Chapter 362 Guess what you want to eat ( subscriptions per day)
"Then why is he in such a hurry? Once No. 13 Middle School really moves there, it won't be too late for us to open a branch there." Gu Xingruo spread his hands and said indifferently.
As she spoke, she pulled Xu Wen out of the room and urged him to have breakfast.
In the restaurant, the nannies had already prepared breakfast carefully.
"Principal Chen thinks that housing is cheap now, and if he moves there he can choose a good location, which can also be considered an investment," Xu Wen explained.
"Tell him that if my father really developed houses there, I can definitely get him the lowest price. If I can't, I will make up the difference for him." Gu Xingruo waved her hand.
The wealthy young lady always likes to solve problems with money.
"No rush, let's have breakfast first. The Meituan matter must be dealt with as soon as possible." Xu Wen sat on the chair and turned the vibrating phone to silent mode.
In the restaurant, the nanny had just served the steaming seafood porridge.
Gu Xingruo scooped a spoonful and blew on it, then suddenly looked up: "Yes, you go and do your thing, just leave it to me, I'll go and talk to you."
The eldest lady felt that she had to play a role at this critical moment, and she could still handle this small matter.
"Then please tell Principal Chen that Huagong Education is now very large, so we have to take everything slowly." Xu Wen reminded.
Gu Xingruo nodded to show that she understood.
Xu Wen did not dare to directly express his doubts about the relocation of No. 13 Middle School.
One reason was that he had no evidence; the other was that he was not sure whether this incident happened because of his influence.
The tip of Xu Wen's chopsticks drew ripples on the surface of the porridge.
In his mind, he reviewed everything that had happened since his rebirth until now. He didn't understand what he had done to affect the fate of a school.
As he was thinking, he suddenly stopped eating.
Xu Wen realized that if there was anything special about his relationship with Gu Hong, there was only one thing.
Because of him, Xia Ning's father Xia Hai appeared in the office on the top floor of Hongjing Industrial.
Perhaps in their previous lives, these two were just nodding acquaintances.
Xia Ning was fine, so Xia Hai naturally had no need to ask Gu Hong for help.
Nor would they say, "Parents who love their children will think long-term for them."
Perhaps it was because of Xia Hai that a road that was originally blocked was opened, which caused the deviation between what is happening now and Xu Wen's memory.
But all of the above are just his guesses for now.
Other than that, he couldn't think of any better explanation.
But no matter what, he felt that there might be many things he didn't know about the relocation of No. 13 Middle School.
Anyway, the water is deep.
When Gu Xingruo saw Xu Wen staring at the porridge in front of him without saying anything, she knew that he was probably thinking about something again, so she simply didn't disturb him.
When I saw his spoon hit his chin, I quickly picked up the tissue to wipe it for him.
Gu Xingruo said with concern: "Eat well first, and think about it after dinner if there is anything."
Xu Wen realized his mistake, took the tissue and nodded.
After dinner, the two men split up.
Xu Wen went to Shancheng to deal with Meituan's affairs, while Gu Xingruo drove to meet Chen Tianbao and told him not to worry for the time being.
Before parting, the eldest lady stood on tiptoe and gently kissed Xu Wen on the face: "I believe you."
Gu Xingruo knew that this time the difficulties would definitely be overcome safely like in the past.
Because they have the magical Xu Wen!
There is a lot of traffic during the morning rush hour.
It was almost ten o'clock in the morning when Xu Wen arrived at the bottom of Shancheng Tower.
Many Shancheng deliverymen wearing yellow clothes have started to get busy.
He took the elevator to his office.
The moment Xu Wen pushed open the glass door of Shancheng headquarters, what greeted him was not the usual aroma of coffee and the sound of keyboard typing, but a suffocating solemnity.
The lights in the office seemed to be a little dimmer than usual. More than 30 employees gathered in twos and threes, talking in low voices with occasional sighs.
The air was filled with tension and anxiety, like the low pressure before a storm.
"Captain! The situation is worse than we expected. This time, Meituan not only launched the 'first order free for new users' program, but also issued 50% off coupons to all old users. The subsidy has been increased." Lan Qiu Sheng walked over quickly, the stack of freshly printed documents in her hand still warm from the printer. Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead and her eyes were bloodshot.
Xu Wen smiled bitterly.
