a public relations crisis, and he didn't immediately make an association.

But Takahashi is clearly an industry veteran and knows best what to do.

First of all, the best solution is not to take the initiative to save in the event of a crisis.

The best solution is to divert people's attention from it.

The second is to save reputation.

Takahashi has always wanted to divert the public's attention. The various news announced in the live broadcast before are considered to be a distraction. Don't hold on to the fight.

It's just that this way of diverting attention is obviously not as good as a blockbuster news in other industries.

"Come on, let's go find a computer."

Zhu Youxing also wanted to see what kind of news had appeared on the Internet. The news that was enough to make these people panic must not be simple.

Take Yusei and Takahashi randomly found a common rest area on the TV station, where there are usually public computers for visitors and company employees.

But by the time the two of them passed, the computers were already occupied, and many TV station employees gathered in front of a computer to discuss loudly.

"God, my favorite innocent actress is like this..."

"Bastards! These guys have evaded and evaded taxes by hundreds of millions, and they are so bold!"

"These high-level officials should go to hell!"

The employees of the TV station were swearing, and Zhu Yuxing and Takahashi also came over curiously.

A TV station employee is sitting in front of a computer quickly browsing various information published all over the Internet.

Now whenever you click on a normal web page, a dialog box will pop up first.

This dialog will have a scandal about a certain TV station executive.

Just like what the employee who was stopped by Director Kubo just said, many scandals broke out at the same time.

Tax evasion, secret political donations to members of a certain party, harassment of female subordinates, female stars in high-level collective private associations, etc.

Every time you click on a normal web page, a pop-up will pop up, which is completely different.

Zhu Yuxing was surprised by the intensity of the news, while Takahashi was excited by the intensity of the news.

"President Zhuyou, it seems that we don't need to worry about our problems anymore. I just glanced at it, and a lot of news is about the scandals of the top four TV stations. This is because there are experts on the Internet helping us secretly! "

Masters on the Internet...

Take Yuxing couldn't help but think of Tsukino Aya.

But...it shouldn't be, she's not that old either, usually she just seems to have better computer knowledge, and it doesn't seem like something that one person can do.

But presumably Tsukino Aya should know something.

Zhu Yuxing turned his head to look at Takahashi: "Then our crisis is now resolved?"

Takahashi nodded: "It's basically lifted. Compared to these scandals that suddenly broke out collectively, our kind of fights can only be regarded as small and no longer small, unless these TV stations can ignore the maintenance of their own image. also slander us."

Obviously, this is almost impossible to happen.

At this moment, except for the two TV stations Tokyo TV and NHK, the middle, high-level, and even bottom-level of the other four TV stations are in a state of desperation.

"Damn it! What the hell is going on? Why is there so much negative news about us all of a sudden on the Internet? Who took the pictures? Who left the evidence?!"

A roar came from several high-rise offices at the same time.

In fact, this kind of scandal is neither big nor small.

The point is that there are too many at once.

Whenever one or two of their vicious scandals suddenly appeared, they could find a way to resolve them so that the people would slowly forget them.

But this popped up a bunch directly on the Internet.

You can't stop it.

Now all of Japan can see these messages wherever you can log on to the Internet, and it's not the same.

Of course, the TV station is not likely to be hit hard by this.

But for the current TV executives, it is very deadly.

Some of them involve moral and ethical issues, while others directly violate the law.

beep.

At present, the mobile phones of many TV station executives are ringing.

Some received an invitation to drink tea directly from the Japanese government, while others received 'cordial condolences' from their higher-ups

For a time, many TV stations jumped around.

Various talk shows that were supposed to discredit video games were canceled immediately.

The top management was already breaking out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly asked the subordinates to quickly find a way to eliminate the influence.

However, the Internet is not their turf, but belongs to a new group of forces: the Internet upstarts.

This is a group of guys who suddenly became rich in the process of the birth and rise of the Internet. Through the Internet, they have the tendency to become new chaebols.

This is a group that is completely separated from the traditional Japanese forces in the past. It is impossible to find a place to speak to eliminate the influence of the Internet.

In fact, now those Internet upstarts are also confused.

My own website is operating well, but suddenly it has become a news website that reports behind-the-scenes information, which is outrageous.

In the early days of the Internet, there was no systematic network defense. At that time, even people with a little computer knowledge could hack into a certain network platform.

If they can understand more advanced network knowledge, then they are like fish entering the water in the current Internet, and they can swim anywhere.

However, two or three websites are mainly attacked, but they are also the most frequently visited by people.

This is enough, just like when Chinese people of later generations use computers, they will choose to log in to Baidu or other search platforms to search for things almost immediately.

Once such a site is compromised, everyone knows about everything.

When the Internet upstarts found out that the intruder was just spreading news and did not cause any interference to their network, they were relieved.

This intruder should be relatively normal, but this also alerts them to start thinking about network protection, otherwise the problem is not a big problem this time, and it may not be the case next time.

In just one day, the video game fights were directly ignored by people, and now there are melon eaters everywhere.

The big melons on TV are much more delicious than the mere fights!
