"The 51 network anchor involved has been detained by the police for 5 days."
"The Internet Office takes action! I will be stationed at 51.com for one month to supervise and rectify problems such as cyan and vulgar content, and guide the development of positive energy."
"Penguin Esports Live takes the lead in playing an exemplary role, promulgating self-discipline standards for live broadcast practitioners, and advocating for peers to abide by them."
"..."
On Weibo, 51.com has been gaining popularity for a long time.
It has been on the hot search list these days and has been severely criticized.
Looking at the black and white website, Lu Fei had a livid face: "If God does evil, you can still live. If you do evil on your own, you can't live."
[Antarctic Goose City] In the group, Lu Huateng, Zeng Liqing and others were gearing up, and they had already been chased and beaten by the "51 Internet Office".
The real business war is to see who makes the mistake first.
If your peers make mistakes, strike hard!
When colleagues are in trouble, they add insult to injury!
"There is no 51 network, which is very important to us."
Lu Fei was holding back his anger and typed on the keyboard: "Tell Ren Yuxin, I don't want the process, I want the results!"
At this moment, Tao Yao's request for instructions came through the landline.
As the CEO of 51.com, Pang Dongsheng hopes to meet him for the sake of being a fellow Shuimu EMBA classmate.
"Let him in."
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes into a thin line.
Obviously, the situation was so bad that he had to seek medical treatment urgently.
He actually found him!
As soon as Pang Dongsheng entered the office, he didn't care about politeness. After a brief greeting, he begged: "Mr. Lu, for the sake of my classmates, please help me!"
"I've done enough to help you."
Lu Fei spread his hands, "From QQ Space to QQ Dance, from the game hall to the live broadcast, 51.com not only copied Penguin's products, but also kept poaching Penguin's people with high salaries. Huateng has always wanted to kill you. If they hadn't considered your classmates,
In the market, considering that social platforms cannot stand alone, can 51.com still develop?"
"The reason why I learn from Penguin and learn how Penguin does business is entirely because I regard you, Mr. Lu, as my entrepreneurial idol!"
Pang Dongsheng humbled himself, repented and flattered, and even burst into tears when he got to the emotional point:
"I often tell people that Mr. Lu is my idol! No matter what, for the sake of being a classmate, let's help my brother again!"
I have never seen such a shameless person.
Lu Fei rolled his eyes, "I can only help you so far. 51.com and Penguin are competitors. If you ask me to help you, doesn't that mean you are helping your enemy? Even if I agree, the Partner Committee will not agree, let alone you guys.
It’s too much to do once.”
"This is all due to my neglect of management."
Pang Dongsheng lacked confidence: "After raising money from Ali, I hired a lot of people. I felt that the team was good and on the right track. I instinctively slacked off and thought that playing golf would be enough. I didn't expect that there would be such a big flaw in supervision.
Can you..."
"Isn't Ali Baba the second largest shareholder of 51.com? Why didn't you go to Lu Yun instead of me?"
Seeing him almost kneeling down to admit his mistake, Lu Fei remained unmoved.
"If Lu Yun were reliable, I wouldn't look for you anymore."
"Lu Yun is unreliable?"
"How can a person who talks big words be trusted?"
"Indeed, no serious person can tell lies."
"Who can speak out what is in his heart!"
"You can only speak from your heart."
"that is!"
Pang Dongsheng stepped on Lu Yun several times.
Facing his expectant eyes, Lu Fei shook his head and said with a smile:
"But I still can't help you with this, but I can give you an idea."
"You say it, you say it!"
Pang Dongsheng seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw.
"I have a general understanding of the equity structure of 51.com."
Lu Fei secretly said: "After many rounds of dilution, in fact, your equity is already below 25%, which is less than Ali Baba. 5 control rights are no longer yours. It's better to just..."
"Sell 51.com to you?" Pang Dongsheng asked.
"How could Penguin acquire its own competing products?"
Lu Fei waved his hand and said: "What I mean is that it is better to sell it quickly before 51.com is still valuable."
"ah?"
Pang Dongsheng thought he had misheard.
"Dongsheng, let me ask you, do you want to be my friend?" Lu Fei smiled: "Or do you want to be my enemy?"
"Of course I am your friend! Who doesn't want to be Mr. Lu's friend!" Pang Dongsheng swallowed his saliva.