Hearing these familiar words, he felt as if he had returned to the time when he had just graduated.
Because of the takeout war, they basically don’t spend any money when ordering takeout from various restaurants, and each red envelope is very tempting.
He had a very happy time during that time and only hoped that the takeaway war would last as long as possible so that he could eat takeaway every day.
Nowadays, the simplified version of the takeaway war has started early because of him.
It’s a pity that this time he is no longer the one sitting at home ordering takeout, but the protagonist in the takeout war.
Xu Wen took the document and paused slightly when his fingertips touched the edge of the paper.
On the data report, the red mark is as glaring as a wound.
Meituan’s daily order volume in Linjiang area soared within two hours after the subsidy policy was introduced.
"Mr. Xu! The technical department has just made a calculation. Based on this subsidy level, Meituan will have to burn at least 1.8 million every month. This time, their headquarters is determined to squeeze us out of the market." Jia Mingliang poked his head out of the conference room, his face as dark as if he had been painted with gray.
At the water dispenser, Wan Zhi's hand holding the paper cup was shaking slightly. He didn't even notice that the water had overflowed and soaked his cuffs. "The worst thing is that their delivery area has expanded again."
His voice was dry. "Now even our core business district has been covered. This morning, seven partner merchants called to ask if they could open a Meituan takeaway channel."
Xu Wen walked through the noisy office area, and the employees automatically made way for him as if they saw a savior.
He tapped the mouse a few times to pull up the real-time data from the backend of Flash City.
On the curve chart, the growth rate of new users has dropped precipitously, and the repurchase rate curve of old users has also begun to flatten, as if an invisible hand was pressing on its throat.
He looked up at the digital clock hanging on the wall.
It was 10:17 in the morning, just two hours after Meituan released the announcement.
This blitzkrieg came fast and hard.
"Notify all department heads to gather in the conference room in ten minutes." Xu Wen's voice was not loud, and the surroundings instantly became quiet, leaving only the buzzing sound of the air-conditioning vents.
In the large conference room, the projector projected the operational data of Meituan and Shancheng onto the screen.
Xu Wen stood at the front, tapping the solid wooden tabletop rhythmically with his fingertips.
"Meituan thought they could win by spending money, but they forgot one thing." Xu Wen suddenly spoke, his voice calm and composed.
He picked up the remote control to switch slides, and suddenly a screenshot of a bank statement popped up on the screen. The red mark clearly showed the record of the "Meituan Merchant Subsidy Special Fund" being transferred to a private account.
"what is this?"
“Meituan’s subsidy?”
The employees sitting below started talking about it.
"This is one of the evidences I collected. Huang Jiangang, the person in charge of Meituan in Linjiang area, misappropriated 7 million yuan in subsidies. This is just the data from last month." Xu Wen inserted the USB drive into the computer and slid his fingers on the touchpad.
Everyone gasped when they saw it.
Someone sighed quietly, "This is enough to make him suffer."
"Not only that, they tampered with the backend data to deduct riders' wages, falsely reported the number of merchants to obtain funding from the headquarters, and there's also this." Xu Wen pulled up more files.
He clicked on a photo of Huang Jiangang and a young woman in front of a hotel. He said, "Extramarital affairs are none of our business, but this is not in line with the ethics of our society. I think we should take care of it."
Xu Wen's humorous remarks made everyone laugh.
The originally depressing atmosphere was slightly relieved here.
But soon, the conference room became silent again, with only the faint sound of the projector fan turning.
Everyone stared at Xu Wen, waiting for the next instruction.
"The technical department packaged the key evidence and sent it anonymously to Meituan's audit department in three batches, with an interval of two hours. Sister Jiang, please contact the reporter from the media you know and reveal some information to him, but make sure the reporting direction is what we need." His voice was still very calm.
After that, he turned to the person in charge of delivery and said, "You are responsible for spreading the news in the rider group, saying that Meituan will strictly investigate the subsidy issuance issue, with a focus on the part of withholding wages."
The other party's eyes lit up when he heard this: "The riders hate this the most. If the news gets out, there will be an uproar."
Xu Wen finally looked at Jia Mingliang: "How is the 'Taste Buds Algorithm' running now?" Jia Mingliang pushed up his glasses: "The average ordering time of internal test users has been shortened by half, and the conversion rate has increased by at least 30%. There are also some functions that are being tested on a small scale."
