China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 599 597. Udoduo e-commerce creates miracles

It snowed unexpectedly in Hangzhou, covering this southern city in silver.

Although the temperature dropped sharply, this snow was very rare for many southerners, and there was an endless stream of people checking in on the remaining snow on the broken bridge.

But in the entire Ali Industrial Park, not a single employee came out to play in the snow, because the entire Ali Industrial Park was shrouded in oppressive dark clouds.

Boss Ma Yun's office.

"Lao Ma, go and eat something. Your body is the capital of revolution."

Zhang Ying, the veteran of Ali, felt very distressed when she saw her somewhat decadent husband after returning from Yanjing.

Ma Yun opened her eyes as she was taking a nap: "I can't eat, just drink some coffee."

"You haven't eaten anything since yesterday afternoon."

Zhang Ying had no choice but to make a cup of coffee for Ma Yun and advised: "I know you are under a lot of pressure, but it has been a miracle that our Ahri has gone from nothing to now in the past eleven years. If you think about it, everything will be fine." ”

"Miracle?"

Ma Yun took a sip of coffee. When she heard her wife's words, she raised her head and asked, "What about Cao Yu's Feiyu Group?"

Zhang Ying suddenly didn't know what to say.

When it comes to miracles, who can be more powerful than Feiyu? In just eight years, from a small film and television company, it has suddenly become a large group spanning entertainment, Internet, investment, and technology.

Cao Yu, who is less than thirty years old, has become the richest man in Asia.

How does this compare? Who can compare?
After a moment of silence, Zhang Yingcai said: "No matter what, you still have to eat. If something happens to you, what will the company do?"

"Hey"

Ma Yun let out a long sigh: "Today Feiyu's Youduoduo will be officially launched. This is a matter of life and death for Ali. I want to see what they look like and what are the differences, and then I can think of countermeasures. You Let’s eat first.”

"Then I'll stay with you."

Zhang Ying lost her appetite when her husband was in this situation, so she pulled up a chair and sat next to Ma Yun.

"Fortunately, I have you."

Ma Yun looked at her wife and felt a little warm.

The two of them just sat quietly in the office, with the images of Udoduo advertisements shining on their faces on the computer, flashing continuously.

At this time, there is less than an hour until Uduoduo is officially launched.

But since New Year's Day, Youduoduo has already started promoting it.

There doesn’t seem to be anything particularly new about giving newbies red envelopes when they sign up, tens of billions of subsidies, or celebrity endorsements.

But Ma Yun still felt pressure.

He felt that Cao Yu must have some tricks yet to come up, otherwise he wouldn't be so confident.

As for what the special move was, he couldn't guess.

Time passed by, and finally it was twelve o'clock at noon on January 15th.

"Drip drip"

The alarm set on Ma Yun's mobile phone suddenly rang. He was instantly excited, as if he heard the starting gun, and almost jumped out of his chair, startling Zhang Ying beside him.

"Hurry up! Youduoduo is online!"

Ma Yun picked up the mouse and clicked on Youduoduo's web link.

Zhang Ying also came over, wanting to see what Yuduoduo looked like that worried her husband.

His first impression of the Uduoduo homepage was that it was refreshing, without too many fancy advertisements, and it looked very good to the senses.

The first section at the top of the website is a limited-time flash sale area, as well as a nine-dollar sale.

Below you’ll find great deals from some of the biggest brands.

The rest are different product divisions such as clothing, food, beauty, digital, etc.

However, among the many sections, a special section of an agricultural and sideline products supermarket caught Ma Yun's attention.

Ma Yun narrowed her eyes: "Is this Cao Yu's idea?"

If Uduoduo just adds a supermarket for agricultural and sideline products, plus a limited-time flash sale, the rest seems to be no different from other online shopping platforms.

He clicked on the latest Huawei mobile phones in the boutique section with some suspicion, and found that the prices above were similar to those on other websites.

However, there is an additional sentence below: Buy together to get a better deal.

"Have you never seen this sentence in advertisements before?"

