The day after the charity banquet.
As Li Dong had expected, Li Dong and Far away's names appeared in the major media.
Spending tens of millions to bid for a nine-year-old child's graffiti was more eye-catching than Li Dong's subsequent donation of more than ten million in cash.
Not only the media in Jiangbei, but many domestic media also reported on Li Dong's move.
Of course, the major media also had different opinions.
Some media outlets questioned, "Is such charity a show of love or a publicity stunt?"
"Should the company make a show of the people in the disaster area?"
"We should loudly say 'no' to the publicity stunt of love!"
…
There were naturally praises and criticisms, and there were also media outlets defending Far away. Whether it was a publicity stunt or not, at least they paid with real money.
A private company that had been established for less than two years had spent tens of millions to invest in charity. Whether or not the company was suspected of hype, the kindness of Far away and Far away's head was unquestionable.
Moreover, this charity donation was not an isolated case. Far away had also carried out large-scale charity activities last year.
The head of Far away, Li Dong, was still very young and was also the future successor of charity. Some media outlets should not be so demanding of the company!
For a time, the major media outlets launched a fierce debate on this issue!
…
No matter how the media reported, Li Dong remained calm.
Anyway, his purpose was achieved. Whether it was praise or criticism, this time Far away was indeed popular.
Moreover, the fiercer the media's argument, the better. Li Dong could not wait for them to have a scolding war in the media every day.
At least from the current mainstream opinion, most people in society still praised Far away more than criticized it.
Just like Chen XX, who forced himself to do charity. Although society had repeatedly questioned the purpose of his charity, the general public generally still approved of him.
Moreover, Li Dong did not go as far as the other party. He just conveniently bought a painting. It was difficult for people to slander Li Dong even if they wanted to.
…
Global Building.
Li Dong received a call from Qin Yuhan.
Some media outlets in Beijing also reported on the controversy between the hype and charity.
When Qin Yuhan called, she was a little excited. She couldn't wait to answer the phone and said, "Li Dong, I admire you so much!"
Li Dong laughed involuntarily. "What's wrong with you today?"
Qin Yuhan gasped, "Li Dong, do you know? In the class just now, our Beijing University professor specifically used you as an example, saying that you are a real modern entrepreneur, not just a businessman! "
"Our professor also said that you have the noble qualities of a new-age entrepreneur! He combines ability and character, and has a high sense of social responsibility! "
Qin Yuhan repeated what the professor said in class almost word for word.
She was so happy and excited today.
Previously, when she saw some media smearing Li Dong's name, Qin Yuhan was so angry that she wanted to go up to the reporters and give them a good scolding.
But what she didn't expect was that because of the hype of the media in the past two days, even the professors of Beijing University paid attention to Li Dong.
Today, when the professor talked about corporate culture in class, she didn't know why they talked about Li Dong.
For Li Dong, a grassroots businessman in his early twenties, the professors of Beijing University were full of praise and even felt a slight regret that Li Dong didn't come from Beijing University.
At that moment, Qin Yuhan wanted to stand up and tell everyone that the Li Dong you are talking about is my boyfriend!
But she couldn't help it in the end. Despite this, Qin Yuhan was so excited that she didn't finish listening to the class.
As soon as the class was over, Qin Yuhan couldn't wait to call Li Dong.
In the eyes of Qin Yuhan, being praised by a professor of Beijing University was an honor that was even better than Li Dong earning tens of millions.
A young businessman thousands of miles away could make a professor of Beijing University speak out in support of him in a big class. How many people in the country could do this?
The professor wasn't Li Dong, nor was he an expert who was obsessed with fame and fortune. He was a highly respected scholarly scholar.
What he said in class today would be spread out later. I'm afraid that there will soon be media in society to help Li Dong whitewash, because the professor has a high status in the education world.
Qin Yuhan was really too happy. She was so happy that she forgot herself.
However, Li Dong didn't take it to heart. He didn't care about the gossip in society. It didn't matter whether he whitewashed or not.
As for being praised by a scholar, it was actually just that.
The influence of a professor of Beijing University was limited. He may be famous in academia, but in the mainstream media, the speech of a professor of Beijing University was not insignificant, but at least not many people would pay attention to it.
When Qin Yuhan calmed down, Li Dong smiled and said, "Then you should have stood up and told everyone that I was your boyfriend, so that there would be fewer flies around you."
Qin Yuhan laughed and said, "I won't. There were so many people. I'm embarrassed."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? Am I shameful? "
"You're annoying. That's not what I meant."
Li Dong listened to her rebuke and couldn't help but laugh. After a while, he asked, "How's the dessert house?"
"Fortunately, I fired two employees who chatted on the phone during working hours two days ago. Now the discipline is much better, and everyone has the spirit to focus on work."
Li Dong said disapprovingly, "You should have done this long ago. If it was up to me, I would have opened it all. Only you can bear it until now. "
Qin Yuhan sighed slightly and said, "After all, I'm an old man who has been here since the opening. If I had a choice, I wouldn't have done this."
Her dessert house had been open for almost half a year, and she hadn't fired anyone except those who left on their own.
