Chapter 96 How many days is 3 million enough to burn?
After receiving the $1 million, I was finally able to get on with things.
So Lin Yi and the three of them got together again and began to discuss how to repay the "warm reception" given by Are You Hungry some time ago?
Li Jianguo said excitedly: "We will also hold an event, which will be more powerful than Are You Hungry? We will pay back all the bad luck we received some time ago!"
The senior sister was obviously not that impulsive: "We only have 1 million US dollars on hand, which is one-third of Hungry's latest round of financing. We cannot defeat them in a war of attrition."
Li Jianguo said nonchalantly: "But their business is bigger than ours. If we spend all 3 million US dollars in the capital, then we won't need it elsewhere. What do you think, Lin Yi?"
Lin Yi found that since the incident in the hospital last time, senior sister's vision seemed to be different from before. He was very interested and asked the question: "What does senior sister think we should do?"
Li Moyan did not hesitate and continued what Li Jianguo just said:
"Their stalls are bigger than ours. What we have to do is not to hold on to our own one-third of an acre, but to actively go outside and expand our stalls. I wonder if I'm hungry? It's still far from being possible."
Can you cover the sky with one hand?"
"I agree!"
Lin Yi expressed his support for the senior sister's opinion: "Are you hungry? Of course we can't say that we can cover the sky with one hand. In fact, before this round of financing, they only covered five cities."
"Of course, after receiving the latest US$3 million, I heard that their three branches in Suzhou, Bingcheng and Rongcheng have been opened this month, and the number of cities they have entered has increased to eight."
"If we only stay in the capital and continue to fight with them, that will be what they want to see most, because when we are trying our best to parry, they still have another hand outside to attack the city and seize territory, which will change
You will get stronger and stronger."
"Don't tangle with the enemy on his preset positions, so we don't have to worry about what obstacles they put in our way in the capital."
"We have to attack in the opposite direction and compete with them for the national market cake!"
Although Li Jianguo's opinion was rejected, he didn't feel very disappointed because the words sounded so exciting. He finally felt like the "peak showdown" of entrepreneurs he had seen in the story meetings before.
"Then we also go to Gusu, Bingcheng and Rongcheng? It just so happens that the three of us can go to one of them."
This guy is still too obsessed with competing with Hungry? In fact, if Hungry hadn't come to the door first, Lin Yi would not have planned to compete with it so early.
What do you do with swords and guns when you are racing to claim territory?
"Choosing the right city is very important. I don't know how Hungry chose the city, but we must have our own strategy."
"We don't intend to go head-to-head with Hungry in the capital. There is no need to follow his lead. We will go wherever he goes."
"Of course, we don't deliberately avoid collisions with him. As long as it meets our selection criteria, we will enter."
"Where do you think we should go, senior sister?"
Li Moyan felt that Lin Yi was a bit like testing herself in school. There were no outsiders here and she had no burden of face, so she said to herself:
"So far, the business scope of our takeout website is still in various universities. We basically achieved full coverage of universities in Beijing before the end of the year, and we are still deepening penetration."
"This is the place we are most familiar with, so wherever there are many universities and there are many college students, that's where we want to go."
Lin Yi felt very relieved that the senior sister was fully able to make this most important decision for them at this stage. He added:
"The cities with the most universities and college students in the country, besides Beijing, are: Jiangcheng, Yangcheng, Yuzhou, Shangdu, Shencheng, Chang'an, Rongcheng and Jinmen. There are eight of them. If we can get them all within this semester
It’s pretty fast to get down here.”
Li Moyan knew that Lin Yi had a plan early on. She heard Lin Yi say with her own ears in the hospital that day, "We will not stay in the capital forever."
"Tell me your plan."
"Are you hungry? I got three million and entered three cities at once. We are not as wealthy as him, so we can get two first. Then we have to pick the two most important ones, which are Jiangcheng and Yangcheng!"
"Ah, only two?"
Li Jianguo was a little disappointed. He was still thinking about the "three-way attack" plan he just mentioned.
Lin Yi had indeed considered it before. If there were only two people to go, of course he and his senior sister could only go. As for Li Jianguo, he still needed him to stay in the capital.
"Although we said we won't fight with Hungry Me in the capital, this is our base camp after all, and we can't just leave it alone. If all three of us go out, what if Hungry Me really steals our house?
The gains outweigh the losses.”
"So Jianguo, I need you to stay in the capital and take charge. This is not a slight to you, but it is to ask you to take on the most important task of looking after the house."
Now the website is operating very stably in the capital. Although the APP has just been launched, it is currently running relatively smoothly. There are also many people helping him. He feels that putting Li Jianguo here should be enough to cope with it.
Of course, there is another minor reason that is not very important that Lin Yi did not mention, that is, he still remembers when the school started that he wanted Li Jianguo to stay in school more this semester to avoid failing too many subjects and being expelled from the school.
Although Li Jianguo regretted it, he still accepted the arrangement.
As for the senior sister, she asked directly: "How to divide the two of us? You choose first."
Lin Yi was not polite: "I am more familiar with Yangcheng. If senior sister is okay, I will go to Yangcheng and you to Jiangcheng."
Senior sister didn't care, so the matter was settled.
"When to set off?"
"The faster, the better. We are currently the one lagging behind in this running race. But before setting off, we still need to think about the plan after landing. Let's discuss it first and then implement it. We also need to think about who to take with us.
.”
Lin Yi and the others are no longer mere commanders. They certainly won't be so humble as to go out to expand territory and expand their territory alone.
However, their staff are all current students and cannot leave for a long time, so it is impossible for the out-of-town team to be taken care of by people from the capital. At most, they will go over to help set up the structure in the early stages.
"We don't necessarily have to completely conquer the local market before we're done. The key is to form a stable local team that can operate independently, so that we can leave it to them with confidence."
The big strategy had been decided, and finally Lin Yi said two words to boost morale:
"Are you hungry? If he wants to fight us in the capital, we will go all over the country to fight him. Let's see, his 3 million US dollars is enough to burn for a few days!"