"Well, if you say you continue to stay at 51 Network, are you my enemy or my friend?"
Lu Fei showed a harmless smile.
Pang Dongsheng stared, feeling that Mr. Lu was determined to kill.
This competing product of 51.com must be eliminated!
If you want to be decent, help yourself to leave decently.
If you don’t want to look decent, you have to help yourself look decent...
After thinking about it for a while, he said weakly: "I understand, I understand, but if I don't work in 51 Network, what should I do in the future?"
“You can make web games and intermodal platforms.”
Lu Fei directly pointed out a clear path.
These days, Penguin has not only invested in stand-alone game studios, but also in many web game operating companies.
For example, "Three Kingdoms", "Moore Manor"...
Even the Han and Tang dynasties established a game subsidiary, starting with web games, and using the intermodal transportation platform developed by Sogou to make a lot of money, becoming the first group to eat crabs.
"This is good! This is good!"
Pang Dongsheng's eyes lit up instantly.
Listening to your words, it's like clearing the clouds and seeing the mist, and enlightenment comes suddenly.
"If you are still on the 51 Network, if I help you, it will be equivalent to helping the 51 Network, which is siding with the enemy. But if you quit the 51 Network and engage in web games and joint transportation, I will help you in the future, so you don't have to worry about it."
Lu Fei smiled and said, "Do you understand what this means?"
Pang Dongsheng had a wry smile on his face and mixed emotions in his heart.
But when I think about 51.net being in a mess, and then thinking about my own equity, although 51.com was founded by myself, it is no longer its own company. It only has management rights and no control rights.
He cannot escape the blame for the disaster he caused this time.
He might end up being dismissed from his job.
The key is to continue to stay at 51.com, you are Mr. Lu’s enemy!
What will happen if you become Master Lu's enemy...
Thinking about it makes me feel horrified. I weighed the pros and cons and said, "Of course! But give me some time so I can find a buyer for 51.com. Of course, don't worry, I will never sell it to Lu Yun."
"It doesn't matter if you sell it to Lu Yun and let Ali Baba become the controlling shareholder of 51.com." Lu Fei disagreed, "Don't worry about being an enemy. Don't you know its nickname?"
"Chu, nickname?"
"That's right, industry paraquat!"
Lu Fei smiled and said: "As long as it accepts investment from Ali Baba and has a relationship with Luyun, this company will definitely not end well. Like Yahoo, its traffic and technology have been drained by Ali Baba, Deppon, Best and so on.
Express delivery is also half-dead..."
"No wonder! No wonder!"
Pang Dongsheng slapped his thigh continuously, "The live broadcast of 51.com was Lu Yun's bad idea. I said it was a game, but I was asked to do the live broadcast. If you ask me, the blame for this incident on 51.com is Ah Li Daba!"
"Is it really Ah Li Daddy?"
Lu Fei narrowed his eyes.
"It's really true that Lu Yun interferes in management, and laymen guide experts and give blind orders!" Pang Dongsheng said, "If 51 Network did not live broadcast, how could there be a live broadcast accident?"
He said with regret, "Ali Baba is the paraquat in the industry. Oh, why did I find such a pig teammate?"
"It's too late to get rid of it now."
Lu Fei saw through it but didn't say anything.
"Yeah."
Pang Dongsheng was so excited that he abandoned Lu Yun and switched to Lu Fei.
Big brother! Once a big brother, always a big brother!
You do the big one, I do the small one, I will listen to you!
"What if I suggest you sell 51.com to Ali Daba?" Lu Fei raised a mysterious smirk on his lips.
"ah?!"
Pang Dongsheng shuddered, can you please stop playing tricks on me?
………………
On May 22, three days of mourning have passed.
The disaster relief and rescue phase has basically passed. Next comes the huge project of resettling the victims and post-earthquake reconstruction. This will take a long time, but donations of money and materials are still coming in.
By next year, disaster relief donations will total 2.2 billion.
Among them, 7 million Hong Kong people donated more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars.
From listed companies to street bars, from well-known artists to market vendors, everyone is donating money to help. Rich people like Li Huagua and Shao Yifu basically have more than 100 million.
Of course, the one at the top of the queue is Mr. Lu.
