My Age of Investment
Chapter 888: Find a place
Chapter 888
"This idea is ok, I support it!"
Xia Jingxing looked at Liu Weixi with an appreciative look. Xi Ge’s success is by no means a fluke. From moving offline stores to online, from vertical e-commerce platforms to integrated e-commerce platforms, insisting on self-built logistics...
This article shows that Brother Xi is by no means a person who stands still and sets limits on himself.
Not satisfied with the status quo, being able to get out of the comfort zone is easy to say, but in fact few people can really do it.
"So, Mr. Xia, do you support me?"
Liu Weakxi smiled slyly, "Many old colleagues who worked with me are not very supportive of Jingxi’s self-built logistics. I think this model is too heavy and all funds are used in logistics, which may affect the e-commerce business. The speed of expansion is not worth the loss."
Xia Jingxing smiled, "Again, service quality! I would rather only have 10% quality expansion than disorderly 100% expansion.
Since we insist on putting service quality in the first place, we should continue to practice it, and don’t make changes day by day and lose our own characteristics. "
Liu Weakxi nodded, "Mr. Xia, you are too right. I think so too. If the foundation is not secured, the tallest building is a dangerous building, which cannot withstand the wind and rain.
Jingxi is rushing to build a large-scale e-commerce platform across the country. Brand is our foundation. If we don't make quick money, we can only make big money after we really lay the foundation. "
Xia Jingxing nodded slightly, he could hear that Xi Ge's remarks were not false and coping words, but sincere words.
Because when operating Jingxi Multimedia in Zhongguancun, Xi Ge explored a way for business, insisting on authentic products, the price will always be cheaper than the peers, and focusing on after-sales service...
These insights were later used by Brother West in the management of Jingxi Mall, and it was a great success!
“Self-built logistics is an asset-heavy operation model. What do you plan to do in the early stage?”
Liu Qianxi replied: “I plan to open a distribution network in Beijing first, while verifying and exploring the operation model, while waiting for the opportunity.”
"What time to wait?" Xia Jingxing asked.
Liu Weakxi smiled, "Naturally, we are waiting for Jingxi Shopping Mall to develop to a higher level and obtain more operating funds.
In the final analysis, we now only have 10 million U.S. dollars. The number sounds like a lot, but we have to take care of the e-commerce business and invest in the logistics business. Once it operates at a high speed, this money will not last long.
My idea is to let e-commerce business lead the development of animal streaming business. "
Xia Jingxing groaned, Liu Qianxi ran a company, and he had more control over spending, making money, and even cash flow than ordinary entrepreneurs.
This can be a glimpse of the other party’s steady and steady performance in the logistics business.
However, Liu Weakxi still underestimated the cash burn of the logistics business. He wanted Jingxi Mall to drive the development of Jingxi logistics. It was very difficult, and eventually he had to split it out for operation.
However, Xia Jingxing does not intend to put too much beak on this for the time being, after all, Jingxi Logistics has not officially started operations, and is still in the plan.
"The service quality of the logistics business depends on the coverage of the outlets, and even directly linked to the salary of the courier."
Xia Jingxing said lightly, "These high operating costs require more business orders to cover."
Liu Weakxi lowered his head in thought. After a while, he raised his head and replied: “That’s right, the construction of logistics outlets requires a lot of money, but also time. There is definitely no money in the early stage.
As for salary, Jingxi’s orders are currently mainly electronic products, and the unit price per customer is relatively high. It does need to put higher requirements on the courier. Correspondingly, the salary we give is a bit higher than that of other peers. "
Xia Jingxing smiled and said, “Yes! Fuxing Industry Group has established an e-commerce platform called Fuxing Mall. I plan to deliver orders from Fuxing Mall to Jingxi Logistics.
With more orders, Jingxi Logistics has been able to do more with half the effort in its operation, and it can reduce losses in the early stage. "
Liu Qianxi's eyes narrowed: "Fuxing Mall, is it the self-operated e-commerce brand under the Fuxing Industry Group?"
"Yes, this e-commerce platform only sells products under the Fuxing Industrial Group, including various home appliances such as ice washers, pots and pans, and mobile phones."
Xia Jingxing knew what Liu Weakxi was worried about, and explained with a smile: "In the future, there may be more product categories, but we will never break through the word "self-operated". Don't worry, we will not open third-party sellers, and we will not do it. Comprehensive e-commerce.
