Losing is Earning Chapter 169 Ways to Travel
Dragon Country is the world's largest bicycle sales market.
Even in the two megacities of Rendezvous and Dragon City, there are still a large number of people who cannot afford a gasoline car and rely on bicycles for long-distance travel.
In rural areas, there are even animal-powered carts.
The fourth challenge has to do with the way people get around.
Although the bicycle is green, as long as the distance is a little long, it will consume a lot of energy.
It's a good choice for office workers, but it's by no means the most prelude.
The timeline of Xiao Yi's previous life is more than ten years later than the present. At that time, the Celestial Empire had transformed from a bicycle country into an electric bicycle country.
It is precisely because of this means of transportation that the food delivery business is popular.
If you use a bicycle to deliver food, you won't be able to run far in the city, and you will be tired and half dead.
Again, that's the same sentence.
Creating a new thing from scratch is quite difficult. It is not only necessary to come up with a feasible idea, but also to repeatedly verify it before it can be brought to market.
I don't know how long it will take.
Xiao Yi belongs to standing on the shoulders of giants, directly copying the popular electric bicycle model in his previous life, which can quickly change the way people travel.
drove Han Lin to board the plane to Dragon City, and immediately made an appointment with Bai Qiming to discuss the matter with him.
Bai Qiming's base camp is in Longdu, and his connections are wider than Xiao Yi's.
Whether it is buying materials, finding relevant manufacturers, or running various procedures, he is more skilled than Xiao Yi.
After listening to Xiao Yi's ideas and abstract sketches drawn on A4 paper, I was amazed at the strangeness of his ideas.
"I sometimes wonder how many treasure ideas do you have in your head?" Bai Qiming is also a big boss with several industries, and his sense of smell of market trends is by no means comparable to ordinary people, and he thinks that he can't compare with Xiao Yi.
If you can really build a relatively cheap electric bicycle, you can definitely have a broad market.
Xiao Yi doesn't make a move, and as soon as he makes a move, it will be a large project worth tens or even tens of billions.
Such a person, if he were Zhou Liyi, would be quite jealous.
No one will refuse to make a lot of money.
Bai Qiming is no exception.
The style of the e-bike is not much different from a traditional human-powered bike, except that there is an extra space under the seat to store the battery.
The original e-bike, which retained the pedals for riding. So that when the battery is out, you can continue to ride in the traditional way.
Xiao Yi has invested in battery research and development, but the current lithium battery technology is not enough to ensure that electric bicycles can ride dozens of kilometers.
Pulling out seedlings to help them grow is also undesirable in the process of business investment.
Only when the lithium battery technology is mature enough, can the mode of human-powered riding be canceled, otherwise it will only bring inconvenience to consumers.
After the two reached an agreement, they began to discuss how to produce electric bicycles.
It's nothing more than two modes.
The first is that the two of them jointly inject capital, each holding part of the shares of the bicycle company, and then make it a leading enterprise in the bicycle industry.
Another way is to use a mature bicycle production line and let them do the processing.
The two provide lithium batteries while collecting royalties for part of the technology.
It's not a bad guy, there's no need to give benefits to others.
After a brief discussion, it was decided that Bai Qiming would take over the manufacturing industry of electric bicycles.
Xiao Yi went to register relevant patents, master core technology, and earn money for technical productivity.
Now that the benefit-sharing relationship is clearly defined, the construction can begin.
After experiencing the third challenge, Xiao Yi knew in his heart that if he wanted to complete the challenge, he had to officially achieve his goal.
The die-cast mold had to be recreated to make the material look like an e-bike.
Due to the mature die-casting model of human-powered bicycles, it can be used to make electric bicycles after simple improvements and enlargements.
Lithium-ion battery factories have also begun to manufacture matching savings lithium batteries for easy loading in e-bikes.
During this period, Xiao Yi had nothing to do and played alone in Longdu.
As a result, just two days after being chic, he was invited by An Jianbo to go to the office building rented by the Gudong team to help calm down a turmoil.
The reason is simple.
An Jianbo advocates maintaining the simple interface of Gudong, resolutely not placing advertisements, and simulating the operation mode of Blue Sky Video.
The rest of the team disagreed.
