Chapter 454: 270,000 employees, short video track pattern! Kuai Pao Canteen? No! It’s the employee home!
The next day, at dawn, a bright white appeared on the horizon.
Chen Yansen looked out the window and saw a few birds standing on the branches. Last night's mist turned into morning dew, dripping from time to time and falling to the ground and shattering.
Although he was dozens of meters away from Villa No. 108, he could see it clearly and hear it very clearly.
He put down the book at hand, stood up and walked out the door, sitting down on the sofa in the rooftop garden. While looking at the gray sky in the distance, he called up the system panel.
The value in the Humanity Flame column is 361019, which is enough to synthesize 36 strands of Immortal Flame.
The company has more than a dozen holding subsidiaries, including Yunsu Express, Kuapao, Orange Technology, Pinbei, AutoNavi, ByteDance, and Jinri, with a total number of employees exceeding 270,000.
With the rapid development of the mobile Internet era, this number will increase fivefold or tenfold in the future.
Every day when he wakes up, nearly 300,000 people make money for him.
In terms of the number of people covered by social security, Senlian Capital is already a leader among private enterprises, second only to Foxconn, 200,000 more than Ali, Yidong and the like, and 100,000 more than Huawei and BYD.
Behind these 270,000 families are the lives of millions of people, affecting the livelihoods of hundreds of factories and millions of people upstream and downstream of the industrial chain.
Once there is any movement in Senlian Capital, the entire industry will be shaken.
However, Chen Yansen did not think that Senlian Capital was that strong. He just distributed the profits and benefits that the employees deserved.
Deep Blue Battery is his first step to making money!
Although the Orange Z1 instruction set and Aurora Future OS system are important, they have not brought much revenue growth to the group at present.
"Synthesize, add some!"
As soon as he thought about it, a majestic purple-black mist emerged out of nowhere and suddenly penetrated into his forehead.
After just a few breaths, the mental strengthening ended and the value increased to 101.82. The spiritual consciousness was like a rapidly surging tide, instantly covering an area with a diameter of more than 35 meters.
Through the layers of brick walls, he could clearly see Song Yuncheng wrapped in a thin air-conditioning quilt, his eyes closed, sleeping soundly on the big bed in the master bedroom on the third floor.
"Are you hungry? Be good, mommy is here." Little Orange grabbed the hem of her clothes and lifted them up, murmuring in her sleep.
Chen Yansen smiled and shook his head, put his feet on the coffee table, leaned comfortably on the sofa, took out his mobile phone and started browsing Mimo.
In the first video, a hot McDonald's waitress bends down to hand a bag of fried chicken to a customer. Through her collar, the beautiful scenery of the mountains can be seen clearly.
Open the comment section and you’ll see it’s full of experiences shared by mountaineering enthusiasts.
The second one is a dark cuisine challenge video, in which the blogger brings all kinds of weird foods such as garlic ice cream, fried Oreos, pickled puffins, canned herrings, etc., and randomly selects passers-by on the street. Whoever can eat it will be given 100 US dollars on the spot.
Users had grown tired of watching this type of video more than a decade later, but in 2013 it became extremely popular, with over 2 million likes.
It has to be said that people from all over the world have a strong curiosity.
In the third video, a middle-aged white man imitated Jim Carrey's exaggerated performance in "The Mask" and received more than 100,000 likes.
The fourth video is still a big bomb, with an exaggerated size that takes up half of the screen.
At this time, Mimo’s registration volume in North America has already exceeded 100 million, and last week it successfully entered the European, South American and Australian markets.
As the penetration rate of 4G networks increases and smartphone shipments soar, short video software is becoming more and more popular.
Facebook, Instagram and Twitter have also added video sections, all wanting to get a piece of the pie in this field.
Douyin’s cumulative number of users has exceeded 60 million, but the proportion of daily active users is not high.
After all, compared with Europe and the United States, domestic WIFI coverage and unlimited data card usage rates are slightly inferior.
Chen Yansen was not in a hurry. He knew that since China Telecom had obtained the 4G license, the era of faster 3G network speeds and lower fees was about to come.
Although prices have not dropped in terms of tariff standards, the number and variety of Internet phone cards, directional traffic cards, and corporate customized cards are increasing rapidly, gradually becoming a trend of flooding.
In fact, the number of short video platforms in China is also increasing.
Douyin was the first to release it, followed by Weishi, iQiyi launched Papaqi, and Sina built the Miaopai application into Weibo.
GIF Kuaishou officially transformed into a short video software and renamed the product "Kuaishou". Relying on the grassroots culture of the Northeast region, it quickly gained a foothold in the northern market.
In terms of market share, Douyin is in a leading position with a huge gap; Weishi relies on QQ and WeChat to direct traffic to it and ranks second in the industry; Miaopai takes advantage of Weibo's traffic and ranks third; Kuaishou and Papaqi are still in their infancy, and the number of users has not yet exceeded 1 million.
Kuaishou in the north and Douyin in the south.
