3rd of September.
The long-delayed Weibo was finally online!
9 AM.
Far Away Mall.
When Li Dong registered his account and completed the authentication, the entire technical department was filled with thunderous applause.
It was finally online!
It had been nearly a year since the concept of Weibo was proposed!
The development of Weibo was not difficult. If it was fast, it would only take a month. However, because Li Dong made suggestions to improve it from time to time and waited for the breakthrough point, it took a year for Weibo to be online.
Even the mall was not so slow. This was the longest project since the establishment of Far Away Mall.
Liu Hong looked excited and said to Li Dong, "General Manager Li, the first Weibo post will be posted by your account."
"Me?"
Li Dong was a little surprised, "What should I post?"
Everyone was dumbfounded. What are you posting? You are the boss. Of course, you should decide.
Li Dong also knew that he had asked in vain. He pondered for a moment and typed a line of words. Then, he chose to post.
Everyone looked at it. When they saw the message posted by Li Dong, many people could not help but laugh.
There was a line of words on the page — I am Far Away Li Dong, the nation's prince charming. I welcome everyone to watch and follow me.
There was nothing wrong with the first and last two sentences. The key was that the title of "nation's prince charming" was not something to be proud of.
After all, he was a well-known entrepreneur in the country. Everyone felt that the boss was not very reliable.
Seeing that everyone was holding back their laughter, Li Dong also laughed, "There's nothing funny. Weibo brings joy to people. If everyone talks seriously, what's the point? The theme of Weibo is to be close to the people and to watch. Otherwise, it would be boring if it were all official comments. "
When everyone heard this, they all had a thoughtful expression.
Li Dong did not say anything more. He changed the topic and said, "You can contact East Star Entertainment. Let the celebrity artists that we contacted come to Weibo to try out the effect."
"Okay, I will arrange it immediately."
Liu Hong hurriedly responded. He was also nervous about Weibo's launch.
Just as everyone was staring at the data, someone replied to Li Dong's Weibo post.
"Is it really Li Dong?"
"I am number one!"
"I think it's fun. Can Li Dong see our messages?"
"It must be fake. If it was real, who would call himself the nation's prince charming?"
"I don't know, but this Weibo was developed by Faraway Group. It shouldn't be fake, right?"
"…"
In less than ten minutes, Li Dong's message had received dozens of replies.
At this time, Li Dong could not help but be surprised. "These guys are so fast?"
This time, Faraway Group did not publicize it on Weibo.
Of course, it did not mean that there was no publicity. At the very least, Far Away Mall and PP had done some publicity. Otherwise, who would know what Weibo was?
Li Dong just did not expect it to be so fast. People should not have learned how to use the message he just posted, but there were dozens of replies immediately.
Seeing Li Dong's surprise, Liu Hong, who just finished the phone call, glanced at the data and then said happily, "General Manager Li, there are more than 10,000 registered users!"
"So many?"
Li Dong was also happy at this time. "I thought without relying on the portal, we would not be able to …"
He was just about to say Sina, but he immediately reacted and coughed. "I thought there was not much overlap between mall users and Weibo users. It seems that everyone has a curious mentality."
As he spoke, Li Dong began to reply.
"I am the real Li Dong. Everyone can look at the authentication symbol behind my name. Those with authentication are real people. As for how to authenticate, everyone can look at the details."
"Wow, it's really Boss Li!"
"Li Baoyi, I love you!"
"The nation's prince charming. I didn't expect Li Baoyi to be so cute. Li Baoyi, do you need a bed warmer?"
"The person above, go away. Let me do it!"
"Li Baoyi, can you tell us if you are sleeping in a golden house?"
"I heard your toilet is made of gold. Is that true?"
"…"
The moment Li Dong replied, the Weibo comments section became lively.
Knowing that the real Li Dong appeared, many people were quite excited.
It was rare to see billionaires at this time, and Li Dong was still so young and an idol of the younger generation.
Usually, people would not be able to come into contact with people like Li Dong. Now that they suddenly had close contact with him, it was hard not to be lively.
Li Dong's fans kept increasing, and not long after, the number of fans exceeded 10,000.
Of course, the reason why it was so fast was related to the recommendation on Weibo's homepage.
As the big boss of Weibo, he still had this privilege.
Seeing that the topic was getting off track, people even started to ask if Li Dong was good in that area. Li Dong quickly replied, "I won't be chatting with you guys today. I have something to do later. I'll reply to your questions one by one when I have time."
After typing this, Li Dong stood up and exhaled. He smiled and said, "It seems like the effect is pretty good. These guys have grasped the essence so quickly. They're much better than me."
This was not a lie. Li Dong remembered that when he first came into contact with Weibo in his previous life, it took him a long time to figure out how to follow and how to post messages.
But now that it had just been launched, so many people had learned it.
