Chapter 552 Is it worth 1 billion to speak? (Part 1)
The Shunda logistics system has been established, at least initially.
The network covers many provinces in Central China and East China.
We also have branches in provincial capitals and major cities in North, Northwest, Southwest and other regions.
In other words, the foundation of Shunda Logistics Network System has been laid. Next, it only needs to develop slowly, and as long as no big mistakes are made in decision-making, it will only take time to develop and grow.
Zheng Ge quite trusts A Liang.
Ah Liang is now considered a qualified entrepreneur.
Instead of a bodyguard.
"Dongsheng e-commerce platform is mainly a business-to-consumer model, which belongs to the b2c model." Huang Liya continued in the office.
"I have seen this model in books. It is an e-commerce model of 'business to customer'. It is an e-commerce model that sells products and services directly to consumers. This is similar to Taobao's two person-to-person e-commerce models.
The model is different. Moreover, it is a self-operated model, so it should have prospects."
Guo Ya analyzed and said.
"Yes, the current e-commerce market has basically taken shape, with only a few overlords fighting each other. Other small e-commerce platforms can only survive in the cracks."
Zheng Ge chuckled and said: "If you still follow Taobao's 2 model, it will be difficult to develop. But if you change the model, it will be different. It's just that his self-operated model... is a bit difficult to do!"
As he spoke, he remembered a platform from his previous life: Pinduoduo.
Group shopping model.
This model seems to have been called the 2b business model in previous lives.
There is no similar model in this world.
There is no so-called group-building mode.
This group-building mode is not simple.
In the previous life, Pinduoduo was established in 2015. At that time, platforms such as Taobao, Tmall, and JD.com had become bigger and stronger. But what about Pinduoduo? It forced its way out of the cracks.
Finally, it was successfully listed.
The market capitalization reached US$25 billion, and at its peak, it seemed to be US$29 billion, right?
"Yes, the self-operated model requires the platform itself to purchase goods and establish a warehousing system. If you want to expand, you need to build large warehouses in various regions across the country." Guo Ya said.
Zheng Ge nodded.
This Dongsheng, to put it bluntly, is similar to JD.com in its previous life.
"Mr. Zheng, Cai Dongsheng mentioned Shunda before. Do you think he is eyeing Shunda?" Huang Liya said.
"It is possible that Shunda's logistics network currently only covers a few provinces in central and eastern China, but we have established or plan to establish large-scale warehousing and distribution systems in various places." Zheng Ge said with a smile.
"Ha! So Cai Dongsheng is here to acquire Shunda, right?"
Guo Ya said jokingly.
He usually doesn't know much about the express logistics company, but he will pay attention to it from time to time. After all, it is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the group.
According to his understanding, this is a company with great potential.
I'm afraid even if it exceeds 100 billion, it won't be a big problem.
"Impossible, they can't afford the acquisition. The current overall valuation of Dongsheng Company is only about 300 million." Huang Liya shook her head and said.
Although Shunda is not yet popular at present, it is not something Dongsheng Company can acquire.
Zheng Ge smiled, stood up, and said, "Okay, let's go meet the entrepreneur and see if he has any fresh ideas."
Guo Ya nodded, stood up and said, "Mr. Zheng, why don't I go see you first."
An entrepreneur came to the door out of nowhere and wanted to see Zheng Ge without even making an appointment?
To be honest, I don't have the qualifications.
"Forget it, idleness is idleness. Let's go and have a look." Zheng Ge waved his hand and walked out of the office.
Guo Ya and Huang Liya saw this and quickly followed out.
…
In a reception room, a man about 30 years old was sitting there, somewhat uneasy and anxious. From time to time, he looked outside the reception room.
He is Cai Dongsheng, the founder of Dongsheng E-commerce Company.
At this moment, he stood up suddenly.
I saw a group of people walking over from outside. Cai Dongsheng stared closely at the young man leading the group.
He recognized that this young man was Zheng Ge, the founder of Changge Group and the founder of the Hope Project, who was very popular in the Chinese business circle.
"Hello, Mr. Zheng."
Cai Dongsheng greeted him.
Although Zheng Ge is nearly 10 years younger than himself, he does not dare to be careless at all.
"Hello, please sit down."
Zheng Ge stretched out his hand and smiled.
Upon seeing this, Cai Dongsheng sat down.
Zheng Ge took a look at Cai Dongsheng. He was not very tall, about 1.6 meters tall, wore a pair of glasses, had a somewhat honest face, and looked like a real person.
Of course, it’s not always accurate to look at faces these days.
"Mr. Cai, please tell me why you're here." Zheng Ge didn't have any extra courtesy. For someone like Cai Dongsheng, it was enough for him to come and meet him. There was no need to be polite.
"Mr. Zheng, I'm here to seek your investment."
Cai Dongsheng said.
"Oh?" Zheng Ge said with a smile, "Tell me about your company."
Cai Dongsheng nodded and said: "Our company's business model is a b2c e-commerce model and a self-operated model. It requires the establishment of large-scale warehousing systems in various regions across the country, as well as logistics and distribution services, as well as unified after-sales services...
"
He gave a general overview of the company's situation and development model.
Zheng Ge listened carefully.
Although he doesn’t know much about e-commerce, nor has he done any in-depth research, he lives in the information age after all. In his previous life, he had used Tmall, Taobao, or JD.com.
So he can feel that the models of Dongsheng and JD.com are very similar.
"Approximately how much capital do you need?" Zheng Ge asked.
Cai Dongsheng was silent for a moment and said: "We currently need 1 billion funds."
"One billion?"
Zheng Ge shook his head and smiled, and said: "As far as I know, your company's current overall valuation is only 300 million. Are you asking for 1 billion in this breath?"
"No, Mr. Zheng, I think external institutions have underestimated Dongsheng. They simply cannot understand the true potential of our company." Cai Dongsheng said confidently.
"Okay, besides funds, what else do you want?"
Zheng Ge smiled and shook his head. He could feel that Cai Dongxing's trip was not just for funds. If it was just for funds, there was no need to go to him. He felt that the other party was interested in his own resources.
Cai Dongxing was silent for a moment and said: "I hope to reach strategic cooperation relationships with Yuanda Group, Xianyu, and Shunda Express Logistics Company."
Zheng Ge was stunned for a moment and looked at Guo Ya beside him.
I originally thought that the other party was targeting Shunda, but I didn't expect that they were also targeting Yuanda and Xianyu!
Today, the Xianyu platform is the absolute leader in China’s idle goods trading market. Although other idle goods trading platforms are emerging one after another, such as bamboo shoots after the rain.
