Chapter 121 Ask
Everyone turned their gaze toward the Gemini app data that they had always ignored.
Elbert said, "This is 800 million users! Our Gemini app has been online for less than a month, and in just one month, it went from being unknown to being known by everyone. 800 million users! This is definitely the pinnacle of internet history!"
He continued, "Veridiania has a population of 1.6 billion. Half of them are using it! In today's internet market, an app with 100 million users is already a very proud achievement! In just one month, the Gemini app connected 800 million users and impacted thousands of industries! This is a terrifying growth! Who else can do this?"
Elbert's speech was eloquent and moved everyone.
A sudden sense of accomplishment welled up in everyone's hearts. Although Paul Three created the core code of the Gemini app, all the daily maintenance, graphic design improvements, optimization adjustments, and complaint handling—even the company's formation from scratch—were achieved through their tireless efforts, day and night!
Watching the expressions on everyone's faces change from confusion to determination, Elbert smiled with relief. "Going up against Meta Platforms Company is not impossible! Believe in ourselves!"
These words were abrupt, making everyone more confident.
"The fact that you all came to the Creator means you will never settle for mediocrity! People look up to the strong, envy the strong, and hope to one day stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the strong. But those who truly achieve great things do not think this way. What they think about is how to surpass the strong, defeat the strong, and even crush the strong! What about Meta Platforms Company? It may be strong, but there is no invincible opponent in the world! Even when facing an insurmountable opponent, you don't even have the right to feel sorry for yourself until you've given your all!"
Elbert's words were unhurried, but they contained an unusually strong force! The dim flame in everyone's hearts was once again fueled! They silently clenched their fists!
"That's right! As Paul Three said, we haven't made an effort yet, our strength hasn't been shown, and everything is just beginning!" they started to yell.
Elbert stood proudly with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over each employee's face.
"Now, the entire Veridiania and even internationally, everyone knows that our Creator has declared war on Meta Platforms Company! Don't forget, in the eyes of outsiders, the Creator, which seems to have no chance of winning, has already stood on the same stage as the internet giant and drawn its sword!" he said.
"No matter what the outside world says, let me ask you, how many companies in all of Veridiania can compare with Meta Platforms Company? We, the Creator, are one of them! Just this step alone makes the Creator stand out among the crowd! I ask again, who wouldn't admire our courage to stand against the founder of Meta Platforms Company and openly engage in a business war with such a giant enterprise?"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a chill rise from their feet to the top of their heads! Their whole bodies were covered in goosebumps!
Paul Three's two questions were so domineering! They were all encouraged.
"Who says our Creator will be destroyed? We are just rising to a whole new height! A height where we have the potential to defeat the giant and become legends!"
Everyone looked at Elbert with burning eyes. Elbert's words struck right at their hearts, hitting the mark! In just a few words, he ignited the raging fire in their hearts!
Alvin, standing to the side, also looked at Elbert in astonishment. He was equally deeply inspired by these words! At the same time, he once again looked at Elbert with new respect!
He suddenly realized that the silent, reserved Elbert beside him had such a strong sense of leadership! Faced with the depressed atmosphere among Creator's employees, a few words from him made everyone wake up and clench their fists in anger!
'He is a pioneer, a creator, and a leader. This is the kind of charisma and aura a leader should have. Anyone who understands will be impressed,' he exclaimed inwardly.
"Paul Three, what should we do next?" The employees turned excited, and they were all eager to return to their workstations.
Elbert smiled freely. "To win, confidence alone is not enough! You also need extraordinary strength! Let me ask you, what is the most important data for an app?"
"Download count!"
"Ranking!"
"Content!"
"Design!"
Everyone shouted out.
Elbert shook his head slightly. "It's the user's love that's most important! Internet products are always developed around the user's needs! If we want to defeat Meta Platforms Company, we don't need to develop a variety of products but rather perfect our core!"
He then added, "Take the Gemini app, for example. As long as it meets the user's needs and the users love it, they won't abandon it! Active users will naturally be high, and user stickiness will naturally be high! We are not afraid of Meta Platforms Company's competition at all!"
Elbert's words once again drew everyone in.
"Is Paul Three planning to optimize the Gemini app?"
"But in the eyes of many programmers, the Gemini app is already perfect to the extreme!"
"The stranger matching function can only be described as miraculous. It feels like an insurmountable existence! What else can be done?"
They began discussing it.
Elbert smiled slightly, and the large screen behind him instantly changed. A title appeared: Gemini App Stage—Finding the Most Suitable Stage for You!
"Stage? What is this? It sounds interesting!" Everyone's curiosity was completely piqued!
It looked like a feature update for the Gemini app.
Then, the page turned. A new feature diagram appeared—a simple interface. The first line was the user's avsatar and username. The second line was a short phrase written by the user. Then, there were nine beautifully arranged pictures in a 3x3 grid. At the bottom, there were comments and like functions.
"Why was it so similar to Facebook?"
Everyone scratched their heads in confusion.