Chen Yansen watched some videos for a while, then threw his phone aside, muttering to himself.
The reason why he asked Lao Gao to recruit Chen Yixiao and guide the other team into the short video market was, on the one hand, to cultivate competitors for Douyin and enhance market vitality; on the other hand, to seize more market share by diverting user groups.
No matter how diverse the content of a short video software is, it still has its core positioning and mainstream orientation. It is impossible for everyone to like Douyin, and it is impossible for everyone to favor Kuaishou.
Chen Yansen simply took them all. With so many cards, he naturally had no worries about having no cards to play.
As for rivals like Penguin, Baidu, and Sina, although he was wary, he didn't take them too seriously.
The domestic Internet business circle is like a Colosseum. If you want to have the last laugh, you are destined to defeat countless opponents.
I don’t know how long it took, the sky began to brighten, the summer wind grew hotter and hotter, and the cicadas’ chirping became more and more shrill.
Song Yuncheng woke up slowly and found that Chen Yansen was not in bed. He picked up a pink pajamas hanging at the end of the bed and put it on. He walked out of the room sleepily and saw Chen Yansen on the terrace.
"Are you dreaming?"
Without waiting for Song Yuncheng to come closer, Chen Yansen asked.
"How do you know?" Song Yuncheng kicked off his slippers, climbed onto the sofa, and curled up in Mr. Chen's arms like a kitten.
"Guessed." Chen Yansen curled the corners of his mouth and smiled gently.
"That's good." Song Yuncheng breathed a sigh of relief. He thought he was talking in his sleep and was heard by Chen Yansen.
"I'll take you horseback riding in the morning." Chen Yansen said casually.
"I just rode it last night, let me rest for half a day." Song Yuncheng raised his head and begged pitifully.
"Pa!" Chen Yansen slapped him.
Song Yuncheng felt pain, bit his lips, and rubbed his butt subconsciously.
"What have you been thinking about all day? I'm talking about going to Xiangcheng Horse Farm." Chen Yansen rolled his eyes at her.
It was obviously you who didn't speak clearly and misled me!
Song Yuncheng was not convinced, but he could do nothing about it.
at the same time.
After confirming the interview topic, question design and itinerary with Wang Shixiang and Meng Yun, Time magazine assigned lead reporter Steele to lead a 15-member interview team, including translators, photographers, videographers, recorders, lighting technicians and coordinators, and flew to Yanjing overnight.
Two hours later, the scorching summer sun rose high into the sky.
The heat evaporated from the earth, and the ground temperature soon exceeded 35 degrees Celsius.
Shanghai, Yishan Road subway station.
After finishing the morning rush hour, Li Zhou took off his helmet. His short hair was covered with bean-sized beads of sweat, which slid down his forehead and cheeks.
"I'm Longlin Ma. Shanghai is hotter than Luzhou. Luzhou is like a scorching sun, while Shanghai is like a steam sauna. It's stuffy and dry."
Governor Li breathed a sigh of relief, retrieved a bottle of iced tea from the trunk, unscrewed the lid, and took a big gulp.
"Brother Zhou, you have to drink light salt water in the summer. Ice water is not healthy." After Xu Jiacheng finished speaking, he turned around, took out a bottle of light salt water that he had prepared in advance from his electric car and handed it to Li Zhou.
"It's indeed unhealthy, but it can relieve fever!" Li Zhou smiled and did not refuse Xu Jiacheng's kindness. He took the salt water and drank another half bottle.
"Nannan's admission letter has come. Let's go to Huangshan Da Pai Pai Stall tonight. I'll treat you."
Xu Jiacheng took the initiative to speak.
"Pengcheng University of Mining and Technology? A 211 university! Brother Cheng, work hard and earn some living expenses for our daughter." Li Zhou patted Xu Jiacheng on the back and was truly happy for him.
The tuition fees were paid by the company, so Xu Jiacheng felt much less stressed.
"Well, Nannan said that after graduating from university, she must join Senlian Capital and repay Boss Chen." Xu Jiacheng nodded, looking serious.
"Let's go to the Kuai Pao Canteen and grab a seat first, so we don't have to worry about finding a seat later."
Li Zhou took out his cell phone, checked the time, and hurriedly urged Xu Jiacheng.
The two of them rode their electric scooters and headed towards the nearby Kuaipao canteen.
When I pushed the door open, a chilly cold wind blew towards me. There were more than a dozen Kuaipao riders sitting in the dining area, all of them colleagues from the same station.
As soon as they saw Li Zhou and Xu Jiacheng, they waved and greeted them: "Brother Zhou! Brother Cheng!"
"There's free mung bean soup and lemon tea here!"
Before the lunch rush hour arrives, most Kuaipao deliverymen will choose to return to their stations, or come to the Kuaipao canteen to enjoy the air conditioning and drink a bowl of ice-cold mung bean soup to cool off.
The canteen staff will not chase them away because, to put it bluntly, they are colleagues of the Kuaipao deliverymen and Yunsu couriers.
