#406 - Chapter 406: Warehousing and logistics model, beats Taobao? Two difficult problems!
Liu Qiangdong has been running around recently.
The goal is just one thing.
Fundraising!
His company is of relatively high quality, and there are many people who want to invest, but the problem is that the conditions are harsh.
He decides how much to raise, and doesn't allow anyone to own too many shares.
Not only that.
He requires that no one interfere with the company's operations, and the operating team must remain the same.
With these harsh conditions, who would be willing to invest?
In the past few days, he has contacted many wealthy people in Shanghai, and the first one on the list is Qin Lang.
At first.
Qin Lang was quite interested.
But as soon as he heard the conditions, he immediately backed down.
And now!
Liu Qiangdong called again, and Qin Lang's attitude was direct—no investment!
But unexpectedly...
Just when he thought the other party was going to hang up, he suddenly changed his mind and asked him to come over to talk.
There were two people in the private room.
One was Qin Lang.
The other one...
A young man wearing sunglasses, is he Qin Lang's assistant or bodyguard?
It doesn't matter!
He shook hands with Qin Lang and exchanged greetings, then introduced his company, the business philosophy, the highlights, and then talked about the future... Of course, he is not as good as Ma Yun when it comes to bragging and drawing cakes.
In fact, the current Jingdong and Ma Yun's side do not really have conflicting businesses.
Jingdong's main business is currently computer products.
It has become the largest agent in China in the optical and magnetic product category.
It only entered e-commerce in early 2004.
The problem is that Taobao has also started selling those products he sells!
To put it bluntly.
Taobao sells what he sells.
Taobao also sells what he doesn't sell.
As you can imagine...
The living space is severely squeezed!
So, the idea of expanding the sales category was born.
Actually...
Everything is a butterfly effect!
In the previous life.
How could Taobao develop so quickly?
At the beginning, Chen Hao not only invested in Ma Yun, but also gave him a future development plan, and Taobao's development far exceeded that of the previous life—Jingdong encountered survival pressure earlier.
Similarly.
Also because of the pressure to survive, Liu Qiangdong had the idea of entering the e-commerce industry earlier.
Fundraising is urgently needed now!
However...
His current concept is only at the level of about 2004 in the previous life.
Jingdong made a big step forward after 2007.
Launched the warehousing and logistics model!
Just as Liu Qiangdong was beaming and introducing future visions, Chen Hao finally spoke: "Mr. Liu, do you think that entering e-commerce now can beat Taobao?"
"..."
Liu Qiangdong was stunned.
He turned his head and looked at Chen Hao: "You are..."
Chen Hao didn't introduce himself, and continued to talk eloquently: "Taobao has completed the construction of the e-commerce website and has a lot of funds in hand."
"Even if Mr. Liu gets investment, he will not be able to compete with him."
"Because, you are late!"
Too late!
These three words hit his heart like a heavy hammer.
"However... I do have an idea that can not only compete with Taobao, but even suppress the opponent," Chen Hao smiled.
"Mr. Qin, who is this?"
"Let me introduce you."
Qin Lang pointed to Chen Hao and smiled: "Mr. Chen Hao, Chairman of Hanteng Capital."
Chen Hao then took off his sunglasses.
By the way.
He handed over a business card.
Taking the business card, Liu Qiangdong was dumbfounded.
Chen Hao rarely gives out business cards, only in special circumstances, in order to achieve certain goals.
If Liu Qiangdong had seen this business card earlier...
He would definitely not have looked for Qin Lang!
"Mr. Qin, this..." Liu Qiangdong was stunned.
Chen Hao is the chairman of Sheng Tang Pharmaceutical?
What about Qin Lang?
"In fact."
Qin Lang shrugged: "When Langyue Pharmaceutical was renamed, the company was no longer exclusively mine, and Mr. Chen is the largest shareholder."
"Mr. Qin, maybe I shouldn't have come." Liu Qiangdong stood up.
