I’ll Add Points To All Things
chapter-923-30041322

According to several media outlets, they have collected a lot of information in the past year, only to find that Facebook is suspected of manipulating the national election for a purpose.

In these reports, the media mentioned that in the early days of the campaign, Draenor and Facebook jointly funded a company called "British Analysis".

He also hired a top data analysis professor from Cambridge University to be the general manager.

After that, "British Analysis" started to collect data portraits with a purpose.

The data analysts in Draenor's team began to accurately locate and analyze the target citizens through the information collected by the "British Analysis". They also used these data as templates to cast relevant campaign to influence the citizens.

The scariest thing was that the that they put up were not fair and just. They had certain tendencies and were even fake.

For example, if a white farm owner was concerned about tax cuts in agriculture, then the would be the promise of tax cuts in agriculture after Draenor took over.

Other than that, if a citizen was concerned about unemployment, he would immediately receive a speech from Draenor saying that immigrants had stolen their jobs, and once he took office, he would tighten immigration policy.

Other than promoting themselves, these would even maliciously smear their competitors.

For example, if Draenor's competitor is a protectionist for black peoples' rights, these ads will give fake news to the black people who support the protectionist, saying that he thinks black people are a threat to the country.

Through this massive influx of false advertising, Draenor has long brainwashed people into thinking that Draenor is the country's savior.

In America, both factions had their own strong states. These states had almost no problems with their votes, so the key to the campaign was how to settle those "swing" states.

Through various data and analysis, the "British Analysis" came to a conclusion: they only needed to get 70,000 votes from three swing states to determine the victory of the election.

So Draenor's campaign has also developed strategies specifically for these swing states and put in nearly six million related ads, which ultimately led to the voters choosing Draenor.

If this was all there was to it, it might not have caused such a commotion.

After all, although there were tricks involved in these actions, they could only be considered as sidelines. Even if one looked deeper, it would not affect Draenor much.

But the media also revealed.

Why did Draenor set up "British Analysis" alone for data collection and data analysis instead of letting his campaign team do it?

That is because their data collection is illegal.

In order to obtain data from these voters, the "British Analysis'' conducted a "psychological test" project and put it on Facebook.

If a user wants to do this "psychological test", they have to provide all relevant data on Facebook, including "forward", "like", "comment", and even "private message", as well as… All the friends on that person's friend list.

What he meant was, your friend agreed to sell the house, but he ended up selling your house as well.

Yet, despite it being such a ridiculous request, Facebook actually agreed.

In order to promote the event, the "British Analysis" induced nearly 300,000 people to participate in the test at a value of 6 USD per test. It also collected information on these people and their friends, totaling to… more than 90 million entries.

That was 2 million USD, and there was a user data portrait of almost 100 million people.

All of this was authorized by Facebook.

After that, through these data, Draenor's campaign began to make user portraits, and they began to project them accurately.

Of course, Facebook also contributed a lot. After all, without their users' promotion, Draenor would not be able to advertise.

Therefore, it could be said that this campaign had become a feast for the internet giants to control public opinion.

At the end of the article, the media cried and asked the public to think for themselves. Were their thoughts and opinions real or were they brainwashed by the internet giants?

The information was detailed, the data was accurate, and the language was infectious. It directly caused a huge uproar.

Following that, the dirty deals between Facebook and Draenor became the hottest topic in the country.

Regardless of whether it was talk shows, news, or newspapers, they were all denouncing and lashing them, thinking that they were the filthiest sinners.

After his inauguration, Draenor's life had been smooth sailing, but now he was in a tight spot. Even Facebook was being scrutinized.

There were even high-level bosses who requested a hearing from the CEO of Facebook, asking him to respond directly to these questions…

...

While America was in an uproar, Su Yang, the perpetrator, quietly returned to the country.

After more than a month of negotiation, Zhao Licheng finally succeeded in negotiating the relevant collaboration details with Bytedance, TikTok's parent company.

Su Yang was now rich and imposing, giving Zhao Licheng two targets.

The bottom line was to take down Tik Tok's international authorization, if possible… Even the entire Bytedance.

When Zhao Licheng went to discuss, there were many rounds of discussions within the company.

As the number one short video platform in the country, TikTok had already achieved results in both its popularity and performance. Therefore, TikTok directly rejected the acquisition invitation from Jiadian Group.

However, when it came to international markets, they were hesitant.

Because of the software in the country, as long as one went out to sea, no one would have any influence or achievements. Therefore, when it came to whether they wanted to go abroad or not, there were many different voices in the company.

Initially, the CEO of his corporation wanted to go out to sea to try, but at this time, Jiadian Group came knocking on his door, wanting to acquire it.

Therefore, their CEO's mind became active.

After all, everyone knew Su Yang's taste. If Su Yang was optimistic about the development of his software, then…

Unfortunately, during the second round of discussion, Zhao Licheng gave up on this idea.

Zhao Licheng said bluntly, "Jiadian Group just doesn't want to waste time and develop a new program. If they don't sell the syllabus, they will create a similar short video platform and put it on the international market first."

Coupled with the global lead in artificial intelligence technology of the Jiadian Group and its worldwide fame,

There was no way to fight TikTok internationally.

This fact also made the CEO realize that he had no other choice, so he sold it without hesitation.

Of course, he knew about sustainable development, so he wanted to control some shares.

However, Zhao Licheng did not give him any other chances apart from giving him 1% of the shares.

