"What!"
"Is Xingyi Technology fully committed to e-commerce?"
Jack Ma was shocked.
Other senior executives were also stunned.
If you don't say anything shocking, you will die.
Once Xingyi Technology also develops comprehensive e-commerce, it will really be Alibaba's nightmare.
But some senior executives were very disdainful: "President Mo, are you a little worried? How can comprehensive e-commerce be so easy to do?"
Then someone echoed: "That's right, we at Alibaba know best how difficult it is to be an e-commerce company. We can't just talk about it. President Mo is a bit alarmist."
"Am I unfounded? Am I being alarmist?" Mo Yi laughed angrily: "It is indeed difficult for other companies to start comprehensive e-commerce from scratch. But Xingyi Technology is different!"
"Xingyi Technology has Xingyi Mall, Meiyou Mall, International Mall, and Douyin Mall. It started as a vertical e-commerce, and it is not difficult to transform into a comprehensive e-commerce."
"Xingyi Technology and Xingyi Logistics have many warehousing centers and logistics teams all over the country! They are better than Alibaba, which does not have its own logistics team."
“Xingyi Technology also has Changchao Pay, with more than 350 million users!”
"Once Xingyi Technology becomes a comprehensive e-commerce company, I am afraid that it will become the second Yixun.com or even the second Tencent Online Shopping in a short period of time, which will become a nightmare for us at Alibaba!"
"Is this called unfounded worry?"
"Is this alarmism?"
Word by word, Mo Yi said it with integrity.
The senior executives in the room were silent collectively, their expressions were extremely solemn.
Especially the two senior executives who questioned were speechless and their faces turned the color of pig liver.
Even Jack Ma frowned, completely feeling the crisis.
The self-operated models of Amazon, JD.com, and Yixun.com, which provide door-to-door delivery, have the greatest impact on Taobao.
In fact, Yixun.com, which is currently run by Goose Factory, is also very powerful.
It is also self-operated and has its own Yixun logistics. You can also place an order the day before and have it delivered to your door the next day.
In the past life, a big reason why JD.com’s logistics was able to improve rapidly was that it merged Yixun.com and Yixun Logistics, so that orders could be placed in the morning and delivered to your door in the afternoon...
On the contrary, Taobao Logistics is useless.
In 2013, Taobao's logistics was extremely slow. After placing an order, it took four or five days to arrive in another city.
If Xingyi Technology also builds a comprehensive e-commerce platform, it has payment, a platform, users, and logistics!
Then Alibaba is really in danger, Taobao is also in danger!
"Is it possible that we really have to give up blocking Changchao Pay and bow to Xingyi Technology?" Jack Ma frowned, feeling aggrieved and unwilling to accept it.
"There is no other way, this is the only way." Mo Yi said helplessly: "Only by making peace with Xingyi Technology can Alipay be connected to Changchao Payment, and Xingyi Technology can reduce the possibility of becoming a comprehensive e-commerce. Only Taobao can
I hope I have one less rival!"
"If the confrontation continues, it is estimated that Xingyi Technology will launch a comprehensive e-commerce at the beginning of next year. I even suspect that Xingyi Technology has begun to make plans now!"
"Seriously?" Jackma was startled: "Have they really started to develop comprehensive e-commerce?"
Mo Yi sighed: "The so-called soldiers and horses go ahead with food and grass before they move."
“The bread and butter in the e-commerce field is logistics.”
"And Xingyi Logistics has begun recruiting on a large scale!"
Liu Quanxin could no longer calm down: "President Mo, is this news true?"
Mo Yi nodded: "Last year, after Xingyi Technology took a stake in JD.com, Xingyi Logistics stopped continuing to expand and instead cooperated with JD.com. All areas that Xingyi Logistics cannot cover were handed over to JD Logistics."
Everyone nodded. This was a point that all Alibaba senior executives had paid attention to.
"According to the information I have, Xingyi Technology has now changed its strategy and continues to increase investment in Xingyi Logistics. It not only recruits a large number of people and expands, but also invests in the construction of new cities in many cities with insufficient coverage of the third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh tiers.
warehouse center and add a new team.”
"Xingyi Logistics is recruiting employees on such a large scale. It cannot be the second SF Express, focusing on logistics services. On the contrary, it must be preparing for comprehensive e-commerce!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded collectively.
