When he got up in the morning, Li Xiaole got up and leaned comfortably on the pillow. Looking out the window, he began to think about the future situation of the Pirate Station. If Lei Ting saw that he seemed dazed and his agile eyes were spinning around, he would definitely guess, "This kid is preparing to dig a hole and jump for someone to jump."

Now that "The Walking Dead" has just aired one episode, the three major TV networks are still treating Pirate TV as a strategic pawn, and do not treat Pirate TV as a competitor, so all three are still trying their best to win Pirate TV into their camp to restrict the other two parties. However, once "The Walking Dead" continues to rise, its influence reaches a certain level and shows the potential to compete with them, the situation will completely change.

Currently, the wireless TV field in North America is controlled by five major TV networks, CBS, NBC, NBC, ABC, Fox, and Columbia Warner TV Network. They are another carrier of the six major Hollywood companies. Over the past few decades, although countless emerging companies have challenged their authority, they have all failed without exception and eventually acquired them. Therefore, the five major TV networks have grown to this point today.

This is not simply because the companies that compete with them are not strong, but mainly because these five major media have strong comprehensive strengths such as legal, public relations, media mobilization institutions, etc.

In the cruel market competition, even if competitors gain a temporary advantage, these five major TV networks will use various unexpected means to suppress their opponents. Emerging companies often cannot withstand their offensives from other aspects, and the result can only surrender to them and fall under one of them.

Later, the powerful media groups saw this situation clearly and knew that if they wanted to succeed, they had to avoid the hegemonic field of wireless TV and focus on the field of cable TV. For example, those with strong backgrounds were all in the way of cable TV stations and gained a foothold.

Li Xiaole's initial motive for acquiring TV station was to establish his own media channels, so he acquired a wireless TV station like Pirates, a subsidiary of Sony Columbia. But if Pirates showed that it could really threaten Sony's strength, then he could have predicted what kind of public opinion frame he would encounter.

Of course, Li Xiaole has to fight back? But with his weak strength in the United States now, how can he deal with it? Just relying on the mobile Internet and online media that are not yet mature in iPhones? No matter how naive Li Xiaole is, he doesn't think he is just using the Internet to fight against mainstream traditional media.

It is obviously unrealistic to confront the opponent head-on, and it is undoubtedly a hit with an egg. Li Xiaole is very clear that he can only come to the underworld, set a trap and let the opponent jump in... and then launch a fatal blow.

Now think about it first, what methods are most likely to use to attack themselves?

The so-called public opinion persecution is nothing more than two routines. The most common one is to slander and slander through film critics and related media, and to sarcasm and sarcasm against "The Walking Dead". The purpose is to make the audience who don't understand themselves and have never watched "The Walking Dead" and establish a first impression: "Li Xiaole is a bad director, and "The Walking Dead" is simply a bad film."

Especially if he has scandals on emotional or private issues, the other party will exaggerate even more. Paramount used this trick to slander Tom Cruise before.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaole quickly sorted out his experience in Korea, China, and the United States in his mind. He was surprised to find that... he was still quite upright and did nothing worthy of sarcastic...

In addition, I am originally Chinese, and my cultural foundation is different from that of the United States. It is probably not easy to use private behavior to make ordinary people hate me. After all, we are from a backward "barbaric authoritarian country". The American people don't have much expectations for themselves... There is no huge contrast between Tom Cruise's national idol to religious perversion.

It seems that the first routine is not very lethal, so it depends on the second trick...

In comparison, the second routine is even more vicious. To put it bluntly, it is to use legal action against target institutions and target figures and completely destroy competitors with the power of justice. This is something that giant companies in all fields in the United States are extremely good at. The most famous example is "Michael Jackson's fiction scandal."

Back then, the pop king was suddenly accused of sexual assault by a 12-year-old boy after trying to acquire Sony. Although the boy's family came out to clarify that it was false and apologized, the image of Michael Jackson was a devastating blow at that time, and his career fell into a trough since then.

