Chapter 256 Chen Dejun: I also want to kneel down to him
It was half past ten in the evening, in Room 0418 of the Teachers’ Apartment.
Chen Yansen put down a can of beer, sat down on the sofa, concentrated his mental power, and summoned a translucent system panel in front of him.
With the Luzhou No. 4 Orange Factory going into production and AutoNavi Map completing its full acquisition, the total number of employees who can provide him with humanitarian support every month has now exceeded 97,000.
Among them, Yunsu Express has 61,192 employees and a labor cost of 501.77 million, accounting for the highest proportion; Orange Mobile Phone Factory has 21,437 employees and a cost of 184.35 million, closely following;
After Kuaipao entered the Hangzhou and Jinling markets, the number of employees increased to 7,668 and the cost was 66.71 million yuan.
In addition, six subsidiaries including AutoNavi Map and Orange Technology have a total of 6,810 employees, with labor costs of 142.29 million.
The number of employees under Senlian Capital is just one step away from the 100,000 mark. The flame of humanity is 100,146 strands, which can be synthesized into 1001 strands of the flame of God.
Yunsu Express suffered the most losses, but also contributed the most to the cause! In his work report in April, Liao Wei mentioned that the collection business volume of 3T Express and YTO Express combined was only 40% of Yunsu Express’s.
You should know that the average daily collection volume of the Tongda Group in 2011 was more than 2 million pieces per day, and STO Express even reached 4 million pieces on Taobao Double Eleven Day. The Tonglu Gang occupies half of the express delivery industry.
However, when Yunsu Express's daily collection volume exceeded 8 million, the business scale of SF Express, STO Express and YTO Express was shrinking. In just half a year, they lost 60% of their market share.
Franchise outlets across the country have been closed one after another, and the number has been reduced by half compared to the peak.
"Chen Dejun's ability to withstand pressure is quite strong. He didn't beg for mercy, and he didn't sell the company. It seems that he wants to fight Yunsu to the end."
Chen Yansen smiled faintly and muttered softly.
…
…
"I really want to kneel down to him, but Shentong's business volume has shrunk by 60%, and I can't sell it at a high price. I would rather fight Liao Wei to the death!"
In a private club in Shanghai, Chen Dejun picked up the wine glass, took a big gulp, and cursed fiercely.
Ever since Zheng Shengyu of the Postal Association forced Shentong and Yuantong to raise the price of small e-commerce items weighing less than one kilogram from one yuan to one yuan and fifty cents, they have no longer been able to hold on to their market share.
With the support of Pinbei Mall, Yunsu has no shortage of customers and can even seize the express delivery business of Taobao merchants.
As one grows, the other shrinks, the scale effect of Yunsu Express becomes more and more obvious.
With the technical support of Orange Technology, Kuaipao and AutoNavi Maps, Yunsu Express uses big data and intelligent algorithms to plan the best routes for transport vehicles based on factors such as order distribution and traffic conditions, effectively reducing empty mileage and transportation time, thereby reducing transportation costs and improving delivery efficiency.
At the same time, seven large-scale intelligent warehousing centers have been built in North China, East China and South China, and automated equipment has been introduced to ensure high and accurate sorting efficiency.
In the final delivery link, Yunsu’s high-quality service combining express lockers and door-to-door delivery has put the three major express delivery companies under great pressure.
“We have to find a solution, otherwise no one will survive until next year.” Yu Weijiao of Yuantong Express frowned, the white hair on his head was getting thicker and thicker, and it was obvious that he had not had a good time recently.
"If it doesn't work, just sell the company to Yunsu." Lai Haisong of Zhongtong Express shrugged and said helplessly.
In his opinion, if he waited another year or two, no one would be willing to buy it, so it would be better to make plans early.
"Is Boss Lai scared?" Nie Tengyu from Yunda Express glanced at him and said with disdain.
"I'm scared? Half a year ago, Boss Chen said that Yunsu couldn't bear the losses and could only last a few months at most. What happened? I gritted my teeth and fought Liao Wei, but he got more and more excited. This month, he built a smart warehouse in Yongcheng. What else can I do if I'm not scared?"
Lai Haisong stood up suddenly and questioned Nie Tengyu.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense here." Chen Dejun said coldly to Lai Haisong with a sullen face.
"Hmph!" Lai Haisong suppressed his anger, sat down with a plop, picked up the wine glass and drank silently.
The four of them stared at each other, at a loss for a moment. To put it bluntly, in terms of financial reserves, even if the three major express delivery companies and one express delivery company were put together, they were no match for Yunsu.
There is only one way out at the moment, which is to find a way to raise funds.
…
…
"Financing? China Merchants, Huake and Huaxin?"
On the first working day of May, as soon as Chen Yansen arrived at the office, Gao Weilin knocked on the door and walked in.
Gao Weilin smiled and nodded: "Yes, it was Chairman Zheng of the Postal Association who made the connection."
Zheng Shengyu? Chen Yansen didn't believe that the other party was so kind.
This is probably because Yunsu has been expanding wildly across the country recently and spending money like water, with its monthly losses soaring from 100 or 200 million to 200 or 300 million.
Zheng Shengyu was afraid that Yunsu's capital chain would be broken, affecting the social security and employment of more than 60,000 people, right? However, if he could get access to the relationship between China Merchants and Huaxin, it would be much easier to buy second-hand aircraft from Air China in the future and convert them into freighters, or apply for air transport operating qualifications and route operating licenses.
"It's time for Yunsu to raise funds. You will be in charge of the connection."
Chen Yansen thought about it and gave instructions to Gao Weilin.
"Boss, what's your bottom line?" Gao Weilin asked.
"At most 15%. Of course, the higher the valuation, the better. If it's less than 10 billion US dollars, there's no need to discuss it." Chen Yansen replied.
"Okay, I understand." Gao Weilin nodded, put down a financial statement, turned and walked out.
After the office door was closed again, Chen Yansen stretched out his hand and the orange phone on the table slowly flew into his palm.
When his spiritual value broke through 44.95, not only did the diameter of his spiritual sense expand to more than fourteen meters, but even the weight he could "lift" also increased by more than three times.
"On May 1, Penguin spent 200 million to acquire 13.5% of Yixun.com's equity, with a shareholding ratio of up to 80%. The remaining shares will be held by Yixun.com's management..."
Chen Yansen shook his head. It seemed that Pony Ma had indeed given up his idea of doing e-commerce and changed the group's strategy for the e-commerce sector to investment.
Unfortunately, Yixun.com could not afford Ma Wenteng’s e-commerce dream. Penguin invested a total of 700 million yuan, but it was destined to go down the drain.
Chen Yansen remembers it very clearly. Two years later, Ma Wenteng exchanged Yixun.com, QQ Online Shopping and PaiPai.com, plus 220 million US dollars, for 15% of the equity from Liangzai Dong on the eve of Dong's IPO.
In order to gain the first-level traffic entrance for WeChat and QQ Mobile, Liu Qiangdong had no choice but to take over with tears.
In fact, he did not lose anything. After obtaining the traffic from Penguin, the valuation of Dongfang exceeded 20 billion US dollars on the day of its listing.
Otherwise, it would have been difficult to get an issue price of US$19 per share based on Dong's market share and business level at the time.
Now Penguin has given the traffic entrance to Pinbei, and it is hard to say whether it will continue to invest in Dongfang at that time.
At this time, Zhou Hongyi called.
