Chapter 1491 Different Confidence
April 28th.
In the morning, as soon as Li Dong arrived at the company, Bai Suhui reported: "Mr. Li, the number of domestic WeChat users has exceeded 5 million, and the number of overseas users has also reached 2.2 million.
And today's growth rate is even faster than the previous two days!
As the live broadcast time is approaching, coupled with the attractiveness of the new version, and other publicity, by 8 pm, Mr. Zhang said before that the number of domestic users may reach 6 million..."
Li Dong didn't pay much attention to these, but asked, "Is there any movement from Teng Xun's side?"
Bai Su immediately said: "Yes, the other party has established a relationship with Sina Weibo, Weibo users can enter Weichat through Weibo, and Weichat can also share their own dynamics on Weibo..."
"So fast?"
Li Dong was a little surprised, it's only been a few days?
This kind of cooperation generally involves data sharing. Under normal circumstances, these Internet companies place more value on user data.
In less than two days now, the two sides have broken through the barriers, which shows that this time they are indeed cruel.
Bai Su said and said: "The other thing is about Ali, Taobao will hold a large-scale promotion on May 1st, and many merchants will participate.
As for the merchants of Tmall, this time Tmall merchants have reduced a lot of fee items.
And Best, announced this morning that it has acquired Huitong. Next, Best and Huitong will work together with the newly established Morning Express to serve Tmall merchants.
In terms of B2C, Dibao is about to adopt a self-operated logistics model. "
Li Dong nodded slightly and said: "It was expected long ago, the rookie's purpose was like this back then, but it turned out that the rookie was not Ali's rookie, so it didn't happen.
Now that Ma Yun is doing his own logistics, it is normal to serve Tmall first.
But after all, one thing is very important..."
Seeing Bai Su's listening attitude, Li Dong suddenly smiled and said: "The key is that Tmall is too weak!
A Best and Huitong, plus the empty shell of Xingchen, can actually provide self-operated logistics services for Tmall Mall!
When the news spread, anyone who knows how to do it laughed out loud.
Three small courier companies dare to say that they can meet Tmall's needs, how miserable the business is to be like this..."
Bai Su was a little speechless to Li Dong's joke, is this worth your laughing?
It's not like you don't know the strength of Tmall, it's like hearing it for the first time.
Without interrupting Li Dong's words, Bai Su continued: "Also, Su Lin is stepping up the layout of the store system in the rural market.
With the help of the policy of sending home appliances to the countryside, the opponent's deployment was quick, but Guomei fell behind because of funding problems.
In addition, Surin's online shopping mall is now focusing on the O2O route, and its promotion resources have been increased.
Also, Best Buy stores, Surin also began to receive transformation.
As for Five Star, Su Lin is also starting negotiations and has the intention of mergers and acquisitions.
Bailian and Huarun are integrating resources while continuing to expand. The northern market we gave up, especially the capital market, is almost occupied by them now.
The Southern Market..."
Bai Su reported one by one, picking out the key points.
Li Dong has a lot of things to do, it is impossible to read all the documents and take care of everything.
Now he is not just Bai Su's assistant, there are many people in the chairman's office, and the main task every day is to collect information, and then Bai Su will report to Li Dong.
In addition to the establishment of the executive committee, Yuan Chengdao also took over a batch of affairs. Currently, Li Dong is relatively more relaxed than before.
If there hadn't been a lot of major events recently, he could try the taste of seclusion now.
After Bai Su's report was over, Liu Hong entered the office after a while, and said with a smile, "President Li, the live broadcast room is set up, do you want to go and see it in advance?"
Li Dong was not in a hurry to look, but said: "Be prepared for tens of millions of people to enter, is there any problem with the website?"
"Must..."
Liu Hong was stunned for a moment, this master is so confident!
However, Liu Hong immediately said: "No problem,
The live broadcast of the Olympic Games last time was watched by more than ten million people, and the website can bear it.
Information processing will not be slow, many of our big data centers are in operation, and the data processing speed can keep up..."
This time, the direct live broadcast on the video website is different from some later live broadcast platforms.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that there are no relevant regulations on online video.
Otherwise, audio-visual websites like PP Video do not allow individuals to directly broadcast live.
Moreover, Li Dong's status is unusual, otherwise, even if there are no relevant regulations, he may not be able to directly broadcast live on PP video.
Websites such as PP Video have currently obtained licenses, and there is no business scope for personal live broadcasting.
If anyone passes this point now, it is not impossible to directly prevent Li Dong from live broadcasting.
Of course, doing this at this time would really offend Li Dong to death.
Even if someone wants to do it, the agency will not come forward.
Li Dong heard him say it's all right, so he got up and said: "Go, go and have a look, and practice the operation.
In case there are too many people, I don't know what to do.
This is my first time, so I have to commemorate it..."
Just as he was talking here, someone suddenly laughed at the door and said, "This is the first time, Li Dong, you are still there until the first time? So, you are still married?"
