While millions of people were grabbing coupons and placing orders on Taobao, Xie Chenglong, holding a cigarette in his mouth, came to the east room where Wei Lan was detained.
The first thing he did after entering the house was to turn on the pull switch on the wall and light up the only twenty-watt incandescent lamp above Azure's head.
Then, Xie Chenglong pulled a bench and placed it in front of Wei Lan. He reached out and took off Wei Lan's blindfold, and then sat down in front of Wei Lan.
Weilan's eyes had not seen light for a long time. Even the incandescent lamp with only 20 watts made her unable to see clearly for a long time. She could only see the outline of a man sitting in front of her. After a while, her vision recovered. This Only then did he finally see what the other person looked like.
Wei Lan recognized the other person at a glance. He turned out to be the Jetta driver who drove into her.
Song Zhilei did not dare to see Wei Lan because he was afraid that after Wei Lan knew his identity, he would be reluctant to tell Li Mu the truth. After all, he wanted to kidnap her and make Li Mu pay. Wei Lan must communicate with Li Mu. Say these three words "Song Zhilei" and Song Zhilei is finished.
However, Song Zhilei was afraid, but Xie Chenglong was not.
First of all, Wei Lan does not know herself and cannot quickly disclose anything specifically related to her to Li Mu on the phone; secondly, no matter whether things succeed or not, Wei Lan must die, and the hole for her burial has been dug. Well, now that she was at the foot of the mountain less than three kilometers away from here, I was no longer afraid of meeting her.
Wei Lan stared at Xie Chenglong nervously at this time. Xie Chenglong also looked at her with squinted eyes, took a puff of cigarette and said to Wei Lan: "I will take the towel out of your mouth now. You must be obedient. I asked What, what do you answer, what do I talk about, what do you say, if you dare to yell, I will be rude to you, just nod if you understand."
Wei Lan nodded hurriedly.
Xie Chenglong then sighed with satisfaction, reached out and pulled the towel out of Wei Lan's mouth.
As soon as Wei Lan could speak, she hurriedly said to him: "How much money do you want? Tell me the amount and I will find a way to satisfy you. I just ask you to let me go after you get the money."
Xie Chenglong smiled slightly and said: "We don't want much, just 30 million yuan in cash, plus 10 million US dollars in cash. I know that you are worth at least 800 million yuan, and this amount of money is nothing to you. Just treat it like a waste of money to eliminate disaster. Once we get the money, we will let you go immediately. In the future, you will gain wisdom and spend some money to hire a few bodyguards to prevent people like us from attacking you in the future. "
Xie Chenglong said it sincerely, as if a friend was having a heart-to-heart chat with her. If Wei Lan had not analyzed some details that the mastermind behind this time must be Song Zhilei, she would even believe what Xie Chenglong said at this time. talk.
However, although she didn't believe it at all, Wei Lan still showed great trust and nodded repeatedly: "I will definitely cooperate with you to get this money. It is true that Li Mu owes me 800 million in acquisition money, although it is three It won’t be paid until later in the year, but I still have a bit of a personal relationship with him. If we encounter such a big thing, it won’t hurt him to let him take out the money first.”
Xie Chenglong nodded and said: "Li Mu has a great influence. We don't want him to call the police and make the matter bigger. You should also know that if the police are not involved, we will get the money and let you go, and everyone will be safe." , but if the police are involved, it will be a felony if we are caught. In that case, we will not be able to get better, and naturally we will not make it easy for you. If we kill you and then run away, our run will be smoother, right?"
Wei Lan nodded repeatedly, her face full of fear, and her eyes even turned red, with tears swirling in them. In the blink of an eye, they turned into two lines of clear tears, flowing down her cheeks.
Wei Lan was indeed scared, but she shed tears to confuse the other party. She deliberately thought of her parents in her mind. When she thought that her parents were far away across the ocean and they had no way of knowing that she had been kidnapped on the other side of the world, tears rolled down her face.
Seeing Wei Lan crying in fear, Xie Chenglong relaxed his guard against her a little. Thinking that his persuasion had an effect, he continued: "I'll call Li Mu later. Before I let you speak, you Don't talk nonsense. Just say whatever I ask you to say. If you have one more word or one less word, I won't kill you, but I will cut off one of your fingers. If there are not enough fingers, just say it. Cut off your toes, even though I seem to be a talkative person, I must fulfill my words!"
Xie Chenglong was experienced and called Li Mu to ask for money. Wei Lan's role was to make Li Mu confirm that she had indeed been kidnapped, and then don't call the police and prepare the money quickly, so he had to warn Wei Lan first not to talk nonsense. , when the time comes, it is enough for her to say whatever she asks her to say, otherwise if she reveals any information, it may ruin the plan.
Wei Lan saw that Xie Chenglong's expression seemed ordinary, but there was an extremely calm and fierce spirit in his bones. He intuitively felt that this was an extremely difficult person to deal with. At that moment, his heart shuddered, and he became a little more concerned about his own experience. pessimistic.
Xie Chenglong took out Wei Lan's mobile phone from his pocket. This small flip phone had its back panel battery removed.
After installing the cell phone battery in front of Wei Lan, Xie Chenglong asked her, "Do you have Li Mu's number in your cell phone?"
