Chapter 624: Simplify it
Chapter 624 Simplified
The City Managers Conference was held on Wednesday, and managers from various cities flew to Lanchuan.
Hungry Bu holds 500 million yuan, causing a stir in the market with fierce momentum. The feelings of these city managers are the most intuitive. They originally thought that this issue was to deal with Hungry Bu, but they discovered after arriving. The topic is to promote the group supply chain.
The afternoon sun was mild, and the east wind blew into the group headquarters, sweeping over the pothos on the windowsill and swaying gently.
The intern lady from the group logistics department came gracefully and poured water for the managers sitting there. Jiang Qin’s voice kept ringing in the conference room.
“Each platform has its own style of play and rhythm, but we cannot let our friends follow their rhythm.”
“Remember, the purpose of doing business is not to be brave and aggressive, but to stay calm, focus on money, and obtain sufficient profits.”
“The group-joining supply chain has been well established in first- and second-tier cities. We continue to move into cities, and at the same time try to integrate the region as a whole to sign merchants into our supply chain.”
“When we did group buying before, we maintained good relationships with merchants in various business districts. Let’s use them as representatives to establish a supply side for takeout.”
“Uncle Ma’s five hundred million is very delicious. I want to know how much I can get.”
There is no way. They have just gained an advantage after receiving the investment, and the pace they have finally driven cannot be stopped here.
Wei Lanlan and Dong Wenhao looked at him from the side and said to themselves that the boss no longer acted. In the past, if he didn't pick up money when he went out, it would be lost, but now he wants all other people's investments.
At the same time, Tonight Toutiao also accurately pushed supply chain advertisements on local news channels in various regions, targeting some groups defined by the algorithm as "catering practitioners".
【Group grouping is just a platform】
When you are hungry, don’t immediately take on the challenge and start subsidizing activities.
If it breaks, he will burn money!
Jiang Qin didn’t care much about how much the group delivery business grew during the entire promotion process, but the profits of the group supply chain took off rapidly, and the business volume increased rapidly.
As the manager of Kyoto, Ye Ziqing has to supervise the completion of KPI every day and check the business volume of each sector.
The advertisements for group takeout are once again spread online and offline, as if they are afraid that others will not see them.
In the following period, trucks carrying group-sharing supply chains kept speeding, entering designated locations and delivering ingredients to the store through the back door.
Perfect ingredients only require simple cooking, and are then handed over to the rider from the merchant's front door, either yellow or blue.
Get discounts and burn money!
To simplify things, Alibaba injects funds into the group supply chain.
After the meeting, sub-stations across the country started to move, and the kings of local promotion began to appear in the streets and alleys, using WeChat as a base to establish supply groups and include merchants in need of food supplies.
Alibaba did not inject funds for Hungry, nor did Hungry provide merchant subsidies. Order volume surged due to market stimulation, merchants increased procurement scale, and the group supply chain worked hard to swallow up orders.
After the contracts reached a certain scale and a complete supply network was gradually formed in first- and second-tier cities, group food delivery took off.
At this moment, she deeply felt what Tan Qing told her when she was doing group buying in Shanghai.
Jiang Qin’s expression was dull, but his eyes were bright, as if he could smell the aroma of money.
Every local promoter is now a merchant manager.
Jiang Qin also has KPI requirements for them, asking them to try their best to ensure that enough merchants join within the business scope they are responsible for.
In the era of takeout, small stores have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. However, due to their small size, it is difficult to find high-quality and low-priced supply channels. The open supply chain contract signing in groups is like the rain from a severe drought.
No matter how big the platform is, all it can take away is the commission from the merchants under its control, as if it is putting all its eggs in the same basket.
However, even if the current group joining does not require these commissions, there will still be enough profit points.
At this time, the transportation pressure of Hengtong Freight also began to increase dramatically, and the current transportation capacity has reached its limit.
“Boss, Mr. Cao called and said that they acquired a logistics company and a seafood supply company, and funds are a bit tight.”
“Invest another amount of money and leave this matter to Xu Yu.”
“Are you still doing the previous activities?”
“Do it, keep burning, and draw out all the 500 million from Uncle Ma. I believe that when this money is burned to the end, it should be able to create a larger supply network for us.”
"clear."
The vigorous development of the e-commerce industry has led to the overall growth of the logistics industry. Shunfeng, Santong, and various logistics companies have become stronger and stronger.
Hengtong Freight currently does not have the size of these companies, but its profitability is three times that of Shunfeng. This is mainly because e-commerce logistics is too complicated and the unit price cannot be raised. If it wants to improve profitability, it can only continue to expand its scale.
However, Hengtong Freight, as the only designated partner in the group supply chain, certainly has no such concerns. As Internet commerce continues to develop, this gap will become wider and wider.
Master Cao is a strange person. He doesn’t have the diseases of the rich second generation, but he really has the destiny of the rich second generation...
In the afternoon, Wen Jinrui ran to the school with Wei Lanlan’s investment contract and asked Jiang Qin to sign it.
