The black technology empire started with a debt of one billion

Chapter 503 Chapter 518: Taking advantage of the situation to rob Goudong

In the dead of night, the entire Harold Green Road in Austin, Texas, has fallen silent.

The owner of House No. 101 was still watching the live broadcast in front of the TV.

On the TV, four first-stage rockets were parked at the recovery point. At this time, the second-stage rocket was also slowly landing. Max's face became extremely ugly. If Deep Blue Technology can successfully recover the rocket again, then SpaceX can declare bankruptcy tomorrow. .

SpaceX has to charge 7500 million to launch a rocket, otherwise SpaceX will not make any money at all. The problem is who will come to you at such an expensive price.

Except that NASA will give the order to SpaceX for safety reasons, I believe that no more customers will ask SpaceX to launch satellites. After all, SpaceX cannot compete with Deep Blue Aerospace in terms of price.

Will the price be as cheap as Deep Blue Aerospace?
If a satellite is not successfully launched, SpaceX will not only work for nothing but also pay back the money.

Only Deep Blue Technology dared to charge such a low price to launch rockets. Max gritted his teeth with hatred for Deep Blue Aerospace.

At the same time, the screen on the TV switched to the conference hall of the launch base. 27 customer representatives were waiting to connect to their own satellites in the conference hall. Currently, seven satellites have successfully entered the predetermined orbit. These customers also connected through their own satellite software. satellite.

Max knew that nothing unexpected would happen this time, and even if the escape capsule failed to be recovered, Deep Blue would still make a lot of money.

Max knew that if nothing unexpected happened, SpaceX's stock price would fall again tomorrow due to this incident.

Office of the President of Deep Blue Technology.

Comrade Xiao Wang sent Cao Mang the information about Qingdeng Yeyou and others' smear campaign against Deep Blue Aerospace. Cao Mang directly sent a message to Li Xingyong asking him to collect materials and prepare to prosecute these guys.

After the message was sent, Cao Mang opened Douyin and sent a short video.

"As for those netizens who are smearing Deep Blue Aerospace, I suggest you find a lawyer first. It won't be long before the subpoena comes to your home. What you are doing is not just smearing a company, but also denying 270 people. The efforts of scientists.

Deep Blue Technology will never tolerate such behavior. "

Not long after Cao Mang sent the message, 27 satellites successfully entered the predetermined orbit. Now we only need to wait until the escape capsule is successfully recovered to complete the launch.

After seeing Cao Mang's short video, netizens started @青灯夜游 and several other netizens.

"Damn it, those people from Qingdeng Night Tour have already logged out of Weibo."

"They don't think they can't be found if they log out. I think they are too naive."

"Waiting for the news that a few people were caught stepping on sewing machines."

"Sure enough, Mangshen is still the same Mangshen. He never refutes rumors and directly sues. It's different if he has confidence."

"Last night I did some calculations with my mentor. The manufacturing cost of Mangshen's rocket is about one billion. Let's calculate it based on the price of one billion. As long as it is successfully launched and recovered eight times, Donghuang Taiyi's rocket can It paid off.

In the future, if you launch rockets into the sky, it will be a pure profit. It is not an exaggeration to say that Donghuang Taiyi is a cosmic express. "

"Damn it, it turns out launching rockets is so profitable."

"The price charged by Deep Blue Aerospace is already considered low. If Deep Blue charges like SpaceX, it will only need three or four launches to make back the money."

"If you think about it this way, launching something into space may be cheaper than flying on a plane."

"Brother upstairs, be more confident. Didn't you watch the live broadcast of the first launch? One kilogram only costs 1500 US dollars. This price is indeed cheaper than flying."

"When I die, I want to launch my ashes into outer space."

"666, the big brother upstairs is really good at playing. Not only is he environmentally friendly, but he can also travel among the stars."

December 2016, 7.

At 09:30 in the morning, at a certain Buck Cafe in Beijing CBD, Tang Yingying came to the company and the boss asked her to come and buy coffee. At this time, there were many people buying coffee in the coffee shop.

Tang Yingying had nothing to do, so she opened Douyin and planned to browse short videos.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened Douyin, I received a system pop-up window. The system prompted that the Douyin Mall Variety Magic Equipment was online. Tang Yingying was an employee of an IT company, so she also had a certain understanding of the functions of this Variety Magic Equipment.

She immediately opened the independent APP of Douyin Mall. After logging into the APP, the system prompted her to update.

