What's wrong with me being a rich man?

Chapter 95 A visit
As a well-known portal website, NetEase's sudden and rapid reporting on the incident of a fake website was certainly not groundless.

Zhuo Shiming is the director who took over the company's marriage and love business. He had dealt with Yu Xing before and gave him a public apology, but his work did not go smoothly after that.

NetEase entered the dating business not too late, but the resource investment was average and the market feedback was even more average.

Zhuo Shiming participated in high-level meetings and obtained the following reason: according to internal analysis, the market was not mature enough.

He had a lot of complaints about this, especially after taking over the reorganized "NetEase Dating", he had even more different emotions. However, he was powerless and had to find a way to manage the business on his own.

On December 12, Bai Xiaosheng made a precise attack, and Zhuo Shiming immediately saw this big news in the industry, although... because of the name of the company's main business, NetEase is generally not considered in the industry.

Zhuo Shiming browsed articles, registered accounts, downloaded attachments, and studied detailed cases one by one.

He quickly gave a favorable comment!
The case is very detailed, and it is obvious at first glance that it is inside information!!

Zhuo Shiming didn't even have time to eat lunch at noon. He immediately contacted the Guangzhou headquarters, strongly requested and asked colleagues and friends to report on the company. He also called his boss, hoping to reposition the next goal of "NetEase Dating".

At 4:30 p.m., after NetEase did publish the report, Zhuo Shiming joined a conference call and was asked to tell his current thoughts.

Zhuo Shiming elaborated on Bai Xiaosheng's precise criticism of the industry, but his speech was frequently interrupted.

“Are the cases in it necessarily true?”

Facing the doubts, Zhuo Shiming patiently answered: "The case may be false, but my feelings about the chaos in the industry are exactly the same as what it describes. In a sense, this industry is very disorderly, especially now that it is still in a growth stage."

He really wanted to talk about the significance of doing things during the growth phase, but he held back.

The speeches were suspended while the situation was being discussed at a headquarters meeting.

After a while, Zhuo Shiming was asked to speak again.

NetEase's report is intervening in the public opinion this time, and this action is strongly driven by Zhuo Shiming, and even part of it is due to his own personal connections.

In this case, we have to listen to the charter ideas from "NetEase Dating".

"I think this is a good opportunity for someone to stand up and criticize the problems facing the industry."

"Will the three mainstream websites in the industry, such as Zhenai, Shijijiayuan and Baihe.com, change easily because of such criticism? I think not. Even if they are openly impacted by public opinion, their internal changes will inevitably be slow."

"This gives us a good starting point for NetEase Dating."

"Most of the cases cited by Bai Xiaosheng are from false information and malicious concealment. We can have an immediate way to attract customers."

“Real-name system!”

Zhuo Shiming put forward his specific suggestions for improvement, took a deep breath, and prepared to continue elaborating.

An interruption came from the phone: "Director Zhuo, do you think the real-name system can solve all problems?"

"The real-name system certainly can't solve all problems, but it can definitely solve a lot of problems." Zhuo Shiming explained, "The field of marriage and love is very special, unlike other Internet fields, the real-name system can bring more trust."

"From disorder to order, this is a rare opportunity to set industry standards!"

“Who usually sets industry standards?”

“We are usually the leaders, but when there is a storm of public opinion, we also have the opportunity to promote the progress of the industry and gain the trust of our customers!”

Zhuo Shiming reiterated: "The field of marriage and love is different, and the effect of the real-name system can also be seen on the campus network. The reliable atmosphere in a specific field can gain more recognition."

"As long as the momentum of public opinion this time is strong enough, we will be the first in the country to become the first real-name marriage and dating brand on the entire site, and we will definitely be able to gain the market and users!"

He also included a request for support, hoping that NetEase's attention and coverage would stir up public opinion even more intensely.

A new question came from the other end of the phone: "This incident originated from that small website. You posted it so eagerly. If the small website deletes the post tomorrow, the news will not spread, and the so-called real-name marriage and love will be in vain."

This is indeed a problem.

Zhuo Shiming hesitated for a moment before answering, "When NetEase Dating had problems last time, I had a conversation with Yu Xing from the website. My judgment of him is that he is always right and never gives in."

"He forced me to apologize in public downstairs of the company."

"For a young man like him, I don't think it will be easy for him to compromise."

Zhuo Shiming paused, and finally said: "In addition, the development of the website he is currently working on will probably also benefit from public opinion."

