I Have 100 Million Stores

Chapter 279 Rejecting Ants!

"Mr. Cao, what do you mean?" Liu Ting, who was on the side, couldn't help asking before she could react.

"The other party obviously doesn't want to compete with us in the field of food delivery!" Cao Xingyu said happily:

"Or, they want us to fight with Mei Tuan first, and sit on the mountain to watch the tigers fight to see the situation."

"At the same time, they didn't want to just watch and do nothing, so they wanted to make a small investment in us first."

"Cooperate with us on another level, which is an important part that is currently missing in our Shiwang brand APP-online payment!"

"Ah?" Liu Ting was obviously taken aback.

This time, it was obvious that their own side entered the other side's food delivery field, forming a direct competitive relationship.

How can it be related to cooperation?

"It is to connect their Alipay to our platform, so that our members can recharge online through Alipay." After Cao Xingyu explained casually, he sighed:

"I have to admit, Ari is really good at planning!"

"This move is amazing!"

"If we are suppressed by Mei Tuan this time, they will come out in all likelihood and go to grab the Sansha market with Mei Tuan."

"And if we win against Mei Tuan, then the small investment they made in us in advance will yield unexpected big gains!"

"The first harvest is equivalent to opening up a new market in the field of online payment, and their market share in the field of payment will continue to increase as we grow."

"Secondly, with the first cooperation and the establishment of a good relationship, there will naturally be a second time. Maybe in the end, seeing our good development momentum, they will think about investing in us, and according to their investment Inertia, you may even think about buying our Shiwang Group in its entirety, which is not necessarily the case.”

"In other words, if we really win Meituan, I think they will even be willing to give us the takeaway market and give us more room for development."

"One thing to say, it's really courageous. The takeaway market discards it as soon as it says it."

"The series of rumors about Ahri were just rumors, but now it seems that the rumors are really true."

"In order to ensure the development and growth of the core business, the status of other businesses is obviously a few grades lower."

"Just like this time, even though we entered the food delivery field and posed a direct threat to them, they turned a blind eye and sent Ant Financial to discuss cooperation instead."

"Something!"

After all, Cao Xingyu is a software major, and his interest in network research is much higher than that of ordinary people, especially looking at the development history of those giants. It was his second favorite hobby besides playing games on the Internet when he was in school.

Therefore, he has a certain degree of personal understanding of Ali's understanding and investment style.

Based on this, he immediately understood the real intention of the other party, and at the same time, his understanding of Ari was strengthened invisibly.

"Eh..." Liu Ting seemed to understand a little bit, with a confused look on her face.

After all, she doesn't know much about Internet giants,

So she was kind of incomprehensible.

The market doesn't want it?

How can there be such a company?

"In fact, the reason is very simple. It is faster and easier to get money from e-commerce." Seeing Liu Ting's confusion, Cao Xingyu explained with great interest:

"Do you know what is the most profitable business on the Internet?"

"It's nothing more than advertisements and games!"

"These two are currently the most profitable businesses on the entire Internet, and the profits are also the most astonishing and exaggerated!"

"If you think about it, you should know that in addition to the initial investment in research and development, the game basically doesn't need to spend too much energy after it is officially launched. It is enough to maintain a technical team for maintenance and upgrading. It doesn't cost much in this regard. gone."

"And as long as there is traffic injection, as long as the game quality is excellent, then the game will have a high probability of becoming a hit! At that time, the company can lie down and make money, and make a lot of money every day!"

"The most typical representative in this respect is the penguin!"

"It's like the year-end bonus of the dead pesticide team has been issued for 100 months!"

"Although the rumor may not be true, since it can be spread, it should be not bad. Even if it has not been a hundred months, it is probably not too bad."

"From this you can imagine how exaggerated the profit is."

"100-month year-end award?" Hearing this, Liu Ting exclaimed in surprise.

