Chapter 239: Chapter 101: Clearly heaven is helping me complete my mission! But how can there still be someone who can defy destiny even a little?_4

OMG... Is the potential of this industry really that big?

I never realized it before.

"Third place goes to..."

At this point, Chang Detai had already straightened up and adjusted his tie.

The top two were industry behemoths; their influence was so immense that it was unthinkable.

Unshakeable.

Snagging the third place would already be quite an accomplishment.

"Third place is, the film and television industry, which up to now has sold 14.0833 million yuan in the agricultural support initiative," someone said.

As soon as these words were uttered,

everyone in the meeting room were wide-eyed.

Their gazes did not fall on the leaders of the film and television industry.

They were all fixed on Chang Detai’s face.

Their expressions were a mix of astonishment, surprise, and complexity.

Fourteen million in sales in one month was already nearing the threshold of about 700,000 boxes.

To be honest, that number was quite exaggerated.

After all, the agriculture support initiative was just a charity.

Many passersby on Blue Star had the attitude toward charity that, you can have it, but please don’t shove it in my face; it’s annoying.

Therefore, even the film industries, with a revenue ranging into the hundreds of billions in the first half of the year, could only manage to sell a dozen million at best with their agriculture support themes and their big movie star endorsements.

After all, the earnings wouldn’t end up in the celebrities’ pockets, so they naturally wouldn’t invest too much heart into it, maybe just help retweet a post at most.

But the problem now was,

where did you get celebrities from in your gaming industry, damnit...

And the gamer demographic,

in the eyes of the leaders of other industries, were also seen as low-quality consumers, mostly young with no spending power, and even if they had some money, it all went into games.

But the current situation was that,

these supposedly lower-quality gamers,

had managed to support sales volumes that even toppled the film industry big brothers.

This was somewhat baffling.

When Chang Detai heard this ranking,

he too was stunned.

Wait... what did our company do to deserve such aggressive results in this agricultural support initiative?

Did we always have this strong a fighting capacity?

Are we stepping on the film industry and reaching the second position?

Then, very quickly, Tang Shenghua announced the second place,

and it completely cracked the facade of composure the leaders in the meeting room tried to maintain.

"Second place, the live streaming sector, with a sales volume of 23.0749 million yuan for this agriculture support theme!" he declared.

Once these words were spoken,

the previously quiet meeting room exploded!

Every face was filled with shock!

"What?"

"Live streaming is only second?"

"This..."

"Hold on, this..."

Even though they were inhibited by the presence of the leaders, nobody dared to raise their voice.

But whispers broke free, spreading continuously and uncontrollably throughout the formerly silent room.

Even the senior leaders of the live streaming field looked taken aback and confused at this moment.

Who am I? Where am I?

Am I attending an agriculture support meeting right now?

Why aren’t we number one?

Why is the gaming industry first?

How large is the player base?

And how many are there watching live commerce streams?

This isn’t right.

It wasn’t just everyone else.

Chang Detai thought the same thing.

He’d only dared to dream of taking third place before coming here.

And quickly, Tang Shenghua announced the last rank.

Unexpected, yet within reason.

"As of now in this agricultural support initiative, the highest sales rank goes to the game industry’s promotional revenue."

"The total sales have reached 25.6988 million yuan!"

As the words settled, Tang Shenghua set the data aside.

He looked around with a touch of severity in his eyes.

"It seems that you all treated this agriculture support as a mere task to be completed."

"Is it because there were no profits, so everyone was not enthusiastic in mobilizing?"

"The film and television and live streaming industries couldn’t possibly have just this level of sales. Think carefully about how you promoted this agricultural theme."

"Our society is primarily made up of grassroots citizens, without their consumption, who would support our culture and entertainment industries?"

After speaking his piece, many leaders hung their heads in shame.

Because this was not the first time the agriculture support theme had been launched.

It was promoted almost every year or every other year.

But as it was entirely based on charity, with no profits involved,

everyone primarily focused on fulfilling the task set by the higher-ups.

They never considered exceeding the task, maintaining the current ranking and asking for more resources from above.

Why bother with extra effort?

Then Tang Shenghua spoke again, his tone softer, his gaze gentle as he looked towards Chang Detai.

"The only exception was the game industry, which worked wholeheartedly and precisely pinpointed the pain points of agricultural aid, truly achieving demand from buyers and revenue for sellers," he said.

"I also personally checked and found that other industries were basically just promoting the agricultural theme; it was the game industry that first launched themes to aid the elderly, infirm, and disabled farmers."

"These farmers ask for less and are innately more deserving of aid. Thus, the call for their support is louder amongst consumers."

"Chang, your company did a great job with this public welfare project."

With praises from Tang Shenghua, Chang Detai even blushed a bit.

Mainly because he himself had not exerted much effort...

This explosive result had even caught him off guard,

one could even say it was entirely due to the top player’s company which single-handedly caused the viral spread.

Ke Jin, you rascal, you really are a genius!
