Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

The heads of each department of Time Jumei began to report on their work, mainly to prepare for the three-year rotation, and the purpose of the rotation should be explained more clearly, and rotation should not be done just for the sake of rotation.

The important business departments of Time Jumei are: e-commerce retail, warehousing and logistics, private brands, financial services, cloud computing and search, and social entertainment.

No middle platform can be used in all departments, so the internal middle platform of Time Jumei has evolved into several versions. Different departments have their own characteristics, but there are incompatibility issues.

"Are they trying to form a small circle, or is it really necessary?" Qu Li didn't understand and asked Lin Bing, the founder of Zhongtai

"At the beginning, I might have wanted to make something special, but as I continued to do it, I lost my shape..."

"So that's how it is, can it be changed?" Qu Li asked

"Of course." Lin Bing replied

The center is not the focus. It is not difficult to dismantle and rebuild. What they are discussing is cloud computing. Shiguangjumei Financing has invested heavily in overseas e-commerce and cloud computing business.

Qu Li initially thought that there was not much difference between Time Cloud and Amazon AWS, but later he did not expect that it was not as good as Microsoft Azure. If Google adjusted, would it be beaten to death again? So I had to invest more, and instead of just waiting for death, I might as well actively seek death.

Establishing R\u0026D centers overseas is either to increase the technical ceiling or to make adjustments for localization. Silicon Valley companies face the global market as soon as they are established. This is something that Time Jumei cannot match in any case, but it does not prevent them from taking advantage of American scientific and technological talents. .

On the other hand, in terms of self-research and integration, China focuses on self-research, while foreign countries tend to integrate cooperation, that is, integrating software and services from well-known companies such as Oracle and SAP.

There is also the need to increase ecological partners, open up and share benefits, and let partners do things that are not convenient for Time Jumei to do. For example, some large companies want to cooperate with Guangguang Cloud and visit their companies. All kinds of entertainment services, gifts, etc. are the responsibility of the partners. There are also various highly customized services that can be handed over to partners.

To put it bluntly, it means raising white gloves, leaving all the dirty work to others, and there are overgrown weeds beside the big trees. For example, Alibaba Cloud only has a hospitality fee of 200 yuan per person, while Juhua Cloud has a dedicated team responsible for hosting, and provides its own mobile phones and accessories (smart watches, headphones, drones, etc.) to project leaders and interface people (internal and external coordinators) ).

As a Chinese company, Quli has always been accustomed to exploring mature markets with sound rule of law. Everything must be done according to the rules of the game. As long as you are familiar with this set of rules and can adapt to the environment here, it is easy to make money.

After Honor cheats open the US market through T-mobile, funds and profits roll in. After entering the European, Japanese and Korean markets, there is no longer a shortage of money. The profits earned in mature markets in Europe and the United States are much higher than in China. Who can buy 79 yuan if you don’t have money...

But cloud computing is different and has strong competitors, so it chooses to establish its own base in China and Southeast Asia, which may include Russia and the Middle East in the future. That’s why he wants to build the Pacific Ocean submarine optical cable, and now he wants to build the Asia-Pacific and European submarine optical cables.

Qu Li chatted with them. So far, although there are various regrets: the search business is not satisfactory, Juhuasuan is never strong, Shijiang Jumei everyone has clear goals, and they have not been lost because of falling behind. Don’t let your achievements stop you.

Juhuasuan, which Dadongzi is responsible for, even though they have lowered the threshold and waived commissions for agricultural products e-commerce, they still encountered various difficulties. For example, Taobao has made greater moves. As their strategic project, they have launched village shopping activities with local governments. Teach users in rural areas how to shop and establish a collection site, which is the rural version of Cainiao Station.

Juhuasuan did not invest much in rural projects, and Dadongzi did not apply for additional projects. Maybe he had no idea. He concentrated on building the "Jufactory" brand and provided a large number of high-quality sellers, factory stores, etc. for Jumei and Shopee.

Compared with previous years, Juhuasuan has actually developed. However, compared with Taobao, the largest e-commerce platform in China, Jumei, which has already occupied many advantages on the mobile side, is still a little bit behind. Maybe it is too different. It's too small.

The mobile phone Jumei that Jiang Fan is responsible for is almost on par with mobile Taobao, and mobile shopping accounts for an increasing share. Therefore, Alibaba and Taobao are also in a difficult situation. At the beginning of the year, it was impossible to confront the State Administration for Industry and Commerce without hidden dangers.

We all know that China has been promoting consumption upgrades in recent years, hoping that people will spend more. Taobao's biggest advantage over Jumei is its low price. How can it give up this advantage when competition is intense? But with the success of Honor, no one in China knows the importance of profits, and no one wants to be high-end. Taobao has never stopped supporting Tianmao. Even now, Taobao is attracting traffic to Tianmao.

Unable to let go of the high-end, but unwilling to give up the low-end, we could only increase investment, place advertisements on TV stations, and cooperate with film and television companies, which overwhelmed Juhuasuan. It has no impact on Jumei. Jumei Logistics fully covers self-operated products and most brand flagship stores, and implements same-day/next-day delivery in first- and second-tier cities, which greatly improves user experience.

Therefore, when it comes to consumption upgrading, Jumei is the best choice. Taobao and Tianmao are not without opportunities. Alibaba has increased its shares in Tongda Network many times. Jumei has dropped to less than 25%. Tongda small stations will be rolled out across the country this year. , improving the user experience of express delivery.

Later, there were always people who were critical and thought that door-to-door delivery by the courier department harmed their interests. But don’t forget that any high-quality service comes with a price. Most Chinese people would rather pick up their goods at Cainiao Station than pay extra to use SF Express.

If you don’t believe it, look at Pinxixi’s tens of billions of subsidies. It may be that the price difference between a product worth several thousand yuan and Goudong is less than 50 yuan, so they give up a better delivery and after-sales service experience. These users are willing to pay an extra 10 yuan for door-to-door delivery. Postage?

Whether it is Cainiao Station or Tongda Station, they are both products that are in line with the interests of most e-commerce consumers and have brought the user experience of social express delivery and Jumei Logistics closer.

In general, Ali Taobao has made progress, but there are also problems. Counterfeit goods, low-quality and low-priced goods, and difficulties in safeguarding rights have all eroded their credibility. For example, consumers can buy products at a slightly lower price than genuine ones. If you really want to return branded products, you will run into a lot of trouble.

Shiguang Jumei also has a similar problem of difficult returns, but returns for its self-operated products are easy, and you can also pick up the goods at your door. The difference between one place and another place can be made up. Taobao is not so lucky, because apart from the price, there is no comparison. An excellent place where time gathers beauty.

In the past few years, during the 6*18 and Double Eleven promotions, the number of Taobao and Alipay crashes far exceeded that of Jumei Jupay. This was related to the user scale of both parties at the time, but Shiguang Jumei mainly promoted their cloud computing, so It is generally believed that Time Jumei’s technology is superior.

This is not false. Time Cloud has now begun to develop its own chips for artificial intelligence and cloud computing.
