Chapter 380 The Era Of Group Purchasing Is Here
On March 6, Jingzhe, the third of the twenty-four solar terms, refers to the spring thunder in the sky awakening the hibernating insects on the ground, which also means that spring has returned to the earth and all things have revived.
The temperature in Linchuan began to warm up, and the precipitation gradually increased. Spring plowing and spring planting, spring rain continued.
During this period, Wei Lanlan had selected a group of backbones in the Ministry of Commerce, and Sunai's application for off-campus internship was also approved. After the sixteen people gathered, they went to Kyoto together.
Wei Lanlan contacted a GIS company called Gaode, and Sunai contacted a freight company called Ocean Supply Chain.
The businesses of both sides were carried out at the same time, cooperating with each other while being independent of each other.
In fact, before coming, the two people had a feeling of knowing half of the boss's purpose. Jiang Qin said it was okay, and they would know when they went there.
And when they arrived, looked, and studied, they really understood what they needed to do.
The purpose of negotiating cooperation with Gaode is to add an online navigation function to group buying, so that consumers can see the store location at a glance when choosing to go to the store.
It not only saves the trouble of calling to inquire about the location, but also allows customers to quickly understand the distance between the target store and themselves.
It is said that the Shanghai World Expo Museum is currently using this system, and Jiang Qin also came for this system.
On the other hand, Sunai also found something very interesting in the ocean supply chain.
This company is engaged in import and export trade and has its own logistics park, which covers a large area. The goods they transport involve various fields, and the categories are complicated and diverse.
Add to that the tedious work steps such as receiving, inspecting, packaging, and transporting, this logistics park should have been a mess.
However, Sunai found that this was not the case.
They have their own freight management system, where the upstream department enters the data and the downstream department checks and receives the goods, which not only saves time but also saves labor costs.
After observing for about three days, Sunai understood that the boss wanted him to refer to their freight management system and develop a product management system suitable for group buying.
After the system is launched, merchants can use the commercial background of group buying to list the goods or services operated by the store, and can also change the inventory, seats, business hours and other information at any time.
You should know that the store information entry before group buying is done by the technical department.
The several newly launched group buying websites also follow this model, actively collecting merchant information, and then arranging their own technicians to manually help these merchants to list.
It's okay for dozens or hundreds of merchants, but as the market expands, the workload will double.
How many merchants are there in a city? How many merchants are there in ten cities? How many merchants are there in a hundred cities?
When you spread across the country, how many people do you need to update these merchant information at any time?
But once Pintuan develops its own product management system according to the cargo management system of the ocean supply chain, the originally complex and cumbersome links will be delegated to the merchants.
Let the merchants do the upstream themselves and directly display their information to downstream customers through the commercial background of Pintuan, which is a win-win situation.
"When did the boss make these plans? I was a little scared."
"I suddenly understood why the boss was not in a hurry to go to the battlefield."
At the Hilton Hotel in Kyoto, Sunai and Wei Lanlan exchanged their gains in the past few days, and they were shocked in their hearts.
Yes, whether it is positioning services or product management systems, it is still just an idea at the conceptual level so far, but even a fool can know that when this idea is realized, it will be a killing spree.
Sui Xintuan dared to show off its power in the national market by copying Pintuan's business model, but they certainly didn't know that the Pintuan they copied was just an initial version.
The boss has been suppressing the development of group buying for the past year, and only now has he revealed his true fangs.
They can't imagine how desperate group buying websites like Suixintuan will be when group buying enters the battlefield.
"Too much information, how about reporting it?"
"Yes, I should report it."
Wei Lanlan took out her cell phone and called Jiang Qin: "Hello, boss..."
But then, her eyes froze slightly: "Ah, it's the boss's wife, I miss you so much, it's a pity that we left in a hurry and didn't meet you."
"..."
"Yes, I'll report my work to the boss."
"..."
"Oh, okay, then I'll wait a moment."
Su Nai glanced at Wei Lanlan: "What's wrong?"
Wei Lanlan lowered her voice: "The boss took the boss's wife out for a spring outing, and now they are on the tree."
"On the tree?"
"Yes, the boss's wife said she wanted to eat the sour jujube on the tree, so the boss climbed the tree." Wei Lanlan said, reaching out and pressing the hands-free button.
At this moment, there was a whirring sound from the other side, followed by a burst of "Oh my god", and the world seemed to be still.
Wei Lanlan and Sunai held their breath, not daring to breathe, wondering if they would have a chance to eat.
But soon, Jiang Qin's voice came from the receiver: "Lanlan, what's wrong?"
"Boss, are you okay?"
"It's okay, I'm so proud, I just got a little scratched, just tell me if there's anything."
