Chapter 125 The time to come has finally come
I don't know why I was blocked in the previous chapter, if that is the reason...
—————
There are actually a few news on this day, such as WeChat hastily blocked DingTalk and then unblocked it. Chu Yuanxi really didn't expect that Da Long Dad really blocked DingTalk with a joke at that time. At this time, isn't DingTalk a spread of the health code? Can this work? The result is really not...
At the same time, Sun Dasheng invested 1 billion to Ziru. The news reached Chu Yuanxi's ears and just smiled. The 1 billion was very good, but he already knew what was probably waiting for a well-off situation if he agreed to the conditions at that time.
In fact, because I have always been "minded by the island country" these days, many otaku in Yu Suzuki's team have increased communication and communication with the Ba people, which has caused Chu Yuanxi to accidentally hear that a new situation has occurred on the island country - 724 has begun to launch its own membership system and app!
As soon as the news was confirmed, Chu Yuanxi picked up the mobile phones of the otakus programmers to study the 724 app and found that the functions were quite rich. Some of Xiaokang had not been lost, and some of Xiaokang had not been added, and there was also a shared cycling function in it.
This option made Chu Yuanxi sigh, because 724 joined forces with Sun Dasheng to build a shared bicycle in 2017, and then it quickly became silent. Unexpectedly, in order to learn from himself, I picked up this set again, which was really difficult for them...
Software with such rich functions cannot be developed in a month, and building a complete user system is not a matter of one day or one night. It takes a lot of cash to invest in a bicycle, and it is impossible not to conduct an argument. The argumentation work cannot be completed within three months. Chu Yuanxi himself is a bicycle investor himself, and with the speed of research and development in the island country's IT industry, it is conservatively estimated that it will take half a year.
Therefore, why did Sun Dasheng want to invest in a well-off society?
So, the family of Ikoma saw Chu Yuanxi smiling happily while playing with his cell phone, and thought to himself, President, why are you laughing at?
Chu Yuanxi muttered to himself: "Don't just learn from you? You have to learn from us too. Oh, Izuko-sang, your residents, what do you think of this new thing in 724?"
"Are you reviews? Not very good, it's considered good reviews? But it's a little weird." Ikko family thought, the biggest highlight of this app for island residents is coupon discounts, but major convenience stores themselves have discounts on the final goods. The discount given by 724 is not particularly strong, but it is more flexible, so you don't have to wait for the final goods time. This is the good side, but...
"That, president, I actually think it's strange to me. I used to go shopping at 724, but now I see these functions, and I feel that they are not the same 724. Many of the functions are useless and very unfamiliar."
Chu Yuanxi said of course you think it’s strange, “Izukuan, don’t you go to Xiaokang to shop very much?” If he often uses Xiaokang’s app, he will definitely feel the signs of 724’s copycat.
"Uh..." Ikuma's family was panicked, thinking how did this be seen? Was the president unhappy? "The Celestial Empire is a food kingdom, which is not much the same as ours. Our food is subtraction, and you are adding. I have been experiencing your food during this period."
"That's it? By the way, Ikoma Sang, has 724 started to put bicycles again? Do you understand?"
"I heard that there are very small amounts, and they may need to be put into place one after another, right?"
Chu Yuanxi shook his head, "This is not possible. It's better to make a quick shot, so you can learn more like this."
"Hey, president." Ikoma's family relative Ai Ai asked: "Is this good or not?"
"Okay, of course it's OK. Isn't this a very good thing for someone to learn from me?"
"Then why are you so happy? Are you eager to challenge?" The second-dimensional attribute of Ikuma's relatives broke out. I don't know which anime came, and her face was filled with passion as she spoke.
"Haha--it's because they have no chance! Do you know Jigong? The wine and meat pass through the intestines, and the Buddha's heart sits. If the world learns from me, it's like entering the devil's way!"
Chu Yuanxi was so angry that he laughed, and he wanted to see 724 and quickly jump into a large number of bicycles. This would be more expensive and more thorough!
Even in his anger, Chu Yuanxi felt a little joy, watching the competitors jumped into the pit and were about to change to a big pit.
If you only do it in island countries, it is very inefficient, because the mobile phone penetration rate of the island country's population is only around 60%, which is far lower than that of the Celestial Empire. In this ecological environment, building a user system through mobile apps is half the result with twice the result. It not only has a lot of hidden dangers, but even produces negative effects, which ultimately runs contrary to beautiful expectations, which is very unhappy. Perhaps this is also the direct reason why the convenience store powerhouses in island countries such as 724 have not actively promoted the user system based on the mobile Internet.
The reason for such a low mobile phone penetration may be that the island countries have gone very far in the Internet era, and the broadband experience is very good. People are used to PCs and hosts, so the mobile Internet is not easy to penetrate. This is exactly two extremes from Southeast Asia. Southeast Asia directly skipped the Internet era, with broadband being super garbage and access rate being hugely low. The Internet era is a chaotic and wild atmosphere. Therefore, once the mobile Internet era is entering the mobile Internet era, the mobile phone penetration rate is extremely high, even higher than that of the state.
