Chapter 386: Home appliance supermarket chain
Xinlang.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that you have seen the earning power of online games. Huanyu Technology's other game is the popularity of go-karts, so I won't say much about it. We have tried to enter the online game market before, but failed. But if one failure makes us stop trying, that's not our Shin Lang style. β
"I have decided to enter the field of online games in the future, and if there is any objection, you can put forward your own suggestions. β
"Well, if no one objects, that's in favor. β
Cao Guowei was rare and domineering, and announced his entry into the online game business to Xinlang and other high-level executives.
"Of course, although we are into the online game segment, we can't lose the rest of our business. Although the voice business has been rectified once, the profit is still very considerable, and we should go all out to promote it. β
"As for the search business, you can stop for a moment. β
"The instant messaging business has not made much progress, and we are considering laying off some members. β
In order to enter the online game, Cao Guowei also streamlined the various businesses of Xinlang.
Although Xinlang is a well-known Internet company in China, it does not have to do any business.
Xinlang has always wanted to intervene in various Internet businesses before, after all, the potential of each business can not only be seen by other Internet tycoons, but also by them. For this reason, they have entered the field of instant messaging, the development of search engines, and even the launch of Xinlang Music, but unfortunately, these businesses are not doing well.
Of course, it's okay if these businesses don't do well, and there are a lot of things that need to be adhered to.
But persistence requires money.
Xinlang relies on a portal for blood transfusion, where can it withstand it.
Besides, the portal is not particularly profitable, but it is better than Sohu and NetEase.
The most lucrative are online games.
Huanyu Technology's model is to use online games to make money while promoting a series of other businesses.
I have to say that this model is very scientific.
Even if they are not particularly specialized in other aspects of the business, such as search engines. But because of the support of online games, they can also fight with Baidu for many rounds.
"Chen Tong, you seem to have an opinion?"
Seeing that the editor-in-chief of Xinlang.com was about to speak, Cao Guowei asked.
"Mr. Cao, I have no opinion, but I think the core business of our Xinlang is the portal, and we should put the most important strength on the portal. β
"Haven't we always been like this?"
Cao Guowei said: "Entering the field of online games does not conflict with our continued portal business as the core, can't we do anything else as a portal website?"
"Mr. Cao, I don't mean that, I mean, our portal business can continue to dig. β
Chen Tong has been paying attention to the progress of the YY portal recently, although the YY portal is completely inferior to their Xinlang, but the YY portal has a YY instant messenger, and it will definitely be the strongest opponent of Xinlang in the future.
"Oh, tell me. β
"The core of our Xinlang portal is the portal, and the core of the portal is the content. In this, including Xinlang current affairs, financial news, sports news, we have done a very good job in these areas. However, now that users are more and more diverse about news, all types of users have their own unique news needs. For example, in the area of entertainment stars, we should continue to exert our efforts, and in addition, we are not doing well enough in the military column......"
I have to say that Chen Tong, as the editor-in-chief of Xinlang, has a lot of experience in content operation.
Several suggestions put forward at this time are very pertinent.
If these sections are done well, Chen Tong believes that even if Huanyu Technology comes, there is nothing to worry about.
"Chen Tong, your suggestion is very good. β
Cao Guowei nodded constantly: "You are a master of the content of the portal, and you are responsible for all of this." β
"But ......"
"But what?"
"Mr. Cao, these sections need a sum of money. β
"Money......"
Saying this, Cao Guowei was silent all of a sudden.
It's not that Xinlang has no money.
The main reason is that Xinlang's funds are also very tight.
In particular, he has decided to re-enter the online game segment, and the initial investment is also very large.
"There is no problem with the funds, I can give you an approval of 5 million in advance. β
"5 million?"
Chen Tong vomited blood.
Where is 5 million enough.
"What, not enough?"
Cao Guowei said: "Chen Tong, our Xinlang is the first portal, and the first portal should naturally have the strength of the first portal. In the face of competition from other websites, do we Xinlang rely on throwing money to compete with them. β
"Mr. Cao, I'll do my best. β
The words have come to this point, Chen Tong will not say more.
......
Hangzhou City.
"Wang Chang, what's the situation on Gome's side?"
"Mr. Chen, Huang Guangyu rejected our shareholding. β
"Where's Suning?"
Suning is said to have found investors and is only willing to accept a small number of shares. β
"A small number of shares are not good, although we don't need a controlling stake, but we have to be able to speak. What about Dazhong Electric?"
"Dazhong Electric is mainly in North City, and they are more cautious about their expansion plans. β
"Zhang Dazhong is too cautious. β
Chen Yu frowned from time to time.
Since sending Huang Zheng to Hangzhou, Chen Yu has laid out e-commerce.
First of all, it is natural to set up an e-commerce team in Hangzhou.
The team is well formed, because 5173 has been doing e-commerce business before, but the scale is not very large, and now it is just expanding the business.
The focus is not on this, the focus is on the planning of the entire industry.
The market that Chen Yu wants to lay out is naturally the same as Mr. Ma's C2C model.
However, Mr. Ma's Taobao and eBay have already taken the first step, and Chen Yu is ready to launch a B2C business to fool them for a while.
But it's a fool, but it's actually true.
Chen's strategy is that B2C and C2C run together at the same time.
This is like Tmall and Taobao in later generations.
Tmall does B2C business, and Taobao does C2C business.
Two can coexist, and both can be done at the same time.
But doing B2C is not an easy task.
In fact, they did 5173 before it was also a B2C business.
But this B2C business is a little different from the B2C business that Chen Yu wants to do. 5173's B2C business is a cooperative relationship with other merchants, who create accounts on 5173 and sell their own products. But now Chen Yu wants to do B2C, which is to buy and sell by himself, which is equivalent to the self-operated business of JD.com in the future.
However, if you want to be self-employed, the investment is small, and the more important thing is to build your own team.
This team includes procurement, operations, installation, and after-sales.
It's really difficult to build such a team in one line, and it doesn't take a few years to do it.
However, Chen Yu thought of a way to invest in major appliance supermarket chains.
Among them, Gome, Suning, and Dazhong Electric are Chen Yu's first choice.
They have their own faΓ§ade and their own procurement, operation, installation, and after-sales teams.
As long as they take a stake and then access their own e-commerce channels, the B2C business of Huanyu Technology can be officially carried out on a large scale.
It's just that Chen Yu asked Wang Chang to contact the three families, but the situation was not very good.
"Mr. Chen, should we touch Yongle?"
Wang Chang actually didn't understand something.
Four major appliance giants.
The first is Gome, the second is Suning, the third is Yongle, and the fourth is Dazhong.
Gome, Suning, and Dazhong Chen Yu all told Wang Chang to contact, but why not contact Yongle.
And now that Wing Lok is preparing to expand its stores on a large scale, it is very possible to contact them.
"Yongle. β
Chen Yu frowned.
Of course he knew about Yongle.
As the third Yongle in home appliances, how could Chen Yu not consider it.
It's just that when he thought that Yongle was always "Chen Xiao", Chen Yu seemed very hesitant.
You must know that in the previous life, Gome acquired Yongle, and after Huang Guangyu was imprisoned, Chen Xiaopi served as the chairman of Gome. He said that the chairman should help Gome well after Huang Guangyu was imprisoned, but he didn't think that Chen Xiao would unite with other capitals and almost annex Gome.
If it weren't for Huang Guangyu's back-up moves, I'm afraid Gome would be finished.
Faced with such an extremely ambitious guy, Chen Yuzhen didn't want to have any cooperation with him.
Only now, it seems that only Yongle is left.
