Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 668: The Moon Shines on the Ditch

A detailed version upgrade description is attached below the announcement. Behind the densely packed text is the platform's comprehensive attention to security issues.

From the introduction of face recognition real-name authentication to the establishment of a driver background check mechanism in cooperation with the GA department; from the construction of a user credit system to real-time safety monitoring during the trip; from enhanced privacy protection measures to regular driver safety training.
This upgrade description is written with an almost paranoid rigor, listing dozens of security upgrade plans in accordance with the logical chain of prevention beforehand, monitoring during the process, and tracing back afterward.

Due to the frequent safety incidents involving online ride-hailing services in recent times, which attracted public attention, this statement from Didi Chuxing has attracted a lot of traffic.

So many security-related technology iterations have shocked everyone. From the lines, one can feel the determination and sincerity of Dadi Chuxing. It seems that the half a year mentioned in the previous announcement was not an empty statement.

In the eyes of the public, this security bulletin and upgrade instructions give people the feeling of a master who has been practicing martial arts in seclusion for decades and will be invincible once he succeeds and comes out.

On one side, there are frequent safety hazards, while on the other side, they are eager to arm themselves to the teeth in terms of safety. Comparing the two, the difference is obvious.

After many users experienced SF Express’s taxi-hailing service, they spoke out online.

"This is what we call a professional security solution! The 'women-only' features on some platforms before were just a temporary solution and not a permanent one."

"Although I don't quite understand many of the safety measures above, I know how to count, so I'll choose the side with more."

"On one side, the platform discriminates against us men, as if we are inferior even though we spend the same amount of money. On the other side, it treats us equally. Is there any need to choose?"

"Whether you use it carefully or not, you can tell the difference from the announcement. I've experienced ride-sharing in a taxi. Just listening to the reminders from the safety experts and holding the one-touch alarm function button in my hand, my mother no longer has to worry about me taking a taxi."

"When the cost of breaking the law is far greater than the benefits gained from breaking the law, illegal behavior will be effectively curbed, which is the key to reducing crime."

"Now when I open a certain Didi app, it always reminds me of the days when I stopped illegal taxis on the roadside"

There is no harm without comparison.

The media's extensive coverage and users' spontaneous promotion have combined to reshape the market structure of the "taxi travel" carpooling business with overwhelming force. The industry giant that once occupied 90% of the market share lost one-third of its market share in just one week.

The industry reshuffle brought about by this security revolution has just begun.

The sudden changes in the situation in just the past few days have made some of Didi’s senior executives very uneasy.

When Liu Qing saw the detailed security upgrade announcement from her competitor, her pupils suddenly contracted and her fingertips tightened slightly on the tablet.

After a few seconds of silence, she picked up the equipment and pushed open the door of Cheng Wei's office.

Inside the house, Cheng Wei was talking to Zhang Bo in a low voice. Seeing Liu Qing barging in without notifying him, he frowned slightly, but still waved his hand at Zhang Bo: "Do as you said just now."

Zhang Bo nodded, quickly left, and closed the door.

Without any greeting, Liu Qing slammed the tablet in front of Cheng Wei. The announcement on the screen was clearly visible - "Taxi Travel Safety Upgrade Plan".

"I need an explanation." Her voice was cold.

Cheng Wei just glanced at it, then leaned back in his chair, looking indifferent: "What do you want to explain?"

"The similarity is at least 50%." Liu Qing tapped the screen with his fingertips, "Don't tell me this is a coincidence."

Cheng Wei sneered: "Leaking secrets? Mr. Liu, you think too highly of us - even if we wanted to leak, they might not be interested in this 'low-profile version'."

He raised his eyes and looked at her directly. "Technology is not made up out of thin air. The manpower, time, and resources invested behind this solution are something that only a handful of companies in China can accomplish within half a year. If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to check it out."

Liu Qing was about to retort when her phone suddenly vibrated. She glanced at the caller ID and pressed the answer button: "... Got it, I'll deal with it right away." After hanging up, she said coldly: "It's better to do as you say."

Then he turned and left.

Cheng Wei shook his head, feeling a little helpless.

He admitted that Liu Qing was indeed very skilled in capital operation - but this ability was more or less dependent on the complex resources behind her. In terms of actual operation, she was just average; as for technology? She was a complete layman.

A qualified executive of an Internet company does not have to be proficient in everything, but he or she should at least have some understanding of the basic logic of each field.

Otherwise, a ridiculous scene like the one just now would happen - he, a person with a sales background, had to teach her technical knowledge.

Unlike medicine which requires specialized talents, managers of Internet companies are basically generalists with knowledge of multiple disciplines!
Here, when Liu Qing returned to the office, Huang Jieli had been waiting for a long time, her face solemn, "Sister Qing, there is a problem with 'Justice Escort'."

Liu Qing frowned, "What's going on?"

"This was just published today," Huang Jieli handed over her phone. On the screen was a striking title from Zhihu's hot list: "Can you share some of the weird female passengers you encountered in online ride-hailing?"

"I have so many orders that I can't handle them all, but my income has plummeted - this is the 'benefit' that 'Justice Escort' has given me!
Hello everyone, I am a female Didi driver. Since the launch of this crappy escort operation, I have received a lot more orders, and all the passengers are female.

It has only been online for a few days, and there are not many good reviews. All of them are complaints from various weird female passengers. The money earned is not even enough to cover the deductions.

Why are these women so troublesome? They give bad reviews for just the smallest things!

I am speechless, sisters, can you share the female passengers you met?

The top replies all came from complaints from female Didi drivers, and the words were full of resentment:
"The female passenger complained that the free mineral water on the bus was not Evian, but the problem was that I was a hitchhiker and the bottle of water was my own."

"A woman came up and asked me to turn on the air conditioner to 24.5 degrees, turn on the music, and play Wang Lihong's songs. She is prone to motion sickness, and asked me to keep the speed at 40 miles per hour and not to accelerate or brake suddenly. She treated me like Xiao Mo's classmate. To be honest, my wife doesn't have so many problems when riding in the car."

"What's the big deal? Yesterday, a woman said that according to the horoscope, it's not a good idea to go due south today. I insisted on taking a detour but didn't want to pay extra. Finally, I listened to her and took a detour via the expressway. She charged me the toll and asked me why I had to pay. No matter how I explained, she just didn't understand. Finally, she paid reluctantly. I got a bad review."

"I have to say, looking back now, I feel like the male passenger was an angel. He did nothing wrong and just went to the place to pay."

"It's not without benefits. At least now when I get home from get off work and park my car, my husband seems to like me more and more. It's really strange."

The question below this popular question is even more ironic: "How do you evaluate Didi's psychopathic female driver?"

The comment section has become a scene of "women harming each other": passengers complain about the drivers' bad attitudes, drivers blame the passengers for being troublesome, and the two sides are at loggerheads.

Liu Qing was shocked by what he saw and his fingertips felt cold.

The "utopian world of mutual assistance for women" that she had envisioned has now turned into a chaotic hell.

This made Liu Qing a little discouraged, and then he became furious. He had spent so much effort to create such a good environment.

These women who are not destined to be princesses but have princess syndrome don't know anything and just keep making a fuss, as if they are the only one right in the whole world and everyone else should revolve around them.

Liu Qing sighed heavily.

I originally turned my heart to the bright moon,
But they are ignorant!
