Chapter 271: Inside and Out

An article "Lenovo is not home" instantly became popular on the Internet.

Not only does it contain bloody and tears accusations of Lenovo of betrayal, but it also contains many insider information, such as Lenovo's failure to diversify and suffer heavy losses, the secret of attempting to acquire ibm, and the reveal of the truth behind this major layoff, which is very eye-catching.

For ordinary netizens, they are simply following the trend and watching the fun, but for the people in the game, it is a torment.

When the post became popular, Lenovo did not pay enough attention. It didn't take long for them to panic. Who would have expected that the Internet storm would have a substantial impact on the company.

For Lenovo Group, this period is a turbulent time.

Although the board of directors has approved the merger and acquisition plan for the ibm and pc business, the progress has not been smooth.

Recently, due to the stimulus of layoffs, Lenovo's stock has plummeted in Hong Kong stocks one after another, falling below HK$3. If this momentum continues, according to the mixed payment plan formulated by Goldman Sachs, the price paid by the group in the upcoming merger case may soar significantly.

When "Lenovo is Not Home" ignited the Internet, Lenovo's senior executives finally couldn't sit still. However, today's companies are still very shallow in dealing with online public opinion. The most direct way is to delete posts, but deleting posts is not as easy as they think.

Recently, public opinion has been paying attention to the development of the situation, so there must be a legitimate reason to delete posts.

In January, the Tianya server downtime incident, the "human photo" was suspended in Tianya Community for more than a month, but no regulatory authorities came forward to deal with it, let alone this incident.

Public opinion is almost one-sided, and they are all accusing Lenovo.

Everyone took it for granted that the poster was an internal employee of Lenovo. Only when he was innocently laid off would he complain online. Lenovo looked for a circle of functional departments, but none of them were willing to come forward.

It is naturally not possible to let public opinion ferment. In the end, Lenovo's senior management issued an order to calm down the matter no matter what. If it really doesn't work, they will pay the website to delete the post.

As the saying goes, it is easy to do things with money. Lenovo quickly approached Qingshan Network. Although there have been post stolen posts online, the focus is still on Qingshan Forum.

When Liu Chang led the two Lenovo people to come over, Chen Qiaoshan was not very surprised.

"Mr. Chen, these two are from Lenovo Public Relations Department, and I want to talk to you." Liu Chang said in an official tone. Although everyone is accustomed to it, she naturally won't show any difference in serious occasions.

"You two have something to ask me for trouble?" Chen Qiaoshan thought it was a fool. If something big happened, there would be a ghost if he didn't ask for it.

"Hello, Mr. Chen, my surname is Zheng, and I am from Lenovo Public Relations Department. This is my business card." The first person who spoke was a woman. After that, she handed over a business card.

Chen Qiaoshan was a little strange. The voice of the woman in front of him sounded a little familiar. He didn't think much about it and took the business card and took a look.

Zheng Wenying, the public relations director of Lenovo Group's public relations department, is an international position. Chen Qiaoshan looked at it for a moment and led the two into the financial office with Liu Chang. He felt that he was a little wrong and should have a reception room separated.

Liu Chang quickly brought two glasses of water. Now everything in the studio is simple. He is young and no one drinks tea. Naturally, the level is not as high-end.

"Then Mr. Chen, you guys talk first." After that, Liu Chang retreated.

The office hasn't started yet, but it's lively outside. As soon as Liu Chang went out, he was stopped by Yao Yong, "Hey, what's the situation inside? Lenovo has come here?"

"Don't you all see it?" Liu Chang's tone was a little worried.

Chen Hua also came over, "Are they here to make trouble?"

Yao Yong said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? Didn't Dashan analyze it for us? He didn't spread rumors. Besides, if you don't say it, I won't say it, others can't see our backend data. Who knows who posted the post!"

The few people around couldn't help but look at each other. Before they knew it, Yao Yong became a supporter of Chen Qiaoshan.

In the office, Chen Qiaoshan took the lead in breaking the deadlock. He asked directly about the other party’s purpose: “Director Zheng, don’t know what’s going on with me?”

Zheng Wenying couldn't help but secretly complain that the group had been pushed to the forefront by the post from Qingshan Forum, and you were still pretending to be ignorant of it.

"Manager Chen, today I mainly want to discuss with you whether the post on the forum can be deleted?"

"Which post?" Chen Qiaoshan simply pretended to the end and made a mistake with the visitor.

Zheng Wenying almost got angry, but today she came here to ask for help, so she had to patiently say: "It's the post about our Lenovo Group."

""Lenovo isn't Home"?"

"Yes, that's it. I hope you can understand our difficulties and delete the relevant posts."