Li Dong glanced at it, frowned and said, "How did you get in?"
Xu Shengzhe shrugged and said, "I didn't see Bai Su, so I came in directly."
"Your uncle, do you have any professional ethics?
I'm talking about business secrets, you just walked in without knocking on the door? "
Li Dong scolded, Bai Su is not here, in fact there are still people outside, but everyone knows that Li Dong and Xu Shengzhe have a good relationship.
In addition, this guy didn't realize it and didn't pause, so he came in directly, and it was not easy for others to stop him, and it was too late to stop him.
After being scolded by Li Dong, Xu Shengzhe said speechlessly: "Bullshit business secrets.
Didn't I hear that you are going to broadcast live? It sounds very interesting. Let me take a look at the situation.
What's the matter, show me a little? "
"What's good to know."
Li Dong casually said something perfunctory, and then said: "Don't try to imitate me, I'm different from you.
I am the richest man in the world, a myth in the business world, a national male god...
I broadcast live, no matter what I do, even if I go to the bathroom, countless people are willing to watch it.
You want to use this method to promote Longhua, go to sleep, it's strange if someone takes care of you! "
Li Dong didn't lie, he did his business, and his popularity was greater than the biggest stars in the world. In the business world, there were not many business tycoons who were more famous than him.
Bill Gates counts as one, and Buffett barely counts as one.
As for other business tycoons and famous figures in later generations, many of them have not fully risen yet.
Zuckerberg, Ma Yun, including Gang Leader Qiao, are far less famous than Li Dong at this time.
As for Xu Shengzhe, many people in Jiangbei don't know him, let alone the whole country.
Xu Shengzhe was a little tired and said: "Did I say that I want to broadcast live?
I'm just curious, do you need to speak ill of me?
Yes, you are famous, and you are seen squatting in the toilet. What's the matter, if you have the ability, try squatting in the toilet tonight? "
"Don't provoke me..."
"President Li!"
Liu Hong on the side couldn't help shouting, with a little helplessness on his face, why are you competing!
If you really want to be provoked to live broadcast in the bathroom, is it embarrassing?
Li Dong coughed lightly, didn't continue talking, and stepped forward: "I don't want to talk to you, let's go to the live broadcast room to watch.
In addition, other preparations have been made. The main purpose of tonight is to promote WeChat, not to chat with everyone.
By the way, Xu Shengzhe, if you are free, please cooperate with me, and I will make you famous by the way. "
Xu Shengzhe said with a vigilant face: "Don't try to trick me!
It's fine in normal times, but this time there must be a lot of people who watched it. I was tricked by you at this time, and I'm looking for you desperately! "
In normal times, it doesn't matter if everyone talks nonsense in private.
In public, it would be embarrassing to be humiliated by Li Dongkeng.
Other entrepreneurs generally don't do this kind of thing, so it's hard for Li Dong to say.
This is not the first time that Li Dong has cheated people. In the last personal interview, he cheated a lot of people.
But at that time, everyone was not there, so they just chatted like gossip after dinner. This time, the scene was cheated, and that would be miserable.
Li Dong said with a dark face: "Whether you like to do it or not, I think Longhua has more plans recently, and at least I have my shares. I will help you increase your popularity and save a little advertising fee. You are not happy anymore.
And you want to go public in Xiangjiang, is it okay if you don't have a reputation?
Without fame, who knows who you are, who knows which green onion you are?
But it's different if you broadcast live with me, even if it's just a temporary supporting role, something like props.
Anyway, let me play Li Dong as a supporting role, this status will be elevated in an instant..."
Xu Shengzhe's face was darker than his, and he said angrily: "Am I so miserable? After all, I am also a billionaire, and I control the top ten real estate companies in the country. How come you say that I am not even as good as a beggar gone?"
"There's so much nonsense, don't drag it down..."
Li Dong didn't continue, and followed Liu Hong out of the office.
But Xu Shengzhe gritted his teeth and followed, suspiciously saying: "Are you sure you won't cheat me?"
"roll!"
"Be civilized, in your company, shame is not shame, if you really want to cheat, tell me how to cooperate?
Also, I will advertise for Longhua when the time comes, what do you think?
Now Longhua's life is not easy. If you can save a little bit, you will have your shares anyway. Do you think this is the reason? "
"..."
Liu Hong on the side was really tired when he heard the conversation between the two.
These two people are both rich and powerful figures, and no one will underestimate them anywhere.
But what happened?
The two are discussing how to save advertising costs, is it worth it?
...
Shenzhen.
As time passed, the smoke in the office became more and more lingering.
Ma Huateng smoked one cigarette after another. He was addicted to cigarettes, but he didn't usually smoke like this.
Today, Ma Huateng felt extremely irritable.
After a long time, Ma Huateng suddenly shouted: "Let other people come to my office for a meeting!"
The secretary outside the door responded cautiously, Ma Huateng's temper is actually quite good, especially for his own people, Xiao Ma has always been more protective.
