Reborn in 08, Public Enemy of Competitors

After finalizing all the details of the cooperation, Shen Mo immediately called Lin Qingyan and the others over.

"If there are no objections to the contract terms, please sign them."

Shen Mo and Huang Zheng sat facing each other, exchanged a glance, signed the agreement, and then exchanged documents.

In an instant, a round of enthusiastic applause rang out in the conference room.

"Next, I'll have to ask Mr. Shen for his help. I hope Ouku.com can catch up with Jingdong as soon as possible."

Huang Zheng said sincerely.

"No problem, Mr. Huang."

Shen Mo smiled confidently, "This Double Eleven promotion, only Ouku.com is an e-commerce platform that mainly sells 3C digital products. We will tailor a series of targeted promotional activities to help you make a splash."

Huang Zheng thanked him sincerely, and then left with his legal team.

Lin Qingyan watched Huang Zheng and the others walk away, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Your development speed is too fast, there's a big change almost every day, I can hardly keep up with your pace."

"Sister Qingyan, you'll have to come again in a few days."

Shen Mo said in a relaxed tone.

"Who are you going to sign with this time?" Lin Qingyan was taken aback.

Shen Mo smiled slightly, "People from Tencent's Internet business system are coming over."

Lin Qingyan opened her mouth, but seeing that he had no intention of continuing, she suppressed all her doubts.

Shen Mo clapped his hands, looked around at everyone, and said, "When I founded YiTao GO, I set a small goal."

"By the end of the year, we aim to have over 10 million total users, over 1000 daily active users, and over 1000 million in monthly sales."

"Now, the last two goals have been achieved ahead of schedule, and only the last one, reaching 1000 million total users, remains."

"This time, we want to make good use of Double Eleven, so I'm preparing to launch new initiatives to attract new customers and stimulate consumption."

"Brother Mo, what's your plan now?"

Yuan Hua's eyes lit up.

"First, in addition to the flash sale group, we will launch the 'lucky draw group' activity during the Double Eleven pre-sale and promotion period."

Shen Mo said, "We'll use all the products offered by the merchants participating in this Double Eleven as prizes for flash sales and lucky draws. After users join, small prizes will be drawn every 3 hours, and big prizes every 6 hours, constantly stimulating both new and old users to continue participating."

Zhong Xue nodded repeatedly, carefully taking notes in her notebook.

"Secondly, based on the tiered group buying model, we will create a super group buying model to concentrate resources on creating blockbuster products for merchants during Double Eleven."

"Third, make good use of those individual website owners and group leaders, create a leaderboard, and the more people a group leader invites to join a group, the higher their ranking will be, and the more generous the material and cash rewards they will receive. Use incentives to drive them to frantically recruit new users..."

Lin Qingyan was greatly shocked and secretly made a plan in her mind.

Instead of only taking on external legal counsel business from YiTaoGO, why not simply join them and become a member of the legal department?

The reason she returned to Hangzhou with her Master of Laws degree from Aurora University is because her first degree was neither from one of the top five law schools or a 985 university, making it impossible for her to join a top-tier law firm or a leading firm.

Therefore, it is better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond, which is why he joined Zehou Law Firm, which is affiliated with his alma mater.

But if YiTaoGO can truly rise to prominence as Shen Mo predicted, its future prospects will definitely be no less than those of top law firm partners.

At this moment, Shen Mo changed the subject: "In addition, we will also cooperate with Tencent to promote YiTaoGO through social e-commerce using QQ and QQ Zone."

"Brother Mo, we know how to use QQ, but how do we set up QQ Space?"

Wang Yun'an couldn't help but ask curiously.

Zhong Xue reacted quickly, "It's probably related to that mysterious studio downstairs, right?"

Shen Mo nodded, "We designed a social game specifically for QQ Space, which can drive traffic to our YiTaoGO."

"A game? What game?"

Xu Kun, Zhuang Bifan, and others whispered among themselves, discussing the matter.

"This game is called 'Everyday Farm,' and it will be in internal testing soon. Everyone in the company will be involved."

Shen Mo's expression turned serious. "However, before that, everyone must sign a confidentiality agreement, strictly prohibiting any disclosure. Do you all understand?"

"clear!"

