300, Cao Cao takeaway
There are indeed a lot of things to do when a new company is to be established.
However, this is all something that Hong Jun needs to worry about, and members of Chen Dongcheng's think tank will assist.
Peng Zhijian has helped so much, he must have a treat for dinner.
In the private room, Chen Dongcheng and Peng Zhijian, Peng Zhijian and Chen Dongcheng mentioned several companies that they had recently invested in, and wanted to hear Chen Dongcheng's views.
I have to say that Peng Zhijian's vision is indeed vicious.
Chen Dongcheng had heard of several companies.
"Lao Peng, your vision is this!"
Chen Dongcheng gave a thumbs up and made Peng Zhijian very happy.
Peng Zhijian waved his hand and said with a smile: "I'm also just starting out, and I haven't invested in a few in total."
By the way, I heard that you dug Gan Jiawei over, what big move do you want?"
"It's just a small gesture to increase the income of the delivery staff under him. ”
Chen Dongcheng said it lightly, Peng Zhijian didn't believe it.
"You and I still need to hide it, do you need funds? I'll give you an angel round. ”
Lao Peng smiled, obviously very interested in Chen Dongcheng's new project.
Chen Dongcheng glanced at Peng Zhijian and asked playfully: "I plan to make a takeaway platform, are you sure you want to play with me?"
"Takeaway?"
Peng Zhijian was taken aback: "It's so decent, why did you think of making takeout?"
"There is no technical difficulty in the food delivery platform, and a group of engineers can develop a platform.
I have all thought of the name of the takeaway platform, and it is called Cao Cao Takeaway. ”
Peng Zhijian was a little speechless: "You are on the same page with Cao Cao, but the scale of the food delivery platform to burn money is no worse than that of other taxi-hailing software fields." ”
Throughout 2014 and 2015, the two industries that burned the most money in China were taxi software and food delivery platforms.
Of course, in 2015, you can add a little bit of shared bicycles, but it is far less lively than the food delivery platform.
The real Big Three went down in person and frantically promoted their own payment platforms.
At this time, the money is no longer money, it is a string of numbers on the loss statement.
Chen Dongcheng took a sip of tea and asked rhetorically: "Don't you think that the few in the market now can't burn?"
Peng Zhijian thought about it carefully, it was really like this.
The Big Three are smashing one more fiercely in the outside market.
Over the course of the year, more than a billion dollars of funds have been burned, and there is no sign of stopping.
If the market does not form a monopoly, the battle to burn money will not stop.
However, after a year of fighting, the bullets were basically empty.
Peng Zhijian was a little puzzled: "Even so, you burn money for WeChat and Alipay to promote?"
"How is it possible, you think I'm going to do that stupid thing?"
Chen Dongcheng beckoned to Xie Jingyu, and Xie Jingyu immediately took over a document.
Peng Zhijian took the document, took a quick look at it, and was full of surprise: "When did you acquire the payment license?"
"Not long ago, I just negotiated that I asked people to acquire Jiefu Ruitong, 800 million, which is not cheap. ”
The reason for acquiring a payment license is simple, all the sale of goods will involve payment.
Especially in the era of online payment and mobile payment, the maturity of the payment system is particularly important.
But any mature business platform will consider having its own payment system sooner or later.
Even Kangaroo King secretly acquired Qian Daibao, just in order not to continue to be subject to Tengxun, and to master the data of paying users alone.
For the real giants, it doesn't matter whether the payment license appreciates or depreciates.
The most important thing is the user value and payment value that this license can bring.
Moreover, Chen Dongcheng asked the think tank to acquire Jiefu Ruitong, which is one of the few more than 20 most fully licensed payment companies in China.
Internet payment, mobile phone payment, bank card reminder three major business, all available.
Generally speaking, companies with only a simple Internet payment license are considered the cheapest.
In the past, when it was cheapest, 10 million could be done.
However, in recent years, giants have piled up to enter the payment field, which is not bad for money, which has boosted the price of payment licenses.
Of course, Peng Zhijian knew it, and sincerely sighed at the greatness of Chen Dongcheng's handwriting.
Spend 800 million to buy a license, just to not be controlled by others.
Really willing!
Chen Dongcheng really didn't care too much, and he didn't spend much of the 500 million he borrowed from ICBC.
"With a payment license, I can do so much more.
For example, many of my companies have independent payment channels.
No more paying a hefty annual third-party service fee. ”
Peng Zhijian's eyes narrowed: "Keep in Mr. Chen's hand, Blue Whale Overseas Purchase, Cao Cao Suda, Qingju Bicycle."
Including the upcoming food delivery platform, it does need its own payment platform.
It's worth the money!"
