Born Again: A Journey of Love Rediscovered Novel Chapter 516

The business in the Southern Market was not progressing, and Robin was quite anxious while waiting, so after thinking about it, he decided to take advantage of the weekend to return to Kyoto.

He was still thinking about Yang Xueyu's Dahongpao, and felt that if he didn't drink it, it would be in vain.

But before going to drink tea, he has one more job, which is to report the work situation to his boss.

Cui Yiting also followed Robin back to Kyoto. The main reason for her return was that the hot flashes in Yongcheng in summer were very serious, which was really difficult for a northern girl like her.

After arriving at the company, Wu Bo, the boss of LaShou, was being interviewed. The topic was the development and prospects of the group buying market.

Wu Bo expressed his views confidently and said that Lashou.com will always be committed to serving merchants and benefiting consumers.

However, when a reporter asked about the famous group tours in recent times, he smiled and said nothing, seeming to think that the question was of little value.

After the interview ended, Robin and Cui Yiting were invited into the president's office, where they reported on their recent work and expressed deep regret for their poor start.

"Forget it, Nuomi will not be around for a few more days. Oh, by the way, there is also the group fight. The opponent we need to be wary of the most is Dianping."

"Has Tenpay already connected to Dianping?"

Wu Bo nodded: "The service has been activated."

Robin was silent for a moment after hearing this: "Then the market in Kyoto will probably be eaten up by him in full."

"It doesn't matter, we can only successfully win the Guangdong market, and we can be considered a winner."

"That's not necessarily true, boss."

Wu Bo looked at him in surprise: "How do you say that?"

Robin frowned slightly: "If the community group buying business of group buying is taken over by Dianping, it will be difficult for us to fight in the future."

"There is nothing we can do about it. We evacuated from the Kyoto market in order to preserve our strength, which indeed left such a hidden danger. But even if the group fight is stuck, we can probably hold on for a few months."

"Speaking of which, the worst outcome would probably be the group fight."

Just as Robin finished sighing, there was suddenly a rapid knock on the door, bang bang bang, as if something was urgent.

Wu Bo shouted to come in, and then he saw a manager from the technical department running into the office and took several breaths before opening his mouth.

"Boss, I have something important to report."

"There's no one else here, go ahead."

"Um...for the group fight, he has a technical team of six people with work badges on his chest. He looks very impressive."

The technical manager swallowed: "They have settled in Alibaba headquarters."

"What did you say?"

Lashou.com assumed that the number one enemy is Dianping, and Dianping has indeed gained momentum in the past two days.

Because Tenpay has been connected to Dianping, their app has also been quickly launched in major application markets, becoming the first group buying website that allows online payment using mobile phones.

Just like the gis service, this is already a milestone in the history of group buying.

To this end, they also specially made a special offer on mobile app orders, setting up a special discount channel that can only be accessed through the app, with the highest discount reaching 40% off.

Countless consumers flocked to the site, driving the number of downloads of popular apps through the roof.

"How is the publicity effect?"

"It's not bad. The download volume of the app is very impressive, and everyone's enthusiasm for grabbing coupons is also very high."

"How many people use Tenpay to pay online?"

"Well, not yet."

After hearing Zhang Li's report, Chen Jiaxin did not feel disappointed.

Because mobile payment is a new payment method after all, it is definitely impossible for everyone to accept it on the first day. Even group buying websites were built with a lot of money.

So, they are not in a hurry.

When Tenpay conducts subsequent promotions, the number of users will continue to increase. When Dianping launches another targeted promotion, it can be spread throughout the city in an instant. This is the benefit of commercial linkage.

And when online payment becomes more and more popular, online banking, phone bill deduction, card payment, etc. will all be replaced. By then, Dianping's business will be spread all over the country.

"Mr. Chen, have you ever used online payment?"

While Chen Jiaxin was sitting on the office chair, thinking silently, Yang Xueyu stepped into the office, arriving before anyone else arrived.

"I have used it, but the jump speed is still a bit slow, but compared to the payment on the PC, this is already very convenient."

Chen Jiaxin took out her mobile phone. On it was a 30% discount coupon for a hair salon that she had just ordered using Tenpay on her mobile phone.

Yang Xueyu unbuttoned his suit and sat on the sofa: "Times are progressing, and the development of the Internet is really changing with each passing day."

"Is there any news about Tenpay's promotion plan?"

"We haven't heard any news yet, but BMW Pay is about to go online. Since both major manufacturers are planning to deploy mobile payment at this time, it will be a money-burning war in the near future."

Chen Jiaxin nodded and suddenly remembered something: "Oh, by the way, I have a little news to share with you."

"What news?"

Chen Jiaxin turned her chair: "Mr. Li from Tenpay told me that John Qin went to him to ask for cooperation some time ago, but he was rejected and waited for four hours in vain."

Yang Xueyu was stunned for a moment: "Is there such a thing?"

"He doesn't want to accept Tencent's investment, but he wants Tenpay to cooperate with them. I don't know if I should say that he is too naive."

