MSN held a press conference to announce its withdrawal from the IM Alliance, which caught Yahoo off guard and caught all public opinion off guard. The reversal came too fast, like a tornado.
The brains of those who were yelling at Penguin one second were confused, but the media who were the first to come to their senses the next second immediately turned their guns and turned towards the IM Alliance:
"Is the interconnection between MSN and Yahoo Messenger a hit-off, or is it just wishful thinking?"
"It collapsed in less than a month, leaving the im alliance in shambles. Yahoo has yet to respond."
"Interconnection is just a gimmick. Yahoo uses its name to maliciously hype and grab traffic. The thinking behind it is not simple."
"Penguin was wrong in rejecting the IM Alliance? It was exactly the right thing to do!"
"..."
After the media switched sides, experts switched sides, and then netizens switched sides. They put Yahoo on the altar and took it down. They ridiculed, belittled, and slandered. Without scolding, it is not enough.
The "four-cylinder army" no longer needs to pretend to be the black penguin of Yahoo. Now it is time to take off the disguise and attack Yahoo with a heavy blow. Remember Mr. Lu's 6-character policy——
Black! Rush! Fight hard!
Everything went according to plan, but Lu Fei was very dissatisfied.
"Li Qing, your words are not harsh enough! You have already torn Zhou Hongyi's face apart, so don't show mercy and tear Zhou Hongyi's face apart."
"Mr. Lu, I'll make arrangements right away."
Zeng Liqing heard the hint of "increasing intensity" and agreed without hesitation. He should retaliate a tooth for a tooth, a hundredfold!
"in addition."
Lu Fei promised that in addition to a comprehensive counterattack, he would also take the opportunity to suffer misfortune.
Poor marketing?
Zeng Li Qing had never heard of such a subtle skill?
"After being scolded for so long, I still ask others to scold me. This scolding cannot be in vain. I must get it back with profit."
Lu Fei's tone was relaxed and comfortable.
Zeng Liqing asked for advice: "Mr. Lu, what should we do?"
"If you are wronged, of course you have to cry out."
Lu Fei's mouth showed a trace of a bad smile, "We penguins are the contemporary Dou E's grievances, and we are the same big grievances as Dou E."
The decree was conveyed, but soon, from BBS to Tieba, from the four major portals, to Tianya Maopu, waves of QQ users slowly poured in, crying out for Penguin and complaining for Penguin——
"Did you see that? Penguins have foresight!"
"Penguin's reasons for not supporting it are very clear. Interconnection requires technology but not technology, safety but not security. The time is not yet ripe, and all we get in exchange is abuse. Now it's all come true!"
"Who dares to be worse than Penguin! He has been scolded for a week for no reason."
"I have never scolded Penguin because I believe in Lu Fei. Those who have scolded Penguin should apologize to me!"
"Penguin is simply more unjust than Dou E. I feel sorry for you and give you a hug."
"..."
Under Lu Fei's micro-management, Penguin's public relations changed the "funny goose grievance" between Lao Ganma and Penguin in the previous life into a "goose grievance fight", and severely sold a wave of "beautiful, strong and miserable" characters.
"Sorry Penguin", fueled by a certain mysterious force, quickly spread across the Internet. Penguin was no longer shouted and beaten by everyone, but felt sorry for him.
Things are turning, and it's Yahoo's turn to reap the consequences.
I was so arrogant before, but now I am so embarrassed, inside and outside the circle, and I completely regard Yahoo Messenger as a joke.
In an instant, the popularity of Yahoo Messenger dropped from awesome to low. The number of daily active online users of Yahoo Messenger dropped by five or six figures every day. Users abandoned it one after another and switched to msn and icq. Naturally, the largest number was qq.
…
The market share dropped from 6.1% to less than 5%!
One night before liberation, they went around in circles together, but failed to reap any benefits. The reputation spread far and wide, and Zhou Hongyi was implicated. After the "gangster godfather", there was another "boasting godfather".
"boom!"
Zhou Hongyi slapped his hands on the table and roared at the hands-free landline phone:
"Luo Chuan! Give me a perfect explanation!"
"Explain what?"
Luo Chuan's voice came from the phone, unhappy.
"Why the hell did msn withdraw from the im alliance!"
Zhou Hongyi said angrily: "Do you know how passive Yahoo is and how much we have lost because of MSN's withdrawal?"
"Can I not carry out the orders from the headquarters?"
Luo Chuan sighed dejectedly, feeling like Du Yuming. He was about to retreat south when suddenly the admission notice from Gongdelin was airdropped. Chang Kaishen made some micro maneuvers and asked him to attack north to deliver it.
