Chapter 1137: Split The Invoice, One With Discount, The Other Without!

There were also some live-streamers who started the live-stream after receiving the VR glasses. However, there was no “Animal Island” on the glasses at the moment. There wasn’t even a demo for this game. There were only some VR games that were currently available on the market.

These streamers could feel that the effect of these VR games on the Doubt VR glasses was smoother than other glasses, but they could not widen the gap visibly because the clarity of these games was not high to begin with.

What’s more, it was difficult to describe the effect of VR live-streaming.

Be it computers or cell phone games, the game graphics were the same as the live-stream. What the audience saw was the live-streamer playing.

However, the VR game was completely different. The host’s perspective was a free perspective. He looked around and was very immersed. However, the audience only had one feeling: dizziness!

He could not take it anymore after watching for a while. He could not even experience the immersion of VR games.

Therefore, even if some UP Masters and streamers released the game’s internal graphics to experience the VR, it was useless because they could not convey the specific feeling to the audience in front of the screen.

The audience could not even tell the difference between these VR glasses and the other VR glasses on the screen.

Qiao Liang could not help but feel puzzled. Why was he not arranged for an experience with the VR glasses when these small live-streamers with thousands were arranged to have it?

Am I, Teacher Qiao, that unknown?

What’s more, I’m so close to the official platform. I’m on good terms with Boss Pei and Slow Movement Studio’s Boss Lin. How could they have forgotten about me during the evaluation?

This was ridiculous!

That made it impossible for me to help even if I wanted to!

That made Qiao Liang anxious.

The publicity plan for the VR glasses suffered a huge setback in the beginning. It seemed to show a state of making one wrong step after another. Ever since Meng Chang announced the news of his cooperation with Slow Movement Studio on Weibo, every step after that seemed to step on the more hated point of the players, dragging the entire project down step by step.

Qiao Liang could not help but feel anxious. He quickly found the number of the chief designer of Slow Movement Studio, Cai Jiadong, and called him.

After working together for a period of time, the two of them were more familiar with each other. Thus, Qiao Liang could say many things directly.

“Old Cai! You saw the promotional video for the VR glasses, right? What’s going on? The response was very bad!”

Cai Jiadong’s confused voice came from the other end of the line. “Er… I saw it, but we did not make this promotional video at all. I heard from Boss Lin that the publicity plan this time was handled by the advertising and marketing department. All the proposals were produced by them.”

Qiao Liang asked, “In other words… Meng Chang is in charge of everything? He didn’t ask for your opinions?”

Cai Jiadong: “That’s right. I’m not sure about the specific situation either, but the Advertisement and marketing department are all professionals. They should know more than us.”

Qiao Liang was a little anxious. “Aren’t you paying attention to it?”

“Meng Chang has a past record. How can you trust him?!”

Cai Jiadong was a little helpless. “How can we have the time to pay attention! Now, ‘Animal Island’ has to follow Boss Pei’s instructions to make the final modifications to the newbie guide. We can’t work overtime. Our working period is very tight.”

“However… I overheard Boss Lin mention something unintentionally. He said that Boss Pei seemed to be in charge of the publicity plan this time.”

“So… there shouldn’t be any big problems.”

Qiao Liang was silent for a moment. “Alright, I understand. Thank you, Old Cai.”

Qiao Liang calmed down after hanging up.

Qiao Liang was very worried when he saw that the initial publicity for the VR glasses was so rubbish and had the opposite effect. Coupled with Meng Chang’s past record of not doing anything during the Cold-Faced Lady period.

Who knew if Meng Chang would suddenly lose his mind and cause some destruction?

However, Qiao Liang was suddenly relieved when he heard that Boss Pei was in charge of the publicity plan this time.

How could the little Meng Chang turn the situation around with Boss Pei around?

Impossible!

No matter what Meng Chang did, he would definitely not be able to jump out of Boss Pei’s Five Finger Mountain.

What’s more, Qiao Liang suddenly felt a sense of deja vu once he accepted the setting of ‘all publicity plans are actually managed by Boss Pei’.

Where exactly did this feel familiar…

This feeling, especially with many streamers and UP Masters awkwardly praising their own game made Qiao Liang recall the feeling when Game Designer was first released a long time ago.

“Could it be that there is a deeper meaning behind Boss Pei’s arrangements this time?”

Qiao Liang fell into deep thought.

…

At the same time, Pei Qian had just finished his dinner and returned to his residence. He contacted Hu Xiao online.

“How is it? My brothers have completed their tasks well, right?” Hu Xiao could not help but feel proud because everything was progressing according to his instructions.

Pei Qian replied, “Yes, well done. Let me take a look at the invoice. According to what we agreed on previously, we’ll split the charges into two types this time with multiple transactions, calculating each transaction differently.”