Yang Xueyu sighed: "Maybe he is arrogant. He thinks that if he can defeat us, he can defeat the big companies, but he probably doesn't understand what the Internet ecosystem is, which means that no one can remain independent."

Chen Jiaxin stopped smiling: "He didn't even accept Tencent's investment, let alone Alibaba's overlord clause. I really admire him."

"It does take a lot of courage to offend a big manufacturer."

"Maybe it's because I'm too young. I'm as old as him, and I feel like I can conquer the sky."

Chen Jiaxin sighed, and then turned to the main topic: "Team fighting is no longer a problem, but we still have opponents, Mr. Yang. I'm going to call everyone for a meeting. We need to discuss the follow-up layout."

Yang Xueyu stood up: "Understood."

Later, all the executives of Volkswagen Kyoto branch were gathered together, and Chen Jiaxin came wearing a white suit and high heels.

In their plan, as long as the promotion funds are in place, the promotion speed of mobile payment in first-tier cities will not exceed three months, which can have an effect on the current situation.

By then, team fights are no longer something to be afraid of, but Lashou will definitely grow with the wind and return to his peak state.

So Chen Jiaxin arranged three tasks. The first goal was a community group buying project, which they could accept unconditionally.

Secondly, Laishou will probably not return to Kyoto immediately, because Nuomi has just beaten them hard, and they will definitely return it and eat the market in Guangdong City by the way.

Therefore, Volkswagen needs two additional teams to go to Shanghai and Shenzhen to take advantage of this gap to eat up the share of these two cities.

Third, use strong publicity and cooperate with Tenpay’s layout to quickly develop consumers’ habit of using mobile payments.

"Manager Qu, publicity work is the responsibility of your advertising department. This matter is the prerequisite for all tasks. I hope your department can treat it well."

"Mr. Chen, actually we started contacting various offline media channels two days ago."

"very good."

Manager Qu was choked up and said slightly uneasily: "However, many offline media in good positions have already been appointed."

Chen Jiaxin was stunned for a moment: "Such a big deal? A real estate developer?"

"no."

"What kind of company is that?"

"Yes...it's a group tour. They booked it for three months."

At this time, Nuomi.com had just entered the Guangdong market and was operating between the group business area and the Wowo group business area.

They actually know about third-party payment, but fortunately, these group buying websites supported by third-party payment platforms are all in the north.

However, Pintuan, Nuomi and Wowotuan did not get this channel. Since everyone is weak, no one needs to be afraid of anyone else.

Of course, Lashou.com is now deploying in the south. Once it is connected to the mobile payment port, it will definitely come over.

However, the current core business areas are all in the hands of grouping, so grouping will definitely become the first sanction target of Lashou.com. They can still have a buffer period for the time being to find other remedies.

Yes, this threshold can indeed block many people, but with John Qin's terrifying ability, he can always withstand it for three months.

Three months is enough time to do a lot of things.

As the person in charge of the market in Guangdong City, Feng Songsong discovered a very strange thing on the streets in the past two days.

That is, the contents of subways, elevators, bus stops and outdoor billboards were all removed at about the same time, leaving only the bare iron sheets and backboards.

These advertising spaces are very valuable, not to mention a day, even an hour is expensive. It is basically impossible for them to be vacant, but this time it is surprisingly weird.

Chang Fangsong doesn't understand what this operation is, but because he often sees it on the way to work, he scans it more every time.

Until the morning of the 27th, there was nothing special in the eyes of many people.

When the morning light fills the city streets, these empty backboards and iron sheets all have new contents.

Changsong rushed to work as usual. When he passed this place, he just glanced at it casually, and his whole head suddenly buzzed.

Kyoto, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guangdong, when a sky blue and bright yellow poster quietly landed in every corner of the four cities, it suddenly exploded like thunder in a drought, exploding in the entire group buying market.

"Mr. Chen, Tuan Tuan and Alipay... strategic cooperation!"

"What?"

"Go and take a look. You can see them directly from the floor-to-ceiling windows. Their advertisements are overwhelming."

Chen Jiaxin and Yang Xueyu were discussing about inviting celebrities to shoot promotional videos. They were stunned after hearing Zhang Zhang's report, and then ran out of the office and came to the floor-to-ceiling windows.

There is an LED screen opposite their headquarters building, which used to play advertisements for DuangDuangDuang, which made countless men want to drink milk.

At this moment, there are only two colors left on the entire screen, the sky is blue like water, and the bright yellow is like the moon.

The blue part carries Alipay's logo, which says "If you dare to use it, I dare to compensate you."

Below is another line of text: "Bind your card for the first time and get a 100 yuan group shopping voucher."

The bright yellow part carries the group-buying logo, which reads "Buy group purchases to save money and worry."

Below is another line of text: "Choose Alipay to pay. If you dare to use it, he dares to compensate."

Sky blue and bright yellow are both very eye-catching colors that make them look very eye-catching.
