Pingchuan.
Li Dong had just gotten off the plane when his phone rang.
Li Dong looked at the number and smiled. "What is it, Old Ma. Do you miss me?"
Ma Yun's face darkened. "Don't talk about these useless things. Li Dong, you can do it. You really can!
I really lost this time. I admit it, but you are too sinister!
You used the QR code to attract our attention. So it was to hide this killer move!
Ma Huateng and I were not prepared for the Pearl Harbor attack!
Let's not talk about this first. Let me ask you, who thought of this idea?
Also, how did you do the risk management plan?
How much pressure did you put on the server? With your current endurance, how much pressure can you withstand without collapsing … … "
Ma Yun's questions came one after another. Li Dong was confused. "What is this?"
"Stop pretending, Li Dong. We can do this with a little analysis, but I want to hear it from you personally. But I want to hear it from your own mouth. Since you've already done it, do you still want to hide this? "
Li Dong was speechless. "What are you talking about? I don't understand."
"Red packets. Million Cartoon Red Packets. PP Red Packets!
Don't tell me you don't know. You don't care about this.
The person who came up with this idea is amazing!
This attack was very successful. I have to admit that the red packets have stimulated the greed, anger, and obsession in people. It has also stimulated the gambling nature of ordinary people.
Gambling was something ingrained in everyone's bones.
Although I expected it from your previous publicity, I did not expect it to be implemented in this way. It will spread like a virus.
Even Ali. Previously, most people used Ali Wangwang or QQ. Very few people used PP.
But in just a few days, the number of PP users has skyrocketed. Even some departments' work groups are using PP.
What's more frightening is that the previous work groups only talked about work. Now, there are people sending red packets all night. Even some of our executives are personally involved.
Li Dong, do you know what I want to do the most now?
If it were you, I'm afraid you'd report me for gathering people to gamble! "
After Ma Yun finished speaking, Li Dong finally reacted. He immediately laughed and said, "You mean the Red Envelope System? It can't be. The Red Envelope System is only supported by OL phones. There shouldn't be too many users. The current sales volume of the OL series of mobile phones was only about 3 million. Even if all of them participate, there will only be three million people. What are you so anxious about? "
"You're taking advantage of me and you're still pretending to be innocent!"
Ma Yun looked a little helpless. He really didn't expect the red packet to have such an effect. It was like a virus that started to spread in an instant.
It was a very scary function development!
Money, gambling, greed, these were the things hidden in everyone's bones.
Especially at this time, there were not many Internet entertainment programs. The appearance of red packets, coupled with the fact that New Year's Eve was approaching, instantly ignited everyone's enthusiasm.
Yes, there weren't many users of office phones.
However, almost all of the users of OL phones were red packet users.
Users who bought OL phones were generally between the ages of 20 to 40.
These people were the mainstream customer group of Internet payment and instant messaging.
At present, there weren't many users. In addition, the 3G network was still not complete, and there were often all kinds of problems.
But a single spark could start a prairie fire. More than 3 million mainstream users would definitely affect more than 3 million people!
Now, not only was he having a headache, but Ma Huateng was also having a headache.
Just a few days after the Red Envelope System appeared, there were really over a million people who switched to PP.
Both Ma Huateng and him were a little anxious. So far away, one move after another. Before they could catch up with the rhythm of scanning the code to pay, the Red Envelope System appeared.
The only thing they were glad about was that smartphones were not popular yet, and the 3G network had not been completely spread out.
Otherwise, if there were more than 100 million mobile users this time, it would be an unimaginable disaster.
However, it was not Ma Yun and Ma Huateng's original intention to count on these external factors and rejoice over these external factors. This was because they were afraid of Li Dong, and it would completely destroy their confidence.
Li Dong could vaguely hear Ma Yun's helplessness. Li Dong could not help but laugh. "Old Ma, what are you worried about?
First, there are only a few users using OL phones now, and it's impossible to expand the user base in a short period of time.
Second, the data behind this has already reached our limit of a few million users.
If it really reaches 10 million users, our server will not be able to handle it.
Third, this is also an opportunity for you guys.
If I really wait until the 3G network is completely spread out and mobile becomes the mainstream before launching a surprise attack, can you guys still keep up with the rhythm?
To be honest, you guys have to thank me because I don't want to force you guys to death.
I'm a magnanimous person, and I'm afraid that you guys will be played to death by me.
