Chapter 200 The trick merchant

When Lu Qingyu arrived at Tengda, Cheng Fangyuan, Lin Kexin and Meng Fanxiang were already waiting for him in the conference room.

"What's the situation? Let's talk about it in detail!" Lu Qingyu sat down and said to Meng Fanxiang.

Meng Fanxiang handed Lu Qingyu a piece of information and said, "Mr. Lu, this is the announcement released by Ali's father's official website just now. They will be online for retail e-commerce website Taobao.com."

Lu Qingyu took the information and glanced quickly.

As expected, what he guessed was right. As soon as Dabao.com started, it aimed at the c2c model with more potential and profitability.

That is, they recruit merchants to settle in Dabao.com and sell their personal products to individuals, and they earn service fees and deposit profits in the middle.

"Manager Cheng, how is the progress of the merchant version of Taotao.com that I asked you to do before?" Lu Qingyu asked at Cheng Fangyuan.

Cheng Fangyuan immediately replied: "Mr. Lu, the development of the merchant version of Taotao.com has been completed and passed the test, and can be launched at any time!"

Lu Qingyu nodded: "Okay! Go back today and do another test to ensure that the Taotao.com merchant version is available at any time."

"Okay, Mr. Lu!" Cheng Fangyuan agreed.

"Also, how is the progress of Taotao.com going online in provincial capitals?" Lu asked again.

Cheng Fangyuan was prepared and blurted out: "The preliminary preparations have been completed, and the tasks of these cities have been added to Doudizhu, and preheating and drainage are underway."

Lu Qingyu nodded, then looked at Lin Kexin and asked, "Sister Lin, what is the progress of Dongfeng Express's layout in the provincial capital?"

Lin Kexin was also prepared and said, "Dongfeng Express's offices in all provincial capital cities have been established, and the city supervisors and administrative personnel have been in place, and couriers are being recruited urgently."

Lu Qingyu nodded, very satisfied with the progress.

Dongfeng Express is different from Taotao.com. The former is a physical business model, while the latter is an online business model.

The physical business model requires a lot of manpower, and it will definitely not be able to complete all personnel in such a short time.

It is not easy to have such speed.

"Sister Lin, please help me improve your speed as soon as possible and strive to complete the layout in the provincial capital city in the shortest time." Lu Qingyu said.

"I understand, don't worry, I promise to let Dongfeng Express start operating in all provincial capital cities within 15 days!" Lin Kexin issued a military order for himself.

Lu Qingyu smiled and said, "Sister Lin, you don't have to be so stressed. Although the domestic express delivery industry is not too developed now, it can still ensure that every city has coverage."

"So, even if our Dongfeng Express has not yet covered so many cities, the things we sell on Taotao can still be delivered to consumers."

"Dongfeng Express is just an important bargaining chip in our competition with our opponents. Our current speed is no longer something that competitors can't catch up with even flying planes."

Lin Kexin nodded: "I understand, Mr. Lu, but I will still speed up to ensure that this chip can be used at any time."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Sister Lin!" Lu Qingyu nodded and said.

Lu Qingyu looked at the three of them and continued: "Now that Dabao.com is coming in full force, we must launch the merchant entry function before them."

"Manager Meng, don't consider anything else. Just from a technical perspective, how long will it take for Taotao.com to be online in all cities across the country!" Lu Qingyu asked Meng Fanxiang.

Meng Fanxiang thought for a few seconds and replied: "Technically speaking, this process is not difficult, and all cities can be launched in one day."

Lu Qingyu thought for a while and said, "Okay, then you go back and prepare immediately, and prepare to open Taotao.com in all county-level and above cities across the country."

"In addition, let us inform you of all websites, software and games under Tengda's name first. We will open investment promotions on Taotao.com! Everyone can become bosses! Everyone can sell things on Taotao.com!"

"As for the payment method, we tentatively set it up. As long as the merchant can enter Taotao.com before the end of August, we will be exempted from the service fee for life."

"But the deposit cannot be short. Taotao.com will evaluate based on the strength and scale of the merchants entering the market, and then charge a certain amount of deposit based on the evaluation results."

"This margin will be refunded after the shop cooperation is completed. The purpose of collecting the margin is actually to prevent fake goods from appearing on Taotao.com."

"Selling fake products is the red line of Taotao.com, and no one can touch it. If we find that the merchant sells fake products, all deposits will be confiscated and will not be returned."

Meng Fanxiang agreed while recording on the notebook: "I understand, Mr. Lu!"

Lu Qingyu turned his gaze to Fangyuan and continued: "Manager Cheng, as for Taotao.com's early business model, temporarily maintains the operation of the existing city, and will not expand for the time being. First, focus on investment promotion!"

"Your task is to negotiate cooperation with those big brands, such as high-end brands such as big brand clothing, accessories, luggage, etc., as well as big brand clothing like Metersbonway!"

"We must do everything possible to reach cooperation with these big brands. These brands are the key to our popularity. In addition to margin, you will set other preferential policies. I will not set any restrictions!"

"As for those small brands, our principle is to welcome them warmly, but the same thing is that the deposit cannot be avoided! Such a brand can absorb as much as it can!"

"I will complete the investment promotion for small brands. You are only responsible for checking and signing cooperation agreements. Do you understand?"

Cheng Fangyuan nodded: "I understand, Mr. Lu, please ensure that you complete the task!"

Lu Qingyu nodded and continued: "The next few months will be Taotao, which is the most critical period for Tengda Technology. Whether e-commerce can be successful will depend on how far we can go."

"So, I hope everyone can work hard to complete their tasks. The day when we defeat our opponents is the time for us to achieve success!"

"Yes! Mr. Lu! Ensure the completion of the task!" the three of them shouted in unison.

After the meeting, the three of them immediately returned to their jobs to arrange their work.

On the other hand, Malaysia, far away in Hangzhou, is always busy at this moment.

"Is there any reaction on Taotao.com?" asked Malaysian General.

"Not yet, Mr. Ma!" someone replied.

"Okay, the Investment and Promotion Department, have you formulated the charging standards for merchants entering?" Malaysian General continued to ask.

Someone immediately replied: "I have planned it, Mr. Ma, after accounting, it is most reasonable for us to charge a 2% service fee while ensuring that our interests are maximized while satisfying franchisees."

When the Malaysian general heard this, he thought for a while and said, "No! This is not possible! We want to do it for free!"

"Free?" Everyone was stunned. If it was free, wouldn't it be a charity? How can the company make a profit?

Malaysia always smiled and said, "Actually, free is just a gimmick, just a routine merchant!"
