I can become stronger by paying salaries. I have one billion employees!

Chapter 431 The Tragedy of Car Sharing! 599 Yuan? An Industry Battle Royale is About to Begin!
As dusk fell and the last rays of sunlight faded, the warm breeze lingered.

In the Delta villa area, Chen Yansen lay on a soft couch, his eyes closed in contentment.

The koi in the pond seemed to be swimming uncontrollably.

Song Yuncheng, holding an orange Magicbook, sat in a rattan chair and was busy processing the integrated marketing plan for the major client investment department.

LeEco gave Pinbei 50 million yuan in advertising fees in order to hold a super brand day event. The LeEco X60 and S40 were also priced 5000 yuan cheaper per unit than their launch price.

Of course, to appease previous users, LeEco will announce that the money is an official subsidy from Pinduoduo and has nothing to do with LeEco.

Jia Yaoting's "online TV station" plan requires millions of end users to realize his dream of earning billions of yuan in advertising revenue annually.

Therefore, without Song Yuncheng having to say anything, LeEco proactively lowered prices in hopes of achieving higher sales volumes.

"Master, is Jia Yaoting copying Orange Mobile's marketing strategy by selling TVs so cheaply?"

Song Yuncheng kicked Chen Yansen's shin and asked softly.

“Similar, but not exactly the same,” Chen Yansen replied casually.

He did not explain the deeper reasons.

He felt that if Song Yuncheng could figure things out on his own and solidify the thought process and logic, he could form his own methodology.

He didn't need to break down the answer and feed it to her.

After hearing this, Song Yuncheng did not ask any further questions. Instead, she put down her laptop, her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she looked like she was thinking seriously.

Chen Yansen smiled and lazily turned over.

Compared to Ye Qiuping, Song Yuncheng's IQ and EQ are slightly inferior, but she also has her own advantages: she is diligent and capable!

She went from a sophomore majoring in visual design to the director of major account recruitment for a second e-commerce platform in just two and a half years.

It is evident that although Song Yuncheng was not as good as Ye Qiuping, he was far more outstanding than the vast majority of graduates from the virtual college.

If she weren't quick-witted, even if Chen Yansen had given her the opportunity, she wouldn't have been able to climb to this position.

After all, the managers, team leaders, and even ordinary employees of the major account sales department are all outstanding salespeople from companies like Alibaba, Suning, JD.com, or large advertising agencies.
If Song Yuncheng showed even the slightest sign of cowardice or incompetence, he would be unable to control his subordinates.

Time passed slowly, and after what seemed like an eternity, she finally heard Chen Yansen say, "I'm hungry."

"What do you want to eat?" Song Yuncheng asked, snapping out of her daze.

"Hand-pulled noodles," Chen Yansen ordered.

Song Yuncheng's smile froze, and she shook her head awkwardly.

“Oil-splashed noodles are fine too,” Chen Yansen added.

"Master, I don't know how to make noodles." Song Yuncheng glared at him, knowing that Chen Yansen was doing it on purpose.

"Fine, let's order takeout, it's your treat."

After saying that, Mr. Chen turned over again, his restless posture resembling that of a slender cat.

Song Yuncheng pouted, obediently took out her phone, first ordered a bowl of hand-pulled noodles, then a bowl of oil-splashed noodles, and then added a few side dishes.

She wouldn't be so extravagant when she's alone, but she's always willing to spend money on Chen Yansen.

He bought a Patek Philippe mechanical watch worth over 300,000 yuan without hesitation.

In fact, Chen Yansen had never bought her any expensive items, but she was already content.

She knew in her heart that without Chen Yansen's hands-on guidance, she would not be able to perform her current job, nor would she be able to earn a monthly salary of over 100,000 yuan.

This guy has a bad side, but the good side outweighs the bad.

at the same time.

The three-day battle burned through a total of 200 million yuan in cash. Even though Li Yanhong was not short of money, he couldn't help but feel terrified.

But he's not afraid of burning money, as long as he can gain market share.

Before leaving get off work on June 5, Li Yanhong approved another 6 million yuan in marketing expenses for group buying, food delivery, and ride-hailing businesses.

"After capturing 30% or 40% of the market, we will slowly erode the existing market share of KuaiKuai."

