Chapter 142 Want to get rice from spinach? In prison! (Part ) ( words)

"...Well, that group of people actually found you? Really, can't you even do a basic investigation?" Pei Yunteng listened to Luo Ji's report on the other end of the phone with a smile on his face.

Luo Ji listened to his relaxed tone and felt relieved that he didn't seem to be under any pressure.

"I feel that the other party's strategy should be to cast a wide net and try to catch whatever is available."

"That's true. After our investigation, we found that Ruijing Sports has indeed spent a lot of money on publicity this time." Pei Yunteng nodded.

Luo Ji has a direct line to Pei Yunteng.

The abilities of this talented young man and the powerful academic community behind him are enough for Pei Yunteng to treat him seriously as a business partner.

Of course, it would be better if we could dig it directly.

"Don't worry, we already have a preliminary solution for this matter. We won't let those gamblers do whatever they want." Pei Yunteng's calmness gave Luo Ji peace of mind.

Come to think of it, this guy has been fighting in the business world for many years and has encountered many powerful enemies, but I have never seen him really suffer a defeat.

Luo Ji hung up the phone with relief.

But what he didn't know was that on the other side, after hanging up the phone, the nonchalant smile on Pei Yunteng's face suddenly disappeared.

Instead there was a kind of expressionless tension.

People who are familiar with Pei Yunteng know that once this guy shows such an expression, it can only mean one thing:

Pei Yunteng got serious.

Others had limited knowledge about these gambling platforms from Europe, but Pei Yunteng did not.

He knew very well how terrifying the other party's power was.

In Pei Yunteng’s previous life, there was a period of time when almost all e-sports marketing accounts would play a few seconds of introduction before releasing their videos.

The object of promotion is a gambling platform similar to "Rui Jingji".

He has legal credentials in Europe and has even invested in several CS and WA teams.

It can be said that in the field of e-sports alone, he is already an all-powerful person.

Because their publicity was extremely low-key, there were basically no flaws except for the "bet" in the name.

So much so that while the vast majority of viewers are impressed by saturation marketing, almost no one has any doubts about their ingredients.

This is not the most terrible.

What’s scary is that as an agent that was arrested and the platform that was cleared out once, there is not even a single negative review on any major platform.

All I can say is, the energy is terrifying.

Pei Yunteng is well aware of the consequences of competitive sports being eroded by gambling.

Manipulating the players is a fake match.

Manipulating the referee is a black whistle.

In the past, the betting platforms were even so rampant that there would be people dedicated to controlling the outcomes of some big anchors’ ranking matches.

A certain fat boy who is currently staying in an Internet cafe to train his mentality has been tortured severely.

In the past, why LPL was suppressed by LCK has always been a controversial topic.

Some say it started too late, others say it is over-commercialized.

But one thing is almost universally acknowledged: gambling and match-fixing have almost completely destroyed the LPL's secondary league system.

Every time there is a severe crackdown, dozens of players get into trouble, including some who have even left their mark in the LPL.

When the teammates, coaches, opponents, and managers around a talented teenager all use the game as a means to make money, the path to promotion and relegation is completely closed.

So can he still maintain his ambition?

The prevalence of gambling has almost crushed the LPL's new generation talent pool, so that there are fewer and fewer newcomers who can soar to the top in the entire region.

Strong teams always have that group of old players constantly making arrangements.

And this is just the tip of the iceberg.

As the operator, Pei Yunteng will never tolerate the rampant dominance of gambling.

He’s not some Adam joke.

However, the opponent he has to face this time is a real thorn in the tarsal bone.

This will be a long, difficult and protracted battle.

"Yuanfang." Pei Yunteng called Zhang Yuanfang first.

Since Feng Xianjun took over the affairs of Tencent Esports, Zhang Yuanfang's management scope has shifted to the operations of Xianyu Live and Xianyu Short Video.

"Yes." When he heard Pei Yunteng calling his name instead of Lao Zhang, he knew that the big one was coming.

"The people called Xianyu strictly investigate e-sports related anchors and marketing accounts. If they see any suspected promotion of gambling platforms headed by Ruijing, they will be warned once and banned twice."

"It is imperative to nip the public opinion offensive of the spinach platform in the bud."

