Chapter 569 It’s Not About Harming Others and Not Benefiting Oneself.

Compared with Qi Xuan's active attack under the leadership of Yao Er, Cao Chong's counterattack seemed particularly ridiculous.

Cao Chong's official social account cannot do anything except refute rumors, and even his own personal account cannot be used. In the media, it is impossible for anyone to risk being sent a lawyer's letter to help him target Qixuan. Therefore, Cao Chong could only find a public relations company.

The public relations company was very interested when they heard about it, but when asked if Cao Chong had any evidence to prove that Qixuan was responsible for this incident, Cao Chong could only say awkwardly that he didn't.

Fortunately, the public relations company would not let money go unearned, so they gave Cao Chong an idea, saying that they could use their marketing account to publish a long Weibo with suspicions and speculations as the main content, hoping that it would be forwarded by marketing accounts at all levels. Finally get users’ attention.

Cao Chong became excited as soon as he heard this. He seemed to have seen this long Weibo with suspicion and speculation as the main content. Under the guidance of the marketing account, it was retweeted over one hundred thousand and even one million, and then attracted the attention of the whole people and caused a big stir. In the end, Qixuan was accused of unfair competition. Qixuan's business plummeted, while Chongbai's business rebounded strongly.

So the public relations company started to operate, but the effect after the long Weibo release made Cao Chong feel extremely disappointed.

Marketing accounts at all levels are accounts raised by public relations companies themselves. Of course, there is no problem for them to forward them. However, whether it is Chongbai or Qixuan, they are still just those who have just experienced their first investment, and their user base has not exceeded 100,000. of startup companies. Moreover, Chongbai's influence is limited to the Imperial Capital, and Qixuan's influence is limited to Wu Dong. This directly caused netizens who saw this Weibo to have no idea what these two companies were doing. There was no interest, so the number of retweets twelve hours after Chang Weibo was posted was only over 100, of which more than half were retweeted by the PR company’s own marketing account and employees.

Faced with such an embarrassing situation, Cao Chong angrily questioned the public relations company. The public relations company was also a little embarrassed, but it persuaded Cao Chong to buy a navy package, and the public relations company would forward and comment on it. This created a fake prosperity situation. Being on the topic list, even if the position is very low, it will definitely attract more people's attention.

Cao Chong was also in a dilemma and had to spend another sum of money.

In the next twelve hours, the public relations company tried its best to repost this long Weibo post 50,000 to 60,000 times and received more than 40,000 comments. Generally speaking, with this kind of popularity, it should be no problem to enter the ranking list of local hot topics.

In fact, this topic has indeed become a local hot topic, and the ranking is not bad. Seeing this topic of a fight between two startups, Weibo is also very enthusiastic.

However, Yao Er had been waiting for Cao Chong's counterattack. Seeing that his counterattack was so fragile and vulnerable, Yao Er also felt that this opponent was extremely weak. He just picked up his phone and called a Weibo manager, and that person manually removed the topic from the topic list.

Cao Chong saw the number of comments and reposts rising rapidly. He was very excited for a while and didn't even sleep while watching the computer. But after reading for a while, he found that the comments and reposts were all nonsense, and even repeated words began to appear on a large scale. He finally realized that this long Weibo, except for the trolls from the public relations company, was retweeting it. Apart from comments and reviews, it didn’t attract any attention at all.

Naturally, I called and scolded the people from the public relations company again, but this time the people from the public relations company couldn't bear it anymore. They couldn't get any money from Cao Chong anyway, so they launched a counterattack mode on the phone.

As a result, Cao Chong exchanged insults with the other party for a long time, and finally lost to Fang Xiaoyong's fighting power. He became frustrated and hung up the phone.

Sitting at his desk, Cao Chong, who had not slept all night, his eyes red and angry.

He remembered what the person in charge of the public relations company said, "One of your two companies is in the Imperial Capital and the other is in Wudong. There has not been any competition at all. Why are you so bombarded from a distance? Netizens are not fools. They can see it at a glance. It’s you who is framing others. If you dare to chirp to me again, believe it or not, I will write a long Weibo post and oblige you to help the other party to give you a slap in the face?!”

Cao Chong was very angry, but after these words swirled in his mind for a long time, he found out helplessly that whether the PR company's words were rough or not, there was some truth in what they said.

If it weren't for Cao Chong's provocation on the yacht in Magic City and Shi Lei's retort, the two companies would have had to wait until they entered the same city if they wanted to have a real competitive relationship. But now, they really do not constitute a substantial competitive relationship.

This also made Cao Chong calm down. He finally realized that what he should do now is to lay a solid foundation in the imperial capital, and then develop Chongbai Bicycle to the south. After winning the two first-tier cities of Yangcheng and Bao'an, he will Detour back to the Yangtze River Delta and open fire with Qixuan head-on.

Going to fight Qixuan now would not do any good except waste time and energy.

After thinking about this, Cao Chong couldn't help but think of Qi Xuan's actions against them, and he couldn't help but became angry again and smashed the computer in anger.

"These grandsons, it's so bad. What did you do to harm others and not benefit yourself? Mahler Gobi, I have a sharp decline in users, and there is even a run on it, but you can't get any benefits from it at all. . Shi Lei, Shi Lei, you are just harming others and not benefiting yourself, so you are just enjoying yourself!"

This guy is also extremely shameless. He was obviously the one who did the harm to others first. He wanted to speak ill of Shi Lei in front of a bunch of second-generation people in the Demon City, but Shi Lei caught him in the act. Now that Shi Lei has counterattacked, he is blaming others for harming his interests.

And Shi Lei, who was far away in Wudong, had just listened to what Yao Er told him and burst out laughing.

Suddenly, Shi Lei sneezed. He rubbed his nose, but there was no sign of a cold. He said, "Is Cao Chong scolding me right now?"

Yao Er also laughed and said: "I guess he must not have slept well last night. This morning I found that this topic is no longer on the topic list. It would be crazy if I didn't scold you."

Shi Lei shook his head and said, "This move of yours is really damaging."

"I originally planned to save this domain name for when we compete with each other after entering the same city, but when you told me, I thought about using this domain name to divert traffic. It was indeed a bit of a guide, so I just used it. To harm others. In fact, it cannot be said that it is not self-serving. At present, we are the only two companies doing this in the country, and seizing a favorable position has become the top priority. We started slightly later than the other party, and our city status is not as good as the other party, so we are actually at a disadvantage. But if they do this, their Series A valuation will definitely not be high. Our Series A valuation was originally set at more than 300 million, and now, after experiencing such an incident, the valuation should be higher. So. , after the A round of financing, we and Chongbai will basically be on the same starting line. And when we enter the market in Shanghai, even if Chongbai does well in Yangcheng, their funds will become a factor in their development. Due to the constraints, Round B is expected to be advanced again. After two consecutive rounds, we can steadily lead them."
