Chapter 344: Seeking skin from a tiger
Chapter 344: Seeking skin from a tiger
As a group buying website, the current group buying is indeed not enough to attract Alibaba.
Because when the issue of financial licenses is resolved, the market for group buying websites will be reshuffled. Whether it is , , or , in Ali's view, the one that can survive to the end is the one worth " Cooperation" partner.
Although a college student entrepreneurial project can survive well in the local area, once it reaches the national poker table, it really has no cards to play.
But when the document rewritten by Jiang Qin was opened, everything changed.
They may not care about a small group buying website, but the other party claims that it has market channels for college students across the country and is also a representative of Linchuan business district, which makes them a little surprised.
The person who has been in contact with Sun Zhi is called Wang Qianqian, who is a business manager of the Alipay project.
She was quite puzzled when she received Sun Zhi's email. She didn't expect that even after she clearly expressed her rejection, the other party still refused to give up.
But when she opened the email and saw the name in the attachment, she knew she had made a mistake. If what was said in the plan was true, then this cooperation meeting would have exceeded her decision-making authority.
So she submitted the document to her superior and waited patiently, and ended up having a dinner party.
Mr. Pang, Zhihu controls the university city market across the country. With our two institutions becoming strategic partners, everything in the future will become very smooth.
But after a little research, Mr. Jiangs Zhihu has only promoted it in 21 cities, which is far from the so-called nationwide, and its a bit bragging.
"Really? It's already twenty-one, damn, the news I received here is the twentieth one."
Jiang Qin looked at the woman opposite and smiled: "But it's not a big problem. It will be a matter of time before Zhihu enters universities across the country. By then, I hope to create a new future with your company."
The woman sitting opposite Boss Jiang is called Pang Rui. She has just been transferred to the Alipay project. Although the position has not been determined yet, everyone knows that the chairman will arrange for her to be the CEO.
Pang Rui is a very kind woman. She listened to Jiang Qin talking while eating, but she was not angry because of his bragging. Instead, she smiled all the time.
Jiang Qin understands that the more such a person is, the more difficult it is to deal with it, because you don't know which of his words she is interested in.
Then, what do you mean when you say you have mastered the most popular market brand in the future? Pang Rui suddenly asked.
"The plan briefly mentioned a strategic cooperation project called Linchuan First Station Plan. To put it bluntly, it is to use the Internet to market Linchuan's local brands. They haven't become popular yet, but they will soon. Fire."
Is it the cake painted on the wall again? Pang Rui was a little confused.
Jiang Qin coughed: "Similar to Zhihu's plans to enter universities across the country, it is certain that they will take over the national market. I think the results should be seen in the second half of the year. After Alipay obtains the financial license, the most important thing is to attract users , to develop the publics consumption habits, I think you may need some chain-operated offline stores to promote the process of Alipay replacing traditional payments.
We havent even gotten the permit yet, but Mr. Jiang has already thought about the follow-up matters for us?
"Of course, I smile when I think about it. Mr. Pang, think about it. You can enter the market of university cities across the country through Zhihu channels, and you will suddenly have a large number of registered users. It is still the easiest to accept online shopping." College students, on the other hand, all chain companies in our Linchuan Business Group will also give priority to recommending everyone to use Alipay for offline payment."
Pang Rui stopped her chopsticks: "What is Alipay offline payment? I don't seem to understand."
Jiang Qin made a square sign: "It's like having something electronic, just like a barcode. Once you scan it, it will drip, and the user's money will drip into the hands of the merchant."
In addition, regarding the brand he said will be popular all over the country in the future, this sentence seems like nonsense, but Pang Rui feels that this may not be just nonsense.
There is a marketing plan for herbal tea beverages mentioned in the plan. From her perspective, which she has been working in the market for many years, as long as the owner of this brand is not stupid, it will definitely become famous throughout the country in the future.
What does Alipay need to pay? You only need to give a first-tier cooperation quota, and then pay a nominal promotion fee.
The most important thing is that there is no other capital behind the group buying. By raising it and then acquiring it, Alibaba will be able to take the lead in both community group buying and Internet e-commerce.
What's more, campus social networking sites with extremely high verticality are also a big asset.
As a candidate for CEO, Pang Rui came to meet a little-known college student entrepreneur. Of course, she wanted more than just what was in the plan.
Of course, Jiang Qin is also a talent in her heart, and if she can digest him, it would be a very good choice.
Its really interesting to chat with Mr. Jiang, but lets not get too deep into the conversation. Lets talk about the price. What is your expected promotion fee?
Im not interested in money. My goal is to make Pintuan and Alipay the first-tier strategic partners. If I give you a certain amount, Mr. Pang will take care of it.
Okay, lets wish this cooperation a success. Pang Rui picked up the wine glass.
Jiang Qin picked up the wine glass, drank it all in one gulp, took out his chopsticks, and picked up the only thing he ate at this banquet, tiger skin and chicken feet.
At eight o'clock in the evening on the 6th, in the Hilton Hotel in Qingdao, Sun Zhi opened his mouth wide and did not speak for a long time after listening to his boss recounting the process of last night's discussion.
It turns out that the real game is to exchange something that you dont have for something that others dont have? Shame, this is too coquettish.
"But boss, why did you only eat one tiger skin and chicken feet, and why do you have to emphasize it?"
Because I am seeking skin from a tiger.
Jiang Qin held a can of beer, leaned against the window sill, and took two sips. His eyes were colorfully reflected by the neon lights outside the window.
Why did Alibaba directly reject Jiang Qinfangs request for cooperation in the first place?
In fact, it is because they feel that it is not necessary to intervene in the group buying market too early. What if they support a junk product and eventually die in the market competition?
I will wait until everyone has almost finished competing, and then I will just buy the best one.
Now, this cooperation agreement uses the college student market as a weight, allowing Alibaba to make early choices and intervene in the group buying market. In fact, Jiang Qin personally exposed himself to the crisis.
But he had no other choice.
The group-buying was restricted to Linchuan for a whole year and he just had to wait for Alipay. At this stage, he had no choice because among all third-party payment software, only Alipay and WeChat Pay were the future.
However, the emergence of WeChat Pay will have to wait for another three years. Jiang Qin cannot afford to wait, and the market will not leave him three years, so the only option he can choose is Alipay.
However, group buying websites and e-commerce websites are in a competitive relationship to a certain extent. Once they gain momentum, some people will definitely say with relief that the pigs raised by their own hands have finally become fat, so have a good New Year!
However, if you want to kill me, you have to ask me whether the nine-tooth nail rake in my old pig's hand will answer.
