This man knows how to hype
Chapter 688 As the saying goes, the timing is on my side!
Chapter 688 As the saying goes, the timing is on my side!
Said it before.
The Eastern Time in the United States is 13 hours behind China Time.
Therefore, before the U.S. stock market opened, A-shares and Hong Kong stocks reacted first.
The first to be hit was Baidu, which Zhou had been obsessed with. In a short while, its stock price fell by 7%, and its market value evaporated by nearly billion Hong Kong dollars.
Not only that, it was also at this time that domestic AI peers such as Doubao and Nano announced that they would connect to MOSS-550B1.
Under such circumstances, Baidu quickly announced that it would make “Wenxin Yiyan 4.0” free, attempting to release positive news to the market in this way.
Unfortunately, this move caused their stock price to fall even more sharply.
What’s even more regrettable is that even though Baidu was inexplicably hit so badly by the “coverage attack”, it is not even a focus in the public opinion field at this time.
Because everyone’s attention is now on the U.S. stock market and the international situation, both at home and abroad.
chaos.
Public opinion is in disarray.
There are all kinds of comments, including those that are bearish on the US stock market, those that hedge their bets, those that slander MOSS-550B, those that attempt to change the subject, and those that analyze the international situation.
Among these public opinions, the names of the four MOSS Technology shareholders, Xu Xiyu, Gao Wen, Yu Yuyu, and Hu Ningwei, appeared frequently.
Especially Xu Xiyu.
My ancestral grave is almost being cursed to death by the haters, overseas forces and their internet trolls.
It can even be said that Xu Xiyu appears in public opinion more frequently than MOSS-550B.
The reason why this kind of public opinion situation arises is actually not complicated.
Firstly, compared with Gao Wen and others who are actually responsible for the technology, Xu Xiyu’s international reputation is much higher, so everyone will naturally focus their attention on him.
Secondly, whether it’s the internet trolls or the black fans of certain forces at home and abroad, they actually have no knowledge of things at the technical level of AI.
Including those who support it, most people don’t have the knowledge to quibble about what’s so great about MOSS-550B.
In this situation, the only effective public opinion offensive that the black fans and the internet trolls could quickly launch was directed at Xu Xiyu.
Of course, their defense was indeed broken by MOSS-550B, so they instinctively wanted to retaliate against Xu Xiyu, the “culprit”.
After all, it is difficult to prove that “MOSS-550B is not a good thing”; but it is much easier to prove that “Xu Xiyu is not a good thing”.
What they are doing is “changing concepts” to lead the public to “hate the whole family”.
However, the attacks from the black fans and the internet trolls will naturally provoke a counterattack from the supportive crowd.
As time goes by, the frequency of the name “Xu Xiyu” appearing at home and abroad has become extremely high.
At the same time, all his past public speeches, news, scandals, etc. were dug up by haters and internet trolls, and repeatedly deconstructed and interpreted, taking them out of context and making malicious associations.
The purpose is to find new attack points.
pressure.
An unprecedented pressure from public opinion came.
Gao Wen, who was called to Beijing to attend an important meeting, sat in Xu Xiyu’s office and said with a trembling face, “Crazy, I think they are really crazy.
Now even the time when you were in college and ate barbecue and drank too much and peed in the wild was brought up!”
As soon as these words were spoken, a burst of suppressed “hehehe” laughter suddenly rang out in the office.
The laughter came from Hu Ningwei, Yu Yuyu and Du Zhiping who were sitting in the office together.
That’s right, Du Zhiping is here too.
The main reason was that she hadn’t been able to chat with Xu Xiyu much since they met at the last founding ceremony, and this time she used the excuse that she was “worried that Xu Xiyu would be under too much pressure from public opinion,” so she came over to see if she could help.
Now that she’s here, it’s not good to let her go.
So, now we are sitting in the office chatting.
Listening to their laughter, Xu Xiyu also said with a smile: “It’s normal for them to go crazy. If I were in their place, I would go crazy too. AI and the chip industry are the last hope for the United States to suppress us. Now the hope of AI has been shattered by you…”
“It’s not me, it’s us, it’s us!” Gao Wen quickly emphasized.
