Chapter 702 How come there is a private car (page 12)
On New Year's Eve, bits of snow began to fall from the sky, but there were only sporadic patches.
Gaode’s employees have been working overtime during the Spring Festival, as if they were catching up on something, and finally went home to have a reunion dinner with their families today.
At this time, WeChat red envelopes were quietly launched, detonating the Spring Festival sales in one fell swoop.
The new function was disseminated through public accounts and the Spring Festival Gala, attracting 800 million users on New Year's Eve, and million red envelopes were divided up instantly.
With the help of a powerful social system, the number of users of WeChat Pay increased instantly, and the card binding rate also began to rise linearly.
At this time, Jiang Qin and the little rich woman dressed like a cotton doll went to her aunt's house to pay New Year's greetings.
"Congratulations on getting rich. Here's the red envelope." Feng Nanshu opened her little hand to Qin Jingqiu.
"?"
Qin Jingqiu looked at Jiang Qin: "Nanshu didn't ask for red envelopes during the Chinese New Year before, and he didn't even accept them."
Jiang Qin bared his teeth and smiled: "That was before, now we have to save money to buy milk powder for Jiang Ainan, aunt!"
"Nan Shu, have you learned bad things from Jiang Qin?"
Feng Nanshu clung to Jiang Qin and said softly: "When I marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and when I marry a dog, follow the dog..."
Jiang Qin's mouth twitched: "Who did you learn this from?"
"I learned it from Gao Wenhui."
At the same time, in the group-buying WeChat group, Sunai’s boss Aite and his wife gave out red envelopes every day, while others lurked in the group waiting for opportunities. In just a few days, the milk powder money Jiang Qin had just saved was divided up. .
"The Milk Stealer"
It is such a simple program that turns the custom of red envelopes into the most effective business method.
This red envelope effect lasted until March, and screenshots of red envelope balances could still be seen everywhere in WeChat Moments.
And if you grab a red envelope, you have to use it. Even if you don’t use WeChat payment, you still have to bind your card to withdraw cash.
Let users have money in their wallets first, and then force them to use it. This backward-looking business logic makes WeChat Pay the biggest winner during the entire Spring Festival.
From the end of January to March, when the cold gradually subsided and the ice and snow melted, the number of WeChat Pay users increased crazily. By the day of Jingzhe, the number of users had reached 32% of the entire market.
The online businesses of Alipay and QuickPass are relatively stable, but their offline businesses have been affected.
"Damn, sneak attack!"
Ma Yun was shocked and angry, and immediately launched the red envelope business, but it didn't make any splash.
Red envelopes contain all kinds of human feelings and sophistication in Chinese society. To put it bluntly, they are a kind of monetization of interpersonal relationships. As a social network, they are the fertile ground for interpersonal relationships. Therefore, only WeChat can use red envelopes. This is an unsolvable problem. bureau.
At this time, the taxi market, which had temporarily stopped due to the Spring Festival, began to reignite the war.
Travis had said years ago that he wanted to clean up the battlefield and end the war, but Beep and Kuai De had been procrastinating and had not made a choice between surrender and death.
So at the beginning of spring, Uber directly increased its investment in the market, burning the market with furious momentum, intending to directly destroy Bibi and Kuaidi.
As for Didi, Travis doesn’t like it.
Didi has only had a small market share since it was launched in December, and it has not even reached the peak level of Bumblebee. How could he like it?
In his opinion, Didi was no match at all, just an ineffective stumbling block, the kind that could be overcome with a little bigger step.
At this time, Cheng Wei heard a rumor about Didi.
Some people say that Didi is not only developing its business in Shanghai and Kyoto. They are also developing Linchuan and the five surrounding cities, but their posture is extremely low-key.
"I understand. Jiang Qin wants to encircle the city from the countryside. Shanghai and Kyoto are just pretending to attack. They want to master the second-tier cities, extend the business chain, and encircle them as a whole."
"This is a classic method they used during the group buying period. I just said that the preparation for group buying does not stop there."
Chen Chuanxing is communicating with Cheng Wei more and more frequently, mainly because they currently have the same opponent, Uber.
When Chen Chuanxing learned that Didi was working in the second-tier market, his doubts gradually dissipated, and he finally understood the route Didi wanted to take.
The huge momentum in Shanghai and Kyoto is just to cover up their actions in second-tier cities. What they want to do is surround the cities in the countryside.
"It's a pity that this won't work."
Cheng Wei nodded: "Yes, Didi has only developed five cities from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. It will take at least one year to form an encirclement, but the market can no longer wait another year."
Judging from Uber’s current subsidy strength, even if Bibi and Kuaidi join forces, they won’t be able to survive for half a year.
At that time, Uber, which has no opponent, will sink quickly. At that time, Didi's encirclement has not yet formed and will be easily dispersed.
This is different from the group buying business.
Group buying requires negotiating with merchants one by one, and the timeline can be very long, but for taxi business, you only need to sign up taxi companies and fleets with operating qualifications, and basically control the market.
Uber burned a billion dollars a year ago. Judging from this desperate attitude, this is not difficult for him at all.
"Mr. Jiang may be restricted by the idea of doing group buying."
"To be disrespectful, Mr. Jiang is actually not as good as people say. He only has this kind of method. He only exerts unexpected effects in group buying and takeout, so he appears to be very powerful."
Cheng Wei nodded, sighed with regret, and then said goodbye to Chen Chuanxing.
At the beginning of the new year, he had a lot of dinner parties to organize, and the first people he wanted to invite were the leaders of the Shanghai Transportation Commission.
The road management in each city is under the jurisdiction of the transportation department. Although Bibi's business is experiencing a serious decline, it still has to give its leaders a meal.
Drinking is unavoidable at parties, and Bibi is a start-up. Unlike Jiang Qin, a long-established business senior, Cheng Wei does not have his own driver, so he relies on Kuaidi for travel. This has been his habit since they met Kuaidi.
But what Cheng Wei didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at his destination, he saw Jiang Qin at the door.
"Mr. Jiang?"
Cheng Wei was a little surprised: "I've heard about your name for a long time, and today I finally met you in person!"
Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment: "Who are you?"
"Oh, let me introduce myself. I am the CEO of Bibi. My name is Cheng Wei."
"Beep? I know, hello, Mr. Cheng!"
Jiang Qin suddenly changed his one hand to both hands and held his hand tightly: "You have worked hard these past six months, leave the rest to me."
Cheng Wei: "?"
"It's okay if you don't understand. You will understand. Oh, by the way, remember to come and drink my little princess's full moon wine in the second half of the year."
Cheng Wei looked slightly confused as he watched Jiang Qin wave goodbye to him and get into a Maybach.
What does it mean to work hard on me? I leave the rest to you?
He was puzzled, so he didn't think much about it, and hurriedly visited several leaders of the Shanghai Transportation Commission and invited them to a banquet tonight.
Originally they had made an appointment, but unexpectedly, several leaders all refused, on the grounds that they would have emergency meetings in the next few days.