As the saying goes, it's lonely at the top. I, Li Dong, climb to the top alone and look around. No one can compete with me, and I'll be lonely.
Therefore, I'm giving you guys time to catch up to me.
I'm just a step ahead in the mobile field, and it's not time to completely kill you guys.
At this time, what you guys have to do is keep up with my rhythm. You don't have so much nonsense to complain to me.
I'm just snatching some of your users. For your scale, it's just a drop in the bucket. You should at least give me some soup. Look at you stingy, it seems like I've overestimated you! "
"You …"
Ma Yun was a little speechless, but he had to admit that some of what Li Dong said was quite right.
At this time, because of hardware limitations, although Li Dong made a series of big moves, the effect was not as fierce as waiting for a period of time.
There were threats from Alipay and QQ, and it was inevitable that there would be pressure, but the impact was not beyond imagination for the time being.
Li Dong was not lying when he said that he would give them a chance to catch up.
Nowadays, the PC was the mainstream.
This time, Far away did not connect to the Red Envelope System on the PC.
Of course, if it was really connected, Far away would not be able to handle it.
Li Dong was not lying when he said that Far away's servers and big data system were not enough to support the operation of more than ten million people.
Far away's layout in the field of big data was not early, and it was still not able to do extremely complex and huge calculations.
On the other hand, the Red Envelope System looked simple, just like a toy.
But in reality, it was connected to the Wan Tao Card, PP, and banks, multi-directional data calculations, security, and a series of other problems.
Of course, there was one more point that Li Dong did not mention.
That was, the payment license had just been issued, and Li Dong's Wan Tao Card had already attracted attention. Some things in the Red Envelope System involved too many financial products.
If there were hundreds of millions of people using it, this kind of change in financial data might cause the entire financial system to be vigilant.
Now, Li Dong was slowly infiltrating and using it on a small scale. When everyone accepted it, smartphones became common, and the 3G system was launched, some things would become a foregone conclusion.
Ma Yun could understand this concept of slowly encroaching.
Taking a deep breath, Ma Yun felt pressured. After a long time, he said, "Li Dong, seriously, did you or someone else come up with this idea?"
Li Dong laughed and said, "Of course not. Let me think, who came up with it? Oh right, I think it was Zhang Xiaolong and Lu Hongfei … "
"Are you kidding me?"
Ma Yun was instantly furious because Zhang Xiaolong came from Tencent, and Lu Hongfei came from Ali. Both of them were poached by Li Dong.
Li Dong's words were heart-wrenching.
If these people really came up with it, they would really be heartbroken.
Li Dong said, "It's true. They were the ones who came up with it. Think about it. Far away Technology has only been established for a short time, and we have no experience in this area. I have to say, your people are really capable. They have all kinds of creative ideas. Old Ma, I have to thank you and Brother Ma for your loyalty … "
"Get lost!"
Ma Yun hung up the phone. He did not believe Li Dong's words. This guy was definitely doing it on purpose!
But even if he did not believe it, Ma Yun hung up the phone and shouted to the outside, "Give me a copy of Lu Hongfei's information!"
The secretary outside the door was a little puzzled. This person had left the company for a long time, and his rank was not that high. Why would he want his information?
But as Old Ma's secretary, whatever the boss said, the secretary did not ask much. He quickly called the human resources department and asked them to bring the information over.
…
After hanging up the phone with Ma Yun, Li Dong realized that the Red Packet had become popular.
It was not that he did not pay attention to it, but he had been too busy these few days and had forgotten about it.
After getting someone to send his parents and children home, Li Dong got into the car, turned on his phone, and logged into PP to take a look.
But when he logged in, the messages were exploding.
He had not logged into these chat apps for a long time, mainly because he was too busy.
He did not have many friends and groups, but at this time, almost every group had messages, and almost all of his friends had sent him messages.
After looking for a while, as expected, the most popular thing these few days was the Red Packet.
Li Dong opened the Hua Xia Alumni Association group to take a look. Many people had @ him. He had not been online for the past few days, so he did not see it.
Li Dong took a quick look, then grinned and sent a Red Packet. He wrote, "Happy New Year to everyone in advance. Thank you for your support!"
The moment he appeared, the Red Packets were snatched up in an instant.
Then, Ma Huateng sent a series of slashing emojis.
Ma Yun was online at this time, and he quickly replied, "This bastard said that the Red Packet was created by Zhang Xiaolong!"