"If there are some famous people, they should be killed to scare the monkeys."

Due to their inherent sensitivity, gambling platform advertisements generally choose to place some low-innovation marketing accounts.

Most of the top bloggers, such as Luo Ji, have a relatively keen sense of avoiding suspicion.

If you don't have this much common sense, I'm sorry.

After hanging up the phone with Zhang Yuanfang, Pei Yunteng thought for a while and summoned the system that had been in a state of disrepair for a while.

"Oh, you finally remembered me, didn't you..." The system still looked like a nagging woman.

The system can no longer remember when it last appeared.

However, it would be unfair to say that the system has done nothing during this period of time.

A large part of the technology of LOL's anti-cheating and anti-scripting systems comes from system support.

As a result, even after more than half a year since the launch of League of Legends, not even one plug-in manufacturer has developed a plug-in that can run stably.

If Su Muqiu had been born ten years later and encountered League of Legends, he would have been unemployed and ended up on the streets.

In addition, the fact that Teamfight Tactics was able to be released in a relatively stable version so quickly is also due to the large amount of data provided by the system.

Now, the gambling platform has begun to invade, and it is time for Pei Yunteng to ask the system for food.

Pei Yunteng was also subconsciously startled when he saw the resentful look on the system, and quickly smiled and said, "Isn't this a trivial matter that is not worthy of the noble system to take action?"

"I handled those minor fights myself. Only a worthy opponent like this would require you to lead the army in person, right?"

In the past, he could be more casual about the system.

But after enjoying the system's technical support, Pei Yunteng became shamelessly addicted to it.

Who would want to go through the trouble of planning step by step when you can just run over it without thinking?
The system ignored Pei Yunteng's half-hearted flattery: "Tell me what you want."

Although it sounded resentful, the system knew that Pei Yunteng was the most reliable host it had ever met.

Being able to complete most of the work without relying on it, such a golden thigh is hard to find even with a lantern.

Just win without doing anything.

Speaking of business, Pei Yunteng quickly became serious: "I need an anti-actor monitoring system."

"Whether it's a competition or a regular game, all players' gameplay should be monitored in real time."

“Once deliberate actor intent is detected, it must be handled accurately and without error.”

Given Tenghai’s current ecological position, it is definitely not Pei Yunteng’s turn to make decisions on anti-gambling and anti-spam matters.

All he could do was to ensure that his home was clean while leaving those spinach dogs no room to maneuver. After assigning the system a task, Pei Yunteng thought for a while, and finally took out his cell phone and dialed another number.

Blindly sticking to one's ways has never been Pei Yunteng's style.

What he wanted was to ruthlessly break the claws that some people stretched out!

"Hello? Hello, Mr. Zhang. I am Pei Yunteng from Tenghai Company. I have something I want to discuss with you..."

……

With Pei Yunteng's "Full Power Pei" efficiency, a huge net targeting the spinach industry began to be woven bit by bit.

During this period, some insignificant small shrimps are about to suffer.

"Thirty thousand? Sorry, I think you don't respect the traffic and data of my account!"

"If this is your company's attitude, I don't think there is any need for us to continue discussing this!"

Yuan Hai rejected the other party's offer in an arrogant tone and hung up the phone.

It's not that he is really that arrogant, but he really has the confidence.

And the source is the account in his hands.

There is a saying that goes, if you stand in the right place, even a pig can fly.

And he, Yuan Hai, is the pig that takes off.

Ever since Xianyu Live went online, Yuan Hai has keenly sensed the business opportunity.

After brushing up on his editing skills, he created a short video account and began editing funny or highlight moments from live broadcasts by major anchors such as Ye Xiu and Zhang Jiale.

Since the live streaming industry had just emerged, he was one of the earliest marketing accounts to do this. He quickly accumulated a group of fans and had considerable traffic.

Although these fans basically come for the big anchors whose videos he edits, it does not prevent Yuan Hai from making money happily.

Since the launch of the LPL league, another trend has emerged.

Seeing those big anchors who were paid for a living coming back to the professional arena, Yuan Hai decisively chose to transform.

He changed the name of his account to “The Most E-Sports Moments” and began to focus on editing highlight scenes of the LPL league.

