Chapter 313: Entering The Field Of Entertainment

What lies were they embracing? This was the lie that a very large number of people in Merica chose to believe without even thinking: The lie that all the advanced technologies of Z country were stolen from Merica. This lie had been repeated for a thousand times, 10,000 times, by the politicians of Merica and their media. This lie appeared in every corner of the country. Not only did the majority of Merican citizens believe this lie, but even the creators of such lies believed them on a subconscious level. Hence, they then subconsciously continued to spread such lies.
“But what they don’t know is that lies are always lies! Even if it is repeated a thousand times, 10,000 times, it is still a lie! It cannot become a so-called ‘truth.’ It is very easy to expose this kind of lie. We’ll simply let the people of Merica experience the products of Xing Hai Technologies. The people of Merica will discover that Xing Hai Technologies’ products have powerful functions, that they are irreplaceable and bring about endless convenience. But there is no Merican company that has launched similar products. When scientists in Merica find out that their country has missed out on a golden opportunity and are starting to fall behind because of the arrogance and stupidity of the politicians, I believe that they will then voice their rationality and clarity, criticizing the lies that are poisoning the future of Merica. This will allow the M country to wake up from their dream of ridiculous self-importance. Actually, this kind of mentality from Merica country is very normal. Our country experienced it too. At that time, our rulers thought that Z country was a ‘celestial empire lacking for nothing.’ They regarded science and technology as ‘strange and dirty tricks.’ They closed themselves off from the world and lived in their own happy little bubble. They chose to isolate the country. In the end, they quickly became a joke when they were faced with the colonists’ unyielding ship and powerful cannons. The impact quickly caused them to go into a state of extreme inferiority. For the next 200 years, this led to the subservient spirit of Z people, which still persists in some today. It’s hard to stand up tall again. This is the consequence of indulging in lies! Now Merica has also sunk into a self-numbing state. Well, we’ll congratulate them; they should stay in this state of arrogance for a while more! The longer they remain arrogant, the longer they will be stuck in an inferior state in the future, maybe even double the time! Seeing the huge gap between us, I think that even some Mericans couldn’t help but feel inferior and subservient. As for those who are still repeating lies like good little robots, they will get the retribution that they deserve. They will be completely crammed into the trash can like a pile of ugly garbage. The more arrogant they are now, the worse they will fall. They will only feel a greater sense of frustration and disappointment.”
Therefore, their lies could not hurt Xing Hai Technologies. Ultimately they would only be hurting their own interests and self-esteem. Chen Jin would not be afraid of such accusations and attacks. “Old Ling, if this is the case, then make a declaration: If Merica does not revoke the sanctions against Xing Hai Technologies, we cannot commence a working partnership with Merica. Unless the sanctions are revoked! Only then is it possible for the two sides to collaborate.” To be honest, the country that currently had the highest level of scientific research and the best quality of scientists on earth should still be Merica. The majority of the world’s top scientific research talents were working in Merica.
Chen Jin was rather covetous of these talents. As a result, due to the opposition by the Congress of Merica, his plan to absorb top talents could be described as a “partial failure.” But Chen Jin was not in a hurry! “100% Science Lab” was a game that was accelerating the development of the earth’s technology at a speed ten times faster as compared to previous years. If the Merican congress delayed for a day, other countries would have made 10 days worth of progress. If the Merican congress delayed for a year, other countries would have made 10 years worth of progress. If they insisted on being so stubborn; let’s see who gives in first!
Moreover, the level of science and technology on Haierfa was more than 200 years ahead. The scientists on earth were still in the “remedial” stage. Currently, there was not much use for them. So it was not urgent. Chen Jin was not in a hurry at all. In fact, he was eager for the Merican Congress to waste two more years until they felt that something was wrong.
“Hmm, I understand, President Chen.” Ling Jundong nodded.
...
In Mid-February, shortly after the release of the foreign edition of “100% Science Lab,” Xing Hai Technologies made another major move. They announced their entry into the entertainment sector. With a capital injection of 3 billion, they established a subsidiary company called “Xing Hai Entertainment.”
The entertainment businesses that this subsidiary company planned to get into included novels, advertisements, movies, animation, music, and so on. For the novel category, he intended to create a “Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform.” Its main feature was to collect a variety of science fiction, preferably hard-core science fiction! Long, medium, or short-form works, all would be accepted. As long as one’s sci-fi novel was exciting, one would be able to submit his stories to “Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform.”
Xing Hai Entertainment’s film, animation, and music departments would be mainly serving the Xing Hai sci-fi novels. All the sci-fi works that became popular on the platform and had great potential would have the chance to be made into a film or animation! It could be adapted into a movie, web drama, animation, etc. The creator of the story would gain huge amounts of attention and a lot of money. This was undoubtedly a great temptation for the majority of authors; it would attract them to join “Xing Hai Sci-fi Novel Platform” and publish their own works. They would also work hard to create excellent science fiction works and strive for their works to be made into movies and animations. They would then achieve both fame and fortune. After all, with the technological prowess of Xing Hai Technologies, it was impossible for their stories to be made into bad films and thus destroying it in the process. Only classic after classic would be created.
Out of the trust for Xing Hai Technologies, he believed that many talented sci-fi authors would be willing to join this platform under “Xing Hai Entertainment.” The sci-fi literary culture of Z country would be cultivated thusly. The number of sci-fi enthusiasts would increase; the number of people who were inclined towards the sciences and delve into science would increase. These factors would eventually turn Z country into a sci-fi power. Chen Jin could also benefit from it. One aspect of it was economic; on the other hand, the process could also collect a lot of talents, and open up new ways of thinking for Nuwa and Alice... Sometimes the advancement of technology required a major shift in thinking, and some really good talents could even represent a glimmer of hope in their darkest hour.
As for the advertising department of Xing Hai Entertainment, this department had already been created long ago. They made hundreds of advertisements promoting Xing Hai Technologies’ products. Some of the advertisements had content that was funny, some were extremely interesting. Some had magnificent scenes and beautifully detailed graphics. Nearly all were classics.
“The second outstanding film and television company after Hua Yao Film and Television.” This was the evaluation given by the majority of netizens for Xing Hai Technologies’ advertisements. Now Chen Jin transferred the company’s advertising department into “Xing Hai Entertainment,” which was to allow the advertising department to continue to represent Xing Hai Technologies’ unacknowledged side business and produce more good advertisements.
After Chen Jin got his staff to release the news that “Xing Hai Entertainment Company” was about to be established, suddenly a huge commotion was created in the entertainment circle. Netizens exclaimed in surprise and clapped their hands.
“The entertainment circle is done for. Now that the strongest whale in history has entered the scene, the little goldfish are trembling!”
“Xing Hai Technologies should have entered the field long ago! I am fed up with the domestically produced shitty movies that are flooding the market!”
“The above comment is too harsh. There are many bad films, but there have also been a lot of good domestic movies made in the past few years. I can only say that it’s a mixed bag. It’s the same in foreign countries.”
“It is a good thing that Xing Hai Technologies is entering the field. The quantity of excellent film and television works will definitely increase. Personally, I look forward to it.”
“Welcome to Xing Hai Technologies for entering the entertainment field. I only have one requirement: I don’t want young hunks! I don’t watch any movies with young hunks! No exception!”
“To the above comment, +1”
In addition, shortly after the news was published, Chen Jin received several calls on his mobile phone.
