Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 394 Brick List

"They're most likely going public." Having figured out the specific reason, Cheng Yiteng jumped up.

He took out his phone and called Li Xiang, saying, "Li Xiang, send another thousand computers over, yes, immediately!"

Cheng Yi hung up the phone and muttered, "Brother Qiao, you're going to Nasdaq to fleece investors, so it's not too much for me to fleece you a little more, is it?"

If you don't take advantage of a good deal, you're a bastard.

At the very least, shouldn't we earn back the money we promised Luo Shengyi?

Comrade Luo has worked diligently for so long, and he has accumulated all the merits and hard work.

You must keep your promises.

It's just one hundred million.
Compared to his moral integrity, a hundred million is not even worth mentioning!

In the remaining two weeks, grit your teeth and earn another 300 million. Give 100 million to Luo Shengyi, who might escape unscathed, and give the other 200 million to Lin Hua for charity to build schools.

Although Cheng Yi didn't do many good deeds, his thinking was very feudal.

He believed in those illusory things.

For example, you shouldn't shake your legs while sitting, because it's a bad omen that will lead to the squandering of your career and wealth.

For example, unexpected windfalls should not be kept, as keeping them will bring misfortune, and so on.

It can be called superstition or tradition.

As for why it was given to Lin Hua, it was mainly because Lin Hua was strong-willed and could handle unexpected wealth.

Just as Cheng Yi finished planning how to use the huge sum of money, Lin Hua called.

"That Lin Hua is really like a dog. My money hasn't even arrived yet, and he's already come running because he smelled it," Cheng Yi muttered to himself, before quickly answering the phone.

On the other end of the phone, Lin Hua's tone was somewhat low as he asked, "What are you busy with?"

"I've been thinking about you a lot," Cheng Yi chuckled.

"..." Lin Hua fell silent.

Cheng Yi chuckled and said, "I'm not kidding you, I was thinking about you just a few seconds before you called."

Lin Hua was 100% certain that he really hated this guy.

But now he's tied to this guy, so even if he hates him, he has no choice.

Just as Huang Fei said, it would be a miracle if Cheng Yi, this rough and unruly bandit, and his hypocritical and treacherous faction could sit together.

Lin Hua said in a deep voice, "I have something important to discuss with you."

"Go on," Cheng Yi said with a smile. "After you've finished, I'll have something more important to tell you."

Lin Hua said, "I've come up with a solution for your matter with the Beijing Daily. At the end of the month, our Poverty Alleviation Agency will hold an awards ceremony to recognize entrepreneurs across the country who support poverty alleviation. You are one of the main recipients of the award. I will notify you once the date is confirmed. You must make time to come to Beijing."

After Lin Hua finished speaking, he deliberately paused for a few seconds, giving Cheng Yi a chance to say that.

Sure enough, Cheng Yi said, "Oh dear, why do I need your help? I have my own way of handling this."

Lin Hua had witnessed Cheng Yi's demise many times before; he was a typical example of someone who got the benefit but then complained.

Every time Lin Hua finished talking with Cheng Yi, he wondered if someone who cared so much about his reputation was incapable of running a business.

Otherwise, why would the most shameless people have the biggest companies?
Lin Hua said, "Then I'm sorry, I stole your thunder."

"Hey, we're like brothers, right? I'll say it again: don't go after any political career. Come back and work for me, and I'll give you the CEO position at Xiaonei.com Technology, plus a million-dollar annual salary, and I'll make you financially free in three years," Cheng Yi tempted.

He said these words to Lin Hua no less than dozens of times.

Especially during the few days when Lin Hua went to Beijing to take up his post, Cheng Yi buzzed around Lin Hua like a fly.

There's no way around it; he desperately needs someone like Lin Hua.

Ruthless, calm in the face of adversity, and courageous in fighting.

Most importantly, Lin Hua has no heart.

This person is born with all the qualities to become a superior person.

Lin Hua completely ignored Cheng Yi's words and said, "By the way, if you can't let go of your grudges with the Beijing Daily, I can help you resolve them as well."

"No need, no need. I have no grudge against the Beijing Daily. Strictly speaking, they are my benefactors," Cheng Yi quickly said.

He knew Lin Hua's style of doing things all too well.

In the past few months, whenever he did something against his conscience, he would go to Lin Hua and complain for a while. After each complaint, he would feel that Lin Hua was a terrible person and that he was a good person.

