Chapter 1792: Not Peaceful
Starting from scratch is undoubtedly a brand new experience.
But the first step, establishing a new base for latecomers, encountered difficulties.
"What should we name our city?" This matter was somewhat related to politics, so the question naturally went to the highest decision-maker, Lu Ping'an.
“Whatever, the name isn’t important.” Lu Ping’an has always been bad at naming things, so he gave up instantly.
“Then it’s called Peace City.”
"I suddenly feel that this is very important. Let's look through the dictionary carefully to see if we can find a suitable one."
Lu Ping'an suddenly changed his mind, but the reason was quite strange. He was tired of seeing all kinds of weird photoshopped pictures.
"I can tolerate having my head photoshopped onto armor, and I can tolerate having it hung on a baseball bat, but if there's really a statue in the square, or a portrait on the city wall, I'd like to live a few more years."
The extraordinary item of the peace amulet inevitably became popular due to advertisements from all sides and full promotion through official channels.
And Mr. Lu, who started from scratch and can still be considered a young man, was naturally dug out.
The slogan "Peace, peace, peace throughout life, safe journey" is very common and suitable, but if the owner of the company is called Ping An and has a nickname of safe journey, things become very subtle.
As the past of Mr. Lu, the owner of the slogan "Bon Journey", was dug up, "Bon Journey to You" became one of the memes of the new era.
In addition, it happens to be the Internet age when PS software has become popular, so all kinds of memes have come into being. Lu Ping'an's head was photoshopped onto various weapons and equipment. The merchant group cadre in charge of marketing thought that this might be an opportunity for red-black marketing, so he spent money on promotion.
In short, Lu Ping'an accidentally became the signature product of the "Ping'an" brand, and all kinds of photoshopped pictures were everywhere.
Lu Ping'an has regretted his decision so much. He really shouldn't have agreed to the name Ping'an brand in the first place. Instead, he named the brand after himself, which made him seem narcissistic.
You have already come out and used your own name as a signboard, so it's not too much for others to make memes about your signboard. But only Lu himself knows that he was just making a meme of Ping An Bao X from another world line, because that is indeed a good name.
What made Lu Ping'an most helpless was that he had to reward the marketing manager who hired internet trolls to promote this vulgar joke and photoshopped his head onto a baseball bat and a war hammer. They did use the least resources and achieved the highest marketing results.
Red and black marketing is still a concept that few people know about in this era. As long as the quality of the product is good enough, the popularity it attracts, whether good or bad, may eventually become a commercial result.
There is no need to say much about the quality of Ping An brand. It is of low price and good quality. The more you nitpick and compare, and the more you put it through various laboratory stress tests, the more its high quality is revealed.
Even other churches and companies have been selling at a loss under the pressure from the East Country. But they can't be like Mr. Lu, who doesn't care about the profit cost at all. If you really compare them, these are conscientious products that are overwhelming in all aspects.
As a result, the red and black business was really successful, Ping An brand became the spokesperson for conscientious goods, and Lu Ping An also gained a good reputation. This did not affect the fact that Lu Ping An's big and small head photos were photoshopped everywhere!
"No more Ping An City, absolutely no more."
Lu Ping'an didn't dare to imagine what kind of chaos would occur on the Internet in his hometown when the news of a safe city in another world spread.
The thought of his big head being magnified countless times and painted into the shape of a city made him tremble a little because of his overly rich imagination.
“Perhaps, after I return, I should promote some legislation on the Internet, at least to protect the right of portraiture.”
For the first time, Lu Ping'an planned to do what a time traveler who went back to the "past" should do most, and take the initiative to do some things in advance.
But the next moment, he hesitated again.
He knew that some things could not be sealed, and one day...
"If I introduce a bill in the legislative session to ban the circulation of mugshots, God knows how I would be photoshopped."
Lu Ping'an was silent. Based on his experience, these things that were completely unrelated would most likely come true as long as he really did them.
Perhaps the marketing department of the Rebirth Business Group will be very happy. As long as the advertising effect is good, they don’t care if their boss’s headshots are everywhere. This is mainly because they know that their boss will not stop it.
"Well, isn't that a good thing? Your profile pictures are everywhere, they are all symbols of faith. Don't you think that the images of gods are uncomfortable? Isn't this kind of profile picture a good thing?"
Big Cat was a little confused. She couldn't understand Lu Ping'an's obsession with his portrait rights.
On the contrary, in her impression, all the old and powerful people have made a lot of holy images, idols, and portraits, hoping to cover the entire world with them. That would be the greatest help in spreading the coordinates of faith.
In fact, except for the East, which has a clear ban on church advertising on television, other True God churches are the main purchasers of television advertising in various countries. However, since the audience has become accustomed to skipping commercials, the effect is not very good.
After hearing what Lu Ping'an said, Chris was already eager to make some moves, and even planned to do some more new-age religious marketing based on the so-called Internet era.
Fortunately, Lu Ping'an tried his best to stop her. Lu Ping'an knew what would happen if portrait rights and rumors were allowed to spread in this chaotic Internet age. God knows what those disseminators would do for traffic.
But from another perspective, the fact that Lu Ping'an didn't step on the brakes immediately because he was a little jealous of this wave of traffic.
Lu Ping'an is an upstart, or new money. He has grown too fast and has little reputation. If he and his group want to transition to old money, they need enough fame.
Whether it's playing with memes or being famous or not, for most ordinary people, the medal of war hero on Lu Ping'an is indeed not as memorable as the celebrity who plays with memes.
".Forget it, never mind."
In the end, Lu Ping'an could only sigh helplessly and let everything develop naturally, otherwise according to his past experience, the more he made trouble, the more fun he would have.
Now, ghost PV has not become completely popular yet, and sending a lawyer's letter or something like that just happened to hit the trend in recent years, and it might really become a popular meme.
I'd rather be in business, so I'll make the products first and then build up the industry.
After a while, if he doesn't show up for a while, maybe someone else will become the little prince of photo-editing. But he obviously felt at ease too early.
The little episode passed in a flash, and eventually the new city was named "Homecoming City".
After all, according to past experience, this type of city is destined to become the "newbie city" of most Shenzhou landing areas, with most of the population either having just arrived or preparing to go back.
For the enthusiastic visitors, it is meaningless to persuade them about safety, but for the tired travelers, being able to return home alive is a rare blessing and praise.