"Once Mr. Liu walks out, Jingdong will have no future," Chen Hao said suddenly.
"..."
Liu Qiangdong paused: "What do you mean?"
"Actually, I am the largest shareholder of Taobao," Chen Hao smiled.
Huh?!
Liu Qiangdong once thought he had misheard.
"I am going to build an e-commerce company that will suppress Taobao," Chen Hao added.
"..."
Liu Qiangdong still didn't say anything.
"Take a look at my plan, it won't hurt Mr. Liu, right?"
"Okay!"
Liu Qiangdong finally sat down again.
Taking out the A4 paper he had prepared in advance, Chen Hao began to write and draw: "Let's not talk about the fact that the express delivery industry is not developed due to the limitations of transportation. Even if the express delivery industry is very developed, how long will it take for goods to travel from the seller to the buyer, crossing the north and south of China, given China's land area?"
Taobao has many sellers and a wide variety of goods, which is a great advantage.
But!
The disadvantages are also obvious.
First, sellers and buyers are scattered all over the country, and the delivery speed is greatly limited.
Secondly.
Taobao only provides a platform, and the products come from countless sellers.
This leads to uneven product quality.
There are many fakes and inferior products.
"Warehousing and logistics model!"
Chen Hao casually drew a map outline on the paper: "Establish warehouses in each province, and ship from local warehouses according to the province where the buyer is located."
"We don't need sellers, Jingdong is the only seller, to ensure product quality!"
"In the future, warehouses can be sunk from provincial capitals to every city."
"Mr. Liu thinks..."
"What will Taobao use to compete?"
Liu Qiangdong was completely dumbfounded.
In this mode...
Beating Taobao!
Especially now, Taobao is also in the early stage of development, and logistics and other aspects are very poor.
"But..."
Liu Qiangdong came back to his senses and muttered: "This faces two problems!"
"First of all, preparing a large number of goods in advance means a huge investment of funds."
"Secondly, such a large warehouse..."
It can no longer be regarded as a warehouse.
But a warehousing park, the scale is extremely amazing.
How to get the land?
After all, it's not just one piece of land.
But every province, and even sinking to the city!
"I want 90% of the shares." Chen Hao grinned.
"Huh?!"
"From now on, no matter how much capital Jingdong needs to invest, I will take care of it all by myself!"
Liu Qiangdong's eyes narrowed.
According to Chen Hao's business model, a huge amount of capital will inevitably be invested.
No matter how much is invested, the other party will be responsible for it, and he will always own 10% of the shares.
He knows.
In the long run, he will benefit.
He neither agreed nor refused: "Mr. Chen, how do you plan to solve the problem of warehousing parks in various provinces?"
"I am responsible for getting the land."
"I am responsible for the construction."
"Your team is responsible for the operation!"
Chen Hao smiled.
"Are you... sure?!"
The implication is.
How can the other party make him believe that he has this ability?
"Let's start with Shanghai."
Chen Hao pondered slightly: "Considering transportation and other issues, I think Pudong is good... Mr. Liu, would you like to come with me?"
They didn't eat.
Go straight to a place in Pudong New Area.
More than half an hour later.
The three stood on a tall building, and Chen Hao pointed to a piece of land: "The Shanghai warehousing park will be located here, how about it? I'll give you 100 acres first, and then we'll talk about it as needed."
Liu Qiangdong frowned suddenly.
Originally.
The business model given by Chen Hao, as well as the promise of unlimited investment, ignited a flame of hope in him.
But now...
Isn't this guy a psychopath?
Just said a place casually, brought me here, and then said to give me this piece of land?
Who do you think you are?
The emperor?
The land belongs to the country, and you can give it to whoever you want?
Why don't you go to heaven?!
"Mr. Chen, I am late."
As luck would have it.
Secretary Huang, with a smile on his face, led the subordinates of the business department and boarded the rooftop with a smile.