Not only money and materials were spent, but also logistics and transportation teams.
Liu Edong's command and dispatch in the disaster area these days, through video promotion and media marketing, not only brought the brand image of Zhongtong and Feigou to a higher level, but also deeply imprinted his personal imprint.
Whether online or offline, no one disrespects the title——
Brother Dong!
After that, it was easy for Lu Fei to hand over the baton.
Liu Edong stayed on the front line for more than half a month and returned to Yanjing in early June. He was even tanner and thinner.
Although his face is haggard, his eyes are firm.
Early in the morning, I knocked on Lu Fei's office to report.
"Didn't I give you three days' leave?"
Lu Fei frowned and said, "Why don't you take more rest?"
"I want to rest, but I just can't."
Liu Edong grinned, "I might as well come."
"Then you should get more rest. June 19th is coming soon. Although the main force this time is Meituan, Feigou and Jingdong cannot relax." Lu Fei rubbed his hands, "I still count on you and Zhang Yong to shoulder the responsibility.
There are three winter support plans, 'Spring Thunder', 'Blast', and 'Warm Winter'!"
"I'm totally fine with that."
Liu Edong rubbed his eyes and said tiredly: "Mr. Lu, I want to discuss post-disaster assistance with you. I wonder if we can help build several children's welfare homes in addition to teaching buildings."
"Of course no problem!"
Lu Fei explained the aid plan one by one.
They even organized medical teams to install prosthetic limbs for injured people.
“Count me in on this one too!”
Liu Edong patted his chest.
"I will leave this matter to my sister-in-law's Ruoran Angel Fund."
Lu Fei smiled and said: "In addition, my eldest brother's Qilixiang has taken the lead and has made an agreement with several Baixiang instant noodle companies. They will build factories locally and they can come to work as long as they are willing."
"Mr. Lu, you are so thoughtful!"
Liu Edong gave a thumbs up.
Pulling people out of the rubble is only half the rescue.
After being disabled, you need to restore your body and mind to the previous level to the maximum extent and return to normal life. This is a complete healing process, and it is almost comprehensive.
"Okay, let's get back to business."
Lu Fei crossed his legs and said, "Although we are doing charity this time without asking for anything in return, just like the SARS year, this June 19th, whether it is Feishou or Meituan, there will be a rush to buy."
Liu Edong solemnly said: "I realized a truth during the disaster relief. As long as you care about the people, they will care about you. I think this shopping festival will not be worse than last year's Double Eleven."
There’s no way we can break the record again.”
"It just so happens, I think so too."
Lu Fei slapped the table, "Meituan's sales last year were about 1.2 billion. This year they have to quadruple and break 3 billion. Otherwise, it will be difficult to overtake Ahri within 5 years."
"I believe that Wang Xing and Huiwen can do it, but it has doubled all of a sudden. Even Ali has not broken 4 billion. What if, I mean what if, Meituan fails to complete it?" Liu Edong cast a meaningful vote.
gaze.
"I don't believe you didn't think of it."
Lu Fei looked at him and smiled knowingly.
There was a hint of shrewdness in Liu Erdong's silly smile: "Hey, although we can't swipe orders or make fakes, we can allocate part of Feigou's traffic and sales to Meituan. After all, the main body of the 'Spring Thunder' plan is Meituan. We
Don’t overdo it. Besides, the June 19th holiday broke last year’s record of RMB 12 billion. What else can Feibuy Jingdong break during this year’s Double Eleven?”
"That's one less possibility."
Lu Fei whispered that "June 19" had set a new record, and it would be even more embarrassing if Fei bought Jingdong and couldn't break it on "Double Eleven".
The two immediately reached a consensus that Feigou Jingdong's sales target this time would be enough to reach more than 8 billion.
After all, only 10 million yuan in subsidies was spent.
"Lu Yun is bleeding heavily this time. He wants to defend his 'June 19 Shopping Festival', but we won't let him get his way."
Lu Fei said in a serious tone: "We just want to tell the world clearly that 619 was founded by Ali Baba, but whoever founded it does not have the same surname, and Meituan is not unacceptable!"
……………………
With the overwhelming "June 19" advertisements from Meituan, Ali Baba, and Feigou.com, netizens' attention was diverted from the 51.com live broadcast scandal, and the pressure of public opinion decreased accordingly.
