Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 525 Juicer, start!

While Didi and Kuaidi are busy working to ensure server stability.

When Meituan Waimai began to try to win people's hearts and respond to sudden negative public opinion through a series of benefits.

Time passes minute by minute.
11:29, inside Qingteng College.

"Countdown: 10931!"

Facing the burning gazes of the audience, Xu Chaojun watched the second hand on his watch slowly pass the 12 o'clock direction.

Just like pressing the button to detonate a nuclear bomb in a movie or TV show, he decisively pressed the Enter key on the computer in front of him.

pat!

Countless characters flashed across the screen, as if a fuse was beginning to spread.
The command was quickly transmitted from Xu Chaojun's computer to the six system terminals on the scene, swaying into the sky like a flare, breaking the silence of the night sky.

The target is Meituan Takeout, and the juicer system is officially launched.

"Report, the Skynet system has been activated, and the Meituan APP has been included in the monitoring scan range. Everything is normal. It is expected that after one hour, after crawling and collecting, the other party's overall traffic data information trend will be continuously monitored."

"Report, the black hole system has been activated, the fog has dispersed, and there are no abnormalities at present."

"Report, the Yinbing Transit System has been activated and is waiting for loading..."

"Report, the Torrent system has been activated, the probe has been activated, and each node is being activated according to the established route. It is expected to dive into the established orbit in 2 minutes and 15 seconds..."

"Report, the Snow Traceless System has been activated and has begun to disguise and shift links on the Torrent System data stream..."

With each report, countless streams of information poured out from Qingteng Academy, ignoring space and time.

One gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things. These data streams spread out in data centers around the world. After being encapsulated, grafted, and translated, they are simplified and flow silently into Meituan’s data centers in various places.

At the same time, Meituan headquarters, technology center operation and maintenance department.

The data on the monitoring panel suddenly shook slightly, and then quickly returned to normal, like a ripple on a calm lake, fleeting.

"what?"

The operation and maintenance personnel on duty stared at the originally smooth curve on the screen. Suddenly, there was a tiny fluctuation that rose and fell, like a thin nail on a smooth road, abrupt and short-lived.

"Why did the system suddenly shake?" As a technician, he could not ignore any disturbance. He quickly started to investigate, but strangely, there was no abnormal record in the log.

"Could it be that the network fluctuations caused the erroneous data?" Although he did not find any obvious problems, he still called the team leader over out of caution.

"Boss, do you think this fluctuation is normal? I just checked and found an anomaly in the data level, but strangely there is no error log."

"Well, let me see what's going on." The team leader rolled up his sleeves, sat down at the employee's workstation, stared at the abnormal bulge on the screen, and tapped his fingers quickly on the keyboard.

On the screen, various commands were generated like mercury pouring out, and then the network traffic data of the corresponding server was output.

The team leader's smooth combo made the maintenance guy very envious, and he wondered when he could reach such a level.
"Well, judging from the data and performance, there is indeed an abnormality, but it only lasts for a few milliseconds." The team leader nodded thoughtfully, as if he had some ideas.

Seeing this, the operation and maintenance guy felt relieved. After all, the team leader was a veteran employee who joined Meituan when it was first established. His technical ability was unquestionable. In the department, the team leader was recognized as a technical god by everyone.

Whether it is network security or server problems, the team leader can usually draw a conclusion with just a few glances, and in retrospect, his judgment is almost never wrong.

Whenever we encounter problems that we can’t solve, the team leader can always solve them easily, and he will even use his off-get off work time to share his technical experience with everyone.

Therefore, the operation and maintenance guy had full trust in the team leader and felt that this time would be no exception - the team leader would definitely be able to find the problem quickly and solve it with just a few clicks.

However, one minute later, he saw the team leader frowning slightly and muttering, "That's not right..."

Three minutes later, the team leader's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He expanded the scope of investigation, opened the database, operation and maintenance system, and log system, and analyzed them one by one.
Ten minutes later, the maintenance guy stood aside, his legs numb. He looked at the silent team leader and didn't dare to speak rashly, for fear of interrupting the team leader's train of thought.

In their line of work, the most taboo thing is being interrupted once entering the flow state.

Once the train of thought is interrupted, reconnecting it is not a simple matter of "disconnecting and reconnecting". Instead, it takes several times the time cost, and you may never get back to the original train of thought.

Therefore, for programmers, being interrupted when they are immersed in writing code is like cutting off their source of income, and it is not unfair to be beaten - unless the boss comes to find them, then there is nothing they can do.

As for how to judge whether it is okay to disturb someone, it depends on whether the other person is wearing headphones when writing code, especially noise-canceling headphones...

