Chapter 479 Rise Up! Momo System!

Scarcity marketing?

Xue Man's blood pressure, which had been slightly lower, spiked again because of Lei Jun's words.

Mi Jing said anxiously from the side, "President Lei, our Chairman Xue has high blood pressure, please don't upset him."

"I'm just telling the truth," Lei Jun said. "If you want to retaliate, you must make an effective counterattack within seven days. After seven days, you will really have no chance."

He drank a cup of tea and said, "That's all I have to say. You should hurry back and discuss your strategy."

Xue Man glared at Lei Jun and said, "Can't you just stop that stupid cheat you're using first?"

"This game modifier really has nothing to do with me." Lei Jun looked at Xue Man with a calm expression and said, "However, I can help you find out who the developer behind it is."

"Hmph!" Xue Man didn't have time to argue with Lei Jun anymore and quickly left Lei Jun's office.

"Sigh!" Lei Jun sighed and shook his head, saying, "It seems the outcome is already decided."

Lei Jun didn't care about winning or losing at Time and Space Internet Cafe, because regardless of whether Time and Space Internet Cafe won or lost, he had already won.

The game "Swordsman Online" reached a peak of 91 concurrent users. Even if the Windows system completely failed in the Chinese internet cafe industry, he could still join the Momo system.

With a peak online user count of 91, they continued to thrive in the Momo system.

As for Time and Space Internet Cafe...

Who will remember a loser?

What defines a successful person?

Successful people are those who always stand on the side of success.

Xue Man rushed back to the group headquarters with Mi Jing and immediately convened an emergency meeting to actively discuss ways to deal with the situation.

Unfortunately, they have no control over the authorized internet cafes. The only management system that can control these internet cafes will become obsolete because these internet cafes have installed the Momo system.

Signing contracts, signing contracts non-stop.

Throughout November, Cheng Yi signed so many contracts he was practically sick of them.

Herd mentality is also one of the characteristics of the Chinese people.

Entrepreneurs who can control their herd mentality have generally achieved financial freedom.

That's how it is with the internet cafes that signed contracts now. The news that the first batch of internet cafe owners had arrived was quickly spread by Cheng Yi through various media outlets.

As soon as they saw someone get there first, the internet cafes that were still watching got anxious.

As a result, plane tickets to Kyoto City are extremely difficult to obtain.

No plane tickets? Then take the train!

If there are no train tickets, then drive there!

Throughout November, even the tourism industry in Jingzhou City was boosted by the signing of the Momo system.

Hotels, scenic spots, and restaurants in Jingzhou City are almost all fully booked.

At first, only a few hundred internet cafe owners brought people to sign up.

Gradually, more and more people joined.

One thousand, five thousand, ten thousand, fifty thousand, one hundred thousand...

According to statistics from the Jingzhou Tourism Department, from November 8th to 28th, in just 20 days, Jingzhou received a total of 570,000 tourists, and the tourism industry generated a revenue of 1.23 million yuan, making the head of the Jingzhou Tourism Department extremely happy.

Despite the entire legal team of Momo Group being mobilized to negotiate the entry agreement with the internet cafe owner who rushed over.

All Cheng Yi did was sign the contract in the end.

Signing nearly 100,000 contracts is something no normal person could do.

Two copies were made, which amounted to over 400,000 words.

Even if you have to squat down to sign every day, you still have to sign for a full ten hours a day.

At this moment, Cheng Yi truly misses the electronic signature from his previous life.

Left with no other choice, Cheng Yi pulled Du Yusheng over again.

The chairman and president signed together, 60,000 copies each!

In this day and age, the security of a paper contract is greatly compromised if it is not signed by the chairman or president.

"Boss, I think I'm seeing things. I don't even recognize my own name anymore," Du Yusheng said, looking aggrieved. "And you only have to sign two characters, but I have to sign three. It's so tough."

"What are you complaining about? How many strokes are in your name? How many strokes are in mine?" Cheng Yi said irritably while signing the document.

Du Yusheng counted the number of strokes in their names and said, "That makes sense. We seem to have the same number of strokes. What a coincidence."

"Shut up and sign it."

"Boss, you've even learned inverted sentences from Teacher Yu." Du Yusheng flattered Cheng Yi.

