Chapter 191 Sales of Iron Army

The Spring Festival in 2008 is on February 7th. Considering that many businesses will be on holiday during the Spring Festival, the economy has not yet developed during the Spring Festival.

Lu's Meituan also has a seven-day holiday.

In the past few days before the new year, we mainly focused on training to prepare for the market launch after the new year.

For southern cities, the first phase has drawn up seven cities: Shenghai, Gusu, Lin'an, Wuxi, Luzhou, Jiangcheng and Hongdu.

As for the northern part, five places were designated: Jingcheng, Jinmen, Bincheng, Chuncheng, and Fengtian.

Throughout February, these twelve cities will be put online.

The amount of business is another matter, but the shelf must be put up first.

With the number of users and business volume, it is easier to raise the valuation and introduce venture capital.

Otherwise, Lu Yan's money alone wouldn't be enough to burn it, and he couldn't keep burning it.

When February entered, he finally sold out all the remaining 600,000 shares of China Shipbuilding Corporation.

Because they are the last ones left, we are not afraid of alarming big institutions anymore, let alone a large order that will crash the market.

When the price was high, more were sold, and the average price was actually 273 per share, which was much higher than the previous average price of 257.

These 600,000 shares were sold for another 164 million. Adding the more than 300 million remaining in cash, Lu Yan's cash assets now reached another 500 million.

In addition, there is a food delivery company with a registered capital of 100 million, and real estate worth more than 40 million, making him a proper billionaire.

The 5th was the 29th day of the lunar calendar. After Lu Yan distributed a closing price to each employee, he announced a holiday.

On the 30th, I spent the Chinese New Year at home on the first day of the junior high school. I left home since the second day of the junior high school. I first went back to Bincheng to spend two days with Ruan Xiaoxiao and attended one of her classmates.

After that, he went to the capital, looked at the villa that Xiao Wanru had just renovated, and gave Ruan Xiaoxiao another two million.

On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, he flew to Lin'an. After staying at the hotel, he first called Ma Yun.

The latter is in the capital at the moment and has no time to talk to Lu Yan in detail. But if he wants to raise funds, he can go to Ali's headquarters and someone will receive him there.

But this time, Lu Yan did not want to raise funds, but came to poach people.

The target is the famous "China Supply Iron Army" in the "Ali Empire".

As the so-called three gangs of a hero, Ma Yun was able to achieve such brilliant achievements because, in addition to his own genius, he also had two major helpers, one was his "Public Relations Team" and the other was the "China Railway Supply Army".

The former did not mention the great achievements in the development of "Ali" and only talked about "China supplies the iron army".

The "China Supply" here is the abbreviation of "Chinese Supplier".

The "China Railway Supply Army" is the salesman selling this B2B product.

It is said that Ali, which started from B2B, relied on its door-to-door local promotion team to cultivate the first batch of online merchants in China, and also created a large number of Ali executives and entrepreneurial CEOs.

When they gather together they are like a ball of fire, when scattered they are like a sky full of stars, and the world calls them Ahri's Central Iron Army!

Among these people came Cheng Wei, who later founded Didi.

You Qian Jiawei, Wang Xuan, COO of Meituan, has single-handedly built Meituan’s local promotion team.

Lu Guangyu, Dianping COO

Chen Guohuan, COO of Ganji.com

Zhang Qiang, COO of Qunar.com



But what Lu Yan was interested in was Qian Jiawei, whom Wang Xun invited six times in another time and space.

This person is also considered a legend.

In 1986, when he was a freshman in Harbin Shipbuilding University, he suddenly wanted to drop out and start a business.

His parents were both engineers, so they naturally refused to admit that studying was useless. But after they escorted Gan Jiawei back to school, as soon as he left, the other one ran away.

In order to save money, Gan Jiawei went to Wuzhen Winery to work as a porter. After working for a while, he started a fashionable business through connections - using the dual-track system to transport steel.

In an era when a household worth ten thousand yuan was envied by everyone, he could sometimes earn ten to twenty thousand yuan a month.

He was young and frivolous, so naturally he could not walk at night in fine clothes. Qian Jiawei was very prosperous for a while, but something unexpected happened.

In April 1989, he planned to sell wood from southern Yunnan to coal mines in Jiangsu and Zhejiang through army wagons.

Unfortunately, an earthquake occurred in southern Yunnan, followed immediately by a nationwide "shock".

His capital was exhausted and everything was reduced to zero. But if the two things happened a little later, the profit would be huge, and the rest of his life would be completely different.

As a last resort, he was reduced from a businessman to an office worker. After working in more than a dozen jobs, he gradually realized that although a diploma did not represent ability, it was in many cases a useful stepping stone.

So, five years after leaving college, he prepared to go to college again. While working, he studied by himself to prepare for the college entrance examination. In 1991, he was admitted to Lin'an Business College.

Neighbors were amazed: "Lao Gan's son has been admitted to college again!"

Later, Gan Jiawei joined the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Fuel Corporation, stayed in the capital for three years, and then went to a small town to sell coal.

At the age of thirty, he felt that he should not stay in Sunset Industry.

In February 2000, this deputy section-level cadre of a state-owned enterprise who felt that "the company name Ahli sounded very unreliable", with the idea of ​​​​changing careers first, entered Ahli, which was almost the only Internet company in Lin'an.

Became a "China Supplier" member salesperson.

At that time, people generally believed that the Internet was a futile and conceptual thing, and that the reliable new economy should be IT and software.

In January 2000, when Ma Yun talked about the Internet at an event organized by Harvard Business School, she was immediately considered seriously unreliable by the CEO of the investment banking department of Orient Securities.

"Looks like an alien and talks more like an alien. How is that possible? According to normal logic, it is impossible to see his vision."

"Zhonggong" is an Internet prepaid product without a physical entity. Customers pay 18,000 yuan, and all they get is an account of an Internet company, and then they have to wait for overseas buyers they have never met to inquire. Many small and medium-sized enterprises

The owner doesn’t even have a computer, let alone the Internet!

If you give such a product to many job seekers today, they probably wouldn’t know how to sell it in those days!

It took Gan Jiawei only two and a half months to place an order. The vice president of marketing who recruited him at that time resigned, and he was only half a month away from being laid off.

However, great people always have their own merits.

This "Ren and Supervisor" sales manager probably got through the setbacks, and his performance quickly improved by leaps and bounds.

Ahri officially started to be ranked first in sales in January 2001. Gan Jiawei ranked first in the country for 6 months in 7 months and ranked second in the country for one month. Ma Yun personally awarded Ali the first best-selling

Crown Award.

Later, naturally, I switched from sales to management positions, and my positions were promoted one after another. Then I was invited to Meituan by Wang Xun for "six visits to the thatched cottage".

With such a precedent, Lu Yan naturally wanted to ask him to come over and help.

After all, Zhou Xiaoqing’s sales management experience is different from the local promotion model of Internet product promotion. Xu Jiaqing, Song Jing and others also need time to grow.
