Blackstone Code

Recently, there are two very hot topics in Bupen and even the entire federation.

The first topic is "Lynch and his TV station", and the second is "Lynch and his millionaire makers".

If there were more perfect electronic network communications in this era, the whole world might be captured by these two messages.

But it's not bad now. People are discussing it. First of all, they are discussing whether Lynch can succeed.

"He always succeeds, he never seems to fail, no matter what he does!"

"He is like the illegitimate son of God. Even the goddess of fate, who is the harshest to mankind, still needs to lift her skirts and show him a flattering smile."

What people care about is whether what Lynch does this time can be as successful as before.

Some people think that Lynch will not continue to be successful this time, because he has once again crossed over from an entire industry he is familiar with and entered an industry he has never been exposed to.

It can be said that movies have a lot to do with capital, but TV stations...

Sorry, the power of capital may have value, but it is no longer the core element.

This is not like a movie, where capitalists can spend money to hire the best directors, the best actors, buy the best scripts, and then spend money to reproduce all the scenes needed in the movie!

As long as they have money, capitalists can make classic movies!

But TV stations are different. Some people may think that they are the same, TV stations and movies, but in fact people who really understand these know that they are different.

The movie has a show time, and if your opponent is too strong, you can choose to postpone or advance the show to avoid face-to-face conflict.

TV stations and TV productions don't have these. All ace programs will never "take a break". As long as there are no drastic fluctuations in ratings, they will always exist!

When you try to join in, it means that you will be competing against the most successful TV station in the Federation and the most successful program in their hands!

Here, there is no retreat!

There have been more than one capitalist with some kind of dream who set foot in this industry, and then... bumped into the wall of the city wall and was smashed to pieces!

This is not a place where you can have fun with money. If you want to create a successful program, there is really too much information that needs to be integrated. So much so that the birth of a top program is often a coincidence, or the result of many people The result of joint efforts!

Only having money is really not enough!

In fact, from the first issue of "Pioneer", the media industry has maintained a very high degree of vigilance towards Lynch's Blackstone Capital.

A TV station is not just a platform for broadcasting information, but also a media for the whole society.

Politicians, celebrities, and capitalists will appear on TV when they need it. All financial groups and political groups have their own media companies.

This also destined that most media companies have an antagonistic relationship.

Because of political stances, conflicts between the capital groups behind them, or other reasons.

People don't want to see Lynch's Blackstone TV succeed, but they can't destroy it.

It's impossible for them to smash up the TV station that was being renovated, it's impossible to burn the equipment, it's impossible... There are many things they can't do, so they have to put more pressure on the TV station.

Under tremendous pressure, once they don't get it right, it will take them a long, long time to get it right again.

Driven by these caring people, some people began to speculate whether Lynch could continue to succeed this time.

Some people have always been superstitious that Lynch can succeed. He always succeeds, and this time is the same. This is enough.

But some people think he should fail once. He always succeeds, so he should fail this time!

They thought so too last time.

The second topic is related to the program Lynch revealed, "The Rich Maker". There are even several other TV programs that talk about this program.

One host questioned the authenticity of this program, or he was emphasizing the unanswerable question of "how rich is a rich man?"

For a person without income, maybe three to five thousand is a sum of money that can be called "wealth" in their eyes.

But for a middle-class person, three to five thousand may only be their most basic household expenses for a year, such as water, electricity, fuel, etc., not including the costs of various other value-added and paid services.

Therefore, the host believes that everyone does not need to have high hopes for this program. It is just a word game.

Some people even speculated whether the person who was selected and became a "rich man" would be an actor or a TV station staff member.

This kind of thing is also very likely to happen.

As for society, Blackstone TV has been steadily promoting the establishment of TV stations, signal access to the network, home access, and more service content.

Some of the things rumored outside seemed to have no impact on them!

The only thing that made people feel that they were participating was the questionnaires. This investigation was entrusted to the top three most famous consulting agencies in Bupen.

They are conducting a large-scale investigation involving millions of people across the federation!

This move has also been included in the federal world record list. This is the first such large-scale questionnaire survey in the history of the federation!

You know, every survey costs money!

A questionnaire, a pen, and a small gift cost about three yuan. Including workers' wages and fees to the consulting company, the cost is about three yuan and fifteen cents. When the base is increased to another level, the labor expenses will increase. will come down.

This once again proves the view that humans are expendable!

All in all, for one million copies of the test papers, Lynch had to pay about four million in fees. This is absolutely unprecedented, but it will also produce an equally unprecedented survey of people's perceptions of "rich men."

It will be more accurate than ever!

On March 22, an ordinary young man named "Harry" came to the studio of Blackstone TV. He was lucky enough to be selected as a contestant in the first phase.

He lives on the edge of Bupen, where poverty, gangs, violence, crime... these things have always troubled him and his family.

When he answered the answer sheet on the street some time ago, one of the questions was "If you had the opportunity to choose to change your destiny, would you do it?" He chose yes at that time.

And this became the key to his coming!

He put on his brother's clothes, which were clean, neat, and a bit long. They were the only clothes he could wear in his family.

The others have either turned white after washing, or are damaged and patched, but this one looks very intact and clean.

He was a little reserved, and no one from his family came with him.

His brother and his father worked in the factory, and the capitalists did not allow them to take leave.

His mother and his sister worked at home to help support the family and did some simple handicrafts.

No one can accompany him but himself!

He came to the lobby with a document that could prove his identity and was then taken into a waiting room.

Under the guidance of a staff member, he timidly sat in front of the mirror and began to put on makeup.

"I will cover up some pimples on your face, and your eyebrows need to be trimmed. Everything else is fine. Do you have any ideas?"

The makeup artist was a bit...uncomfortable, he was a man but he acted like a woman.

Harry shook his head, "That's all you said."

For the first time in his life, he finished his makeup while being served by someone else. Looking at himself in the mirror, he became more handsome, and there was a special brilliance in his eyes.

"It's very handsome. You can go over there and they will tell you the next process."

Harry stood up after thanking him, and then entered another room. There were already some people here. For some reason, when he saw these people, Harry felt hostility in their eyes.

He found a corner where no one was and stood there, and then the staff explained the next program to him.

He didn't hear very clearly, but the young man's thinking speed allowed him to understand roughly. Finally, he also asked a question, "When you called me, you told me that no matter whether I can make it to the end or not, there will be..."

"Yes, fifty yuan, whether you can go to the back or not." The staff couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry about that. Rather than paying fifty yuan, you should think more about how to behave in the show." It’s better!”

Not only were they in the room, but there was a guy who looked like he was a successful person, but he was sitting here with other people, which meant he wasn't necessarily successful.

He raised his hand, "Is there a script or anything like that, like when should I say something, or what should I answer when the host asks me?"

The staff smiled and said, "No, there is no such thing. We are not that kind of fake show. Everything is real and effective."

…

Time passed in a dull manner. I don't know if it was ten minutes or half an hour later. The door on the other side opened. Under the guidance of the staff, they entered the hall.

At this time, the place is already full of viewers. These are passers-by attracted by the "small gifts". As long as they complete the program, they will receive a gift prepared by the TV station for them: a voucher for a fast food restaurant next to the TV station!

All the cameras started to operate. There were fifteen stations on the cool stage, with the host standing in the middle.

Everyone found their place. The moment the spotlight was turned on, four "explosions" suddenly sounded in the studio hall.

Immediately afterwards, ten thousand one-dollar banknotes swirled down while the contestants and the spectators in the auditorium were stunned!

The host's microphone starts working

"Dreams come true, the future is in my hands..."

"Welcome to the show, Rich Maker!"