The situation is too obvious.
Jack Ma was lost in thought and broke into a cold sweat.
If Taobao does not block Changchao Payment, Xingyi Technology may not be a comprehensive e-commerce company, or it may not be in a hurry to do so.
But now that Taobao has blocked Changchao Pay, whether it is for the development of Changchao Pay or to retaliate against Alibaba, Xingyi Technology must become a comprehensive e-commerce company.
To put it bluntly, they were all forced by Ali!
Forced out a powerful opponent, no less a terrifying opponent than QQ online shopping!
One QQ online shopping is enough to give him a headache. If there is another Xingyi Technology, it will be really troublesome.
It's a bit hard to accept that you really bow to Xingyi Technology.
After all, Ali also wants to save face.
Seemingly seeing through Jack Ma's thoughts, Mo Yi spoke again:
"Chairman, those who achieve big things don't stick to small details. Although Alibaba is very powerful, it will still be very stressful if it competes with giants such as QQ Online Shopping, Xingyi Technology, JD.com, and Amazon at the same time."
"It's better to take a step back temporarily, make peace with Xingyi Technology, connect to Changchao Payment, and let Xingyi Technology postpone its plan to become a comprehensive e-commerce platform."
"And we can use this time to kill QQ Online Shopping, JD.com and other competitors as soon as possible."
"When we defeat these existing rivals, we will be free to take action and have enough energy to develop Xingyi Technology's e-commerce business."
"It's a momentary show of weakness in exchange for long-term glory."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up, and even Liu Quanxin agreed:
"President Mo is right. QQ online shopping and JD.com are hard enough to deal with. We should not provoke Xingyi Technology and start a war on multiple fronts."
"It's best to concentrate our efforts first and kill a few existing opponents."
Others also said: "It makes sense, put the overall situation first, show weakness for a short period of time, bow your head, it's nothing."
"It is better to fight on multiple fronts than to fight on a daring basis."
"The most important thing is that once a war breaks out on multiple fronts, they will unite to attack us, Alibaba and Alipay, and the consequences will be disastrous."
…
Listening to everyone's words, Jack Ma nodded: "President Mo's words are right. He will live up to his will even though he is working hard, and Qinchuan will eventually belong to Chu!"
"It's really not suitable to start a war on multiple fronts. Then go to Xingyi Technology and have peace talks."
"Taobao, Tmall, and Alibaba can all re-connect to Changchao payment, but all major platforms under Xingyi Technology must also connect to Alipay. At the same time, the fingerprint payment of xphone 2pro is adapted to Alipay."
"Leave this matter to President Mo."
Mo Yi nodded: "Okay, Chairman, I'll have someone book a flight ticket and fly there tomorrow."
"Um."
Jack Ma sighed and his eyes became cold: "President Mo is in charge of Xingyi Technology, but it is time to intensify the suppression of online shopping on JD.com and QQ. These platforms have already threatened Alibaba, and they must not be allowed to continue.
Keep growing!”
"Next, start a special campaign!"
"Codename - 'Destroy the Goose and Zhendong'."
"Destroy the goose e-commerce with all your strength and suppress JD.com!"
"yes!"
Everyone responded that Ali had not fought a war for a long time, but every time he started a war he acted vigorously and resolutely.
Now it is open again, targeting QQ online shopping and JD.com.
Shopping malls are like battlefields, and the business wars between major giants are all plain and simple.
Usually, the acquisition invitation is first. If the acquisition fails, then war will begin directly.
The way to start a war is also simple, smearing public opinion, subsidizing money-burning price wars, robbing merchants, robbing terminals, robbing users...
As for tricks like pouring hot water on money trees, they are only used by small businesses, and big companies like Alibaba look down upon them.
However, some giants will make a fuss about their headquarters building, euphemistically calling it Feng Shui Bureau.
Like the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong, it is like a "big sword" with three blades that can kill in all directions.
A sharp blade rushed towards the Governor's Mansion, but a certain Governor had a heart attack and died...
A sharp edge rushed towards the British garrison of the last century, and the British collapsed...
A sharp edge rushed towards HSBC, and HSBC's stock price plummeted...
In order to deal with the "big sword", HSBC invited many Feng Shui masters to design two cannons to break the situation!
We also built a lot of mirrors to "counter evil".