"Cough cough~"

The team leader's coughing brought the maintenance guy back to his senses. He quickly asked, "Boss, did you find anything?"

"I just took a comprehensive look and found no abnormalities on our side, but there was indeed a fluctuation. So I expanded the scope of investigation and found that this abnormality came from outside!"

"External?" The maintenance guy's eyes lit up, and he had a bold guess in his mind. He couldn't help rubbing his hands, "Boss, do you mean that there are hackers attacking us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was slapped by his team leader, "Have you read too many novels? Where do all these cyber attacks come from on the Internet!
If there really is a cyber attack, how could I not know about it? Do you really think that our Meituan cyber security system is just for show?

The external party I was referring to was the network operator. I just expanded the scope of investigation and checked the data flow on the network operator's side. There was indeed a change at that time point, and the time points match. "

The maintenance guy suddenly realized what was going on and clapped his fists. "Oh, I understand! That's the anomaly caused by network fluctuations!"

"Well, that's what it means."

The operation and maintenance guy was a little confused again: "But don't we have network fluctuation log monitoring? Why is it not triggered?"

I'm not a god, how would I know why it didn't trigger!

The team leader complained in his heart, but he still had to make it up on the surface, "I remember that the takeaway team conducted a deep migration and integration with our system a few days ago. It is very likely that the fusion of the two systems, coupled with the increase in traffic, caused network fluctuations and caused occasional anomalies with a very low probability.

So, for now, this anomaly can be ignored.”

"Do I need to write this anomaly into my daily work report?"

“No, in case the higher-ups see this and make a fuss, we’ll have to get to the bottom of it.

I don't want to work overtime for such a trivial matter. Have you forgotten how many reflections and summaries we wrote for a trivial bug before? We still have so much work to do. Let's not waste all our energy on meetings and reflections. Let's leave it at that for now." "Okay, I think so too!"

Then the two Meituan operation and maintenance personnel ignored this inexplicable anomaly and continued to work.

What they don’t know is that a “seed” with an equivalent to a nuclear weapon has been quietly planted and is taking root and sprouting in their internal network system, multiplying and spreading silently.

It is like a silent plague, penetrating into every corner of Meituan's internal system, but it is also like a spring breeze, moistening everything silently.
Upstairs, several senior executives of Meituan gathered together and were nervously discussing how to deal with the sudden and fierce attack launched by Ele.me on the group buying market.

Wang Huiwen stared at the "5% discount" slogan of Ele.me targeting the group-buying market on the screen, frowning, "I thought they would fight back and forth with us in the takeaway market, but I didn't expect them to avoid the battle and move the battlefield. Ele.me's move of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west is quite vicious..."

Wang Xing was not as cautious as his old classmate. Instead, he smiled and shook his head.

"Zhang Xuhao's family owns a fairly large building materials company in Shanghai, with businesses in real estate, construction and decorative materials. As a second-generation rich man, he has been exposed to the business world since he was a child, so it's not surprising that he has some experience.

Gan Jiawei was full of fighting spirit, and his tone was full of banditry, "Old Wang (Wang Huiwen), the other party just wants to start a price war, right? We are the 'ancestors' of price wars!
If Ele.me wants to fight, we will fight and let them know that group buying business is not their takeaway home ground. We have been cultivating here for many years, and the moat has been dug deep and wide. We are just afraid that they will not come, and then Ele.me will be beaten to a pulp! "

"Humph, you really don't know how expensive fuel and rice are, right? You just start a price war as soon as you talk about it?" Guo Qing, the CFO of Meituan, stood up, walked to the whiteboard, picked up a pen, and wrote and calculated, "Let me do the math for you."

"In 2013, the total transaction volume of our group buying business was 128 billion. Based on last month's revenue, this year's group buying business will grow to 230 billion, an average of 19.17 billion per month.

如果我们选择跟进饿了么5折的补贴政策，意味着平台需要补贴其中50%的金额，也就是19.17亿× 50%= 9.585亿/月。”

"We charge an average of 30% commission to merchants. We can give up the good part and stop making any profit. But what about the remaining 20%? We need to pay for it ourselves, which means we have to spend more than 2 million yuan in the group buying market every month!

This is not the end. The 2% discount subsidy may greatly increase user activity and order volume, resulting in the actual subsidy amount being higher than the theoretical value. The more than million mentioned above is already my conservative estimate.

This is just a group purchase business. Don’t forget, we just announced a series of subsidies and social security for takeout today…”

Wang Xing interjected, “Don’t take social security into consideration for now. It’s just a gimmick to temporarily stabilize public sentiment. Even if it has to be paid, a little can be deducted from the merchants and riders.”

