The investor next to him was glued to the screen: "It's still going up! The orders haven't stopped!"

"Eight million people were simultaneously buying in the live stream; offline stores could never achieve that scale!"

In just three minutes, orders exceeded 400,000 and sales exceeded 160 million!

Although Zhao Licheng did not attend the banquet, he was watching the same data through the Anta headquarters backend.

The dozens of managers in the conference room all stood up.

The person in charge of inventory said in a trembling voice, "Mr. Zhao, the first batch of inventory is almost sold out!"

"Additional!"

Zhao Licheng slammed his fist on the table: "Use all available inventory immediately!"

"The factory is ramping up production! The logistics department is operating at peak responsiveness!"

The Anta headquarters was in complete chaos.

Inside the Tianning Hotel, however, it was so quiet it was almost suffocating.

Everyone who had just asserted that Douyin couldn't be monetized was now staring intently at the big screen.

"impossible……"

"How could a few T-shirts sell out so quickly?"

"These orders must be fake."

"Shen Ze must have spent money to inflate his sales figures!"

An e-commerce boss next to him immediately shook his head: "Eight million real-time viewers and hundreds of thousands of orders are not an exaggeration."

"Moreover, Antara is a mature brand with a complete pricing system offline."

"With the price halved during the live stream and Andy Lau personally recommending it, it's normal for the conversion rate to be high."

In just four minutes, orders exceeded 700,000 and sales reached 280 million!

The 200 million target agreed upon with Anta was easily crushed underfoot.

Wang Xiaolong stood at Douxin's headquarters, gripping the edge of the table tightly with both hands: "How's the server load?"

The technical lead, sweating profusely, exclaimed, "It's still under control! The payment system hasn't crashed! Orders continue to rise!"

"The data will be available in five minutes!"

The countdown ticks away second by second.

Throughout the entire Douxin headquarters, the entire Anta conference room, and the Tianning Hotel banquet hall, everyone was staring at the numbers on the screen.

Arrived in five minutes, the number of orders reached 930,000.

Real-time sales have exceeded 400 million!

Inside the banquet hall, everyone was speechless, stunned by the numbers on the big screen.

This sales speed completely exceeded their understanding of business.

Offline stores need to select locations, decorate, and set up shops, and also bear the pressure of labor, rent, and inventory.

Even a well-run store may not be able to achieve 400 million in sales in a year.

But Andy Lau only introduced a T-shirt in the live broadcast room, and 930,000 pieces were sold in five minutes!

The people who had just asserted that the orders were fake all fell silent.

Because the number of orders hasn't stopped.

Ten minutes later, sales exceeded 500 million!

A clothing industry owner, breathing heavily, exclaimed, "All my stores combined don't sell this many T-shirts in a year!"

The investor next to him gripped his wine glass tightly: "Douyin has brought together consumers from all over the country into one live streaming room."

"First, attract eight million people with Andy Lau's name, then stimulate orders through celebrity endorsement, brand discounts, and limited-time stock – that's the real way to monetize traffic!"

Another person chimed in: "What's even scarier is that Douyin can push products based on user preferences."

"The platform can sell the most suitable products to the people who need them most!"

Only at this moment did everyone truly understand why Shen Ze had dared to spend 1.5 billion to acquire users.

That's not just burning money!

Every user is a potential consumer.

Every view can be converted into a real order.

What Douxin holds in its hands is not just traffic, but a sales channel that is capable of changing the retail industry!

Yu Yehua stared at the ever-increasing transaction volume and couldn't help but sincerely exclaim, "Xiao Shen, your business acumen is at least several years ahead of the market."

"While we're still figuring out how to make money from Google and memberships, you've already integrated short videos, live streaming, celebrities, brands, and e-commerce."

"No wonder you dared to invest 1.5 billion at once."

"As long as this model works, we can make back the investment, not just 1.5 billion, but even if we invest another 1.5 billion!"

Shen Ze held his wine glass, his expression remaining calm: "This is only the first round."

A simple sentence sent chills down the spines of several wealthy people around him.

Four hundred million in five minutes, more than five hundred million in ten minutes.

This is only the first game!

With more celebrities, internet celebrities, and brands joining the platform, how much sales can Douyin generate every day?

A billion? Several billion? Or even tens of billions?

An e-commerce investor lowered his voice: "Live-streaming e-commerce is very likely to be a trillion-dollar industry."

"Douyin has already secured its first batch of users, streamers, and brands, and it will be the leader in this field."

Another tycoon immediately nodded: "Traditional e-commerce platforms that want to replicate this model will also need to rebuild their short video ecosystem and live streaming system."

"But the first-mover advantage of Douyin is too great."

"As long as we continue to expand our user base, breaking the 100 billion mark in market value in the future is not a problem at all!"

Sun Mei stood at the back of the crowd, her face completely drained of color.

Just over ten minutes ago, she was eagerly anticipating Shen Ze's crushing defeat.

She had even planned that after Andy Lau's live stream ended, she would tell Shen Ze in front of everyone that she was the one who personally delivered this loss-making platform.

She wanted to make Shen Ze understand what the consequences would be for going against the Shen family.

But now, 1.23 million orders and over 500 million in sales are like two slaps to her face.

Wang Xiaolong was someone she introduced to Shen Ze.

Dou Xin was someone she personally pushed in front of Shen Ze.

If Jianjun Group had acquired Douxin back then, they would be the ones controlling the live-streaming e-commerce gateway now!

Jianjun Group can not only solve its financial crisis, but also complete its transformation by leveraging this trillion-dollar industry.

But she deliberately turned a promising project with a potential value of hundreds of billions into a trap that would drag Shen Ze down, and handed it over willingly!

"How could this happen..."

Sun Mei's lips trembled: "How could a platform that sells videos possibly generate 500 million in just ten minutes?"

"It's fake, there's definitely something wrong with these data..."

Her voice grew softer and softer, and among the many entrepreneurs, investors, and e-commerce practitioners present, no one echoed her anymore.

Shen Jianjun turned around abruptly, his face ashen: "This is all your doing!"

Sun Mei froze: "Jianjun..."

"If you hadn't kept urging me to refuse to dance, why would I have kicked Wang Xiaolong out?"

Shen Jianjun's voice grew louder and louder: "You're the one who said Douxin loses 40 million every month, that it's a bottomless pit!"

"You were the one who said that introducing Wang Xiaolong to Shen Ze would make him lose billions!"

"And now? Five hundred million in sales in ten minutes! This should have been Jianjun Group's chance to turn things around!"

The surrounding guests all looked over.

Sun Mei's face burned: "Back then, you also thought this project wouldn't make money."

"You dare to push this on me?"

Shen Jianjun angrily retorted, "If you hadn't repeatedly called Wang Xiaolong a fraud and said that anyone who voted for Douxin would be doomed, I would at least have had someone reassess the situation!"

"Jianjun Group is currently burdened with 6.9 billion yuan in loans, and 15 sand pits have not yet been put into operation."

"A single live stream on Douyin generated 500 million yuan in sales in just ten minutes!"

"Such a great project, and you! You personally gave it to Shen Ze!"