“Don’t be modest. It’s you and your team that have made the absolute contribution to the research and development of MOSS. What Xiaoyu, Xiyu and I can provide is just part of the funding.” Hu Ningwei laughed.
Although the three of them are shareholders, they will not shamelessly take credit for this matter.
After Hu Ningwei finished speaking, Xu Xiyu continued happily: “However, I am the only one who has taken the limelight. I think this is not good. In fact, President Gao is the protagonist…”
“No, no, no, it’s fine, it’s fine.” Gao Wen quickly interrupted, oh my god, he couldn’t stand the limelight like that.
After he finished speaking, he looked around at everyone and continued with a hint of self-mockery, “It seems that I am selfish, but luckily I have Old Xu at the forefront this time.
Otherwise, my team members and I will not be able to withstand the impact of public opinion. If our every move is discussed, how can we live like this?”
“No, that’s not right. If I hadn’t invested in MOSS, your release of MOSS-550B would have been discussed, but it would definitely not have been torn apart and criticized like it was for me.
Because you are not a public figure, as long as the higher-ups protect you a little, nothing can be found about you on the Internet. As for me, I can’t be protected even if I want to, so I can only let everyone dig up information about me.”
Xu Xiyu said this, rubbing his face and stretching.
After hearing what he said, Gao Wen thought for a while and said, “That’s the truth, but reality is reality, and reality is sometimes unreasonable.
The pressure from public opinion is really too great. Do you want to find a way to resolve it?”
Gao Wen’s suggestion made Hu Ningwei and the other two look at Xu Xiyu.
But Xu Xiyu shook his head: “It can’t be solved, and there is no need to solve it. You just said that reality is reality. In the face of absolute reality, what’s the point of talking nonsense?
Even if they blacken me into an African, it cannot change the impact brought by MOSS-550B. Our stuff is open source.
They can make NASA ban MOSS-550B, and companies ban it? Can they make other countries ban it? Impossible.
AI is the trend of the future, and only a fool would put all his eggs in the American basket. Besides, Tru will soon realize that he shouldn’t keep staring at me.”
“Why?” Yu Yuyu asked puzzled.
“Let me ask you, what is the most important thing for Tru?” Xu Xiyu asked back.
However, before Yu Yuyu answered this question, Du Zhiping, who had been silent, took the lead and asked softly, “Consolidate his power?”
“Yes, although Trudeau’s approval rating is high, his control over the powerful departments in the United States is very weak. Even within their Red Elephant camp, there are a lot of establishment figures who oppose him.
All of Trudeau’s actions have only one core purpose, which is to win the internal struggle and seize power. And the support for him to win the internal struggle lies in the public support rate.
Therefore, he must eliminate and downplay everything that is not favorable to him. He must make every plan and every action of his achieve unprecedented success, or at least appear to be winning.
Just like the Stargate Project aimed at AI hegemony, which originally relied on Open AI’s model, Nvidia’s chips, and SoftBank’s funding, it can be said to be foolproof.
But as soon as he proposed it, he was slapped in the face by us, and he had no way to suppress the coverage of MOSS-550B in a short period of time.
In this situation, if you were Tru, would you continue to target me and hype my topic? As the saying goes, the more mistakes you make, the better it is to say nothing. “
After these words were spoken, everyone in the office fell into deep thought.
After a long while, Yu Yuyu’s eyes lit up and he clapped his hands and said, “Eh! It seems to be true.”
“That’s what I mean. Based on this analysis, why do you think Microsoft, Amazon, AMD, and Nvidia are so eager to officially announce the access to MOSS-550B?”
“You mean… the Blue Donkey camp is causing trouble?” Du Zhiping added.
“Not entirely, but that’s definitely part of the reason.” Xu Xiyu smiled.
Then he continued, “Okay, let’s continue analyzing. Next, Tru wants to downplay the topic of MOSS-550B. What will Blue Donkey do?”
