After the layoffs, I became a tech godfather

Chapter 64: A Chicken to Scare the Monkeys

Not to mention Hao Chengcheng, even Chen Yanwu's first reaction after knowing the orchestra's reaction was to call Wang Cheng a big idiot.

"Yes, we will use the subsidy!" Chen Yanwu said, "A meal is only 3.2 yuan, right? We can save money again! But it's only 1 billion yuan in subsidies, who are we looking down on?"

"Do you think Xiaosha will follow suit?" The shop owner was now completely convinced of Chen Yanwu and asked in a consulting tone.

"What does this have to do with Xiaosha?" Chen Yanwu answered as a matter of course: "Xiaosha is just helping the master to choose high-quality and low-priced goods. Whoever is cheap and good will be bought. Today's band is a good deal, so let's buy it!"

"This seems to be different from the price wars in the past!" The store owner still remembers the time when the band, Chizume, was receiving crazy subsidies. A takeaway meal could even be reduced to a few cents. The two sides kept increasing the prices, and the war became more and more crazy. Later, Chizume couldn't hold on any longer.

"So I say Wang Cheng is a big idiot. Xiaoshali will not pay any attention to his price war. If you give me subsidies, I will buy. If you don't give me subsidies, I will run away. There is no value in it."

Chen Yanwu shook his head. He called Wang Cheng an idiot not just to vent his anger, he was speaking the truth. This man didn't understand the logic at all.

You have to engage in price wars until others can no longer continue, so that you are the only one left. It only makes sense. Will Xiaosha be unable to continue?

You are the platform, Ren Xiaosha is the consumer's assistant AI, representing the consumer himself, and is not on the same level as you. This is a case of sniping and you have identified the wrong target.

"But in this matter, who should the orchestra confront?" Chen Yanwu put himself in Wang Cheng's shoes and thought about this question.

"If we really want to make drastic changes, there are ways." After pondering for a long time, Chen Yanwu came to the following conclusion: "If we still want to use the platform to exploit merchants and riders, then there is really no way.

"But there are ways to make money, by providing high-quality services. For example, by taking advantage of the cost of centralized servers, we can continue to provide services related to product display for listings. This is still a bit of an advantage over meta-services that require self-development and the need to rent or purchase servers for maintenance.

"Another thing is to convert all the riders into formal employees, pay them a basic salary, and pay social security. This is also a resource. Through these high-quality resources, the merchants can accept a service fee of about 5%.

“The price we pay to the platform will be similar to that of making an app or a meta-service ourselves, so there may still be hope.”

……

And at this moment, Hao Cheng was also with He Gang.

The launch conference on November 11 is getting closer, and the Mate26 series has been preheated again and again.

The relevant access plan is also nearing completion, and they are carrying out final debugging and confirmation.

In particular, the resource scheduling optimization related to the real-time analysis of data by the 150 million multi-spectral channel camera is of paramount importance - although the function is good, the power consumption and heat generation are too high when used.

The relevant teams have also been carrying out relevant optimizations.

"I'm here to confirm with you whether you will attend the press conference?" It is Huawei's tradition to invite suppliers or joint design partners to attend press conferences.

"I won't go, but as for the platform, I can recommend you a more suitable person." Hao Cheng said.

"A more suitable person? Who?" He Gang thought for several turns and recalled all the employees of Baiju Technology he had met, but no one was suitable!

"It's so obvious, Xiaosha, isn't it more suitable than me?" Hao Cheng had no plans to show up, but he felt it was appropriate to let a children's robot version of Xiaosha make an appearance.

"The real Xiaosha? The large model robot for children's cognitive assistance?" He Gang was stunned: "Is it ready?"

"It's just a prototype, but the appearance is not important, what's important is the ability." Hao Cheng smiled and said, "You can't say it's a children's education robot.

"How can I put it? It's just ordinary sand. It just enhances the professional ability of children's education. That's all. There's nothing wrong with using it as ordinary sand."

"If that's the case, it's really appropriate for it to be the first to appear on the stage, and it's full of highlights." He Gang said, but he was a little worried that it would be too much of a highlight, so it wouldn't steal the show. But then he thought about it, this thing didn't compete with his own, and they complemented each other. The stronger it is, the more beneficial it is to the promotion of his own Mate70 series, so he didn't hesitate any more and agreed immediately.

"What about the orchestra?" Finally, He Gang stood up and asked casually.

“Death is not a pity!” Hao Cheng still said this, but he added at the end: “The value of a person is reflected through his work and his labor. The value of a platform needs to be reflected through the specific services it provides.

"It's not that the platform can't be built, but the price you charge depends on the service you provide, and it's an equal exchange. If you provide service with your heart, there is still a way out."

Hao Cheng's ideas were even consistent with Chen Yanwu's, and what he said was even almost the same.

But after listening to this, He Gang added: "They provide servers and maintenance, pay the riders a basic salary and social security, and can only charge a 5% service fee. Let's put it this way, you might as well just cut him off, and he will be happier!"

"There's nothing we can do about it. If you want to die, just die!" The services that Hao Cheng mentioned were originally aimed at other platforms.

As for the band? Hao Cheng had never thought of giving it a chance. Normal business competition would be fine, but they used such despicable means. How could they let it survive?

Isn't it just what we need a chicken to serve as a warning to others? Being a model is the best use of it. Otherwise, who can serve as a living example of the concept we want to convey?

"Yeah." He Gang nodded. After so many days of contact, he had a general understanding of Hao Cheng's personality. He was usually very gentle and easy to talk to, unless he met someone who was really blind.

For example, the supermarket before, and the orchestra today.

……

Wang Cheng was very happy. As soon as the subsidies were introduced, the number of orders increased immediately. Even Xiaosha recommended choosing products from his platform.

The other party did not react at all. Compared with the previous price war, Baiju Technology was simply vulnerable.

However, he was not really stupid after all, and he soon realized the problem - as soon as the subsidies were provided, the number of orders increased immediately, and as soon as the subsidies stopped, the customers ran away immediately.

“There’s no point in continuing to subsidize this!” Finally, Wang Cheng woke up from his dream and realized that Xiaosha and the food delivery platform competitors he had encountered before were completely different.

As soon as you hit them, they will retreat immediately, and as soon as you stop, they will come up immediately.

All of this is only possible if consumers completely follow Xiaosha's advice.

Wang Cheng finally understood the first layer and was furious: "Are these people stupid? You just listen to whatever Xiaosha says. Don't you have your own brains?"

He still didn't understand the second level, or rather, he understood it, but still wanted to struggle.

……

A duck knows first when the river water warms in spring; a company’s collapse is known by the stock market.

The stock market is all about expectations. When the expected outcome is death, the result is naturally obvious.

The next day, the capital that had held on for several days finally gave up and stopped rescuing the band, and the orchestra’s Hong Kong stocks collapsed.