What can he do? He is also desperate!
"Headquarters wants you to quit?"
Zhou Hongyi is doubtful, are you kidding me?
"You don't know about Lu Fei's relationship with Microsoft, right?"
"You mean Lu Fei did it?!"
"Yes, Lu Fei must have convinced the headquarters."
Luo Chuan felt more or less guilty of backstabbing his allies: "Don't you know what it's like to be controlled by the headquarters?"
"I know how it feels."
Zhou Hongyi was silent for a long time, believing 80% to 90%.
Luo Chuan said helplessly: "Isn't the reason perfect?"
"Haha, so perfect."
Zhou Hongyi was so angry that he laughed, and laughter came from his mouth, but his whole face was sinister and terrifying, and the fat on his face was twitching.
Looking at his crazy look, He Yun looked at Lin Shaoan who was gloating about his misfortune and whispered: "Did you report it to the headquarters?"
"Of course, just follow the rules."
Yahoo is notorious for being rigid in doing things according to the rules, and the most intolerable thing is that the subordinates suppress the superiors.
But Zhou Hongyi broke the rules again and again.
From Yahoo China to the headquarters, from bottom to top, an anti-Zhou force has long been formed. At this time, a swarm of people rushed into the president's office to denounce Zhou Hongyi:
"Yang, we cannot tolerate barbarians commanding!"
"This Mrs. Zhou is so rude that she actually asked us to agree to remove the person in charge of human resources, finance, and law who he doesn't want..."
"He didn't pay attention to the headquarters at all. Without asking for instructions, he interconnected with MSN without authorization, deleted the channel of Yahoo China Portal without authorization, and even created a new one without authorization."
"Yang, this barbarian must be taken care of!"
"..."
"enough!"
Yang Zhiyuan drank it down, "Now is the first year of betting. It's only the beginning of the year. Give him at least one year."
"Then he asked for additional budget and increased investment?"
All the opponents said in unison: "You agree?"
"Yeah~"
Yang Zhiyuan said with a straight face: "It is impossible to add more money. Zhou came up with it himself, so let him find a way."
"What! Not willing to add any budget?"
Zhou Hongyi stared at He Yun who brought the news.
"Dr. Yang asked Yahoo China to raise its own funds." Lin Shaoan said with a smile.
"Why should I look for them if I can raise my own money!"
Zhou Hongyi's face turned red and he cursed.
Now Yahoo China is attacking on three fronts, targeting Baidu and Sogou, email targeting Penguin and NetEase, and instant messaging targeting Penguin. The war is all about food and grass, and cash flow is seriously tight.
…
Yahoo Messenger is short of money right now, very short of money!
"Why don't you, Mr. Zhou, admit your mistake to Mr. Lu?"
He Yun suggested: "He can instigate rebellion against MSN, and he must have planned this public opinion. Maybe if you give in, you can raise the muzzle of the gun a few centimeters."
"Do you think it's useful to admit your mistake?" Zhou Hongyi frowned.
"It's definitely useless not to admit your mistakes."
Lin Shaoan secretly said: "Although it is shameful to admit your mistake, it may work. At least there is a glimmer of possibility."
"Then give it a try. Anyway, I have no skin and no face."
Zhou Hongyi did not forget to make some preparations before making the call.
Since Penguin can rely on "Audition" to divert attention, Yahoo can also rely on criticizing "Audition" to distract attention.
He Yun looked awkward, "Mr. Zhou, is this..."
"Do as I say!"
Zhou Hongyi took a deep breath, dialed the number, and waited anxiously for the connection, one minute, two minutes...
After nearly three minutes, a human voice came from the receiver, and the first sentence had a strong sense of disloyalty:
"Mr. Lu, I, Zhou, am sorry for you. I was wrong."
"Oh, wrong? How could Mr. Zhou be sorry for me?"
Lu Fei was sitting in the conference room of the Diplomatic Apartments. He put his hand to his lips and made a silent gesture.
In an instant, the whole room was quiet and you could hear a pin drop.
Gao Yuanyuan looked at him, then at Ning Hao, Zhong Lifang and others, with big eyes and small eyes, and all she heard in her ears was "Uh-huh-oh," extremely perfunctory, with a hint of displeasure.
"Mr. Zhou came to admit his mistake, but he didn't know where the mistake was. Internet and Interoperability? No, no, Internet and Interoperability is not wrong. Your fault lies elsewhere."
Lu Fei knocked on the table with a kind look on his face.
Zhou Hongyi on the phone asked, "Mr. Lu, can you give me a hint as to where I went wrong?"
"Mr. Zhou, I'm very happy that you called to admit your mistake, but I don't like your attitude of calling to admit your mistake."