After a while, Tang Yingying updated the independent APP of Douyin Mall.

The updated Douyin Mall APP popped up a novice tutorial. She followed the tutorial and first scanned her face, then entered her personal body information. After a while, the system generated a dummy for her. This dummy Her height and appearance are very similar to hers.

The dummy is 90% similar to her, but of course it is impossible to achieve 100%.

However, a 90% similarity is enough for users to experience the dress-up function.

Then Tang Yingying opened a Douyin mall to search for clothes. All major brand clothing already supported the function of magic clothing. Tang Yingying randomly found a store that supported magic clothing and clicked in. Then she chose another one in the mall. Clothes that are more pleasing to the eye.

After selecting the clothes, the system prompts you whether to use Variety Magic Clothes for preview.

Tang Yingying chose yes without thinking.

At this time, the APP screen turned gray, and after a while a dummy popped up. This dummy was Tang Yingying's dummy. At this time, the dummy had already changed into the clothes she had chosen.

Tang Yingying zoomed in to see what the disguised dummy looked like.

If you don't let it go, you won't know if it will scare you.

After zooming in, she found that the dummy in the magic costume was no different from her real person.

"The fighting sound is awesome." Tang Yingying couldn't help shouting the quintessence of Chinese culture.

Many people turned their attention to her after hearing her voice. Tang Yingying's face immediately turned red when she saw that the situation was not right. At this time, she had already realized her problem, but this function of Douyin Mall was really awesome.

at the same time.

After this function was launched, it also attracted countless discussions among netizens.

“Has anyone ever used the versatile magic equipment function in Douyin Mall?”

"I just updated it and had a little experience with it. This function is really awesome. I am planning to get a haircut this weekend. Now I know what hairstyle suits me."

"This function allows me to know the difference between the buyer's show and the seller's show. I saw a few clothes in the morning and personally thought they were pretty good-looking. However, after trying the Variety Magic Dress, I found that they were not suitable for me at all. These clothes were worn on the seller's model. I look tall, rich and handsome, but when I wear these clothes, I look like a loser. (^)" "Have you received any reminder about the charges for the magic costume?"

“I tried all morning and there was no prompt to charge.”

"I know the reason for the fee for the Variety Magic Costume. After being prompted for the fee, I asked the customer service. There is no fee if you try on the clothes in the mall, but there is a fee if you want to change your hairstyle and makeup.

To be precise, this function is both free and charged. It is free because you can change it for free 3 times a day. If you want to be unlimited, you must open a membership. "

"Isn't it a bit shady to charge for a function as soon as it is launched?"

"People don't give you free times every day. This function requires a lot of server computing power. If it were free all the time, it wouldn't be a loss. I think Douyin's fee is quite reasonable, as long as you don't think about changing your hairstyle every day. There’s no problem with makeup.”

"Holy shit, I found that the members of Variety Magic Suit are so awesome. After signing up as a member, you can also generate photo photos. You can generate one photo photo every day. The background and scene can be customized, and the photo pose can also be customized. This function It’s really awesome.

However, the only flaw is that only ten portrait photos can be generated every day. If you generate more, you need to pay extra. However, it is very cheap to generate a photo. It only costs [-] cents to generate a photo. The surviving photos can be directly Print as a photo. "

"I didn't expect that the Variety Magic Suit has such awesome functions. I spent the money from the photo shoot on my membership. That's not equivalent to free photo shoots. This membership service is so worth it."

Alibaba headquarters in Hangzhou.

After Lao Ma learned about this function, he immediately called Sun Tongyu to his office.

Sun Tongyu rushed to Lao Ma's office as soon as he learned the news. He had already guessed why Lao Ma called him here.

When Sun Tongyu came to Lao Ma's office, Lao Ma was sitting in front of the computer playing with his Deep Blue MAX mobile phone.

"What do you think about the function of the Variety Magic Equipment?" Lao Ma put down his phone and asked after hearing the sound of him pulling out a chair.

"Xuebao will lose at least 70 or more clothing customers. The function of their ever-changing magic clothing is too powerful. This technology is at least six or seven years ahead of us. I suggest cutting the operating expenses of the clothing sector next." Sun Tongyu said.

"We also need to set up a similar project to realize this function. Do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?" Lao Ma asked.

"Deng Sanfeng." Sun Tongyu said a name after thinking about it.

