"Mr. Lu, everything has been arranged. The net can be closed at any time, just waiting for your order."
You can hear Sun Hongjun's eagerness through the phone.
"Is HTC ready?"
Lu Fei sat in the yard, admiring the bleak autumn scenery.
"Everything is ready."
Sun Hongjun reported truthfully: "Samsung Pengtai usually hires college students as temporary workers. Each person plays multiple roles, asks and answers questions, promotes Samsung, and attacks HTC, Logic and Apple on the external and internal networks. HTC hired hackers before. By the way,
Using the IP, I locked a few students, and this time I deliberately placed an order in the name of 'Samsung Hongtai' and asked them to act and write and direct this dark drama."
After a pause, "Next, the hacker will break the news on major websites and forums in Baodao, exposing Samsung's ugly face!"
"Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter will follow up as soon as possible."
Lu Fei said with satisfaction: "But in addition to the Internet, we must also pay attention to linking up with traditional media such as newspapers and TV stations in Baodao. It is best to find some 'famous mouthpieces' to criticize."
"Hey, you and Mr. Wang want to go together. Thanks to you, Zhongshi Group has promised to cooperate when the time comes."
There was a hint of joy in Sun Hongjun's words.
Without the support of Mr. Lu and Wang Xuehong, Want Want Group would not have been able to capture Zhongshi, a major publicity center.
“How is Samsung’s evidence collection against Logic?”
Lu Fei crossed his legs and swayed slightly.
"It's enough. I'm just waiting for HTC to launch the first shot."
Sun Hongjun is eager to try.
"You are here in the mainland, and Wang Xuehong is there in Wanwan. I feel relieved when you respond to each other from afar."
Lu Fei made up his mind, "Just this Saturday."
Sun Hongjun said excitedly: "Now our first set for Samsung is done."
"It's too early to be happy. This is just foreplay. The real drama is after Double Eleven." Lu Fei said with a smirk on his lips.
On the Saturday when the two agreed, an anonymous hacker broke the news on the Wanwan Samsung Leaks website.
Samsung's largest consumer electronics forum in Baodao, mobile01, engages in malicious marketing. It not only breaks the news, but also provides pictures and texts, and is well-founded and conclusive.
In an instant, it attracted onlookers.
Zhongtian TV's "News Tornado" program immediately reported the scandal, making the scandal public and causing the hacker's anonymous posts to soar in popularity.
Samsung and Samsung Pentium were immediately in the eye of the storm of public opinion. They could not escape and could only evade the matter by saying that they were "under investigation."
But netizens and the media did not buy this answer.
Netizens began to analyze the details of Samsung's operation of trolls based on "black materials" constantly exposed from the Wawan Samsung Leaks website. After much discussion, they couldn't suppress the popularity even if they wanted to.
It immediately overflowed into major forums and platforms, including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, PTT forums, etc., and spread like wildfire.
Naturally, television, newspapers and other media cannot let Zhongshi Group monopolize this traffic and rush to report on it.
Suddenly, Samsung and Samsung Pengtai were pushed to the forefront. In the face of numerous facts and evidence, Samsung Pengtai was the first to be unable to withstand the pressure and admitted that "it was all done by temporary workers."
As the biggest victim, HTC immediately brought the matter to the Fair Trade Commission. After receiving relevant complaints, the relevant departments opened a case and launched an investigation into Samsung and Samsung Hongtai.
At the same time, on the other side of the country, China also exposed the scandal of Samsung hiring cyber trolls to slander its competitors.
Although it is not clearly specified which one it is, the picture is very interesting, and a logical retail store appears.
After digging deeper, netizens found out that this retail store was actually in Germany, and the truth was revealed bit by bit.
It turned out that Samsung cooperated with local marketing intermediaries and hired a large number of trolls to hold protests at Logic's retail stores, mocking those who bought Logic as sleeping, holding up slogans and shouting in unison, "Wake up! Wake up! Wake up!"
Wake up! Wake up!”
There is no doubt that any discerning person will know that the logic has been wronged.
The public opinion offensive was extremely fierce, and many netizens spontaneously went to Samsung's official Weibo and Facebook accounts to speak out.
In the comment area, "Wake up" was written everywhere.
Others simply @relevant departments directly to support their logic and even alert the Cyberspace Administration of China and other relevant departments.
As the incident unfolded, it seemed that Samsung could not withstand the pressure. It issued a statement on its official accounts on Facebook and Weibo, saying, "We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by this incident." "Samsung has stopped all online marketing similar to this."
Behavior"……
It is tantamount to admitting the fact of hiring cyber trolls.
However, these posts were deleted shortly after they were posted.
"idiot!"
"idiot!"
In the office, Lee Jae-yong received the news and was so angry that he threw his cup on the ground and yelled: "Fire, fire all the employees who are in charge of this account!"
As if his anger wasn't enough, he slammed the table and said, "Fire all their superiors! A bunch of idiots!"
"We have conducted an internal investigation and there are many doubts, especially since the employee claimed that he had not sent these things."
There was a hint of doubt in Cui Zhicheng's tone.
"If not him, who else!"
