"So dia outlets are reporting that our livestream e-comrce company has product quality issues, and buyers can’t get their complaints addressed."
"Jindong has notified us that the price war with Ugly Group needs to continue, and we need to increase our investnt."
"Our dostic automotive supply chain partners hope we can shorten the paynt cycle, as they deem the current cycle unreasonable."
Over the next few days, bad news kept pouring in from the assistant one after another.
However, when things reach this level, Chen Yiyang actually becos less anxious.
Because he knows that the mastermind behind this series of attacks against him is definitely not one person; it’s multiple parties united against him.
If only one or two people were launching attacks against him, Chen Yiyang would be more concerned.
After all, individual motives are hard to predict and generally not very rational.
If there were truly those types of mad dogs, even just finding this mad dog would be a troubleso task for Chen Yiyang.
But with a large-scale attack like this, it can’t be accomplished by just one or two mad dogs; it’s at least a pack of mad dogs.
Since that’s the case, he decided to talk to them one by one and see who the mbers of this noisy pack are.
His first suspect, of course, was Wei Yujun.
Not to ntion, the collective demand from suppliers to shorten the paynt period definitely has Wei Yujun’s involvent.
However, Chen Yiyang and Wei Yujun are old enemies.
If Wei Yujun really had such power to stage such a grand sche against him, he would have done so long ago, not waited till now.
It’s likely this ti Wei Yujun simply followed the crowd, joining the charge with others.
Thus, Chen Yiyang didn’t rush to negotiate with the parts suppliers of Yiyang Automobile.
The paynt cycle for Yiyang Automobile is average among new energy car companies, approximately four months to clear.
So the suppliers’ collective agitation is likely because Chen Yiyang’s large-scale dostic production hasn’t comnced, leading to limited shipnts and profits, thus orchestrated by Longcheng.
However, once Yiyang Automobile’s first model Baize Lingguang is launched, Chen Yiyang would need to renegotiate with these suppliers.
Therefore, he decided to put them on hold and, when the ti cos, change suppliers if necessary and negotiate terms as needed.
Chen Yiyang then went to negotiate with the people from Kiwifruit, hoping to strike so cooperation agreent between Qingguo and Kiwifruit.
Then.
Chen Yiyang was t with rejection.
After attacking Qingguo short video, Kiwifruit concentrated on nurturing its own short drama team while engaging in a flow and public opinion battle with Qingguo.
They were clearly going for the kill.
Chen Yiyang could only call Xu Yun over.
"Currently, Qingguo’s traffic has retreated sowhat from before the new year, but its growth trend is clearly better than all other video platforms on the market now."
Xu Yun said, "However, Qingguo is still mainly rooted in the short video field, so a direct collision with Kiwifruit won’t happen for the ti being.
But because of actions by Kiwifruit and so other video platforms, our short drama collaborating teams have started changing allegiance."
"I rember you signed exclusive agreents with them, didn’t you?" Chen Yiyang inquired curiously, "How can these short drama teams still change allegiance then?
"The exclusive agreents restrict the teams, not the individuals." Xu Yun said, "Now Kiwifruit has used substantial funds to directly poach the talents from those teams.
So short drama teams have even disbanded in place, then founded a new company to collaborate with Kiwifruit, discarding the old company’s shell entirely."
"I see." Chen Yiyang nodded and then thought for a mont before saying, "What difficulties does Qingguo face if it wants to continue developing?"
"It’s still a money issue." Xu Yun replied, "Firstly, we need to expand the short drama teams and buy content from other teams.
Secondly, we need to acquire users, constantly spending money to buy traffic."
"Alright, I understand." Chen Yiyang waved his hand grandly, approving billions more in funding for Qingguo.
Even though he didn’t initially invest in Qingguo with optimism about its future.
But Qingguo’s current growth montum does prove that it can indeed develop an app with a large user base.
As for whether it can be profitable, that’s not sothing Qingguo should consider right now.
Qingguo’s daily active users even surpassed a hundred million around the new year.
If it can maintain that, Qingguo’s valuation could reach hundreds of billions.
This investnt is definitely necessary.
After eting with Xu Yun, Zhang Yuling called Chen Yiyang.
"I inquired through my contacts about the situation with Kiwifruit targeting Qingguo. It’s partly due to their fear of Qingguo’s traffic surge. The other reason is because of the major shareholders’ demands."
"Kiwifruit’s major shareholders?" Chen Yiyang paused montarily and then reacted.
Kiwifruit, as a video platform, has large internet companies backing it."
And the company backing Kiwifruit is nad Qian Du.
Yes, the sa Qian Du that’s into search engines.
"I have no enmity with Qian Du, so why suddenly target ?" Chen Yiyang wondered.
The battle between Jindong and Ugly Group was because Ugly Group threatened Jindong’s core interests."
So the two prepared early and fought first."
But I don’t have any company at hand threatening Qian Du’s core interests."
Wait, maybe I do."
Chen Yiyang almost forgot that he is a major shareholder of DEEPSEEK."
If AI large models are developed to later stages, they can completely replace search engines."
After all, search engines require users to search themselves, but AI large models can directly provide the accurate answers users want."
Qian Du’s revenue relies on advertising inco brought by search engines."
But if AI models develop, then Qian Du would be out of business."
In the future, Qian Du’s efforts in bid ranking and inserting ad links in the top search results would all be useless."
The DEEPSEEK that Chen Yiyang holds does indeed infringe on Qian Du’s core interests."
Thinking of this, Chen Yiyang didn’t delay and flew directly to Peng City to Tengxu’s headquarters to look for Wu Changxun.
"In the past, you always ca to Lin’an to find , yet today, you directly co to Peng City. Is it because sothing big has happened?" Wu Changxun received Chen Yiyang in his office."
"Stop pretending." Facing his old friend Wu Changxun, Chen Yiyang was quite casual, saying directly, "Don’t tell you don’t know about the recent attacks against ."
"Oh, yes, I saw so news."
Wu Changxun sat down, taking a sip of tea, speaking leisurely, "The kind of formation you’re facing, we’ve at Tengxu faced from ti to ti since developing, so I hadn’t paid much attention."
"You sound quite proud now, don’t you?" Hearing Wu Changxun’s words, Chen Yiyang rolled his eyes irritatedly.
