Chapter 1600: It’s Not Enough To Kill You, But Also Kill Me Mentally?
Yu Fei checked the hot searches on Weibo and other forums. Indeed, once this thesis was released, the popularity that Zheng Hao had worked so hard to stir up immediately dissipated. He also became a clown.
On one hand, all of Zheng Hao’s doubts about Boss Pei were torn apart by this thesis.
On the other hand, netizens were focused on this thesis and did not care about what Zheng Hao said at all.
The former was very easy to understand. Just as Cui Geng had said, Boss Pei’s thesis could not be doubted, could not be verified, and could not even be doubted if it was written on behalf of Boss Pei.
This thesis was not only recognized by professional professors, but also understood by ordinary people. Coupled with Tengda Corporation’s artistic products, it could be said to be irrefutable, completely proving Boss Pei’s true level.
All of Zheng Hao’s doubts were naturally not reliable.
There was also a reasonable explanation for the fact that Boss Pei had pa.s.sed all the subjects.
Previously, everyone had thought that Boss Pei was too busy with work and did not have time to revise properly. It was good enough to pa.s.s. This statement might be reasonable but it was still too pa.s.sive.
From the looks of it now, it was not that Boss Pei did not study hard. Instead, he learned things that were useful to him. He did not deliberately pursue the final score.
Simply put, other students scored 60 points or 80 points, but only 20% of them could be used to continue researching. Perhaps only 10% could be used in reality and affect this world.
Boss Pei might have only scored 60 points but everything within 60 points would change the world.
This nature was completely different.
What’s more, most people were not interested in Zheng Hao’s debate in person.
That was because Zheng Hao and Boss Pei were both entrepreneurs. To entrepreneurs, they should compete on who could run the company well and create more value for society. They would obtain reputation from the ma.s.ses.
Debating in person is nothing more than a verbal exchange. You are entrepreneurs, not debaters. What’s the point of debating?
There were too many things to discuss in this thesis.
Many people took out Tengda’s previous games and movies and revised them.
There were also people who used this standard to compare the current art works in the market, be it novels, movies, or games. Then, they found that almost all of the good works that could fit all the characteristics were popular.
There were also many people who further pointed it out and began to seriously discuss the direction of future popular artistic works in the online age. They even derived it to other fields.
There were still some indignant haters who raised doubts, questioning that Boss Pei’s thesis was in the field of artistic creation, at most in novels, movies, and games. However, there was still no explanation in other business fields, right?
This doubt was quickly drowned by the mocking laughter.
That was Boss Pei’s undergraduate thesis. It was only so long. Even the current content was tight. How could he write other content?
What’s more, just because Boss Pei did not write it did not mean that he did not understand it!
Boss Pei had already proven himself in the most abstract and complicated field of artistic creation. What’s more, in other fields, it was completely impossible to prove himself.
总之这篇论文一出,完全扭转了网上的风向.
Previously, many people had doubted him. They felt that Zheng Hao had publicly jumped out to criticize Boss Pei, but Boss Pei had hidden his face and did not reply. That was a sign of guilt.
However, from the looks of it now, Zheng Hao was not Boss Pei’s opponent at all. It was normal for Boss Pei to ignore him.
Boss Pei was a well-deserving genius!
From the time he started Tengda until he completed his studies, he had built such a huge business empire in a short four years.
Everything that happened in the past four years had verified this view countless times. This thesis was only an explanation of Boss Pei’s cheating career.
…
At the same time, Pei Qian was slumped on the sofa in his living room, looking up at the sky and thinking about life.
He had read all the discussions on Weibo, but the more he read, the more ridiculous it seemed.
“What’s going on?”
“Why are these people praising him so unreasonable?”
“I can’t take it anymore… I feel like every pore on my body is oozing milk…”
Pei Qian had mixed feelings.
It was just like a child who bet on the questions before the exam and scored high marks because he hit the bull’s eye. That caused the exam results to be much higher than usual and was publicly praised by the teacher.
He felt guilty!
Strictly speaking, Pei Qian was definitely not cheating because he was writing about Tengda Corporation. He was a.n.a.lyzing his thoughts and the root of the problem was on him.
However, this was not his true standard. That was because he had not deliberately thought in this direction when he was creating those games and movie scripts.
At most, he had a flash of inspiration.
Thus, Pei Qian felt very uncertain about this outstanding graduation thesis.