Given Lin Hua's style, if he wanted to deal with the Beijing Daily, he would definitely make a fuss about the awards ceremony.

The awards ceremony will be attended by leaders, so if the Beijing Daily makes a mistake at the event, it will be a fatal one.

However, Cheng Yi truly harbors no hatred towards the Beijing Daily. After all, the Beijing Daily was a valuable tool for generating traffic that he had painstakingly found, and it deserved both credit and hard work.

"That's good." Lin Hua didn't want to cause any trouble, and he was quite happy to hear that Cheng Yi wouldn't hold a grudge against the Beijing Daily.

After all, it's quite difficult to outmaneuver a newspaper at a national awards ceremony.

Cheng Yi then asked, "By the way, what kind of award are you planning to give me? Is there any title like 'Top Ten Good People of Handong Province'?"

“You’ll need to ask Handong Province to issue that award to you; ours is a national award,” Lin Hua said. “Your title is National Poverty Alleviation and Charity Pioneer.”

"National Poverty Alleviation and Charity Pioneer?" Cheng Yi pondered the name. Although it didn't sound as good as the "Top Ten Good People of Handong Province," it was still a million times better than his previous title as one of the "Top Ten Villains of the Internet."

Cheng Yi laughed and said, "Send me a copy once the ceremony schedule is finalized. I've never participated in such a high-end event before, and I'm afraid I'll get stage fright."

"..." Lin Hua fell silent again.

Stage fright? This guy gets stage fright?

It's a miracle he wasn't dancing at the event.

"Okay, I'm going to organize the materials now." Lin Hua said and hung up the phone.

"National Poverty Alleviation and Charity Pioneer!" Cheng Yi put away his phone, muttering the title as he looked around the office.

This is the first honorary title he has ever received in his life, and it is of great significance.

"Make a bronze base as tall as a person, then frame the plaque with gold and place it on the bronze base." Cheng Yi's mind flashed through one after another of the appearances that only nouveau riche would like.

Because the real estate market is about to boom in another year, and there will be a constant stream of nouveau riche, and you won't be able to get rid of them all.

To impress and entice them, you need to adopt an appearance that appeals to nouveau riche. In the following days, the national competition for school beauties and hunks finally reached its climax.

Regardless of how many groups were competing during the initial campus auditions, at this stage, all the universities have united.

Under the organization and encouragement of the external relations department, and with the guidance and support of the student union and even the on-campus student affairs office, all universities are doing their best to vote for their school's most beautiful and handsome students.

Not enough votes? Practice with new accounts!
Not enough points? Make a purchase!
Their goal was simple: to make their school's most beautiful girl and most handsome boy win beautifully and lose with dignity.

Along with the surge in votes, Xiaonei.com Technology's daily active users also increased.

Since the start of the National Campus Beauty and Handsome Boy Contest, the daily active users of Xiaonei.com Technology have increased from one million to one and a half million. As a result, Momo Chat has become a hot commodity.

Momo chat was used in the mobilization groups of all external relations departments. In addition, Momo chat far surpassed the most popular QQ chat in terms of both performance and appearance. Therefore, on university campuses, the user base of Momo chat completely crushed that of QQ chat.

Although Momo Chat only has over 500,000 users online, which is significantly less than QQ Chat's 3 million, Momo Chat has a natural advantage that QQ Chat does not.

The real-name registration system binds users to Momo, eliminating the risk of account theft and even creating its own ecosystem.

Momo offers daily sign-in rewards, with higher account levels earning more points each day. It also features interactive elements such as Momo pets and animated avatars.

Using Momo Chat, you can log in to more than a dozen websites such as Xinlang, Souhu, and Lianzhong Games as a third party, saving you the trouble of registering so many accounts.

In short, it's convenient.

If Momo chat weren't unavailable on Windows systems, its online user rate would probably have surpassed QQ chat long ago.

Momo Chat is definitely a killer product for Momo Group. It is because of this product that Lin Qingyin became the second largest shareholder of Momo Group, second only to Du Yusheng.

Compared to the number of registrations and daily active users brought about by this competition, what excites Cheng Yi the most is the sudden surge in Momo Points.

Although Cheng Yi had some contingency plans and considered the uses of Momo points, he never expected that these Momo points would become a kind of hard currency on campus and an indispensable part of university life.

