After being reborn, I also want to fall in love

Chapter 351: Suffering on Behalf of the Emperor

In fact, Chen Shuo was not panicked at all. After all, short videos appeared much earlier than the public imagined, but they did not make a big splash, far less than the subsequent boom in short videos that everyone was watching.

The popularity of short videos is due to the right time, right place and right people, but the cost of that time is a bit high for the whole world.

Let’s not talk about this, it’s all in the past.

However, when Chen Shuo thought about the high probability that he would have to wear a mask again, he felt a little upset.

So Chen Shuo is not in a hurry when it comes to time.

The reason why Jiangbao was asked to bring out the finished product within a month was simply because the amount of the contract he signed at the foot bath club had far exceeded Chen Shuo's imagination.

Isn't this a way to lose your motivation?
No, I have to urge him.

The heads of the R&D department left first, and those who were still in the conference room were a group of people with a lot of creative ideas.

As we all know, as long as men get together, a king of ideas will automatically emerge.

"I have an idea, but I don't know whether I should tell you about it or not."

Chen Shuo spoke with a smile, then glanced at the people below.

Chen Shuo has some opinions on the crackdown on the Manjiao APP: "Why not just report it? Find more trolls and report it like crazy. But in principle, as the chairman, I am definitely not aware of this matter."

Everyone: "?"

"I am the chairman and the face of a company. I have a very good reputation now. Except for some trolls, everyone else on the Internet is praising me."

Chen Shuo explained his reasoning: "So I can't do anything that would damage my reputation."

"but."

Chen Shuo patted Guo Zhengyun on the shoulder, then looked at everyone present: "You can."

"Because you guys don't have any image baggage."

"."

Does it make sense? It makes a lot of sense.

Chen Shuo also felt that he was right.

Guo Zhengyun pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose. He also figured it out. This matter needs to be led by someone with status and position within the group. There is no one else except him.

But before that, Lao Guo still wanted to save the situation.

"Boss Shuo, there is actually a way."

Guo Zhengyun said: "We can suppress our opponents through legitimate means, such as discussing with Echeng to prohibit the sharing of Kuaishou links on WeChat and close the access port."

"We can also say hello to Weibo. As long as these two traffic monsters stop supporting the slow-footed, we can win without any effort."

Someone nodded silently.

Chen Shuo also agreed. After touching his chin, he suddenly smiled brightly: "Old Guo, I really didn't expect you to have such a skill."

Guo Zhengyun thought Chen Shuo was really praising him, and was about to say something humble when he found that Chen Shuo had already held both of his hands.

Chen Shuo's eyes lit up: "You and Mr. Ma are father and son, why are you telling me now?"

Guo Zhengyun stared at Chen Shuo in a daze, and stammered, "Boss Shuo, I, I have no blood relationship with Boss Ma."

Chen Shuo: "We are not father and son, so why do you want them to ban the Slow Foot APP?"

Guo Zhengyun: "Didn't you and Mr. Ma hit it off right away and have a relationship like father and son?"

"No, I already have a father, I'm not going to have another one."

Guo Zhengyun spread his hands and said, "Then I have no choice but to report it."

In fact, Guo Zhengyun’s idea is correct, but Mimi Technology just does not have the ability to do it.

Later, a major event happened in the Internet industry. Luo Yonghao, Zhang Yiming, and Wang Xin of Kuaibo launched three social apps they developed independently on the same day, officially challenging WeChat.

This is actually a big deal, and many people, mainly within the industry, are just waiting to see what happens.

But there was hardly any public opinion in the outside world, because most people had never heard of those three social software, except for those who bought Luo Yonghao's Hammer phone.

Why?

Echeng directly banned the three software on WeChat, prohibiting any links about the three software in the chat interface and Moments, and even the chat content cannot be mentioned.

Then those three softwares died.

Luo Yonghao was involved in mobile phones and the Internet, and owed a lot of debts. In the end, he paid off hundreds of millions of dollars by selling goods through live streaming.

Therefore, it is important for people to know themselves and do what they are good at. Lao Luo is good at talking, so don't think about other things.

This is similar to the tall fat guy. He has talent, but his butt is crooked. He knows nothing about anything else and is a laughing stock.

"Announce the news that Mimi Technology is going to enter the short video platform."

Chen Shuo stood up and walked to the door before adding, "If you lose, I'll fire all of you."

After saying this, President Shuo strode away.

Guo Zhengyun took out a tissue and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Several leaders of the short video team came over and expressed their sincere encouragement and sympathy.

"Old Guo, it's okay. You took the blame for President Shuo this time, and your position will be more stable."

