Chapter 285: Man Tian's PR Crisis

Since the first episode was aired, "Gundam Seed" has been fermenting rapidly. Let's not talk about how much influence it has had in the Chinese mainland, but the ratings in the Far East region have actually surpassed "The Strongest Mobile Suit".

After broadcasting a few episodes, the Gundam setting, which is several years ahead of other comics, has attracted a lot of attention. Although Mantendo has repeatedly suppressed it, more and more people have begun to criticize Mantendo.

"He Xi's Gundam settings are unprecedentedly detailed. Regardless of body details or combat methods, including armor and various weapon settings, there is a unique system. In the face of the rich information of "Gundam Seed", "The Strongest Mobile Suit" It can only be said to be a children's animation with the fur of a mobile suit—why does Mantiantang say that Gundam copied Mobile Suit?"

"Why is He Xi's animation so good-looking? I hope Mantiantang can stand up and explain one thing. Is the orthodox battle of mobile suits a deception or a hype?"

"Mr. Matsubara, the 'Father of Mobile Suit', has refused to be interviewed since the broadcast of "Gundam Seed". The timing is too coincidental. Are they on vacation or are they avoiding reporters?"

On Mantiantang's official forum, readers' questioning comments can be seen everywhere, and outside Mantangtang's headquarters, there are often media guarding the door to ask questions.

Mantiantang did not accept any interviews and did not give any explanations. After being blocked by reporters, the employees did not know what to ask. This obvious escape behavior gradually aroused people's anger.

"**, we must have been cheated!"

"Teacher He Xi's settings are much more detailed than Mantiantang's. Mantangang even took the initiative to sue them in Ninghai. They can do such despicable things, and they are shameless!"

"I'm bah. Who is this? It's a waste of my trust in Mantiantang. So, their previous reports about Teacher He Xi were all fabricated out of thin air?"

Things are getting bigger and bigger.

Akira Suzuki didn't take it seriously at first, he felt that it would be fine if the rumors passed, and at worst he would no longer make animations of the Gundam series. How outraged the readers.

before that. Readers in the Far East are very supportive of Mantiantang, thinking that it is a local conscientious enterprise. When Mantiantang sued Phoenix Company and He Xi, many readers even signed their names to win the lawsuit.

The readers are very simple, they believe that Gundam is the creation of several veteran cartoonists in the Far East, and they feel that their actions are just.

Phoenix Company and He Xi did not explain to the outside world,

This makes many readers think they are escaping even more. But when "Gundam Seed" came out, it was like a slap in the face. Seriously wrapped in the faces of these readers.

burning pain...

"We worked so hard to help Mantiantang, but it turned out to be a liar and refused to apologize to us after the incident was exposed!"

Readers were hurt, and the ones who believed in Man Heaven wholeheartedly were hurt the most, and they were devastated and found themselves being used. Turning from embarrassment into anger, he vented his anger on Man Tiantang.

Within a few weeks, the sales volume of manga comics began to drop sharply. Not only did readers from all over the world not stop, but because Mantang did not explain for a long time. Emotions spread.

Some began sending abusive letters to Man Tendo, and more radical readers bought Man Ten Tendo's magazine. A burnt video was shot and uploaded online...

All over the world, suddenly encountered an unprecedented public relations crisis.

In this era of advanced information, the emergence of a public relations crisis only needs an opportunity, and Mantiantang is only a company that has only been established for half a year, and it has not won the complete trust of readers.

Like Phoenix Company and Zhongxia Company, both have accumulated reputation for several years, and there are many ways to deal with crises. But for Mantiantang, a nascent company, if this crisis is not handled properly, the entire company may fall into a quagmire.

But by the time Akira Suzuki discovered the danger, it was already too late...

"How could this happen? It's only been a few days...how could there be such a big fuss!"

Akira Suzuki was in a hurry, and he still held a small hope in his heart. If the success of "Gundam Seed" is weak, it is not impossible for Man Tiantang to continue lying.