But in the past few days, Brother Xiao Ma has been in a bad mood. At this time, except for a few veterans, other executives are afraid to meet him alone.
After about ten minutes, other people entered the office one after another.
Zhang Zidong waved his hand as soon as he entered the office, frowned slightly and said, "Pony, it's better to smoke less.
Everyone is watching you. You are in a bad mood and unstable, which affects the whole Teng Xun. You must learn to restrain yourself. "
As one of the five generals and currently the team member with the most shares besides Ma Huateng, the relationship between Zhang Zidong and Ma Huateng has always been very good.
In the past two years, everyone may still have some disputes.
But in the past two years, as Yuanfang grew bigger, the main elders on Teng Xun's side didn't even have time to fight among themselves, and the relationship became closer instead.
Hearing Zhang Zidong's words, Ma Huateng snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, exhaled and said, "Be careful next time, I was thinking about something just now, and my mind was a little distracted."
As he said that, Ma Huateng greeted several major executives to sit down, and sighed: "Teng Xun's most important bargaining chip is the large-scale promotion of the entire group, and the result is not as good as others' random actions.
A live broadcast has not yet started, and people inside and outside the industry, and even the whole world, are looking forward to it.
It's just an advertisement, do these people really think that Li Dong will teach them how to do business during the live broadcast?
Just now I looked at the data, and the domestic users of WeChat have exceeded 5.5 million, and the number of foreign users has also reached 2.5 million.
Global users, breaking through the 8 million mark!
The distance is tens of millions, it shouldn't be too far away, and it may even be reached tonight.
Also, the new version of the other party, which Li Dong attaches so much importance to, is obviously not an ordinary change and improvement. I guessed before, what is different about the WeChat that Li Dong has placed high hopes on?
Combining some information collected in the past two days, as well as my own speculation, I can probably guess their version mode.
The other party may be doing a voice intercom. "
As soon as Ma Huateng finished speaking, everyone's expressions changed slightly. After a while, they said humanely: "What kind of voice mode? Direct call mode, or fragmented voice data conversion?"
"I don't know, I'm just speculating, but everything is known tonight.
Don't go back tonight, everyone. In addition, the main members of the R&D department and the technical department will work overtime tonight.
Let's watch Li Dong's live broadcast together, research and analyze it.
Yuanfang has definitely made a large-scale improvement to WeChat this time, and our only hope is to keep up with it as quickly as possible! "
Ma Huateng said a few words, but Zhang Zidong continued the topic just now: "There shouldn't be any technical problems in the voice version of WeChat, including us, we can actually do it.
Before, we even tried it on QQ, both PC and mobile can do it.
But the point is not this..."
Ma Huateng laughed at himself: "Are you talking about the operator's problem?
Didn't you see the rumors on the Internet before?
Check it out now, anyone else?
Li Dong, this guy has more calculations than us, not to mention, he has more confidence than us. Although we are not weak in the IT industry, can we compare with Yuanfang in terms of influence and comprehensive strength?
Several major operators are afraid of Li Dong, but it does not mean they are afraid of us.
Li Dong can do it first, if he does it, we will follow suit, and the pressure will not be too great.
Once we do it first, you should understand how difficult it is. "
Everyone is speechless, this is a fact.
Li Dong did it because he had the confidence to do it and to bear it.
The mobile companies did not dare to fight Li Dong rashly, as the saying goes, the strong are respected.
Yuanfang Group is very powerful, so they don't have to worry about some things, but Teng Xun is different.
When you are weak, you have to endure and hold back, even if Teng Xun has a market value of more than 100 billion, the three major operators are really not too worried.
In the previous life, Teng Xun actually launched the voice version before launching QQforPad, about 10 years ago.
However, due to some policy reasons, it had to be abandoned in the end.
Why give up?
In fact, it is easy to understand, because in about 10 years, they have not yet had the strength to touch the core interests of operators.
Until later, everyone was doing it, and this model became a trend, and operators could not reverse it, so there were voice versions of WeChat and Michat.
Ma Huateng was emotional for a while, and finally cheered up and said: "It doesn't matter so much, the main reason for calling you here is this!
This guy Li Dong must be ridiculed and ridiculed at night. We don't care about him, and we all watch the new version of WeChat's operation mode seriously.
When Yuanfang updates the version, we will start researching it immediately.
Try to launch a new version within a week!
Once the micro chat fails..."
Ma Huateng didn't say this for no reason, Li Dong's influence was greater than they imagined.
The number of WeChat users is almost over 10 million, which is a terrifying statistic.
On the mobile side, their chances of failure now seem to be as high as 90%.
Yuanfang moved too fast, Teng Xun couldn't keep up for a while, Ma Huateng paused, and said in a low voice: "The mobile terminal failed, then prepare for the competition on the PC terminal!"
Everyone's face straightened, it was a matter of time, and everyone was already mentally prepared.