"That's right. We wanted to take the blame, but Mr. Shuo didn't like it."

"Don't worry about it. I'll arrange some cosplayers to have a drink with you tonight."

"."

Kuaishou Headquarters
Co-founder Yin Xin knocked on the door of Chairman Chen Yixiao's office and said with a serious expression: "Just now, Mimi Technology announced that it will enter the short video field and will release a product that will directly compete with us."

Chen Yixiao and Yin Xin are both graduates of Northeastern University. They are also considered rising stars in the Internet industry. In just a few years, they transformed a pure tool application into a short video community, which was a huge success.

But the talents of these two pale in comparison to Chen Shuo.

They only have the Manjiao APP, but Chen Shuo, on the other hand, owns the country's largest live streaming platform, two-dimensional video platform, e-commerce platform, and also a food delivery platform.

At the moment, the scale is completely different.

So when Chen Yixiao heard the news, he felt nervous: "Isn't Chen Shuo sick? Why does he want to get involved in everything?"

“Does he understand short videos? Why does he want to do it?”

Yin Xin sat down, and at this time another co-founder, Su Hua, came in. He graduated from Tsinghua University.

"I think Chen Shuo will definitely pose a threat to us."

Su Hua said in a serious tone: "Chen Shuo has the largest live broadcast platform, and one of his subsidiaries is the leading MCN agency. There are countless influencers under his umbrella. Now, more than half of the top Internet celebrities are firmly in his hands."

"We have contacted several people privately before, but all came back empty-handed. In addition to the harsh contracts, those top internet celebrities almost don't believe that they can continue to make a living in the Internet industry without Chen Shuo."

Poaching top internet celebrities is a common practice used by live streaming platforms nowadays, especially those gaming anchors, whose net worth is ridiculously high.

In later generations, there is a clear line for judging anchors, that is, when you start broadcasting, can the number of online viewers remain at 10+?
As long as you cross this line, you will be a well-deserved big anchor and top internet celebrity.

Even with the later Tik Tok, there are only a few anchors who can maintain 10+ followers, and they are all male anchors. There is not a single female anchor in this group.

This means that Kuaishou still has no pillar. Although everything is going crazy, the key point is the word "chaos".

Here, the content is indeed a bit vulgar, but the young men and women can't help but love to watch it.

Chen Yixiao crossed his legs and said to the two founders, "We all know Chen Shuo's approach. When he started live streaming, he created so many hits on his own that even now there are still internet celebrities rehashing old stuff."

"If you run an e-commerce platform, you should give out red envelopes and urge users to actively promote the platform." Su Hua continued, "These don't matter. When his A station dealt with B station, he directly spent money to catch all the high-quality UP hosts on B station. This person does things without leaving any way out."

Yin Xin looked at Chen Yixiao and said, "Don't cross your legs."

These two are alumni and their relationship is closer than Su Hua's. They usually talk to each other in private without any respect.

Chen Yixiao didn't put down his legs, and said unhappily: "You may be nervous, but how does my crossing my legs bother you?"

Yin Xin replied: "Chen Shuo likes to cross his legs. If you do the same now, wouldn't it be like telling others that the chairman of Manjiao is imitating the chairman of Mimi Technology?"

Chen Yixiao: “.”

"Fuck, when did crossing legs become Chen Shuo's exclusive action?" Chen Yixiao was very unhappy.

"You're better than him. This is your signature move."

Yin Xin reminded him, "Don't put your hands in your pockets either. Chen Shuo likes to put his hands in his pockets wherever he goes."

Su Hua waited until the two of them finished arguing before he slowly said, "Guess what Chen Shuo will do to us?"

As he was speaking, the secretary knocked on the door.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. and Mr. Two, many top anchors on several platforms have been reported in large numbers. Some of their previous inappropriate remarks have been dug out and circulated everywhere on Weibo."

"The relevant departments sent an inquiry letter."

"what did they say?"

The secretary looked a little unhappy: "Let's ban a few of them to serve as a warning to others."

After that, the secretary handed over a list of anchors who had violated the rules.

Chen Yixiao took the list and glanced at it. He immediately couldn't sit still and stood up.

"Damn it, he's not giving me any chance to survive, is he?"

Yin Xin couldn't sit still any longer: "I'll make a phone call now and try to use some connections to see if I can get a lighter sentence."

Su Hua was also ready to start working: "I will ask the public relations department to issue a rebuttal and denounce the bad behavior of the competing company!"

Mingda, male dormitory

Chen Shuo returned to the dormitory with a laptop in his arms. He pushed the door open and shouted, "Stop masturbating. Get out of bed and watch something good."

