446、To plant trees
Soon, Fantuan Payment announced that it would raise 6 billion yuan, the largest investment from the social security fund, accounting for 10% of the shares.
At the same time, Luo Xiu announced in a high-profile manner that he claimed to have set aside 10 billion yuan for offline QR code payment subsidies.
This one claimed to have 10 billion, just like Cao Cao's army of one million during the Battle of Red Cliff.
In fact, only he himself knows how much money he has taken out.
However, as soon as these two news came out, it caused a lot of criticism.
First of all, there are doubts about the use of social security funds.
Ordinary people do not know that social security funds will also be invested, especially for investment in a private enterprise.
Moreover, at this time, the public had low trust in the officialdom and conspiracy theories were everywhere.
They would think at the first time that these 3 billion were gone and they were greedy.
"Why do we use the social security we pay to invest in a private enterprise?"
"Who allowed this and got our consent?"
"When our generation grows old, will there be still money left in the social security fund?"
"That's why they want to do something [10 billion subsidy]. If they lose money, they will say they will be posted to consumers."
"I have thought about the retreat."
...
The controversy became louder and louder, and finally the chairman had to come out and explain that it was normal to invest social security funds and earn more pension money.
Pension funds from all over the world will do this.
In addition to investing in domestic enterprises, we will also make some overseas investments.
For example, Japan's pension funds invested 9.6 billion yuan in Evergrande Real Estate.
Moreover, since its establishment, my country's pension funds have maintained an annual return of more than 8%, which is relatively excellent among global fund returns.
These explanations seem useless, and the people still don't believe them.
It was not until the other companies came out that they were willing to acquire the Fantuan Payment shares held by the social security fund at a double price at any time that everyone believed that this investment would not be able to lose for the time being.
When Guan Shiyu saw these comments, she said to Luo Xiu a little unhappy: "Look at you, letting others take advantage, and they don't think about you."
Luo Xiu smiled and said, "This is just a moment. Now the reputation is good, and the future may become worse. Now the reputation is bad, and the future may be very good. As long as we have a clear conscience in doing things."
"Anyway, you always have your reasons, so I don't want to care about you."
Guan Shiyu is actually a man who feels heartbroken and can't bear to see him being scolded by too many people.
Luo Xiu didn't think so much. While everyone's doubts were low, he quickly asked a group of navy troops to post and direct everyone's attention to the [10 billion subsidy] event.
"It's true that I've received a red envelope by scanning the code. I received 11 yuan."
"It seems that the amount you scanned out at the beginning was very large, and the more you scanned the red envelope, the smaller the amount."
"New users scanned out a lot of money. Now I have helped my parents download the rice ball payment app and help them get red envelopes every day."
"No matter whether he loses his investment or not, at least the money is spent on ordinary people, and he will get it from his own."
"We try to pay with rice balls. The more money this company makes, the more money we have in our social security."
Luo Xiu also intentionally or unintentionally bound the rice ball payment to ordinary people.
It seems that rice balls make money, that is, social security funds make money, and eventually turn into pension money for ordinary people.
When this concept becomes deeply rooted in people's hearts, the people will not agree if anyone can't pay the rice ball.
Moreover, when multiple payment methods are available, many people also tend to choose a company related to themselves.
...
Scan the QR code to receive shopping red envelopes directly, which is really expensive.
Although it is claimed to be 10 billion, it is really hard to stop the money from burning.
When the company saw the money burned, it was very heartbroken and advised the boss to burn less.
They have never seen such a money-burning person.
But Luo Xiu ignored it and continued to follow the original plan.
If the opponent also takes action, there will be no head when it gets burned.
Maybe the other party couldn't stand the burn, but no one dared to stop. After all, whoever stopped first would burn the money in vain.
Now, while the opponent's payment code has not yet been spread out, there is no way to follow up and compete, it is the most cost-effective to burn money.
Although the money is burned quickly, the effect is really good.
With this activity of 10 billion subsidies, the number of users of Rice Tuan Pay hit a new high, accounting for more than 80% of the market share.
Alipay, which was just starting to do ground promotion, can be said to be seriously hindered.
Ordinary merchants do not want to easily add a similar payment method when they already have rice ball payment.
Yu'ebao was stolen by the rice ball payment and turned into a granary. The user's money has already been stored in the granary, so ordinary users naturally get used to using rice ball payment.
This can be said to be the increase and decrease of oneself.
Coupled with the first-mover advantage of Fantuan Payment, it took the path Alipay was going to take first, and the result was naturally self-evident.
In this battle with Alipay, Fantuan Payment temporarily repelled its competitors, stabilized its market share and maintained its high ground.
The high ground is temporarily held, but the enemy will be resurrected in no time and will come again.
Luo Xiu saw that the money in the account was not much and could not continue to burn it.
At this time, the user still did not completely abandon cash, and the wallet was still kept with cash.
Without red envelope subsidies, it may not take long before consumers will use cash to pay back.
At this time, other means must be used to keep users in the habit of using rice balls to pay, and the money will not be burned so quickly.
Luo Xiu thought of activities such as planting trees and building Hope Primary School.
Each time a user pays with rice balls, he will get points.
After you get the amount of points, you can plant a tree in the desert.
Or use points to donate a nutritious lunch to students of Hope Primary School.
Or gather points from all the students in the school to help build a Hope Primary School in the mountainous area.
Every public welfare action will be issued by Fantuan Payment.
On its friend rankings, you can see who has the most charity certificates.
Most people have a seed of kindness deep in their hearts.
In the case where payments can be made in cash or mobile phones, if the latter can make a little contribution to society, most people are willing to use the latter.
Besides, as long as there is a list, everyone has the desire to compete for the list.
Even if there is no use of the steps ranking every day, many people want to see their names at the top.
After this event came out, although there was no substantial red envelope subsidy, everyone's enthusiasm for using mobile phone payment did not drop much.
Sometimes the money has been handed over to the cashier, but I remembered that I was almost collecting points from a tree, so I took the money back and changed it to mobile phone payment.
More importantly, this method is not that expensive than sending red envelopes directly.