Fuxing Mall now and in the future, just like the previous Jingxi Mall, it will only be a vertical e-commerce, which is equivalent to a direct online sales channel of the Fuxing Industry Group. This is to avoid being stuck by dealers. "
Liu Weakxi understood it instantly, and then smiled sullenly, feeling that he had been thinking too much. If Xia Jingxing really wants to be an integrated e-commerce company, why bother to invest in this small company, Jingxi?
"Mr. Xia, I didn't mean that, I just asked."
Liu Qianxi said quickly, “If Fuxing Mall is willing to deliver the order to Jingxi, we welcome 10,000 and express our sincere thanks!”
Xia Jingxing waved his hand, “Don’t say thank you, this kind of cooperation is beneficial to both of us. Fuxing Mall has no worries and can focus on selling products. Jingxi gets more orders and can build a complete logistics network faster.”
Speaking of this, Xia Jingxing said with emotion, “There is no end to business in the world, and I am not as gluttonous as the outside world says. Fuxing Industry has always been a new high-end manufacturing industry group focused on hardware manufacturing.”
Liu Weakxi smiled, “Mr. Xia, someone jealous or because of competition, splashing you with dirty water is a normal thing, don’t mind!
Anyway, my old Liu, I think you are very loyal. We are lucky that Jingxi can find investors like you. "
"Really?" Xia Jingxing looked at Liu Weixi with a smile.
Liu Weixi was anxious immediately, and said in a more serious tone: "Of course it is true. I have always said something about Liu Weixi, and I will not deliberately flatter anyone."
"Haha, okay, thanks to Lao Liu for his relief."
Xia Jingxing smiled and looked at Liu Weakxi, who was a little real, and asked: "I heard that old Liu, you drink well?"
"Okay!"
Liu Weixi glanced up and down at Xia Jingxing, and there was still a half-sent "You can drink it, you're fine" without saying anything.
"It’s almost time for dinner, let’s go and have two drinks together."
Xia Jingxing's invitation, Liu Weixi naturally readily accepted.
The two randomly found a restaurant nearby, and sat in the private room to eat and drink.
Seeing a few large glasses of white wine, Liu Weakxi, whose face did not change at all, Xia Jingxing knew that he was careless. This is the owner who can drink with the courier brother.
Looking at Xia Jingxing with a ruddy face and a little bit drunk, Liu Weixi snickered in his heart. Their hometown is a famous wine city. Yanghe and Shuanggou are the two major liquor brands from here. two".
He thought that Xia Jingxing was from Sichuan and Shu, and drinking should be okay, but this was the result?
"Come on, President Xia, I will fill you up!"
Xia Jingxing's cup was just empty, Liu Weixi immediately picked up the Moutai on the table and began to pour the wine.
As soon as he poured half a glass, he found that the wine bottle was empty. Liu Weixi immediately greeted him loudly: "Waiter, bring two more bottles of wine."
Xia Jingxing suddenly panicked, "Take one bottle is enough!"
"How can it work, I and Mr. Xia hit it off right away. Today is the first time we drank alcohol. Why should we drink two or three catties?"
Xia Jingxing was a little big head, he wanted to see if Liu Qiangxi could drink as rumored, but he became self-confident.
He is relatively good at drinking, he can drink a catty of white wine, but this amount of alcohol is in front of Liu Weixi, he is a younger brother.
"Farewell? Let’s drink less today and fill it up next time. I will have a remote video conference with the U.S. when I go home later."
When Xia Jingxing said so, Liu Weixi let it go.
When he walked out of the hotel, Xia Jingxing walked vainly, and was supported by Liu Weixi before reluctantly walking out.
Liu Weixi put Xia Jingxing in the car, and then shook his hand to Xia Jingxing: "Mr. Xia, you go back slowly. We didn't have a good time this time, we will definitely make it up next time."
Xia Jingxing smiled bitterly, feeling dizzy in his head, and tumbling in his stomach. Just now Liu Weixi persuaded him to drink too much, and he drank too quickly.
He struggled to get up, pretending to be a okay person, and said to Liu Weixi outside the car window: "Well, good, next time you make up, and by the way, I will bring a friend to meet you."
Liu Weixi heard Xia Jingxing’s extraneous words, didn’t he just want to find a foreign aid? He didn't take it seriously, he had full confidence in his own strength.
Xia Jingxing made up his mind, and when he turned around, he brought his head, Zhou Hongyi, to fight with Liu Weixi. He was also a wine fairy. Although he broke two front teeth in the swimming pool because he was drunk, it was a lot of hard work. Ten people were drunk, and three or five people could not pour the wine fairy.
Xia Jingxing is very confident in the red cannon, and plans to bring a hard blow next time to get the place back.
