I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.
Chapter 263 Public Opinion Storm, Myth Counterattack
Hua Zitong walked to the magic sand table in the center of the conference room, touched it lightly with her fingertips, and immediately a 3D projection of New Beginning City and various real-time information streams appeared on the sand table.
"First, we need to control public opinion." Hua Zitong's fingertip swept across the map of New Beginning City, circling several key areas.
"The provocation from Blood Wolf Warriors, and the video of you single-handedly defeating more than a dozen of them, must have gone viral online by now. We must get the information that's in our favor out of the public as soon as possible."
"How is it advantageous?" Arcane Light couldn't help but interject, still somewhat confused. After all, Li Wu had crippled Blood Wolf Battle Soul's shoulders, which didn't sound "advantageous" at all.
Hua Zitong glanced at him, her tone calm:
"I believe the people at Dragon Shield definitely have the full version of last night's video. The fact that they didn't directly hold the Chairman accountable shows that they approve of his handling of the situation. That's our first advantage."
"The second advantage is the president's 'restraint'." Hua Zitong looked at Li Wu, "You are fully capable of making Blood Wolf War Soul and his subordinates pay a heavier price without crossing the legal line, but you did not."
"You only crippled the Blood Wolf Warriors' shoulders, rendering them unable to fight for a short period. In the world of Awakeners, that's already considered 'merciful'."
Steel Shield nodded thoughtfully: "Indeed, if this were in the Origin Realm, that guy would have been reduced to ashes by the Guild Master long ago."
Hua Zitong continued, "We need to use Lin Hai's channels to spread this information as quickly and appropriately as possible. We want everyone to know that the 'Myth' Guild possesses absolute power, but we also abide by the rules and know how to exercise restraint."
Lin Hai adjusted his glasses, his brow furrowing slightly: "This will be quite difficult to pull off. The Blood Wolf Guild will definitely have its own public relations team; they won't just sit idly by."
"Of course," Hua Zitong sneered, "but they can't change the fact. A dozen of them were all defeated by the president alone, without using any lethal methods."
"This fact is enough to shock most awakened individuals. What we need to do is amplify this fact and give it a 'mythical' meaning."
"For example, we can emphasize that the president was forced to defend himself and fight back when the other party was 'bullying him with numbers' and 'maliciously provoking him'."
Hua Zitong continued, "We can release some edited video clips to highlight Blood Wolf's arrogance and the guild leader's composure. We can even find some 'eyewitnesses' to corroborate our claims."
Li Wu nodded inwardly; Hua Zitong's thinking was clear and realistic.
In this age of information overload, the power of public opinion is sometimes even more effective than force. His seemingly simple and brutal act of crippling Blood Wolf's shoulders yesterday actually left Hua Zitong with a huge room for maneuver.
"Lin Hai, do you think this is feasible?" Li Wu looked at Lin Hai.
Lin Hai pondered for a moment, then pushed up his glasses, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light:
"It's feasible! Moreover, this is a hundred times more effective than our previous idea of attracting talent with money and resources. After all, what Awakened Ones value most is strength and future potential. The Chairman's strength has already been proven in the best way."
"Alright!" Li Wu made the decision. "Lin Hai, you will be fully responsible for this public relations campaign. Hua Zitong, you will assist Lin Hai by providing various information support and guidance."
"Yes!" Lin Hai and Hua Zitong replied in unison.
"In addition, Lin Hai," Li Wu added, "contact some influential self-media outlets to ensure that this publicity campaign achieves full coverage without any blind spots."
"Understood!" Lin Hai said confidently.
Looking at his spirited colleagues in the conference room, Li Wu felt a sense of relief.
He knew that his "performance" last night had successfully put the "Myth" guild in the spotlight. Now, it was up to Lin Hai and Hua Zitong to see how they would turn this storm into a powerful driving force for the "Myth" guild's progress.
He knew in his heart that this real-world game had only just begun.
The information war is just the first step.
"Meeting adjourned!" Li Wu said in a deep voice.
Everyone stood up and left the meeting room with excitement and anticipation.
Li Wu remained alone in the conference room, walked to the window, and looked outside.
"Blood Wolf Guild, your good days are over," Li Wu thought to himself.
……
Soon, Lin Hai's public relations team, under Hua Zitong's guidance, launched an operation with astonishing speed.
Information from various channels flooded into every corner of Xinshicheng like a tidal wave.
"Breaking News! Myth Guild Leader, Fog Sees Through Flowers, single-handedly crushes ten elite members of the Blood Wolf Guild!"
Exclusive! Blood Wolf Warrior's arrogant provocation ultimately resulted in a broken shoulder!
"A perfect blend of restraint and power! The guild leader of the Mythical Guild demonstrates a new style of Awakened One!"
Various clickbait headlines, leaked information, and rumors flooded the Awakened Forum, local news apps, and even some underground information exchange networks in New Beginning City.
Lin Hai understood the essence of information warfare. Instead of issuing an official statement directly, he cleverly used methods such as "anonymous leaks" and "insider revelations" to spread the information they wanted to convey in a more impactful and credible way.
He even found some ordinary citizens who had been watching near Red Leaf Old Street the night before and asked them to tell their stories as "eyewitnesses" about how calm and restrained the leader of the "Myth" guild was, and how arrogant and unreasonable the Blood Wolf guild was.
While these testimonies from ordinary citizens may not have the same level of credibility as those of the awakened, they resonate more widely among the general public.
Of course, the Blood Wolf Guild did not sit idly by and wait for its demise.
Although Blood Wolf War Soul's shoulders were crippled, the power of the Sakura Kingdom behind him, as well as the network of relationships he had cultivated in New Beginning City for many years, were not to be underestimated.
"Disgraceful! 'Seeing Through the Fog' is a lawless thug!"
"The Blood Wolf Guild vows to seek justice! We urge Dragon Shield to severely punish the perpetrators!"
"The guild leader of the Myth Guild openly used force in the real world, trampling on the law!"
The Blood Wolf Guild also released their counterattack statements through various channels.
They portrayed Li Wu as a lawless and power-abusing thug, attempting to distort the nature of the incident from "self-defense" to "malicious assault."
They even emphasized that Li Wu's act of violence against more than a dozen members of the Blood Wolf Guild in broad daylight seriously endangered social order and the image of the Awakened.
For a time, the public opinion field in Xinshicheng was filled with the smoke of battle.
Two completely different voices clashed fiercely, each vying for the right to speak.
