Chapter 1034: Visiting for Advice

As soon as he entered Liu Qiangdong's office, Li Dong was slightly taken aback.

There are several leaflets on the desktop in the office.

"The No. 1 store is online!"

Li Dong slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "Shop No. 1 was acquired by Jingdong?"

Liu Qiangdong was a little surprised, smiled and said: "Mr. Li remembered it wrong, the No. 1 store is our new business, why do we talk about mergers and acquisitions?"

"Your new business?"

Liu Qiangdong nodded and said: "It was just launched on the 1st of this month, and President Li probably didn't notice it.

After all, there are many businesses in the distance, and Mr. Li probably doesn't have time to pay attention to them. "

Li Dong smiled and didn't speak, but was slightly startled in his heart.

History has changed again!

No. 1 store, it seems that it was launched at this time in the previous life, but it was not JD.com at first.

No. 1 shop had a lot of fate, and it was the first supermarket in the world.

It can be said that there is no e-commerce in the “supermarket” in the past. Even though Taobao’s Tmall mall has been launched, in fact, Tmall was not operated as a supermarket at the beginning.

Taobao seldom does self-operation, even Tmall is actually a third-party settlement.

It was not until 2010 that Taobao launched the self-operated Tmall supermarket.

And JD.com was still concentrating on making 3c electrical appliances at that time.

Unlike in this life, Yuanfang started to do this as early as 2006, and in the past few years, it has become more and more in the category of "supermarket".

When Li Dong first started doing e-commerce, he actually did it with the idea of ​​online business super.

Being able to come to the present is actually beyond Li Dong's expectations.

Let's get down to business.

The No. 1 store in the previous life was originally jointly established by Yu Gang and Liu Junlin.

And these two people, before the establishment of No. 1 store, were executives of Dell.

Before Yu Gang joined Dell,

He is also the vice president of Amazon's global supply chain.

Their establishment of Yihaodian may also be influenced by Amazon.

In this life, Li Dong has never paid much attention to these things.

Unexpectedly, No. 1 shop still arrived as scheduled.

There are no twists and turns in the previous life, it was not acquired by Ping An in 2010, it was not acquired by Wal-Mart in 2011, and it was not acquired by JD.com in 2016.

When Li Dong was reborn in his previous life, JD.com just announced the acquisition of Yihaodian.

Li Dong was quite impressed by this.

Unexpectedly, everything has changed in this life, and No. 1 store has directly become the self-operated business of JD.com.

While Li Dong was still in a daze, Jiang Heming, the vice president of business, was not as bold as Liu Qiangdong.

As soon as Liu Qiangdong finished speaking, Jiang Heming said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Li, have you heard of No. 1 store?"

I haven't heard of it, how can I talk about mergers and acquisitions.

The No. 1 store has just been launched, and it was not well-known before.

If Li Dong knew the No. 1 store from JD.com, it would be unreasonable to ask such a question.

But if not, how did he know about No. 1 shop?

At this moment, Li Dong also reacted. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "I remember someone told me that No. 1 shop has something to do with Yu Gang?"

As soon as Li Dong said Yu Gang, Jiang Heming and Liu Qiangdong were relieved.

Same name, same business, sometimes the inertia of history is scary.

No. 1 store was indeed founded by Yu Gang and his wife.

But now it is different from the previous life. In the previous life, they operated independently because they saw an opportunity and stood on the market.

At that time, they were the trendsetters.

This life is different, the behemoth in the distance stands in front of him, and with the strength of the No. 1 store, it operates independently, and cannot escape the fate of being eliminated.

Similar to Wal-Mart's choice, in the end Yu Gang and the others reached an agreement with JD.com.

JD.com is the controlling shareholder, while Yu Gang’s team is in charge of project operations.

There is no need to hide this matter, when Li Dong asked, Liu Qiangdong smiled and said: "The No. 1 store project was developed by Mr. Yu, and now Mr. Yu is in charge of the operation.

In fact, it is a small project, and it is incomparable with Yuanfang. "

"President Liu is too self-effacing." Li Dong said with a smile: "Now that JD.com has completed its layout in the field of 3C electrical appliances, it seems that it will expand its business scope.

Store No. 1 was launched, food department stores, and JD.com also started.

In my opinion, it won’t be long before JD.com will have a place in China’s e-commerce industry. "

The reason why a good man is a good man is because no matter what setbacks or troubles he encounters, he can always find a way to solve them and find a way to rise.

Is Liu Qiangdong considered a genius?

At least in Li Dong's opinion, it must be one.