Li Yanhong thought to himself silently.

His strategic plan never wavered.

The Baidu LBS business unit is the group's transformation battle, and we are willing to risk three years' worth of net profit.

the other side.

Wang Zihao led OFO bike core members to recruit and expand their territory in North China, frantically seizing the territory of Didi Bike and Ofo Bike.

But early on June 6, he faced Chang Wei's revenge.

The Beijing Transportation Association issued a rectification notice, requiring OFO electric bicycles to withdraw from the local market within three days.

The reason given is: for public transportation safety and regulatory considerations.

Wang Zihao didn't believe it at all!
He immediately called Yu Heng of Huake Capital and asked him to mediate.

Less than half an hour later, Yu Heng called back and said, "President Wang, to be honest, Huazhong University of Science and Technology can't handle this matter. The higher-ups have given the order, and there's no room for discussion."

"Is it related to Chang Wei?" Wang Zihao asked, his eyes narrowed and his face dark.

"If you ask me, all I can tell you is that it's okay," Yu Heng said calmly.

"Thank you, Mr. Yu. I'll make the arrangements later."

Wang Zihao understood immediately and laughed heartily.

It's okay, or it's okay!

That son of a bitch Chang Wei is a real bastard. He can't win in business competition, so he resorts to these underhanded tricks.

Seeing that Wang Zihao understood the subtext in his words, Yu Heng smiled and hung up the phone.

Compared to Chang Wei's connections and resources, Yu Heng values ​​the development of Senlian Capital more.

Regardless, Chen Yansen is a representative of post-90s young entrepreneurs handpicked by higher authorities.

Given Chang Wei's family background, at most he could secretly trip him up, but if he went too far, he could easily get himself into trouble.

Although Wang Zihao was seething with anger, he knew that no matter how capable he was, he couldn't fight against a single approval document.

Immediately afterwards, he shared the situation in Yanjing with Hu Weiyi and Chen Yansen.

"I understand. Expansion is the priority. Take over the North China market as soon as possible." Chen Yansen didn't say anything, just casually gave a word of advice.

Since the other party doesn't follow the rules, he doesn't need to be too polite.

That afternoon, Ofo's operations in Huian Province were halted by the local market supervision association, which ordered it to either leave Huian or launch a deposit-free service.

Anyone with eyes can see that this is merely Chen Yansen's retaliatory tactic.

Upon receiving the message, Chang Wei's face turned pale and then red. He thought Chen Yansen wouldn't dare to resist, but who knew that the other party was so ruthless and didn't even let the humiliation go unpunished.

With that thought in mind, he coldly pulled out his phone, intending to use the transportation industry to attack Yunsu Express's business. However, to his surprise, his family connections proved ineffective this time.

Zheng Shengyu, the head of the General Postal Association, had his secretary issue a warning: anyone who dared to cause trouble for Yunsu Express was going against him, Zheng Shengyu.

nonsense!

Currently, the daily express delivery volume in China reaches 28 million parcels, with Yunsu accounting for half of it. It has over 100,000 couriers, all of whom are enrolled in social security programs.

The disruption to cloud computing has shaken the entire express delivery industry.

In his view, Chang Wei's behavior was extremely stupid.

Upon seeing this, Cheng Wei felt a surge of anger; he had never seen such an unruly businessman.

For businesspeople, a fair business environment is paramount.

Chang Wei's actions have angered local internet entrepreneurs in Yanjing.

The very next morning, before even a full day had passed, the Yanjing Transportation Association withdrew the rectification notice.

At the same time, the Huian Market Supervision Association also withdrew its requirement for Ofo bikes to waive deposits.

The whole process seemed calm on the surface, but under the cover of it, turbulent waves were surging.

Meng Yuanzhi, Zheng Shengyu, and the people behind Chang Wei went down one after another, but after a brief probing, they withdrew their hands.

Chang Wei was called home and given a severe scolding, after which he immediately became much more restrained.

But he was still not convinced. He stopped his underhanded tactics, but accelerated his expansion in East China, Central China and South China.

Cheng Wei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the two companies had calmed down, fearing that a fight between them would send Didi Bike to its doom.

Fortunately, the storm came quickly and went even faster.

