Chapter 305: Mall Released
The day after the charity dinner.
Just as Li Dong expected, the names of Li Dong and Yuan Fang really appeared in the major media.
Spending tens of millions of dollars to bid for a pair of graffiti made by a nine-year-old child is more noticeable than Li Dong's subsequent donation of more than 10 million in cash.
Not only Jiangbei's media, but also many domestic media reported on Li Dong's move.
Of course, the major media also gave mixed reviews.
Some media questioned with a headline: "Is such a charity a show of love or a hype?"
"Should the company make a show of the people in the disaster area?"
"We should say 'no' loudly to the hype of love!"
...
Naturally, there are derogations and praises, and there are also media who defend Yuanfang. Whether it is hype or not, at least they have paid for it in real money.
A private company established less than two years ago has invested tens of millions in charitable causes. No matter whether the company is suspected of hype or not, the kindness of Yuanfang and the head of Yuanfang is unquestionable.
Moreover, this charitable donation is not an isolated case. Last year, Yuanfang also carried out large-scale charity activities.
Li Dong, the head of Yuanfang, is still very young, and he is also the successor of philanthropy in the future. Some media shouldn't be so demanding on the company!
For a while, the major media launched a heated debate on this issue!
...
No matter what the media reported, Li Dong was at ease.
Anyway, as long as his goal is achieved, no matter whether it is praise or criticism, this time Yuanfang has indeed become popular again.
And the more noisy the media is, the better. Li Dong hopes that they will have scolding battles in the media every day.
At least judging from the current mainstream opinions in society, most people in the society still praise Yuanfang more than criticize it.
Just like that Chen Moumou who forced charity, although the society repeatedly questioned the other party's charity purpose, ordinary people still generally approve of him.
What's more, Li Dong didn't go too far as the other party did. He just took advantage of the opportunity and bought a painting. It would be difficult for others to splash dirty water on Li Dong's head.
...
Universal Building.
Li Dong received a call from Qin Yuhan.
Some media in the capital also reported on this hype and charitable refutation.
Qin Yuhan was a little excited when he called, and he couldn't wait to answer the phone: "Li Dong, I admire you so much!"
Li Dong laughed dumbly and said, "What's the matter today?"
Qin Yuhan gasped: "Li Dong, do you know! When we were in class just now, our professor from Beijing University deliberately used you as an example, saying that you are a real modern entrepreneur, not just a businessman!"
"Our professor also said that you have the noble qualities of an entrepreneur in the new era! You integrate ability and character, and you have a high sense of social responsibility!"
Qin Yuhan repeated almost word for word what the professor said in class.
She was so happy and excited today.
When she saw some media smearing Li Dong before, Qin Yuhan was so angry that she wished she could come to the door and scold those writers severely.
But what she didn't expect was that because of the hype in the media these two days, even the professors of Peking University paid attention to Li Dong.
When the professor talked about corporate culture in class today, he mentioned Li Dong somehow.
For Li Dong, a grassroots businessman in his early twenties, the professors of Peking University have many words of praise, and even feel a little regret that Li Dong did not come from Peking University.
At that moment, Qin Yuhan wanted to stand up and tell everyone that the Li Dong you mentioned is my boyfriend!
But she couldn't help it after all, even so, Qin Yuhan was so excited that she didn't finish listening to this class.
After class, Qin Yuhan couldn't wait to call Li Dong.
In Qin Yuhan's eyes, to be praised by the professors of Peking University, this honor is even worth tens of millions more than Li Dong's.
A young businessman who is thousands of miles away can make the professors of Beijing University speak up in class. How many people in the whole country can do it?
That professor is not Li Dong's trustee, nor is he an expert who is keen on fame and fortune. He is a respected scholar-type literati.
What he said in class today will be spread in the future. I am afraid that some media in the society will soon help Li Dong to clean up, because this professor has a high status in the education field.
Qin Yuhan was so happy that she lost her composure when she was so happy.
On the contrary, Li Dong didn't take it too seriously. He didn't care about the gossip in the society, and it didn't make any sense whether it was whitewashed or not.
As for being praised by a literati and scholar, that is actually the case.
Peking University professors have limited influence, and may be more famous in the academic world, but the speech of a Peking University professor in the mainstream media of society is not to say that it is insignificant, at least not too many people pay attention.
When Qin Yuhan calmed down, Li Dong smiled and said: "Then you should stand up and tell everyone that I am your boyfriend, so that there will be fewer flies around you."
Qin Yuhan sneered and said, "I'm not, so many people, how embarrassing."
"What's so embarrassing? Am I shameless?"
"Damn, that's not what I meant."
Hearing her blame, Li Dong couldn't help laughing, and asked after a while: "How is the dessert house?"
"Fortunately, two days ago I fired two employees who talked on the phone during working hours. Now the discipline is much better, and everyone is more focused on work."
Li Dong said disapprovingly: "It should have been done a long time ago. If it is according to my intention, it will be fully opened and pulled down. It is only you who can endure until now."
Qin Yuhan sighed slightly: "After all, I'm an old man who has been coming here since the opening. If there is no other way, I don't want to do this either."
It has been almost half a year since her dessert house opened, and she has not fired anyone except for the one who left by herself.
