99 The Deadly Tactics of Phone Manufacturers

Tencent Corporation’s server was controlled and its entire suite of products recommended the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

The App, which was originally losing a little popularity on search engines, instantly went from eighth place to third place on the trending list.

“The awesome Divine Dragon Optimization App had actually received full endorsement from both Tencent and Baidu. This is unprecedented in the history of the internet.”

“Who is this Divine Dragon Optimization App? Two companies are promoting it at the same time. There is obviously something extraordinary about it.”

!!

The discussions on the internet were heated.

The number of downloads and installations of the software was growing very fast. Within an hour after Tencent Corporation promoted the Divine Dragon Optimization App on its platform, the number of installations of the App had exceeded 10 million, and this number continued to grow at a terrifying speed.

The mobile phone manufacturers who had been keeping a close watch on the Divine Dragon Optimization App were shocked when they saw the sharp increase in the number of installations.

If everyone installed the Divine Dragon Optimization App on their phones, the performance of the phones would double. The phones that were originally slow and laggy would now be functioning smoothly, and they could even play games on their phones. The new phones they had in the pipeline this year wouldn’t be sold at all.

Heyme Corporation had produced five million new phones, and the manufacturing cost was 7.5 billion yuan.

OPPO had produced four million new phones, and the manufacturing cost was 6 billion yuan.

The other large manufacturers had also produced a portion of their phones, and the manufacturing cost was around five billion yuan.

If these phones couldn’t be sold, they would suffer terrible losses.

This would be a huge blow, even for the large manufacturers.

What was even more terrifying was that due to the Divine Dragon Optimization App, old cell phones from five years ago could now be used. This meant that it was not only the sales of entry-level cell phones that was affected, but also the mid-range models and flagship models!

Android phones originally launched new models once every two years, but after installing the Divine Dragon Optimization App, a phone would work well even after five years. Other than users who misplaced their cell phones, users would almost never change phones.

Judging from this trend, because of the Divine Dragon Optimization App, the domestic sales of cell phones would fall to 10%, or less than 10% of the current volume, within three years.

Three years later, the annual cell phone sales volume might only be about 50% of the previous year’s.

This was a fatal blow to any mobile phone manufacturer.

At least half of the mobile phone manufacturers would go bankrupt.

Because of this analysis, Heyme, OPPO and Huawei were extremely concerned.

When they saw that Tencent Corporation and Baidu Corporation were promoting Divine Dragon Optimization App with all their might, they became even more distressed.

A secret meeting was held.

The survival of the entire industry was at stake. As such, although these mobile phone manufacturers were competitors, their interests were aligned now. They had to stop the Divine Dragon Optimization App!

If they fail to stop the spread of the Divine Dragon Optimization App, they would be in danger.

An hour after the meeting.

A plan to exterminate the Divine Dragon Software Company, the Divine Dragon Optimization App and Li Chengqian was formulated and immediately put into action.

It was indeed true that the Divine Dragon Optimization App was very powerful, but the App was run on phones.

As for the mobile phone manufacturers, as long as the Divine Dragon Optimization App was not installed on their phones, they would have absolute control over the phones they produced.

A system update notification was received on the mobile phones produced by these major manufacturers.

This included the phones that were released five years ago, the phones that hadn’t had a system update for three years.

These phones also received a system update.

The system update this time was very small, only 100 Mb. The update was compulsory for all phones.

After the system update was completed, a notification was sent to the phone.

“The Divine Dragon Optimization App will alter the system files. There are risks of cell phone data theft and hardware damage. In order to mitigate such risks, we are updating the system to block the installation of the Divine Dragon Optimization App.”

At the same time, a large number of trolls appeared on the internet and slandered the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

“After installing the Divine Dragon Optimization App, I began to receive scam calls. Just now, the 35,000 yuan in my salary card was taken away by a scammer.”

“I’m shocked. After installing the Divine Dragon Optimization App, my boyfriend’s chat history with me was actually uploaded online.”

“Terrifying. After installing the Divine Dragon Optimization App, the private photos on my phone actually appeared online.”

Overwhelming negative reviews on the Divine Dragon Optimization App appeared on the internet.

Every post was designed to strike fear into people, in areas they were most concerned about.

Fraud! Money!

Chat history, private photos.

These were the most sensitive issues for users.

Any one of these issues would strike fear in a user’s heart.

Moreover, it was an all-rounded negative review.

