Chapter 1267 Negative Online Comments

Shi Qiang was shocked when he heard this.

"No deposit? If no deposit, will the damage rate be very high?"

"The deduction mechanism can be stricter for users who do not need a deposit. Once a bad record is found, they will be directly blacklisted and will never be allowed to use Qixuan bicycles. For users who pay a deposit, the previous deduction mechanism will still be used."

Shi Lei paused and added: "You should ask the planning department to pay more attention to this aspect and make the policy as reasonable as possible."

"Okay, I will start this matter when I return to the company tomorrow. There should be no problem. There will definitely be a more complete plan within a week, and then we can enter the promotion period. At the end of June or July 1st, this activity can be launched on time. But Mr. Shi, does this mean to push users out?"

"These are all bad users, and they will be pushed out. It would be better if they included all bad users in the user group of competitors. If they punish them equally severely, it would be better, but if the punishment is not strong enough, it will encourage the behavior of these bad users. By then, other users will follow suit. Anyway, there is no punishment, and competitors will be embarrassed."

Shi Qiang was stunned and then laughed.

"Mr. Shi, your idea is a bit bad. Not only do you want to eliminate inferior users, but you also want to use bad money to drive out good money and disrupt the normal operation of competitors."

"I didn't do that. This is just the normal flow of users. We drove them out of Qixuan's user group, but I can't control the user groups of other companies. The final choice is in the hands of the leaders of those companies. If they want to develop users at all costs, then let them do it. If they think a little longer, they should know that some users cannot be kept."

Shi Qiang nodded and didn't say anything, but he had roughly agreed with Shi Lei's idea in his heart.

...

Days without pressure are boring. Shi Lei went to the capital, but Wei Xingyue was busy with the D round of financing and had no time to entertain him.

Shi Lei saw Wei Xingyue every day, basically at one or two o'clock in the middle of the night, and she left the company and returned home only when she really couldn't hold on.

In this case, Shi Lei certainly couldn't torment Wei Xingyue.

Maotou's injury was almost healed. Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue asked him to continue to rest. However, the black guy felt that although he helped Wei Xingyue to block the bullet, Shi Lei and Wei Xingyue were very good to him. He didn't want to lie at home and eat for free, so he insisted on continuing to drive for Wei Xingyue.

Shi Lei thought about it and let him go. After all, driving was something Maotou should be able to bear.

It was late June in a flash. Shi Qiang also took out his summer plan and started to promote it.

Shi Qiang also kept reporting to Shi Lei about the contact with Penguin. It was not just smooth, but quite smooth. This was probably what WeChat had always wanted to do. The two sides hit it off.

Ali was not very positive about this. Shi Lei estimated that their contact with Chongbai and other companies had probably made quite substantial progress. After all, now apart from Qixuan, Chongbai is the company with the largest share of the shared bicycle market, and Cao Chong, who was originally not penniless, at least had no surplus food. Now Ali is willing to acquire, although not a full acquisition, he no longer has the heart to continue to compete with Qixuan.

The summer plan should help Qixuan expand its market share again.

Kong Yue's market in Qiannan has basically entered a short period of saturation. She has increased the number of electric vehicles released to Qixuan's existing market, but the funds are already stretched.

Penguin probably wanted to show goodwill, and they are probably more optimistic about the development of Qiyue, especially Huo Chengdong has already built the basic framework of Qixuan Australia, Wang Ziye has already rushed to Sydney to take office, and Qixuan Australia is about to open. Of course, this news has already been passed back to China, and Penguin has increased the valuation of Qiyue by 10% based on the market's valuation of Qiyue, preparing to fully acquire Qiyue's A round of financing.

Shi Lei used the 160 million yuan obtained from Qixuan's cashing out, and took out 100 million to pay Bai Kaishui in exchange for Qiyue's shares.

At the same time, after he paid the 30 million yuan required by Qixuan Australia, plus the 10 million yuan he originally held, he still has 40 million yuan of independent funds in hand.

Wei Xingyue finally sold 10% of the shares of Flash at a valuation of 8.6 billion, and cashed out 860 million.

Previously, her valuation expectation for Flash's D round was only more than 7 billion, and the amount of 8.6 billion can be said to have greatly exceeded her expectations.

The reason for such performance has a lot to do with the benign promotion of Qixuan during this period.

In one year, a company with an investment of only tens of millions has a market value of 8.6 billion, and after listing, it will not be a problem to break through 10 billion. Such a speed of capital accumulation can be said to be far beyond the imagination of most people.

In the D round of Flash, there is actually a shadow of Penguin. It is an investment company controlled by them that led this financing, and finally this investment company took a five-point share.

Shi Lei knew that Penguin's target would certainly not be Flash and Qiyue, but Qixuan. They used such a small investment to exchange Shi Lei's trust in them, so as to lay a good foreshadowing for the final entry into Qixuan, or even the acquisition of Qixuan.

Shi Lei told Wei Xingyue that since he had indirectly connected with Penguin, he might as well have more contact with them.

After the listing, Wei Xingyue wanted to privatize Kuaishan, and she would undoubtedly need the support of investors. The funds from her own sale of the foreign trade company would definitely not be enough to privatize Kuaishan. Penguin believed that they should be willing to provide financial support for Qixuan.

Two days later, Shi Qiang excitedly called Shi Lei and said that his negotiations with Penguin had made a breakthrough.

After promising to give all the D round of financing to Penguin, Penguin said that they were willing to add an interface on WeChat, and WeChat users would be able to use Qixuan bicycles directly without downloading the Qixuan APP.

In this regard, Shi Lei did not think this was too good news. He was worried that this would tie Qixuan firmly to WeChat payment, which would affect the subsequent negotiations.

After thinking for a while, Shi Lei told Shi Qiang: "This condition is a double-edged sword, with both advantages and disadvantages. I think you can continue to contact Penguin and tell them that we are very grateful for WeChat's additional interface. However, the interface on WeChat must only be used for newly registered users who use Qixuan Bike for the first three times. That is, the users who are exempt from paying a deposit. Once you enter the fourth time, when you need to pay a deposit to use it, you still have to download the Qixuan APP."

Shi Qiang quickly understood what Shi Lei meant, and he said: "Mr. Shi, are you worried that we will be tied too tightly by the big ship of WeChat?"

Shi Lei nodded and said: "Anyway, I don't want us to be controlled by any giant company, no matter how much sincerity they give."

Soon after Shi Qiang hung up the phone, a large number of negative comments about Qixuan's summer plan appeared on the Internet.
