Becoming Rich with Daily Scavenging APP-Chapter 638: Luo Yonghao Takes Action

Chen Yiyang really understands online public opinion.

Big shots generally try to avoid arguing on the internet.

Moreover, even if there are some conflicts, usually it’s just exchanging a few words and seldom gets heated.

So who can get into arguments?

Usually, it’s those with significant online influence but have some controversial points themselves.

Such a person, when conflicting with others online, will first take the high ground and won’t easily let the other party go.

And the person clashing with them, seeing the other’s numerous problematic points, can easily make a mistake in judgment.

Thinking that once they start arguing, public opinion and the masses will firmly support them.

Little do they know that after years of experiencing online public opinion storms, netizens are now more concerned with issues than individuals.

Except for the brain-dead fans of celebrities, most netizens, when they find significant discrepancies in both sides’ narratives, will first look at evidence rather than past controversies.

So, if Chen Yiyang finds a regular person to argue with Jia Guolong, the boss of Xi Bei restaurant.

Probably after exchanging a few words, the matter won’t be pursued further.

"A person with controversial points but also considerable online influence?"

The assistants pondered and suggested, "How about Rayong?"

"Seems quite suitable."

Chen Yiyang thought for a moment and felt this person matched his criteria well.

Compared to other influential online figures, Rayong’s controversial points can’t even be called points, they should be called blotches.

But Rayong is quite lucky as his biggest controversies happened before the tightening of online public opinion control.

Since the higher-ups typically don’t investigate past matters, Rayong can still be active online.

Moreover, he’s adept at crafting a self-image online.

For instance, after his mobile company went bankrupt, he kept proclaiming he repaid 600 million, owing nobody.

In reality, he repaid only a bit over 100 million.

Moreover, it was his mobile company, not him personally, that owed over 600 million.

Actually, after the bankruptcy, the mobile company’s assets were sold for 300 million.

When he claimed to have repaid 600 million, he actually only paid off 400 million in debt.

Besides this 600 million, there were other debts of the mobile company that didn’t implicate him as the big boss.

This provoked some company bosses owed by his mobile company to use public opinion online to pressure him to pay the debt.

Not to mention, before the bankruptcy, this guy used his connections to secure investments from local governments, essentially getting them to help repay some debt before going bankrupt.

Thus, Chen Yiyang was confident that Jia Guolong, when faced with such a seemingly controversial figure, wouldn’t easily let the other party off.

Only then could they argue.

Contacting Rayong was quite easy.

Because Rayong, before doing business, worked as a teacher at the Old West, which Chen Yiyang acquired.

Through this connection, Chen Yiyang got Rayong’s number and invited him over for a meeting.

Rayong is doing quite well with his live-streaming sales business.

After Chen Yiyang invited him over, they talked about live-streaming sales, seeing if there were any potential collaborations.

Chen Yiyang is much younger than Rayong. Yet, in front of Chen Yiyang, Rayong didn’t dare act superior.

He’s a smart guy, already knows who he can or cannot offend.

Chen Yiyang falls into the category he absolutely can’t offend.

So, even though he didn’t know why Chen Yiyang invited him, Rayong still gladly attended the appointment and talked quite a while with Chen Yiyang.

As lunchtime approached.

Chen Yiyang glanced at the time and said to Rayong, "It’s meal time, shall we go out for a bite?"

"No need to overspend, I’ve been having wine parties every day and am almost getting high blood pressure." Rayong quickly signaled Chen Yiyang not to invite him to anything too extravagant.

So Chen Yiyang gladly followed Rayong’s suggestion, inviting him to a nearby Xi Bei restaurant for a healthy meal.

The two ordered seven or eight dishes.

In less than ten minutes, all the dishes were served one after another.

At this moment, Chen Yiyang meaningfully remarked, "Actually, I also opened a restaurant, where we use pre-cooked meals. But the serving time doesn’t seem to differ much from here."

"Nowadays, restaurants all claim they cook fresh, but actually use pre-cooked meals, otherwise how could they serve dishes so fast?" Rayong quickly said.

"That’s quite true." Chen Yiyang continued, "Actually it doesn’t matter whether the meals are pre-cooked or not.

After all, some people think freshly cooked is healthier, while others believe meals prepared in dust-free environments in factories or central kitchens are healthier.

But I think the most important thing is that customers should have the right to know.

For example, if you’re serving pre-cooked meals, you should specify on the menu that they’re pre-cooked.

After all, the service industry caters to customers.

It’s fine to use whatever method for cooking, but customers should be informed.

People in the service industry must have a service mindset.

"Mr. Chen, you’re absolutely right." What Chen Yiyang said made Rayong nod repeatedly.

After all, there was nothing wrong with his statements.

If you’re selling lamb, sell lamb; if you’re selling dog meat, sell dog meat. Respect each other.

But you can’t hang a sign for lamb while selling dog meat and expect respect. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

As they spoke, the two had almost finished eating.

Actually, the dishes at Xi Bei were so-so; neither delicious nor bad.

The only issue was that they were a bit pricey.

But charging such high prices and serving pre-cooked meals without marking them—

This issue couldn’t be ignored.

After finishing, Chen Yiyang and Rayong parted ways.

Throughout the process, Chen Yiyang never hinted for Rayong to speak out against Xi Bei.

But who is Rayong?

As an online persona, he deeply understands the importance of crafting an image at all times.

Having a meal with someone like Chen Yiyang, the youngest top figure in the business world, how could he not brag about it online?

But how to present this event required skill.

Just in time, Mr. Chen criticized Xi Bei’s pre-cooked meals.

Rayong decided to make a fuss over this.

You should know, one of Rayong’s earliest notable incidents involved the Siemens refrigerator.

At that time, he accused Siemens of selling refrigerators, priced over ten thousand, that frequently had frost issues. Since Siemens ignored him, Rayong publicly hammered three Siemens refrigerators.

This blew the matter out of proportion, forcing Siemens’ Huaxia District president to publicly apologize.

But not every move by Rayong proved successful.

Later, he criticized Pizza Hut for putting rotten lettuce on his pizza.

In response, Pizza Hut used official pleasantries like actively learning and promptly improving to brush things under the carpet, and compensated him with two discount coupons.

This thoroughly frustrated Rayong.
