Chapter 128: The Night Owl Is Coming

It didn't take long for netizens to contact his good buddy, Li Dajiang, the former founder of the group buying e-commerce network "Tuantuan". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

This Li Dajiang is known as the "old cat", with a round face with a full beard, unkempt, messy hairstyle and fluffy beard, making his whole head like a ball of yarn.

Coupled with the occasional little thief light in his eyes, this guy has the temperament of a lewd middle-aged uncle at a young age, so the first impression is often not too good.

He is a typical night owl, never goes to bed before two o'clock in the morning, and lives a black and white life all year round, so the nickname of the old cat is really very apt.

As a typical web worm, he has been immersed in the Internet industry for many years, and has some very rich experience, especially in the field of e-commerce, he is already a well-known expert.

He used to be the manager of the Xianhu branch of a large e-commerce website, and later left in early 2012 and independently developed the group purchase e-commerce network "Tuantuan.com", and unfortunately stepped into the big pit of O2O.

As an emerging group buying e-commerce website, Tuantuan was once prosperous, but soon became well-known in the Xianhu area, and gradually expanded to major cities in the Yangtze River Delta.

However, due to the rapid expansion of the website in the early stage, with the expansion of the company's scale, various expenses have increased exponentially. In the O2O field, there are many years of competition in the same period, to expand market share, the comparison is speed, often after this village there is no store, overnight, the situation will change dramatically.

Although Tuantuan Network rose quickly, it did not have a competitive advantage, and in the face of fierce competition from similar companies, the company quickly fell into a financial dilemma.

Presumably compared to other websites of the same type, Tuantuan.com also has a congenital shortcoming, that is, Li Dajiang is self-made and does not have any financial support behind him.

And at this most important juncture, Li Dajiang's decision-making has deviated. Although several venture capitalists at that time saw the development potential of the website and planned to inject capital into Tuantuan.com, Li Dajiang thought very highly of himself and offered very harsh conditions, which led to the slow progress of negotiations between the two sides.

For Internet e-commerce startups, time is of the essence, and once they fall into financial difficulties, it is difficult for these startups to survive half a year, and they must obtain funds quickly to maintain normal operations.

It is for this reason that Tuantuanwang only struggled for three months in the predicament before declaring bankruptcy and bankruptcy, and Li Dajiang not only lost all his belongings, but also took on a huge debt of millions of yuan.

In order to pay off his debts as soon as possible, Li Dajiang had to fight the cold and the scorching heat, riding a small electric donkey to deliver food all over the street.

Li Dajiang did not think about starting a second business, but after experiencing the lessons of the failure of Tuantuan.com, he understood that entrepreneurship not only requires solid technology and sharp vision, but also needs a steady stream of funds like a surging river. He is now a millionaire and has no entrepreneurial foundation at all.

Li Dajiang pulled the silver in his pocket, and it would probably take a long time to climb out of the big pit he had dug before. At the moment, there is no good company, so we can only continue to deliver food.

At this most embarrassing time, he heard from his friend that the B2B e-commerce platform for agricultural products "Shennong.com" was recruiting an operations director, and his spirit couldn't help but be shocked.

He immediately turned on the computer, logged in to Shennong.com, and after a careful experience, silently nodded his hairy head, definitely as a B2B website, this Shennong.com can do very well.

At the beginning of 2012, when he first started his business, he struggled for a long time in choosing B2B, C2C or O2O, and unfortunately entered the big pit of O2O, which burned money.

From the perspective of business model, whether it is B2B or C2C, it is much more economical in terms of burning money.

He also considered doing these two types of e-commerce entrepreneurship, but with Baibao.com standing in the way like Mount Tai pressing on the top, he never found a path that was not too eye-catching to bypass Baibao.com's main business.

And by examining other e-commerce websites of the same type, it is not difficult to find that they are shrouded in the huge shadow of Baibao.com, and it is difficult for them to get ahead. In the end, in order to avoid Baibao.com, Li Dajiang fell into the big pit of O2O.

"The B2B e-commerce platform for agricultural products, with agricultural products as the entry point, although this thing is difficult to do, it can indeed kill a world." Li Dajiang slapped his thigh and sat up from the bed, "Why didn't I think of it at that time?" Oops, misstep! ”

For the first time, he got up before three o'clock in the afternoon, rubbed his sleepy eyes, straightened his bird's nest, took a resume, and went to Shennong.com at Xianhu University to apply for a job.

At this moment, Ye Haolong and Fan Siyuan were already waiting for the arrival of candidates in the company, two operation assistants were quickly recruited, and the most important position of operation director, there were also three or five people who came to apply, but the information of these candidates was very ordinary, Ye Haolong and Fan Siyuan were not very satisfied.

It wasn't until Li Dajiang, who was chubby as a fat cat, appeared that after a pleasant conversation between the three of them, the choice of the operation director was decided.

Li Dajiang is a compound talent, he studied software engineering in college, has certain insights in the field of computer software, and he has the ability to operate and manage, and even far surpasses Ye Haolong in the management experience of Internet start-up companies.

When he saw that one of the co-founders of Shennong.com turned out to be Fan Siyuan, his eyes widened, and he was so surprised that he was speechless.

Although Li Dajiang has been negligent in the technology of software programming recently, he has always paid attention to the latest trends in this field, so Fan Siyuan's name is like thunder.

It can be said that compared with Dr. Fan, his little skill is really only the share of lifting shoes.

Being able to enter a company founded by your idol is definitely the happiest thing in life. I saw that Li Dajiang's eyes were shining, like an old cat who found a fat mouse in the middle of the night.

He didn't say a word, saying that even if he didn't get a salary, he would follow Fan Siyuan.

"Dajiang, then all the business of Shennong.com will be handed over to you, we have assigned you two assistants, and the place of work is in the Youth Entrepreneurship Center of Xianhu University." Ye Haolong is quite satisfied with the operation director, "The technical problems are reported to Dr. Fan, and the business problems are reported to me. ”