"Set the priority of the 'Guess What You Want to Eat' function to the highest level in advance, and the final debugging must be completed tonight." Xu Wen interrupted him.
Jia Mingliang's expression froze.
“Guess What You Want to Eat” is currently only an internal test function pushed to a small number of users, and it was originally planned to be launched next month after testing.
But time is short and the task is heavy, he knows he can't refuse.
Jia Mingliang simply said two words: "Okay."
After Xu Wen arranged the tasks, everyone started to get busy.
At the same time, in the office of Meituan’s headquarters, Lin Tao, head of the Audit Department, stared at the anonymous email he had just received, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
The email did not contain any text description, only a dozen screenshots and attachments.
With trembling hands, he clicked on the first Excel file, which was a detailed list of subsidy payments for last month. The red highlighted part did not match the company's accounts.
"This is impossible." Lin Tao muttered to himself, his fingers tapping out a series of numbers on the calculator. Every time he pressed the equal sign, his face became uglier.
Three minutes later, he stood up suddenly, and the chair made a harsh sound on the floor.
"Xiao Zhang! Immediately block the operating permissions of the financial system! Back up all subsidy payment records!" He suddenly shouted, his voice shrill and broken.
Lin Tao grabbed his coat and ran to the top leader's office.
Lin Tao's voice trembled, and the tablet in his hand almost fell to the ground: "The Audit Department received a report on the subsidy."
The other party had a gloomy expression: "What materials? Who sent them?"
"It's anonymous, but the data is very detailed. The person in charge of the Linjiang branch embezzled a large amount of subsidies." Lin Tao swallowed his saliva and finally said, "The amount is huge."
The lights in Shancheng's technical department were on. Dozens of programmers gathered behind Xu Wen. The four words "Taste Bud Algorithm" on the screen were particularly eye-catching against the dark background.
The code scrolled on the display like a waterfall, and Jia Mingliang's fingers danced on the keyboard, stopping from time to time to debug parameters.
"How are the test data?" Xu Wen asked without turning his head, his eyes fixed on the numbers jumping on the screen.
Jia Mingliang pushed up his glasses and said, "The average ordering time of internal test users has been shortened again, and the conversion rate has increased. The test results in the university area are the best, far ahead of other areas."
"The university area." Xu Wen seemed to be thinking about something.
This result was within his expectations, as young people tend to prefer these novel features.
"It's surprisingly good. College students have the highest acceptance of 'Guess What You Want to Eat', especially female users. They generally have difficulty making choices, and this function hits their pain points." Jia Mingliang called up a set of data.
Xu Wen nodded: "Give priority to allocating server resources to the college area."
After he finished speaking, he looked at his watch and said, "It's four o'clock in the afternoon now. We must complete the online preparations before six o'clock and push the update before the dinner rush."
The sound of keyboard typing could be heard in the technical department.
Xu Wen walked to the window, and the setting sun dyed the city orange.
"Mr. Xu, the reporter replied and said that the headline of tomorrow's economic edition will be left to us, but he asked for more details." Jiang Xiaqing walked over quietly and lowered his voice.
Xu Wen's mouth curled up slightly: "Give him a screenshot of the first three pages of his financial statements. It will be enough to attract attention without alerting the enemy."
After that, he continued to ask: "What's going on with Meituan?"
"I just received the news that Huang Jiangang urgently convened a meeting. He was said to be furious. The Audit Department has moved into the Finance Office and all computers have been sealed." Jiang Xiaqing couldn't help laughing.
She knew a lot of people in Linjiang, so naturally some old friends would tip her off.
Xu Wen nodded, his eyes still calm.
He knew the show was about to begin.
Lan Qiu Sheng is not in school today, and Ding Yue is too lazy to go to the cafeteria to eat.
She and her roommates huddled in the dormitory, using four mobile phones to simultaneously browse food delivery apps.
It was drizzling outside the window, and the humid air was filled with the mixed smell of instant noodles and shampoo.
"Meituan is going crazy today! Spicy hotpot is only nine yuan! And a Coke is given away!" my short-haired roommate yelled while holding up his phone.
"The delivery fee is eight yuan, and look at this store, the price marked on Meituan is cheap, but the last time I ordered, the portion was smaller than that of Shancheng." Ding Yue curled her lips and slid her fingers on the Shancheng APP.