Therefore, 724 must and can only use this system to promote it to achieve maximum value. But in fact, this is a false proposition.
Chu Yuanxi spent a short time in skull deduction and found that even if the mobile phone density was not large enough, 724 could taste the sweetness of the user system in the island country, which would further induce them to bring the system to the state. After all, there are thousands of stores here, and the strongest brand effect in convenience stores, and the vast world has great achievements. Then? Then give them a socialist iron fist! 724 will find that the competitive environment on the island is not the same level as in the state country!
The competition environment is second, and more importantly, it is so naive that 724 wants to learn a little bit of fur by copycat Xiaokang! The complex and huge system of Xiaokang is linked together, and some internal logic is not even written into the document. What is written into the operation staff needs to master it. Those that do not require operation but are mined as underlying data, thus forming a support level, do not need to be written into a document at all, and are all in Chu Yuanxi's mind.
For example, the relationship between cycling data and AI team leader, why did Xiaokang buy a bicycle? 724 can see superficial factors, activity advertisements, new tools, etc., but cannot see Xiaokang collecting user movement trajectories through bicycles, and even if he sees it, he doesn’t understand what to do.
Others collect user location information and user portraits. What is the use of Xiaokang’s trajectory? It has many practical uses, and it is of great use to intelligent coupons from AI store managers. You can numerical mining based on location, portrait + trajectory. With the efficiency of machine algorithm recommendations with thousands of people, the improvement of user experience is exponential, more direct and faster, and is definitely far better than the situation where you can only master user positioning and user portraits.
This improvement is valuable to all advertising types of service providers. Even in Douyin Kuaishou's advertising marketing system, if user trajectory data is added, the recommendations they rely on for survival can greatly improve the user experience and at the same time improve the effectiveness of the advertisement itself.
The latter is actually more important, because ultimately, the advertising quotation is the money. Wherever the advertising is invested, the funding will flow. The reason why the Toutiao engine can overtake and kick Penguin Guangdiantong from the throne is that it has a national application like Douyin that can use location to cooperate with user portraits to advertise, and also choose creative materials that are more suitable for user tastes. It is an upgrade in the past when only analyzing user portraits and then publishing advertisements.
This is probably why Penguin later fought against short videos and wanted to acquire Kuaishou several times. It cannot achieve a comprehensive connection with Kuaishou and cannot do it. The effectiveness of Guangdiantong will be pulled further and further by a huge number of engines. Penguin is not unable to obtain user location information, but there is no such tool as short videos.
What Xiaokang wants to achieve is to upgrade the industrial chain again. This key data is exchanged for massive bicycles. Each data is money, which will inevitably enrich a lot of value. It must be collected and used reasonably. Ai store manager does not have enough function to fully reflect it.
724 Want to learn? Sun Thief! Do you learn with your face?
What’s even more funny is that Xiaokang’s function is in batches, and the rhythm is strictly controlled. As long as 724 jumps into the pit, they have to passively chase them later, so some of them will chase them...
"Well, Ikuma Sang, please let me know." Chu Yuanxi stopped laughing and said to Ikuma's family with a smile: "There must be Sun Sang in this change in 724. Please ask me how much money he invested? Or it's not an investment but another model. Just disclose information. There must be related news on your side."
Ikoma's family nodded quickly, "Pack to me!"
Speaking of this, Chu Yuanxi was about to leave, but in fact he was only angry for a while, and now he was in a very peaceful mood. It is understandable to think about it from the perspective of 724. After all, anyone who is the leader of the industry will feel like he is facing someone's face.
What's even more excessive is that it's still arguing. Of course, we need to study why our users have gone to the other party and found that it was the credit of this user system.
Then it was very simple. After observing it, I felt that I understood it and started working. However, I had my own design. I used to copy the concept and developed it myself. I made a good plan! Therefore, many functions that did not seem to serve users, which made users feel strange. As for copycats, I have to have them. How can I call copycats if I don’t learn all the time?
The problem is that most of the stores that Xiaokang is close to 724 are in commercial buildings, because there are very few stores open next to the community, and only a few places where the exit of the community is the main street road will appear. Chu Yuanxi is curious about the essence of 724 when he discovers that the essence of 724 is lies in whether the community will smell fragrant when he is in the community?
But the second-dimensional soul of Ikoma family was already burning, and he screamed immediately: "President, you can't just let it go! 724 is so blatant, we must give him a powerful fight back!"
"Well, 724 is just a native chicken and a dog. I already have an action plan." Chu Yuanxi then said, in fact, there is no plan. Xiaokang needs now only to be good at himself, and he is enough to be invincible.
Ikoma's family suddenly showed their eyes radiating: "Wow! President Weiming! What is the plan?"
Chu Yuanxi became extremely serious in his evil taste: "Can you keep it secret?"
"Of course!"
"Well, I can, too."
There are other interesting news during this period, such as Xiao Huang, who has not appeared in industry news for a long time, was exposed again, this time because of the transformation and rebate online shopping.