Master Cao was standing next to him, holding a piece of grilled sausage in his mouth and tiptoeing like a loser.
After the thesis defense, his life consisted of going to the laboratory to find Ding Xue and playing games, or wandering around and being carefree.
He has just returned from the laboratory. He has a red mouth and was attracted by the contract in Jiang Qin's hand as soon as he entered the door. "What's this?"
“Uncle is going to invest money for your family again.”
Mr. Cao was dizzy when he looked at the string of zeros in the contract: "Lao Jiang, let me tell you the truth, I will definitely be the successor of Hengtong Freight in the future. Why don't we skip the intermediate steps and give me the money directly!"
Jiang Qin raised the corner of his mouth: "If I give you so much money, will you be moved?"
“I can be moved to the point of trembling!” Master Cao started to tremble as soon as he spoke.
Jiang Qin hummed: "Then will you treat me to dinner?"
“I’ll treat you to a Manchu banquet.”
"In this case, let's just skip the step of giving money. Lao Cao, treat me to dinner."
Cao Guangyu held his breath, immediately showed an expression of "I'm sorry to disturb you", and left quietly.
At this time, Jiang Qin signed the contract and gave it to Wen Jinrui. At the same time, the company's payday had arrived, and there was a salary slip that needed his approval.
Logically speaking, the payment of wages is the task of the finance department, and the boss does not have to worry about it. However, there is an employee's salary slip, which needs to be personally approved by the boss every time. This employee enjoys benefits that even 208 start-up employees cannot enjoy. Hui Huizi, who loves sweets.
Three hours later, Hui Huizi looked at the pay slip she had received and fell into deep thought.
“Why is it gone again? What did I do again?!”
Gao Wenhui angrily took out her mobile phone and called Jiang Qin: "Jiang Qin, why is my salary this month zero again!"
Jiang Qin's cell phone heard a dog barking: "You know it in your heart!"
???”
Gao Wenhui, everyone is stupid. Recently, you have been writing papers and having meetings, but I have never seen you at all.
Thinking of this, Hui Huizi turned her head and looked to the right. Near the glass window, Feng Nanshu was sitting there looking at her mobile phone.
She wore a pair of white short-sleeved and washed denim shorts today. Her long, silky hair was tied into a ponytail, and her whole person had an innocent and agile temperament.
Gao Wenhui walked over and took a look at the screen of her mobile phone.
Feng Nanshu is reading Jiang Qin’s news, and then saves all the good-looking pictures to his mobile phone.
Seeing Gao Wenhui coming over, she couldn't help but raise her face with a blank expression.
“Jiang Qin deducted all my salary again. Although I don’t know what I did, I believe you must have a bonus to pay me.”
Feng Nanshu squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then reached out to open his bag and took out his small wallet: "Don't tell brother."
Gao Wenhui’s face wrinkled up: “I don’t even know what happened, you can just let me knock on it.”
"I don't know either."
Feng Nanshu made a small face because she had so much dissatisfaction that she couldn't figure out where it was exposed.
Gao Wenhui nodded after listening, "Okay, okay, you two have been testing the boundaries of Bupeng like crazy all day long. I don't know anything, but my sense of participation is so strong."
At this moment, the loudspeaker placed at the front desk suddenly sounded, reminding him that there was a new group takeout order and asking her to process it in time.
She walked over to take the order, and found that the group discount had been discounted by 40% off the original discount.
Ordinary people don’t know what this discount means, but it undoubtedly brings the entire competition in the food delivery market to a fierce stage.
“Are you still following the group group?”
“Not only are they following us, they are also offering discounts and discounts. In addition to takeaways, their daily specials are also offering discounts all day long.”
Zhang Xuhao felt a little numb after hearing this.
The group is the one who doesn't like burning money, but this time it seems to be full of energy to go with him.
Although Hungry didn’t get more funds, he still felt frightened by the hundreds of millions thrown into the market every day.
And the entire Internet business circle is also watching this scene, feeling numb at the rivalry between the two companies.
To be honest, the amount of money burned in the food delivery war has so far been equal to that in the group buying war.
The circle has been discussing this matter all day long, and there is a lot of discussion about Jiang Qin’s sudden increase in investment. Some people say that group takeout should take advantage of this time to completely capture the entire market share.
But some people expressed confusion, thinking that behind them are Tencent and Alibaba. No matter how rich their capital is, can they be as rich as these two big companies?
It wasn’t until half a month after the money-burning war that Jingdong’s president received a report from Jingdong Logistics and immediately forwarded it.
While the food delivery platform was burning money, Hengtong Freight acquired three logistics companies, built five new warehouses integrating warehousing and rough processing capabilities, and is undergoing digital transformation.
“Their goal is not to be hungry at all, they hope to use the huge order volume to expand their logistics line!”
Shunfeng's president couldn't help but jump out: "The group supply chain has always been one of the biggest profit-making projects of the entire group. After this period of expansion, its current profitability may have caught up with Shunfeng."
