Chapter 192: Ah Li makes a mistake, and group buying becomes a battle again!
Binhai University.
In the girls' dormitory, as soon as she hung up the phone, Tang Yu winked at Gu Xiaoxi beside him: "Did you see that? The third brother is still so shameless, and his true nature was exposed immediately."
"I don't know how to wear a bathing suit."
Tang Yu had just turned on the hands-free mode, and Gu Xiaoxi's face had already turned red.
"Of course I won't wear it, the beautiful third brother!"
Tang Yu started laughing, like a little fox who had succeeded in his conspiracy.
Gu Xiaoxi: "..."
I always feel like why these two brothers and sisters came from the same school?
…………
The other end.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Shuo called his secretary, "Help me book a vacation villa in Meiya with a swimming pool and a private beach, and buy some air tickets."
With that said, he pushed Tang Yu's Wei letter to the little secretary.
"Boss, are you going to go to Meiya Beach for vacation on May Day?" Chen Xiaowan was very envious.
She originally planned to travel with Du Qingqing, but Du Qingqing was lectured by Zhang Shuo and had already started an inspection tour of branches across the country, so he had no time to go out.
"If you want to go, let's go together."
Zhang Shuo saw through the little secretary's little thoughts at a glance. He didn't plan to say that it would be awkward to go out alone with Tang Yu and four other people. Bringing the little secretary along could also help.
He is even planning to bring his best friend Zheng Zhebin along with him.
As for the eldest brother, he has a family now, and his sister-in-law is also pregnant. Not to mention having to work overtime during the holidays, even if he is resting, he must be the main one staying at home.
"thank you boss!"
Chen Xiaowan was happy and went out to book a flight ticket.
…………
April 30, Meiya International Airport.
Because there is no concept of Golden Week, this year’s May Day holiday is three days, including Saturday and Sunday, which are already closed. In fact, May 2 is a one-day holiday.
Even so, it still hasn't stopped people's enthusiasm for traveling.
The airport is crowded.
Zhang Shuo and his party were one of them, and the team was very large.
In addition to the four golden flowers from Tang Yu's dormitory, the accompanying team also included the secretary, driver Li Feng, best friend Zheng Zhebin, and two followers Dong Ziyi and Beibei.
It was also because we were in such a hurry to book a vacation villa that only the last super large villa was left.
The kind that can accommodate twenty people.
In the spirit of not wasting anything, and since Zhang Shuo hasn't been to the welfare home much recently, he took advantage of the May Day holiday to take the two kids out to play together.
Anyway, Chen Xiaowan and Gu Xiaoxi are taking care of her.
After landing, the Qiongzhou Branch of Qingcheng Technology was responsible for the reception. Not only did it arrange vehicles and drivers, it also specially assigned a local employee to act as a tour guide to avoid pitfalls.
The service can be said to be very good.
As soon as they got off the plane, the group took a car to a restaurant in Meiya for lunch. The location was not very eye-catching, and the decoration was ordinary, but the food was really delicious.
Especially the seafood, all fresh ingredients are delivered on the same day.
Even Zhang Shuo said he was satisfied.
After eating and drinking, we took the car to the hotel and checked into the reserved holiday villa.
Can you believe that the villa even comes with a personal butler?
In addition, being accompanied by a tour guide, the group had a lot of fun in the next two days, including outdoor swimming pools, seafood feasts, island diving, yacht fishing, sea surfing and other activities.
Everything has been arranged.
Every day is just about eating, drinking and having fun, and everyone is completely relaxed.
On the last day, Zhang Shuo was so tired that he didn't go anywhere. He lay on the beach chair, lazily drank iced juice, faced the sea, and relaxed his spirit.
On a private beach.
Tang Yu, Chen Xiaowan and others were wearing very conservative swimsuits and playing at the beach. Gu Xiaoxi was accompanying Dong Ziyi and Beibei, two little kids playing in the sand, saying they wanted to build a castle.
Li Feng wore sunglasses and stood by coolly.
"I finally experienced the happiness of rich people. It's really refreshing." Zhang Shuo couldn't help but sigh.
From the time they set out to the present, their group has been picked up and dropped off by car, and accommodation, meals, and entertainment have all been carefully arranged, so there is no need to worry at all.
The key is that during a busy holiday, you can still enjoy a private area without crowds.
This is what we call tourism.
"???"
Zheng Zhebin, who was standing next to him, had a strange expression, and replied leisurely: "Aren't you always a rich man?"
"That's different." Zhang Shuo said with a smile: "Most of the time, I'm not the same as you. I go to work on time every day, eat in the internal canteen, and my life is not any easier than yours, okay?"
"This is true."
To be honest, Zheng Zhebin actually admires Zhang Shuo for being so rich and yet not becoming bad.
It was him instead.
He must have turned into a playboy a long time ago, flirting with women everywhere, and making waves all over the world.
Not happy?
"So you can't become rich."
Zhang Shuo seemed to have seen through Zheng Zhebin's little thoughts, "The kind of life you imagine depends on your father."
"People cannot be broken down even if they are difficult."
Zheng Zhebin doesn’t want to chat with Zhang Shuo anymore, it’s boring!
Just pick up your phone and take a selfie, then post it to your friends circle as a habit.
