The city's number one tycoon

Chapter 240

"I also robbed a thousand yuan!" Lin Shike exclaimed.

Ma Yunteng's family members all opened the red envelopes, and unsurprisingly, each of them grabbed 1,000 yuan! Although 1,000 yuan is nothing to them, you have to understand that this is a Tencent red envelope.

Penguins generally don't send out red envelopes, and even if they did, maybe only one in a thousand people would be able to get one.

The current situation is that they all grabbed a 1,000 yuan red envelope. Has Tencent suddenly had a change of heart?

Like them, more than 500 million WeChat users across the country were stunned by the red envelopes they received!

Everyone who tried to grab one received a thousand yuan, and their WeChat Moments were immediately flooded with screenshots of these thousand-yuan red envelopes.

"Holy crap! Is this real?"

"How is that possible?"

"The one upstairs is definitely photoshopped."

I don't believe it.

"Try it if you don't believe me."

...

Those who hadn't received a red envelope yet were incredibly envious after seeing their friends' pictures, and immediately opened the Penguin Red Envelope.

"This... I can't believe it's true. It really is a thousand yuan!"

"Wait, this doesn't seem to be a red envelope from Tencent?"

"Huh? What the heck is this Calorie Group?"

Gradually, people discovered that there was a line of text written under the opened red envelopes: "Calorie Group wishes everyone a Happy New Year!"

In an instant, the word "calorie" once again swept across the headlines, and even "calorie internet cafe," "banana phone," and "TR technology" instantly topped the trending search lists.

At this moment, nobody cares about the Alipay Five Blessings collection anymore. Based on past experience, if Alipay can let you win ten yuan, that's already a very happy thing!

But Calorie Group is different. You could say that if you grab it, it's hard not to make money!

Moreover, if you manage to snag one, the minimum price is 1,000 yuan!

Those who frequently use WeChat Wallet know that there are approximately 500 million active users on WeChat Wallet. Based on the current situation, anyone who grabbed a red envelope has won at least 1,000 yuan. This means that Calorie Group directly distributed more than 300 billion yuan in red envelopes this time!

Jack Ma's Alipay has issued 500 million yuan.

Calorie Group has given out over 300 billion yuan in red envelopes! What's the connection between all this? In other words, the amount of red envelopes Calorie Group has given out is enough for Alipay to give out for over 600 years!

At that moment, Alipay CEO Jack Ma was celebrating the Chinese New Year with his family when he suddenly received a call from a senior executive of the company. After hanging up, Ma opened his WeChat Wallet in disbelief and, unsurprisingly, snagged 1,000 yuan!

The next moment, Jack Ma felt a chill in his heart and secretly ran to the toilet to grieve!

"Boss, should we retaliate?" A senior executive from Alipay called.

"What do you mean, 'retaliate'? Didn't you see that the lowest amount in their red envelopes was a thousand yuan? Tell me how I'm supposed to retaliate?" Jack Ma smiled wryly, then hung up the phone in frustration!

Alipay's New Year's greeting red envelope campaign is actually a marketing tactic. To make this marketing tactic successful, Jack Ma invested 500 million yuan in it!

However, unexpectedly, a calorie appeared out of nowhere!

His 500 million was powerless against the other party's more than 300 billion. The news was filled with the word "calorie," while his Alipay, Five Blessings, and other related words were completely overshadowed!

When Jack Ma received his first call from senior management, he considered retaliating against Calorie Group.

But after he bumped into the wall, he immediately became much more sober!

Alipay actually has 300 billion yuan in effective liquid funds at its disposal, so what gives it the right to retaliate?

Even if they could come up with 300 billion, would they really dare to challenge calories?

If they come up with another 300 billion, how can we possibly cope?

"My God! This is a real tycoon! Compared to him, I'm nothing!" Jack Ma lamented, muttering to himself with a bitter smile.

To be honest, not only Jack Ma, but even Wang Jianshu from China was shocked by the Calorie Group. He earnestly told his son, "Son, don't be so high-profile in the future. China is truly a land of hidden talents! Remember! You must do everything you can to get closer to the Calorie Group. Even if you can't get closer, you must not offend them! Remember, remember!"

Wang Congming was happily playing with his beloved dog when he suddenly heard his father's stern reprimand. His stubborn nature made him very indignant: "When people get old, they easily become afraid of this and that..."

What's so great about the Calorie Group? My IG won the championship this year! I'll teach them a lesson they won another day!

Meanwhile, at a construction site in Zhengzhou, China.

Huang Ying is a very hardworking and honest construction worker. He should have been resting during the Spring Festival, but the project manager forced him to work here. In order to earn a monthly salary of five thousand yuan, he had no choice but to swallow his anger.

Thinking about how everyone else was reuniting with their families, Huang Ying felt extremely distressed: "Damn it, this lousy construction site is so deserted, it's hard to even see a woman! When I'm rich, I'm going to throw my resignation letter in that project manager's face!"

"Sigh... but when will I ever have money?" Thinking of this, Huang Ying angrily lit a cigarette, even though he didn't know how to smoke.

"Cough cough cough!" After just one puff, I felt as if my throat was being roasted by fire, and I couldn't help but cough violently.

"Can't you even do this job? You pretended to have a fever the day before yesterday, a cold yesterday, and a cough today. If you can't do it, go look at other construction sites. I can't tolerate a big shot like you here!" The project manager walked out of the office and scolded.

"Ugh! This is so damn annoying! Poor people can't even show their temper!" Huang Ying shook her head in frustration. "Forget it, let's see how other people are spending their New Year!"

Huang Ying took out her phone and was surprised to see that everyone on her WeChat Moments was posting about the 1,000 yuan Tencent red envelopes.

"Wow, that's awesome! I'll give it a try!" Huang Ying quickly opened her WeChat Wallet, found the New Year's greetings red envelope section, and tapped it with lightning speed.

"Calorie Group wishes you a Happy New Year! Congratulations on successfully grabbing a 10 million yuan red envelope!"