Suddenly, an update notification popped up on the Shancheng APP.
[The new function "Guess what you want to eat" is launched: solve the problem of difficult choices in three seconds].
Ding Yue clicked it curiously, and a colorful dynamic turntable popped up on the screen, with various food pictures spinning rapidly like a kaleidoscope.
"Wow! This is fun!" The roommate came over and the water droplets from her hair dripped onto her shoulders.
Ding Yue clicked the stop button, and the turntable slowly slowed down and finally stopped at "Tomato Beef Udon", which was the restaurant she wanted to eat at yesterday but couldn't find.
Store information and a 15-yuan new customer coupon popped up on the screen, and a 30-second countdown reminder kept flashing.
"This is amazing! I was looking for this place yesterday!" Ding Yue widened his eyes.
She placed the order without hesitation, and the payment process took less than ten seconds.
In less than twenty minutes, the phone rang.
Ding Yue ran downstairs and saw a rider in a Shancheng uniform standing at the dormitory door, holding an intact takeaway bag in his hand, although his shoulders were wet from the rain.
"Hello, this is Shancheng Takeaway. Enjoy your meal." The rider handed over the bag with a smile, turned around and hurried away.
When Ding Yue returned to the dormitory, his roommates immediately surrounded him.
"This is too fast!"
"Meituan shows that it is still in preparation."
Ding Yue slurped the steaming udon noodles and said vaguely, "It's enough to just take advantage of the subsidy. I still have to use Shancheng normally. Look at the quantity. It's much more than Meituan."
The roommates nodded.
It seems that people who graduated from Linda University can better care about these college students.
The editorial office of Linjiang Daily was brightly lit. Zhou Zimin, editor-in-chief of the economics group, stared at the computer screen, his fingers tapping on the desktop.
On the screen was an anonymous email with several screenshots of financial transactions and a blurry video as attachments.
"Old Zhou, is this information reliable?" the editor on duty came over and asked.
Zhou Zimin pushed his reading glasses and said, "The financial data can be verified, and the video needs to be censored, but the basic facts should be fine."
He looked at his watch: "Is the layout ready? It must be published tomorrow."
At the same time, in the rider groups of all sizes in Linjiang City, a message spread like wildfire: "Meituan is going to conduct a strict investigation on the subsidy distribution. I heard that they will deduct the extra money that was previously paid!"
The accompanying picture is a screenshot of a chat, in which a person claiming to be an internal employee of Meituan revealed that the company's audit found that a large amount of subsidies had been misappropriated, and that the riders' wages might have to be deducted to fill the hole.
After all, it was a screenshot of a chat, so everyone had to believe it.
"Bullshit! I work so hard to deliver the orders and yet I still get deducted money?" A rider cursed in a group of 500 people.
"My cousin works in the finance department of Meituan. To be honest, he found millions of problems." Someone echoed.
The group leader quickly came out to put out the fire: "Everyone calm down and wait for official news."
But it was too late. Angry riders had already started forwarding the screenshots, and the news spread exponentially.
The next morning, the headline of the economic edition of Linjiang Daily, "The chaos of subsidies on food delivery platforms: Who is fleecing consumers?", was published.
Although Meituan was not mentioned by name throughout the article, industry insiders can tell at a glance what it is referring to.
Just two hours after the newspaper was put on the shelves, the Weibo topic #外卖附面貼黑幕# topped the trending search list.
At 10 a.m., Meituan headquarters issued a statement saying that it would conduct a "comprehensive audit" of the Linjiang branch and that regional general manager Huang Jiangang would be "temporarily transferred back to headquarters to assist in the investigation."
At this moment in the Shancheng headquarters, Xu Wen was standing in front of the computer, with real-time order data scrolling rapidly.
Jia Mingliang excitedly reported: "In the 12 hours since the launch of 'Guess What You Want To Eat', the opening rate was 91%, and the order conversion rate increased by 35% compared to usual!"
Xu Wen's eyes fell on another set of data.
The average delivery time for Meituan’s subsidized orders has reached 52 minutes, and the complaint rate continues to rise.
The time taken to complete a complaint in Flash City remained stable at 28 minutes, and the complaint rate dropped to the lowest level in history.
After being tense for two days, Xu Wen finally felt a little relaxed.
He managed to pass this level in his own way.
