Chapter 548 Find a Way Out
In the Magic City, in a high-end apartment with huge floor-to-ceiling windows.
Hu Yan sat at his drawing table, drawing a cartoon about visiting QQ for new underwear products.
So far, the seller show in the form of "human-comic integration" pioneered by Cheng Zhu has been around for a year.
Not only in the QQ e-commerce industry, there are many followers in the entire clothing industry.
This gave Hu Yan a number of rival painters!
Based on her pride in being good at doing erotica and her seriousness and responsibility towards her financial sponsor Cheng Zhu, the female painter Hu Yan is now working hard to break through herself and strive for continuous perfection.
"I can't let the boss's selling show lose!" This is the attitude of this otaku painter.
When it comes to drawing other things, Hu Yan might just be an upper-middle level painter.
But if she is being naughty, then she can be classified into the category of "painters who cannot be replaced by AI".
Especially after Cheng Zhu's first two trips to the Magic City, she seemed to have her Ren and Du meridians opened up, and she actually made some progress!
Even someone as knowledgeable as him would sometimes be amazed when seeing the pictures she sent him, and would politely raise an upside-down exclamation mark with his body to show respect.
At the moment, the style she is drawing is a specially made pair of yoga pants.
The next few years were a period of great popularity for yoga.
But by the time Cheng Zhu was reborn, yoga was no longer that popular, and programs like Pilates were more popular.
Of course, yoga pants are basically used in these projects.
Therefore, whether it is a genuine yoga pants, or this kind of "cut-corner" yoga pants, or yoga pants with an extra hidden zipper, they are all promising products with bright prospects.
[Keep visiting] In fact, we have always had yoga pants models before, and this time they have been updated and upgraded.
Cheng Zhu is very clear that yoga pants still require some technical content. The hip-lifting effect, leg-shaping effect and wearing feel of the yoga pants produced in 2015 are quite different from those of the products produced a few years later.
His requirements for the factory are simple, that is, our classic products must continue to improve and upgrade.
"We can even make the QQ version of yoga pants better than the real yoga pants!" This is the effect he wants.
It’s no wonder that the leg-shaping effect of the current version 2.0 of yoga pants is almost the same as those on the market, but the hip-lifting effect is a major breakthrough compared to the 1.0 version!
Some of the yoga pants nowadays will restrict the hip curve when worn, making the hip curve appear a bit flat.
For those who may have trained their buttocks, their buttocks will be fuller and firmer, which can magnify their advantages, but the soft buttocks of ordinary people will not work.
This makes the strong stronger and the weak weaker!
The new products that you keep visiting are different, and the butt lift effect is outrageous!
Ordinary people can also have a small and perky butt after wearing it.
The effect Cheng Zhu wants is: "People who don't have QQ needs will also come to buy our yoga pants!"
This is fun.
This is the coolest thing!
Hu Yan knew how much the sponsor valued the yoga pants 2.0, so she drew the picture very comprehensively.
On the one hand, the "effect picture" is drawn to highlight its hip-lifting effect.
This is easy, she just needs to draw it herself.
This big fat ass with extraordinary talents has few rivals in the entire Demon City.
If she wears tight jeans and walks outside the shopping district, those street photographers will definitely take a lot of pictures of her from behind!
On the other hand, the otaku artist is drawing "scene pictures", which are some usage scenarios.
What she is drawing now is - the interior of the car.
Just half an hour ago, she had drawn a picture of herself stretching on a yoga mat.
Every time she finished drawing a picture, she would send the first version to her junior sister Yue Lingjing, chat with her and listen to her opinions.
After the two of them had a heated chat, she made some changes to the details before sending it to Cheng Zhu and the contact person of [Insist on Visiting].
Now, this basic work of reviewing drawings will definitely not be done by oneself.
He and Hu Yan only relied on this mode to communicate and then started chatting.
At this moment, the big-butt female painter was squatting on a chair and painting.
As she squatted down, her pajamas were stretched tightly, and her breasts looked full and round, which was particularly amazing.
Hu Yan's cell phone rang at this moment. He picked it up and saw that it was his sponsor who took the initiative to contact him.
"Is there any new task?" thought the homely painter.
Soon, she saw the WeChat message from Cheng Zhu.
"I'm coming to the Magic City on a business trip tomorrow, understand?"
Well, it’s also a new task?
Hu Yan opened his own emoticon gallery and sent back an emoticon made with his own self-portrait, with the word "received" written on it.
The content of this self-portrait is indescribable.
Again, the extent of their online chats is enough to alert the Internet police.