We even built two bronze lions to suppress evil and drive away evil spirits.
Even the office layout of internal employees has been completely changed.
After one operation, HSBC's stock price stopped falling and soared.
But Wang Yi feels that everything is a coincidence, and those who do evil will be killed.
Making money from the Chinese people and throwing the blame at the expense of the Chinese people will not go far or last long!
Instead of believing in Feng Shui, it is better to be a company with some conscience.
On this day, xphone 2pro and Unbounded TV A40 and A50 were sold well all over the Internet, and all major logistics and warehouses were very busy.
The delivery boys even work overtime as a group, and some riders deliver more mobile phones than food delivery.
But this kind of business is very popular with riders.
Otherwise, when delivering food, you still have to wait for the meal to be delivered, but when delivering a mobile phone, the store has already prepared it, so you can just take it and leave.
Although he is busy, his income is also high.
After the press conference, my daily income was two or three times the usual amount.
If you can earn two or three days a day, it's worth being busy.
It's better than waiting all day, not being able to get orders, not being able to make money.
As for offline stores, they are extremely busy.
Although Wang Yi and Song Sining did not visit the store, they randomly checked the sales of several stores through monitoring.
In order to better supervise flagship stores and specialty stores, Xingyi cameras are installed in all stores and are all connected to the headquarters system for random inspections at any time.
It's not that Wang Yi doesn't trust stores, it's that he doesn't trust people's hearts.
He knew very well that when many brands were first released, specialty stores were out of stock. Scalpers had plenty of them, and the mobile phone store next door also had plenty of them, but they all cost a premium.
Why are specialty stores out of stock, while non-specialty stores and scalpers sell high-priced goods as much as they want?
Not even the store manager, but even the dealer, sold the first batch of goods to the scalpers and the mobile phone store next door at an additional price of 200, and the mobile phone store and scalpers increased the price by 500 and sold them to the customers!
The extra 200 earned by then will go into the store manager's pocket.
This kind of thing has been very common in recent years. No matter it is a domestic brand or Apple, no one is innocent.
Xingyi mobile phones, which are crazy hot-selling and often out of stock, are more likely to be manipulated in this way, and even dealers will do this.
The xphone 2pro starts at 5499, and scalpers sell it for 5999 and up!
Use fans and users as fat sheep.
This kind of behavior is actually very bad. It is completely equivalent to official scalping, and it is simply shameless.
Wang Yi naturally doesn't allow it.
To this end, on the one hand, the scale of stocking is increased.
The stocking volume increased from two million to five million, and now it is stocking tens of millions!
At the same time, all stores are required to install Xingyi cameras, all data are uniformly connected to the Xingyi cloud server, and the headquarters can check it at any time, and a regulatory agency is established.
The supply of goods is sufficient, and other stores are queuing up to sell to customers. If a certain store sells it to scalpers and users cannot buy it, then the store manager should stop working and be fired directly!
With these two methods, the suppression effect is very effective.
After other brands of mobile phones are released, fans have to pay extra to buy them, but most Xingyi mobile phones can be obtained immediately.
In particular, the Xphone 2pro has tens of millions of stocks in stock, so it is immediately available as soon as it goes on sale.
No one is willing to increase the price by 500 yuan for a product that can be bought at an affordable price.
After all, no one’s money comes from strong winds.
As a result, there will be more and more fans of Xingyi Technology, and fans of other brands will also abandon their secrets and become fans of Xingyi mobile phones.
"Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer scalpers of Xingyi mobile phones, especially the Xphone 2pro. We have to stock up tens of millions of dollars and go directly to the spot. The scalpers have stocked up the goods and can't sell them even if they increase the price by 50 yuan!"
Song Sining smiled and said: "Chairman, these two moves of yours killed the scalpers of Xingyi Technology directly."
Wang Yi shook his head: "The scalpers will never die, they are just changing the situation."
"Changing? What do you mean?" Song Sining was startled, and then suddenly realized: "You mean that the scalpers did not give up and switched to other brands one after another?"
“Some of them were transferred to other brands, and some were transferred to overseas!”
Wang Yi said meaningfully: "The domestic products are all in stock, and scalpers cannot do it. They go directly overseas to do it. Overseas, an xphone 2pro can be sold at a price increase of 200 US dollars, and you can sell it at will, and you can earn more than 1,000 yuan per unit."