Ma Yun was a little curious, what does group buying mean? Could it be that if several people place an order together, there will be a discount?

He clicked on this sentence and found another reminder: Download the Youduoduo APP, send the product link to your friends, and help you chop. There are more discounts and surprises waiting for you. The more you chop, the more discounts.

"I rely on!"

Ma Yun immediately understood that this was the trick that Youduoduo had never exposed.

Moreover, he immediately realized that this move was simply terrifying.

Everyone will have the mentality of taking advantage. If a friend cuts the price, the price will be reduced. Then the user will not only enjoy the discount, but also develop a new user!

Zhang Ying looked at Youduoduo's creative design, which was different from any previous platform, and murmured: "In this way, they don't even have any publicity left..."

"Yes, Cao Yu...how much...does he still have in his brain?"

A strong sense of crisis made him sweat a little.

With the launch of Youduoduo, coupled with the traffic promotion on WeChat, Feigo Video, and Weibo, how will Ahri respond?

"Meeting, meeting!"

He stood up with a cry and asked Zhang Ying to gather people immediately to prepare for the meeting.

Zhang Ying said hurriedly: "Old Ma, it's dinner time after get off work. Why don't we wait until we get to work at two o'clock before having a meeting?"

"Let's discuss countermeasures first. If everyone can come up with a good countermeasure, we will have a holiday tomorrow!"

Ma Yun no longer has time to take care of eating, this meeting also has to be held!

Yanjing, Feiyu Science and Technology Park.

Cao Yu didn't eat either, but stood in front of the window and watched several employees playing football on the football field downstairs.

After buying Atletico Madrid, newcomers such as Neymar have not yet integrated into the team's tactical system. This season's record is not ideal and they have been in the middle of La Liga.

However, he has been in contact with several new coaches and will be replaced after this season.

"I have time to go to Spain during the Chinese New Year..."

Cao Yu was thinking about New Year plans when Cai Chongxin knocked on the door and came in.

"Mr. Cao, the number of downloads of our Uduoduo APP exceeds one million!"

"Well, I see."

This data was already within Cao Yu's expectation.

After half a month of advertising bombardment, and with such a huge subsidy, if the number of downloads cannot exceed one million per hour, the advertising will be in vain.

Moreover, the time he chose to go online was right after get off work for many white-collar workers, when everyone could surf the Internet after eating.

He turned around and said, "Mr. Cai, I have to go out in the afternoon. Give me a call in three hours and report the data."

"Okay Mr. Cao."

Cai Chongxin nodded and was about to leave.

But Cao Yu stopped him: "Mr. Cai, you have been busy for so many days, you should go and take a rest."

"Ah."

Cai Chongxin nodded, feeling a little warm in his heart.

Cao Yu has been in the company these two days and plans to take a good rest today and relax with Yang Shuxue.

During the Lunar New Year holiday some time ago, Huanyu Cinema was very busy. Yang Shuxue liked to do some things by herself and didn't take much rest. The two of them finally found time to go play basketball together to enhance their relationship.

After packing his things, he passed by the corridor and heard cheers from inside.

"Two million! Two million! It's amazing!"

"Yes, Mr. Cao's setting of bargaining is simply amazing!"

"The transaction volume has also increased! Five million!"

……

Hearing the cheers inside, Cao Yu just smiled lightly.

According to this trend, after the Spring Festival, as long as the number of APP downloads can exceed 100 million, it will only be a matter of time before Uduoduo seizes Ali’s market share.

"Shu Xue, you look good."

Arriving downstairs at Huanyu Group, Yang Shuxue got into Cao Yu's car.

Yang Shuxue looked at Cao Yu and said, "You look better. It seems that your e-commerce platform is very successful."

"good."

Cao Yu is not modest either. It is true that Youduoduo is very competitive in such an environment.

Anyway, the two of them were very familiar with each other. After chatting for a while, he asked: "Shu Xue, how is the filming situation of "If You Are the One 2" going?"

Yang Shuxue said: "The timing selected by Huayi is very favorable. 42% of the film schedule was scheduled in the first two days. When "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is released, based on box office data, it is estimated that it will adjust to 30 to 40%."