Because Momo points correspond to free internet access time, they are very cautious about the points reward system.

It is precisely because it is rare that it has value.

For services like campus errand running, the reward has dropped to 5 points.

Upon discovering the problem, Cheng Yi immediately instructed the technical department to add a new feature to the school's intranet: a flower function.

Points can be redeemed for flowers, which can then be sent to your crush's personal community on Renren.com.

When a user sends flowers, their profile page will display a beautiful sea of ​​flowers that lasts for one hour.

In addition, a flower ranking list was set up.

The ten users who receive the most flowers can enter the flower ranking and be admired by college students across the country.

To put it bluntly, this campus beauty and hunk contest is about identifying and filling gaps in our qualifications.

Test with 100 people, test with 1,000 people, test with 10,000 people, test with 100,000 people.

The results of this test are completely different from the requirements.

Over the past month and a half, the technical department of the school's intranet has updated more than a dozen functions and modified the version dozens of times.

It's being redesigned almost every day.

This is a process of discovering and solving problems. After a month and a half of modifications and updates, the school's intranet has been completely transformed.

It has all kinds of functions.

On Zhihu, a Chinese Q&A website frequented by senior students, the rewards of points and votes have led to nearly a million entries covering all aspects of university life. You can even find information on which university or which professor is a good person, making it a true campus encyclopedia.

On the other hand, a new prop called "brick" has been added to the voting page of the National Campus Beauty and Handsome Boy Contest.

Bricks are redeemed using votes and points; one vote plus three points can be exchanged for one brick.

If there are school beauties or hunks you don't like, you can use a platform to smash them down.

A brick can knock out two votes.

As soon as the "brick-throwing" feature was released, the most handsome guy at one university was pelted with bricks by students from a neighboring university, resulting in negative votes and his humiliating elimination.

The appearance of the bricks indirectly enhanced the interactive effect of the national competition. A group of idle onlookers always roamed the leaderboard, happily throwing bricks around every day, maximizing their sense of participation.

The biggest victims of this feature are Duan Liang and Jiang Yuxi, who have incurred public outrage.

Countless bricks were thrown at Duan Liang and Jiang Yuxi's personal homepages as if they were free.

Those gamer nerds, instead of making steamed buns, were fighting for their pride and even stopped playing games altogether; all they wanted to do was crush Duan Liang and Jiang Yuxi.

They tried every possible method to get the bricks.

I checked in at the computer lab every day, I checked in on the school's intranet every day, and I ran errands for my classmates every day...

What they didn't know was that there is such a thing as a "backer" in this world.

Whenever they were about to defeat Duan Liang and Jiang Yuxi, Cheng Yi would arrange for people to vote for them.

The two sides engaged in a fierce tug-of-war, going back and forth.

finally:
On October 18, Duan Liang was eliminated.

On October 25, Jiang Yuxi was eliminated.

After Duan Liang and Jiang Yuxi were eliminated, the gamers who had been eager to vent their anger finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They've been so busy lately, spending every day after school playing Legend of Mir, leveling up their accounts and collecting votes, and then running errands to earn points.

They've almost forgotten what their game accounts are.

After playing Legend for half a month, many people have unconsciously become addicted to this wildly popular game.

Compared to games like Magic Baby and Stone Age that they play, this legendary game seems more suitable for men.

Before we knew it, it was October 28th.

On the morning of the 28th, Handong TV issued an announcement.

[Upon investigation by our station, it has been confirmed that Yu Xingze, the intern director of the "Campus Belle and Handsome Guy Forum," deliberately arranged for participating guests to conduct interviews according to pre-prepared scripts in order to attract attention and boost ratings. This has resulted in serious damage to the reputations of the participating guests. Therefore, our station has imposed the following penalties: 1. Effective immediately, Yu Xingze is suspended from all work. 2. An apology has been issued to guests Jiang Yuxi and Duan Liang, and each has been ordered to pay 50,000 yuan in compensation. 3. A self-examination and rectification process will be conducted to prevent similar incidents from recurring.]

The announcement left the gamers, who had been returning to their peaceful lives, completely dumbfounded.

How did things take such a dramatic turn?
Did they insult the wrong person?

Thinking about their attacks on Duan Liang and Jiang Yuxi during this period, these naive gamers felt a little embarrassed.

How can this be remedied?