Hu Xiao: “Alright, please hold on.”

He did not know why this big boss wanted to split into many transactions and calculate separately, but since the client had made such a request, he had to satisfy it.

The fake reviewers were divided into two groups.

The first type was awkward bragging. It was to disguise as a passerby to brag about how useful and awesome Slow Movement Studio’s glasses were. The more awkward it was, the better. There was no need to worry about people discovering that it was fake reviewers.

The other type was to lead the way. That was to turn around and question Slow Movement Studio and Meng Chang’s unreliability. That was to say that the glasses were only to buy popularity. In fact, the products would definitely not be good.

The first type of awkward bragging was using some low-end fake reviewers. There might be a lot but there was no technical content. The second type of fake reviewers were more high-end. The information was real and hidden better. There were not many but the impact was not small.

In the end, the first type would definitely be more expensive because of the large quantity, but the second type would not be cheap either.

Hu Xiao did not know what tricks the other party was playing. Other people would either boast, diss, or criticize others. Who would hire two groups of people to do opposite ends?

What was he playing at?

However, since this old boss was willing to play this way, so be it. It was so simple to get money. There was no need to think so much.

What’s more, Hu Xiao had long suspected that the other party had some relationship with Tengda. He had a special purpose in buying fake reviewers.

However, the other party was too mysterious. What’s more, the operator seems to be changing frequently. Sometimes, he was very generous and did not even bother to bargain. Sometimes, he seemed to be a little calculative, rounding down their quotes and giving discounts. This made Hu Xiao completely unable to figure out the other party’s background.

He did not dare to ask too much. It would not be worth it if he accidentally offended such an old client.

Soon, Hu Xiao sorted out the price list.

That was because they were all old clients and trusted each other very much. Thus, they paid a small deposit first before paying the full sum.

“This is the bill. Please take a look.”

Pei Qian received the document and scanned it.

“…So expensive!”

He could not help but curse inwardly.

The fake reviewers this time were basically divided into two groups. One group of low-end fake reviewers was in charge of awkwardly praising the game. Basically, they were 50 to 80 yuan per day. 200 people constantly changed their accounts and posted their posts. Coupled with the expenses of their accounts, they spent more than 80,000 yuan in five days.

All of these were easy because the System would allow them to reimburse their products.

The other group was the high-end fake reviewers. Those in charge of leading the questioning were basically 200 yuan per day. After all, this was a technical job that only experienced fake reviewers could do.

He had hired 50 people. He had spent more than 50,000 yuan in five days.

That was because the entire fake reviewer activity had been operating since Tengda released the news to clarify their relationship with Slow Movement Studio. It had been operating until now. Thus, these two groups of people had been working non-stop. There was no need to separate them further.

A total of 130,000 yuan. Of course, that was the original price.

Hu Xiao tried asking, “They’re all based on the price we agreed on previously. Are you satisfied?”

Pei Qian was silent for a moment, and then replied. “You remember the previous time when I said that the discounts for buying fake reviewers had accumulated until now, right?”

Hu Xiao immediately replied, “Of course! I’ll give you a discount.”

Pei Qian quickly said, “Wait!”

“Don’t calculate the discounts together. Keep the invoice with 80,000 yuan at the original price. Give me more discounts for the invoice with 50,000 yuan.”

Hu Xiao was stunned.

What did this mean?

Give a discount for one invoice and no discount for the other invoice in the same batch of orders?

What was happening?

Hu Xiao understood all of a sudden. “Oh! I understand! The department that hired these two batches of fake reviewers is not the same, right? Both departments are looking for you to be the middleman, but the amount of funds they can use is different?”

Pei Qian: “…”

He did not know how to reply. He could only say ambiguously, “More or less.”

Hu Xiao replied quickly. “No problem! Don’t worry, these details are negotiable.”

“How about this? We won’t give a discount for the first sum. We’ll continue with the original price: 86,500 yuan.”

“I’ll give you a 30% discount for the second stroke! A total of 38,360 yuan. I’ll round down to 38,000 yuan, how about that!”

Pei Qian suddenly felt pain.

Meng Chang, Meng Chang, I spent a lot of money to keep you in the advertising department!

38,000 yuan was enough for you to get a basic salary for a year.

Oh, right. Now that his base salary had risen, he could get it in nine months.

If the situation was optimistic and he could get a guaranteed commission, it would only take six months, half a year.

Pei Qian could not help but shake his head halfway through his thoughts. “Why am I doing this!”

The 38,000 yuan was a little painful to Pei Qian.

However, he had no other choice. He could not bear to lose this ‘child’.

It would be worth it if this 38,000 yuan investment could make Meng Chang continue to work hard for him in exchange for the VR glasses project being unprofitable!
