Li Robin still paid for it.

Although Lin Yi predicted to him the end of this subsidy war, in fact, the daily subsidy expenditure is still growing, and it has long crossed the eight-figure threshold.

In this case, the $120 million that Wanli Travel received in the last round of financing is not so safe even if it is half of the bear factory.

Needless to say, Li Luobin also went to his other financier, Liu Jianni, to say hello.

Although Jianni Liu has never seen such a scene, she is at least very aware of the situation in front of her:

"No one wants to burn money, but if I have to, I can accept the reality, and giving up now is obviously equivalent to giving up all the work I have done."

"Once we stop subsidizing and the other two continue to subsidize, the time for Wanli Travel to lose users and withdraw from the market can be calculated in days."

"The shareholding structure of Wanli Travel is also very simple, except for us, there is only one Xiongchang, so Lin Yi, you can rest assured."

Liu Jianni gave him a reassurance: "As long as the bear factory continues to invest, I dare to follow." ”

At the current rate of burning money, it is impossible for new investors to come in, and Lin Yi has no time to go out to find it.

But with these two assurances, he can at least be sure that even if the situation does not develop as he expected, at least he will not face the crisis of food shortages anytime soon.

Then something interesting happened.

The day after Kuaidu announced that it would increase the subsidy to 11 yuan, Wanli Travel announced that it would be adjusted to a random amount between 12-20 yuan.

But it wasn't their family, almost at the same time, they all took a taxi and announced almost the same policy, which surprised outsiders.

This is of course, because Lin Yi is a copycat, and he copied the tactics of the goose factory.

But others don't know, and even a large number of unwitting employees within both companies have a question:

Was it negotiated?

Compared with this random amount of response, they are more concerned about whether the same method of traveling thousands of miles and taking a taxi as Dudu is a coincidence or premeditated?

Lin Yi didn't know what the outside world was speculating about this, but he saw an unexpected person because of this, and it was the other party who took the initiative.

The person who asked him out was Liu Chiping from the goose factory, but the person he met was not.

It's the legendary pony.

Brother Xiaoma's appearance was handsome when he was young, but now he is a little richer, and he can only be said to be decent compared to Li Robin.

Of course, comparing the appearance with Jack is a bit too bullying.

Brother Pony's accent is very interesting, typical of a southerner with a flat tongue. However, his attitude is quite approachable, and he doesn't take any big bosses.

"Lin Yi is, I asked Martin to make an appointment with you, and he had other arrangements to go abroad, so he didn't come here today."

Martin is Liu Chiping.

Brother Xiao Ma didn't introduce himself, after all, if he didn't even know him, he wouldn't need to mix in this industry.

The two got to know each other briefly, and then Brother Xiao Ma said what he meant:

"The amount of red envelopes before 12-20 yuan for Dudu taxis, in fact, is what I want. According to Goose Factory's many years of experience in game operation, adding a little uncertainty will increase the interest of users. ”

"But I found out that Wanli Travel actually came up with the same method, and it just so happened that I was talking about things in the capital today, so I asked Martin to come out of you and see how you came up with it."

Lin Yi knew that his cards were not enough, and Brother Ma made a special trip, and it was already very important to be able to meet him by the way.

"Martin mentioned you to me before, and said that Wanli Travel had come to us when it was just launched, but because the goose factory had already invested in all the taxis, he missed this fate."

"I guess it's not too late for us to know each other, you shouldn't mind talking to me, right?"

The goose factory is now the general backstage of Dudu Taxi, and in terms of the competitive relationship between Wanli Travel and Dudu Taxi, the two sides are obviously friends and enemies.

But if Lin Yi treats Brother Xiao Ma as an opponent, it is obviously a bit self-inflicted, and Li Robin is almost the same.

"Of course, in fact, I also think it is very coincidental, I didn't expect us to think about going together, in fact, this idea was also inspired by the red envelope of the goose factory."

Of course, Lin Yi would not say that he copied his idea.

Although it sounds very coincidental, Xiao Ma also accepted it, after all, it is also possible for a small probability event to occur, otherwise there is no other scientific explanation.

But he didn't just come today to verify this: "Lin Yi, I don't know what you think about the next development of the current subsidy war?" ”

"I didn't come today to see Cheng Wei, and I didn't tell him about meeting you, so you can talk freely."

Lin Yi quickly thought about it in his heart, the goose factory definitely didn't suddenly change his mind and wanted to switch to thousands of miles of travel, and Brother Xiao Ma definitely didn't come forward in person to talk about life and ideals with him, so what was his actual purpose?

Persuasion.

Thinking about this, Lin Yi also told him what he had said to Li Robin before:

"As the volume of the entire ride-hailing software gets closer and closer to the upper limit of the entire taxi industry, the significance of this taxi-hailing war will become less and less."

"We don't want to continue to burn money endlessly, and I understand the position of the goose factory on this matter, but in the short term, it may depend on the attitude of Kuaidu."

Lin Yi knew that his appearance had complicated the situation in the ride-hailing market, because the interests of the three must be more difficult to balance than the two.

But at least now, if you have Brother Xiaoma in person, you can first coordinate the position between Wanli Travel and Dudu Taxi.

Especially when there has just been a thing like two families coincidentally choosing a random subsidy model of 12-20 yuan, it is a very suitable opportunity, because the outside world has their interpretation of reconciliation.

That's why Little Pony is here.

After understanding Lin Yi's attitude, he didn't say anything more, after all, his identity was not the CEO of Dudu.

However, Brother Xiao Ma threw out another topic: "Lin Yi, in fact, many of your opinions on the taxi industry are very similar to Will, have you considered joining forces?" ”

Lin Yi was not surprised that he had this proposal, and did not answer directly, but talked about the negotiation between the two before Wanli Travel was launched, Cheng Wei found himself through Wang Xing after learning about it.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, the implication was that he refused, Brother Xiao Ma is not a person who is difficult for a strong man, and if he insists on his identity, it will inevitably seem that he will "bully the small" to Lin Yi.

After talking about the taxi in Dudu, the conversation did not end immediately, and the rest of the topic could be a little more relaxed.

According to Lin Yi's description just now, Brother Xiao Ma asked a question: "Are you very familiar with Wang Xing, what do you think of the current group buying market?" ”