"Have you posted on Moments no less than ten times in the past three days?" Zhang Shuo was speechless.
"You don't understand this." Zheng Zhebin was quite proud, "I finally went out to play and played at such a high level. Of course I have to post it on Moments. Otherwise, how can I create a character for Moments?"
"Aren't you chasing Xu Jia again? You don't need to attract other girls, but you also have to have a silly persona?"
Zhang Shuo couldn't help but complain.
"At first glance, you look like an amateur, and Xu Jia is also a woman. If I don't make my circle of friends more high-end, how can I be worthy of her?" Zheng Zhebin seemed to be really serious about Xu Jia.
Be careful with your thoughts.
"Haha." Zhang Shuo is not stupid, "How many pounds do you have? Xu Jianeng didn't know? She even sent me a Weibo letter yesterday, saying that we didn't even ask her when we came to Meiya to travel."
"Then let her be greedy!"
Zheng Zhebin was very domineering. He casually took another "beautiful picture" of the beach and posted it to his circle of friends.
It's a little bit vulgar.
……………
The three-day vacation passed by in a blink of an eye. When he returned to Binhai City, Zhang Shuo quickly got into work mode. The enjoyment of rich people is very good, but there is no need to enjoy it all the time.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Just try something new once in a while.
Otherwise, Zhang Shuo would have no guarantee that he would not be seduced and corrupted by the luxurious life.
So much so that it sapped the fighting spirit.
The May Day holiday has just ended, and the group buying industry is booming again.
On May 5, more than 200 employees of Laishou.com in the East China region collectively switched jobs to Wowo Group, thus unveiling the bloody mass-robbing war among group buying websites.
Every day at major group buying websites, people leave their jobs and new people join.
Deep in the whirlpool of war, group buying employees are both miserable and happy. What is painful is that the team is in turmoil all day long. When you come back from a business trip for a week, it is very likely that the people in the office will be changed all over.
Happily.
Every time you change jobs, your salary will at least double.
As a result, they enjoyed a rare period of bonus. With a high salary that was completely incompatible with their abilities, they lived a casual life of dining, drinking, and KTV bureaus every day.
Everyone spent money like water.
Some people took the opportunity to buy a car, and some even took the opportunity to buy a house, becoming the first to become winners in life.
All in all, I don’t know if there is a final winner among the group buying websites in this labor poaching war. Anyway, the group buying employees enjoyed the dividends of the war first.
I quietly made a fortune.
But the moment of glory always comes to an end. When the group buying war is coming to an end, the major group buying websites have run out of funds, and the cold winter is coming, no one knows how many people will be laid off.
In the end, only chicken feathers were left.
For those who have enjoyed short-term high wages, they may find it hard to cope with being laid off or accepting a salary that is half or even one-third of the original salary.
When the bubble bursts, it is the moment of awakening.
The most ironic thing is that this kind of circular farce is not only in the group buying industry, but will also be staged in various fields such as taxi hailing, education, games, live broadcasting, and finance in the future.
The real you will appear on stage after you sing!
Because the robbing war spread so widely, it was almost an indiscriminate attack. Even Qingcheng Technology, a "marginal existence" in the group buying industry, was inevitably affected.
Branches across the country that have just completed reorganization receive resignation applications almost every day.
It gives me a headache.
As a result, Du Qingqing, who originally planned to return to Binhai City for rest, had no choice but to temporarily change his itinerary and continue to patrol various places to stabilize people's hearts and reduce the loss of personnel as much as possible.
Qingcheng Technology is unlikely to spend a lot of money, nor is it interested in poaching people from other peers.
Then we cannot just sit back and watch employees resign in large numbers.
Because once a wave of resignations occurs, the branch office that was finally established will basically be paralyzed or semi-paralyzed, and it will not even be able to maintain minimum operations.
Therefore, although this is an opportunity to "wash away from the sand", some action must be taken.
Zhang Shuo's advice to Du Qingqing is that there is no need to specifically retain him, but he can slightly suppress the resignation letter and advise employees not to resign immediately, but to wait for another month or two.
In order to minimize the risk.
In Zhang Shuo's estimation, this drama will be almost over in a month or two.
…………
In addition to the battle to grab people, there is also the drama of financing.
Different from the ruthless tactics of Dangerous and Wowo, Mushuan, who did not take the usual path at the beginning, finally made big moves after a month of silence.
On May 8, Moutuan announced that it had received US$50 million in Series B financing from Ali Scarlet Capital.
As soon as the news came out, it was like a shock bomb was dropped.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that with this round of financing, Moutuan not only received US$50 million in financial support, but also gained the official support of the giant Ali.
It also means.
The giants headed by Ali have officially come to an end and have strongly intervened in this group buying game.
It is said that Ali originally wanted to invest in Laishou.com, and even the legal documents were prepared. However, it failed because Laishou.com did not agree to join Juhuasuan.
Then the fungus became cheaper.
The most ironic thing is that Zhang Shuo clearly remembers that the original time and space mold group finally parted ways with Ahri, but ended up joining the banner of Ahri's arch-rival Tengda.
It's very dramatic.
This incident also reflects the different investment logics of the two giants Tengda and Ali.
