Playing Find Nearby People, the future self greets him and gives Lu Fan an opportunity to get rich quick.
Lu Fan gathers 6 million yuan to enter the international foreign exchange market.
...Would you be willing to give it up?
Lu Fan looked at Huang Zheng with great interest, knowing full well that Huang Zheng was seeking his opinion.
When he first invested, Lu Fan said that he would only hold shares and would not be too involved in the operation of Pinduoduo.
However, it cannot be denied that Lu Fan owns 80% of Pinduoduo's shares, giving him absolute say and veto power.
Lu Fan was not involved in the decision-making process when Huang Zheng promoted the "cut one price" campaign.
Now that Pinduoduo has run into trouble, Huang Zheng dares not make decisions lightly regarding the company's life or death.
"I'm reluctant to part with her, but it seems like this is the only way to save Pinxixi, otherwise..."
Huang Zheng didn't continue, but the meaning was quite clear.
"This may not be the only solution. If Pinduoduo shrinks in quality, what use is it to me?"
Lu Fan, his previous relaxed demeanor replaced by a serious expression, spoke.
He invested in Pinduoduo because he was optimistic about its development prospects.
If Pinduoduo's development prospects no longer exist, then for him, there is no need for Pinduoduo to exist.
Anyway, it's not like he's short of money.
"Mr. Lu, what do you mean?"
Huang Zheng was intimidated by Lu Fan's imposing manner, and he knew that Lu Fan was telling the truth.
However, for the sake of Xixi's future, he still gritted his teeth and asked.
"The 'cut a cut' campaign is related to the future development of Pinduoduo. If it's affected by something as small as this, it's bound to be a loss."
"Some people want to see Pinduoduo collapse, aren't you playing right into their hands?"
Lu Fan shook his head; Huang Zheng was now grasping at straws in his desperation.
He devoted all his energy to the "cut a price" campaign. It can be said that Pinduoduo's ability to become a company worth billions is inseparable from the "cut a price" promotion model.
Now that someone has found a weakness, he has been thrust into the spotlight.
They even resorted to legal means, which momentarily threw Huang Zheng off balance.
This is not Huang Zheng's fault; as the one who set the rule for cutting off someone's neck, he knows it all too well.
Public opinion is only one aspect of the problem; more importantly, it's the investigation by relevant departments. The "cut-the-bill" campaign will definitely not pass this test. If it is discovered, it will be more than just a matter of the company going bankrupt.
"The 'cut-the-price' campaign not only shouldn't stop, but it should also take advantage of this controversy to soar to new heights!"
"No need to spend any more money on public relations. Let them argue, the more hype they generate, the better!"
The usually composed Lu Fan took an unconventional approach this time.
He's already the world's richest man, yet he still has to go to Lu Fan for even the smallest things.
Then his claim of being the world's richest man is a bit too unfounded.
Wealth alone is not enough; he also needs his own methods.
"Um?"
Huang Zheng stared blankly at Lu Fan, not knowing what he was talking about.
If Secretary Ge were here, he would definitely recognize that expression; it was the same as his expression when he heard Lu Fan's reverse operation, or even more exaggerated.
Lu Fan ignored Huang Zheng's confused look and continued to explain.
"I've asked the Jiang Group to step forward and become Pinduoduo's backer. This is not only reassuring for you alone, but also for the vast majority of users!"
"Good steel should be used where it counts. Continuing to spend money on public relations to guide public opinion is a waste. It would be better to leverage this opportunity and give that money back to users!"
After Lu Fan finished speaking, Huang Zheng seemed to understand something.
But they failed to grasp the most important point in Lu Fan's words.
"Slash it!"
Lu Fan offered some advice, sounding somewhat exasperated.
The best way to solve a problem is to get rid of the person who caused it.
Although the controversy surrounding Pinduoduo was orchestrated by certain individuals, the main actors in the controversy ultimately came from Pinduoduo's users.
Once the problems of these individuals are resolved, the issue of public opinion will naturally be resolved.
The money intended for public relations could be distributed to users through a "cut-off" campaign. Once the money is actually received, what use is public opinion?
They might even be thinking of taking advantage of Pinduoduo to launch a major promotional campaign.
"I understand!"
Huang Zheng's eyes gleamed with a sharp light; how could he not have thought of this?
"Okay, that's good. You're more knowledgeable about this than I am, so I won't say anything more!"
"Go ahead and get busy!"
After Lu Fan finished speaking, he immediately ordered the guests to leave.
For Huang Zheng now, time is truly money. The sooner the plan is implemented, the more losses can be recovered.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Lu! Thank you, Mr. Lu!"
Huang Zheng quickly stood up, repeatedly expressing his gratitude.
He also realized the vast difference between himself and Lu Fan; their perspectives on issues were completely different.
This made Huang Zheng admire Lu Fan immensely.
"Mr. Lu, you wanted to see me!"
Shortly after Huang Zheng left, Secretary Ge pushed open the office door and walked in.
"Secretary Ge, please pay close attention to the activities of some major domestic companies during this period!"
"I don't really believe that launching a Pinduoduo would require such a huge undertaking."
Lu Fan said coldly.
Although Pinduoduo is a listed company with a market value of tens of billions, it is still not enough to compete with some big players.
The speed at which Pinduoduo collapsed was incredibly fast. Within a short period, public opinion was manipulated, and even official power was mobilized to pressure Pinduoduo.
It was so powerful that even Huang Zheng struggled to cope; some small companies simply don't have that kind of power.