Lee Jae-yong's eyes were filled with anger: "It's a complete lie! It's a complete excuse. Why didn't he just say that Zuckerberg asked Facebook to directly invade our account backend!"
"Well, maybe it was done by hackers. You know, the first person who reported Samsung's malicious marketing was an anonymous hacker."
Cui Zhicheng was very helpless.
"I don't care so much. Whoever gets into trouble will be responsible. If you can't even manage a few accounts, you should sink him into the Han River to feed the fish."
Lee Jae-yong's chest was heaving, "To do this is tantamount to asking for trouble, and it completely blocks our room for mediation."
Cui Zhicheng sighed, "Thanks to Third Miss controlling Line, at least within the scope covered by Line, the heat and impact of this matter can be minimized."
"Huh, it's her duty to do this. The family has raised her so well and supported her career so much, so it's natural that she should give back to the family." Lee Jae-yong felt both fearful and jealous.
"This... President, you are right."
Cui Zhicheng, as a confidant and hardcore, has no objections.
"Wanwan's Fair Trade Commission is going to file a case and handle it. What will be the final result? Is it possible to issue a restraining order against Samsung like in the United States?"
Li Zaiyong's face darkened.
"That's not a big deal, I've already consulted a lawyer."
Cui Zhicheng showed a relaxed smile, "Samsung is just belittling its competitors on the Internet and maliciously promoting its own products. Even if the situation is true, it will only fine us and Hongtai, the advertiser, and the cap is only US$50,000."
"fine?"
Li Zaiyong immediately breathed a sigh of relief. If it was a fine, it wouldn't matter. Anyway, this was not the first time he had been fined by Baodao. In the first half of the year, he was fined NT$300,000 for false publicity, which was only a few dollars.
It’s only about a hundred dollars.
"That's good, that's good. Just a fine is not a big deal. What about mainland China? Are there also fines?"
His attention immediately focused on the more important mainland market.
"It is estimated that the punishment results will be similar, but the punishment may be a little more." Cui Zhicheng paused, "But the premise is that Lu Fei does not intervene, and you also know the energy he has."
"To see what his attitude is, just look at Lu Fei's reaction to Feigou, Meituan, Jingdong, and Samsung." Lee Jae-yong stared at him.
"No, the three companies are still actively cooperating with Samsung's 'Double Eleven price reduction activities'." Cui Zhicheng told the truth.
"What!?"
Lee Jae-yong was doubly surprised, "There was no cancellation of cooperation? No passive cooperation? How is it possible! How is this possible!"
"Lu Fei may be like the old president. Feelings belong to feelings, and business belongs to business. He will never let feelings affect him..."
Cui Zhicheng saw his worried expression and immediately changed his mind, "Well, maybe the Internet trolls have little impact on Chinese consumers. Based on commercial interests, Lu Fei will not be willing to give up a high-quality product like Samsung."
Push the cooperation partners to competitors. After all, Samsung’s price reduction this time is a real discount, I’m afraid no one will be tempted.”
"You are right, people, there is no one who is not greedy for cheap. What consumers are greedy for is our price cuts. What Feigou Jingdong is greedy for is our price cuts. Even Lu Fei has to weigh it."
Li Zaiyong showed a relieved smile, "It seems that the possibility of Lu Fei using this incident to attack us is not high."
"President is wise, I guess he will also be fined."
Cui Zhicheng praised.
"It doesn't matter whether the fine is large or small, it just won't affect our layout in China, especially this year's Double Eleven."
Lee Jae-yong adjusted his glasses, "This time we will make good use of the price war and compete with logic."
The heat comes and goes quickly.
Samsung’s hiring of trolls was stolen by major e-commerce platforms’ “Double Eleven” warm-up promotions, which stole traffic and attention, and was drowned in dense advertisements and hot searches.
Only Wanwan is still chasing after him fiercely.
But Samsung doesn't care at all and invests its energy in mainland China, followed by Europe, to fight on two fronts of logic.
And once a dozen, it lasts nearly a month.
From late October until Double Eleven!
"Good news! Feigou Jingdong's single-day sales hit a record high on Double Eleven, exceeding 180 billion RMB!"
“On the day it was launched, iPhone 6’s sales were astonishing, with 11.23 million units shipped in 24 hours, making it the best-selling smartphone in history, far surpassing the equally high-profile Galaxy S3.”
"Samsung swept away the decline of the 'trolley incident' and focused on price cuts. The cumulative sales of Galaxy S3 across all platforms in a single day reached 30,000 units. So far, global shipments have exceeded 30 million."
"With the global sales of Galaxy S3, Samsung's stock price has been rising steadily, with an average daily growth of 2 points. A Wall Street analyst said: For Samsung, the Galaxy S series has always been a key product that snipes Apple and Logic. This time HTC's
Accusations and intervention are akin to 'the mantis stalking the cicada, with the oriole behind'."
"Samsung is waging a price war in Europe and Asia. The sword points directly to logic. Galaxy S3 and iPhone 6 are in a battle of kings!"
"..."
"Haha, even if something like that happens, it still won't stop us from setting a new quarterly profit record again in the fourth quarter."