Everyone responded in unison, but their curiosity only grew stronger.

What exactly is "Everyday Farm" that makes Shen Mo so cautious?

………………

Xu Kun, Zhuang Bifan, Zhong Xue, and others couldn't understand it, and the penguin delegation that went to Hangzhou couldn't understand it either.

In particular, Lin Qingsong, the head of the QQ Space team, had a furrowed brow the whole way.

Lin Qingsong couldn't help but speak up, "President Wu, is it really necessary for us to make such a fuss?"

Wu Xiaoguang turned his head. "What, do you have a problem with Pony and my decision?"

"Mr. Wu, that's not what I meant."

Lin Qingsong quickly explained, "I just feel that Shen Mo's tone is a bit too arrogant. Can a single social web game really help QQ Space turn things around?"

"I don't know if we can turn things around, but if QQ Space doesn't try again, it will fall behind completely."

Wu Xiaoguang said in a heavy tone, "You should have heard that 51.com has secured 5000 million yuan in funding, and Xiaonei.com has also received investment from SoftBank, right?"

"I...I've heard about it..."

Lin Qingsong was somewhat speechless.

"So what about your actions? What about your counterattack?"

Wu Xiaoguang rebuked, "Are we just going to stand by and watch QQ Space gradually become marginalized in its competition with 51.com and Xiaonei.com?"

"Mr. Wu, that's not what I meant..."

"Since you are all incompetent, I have no choice but to step in myself and save QQ Space."

Wu Xiaoguang said coldly, "Shen Mo's proposed social e-commerce can help both Paipai.com and QQ Space, so it's worth a try."

While feeling unhappy, Lin Qingsong couldn't help but have some doubts.

However, after seeing "Everyday Farm" with my own eyes and trying it out, all my doubts and unhappiness vanished instantly.

Although the UI looks childish and simple, and the gameplay is just planting, stealing, weeding, and watering, it has a kind of magic that makes people unable to stop playing. Lin Qingsong only tried it for a few minutes before he couldn't help but open his friends list and steal a piece of land from his colleague next to him.

"We've tested 'Everyday Farm' internally, and the data is fantastic."

Seeing this, Shen Mo knew the time was right. "Mr. Wu, what do you think?"

Wu Xiaoguang took a deep breath: "If we want an exclusive partnership with Zhangle, what kind of conditions would we need?"

"The conditions are not complicated."

Shen Mo said, "We'll develop the game, Tencent will provide the servers, and according to current industry practice, the revenue will be split 50/50 between the distribution channels and the development team. What do you think, Mr. Wu?"

Wu Xiaoguang raised an eyebrow slightly. "President Shen really has a well-thought-out plan."

"Yes, the server cost is a major expense!"

Lin Qingsong couldn't help but interject, "Other game companies all have their own servers."

"That's exactly why I'm willing to share with the penguins like this."

Shen Mo pursed his lips. "Otherwise, it wouldn't be 50/50, but 70/30."

Lin Qingsong was speechless. Shen Mo was far too arrogant! He actually dared to split the profits with the penguin 50/50!

"Mr. Wu, what your QQ Space needs most is not servers, but good games and more users."

Shen Mo stated bluntly, "FarmDay can bring huge user activity and dwell time. Moreover, don't you think that while waiting to plant and steal crops, it's the perfect opportunity to promote social e-commerce content?"

Wu Xiaoguang was silent for a moment before slowly speaking: "I need to report this matter to Pony before I can decide whether to split the profits 50/50."

"Then you'd better hurry."

Shen Mo said calmly, "This is an excellent opportunity for QQ Space to defeat 51.com and Xiaonei.com. Of course, we won't force it. If it really doesn't work out, we'll cooperate with Xiaonei.com."

Wu Xiaoguang raised an eyebrow. Ever since Tencent went public, it has always been Tencent that bullies others, and no one has ever dared to threaten Tencent!

"Mr. Wu, please pass on a message to Pony for me."

Shen Mo said, "Sometimes, choice is more important than effort; if you're going in the wrong direction, all your efforts will be in vain."

Zhong Xue, Yuan Hua, and the others stared intently at his profile, their hearts skipping a beat. Holy crap, how could someone be so bold?
