8:30 PM, MUSE Bar, Hang City.
Inside a lavishly decorated private room on the second floor, Chen Yansen sat in the center of the sofa, flanked by NetEase's Ding Lei on his left and Zhou Shouzhi, President of DST China Region, on his right.
Cheng Weixing, Gao Weilin, Song Yuncheng, and the assistants of Ding Lei and Zhou Shouzhi were seated on either side.
"President Chen, I hear the subsidy war between DiDi and Fast Taxi is getting pretty intense. Is it true even Li Yanhong is getting desperate?"
Ding Lei swirled his glass, the ice cubes clinking softly against the sides. A teasing glint appeared in his eyes from behind his glasses, and the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile as he posed the question to Chen Yansen.
"Burning money is just the first step in fighting for market share. Building a solid foundation is what's truly key," Chen Yansen replied with a smile, gently setting his glass down on the coffee table.