He and Cheng Yi shared the same desk. After signing for a while, Du Yusheng looked out the floor-to-ceiling window and sighed, "This scene reminds me of when we were in school. Back then, I wanted to copy your homework, but you wouldn't allow it and even hit me."

“If you don’t shut up, I’ll hit you again, you believe me?” Cheng Yi wrote furiously, cursing.

Du Yusheng quickly shut his mouth, took a deep breath, and began to write furiously.

For the past twenty days, Cheng Yi and Du Yusheng have closed themselves off from visitors, handing over all matters of the group to Huang Wenrong, and focusing solely on signing documents.

Once the documents were signed, the secretary immediately took them out and quickly sent them to the legal department for stamping. Then, the contract and installation personnel went to various districts and counties to begin installing and debugging the system.

The entire headquarters of Momo Group was put into high gear because of this incident.

At this moment, the most excited people were not the internet cafe owners, but the game company owners.

They were practically ready to run into the street and set off fireworks.

Although Momo's monopoly on the internet cafe industry meant they had to pay an extra 30% commission, firstly, Momo Group gave them three months of free service, and secondly, compared to bankruptcy, this outcome was already very encouraging.

Just as Momo Group was vigorously promoting its Momo system, the battle between Samsung Group and IBM Group intensified.

Both are multinational corporations worth trillions of dollars, and they have a long-standing feud. One is the maintainer of the business, and the other is the attacker. The sparks of battle between these two behemoths could wipe out even the aftershocks.

The two sides first fought in the Asian market, then gradually spread to the semiconductor business, and then pushed the battlefield from Asia to the Americas.

At first, the major financial groups on Wall Street called on both sides to stop fighting, but how could a few financial groups stop the deep-seated grudges between the two sides? As the fighting went on, both sides wanted to determine a winner.

Whether it's Samsung Group or IBM Group, they are both Wall Street's darlings.

Both sides are my flesh and blood, so it's not right to help either side.

As Samsung Group gradually lost ground, Microsoft and Qualcomm finally couldn't sit still any longer.

As the IT industry's iron triangle, Samsung, Microsoft, and Qualcomm are close partners. Seeing that many of Samsung's businesses had been severely damaged, Microsoft took the lead in joining the fight and began to restrict IBM's software business.

Seeing Microsoft, with a market value of $6000 billion, take such a turn, Intel, with a market value of $4700 billion, couldn't sit still any longer. Although they had been working with Microsoft to make money in the PC market, IBM was their sister company. Could they just watch Microsoft beat up IBM?
This mess has thrown the entire IT industry into turmoil.

This situation also surprised Cheng Yi, the instigator.

He only attacked Ping'an County, so how did he manage to drag the entire northwestern Shanxi region into this mess?
However, this is also a good thing. By setting up defenses as soon as possible, he can protect himself once these giants have finished fighting amongst themselves.

The speed at which Momo's system was installed made many internet cafes realize what true service really meant.

Sign the contract, install, and deliver on the same day.

Until early December, almost all internet cafes in China were using the Momo system.

Although the Momo system lacks office software and office features, it pushes the entertainment aspect to its limits.

The most important thing is security. Momo's system is constantly being updated and vulnerabilities are being patched.

Yu Sen and his team truly treated the Momo system like their own son, not allowing it to have even the slightest flaw.

The highest level of security protection ensures that cheats, Trojans, and plugins have nowhere to hide.

The only downside is that the adult films are no longer available.

Because the browser is also within the scope of security protection.

"141478 internet cafes have used our system, covering 18784521 computers!!!" Inside the Momo system R&D center, Yu Sen looked at the answer sheet in his hand and shouted excitedly.

"These nearly 20 million computers should be able to cover 40 million users, right?" Li Tao also seemed a little excited.

"Forty million? It'll be at least eighty million." Yu Sen laughed loudly. "Go call Liu Guiwu and tell him to come to my office right now. I'm going to give him a good slap in the face."

"Okay!" Li Tao's cheeks flushed with excitement.

Ten years ago, when they had just developed this system, they begged and pleaded with some businesses to use it, but the response they received was always rejection.

As a result, their system never had more than 50,000 users from its inception to its eventual shelving.

But now, they have nearly 40 million users!

"Finally, we have the ability to protect ourselves." Looking at the large pile of documents in the archives, a long-lost smile appeared on Cheng Yi's tired face.

The contracts they signed were basically unfair terms.

