The competition, dubbed the ‘battle of micro-enterprises’, continues to be chaotic and intense.
As for Xiao Chengshu, he can basically only deal with it passively.
The outside world is waiting for clear results.
Weibo also worked as quickly as possible to schedule the online "Mid-year Special" event for the evening of the 18th.
Nowadays, various spectators generally believe that the watershed will be divided this night.
Mr. Jia, a group of senior executives and some middle-level managers also think so.
Early in the morning on the 18th, all employees were given chicken blood injections...
The momentum is surging.
"Everyone has worked hard these past few days and has been working hard, but the most difficult days are over!"
"Today is the last level!"
“No need to pay attention to Xiaocheng Book in the future!”
"Mr. Wang has decided to take five consecutive days off during the Dragon Boat Festival, all of which are paid holidays!"
"..."
The ‘traitor group’ created on the 1st was naturally the opposite at times like this.
"I won't say anything else. There are already three days of Dragon Boat Festival holiday, so two extra days are just like a gift? Ta Ma won't have a 6-day weekend off this month!"
"Do you really think that Xiao Chengshu is dead?"
"Xiao Chengshu was just affected by the dirty things that happened, and it's not like he hasn't taken any other actions for such a long time."
No. 1: "Have you not noticed that most people in the company are not in a high mood? There have been few things that have been delayed this week?"
"Brother can understand clearly."
"Tonight's online event was originally planned for Saturday, but it was postponed to today."
"There are still some things that are not implemented properly. Aren't there still people leaking the news online?"
No. 42: "Actually, these are not important. The point is that the current trend has been proving that Xiao Chengshu's call is necessary! Let the entire network believe that the network environment really needs a clearing operation!"
No. 1: "Yes, if tonight's event is successful, it can only be extended for a while. When Xiaocheng Shu recovers, it will continue to decline."
"Brother, are you ready to find a way out?"
"I went to interview with a company during my lunch break two days ago, and I think it was pretty good."
"I heard that the human resources department received a lot of resignation applications, but they were all rejected."
No. 1: “I’m still waiting for the ‘trial’.”
He also submitted his resignation and was one of the many resignation applications that were suppressed and not approved.
Moreover, he knew in his heart that he could not leave Weibo with dignity.
"My eldest brother hasn't made it yet, but it's time to find another way out."
"Yeah, it's time for me to revise my resume."
"..."
The motivation revealed on Weibo is very vain.
Many people are riding donkeys looking for horses.
In fact, the chaos within Weibo has not stopped since the beginning of the month.
Now it shows up even further.
There are endless ways to drag out the process and work hard.
An elegant way of saying it is: when the house leaks, it rains all night.
If Weibo can really regain the daily activity of the platform due to an online event and further improve the platform ecology, then there is still some hope.
However, Weibo's internal employees know that this "crazy" arrangement by the boss has left too many sequelae.
Even after passing this level, there are still many difficulties that cannot be overcome. Maybe the higher-ups will use Weibo, which has created a lot of chaos on the Internet, to serve as a warning to others.
…………
Wen Liang has no exam schedule on the 18th.
At 9 o'clock, Wen Liang left for the company.
His mood was not affected by the biggest hot topic on the Internet, the battle between micro and micro businesses.
Letting a public social platform with more than 300 million users decline is not a simple matter. It is normal for the process to have twists and turns.
but……
He is not in a hurry, but someone is 'in a hurry'.
As soon as the car entered the avenue, Wen Liang's cell phone rang, and the note that jumped on the screen was 'Su Jian'.
As soon as the call was connected, Su Jian's voice came out: "Is the boss at work?"
"On the way."
"It's almost noon, why don't you take it easy?"
"Um."
"I saw online news early in the morning that the winner was about to be decided. How come you don't seem to be stressed?"
"Normal development."
"..."
Listening to Su Jian's nagging, Wen Liang came to his senses.
Sure enough, Su Jian said in the next second: "Would you like to eat soft rice? My mother said that there is an uncle who is promoting it."
Wen Liang laughed: "There is no need to be so concerned about such ordinary and simple business matters."
Su Jian said clearly: "No wonder you are just appealing."
"We are talking about business." Wen Liang said in a relaxed tone, "Even if it requires the power of the system, it is a routine, normal, and compliant business method to participate."
Su Jian responded: "I know, you're a boring old man!"
He added: "I just understood something my grandpa once said, sometimes the simplest solution is often the most complicated."