Of course she knows about Pesticide of the Dead, and many friends around her are playing it, whether they are in their thirties or early twenties, and even her 11-year-old nephew will play this game with his mobile phone whenever he is at home on vacation.

One can imagine how popular this game is.

What Liu Ting didn't expect was, is the game so profitable?

What is the concept of a 100-month year-end bonus? It is equivalent to a person's salary for 8 years of normal work!

Even the year-end bonus is so perverted, so the usual quarterly bonus must be expensive!

"How lucky to be able to join the team of the dead man's pesticide. It is estimated that they usually spend less time on the dead man's pesticide than my little nephew!" Thinking of this, Liu Ting couldn't help but mutter.

"Pfft..." Cao Xingyu laughed and said, "You're right, this is almost the truth."

"When a game goes online and enters the profit-making period, the follow-up technical team really doesn't have much to do, that is, maintenance, updates and upgrades, and various updates focus on how to stimulate consumption."

"Well, I've learned, Mr. Cao, you know a lot!" Liu Ting sighed involuntarily.

"Hehe." Cao Xingyu smiled indifferently, and continued:

"In addition to games, advertising is also huge profits."

"Different from advertisements in traditional industries, Internet advertisements are less costly, and the methods are simpler and more straightforward."

"Ari's e-commerce business is essentially selling advertisements to merchants on the platform. This is also the closest to money and the most profitable business on the Internet."

"And in this regard, Ari almost does not need to spend any cost. It only needs to simply give merchants better display locations, event locations, etc., and they can easily earn a lot of money."

"Its profits are so high that it is not too much to call it a daily profit. Its income is simply not comparable to what you are hungry for."

"It's no exaggeration to say that if you're hungry, you've worked hard for a year, and it's not even worth Ahri's net profit for a month or two."

"It is conceivable from this that Ahri's core strategy will naturally revolve around e-commerce."

"Just like right now, although we have a strong momentum, the other party doesn't want to end easily. They don't want to waste unnecessary funds on this small business."

"Especially with the existence of Meituan, the three-party competition will undoubtedly increase the cost even more, which is obviously not what they want to see."

"Tell me the most direct and clear data in this regard, and you will understand."

"Ele.me's market share was the highest in the entire food delivery field before, but after Ari took over, the market share of Are'e.me fell again and again, and finally gave up the market leader to Meituan Waimai."

"The core reason is that Ahri's original intention of acquiring Hungry Ele is to get its traffic and directly introduce the traffic to the core business."

"They don't want to spend too much money on this takeaway, so when faced with Mei Tuan's pressing force, they just blindly defend and never think about attacking. In this case, the market is fully It is completely reasonable for the plum ball that opened fire to devour it step by step."

"From this, you should know that Ari's attitude towards Are you hungry is actually to use it as a traffic tool to attract traffic to the core e-commerce business."

"I understand..." After Cao Xingyu's explanation, Liu Ting nodded, with a dazed expression, and grinned, "Then it looks like this is a great thing for us!"

"Not only is there one less competitor for the time being, but it can also fill the vacancy of our APP online payment!"

"More importantly, if we can directly become a partner with Ahri, there are still many intangible benefits for us!"

"Is this a problem..." Hearing this, Cao Xingyu pondered, considering the feasibility of this matter.

The benefits of cooperation are obvious.

After the payment function is enabled, it will immediately facilitate the recharge needs of Shiwang brand members on the online APP in the future, and fill in the online payment function that is currently missing in the Shiwang APP.

At the same time, Alipay is a top app with a high popularity, and its acceptance by users is very high, so there is no need to introduce and promote it to members in the future.

This is also a clear advantage.

"However, the disadvantages are also obvious!" Cao Xingyu muttered in his heart.

One is that after reaching an agreement with Alipay, the data of both parties must be exchanged to a certain extent or bound and authorized.

In other words, if there is a cooperation, the exclusive member data of the Shiwang brand in the future will have no secrets in front of Alipay!

