my bolang life

Room 716 was silent for the second time.

Everyone looked at the display screen in front of them.

Li Ze, Tang Pu and the others looked at three screens.

Wen Liang mentioned earlier that he would encounter various external competitions, and he also wrote some crisis response plans.

I also told a few people that the competition in the domestic Internet industry is cruel, and that the reason for the inability to develop peacefully is that the growth process will affect the traffic of peers.

In a broad sense, traffic is the core interest of Internet products.

The essence of competition is for profit.

Therefore, when they learned that the crisis had arrived, everyone in the office did not panic.

Instead, while waiting for the battle, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

There is a feeling of being late but arriving.

After all, in this round of Internet popularity, the number of concurrent online users of Xiaochengshu has reached more than 1200 million in a retaliatory manner. It is a ghost that there is no competition!

Wen Liang also waited for a long time.

In order to cope with the inevitable competition, he specially left some loopholes for the outside world to take advantage of before launching the cooperation zone and app.

For example, brand partners get 30% commission.

For example, the app can choose to restrict the display button of advertisements...

Weibo platform first came out some 'noise'.

"I have no objection to applying to become a brand partner, but is the 30% commission really reasonable?"

"I have always had a good impression of Xiaochengshu, especially when I saw the words 'dare to be the first' in the answer of a certain boss in Zhihu. Until now, I have admired Xiaochengshu, but now... this kind of The admiration is gone, it's all business!"

"I saw that many people didn't pay attention to the proportion of the draw, and submitted the application directly. Alas... It's really worthless for these bloggers. I worked hard to update the content every day and finally I can receive commercial promotion, just because I applied for a brand partner. 30% will be taken away.”

"..."

These comments are nothing in themselves, and they are not enough to trigger an alarm.

What caught Wen Liang's attention was the information reported by the new function module [Automatically Compare Information Sources] of the public opinion monitoring system: a certain amount of information was highly similar in content and highly concentrated in time.

This is not some advanced artificial intelligence.

It is just a simple data integration, which can be regarded as an application form of big data.

Naturally, the instigator behind the network cannot be found directly.

In less than 2 minutes, Li Ze found out the possible main messenger behind the 'noise' on the Weibo platform through the public opinion monitoring system.

"Ten minutes ago, two Blue Vs posted a Weibo post about the 10% rake. The content was rather tactful. The certification time for these two Blue Vs was at the end of last month!"

"They correspond to a community website that has been online for more than half a year. Although the style is completely different from Xiaochengshu, they have obvious positive meanings."

"Some new activities have been launched on the homepage of their official website, similar to our brand partners, the key point is that the commission rate is 10%!"

Tang Pu then said: "There must be some kind of tacit understanding between these two websites, the time is relatively consistent, and they are leading the discussion in an organized way!"

"The discussion on Weibo has started to become a topic!"

Amid the 'crackling' sound of typing on the keyboard, everyone announced the latest situation in an orderly manner.

"The topic is mainly focused on the matter of 30% of the unified commission for brand partners."

"I found a new community website of the same kind, and guided related comments in the forum!"

"Just now, someone created a new post bar called 'Xiao Cheng Shu Shu Cheng'... Fuck, the number of posts is over a hundred!"

"..."

"There are too many competing products popping up! Including the one you found just now, we have already counted 6 of them, all of which are small community websites with little traffic!"

"It's too consistent. They may all have provoked negative discussions at the same point in time. It's basically stuck at the peak of the first round of discussions brought about by our launch of the cooperation zone!"

"Extremely provocative!"

"..."

In the sound of everyone's announcement, Wen Liang also clicked the mouse to browse the latest network information.

Basically, I can see the opponent's first move this time.

"These competing product community websites that popped up all of a sudden, no matter whether they have launched a similar brand partner plan or not, they should all be behind the same opponent."

"It shouldn't be so easy to show up."

After a short pause, Wen Liang said calmly: "For convenience, temporarily name this opponent: 'x'!"

"Don't be blinded by the superficially similar competition methods and methods of 'Fairy Notes', find a way to find the connection between them, otherwise we will be exhausted! This is a long-planned sniper!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone immediately corrected their expressions and responded solemnly: "Understood!"

Just when everyone was using technical means to integrate information and find out the real face of the opponent, Chen Jiaxin's cell phone rang loudly.

Chen Jiaxin connected the phone without looking at it, and casually said, "Who is there?"

A middle-aged man's voice quickly came from over there: "Mr. Chen, is it convenient to talk? I, Qian Dejian, the investment manager of Xinteng Capital, would like to discuss a deal with Mr. Chen."

Hearing this sentence, Chen Jiaxin's eyelids twitched, and immediately reported the situation to Wen Liang through QQ.

Cope with it calmly: "Sorry, I'm a little busy."

Wen Liang also quickly gave a reference: "Don't push, chat for 2 minutes, and simply find out the intention."

Chen Jiaxin turned on the speakerphone, flirted with the other party for a while, and then hung up the phone under Wen Liang's guidance.

The other party wanted to buy the shares in Chen Jiaxin's hands, saying that they could pay a high price.

Wen Liang pondered for a while, and said: "Since it's postponed until tomorrow, let's skip it first. I guess this is just the beginning. If you also receive this kind of call, just push it to my side."

Everyone responded.

Later, Wen Liang emphasized two sentences: "'Unfair and malicious competition in the Internet industry is a common method. This method is low-cost, it is difficult to verify the authenticity of the behavior, and it is difficult to protect rights; so we should not have any expectations for the environment."

In the end, Wen Liang said coldly: "Don't forget that 'Fairy Notes' finally posted harmful and illegal information on the Xiaochengshu platform, which we considered pediatrics!"

"clear."

"Do not worry."

"Yes, don't worry, what did that sentence say, what doesn't kill us will make us stronger!"

"..."

Seeing that everyone is very confident and their morale is high, Wen Liang smiled: "That's right, these miscellaneous methods are nothing more than chickens and dogs."

As he said that, Wen Liang's laughter turned cold: "You can use public opinion to build momentum, but don't use the same means to fight fire with fire. Let's see who is riding the wave when the tide recedes!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Ze's bushy eyebrows were about to burst into laughter: "Haha, yes, let's see who is making trouble..."

In an instant, the room was full of happy air again.

……

Soon, there were negative topics about Xiaochengshu on Weibo hot searches.

Although the ranking is very low, the impact has already been produced.

Many netizens have turned to discuss the 30% commission, and the conformity of human beings is fully reflected at this moment.

The general direction is that Xiaochengshu's commission is too ruthless.

Others have brought out foreign countries, especially America, to compare and belittle Xiaochengshu, and at the same time belittle the entire domestic Internet industry.

Hot questions also popped up on the niche platform Zhihu:

[What do you think of Xiao Orange Book’s announcement that it will charge 30% of the fee for becoming a brand partner after launching the cooperation zone?Even the advertisements undertaken by users themselves have to charge a certain management service fee. Is this reasonable?Why do I feel that many people are scolding Xiaochengshu? 】