Even if Yu Xing wanted to compromise, he would not compromise now that he sees the benefits of the website.

Zhuo Shiming didn't know whether Yu Xing was acting out of indignation or out of consideration for the company's development. He just talked about the possible changes in the subsequent situation. His words would easily lead to people making judgments at the headquarters meeting.

It will be easy if there is profit motivation.

Although NetEase can still drive public opinion after Bai Xiaosheng gives in, "NetEase Dating" wants to quit this time.

Fighting and eating at the same time is a bit ugly after all.

If Bai Xiaosheng takes the lead to attract the attention, NetEase plays its normal role of media supervision, and its business promotes the progress of the industry, it will be more logical no matter how you look at it.

Zhuo Shiming's ideas were no longer interrupted, which also meant that the decision-making within NetEase had already tended to move forward.

It can be done.

By the time the meeting was over, Zhuo Shiming had even thought of a new slogan for the website.

——Blind dates start with real names, and love becomes simple and real!
Let the public opinion be more intense!
Let the gap in the industry be torn even bigger!
……

Unlike fake websites like Bai Xiaosheng, NetEase is one of the earliest portal websites in China. Although the portal era has passed, it still has considerable clicks and audiences.

This time, because it was a reprint and there were attachments, NetEase gave a link below when reporting it, which was equivalent to attracting traffic to Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Xiaosheng’s user registration peaks in the evening.

During the entire day, the number of users increased by more than 7000, and before 12 o'clock in the evening, the number of new users exceeded 1.

This effect made Song Yufeng both surprised and delighted.

The effect is really great!
The effect is a bit too good...

Is this the power of industry giants?
NetEase is his old employer, but he never thought much of it before. It was only after seeing the concrete digital changes in his company this time that Song Yufeng felt a heartfelt sense of envy.

This kind of report is equivalent to the company’s achievements over the past month!
Moreover, if it does not withdraw the paper, it will surpass all the work efforts since the company was founded!

Song Yufeng was sleepless late at night. He was smoking on the balcony while watching the user growth in real time. He was still thinking and reflecting on his hesitation during the day.

The most important thing is the reminder from the boss.

Being tough is to protect both the company and yourself.

"Brother Feng, what are you thinking about? It's time to go to sleep." Girlfriend Kong Huilin woke up in a daze and saw her boyfriend curled up on the small balcony.

Song Yufeng put down his cigarette, walked into the bedroom with his notebook, and said with emotion: "I just saw those comments and felt very excited. Everyone generally supports our criticism, and there are victims who share their own cases under the post."

"We are now playing the role of a third party. If the industry doesn't change, then we will change it." Kong Huilin looked at her boyfriend and became sober: "Brother Feng, I like you like this. Romain Rolland said that there is only one true heroism in the world, and that is to love life after knowing the truth of life."

"If you hadn't bravely left NetEase, I wouldn't have resigned from Penguin."

“I think what we are doing is very meaningful!”

Song Yufeng felt heavy in his heart. He put down his notebook and smiled at his girlfriend: "Well, this kind of meaning will definitely be recognized on the Internet, and that will make our website successful."

Kong Huilin nodded, and said with some regret: "The website users are quite active now, and I think the atmosphere in the company is also very good. It would be nice if you had an independent office."

Song Yufeng's heart froze.

Then, he said angrily: "If that's the case, you can just say it in front of me. I know what kind of ability I have. Otherwise, I wouldn't have found Mr. Yu to be the president. If you employ someone, trust him. If you don't trust him, don't employ him."

"Everyone has a different division of labor. Since he is in charge of the company's affairs, he will inevitably have to receive guests and negotiate business. Should he be allowed to sit outside to receive guests?"

"Our only goal now is to make the website a success, everything else is secondary!"

Kong Huilin looked ashamed and apologized: "I am, I am..."

"Xiao Lin, I know you care about me, and I don't blame you." Song Yufeng held his girlfriend's hand, "Everyone has different abilities and roles. As long as we unite, our justice will surely win!"

Kong Huilin scratched her boyfriend's palm with her fingers, tilted her head slightly and looked at her boyfriend.

Song Yufeng really couldn't stand his girlfriend looking at him like that.

Alas, this is what hard bones deserve!
However, the next morning, when Song Yufeng arrived at the company, he thought of what his girlfriend said last night.