There are also all the legal issues such as illegitimate children, rape cases, drug use, and infringement, such as all the matters involving legal issues. As long as the competitors have ever been suspected, they will be suddenly revealed. Many celebrities and competitors themselves do not know about Chen Zhimao and are suddenly accused...

Will an ordinary person have the ability to sue a celebrity or media organization? This is almost impossible in the United States, because once there is a quarrel, celebrities and institutions will immediately use various means to reconcile out of court, and they will not be able to make any waves.

Most of the things that can be caused by media groups are manipulated by them to attack competitors.

This vicious routine is absolutely devastating to anyone's reputation, because just like Michael Jackson was accused of sexually assaulting a minor, although this matter does not exist at all, as long as the media giants incite and instill the dark side of the parties into the public, even if the lawsuit is finally won, the image of the parties will be destroyed. Therefore, no matter what the result of the lawsuit is, the parties will lose from the beginning, which is unpredictable.

Thinking of this, Li Xiaole was almost completely sure that Sony and Fox would use this trick to deal with him. If it were ordinary people, they would probably have raised their hands and surrendered in despair at this time. However, Li Xiaole is not a good-for-nothing person. He has cheated countless people himself. He is very familiar with these tricks and is very familiar with public opinion framed. This trick is used by domestic media much more easily than those of American capitalists.

There are many ways to deal with this deliberate frame-up of public opinion. The most important thing is to grasp the pulse gate. First, you must know what legal disputes you have worth attacking?

Li Xiaole only needs to think about the future lawsuits that "The Walking Dead" and "Plant vs. Zombies" will encounter. Usually, after a person succeeds, some people around him want to get a share of the pie. Of course, without the support of the forces behind it, it will usually be just gossip.

"Plant vs. Zombies" has not been sued, but since it is a game made by the original Baokai game, it should have already had the prototype of this game... Li Xiaole checked the Internet and found that it was true. There is a game called "Seeds" that is somewhat similar to "Plant vs. Zombies".

"The Walking Dead" has a well-known copyright dispute. After the drama was sold, the original author Robert Kirkman received millions of royalties, and was soon sued by his former colleague Tony Moro in "Image" to share the copyright fee, because Tony Moro had participated in the production of the first two episodes of "The Walking Dead" comics... Of course, this matter was proved by the court that Tony Moro was not qualified to sign the author in "The Walking Dead", let alone copyright.

Li Xiaole thought about recalling in bed for a long time and finally confirmed these two facts. Since he knew these two life gates, he could spend some money in advance to solve these two things, but if he really did this, Sony and Fox would find more things, and he would still be passive. Instead of doing this, it would be better to set a trap...

After constructing the details of the plan in my mind, Li Xiaole immediately called Lei Ting.

"Sister Tingting, you put down everything and help me monitor the information of these people. The first time is Sony, Fox's legal department, followed by Baokai Game Production Company, and former cartoonist Tony Moro of "Image". If there is any connection and transaction content between them, you must get the exact evidence."

"What are you going to do? I need to know the specific intention of their contact to investigate." Lei Ting asked coldly on the other end of the phone.

Li Xiaole roughly said his plan. After listening to it, Lei Ting was silent for a long time before she said in a complicated tone:

"To be honest... I think my mind is already very dark, but sometimes I think that you are more negative than I do. Do you think things are really as bad as you imagined?"

"Sister Tingting..." Li Xiaole heard Lei Ting's concern for him, and couldn't help but feel warm, but he teased him:

"Actually, I always think there are more good people in the world, but I am a bad person. I can think of these bad intentions and I can't guarantee that others will do this too. It's always no harm to be careful."

"Okay, since you persist, I will do my best..." After Lei Ting's simple answer, she added in a rare cold tone before hanging up the phone: "Remember, this world is still beautiful~~~"

Li Xiaole couldn't help but smile when she heard this, touching her head and wondering how dark she was in Lei Ting's mind.
