A Good Opportunity for Promotion! You Won't Let People Off the Hook!

Zhao Moqing was furious seeing the insults. They were all keyboard warriors, typing away without understanding the truth. Douyin really was a place where whoever held a phone was right.

Yet, so many keyboard warriors supported this twisted version of reality.

The key was that even her sister-in-law was influenced and couldn't help but chime in. Zhao Moqing knew her sister-in-law wasn't a keyboard warrior herself, but she went with the flow. With so many keyboard warriors, public opinion could twist facts, and those who went with the flow ended up believing it too.

This was precisely why, on the internet, truth sometimes depended on whoever was filming and posting videos. Many people had been driven to despair by such "justice."

Because the internet was so murky, rational people often didn't rush to comment.

Let the bullets fly a little longer, and the truth would eventually come out, avoiding the embarrassment of a reversal.

Zhao Moqing immediately took out her phone and dialed Qin Lin. She had to tell him the news.

Meanwhile.

Qin Lin returned home, took a refreshing shower, played with Wangcai for a bit, and then went into his room to make plans.

The villa had a great opening day, with over 100,000 yuan in revenue, which filled him with confidence. The tourism management knowledge he'd gained in college was finally being put to use.

Aside from the game in his mind, his biggest asset now was the 30 mu Bougainvillea Sea. He was confident that, in terms of scale, few places in China could compare to his sea of flowers. With good promotion, it could attract even more tourists.

What was the 238 tourists he received today? Top summer resorts in the country could receive up to 20,000 tourists a day.

Of course, his small villa didn't have that capacity, but it could double or triple that number.

Then, the villa couldn't just have the Bougainvillea Sea; the activities couldn't be limited to the small jungle adventure and grass sliding.

There was a lack of entertainment, not enough ways to drain tourists' wallets. People who came out to play didn't care about spending money.

Especially young people. If they brought girls out to play, and you only let them spend less than 300 yuan, they would feel awkward, and the villa should feel even more awkward.

Therefore, he needed to develop new projects. These projects should not only interest the tourists attracted by the Bougainvillea Sea but also keep them entertained and willing to spend money.

He had surveyed the terrain around the villa and found a natural fit for a great project. The villa was surrounded by lakes and dams, which naturally meant there were many rivers.

A river passing by the villa led directly to a mountaintop, perfect for creating a 10-kilometer, 2-hour high mountain rafting project. Charging 150 yuan per person would definitely work.

Rafting was also a popular modern recreational activity.

In many villas and scenic spots, it was a must-have attraction. Many places without river conditions had even created dry-land rafting and glass slide rafting...

However, building a rafting project wouldn't be cheap. The construction of the rafting river channel was the most significant cost. With river conditions, 10 kilometers would likely cost over a million yuan. Not to mention the need for a visitor service center, warehouse, restrooms, shower rooms, ticket booths, a rafting convenience store, a waiting long cable, a starting dock, and an ending dock.

Then there were the inflatable rafts, life jackets, helmets, inflation equipment, boat transport vehicles, tourist shuttle buses, and a water storage pool, as well as simple uphill roads.

This would likely require an investment of over 5 million yuan.

However, with this additional rafting project, the villa's status would be significantly elevated.

Moreover, given the villa's current momentum, earning 100,000 yuan a day meant at least 3 million yuan in monthly revenue, which was more than enough to afford this project.

If promoted well and tourist numbers surged, the investment in rafting could be recouped in less than a month.

Therefore, the key now was promotion. He thought of the Douyin platform. Many popular villas and B&Bs nowadays became internet-famous attractions through Douyin.

With good promotion, even an unremarkable place could attract crowds of tourists.

As Qin Lin was making plans, he received Zhao Moqing's call.

He immediately answered, "Missing me already? How about I book a hotel room and come pick you up now?"

Zhao Moqing said urgently, "You still have time to joke around? Quickly check Douyin's local videos. That unreasonable woman from today is slandering the villa."

Qin Lin frowned, hung up, and logged into Douyin, selecting local videos. The first video he saw was of a woman arrogantly saying, "Everyone, look, Qinglin Villa is engaging in forced buying and selling..."

"This is ridiculous..." Qin Lin was speechless. Why were some people so troublesome?

If there weren't so many of them, the world would probably be much more harmonious.

The key was that this video account was clearly a self-media account with 250,000 followers.

Did the owner of this video account not investigate or think? Were they just trying to dispense justice?

This video had already received many likes and had become the top trending local video.

Looking at the video comments, they were all scolding his villa. If this continued, his villa's business would inevitably be affected.

After all, people's subjective consciousness was very strong. Once they decided something was bad, a strong subconscious would form.

However, he wasn't too worried. This woman seemed to have forgotten that the villa had surveillance cameras.

Furthermore, to prevent such incidents, the villa's surveillance cameras were equipped with microphones, so conversations could be clearly heard.

He hadn't expected this to actually be useful.

But didn't the other party know that spreading slander and damaging someone's reputation carried legal responsibility?

"However, these likes don't seem to meet the standard for sentencing," Qin Lin frowned. He directly clicked on the video and then chose Dou+. He pushed it to the trending list, sliding the price all the way to the right.

Thinking one account wasn't enough, Qin Lin registered two more accounts and similarly pushed the video to the trending list, sliding the price all the way to the right.

After several rounds, he had spent 10,000 yuan.

Naturally, this would help the video go viral, making more people aware of this video that smeared him.

After tonight, countless people might curse him online. If the traffic pool was breached, the entire internet might be cursing him.

After all, this kind of incident is what netizens care about most, and it's the kind of video that keyboard warriors, with their misplaced sense of justice, love the most.

However, this was his best opportunity to promote the villa. It might even become a viral tourist spot overnight.

Because of reverse psychology.

Numerous incidents online have proven that the greater the initial injustice, the greater the benefit for the person who was smeared when the truth comes out.

Those keyboard warriors would immediately delete their previous insults and then, with a "I knew it all along" attitude, become fervent supporters, turning their anger elsewhere.

"Next, we just wait for the video to go viral, and then call the police," Qin Lin muttered to himself.

Since others were trying to steal his livelihood, he wouldn't be lenient.

Meanwhile.

On the other side, a woman was excitedly watching a video on her phone.

"Honey, look, this villa is in trouble," Lin Chunlan said to her husband with a smug look. She then turned to a young man beside them, "Cousin, thank you so much this time. You've helped me get my revenge."

Beside her, Lin Chunlan's husband shook his head helplessly. They were already back; why couldn't his wife just let things go? But she insisted on getting her way.

Guo Huai smiled as he looked at the like notifications on his backend. However, he still confirmed, "Cousin, Cousin-in-law, are you sure about what you're saying? Because I plan to blow this up."

His account had been active for almost three years, with only 250,000 followers, some of whom he'd bought. He hadn't managed to create a single viral event.

This incident of his cousin and his wife being subjected to forced buying and selling at Qinglin Villa was definitely a hot social issue.

Focusing on this could help him gain a lot of followers.

Therefore, he decided to invest 2,000 yuan in Dou+ to boost the initial traffic and see how it went.

Lin Chunlan said dismissively, "Cousin, didn't I show you the video? Is there any reason to doubt it?"

Guo Huai nodded and promptly took out his phone to use Dou+ to get it trending.

After all, they were family, and he didn't suspect a thing. His cousin had always treated him very well since they were young.
