Su Yehao called and temporarily handed over the task of establishing an online shopping platform to the North American branch of KOKO Venture Capital.
It doesn’t matter whether you find someone to develop it or acquire it directly. The initial budget is five million US dollars, and the preparatory work is expected to be completed in Silicon Valley.
They stay in Silicon Valley to prepare the website, and will also arrange to open a company in Tokyo, which will be responsible for market research, finding warehouses, and opening up logistics and distribution channels.
With Amazon's e-commerce model as a model, it's not troublesome to build a framework.
Take the first step first.
As for whether to operate self-operated logistics, how to purchase and reduce costs, etc., it is not too late to consider it slowly based on the actual situation.
Online shopping has just developed a few years ago. Even in the United States, where the Internet industry is currently the most developed, it is still an emerging field with a special niche. Japan is still a wasteland. Everyone is on the same starting line. Even if there is a gap, the distance is not too big.
big.
Su Yehao has no shortage of funds and has more than 300,000 Japanese ICQ users in his hands. At the same time, he is very clear about the general direction of future development.
Compared with him, even though the Lotte shopping website has developed for a year, it actually has no advantage at all.
On the contrary, Amazon Japan, established in 1995, seems to be more threatening, because Amazon has recently raised a lot of money, has relatively sufficient funds on its books, is rich, and has also begun to pay attention to the development of overseas markets, and Japan is the focus.
one.
Unlike instant messaging software that only needs to maintain servers and programs, whoever has more money in the online shopping industry is more likely to have the last laugh. There are too many places to burn money.
If it weren't for the opportunity to attract customers at low cost, Su Yehao would not dare to talk about starting a business casually. If he is not careful, it will be in vain...
Nong Qingying took him to the UKAI teppanyaki shop in Ginza 5-chome.
As a representative of Tokyo Teppanyaki, this store is of extremely high quality, has a long history, and its interior decoration is similar to that of an art museum.
After Su Yehao sat down, he smiled and said: "No wonder you bought the house near Ginza. It is surrounded by delicious food. It is really convenient."
"No way, it's very torturous. I'm usually afraid of getting fat, so I only dare to eat at home. Occasionally I go out to enjoy myself. I don't have anyone to eat with me. It's hard to find someone to chat with."
After Nong Qingying finished complaining, he handed him the menu and told him: "This restaurant specializes in Kobe Kuroge Wagyu beef. The seafood and seasonal vegetables are also very high-end. I have been here once before. I don't know why, but I saw those with beautiful patterns.
The meat is delicious, and the chef helps grill it in person, which makes it feel particularly delicious.”

Looking at the big iron plate in front of him, Su Yehao tried authentic Teppanyaki for the first time.
When ordering food, he said: "Then you are lucky today. You consumed too much last night. It's okay to eat more with me. You are not allowed to leave until you vomit."
"...Yes, I'm going to be wild for a while. I'll forget about it until I get fat."
That's what I say, but Nong Qingying has nothing to do with the word "fat".
Her figure was so good that she attracted the attention of many diners as soon as she walked into the store.
The price of UKAI kiosk is high, and you need to make a reservation to enter the store. It has become a place for many people to discuss business, especially every night, they often entertain guests after dinner, and then go straight to the club opened by mamasang to drink.
Nong Qingying's appearance was so eye-catching that when she was going to the bathroom, an old man in his forties or fifties came over to ask her which club she was an employee of.
Nong Qingying cannot understand Japanese, but he can understand the word "Mama-san".
He rolled his eyes at the old man, sat back next to Su Yehao on high heels, and complained to him about the old man.
"I haven't done anything to you, have I? If you live here, be sure to bring a bodyguard. There are clubs everywhere in Ginza, and you are so beautiful, it is inevitable that you will be misunderstood."
"Yes, there are people from the club who invited me when I was shopping and said that I used to earn at least 200 million... yen per year from my job."
Nong Qingying sneered and added:
"For a small amount of money, you still want me to accompany you for drinks. It's disgusting. But speaking carefully, unlike Hong Kong City, the status of women in Japan is indeed a bit low. It is too difficult to achieve success at work. , they all want to find a rich husband to marry, and then quit their jobs to stay at home and raise their children.”
After hearing this, Su Yehao smiled in surprise and said: "Earning 200 million yen a year and an annual salary of more than 10 million Hong Kong dollars is really a high salary."
"Of course, don't look at my beauty. Two hundred million is a small amount, right? If it weren't for making money, how could there be so many beautiful girls trying their best to work there? It is said that they all need to undergo special training. Some professional models also work part-time.”
Nong Qingying was drinking tea, holding her chin with her right hand, and jokingly said to Su Yehao: "A man like you should be able to make money by being a cowherd. Rich women will probably like you very much."
"... Then take some time tonight and go see it together?"
Su Yehao asked tentatively.
The waiter has already brought the dishes, including lamb chops, prawns, beef, etc., and the chef is heating the iron plate and pouring oil to wipe it.
He spoke Cantonese to Nong Qingying, which has its own encryption function in Japan.
Nong Qingying was not afraid of being heard. She nodded immediately and said with a smile: "Okay, I finally couldn't help it. The fox's tail is exposed, right? You are indeed interested in that kind of place."
"Obviously it was you who suggested it first. I just wanted to have a drink and see the world. How can those tacky girls compare to you? Remember to dress nicely and take you to make a scene."
Su Yehao had no worries and spoke in a very calm tone. He really just wanted to learn more.
He has been to Tokyo several times and has visited famous attractions. There are not many places that interest him, and one of them is the dazzling array of clubs on the streets of Ginza.
The wagyu beef is quickly fried, cut into pieces and placed on a plate.
Su Yehao tried a piece. It tasted crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. He always felt that it lacked a little cumin and chili, so he made do with black pepper sauce.
As soon as the two pieces of meat were eaten, another middle-aged man in a suit came up to chat with Nong Qingying. It seemed that he wanted to pretend that he had met before, which was very exaggerated.
Nong Qingying shrugged and said that this was the case before.
Su Yehao was very impatient and said directly in English: "Disappear."
Snapped his fingers.
The bodyguards standing at the door were already paying attention to what was happening on his side, and immediately came over to grab the middle-aged man's shoulders and dragged him to another place.
Afterwards, the bodyguards gathered around Su Yehao and Nong Qingying, fully on guard.
The chef in charge of frying the meat spoke English and whispered, "I know him. He is the director of a university hospital and he is a regular customer of our store."
Su Yehao was too lazy to care, Dan Ding said:
"So what? My family has eight private hospitals. Am I proud? This kind of self-righteous lunacy bothers me the most. I don't know where the confidence comes from..."