Hearing this, Wen Liang made a dazzling comment: "When I look at you, you are not as enlightened as Old Li Tou."
Su Jian: "...You have the ability to tell me face to face."
Wen Liang answered quite calmly: "I have no ability."
Su Jian turned around and said, "Okay, I'll finish the exam today, go to my grandpa's house tomorrow and the next two days, and go to Yangcheng the day after tomorrow."
Wen Liang was delighted: "Good fellow, are you going to fool Old Li Tou?"
Su Jian was too lazy to say anything more and hung up the phone immediately.
‘I usually go to my grandpa’s house to live at the end of the semester!’
…………
…………
10 O'Clock.
Bolang's unusual regular meetings are held in the large conference room.
Wen Liang swept across the conference room and spoke calmly: "We are holding a second regular meeting this month because of Weibo. Let's talk about it."
Tang Pu first reported the situation: "The online content review department has 156 people on duty and has been able to cooperate with the platform's public opinion system to maintain regular review of platform content."
"Unify the working time schedule with the operation and maintenance department, and also cooperate with third-party service companies."
The Online Content Review Department is now under the management of the Operations and Maintenance Department.
Whether it is within Bolang or a third-party company, there are now night shift personnel.
Because operation and maintenance has always been guaranteed 24/7.
But the general time schedule is three shifts, 0:00 to 6:00, 6:00 to 16:00, and 16:00 to 24:00.
Everyone thinks that the most comfortable period is the third period.
Fortunately, the previous shift had two full 24-hour breaks, and then it was always the third period.
Of course, with this kind of work system, you have to work on holidays, but if you work on holidays, you will be paid multiple times.
Xindai also reported: "Public relations are working hard to alleviate the ecological crisis of platform content, and have established a normalized content crisis response team."
"Even though we had plans in advance, we were still unable to cope with the situation. This is my responsibility."
Public relations do have a responsibility.
But it’s not a big responsibility.
In a word, manpower is sometimes scarce.
The number of employees previously deployed could handle normal situations, but not this crazy situation.
Even if you use the resources of a third-party service company, it is impossible to prevent it.
Because it is impossible to stop new user registration.
It is also impossible to ban everyone from speaking.
Moreover, Xiaocheng Book not only has a public social module, but also a communication social module, which increases the difficulty.
Li Ze then continued: "We have tried our best from the beginning. The current passive situation is related to our lack of progress in contacting entertainment stars. This aspect is my responsibility."
"I……"
Wen Liang suddenly stretched out his hand to interrupt Li Ze and said directly: "Don't get into the bad habit of admitting your mistakes and taking responsibility as soon as you get up. Whose problem is it and who can escape it?"
Then he said: "Don't you have a solution?"
She was obviously talking about Li Ze, but Xin Dai's expression was very tense.
She knew that Wen Liang's words about bad habits were meant for herself.
Bolang has fewer meetings and less accountability internally.
She was the one who brought this bad guy up.
She also knew that Wen Liang didn't want to hear her admit her mistakes. What she wanted was for her to remember the key points of the problem, formulate a process, and stop rushing around.
Here, Li Ze quickly opened the document: "There are two kinds."
"The first is to give up trying to get entertainment stars to join us and continue to leverage our advantages. Since the launch of the massive value platform, advertising business revenue has improved qualitatively. Weibo is now overdrawing its future and will decline sooner or later."
"The first is to spend money to invite celebrities to settle in."
Wen Liang frowned upon hearing this.
After looking at Li Ze, Wen Liang did not reprimand him in public, but said in a nonchalant manner: "Is that all?"
Facing Wen Liang's gaze, Li Ze replied: "Yes in general, the difference lies in the details."
"Then think about the details." Wen Liang made a gesture.
Then he looked at the crowd: "The purpose of this meeting is Weibo, not Weibo."
"Things have developed so far, and various problems that have been accumulated during the company's rapid development have been exposed. You must come up with practical solutions and don't think about diverting internal attention through external conflicts;
When something happens, why is there still internal chaos? You should seize the time to find the root cause and solve it!"
After saying that, Wen Liang stood up and said, "Don't always patch up Gu Quan."
The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit solid.
Although everyone is not surprised by Wen Liang's ability to get to the bottom of things, they are somewhat silent about it.
Li Xia was the first to respond solemnly: "Understood!"
"..."
Everyone in the meeting responded solemnly.
The meeting ended here.