Xingyi mobile phones are not publicly listed overseas, and parallel import prices start from the domestic price plus US$200.
The profits are considerable.
Domestic scalpers are envious. If they can't do anything at home, they will naturally move abroad.
Wang Yi continued: "They will form an organization, and some people will be responsible for purchasing goods in China, and then transport Xingyi mobile phones overseas through various methods."
"The other group of people are responsible for picking up goods overseas and selling them to foreigners and overseas Chinese."
"That's it." Song Sining suddenly realized: "Those scalpers all have some wealth, and they can earn more by developing abroad. Shouldn't we suppress this kind of behavior?"
Wang Yi nodded: "Of course. Not only will we not crack down on scalpers who smuggle overseas, but we will also support them. As long as the quantity is large, we can give them the distributor's price!"
The current acquisition of patents is not progressing so smoothly and is still under negotiation.
We still have to wait until the Xingyi mobile phone goes on sale overseas.
During this period, you have to rely on these scalpers to increase overseas sales.
"Chairman, if you prepare tens of millions of dollars for the xphone 2pro and make it available in stock at the beginning, you will stop domestic scalpers from thinking about it and force them to develop overseas and sell goods overseas, right?"
Song Sining guessed Wang Yi's meaning and was even more impressed: "It's really amazing. Even scalpers have been used by you to achieve the king's effect."
Wang Yi chuckled: "They make money, and we also make money. A mobile phone as good as the xphone 2pro cannot only be sold domestically, but also overseas. The more scalpers there are, the more overseas sales will be."
Wang Yi knows the strength of these scalpers. They are all human beings. They can endure hardships and stand hard work and even do whatever it takes to make money.
This group of people is of a different era. If they were placed in the 1980s, they would have become millionaires.
Of course, as a scalper, I resold iPhones before and later Xingyi phones, and I still made a lot of money.
"Yes, this can be considered a conspiracy. The scalpers know your thoughts and have no choice but to continue doing this, working for us for free and helping us ship goods!" Song Sining said with a smile.
"Yes, the most unsolvable thing is conspiracy." Wang Yi smiled faintly, looked at Song Sining, and his eyes suddenly became gentle.
Their eyes met, showing infinite tenderness.
But just when it was about to happen, Song Sining sighed: "Not today."
Wang Yi understood and changed the subject: "Then it's all your fault."
"Disgusting!" Song Sining said angrily, but still lowered his head...
It's unhygienic and disrespectful.
Song Sining only knows that her boyfriend must be pampered!
Just make him feel comfortable!
During the surveillance, long queues formed in various stores, queuing up to purchase.
But they were divided into three teams.
There is a queue for on-site purchase, so the queue is relatively slow.
The other team places orders online and checks coupons in stores to pick up the goods.
After checking the coupon, you can pick up the goods directly, which is much faster.
There is also a window specially provided for the takeaway guys.
A young man came over, carried a few prepared mobile phones, and left to deliver the goods to your door.
It is worth mentioning that many users who purchase on-site also use Changchao to scan the QR code to pay.
Now all Xingyi flagship stores, specialty stores, franchise stores, as well as Meiyou, Zhenyou, and Xingyue stores are equipped with QR code payment equipment.
All funds go into the company account.
There is no way, Xingyi Technology's store sales are too high. If there is a problem with the store owner and the entire money is taken away, the loss will be huge.
There are also long queues at the three major business halls!
This time the xphone 2pro was released, all three major business offices placed a lot of orders.
Among them, mobile orders accounted for the most orders, totaling 20 million units.
China Unicom and China Telecom each placed orders for 10 million units.
Of course, these 40 million orders will be delivered in installments.
For example, in the first launch, 2 million units were given to China Mobile, and 1 million units each were given to China Unicom and China Telecom.
Xingyi, Meiyou and Zhenyou stores have a total of 4 million.
The remaining 2 million units, as well as those recently produced by the factory, are used on major online platforms.
The excess inventory from subsequent factories will be distributed to offline or three major business halls according to the warehousing and logistics system.
It is precisely because of such high efficiency that the Xphone 2pro was sold out at the beginning.
The press conference was not over yet, and sales exceeded one million.
Within 24 hours of its debut, sales exceeded 4 million!