Guo Qing nodded. "Okay, even if social security is not counted, then the takeaway subsidy must be counted, right? According to the current scale, it is at least 1 million per month. If we choose to follow, we will not only not make any money every month, but also lose 3 million. This is really a loss-making business..."

After he finished speaking, he threw away the whiteboard pen, looking painful. After all, as the "God of Wealth" of Meituan, he had just raised some money in the C round. Although it was indeed a lot, he had to pay it out before he could even warm up to it. He felt very distressed.

Wang Huiwen glanced at Wang Xing and said, "You are the boss. Whether to follow or not, it is ultimately up to you to make the final decision."

Wang Xing snorted and said firmly, "Follow her, why not? If you don't follow her, it's like a man who goes out to have affairs with other women and watches his wife being teased and molested through the surveillance camera at home? Is he still a man?"

We emerged from the price war. I think everyone here understands the power of the formula "money = market" better than anyone else. In the group purchase market, we don't need to win by surprise, we just need to fight against the opponent's moves in an open and aboveboard manner.

The other party started a price war, and we followed suit. We have the advantages of users, merchants, and the market itself, and I don't think the other party can turn the tables.

As for the money, Lao Guo, don't worry. Ele.me's move is definitely not a long-term solution. The abnormal measures are only temporary. We just follow suit and spend it. Everything is for the market. If we spend it now and take the market, we will pay it back double in the future. "

Guo Qing still had some concerns. "Behind Ele.me is the wealthy Bi'an. I'm worried that they will turn this abnormal method into a normal one and keep burning it. After all, Chen Mo never plays by the rules..."

Wang Xing chuckled, with a sly tone in his voice, "Haha~ We are all on the same side, so I will talk behind closed doors. Ele.me has people behind it, but we don't? Think about our investment institutions, which one of them is not wealthy and powerful?"

He paused and suddenly asked a seemingly irrelevant question, "Let me ask you, where is a mole that doesn't worry you?"

Guo Qing was stunned and didn't react, "Uh... this..."

Wang Huiwen, whose hometown is Liaoning, responded subconsciously with a northeastern accent, "It's on someone else's face, so you don't have to worry!"

The others laughed.

Wang Xing smiled slyly, "So, Lao Guo, the same principle applies to us spending money! So according to what I just said, since Ele.me has made a move, there is no reason for us not to follow suit!"

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison.

As the meeting drew to a close, Wang Huiwen brought up another matter. "Regarding the malicious interpretation of Meituan's welfare policy online, should we follow the plan we had previously made and let some Internet trolls lead the way?"

Wang Xing nodded. "Well, it's just throwing dirty water, who wouldn't do that? Anyway, everyone has something dirty on them, and the more it gets hyped up, the more heated it gets. It's not necessarily a bad thing. You're good at this, so you can do whatever you want."

"I understand." Wang Huiwen replied, with a gleam in his eyes.

"There is nothing new on the Internet, dear B friends:

I am your old friend and old servant, known as "Internet microscope, senior OB observer, and the civet cat under the melon field and plum tree"

Suddenly, a spring breeze comes one night, you finish your singing and I come on stage!

These past two days have been truly dazzling and overwhelming. Let me give you a detailed overview.

You thought the thawing of online ride-hailing services was the beginning of a “Three Kingdoms War”? But the two companies failed before the fight even started, becoming a “two heroes playing badly”.

The old minister who was watching the fun was a little disappointed that there was so much thunder but little rain. He turned around and saw what was going on.

When the sun goes down in one direction, the sun goes down in the other. While the online ride-hailing service hasn’t taken off, the food delivery service has started to work hard again.

Do you think the food delivery market is a two-person show between Meituan and Ele.me? Ele.me has made a comeback and directly entered Meituan’s group buying nest. When the 5% discount trick was launched, the industry exclaimed: "This is going to overturn the table!"

Next, let's see how Meituan will break the trick.
Do you think Alibaba and Bi'an are just watching the show from behind? It turns out that they have already made plans in secret, preparing to add some "spice" to this melee.

but! Yes!
Have you forgotten something?
Where is Lao San? Where is Nuomi? Where is Baidu Waimai?
AB are both taking action, why are the B of Baidu and the T of Tencent suddenly silent?
Should he sit back and wait to reap the benefits, or is there something else going on?
Want to know what happens next?

Bang! (Gavel)

Month. Please follow me and I will explain it to you next time.

Although this video of the phased review of the incident was well-narrated, it still attracted a lot of criticism from netizens:
"Is it okay, my dear? It's only two and a half minutes. It's not even as long as a song. Who would want to watch it?"

"You keep up with current events. You just released the news today and you released a video in the evening."

"You work like a shovel every day, and you still want attention with your dedication, bah!"

"Damn you, you out-of-chapter dog!"
