In the afternoon, at Long Yu Corporation.
Chrétien, Jin Yong, and IOI’s operations and cooperation department held an emergency meeting.
Everyone took their seats. The atmosphere in the conference room was rather solemn.
For some reason, Jin Yong felt a sense of deja vu.
This scene… seemed to have happened often before.
However, at that time, Eric was sitting at the head of the table. Zhao Xuming was sitting next to him. Jin Yong was only attending the meeting and did not express his opinion.
Now, Eric and Zhao Xuming were no longer good partners. If it was Chrétien and him, the positions would still be the same.
However, it was different from before.
Previously, he had often been resting at home and being urgently called to the company for meetings because Tengda seemed to like making such a big deal out of holidays.
However, this time, everyone was working overtime on Saturday to keep an eye on IOI’s global finals. Thus, it was quite convenient to drive.
He did not know if this was considered lucky or unlucky…
At that moment, it was as if everything had changed. Even Chrétien’s frown and troubled expression seemed to be carved from the same model as Eric’s.
After a long time, Chrétien heaved a long sigh. “This move is really ruthless!”
He looked at Jin Yong. “How did we arrange our future marketing plan?”
Jin Yong answered truthfully. “There are no changes to the current arrangements. It is still around the popularity of FV Team, hype up their relationship with other teams, and drive the discussion of the entire competition online.”
“What should I do? Should I change it?”
Chrétien was a little frustrated. “The key is how to change it!”
There was no other way for them to bring popularity to FV Team.
FV Team was the previous defending champion. They were good at performance and had a lot of attention both domestically and overseas.
It would be too obvious if he skipped FV Team to market other teams. It seemed like he was deliberately targeting them, and the effect might not be good.
That was why Finger Games decided to use the current marketing method after researching: marketing around FV Team to drive the popularity of other teams. Then, they would weaken FV Team’s strength through the version changes. That way, the new champion would be able to completely inherit the popularity from FV Team.
Such marketing would only make the protagonist more legendary if FV Team could not win the championship.
For example, if IOI’s global finals was a mountain range, FV Team was the highest mountain in the mountain range.
Now, it was actually very stupid for FV to pull another mountain up if they wanted to raise this mountain group. Instead, they might as well try their best to raise FV Team. That way, they would be able to raise the mountain group together and the other mountains would be able to share the popularity.
However, something unexpected happened!
GOG’s new function had fundamentally increased the discussion and popularity of GOG’s international invitational tournament.
On the other hand, the popularity on the internet was limited. If you took more, I would take less.
This was equivalent to a huge flood. The top of the mountain was pulled up very slowly, but the water level was rising very quickly.
Slowly, the shorter mountains were flooded by the water. Only the highest mountain remained above the water.
Didn’t that mean that only FV Team’s popularity was left?!
Now that Chrétien was holding this meeting, it was a program. He had to hold it.
He could not possibly be indifferent when the problem was right in front of him, right?
However, how could he solve the problem?
Take down FV Team’s popularity? Don’t let FV Team profit from it?
The popularity of the entire IOI World Competition would be affected. The marketing funds that they had invested previously would be wasted.
Develop a similar viewing function here?
However, the key was that the problem with this function was not in technology, but in whether there was a platform to cooperate.
Based on Chrétien’s understanding of Finger Games, they wanted to come up with the plan during the IOI World Competition, discuss cooperation with the platform, and develop this function…
It was almost impossible.
This function could be completed in half a year, let alone during the international competition.
He could not think of a similar way to completely increase IOI’s popularity, much less similar functions.
Maintain the current state?
Even if they gained some popularity, the popularity would benefit FV Team.
That was unless the other teams won in the end. That would be a more acceptable outcome for Finger Games.
Everyone looked at each other and entered a familiar rhythm once again.
It meant, don’t look at us. What can we do?
Chrétien wanted to say that he could not do anything either!
Everyone looked at each other speechlessly. Jin Yong suggested, “Forget it, let’s call and report it.”
“I can only hope that the other teams can do a little more to win FV Team. Then, everything would be fine.”
Chrétien nodded helplessly. “Alright, that’s the only way.”

November 26th, Monday…
At the special training base of Suffering Travels.