The more Cui Zhicheng looked at the statistics table of Double Eleven, the louder he laughed.
"Don't be too happy. The fourth quarter is not over yet. It has just begun. We must maintain this momentum and carry the price war to the end. We must fight with logic in Asia and logic in Europe. Where is the logic?
, where Samsung appears!”
Lee Jae-yong spoke more and more passionately.
"yes!"
Cui Zhicheng heartily agreed.
"Whether it is a low-end, mid-range or high-end model, all prices will be reduced starting from the fourth quarter. This is an opportunity for us and we must not miss it."
Lee Jae-yong’s eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Cui Zhicheng smiled and handed over a plan, "You said before that you wanted the Galaxy S series to be co-branded with a luxury car brand, but now you have some ideas."
"Oh? Which brands are interested in cooperation?"
Lee Jae-yong flipped through it casually.
"Ferrari and Rolls-Royce are very interested in co-branding with us." Cui Zhicheng suggested, "President, in my opinion, why limit yourself to luxury car brands? You can also look for other luxury brands, such as LV, Chanel, Gucci, you
how do you feel?"
"Don't worry, send everyone to talk."
Lee Jae-yong raised his chin, not believing that with the current size of Samsung mobile phones, these luxury brands would not be interested?
"Hey, with these achievements, I think the old president can safely hand over Samsung to you." Cui Zhicheng said with a smile.
"maybe."
Li Zaiyong was very proud and his eyebrows were raised.
I secretly thought that when I took control of the entire Samsung Group, the first thing I would do was to transfer Li Jianxi to Li Fuzhen's petrochemical business and military industry, and divest them all from the group.
All packaged for sale!
In this way, the proportion of Samsung shares that Li Fuzhen holds cross-shareholding can be reduced. In the future, even if Li Jianxi gives the entire Samsung Electronics Finance to Li Yinxin, the equity held by the two sisters will no longer be enough to threaten him.
.
At that time, the entire Samsung will be considered yours!
While the two were discussing a protracted battle with logic, a trivial knock on the door instantly interrupted Lee Jae-yong's intracranial orgasm. His face collapsed and he was extremely ugly, "Come in!"
"President, it's not good."
The secretary hurried over and brought bad news——
The mixed use of Samsung OLED screens has been revealed.
"What did you say!!"
Lee Jae-yong and Cui Zhicheng's expressions suddenly changed and they spoke in unison.
The secretary took out his mobile phone and pulled up the video cached in the YouTube. He saw a mobile phone review YouTuber with millions of fans unpacking the iPhone 6 that he had received.
With a swipe of his finger, he directly saw this YouTuber comparing the Galaxy S3, iPhone 5 and iPhone 6, which are the most popular this year, and suddenly discovered something unusual.
"Oh Maika, I wonder if there is something wrong with my eyes?"
"I seem to think there's something wrong with Samsung's screen. Compared with iPhone 6 and iPhone 5, the edges are rough and the colors are not as vivid. This is simply incredible!"
"Everyone should know that the screens used in these three mobile phones are all OLED panels from Logic and BOE. BOE also uses Logic-licensed technology. Logically speaking, the screen performance of the three mobile phones should be similar.
"
"but!"
Under the watchful eyes of Lee Jae-yong and others, the YouTuber actually tested the OLED panels of three mobile phones in the video.
You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check.
"Oh my god! Samsung's screens don't come from logic!"
"Why do I know? Because RGB arrangement is the most standard arrangement. It divides a square pixel into three equal parts, and gives each piece a different color. In this way, a colored pixel can be formed. And if you look at the logical sum
Apple’s pixel graphics are diamonds, look at Samsung’s.”
"Duck, does it look like an ugly duckling?"
Immediately afterwards, in order to verify his judgment, the YouTuber took out an already used Galaxy S3. However, the result was beyond his expectation. The screen of this one was arranged in diamonds.
"Turn it off! Turn it off!"
Lee Jae-yong no longer wanted to read any further.
The secretary was so excited that he almost dropped his phone, "Yes... President, President, now the entry about our 'oled screen overturned, mixed with fake' has already become a hot search on YouTube, and I'm afraid it will soon be on Facebook.
Twitter will also appear."
"How could this happen! How could this happen!"
Li Zaiyong looked in disbelief. Could it be Lu Fei? Could it be Lu Fei's fault? It must be him!
"President, we must find a solution immediately. This is different from the previous 'cyber trolls'." Cui Zhicheng remained calm.
"Yes, yes, how do you think we should remedy it?"
Lee Jae-yong showed a rare look of panic on his face.
"I think we need to have a meeting first. Before that, we need to do our best to suppress the heat and buy us as much time as possible."
Cui Zhicheng said seriously.
"Should...should I tell the old president?"
The secretary asked weakly.
"You want me to call my father?"
Lee Jae-yong's face turned cold, "No, I don't want to call my father. Do you want to call your father?"
"No...President, no."
The secretary shrank his head and shut up completely.
"Then stop talking nonsense and notify the meeting immediately!"
Lee Jae-yong slapped his hand on the table, "The meeting will begin immediately!" ()
