Chapter 567 569: Ten Billion Cash Red Envelope
Mr. Qin: "Mr. Chang, are you going home for the New Year?"
Chang Jing paused before replying, "I don't plan to go back, there's quite a lot going on at the company."
Mr. Qin: "Then I'll leave the company matters to you, Mr. Chang."
Not long after, Han Meng had dinner ready. During the meal, Mr. Qin said to Han Meng, "Meng, have you packed everything? We'll be leaving tomorrow morning."
Han Meng nodded, "Everything's packed."
Zhao Yuying, curious, asked, "Xiao Hao, how are you getting back tomorrow? Flying or driving?"
Mr. Qin: "Planning to drive back. After the New Year, I'm not sure when we'll return. Driving is more convenient."
After dinner, Mr. Qin and Zhao Yuying headed back to their bedroom upstairs.
Tonight was the last night they would spend together this year; tomorrow they would part ways.
The next morning, after breakfast, Zhao Yuying packed up and headed to Jianghai Airport. Her assistant was also going back to her hometown with her today, and a few members of the Flying Leopard Guard Battalion were with Zhao Yuying as well.
After packing up, Mr. Qin, along with Han Meng and Qiao'er, got into the car, and the convoy headed straight for the highway.
The drive from Jianghai City to Jiangshan was over two thousand kilometers, taking more than a day. However, they needed to make a trip to the Yunyan Mountain Area in Nanchu Province en route, which could take even longer.
Five luxury cars sped along the highway. Mr. Qin adjusted Han Meng's seat, "Meng, it will take more than ten hours to get to Nanchu Province. If you and Qiao'er feel sleepy, take a nap."
Han Meng gently nodded. She and Qiao'er were initially excited, but after a few hours, they began to feel bored.
This morning around ten o'clock, an advertisement appeared online: "Grab tens of billions in cash giveaways this New Year on Xinghai Social Software."
Due to blockages by the three major giants online, most of the Internet channels were blocked, but enough people knew about it since Xinghai Social Software already had no shortage of users.
Besides the Internet, advertising spaces on major satellite channels, variety shows, etc., were all booked by Xinghai Company.
Then, ads for this were being displayed on billboards, bus stops, and large screens in major cities across the country.
The ad spend just over these few days was nearly nine figures, but the effect was significant, with Xinghai Social Software's download numbers increasing by over thirty million in one day, and the numbers were growing rapidly.
Wei Yan was abuzz: "OMG, check this out, Mr. Qin is giving away ten billion through Xinghai Social Software for the New Year."
This message spread instantly across Wei Yan, quickly becoming the hottest topic of discussion.
A ten billion cash giveaway was simply an unprecedented move.
Just a couple days ago, Tenglong Group and Amao Net Shopping had released a two billion New Year cash giveaway, and now Mr. Qin had launched a ten billion cash giveaway, showing incredibly deep pockets.
Even ordinary people could see that Xinghai Social was competing with Tenglong Group; it was a battle of finances.
Mr. Qin, being the wealthiest person in the world with over a trillion in assets, was not someone Tenglong Group could easily compete with in terms of finances.
Many companies on the internet were stunned by Mr. Qin's move—a ten billion cash giveaway? That was incredibly fierce.
How many internet users are there in the entire country? Not even a billion, and how many users does Xinghai Social have?
In the past, the numbers online simultaneously during the New Year on TT peaked at around four hundred million. With ten billion, even if it was divided equally, each person got several tens of yuan. Most importantly, the cash giveaways on Xinghai Social were not distributed equally but based on luck.
The largest cash giveaway was 999,999 yuan, with at least a hundred packets available, followed by 99,999 yuan giveaways, with a minimum of ten thousand packets.
To ensure fairness and justice, the information of those who won large prizes would be published on the official Xinghai Social website for everyone to monitor.
Million-dollar cash red envelopes, a hundred of them? A hundred thousand dollars in cash red envelopes, ten thousand of them?
Holy smokes, this is thrilling, super thrilling.
"Mr. Qin is awesome, bless me to win the big prize."
"With Mr. Qin's grand gestures, I've decided to download the Xinghai Social Software."
"I've rallied hundreds of people in my village to download the Xinghai Social Software, just waiting to win big and get rich."
"I think from now on the internet will belong to Xinghai Social, Tenglong Group only offered two billion, and who knows how much of that is just vouchers. Mr. Qin, on the other hand, is giving out cash red envelopes that can be withdrawn directly to a bank card."
When Ren Huachen from Tenglong Group heard this news, his face slightly fell. Ten billion, this guy really dared to give that away, wasn't he afraid of wasting it?
Although Xinghai Social Software had developed rapidly through Star Domain Network, Tenglong Group's active users hadn't decreased much since they still dominated the mobile payment market.
Ordinary people going to malls or supermarkets still chose to use Tenglong Group's payment software.
Besides mobile payment software, Tenglong Group controlled eighty percent of Xuan Country's gaming market, with currently popular PC and mobile games being produced by Tenglong Group's acquisitions.
Just like the popular game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds that Qin Hao had played, it was a game acquired by Tenglong Group.
Nevertheless, Ren Huachen felt a sense of crisis, the two billion red envelope event for the New Year was the most he could secure.
Tenglong Group wasn't ruled by him alone; there were many shareholders behind it, and they wouldn't agree to spend more unless he paid out of his own pocket.
When Lv Tian from Amao Net Shopping got this news, he too was astounded by the great courage displayed.
Qin Hao's success today was definitely not by chance.
The entire day, Wei Yan was completely dominated by Xinghai Social Software and the ten-billion-dollar cash red envelopes.
In the afternoon, all major satellite TV and online video ads were about Xinghai Social Software, Chang Jing had planned a lot to attract users.
Around nine o'clock in the evening.
Qin Hao's convoy arrived at the Jinxiu Hotel in the capital city of Nanchu Province.
At that time, Han Meng was awake, Qiao'er was sleeping, Qin Hao took out a coat and placed it over Qiao'er, then picked her up, "Meng, let's rest in the hotel tonight, and we'll go to your home tomorrow."
The group got out of the car and entered the hotel, the rooms already booked. They took the elevator up to their rooms, and Qin Hao carefully placed Qiao'er on the bed.
Then he said to Han Meng, "Meng, get some rest early. We'll continue on our journey tomorrow morning."
Her hometown was in the Yunyan Mountain Area, located in the southwestern part of Nanchu Province, and moving further southwest would lead into Shuinan Province.
The next morning at seven, after having breakfast, Qin Hao and his companions set off again, heading towards Nan'an City in Nanchu Province.
An hour later, they fully entered the territory of Nan'an City, looking out to see endless, boundless mountain ranges.
Qin Hao could no longer remember how many tunnels they had passed. Later, they took a narrow mountain road, with rock walls on one side and a deep cliff on the other, where a slight misstep could mean falling to an unrecoverable death.
Fortunately, there were almost no other cars, and by nine-thirty in the morning, the convoy arrived in Yunyan Town.
Yunyan Town was very rudimentary, the houses along the road were even more basic than those in the villages of other provinces, and the streets were almost deserted, occasionally only a few old people could be seen sitting motionlessly.