He did not expect Zhang Wei and Prof Kong to submit the last sentence without changing a single word. Pei Qian was so embarra.s.sed that he wanted to dig out a room for three rooms and one living room with his toes.
What was even more ridiculous was that the discussions about this thesis online had obviously been raised by several levels.
There were many praises that Pei Qian had not expected. He also felt guilty for accepting them.
Pei Qian knew his true standard very well. A large part of his achievements was due to luck, not the hard work he had put in. Thus, he did not want everyone to add these honor to him.
The reason why Pei Qian avoided showing his face as much as possible and kept a low profile was because he knew that he might be far from the Boss Pei that people were looking forward to.
In the end, the more he hid, the more people praised him. Four years had pa.s.sed, and he finally could not hold it in anymore.
“I think I should clarify.”
“If I say nothing, it would be equivalent to tacitly agreeing to these praises. I will only fall harder in the future.”
“Say a few simple words and express your personal opinion. It can also be considered as a warning to everyone.”
Pei Qian did not want everyone to think that he was’ pretending to be an expert ‘. He instinctively wanted to appear and reduce the popularity seeing that he was forced to show off and that the situation was a little out of control.
Thus, after careful consideration, he decided on a long Weibo post.
“I noticed many discussions about my graduation thesis online. Some of them were indeed what I was thinking, but some of them were obviously overthought and exaggerated.”
“The article was natural and was obtained by chance. As a creator, most of the time, when he was creating some content, he did not have very clear ideas. He only had a flash of inspiration.”
“Therefore, I am actually guilty of accepting everyone’s praise for me.”
“I hope that everyone can tell the truth. There’s no need to praise me too much. Don’t pin too much unrealistic expectations on me.”
“On top of that, I don’t intend to deliberately ignore the question that Mr. Zheng Hao asked me. I just think there’s no need to argue on this matter.”
“However, since we have already posted on Weibo, we will answer Mr. Zheng Hao’s questions at the same time.”
“Mr Zheng Hao thinks that I’m not an outstanding graduate. I have limitations in my ability, and I’m not an outstanding entrepreneur. I completely agree on this. I never thought that I was an outstanding graduate and entrepreneur.”
“Mr Zheng Hao is far better than me in terms of academics and entrepreneurs.h.i.+p.”
“As for why I repeatedly won in business compet.i.tions, I’m very confused about this.”
“However, I think one of the possible reasons is that I can distinguish right from wrong precisely because I’m not smart enough or outstanding enough. After becoming a boss and becoming a key person who can mobilize a lot of resources through companies, I can still clearly distinguish right from wrong. I did not affect my eyes and brain because of the difference in positioning.”
“Thank you all for your support and love. I will work harder to improve and strive to become someone worthy of these praises one day.”
After writing it, Pei Qian deliberated for a while and felt that his overall att.i.tude was quite sincere.
The key was that he could not say many things very clearly. He could not possibly directly dig out all his old secrets, right? That would not be clarifying, but taking the initiative to die.
Netizens were all his own people. It was easy to negotiate. As long as he showed his att.i.tude to them, this popularity should slowly go down.
Of course, he could not use his own Weibo to post Boss Pei’s long weibo post. Otherwise, it would be exposed.
He had to use Tengda Corporation’s official Weibo to post it.
…
At the same time, in the headquarters of Shengyun Corporation in Shanghai.
Nie Yunsheng browsed the webpage and leaned back in his chair weakly. He closed his eyes and sighed silently.
“Sigh!”
“I knew that Zheng Hao would not have a good ending.”
“In the field of public opinion war, Boss Pei would always be able to find a way to counterattack no matter what angle he attacks from. What’s more, it would be impossible to guard against everything.”
Nie Yunsheng did not expect Boss Pei to easily defeat Zheng Hao’s angry final attack with just a thesis.
On top of that, this thesis caused widespread discussion online.
He easily made it onto Weibo’s hot searches based on a thesis and natural traffic. He also did a comprehensive publicity and promotion of Tengda’s other industries, saving a lot of publicity and marketing funds.
This kind of strength was not something ordinary entrepreneurs could compare to.
It was as if Boss Pei had never pursued popularity, but popularity followed closely behind.
At that moment, Nie Yunsheng swiped to a new Weibo post.
It was Boss Pei’s response to this incident through Tengda Corporation’s official Weibo.
Nie Yunsheng read the entire long Weibo post from beginning to end with a complicated mood and fell silent again.
After a long time, he sighed softly and said emotionally, “Do you even have to kill me ?”