Normally, Chen Yansen and Senlian Capital keep a low profile and appear harmless.

This incident allowed his domestic colleagues to witness his extensive network of connections.

……

……

At 11 a.m. on June 7, a news item about car sharing went viral, because someone found a fresh pile of human feces in the back seat of a Tugo car-sharing vehicle.

Despite feeling nauseous, the user took a photo and posted it online.

Because it was so sensational, it was quickly reposted by major news websites and social media platforms.

"I didn't do it, I was working overtime!"

"It wasn't me, I was ordering takeout."

"I'm sorry, I just couldn't hold it in that day."

"Hey bro upstairs, are you serious?"

"Imagine you have diarrhea, and a flood is about to break out. Suddenly you see a shared car, scan the code, open the door, close the door, and the four seats inside look more and more like four toilets. So I ask you, do you poop in your pants or in the car?"

"If it wasn't you, buddy, did you really do it? You're disgusting!"

"Tugo Car Sharing: Give me peanuts!"

"The first portable toilet for young people!"

In just half an hour, the netizen who revealed that he released himself in the car gained 50,000 to 60,000 Weibo followers.

Although most netizens did not believe it, thinking he was just playing with abstract concepts.

Ten minutes later, this person posted another Douyin video link, which was then shared by tens of thousands of netizens.

"Dude, you're awesome! That's really impressive!"

"Warning! This video has a strong odor; watch with caution!"

"I don't believe he'd actually do it!"

This Douyin video quickly went viral!

In reality, it wasn't this blogger who defecated on the Tugo shared car, but he was quick-witted and immediately sensed a business opportunity.

He not only changed his Weibo nickname to "Poop Bro," but also found a scrapped old car and filmed a video of himself pooping in a "shared car."

To avoid being sued by Tugo, he specifically added a note in the upper left corner of the video stating "For the sake of the plot, there was no real sex."

But netizens didn't care about any of that and kept tagging the official Tugo account.

When Wang Fengli, CEO of Tugo Car Sharing, saw the Weibo post, he was stunned. Without hesitation, he immediately called the company's legal department and sent a lawyer's letter to the other party.

He knew that if users were given the impression that "Tugo is a mobile public toilet," the product would be doomed.

And this bastard is even filming videos to mislead others.

Eight hours later, "Poop Bro" gained 11 followers on Weibo and more than 17 followers on Douyin.

Seeing that it was profitable, many people followed suit. The smarter ones found a wrecked car, while the less intelligent ones actually scanned a Tugo shared car and climbed in.

Suddenly, the style of Douyin short videos changed.

After careful consideration, the director of the content moderation department did not impose a blanket ban, but only removed some of the original videos while retaining most of the related videos.

During this period, Douyin gained more than 60 new customers.

They became the biggest beneficiaries of this turmoil!
The following morning, June 8th, the Qingcheng D2 SE version quietly appeared on the homepage of Orange Mall and Pinduoduo's 6 Billion Subsidy program without any prior announcement.

It features a 4.5-inch IPS touchscreen, a MediaTek dual-core 1.3GHz processor, 512MB RAM and 4GB ROM, a 130-megapixel front camera, a 500-megapixel rear camera, a 1500mAh removable battery, and runs on the Aurora Future OS system.

It features a single speaker, a Micro-USB port, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and no gyroscope or light sensor.

The system has been significantly streamlined, and a senior mode has been added (which can enlarge the font and simplify the desktop).

The drawbacks are obvious: the camera lacks autofocus, uses only a basic CMOS sensor, and the screen resolution is not high.

But it only costs 599 yuan!
Free shipping!

The page displays a pre-order link, with the earliest shipping time being one week later. It is available in black and white.

Many netizens went to Wang Teng's Weibo to ask questions.

"Son, is this phone any good?"

"Tell me honestly, is this a counterfeit Orange D1?"

"599 yuan is too expensive, let's lower it by another 100 yuan! Mr. Wang, I'm a college student."

A short while later, Wang Teng officially replied: "See you tomorrow at 10 a.m. on Tencent, Youku, and YY live streams. In addition to the Qingcheng D2 SE, I'd also like to introduce a new product to everyone."

When Lu Hongbo found out, he panicked on the spot!
