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

Chapter 797 This is part of the plan
Looking at his deskmate, a recent graduate who had just entered the workforce, Xiao Zhang smiled. He was still too young.
"Forget about the other side, it would be great if our company could learn from Shanghe Technology next door."

"Shanghe Technology?"

"You know that company not far from our park? Chen Mo used to work there."

"Chen Mo? The Chen Mo from the other side at the company's annual party just now? Brother Zhang, you're not kidding me, are you?"

“I overheard some employees from Shanghe talking about this during lunch the other day. They said that Chen Mo used to be from Shanghe and that he had sent a Shanghe boss to jail for several years. Last year, the boss was released and went back to his old ways. He turned over a new leaf and started working hard. Now he pays overtime according to the labor law and is doing quite well.”

"Damn, the boss of Shanghe is also surnamed Wang. We're both surnamed Wang, so why is there such a huge difference? It's only because our company is still making money. Just wait until we're about to go bankrupt and see if he'll change his ways."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhang sneered, "Ha, you're overthinking it. The company is on the verge of collapse; the higher-ups will only become more ruthless, making things even more difficult than they are now."

"Brother Zhang, I think we could try going to Shanghe if we have the chance."

"Okay, let's wait until we're done with this busy period, after the New Year, and when we get our year-end bonuses. Shh, the supervisor's out, time to get back to work."

At the annual Beyond Conference, Chen Mo's keynote speech is regarded as a barometer of the internet industry.

Because the business that the other side is in is all in the spotlight, as long as it is in the spotlight, you can get a piece of the action and be carried along.

Therefore, every year at the Biyuan Annual Meeting, in addition to a large number of netizens and IT professionals, countless bosses of Chinese Internet companies also wait in front of their computers or mobile phones, hoping to discover some new business opportunities.
In the past few years, some companies have indeed reaped considerable benefits. However, this year, the internet giants watching the live stream read a chilling signal from Chen Mo's smile—it was not a business opportunity, but a declaration of war.

Although the Zhiyan and Yuandian platforms have made some companies feel like they have a thorn in their side or a bone stuck in their throat.
However, most people still harbor a侥幸心理 (a gambler's mentality), after all, in today's corporate environment, they have long since mastered the skill of "finding a way around the rules." As long as they promptly bow their heads, admit their mistakes, and pay some "protection money," it's nothing more than a few drinks as punishment.

Companies that have no business dealings with the other side are even more indifferent, thinking that the other side won't be able to take action anytime soon, so what are they afraid of?

Only those companies that depend on the ecosystem on the other side tremble in fear, lest the other side turn around and they be wiped out.

That night, countless bosses secretly cursed someone's ancestors for eighteen generations.

When the lights of the Bird's Nest went out, the internet frenzy was just beginning.

Within just two hours, a batch of reports with peculiar angles suddenly appeared on various platforms:

The other side of the strait has declared war on its business partners, accused of monopolizing the market under the guise of "anti-involution."

The Monopoly Trap Behind "Anti-Involution": Unveiling the "Good Money" Conspiracy on the Other Side

"The higher you climb, the colder it gets; the high-welfare model on the other side is said to be difficult to replicate."

"The richest man's ambition can no longer be hidden: Analysts say the other side may use the moral high ground to purge competitors."

These reports all adopted a three-part structure of "questioning, exposing, and warning," reinterpreting Chen Mo's "anti-involution" declaration as a carefully packaged market plunder.

Meanwhile, the person who started the incident was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the lights of thousands of homes in the distance.

Chen Mo loosened his tie and said to Lu Qi behind him, "Have Chen Tong fire the prepared ammunition."

"Do we need to control the negative public opinion?" Lu Qi asked cautiously.

Having just watched the entire press conference, he gained a more direct understanding of Chen Mo's prestige on the other side for the first time.

"There's no need for that. It would only make us look guilty. We report the facts and do our work in a fact-based manner. We're following an open strategy, not a conspiracy."

"Ok!"

A dozen minutes later, other articles highlighting the "value innovation" of Beyond, emphasizing its benchmark significance in breaking the vicious cycle of the industry, and combining Chen Mo's grassroots rise to become the richest man, emerged, shaping his image as a "business leader." These articles effectively countered the previous public opinion on various platforms. One article, titled "From Grassroots to Richest Man: Chen Mo's 'Beyond Model' Proves: Treating Employees Well and Business Success Are Not Contradictory," appeared.

"Bad money drives out good? No, we choose to be strong good money!"

Chen Mo's scathing critique of competitors: Are you ready? The subtext: Change or die!

This meticulously planned battle of public opinion was merely the opening act of the "Go Ashore Plan".

Such declarations of war and rebellion are not a wise choice to be made in such official and formal settings, whether at Wuzhen Internet Forum or Davos Economic Forum.

After much deliberation, the group ultimately decided to use the informal public forum of the company's internal annual meeting. This approach avoided the constraints of a formal forum while leveraging the reach of live streaming to achieve viral spread.

This is a voice from the other side, and also a test of the waters, probing the reactions of all parties.

Now we see the results. He only said a few words, and before he even had a chance to sit down properly, some people reacted with outrage. Those impatient smears, if they really continue, who knows what kind of trouble they'll drive the demons and monsters in the shadows to.

However, this is also part of the plan.

Let's walk around and take another look.

This annual event, dubbed by the media as the "declaration of the richest man," ultimately came to a close amidst mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.

The very next day, due to the time difference, a major event occurred on the other side of the ocean.

The Chinese internet community was instantly flooded with a major news story, and this time the protagonist was not Chen Mo from across the ocean, but Jack Ma, the chairman of the board of directors of Alibaba Group.

Major media outlets rushed to report on the 40-minute closed-door meeting between Mahathir and prominent political figures.

After the meeting, during a joint media interview, the president, known for his expressive body language, lavished praise on the camera.

"Wow! We had an absolutely brilliant conversation. Jack is an extraordinary entrepreneur, one of the world's most outstanding business leaders. He deeply loves both America and China."

The image of the two holding hands tightly was captured under the spotlight.

Stimulated by this positive news, Alibaba's stock price surged 6% that day.

Browsing through related online reports, Chen Mo's brows furrowed. Thinking about potential future developments, alarm bells rang in his mind: Could this guy be a prostitute?
Realizing that mere speculation was not rigorous enough, Chen Mo immediately deployed Tianji Pavilion, Zhou Shouzi's team, and overseas partners to conduct a comprehensive investigation.

On the third day, after the intelligence from various channels was sorted through by the Tianji Pavilion system, a complete report was presented to Chen Mo's desk.

According to reports, this is not the first time that President Mahmoud has met with international political figures.

Similar contacts occurred during the previous government's term, and the report details key information such as background analysis of the intermediaries and speculation on the core content of the talks.
Chen Mo forwarded the complete set of materials to Lu Qi.

An hour later, Lu Qi arrived to report: "President Mo, this is the response plan I devised based on intelligence from the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion."

After quickly reviewing the plan, Chen Mo's eyes flashed with admiration: "It's highly targeted, just what I wanted. Let's proceed with this plan."

As he spoke, he pointed to a section of the plan, "I will immediately begin communicating about the parts that require my involvement. Taking advantage of the year-end period, I will try to secure a cooperation agreement first. I think the leaders will be happy to see this kind of cooperation."

"understand!"
