Actually I just want to act

Chapter 766 Online shopping is too troublesome
Fang Jiming's Taobao is making money from merchants.

Cai Hongxin was a bit critical at first, but when he thought that being a business is not a charity, the merchant has already saved the registration, store opening, etc. fees, and it seems reasonable to pay some money to make the online store more beautiful.The most important thing is that some fruit growers in their hometowns, through the hands of Cai Hongxin, helped to put them on Taobao.Having helped fruit farmers in his hometown increase their income, Cai Hongxin firmly believes that Fang Jiming's model is feasible.

Even though the fruit on the market sells for more than 20 yuan a catty, the purchase price of the fruit growers in the place of origin is only one or two yuan.

The emergence of Taobao has helped these fruit farmers sell their fruits at a good price.Although it is said that it cannot be sold for more than 20 yuan a catty, even if it is sold for [-] yuan, the income of fruit farmers has increased by four or five times.

Even if Taobao can only help farmers in less remote areas at this stage, as long as it persists, more and more fruit farmers will definitely benefit.

This is probably why Cai Hongxin is willing to work for Fang Jiming wholeheartedly.

To be honest, all the programmers under Fang Jiming have special skills, and many of them are willing to give the vice president treatment when they go to other companies.But they didn't leave, except that Fang Jiming was willing to give money, and more importantly, Fang Jiming had a clear goal and the mission of each company.

For example, Feixun's mission is to make communication close at hand.Baidu's mission is to use technology to make the complex world simple.Shenzhou, the mission is to use technology to change life...

The mission of Taobao is also very simple, which is to make business easy to do in the world.

It is this kind of grand mission and vision that makes Cai Hongxin and other talented people gather under Fang Jiming's banner and work hard for a common goal.

Everything on Taobao seems to be thriving.

However, Pan Rui was not very happy.

Because Taobao uses internal prices, express delivery basically has no money to make.Especially for fruit transportation, it has to be fast and good. Pan Rui's reckoning is wrong, he almost lost his underwear!So, Pan Rui approached Fang Jiming and said, "Brother Fang, if Taobao doesn't raise the price, Shunfeng will turn its profit into a loss!"

Fang Jiming was startled: "It's not that serious, is it?"

To be honest, because Shunfeng Express uses the form of franchising and only sets up one branch in each prefecture-level city, the cost is quite high.You know, many express companies have no branches at all, and all of them are franchisees.Coupled with other costs, it is reasonable that Shunfeng Express's profit is not high.

Pan Rui immediately made a calculation for Fang Jiming: "...Take a look, is this the truth?"

Fang Jiming thought for a while and said, "So, how about Taobao. After the first month, each express delivery will increase by two yuan? In this way, it shouldn't lose money, right?"

Pan Rui sighed, and said, "Actually, as long as there are enough deliveries, not only will you not lose money, but you will also make money. But what you said before, I haven't seen tens of millions of orders!"

"You have to be patient!"

Fang Jiming said, "Where can I become a big fat man with one bite?" It is true that even Ali in his previous life only made a lot of money after doing it for a few years.Only when he met a suitable opportunity did he slowly show his prominence.

Today's Taobao basically doesn't have much influence - no way, online shopping is indeed not the most mainstream way of shopping.Especially for big-ticket items, electrical appliances, valuables, etc., consumers are still used to going to stores to spend.And for some gadgets, in order to save a few dollars, you have to go to the bank to handle this and that, which is too troublesome.

Shopping online is such a hassle.

Fang Jiming was waiting for an opportunity, and of course it wasn't quick payment by mobile phone.You should know that fast payment requires a mobile phone verification code. Many people do not have a mobile phone, which does not constitute a prerequisite.Even for online banking, you need to queue up at the bank.What's more, you can only use IE browser for payment, because other web pages cannot install online banking controls.

Under this traditional payment method, the operation is so cumbersome, and the success rate is about 65%, which leads to problems such as high user loss rate and easy phishing.Therefore, the online shopping experience is not good.

Whether it is payment or trust, there is a crisis, so the e-commerce field is still quite difficult.

Otherwise, in his previous life, Ali would not have been in business for two years before finally starting to make a profit.And this profit is not e-commerce, but cross-border business.As for Taobao in the previous life, it was only at the end of 2003 that it began to surpass eBay's Chinese website.

E-commerce is difficult to do. If Alima does not start e-commerce and focuses on e-commerce, he will not be able to sustain it.Because Alima, who had obtained financing, dared to start Taobao, this is the inside story.

After all, it is difficult to do it without burning money!
Pan Rui laughed and said, "Since it took so long to make it, why are you doing it?"

Fang Jiming thought for a while and said, "People always have to do something stupid."

"Forget it, I can't talk to you. Wang Li is still in Jinhua, do you want to have a meal together?" Pan Rui said.

Fang Jiming looked at the crew not far away, and said, "I can't leave, I still have to film."

"No, we've been filming for nearly three months and haven't finished filming yet?!"

Pan Rui was a little surprised, "Isn't this your style?"

Fang Jiming said with a smile: "I found that one movie couldn't tell the story, so I made two movies."

Pan Rui: "..."

In the end, Pan Rui still couldn't have dinner with Fang Jiming.As for Wang Li, regardless of his business experience, Pan Rui, who suddenly felt that his life was like snow, became interested and wanted to visit Taobao's headquarters in Hangzhou.

Cai Hongxin did not expect Pan Rui to visit suddenly, he received Pan Rui with a pair of panda eyes.

"President Pan, why are you here?"

Taobao and Shunfeng are a cooperative relationship, and Cai Hongxin naturally understands that Pan Rui is one of the bosses.

Pan Rui laughed and said, "I heard that Brother Fang boasted that Taobao is in the sky, but not in the ground. Why don't you come and see?"

Cai Hongxin is a little unconfident. You must know that Taobao is a start-up, a small website that has just been established, except for the growing number of users, there is nothing else. "Mr. Pan, take your time, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you." Cai Hongxin shook his head, he still regarded Pan Rui as a playboy.

Pan Rui didn't have any idea, just looking at this small company with less than 40 employees, he was full of doubts.

"Such a small company can have a long-term future?"

It's not that Pan Rui looks down on Taobao, but that Taobao is really shabby.The rented office buildings are more than ten years old, and the office environment is very ordinary.Compared with Shunfeng, which had more than 300 employees at the beginning, and now has thousands of employees, Pan Rui is full of pride in comparison.Although there are only a hundred or so employees directly under Shunfeng, no matter what, there are so many people!