Liu Hong, who was next to him, flattered, "That's because General Manager Li gave good instructions. All the operations were simplified, easy to learn and understand …"
Li Dong smiled and waved his hand. "Alright, don't flatter me. Weibo couldn't have become what it is today without your efforts."
As he spoke, Li Dong looked at the time and said, "I still have something to do here. I need to go to Jiangzhou University. You guys keep a close eye on things from now on. Pay attention to the censorship of information. Don't allow information that doesn't meet the requirements to appear on Weibo. "Let's see how it goes today. There shouldn't be a second company that can compete with us in the short term. But this thing is easy to develop. There will soon be strong competitors in the market. This month is the best time for us to gain a foothold. You guys must be prepared! "
"Understood!"
Everyone's heart tightened, and they quickly replied loudly.
Weibo was not difficult to develop, especially for the few web portals that had experience in blogging. They could imitate it with a little effort.
Far away had the mall and PP to attract traffic. The web portals were more effective in attracting traffic.
If not for Far away taking the lead, they might not be a match for these web portals.
Seeing that everyone was serious, Li Dong smiled and said, "It's good that you take it seriously. But don't act like you're treading on thin ice. Something developed in a month or two will definitely be shoddy. How can it compete with us? As long as we create more topics that everyone is interested in, we'll be able to gain a foothold in no time. "
After saying that, just as Li Dong was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something. He opened the Weibo page again and took a selfie with his hands crossed.
Very soon, Li Dong posted a second message — Welfare, Prince Charming Building!
Everyone in the technical department was dumbfounded. So this was how Weibo worked?
Also, when did their boss learn to do this? What was this? According to the popular saying in the future, this should be called acting cute.
Li Dong did not care if they were shocked or not. He smiled and said, "Yes, we'll create some topics appropriately. Let those celebrities do their part and show off their beautiful photos. "
After saying that, Li Dong left immediately.
He still had things to do at Jiangzhou University. Today was Jiangzhou University's opening ceremony and Chen Lang was going to attend. He had to intercept him before his speech ended.
It was only after Li Dong left that the technical department came back to their senses. One by one, they hurriedly gathered in front of the computer that Li Dong was using earlier.
After refreshing Weibo, the second message had already received more than a hundred replies!
"So handsome!"
"Li Dong, I love you!"
"Li Baoyi, marry me!"
"National Prince Charming!"
"…"
Seeing that the number of replies and fans kept increasing, Liu Hong scratched his head and said, "General Manager Li's ability to attract fans is much stronger than the A-list celebrities. If I had known this earlier, I would not have hired celebrities. I would have just let General Manager Li be the spokesperson himself."
Everyone burst into laughter. However, at this moment, some people also realized something.
After all, Weibo was still quite different from blogs and traditional media.
Regardless of whether it was traditional media or web portals, people like Li Dong would not have such "frivolous" moments.
Most of the time, people would only see successful entrepreneurs who had been packaged.
However, on Weibo, everyone saw another way of expressing themselves.
…
Just as Li Dong was on his way to Jiangzhou University, Weibo went viral!
The netizens were discussing Weibo, including the screenshots of the few messages that Li Dong had just posted, as well as the selfie with his hands crossed.
Nowadays, few people who played computer games did not know Li Dong.
However, this was the first time that people had seen Li Dong in this way.
As soon as someone posted the screenshots on various forums, the replies below were all asking what kind of forum it was.
…
Of course, Li Dong did not know about all this yet.
At this moment, Li Dong was strolling on the campus of Jiangzhou University.
He had not been to Jiangzhou University for a long time.
Ever since the anniversary last year, he had not been here even once.
As a matter of fact, he was still a student of Jiangzhou University. He had not suspended or quit school. He was a legitimate student.
In the history of Jiangzhou University, Li Dong was probably the only student who had skipped classes for several years and had not been expelled.
However, no one had ever doubted this. The teachers and students of Jiangzhou University were extremely proud. How could they expel Li Dong just because he skipped classes?
Currently, Li Dong was the face of Jiangzhou University. Because of Li Dong, the number of students at Jiangzhou University had increased a lot.
Every year, a large number of admirers of Li Dong would choose Jiangzhou University. Moreover, the Faraway Group had set up scholarships at Jiangzhou University. Graduates of Jiangzhou University could choose Faraway Group first. With all these benefits, who would be stupid enough to push Li Dong away?
This time, Li Dong was very low-key when he came to Jiangzhou University.
No staff from the university came to pick him up, so he put on a cap himself.
This time, he was mainly trying to poach Chen Lang over to help him. He made it such a big deal. If Huarun Group found out about it, it would not be good for them to interfere.
Because the Start-of-Term Ceremony had already started, and most of the senior students had classes.
Wearing a cap, Li Dong walked on the campus path. Not many people paid attention to him.
After walking for seven or eight minutes, he arrived at the auditorium.
Today's Start-of-Term Ceremony would be held in the auditorium. Before Li Dong entered the door, he could already hear the applause coming from inside.