Lu Fei said expressionlessly: "You don't even know where you are wrong. Why do you ask me to admit your mistakes?"
The cold tone was full of murderous intent, and Ning Hao suddenly shuddered, as if accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, almost the same feeling.
"Mr. Zhou, think clearly about where you went wrong, and we'll talk about it later."
Lu Fei's stern face turned into a kind smile after hanging up the phone faster than flipping through a book.
"Mr. Lu, what do you think of the script?"
Ning Hao felt a strong aura and felt uneasy.
"emm, Mr. Gao and Mr. Zhong, what do you think?"
Lu Fei touched his chin and flipped through it again.
Compared with the finished product of the previous life, it lacks many key lines, such as the international thief Mike's "Put your lungs in", which was obviously an inspiration during filming.
"It's very good, I have no objection."
Gao Yuanyuan shook her head and glanced at Zhong Lifang. She agreed, but she suggested that to make the film more attractive, at least one or two stars should be hired.
Since "Hero" ushered in the era of Chinese-language blockbusters, big productions, big investments, big directors, and big star casts have become standard features, such as "The Golden Jacket" and "The Promise"...
"How about letting Brother Jiang play the leading role?" Gao Yuanyuan said.
Ning Hao was excited, with rejection written all over his face. Although Jiang Wenyan was indeed suitable, he was afraid that he would interfere with the director. This was not the first time he had a criminal record, such as "The Gun" and "The Barber"...
…
"he?"
Lu Feile said: "Leave the preliminary selection to the director. He knows what he wants. It's not too late to screen after the audition."
Best regards, Mr. Lu!
Ning Hao breathed a long sigh of relief. In fact, he secretly had many candidates. Heipi was Huang Bo, Brother Dao was Liu Hua, and as for Mike——
Far away in the horizon, close before our eyes, is Mr. Lu.
When he mustered up the courage to mention it after the meeting, Lu Fei shook his head and laughed: "I only play positive characters, but I can hire a Hong Kong star, Zhang Yaoyang, Wu Zhenyu, what do you think?"
Ning Hao's eyes lit up, "Can I invite Wu Zhenyu?"
"It depends on how you spend the 8 million."
Lu Fei raised his lips and specifically told Bao Shihong to add Fu Dalong to Bao Shihong's audition list. He had been staying in Yunfei Internet Cafe with no scenes to film, so give him a chance.
Ning Hao agreed wholeheartedly, grinning like a lotus flower, and walked forward while calculating the cast.
At this moment, a group of people appeared in the line of sight, forming a dense mass and forming a pile. From time to time, exclamations were heard:
"Like, so similar!"
"If you don't do your business, why are you standing here?"
Zhong Lifang scolded fiercely with a dark face.
"ah!"
The employees dispersed one by one, and one of them was stopped and questioned face to face. Only then did they realize that a woman who looked very similar to Gao Yuanyuan came to Chang Jihong's office.
"Is it really that similar?"
Gao Yuanyuan blinked, curious.
Lu Fei's heart skipped a beat and he felt bad, but he remained calm on the surface and said he wanted to acquire Singularity Point, and immediately stepped out of the way.
"go Go."
Gao Yuanyuan had no doubt that he was there, and she and Zhong Lifang knocked on the door of the office. As soon as the door opened, Gao Lu's face suddenly came into her eyes.
Regardless of the eyes, smiles, body expressions, or even temperament, they cannot be said to be exactly the same, at least they are very similar.
"Mr. Gao, are you sisters?"
No matter how calm Zhong Lifang was, she couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
"No, no, I only have one brother."
Gao Yuanyuan looked at Gao Lu with wide eyes, and Gao Lu looked at her in astonishment. His mind went blank for a moment, and he only heard Chen Zhixi beside him exclaim:
"Oh my God, are they really that similar?"
"Look, I said you look like Mr. Gao, right?"
Chang Jihong smiled and looked at Gao Yuanyuan on the left and Gao Lu on the right. They were like two hibiscus flowers side by side in the world, pure, beautiful and incomparably beautiful.
"Hello."
Gao Yuanyuan politely extended her hand and introduced herself.
"H-hello."
When Gao Lu shook hands, Tong Kong was shaken and had mixed emotions.
Ah Fei helped me so much, does it mean I look like his girlfriend?
What did he take me for? A substitute?
The huge office was eerily quiet, like a Shura field, but the instigator was not there.
Otherwise, it will be a bq!
"So you are Ah Fei's senior sister!
Gao Yuanyuan looked regretful: "It's a pity that he has something to do and is in a hurry to go to the Shanghai market."