Deng Sanfeng is the technical director of a certain treasure technology department. Deng Sanfeng has done research on artificial intelligence, so it is most appropriate for him to be responsible for the research and development of this project.

"Let Deng Sanfeng hand over the work quickly. I need to see results within a year." Lao Ma said.

Abao can only support it for one year at most. If they cannot produce the same products after one year, they will completely lose the clothing segment. The clothing sector accounts for 17% of Abao’s share. This loss is something that Abao cannot afford. .

"Mr. Ma, we have never heard of technology like this. Is one year too short?" Sun Tongyu asked with a frown.

"If we can't do it within a year, we can just close the clothing sector. Have you seen the backend data before coming here? Since the Variety Magic Dress went online, the clothing transaction volume has dropped by 90%." Lao Ma said.

"Mr. Ma, we can increase our efforts in live streaming to make up for this shortcoming." Sun Tongyu said.

"If it were you, would you choose a place where you can see it from the waist down or a place where you can only see the real thing?" Lao Ma asked.

Lao Ma's question made Sun Tongyu silent. He also knew that this function had threatened a certain treasure, but this function was not so easy to develop.

"I understand." Sun Tongyu replied.

The deadline given by Lao Ma is one year. If Deng Sanfeng is not confident to complete it, then he can just get out.

If there is no way to implement this project within a year, Deng Sanfeng can also get out.

For Deng Sanfeng, this project brings opportunities with risks.

Beijing Goudong Headquarters.

After the launch of Variety Magic Equipment, Goudong's clothing sector also experienced a cliff-like decline. This situation is definitely not a good thing for Goudong. If nothing else, Goudong's stock price will plummet because of this incident.

Brother Dong rubbed his temples and picked up his cell phone to dial Cao Mang.

Dong Ge once met Cao Mang on June 6th. After the meeting, Cao Mang told Dong Ge his thoughts.

Cao Mang hopes that Dong Ge can spin off Goudong Logistics, and Deep Blue Technology can invest in it according to the current valuation. By then, Douyin and Goudong will use Goudong Logistics, but after the split, it can no longer be called Goudong Logistics. .

After Goudong Logistics is separated, the name must be changed to Jingdou Logistics.

After hearing Cao Mang's request, Brother Dong did not agree to Cao Mang's request on the spot. He said that he would have to come back and discuss with JD.com's shareholders before he could give an answer.

This negotiation lasted two months. Brother Dong was not in a hurry and Cao Mang was not in a hurry. Now in this situation, Brother Dong had to be anxious. Since Douyin Mall went online, Goudong's business has dropped a lot. Now The business of Goudong will further decline after the Variety Magic Equipment is launched.

According to the original plan, Goudong would start making profits next year, but after the launch of Douyin Mall, profits became far away.

If he splits Goudong Logistics out, even if Goudong goes bankrupt, it will not affect Goudong Logistics.

Spinning off Goudong Logistics and allowing Deep Blue Technology to invest in it is equivalent to buying insurance for himself.

"beep beep beep"

Cao Mang answered the phone after the phone rang three times.

"Brother Dong." Cao Mang greeted with a smile.

"Mr. Han, I agree with Deep Blue Technology's intention to invest in Goudong Logistics. If your company can come up with 120 billion soft sister coins, we can give up 49% of Goudong Logistics' shares." Dong Ge said.

"Brother Dong, the valuation of JD Logistics is less than 200 billion. You must know that the figure of 200 billion is just a valuation. Your actual investment is only 80 billion. Why do you want me to spend 120 billion to buy 49% of the shares? Maybe, I might as well use 120 billion to build my own logistics. Deep Blue can spend up to 60 billion to purchase these shares.

And this money can only be used for the construction of Goudong Logistics. "Cao Mang said.

"Mr. Han, it's inappropriate for you to just cut me in half with this knife. Even if I promise the shareholders, I won't be able to agree. 110 billion is the lowest price I can afford." Dong Ge said through gritted teeth.

The price we discussed two months ago was still 100 billion, but now you actually tell me that you can only give me 60 billion, and this money can only be used for Goudong Logistics. What is the difference between this and taking advantage of the situation?

Variety of magic clothes can cause Goudong to lose a lot of clothing business, and Goudong's logistics will also be affected to a certain extent.

"Brother Dong, two months ago I was willing to spend 100 billion to invest in Goudong Logistics, but now I can only spend 60 billion soft sister coins. If you can't accept this price, then our cooperation can only It’s over here." Cao Mang said.
