Chapter 1121 Logistics Development (4/10)
Feng Yu and Kirilenko's online shopping mall is also online. The b2c model is similar to Amazon, and the company directly faces individual customers.
But at the beginning, it is still in a state of absolute loss of money. At present, it is to cultivate users, one is to increase the number of registered users, and the other is to make users get used to buying products from the Internet.
However, at this time, the economy of Russia, or the entire Eastern Europe, is not doing well. If it were not for the rising prices of non-ferrous metals, the economy of Russia and other countries would be even worse.
Fortunately, Russia's agriculture has been vigorously developed in the past two years, and the demand for imported grain is getting lower and lower, which saves them a lot of expenditure.
However, the polarization between urban and rural areas in Russia is becoming more and more serious. The urban population continues to increase, while the rural population continues to decrease. In many places, there was originally a small town, but now there is no one there.
No one wants to live in a sparsely populated place. Family farms like the United States, Canada, and Australia are simply not suitable in Russia. This is a lot cheaper for people from China, especially those from Longjiang. It is more convenient to rent land here. up.
This can be regarded as a win-win situation. The land in Russia is not barren, and the farmers from China also get benefits.
Feng Yu felt at this time that he launched the online mall too early, just like Huaxia, it is only suitable for the b2b model at this time, and individuals rarely buy things on the Internet, at most they buy books or something.
It's not like before Feng Yu was reborn, some luxury goods were bought online, not to mention simple daily necessities.
Another point is also very helpless, that is, the development of logistics is still not good enough. For example, Huaxia, currently the three most famous logistics, one is the official postal service, and the other two are wind and rain logistics and downwind logistics drawn by the Yangtze River.
When Wang Wei founded Shunfeng Logistics, Feng Yuke asked someone to lend Wang Wei 100,000 yuan. Moreover, Wang Wei has never been asked to collect the bill, and I don't know whether Wang Wei still admits to this matter.
Feng Yu didn't intend to annex Shunfeng either. Although logistics makes money, it is enough to maintain cooperation in the future. He sometimes thinks that if one day he appeared in front of Wang Wei and told Wang Wei that I borrowed money to start your company, how would Wang Wei choose to repay him.
Is it to pay back the money ten times and a hundred times, or give him shares, or ask him what he wants. But no matter which one, Wang Wei's expression must be very exciting.
Just like one day, someone jumped in front of Feng Yu and told Feng Yu that you can be reborn because I changed the book of life and death, how will you repay me?
It is absolutely impossible for Feng Yu to ask himself to give everything he has to this person. But if the other party asked for money, Feng Yu felt that he might be willing to take even half of his money. But if the other party wants more, it's hard to say.
Feng Yu didn't intend to take advantage of the favor and ask Wang Wei to give him too much, but if he wants to say nothing, that's impossible. In his previous life, Wang Wei was a very mysterious person, he did not accept interviews, and there was very little news about him on the Internet. The company does not accept venture capital and definitely does not go public.
Although many people told Wang Wei that once your Shunfeng Logistics is listed, you will be able to squeeze into the top of China's richest list, and even the top of Asia's richest list.
But Wang Wei just asked the other party, why should I let Shunfeng go public? Shunfeng is profitable and has no shortage of funds, so why go public? Make money and distribute it to others. I've made money now, wouldn't it be good to share some more with my employees?
Such a person is very suitable for Feng Yu's appetite. Perhaps this person can become Feng Yu's friend.
From the three northeastern provinces to the Beijing-Tianjin region, wind and rain logistics has been able to reach cities, and even in many areas, it has achieved county towns. However, from the capital to the south, only the provincial capital and some major cities can be connected, and the operating outlets are far inferior to the postal service.
But with a better service attitude and faster speed, at least the logistics between provincial capitals, many people prefer wind and rain logistics, and the price can be cheaper. If long-term cooperation, there are some discounts.
In the south of the Yangtze River and several coastal provinces, Shunfeng logistics can also be connected to cities, even counties, and can also directly connect to Xiangjiang and Lisboa.
In other regions, it can only be the provincial capital.
In this way, the two logistics companies are already second only to the post office. Compared with the coexistence of so many logistics companies before Feng Yu's rebirth in the previous life, they are not as prosperous as they were at that time.
In the previous life, in addition to Shunfeng, Postal Service, there were also four eminent monks (Shen, Yuan, Zhong, and Hui) of Yunda, Kuokuo, Tiantian, ZJSong, and Tongzi, including Debang, DHL and other joint venture or foreign-funded logistics companies, which is not counted. What about provincial logistics companies?
It is also them who ensure the rapid development of the online shopping mall, and even many companies can guarantee that after placing an order, they will receive the goods the next day.
It can even be said that this has also led to another hot industry, that is, dispatchers. It is said that there are more than 300,000 couriers in the Shunfeng family alone, and there are definitely millions of people in the entire industry.
But now, Shunfeng only has more than 1,000 trucks, more than 20,000 employees, Fengyu Logistics has only more than 2,000 vehicles, and only more than 30,000 employees, not to mention, Shunfeng also had cargo planes in the previous life.
However, both Fengyu Logistics and Shunfeng Logistics can still guarantee profitability. Although they are not as large as the large logistics companies in the previous life, and the turnover is so high, they are not bad.
Russia is miserable. The logistics company is newly built. If it weren't for Kirilenko's own transportation business, the performance would have dropped by 90%!
Feng Yu found that he was a little too impatient. It doesn't mean that if you do it first, you can take advantage of it. In fact, if you do it now, you will suffer a bit.
If Russia started this online shopping mall and logistics company one or two years later, it would still be able to occupy the entire Eastern European market in time, and the expenditure would be lower, and it would be able to make profits faster.
It is only today that Feng Yu realizes that many things, if he makes his own decisions, he may fall into mistakes because of his conceit, without knowing it.
The next time you make a decision, should you ask others, such as Zong Qingxian, Kameda Masao, Fu Rongqi, etc., at least they are much better than themselves in some aspects.
And when making a decision, you should also do some market research. There have been some changes in this world. Although the general trend remains the same, some time points must be different.
Feng Yu pinched his chin and considered, should he form a staff group? It seems a little redundant.
Feng Yu knows that he is not the kind of person who can listen to suggestions. A staff member may have to drink tea and play games on the Internet every day, which will not be of any real effect.
Forget it, when you do something in the future, think more about it. Fortunately, this small loss doesn't matter, and it will definitely bring him more benefits in the future.