Then Wei Lanlan and Sunai talked about their observations and findings over the past few days, and explained the concepts of merchant positioning and commodity management system.
Jiang Qin fully affirmed what the two people saw and learned, and told them to keep it strictly confidential and not to make it public, and to come back immediately after the cooperation was concluded, and Sunai should also return to work quickly after understanding the system.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Qin looked up and looked around, and saw that the mountains were endless and beautiful wherever he looked.
This is a small hill next to the western suburbs. The scenery is very beautiful in early spring. Today, he specially brought Feng Nanshu out just to relax. If he hadn't fallen from the tree just now, it would definitely be a perfect day.
But when he turned around and looked at the little rich woman, he found that she was looking at Jiang Qin's arm with tears in her eyes, and one hand carefully covered his wound.
"Does it hurt?"
"It hurts. It makes you greedy. Do you still want to eat dates?"
Feng Nanshu shook his head desperately, with watery light flashing in his eyes: "I won't eat it again."
Jiang Qin spread his hands, revealing a handful of small sour dates in his palm: "Unfortunately, I have already picked them."
"Jiang Qin, you are a good person."
"Try one and then tell me if I am a good person."
Feng Nanshu took the mountain date and immediately spit out the pink tip of his tongue after eating one. It was obviously sour.
Jiang Qin laughed twice, thinking who would have known that when the group buying market was full of smoke and the war was gradually spreading, the final winner was still leisurely climbing trees in the mountains, teasing his lovely good friend, as if nothing had happened.
What is pattern? Perhaps the more you fight, the calmer you are.
"There were a lot of small thorns in that place just now. Did they prick your feet?"
Feng Nanshu shook his head in confusion: "No."
"Are you sure? Or should we check it out, just in case?"
"?"
Jiang Qin righteously untied the shoelaces of the little rich woman, took off his sneakers, revealing a cute little foot wrapped in white cotton socks, with a serious expression like a doctor.
A big boss with a net worth of tens of millions, who doesn't like golf, equestrianism, or yachting, is just this kind of talent.
While Wei Lanlan and Sunai were working more and more, the marketing department backbones selected by Tan Qing also went to various major cities separately. In three days, they hired back the people who had done ground promotion for Zhihu before and signed a formal cooperation agreement.
Then they hired a group of fighting coaches to train them every day.
The projects included weighted marching, grappling exercises, 1-on-1 fighting, and 1-on-N fighting.
The people who were recruited were also very puzzled, thinking, what is the point of learning these, you can't fight again in the future, right?
1-on-1 fighting is nothing, after all, a random punch can kill a master, but what about 1-on-N? Is this a melee? Damn it.
You know, their ground promotion team in each city starts with at least ten people. If it's 1-on-N, everyone has N opponents, which is 11N.
Is this a serious job?
However, although there were doubts in my heart, who would dare to say that it was not good to get paid just by exercising every day? So everyone was very motivated.
In this way, the training lasted for half a month, and the people in the ground promotion team made rapid progress. It was fake to fight 1 against N, but if they faced someone they had never trained before, 1 against 2 would probably not be a problem.
And many people have trained their tendons, their bodies are getting better and better, and their mental state has become very high.
In late March, at six o'clock in the morning, the temperature in Hangzhou was only 12 degrees, and the morning breeze was quite cold. The people at the Hangzhou branch were carrying a five-kilometer training with a load, and suddenly heard a sound of falling into the water when passing a bridge.
A group of thirteen people came over to see that it was a girl trying to commit suicide, so they immediately took off their weights and went into the water to save her. In the end, they were presented with a silk banner and were on the local news.
After Jiang Qin knew about this, he called to express his condolences and issued a bonus to the rescuer.
Everything is moving forward in an orderly manner. Although there are occasional accidents, most of them are good things.
At the same time, the national group buying market is also constantly changing.
Sui Xin Tuan began to layout Shanghai after the New Year. Now it has gained a firm foothold and started to expand its business to Kyoto as Ye Ziqing planned.
But at this moment, the group buying market is no longer just Sui Xin Tuan.
Lashou.com went online in mid-March. Before Sui Xin Tuan could react, it directly occupied Kyoto as the target city and asked Ge Daye to be the spokesperson, and launched the banner of Lashou on group buying.
Wowo.com then went online and established an online mall. Within three days, it signed more than 100 merchants in Shanghai.
Subsequently, more than 100 group buying websites such as 24quan, Gaopeng.com, Manzuo.com, First Group Buying, Discount Hui, Yiwotuan, Daily Goods, and Help You Save emerged like mushrooms after rain, and more and more Internet companies are on the road to building websites.
The era of group buying has arrived.