Cheng Zhu just found it funny when he saw her replying to him with such a sexy picture.
"This chubby fox, I guess when I talk to her on the road, she will keep sending me flirty words and pictures."
"But when the doorbell rings, I immediately become a quail."
The contrast between online and offline is so great that it can be said to be like heaven and earth.
But at least my body is still honest.
"How's the drawing of the yoga pants going?" Cheng Zhu asked.
Inspiration was clearly pouring out and couldn't be stopped, but the otaku painter replied: "I'm a little lacking in inspiration. I need to stimulate my inspiration."
Then, he sent another sexy picture of a homemade emoticon.
Cheng Zhu crossed his legs and chatted with her for a few words, engaging in some flirtatious exchanges.
Then he looked out the French window and saw that it was almost dark.
He hopes that these two 2.0 versions of yoga pants from [Stick to Visit] will become hot-selling products.
The "corner-cutting" and flawed models are sold purely as QQ products.
He hopes that this "redundant" style with an extremely discreet hidden zipper will become popular in the yoga circle.
"From what I've heard, yoga seems to have been that kind of sport from the beginning."
“You can see this in a lot of yoga poses.”
When he thought of this, he remembered the [Innate Yoga Pants Holy Body] beside him.
It would probably look amazing if Zhang Qiqi wore it.
Cheng Zhu smiled, stood up and started packing up to leave work.
Before leaving the company, he went to see if Ningning had finished get off work.
He knocked on the door, and after hearing the voice from inside, he pushed the door open and said, "Are you not off work yet?"
"immediately."
“How soon is soon?”
"Two or three minutes to finish the things on the computer."
"Okay then. I'll wait for you."
"What's up?"
“No.”
"Oh." The cold girl stopped looking at him and continued typing on the keyboard, replying to an email.
After everything was done, she picked up her bag and walked towards the elevator with Cheng Zhu.
After entering the elevator, she took the initiative to ask, which was rare: "Tomorrow we are going to Shanghai on a business trip. Will you drive yourself or let Xiao Wang drive?"
Hearing this, Cheng Zhu smiled and replied, "The roads in the Magic City are so difficult to drive on. It's easy to make mistakes even with navigation. Of course, I'll ask Xiao Wang to drive."
After saying that, he asked back: "What's wrong?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingning nodded slightly and said, “Nothing, just asking casually.”
The next day, Cheng Zhu got into the company's four-seater commercial vehicle.
The partition between the front and back rows was not raised at this moment, so the driver Xiao Wang could communicate with him normally.
"Xiao Wang, have you ever been to Shanghai?" Cheng Zhu asked.
"I went there with my parents when I was a child to see the Oriental Pearl Tower." Xiao Wang replied.
"The roads in Shanghai are not easy to drive on. After getting off the highway, don't drive too fast and don't drive in the wrong direction." Cheng Zhu ordered.
"Okay."
Today's schedule is to go to the headquarters of Ele.me first, as he has several meetings to attend.
Then, I will have dinner with Zhang Xuhao and Zhang Tao in the evening.
After arriving at Ele.me, Cheng Zhu was taken directly to Zhang Xuhao's office.
Haoge's hospitality was exactly the same as Cheng Zhu's in Hangzhou. He asked, "Ice Coke?"
"OK."
Cheng Zhu sat down on the sofa and said with a smile, "You always complain that the Coke in my company has no carbonated drinks. I want to see what the Coke in your Hungry Coke is like."
Zhang Xuhao handed over a can of Coke with a smile, but when Cheng Zhu opened the bottle, there was not much sound of steam.
"It's so funny. Now I don't even have to try the drinks." Cheng Zhu complained.
"Actually, I haven't been drinking soda much. I only indulge myself occasionally when I go to your company," said Zhang Xuhao.
"What do you mean? Lose weight?"
The slightly plump man with glasses nodded and did not deny it. He said, "That's one thing. Another thing is that most people who come to the company drink tea."
Cheng Zhu was sitting in the office of the passionate Hao Ge. He looked at the time and said, "The meeting will start in half an hour. You go do your thing. I'll just sit here for a while."
"Okay, I do have a lot of things to do right now." Zhang Xuhao was not polite.
The two of them are very familiar with each other now, so there is no need to be so polite.
Half an hour later, the two walked into the meeting room talking and laughing.
Today, Long Wei, the co-founder of Dianping, also came to Hungry and participated in the meeting on behalf of Dianping.
After all, Dianping is also one of the investors of Ele.me.
Moreover, the money they invested in Ele.me is much more than the "bonus" of Cheng Zhu.