Thinking like this, Peng Zhijian was suddenly shocked.
Where is this going to the takeaway platform, which is obviously to create a huge local life service platform.
To know the local life service, the most stubborn problem is undoubtedly delivery.
However, Cao Cao Suda has millions of part-time delivery workers.
Who would dare to underestimate such a huge distribution force?
It seems that only takeaway is online now, who dares to say that Cao Cao takeaway will not expand hotels, movie tickets, leisure and entertainment and other businesses in the future?
What's even more terrifying is that these businesses have completed the business closed loop.
Even the payment will not allow Teng Xun and Ahri to mix.
Hiss!
The more Peng Zhijian thought about it, the more frightened he became, looking at the young Chen Dongcheng, Peng Zhijian really couldn't stop marveling.
At this age, people have already set their horizons so high.
It's not as simple as buying a payments company.
Thinking of this, Peng Zhijian said with a serious face: "Mr. Chen, I still say the same thing, as long as you need me, Lao Peng, I will have the funds in place at any time." ”
"Rest assured, when you need funds, I will definitely contact Mr. Peng as soon as possible. ”
Peng Zhijian left with an amazement in his heart, and Chen Dongcheng then met with the person in charge of Cao Cao's finance.
The original executives of Jiefu Ruitong have all withdrawn.
Their abilities simply do not meet the requirements of the members of the think tank.
The new general manager is a great deal, having been the general manager of the investment banking department of Shanghai Pudong Development Bank until he left the company.
In addition to high salaries and equity incentives, the prospects described by Chen Dongcheng are what Zhu Zijing is most interested in.
Zhu Zijing has no doubt about Chen Dongcheng's support for Cao Cao's finance.
can be willing to spend 800 million just for a license.
It is conceivable how eager Chen Dongcheng is for this license.
"Mr. Chen, are you saying that Qingju Technology, Blue Whale Overseas Purchase, Shangdong Technology, and Pinduoduo are all your companies?"
Zhu Zijing's face was full of surprise, if Chen Dongcheng hadn't told him personally, he would definitely not have believed it.
Behind so many companies, it turns out that they are all the same boss?
"Keep's payment entrance needs to be reserved for Tengxun, and you will become the exclusive payment channel for other Blue Whale Overseas Shopping and Qingju Bicycles. ”
Zhu Zijing looked excited: "I will definitely seize the opportunity to attract more users." ”
It is difficult to say that payment companies want to develop.
The vast majority of the payment market share has been divided between Alipay and WeChat.
Therefore, many payment companies are living extremely hard, and their losses are very serious every year.
If it weren't for the giants competing for licenses, and the above deliberately locked up the quota, paying for the license would not be worth so much money.
For example, Qingju bicycle, the development speed is unbeatable, and it is a long distance away from its competitors.
Relying on the refund at the speed of light in the last deposit turmoil, Qingju Bicycle received a lot of praise.
The most obvious effect is that the number of registered users has increased significantly.
This is another increase on an already large enough base.
Many small companies have died directly, but Qingju Bicycle has developed vigorously.
With up to 100 million registered users, the daily payment alone is a huge amount of turnover.
For payment companies, this transaction flow is undoubtedly the most valuable.
It is completely possible to explore more profit directions according to the user's transaction information.
Otherwise, Alipay and WeChat are desperately subsidizing taxi software, not with this purpose.
There was hardly any leisure on this day, and Gan Jiawei rushed to meet Chen Dongcheng in the afternoon.
The two have been friends for a long time, Lu Guangyu introduced with a smile.
"Dong Chen, this is the talent you have been thinking about, and now I have finally been persuaded by me with my incorruptible tongue. ”
Gan Jiawei stretched out his hands, his expression was a little mixed: "Chairman Chen, thank you for taking you in." ”
"Take in?"
Chen Dongcheng shook his head: "You are the talent I have always longed for, the magnesium group is wary of you, that is Wang Xing's own lack of confidence, he is afraid that Ahri will take away his power." ”
"But I'm not like him, I'm not short of money.
I dug you here because I want you to rely on your past experience to rebuild an iron army.
Copy the successful experience of the magnesium group. ”
Chen Dongcheng pointed at Lu Guangyu: "You are old opponents, old friends, and now you are also comrades-in-arms."
I don't believe that millions of delivery people can't do anything about the rabble of magnesium groups. ”
Lu Guangyu gave Gan Jiawei a look, and Gan Jiawei said: "What you said is true, but the launch of the takeaway platform has to be considered in the long run." ”
Gan Jiawei's personality is more cautious, but how can the ability of a person who can make Wang Xing jealous be poor.