"So high?" Cao Yu was stunned. If there were 42% film schedules, the box office of "If You Are the One 2" would definitely explode in the first two days.

If the box office of this movie exceeds 600 million, the bet between himself and Wang Zhonglei will be lost.

Yang Shuxue also said helplessly: "There is no way. In those two days, except for "If You Are the One 2", which is your "Iron Man 2", there are no other blockbusters that can compete."

"call"

Cao Yu breathed out.

He knew that the original film "If You Are the One 2" was okay at the box office even though it had a lot of private stuff added to it.

However, in Feng Xiaogang's film this time, even the heroine Shu Qi was changed, which was a taboo.
Thinking of this, he said to Yang Shuxue: "Find some trolls, wait until this movie is released, find some shortcomings and amplify them online."

"Hey, our boss Cao has already learned how to use the navy? Aren't you afraid that you might be a bad learner?"

"I'm inherently bad. I use some means for some purposes. Isn't this normal?"

Cao Yu chuckled and didn't mind Yang Shuxue's teasing, and continued: "If I ask people to find out about Feng Xiaogang's cheating and create a wave of popularity on the Internet, I will definitely not let the box office of this movie exceed 600 million."

"no problem."

Yang Shuxue was actually just joking. She really hoped that Cao Yu would not imitate a bad person.

In a business war involving intrigues and intrigues, good and bad people cannot survive.

The two came to the golf course and just played for a while when Cai Chongxin called.

"Mr. Cao! Good news, the number of APP downloads has exceeded 6 million. Although the number of users is increasing slowly now, the peak period in the evening has not yet arrived."

"Six million?"

Cao Yu also didn’t expect that before four o’clock in the afternoon, the number of downloads of the Uduoduo APP exceeded 6 million. It seems that this trick of asking friends to help negotiate the price is indeed very effective.

Who doesn’t want deals?

And this is a real bargain, a real discount.

His Youduoduo is not like Pin Xixi, who hacked for a long time, but in the end couldn't get anything, and was completely lonely. In the end, the angry user uninstalled the software.

Just listen to Cai Chongxin's excited report on the phone: "Our transaction volume has also exceeded 50 million."

"Mr. Cai, don't be too excited. We are still far away from our daily transaction volume of 300 million. Let's take a look first."

The reason why Cao Yu set the goal of 300 million on the first day is because Taobao's single-day transactions are now around 2 billion, and the goal of 300 million is not too high.

"I believe it can be achieved. The peak of online shopping is at night."

Cai Chongxin came from Ali, so he is naturally familiar with the time of day when the transaction volume is the highest.

Moreover, Feiyu Group now controls cloud data. As long as it understands customer habits, it will push products they are interested in to users. In this way, is it difficult to achieve the goal of 300 million on the first day?
He didn't find it difficult.

In Hangcheng, unlike Cao Yu who was relaxing and playing golf, the meeting hosted by Ma Yun himself was still going on.

"How about it?"

"Mr. Ma, our transaction volume still has not increased substantially. Do we need to increase subsidies?"

"How can we add more? It won't even cover the cost!"

Ma Yun was very depressed.

The meeting lasted from 12:30 to 4 o'clock, but there was no progress at all.

Although I had made preparations before and allocated funds to prepare for a subsidy war with Uduoduo.

But after subsidies were released, the transaction volume did not increase significantly. On the contrary, Uduoduo transactions were growing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

"Cao Yu's move really can't be resolved? Everyone is probably still bargaining now. By night, their transaction volume will definitely explode."

Looking at the silent crowd, Ma Yun frowned.

As someone who already understands the rules of online shopping, he knows very well how scary Youduoduo is.

Bargaining is the favorite thing of Chinese people. When you sell something in the market, you will always haggling. Youduoduo has captured this mentality of consumers.

And in this way, their number of users will increase geometrically. If they can't stop it now, they will have no chance in the future.

What’s even more frightening is that Boss Cao is not short of money. He is not like other people who want to launch an online shopping platform and have to wait for financing.
At this point, that thief Cao is watching with tens of billions of dollars.

