Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 1007 All-in-One Security

During this period, besides worrying about TT's troubles overseas, Chen Mo not only didn't stay idle in China, but became even busier.

The third phase of the "Sword-wielding Project" has been successfully completed in China.

After the Spring Festival, a number of companies under the Beyond Group with market value of over 100 billion yuan, including ByteDance, ride-hailing services, Ele.me, and Gaode Maps, began to conduct "downtime maintenance" in batches and at irregular intervals in the early morning.

Outsiders only saw it as a system upgrade, unaware that behind it was a silent rehearsal—every "maintenance" was an evolution of the Zhijian system.

The truly crucial step lies in establishing a presence in overseas operations.

Taking advantage of TT being used as a prime example and pushed to the forefront, Xu Chaojun quickly organized a highly skilled technical team, including many cybersecurity experts who had experienced numerous cyber attack and defense battles, and went overseas with the technical team.

With a proven and mature solution in China, the "Sword-wielding Project" can be promoted overseas with twice the result with half the effort, and it is expected to be fully connected in the first half of the year.

Chen Mo knew that technology was only one battlefield, and public opinion was an even more crucial stronghold that could not be lost.

Chen Tong's side has also begun to prepare a series of reports. Although the official media is difficult to shake, other commercial media often "disregard personal relationships and prioritize money."

After in-depth research into the operational logic of overseas public opinion, the team concluded that if the "saturation attack" tactics used domestically were transplanted there, the other side would be completely overwhelmed and would be no match for them.

In fact, there were three batches of this "airdrop operation" to the other side, and the Sword-wielding plan was the first batch.

The second batch was a special training team prepared for Zhou Shouzi, and they arrived first by chartered plane.

Following closely behind was a larger group of public relations experts.

After landing, the group quickly split into smaller groups of three, collected equipment and materials at a manor in the suburbs, and then went to various places.

Their mission was clear and daunting: to wage a lobbying and public relations war that could be the largest in the history of world business.

They will connect with state officials to use rigorous data and logic to demonstrate the jobs TT creates, the number of employees, and the corresponding tax contributions in their respective regions, getting straight to the heart of the issue.

Make these people understand that if someone in higher-ups just says a word and TT is shut down, the resulting losses and instability will cause them great harm, and they will have to pay the price themselves.

If reasoning fails, a financial offensive will also become an option.

It is worth mentioning that all the funds for this operation came from a fraction of the profits he had made from "speculating" in the other party's capital market in the past—using your money to run your scheme, Chen Mo felt there was no more appropriate return gift than this.

Today's Beyond Company is no longer the novice it once was. It has demonstrated the confidence of a world-class giant: technology, talent, and capital—it has everything it needs.

Shouzi Chew, a Singaporean whose family had previously moved to Beijing and now resides in the United States, was appointed to take charge of TT, temporarily leaving his long-held high position in asset management.

In Chen Mo's eyes, he was like a highly capable and loyal foreign marshal who was sent to the front line to quell a foreign rebellion, which was commendable.

Therefore, Chen Mo's remarks about logistical support at the previous meeting were not empty words, but rather a genuine all-in support effort.

This action was meant to tell Zhou Shouzi that if he was willing to serve with the heart of a martyr, he would repay him with the loyalty of a national hero!
Chen Mo understood that confidence at the negotiating table always stemmed from strength behind the scenes; the essence of the game was who was less afraid of losing, and who was more likely to win. It was like two cowboys facing off with guns in a Western film.

He was prepared for a fight to the death. If Mr. Dong also believed that he would rather suffer economic and social turmoil than let the other side die, then Chen Mo would abandon the North American market and had Tianji Pavilion start drafting a global strategy to expand into the Americas as one of the alternative plans.

However, Chen Mo was betting that Mr. Dong's gun was unloaded!
A few days later, Chen Mo received a song from Chen Tong. When he heard the incredibly familiar opening melody, a strange expression appeared on his face. He was all too familiar with this song; it was practically a memory etched into his DNA, and it had been a "secret code" among countless elementary school students.

It's unbelievable that it would be "reborn" under such circumstances; one can only say that fate has its own plan.

It must be said that the lyrics and music of this song are quite fitting for the occasion. "~~~Who says only those standing in the light are heroes?"

Chen Mo unconsciously hummed along, and even as calm as he was, he could feel a surge of passion in his chest.

Once it's pushed across the entire internet, this won't just be a song, it'll be a battle anthem!

He immediately dialed Chen Tong's number: "The lyrics and music are very good. They have a spirit of not giving up and fighting against fate."

When Chen Mo heard from Chen Tong about how lyricist Tang Tian was recovering from an illness and how she infused her lyrics with her indomitable spirit of defiance against fate, he was filled with even greater respect.

"If she doesn't have a company, we'll sign her. If she gets signed by another company, we'll buy that company. If she wants to start her own studio and wants freedom, we'll provide as much help as possible to leave a good impression on both of us. The same goes for the composer, Qian Lei."

"I'll arrange it right away."

"I'll arrange it right away." Chen Tong originally thought the song was just right for the occasion, but she didn't expect Chen Mo to take it so seriously, even going so far as to "spend a fortune to buy his bones".

He instantly realized that these two songwriters held considerable weight in the boss's eyes.

After hanging up with Chen Tong, he immediately sent the song to Lu Qi, saying, "Make this the new theme song for 'Glory World' and incorporate it into the upcoming new season of the game and the new anime series."

"clear."

Since TT was singled out, its entertainment business, one of its core businesses, has begun to take initiative, with the game and animation of "Glory World" proactively shifting to the theme of 'fate and struggle'.

The new version was originally scheduled to be released soon, but because Zhou Shouzi was singled out for "interrogation", Chen Mo decided to postpone the release of the new season to the 1st of next month.

The other side rarely misses a deadline; if it does, there's bound to be a major development.

Coupled with TT's overseas setbacks, the delay of "Glory World," the world's highest-grossing game, has sparked discussion and speculation among players worldwide.

That evening, Chen Tong sent a message: Tang Tian and Qian Lei had agreed to establish their own studios with the assistance of Bi'an and join Bi'an Pictures' music creation center.

The advantage of this is that personal studios are usually sole proprietorships or small business entities registered to handle personal business, legal, financial and tax matters. Their core functions are flexibility, independence, and service to their personal creative career.

All these trivial matters were handled by the assistance of the other side in setting up the studio. They allowed him to freely choose his collaborators through personal studios or direct cooperation, maximizing his talent and obtaining direct income and royalties from his works.

What the other side is after is nothing more than priority in cooperation—they don't lack money, they lack works that can touch people's hearts.

At this time, the music studio of Beyond Pictures had gathered a group of outstanding musicians such as A-Kun, Li Ronghao, Dai Quan, Wang Feng, and Wu Qingfeng. And this was just one link in Beyond's huge cultural and entertainment industrial system.

A day later, Xu Chaojun came to report: "Boss, Wutong Academy is all ready, and the start date is up to you."

Chen Mo glanced at the calendar, his gaze settling on a particular page: "March 29th".

"March 29th? The day of the hearing?"

"Yes. After the ceremony, we watched the live broadcast of the hearing together—this is the first lesson I prepared for the new students of Wutong."

This wasn't a spur-of-the-moment idea from Chen Mo; rather, he wanted to get these business owners out of their shells and make them look up and see who their real enemies really were.

Fighting amongst themselves every day isn't a real skill; being able to beat foreigners into a frenzy, that's what makes a true leader.

In this first battle, the other side will take the initiative!