Li Dong had said this before, and Qin Yuhan couldn't bear it.
But even the best patience couldn't stand the test of time. From small talk at the beginning, she often asked for leave, and now she didn't ask for leave at all. She could talk on the phone for several hours during working hours.
Qin Yuhan's patience had also reached the limit. She was not afraid of losing money, but people treated her like a fool, which made her disappointed.
Qin Yuhan rarely got angry, but that day she couldn't help it.
Five or six tables of guests were still waiting, but two waiters hid in the backstage and no one came out to serve them for seven or eight minutes.
If Qin Yuhan hadn't come over after class, she wouldn't have known the situation in the shop.
For a moment, Qin Yuhan really wanted to listen to Li Dong and fire them all. After all, if they didn't cover up for each other, others wouldn't be so bold.
But in the end, the woman softened and only fired the two people on duty that day.
After listening to Qin Yuhan, Li Dong shook his head slightly. But he had said this more than once, and Li Dong was too lazy to say it again.
After chatting with Qin Yuhan for a while, Liu Qi knocked on the door and came in.
Seeing Li Dong on the phone, Liu Qi didn't say anything.
Seeing that, Li Dong said to Qin Yuhan on the phone, "I have something to do, talk to you tonight. Oh, I may not have time to visit you in Beijing during this period. Come back during the holidays, or I can ask Old Zhou to pick you up in Beijing. "
Qin Yuhan said considerately, "Don't bother Big Brother Zhou. I will fly back on my own during the holidays, and you can reimburse my travel expenses."
Li Dong suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, don't mention the travel expenses. When I have money, I will buy a plane to pick you up."
Qin Yuhan covered her mouth and chuckled. She was happy in her heart, but she said angrily, "You only know how to brag."
"Who is bragging? If it wasn't because I don't have enough money recently, I can buy a private plane now! "
"Okay, okay, okay. You have money, you are capable, okay? Do your work, remember to rest more, and don't forget to eat … "
While Qin Yuhan was nagging, Li Dong hung up the phone.
Liu Qi saw Li Dong hung up the phone and said with a smile, "General Manager Li, chatting with your girlfriend on the phone again?"
Li Dong scolded, "Who is chatting on the phone?"
Liu Qi laughed and did not expose him. She coughed lightly and said seriously, "Director Shen just called and asked you to go downstairs to take a look."
Hearing that it was Shen Qian's call, Li Dong quickly got up and put on his coat. He asked, "Did she say what it is?"
Liu Qi said, "It should be about the commercial system. A few days ago, I heard that the technical team is testing it, and Director Shen is looking for people to try it out."
Hearing this, Li Dong was excited. Finally, the platform was built!
It was already the end of March since Liu Hong and the others joined in February.
Logically speaking, it should not take that long to build a platform within a month and a half. However, the few trial versions that were created were all overturned by Li Dong.
As a person who was reborn, Li Dong did not dare to say that he was very knowledgeable.
But in terms of user experience, Li Dong dared to say that there were not many people in this world who were better than him to evaluate.
The first two trial versions of the commercial system were destroyed by Li Dong, and Shen Qian was going crazy. This was the third time that they were overthrown and redone. Since Shen Qian dared to ask him to go over, she should have a good chance of passing.
Li Dong put on his coat and said as he walked out, "Go and inform Director Sun and Director Wang to go and take a look."
"Director Sun has already gone over, and Director Wang is not in the company."
"Then forget it, let's go too."
…
They hurried to the floor where the e-commerce department was located.
In the office area, a group of people gathered around the testing machine. From time to time, Liu Hong would instruct the people beside him to record something.
Almost no one saw Li Dong's arrival. In the end, it was Chen Feng who noticed Li Dong at the outermost area.
Seeing that Li Dong had arrived, Chen Feng hurriedly shouted, "General Manager Li is here. Everyone, make way!"
The crowd parted, and Li Dong saw Sun Tao sitting in front of the computer, clicking the mouse.
Hearing that Li Dong had arrived, Sun Tao stood up and smiled, "General Manager Li, come and try it. I feel that the effect is very good."
Shen Qian, who was beside him, also said with a proud face, "Of course it's not bad. We worked overtime for more than half a month without rest to finalize the 1.3 version."
"We referred to General Manager Li's previous two opinions and made a lot of changes. Some of the programs were completely redone. If General Manager Li is not satisfied with this, then I dare say that there are not many shopping malls in the country that can meet General Manager Li's requirements. "
Seeing her proud face, Li Dong squinted his eyes and smiled, "Don't brag. I will know after I try it. Don't be too full of yourself, or you will be slapped in the face later. "
Shen Qian's face darkened.
This was not impossible. They were also full of confidence in the previous two times. They thought that even if the shopping mall was not as good as Taobao, it would not be much worse.
But every time Li Dong tried it, he would find a lot of problems, and they could not refute him.
Because Li Dong was not deliberately looking for trouble, and it was impossible that he was looking for trouble on purpose. There were indeed many things that they did not notice.
Now facing Li Dong's criticism, they did not dare to believe that Li Dong would be satisfied.
