Rebirth of Northern Technology

Chapter 496: E-commerce (Part 1)

The second one was displayed, a set of merchandise reservation system customized for the logistics department.

Below the logistics department, there are several shops for students. One of them is next to the school hospital and mainly sells some daily necessities such as washbasins and rice bowls.

The original intention of the merchandise reservation system is to provide inventory management for the logistics department. With the establishment of the campus LAN, it was opened to the instructors of various departments to order various bulk items, such as military uniforms and bed sheets for freshmen.

Slowly, this function was opened up to the monitors of professional classes to book textbooks and test papers. It was well received by all parties.

With the passage of time, coupled with the whim of a few graduate students, it was opened to students who can access the Internet. You can make reservations for some hot items. Then students can actually purchase and pay with their student ID numbers.

"This software is interesting, can its use range continue to expand?"

Cheng Yongxing raised his hand and interrupted the explanation that he was about to change the topic.

Although this product reservation system does not have a payment function, it already has the embryonic form of e-commerce. At this time, eBay, Amazon, the originator of e-commerce, don't know where they are.

————————

"What does it mean to expand?"

The explanation on stage was a graduate student who did not go home. Due to the holiday, the project developer is not present, and he has little knowledge of the project.

"There are two ways to expand, one is to expand the platform to more schools. Anyway, you are going to be online."

"You mean, sell this platform to the logistics department of other schools? This software is open source, and they can build their own systems."

Teacher Wang Fengli interjected. At this stage, everyone's thinking about software is still selling products.

It's okay to sell to laymen. Anyway, these social customers don't understand, as long as it is easy to use. But selling it to your own people is a bit too much.

"It's not selling software, but letting the store of the logistics department do business to other schools. Students in other schools can also order goods through it. The meaning of this expansion is not to sell systems, but to sell services."

College students are high-quality customers with good family conditions, and many are willing to spend money. Unfortunately, in this era, few people can realize this.

"How is this possible? How could the logistics system of other schools allow it? They also have their own stores. In addition, it is not realistic for their students to come to us to pick up the goods."

Director Chen, as the representative of the Logistics Department, came to cheer for the results conference. Did not expect that there is still his business.

"This is just a suggestion. For your reference. First, you can engage in a benefit-sharing, or simply cooperate with several logistics departments on this project."

This suggestion was immediately written down on paper. With Minister Liu joining Optoelectronics, the impact of Optoelectronics on the logistics department has increased.

"The other one, through this platform, you can sell something that you didn't dare to sell before."

"such as?"

"For example, single player, shortwave radio, etc."

The store on campus sells a lot of daily miscellaneous goods. The main products are storage-resistant products, such as washbasins, school bags, bed sheets and the like. One class of students did not sell it, and it will be sold again next year.

And some high-margin, high-risk products, such as stand-alone machines, are not dared to purchase at all.

Electronic goods are highly profitable and risky.

Even Cheng Yongxing needs a rebirth to solve the regret of buying the wrong player.

The most high-end merchandise sold in the store is the end of the tape at best.

"These high-priced products are sold according to the order model. That is to say, how many students order, and how many goods you will get from the manufacturer. There are profits and no risks. How good is this?"

In this era, the profits in the field of commodity circulation are amazing. A simple single player, from the factory to the final consumer, will go through multiple dealers.

In response to this situation, three offline business model changes have been born successively. The first time was that the public distribution agency system was replaced by the manufacturer's own multi-layer agency system, the second time was a professional electrical store represented by Gome and Suning, and the third time was a giant supermarket represented by RT-Mart, China Resources and Carrefour. chain.

"Yeah. If so, I really did it."

The profit margin of small appliances is coveted by everyone.

When opening a store, the most feared thing is to suppress goods. Once the funds are deposited, they lose circulation.

Adopting the traditional model, it needs advanced goods, not to mention the cost, but also takes up the working capital. Once the purchase of such high-priced goods goes wrong, the loss is permanent.

Moreover, the southerners have a good level of research. As soon as this procurement hole is opened, the control is not strict. As soon as fake and inferior products come in, the store is not far from bankruptcy.

After a few losses, no one is willing to take this risk. Not doing good, doing more wrong.

In addition, many counters in the store have been reserved for personal operation. This new business model does not occupy funds, the risk is still small, and it does not conflict with the existing over-the-counter business.

"I want to go back and report to the leader."

The position of the head of the logistics department was vacant, and a bunch of people were staring. Whoever can make some achievements will have a chance.

————————

"In addition, the ordering model can also be made into direct payment. In this way, risks in operation can be further avoided."

In the ordering system, there is still the risk of users defaulting.

"How do you pay for this? How do the students pay for the computer?"

A group of teachers from the Department of Computer Science are all interested. They are very interested in adding new features. Around these projects, they did not publish anything less.

"Isn't the school cafeteria going to get a meal card soon? Students use the balance in the meal card to pay, isn't it enough?"

With the passage of time, magnetic cards have also spread from the telecommunications field to other systems. The age of meal tickets and money tickets is slowly withdrawing.

"Yes, you can consider it."

The real-name system of meal cards is not a difficult thing, at least there are no principle obstacles.

The talent fund and the open source software fund basically have to act like Yongxing's face. Now that the big boss who paid the money has spoken, why should I show some face?

The logistics department is also optimistic about this. Do not look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha. In this critical period, at least don't leave a bad impression on the old leader.

In addition, as the Whampoa Military Academy of the Optoelectronics Cadre System, the Logistics Department still has to do innocuous things.

————————

Due to PlanB's special influence, soon, the logistics systems of several colleges and universities in Bingcheng established a new entity by way of equity participation to operate this "Campus Online Supermarket".

Due to the large amount of purchases and the direct purchase of goods from manufacturers or provincial agents, the prices of small electrical appliances sold on the platform are more than 15% lower than market retail, which is very popular with students.

The economic and social benefits of this platform are beyond the expectations of all parties.

Even the residents around the school have deliberately changed the school meal card in order to enjoy the so-called "special price for students."

With word of mouth, the influence of online supermarket platforms is growing. In the end, not only Bingcheng itself, but also many retailers in surrounding counties and cities, also went to this online store to purchase goods.

The influence of online shopping malls has expanded to Chuncheng and Fengtian with the opening of Tietong Optical Fiber.

...

"Let's talk down. Let's talk about the details of the project after the meeting."

Director Liu stopped the heated discussion.

Everyone at the meeting did not realize what kind of monster this simple software would become in the future.