“Continue to hype?”
“It is highly likely that the topic will continue to be hyped, but if it is hyped like this, the public’s attention is limited. It will only last for ten days or half a month at most, and then the topic will cool down.
Therefore, Blue Donkey will definitely be looking for a hype hook that can have a lasting impact. And this hook, just happens to be something we can provide.”
“You mean the ‘Wandering Blue Planet’ owned by MOSS?!” Hu Ningwei’s eyes lit up.
“Yes, one of the easiest things to remember in this world is stories.” At this point, Xu Xiyu’s tone became regretful, “I really regret it now.
Although we have already started filming “Wandering Blue Planet 2”, it cannot be completed in a short time. Otherwise, the effect will be better. The MOSS in 2 is much more amazing than 1. “
“But the problem is that we don’t have a good relationship with Blue Donkey. We are openly against DI.” Yu Yuyu said worriedly. Xu Xiyu laughed when he heard it: “You think too much. Compared with the conflict between them and Tru, our opposition to DI is nothing.
From the time they fabricated charges to capture Tru, to the time they directly killed him later, the situation between them and Tru had become a fight to the death.
In this case, anything that can hit the opponent can be used.”
Without waiting for anyone to respond, he continued, “If our artificial intelligence was not called MOSS; if the MOSS-550B we released did not achieve the current results;
If Tru and Blue Donkey hadn’t been so upset; if Tru hadn’t won; if he hadn’t proposed the Stargate project; if the North American theater headquarters was not under Blue Donkey’s control.
If, if, all the ifs…if even one of these ‘ifs’ was missing, we wouldn’t have this opportunity, but unfortunately, not a single ‘if’ was missing.
This is not the end. Tru is good at sucking the blood of his allies, and he is also annoying in Europe. In other words, European film producers are likely to merge with North American ones…”
At this point, Xu Xiyu’s eyes swept over Gao Wen, Yu Yuyu, and Du Zhiping’s faces in turn, and finally stopped at Hu Ningwei’s face, who was sitting at the end. He knocked on the table and said, “This is it, the time is right for me!”
Bright.
When Xu Xiyu said “The time is on my side”, Hu Ningwei’s bright eyes lit up visibly, filled with admiration and love.
Crisp.
Du Zhiping, who was standing next to him, only felt a tingling sensation going straight from his tailbone to the top of his head.
But the next second, the numbness turned into rolling sadness.
he……
Why not be born earlier?
So she quickly lowered her head, trying her best to avoid looking at Xu Xiyu.
She was afraid that if they looked at each other, she would make an inappropriate expression.
As for Gawain, his face was full of shock. He slowly raised his hands and was about to applaud.
But Yu Yuyu suddenly jumped up, stepped forward and hugged Xu Xiyu’s arm and said excitedly: “Brother, one more, one more!”
“???” Xu Xiyu slowly turned his head towards her, his face full of black question marks. What do you mean another one?
“You looked so handsome when you pretended just now. Pretend again, and again!” Yu Yuyu’s expression was serious and his tone was sincere.
But the more serious and sincere she was, the faster the veins on Xu Xiyu’s forehead throbbed.
Yu Yuyu!
Your uncle’s! !
“Haha ….” Xu Xiyu cursed in his heart. The others couldn’t hold
Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Shan Xinbao poked his head in: “Boss, Nancy is here.”
After saying this, Gao Wen looked at his watch, stood up and said, “I have to go too. The U.S. stock market will open in two hours. I have to go back and keep an eye on it.”
“Then I’ll leave too.” Du Zhiping stood up.
When Hu Ningwei heard that Nancy was coming, she didn’t want to stay here either.
Seeing that the three of them were about to leave, Yu Yuyu instinctively followed the crowd.
At one point, all four of them wanted to leave.
It was better for them to leave, and Xu Xiyu did not try to keep them. Instead, he stood up and sent them to the door, and also welcomed Nancy in.