When Taobao had already dominated China and Asia, JD.com’s annual transaction volume was less than 100 million.

Around 2008, if anyone put JD.com and Taobao side by side, he might be sprayed to death.

Jingdong?

Which onion?

Can I eat it?

Except for some niche customers who specialize in buying electrical appliances, who knows who JD.com is.

But it was this little-known e-commerce company that made people across the country remember it, JD.com, and Liu Qiangdong at a leaping speed.

Now, Liu Qiangdong can almost be said to be a replica of Li Dong.

And Li Dong has a prophet, that's why he did this.

However, Liu Qiangdong has no, no prophet, no fortuitous encounter, relying on his own vision and ability, he has reached that step.

This kind of person is not considered a good person, how many other people are considered good people?

In 2008, many things have already been settled. None of the giants that can really rise after 2008 is simple.

...

office.

Li Dong quickly calmed down. The appearance of the No. 1 store in Jingdong really surprised him.

But the surprise is the surprise, without the reputation of the founder, No. 1 store is just like Liu Qiangdong said, a small business.

It is nothing more than JD.com expanding its scope of operations, involving the ranks of food department stores.

As for whether it can become famous, it's hard to say, at least the public now recognizes Yuanfang Mall more than the No. 1 store that just launched.

Li Dong didn't ask about it again, and sat down in the reception area with Liu Qiangdong.

The reception area is small and crude.

Not to mention the comparison with Li Dong, compared with some billionaires, Liu Qiangdong's office is too simple and shabby.

The big Qiangzi now has no publicity and enjoyment in the future.

He is in the development stage of his career, and he will spend every penny in pieces.

Both parties took their seats, seeing Li Dong looking at his office, Liu Qiangdong laughed at himself: "Mr.

Just like a new term that Mr. Li said at the beginning, I am a "trickster", and I haven't reached the point of enjoying it yet.

Nowadays, I am left thousands of miles away by Yuanfang and Taobao. Sometimes I wish I could close JD.com. "

Li Dong shook his head with a smile and said: "Mr. Liu, please don't be modest, starting a business is like this.

Everyone has come out of hardships.

When Yuanfang was first established, we didn't even have a headquarters. We only had a supermarket in the provincial capital.

At that time, hundreds of us worked in the office area behind the supermarket, and the days passed.

The ancients said: Difficulties and hardships, jade Ru Yucheng.

Who can appreciate the hardships of starting a business without suffering a little bit. "

"Taught." Liu Qiangdong cupped his hands, then smiled wryly: "The point is, I have not been starting a business for a day or two.

Since 1998, I have been selling CDs in Zhongguancun.

Now 10 years have passed in the blink of an eye, and looking back, I am filled with emotion. "

"Gold always shines. How many people are still fighting for a house in 10 years.

Now Jingdong is also a top-ranked e-commerce mall in China, why should Mr. Liu feel sorry for it. "

Li Dong said a few words politely, in fact he was really polite.

Liu Qiangdong doesn't need him to teach, people like them, they say they can't do it, but they are very tenacious in their bones.

In front of Li Dong, Liu Qiangdong has no capital to be proud of.

In front of others, Liu Qiangdong is a model of success.

At the age of 34, he is now worth over 100 million yuan.

With the age of 40 as the boundary, how many self-made wealthy generations in China can compare with him?

The two chatted politely for a while, then Li Dong went straight to the point and said, "Mr. Liu, I'm here today because I have some doubts, and I want to ask Mr. Liu for advice."

Upon hearing this, Liu Qiangdong quickly said: "Mr. Li, don't joke with me like this, I can't bear it."

Not only Liu Qiangdong, but even Jiang Heming, who was listening beside him, felt that Li Dong was here to tease the boss this time.

You Li Dong came to ask Liu Qiangdong for advice?

Who in the outside world doesn't know that you, Li Dong, have a vicious vision, take one step and see three steps, and do business without any disadvantages, so why do you need to ask the head of Jingdong?

In front of others, Liu Qiangdong still has the right to be proud, but in front of Li Dong, he has no such intentions.

But he didn't want to, Li Dong said seriously: "Mr. Liu, I'm serious.

It is obvious that I listen and listen. I am a person who rarely listens to other people's opinions, and rarely asks others what I should do.

But recently, I feel that I have entered a bottleneck.

Yuanfang's business, including Yuanfang Mall, has reached a bottleneck.

On the PC side, we have more registered users than Taobao, and our product categories are no less than Taobao.

Our price, among other things, is at least lower than his price on Tmall.

Our logistics is also the fastest logistics.