"Chen Dong, the engineers have already been recruited, and we have been waiting for Jiawei to be in place, and now we can finally officially develop the App. ”
Lu Guangyu said with a smile, obviously planning for this day for a long time.
Gan Jiawei's expression was stunned, he didn't expect Lu Guangyu to even recruit people, obviously he has always had ambitions for the takeaway market.
"The start-up capital can't be too small, otherwise it won't hurt them at all.
Then invest 50 million dollars first, what do you think?"
Gan Jiawei's heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Chen Dongcheng with a surprised expression.
It was the first time he had seen such a powerful independent investor.
Before, Lu Guangyu vaguely revealed some of Chen Dongcheng's situation to Gan Jiawei.
But it was a bit of a surprise to him that he was so happy to give him $50 million.
"You can rest assured, I have the funds and people, and I will launch the product as soon as possible. ”
Gan Jiawei was not verbose, and simply accepted the order.
Lv Guangyu added with a smile: "The promotion plan has been formulated, and we have mastered all the hungry merchants."
Although they have recently started to watch out for us, it is too late. ”
This is a chess piece that was planted early.
Hungry was hungry before, and in order to maintain its market share, it had to hand over all the distribution to Cao Cao Suda.
Until the last two rounds of financing, Ele.me has abundant funds, and the previously scrapped distribution division has also been reorganized.
No company can trust any other company 100%.
Even if the other party holds shares in the company.
But as Lu Guangyu said, Cao Cao's speedy performance in the early stage was too harmless to humans and animals.
Although you are hungry, you have been negligent for a long time, and you will inevitably be a little slack.
It usually doesn't matter, once Cao Cao Suda has other thoughts.
If you're hungry, it's not going to be easy.
The market is so big, Cao Cao's takeaway is online, and it is destined to grab the cake of several other companies.
Either you die or I live.
The competition in all markets is so bloody.
With a clear plan, development naturally accelerates in a straight line.
Even the development of the food delivery platform App did not take much effort.
Lv Guangyu had been instructing some engineers to do it before, and with the large-scale poaching, many engineers with outstanding abilities joined in.
A food delivery software that is not too complicated to go online will naturally not be too time-consuming.
......
November 28th.
There are many figures in the streets and alleys of the magic capital carrying takeaway boxes in one hand and leaflets in the other, wearing black jackets.
At first, many people didn't pay attention until they could see the contents of the leaflet.
"Cao Cao's takeaway, everything is delivered quickly, a software platform that only does conscientious takeaway, a week before it was launched, the single order was halved. ”
Many people looked at the cartoon Cao Cao villain and smiled.
Some will not hesitate to throw the flyer in the trash, while others will take out their mobile phone and start searching for the app in the app market.
Cao Cao's delivery staff worked part-time to deliver leaflets, and this wave of operations was indeed unexpected by many people.
When the news reached Zhang Xuhao's ears, it was already night.
Hungry headquarters, brightly lit.
All the executives sat together, some frowning and smoking, some muttering in a low voice.
Everyone's minds are similar, shouldn't that be?
No matter how much they think about it, they can't figure it out.
Cao Cao, a small company with a valuation of only 300 million US dollars, where did he have the confidence to join the battle of the three giants in the food delivery market?
Aren't you afraid that the three families will concentrate their firepower and kill them first?
Zhang Xuhao sat on the main seat and knocked on the table: "Let's talk about it, how should we deal with Cao Cao's takeaway?"
The executives looked at each other, and in the end, it was the number two person Kanga who took the lead in speaking.
"I suggest that the cooperation with Cao Cao Suda be stopped immediately, and the additional capital investment will be increased to support the distribution division.
Attracting more idle people to join our crowdsourcing platform must not continue to allow Cao Cao to dig up our foundations. ”
Many of the businesses on Cao Cao's takeaway are all merchants who cooperate with Eleme.
For them, it's nothing more than adding a new customer acquisition channel.
In addition, Cao Cao's takeaway was halved in the first week of its launch, which will definitely attract many users to place orders.
How many merchants would resist the temptation to make more money?
As for loyalty......
The platform is also a commission, which is just mutually beneficial.
Zhang Xuhao thinks about Chen Dongcheng seeing him for the first time, and then Cao Cao's speed online, and now Cao Cao's takeaway to grab their cake.
How sophisticated is this?
In his own right, Zhang Xuhao didn't think he could be as patient as Chen Dongcheng.
How much endurance does it take to wait so long for you to suddenly enter the game?
The most disgusting thing is nothing else, the takeaway market has been educated by hungry.
The vitality of the three companies was greatly damaged, and the capital behind them was also a little resistant to continue to invest.
If this development continues, maybe it will really be cheap Cao Cao's takeaway!
