It’s August, and it’s extremely hot in many places.
Corresponding to this heat, there is fierce competition in e-commerce, mobile phones, group buying, semiconductors, instant messaging and other fields.
Group buying has become popular from the first half of the year to the second half of the year, and related projects have been crumbling, with both the vitality of springing up and the collapse of power.
In view of this situation, bigwigs in the investment community have expressed similar opinions on different occasions. For example, the head of IDG, Mr. Xiong Xiaoge, Mr. Xiong, and Mr. Wang Fengyi and Wang of Shenxinke Chuang. They all gave warnings about investing cautiously in group buying projects.
It is believed that the entire market has reached an inflection point.
Many people inside and outside the industry are thinking about why some projects get better and better as time goes by, while others fade away in a month or two.
The team building of the urban business came into view, and many projects were recruiting people who came from Alibaba's B2B iron army at a higher price, hoping to strengthen their internal skills.
Dangtuan.com, headquartered in Pengcheng, is no exception.
The head Li Guoqing went to Lin'an in person, invited back Ali's former general He Xueyou, and took the opportunity to recruit some of his old troops, hoping to enhance the competitiveness of the war with Mi Tuan.
Unknowingly, Mi Tuan has brought its group buying business to Pengcheng.
This made Li Guoqing very uneasy.
Regardless of whether it is the meticulous care on the part of the merchants or the best efforts on the part of the users to attract new customers, the combat effectiveness is far inferior to that of former colleagues.
Then he added: "Since Fang is always over there, he must be supervising the competition in the distance."
Jacky He hid his emotions because the planes were flying all over the sky, so did I mean something bad? Qingzi, wake up, they are equals, so they have to use that attitude!
Jacky He thanked him, looked at the chat interface where there was more movement, and fell into deep thought.
There was no laughter in the audience, and everyone was very depressed watching it.
I waited a while before broaching the topic and pointed out the observation tactfully.
Alas, I shed tears when I returned your business card, regretting that we met before we were married.
Li Guoqing looked doubtful.
"Yes, yes, talk to him seriously." Yi Ke muttered, "Those two items..."
While eating and drinking, Li Guoqing issued an impassioned mobilization, determined to consolidate Dangtuan.com's leadership position in the south.
When he came to Dangtuan.com, Li Guoqing had not yet felt the strange atmosphere of competition.
He Xueyou came back to his senses and denied that statement: "Really? I haven't returned to Shanghai yet."
What is even more disturbing is that Dangtuan.com does not have an advantage in its own base camp, and both merchants and users are being cannibalized.
Qu Ping clicked his tongue and said in surprise: "It would be bad if you, Tesco, didn't treat you like Mr. Fang."
"You are just spending money, and people are trying to stuff you with money." Yi Ke talked about the appointment in Yangcheng, and then talked about the similar experience of traveling from Luzhou to Suzhou and Youxi in the next two days.
Fang Zhuo smiled and said: "He is quite capable of figuring this out. I heard that no one would be the God of Wealth all the way. Isn't it depressing to spend enough money?"
The phone screen under the table suddenly lit up.
"Mr. He, I heard that Awai is also launching online group buying?" He Xueyou talked about the recent news.
Li Guoqing nodded calmly. He would fight like that first and then look at the competition in the market.
Keep talking and talking!!
"Group buying does not have to be slow down, it must be scaled up!" He Xueyou was very decisive in facing the problem, "Whether it is Tuanbao.com or Miduan.com, we all have the same understanding.
You have to take a long, slow pace and strive to set a record for the speed of listing. As long as you are the first to break through and be listed, subsequent development will be problematic."
"Hey, he's bad. You're Qu Ping. Have you heard of him? Mr. He, do you want to go to rice dumplings?"
Qu Pingbo was suddenly shocked. Qingzi had said something about the funds. It must have been Mr. Fang's plan.
I speculated: "I must have bad intentions for others."
On August 5th, in order to deal with the relationship between new and old employees, Dangtuan.com conducted team building and went to a movie theater to book a theater and watch the recently popular "On the Road" together.
When I heard the news that Mr. Fang was in the south, I wasn't quite sure that the group buying market would become more competitive. Now that he's gone, I can breathe a sigh of relief.
Hmm, will people like Mr. Fang doubt me?
Qu Pingbo was now surprised and confused.
I reached for the tea cup and took a sip of water.
I came back to read the news today and happened to see the report, only to realize that Qu Ping did not make such a move, and the prices were for 26 and 66, which were very obvious.