"Why didn't I think of this method before?"

Ma Yun felt deeply regretful.

Judging from the current situation, Youduoduo is simply menacing.

Finally, he gritted his teeth and said: "Then continue to increase subsidies. Even if we lose hundreds of millions, we must slow down the increase in Uduoduo users."

"Yes"

The answers from several executives were somewhat feeble.

At seven o'clock, Feiyu Group, cheers came from the company. Their number of users and software downloads are still increasing!

Clearly, Udodo is unstoppable!

"Mr. Cao, 230 million, our goal is almost achieved!"

Cao Yu, who was having dinner with Yang Shuxue, received a call from Cai Chongxin again, and the voice on the phone was very excited.

Cao Yu said calmly: "Mr. Cai, you haven't gotten off work yet? Remember to eat."

"I'll get off work in a moment. I have to wait for 300 million before I leave."

How can Cai Chongxin still feel hungry? The rising data is simply spiritual food.

Moreover, Boss Cao is so calm at this time, he is indeed a person who does great things.

"Pay attention to your health and get off work early."

Cao Yu hung up the phone, but within half an hour, the transaction volume exceeded 300 million. This time Cai Chongxin sent a text message.

"Mr. Cao, the transaction volume exceeds 300 million, and we will strive for 1 billion tomorrow morning!"

"Hopefully."

Cao Yu doesn't care about the one-billion-dollar goal just proposed by Cai Chongxin.

However, to achieve the best, it can also be used as a gimmick...

At this time, Yang Shuxue picked up a glass of red wine and congratulated her man.

"Congratulations, next year, it seems that your ranking on the rich list will be further improved."

"Hey"

Cao Yuhe drank a drink with Yang Shuxue, but sighed: "It's too cold at high places. I really don't want to be the richest man."

He was not in Versailles, but since the news that Liu Yifei had a child broke out, he felt that it was the best thing to be a quiet rich man and try to make people pay less attention to him.

But now that there is more and more money, it is really difficult to be quiet.

He shook his head and smiled: "I hope I can do whatever I want when I have money."

"What a beautiful idea! This is not the United States!"

Yang Shuxue glanced sideways at Cao Yu and said with a smile: "If you think it's too much money, then give it to me so that you don't have to spend it outside."

"I'm really willing to give it to you..." Cao Yu said with a smile: "But why do these words sound like an old couple?"

"Isn't it?"

"It's really similar."

Cao Yu took a piece of lobster meat and gave it to Yang Shuxue: "If you are an old couple, they usually don't live as a couple anymore, so let's do it tonight."

"Don't even think about it. Clean me up at night and wait in bed!"

"."

Cao Yu looked at the woman in front of him. This was the familiar Yang Shuxue.

At night, as the cold air that caused snowfall in the south was still raging across the country, the cold wind whistled on the windows.

However, Yang Shuxue's room was as warm as spring.

Cao Yu had just finished paying the public food and was taking a break watching TV with Yang Shuxue, who looked satisfied.

"Ding dong."

The phone next to me received another message, and it hasn’t been disconnected since tonight.

"Didn't you say you don't need to report?"

Today, Youduoduo's transaction volume has already exceeded 300 million. The goal has been achieved, and Cao Yu stopped the employees from continuing to report.

After complaining, he took the phone, but this time it was not issued by an employee, but by Lu Huateng.

"Xiao Cao, this is amazing. Today, the first day Uduoduo was launched, the transaction volume reached 800 million! This is simply an e-commerce miracle, Uduoduo seems to be taking off!"

"Eight hundred million?"

Cao Yu was also surprised when he saw this message.

He originally thought that 500 million would be enough, but he didn't expect that it would increase so much in just a few hours?

Sure enough, if you master the channels, you master everything.

He didn't care that it was almost ten o'clock, and immediately sent a message to the company's operations: "When the transaction exceeds one billion, we will start publicizing the results."

After sending the message, Cao Yu smiled and said: "Lao Ma, I wonder what you would think when you see such data?"
