Chapter 83 E-commerce

After the mind was active, Qian Tonghai and the three of them really patiently understood Taobao and e-commerce, and the conversation gradually got better. After understanding the situation www.biquge.info the pen "Fun", the three of them felt that e-commerce was a good way, as if they had discovered a new continent.

Faced with a vast new continent, they wanted to rush in and open it up, but they were afraid that there would be unknown dangers in this continent. Taobao, on the other hand, is a group of people who took root in the New World before them and have grown stronger.

The question is how much area Taobao occupies in the New World and how much land is left for them.

Taobao's annual transaction volume is tens of billions, which is both a temptation and a deterrent. The first people to occupy the New World were so powerful, they all weighed their own weight in their hearts, whether they could compete with Taobao.

"Hang Yu, you said, if we want to build a website similar to Taobao, how much money do we have to invest? Qiu Wei asked. Qian Tonghai and the three of them also set their eyes on him, in their hearts, Hang Yu is already an industry insider, and has achieved certain success, his opinion cannot be ignored.

"It depends on how large you are, hundreds of thousands if it's small, and tens of millions if it's big. Taobao is free and cheap for the public, and it has now become a climate, and it is not easy to compete. Hang Yu said.

"If you invest a few million, how far can you go?" Qiu Wei asked.

"If you don't go up or down, you may be in the water. "Hang Yu is honest and authentic.

Qiu Wei's faces stiffened when he heard this, especially Qiu Wei, who was most excited about investing in e-commerce. At first glance, listening to Hang Yu's evaluation, Qiu Wei's enthusiasm was seriously hit, which can be described as a disappointment. Not to mention the three of Qian Tonghai, they were hesitant, and Hang Yu's words almost made them dispel the idea of investing in e-commerce. Millions are not enough, it seems that this Internet is not fun.

It's hard for them to understand where to build a website.

"There is a big contradiction between e-commerce and physical stores, and if you want to do a website like Taobao, you will definitely not be able to do Taobao. If you are facing the high-end brand market, and you have no foundation, and high-end brands almost all play physical stores, they will definitely not cooperate with you. Hang Yu said.

"Then how did you do it?" Qiu Wei was a little unconvinced, feeling underestimated by Hang Yu.

"What I did was purchasing on behalf of others, which belonged to a speculative online shopping model, and I borrowed the Taobao platform to succeed. To use an analogy, Taobao is a big tree, and I am a vine that I climbed up. The potential of daigou is far inferior to that of conventional e-commerce, and it cannot be compared with Taobao. Hang Yu said.

Hang Yu explained it so vividly, Qiu Wei's heart was a lot colder.

"It's not that you are doing an online shopping platform now, but the risks are very high, and the technical requirements are also very high. First of all, I am studying management, and the website is done by others, and I guide the direction of operation. Hang Yu said again.

"If I invest 20 million, how far can you go?" asked Qiu Wei.

"This... Think about it. Hang Yu hesitated.

With Hang Yu's current ability, 20 million is not much, and he can take out a loan himself.

The key is not a question of money, but what model of shopping platform to build and how to publicize and plan. Hang Yu has relevant plans, but he doesn't want to use them on Qiu Wei's company, otherwise his company will play something in the future.

However, there is investment, and it is a bit attractive to Hangyu to start the relevant plan earlier. Then there are several people who invest together to share the risk, and in case of failure, everyone loses money together, which is much safer than Hang Yu's loan alone.

"If there is any difficulty, don't hesitate to say it. Qiu Wei said unhappily.

"First of all, we don't have basic users, we don't have a store at the beginning of the opening, what do we sell? To make a payment platform, you have to cooperate with the bank and get recognized by the state, but I don't have the ability. Also, Taobao has to operate for free for three years, and you will definitely not be able to beat him for a fee, can you afford to play it for free?" Hang Yu said.

"Isn't there a solution, how does Taobao solve these problems?" Hang Yuanjian asked.

"Taobao is an industry owned by Alibaba, which was founded in 1999 and has accumulated many users during this time. I don't know much about the payment platform, but I must have spent a lot of money, and the number is calculated in hundreds of millions. Hang Yu said.

"Why did another Alibaba pop up? The more Qian Tonghai listened, the more confused he became.

"First there is Alibaba, then there is Taobao, in short, people have a foundation, and there is endless money. Don't say 20 million, give me 200 million may not be able to fight Taobao, at most follow behind to drink some soup. Hang Yu said.

Qiu Wei's face was a little dark, not to mention 200 million, he had to think twice about 20 million. Before, he learned about Taobao with Qiu Xueyan, but it was only a superficial understanding, but now Hang Yu talks more deeply.

The e-commerce market is undoubtedly huge, but it is obviously not that simple to compete with the crowd.

"In short, if you want to get a piece of the pie in the e-commerce field, it's not that simple, first familiarize yourself with this field. In addition to Taobao and JD.com and eBay, I suggest you all go and find out, don't invest blindly. Hang Yu said.

"Stinky boy, we need you to teach us. Seeing that the faces of the four bosses of Qiu Wei and Qian Tonghai were not good-looking, Qiu's mother suddenly pointed her finger at Hang Yu's head, pretending to be displeased.

"Whereever, I'll just say it casually, don't mind. Hang Yu reacted, he is now a little sassy year, and pretending in front of the four big bosses must be very unpleasant.

"Don't talk about things we don't understand, we don't want to be as big as Taobao. You just say how much it costs, and if you can achieve the size of your company, we will be satisfied. Qiu's mother poked at the thoughts of the four of Qiuwei, and the four of them set their eyes on Hang Yu again.

"It shouldn't be difficult to achieve my current scale, and an investment of 20 million is enough. Hang Yu said.

Qiu Wei nodded secretly, 20 million can open a company with a monthly income of one million, he is quite satisfied. As for a company like Taobao with an annual transaction volume of 10 billion, Qiu Wei really doesn't dare to expect it.

Qian Tonghai and the three of them discussed in a low voice, and they also felt that it was quite reliable, and they could try it without losing money.

"If I invest 20 million, what are you going to do, do you have any plans?" asked Qiu Wei.

"Of course, we first ask someone to do a good job of the website, and at the same time contact some small and medium-sized enterprises to settle in the website and become the first batch of stores. Once you have the foundation, you can start throwing money at publicity, and there is no shortcut to this area. As for the payment platform, I recommend using Taobao's Alipay first, and then make your own payment software when the website becomes stronger. Hang Yu said.

"It's not difficult, you just said no. Qiu's mother gave him a roll of the eyes.

As I said before, there seemed to be a lot of difficulties, but it turned out that it was not difficult to find out.
