Chapter 7: Daddy Ma
Back at home, thinking about this unsuccessful speech, Zhou Shi really wanted to get involved in the MLM organization and learn their methods, well! Or it would be better to learn from the masters of success, anyway, they are all brainwashing, and one of them is more harmful.
Zhou Shi, who was still maintaining the Taobao store on this day, went online all night again in order to save money. There are still only two orders, which are processed, the information is recorded, and the email is replied to. Zhou Shi suddenly found a special email, the sender Jack Ma.
Hello Zhou Shi, I am very surprised to receive your letter, your ideas have given me a great reminder, we have started the development of Alipay, and I look forward to further communication with you in Hangzhou. Jack Ma!
Zhou Shi's heart was suddenly confused, this can't be true, right? The famous Ma Dad actually invited himself to meet. The pounding heart can't be calmed down for a long time. It's so unbearable to breathe, it's just a meeting. Although the future Papa Ma is the best at layout, the most far-sighted among the three giants of China's Internet, and the most moral one for the majority of netizens. Compared with posting small advertisements and cheating children, there is really nothing to say about pleasing Ma's father who is a loser.
After watching it several times in a row, Zhou Shi still couldn't determine whether it was true or false, but he calmed down. If you run over like this, you will be miserable if you are a liar. After thinking about it for a long time, I still didn't want to miss such an opportunity, and I was worried about being deceived, so I finally sent an email.
"Hello Jack Ma, are you really Jack Ma? If you think my suggestion is really valuable, or the value of my suggestion is greater than the value of the round-trip airfare from Changsha to Hangzhou, please provide me with the round-trip airfare and travel expenses. I look forward to meeting you! ”
I pressed the send button, and I suppressed the mood of gaining and losing. Check out, turn off the phone, go home and sleep.
The next day, Zhou Shi continued to ship, and with the borrowed digital camera, Zhou Shi chose clothing and shoes for his new assortment. found a shop in the wholesale market, or raised the title of the champion of the city to get cooperation, let the niece of the proprietress try a few sets of women's clothes, Zhou Shi also tried a few sets of men's clothes, some pants and so on, until there is no memory, Zhou Shi finished taking pictures.
"Why do you keep running outside these days, what are you doing?" asked her mother, Guo Xinyi
"I make money selling things online. ”
"What to sell, can you also sell things online?"
"This time I'm going to sell clothes" Zhou Shi
"Who is this sold to?" Guo Xinyi
"How do I know this, whoever buys it will sell it to whomever I want, it's all over the country. ”
"Really, how is this possible?" Guo Xinyi
"How impossible, I've sold a lot, and now I've earned more than 200. Zhou Shi went on to talk about the magic of the Internet, and the essence of selling things on the Internet is actually retail, but it has expanded the sales object and changed the display location and transaction method. Another is that there is no tax on online transactions, which can save a lot of costs.
Father Zhou Quan also became interested, and began to ask this and that, Zhou Shi answered little by little, but unfortunately the computer is too expensive, and private broadband installation is also very expensive. Otherwise, it can really allow parents to contact the Internet in advance, and it will be much more convenient to watch TV when they are old in the future.
At that time on the Internet, Zhou Shi took the camera, came to the Internet café to upload the new information, and removed the previous products. This time, there were only clothes, and the name of the store was changed to Boys and Girls. It's a pity that Zhou Shi doesn't have much knowledge of the Internet, and only has some simple decoration skills. Now Baidu doesn't even know about it, it's too simple, and there is no place to check a lot of knowledge and skills. Thinking that I looked down on Baidu not long ago, I really felt sorry for him at this time, Baidu was still very awesome. A lot of knowledge in Zhou Shi's previous life was obtained through Baidu, and writing a paper is indispensable with Baidu's help.
After opening the email, Jack Ma replied to the email in the afternoon: The ticket fare has been paid, please come as soon as you receive it.
"......" Zhou Shi is really blind, okay, let's go back to sleep.
After the Taobao store changed into clothes, Zhou Shi's business was obviously much better, and there was business on the first day. There were three orders on the second day, five orders on the third day, and three orders on the fourth day, at least there was business every day. On the fifth day, as soon as Zhou Shi returned from sending the goods, he received an express mail.
"Wow! It's really a plane ticket, and there is a cash remittance of 500 yuan. Zhou Shi opened the package in front of his parents and shouted in surprise.
"Who sent it to you. "Thoughtful
"It's the site where I sell stuff, and I gave him some advice, and he invited me over for a chat, to say thank you, and maybe something else. ”
"This can't be a liar, right?"
"Foreigners have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in him, if he is a liar, then foreign countries are fools" Zhou Shi
"Then you still have to be careful, don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case"
"Okay, but I'll be there in a few days, what about my business?"
"Put down your business first. ”
"But when my business is good, I can make 100 yuan a day. ”
……
"Then why don't I try it with your dad. Zhou's mother Guo Xinyi said
In the next few days, Zhou Shi began to teach his parents to go online, operate Taobao accounts, collect money, and deliver goods. Fortunately, I'm not old now, and I learn things relatively quickly, unlike in my previous life, Zhou Shi went home after graduating and working for a few years, and he couldn't teach them to use network TV. In addition to teaching them how to use the computer network, Zhou Shi also began to study what to say to Ma's father and whether he could change anything from it. I don't know why he agreed to sell so much equity to Yahoo at that time, in fact, he was acquired by Yahoo, but in the end he took back control of the company.
A few days later, looking at the time on the ticket, he sent an email, and Zhou Shi set off. Zhou Shi, who doesn't like to communicate with strangers, didn't have any strange things along the way, such as hijacking, plane accidents or something, and came to Hangzhou very smoothly, and there was actually a special person to pick up the plane, an eldest sister who felt a little familiar.
"How did you come up with such a great idea as Alipay?" the eldest sister said
"It's not all what I think, after the college entrance examination, I want to make some money through the Internet, but it turns out that the domestic C2C is eBay, but he charges a fee, I have no money, and then I found Taobao. When researching the difference between eBay and Taobao, I found that eBay in the United States also acquired a third-party payment tool called PayPal, which led to associations, and it happened that business had been bad since my Taobao store opened, so I had the idea of using Alipay as a third-party credit intermediary. ”
"How did you come up with the idea to write to Jack Ma?"
"eBay has a fee, it's been acquired by a foreign company, and I think Taobao's free measures are likely to beat eBay in the Chinese market, so I wanted to join in the fun. ”
"Do you think Taobao can beat eBay, eBay is a listed company in the United States, much more than Alibaba, and it is very rich. ”
"What's your name? Jack Ma found an employee like you, and he didn't have any confidence at all. If you don't have the confidence to open Taobao, you don't have the courage to compete with the masters, if I were Jack Ma, I would definitely open you. ”
"My name is Peng Lei, and when you get to the company, you can ask Jack to fire me!"
