Start earning money as the girl next door

In the end, the company collaborated with each other through website platforms of different natures, reaching the point where one plus one is greater than two.

Zhao Han didn't do anything to prevent the various departments from collaborating and not cooperating with each other.

For example, Tencent's big problem later was not that its external rivals were strong, but that Tencent's internal affairs were so hilly that many departments and subsidiaries were overly concerned about their ranking within the group, and compared their internal rivals to the neighboring departments compared to their external rivals. Also beware.

Sometimes, Tencent's internal companies would rather cooperate with external companies on good projects than with brother companies within their own group.

This kind of infighting... many large companies have it to some extent. For example, companies like Sony have exactly the same problem.

The major departments and factions are clearly divided. When other departments are in trouble, a group of brother companies and departments stand aside and watch.

In this regard, Zhao Han feels that management should not be about cruel internal competition rankings, but... defeating external opponents through the external market is called competence.

If the internal competition is too fierce, there will be no coordination, and you will even rather lose to external opponents than to other internal teams.

Chapter 351 Zhao Han is clairvoyant

Zhou Jie's interview went smoothly because she was very confident in her abilities... Chen Jingjing's question asked her to write "Tetris" using the programming language she was proficient in.

In fact, it is considered a small development project.Then, Zhou Jie actually completed the task within 2 hours.

"I am very proficient in writing JAVA code and can complete some tasks independently." Chen Jingjing commented, "The code written by ordinary undergraduates is probably like this."

Well, excluding undergraduates from some prestigious universities. For many undergraduates from prestigious universities, computer science is their strong point. For schools like Tsinghua University and Jiaotong University, computer science is definitely their strong point. Students with high scores are competing for computers, software, electronics, etc. related majors.

In the end, this led to the fact that computer majors in some prestigious schools not only have good foundations, but also have high-quality students. This is also the reason why many companies have no brains to recruit fresh graduates from prestigious schools.

The college entrance examination has screened you once, and the major selection has screened you again. Look at the school background. If you have the endorsement of a lot of outstanding seniors in the school, you will naturally be highly respected.

Moreover, if those who graduated from prestigious schools have abilities that do not match their academic qualifications, the recruiter does not need to take the blame, because... he has already chosen the one with the best academic qualifications. As for the other party being an idiot and a parallel importer, in such a small probability event, who can do it in advance? What do you think?

For those with poor academic qualifications, the recruiters will need to bear some consequences. If they are competent, they will recruit talents in an eclectic way. If they are not competent, the person responsible for recruiting will have to take the blame.

Executives who are afraid of taking the blame naturally tend to favor the prestigious school first model.

Of course, it would be different if it were Zhao Han. He was the boss. Even if there was a misjudgment in recruiting people and their abilities were not suitable for the position, it would just be a matter of admitting the mistake and finding another position.

What's more, if the restriction is now enforced and only those from prestigious schools are required, then the company will not be able to find many coders.

"Zhou Jie, right?" Zhao Han looked at her, "Since Jingjing said that your skills are not bad, you can report to the company after the year. Programmers, the salary is not less than 2000, and if you do well, you can get equity incentives or other rewards.”

"Thank you, boss!" Zhou Jie was very excited.

More than ten years later, people with a monthly salary of 2000 could only recruit waiters in supermarkets and restaurants. But now... programmers with a monthly salary of 2000 are within the normal salary category.

As for earning W, you still need to have a background in a prestigious school. Even if it is not a prestigious school, you must have a bachelor's degree at least.

To put it simply, now is the period of rapid development of the Internet industry. A technical secondary school student studying IT can create a higher long-term return on investment than one who invests in a postgraduate degree ten years later.

In a sense, whether a person is successful or not, in addition to ability, fate and luck still account for a large proportion!

For example, in theory, the earlier you enter the Internet industry, the better.

