"Pony, why aren't you saying anything?"
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation. Ma Huateng didn't say much, so they asked.
"I'm thinking about how we should solve this problem."
Ma Huateng said, "You've heard the legal department's opinion. I'm afraid we can't win this case. Even if we win, we don't know how long it'll take. "
"Pony, so you're saying we shouldn't sue Baidu?"
"Of course we'll sue them, but we have to solve the current problem immediately."
"It's easy to solve."
Ceng Liqing said, "I think Huanyu Technologies won't be able to hold on for long. I've checked. Baidu's lowest bid is 10 cents per click. That's 10 cents per click. It doesn't seem like much, but it's a huge number. Our QQ has so many downloads every day. With so many clicks, they'll spend millions in promotion fees in less than a month. "
"Yes, if they promote it for a few months, they'll spend tens of millions. I don't believe they can hold on."
Everyone else nodded.
Ma Huateng smiled bitterly, "You're all too naive. I don't know if Huanyu Technologies can hold on. Even if they can't, our users will be snatched up by them in a few months. In other words, we'll be the first to fall. "
"Uh, that's true."
Everyone was also depressed.
It was true when they thought about it.
Even if Huanyu Technologies lost money, they'd still keep increasing their users with this move.
On the other hand, Tencent was like a river being cut off.
It was hard to say who would die in the future.
"How about this, we'll ban Baidu as well."
Chen Yizhou suggested an idea.
However, Zhang Zhidong, who was in charge of technology, vetoed the idea. "Our QQ can't use the method of blocking other Baidu links to counterattack. Besides, there's no point in doing so. Baidu is just a transit station. They don't have any links themselves. The links they search for are from other websites. Theoretically, we can't ban them even if we want to. "
Hearing this, everyone frowned.
Ceng Liqing said, "Pony, are you thinking that, like Baidu said, we will also participate in the bidding ranking? As long as we outbid Huanyu Technologies, we will be the first search engine."
However, if they were to participate in such a disgusting act, it would be a great humiliation.
On the other hand, if you really participated in the bidding, wouldn't that mean that you approved of Baidu's promotion?
"Heh, I didn't say that I would participate in the bidding."
Ma Huateng shook his head helplessly. "We can use the power of the administration."
"Administration?"
Everyone's eyes lit up. "Pony, you've met some …"
"Don't look at me like that. I don't know anyone."
"What I mean is that we should first use the power of public opinion to influence the administration."
"Don't forget, Penguin is also one of the four major portals."
Hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I'll start a special topic on the website immediately."
He did as he said.
Penguin did instant messaging.
However, when your IM reaches a certain level, you will be able to enter other domains.
For example, Penguin's first entry was the portal.
Relying on their QQ resources, although Penguin's portal wasn't very good and they didn't have their own news team, there were still a lot of people using QQ. In particular, Penguin even created a pop-up mini news recommendation window. Users who didn't have the habit of reading news also entered Penguin's portal through the continuous pop-up windows.
With such a large number of users and such a large IP flow, they couldn't be underestimated anywhere.
Immediately, there were big headlines. Penguin took action to deal with this crisis.
[Baidu's bidding ranking, threatening Internet companies.]
[Baidu suspected of improper operations, daring to do anything for money.]
[Baidu provided help for false advertising, difficult to distinguish between Li Kui and Li Gui.]
[Users are generally fooled, will you still use Baidu?]
[Baidu suppresses other companies with monopoly status, requesting the relevant departments to investigate.]
There were a dozen or so headlines, and the first one was Baidu.
A group of QQ users clicked on it and immediately cursed, "So that's how it is, I was wondering why the YY download page popped up when I entered QQ."
"I didn't expect Baidu to be so disgusting, saying that it's the world's largest Chinese search engine."
"Google didn't come to China, if they did, they would have destroyed Baidu."
"Requesting the relevant departments to investigate."
Regardless of whether this was illegal or not, it wasn't fair.
Although QQ wasn't as bad * ss as QQ in the future, it still accumulated a certain number of users.
Under the comments of so many users, Baidu's bidding ranking instantly became a hot topic.
Not only that, but in order to solve this crisis, besides attacking Baidu, Penguin also targeted YY in another aspect. Penguin's evaluation of YY as unfair competition, they couldn't compete with Penguin in a fair environment, so they used unfair methods … This also caused a group of QQ users to join in the criticism of YY. They left a comment saying that YY didn't need to be beaten to death.
Needless to say, this move was very effective.
After Penguin's topic and a large number of onlookers appeared, the relevant departments really took action.
They met with Baidu in Beibei.
Although the specific content of the meeting was not disclosed, there was no punishment.
However, Baidu finally compromised and stopped the bidding ranking with Huanyu Technologies.
"Not bad, Xiao Ma Ge still has some tricks up his sleeve."
After receiving a call from Baidu, they stopped the bidding ranking and returned the remaining funds to the company's account. Chen Yu admired Penguin. There was a reason why Penguin was able to do so well in his previous life. Penguin wasn't the only company that did instant messaging. There were so many companies doing it, but only Penguin became the number one and eventually monopolized the market. This wasn't without reason.
However, Chen Yu admired Penguin, but Chen Yu didn't just sit still.
Penguin's counterattack this time was sharp. They used their portal to influence public opinion, then used public opinion to influence the administration. In the end, not only did they solve Penguin's crisis, but they also gave Huanyu Technologies a punch.
What a beautiful move.
Since that's the case, let's have a direct confrontation.
Chen Yu immediately called Zhang Jianming and Xie Zhang over.
"Did everyone see the news on Penguin?"
"Boss Chen, we saw it."
"Very good, our direct confrontation with Penguin has begun."
Chen Yu nodded, "Since Penguin said that Huanyu Technologies is competing unfairly, then we'll let everyone in the country see who started the unfair competition first. Brother Jian, contact NetEase. We'll also create a topic. "
"NetEase?"
Zhang Jianming said, "Boss Chen, I don't know if NetEase will cooperate with us."
"Why not?"
Chen Yu said, "We had a good cooperation with NetEase before, so they would at least give us some face. Of course, that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that NetEase also wants to do instant messaging. "
Since NetEase also wanted to do instant messaging, then NetEase had no reason not to help Huanyu Technologies.