Due to the experience accumulated from previous experience in taking advantage of the popularity of various live broadcast rooms, Yuan Hai ingeniously chose to edit together clips of the major Xianyu anchors commenting on the same scene.

This editing style made his videos unique among a lot of marketing accounts and quickly stood out.

Since Tencent Holdings and Tencent Esports needed the short videos produced by these marketing accounts to expand the audience of the league, they did not crack down on or suppress them.

In this way, Yuan Hai's life became more comfortable.

As the number of business orders increases, he no longer cares about some small orders.

For example, the one just mentioned is obviously a big peripheral brand, but the price is only 30,000.

What about sending beggars away?

While feeling disgusted with the other party's stinginess, Yuan Hai subconsciously thought of the dog owner again.

That's really generous. The first order is a six-digit order, and the beginning is not even one.

And the requirements are very low. No advertising slogans or introductions are required. The only requirement is to insert a three-second advertisement at the beginning.

The content of the advertisement was just a recitation of Party A’s brand name.

Yuan Hai had never seen such a hassle-free and labor-saving business order in his life.

It would be great if all parties could do this.

Thinking of this, Yuan Hai opened his Xianyu account.

Watching his data rising every day is the happiest moment for Yuan Hai during this period.

But today, what greeted him was not those lovely numbers, but a bolt from the blue.

“This account has been banned!”

"How is this possible? My account was blocked? That son of a bitch reported me?" Yuan Hai fell from heaven to hell in an instant, and his head was spinning.

Although he had made a lot of money and became inflated during this period, Yuan Hai still retained his rationality.

He knew very well that he was ultimately just a marketing account.

There is no so-called irreplaceability of one's own content, and the ability to gather fans depends entirely on the audience's habits.

Once your account is gone, your ecological niche will soon be completely divided up by countless greedy peers.

But...why?

I haven't done anything against the law, have I?
Can I get banned for editing a match?
Yuan Hai shook his head vigorously, and his eyes suddenly turned red and bloodshot.

He found Xianyu’s customer service and dialed the number carefully.

"Hello, Xianyu Short Video Customer Service, is there anything you need to consult?"

In front of the official who holds the power over his life and death, Yuan Hai no longer has the arrogance he had before, and becomes as obedient as a quail.

"I am the operator of the account 'Esports Moment' and I found that my account has been banned."

"I checked myself and found that I didn't do anything illegal. Can I ask why my account was banned?"

Yuan Hai said cautiously.

The other party was silent for a while, and then replied in a standard business voice:
"Yes, sir. According to the data we retrieved, your account was suspected of promoting an online gambling platform that violated national laws and regulations, and the traffic was large, causing a relatively bad impact."

“Therefore, your account will be banned as a penalty.”

"Spinning platform? When have I ever come into contact with that kind of thing?" Yuan Hai was dumbfounded.

He never thought that he would fail for such a miraculous reason.

"You took over the business order from Ruijingjie, didn't you?" The customer service's reply was to the point.

Speaking of Swiss Sports, Yuan Hai's brain, which had almost stopped working under the heavy blows, finally began to react.

Rui Sports...isn’t it the generous Party A?

"He never said he was from Spinach!" Yuan Hai said with a sad face.

"The other party's advertisement contains its English name, which contains the word 'bet', which almost clearly indicates that it is an online gambling platform."

Every word the customer service said seemed to be mocking Yuan Hai's English level, which was only at the level of junior high school graduate.

It's over, all over. Yuan Hai trembled violently, and then collapsed to the ground with powerlessness.

I thought I had found a big bargain with that simple six-figure advertisement, but I didn't expect it to be my last meal.

The shortest ban period for Xianyu short videos is seven days.

It’s just a marketing account, but after being banned for seven days, its body is already cold.

But at this moment, the customer service representative actually comforted Yuan Hai in a very humane way: "Sir, there is no need for you to be too sad."

What does that mean? Is there still a chance that I can be released early?
Yuan Hai's spirits lifted, as if he had grasped the last straw.

But he obviously misunderstood the customer service:
"According to our data, your account should be more than one that has been banned due to advertising on platforms such as Ruijing Sports..."

　The second update of 4,000 words is here. That’s all for today.

　　I will go over the outline again tomorrow and try to write better content in the future.

　　Stay tuned.
