After careful planning of the microblogging topic, to help the Charm Clan MX3 replacement campaign on Weibo 8 minutes to change 2099 units. The number of machines that can be snatched in a short period of time is limited, but the 2099 figures hide behind the millions of fans involved in snapping up the games, providing a potential consumer's opportunity to exploit the Phantom's mobile phone.

In fact, the charm of the fan economy is much more than that, micro-blog in the provision of social networking tools and platforms, but also for corporate branding and marketing to provide a reference to a new way. Similar marketing is also common on Twitter and Facebook, where the Four Seasons Hotel has launched a virtual cocktail party, fully mobilizing fans and creating fun, while cool stone ice cream has added 66 in just eight weeks to Facebook, through a "taste contest". 000 fans, and the cool holy stone to increase the 1%~1.2% sales revenue, electronic gifts also brought 10,000 U.S. dollars sales.
