Prodigal System in the Flourishing City
Chapter 1029 - 1027: It’s a Matter of Luck!
CHAPTER 1029: CHAPTER 1027: IT’S A MATTER OF LUCK!
Wen Cun was stunned. He watched as the QQ users multiplied within a short period, his eyes wide open!
He finally, finally realized how terrifying Lu Xiaobu was!
Lu Xiaobu seemed carefree, yet his ability to integrate and fully utilize resources was downright frightening!
How much did he spend to promote KK?!
Billions!
But Lu Xiaobu?!
Just by simply giving out red envelopes, the number of users exploded.
Moreover, the crucial point is, these red envelopes weren’t at a loss, they might even be profitable.
After all, shopping vouchers have an expiry date, if you want to use them, you have to shop, right?
Once you shop, Lu Xiaobu makes his money back!
"Damn it!" Wen Cun paced back and forth in the office, back and forth!
His previous pride and ease had completely vanished.
Although QQ’s user base couldn’t compare to his KK, he already knew the potential threat!
If your family is on QQ, would you not use QQ?!
Over time, his KK would be left behind by QQ!
No, changes must be made!
"Announce it, integrate Weibo followers with the KK friend system."
Wen Cun gritted his teeth and said.
He was initially reluctant to do so.
After all, this would blur the lines between Weibo and KK, which would be detrimental to his future development.
But now, he couldn’t think so far ahead!
"Yes!" The secretary went to execute it!
...
One must say, this move by Wen Cun was quite clever.
This move of importing friends slowed down the rapid expansion speed of QQ!
"Hahaha, finally! I was wondering when we could import friends before!"
"Yeah! I wanted to add them as friends but had to ask one by one, which was too time-consuming! Now it’s easier, just follow and you can import directly, it’s awesome!"
"Amazing, amazing, this really saved us a lot of trouble!"
"..."
With the new feature, KK’s user base started exploding again.
After all, let’s be honest, in this day and age, people still prefer chatting with friends for online conversations, chatting with family always feels a bit awkward.
Thus, this user import strategy indeed put some pressure on QQ.
But it was merely a slight pressure!
"What a cheap trick." Lu Xiaobu sneered, "Sister Lan, enable the Nearby People and Shake features, don’t they like chatting with less familiar people? Come on! Let me play something harder!"
So, in the second new version, the Nearby People and Shake features were launched.
Then, people went crazy.
"Whoa! Hahaha! New feature?! Shake?! Nearby People?!"
"Come on, come on, try it, try it! Shake, shake, may God bless me with shaking to a girl!"
"No way! I actually shook to a girl! Let me show you a photo, she’s beautiful!"
"Damn it! Why is your luck so good?! Why am I only shaking into greasy men?!"
"Jealous, oh so jealous! Bless me, no, bless me Young Master Bu, I want a girl too!"
"You idiots, how can Shake be more fun than Nearby People?! You can choose directly!"
"Hey... how did I forget about this! Yeah, just use Nearby People! Haha, there are indeed many girls!"
"This one is nice, that one too! It’s awesome! It feels like I’m choosing concubines like an Emperor!"
"I still think Shake is better, it’s so exciting, so mysterious!"
"I agree! I’m also in the Shake camp!"
"I’m in the Nearby camp! Shakers are all about strange things!"
"Nearby people are just hungry ghosts in disguise!"
"..."
Just like that, Shake and Nearby People opened a new world for these users!
They even split into two factions, the Shake camp and the Nearby camp.
The Shake camp pursued that thrill.
After all, you never know if the person on the other side is male or female, beautiful or ugly, or even if they’re human!
Tearing off that veil layer by layer gives an adrenaline rush akin to gambling!
However, the Nearby camp was more practical.
After all, people nearby are close in distance, so naturally... you know!
The two camps clashed, debating endlessly.
But no matter how they fought, it was beneficial for QQ!
The user count shot up again.
Last time it attracted female users through the shopping site, this time it attracted male users with Shake and Nearby People.
Yin and Yang in harmony, the way of the world!
Alright, that’s nonsense, as long as the numbers are rising, it’s all good!
So, that old fellow Wen Cun was furious again!
"Damn it! Why is this happening?! Why?!" Wen Cun felt a tightness in his chest!
He was in the social media industry, so he knew how difficult it was to develop a new feature.
The difficulties in development alone weren’t worth mentioning, everyone knew them.
Apart from development, there was also the necessity of cooperation between mobile systems and functionalities, like Shake, if it couldn’t be shaken, then...
Tsk! Wait a minute!
Son of a bitch! Lu Xiaobu owned a mobile company!
Damn it, got tricked again!
He could implement whatever feature he wanted, couldn’t he?!
Still, he couldn’t just sit and wait, he had to think of new strategies.
"Go, have someone study these two features, and then find a way to integrate them into our KK!" Wen Cun promptly arranged.
In any case, this had to be done.
As for other strategies, he’d have to think them over.
Damn it, how does Lu Xiaobu’s brain work? One idea after another?!
Why can’t I think of them?!
...
The Lin Family.
"Click, click, click!"
Lin Feng squatted on the floor, placing a wine jar on the ground, holding a cigar in his left hand, and constantly shaking his phone in his right hand.
Yep, Shake.
He was also in the Shake camp!
"Damn it all, why are they all greasy men?! Did Lu Xiaobu set this up against me?!" Lin Feng was so angry he almost smashed his phone.
He had shaken it one hundred and thirty times already, each time was the same greasy man!
"Young Master, what are you..." Housekeeper Jia chuckled wryly.
"Ignore me, I’m shaking for girls." Lin Feng waved him off.
Then, a light bulb went off in his head: "Housekeeper Jia, you register a QQ account too, and try Shake."
"Uh... alright!" Housekeeper Jia chuckled, complying with the task.
Register, log in, Shake, all in one go.
"Click!"
"What did you get?!" Lin Feng put his phone down and immediately leaned over to check.
Then, his face turned green!
Damn it! Even Housekeeper Jia shook to a girl!
It had to be Lu Xiaobu setting up his account!
Otherwise, how could his luck be worse than this half-old Housekeeper Jia?!
He was so angry he wanted to call Lu Xiaobu to scold him.
At this moment, as Housekeeper Jia was packing Lin Feng’s things, he touched the phone Lin Feng left on the ground.
"Click!"
Shake!
Hey, it’s a girl!
Lin Feng’s face turned green once again!
God damn it!
What the hell does this mean?!
Are you explicitly telling me it’s a luck issue?!
