Winning the new financial era

Chapter 534
"Mr. Zhang, something serious happened!"

In the middle of the night, Zhang Yida received an overseas call from Ma Jun.

"What happened? What a fuss!"

Waking up in the middle of the night, Zhang Yida spoke with a hint of anger.

"What is it?"

Zhao Erya rubbed her eyes and was woken up too.

"It's okay, you go to sleep!"

Zhang Yida glanced at her, then tiptoed out of the room.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Zhang Yida also gradually became sober, and calmly said: "What happened, don't worry, just speak slowly."

"Musical.ly is blocked!"

Ma Jun is really anxious to get angry now, otherwise he wouldn't have called Zhang Yida in such a panic.

"Blocked?"

Zhang Yida was startled into a cold sweat and asked, "Who? APP Store or Google Play?"

"No, it's the Indonesian government..."

After listening to Ma Jun's description, Zhang Yida gradually understood what happened. The eight domain name systems deployed by Musical.ly in Indonesia were blocked, and the application was completely paralyzed in Indonesia.

"Have you communicated with the Indonesian authorities?"

Zhang Yida gradually calmed down, now is not the time to pursue responsibility, but to find a way to solve the problem.

Every time the application is down for an hour, a large number of users are lost.

"It's so late at night, where can I go to communicate! I'm taking the nearest flight now and I'm expected to arrive in Indonesia in the morning."

Zhang Yida thought for a while and said, "You communicate with the relevant Indonesian authorities first. If there is no solution, I will take the next step."

Ma Jun responded, "Okay!"

Zhang Yida reassured, "Don't worry too much, if it happened in the United States, it would be a little tricky.

I also know a few friends in Indonesia, who should be able to help. "

Ma Jun calmed down a bit, he knew that Mr. Zhang had some contacts in Southeast Asia.

If it doesn't work, let the Yankees come and see if these monkeys are afraid of the Americans.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yida sent an all-staff email to shareholders and management.

Indonesia, as one of Musical.ly's largest overseas markets, has undergone such a major change, it is necessary to make relevant notifications.

Sun Zhengyi was the first to call. He spent tens of billions of dollars on Ruixiang. Apart from Zhang Yida, he may be the one who cares most about Ruixiang.

"Mr. Zhang, I have already understood the matter. The most urgent thing is to find out why the Indonesian authorities banned Musical.ly?

Don't worry, Softbank will definitely support you unswervingly.If you need help, just ask. "

Sun Zhengyi seemed very calm. Although he was also very worried about what happened to Ruixiang's development, he had been in the business world for decades and had seen many storms and waves. He knew very well that it was useless to worry.

"Thank you Mr. Sun for your support, if necessary, I will speak up.

When Ma Jun understands the situation clearly, we will hold a board meeting remotely tomorrow. "

Sun Zhengyi admired Zhang Yida's calmness very much, this is the material for great things.

Then, Blackshirt Capital, Zhenke Fund, various state-owned assets, Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street giants called.

All night, Zhang Yida didn't take much rest, and was busy answering the phone.

In the morning, Zhao Erya got up and saw Zhang Yida who was lying on the sofa and fell asleep, holding the phone in his hand.

Slowly remembered the midnight call last night, which woke her up first, and then she fell asleep again...

Judging by her boyfriend's attitude, last night must have been no small matter.

She didn't want to wake him up, so she brought a quilt from the room and was about to cover him.

Zhang Yida's phone rang again.

After being awakened, Zhang Yida opened his eyes and saw that it was dawn.

Although he felt weak all over his body and felt his body was hollowed out, Zhang Yida still struggled to get up and answered the phone.

"Mr. Zhang, I have already arrived in Indonesia, and I will communicate with their Minister of Communications immediately."

Zhang Yida gave some instructions, then quickly hung up the phone.

Looking at Zhang Yida who looked like a rabbit with red eyes, Zhao Erya felt distressed, and asked softly, "What happened?"

"Musical.ly is blocked in Indonesia!"

Zhang Yida felt dizzy, and probably slept less than two hours last night, which was a sign of lack of sleep.

Zhao Erya is very aware of Musical.ly's position in the Sharp Group. Although it is not the largest revenue contributor, it carries the hope of the global technology giant.

Being blocked by a country is very serious.

She was actually quite anxious, but she couldn't help Zhang Yida share his worries.

……

Zhang Yida rushed to the company in a hurry, and found that the management team had already arrived, and he was waiting for him.

Without any other opening remarks, Zhang Yida asked directly: "How is the situation now?"

Lu Qi replied, "The media has already carried out related reports, Indonesian Communications Minister Rudiantara said that in the past month, their department has been monitoring Musical.ly.

The reason for this ban is that there is a large amount of harmful content on the Musical.ly platform.

A lot of the content is negative, indecent, and very inappropriate for kids.

Additionally, in addition to monitoring Musical.ly, Rudiantara said its communications department received 2853 reports during this time period.

On the change.org website, there is also a petition with 63742 signatures calling for the Musical.ly app to be banned in Indonesia.

This website is a social welfare petition website founded in 2007. It currently has 1.8 million users and has a great reputation in Indonesia. "

Zhang Yida narrowed his eyes slightly, lay back on the chair, and thought about countermeasures.

He doesn't know what Musical.ly has in Indonesia, maybe even Ma Jun doesn't know.

Seeing Zhang Yida closing his eyes and resting his mind, the rest of the management also held their breaths and their faces were heavy.

"Is there anything on Musical.ly that they're suing us for?"

Zhang Yida opened his eyes and looked at Su Hua.

Su Hua scratched his head, "I really don't know this! Ma Jun may know better than me."

"Ma Jun is in Indonesia and is communicating with relevant departments."

Zhang Yida thought for a while and asked, "Is the Indonesian video reviewed by the domestic team?"

"Yes, the Asian market entered late, and it is still being reviewed by the domestic team."

Su Hua frowned and said, "We are now using a manual review and machine review mechanism, and the review of some aspects such as values ​​and social customs is very strict.

Videos that are vulgar, eye-catching, and money-worshiping will be suppressed.

In addition, our AI artificial intelligence technology is now very mature. After the suppression, these cases will serve as a model for the machine to learn further.

Logically speaking, there will be no omissions in the review. "

Zhang Yida shook his head, "This is the crux of the problem, how can the domestic review team understand the customs and cultures of other countries?

No, then even the review team has to be localized.Otherwise, similar problems will occur in the future. "

Su Hua nodded, this time he was really careless.

"Su Hua, you take the lead in forming an investigation team, and first interview the review team of the Indonesian video."

Although he was waiting for Ma Jun's news, Zhang Yida didn't want to be idle, so he had to understand the matter more clearly first.

……

Musical.ly was banned in Indonesia and spread to China, causing heated discussions.

Some people applauded, thinking that this kind of vulgar short video deserves to be blocked.

Others are worried about the future development of Musical.ly, which is the leading application in China, and they all hope that Musical.ly can become an existence comparable to YouTube and Facebook.

But now it seems that development is still difficult!
Penguin and Ari are also more concerned about the further development of the situation. Seeing that Ruixiang's development has been frustrated, they can breathe a sigh of relief.

If Ruixiang continues to expand, higher and higher valuations and a lot of cash flow will not be a good thing for the two of them.