After all, a problem that could be solved with money should not be solved with shares. It would be troublesome later on.

As for this 1%, it was just a symbolic gesture to make the words more meaningful.

Therefore, after Su Yang returned to China, the two families signed a contract smoothly and successfully formed a joint company to operate the international version of TikTok.

At the same time, Su Yang had also made the final decision on the international version, naming it "Point", which would mean "Dian"

Su Yang felt that it was similar to TikTok's pronunciation. Furthermore, it was in sync with Jiadian Group.

However, the president of Bytedance wanted to call it "TiTok", but Su Yang felt that it was a long-winded term and did not have a specific meaning, so he rejected it.

The president of Bytedance only had 1% of the shares. Facing a major shareholder like Su Yang, he had no right to speak. He could only smile bitterly and agree to the international name.

Very soon, with the help of the company, the system, procedures, and operations team of Point were formed.

It was not because their post-production service was so good. It was mainly because Zhao Licheng told the truth. "If you don't give it to me, I'll poach someone myself."

Jiadian Group was rich and generous, and they were willing to spend money. Hence, if they began to poach people, Bytedance might not be able to fight against their actions.

Therefore, after thinking about it, the president of Bytedance felt that since he had already given the program, he might as well give them another batch of staff.

'Anyway... this shift is just a diversion. They'll come back again if I wait.'

Unfortunately, the president of Bytedance might not have read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms…

That was the first time Su Yang experienced the advantages and power of a big company.

He was really in a conquering mood at that moment.

Whenever he encountered a project he was interested in, he would buy it directly. When he bought it, he would say, "Either you sell it to me, or I'll crush you flat."

Faced with a company like Jiadian Group, even a big company like Bytedance had no choice but to concede, much less a small and medium-sized company. From this, one could understand the lethality of this negotiation method.

'No wonder Tencent always uses this trick…

'It really works.'

Very quickly, under Su Yang's urging, at the end of March, Point was successfully sold in more than 150 countries and regions.

With the huge distribution channels from Samsung, Jiadian Group could easily promote any product to anywhere in the world.

As soon as Point was released, because of the original content in the country, it exploded.

This was the first time that many people in China had come into contact with a new short video app like Point. They were instantly addicted to it. They either watched it or filmed it. They were having a great time.

One had to admit that the arithmetic of words had its own things. Back then, before Su Yang started his business, there was a period of time when he was addicted to Tik Tok.

Now, once again, he was playing TikTok's mourning.

In the end, it was finally his turn to promote this app around the world.

During the promotion process, Su Yang was surprised to discover that this thing could also bring about influence and currency.

And it was quite a lot!

Su Yang analyzed it in detail. He felt that it would not help people's lives. In fact, it might even affect people's lives because they would end up playing with the app too much.

'So, why would the system decide that it would have a good impact on people's lives?

'Could it be…

'A mental thing?

'After seeing too much TikTok, he started to love this world with long legs and pretty girls even more.

Hmm, that makes sense.

But no matter what, after spending money all over Su Yang's country, and with the release of "The Devilish Boy", his sixth Gold Mission was finally completed.

[Ding! Gold Mission: Road To Zenith (6) completed. Please check the reward.]

Su Yang looked at the number of people influenced that exceeded 100 million on his interface and felt a sense of accomplishment.

This meant that Su Yang had affected 100 million people in the past year!

And it was a positive change to top it all off.

'What a difficult journey this has been!'

While feeling proud of himself, Su Yang opened the system and clicked on the gold banner.

[Ding! Gold Point+1]

'I've obtained my sixth Gold Point!

'I can upgrade the system again!'

With his previous experience, Su Yang looked at the top of the system interface. As expected, after obtaining the Gold Point, there was a translucent [+] symbol on the system interface.

Su Yang did not add any points and returned to the virtual space silently.

After obtaining the Gold Point, Su Yang's biggest worry increased.

The last time Su Yang added points, it had caused a change in the radius of tens of kilometers. Many animals and plants had mutated. Even their bodies seemed to have been strengthened.

This time, if he was right, it would definitely cause more trouble than last time.

'It took me a very long time dealing with the aftermath last time. If I cause a huge ruckus again this time, would there be a huge mess to clean up?'

Su Yang, whose status was no longer the same as he used to be, hesitated.

After thinking about it for a long time, Su Yang felt that he should not choke just because of an obstacle. He could not just not add any more points just because he was afraid that he would get exposed.

However, under the best circumstances, he should still find a deserted place.

'How about…

'Antarctica?'

At that thought, Su Yang's eyes lit up.

'That seems like a good place!

'There's almost no one living there, and the area is vast. As long as I avoid the key areas, I could add a point there without attracting attention.'

At the thought of this, Su Yang started to do the preparatory work of adding points.

Because he knew that every time he added points, it was a baptism for all living things, Su Yang called all the monsters outside, including the large group of Imperial Shark Guards that Janet had recruited into the virtual space.

During that time, he sent out a little monster to carry a glass phone. Then, he boarded a private plane and took a cruise to Antarctica to leave the glass phone there.

Following the connection between the virtual space and the glass phone, Su Yang arrived at Antarctica.

He had directly sent a part of the virtual space here, and he had gathered everyone there as well.

After that, Su Yang did not hesitate anymore. He tapped on the semi-transparent [+] symbol on the system and added the sixth point…
