Chapter 177 The beginning and the end(2/2)
In a word, manpower is sometimes scarce.
The number of employees previously deployed could handle normal situations, but not this crazy situation.
Even if you use the resources of a third-party service company, it is impossible to prevent it.
Because it is impossible to stop new user registration.
It is also impossible to ban everyone from speaking.
Moreover, Xiaocheng Book not only has a public social module, but also a communication social module, which increases the difficulty.
Li Ze then continued: "We have tried our best from the beginning. The current passive situation is related to our lack of progress in contacting entertainment stars. This aspect is my responsibility."
"I……"
Wen Liang suddenly stretched out his hand to interrupt Li Ze and said directly: "Don't get into the bad habit of admitting your mistakes and taking responsibility as soon as you get up. Whose problem is it and who can escape it?"
Then he said: "Don't you have a solution?"
She was obviously talking about Li Ze, but Xin Dai's expression was very tense.
She knew that Wen Liang's words about bad habits were meant for herself.
Bolang has fewer meetings and less accountability internally.
She was the one who brought this bad guy up.
She also knew that Wen Liang didn't want to hear her admit her mistakes. What she wanted was for her to remember the key points of the problem, formulate a process, and stop rushing around.
Here, Li Ze quickly opened the document: "There are two kinds."
"The first is to give up trying to get entertainment stars to join us and continue to leverage our advantages. Since the launch of the massive value platform, advertising business revenue has improved qualitatively. Weibo is now overdrawing its future and will decline sooner or later."
"The first is to spend money to invite celebrities to settle in."
Wen Liang frowned upon hearing this.
After looking at Li Ze, Wen Liang did not reprimand him in public, but said in a nonchalant manner: "Is that all?"
Facing Wen Liang's gaze, Li Ze replied: "Yes in general, the difference lies in the details."
"Then think about the details." Wen Liang made a gesture.
Then he looked at the crowd: "The purpose of this meeting is Weibo, not Weibo."
"Things have developed so far, and various problems that have been accumulated during the company's rapid development have been exposed. You must come up with practical solutions and don't think about diverting internal attention through external conflicts;
When something happens, why is there still internal chaos? You should seize the time to find the root cause and solve it!"
After saying that, Wen Liang stood up and said, "Don't always patch up Gu Quan."
The atmosphere in the conference room was a bit solid.
Although everyone is not surprised by Wen Liang's ability to get to the bottom of things, they are somewhat silent about it.
Li Xia was the first to respond solemnly: "Understood!"
"..."
Everyone in the meeting responded solemnly.
The meeting ended here.
This is one of the few meetings in Bolang that was specifically held but did not result in a resolution.
The details of the solution were not immediately finalized.
Regarding the battle of 'Xiaowei', Li Ze is right. There are indeed only two directions, and the initiative lies with Xiao Chengshu.
However, even on this small matter, Wen Liang was not satisfied with the plan.
…
As soon as Li Ze left the conference room, he immediately walked into Wen Liang's office next to him.
Looking at Li Ze, Wen Liang asked bluntly: "Is there no other way?"
"It doesn't count." Li Ze simply explained, "The two directions I mentioned are the same, one is slow and the other is fast."
Wen Liang withdrew his gaze, looked out the window, and said slowly: "I am 20 years old now. I like sports cars, yachts, airplanes, luxury watches, and singing every night."
"I can still like you at 30 or even 40, but at 40 my wrinkled face and increasingly bloated body no longer look as charming as they do now at 20."
“I’m talking so much nonsense to tell you that today I can make concessions for Weibo’s decline, but tomorrow I won’t need to.”
"I'm also telling you that today I want to see the decline of Weibo, but I can't wait until tomorrow."
Then, Wen Liang looked at Li Ze: "So, putting aside the matter of entertainment celebrities settling in, don't you have any other ideas?"
Li Ze felt a little ashamed: "Yes, I didn't cooperate with the entry of popular entertainment stars, and the attack on Weibo was not sharp enough."
"It's not advisable to spend money." Wen Liang just said, "If you pay this signing fee today, you will ask for that signing fee tomorrow. If you don't pay it, there will be trouble."
Li Ze understood a little bit: "No wonder Weibo's 200 million incubation fund suddenly made no noise."
He added: "We have no other good solution in a short period of time. The resistance we have encountered in contacting entertainment stars has doubled in recent days, and they are all waiting for a price."
Wen Liang glanced at Li Ze and finally gave him a solution: "Then raise the price."
Li Ze: "?"
Wen Liang just looked at Li Ze steadily, waiting for him to figure out the meaning.
If he were standing in 2016 and beyond, Li Ze would probably understand it instantly.
Because that was the time when a particularly "interesting" and "textbook-level" operation gradually produced a large-scale chain reaction.
That operation is called: raising prices to remove inventory.
Fortunately, Li Ze's brain was still good, and he quickly thought of the beauty of it.
Then Li Ze said one word: "Cow."
…………
That night, Weibo’s ‘Mid-year Special’ event was in full swing.
Weibo provides a variety of ways for netizens to interact with entertainment stars.
Traffic is increasing.
At its peak, the number of simultaneous online users on Weibo exceeded 80 million!
Visit traffic reached 1 billion in a short period of time.
This is a very, very rare scene.
However, this was also Weibo’s last shining moment.
Shortly after the online event on Weibo began, Xiaocheng Book issued an announcement through official channels.
The general idea is:
[In view of the existing network environment, in order to maintain the healthy development of the Xiaocheng Book platform ecology, the Xiaocheng Book certification system will be fully updated;
In order to give every user who needs authentication a better experience, the authentication system will be closed immediately and will reopen at 10 a.m. on the 19th.]
The content of the announcement is not complicated.
Some of the explanations in the supplementary provisions are not complicated, but the content confuses many netizens.
1. Freeze the existing V certification application and continue the process after reopening;
2. For V-certified users who have completed the review, for those who do not meet the requirements for cancellation of certification, as agreed in the terms, the application fee will not be refunded and will not be publicized;
3. Applications for V certification by individuals, celebrities, and industry users who do not meet the qualifications will be rejected. Those who do not meet the qualifications and have real needs must be recommended by V certification users in the same industry and pay special certification fees;
4. V certification from MCN institutions, personal studios and other institutions will be open as appropriate;
5. Arrange one-to-one connection with V-certified users who meet the requirements;
6. Arrange exclusive channels for V-certified users who need cooperation and meet the requirements;
7,…
"What is Xiao Chengshu doing, so weird?"
"Why did the threshold of the certification system suddenly increase so much? Who else would apply for V certification?"
"I don't understand. Is it because of the impact of the Weibo public intellectuals' collective transfer of positions that was revealed before?"
"So, Xiaocheng Shu is panicking? Such a big crisis, Weibo held an event and then it went viral?"
"..."
Disaster: "You haven't discovered the key points. I won't talk about the many things. Just wait and see."
The evening wind is like clouds: "Gao, I can only say that everything is over."