He Yongyuan and the other two got out of bed and the four heads quickly gathered together.

"Take a look."

The content department combined the dance that Chen Shuo had created when he was running a live streaming platform, and created many similar ones. Then they found hundreds of internet celebrities to shoot, full of edge dance, technical flow, gesture dance, etc.
"This isn't pretty either." Jiang Hengda commented after watching a few borderline videos, "Although it's tempting, the filters and beauty are too heavy."

Chen Shuo nodded: "You are now a person who plays with actresses, and you really don't like these marginal girls."

Jiang Hengda shrank his neck.

This is indeed the case. In many short videos shot by celebrities who are famous for their beauty, if the special effects are turned up, such as enlarging eyes or slimming faces, the effects will be extremely exaggerated and have no aesthetic appeal at all.

Because their facial features are already outstanding among humans, they do not need any additional enhancements.

But again, the public loves to watch it.

Sometimes Chen Shuo doesn’t understand how some girls become popular just by their looks, and what the so-called atmosphere is, but there’s nothing he can do about it, the public likes it.

In this case, the traffic will be tilted.

"Let's look at the next one." Bai Zhuang urged.

Chen Shuo clicked the mouse. The interface was very interesting. There was nothing else except the video. If you wanted to see something else, you could only scroll down.

This means not giving users any opportunity to make their own choices, but instead providing corresponding content based on your viewing choices.

This method will make users forget the time unconsciously. When they exit the app and take a look, they will realize that two hours have passed.

"Do you want to continue reading?" Chen Shuo asked the three people.

"Yeah, I think so. I'm more curious about what the next one will be, because the content is different."

Snapped!
Chen Shuo closed the computer: "That's it, I'm leaving now, bye."

A few days later, I found the technology building.

A black SF90 sports car drove downstairs. Tong Jingcheng got out of the car, took off his sunglasses, looked around, and then walked into the building. His assistant quickly pushed the car into the parking space.

Nanny cars drove over one after another, and the people getting off were all top anchors from Mimi Technology's platforms without exception.

Large conference room.

Tong Jingcheng lowered his head and played with his phone. He greeted several internet celebrities he knew and thought to himself, the company is going to make some big move and call all the elites over.

Thinking about the news he saw not long ago, Tong Jingcheng had a rough idea in his mind.

It seems that President Shuo attaches great importance to the short video platform, and the internet celebrities present today are likely to move away.

This is not a good thing for big internet celebrities. If they leave their original platform and go to a new platform that has not yet been launched, there is a high probability that they will lose fans.

But for other mid-level anchors on the original platform, there are both advantages and disadvantages. With the departure of the big internet celebrities, the platform traffic will definitely decline, but they also have the opportunity to be supported.

"Hi, Jiajia, sit here."

Tong Jingcheng saw Li Ziqi coming in and immediately waved and said hello: "I'm sorry to bother you when I went to Sichuan and Chongqing last time. I'll treat you to dinner tonight."

Li Jiajia didn't have many acquaintances here. After all, she was on a different track. She focused on being independent and detached from the world, so she sat next to Tong Jingcheng and said slowly, "I don't eat West Lake vinegar fish."

"There's more to Mingzhou than West Lake Vinegar Fish."

"what?"

"KFC, Barbie buns."

These two are the most popular internet celebrities right now. Liziqi focuses on Weibo and YouTube, while Tong Jingcheng is a big hit on the Douyu platform and is a well-deserved outdoor leader.

So both of them have their own ideas about change.

Tong Jingcheng asked Li Ziqi in a low voice: "You should have guessed it, the company is probably going to ask us to move. What do you think about this?"

"I'm free to do it."

Li Ziqi's response was very calm. She is in the video track and does not do live broadcast, but she has traffic everywhere.

Tong Jingcheng clicked his tongue: "You don't care, but I'm really panicking right now."

Li Ziqi thought for a moment and looked at Tong Jingcheng: "Do you think choice is more important than hard work, or hard work is more important than choice?"

Tong Jingcheng was stunned for a moment. He remembered the time when he and his grandmother made funny videos in the beginning but they didn't make any waves.

If Chen Shuo hadn't shown him the way, he might still be worthless now.

"I understand what you mean."

Tong Jingcheng smiled and said, "Just follow the organization."

Li Ziqi nodded: "To this day, none of the decisions made by President Shuo have been wrong. Xiaotong, among so many people present, except Wen Ying, we are the last Internet celebrities that President Shuo has personally guided. We cannot undermine President Shuo's work."

"understand!"

Tong Jingcheng snapped his fingers: "Then, let's move."

"Go have fun with our President Shuo again."