Wei Lan nodded: "Yes."
"Okay, I'll call Li Mu now!"
…
“Five minutes after the event was officially launched, the transaction volume exceeded 50 million!”
When the operations team fed back the real-time data, the entire Taobao network was filled with joy!
This event is not a flash sale, and most of the special items are fully stocked. However, after the event was launched, a considerable number of users immediately placed orders quickly.
At the same time, all 22,000 coupons have been snatched up quickly. In the notification bar at the top of any page on the website, the user ID and the category of coupons are scrolled.
At the same time, don’t forget to remind other users that the next round of coupon grabbing activities will start on time at one o’clock in the morning!
Li Mu also didn't expect that the transaction volume would reach 50 million within the first five minutes of going online, which gave him greater confidence.
Afterwards, Li Mu immediately checked the data analysis chart. Of the 50 million turnover, 70% came from clothing.
The discounts on clothing are very strong, and some special-priced styles are indeed not like daily necessities department stores, which often have hundreds of thousands or even millions of items in stock. Some brands put out a small amount of super-special price clothing to attract attention, so the first to trigger panic buying is the clothing. This is a batch of special-priced clothing with a limited stock.
Li Mu knows very well that the next big thing, in addition to users' demand for clothing, shoes and hats, is also the user's "collective order" thinking on daily necessities and other commodities. Most people who buy grain, oil and food will collect the 199 before placing an order. The same goes for single items and daily necessities. These items do not need to be snapped up, but they need to be entangled and weighed. Basically, the vast majority of consumers will engage in the behavior of "buying more than they need" because there is a subconscious concept supporting them: anyway You'll need it later, why not buy more while it's cheap
With sufficient data to support it, everyone firmly believes that this Taobao promotion has huge potential, and the real impact will only come in the second half.
Taobao is full of joy, but Letao in Hangzhou is still silent at this moment.
In the first five minutes of the event promotion, the transaction volume was less than 100,000.
Looking at the transaction volume of just over 80,000 yuan, every Letao employee felt despair.
To put it bluntly, how to measure the strength of an e-commerce website? There is only one most critical data, and that is transaction volume.
It started off so badly, and the next 23 hours and 55 minutes left little hope.
Boss Ma had a gloomy look on his face. He had been dreaming about the arrival of this moment at midnight on September 29. The transaction volume of the platform in his imagination would be like a rocket at this moment, soaring up and down.
However, ever since Li Mu started sniping at Le Tao, his dreams have been shattered little by little. Now, he has basically woken up from his dream. He can only watch the scattered dreams on the ground and experience the hardships and cruelty of reality.
At this time, Boss Ma just wanted to know Taobao's data. How much did they sell in the same five minutes
At this time, YY popped up a prompt, and a late-night news was pushed to all online users in China: Taobao's 929 promotion, the transaction volume exceeded 50 million within five minutes of going online!
When Boss Ma saw this title, his mind exploded with a buzz, his eyes seemed to lose light all of a sudden, and his vision went black for a while.
He knew Li Mu's routine, and this data was definitely not watery, because Li Mu was not the kind of person who liked to brag about his performance.
In the same five minutes, Li Mu's Taobao sold 50 million, and his Letao sold more than 80,000. This 600-fold difference was like 600 loud slaps slapped on his face in one go. .
Boss Ma was filled with hatred and anger. He expected to fail, but he did not expect to lose so miserably.
Li Mu is indeed very good at playing games, and he has many more marketing methods than he does. Just the full discount coupon scheme is countless times better than his own 20% discount on the entire store. The biggest gimmick is Li Mu's large amount of full discount coupons. Minus coupons, 198 minus 199, this gimmick is simply a chicken blood injected into consumers' bodies!
At the same time, with the same promotion, most consumers will focus their energy on a major platform. Taobao has done a good job of attracting attention before. I must have had that huge crushing advantage in front of Li Mu. It's just like an ant who overestimates his own abilities. It's simply ridiculous.
Boss Ma knows very well that tomorrow he will become the laughing stock of the entire Internet. Compared with himself, it is not shameful for others such as Tengxun’s Ma to be defeated by Li Mu, because in the beginning, Tengxun’s Ma was always copied by Li Mu, who had a stronger product. At the end of the day, most people in the industry looked at him with a bit of pity, and felt that it was better to be better than him, but there was a huge difference between him and Boss Teng Xunma.
For Li Mu and Taobao, he is the one who overestimates his capabilities and takes the initiative to provoke! He was covetous of Li Mu's 2C retail business layout, and did not work hard to run a good B2B business. He caused trouble for Li Mu from the beginning. He first acquired several express delivery companies and wanted to take the opportunity to invest in Taobao. After being rejected by Li Mu, he became angry and deliberately He let his own logistics company put Li Mu's brand in trouble, and was later publicly slapped in the face by Li Mu in the media, which made him infamous for a time. As a result, he endured the humiliation and launched Letao, and was about to counterattack through a big promotion, but he didn't Thinking of it, Li Mu's main force fought a beautiful sniper battle...
Boss Ma can almost imagine that tomorrow morning, he will become the clown who is laughed at by the entire Internet industry. His dreams, his ideas, his thinking, and his ambitions will all become a laughing stock...
