Rebirth starts from e-commerce

Chapter 514

After TikTok went online abroad, it quickly became popular.

Although the similar competing product Musical.ly was established earlier, it has accumulated a lot of users first.

But at this time, Musical.ly didn't have any funds, and the founders were struggling to find their first financing.

And Luoxiu held a large sum of money invested in Uber and crushed his competitors for no reason.

This is the first time he feels that he can use money to fight his way out.

Previously, I faced richer opponents like BAT, and I could only rely on foresight and skill to win with difficulty, or barely be defeated.

But this time, it was as if Liushen pretended to go out and directly hit the whiteboard outfit opposite.

The two feelings are different.

But Luo Xiu also knows that the current Musical.ly cannot be regarded as the real opponent of TikTok.

TikTok is still too small to really touch the interests of those Internet giants in Laomei.

In the future, the real rivals should be Facebook, or even Google, the world's Internet hegemony.

Although the style of TikTok is different from theirs, there is only so much Internet time and so much advertising costs. If you get more, others are destined to get less.

Just like in China, Penguin has shifted its biggest competitor from Ali to Byte.

Luo Xiu felt inexplicably excited when he thought that he would be a dragon crossing the river in the future, challenging other local snakes in a foreign country.

This analogy is not quite right. Judging from his size, he is a giant dragon, and Luo Xiu is now a snake?No, it should be earthworms.

……

After TikTok gained a little fame abroad, it was quickly reported by domestic media.

In particular, they discovered that the founder of TikTok turned out to be Luo Xiu, which aroused heated discussions among netizens.

"I heard that the reason why Luo Xiu sold part of Uber's equity was to use the money to build a short video app abroad."

"I heard from fellow students studying abroad that many young people now like to play TikTok, and they find it very fresh."

"Why don't you invest in the country after selling the money? Why don't you donate the money to poor children in mountainous areas?"

"The rich people have gone abroad, which shows that the domestic investment environment is not good."

"I heard that the development team is in China, and the things we made ourselves can't be used by Chinese people. They are only used by foreigners. Based on this, I will be Hei Luoxiu for the rest of my life."

"Not too black, add me."

……

Luo Xiu felt a little speechless when he saw the reviews on the Internet.

However, since he is also a big V with tens of millions of fans, as an Internet expert, he knows that the most effective way to clean up is to transfer the black material to others and find someone to take the blame.

And the person who is responsible must be the kind that everyone hates and wants to spit when passing by.

For example, Li Shan used to help Luo Xiu take the blame.

So Luo Xiu felt aggrieved and voiced on the Internet:
"The reason why TikTok is launched overseas is that the domestic traffic fee is too expensive, 5 yuan is only 30M, I don't want you to waste these traffic."

What is the saying?As long as you scold China Unicom, we are good friends.

The same words can also be substituted into the national football team, A shares and housing prices.

"Shocked, the youngest billionaire in China was forced to go abroad because he couldn't afford the traffic fee."

"Don't hack China Mobile, do you know how fast China Mobile's 4G network is? I forgot to turn off the data when I went to bed yesterday, and the house will belong to China Mobile when I wake up today."

"Today I rode an automatic car to work. A reporter interviewed me and said, now that 4G network speed has been opened, what changes have taken place in my life? I sighed and said, I used to drive a big Benz because I forgot to turn off my phone one night flow."

……

Netizens' anger turned from Luo Xiu to the communication operator.

After all, in terms of recruiting gangsters, ten Luoxiu are no match for one China Mobile.

But they are also used to being scolded, and now being made up a few jokes is not painful to them.

No matter how much you scold, can you still not use your mobile phone?
Can you leave China Unicom Telecom with your mobile phone?
However, Luo Xiu blamed the operator, not because he had nothing to do, nor was he following the trend.

Just using this excuse to see if the policy of "speed increase and fee reduction" can be accelerated.

In the original history, this policy will not be proposed until next year, and then the price will drop step by step.

It is not impossible for companies to exert pressure now to speed up the implementation of this policy.

After all, the country does not want to affect the development of the mobile Internet industry because of traffic tariff issues.

Sure enough, as Luo Xiu expected, the superior quickly sent someone over to have an in-depth conversation with him.

The content mainly revolves around one theme, that is, the impact on our Internet industry after the traffic fee reduction.

Regarding this point, later generations have actually set the tone.

Luo Xiu can naturally come to a conclusion with certainty: "According to the survey report released by CNNIC, the number of instant messaging users on our mobile phones this year is 5.08 million. This is a very large demographic dividend, enough to give birth to several world-class Internet companies. Let's rival America in this industry."

"Boss Luo, is it a bit exaggerated for you to say that?"

"Is it an exaggeration? It will be confirmed soon."

What Luo Xiu said was so sure, but in fact, of course, it was a bit exaggerated.

He used to be more modest in speaking, he could do 10% of things, he usually said he could do 8% of things, leaving 2% ​​for himself.

Later, Luo Xiu discovered that when you say 8%, others sound like you can only do 5% at most, and then give you 3% of the resources.

Because other entrepreneurs are too good at bragging.

The fact that you can only do 5% is often blown to 20%.

Therefore, people often fold in half and then fold in half the words that come out of the boss's mouth.

As a rare honest person among them, Luo Xiu suffered a lot from this.

Slowly, he also learned to blow out the cowhide first, and get the resources first before talking.

And compared to others, he can at least always get things done, worthy of the resources given to him by the country.

"The country will soon promote speed increase and fee reduction, but correspondingly, Mr. Luo, can you move TikTok back to China?"

Luo Xiu smiled and said: "It's not necessary, as long as the traffic fee is reduced, our domestic version of TikTok will be launched simultaneously."

"Then Mr. Luo, just wait for our news!"

"Thank you so much!"

Luo Xiu got up quickly, shook hands with his opponent, and sent him out the door himself.

Not long after, at a symposium on the country's economic situation, Luo Xiu was invited to give a report.

At the meeting, he made a detailed analysis report on the relationship between traffic charges and the Internet economy.

It is pointed out that the improvement of network speed and the reduction of traffic charges will greatly promote the development of my country's mobile Internet industry.

Luoxiu's report was quickly responded by relevant departments, and "increasing Internet speed and reducing Internet fees" was put on the agenda.

Various operators have also responded to the call and introduced relevant plans.