Within 48 hours of its launch, sales exceeded 6 million!
Within 72 hours of its launch, sales exceeded 7 million!
Completely breaking the previous sales record!
Fortunately, after three days, the daily sales dropped to about 500,000 units, otherwise it would be impossible to carry tens of millions of units in stock.
In fact, this hot-selling model can have such terrifying sales volume as long as it is not out of stock.
For example, when the iPhone was in its glory days, it was quickly sold out on the day of its launch, with 2 million units sold outright.
If tens of millions of iPhones are available in stock and sold globally, iPhone sales will exceed tens of millions on the first day.
But unfortunately, the iPhone does not have such terrifying courage. On the contrary, those who placed orders on the first day had to queue for weeks or even more than a month to get an iPhone.
Wang Yi dared to stock tens of millions of units because his own factory had abundant production capacity and could produce tens of millions of units per month.
The second is Xingyi + Meiyou + Zhenyou + Xingyue. The total number of stores of the four major brands exceeds 20,000, all of which have xphone 2pro showcases for sale.
On average, a store sells 10 units a day and 300 units a month. Twenty thousand stores can sell 6 million units a month!
Plus more than 30,000 business halls and stores, as well as major online channels!
There is no need to worry about stocking up tens of millions of goods, it may not even be enough.
Looking at the sales data, Song Sining was shocked: "At this pace, will the xphone 2pro be able to sell more than 18 million units in the first month of its launch?"
Wang Yi nodded: "About that, it can even be as high as 20 million. Even if the sales volume drops a little more every day, don't forget that there are also overseas parallel imports."
"Also, as the world's first mobile phone with fingerprint payment, foreigners are very enthusiastic about xphone 2pro."
Song Sining smiled and said, "By the way, when did you meet Ali's people? He came to the imperial capital from Hangzhou and learned that you had not returned to Jeju, so he came to Jeju again."
"It's just the vice president of Alibaba. You just go and see him." Wang Yi didn't care.
He has no interest in Ali.
I would rather cooperate with the Goose Factory than Jack Ma.
"Okay, then I'll go get in touch." Song Sining responded.
"You go ahead, I'll go back to my hometown."
In the evening, Wang Yi and his family held a family dinner.
Cook, who was far away in the empire, once again held another round of high-level meetings.
Seeing that the Xphone 2pro is selling like crazy and causing a sensation all over the world, Cook has been having trouble sleeping and eating in recent days.
"The popularity of the Xphone 2pro, with 7 million sold in three days, is incredible. It shows how much everyone loves fingerprint unlocking and fingerprint payment."
"But unfortunately, the fingerprint of our iPhone 5s is a push type, which is indeed a generation behind the touch type of the Xphone 2pro."
"In addition, the launch is half a year late, which will inevitably affect sales."
Everyone nodded:
"Yes, if it is launched half a year late and its functions are one generation behind, users will not buy it."
Cook continued: "So, I suggest modifying the fingerprint design of the iPhone 5S and changing it to a light touch similar to the xphone 2pro!"
"Yes, we must change it. If we don't change it, sales will definitely not get better."
"We can no longer lag behind the xphone 2pro, we have to change."
Many senior officials agreed.
But the director in charge of the supply chain looked ugly: "Chairman, it's easy to modify the plan, but our 5e keys are physically pressed. We have already ordered many components. If we have to change them now, we will suffer heavy losses."
"This..." Cook was speechless for a moment.
It will be launched in September. The components have been ordered in April. If you cancel now, you will need to pay liquidated damages.
"Hmph! Even if we pay liquidated damages, we still have to make changes. If we don't make changes, our sales of iPhone 5s will drop dramatically and our losses will be even worse."
"Yes, long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. For long-term considerations, it is better to modify it. It's just liquidated damages. If you pay it, you'll pay it."
"A bunch of laymen who don't understand technology!"
Apple R&D Director Lorne Dias couldn't stand it anymore and yelled: "You are talking lightly, is this a matter of modifying only one home button?"
"Once it is changed to a light-touch type, the iPhone 5e button will have to be changed from a mechanical home button that can be pressed to a home button that cannot be pressed."
"The internal components and technologies of the two are completely different. If it affects the whole body, not only the home button will have to be significantly changed, but the entire internal layout will have to be changed!"
Chapter completed!