Businesses can only make a quick profit if they are allowed to run ads. Only by solving the problem of loss can the Goodong team develop healthily.
Although An Jianbo is the leader of the project, he can't make a statement, and he can't directly decide the development direction of the team with his own ideas.
The crowd argued endlessly, but there was never a result that convinced everyone.
At this time, you have to move out of the god of Longyao Group, that is, Chairman Xiao Yi.
His accomplishments in the field of business are not convincing.
At a time when it is difficult to make a decision, you might as well listen to his opinion.
Xiao Yi drove to the Gudong office building.
There is only one floor, and the environment is relatively simple.
All the members of the start-up team are crammed into one office, and the computer desks are separated by glass, creating a relatively private personal space.
This kind of office environment reminds Xiao Yi of Longyao Investment Company when he first came to Bluestar.
At that time, he was still a lucky man, known as a nouveau riche by business people, and he was still figuring out how to use this buff to earn at a loss.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed, and my own situation has changed dramatically. In short, it's the purpose of the business that makes a difference.
Although the dragon country of Blue Star is a developed country, it is more supported by the economy of two super metropolises.
There are also a considerable number of citizens whose living conditions are relatively backward.
If you blindly manufacture expensive products, it will not only be difficult to move towards the high-end, but also lose this part of the market.
Placing advertisements in Goo Dong is tantamount to killing chickens and taking eggs.
The eggs were eaten more quickly, but the hens that produced the eggs were killed, and if they wanted to supplement their nutrition in the future, they had to buy them from other people's homes.
Xiao Yi doesn't care.
Some of his badge redemption stores are core technology industries, but for the members of the start-up team, Gollum, a live chat software, carries their dreams.
Unless it is absolutely necessary, it cannot be wantonly abused.
After Xiao Yi finished speaking, there was a long silence in the office.
He looked around at the faces of the members of the start-up team and smiled: "Now the controlling shareholder of Gudong is Longyao Group. Have you ever thought about the loss of money in someone's pocket? β
"Money in your pocket." An Jianbo replied truthfully.
"What are you afraid of? Despite the making! After losing this money, I will inject you again. "The last thing Xiao Yi is afraid of is losing money.
"Boss Xiao, with your words, we are relieved."
"Do you still want to advertise in Gollum now?"
"Not at all." Everyone replied in unison.
"It's important to remember that. No matter what time it is, Goodong can't charge users, and it doesn't run ads. Always keep the interface simple mode, you can win a bright future! Xiao Yi waved his hand, feeling like a speech expert standing on the podium.
After listening to Xiao Yi's explanation, everyone couldn't help but feel inexplicably excited.
What Xiao Yi said, summed up in more straightforward words, is not to forget the original intention.
In addition to making this instant chat software, the start-up team wanted to make a less bloated instant chat software to compete with the popular European bubbles on the market.
If you include ads, you will only incur defeat.
After speaking, the field has been calmed.
Differences of opinion within the start-up team disappeared.
Forgive me for my uninhibited indulgence in this life......
Xiao Yi took out his mobile phone.
The caller ID is Bai Qiming.
Quiet waved his hand and said goodbye to the members of the Gollum team.
He is no longer the little chick he was when he first arrived, and now it is not difficult for him to have a meeting, but more importantly, the challenges that are being carried out.
Walk out of the office, pull your phone out of your pocket, and answer calls that might be important.
"President Shaw, I have good news for you." Despite the phone receiver, Bai Qiming's excited tone could not be hidden.
"What's the good news?" Xiao Yi thought that he would be very excited, but his heart was quite calm.
"The White Pigeon Bicycle Factory built the first electric bicycle. I rode it, and it was really more effortless than a human-tech bike. β
"This industry has done a good job, and the future market is no smaller than the coal mining industry."
"President Xiao, how else to say that you are the president! You can do this kind of thing by bringing people to earn money. β
Bai Qiming has been involved in the lithium battery and electric bicycle industry throughout the process, and he is not a necessary presence in any link.
If Xiao Yi didn't pull him in, with the size of the Longyao Group, it would be enough to swallow this huge cake.
pattern, not the average large.
Xiao Yi listened to the flattery, but the joy came from another thing.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the fourth challenge]
It doesn't seem that you have to wait for it to be put on the market before you can complete the task.
