After spending the night with Ma Wenxuan, Li Rui went to the Information Industry Association to visit Tan Song early the next morning.

During this meeting, Li Rui mainly reported on the results of his trip to Europe. Tan Song was particularly concerned about the prospects and progress of AMD's acquisition. This matter is of great importance and will have a profound and significant impact on the entire country's chip industry.

This chat lasted for more than an hour, and it was an unprecedented first time for Tan Song, who was always busy with things to do.

After the chat, Li Rui went to Pan Chunxiao and Guan Donglin's offices to sit around, mixed a few boxes of good tea, and returned home with a full load.

In the afternoon, Li Rui went to the Mining Association to meet with Chairman Tian and report on Simandou's situation.

Since the mining rights are still in the hands of the Hebrew company bsgr, there has been little progress in the Simandou project. However, Li Rui has secretly reached an agreement with Axelrod and is always keeping an eye on bsgr’s boss Benny Steinmetz.

If there is any movement, as long as he enters the target area, he will take action.

Chairman Tian also gave Li Rui more than an hour. This degree of favor was definitely unique to Scorpion in the circle of bosses of mining companies across the country.

After meeting with Chairman Tian, ​​Li Ruicai rushed to Xinlang's headquarters, signed a statement to withdraw from the board of directors, and had a heart-to-heart talk with Lao Cao, and said goodbye.

Next time we meet, it's hard to tell whether the two sides are friends or enemies.

…

Outside Xinlang Building, Li Rui and Lu Yong stood quietly on the roadside.

It is now past six o'clock in the evening, and people are constantly coming out of the building. Many of them are Internet white-collar workers and programmers working in Xinlang. Some people are walking directly towards the subway station, while others are standing on the roadside waving to hail a taxi.

It was the evening rush hour at this time, and most of the taxis passing by were carrying customers. It was not easy to hail a taxi. It often took a long time to hail a taxi.

There were also people standing on the roadside playing with their mobile phones. Not long after, taxis came to pick them up.

Li Rui observed it for a while, then opened the Xingrui Travel app on his phone, and a discount message popped up on the interface.

[Thank you for using Xingrui Travel, we will give you a 50% off taxi coupon! 】

Li Rui tapped his finger and a 50% discount coupon was deposited into his account. As long as he uses the ride-hailing service before 24:00 today, the fare can be reduced by half.

If you can still bind Credit Suisse payment and bank card according to the instructions of Xingrui Travel, you will get five more 50% off taxi coupons. The discount rate is very suitable for white-collar workers who live in the huge city of Yanzhou and have to worry about traffic problems every day.

For them, it's quite attractive.

Li Rui clicked [Ride-hailing Service], chose to get on the bus at Xinlang Building, and entered [Yanzhou West Railway Station] as the destination. The estimated route and cost appeared on the screen, which was about the same as the cost of a normal taxi. Using a taxi

Vouchers can save money on your next dinner.

After Li Rui clicked [Request a Car], he only waited for more than ten seconds before a vehicle responded.

In less than two minutes, a taxi stopped on the side of the road. Li Rui checked the license plate number and walked over. Through the glass, he noticed that the driver was busy fiddling with his mobile phone, so he knocked on the window.

The driver waved his hand and said, "No, no, no. Someone has booked a ride."

Li Rui pointed at himself and said, "I made an appointment."

The driver breathed a sigh of relief: "You made the appointment... I was just going to ask where you were. Get in the car!"

"Welcome to Xing...

You can hear the slightly lower pitch, and you shouldn't do this too many times.

Then the driver hung the phone on the holder and hesitated not knowing where to click.

Li Rui saw this and asked: "Master, you don't seem to be good at using taxi-hailing software?"

The driver said a little depressed: "I'm almost fifty, how can I play with this thing? I've only been pretending for three days, and you've only taken five orders in total. I still haven't figured out how to do it!"

"Let me help you." Li Rui simply switched to the front passenger seat and ordered [Passengers are on board] for him.

[Passengers, please fasten your seat belts. The destination is Yanzhou West Railway Station. Driver, please follow the navigation. Thank you!] A pleasant female voice came from the mobile phone.

The driver started the car and merged into the traffic flow. Then he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Why do you think this mobile phone is so powerful now? You can direct the car to pick up passengers from such a distance..."

Li Rui smiled and said: "It will become more and more intelligent in the future. Maybe one day, the car will be able to drive on the road without a driver."

"Then our taxi drivers will lose their jobs?" the driver asked worriedly.

Li Rui smiled and said: "Don't worry about that, it will only happen ten or twenty years later. Master, since you don't understand smart phones, why do you use Xingrui to travel?"

The driver lamented: "It's not necessary... Last year someone advised me to install one, but I said I didn't know how to use a smartphone. As a result, all the drivers around me installed one this year, and they earned several thousand yuan more a month than me!"

"So you installed one too?"

"We must be safe. Isn't it that we do this to make money? As long as we can make money, we have to learn no matter how difficult it is." Taxi drivers in Yanzhou are all talkative, and they can't close the chatter box once they are opened.

Li Rui just wanted to know about the current situation of Xingrui's travel from the perspective of a taxi driver, and the two of them chatted enthusiastically all the way.

According to the driver, there are about a dozen taxi-hailing software on the market now. The only big ones are Xingrui Chuxing, Yaoyaohao, Baimi Taxi, Taxi-hailing Secretary, and Taxi-haiyi. Other small software are basically useless.

For human use.

"With so many software, master, why do you only use Xingrui for travel?" Li Rui asked.

The driver smiled and said: "This software is simple and suitable for old guys like me who are not very good at using smartphones. Moreover, their staff are very enthusiastic. If you don't understand anything, go to their company or service point, no matter if it is six or seven in the morning or the middle of the day."

There are people there in the middle of the night. They also often hold activities and have many users. The most important thing is that they give a lot of subsidies!"

"Really? How much subsidy can you get for this order?" Li Rui asked.

The driver said: "Take your order as an example. A normal taxi ride from Xinlang Building to the West Railway Station costs more than 40 yuan. The software provides a subsidy of 25%, which is about ten yuan, plus a subsidy of five yuan for the evening rush hour.

If we receive orders every day, we can subsidize another two yuan for each order at the end of the month, which is much more cost-effective than working on the street normally!"

Li Ruidao: "Listening to what you said, this software is really good."

"Don't you also get 50% off taxi coupons? I heard that some people borrow the mobile phones of relatives and friends to register a bunch of numbers, and then change the number when the taxi coupons are used up. This usually saves a lot of money."

"Isn't this a bit excessive?" Li Rui laughed.

The driver curled his lips: "The capitalist's wool will become white if it is not plucked out."