All the pressure came to Ali Daba.
On June 18, Hangzhou was extremely quiet late at night.
But the building, bright as day, was still bustling with activity.
There was a hint of tension in the atmosphere, and the war was imminent. Lu Yun held a mobilization meeting for all employees and spoke passionately.
"I don't have any requirements for sales figures."
"June 19th is a festival for consumers and businesses. Buy happily and sell happily. It is all about joy and joy. What Ah Li Daddy wants to do today is to make everyone happy!"
"Whoa whoa whoa~"
The applause rang for a while, and everyone returned to their workstations to wait.
Lu Yun appointed Wei Zhe as the frontline commander. He and Cai Chongxin walked side by side to the conference room converted into a lounge. On the table were still warm midnight snacks, egg fried rice, barbecue skewers, crayfish...
"Jack."
Cai Chongxin picked up the mutton skewers and said, "Pang Dongsheng has been looking for a buyer to take over his 51.com shares recently. He has found many people, including Shi Yuzhu, and us, and the price is quite suitable."
"What on earth is Pang Dongsheng thinking! Even if such a big accident happens to 51 Network, will he sell all his shares?"
Lu Yun had a gloomy face.
"He said that he had been starting a business for so long and wanted to enjoy life, but I guess he had inquired or found out that we were joining other shareholders of 51.com to remove him as chairman and CEO at the shareholders' meeting.
, I feel that I will become the next Zhang Zhidong and be kicked out of 51.com."
"Does he deserve to be compared with Zhang Zhidong? If Zhang Zhidong was allowed to manage 51.com like he does New Wolf, he wouldn't have created such a big problem."
"But no matter how you say it, it is a blessing among misfortunes. It will save everyone from being embarrassed by the trouble." Cai Chongxin said with a smile, "The people we send will be able to hand over peacefully and smoothly."
"It's so incompetent that such a good social networking site has been ruined like this by him! What a waste!"
Lu Yun took a bite of egg fried rice.
Cai Chongxin suggested taking the opportunity to eat up Pang Dongsheng's shares.
"Will it consume too much of our current cash reserves?" Lu Yun hesitated. Now is an extraordinary period. To ensure financial health, it means to save Ali Baba's lifeline.
“Don’t we have Yipay!”
Cai Chongxin waved his hand, "We have accumulated funds to ballast the ship. We cannot miss this opportunity. At this time and in this situation, we can completely lower the acquisition price. If Pang Dongsheng is allowed to sell the shares to others, we will completely lose control. 51
Internet opportunities.”
"Then let's talk first."
Lu Yun pondered for a moment and nodded.
After a while, just after midnight, the screen hanging on the wall played the live broadcast of the Ali Baba Shopping Festival.
100 million GMV, takes 2 minutes and 50 seconds.
It’s 1 minute and 01 seconds faster than last year’s Double Eleven.
1 billion GMV, takes 1 hour and 5 minutes.
That's 24 minutes faster than last year.
The less you invest, the more you gain!
Lu Yun was so happy that the egg fried rice in his hand tasted delicious.
I even have the courage to look at the results of Feigou.com and Meituan.
"Jack, I guess we should forget it?"
Cai Chongxin was uneasy.
"I know what you are afraid of. It's okay. I'm used to it. I won't be able to surpass Feigou.com for a while, but I can't be ahead of it. I can't be ahead of Meituan!"
Lu Yun took the remote control and switched the channel to Yanjing TV.
Two rows appeared on the screen. The sales volume of Feigou Jingdong was on the top, which was already heading towards 4 billion.
Below is Meituan, which clearly displays 0.4 billion.
"Hey, what's going on!"
Cai Chongxin's eyes widened and he blurted out.
Lu Yun was also startled. He hurriedly returned to the lychee table and looked at Ali Baba. The total sales of Tao Duoduo——
2.8 billion.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
The two of them could hardly believe their eyes.
Meituan, which obviously missed nearly twice its own sales last year, is on the same starting line as Ahli Baba in just over half a year?
Cheating! It must be cheating!
Cai Chongxin's heart skipped a beat and he glanced at Lu Yun out of the corner of his eye.
Suddenly he felt that the rice in his hand was no longer fragrant.
In anger, he knocked the rice upside down on the table.