However, some people were unlucky. In 05, they got involved in the video website trend, killed a bunch of peers, and burned countless cash. Then they lived until 2023, and then they felt that after burning almost 20 years of money, a turnaround was just around the corner. Yes, the future is indeed bright... If I had known this, it would be better to invest the funds invested in the video industry in other directions.

This is the trick of fate!

In 05, many Internet industries were right to put traffic and users first.

The video industry is an exception. In the early days, server hardware and bandwidth costs ranked first, and later copyright costs rose to the top.

Gradually, the copyright price was also controlled, and it began to enter the stage of profitability.

This is how Zhao Han sees the world differently. It is always difficult for others to see the key to many things when they are in the middle of the situation.

Zhao Han has developed clairvoyance and can know the detours of some industries in advance.

Because Zhao Han relies on cognition to make a living, rather than simply exploiting employees' surplus labor, relatively speaking, Zhao Han is more willing to show his wisdom, open-mindedness, generosity, tolerance and other advantages.

This advantage is based on the fact that Zhao Han knows that no matter how generous he is, he will still take the biggest advantage in the end.

He has secured the lion's share of the profits, and has also built up his reputation and reputation among the employees.

As a capitalist, Zhao Han's favorite show is to criticize the actions of other capitalists and then receive a round of applause from his employees.

This is also thanks to the support of a large number of fellow capitalists who help Zhao Han manage the company so easily and support the public support.

In the evening, Jiang Xiaoru and Bai Li prepared the meals.

Zhou Hongxing and his daughter were left to eat together, and a bottle of Moutai was opened on the table.

Zhao Wei and Zhou Hongxing drank happily.

Then, Zhou Hongxing started to offend his leaders like he did when he was young, and began to give advice.

"Deputy County Magistrate He used to be my errand boy. He seized the opportunity and stepped on me to get the position. Who is he? He graduated from junior high school!" Zhou Hongxing pointed out, "The county's economic development is not good. It’s no wonder that these incompetent people, if I were the leader, the economy would have taken off long ago..."

Zhao Han, Chen Wenwen, Chen Jingjing and others finally understood what it means to drink and get into trouble.

In addition, Zhou Hongxing's words are not convincing. He must have been the deputy mayor of the town for five years, and he is actually in charge of the economy.

When I was promoted, I was still a flood-fighting hero in 98, so... the level that had not been promoted for many years finally reached a higher level.

Then, it seemed like that...

There are many reasons why the county cannot develop. For example, the geographical location is not superior enough, the administrative level is not high, etc., and there is a lack of various policy supports.

If the geographical location is connected to rivers and seas and has important transportation routes, it will naturally be easy to develop.

Administrative level is closely related to university resources, etc. If your level is not high enough, you cannot have a university. The problem without a university is that the local young population will continue to be sucked away by cities with universities. Then, you will not have a demographic dividend, but a negative demographic dividend. .

In addition, without university resources, many high-end industries related to university R&D and talents cannot be settled.We can’t eat the cake of talent dividend either.

Well, in fact, if the local government has the courage to sell the iron, give priority to the county's resources to study the Internet these days, and introduce Internet companies to the local area regardless of the cost, it may seize this wave of the largest dividends in the world. .

Local governments scrimped on food and clothing, put financial pressure on certain industries, and developed them in a bitter-then-sweet style. This was the reason for the later success of the provincial capital.

But...in this day and age, until there is a successful stud case in Badu, the local government will not dare to follow suit!

Badu Venture Capital’s experience actually involved gambling, and the gamble turned out to be a win.As a result, all parts of the province later actively learned from Badu's experience, trying to develop a rising industry and achieve overtaking in a corner.

But...many people who study Badu fail to think of one problem. After all, Badu has the University of Science and Technology of China and a bunch of university resources.

Other imitation places do not meet this condition.

Chapter 352 Honey

After sending Zhou Hongxing, Zhou Jie and his daughter away, Zhao Han thought for a while... donating money to build roads in the town and recruiting a few people for the company can only solve the town's economic problems.

Even if it is, such as picking tea leaves or even building a tea factory, various links will probably solve the employment problem of a few hundred people at most.