Qiao Liang looked at the rather imposing venue in front of him and suddenly wanted to retreat.
Something was amiss!
Previously, it was one thing to make mental preparations. However, it was another thing to see the indoor rock climbing walls that were several floors tall in the stadium!
Qiao Liang’s mind was filled with question marks.
Who am I?
Where am I?
Why am I here?
I’m going to climb such a tall rock climbing wall?
Am I worthy?
I’m not worthy!
What’s more, this was only indoor training? Was the official Suffering Travels even more difficult than this?
Now, Qiao Liang understood why there were so many deserters. They had so many opportunities to escape before entering the battlefield, but they did not escape. They were killed on the spot when they arrived.
That was because there were some things that could not be done well no matter how well they prepared themselves!
Qiao Liang could not help but think about escaping at the last minute. At the same time, his two legs began to retreat uncontrollably.
“Old Qiao! You’re here too. So early.”
“I can tell that you can’t wait either.”
Qiao Liang turned around to see Ruan Guangjian getting out of the car, grinning.
Similar to Qiao Liang, he did not bring much luggage and only carried a small bag.
According to the rules of Suffering Travels, those who participated in the Suffering Travels would be fine as long as they arrived. They did not have to bring anything. Everything from the clothes they wore, the food they ate, and the equipment they needed for training were provided by Suffering Travels.
Qiao Liang’s lips twitched.
I fu*king can’t wait!
The reason why I came a little earlier than planned was mainly to observe the situation in advance. I had to slip away in time if the situation was not right!
It might be a little unreasonable but his life was more important after all.
At the very most, he would apologize to Boss Pei and his fans, even if it meant losing some money!
Everyone would understand.
“Hehe, go in first. I don’t think I’m mentally prepared.” Qiao Liang could not help but retreat.
Ruan Guangjian was a little surprised. “You’re not mentally prepared? It’s alright, I’m not mentally prepared either.”
“Actually, I’m the same as you. I didn’t want to come at all. Apart from being afraid of ghosts, I’ve been pampered since I was young. I haven’t suffered much. However, I feel that it’s a pity not to come since I’ve already drawn it.”
“Come, let’s support each other and encourage each other to persevere together!”
Ruan Guangjian was about to drag Qiao Liang in.
Qiao Liang’s mouth was twisted in anger.
How dare you mention that you’re afraid of ghosts!
Are you afraid of ghosts?
He was obviously very excited!
It was probably the same this time. He might say that he had not suffered, but in fact, he would probably climb rocks and swim faster than anyone else.
Liar! I won’t believe you anymore!
Qiao Liang was unmoved. His desire to survive made him resist Ruan Guangjian’s pull and continue to work hard to get out.
At that moment, another car stopped at the door. Yao Bo alighted from it.
“Eh, are you here to participate in the Suffering Travels as well? I’m Yao Bo, you are…”
Ruan Guangjian and Qiao Liang paused and briefly introduced themselves.
The three of them felt like friends at first sight.
Yao Bo was very happy. “I’ve long heard of your names. Nice to meet you, nice to meet you! I didn’t expect it to be so coincidental.”
“Sigh, I’ve been living a pampered life since I was young. I haven’t suffered much. I heard that both of you have been trained in Tengda’s Thriller Hostel. I hope that you can help me survive this.”
“Let’s go in then?”
Ruan Guangjian nodded. “Alright, let’s go!”
Both of them dragged Qiao Liang in without any explanation.
Qiao Liang had been quite resistant at first. However, his heart was shaken when he saw Yao Bo. He was pushed in by the two of them.
That was because he had a rough understanding of the people on the list previously. He knew that Yao Bo was a young master of Jinding Corporation. He said that he had led a good life and had not suffered much. This was much more credible than Ruan Guangjian. Qiao Liang still believed him.
Especially when Yao Bo said that he had been trained in Thriller Hostel. Qiao Liang could not bring himself to do it.
He had just been praised, and yet he had disappeared. How could that be?
What’s more, looking at the composition of this team, there were pampered young masters and girls. Qiao Liang thought about it. How embarrassing would it be if he became the only one in this team to escape?!
Thus, his shame temporarily defeated his rationality and was dragged into the hall.
