DiGua is a relatively well-known internet newcomer.
The website experienced a crash due to the popularity of a video, which, though not a huge issue, was considered newsworthy.
The next day, major portal websites carried related stories.
In addition, various discussions on the Haijiao Forum were in full swing, and the video "Xiao Hui: I Speak for Myself" immediately gained attention.
People who weren't originally interested in the matter became curious and searched on Baidu to find out what had happened.
Some people who usually didn't even go online heard about it and also made a point to look it up.
"Mr. Xiao, as you instructed, forums, especially Haijiao Forum, are now buzzing with discussions about the 'I Speak for Myself' promotional video. According to the trend, this video's popularity is unlikely to die down in the next few days."
In a special office set up inside Nanshan Auto, Xiao Hui had gathered five or six people, all of whom were directly following his orders.
These people clearly had specific tasks assigned to them.
"As soon as there's a new hot news item, netizens will quickly forget about our story. We need to constantly create new topics to keep this conversation alive."
Xiao Hui didn't think that simply uploading a video online would guarantee lasting fame.
He chose this method of promotion for both himself, Nanshan Auto, and to promote the glory of domestic products.
The main reason for this was cost considerations, along with inspiration from some businesses in his previous life.
The CEO of a company is naturally the spokesperson for the product.
As mentioned earlier, the most successful example of this was Elon Musk.
His products never needed to spend money on advertisements; they naturally sparked numerous discussions.
Xiao Hui hoped that one day, each model of Nanshan Auto would attract traffic without needing to spend money on advertisements.
To achieve this, he needed to increase his fame constantly.
He wanted to become a celebrity figure, and only by doing so could he achieve this goal.
For this, he had not only filmed several videos, but a series of actions were planned to be released later.
"Okay, then I'll find a way to recruit more people online to stir up discussions on various forums."
Zhu Zhengfeng, upon hearing Xiao Hui's words, felt a headache coming on.
The difficulty of the task was quite high...
But at this moment, he could only grit his teeth and accept the challenge.
Who was Xiao Hui?
Although he was only twenty-two in this life, he had lived two lifetimes.
He immediately noticed Zhu Zhengfeng's reluctance.
"I'll send you some copywriting to your email. You can post these on Haijiao Forum, and gather a group of people to imitate this copy and create something similar."
Since Xiao Hui had chosen this method of promotion, he had made thorough preparations.
Soon, several interesting articles appeared on Haijiao Forum.
"You only heard I castrated myself, but didn't see the years I spent practicing.
You have your prestigious sects, but I have my martial arts manual.
You ridicule me for being neither man nor woman, unworthy of ruling the martial world, but I pity your false morality and hypocrisy.
You may not practice the Sunflower Manual, but I will prove who is truly invincible in the East.
Training is a painful journey, full of doubts, but so what?
Even if humiliated, I will persist in the work!
I am Dongfang Bubai, and I speak for myself!"
When Zhu Zhengfeng saw this, his body trembled.
That feeling was similar to just completing an intense three-minute workout.
The writing was truly remarkable.
The most important thing was that it was perfectly aligned with the lines from the video "Xiao Hui: I Speak for Myself."
Anyone who had watched the video would immediately connect these lines to the video.
Inadvertently, this would further boost the discussion around the video.
As someone familiar with the internet, Zhu Zhengfeng understood the deeper meaning behind Xiao Hui's approach.
Soon, this passage became the new hot topic on Haijiao Forum.
And even more netizens followed suit, creating similar versions of the passage.
"You only see my weight, but not the effort I put in.
You have your muscles, but I have my belly.
You laugh at my legs not being thin enough, or my arms not strong enough to deserve to eat or drink.
I pity you for lacking the joy of weight loss, you can look down on our bodies, but we will prove whose era this is.
Losing weight is a painful journey, filled with setbacks and body changes, but so what?
Even if I faint from hunger, I'll make sure to faint stylishly.
I'm fat, and I speak for myself!"
"You only see my single status, but not the effort I put in.
You have your standards, but I have my gentleness.
You laugh at me for not being beautiful enough, unworthy of love.
I pity you for always being so shallow, you can look down on my true goodness, but I will prove whose era this is.
Being in love is a painful journey, full of failures and loneliness.
But so what? Even if I stay single, I will stay single in style.
I'm single, and I speak for myself!"
Various versions of "I Speak for Myself" flooded all the forums within a day.
In QQ groups, people were constantly spamming.
Many people's QQ statuses or signatures were updated with these phrases.
All these updates were related to the video "Xiao Hui: I Speak for Myself" or its various spinoffs.
Zhu Zhengfeng even organized a group of people to push this matter behind the scenes.
As a result, the video "Xiao Hui: I Speak for Myself" continued to gain popularity.
On Baidu's search trends, "I Speak for Myself" and "Xiao Hui" became the most searched terms.
Several upcoming movies were even delayed in their announcements because of this.
The influence of this video was immense.
Unquestionably, this had become a phenomenon.
"Mr. Xiao, the video's popularity has completely surged. What should we do next?"
Zhu Zhengfeng was now completely convinced by Xiao Hui.
Earlier, he had thought too highly of himself, but now realized he had been defeated in the most professional field, so he quickly adjusted his mindset.
"We can post some news on Haijiao Forum, whether it's about the glory of domestic products or Nanshan Auto.
We can release any relevant information to keep the heat up for this topic."
Xiao Hui was definitely not just looking for fame.
In the end, he hoped to use fame to boost the recognition of domestic products and Nanshan Auto.
"No problem. The video shooting team is still working on more promotional videos for our domestic products. I'll post some of those too."
"The promotional videos shouldn't be too conventional. I'll send you a copy, and you arrange for people to shoot photos and videos according to that direction. Then, we'll post them online."
Xiao Hui quickly envisioned various car commercials in his mind.
However, he wasn't thinking about filming high-quality, traditional advertisements at this moment.
Instead, he planned to film a series of funny and quirky videos about domestic products and scenes, and then release them online for hype.
This unique style would definitely attract new attention to domestic products.
Then, in a couple of days, he would release another video.
This would ensure that he, domestic products, and Nanshan Auto would make another appearance on trending topics.
By that time, it would be time for domestic products to hit the market.
