Chapter 237 Why did some orphans suddenly appear with so many likes?
2:30 in the afternoon.
On Weibo and major social media platforms, just as the Yun Duo clothing was being hailed as a deity, a number of questioning voices began to emerge.
Even under the latest official news updates of Yunduo, many negative comments with a high number of likes suddenly appeared.
"Do you think the sudden exposure and viral popularity of Yunduo's donations is too much of a coincidence? Yesterday, they donated 18 million yuan, and today it was exposed, with orders already exceeding 20 million yuan. Is this a premeditated patriotic marketing hype?"
"I think so too. And is the 18 million donated by Yun Duo really 18 million? Didn't they expose some companies before, claiming to donate 60 million, but the actual cost of the materials was only 5 million! Besides, how could Yun Duo, a newly opened company, have so much money?"
"That's right, they say it's 120,000 sets of children's clothing. What if they were just made from leftover clothing scraps? Can they really be worth 18 million? So everyone, please stop praising Yun Duo, okay? This is just patriotic marketing hype from the merchants!"
"If this is truly hype, then this store is incredibly ambitious, isn't it? They want to dominate the market? Many of their competitors are being lambasted for not donating in time. The customer service lady was even brought to tears!"
"Damn, why are there suddenly these orphans with so many likes? Isn't the rhythm too obvious?"
"They must be some trolls hired by someone with a red eye. Instead of focusing on product development, they're resorting to malicious smear campaigns against Yun Duo. This is truly childish behavior!"
"Haha, you become an orphan just by questioning it. The ones above are the ones Yun Duo planted in the comment section to promote patriotism!"
…
For a time, driven by the rhythm of a huge army of netizens, the rumor of "questioning the authenticity of Yun Duo's donation" became more and more outrageous from the beginning. In less than an hour, the topic #Yun Duo fraudulent donation# began to become a hot search on Weibo with terrifying popularity.
In the classroom...
Computer operating systems course.
Ji Chen is in the ultimate learning state, madly absorbing the knowledge in the textbook.
The old professor was standing on the podium, imparting knowledge to the students attentively, and many of the students who were listening attentively were drowsy.
At this time, a burst of low-pitched discussions suddenly came from behind Ji Chen, Yun Chuan and others.
"Oh my god! That Yun Duo seems to be scamming people for donations, doing some patriotic marketing. I just snatched some clothes from their store this morning!"
"Huh? Patriotic marketing, this method is too disgusting, right? Confirmed? I think their clothes are pretty good."
"I also think this company is good, but the topic of them defrauding donations has already become a trending topic on Weibo!"
"This is too sudden! I just told my comrades next door that Yun Duo sponsored our school sports uniforms this year. How come they're suddenly scamming us for donations?"
…
At this time, Yun Chuan, Fan Zhuo and others heard the discussion behind them, and secretly took out their mobile phones and opened Weibo.
After Yun Chuan opened Weibo, he was slightly stunned when he saw the hot topic about Yun Duo's fraudulent donation, which had already reached 28th on the hot search list. He clicked on it and his eyes widened when he saw the comments from netizens.
There were only voices of condemnation and questioning!
"Holy crap, no way, Yun Duo really committed fraud?"
Not only Yun Chuan, but also Fan Zhuo and others were confused. Before coming to class, Yun Duo was the pride of domestic products praised by the whole network. How come in just a short while, she became a fraudulent donation?
Ji Chen, the boss of Yun Duo, was even more confused after hearing the discussions of his classmates and the words of Yun Chuan and others.
But he was only stunned for a few seconds before he reacted.
It seems that Yun Duo was praised too highly by netizens, which has affected some people's interests.
In this Internet age, it is really easy to stir up public opinion to discredit a brand or person.
And it became a hot topic so quickly, the other party must have spent a lot of money to get on the list.
Thinking of this, Ji Chen turned off the ultimate learning mode, took out his mobile phone, and looked at the comment section of Yun Duo’s official Weibo.
Sure enough, the comment section was already filled with a lot of cursing at this time.
Although a lot of water armies emerged and many netizens were led astray, there were still many loyal fans of Yun Duo who spoke standard Zaun dialect and confronted the water armies in the comment section.
"This store is disgusting. They're scamming donations and hyping it up, and they've even hired a bunch of online influencers to influence the situation. I'm going to return the product immediately."
"Add me in. I originally wanted to come here to show my support, but I didn't expect to be disgusted."
"I'll retreat too!"
"Those of you who said you wanted to return the goods, hurry up and do it! You're dead! These are all new accounts registered this afternoon. Did you really buy Yun Duo women's clothing? Orphans!"
"That's right, it's obvious they're just some troll army hired by Red Eye. Ignore them, just start bashing them!"
The onlookers: "This, this... Which side is telling the truth? Shit! I can't even pick a side!"
…
Ji Chen glanced at the comment section for a while, his brows slightly furrowed.
His original intention of Yun Duo was just to build a good brand and make money.
Who would have thought that the factory would suddenly become popular because of a donation, and was almost razed to the ground by netizens. Now it is being maliciously slandered. It is really a headache.
Moreover, it is impossible to produce 120,000 sets of children's clothing so quickly, and now those internet trolls will definitely continue to make a fuss about the fraudulent donations.
Just at this moment, a WeChat message popped up on Ji Chen's mobile phone screen.
He clicked on the message. It was from Zheng Chengren. "Xiao Ji, you should be in class. I didn't want to disturb you, but a lot of customers have been coming out now, maliciously slandering and abusing our store. Several customer service girls have been brought to tears. Furthermore, the return rate on our online store has suddenly increased. I'm afraid if this continues, it will have a huge impact on the company and its employees. Do you have any solutions?"
Ji Chen frowned slightly after seeing Zheng Chengren's message, thought for a moment, and replied, "Online public opinion is indeed terrifying, but what we need to do now is to remain calm and focus on production. As for customer service, anyone who indiscriminately insults us should be blocked and ignored. We are upright and have nothing to fear from the shadows. Time will tell."
The sudden and terrifying public opinion on the Internet can easily affect one's mentality, but now is the time not to be impatient, and there is no need to rush to prove oneself. Anyway, no matter what Yun Duo does now, there will definitely be a group of water armies following the rhythm and questioning whether it is fake.
Ji Chen sent the message, and soon Zheng Chengren replied.
"Okay, if I encounter that kind of customer again, I will have customer service block them. I will also monitor the workers' production. I will communicate with you in a timely manner if there is any situation."