Don't underestimate these data. In the era of big data, the value that data can exert is far beyond ordinary.

Second, the payment scenario is one of the four future scenarios that Cao Xingyu conceived in his mind.

If Alipay is introduced at this time, it is tantamount to cultivating the habit of using Alipay among Shiwang members.

This will cause a lot of trouble for Cao Xingyu when he wants to promote his payment tool in the future!

The pros and cons are pretty obvious!

Cao Xingyu began to weigh in his heart:

"Nowadays, the entry threshold for online payment is getting higher and higher. If you want to do it yourself, you have to get a license first, and then the development of the program, which also involves the most important payment security, popularization and many other things."

"All in all, the cost of this matter will be quite high! And it will be a long-term project!"

"Judging from the current size and planning of Shiwang Group, there is definitely no way to do this in the short term! It's not that there is no such funds, but that there is no need to disperse funds when the amount of funds in the early stage is not huge. .”

"I definitely won't do this now."

"What we need to consider now is how important online payment is to us now? Should we connect to Alipay and deal with it first?"

After Cao Xingyu pondered for a while, he raised his eyebrows: "It seems that it's not that important for the time being!"

"Different from other Internet companies, it would be very inconvenient if they did not have online payment, but our Shiwang brand has so many offline stores, and there are quite enough recharge points."

"Although it is undeniable that there is no online payment, it will be a little troublesome, but it is not in a state that will affect the business!"

"So you don't have to worry at all!"

"After all, the sequelae of introducing payment are too great!"

"Payment data, in particular, is so important. Not only can we see a person's consumption ability and consumption habits, but also form a personal credit system after the continuous accumulation of consumption data!"

"And with the credit system, there will be more things that can be done around this in the future."

"This is the core value of payment software!"

"Although it is possible to use Alipay for a while and kick the other party out later, it may not be so simple at that time. After all, the user's habits have been developed, and when the time comes to change suddenly, it will give people a bad feeling, or even resistance. .”

"Ari will not be kicked out of the game so easily by you, it will definitely cause stumbling blocks or cause trouble."

"All of these have obviously laid some unnecessary pitfalls for future payment scenarios."

"The key is that the payment scenario is the core point that will play a supporting role in the four major scenarios of Shiwang brand in the future, so it's better to be safe in this area. Even if there is a slight inconvenience in the early stage, it will be supported."

"Anyway, there are offline stores that support recharge, so it's better not to launch online payment at all, and draw a clear line with the other party from the beginning!"

"What's more, the Shiwang brand also has an e-commerce scene. In the future, it will form the most direct competitive relationship with Ali..."

Thinking of this, Cao Xingyu already had a decision in his mind.

"Let them please come back!" Cao Xingyu told the girl at the front desk:

"You tell them directly and clearly that we have no intention of cooperating!"

"Uh, okay!" The receptionist nodded, turned and left.

"Mr. Cao, such a good cooperation opportunity seems to be quite good for us. Should we just refuse it like this?"

"Yes." Cao Xingyu nodded.

"This..." Liu Ting pursed her lips and couldn't help but say:

"Mr. Cao, that is Ant Financial, one of Ahri's cores!"

"If we can cooperate with them, it will definitely be of great help to our development."

"Besides, I think cooperation or non-cooperation will be put aside for now. Wouldn't it be a bit too offensive to drive people away without even seeing each other?"

"There is nothing to offend." Hearing this, Cao Xingyu immediately chuckled and said, "Since refusing to be hungry, shouldn't we offend others?"

"Sooner or later."

"Okay, I won't say much about this matter." Cao Xingyu waved his hand, in other words:

"There are a few things, you go and arrange them."

"Oh, yes, Mr. Cao, please tell me." Hearing this, Liu Ting did not insist and listened.

"First thing, the consulting service can start to recruit the second batch of investors." Cao Xingyu knocked on the table and said lightly.