"I don't believe it!!!"
Brother Ma exclaimed one after another. He immediately said, "Li Dong, don't be so smug. You're a celebrity, after all. I'll take a screenshot and upload it to the Internet. Let everyone see your shameless face!"
"Agreed!"
"Shameless indeed!"
"Shameless indeed. Ten Red Packets for one yuan. I've never seen such a shameless person. Where's the admin, kick him out!"
"…"
The group was instantly in an uproar. As the group leader, Liu Chuanzhi was kicked out. Then, Li Dong received the news that he had been kicked out of the group!
…
In the car, Li Dong was stunned for a moment, then he cursed, "F * ck, Old Man Liu really kicked me! To think that I bought a car for your daughter. This old man is too much! "
As he was cursing, Liu Chuanzhi sent a message. "It's better not to offend the public. Let's avoid it for now."
Li Dong was speechless. He glanced at his phone and looked at it for a while. When he saw the Entrepreneur's Club group, he once again did something that offended the public.
Not long after, he received another message that he had been kicked out of the group by Old Man Liu.
Liu Chuanzhi's message followed at the same time. "You've done it again. There's no saving you. Be careful when you go out next time."
Li Dong hummed a tune and did not reply. He threw his phone away.
At the same time, tycoons from all over the country shook their heads and smiled bitterly. With this guy around, there would be no peace anywhere.
Today, the two Ma's were probably irritated enough. It was almost the New Year, and Li Dong would probably make this year's New Year very difficult.
…
Just as Li Dong was feeling smug.
The Xu family.
Hsu Shengzhe shook his head and sighed. "This bastard. I should avoid interacting with him in the future. He'll be beaten to death sooner or later. "Now that we're outside, I don't even dare to say that I know him. It's embarrassing. "When our daughter grows up, don't tell her that he's her godfather. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be beaten up every day."
Bai Yue Qin was also laughing. She said helplessly, "I just found out that he's this kind of person. Speaking of which, he seems to be quite popular. Didn't he offend many people? "I realized that these people don't seem to hate him. Even Zhang Jindong is trying to get him back."
Hsu Shengzhe shook his head and smiled. "This guy is a weirdo. You don't understand.
People like us are too calculative. Usually, when we interact, we're always amiable. After a long time, everyone gets sick of it.
"It's not an exaggeration to say that he's hypocritical.
"Although this guy is annoying, he's not hypocritical. He's one of the few straightforward people.
"In addition to his young age, the old men like to interact with him more.
"Of course, there's another important point. He's really capable. The strong are the core no matter where they go. Especially to us, we actually admire the truly strong more.
"If he only knows how to talk, I guarantee that he'll be abandoned by a dog."
When he said that, Bai Yueqin understood a little.
After a long while, Bai Yue Qin sighed. "It's a pity."
Hsu Shengzhe rolled his eyes. He was speechless. "Pity my ass. Who is Chen Wanting? Can she enter Li Dong's eyes?
To put it bluntly, Li Dong probably doesn't even remember other people's names.
Shen Qian, Hu Xiaorui, and even Qin Yuhan. Any one of these people is better than Chen Wanting.
Even Li Dong's secretaries are not worse than Chen Wanting.
Subduing Li Dong was not something an ordinary person could do.
You better not think about it. The marriage between him and Shen Qian has been set. Shen Qian is not easy to deal with.
She's like a little lamb in front of Li Dong. But after leaving Li Dong, he's also a ruthless person. I don't dare to provoke him.
Your best friend told her to give up early. Otherwise, she will disappear without anyone knowing. Don't complain to me. "
"Is it really that bad?"
Bai Yue Qin couldn't believe it. Hsu Shengzhe frowned. "What's so bad about it? There are some things you don't understand. In our eyes, some people's lives are worthless."
His words were a little cold, but Bai Yue Qin's heart trembled.
Because when he said this, Hsu Shengzhe said it calmly and matter-of-factly. His words were even a little cold-blooded.
Although she was married to Hsu Shengzhe, sometimes Bai Yue Qin felt that she didn't really understand this man.
Perhaps, only when one truly stood at their position and height would one be able to experience this kind of emotion.
Xu Shengzhe didn't care too much about it and didn't say anything more. He picked up the phone and called Li Dong. It was almost the New Year. It was time for that bastard to pay back the money he owed him!