But the result is that our transaction volume is still not as good as that of the other party.

Outsiders say that there is no comparable space between c2c and b2c.

Even the people in our company persuaded me that the transaction volume is not the only measure.

But I'm just wondering, why does this happen?

If you want to say that they have more users than us, the logistics is faster than us, and the price is much cheaper than us, I will not say anything.

But the point is, they didn't.

Now Taobao is starting to prepare plans again.

Ma Yun wants to build a big data center, to do cloud computing, to open Taobao City, to do rookie logistics...

But in fact, they didn't accomplish anything. At this stage, I don't think Yuanfang should be weaker than Taobao. "

Li Dong asked seriously, and Liu Qiangdong and Jiang Heming gradually stopped joking.

After Li Dong finished speaking, he showed the intention of asking for advice, Liu Qiangdong thought for a while before saying: "I actually have a little opinion on this point. Since President Li asked, then I will throw a brick to attract jade and say a few simple words."

Li Dong said seriously: "President Liu, please tell me."

"Mr. Li should have heard that Han Shan is right.

In the past, Han Shan asked Shide: The world slanders me, deceives me, humiliates me, laughs at me, despises me, despises me, hates me, and lies to me. How to deal with it?

Shi De replied: Just endure him, let him, let him, avoid him, endure him, respect him, ignore him, stay for a few more years, just watch him.

I will also send this sentence to Mr. Li.

I won’t say why Taobao can go beyond the distance with few users. In fact, Mr. Li should have a good idea.

Because they have many third-party merchants, most of them are private merchants.

Counterfeit goods are rampant, the cost is low, and swiping orders is a common practice.

Is their transaction volume real and reliable?

What about the distance, is it true and reliable?

Some things can only be fooled by outsiders, but not by us.

In a few years, Mr. Li, just look at him!

Mr. Li is actually not in a bottleneck now, but in a hurry. "

"Anxious?"

Li Dong pondered slightly, and did not speak in a hurry.

Liu Qiangdong nodded and said: "I'm in a hurry, in fact, ever since I met Mr. Li at the charity night, I think you are too impatient.

The layout of Yuanfang Mall is the best and the best choice in my opinion.

E-commerce + physical stores + self-operated logistics, and I think Mr. Li also has a layout in terms of big data.

There is also your self-contained payment system, which combines five advantages, and it is too late for others to envy you.

I have always been envious of the layout of Yuanfang Mall, which is perfect and very competitive.

What Jingdong wants to go now is actually Mr. Li's path.

But our foundation is too weak, and I don't have the determination and perseverance of Mr. Li, so I can't do this for the time being.

Mr. Li is already perfecting this layout now, so why rush for a while.

I'm sure that in no more than three years, Yuanfang will definitely catch up with Taobao.

And as long as it catches up, Taobao will never have a chance to overtake.

Now you are in a hurry to eat all the food you have eaten for several years. In fact, many companies that learn from afar are a little worried.

Yuanfang is actually our benchmark. If there is a problem with Yuanfang, I think many people will be confused about the future. "

Jiang Heming on the side also interjected: "Mr. Li, we have always admired you.

We all feel very honored that you came to seek advice from Mr. Liu this time.

But there is one thing I want to say. In fact, it is not that Yuanfang is not as good as Taobao, but that things still need a time process of transformation.

The fault of Yuan Fang is that the speed of rise is too fast.

We haven't changed our consumption patterns, and we haven't changed our consumption habits.

At this time, it is actually like brewing wine. The previous processes have been completed, and we just wait for the fermentation.

The distance is now in this fermenting period.

As long as this period is passed, I think that no matter how many actions Taobao does, it is actually useless. "

Li Dong was thoughtful, and after a while he said: "Then what do you think, what I have to do now is to wait?"

Jiang Heming was about to nod, but Liu Qiangdong shook his head and said, "Wait, maybe it's a solution.

But I always felt that Lee and I were always the same kind of people.

Waiting happens when the strength is not enough, such as me now.

However, Mr. Li has reached this point now, and there is no need to wait any longer, but to take the initiative. "

Li Dong suddenly became interested, and said: "Take the initiative? Fight a price war? Restrain the development of Taobao? Or continue to provoke an e-commerce war?"

Liu Qiangdong was startled, I'll go, don't make this guy start a real war.

Li Dong is not a weak person, nor is he a person who is afraid of things. If he really wants to start a big war now, Taobao can say that they can't bear it.

It is even said that at this stage, JD.com is in a period of rapid development, and Liu Qiangdong does not want to start a war.