In addition, someone from Penguin's side also came today, a woman who looked very capable.
Before the meeting officially started, Zhang Xuhao took Cheng Zhu to find Long Wei and Penguin representatives to introduce Cheng Zhu to them.
Long Wei looked at the young man who Zhang Tao described as extremely weird. For the time being, he could not see anything except his unstoppable handsomeness.
Under the enthusiastic introduction of the passionate Hao Ge, everyone also left their contact information with each other.
At the meeting, Cheng Zhu basically just listened and hardly expressed any opinions or views of his own.
Long Wei, on the other hand, talked a lot.
Cheng Zhu was not very interested in Long Wei. Instead, he was more interested in contacting the capable woman from Penguin.
Her name is Guan Meiting.
He was not paying attention to her because she was pretty.
This Guan Meiting looks like an ordinary woman.
Cheng Zhu observed that she was similar to himself and did not speak much in the meeting. Only at the end of the meeting, on behalf of Penguin, did she ask a few questions of concern and requested a piece of data.
Obviously, this is how Penguin works. After investing money in you, they won't interfere too much.
Penguin, an Internet giant, can be said to have the most incredible traffic in the country.
For Penguin, investing money means having more channels to monetize traffic.
Cheng Zhu personally definitely prefers this kind of cooperation model. It only looks at the money, which is sometimes quite good.
Just wanting money is better than wanting power like Alibaba.
Oh yes, in addition to wanting power, they will also kick out the founder in the future.
Cheng Zhu felt that his macho butt was not meant to be kicked.
After the meeting, there was another internal meeting of Are You Hungry in the afternoon.
Only Zhang Xuhao and a few co-founders were present.
He also brought Cheng Zhu to such an internal meeting.
In the small conference room, Cheng Zhu was more talkative than before.
Of course, there is a limit to how many there are.
However, although he didn't speak much, he was able to point out some of the current pain points of Ele.me.
In addition, some of the solutions he proposed also made Zhang Xuhao fall into deep thought again and again.
After the meeting, the two returned to the office together.
There is still some time before the agreed dinner time, so they can still have a "private chat" for a while.
Strictly speaking, they are our family. Cheng Zhu and Zhang Tao can only be considered half our family.
This has to do with personal relationships and the degree of interest binding.
Zhang Xuhao directly revealed to Cheng Zhu: "I have been in contact with Zhang Tao quite frequently these days. I feel that, well, personally, I feel that he has a tendency to merge with Mi Tuan."
Cheng Zhu nodded and said, "This is normal. Dianping is different from Mi Tuan. Dianping is a company that was founded in 2002 after all. It has been in business for more than ten years and was profitable before. It stopped making profits because of the Thousand Groups War."
The span of more than ten years, the bloodiness and high pressure of the war will make entrepreneurs feel extremely exhausted.
What's more, the [capital winter] has arrived.
"What if the merger really happens? What should I do? How should we cope with it? The situation will be very embarrassing!" said Zhang Xuhao.
Should we continue fighting or merge together?
The passionate Hao brother is absolutely unwilling to merge.
The prospects for the takeout market are so promising that investors from all walks of life are betting heavily on it. It is completely unlike the group buying sector, which has already reached its twilight.
What's more, his mentality is completely different from Zhang Tao's.
Are You Hungry? was the first to do takeout.
In other words, they are the earliest innovators and pioneers for the takeout market to reach its current scale!
Damn it, we worked so hard to open up the market, and then, you took over the market?
Shit, it seems like I’m opening up the market for you?
I spent so much energy and burned so much money, but the result was to cultivate customers for MiTuan and increase its user base?
Isn't this just making things easier for you, Wang Xin?
What’s more, Hungry?’s current market share is not inferior to that of Miduan Takeout.
First- and second-tier cities are Zhang Xuhao's kingdom, just like his base camp Shanghai. Ele.me's market share is extremely exaggerated, and the market share of all other companies combined is not enough.
At this moment, Cheng Zhu looked at Zhang Xuhao who was extremely worried, leaned back, and then crossed his legs.
He was already prepared and immediately said a few words that shocked Zhang Xuhao immensely.
“In fact, we still have a way out.”
"What's the way out?"
"Do you think [Baidu Takeaway] is delicious? Have you ever thought about eating it?"
Zhang Xuhao couldn't sit still all of a sudden.
"Eat who? Who do you want to eat?"
"Me? Me!"
“I’m going to eat Baidu, one of the three Internet giants?”
Brother Hao felt like he was dumbfounded by what he heard.
(ps: asking for monthly ticket~)