But now, not to mention the fact that the successor is weak and there is no shadow, even the readers are having a hard time dealing with it.

"The press conference will be held immediately... No, there is an interview on the show tonight, right?"

Akira Suzuki asked the secretary that he wanted to take some actions to stabilize the readers' emotions.

"Yes, it was scheduled half a month ago. Tonight there will be an interview program of "The Strongest Mobile Suit"...President, you are..."

The secretary was a little strange, he didn't think Akira Suzuki would apologize.

Man Tiantang has come to this point and there is no way to retreat. If they apologize publicly, it will confirm other people's ideas, let alone regain their strength. The reputation of the entire company will collapse, so it is better to maintain the current situation...

"I'll go over tonight for the TV interview in person... Also, you can find Mr. Songyuan and the others for me, and ask them to recite the matter..."

Akira Suzuki explained the plan in detail in the secretary's ear. After he finished speaking, the secretary was a little embarrassed, then nodded and said: "I know how to do it, President, I will do it well!"

Mantian couldn't admit that they made mistakes, so Akira Suzuki had only one way to do now - throw the blame on those "fathers of mobile suits".

As long as those cartoonists admit that they lied and deceived Man Tang, and that Man Tang is an innocent victim, the readers' anger will be diverted, and Man Tang can escape safely.

But it is difficult to achieve this. Cartoonists value reputation. If there is a problem with character, it will be difficult for this cartoonist to get up again, so the "Father of Mobile Suit" will definitely not be willing to take the blame.

But it's okay...

In the evening, on the way to TV Tokyo, Akira Suzuki received a call from his secretary: "President, the teachers have all agreed...you can throw everything at them tonight."

"how much did you spend?"

Akira Suzuki felt a little distressed. The method he asked his secretary to use was coercion and temptation. The first choice was money, but if they asked for too high a price, it would be very uneconomical.

"A total of 20 million yuan, 5 million yuan for each of the four teachers. Mr. Matsushita disagreed. He said that the income in a lifetime should not exceed 5 million yuan, so..."

The secretary replied in a low voice on the phone: "I sent someone to send his son to the hospital, and Mr. Matsushita agreed on his knees without spending a penny."

Threats and violence are also an option, and shopping malls are like battlefields, and Akira Suzuki is satisfied with the results.

"Well done, you get them to make up excuses, and then you hold a press conference, and you get them to apologize to society."

Hanging up the phone, Suzuki Akira breathed a sigh of relief, this time there is no problem, not to mention the readers, even He Xi has no excuse for wanting to trouble them.

Mantiantian will also be the largest comic company in the Far East.

"I lost this time, but what a pity... As long as Mantiantang is still in the extreme east, your comics will never sell well!"

Suzuki Akira gritted his teeth and thought, animation is not good, he still has manga.

At this time, in an office of TV Tokyo, Meng Huo received a warm welcome.

"Welcome, Teacher He Xi, thank you for coming over!"

Sasaki, the director of TV Tokyo, showed an excited look at Meng Huo. TV Tokyo in this world is just a regional TV station, which is not as powerful as in his previous life.

Although He Xi is just a cartoonist, he is a fast-rising cartoonist whose influence is comparable to that of an idol superstar, and his potential is enough for Sasaki to welcome him personally.

Of course... even if there is no such reason, it is the dream of many TV stations to invite He Xi - He Xi has never appeared in the media since his debut, and he is famously difficult to invite.

"Teacher He Xi must have a good impression of our TV station."

Sasaki thought eagerly in his heart that they just sent out the invitation by the way this time, but He Xi agreed without saying a word. Doesn't this unprecedented action mean that He Xi values ​​TV TOKYO very much?

"Why is this old guy so excited..."

But seeing Sasaki's flushed face, Meng Huo got goosebumps, thinking he had met a gay guy.

He didn't have any particular reason for coming to the TV station this time. It's just that the one-year trip made him understand that the media is a necessary tool for him to move forward with all his strength—that's why he decided to reopen He Xi Celebration.

This time, Meng Huo will stand on the stage.
