Chapter 2108: Hurry

"So you know a lot," Xiang Xiaofang whispered to her bestie as they walked to the dining table, "Then why do you never care about the company's affairs?"

"Because I'm young, I'm lazy, but I'm not stupid," Fu Yunning said something that left Xiang Xiaofang speechless.

"Come on, Vincent, sit with me," she ran over with a smile.

Xiang Xiaofang is a little worried now, worried that this girl will find a foreigner in the future because she likes Vincent so much, hoping to have a beautiful mixed-race child.

However, she shouldn't be that stupid!

But looking at her baby look at Vincent, it's hard to say.

In addition to Feng Yiping and his son, there was another man at dinner, Lao Ma who hurried over.

Feng Yiping's dinner here, or Feng Yiping's dinner after returning to China, is almost always a party.

He rarely attends social events at night, and now there are few people who can let him attend social events at night.

But with so many company leaders in China, there are naturally a lot of work to discuss. Arranging these conversations during dinner not only takes a long time, but also has a friendly format.

Therefore, this period is an important period for Wu Qian to arrange Feng Yiping to talk about work with the leaders of various companies.

Of course, when he came here, the one who ate with him the most in the evening, besides Jin Ling and others, was Lao Ma.

He also had the same troubles as Fu Yunning and Xiang Xiaofang.

Until now, not everyone can keep a normal mind when eating with him, but Lao Ma is an exception.

"I toast everyone and wish you a good appetite," Feng Yiping raised his glass.

Immediately, other glasses filled with various kinds of drinks, from white wine to red wine to beer to soda to juice to herbal tea to milk..., were raised one after another.

Even Amanda and Vincent were no exception.

After his symbolic toast, it was time for free dining. Everyone started eating and talking about whatever they wanted.

The girls asked each other to pass something, and if they felt that there was not enough, they would notify the restaurant below to prepare some more... For a moment, both sides of the long table were like a big family dinner, very lively.

However, there were no majestic elders on this table, only easy-going peers, more like a group of good friends having dinner - this is the main reason why Fu Yunning likes to eat at Feng Yiping's place.

The topic of the girls soon inevitably turned to clothing and cosmetics, discussing the new autumn products of major brands.

Including Fang Yingzhi, they are not short of money, and none of them is crazy about bags, but they are very fond of the latest clothing.

For them who have no home yet, this is the best reward for their hard work.

Coincidentally, Feng Yiping and Lao Ma talked about this issue today.

The main dishes of him and Lao Ma today are both lobsters, but he drank dark beer and Lao Ma drank white wine. Of course, neither of them thought there was anything wrong with this, and I believe no one dared to say that they were wrong to match the wine like this.

"Look," Feng Yiping pointed to the girls who were discussing enthusiastically over there, "There are more and more people like them, that is, more and more women like them who are not satisfied with shopping in China,"

Generally speaking, those well-known brands will always be late in stocking goods in China, and people like Jin Ling naturally don't want to wear those new products after they have become common goods, so choosing to go shopping abroad has naturally become their inevitable choice.

"This is a good opportunity for us,"

"From the current point of view, there are indeed many excellent clothing brands abroad that have not entered China. I think our mall is a good platform,"

"You see, they will save a lot of trouble if they enter our mall,"

"Opening a physical store is indeed not a simple matter, not to mention the investment in their flagship stores,"

The investment in those luxury flagship stores is at least hundreds of millions, which is not a small expense for anyone.

"An even bigger benefit is that our platform is a cross-regional platform, which means that we can help them save more than just the cost of a flagship store,"

"Yes, this is indeed a great opportunity for us," Lao Ma nodded in agreement, "You see, when we first went abroad, everyone wanted to bring back some big items, and then our domestic home appliances became popular, and when people went abroad, they mostly brought maternal and child products, such as milk powder, diapers, and some nutritional supplements for friends,"

"Now, it is mainly cosmetics and clothing,"

What he said should be his own personal experience, and it is also the history of the changes in Chinese people's cross-border shopping in the past few decades.

In other words, it is a true portrayal of our consumption upgrade.

"Do you believe that there will be many people buying snacks and furniture from abroad in the future," Feng Yiping said.

Because many of the post-00s and post-10s in the future will be influenced by their parents' consumption habits since childhood, familiar with the dazzling array of goods from all over the world since childhood, and have a global perspective since childhood. After becoming consumers, they will naturally become global consumers.

Lao Ma thought for a while, "I believe there will be such demand, but it will only be possible after our supply chain is very complete, from procurement channels to warehouses to logistics, everything is in place,"

"Building a warehouse in a bonded area is also a good idea,"

Feng Yiping touched him and said, "In five years, I think we will have no problem in this regard."

"No problem, at worst I can lose a few more pounds," Lao Ma said with a "sizzling" sound, finishing the small glass of white wine and rolling up his sleeves.

He knows only too well that if cross-border e-commerce is started from now on in a down-to-earth manner, it can be said that they do not need to be afraid of anyone's challenge in e-commerce.

"But we still have to hurry up. This is still an emerging field and the relevant supervision is relatively loose," Feng Yiping said in a low voice with a smile.

Lao Ma also smiled and said knowingly, "This is also a magic weapon for us to attract customers,"

The so-called relevant supervision is relatively easy, mainly referring to taxes. Now through unpacking and other methods, relevant taxes, such as personal postal taxes, etc. can be effectively avoided.

As a result, many products on their platform will naturally be cheaper than in physical stores.

This is the benefit of those who eat crabs first.

"However, this will definitely be a problem in the future," Lao Ma also said.

"Yes, the supervision of this area will have to catch up sooner or later." Feng Yiping is not sure when the country will adjust the taxation of cross-border e-commerce, but that is inevitable.

“I think it is necessary to proactively report this issue to relevant departments. In the future, more and more Chinese will choose to travel abroad. Based on our economic development trend and population base, in five to ten years, more than 100 million people will travel abroad. Traveling abroad is also common,”

"It is conceivable that at least half of their overseas spending should be on buying goods abroad,"

"In that case, production, consumption, taxation and services all remain abroad, and if our cross-border business can be done well, it will definitely be able to divert a large part of this consumption back to China,"

This is one of the reasons why Feng Yiping is determined to invest heavily in cross-border e-commerce from now on.

"Your perspective is very good. I will let them refine your idea," Lao Ma said. "It seems that next time, I will have more topics to discuss with them."

Perhaps because of the failure of previous cooperation with ministries and commissions, Lao Ma is now very active in communicating with various departments.

…………

No matter how lively the banquet is, there will always be an end. At ten o'clock in the evening, Feng Yiping came out of the children's room and looked at the empty hall, and he couldn't help but feel a little lonely.

He even had the idea of ​​going out for a walk, such as nightclubs, nightclubs, etc.

However, he shook his head. He was not that free now.

Yes, work hard.

He had just read an email from Zuckerberg and was about to reply to him when his phone vibrated again. When he looked at the caller ID, he became interested and said, "Hi Kidman."

"Call me Nicole," the other said emphatically.

"Okay Nicole," Feng Yiping checked the time, "Did you just wake up, or are you going to sleep?"

"Haha," the other person chuckled, making Feng Yiping's heart tremble.
