Being Reborn And Starting Off By Not Being A Simp-Chapter 535: Fan Economics
Friday, May 15th, 2020.
This was a very ordinary day.
However, it was a rather important day for the company.
On this day, Ye Mo started a live broadcast.
He was going to compete with Wu Ding, an internet celebrity boxer with millions of fans on the Acne Mark Platform.
This was a registered mixed martial arts competition, and all the necessary agreements had been signed.
However, it was not an official competition organized by the sports department. It was a commercial competition organized by a company. The results of the competition would not be recorded in the player’s score.
The company that organized this competition was called " Warrior Culture Communication Company." The owner of this company was Wu Ding’s father. In fact, it was a company established by Wu Ding.
This company was doing commercial development for Wu Ding, the former national boxing champion.
This included some live broadcasts of competitions, commercial sponsorship, and the development of peripheral products.
He also had a considerable income in a year.
Among the popular fighters on the acne marks platform, Wu Ding was one of the ones Ye Mo thought highly of because he was a professional athlete and had won the national mixed martial arts championship. He was a really capable person.
He was much more reliable than those folk martial artists who became famous because of some legendary stories.
Of course, hype was inevitable.
The biggest hype was the consecutive live broadcasts of the foreign boxing champions ’KO matches. There were Japanese, Siamese, and American.
In every match, they would describe their opponents as fierce and fierce during the warm-up. They would talk about how they had never lost a single match, how they had KO ’ed their opponents many times, and how they would often add a nickname that was very literary in the eighties and nineties.
Then, when it came to the competition, every time it was a satisfying KO. It gave the audience a sense of satisfaction as if they were showing off their country’s might. They instantly became the national hero of this platform.
In fact, some of the opponents were professional athletes, while others were amateurs. It was more of a commercial performance than a competition.
Ye Mo had seen the video and could tell that most of the time, it was just a performance. It looked like they were fighting to their heart’s content, but in reality, if they really fought like that, they would be knocked down in minutes.
He was someone who understood the internet.
Through that kind of hype, he had gained a lot of fame on this platform. He couldn’t be said to be number one in the same industry, but he was at least in the top three.
The person who ranked first was a famous martial artist who claimed to be from a famous sect. The hype was too fierce. It was simply following the routine of a movie.
However, many people fell for it. On one hand, they believed that the experts were among the people, but on the other hand, they believed that the experts among the people were going to become internet celebrities.
Choosing to fight against Wu Ding was the greatest respect Ye Mo could give to his previous profession.
On this platform, there were still some professional players who had opened accounts. Although most of them were not very popular, there was no lack of popular boxers who were at the top of the country.
Why didn’t Ye Mo find someone like that?
The reason was simple-they couldn’t beat him.
Those professional players trained professionally every day, but he was now a bodyguard and driver. He had less time to train and was not professional. Most of the time, he did not even have a sparring partner.
He couldn’t compete with those pro players in terms of competitive form.
On another point, he was quite confident in himself, but not to the point of blind confidence. He felt that he still had a lot of room for improvement. As long as he had a professional team to carry out professional training, he would one day rule the arena.
However, he did not think that he was invincible now.
Even if he was at his peak, he was no match for those top boxers. There was no need to humiliate himself.
The company would not allow him to fail.
That would damage his image and affect his future commercial value.
Playing a commercial exhibition match with Wu Ding was already the best solution that the company had found after discussing with him.
In addition to Tianyuan Media, there was also Fierce Warrior Culture who was broadcasting this match live. The best cameras belonged to Fierce Warrior Culture. After all, it was their home ground.
The competition’s title advertisements and ticket sales all belonged to Fierce Warrior Culture.
However, Tianyuan Media had paid 200,000 yuan for the entrance fee, so they had to get something.
All they asked for was a live broadcast.
Two hundred thousand yuan for a non-exclusive live broadcast right, Warrior Culture would definitely not reject it.
Liu Qing didn’t go to watch the live broadcast, and Ye Wanrong didn’t go to support her brother either. They all chose to watch the live broadcast.
However, Tian Yuan Media’s general manager Qin Kun accompanied Ye Mo to the venue. For Ye Mo’s live broadcast, one of the commentators was Qin Kun, and the other was a former mixed martial arts athlete he specially invited.
Along with Ye Mo was a team of coaches from a mixed martial arts club, but they were only temporary and didn’t have a long-term contract.
The official match started at 9:30 pm.
However, Tianyuan Media’s live broadcast began at eight o’clock.
In the last two videos, Ye Mo said the exact time of the competition. He also said that it would be his first live broadcast on May 15th at 8 pm.
Now, Ye Mo had more than a million fans on his acne imprint account. Basically, every Short videos had more than 100,000 likes. It seemed like he had quite a lot of hardcore fans. They were basically female fans who didn’t know much about martial arts.
It couldn’t be helped, she liked Ye Mo’s face.
Such fans were the most loyal and enviable.
