Chapter 233 Wrong Deduction, Right Conclusion
Seeing Hu Xiao’s message, Pei Qian also grew quiet and slightly despondent.
What a question that struck at his soul.
He had not expected Fei Huang Workspace to create such a program.
Pei Qian had previously thought that Fei Huang Workspace would at most do a product review video similar to that of test TV, one that focused on reviewing a product while embedding a few simple scenes in the video. This would fulfill the criteria of a blend between a product review and short videos.
Pei Qian had guessed wrong!
Fei Huang Workspace had used short clips as the main content of the video while severely diluting the product review aspect; it was so weak that some people might not even think that the video was reviewing something at all.
This way, regardless of whether the product was good or not, viewers would not be put off by it.
Even the fake reviewers’ ‘I used this before; this product is very handy, and I strongly recommend it’ had been mistakenly interpreted!
From now on, regardless of how Fei Huang Workspace used this kind of program to do sponsored partnerships, as long as the program’s quality wasn’t that bad; none of its viewers would be repulsed by it. Fei Huang Workspace could then boldly enter into sponsored partnerships!
Of course, there was a drawback.
The range of products that could be entered into sponsored partnerships would be limited. Take the portable washing machine for example. It evidently was an outlier product. If it was a proper cell phone, camera, computer, or other digital products; they would not be able to achieve the intended effect from these videos.
In other words, A Day in a Great Inventor’s Life could only focus on such outlying products; anything normal could not be used!
This limitation generated much difficulty for sponsored partnerships.
Regardless, Huang Sibo seemed to have taken Pei Qian’s words to heart. He had prioritized the quality of production and the reputation of the company.
Pei Qian felt that he was growing a little dizzy.
Although spending a thousand of his own money wasn’t considered a lot; the completely opposite effect generated by this spending was completely unexpected.
Not only did the uniform fake reviews not cause any distaste among fans, but it actually became something that they rallied to and focused much attention on Fei Huang Workspace as well. In fact, no one might even realize that fake reviewers had played a part in the comments section.
This one thousand was spent so stealthily and left so quietly without causing much of an effect. Boss Pei’s money had essentially just evaporated.
Pei Qian looked at Hu Xiao’s soul-striking question and was momentarily speechless.
You still dare to ask me this question? I want to ask you back!
Your fake reviewers are so useless! I want a refund!
However, thinking about this again, Pei Qian had been the one who had asked the fake reviewers to use that one line of text.
Oh, that’s fine then.
On the other hand, Hu Xiao saw that Hardcore Reviews didn’t reply after a long while as he grew even more doubtful. Previously, he had thought that Hardcore Reviews just wanted to purchase fake reviews to strike at its competitor.
From the looks of it now, that didn’t seem to be the case, right?
Fei Huang Workspace and this Hardcore Reviews seemed to be working too well in unison, right?
Why didn’t Hardcore Reviews say specifically that it wanted to buy fake reviews to sully a product, but they had directly requested for such a simple line of text to flood the comments section?
Furthermore, why had Fei Huang Workspace released its video so quickly after Hardcore Reviews had made its request for fake reviews? Fei Huang Workspace had been quiet for more than a full month prior to this!
The release of the video combined with this line of text… hadn’t this created the most perfect publicity effect?
Was all this a coincidence?
Although this wasn’t impossible, the probability was too low!
To complement each other so coincidentally and accurately fanning the video’s popularity
hile creating a bandwagon to jump on… if this was a coincidence and a fluke, Hu Xiao did not believe that.
In that case, the greatest possibility was…
This was all premeditated!
Fei Huang Workspace and this Hardcore Reviews knew each other; they were probably from the same company and had intentionally spent this 1000 yuan to buy fake reviewers to increase the popularity of its video!
Thinking about this now, how long had Fei Huang Workspace not released a video? Its popularity had long decreased.

This new program had only needed a 1000 yuan worth of fake reviewers to generate such a successful wave of attention and popularity.
The planning behind this publicity effort was ingenious!
Connecting this to how an unknown account like Hardcore Reviews had merely smashed cell phones and gained much attention…
The more Hu Xiao thought about this, the more he felt that the UP Master behind Hardcore Reviews was a master. While this person might have maintained a low profile, the end result was evident: this person could light a spark!
In that case, was all this part of a grand plan?
The more Hu Xiao thought about this, the more he felt that something was amiss.
He looked at the message he had sent.
“Brother, who… who on earth are you?”
This message seemed to lack in thought and consideration; it sounded a little offensive and disrespectful!
Pei Qian still hadn’t thought about a suitable reply.
Although he really wanted to ask for a refund, he couldn’t actually place the blame this time on the other party’s fake reviewers.
Pei Qian thought for a while and typed, “This is a misunderstanding. I had not expected…”
While he was typing halfway, Pei Qian realized that Hu Xiao had retracted his message!
Hu Xiao then sent another one: “Brother, your sales tactic is really superb! I am impressed, very impressed.”
Pei Qian, “?”
Boss Pei felt faint again. What was going on? What was the other party saying?
Pei Qian just wanted to reply when ‘ding’, a money transfer notification was received.
A thousand yuan.
Hu Xiao, “Brother, we are all in the same industry. I won’t take your money this time; take it as if I want to be friends with you. In the future—if there is anything I can help with, please let me know. We are brothers; everything can be discussed!”
Pei Qian, “?”
Although he was still very confused. Seeing his 1000 yuan was returned to him, Pei Qian felt happy again.
However, the person behind Shaohu Reviews was indeed someone interesting! If he needed to buy fake reviewers again, Pei Qian could continue looking for Shaohu Reviews.
Pei Qian thought for a moment and replied: “This collaboration had been very satisfactory. I await our next one.”
Hu Xiao hurriedly replied: “Sure thing!”
Hu Xiao was very happy internally. Hardcore Reviews’ UP Master had not said and explained anything. He had just said that the ‘collaboration had been very satisfactory’. This verified his own thinking!
Everything had been planned by Hardcore Reviews!
That also meant that Fei Huang Workspace and Hardcore Reviews were in close contact; they might actually be in one boat. This was a very crucial piece of information.
Hu Xiao couldn’t help but start to connect the dots.
After all, not many people were in the digital products review industry. Although the industry was still growing, it wasn’t growing as fast as expected. Every new unknown entrant to this industry had to be carefully scrutinized. What if they had entered to snatch one’s rice bowl?
Fortunately, from the looks of it, whether it was Fei Huang Workspace or Hardcore Reviews; they didn’t seem to be targeting the same market as Shaohu Reviews.
Hu Xiao couldn’t sleep. He felt as if this industry that he had been comfortably thriving in was about to face some uncertain turbulence.
Pei Qian did not know how much pressure Hu Xiao was under now; he also didn’t know that Hu Xiao had actually come to the right conclusion based on Pei Qian’s wrong deductions.
Boss Pei was thinking about something else.
To make things a little more difficult for Fei Huang Workspace didn’t seem feasible anymore. According to Fei Huang Workspace’s current model, it was unassailable. Of course, this made it hard to enter into sponsored partnerships as well.
Hence, Pei Qian decided to not bother about this for now.
Besides continuing with his Hardcore Reviews program, Pei Qian also had to pay attention to Repent and be Saved.
These two days, Repent and be Saved’s demo would be released. Pei Qian intended to play the game and get a sense of its difficulty before arranging the entrance of his weapon into it. Only if he suffered from now on could he guarantee that when Repent and be Saved started selling, it could compel many players to quit playing it.
“Sigh, this is so tough for me.”
Pei Qian couldn’t help but think. It was really hard being a boss!
