Chapter 972: Godly Assistance By Vinci Media

Meng Chang immediately took out his cell phone impatiently and checked the public opinion online after returning to his residence.

Whether or not he could hide it would depend on tonight.

A large number of netizens left comments on the forums once Tengda Games released the news through its official identity. Many people reposted it on various forums.

“Huh? So the new game that Tengda is developing… is a fitness game?”

“What the heck! I was happy for nothing. I thought it was some big production.”

“What the hell is a fitness game?”

“I’ve been looking forward to it for nothing. How disappointing!”

“Eh, does everyone find it boring? There’s no need to come to a conclusion now. Fitness games sound quite novel. Tengda Games has always had the power to turn something rotten into something magical. I think we can still look forward to it!”

“Sigh, it’s not that I don’t trust Boss Pei. The main thing is that not many people like this type of game. At the end of the day, fitness games are also for fitness services. It’s very difficult to be especially fun.”

“The key is that Tengda Games has been holding back for more than half a year. I was still looking forward to a masterpiece like Repent and be Saved. In the end, it produced a very perfunctory fitness game? That’s unacceptable!”

“Why is Boss Pei doing something like this? Is it because he’s too busy with other industries?”

Meng Chang flipped through many netizens’ comments and finally smiled.

Yes, he succeeded!

Everyone’s attention had obviously been diverted.

Previously, many people had been guessing what type of game the new game would be. Some people had even guessed the RTS theme. However, the official statement had the effect of ‘making the final decision’.

Some people raised the question of “the two pictures don’t look like it”, after all, neither Mission and Choice nor Fitness had been released yet. Who knew what the images inside looked like?

Moreover, most players did not expect the official platform to be so shameless as to spread the news to mislead everyone. They had been led astray by Meng Chang.

Meng Chang heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was safe!

A huge crisis had appeared at first. Fortunately, he had managed to turn the situation around and return to the right track!

That way, he should be able to continue hiding the game until it was released. Even if he could not get a full commission, it should not be a problem to get seventy to eighty percent.

However, Meng Chang received a few new replies just as he relaxed.

“Something’s not right! Everyone, look at this Weibo post!”

There was a screenshot in the comments. It was the official account of Vinci Media. The content of the Weibo post was: “Hollywood’s sci-fi giant, Greyhound starring on the May 1st prime-time slot!”

“Two hundred million US dollars, famous directors, superstars, and many real ships!”

There were also various promotional pictures of ‘Greyhound’ on Weibo, which were presented in nine sections.

This Weibo post was nothing much. It was just normal publicity.

However, there was a problem with the first post under the post.

“I heard that a local sci-fi film was so scared that it changed its schedule on the spot? (Dog Head) (Dog Head) (Dog Head) (Dog Head) (Dog Head).”

Most of the hot comments below were filled with anticipation for the movie. The comment that was first in the Like seemed out of place but was hard to ignore.

Soon, there were hundreds of replies.

“So scared that they changed their schedule? Does anyone know which movie it is?”

“Changing the schedule might be normal but I still want to laugh. Hahahaha…”

“An insider revealed that it might be Tengda’s movie!”

“Huh? Really? Tengda has released a new movie? What’s its name?”

“Bullsh*t! Would Tengda film change its schedule because it’s afraid of foreign blockbusters? There must be a limit to how much it can scam!”

“That’s right. Tomorrow is Beautiful has a good reputation at the box office. That’s only the first movie of Fei Huang Workspace. The second movie would summarize the experience. It would definitely be a better movie! I believe that other companies are afraid of Hollywood blockbusters, not Tengda. Don’t disgust me!”

The comment section became extremely noisy in no time.

Obviously, this was the work of the fake reviewers. They would upload the likes of this comment and then start a war in it. Wouldn’t the popularity come if everyone scolded each other?

What’s more, this account was an account that was disguised as a passerby. It could cut ties with the official account of Vinci Media. It would not attract trouble even if there were any problems.

A large number of fake reviewers secretly released the relevant information bit by bit while everyone was arguing.

“Don’t doubt it. You’ll know once you check it out. ‘Mission and Choice’ is Tengda’s new movie. It was originally scheduled for the May 1st slot, but it will be released urgently during this weekend.”

“They’re obviously a coward. Why would they give up on the May 1st prime-time slot and take the initiative to go to the rubbish slot for the weekend otherwise?”

“I think this is a wise move. They must know in their heart that they can’t win even if they are in the May 1st slot. They might as well increase the grade and get more box office.”

“I found it! It’s actually true. Tengda made a new movie without anyone noticing? Why didn’t I see any publicity? They are very far behind even on the ticketing software. I didn’t notice it before!”