Yes, Xiao Huang has been working hard to repay the money. Although he has not obtained any use, the team queuing for refund of the deposit has not been shortened, but the routine has been updated several versions. After the deposit is turned into gold coins and the deposit is p2p, he finally brought tens of millions of loyal users into the arms of e-commerce. The person who owe money this year is the old man, and the one who owes tens of millions of users is the old man among the old man, Miyuan, Huasheng Diary, Fanxiang Life, Yuehui, Shengzuo, and other shopping guide rebate platforms are all trembling.
After seeing this important news, Chu Yuanxi almost squirted out an old blood and roared: "What are you doing?"
The main reason is that Xiao Huang has made a new level of trickery this time, which increases the anxiety of users. If users want to get the 99 yuan deposit back, they need to spend more than 1,000 yuan on their platform. I don’t know how many wool I have spent on Pinduoduo…
Of course, this kind of thing has almost no impact on Chu Yuanxi now. What has an impact is the new regulations issued by my big A-shares on the night of the 6th.
At that time, he was sending Xiaokang's B round investment. On the 5th, he had already collected the subscription intentions and shares submitted by various companies. As expected, the total share was indeed "consistent with expectations".
Not counting as a bachelor, I only got about 1 billion RMB in total, which is quite the same as the number I guessed before. In addition to the previous few companies, there are also some who expressed their intentions, but the subscription share is very small. If the investment amount of about 10 million is OK, it is still OK to get to the B round of Xiaokang.
In fact, even if there are only 1 billion yuan, the current year is quite large, especially for the B round of financing alone, the financing of Guochao in February and March is basically tens of millions, and over 100 million is a minority, and over 500 million is rare, and one hand can count it. The only thing that can be compared with Xiaokang is Ziroom from SoftBank.
However, although Ziroom claims to raise 1 billion yuan, in fact, only 500 million yuan is financing, and the other half is buying stocks from the founder. Is this action itself interesting? Whether it causes the founder and SoftBank to lose one shareholding and rise, and then seek control of Ziroom for the time being, the ones that can be said to be financing must be entered into the company's accounts, which is actually not as good as a well-off society.
However, Chu Yuanxi was still quite unhappy, which was a big departure from the expectations he had just traveled through time. At that time, he thought that Xiaokang's round B would face the problem of poor data, which might cause some obstacles in financing. Now the data is quite beautiful, but things are unpredictable, and the obstacles are even greater!
But this investment matter must be published. How to write the news? It can only be that Xiaokang Life has completed a B round of financing of 4 billion yuan. This round of financing is led by Baren Group, CC Investment, Haiyi Fund, Contemporary Capital, Chuanyin Technology, Zhengde Fund and other institutions. Orchid Capital's single-person financing exclusive financial advisor will be used for product research and development investment, team expansion, factory production line construction, cloud data center deployment and mobile payment promotion, etc.
This press release is just a fool to fool the layman. As a financing of 4 billion yuan, an insider can tell at a glance that something is wrong.
"It's a pity that they still know nothing about Xiaokang..." Chu Yuanxi complained to Liu Lu, "What did you say just now? Some people think that Xiaokang's development in Southeast Asia is a negative evaluation?"
"Don't you all depend on you?" Liu Lu laughed. A startup company, who hasn't done anything yet, started cross-border operations, made large investments in foreign countries, and opened sub-bases. What's the situation? It's absolutely difficult for ordinary people to understand.
Moreover, Chu Yuanxi simply did not mention a well-off Southeast Asia during this round of investment, and actually did not mention it much in the previous round, but he made necessary explanations because he wanted to occupy a sum of funds.
The more opaque the information, the more tricks it makes, which makes people incomprehensible. However, the investment and business environment in Southeast Asia is really good, the policy environment is loose, and the GDP growth rate is extremely high. The key is that the means of production are low, the population is large, and the age structure is very young, so it has obvious advantages. Therefore, investors cannot directly deny the decisions of a well-off Southeast Asia strategy.
For example, the starting place Elizabeth chose, Vietnam, is ranked in Southeast Asia in a comprehensive ranking, but the policies are strong, such as "no income tax for 4 years and a halved tax after 4 years", which is very powerful, which is close to the original Horgos. This alone hit Chu Yuanxi's heart.
Why did Baren Entertainment call it Baren Entertainment? It was not because the name sounded so nice, but because it only had a ready-made shell company in his hand, and its business scope was just right. The company's registered place was Horgos, and it was moved later.
Under such powerful policy incentives, Southeast Asia as a whole, the economic scale of the mobile Internet has exceeded 100 billion yuan for a year. If you want to say that there are any hidden dangers, it is nothing more than the same problem when our Great Heavenly Kingdom just started to incentivize venture capital, that is, the problem of the PE/VC fund exit pipeline is not smooth, and it is basically the only way to accept mergers and acquisitions or go to Nasdaq.
However, Xiaokang is a physical store. Even if Elizabeth is released in the future, she will still appear in Xiaokang's shareholder list as a strategic investor, so this problem does not exist for Xiaokang.
Chapter completed!