After thinking about it, Zhao Han still felt that it is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish. After the roads in the town are repaired, express logistics can be introduced in the name of the company to provide supporting services to the town.

Then, the tea products are shipped directly in the town, handed over to the express logistics network, and then distributed to all parts of the country.

After the express company has settled in, actually... there is an infrastructure for e-commerce in the town.

After more than ten years of working as an e-commerce company in the town, Chen Wenwen started doing some agricultural products, wood carving, etc. when he was live-streaming goods.

In addition to tea, the agricultural products also include honey... The town is sparsely populated and has a natural forest reserve. Naturally, there are also some local products such as honey.

Zhao Han worked in the company of the fat boss who was not a human being for ten years, and his main business was actually dealing with agricultural products.The difference in information and price is the key to making money.

Sometimes, the market price is ridiculously expensive, and the purchase price from the country of origin is ridiculously cheap.

The fat boss is afraid that people will open up the upstream and downstream channels. He usually controls the source, origin and market channels of a product, which are controlled by different employees.

By the time it's done, prices may have fluctuated and previous arbitrage opportunities no longer exist.

High risk, fleeting...

Because the difference between the market price and retail price of agricultural products is outrageous, and once you understand the information gaps across all channels, the arbitrage space may disappear and your efforts will be in vain.

Therefore, the fat boss is also confident. The main reason is that he has many resources and has a lot of product information.If one product can't benefit from the price difference caused by the information gap, just eat another one.

As time goes by, in fact, the information that the fat boss later mastered may have become outdated and biased. In fact, his operations have become very outdated and cannot keep up with the times.

Understand the price difference between the two channels?Then, ancient merchants began to practice the practice of charging the price difference.

In the information age...the more advanced information becomes, the more difficult it becomes to achieve such low-level price differences and poor information.

But...it was still possible in 05!

Ordinary people rarely pay attention to the difference between the origin price and retail price of an agricultural product, and they don't think about how to open up channels and earn the price difference.

For Zhao Han, this is not easy.

You know the two phone numbers of the supplier who knows the place of origin and the market channel dealer. You know, the price difference that the other party doesn't know, and you can operate from it, it will be a huge profit margin.

But if Zhao Han does it now, he won't be so low.

Instead, you only need to look at the price of the place of origin and the market price. You can refer to the Taobao price. Anyway, if you can't find a retail channel, you can sell it through your own e-commerce channel and you can sell it.

No way, you can open your own offline retail store. As long as the price difference is enough, you can make money through self-operated retail and branding.

"Aunt Jiang, how much is the unadulterated natural honey from bees raised in the town per kilogram?" Zhao Han suddenly asked.

The reason why I asked about honey is because it has a long shelf life.The shelf life of real honey is that honey from thousands of years ago is still edible.

Of course, the National Food Safety Law stipulates that it shall not exceed 2 years.Let’s just say two years. The shelf life of two years is much longer than the average agricultural industry.

The biggest problem with ordinary agricultural products is the shelf life. After picking fresh vegetables, selling them in the local market is the most environmentally friendly.

If it is cross-regional sales, if it is too far away, a lot of cost will have to be invested in freshness, and the cost is not easy to control.

Products with a long shelf life can be used as ordinary e-commerce products and sold throughout the country through e-commerce.

"The price of honey is not very valuable. In the 90s, it was purchased by an exporter for 6 yuan per kilogram. There are more beekeepers in other places and the export competition is fierce. It has even dropped. It only costs 4 yuan per kilogram." Jiang Xiaoru thought about it. I thought, "By the way, ask your dad about this, he knows better than me."

Zhao Han looked at Zhao Wei.

Zhao Wei's face turned red and he said: "I just lost a few thousand yuan, not much, just a few thousand yuan! I won't be fooled by this anymore!"