“Oh my god, I almost installed the Divine Dragon Optimization App! Luckily I didn’t! Such a close shave…!”

“I was going to give it a try, forget it!”

“To be honest, after the installation of the Divine Dragon Optimization App, my phone has indeed become very smooth, but… I’ll uninstall it immediately.”

“All the major phone companies have updated their systems and released a notice to users today. They all state that there is a huge risk in the Divine Dragon Optimization App.”

Under the influence of the army of trolls, a wave of panic spread on the internet. The users who were originally planning to install the Divine Dragon Optimization App had a bad impression of the App now, so they naturally wouldn’t install it.

As for the users who didn’t believe what was being said and proceeded to download and install the App, they were prompted by their phones that the App has been banned.

Many people who had already installed the Divine Dragon Optimization App began to waver as public opinion became louder and louder.

Although their phones did work well after the App was installed, it was not worth the risk of being scammed online and having private data leaked.

Safety was the most important consideration.

...

Finally, many users began to uninstall the Divine Dragon Optimization App from their phones.

At this moment, an even more explosive piece of news spread on the internet.

Tencent Corporation and Baidu Corporation were both hacked by the Divine Dragon Software Company. Their platforms were promoting the Divine Dragon Optimization App because of the virus implanted by Li Chengqian, the boss of the Divine Dragon Software Company.

This message was sent by Wu Botao, the Vice President of Strategy at Alibaba Corporation. At the same time, he also tagged He Hongyan, CEO of Baidu Corporation and Li Jinteng, CEO of Tencent Corporation. There was still an hour before this news was released. Logically speaking, He Hongyan and Li Jinteng should have come out to refute the rumors.

However, He Hongyan and Li Jinteng did not step out to clarify the matter.

This phenomenon made everyone feel that Wu Botao’s message was true.

Tencent Corporation and Baidu Corporation were being held hostage by the virus released by the Divine Dragon Software Company. That was why they were so aggressively promoting the Divine Dragon Optimization App on their platforms.

Initially, some users felt that the news on the internet was fake news created by mobile phone manufacturers to suppress the Divine Dragon Optimization App.

However, after seeing Wu Botao’s message, most people wavered.

Divine Dragon Software Company actually created a virus and used it to control the servers of other companies to promote their products.

A company that could do such a thing would very likely resort to stealing its users’ data.

...

“Quick, uninstall the Divine Dragon Optimization App!”

“Oh my god, even the two internet giants have been hacked by the Divine Dragon Optimization App. This company is not a regular company.”

“Uninstall the Divine Dragon Optimization App quickly. Then, install the updates sent by the mobile phone manufacturers so as to secure the system. This way, we can eliminate the impact of the Divine Dragon Optimization App. It can also prevent the App from secretly installing on your phones.”

Meanwhile, over at the Divine Dragon Software Company, Zhao Na panicked as she watched the number of installations of the Divine Dragon Optimization App reach 10 million.

Her heart raced as she recalled her bet with Li Chengqian.

Half an hour later, the number of installations hit 12 million.

Then, the number of installations stopped increasing and decreased at an extremely terrifying speed.

In just 10 minutes, the number of installations dropped to eight million.

After an hour, the number of installations dropped to four million. The speed of the decline slowed down. Zhao Na heaved a sigh of relief and thought that the number of installations would not decrease further.

Then the number of installations decreased sharply again. In less than 10 minutes, it fell to 1.5 million!

Just then, Zhao Na’s phone rang.

Zhao Na turned on her phone and saw the message and link sent by her assistant, Xiaoli.

“Director Zhao, our Divine Dragon Optimization App has been banned by various mobile phone manufacturers.”

“There are a lot of negative reports about our App on the internet.”

“Wu Botao of Alibaba Corporation said that the Divine Dragon Software Company had hacked into Tencent Corporation and Baidu Corporation, and gained control of their servers. They said that we are a virus company.”

“Our company and our products are being ridiculed on the internet! Everyone is cursing and swearing at us.”

Zhao Na broke out in cold sweat as she opened the link. She stood up solemnly and rushed toward Li Chengqian’s office.

“If we don’t handle this matter well, our Divine Dragon Software Company will be completely destroyed!”

“These people’s goal is not only to destroy the Divine Dragon Optimization App, but also to destroy the Divine Dragon Software Company. They also want to destroy Li Chengqian!”