This is one of the few meetings in Bolang that was specifically held but did not result in a resolution.
The details of the solution were not immediately finalized.
Regarding the battle of 'Xiaowei', Li Ze is right. There are indeed only two directions, and the initiative lies with Xiao Chengshu.
However, even on this small matter, Wen Liang was not satisfied with the plan.
…
As soon as Li Ze left the conference room, he immediately walked into Wen Liang's office next to him.
Looking at Li Ze, Wen Liang asked bluntly: "Is there no other way?"
"It doesn't count." Li Ze simply explained, "The two directions I mentioned are the same, one is slow and the other is fast."
Wen Liang withdrew his gaze, looked out the window, and said slowly: "I am 20 years old now. I like sports cars, yachts, airplanes, luxury watches, and singing every night."
"I can still like you at 30 or even 40, but at 40 my wrinkled face and increasingly bloated body no longer look as charming as they do now at 20."
“I’m talking so much nonsense to tell you that today I can make concessions for Weibo’s decline, but tomorrow I won’t need to.”
"I'm also telling you that today I want to see the decline of Weibo, but I can't wait until tomorrow."
Then, Wen Liang looked at Li Ze: "So, putting aside the matter of entertainment celebrities settling in, don't you have any other ideas?"
Li Ze felt a little ashamed: "Yes, I didn't cooperate with the entry of popular entertainment stars, and the attack on Weibo was not sharp enough."
"It's not advisable to spend money." Wen Liang just said, "If you pay this signing fee today, you will ask for that signing fee tomorrow. If you don't pay it, there will be trouble."
Li Ze understood a little bit: "No wonder Weibo's 200 million incubation fund suddenly made no noise."
He added: "We have no other good solution in a short period of time. The resistance we have encountered in contacting entertainment stars has doubled in recent days, and they are all waiting for a price."
Wen Liang glanced at Li Ze and finally gave him a solution: "Then raise the price."
Li Ze: "?"
Wen Liang just looked at Li Ze steadily, waiting for him to figure out the meaning.
If he were standing in 2016 and beyond, Li Ze would probably understand it instantly.
Because that was the time when a particularly "interesting" and "textbook-level" operation gradually produced a large-scale chain reaction.
That operation is called: raising prices to remove inventory.
Fortunately, Li Ze's brain was still good, and he quickly thought of the beauty of it.
Then Li Ze said one word: "Cow."
…………
That night, Weibo’s ‘Mid-year Special’ event was in full swing.
Weibo provides a variety of ways for netizens to interact with entertainment stars.
Traffic is increasing.
At its peak, the number of simultaneous online users on Weibo exceeded 80 million!
Visit traffic reached 1 billion in a short period of time.
This is a very, very rare scene.
However, this was also Weibo’s last shining moment.
Shortly after the online event on Weibo began, Xiaocheng Book issued an announcement through official channels.
The general idea is:
[In view of the existing network environment, in order to maintain the healthy development of the Xiaocheng Book platform ecology, the Xiaocheng Book certification system will be fully updated;
In order to give every user who needs authentication a better experience, the authentication system will be closed immediately and will reopen at 10 a.m. on the 19th.]
The content of the announcement is not complicated.
Some of the explanations in the supplementary provisions are not complicated, but the content confuses many netizens.
1. Freeze the existing V certification application and continue the process after reopening;
2. For V-certified users who have completed the review, for those who do not meet the requirements for cancellation of certification, as agreed in the terms, the application fee will not be refunded and will not be publicized;
3. Applications for V certification by individuals, celebrities, and industry users who do not meet the qualifications will be rejected. Those who do not meet the qualifications and have real needs must be recommended by V certification users in the same industry and pay special certification fees;
4. V certification from MCN institutions, personal studios and other institutions will be open as appropriate;
5. Arrange one-to-one connection with V-certified users who meet the requirements;
6. Arrange exclusive channels for V-certified users who need cooperation and meet the requirements;
7,…
"What is Xiao Chengshu doing, so weird?"
"Why did the threshold of the certification system suddenly increase so much? Who else would apply for V certification?"
"I don't understand. Is it because of the impact of the Weibo public intellectuals' collective transfer of positions that was revealed before?"
"So, Xiaocheng Shu is panicking? Such a big crisis, Weibo held an event and then it went viral?"
"..."
Disaster: "You haven't discovered the key points. I won't talk about the many things. Just wait and see."
The evening wind is like clouds: "Gao, I can only say that everything is over."