Li Dong said this before, but Qin Yuhan couldn't bear it.
But no matter how good the patience is, it can't stand the test of time. From talking small words at the beginning, to asking for leave at every turn, and now not asking for leave at all, one phone call can last for several hours during working hours.
Qin Yuhan's endurance has also reached its limit, she is not afraid of losing money, but people treat her like a fool, which chills her heart.
Qin Yuhan seldom got angry, but that day he couldn't help it once.
Five or six tables of guests were still waiting, but two waiters actually hid in the background and made calls, and no one came forward to entertain them for seven or eight minutes.
If it wasn't for Qin Yuhan who happened to come over after class to take a look, I really wouldn't know the usual situation in the store.
For a moment, Qin Yuhan was really ready to listen to Li Dong and fire them all. After all, if this kind of thing hadn't been covered by each other, others wouldn't have such courage.
But in the end, the woman softened her heart a little, and only fired the two people who were on duty that day.
After Qin Yuhan finished speaking, Li Dong shook his head slightly, but he had said this more than once, and Li Dong didn't bother to say it again.
After chatting with Qin Yuhan a few more times, Liu Qi knocked on the door and walked in.
Seeing Li Dong on the phone, Liu Qi didn't make a sound.
Seeing this, Li Dong said to Qin Yuhan on the phone: "I have something to do, I'll talk to you in the evening. By the way, I may not have time to visit you in the capital during this time. You will come back when you are on vacation, or I will let Lao Zhou go to the capital pick you up."
Qin Yuhan said empathetically, "Don't bother Brother Zhou, I'll come back by plane after the holiday, and you can just reimburse me for the travel expenses."
Li Dong suddenly smiled and said, "Okay, don't talk about travel expenses, I will buy a plane when I have money, and I will pick you up."
Qin Yuhan covered her mouth and smiled lightly, happy in her heart, but said angrily, "I know how to brag."
"Who's bragging? If it weren't for the lack of money recently, I can buy a private jet now!"
"Okay, okay, you have money, you are capable, that's all right. Go about your business, remember to rest more, and don't forget to eat..."
Amidst Qin Yuhan's nagging, Li Dong hung up the phone.
Seeing that Li Dong hung up the phone, Liu Qi smiled and said, "Mr. Li, are you talking on the phone with your girlfriend again?"
Li Dong scolded: "Speak too much, who is talking on the phone?"
Liu Qi smiled without revealing it, coughed lightly and regained her composure and said, "Director Shen called just now and asked you to go downstairs to have a look."
As soon as he heard that it was Shen Qian's call, Li Dong quickly got up, picked up his coat and put it on, and asked, "Did you say something?"
Liu Qi said: "It should be that the mall system has been made. A few days ago, I heard that people from the technical team were doing tests. Director Shen is looking for people to try it out."
Li Dong was refreshed when he heard the words, and finally built the platform!
It has been the end of March since Liu Hong and the others started working in February.
One and a half months, it is reasonable to say that it would not take such a long time to build a platform, but the trial version made several times was overturned by Li Dong.
As a reborn person, Li Dong dare not say how knowledgeable he is.
But when it comes to user experience, Li Dong dares to say that there are few people in the world who are more suitable for evaluation than himself.
The previous two experimental versions of the mall were killed by Li Dong, and Shen Qian was going crazy. This is the third overthrow and redo. Since Shen Qian dared to let herself pass, she should have a lot of confidence in passing.
Li Dong put on his coat, walked out and said, "Go and inform Mr. Sun and Mr. Wang, let's go and have a look together."
"Mr. Sun has already passed away, and Mr. Wang is not in the company."
"Forget it, we'll go there too."
...
I hurried to the floor where the e-commerce department was located.
In the office area, a group of people gathered around the test machine, and Liu Hong loudly ordered the people next to him to record something from time to time.
Almost no one saw Li Dong's arrival, and finally found Li Dong at the outermost place Chen Feng.
Seeing Li Dong arrived, Chen Feng hurriedly said loudly: "Mr. Li is here, everyone make way!"
The crowd parted with a clatter, and Li Dong saw Sun Tao sitting by the computer and clicking the mouse.
Hearing Li Dong's arrival, Sun Tao got up and smiled, "Mr. Li, try it, I think the effect is very good."
Shen Qian on the side also said proudly: "Of course it's good. We worked overtime for this version 1.3. We didn't rest for more than half a month, and this is the final finalization."
"We made a lot of revisions based on Mr. Li's previous two opinions, and some procedures were completely overturned and redone. If Mr. Li is not satisfied with this, then I dare say that there are not many malls in China that can meet Mr. Li's requirements."
Seeing her embarrassing expression, Li Dong squinted his eyes and smiled: "Don't talk big, I'll know after I try. Don't talk too much, or it won't look good if you slap yourself in the mouth later."
Shen Qian's complexion turned dark.
This is not impossible. The first two times they were also full of confidence, thinking that even if the mall they made was not as good as Taobao, it would not be much worse.
But every time Li Dong tried it, he picked out a lot of faults, but they couldn't refute it.
Because Li Dong didn't find fault on purpose, and it's impossible to find fault on purpose. There are indeed many things they didn't notice.
Now facing Li Dong's criticism, they really can't believe that Li Dong can be satisfied.