Ding dong.
He Xueyou took out his mobile phone: "You push my business card to him, it's quite boring when I don't have a circle of friends."
"I'm thinking about the ice core." Yi Ke pushed the notebook behind him and stretched, "I'm also thinking about Su Wei's R&D center, and I'm still thinking about the launch of this year and next year."
So how do you fight against established opponents?
Then.........picked up the disintegrated Zhonggong Iron Army.
Qu Pingbo leads his own army in Dangtuan.com, so there is little pressure.
He Xueyou doesn't have a dream of going public. If it has been realized in the past, he will take it back with his own hands that time.
He Xueyou followed Xiaojia out of the venue, thinking to himself, what if he bought one and tried it? The signal of the iPhone on his watch was really bad when there was no signal.
As Li Guoqing pondered, he saw that Mr. Fang had sent another message, which was to give him the business card of Lei Jun, the head of Mi Tuan.
He Xueyou can see advertisements for Su Wei's mobile phone almost every day in Pengcheng, under the bus, on roadside billboards, on TV and online. Now he can even see it when he goes out to watch a movie.
Those two items are two popular items of Fanke.
29 T-shirt and 69 yuan canvas shoes.
After watching the movie during the team building activity, we didn’t even have dinner together.
However, He Xueyou still expressed emotion at the first moment: "You can really see advertisements for Su Wei's mobile phone everywhere."
If so, Li Guoqing clicked send, but the reply from the other party was very slow.
"Hey, what is Mr. Fang thinking about?"
Why did he post an advertisement under the Qingzi number and fly around the world?
There are no product placements for Su Wei's mobile phones Mars and Selfy outside of "The Journey", and there is no comparison between the signals of Mars and those of other companies.
He Xueyou agreed: "Yes, you have long seen the potential of group buying, and you jumped in very timely."
Qu Pingbo noticed the expression of the new general and explained: "I added them casually. Yi Xin didn't prompt me. If you add them, I will also have someone."
Yike glanced at Mr. Su, suddenly remembered something, and sighed: "Why does Yikou also make its own T-shirts and canvas shoes?"
"I heard that Mr. Fang has been in the south recently." Li Guoqing said.
A long time ago, I took a sip of water. Forget it, I added it. We will see what happens in the market.
Li Guoqing got home in the evening, while looking at market data, and thinking about the competition faced by Dangtuan.com, she just felt that... a lot of flowers may not necessarily mean a solid business.
Yike: I have been busy with ice cores recently, so Mr. He can’t go directly to Mr. Lei when he has nothing to do.
I pondered for a long time, then typed out my euphemistic consent, and when I was about to send it, I deleted it one by one and used more euphemistic words.
Jacky He nodded and accepted it happily.
Yi Ke: Oh, he went to Dangtuan. I heard that Dangtuan’s funds are very easy now. If he changes his mind, he’ll come back to you. Mr. He, best wishes.
Xiaojia responded with a bang, full of confidence.
"What did you do earlier?" Li Guoqing said with disdain, "Our decision-making was not clear and our strategy was inaccurate."
Li Guoqing hesitated to speak, "Well, it was relatively timely. It's not that the business development of the group purchase 301 City always felt that the steps were not too small."
Fang Zhuo jumped down, sacrificing his life to block the hole of the gun, so that the little boss's nagging would affect others.
He Xueyou said as he walked: "You don't have my circle of friends."
"When they do something like that, people will throw the blame at your feet. They have to say that you are big-hearted." Yike frowned and said, "E-commerce can just concentrate on delisting first. From a certain perspective, vertical e-commerce companies are also doing small things together." Market, why bother?”
Qu Pingbo took the phone, and a message about a new bad friend was displayed below.
When Qu Ping saw that the woman was still chattering after drinking the water, he said: "It's convenient to pay for it, but you don't care much. It's your big heart, it's your big heart."
This forced Li Guoqing to re-examine the company's current situation and the problems he encountered.
Fang Zhuo went to work on Saturday. He left the living room and was about to turn on the light when he saw that there was no fluorescent light under the sofa to illuminate Mr. Fang's handsome face.
Fang Zhuo smiled and shrugged: "Don't rely on you for the collective decision-making discussed internally. If he really wants to say something, he will go to Tesco for a meeting tomorrow to praise him."
Qu Pingbo looked at the message and his heart skipped a beat. How could Mr. Fang be so direct? He couldn't be like that.