He couldn't help but grumble in his heart, hey, as the chairman of the board, he doesn't even have an independent office...

Song Yufeng thought about it, and then he stood up and walked into the president's office with the marketing documents in his hand and sat down on the office chair.

When I went upstairs just now, I saw Brother Xing making a phone call downstairs. He probably won’t be coming up for a while.

Sit on this boss chair for a while.

Song Yufeng thought about Brother Xing’s plan. If he could rent the house next door, he would have his own office by then.

Oh, should I give the office to my girlfriend?
His eyes lost focus as he imagined the company's bright future. After all, the total number of the company's users had approached 5 yesterday alone, and today he would definitely be able to achieve the goal set by his boss.

What is the number of 5 users?
According to Brother Xing, this will be the basis for him to start contacting Series A investors.

Now it seems that with the help from NetEase, this number can be increased significantly, which means that Brother Xing will have more bargaining chips to contact investors.

Song Yufeng was thinking about this when he suddenly heard a "bang" and the door of the president's office was roughly pushed open!

He looked up and was surprised to see several men with unfriendly faces rushing in.

"What are you doing!" Song Yufeng stood up from the boss chair.

"What's your name!" a man asked loudly, "Are you Yu Xing?"

Song Yufeng's mind buzzed, and he denied: "I'm not!"

The employees had gathered around, and one of them was a voice from my girlfriend.

"What are you doing? He is our chairman." Kong Huilin warned, "What are you doing? We called security!"

The men looked at each other and said, "The chairman is fine too!"
Without saying anything more, they walked up to Song Yufeng, pulled him out, and some of them pushed the computer on the workstation outside.

"Call the police, someone is being beaten, what are you doing!" an employee shouted.

Song Yufeng struggled hard, but to no avail.

Soon, he started holding his head and could determine the reason for the beating.

"This is a broken website, don't cause any trouble!"

A few men made a mess of the company and even dragged the chairman out of his office and beat him up. After doing all this, they disappeared without a trace.

"Call the police, they are coming soon."

"Don't panic. Is anyone else injured? Call 120 again."

"Don't move, take pictures, take pictures of the company's situation, and also, did anyone take pictures of their faces just now?"

Song Yufeng heard the boss's voice in charge of the situation, and through his swollen eyes he saw Yu Xing's figure in command.

Grass!
The office is toxic!

Song Yufeng's body was in pain. He was supported by his girlfriend and sat on the ground, leaning against the wall. The grief and anger in his heart became more and more agitated. Suddenly he shouted loudly: "Come on, come on, my bones are very hard!"

This beating can’t be taken in vain!
The chairman remained so tough after being beaten. Everyone couldn't help but look at him with admiration. Some female employees even couldn't help but want to cry.

Yu Xing squatted down to check the physical condition of Hard Bone.

After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It should be a skin injury. Let's go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination. Your arm hurts a lot, right?"

Song Yufeng nodded, his arm was particularly painful.

"No broken bones, maybe a little fracture." Yu Xing studied medicine, so his judgment was based on facts. "Maybe there's also a slight concussion."

Song Yufeng looked at his boss, thinking about this unexpected disaster, thinking about how he, the chairman, was dragged out and beaten, and felt particularly aggrieved: "Brother Xing, Brother Xing! They dragged me out and beat me!"

"Damn it, you didn't tell me they could be so barbaric!"

"As the chairman, I am the first one to bear the brunt of this!!!"

Yu Xing looked at the hard bone in front of him that seemed to be fractured, and then looked at Kong Huilin who was crying beside him, and praised: "Brother Feng, you are this!"

He gave a thumbs up.

Moreover, the usage of the word "bear the brunt" is also very correct, you are worthy of being a reporter.

The dispatched police arrived and inquired about the situation.

Before the ambulance arrived, Yu Xing and Song Yufeng narrated the relevant situation in detail, with Song Yufeng, the person involved, mainly speaking.

When the ambulance arrived and Yu Xing helped Song Yufeng get in, his cell phone suddenly rang.

After answering a few words, he shouted to the chairman who was about to go to the hospital: "Brother Feng, NetEase called me and they want to interview us! Don't worry, your bones won't be broken in vain!"

Song Yufeng waved his hand and left with the ambulance's siren sounding "Ouch, ouch".

While agreeing to an interview with NetEase, Yu Xing watched the ambulance drive away.

This is too much! You can’t hit my chairman even if you want to hit me!
