You Were Told to Design Software, But You Created Tiktok?!

250: Section 250”What’s wrong?”

Li Wenqiu swallowed.

”Meituan didn’t change the previously deleted copy; it just added one more sentence to it.”

Hearing this, everyone hadn’t yet had time to ponder its meaning.

Li Wenqiu’s next sentence rang out.

”The new sentence Meituan added is:”

”Meituan’s daily active user count has exceeded sixteen million!”

As soon as he said this,

the room instantly fell silent.

The smiles on everyone else’s faces also froze.

”What did you say?”

Xiao Ma asked urgently.

Li Wenqiu took a deep breath, his expression extremely serious.

”Meituan’s registered user count is indeed twenty million, and it is indeed the current champion in daily active users among group buying software.”

”Because...”

Li Wenqiu glanced at his phone, then continued after confirming again.

”Meituan’s daily active user count has already exceeded sixteen million!”

Seeing Li Wenqiu confirm again, many people in the room changed their expressions.

Everyone quickly took out their phones to check.

They had previously thought that Meituan’s copy was written incorrectly, mistaking the registered user count for the daily active user count, which led to a misunderstanding, causing Meituan to believe it was the daily active champion.

But now it seems...

Meituan’s copy wasn’t wrong at all; the registered count was correct, and being the daily active champion was also correct; they just forgot to disclose the daily active user count!

After confirming this news, Xiao Ma’s expression also became considerably uglier.

”How is that possible?”

”For most other group buying software, only one-third of registered users can be converted into daily active users.”

”But this Meituan...”

”It can convert twenty million registered users into fifteen million daily active users!”

”Why is this ratio so exaggerated?”

Xiao Ma couldn’t help but swallow as he spoke, because this number was indeed a bit too exaggerated.

At this moment, no one else in the room responded to Xiao Ma’s words, as they were equally shocked by this number.

”Is it because there were no competitors in the early stage, or is the user stickiness in the Lower-Tier Market really that high?”

”Sixteen million.”

Ma Liuyun’s voice was trembling slightly.

”Meituan’s promotion is far from comparable to our Penguin Group, yet its daily active users can exceed ours. This is too exaggerated.”

”If Meituan had done extensive large-scale promotion like us before, wouldn’t its current daily active users exceed thirty or forty million?”

By the end, Ma Liuyun’s voice was trembling.

Xiao Ma, standing beside him, directly slapped the table and stood up.

”Whether it’s because Meituan had no competitors in the early stage, or because the user stickiness in the Lower-Tier Market is high,”

”we must reclaim the Lower-Tier Market from Meituan!”

Xiao Ma looked at the others.

”Don’t hold back; invest all budgets directly and launch a full-scale assault on the Lower-Tier Market!”

”I refuse to believe that after Penguin Group Buying also enters the Lower-Tier Market, Meituan’s user conversion rate and daily active user count can remain this high!”

Originally, before this,

Xiao Ma had planned to gradually implement the layout in third and fourth-tier cities.

But looking at Meituan’s current achievements, he finally couldn’t sit still.

So,

shortly after this meeting,

all other group buying software could feel it:

Penguin Group Buying had begun to fully exert its strength in the Lower-Tier Market!

Chapter 177: Penguin Invests All Budget, Wu Jin’s Invitation!

Meanwhile, on the other side,

at the same time the Penguin Group saw Meituan’s latest news internally,

outside,

many internet users who had been watching Meituan’s misfortune also saw Meituan’s second ~ published information.

When this information appeared,

only a little over ten minutes had passed since Meituan’s negative trending topic appeared.

Therefore, the popularity of this information also exploded, similarly rushing onto the trending topics.

And the height of this new trending topic was even higher than the negative trending topic that Penguin Group had paid for earlier.

This brand new trending topic

was a response to the previous negative trending topic, and it also consisted of just a short sentence:

”Meituan’s daily active users are indeed the first among group buying software!”

Two trending topics with clear contrast could attract a large amount of popularity and attention.

Originally, before this,

if Meituan had simply published the revised information, it wouldn’t have rushed onto the trending topics so quickly, let alone ranked among the top.

But because,

Penguin Group had paid for the popularity of the previous negative trending topic, Meituan’s information also gained significant popularity.

This was like...

Penguin Group had inadvertently created a trending topic for Meituan for free.

And after seeing the specific information,

the number of comments under Meituan’s Weibo post instantly exploded.

”Holy cow, is this for real?”

”Turns out I was careless; twenty million registered users actually have sixteen million daily active users. This is indeed the daily active champion among group buying software, no doubt.”

”I’m dying of laughter, where are those people who didn’t believe Meituan just now? I knew the copy couldn’t possibly mistake registered users for daily active users; something else must have been wrong.”

”Meituan isn’t doing this on purpose, is it? First, intentionally omit a sentence, then explain after enough popularity, so the popularity directly explodes.”

”As expected, it has to be Meituan, using half the registered user count of Penguin Group Buying to create a daily active user count that exceeds Penguin Group Buying by one million.”

”Thousand Group Battle, I still support you!”

At this moment,

countless internet users finally understood just how much potential Meituan had, being able to possess such high user stickiness.

Therefore,

after this trending topic came out,

many internet users became curious about Meituan.

For a time,

Meituan’s download numbers in first and second-tier cities continuously soared.

Originally, before this,

because the group buying market in first and second-tier cities was extremely competitive, many software continuously launched various activities, and Penguin Group Buying was no exception; only Meituan had not made too many moves in first and second-tier cities.

This led to the situation where,

although Meituan’s reputation was very strong in the Lower-Tier Market, its users in first and second-tier cities were far less than other software, because other software had spent money to attract users.

However,