Chen Qiaoshan did not pretend to be crazy anymore. He asked: "Is there anything wrong with this post? Is the content incorrect or is it suspected of deliberately slandering your Lenovo Group. If this content is involved, the post can be deleted immediately. But I hope you can provide evidence and I can give the user an explanation!"

Zheng Wenying was stunned. She knew immediately that she encountered a tough guy today, and it was obviously perfunctory. If there was really conclusive evidence, would it be necessary to be so polite?

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment. If the content was inaccurate, it was really not considered a matter of fact. Zheng Wenying was a little strange. The content of the post looked as if it was conclusive. It was obviously the work of Lenovo insiders, which was really difficult to deal with.

Thinking of his boss’s private explanation before leaving, Zheng Wenying said, “Manager Chen, this is true. The content of this post is partially inaccurate, and our group does not want to make things worse. As long as the forum can delete the post, we can consider buying some advertising spaces in Qingshan Forum.”

Chen Qiaoshan laughed in his heart and started to make moves.

There is no advertising space at all in the forum. It is still a development period and is not ready to carry out commercial operations in the short term. The other party has almost nakedly bought it.

Chen Qiaoshan did not hesitate too much and directly refused: "Sorry, our Qingshan Network has no advertising space for sale for the time being. Thank you for your attention."

Zheng Wenying almost vomited blood, and the assistant beside her also changed her face. She was very helpless. Although the person in front of her looked young, she was obviously a slippery old frivolous guy.

She tried and said, "That's right, our group is willing to pay 100,000 yuan to buy you an advertising space, you can consider it."

Nowadays, forums are cheaper for non-banner advertisements on portals, basically between three and five points, which has to be popular.

One hundred thousand yuan, at least two million clicks is required. On a general forum, there may not be two million visits a year, let alone clicks.

Zheng Wenying originally planned to pay 50,000 yuan, but Chen Qiaoshan's attitude was firm and she doubled the price. However, it was obvious that these efforts were in vain.

Chen Qiaoshan couldn't help but beat Xiao Jiujiu, saying that he was not surprised was fake, and that 100,000 yuan was not a decimal. Although he invested more than one million in the studio, he could earn 100,000 yuan by just deleting the post. It was impossible to say that he was not moved.

He couldn't help but secretly speculate in his heart that Tianya had done something to expose his shortcomings for a while back then, and there were even rumors that the public relations department of the listed company was specifically staring at Tianya, for fear of negative scandals, and he could respond immediately.

Chen Qiaoshan thought about it for a while and it wasn't that he was jealous of money and didn't take the 100,000 yuan seriously. However, this time it was mainly to promote Qingshan Network, not to fight with Lenovo. After thinking about it, he immediately had an idea.

"Director Zheng, that's right. Our forum is just a platform for communication. As long as the user does not violate the law, we have no right to delete posts."

Zheng Wenying secretly complained that this man has been too greedy, and it is not too late to bargain here. He is still bargaining here, which is a bit ignorant of the current affairs.

Of course, she thought about it and still had to do things, so she had to pinch her nose and said, "I personally respect your company's ethics, but I can continue to discuss advertising fees."

Chen Qiaoshan was a little ashamed of this. He didn't want to continue to go around the circle, so he simply pointed out his point of view: "That's right. If you don't have conclusive evidence, the post will definitely not be deleted."

As soon as these words were said, Zheng Wenying got stuck. How could she talk about this? She was also surprised and wondered. Is there really someone who doesn’t like money? When she first came in, she looked at it. The office conditions of Qingshan Forum were quite simple, and the place was quite spacious, but there were not many people, which was not much different from a bag company.

Zheng Wenying had no choice but to say, "I hope you can think carefully about it."

Chen Qiaoshan glanced at the other party and then said, "Director Zheng, I may have a way to eliminate the impact of this post!"

Zheng Wenying was stunned. She subconsciously thought the other party had compromised, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Tell me, let me see."

Chen Qiaoshan saw through the other party's thoughts, but he didn't care. He said to himself: "If you want to eliminate the impact and calm the matter down as soon as possible, there is no need to delete the post at all. As long as you come forward and write another comforting post, things may turn around. Of course, it is best to be a person with weight."

Zheng Wenying felt helpless. What a bad idea? Do you think things are not messy enough?

The matter has since fallen into a deadlock, and neither of them can convince each other and ended up in an unhappy manner.

Chen Qiaoshan didn't care much. He clearly remembered that in the end, Yang Yuanqing couldn't handle it even if he came forward. In the end, he relied on Liu Laoshuai to come forward and wrote a response article to the post, and the matter finally settled down.