"Bah! You are still in business, and you helped others collect honey without even giving them a deposit. They paid 5 yuan per kilogram for the honey, and they bought it for 4 yuan per kilogram. You then gave the money back to start the business, and you want to be the owner of this family. It's all been ruined a long time ago." Bai Li couldn't help complaining, "What a bullshit elementary school classmate, who imported it for Xiaoli, so deceptive!"

"There is a serious surplus of domestically exported honey, and the price has dropped sharply. The lowest price is 3 yuan per kilogram. I think the loss is small." Zhao Wei couldn't help but defended, "Jiang Chaoyue has also suffered a loss himself, so he is willing to pay 4 yuan." Buy one kilogram of my goods, otherwise, if they leave with a pat on the back, who will I sell to?"

"Which one, honey that costs a few yuan per kilogram, is it really local honey? Is there any problem with the quality?" Zhao Han asked.

"There is a fart problem. Exporting to the EU is no problem. In the past few years, antibiotics in the EU must meet certain standards and must not exceed the standards.

And bees will give birth to bugs, which will eat the wings of the bees. It is impossible to kill the bugs without using some medicine.

Then, after expert guidance, antibiotic-containing liquid was injected a few months in advance. When it came time to collect honey, no liquid liquid was applied for several months. After some technical modifications, the honey was in line with EU standards, and it was exported for a period of time.

Then, there is a surplus of domestic honey farming, and the price is extremely high! "

Zhao Wei started to think about it later and said non-stop, "I finally understand, foreign devils and ghosts, let you export first and give orders.

In the past, the price of honey in the 80s and 90s was higher than it is now.

When you have a surplus of honey and become dependent on the other party's market, they will choose the one with the lowest price and let domestic beekeepers compete with each other for the lowest price.

The lowest prices are in line with other people's standards. We sell honey at a loss, and the price of honey is even lower than that of white sugar! "

"Oh!" Zhao Han said after hearing this, "Sister Wenwen, how much is the price of honey on Taobao? Well, by the way, let's search for the price of honey in Europe and the United States!"

Chen Wenwen went to the study room and looked at the Taobao prices on the computer browser. Then, when he came back, he said with a surprised look: "Basically, it's 31 bottles! Roughly 350 grams, 400 grams, 460 grams, 500 grams, 600 They are all priced at this price...generally more than 20 yuan, and rarely lower than this price. If there are, they do not include free shipping!"

"Hmm..." Zhao Han then asked Bai Li, "Mom, does our grocery store sell honey?"

"Sell it! It's 15 yuan a bottle. It's bottled, branded honey. It's different from the unpackaged honey in town." Bai Li thought for a while and said, "It's not easy to sell!"

Chapter 353 Huge Price Difference

"That's inevitable! There are local beekeepers. The honey is natural and unadulterated, and the price is still low. You can buy it at home for 5 yuan a pound!" Zhao Wei said, "I told you not to buy bottled honey. It can’t be sold here!”

"It's smarter than you idiot, buying a few tons of honey!" Bai Li couldn't help but get angry.

Zhao Wei was immediately frightened and quickly made begging and self-reflection actions.

Everyone couldn't help but laugh. Zhao Wei has been a coward and a loser in recent years.All kinds of fantastic business ideas, one by one fails.

On the other hand, the family's small business has never suffered any losses in several shops.

This is the dream of some middle-aged people. They always want to do a big business, but in the end, they don't realize that they don't have the ability.

"Have you seen the price of honey in Europe and the United States? I mean, the retail price in their consumer market." Zhao Han asked.

"I looked at some foreign prices. In retail channels such as New Zealand, Europe, and the United States, mature honey generally costs tens of dollars. Royal jelly is made into capsules, and a bottle of 100 capsules sells for 99 dollars a bottle!" Chen Wenwen said.

Generally speaking, this is the reason why developed countries in Europe and the United States live a good life. The comparative advantage is to compare prices around the world, and products with relatively low technical content are encouraged to produce more. If you produce more, you can suppress your prices.Since there are various local standards and barriers, you can only sell products to brand owners through local brand cooperation.