“What’s more, Lu Zhiyao is the main lead! Eh, why is he the only one on the main cast list? Did they make a mistake?”

“I saw it before but I was disgusted by the name. I didn’t even click on it. I didn’t expect it to be from Tengda?”

Vinci Media’s fake reviewers fanned the flames slightly and the popularity rose.

Many people did not believe it at first, but upon closer inspection, they realized that it was true!

Tengda had really produced a movie called ‘Mission and Choice’. It had indeed gone from the May 1st Grade to this weekend. The high praise and hot comments were all true!

However, many Tengda fans could not accept it.

Fei Huang Workspace, which produced Tomorrow is Beautiful, was already famous. Greyhound might be a Hollywood blockbuster, but it did not seem to be the best.

Could such an enemy make Fei Huang Workspace admit defeat and change its schedule to avoid it?

That was illogical!

Tengda’s fans, who had been mocked and ridiculed by the fake reviewers, were all furious. They looked for evidence unwillingly as they argued online.

It was definitely not because they were afraid that Tengda would not compete, but it just did not fit Tengda’s style at all!

Finally, someone exposed the truth.

“Everyone, take a look at the title and story outline of this movie. Isn’t this the ‘Mission and Choice’ the one that was named national shame? It’s all about the Zergs’ invasion plot. Why do I find it more and more similar?”

“Eh, that’s right. I thought it was a coincidence. On closer look, the name is exactly the same?”

“A remake? Or did they buy the copyright?”

“Are you crazy! Even if they bought the copyright, you would definitely be making a game. Why did they turn it into a movie?”

“Hmm… have you considered a situation where they might have made both a game and made a movie?”

“Huh?”

“Do you still remember the picture in the official exclusive interview? Previously, many people guessed that it might be a RTS game. There are two reasons. First, that picture is from the God perspective. Second, Tengda rarely repeats games. They have not done RTS games before. After a comprehensive analysis, the possibility of it being a RTS game is actually very high!”

“That’s not right. Didn’t the official platform say that the new game is ‘Fitness Battle’?”

“However, the official platform did not make it clear! Tengda is a marketing genius. What’s so strange about playing the players? If they really wanted to publicize the movie, wouldn’t it be even more strange if we don’t see any publicity material even though it was about to be released?”

“Indeed, the more I look at the game graphics on these two pictures, the more I feel that they are completely different!”

“That’s right. How could Tengda develop a fitness game for more than half a year with its efficiency?”

“Could it be that… the big one is coming?!”

“Could Tengda’s new game really be Mission and Choice? Don’t mess with me!”

The gamers were indeed possessed by Sherlock Holmes. They immediately swarmed forward once they found a breakthrough point!

Initially, Meng Chang’s official post had already led the gamers astray for the time being. However, Vinci Media’s Weibo post had led the flames of war to the movie ‘Mission and Choice’. Therefore, the gamers’ attention that had finally been diverted returned. What’s more, it became even more intense. They were even more certain that this game was an RTS game!

Meng Chang’s expression froze and his mind went blank.

To him, this was not the scariest thing.

The scariest thing was that from the information on the internet, Mission and Choice’s movie was scheduled for April 14th, which was this weekend!

What would that imply?

Meng Chang might not know the specific plot of Mission and Choice, but he knew that the game and movie were conjoined twins. If the movie was going to be released, the game would definitely be released on the same day.

Otherwise, if the plot was thoroughly discussed after the movie was released and gamers were exposed, how could they play the game?

The release date of the game had to be brought forward.

“That’s not right. Why didn’t anyone tell me about such a huge matter?”

“I always thought that the movie would only be released on May 1st!”

“What a scam!”

“In that case, the game…”

Meng Chang did not dare to think further.

He had pulled a long face and asked Boss Pei for another ten million yuan. He had even done a lot of dirty work, but it had all been for nothing?

Wait a minute, he didn’t work for nothing. He even exposed ‘Fitness Battle’…

“Crazy!”

“What’s the point of changing to the May 1st slot!”

“The release of the movie on the 14th and the release of the game. How can I possibly get a huge commission! It’s impossible not to be discovered!”

It was not that Meng Chang had let his guard down. The key was that no one had told him about this. Moreover, it was impossible for Meng Chang to think that a movie that had such a huge investment would not go for the May 1st slot but would instead go for the trash slot on a weekend.

This was completely unreasonable!

Meng Chang’s mentality completely collapsed. He could still pray that the sales would not be good after the game was released but he would not get much commission even if that happened.

The most important thing was that he did not even know that the timing had been changed. It was like he was fighting with the air.

If he had known earlier, he would not have struggled! He would have just laid flat!

Meng Chang slumped on the sofa as though he had lost his soul.

Finished. Everything was finished!

He was played by Boss Pei again!