After closing the door, as soon as Xu Xiyu sat down, Nancy grabbed his shoulders with both hands, pressed him on the sofa and asked, “You damn bastard!
We agreed that after I came here, you would hug me and tell me how much you missed me. I have been ignored by you for several days!”
“As you can see, there have been a lot of things going on these days, so I have been living in the company. If you don’t believe me, go and take a look.” Xu Xiyu said, pointing to the lounge in the office.
“Then I’ll stay here today too!” Nancy said, loosening her grip and sitting directly on Xu Xiyu’s lap.
“Okay, let’s take a look at the U.S. stock market together.”
“That’s right.” Seeing that Xu Xiyu did not refuse, Nancy was even more satisfied. She put her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder.
Then, he couldn’t help but blush and whispered, “How about we take a look now?”
“Now?” Xu Xiyu looked at his watch and shook his head, “It’s not open yet.”
“Open?!” Nancy stood still, clenching her teeth and asking, “Which US stock are you talking about?”
“Which US stocks are you talking about?” Xu Xiyu smiled deliberately.
As soon as these words were spoken, Nancy was about to continue arguing, but she heard a “pop” and a hot and numb feeling came from behind.
It turned out that Xu Xiyu slapped the US stock market in the face.
After slapping her, he pressed Nancy’s head back onto his shoulder and whispered, “Be quiet, you’re like a firecracker, what are you making such a fuss about?”
This sentence was a bit too “slangy”, Nancy only roughly understood it, but she was really honest, lying in Xu Xiyu’s arms, motionless.
However, this situation did not last long.
Because both of their legs were a little numb.
“Let’s go.” Xu Xiyu stretched out his hand and stretched her ribs, motioning her to stand up.
“where to?”
“go back.”
“Didn’t you say you were going to live here?”
“I don’t do anything other than work in the office.” Xu Xiyu shook his head. He would never do these things in the office again. Once it became a habit, it would be very troublesome.
Nancy didn’t feel any regret, but happily urged Xu Xiyu to leave quickly.
More than an hour later…
The two returned to the residence that Xu Xiyu arranged for Nancy.
As soon as the door was closed, Nancy, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn’t wait to open the store.
Xu Xiyu held the shares and waited and watched for a while.
He then invested heavily in the U.S. stock market.
Under Xu Xiyu’s big short injection, the US stock market plunged directly and continued to fall.
However, the U.S. stock market is not without the ability to resist. It decisively adopted short squeeze tactics and continued to actively raise stocks for buying.
As a result, with the continuous buying and selling, the US stock market began to fluctuate.
Nancy attempted to use the volatility of the U.S. stock market to force Xu Xiyu’s position to be liquidated and drain his funds.
she……
Successful.
After half an hour of back and forth, Xu Xiyu finally paid 100 million yuan.
But Nancy was not satisfied.
After resting for a while, she verbally instigated Xu Xiyu to use the remaining funds to cover his position.
Soon, Xu Xiyu was trapped in the U.S. stock market for the second time.
That is, when he was trapped, the US stocks on the other side also opened.
Forty minutes later, when Xu Xiyu paid another price of about 8000 million, Nvidia’s stock price fell by 9.3%, and its market value directly evaporated by more than billion.
More than 300 billion!
It would take more than three thousand times for Nancy Stock to squeeze out that much money.
One hundred million at a time, three times a day, it would take three years to squeeze it!
Panic.
With such a big drop in share price, Nvidia is about to cry out for help!
Also wanting to call out for help are US semiconductor supply chain companies such as Broadcom and TSMC, whose stock prices are also falling.
But it’s too early to call him dad now.
Because it will continue to fall.
During the trading session, seeing the stock price drop by as much as 17%, Lao Zhou also shouted “Dad”.
The entry #Nvidia’s stock price plummeted, and its market value evaporated by 5900 billion# also directly became a hot search.
Also trending on the search list was #US stocks plummeted, and the technology sector evaporated 1 trillion#
It was at this time that the second promotional video of “Wandering Blue Planet” was quietly released.
A good show is about to begin.