The biggest clause is that the system cannot be changed without a valid reason within three years. Changing the system requires permission from Momo Group; otherwise, a penalty of 500,000 yuan will be charged.

These internet cafe owners didn't care about the operating system at all, nor did they intend to change it; they all signed the agreement very readily.

As long as it makes money, who cares about the system?

If I can't make money anymore, what does it matter what system you use? I'll just lead a group to cause trouble and force you to change the system for me.

"Keep only photocopies in the archives. Send the originals to Handong Commercial Bank and store them in a private safe deposit box there," Cheng Yi instructed.

"Okay." Huang Wenrong stood beside Cheng Yi, also quite moved.

Over the past two years, he has witnessed Momo Group grow from a small internet cafe to what it is today.

All the boasts Cheng Yi made to him back then have come true one by one.

During this period, many senior executives of Momo Group have developed a "reflective illness," frequently expressing their feelings and sentiments.

Huang Wenrong has now fallen into the same trap, and he couldn't help but sigh, "Our Momo system has been rolled out, so we can be considered to have gained a foothold in China, right?"

"We haven't truly established a firm foothold yet," Cheng Yi said. "Right now, we can only say that we have the ability to protect ourselves."

"We need a strong tournament to consolidate our current gains," Cheng Yi said. "I've already asked Blizzard to modify StarCraft and Warcraft according to my requirements. Once they've finished, we'll have a tough battle ahead of us."

Cheng Yi turned to look at Huang Wenrong and said, "Old Huang, you've been working really hard lately. Go and relax a bit. You can take your girl on a trip this weekend."

“Okay.” Huang Wenrong smiled immediately.

Cheng Yi looked at Huang Wenrong, who also looked exhausted, and said, "Old Huang, have you ever thought about finding another woman? You're in your prime, and living alone isn't a good thing. Besides, Tongtong needs to be taken care of now."

Huang Wenrong smiled somewhat embarrassedly and said, "Actually, I've thought about it when I'm not busy, but I'm afraid Tongtong will get hurt."

"That won't do," Cheng Yi said earnestly. "If you're willing, I'll act as a matchmaker for you. I guarantee she'll treat Tongtong well."

"Oh?" Huang Wenrong was somewhat intrigued.

Cheng Yi said very seriously, "I have a distant third uncle who passed away from a cerebral thrombosis last year. My third aunt has been single all this time. She is only three years older than you. She is kind and gentle and very good to children. If you think it's a good match, I'll try to set you up."

"Forget it, you should just find someone else to be your third uncle." Huang Wenrong turned and left, as if he had made up his mind, without even looking back.

"Old Huang, pretty young girls are unreliable. Older women know how to care for people. Think about it." Cheng Yi shouted again, unwilling to give up, which made Huang Wenrong walk away even faster.

Watching Huang Wenrong leave, Cheng Yi couldn't help but sigh, thinking to himself: If all else fails, I'll just introduce him to Uncle Gang.

Just as Cheng Yi was lamenting Huang Wenrong's superficiality, Yu Sen called.

"Teacher Yu," Cheng Yi said with a smile, "what advice do you have for me?"

"Thanks, Cheng Yi," Yu Sen said.

Cheng Yi naturally knew what Yu Sen was thanking him for. Now that the crisis was over, Cheng Yi couldn't help but joke and asked, "Which thing are you thanking me for? Finding a top school for your son? Or that villa you were given? Or that million-dollar year-end bonus?"

“You know what I’m thanking you for,” Yu Sen said. “We just discussed that we plan to start developing industrial software. Office software is currently our weakness, and we must find a way to overcome it.”

"Stop, stop, don't mess around." Cheng Yi quickly said, "Teacher Yu, don't get stuck on this. You've already accomplished a great task by maintaining the Momo system. Don't even think about the industrial software."

"Why? Do you think we can't develop it?" Yu Sen said, somewhat annoyed. "What other countries can do, we can do too!"

“I definitely believe you can do it,” Cheng Yi quickly reassured him. “But everyone has their own expertise. We don’t have that much time to waste on industrial software right now. Developing industrial software takes at least ten years. If you get bogged down in this, our Momo system is bound to have problems.”

Yu Sen was silent for a few seconds, then said, "But without industrial software, our system will always be incomplete."

“Nothing is perfect,” Cheng Yi laughed. “Right now, Apple’s system only has office functions and no entertainment functions, so we can work together with them.”
