Chapter 213 - Chapter 213: So Ruthless
As soon as they received the news, Xintao increased their discounts again. It was like they were selling everything. Even high-end brands that never gave discounts participated in the event. Although there was no discount, they would offer expensive free gifts.
Si Fan did not expect Yin Xun to be so ruthless. All she was doing was throwing m money.
In order to get investments, he had gone to the Fang Corporation several times. He could enter, and the staff of the Fang Corporation treated him well, but Fang Yao refused to see him personally.
He had used various methods to pique his fancy or to promise various requests, but none of them had worked.
Fang Yao’s attitude was very clear. This meant that he did not want to invest in him. The collaboration with Fang Yao could only be nullified. Moreover, Liu Ying and Xing Cheng both rejected his request. Now, it seemed that he had to think of another way.
None of the higher-ups present could come up with a useful solution. Now, they could only count on Si Fan to think of a solution by himself. Since the negotiations were fruitless, Si Fan left the meeting room filled with anger.
“Director Si! ”
As soon as she returned to the office, Cheng She rushed over in a panic.
Si Fan was startled. He turned around and glared at him fiercely.
Cheng She knew that he was too rash. He actually barged in without knocking. At this moment, Si Fan was staring daggers at him. He was so frightened that he forgot what he wanted to say.
“I, l, that…”
Seeing Cheng She like this, Si Fan was even more furious. He suddenly felt that there was no one capable in this company. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He asked angrily, “What exactly were you trying to say? What happened?”
Cheng She quickly adjusted himself and said, “Xintao has made a move again. Not only have they increased the discounts, but they’re also starting to give discounts to Zhenku phones. Moreover, it’s not just the Zhenku phones. According to reliable sources, Xiaoguo’s latest flagship phone is also about to go on the market. It’s also in a collaboration with Xintao. Zhang Yi said that the discounts this time will never appear again. There’s only one chance. The double discounts on the shopping website and the phones have attracted a large number of users!’
Now, Blue Fox’s discounts were like a drop in the ocean compared to Xintao’s. Who would not want to take advantage of the situation? Therefore, there was a serious loss of users on their side. Xintao’s recent registration and sales had almost increased in a vertical line.
“President Si, what should we do next?” Cheng She asked anxiously.
“How would I know? I’m thinking of a solution right now!” Si Fan said irritably.
Cheng She looked at Si Fan. He had an idea that he had wanted to tell Si Fan a long time ago, but he was just an assistant. He just had to do his part and leave the company’s matters to the management. However, it seemed that if he did not say it now, his life in the future would be very difficult.
Si Fan was not very kind to his employees. He would fire them if they did not do as he wished.
“President Si, I have an idea, but I’m not sure if I should say it…” Cheng She said weakly.
“Speak,” Si Fan said coldly and patiently.
Cheng She coughed, then mustered his courage and said, “Actually, I don’t think Blue Fox needs to go against Xintao because we’ve already established ourselves on the computer side. Now that we’ve switched to the mobile side, we’re just developing a second market. Currently, there are only Blue Fox and Xintao on the mobile side. The market is so big that it can accommodate two companies at the same time.”
If they continued to fight, it was very likely that both sides would suffer losses. In the end, only the users would benefit. However, he did not dare to say this because Si Fan’s expression was even gloomier than before.
In the past, he had asked a similar question. At that time, he felt that Xintao, a newly established company, would only be able to shine for a while and would not be able to go against Blue Fox in the long run. Now, it seemed that Xintao had a very powerful financial backing, which was why it could burn money to such an extent. Blue Fox’s current situation was very clear. Without investors, it was impossible to fight against Xintao.
“Hmph, Yin Xun is clearly targeting me. If I admit defeat now, I will only be suppressed by her more in the future. I don’t believe that a woman like her can have much strength. Let’s see who will have the last laugh,” Si Fan said with a dark expression.
“If the promotional event continues to drag on, we will only lose more users. How about this? We’ll start on the PC side first. As for the mobile side, we’ll start after our website is done. As for the discount on the event, we’ll increase that too. Hurry up and discuss with the marketing department how to use the smallest amount of funds to make a promotion that looks tempting..”