Li Zhou responded without wasting time, picked up the plate, and said to the waiter, "Chicken with saliva, shredded potatoes and pork, a bowl of loofah soup, and a bowl of rice."
"7.8 yuan." the cashier replied loudly.
The loofah soup is free, rice is 1 yuan with unlimited refills, the mouth-watering chicken is 7 yuan, and the potato and pork shreds are 5 yuan. Employees enjoy a 40% discount, which is exactly 7.8 yuan.
A monthly meal allowance of 500 yuan will be paid out along with your salary: if you want to cook for yourself, you can save the money to buy groceries; if you want to eat in the cafeteria, you can also add the money to your meal card.
Xu Jiacheng, who was following behind him, was a bit stingy when it came to his meal. He only ordered one serving of shredded pork with edamame and one serving of mapo tofu, and paid 5.4 yuan by credit card.
"Brother Zhou, how many orders did you run this morning?"
"It's a tough day. With the air conditioner on, I don't even want to go online."
"Compared with the drivers of Qiandu Takeout, we are much happier. The stations and the Kuaipao canteens have air conditioning, while they can only go to shopping malls and subway stations."
"That bastard Li Yanhong has done all kinds of immoral things. Compared to our boss, there is a huge gap between them!"
A dozen couriers and delivery men gathered together, eating and discussing.
As they were talking, a Qiandu takeaway rider passed by the Kuaipao canteen, with a glimmer of envy in his eyes.
They are all delivery people, but the difference between them is too big!
He had been running orders all morning and was exhausted, so he wanted to go in and enjoy the air conditioning for a few minutes.
It only takes a few minutes!
With a "bang" sound!
His head went dizzy and he fell on the concrete road, feeling severe pain in his hands, feet and elbows.
Li Zhou glanced outside the door, without hesitation, dropped his chopsticks and ran out.
"Are you okay, brother?" As soon as Li Zhou went out, he felt his skin burning. The sun in Shanghai at the end of July was really unbearable.
Lu Bo slowly opened his eyes, his lips turned pale and his whole body ached. He raised his arm and scraped a palm-sized piece of skin, which was now bleeding.
"Brother, thank you." Lu Bo gritted his teeth and forced himself to support the electric scooter. The front fender was broken, which made him feel heartbroken.
Seeing that he was not seriously injured, Li Zhou turned around and walked back.
“Bang!”
Hearing the noise behind him, Li Zhou looked and saw that the Qiandu rider had fallen to the ground again.
"Brother Zhou, it seems like you have heatstroke." Xu Jiacheng said as he came over.
"Carry him back to the restaurant." Li Zhou decided immediately.
Xu Jiacheng didn't say anything, but stepped forward silently to lend a hand, and together with Li Zhou, they carried Lu Bo into the Kuaipao restaurant.
"Give him a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi water and a bowl of mung bean soup. It's so hot today, he's probably suffering from heat stroke."
Several other couriers and delivery men made this judgment based on their experience.
Although the two companies are competitors, it is not easy for grassroots workers and there is no need to stand idly by.
About five or six minutes later, Lu Bo recovered. Looking at the gauze and Band-Aids on his hands and feet, his eyes reddened and he kept thanking.
Kuapao Canteen is first and foremost a canteen for employees of Senlian Capital, and secondly it also serves as a community canteen. Common medicines such as hydrogen peroxide, iodine tincture, and cold medicines are all available here.
Lu Bo was lucky, but at the same time, a Qiandu deliveryman in Xuhui District was in a miserable situation. He fell directly on the hot road and no one dared to help him for a long time.
By the time the inspector arrived and sent him to the hospital, it was too late. The doctor diagnosed him with heat stroke and after several hours of rescue, he was unable to change the final outcome.
That night, a piece of news about a Qiandu deliveryman dying from heatstroke quietly became a hot topic.
Netizens were shocked and found it hard to believe that even today when air conditioning is so popular, there are still people who die from heat.
"I'm from Zhongyuan, 33 years old, with two daughters. Qiandu delivery drivers don't even have accident insurance, so the platform probably won't pay a dime."
“Aren’t Qiandu’s deliverymen employees of Qiandu?”
"What are you thinking? The deliverymen and couriers are all outsourced. They don't even have labor contracts. What does this have to do with Qiandu?"
"This is so fucking disgusting! Before he died, this guy was still delivering food for Qiandu and helping Li Yanhong make money! How dare he be such a coward?"
Netizens cursed in the comment section.
Some people immediately tagged the official Weibo account of Qiandu Waimai, as well as the personal accounts of Li Yanhong and Wang Zhongpu, demanding a response.
The other side.
Chen Yansen, who had just returned from horseback riding, scrolled through the screen and learned the whole story. He then posted a message: "Brothers, please take care of your health. All Yunsu Express outlets, Kuaipao forward warehouses, stations and branches across the country are our own homes."
"Thank you for your concern, boss!"
“Today’s mung bean soup is great!”
"I'm in Jinling, a full-time rider for Kuaipao. I envy my brothers in Shanghai!"
"Don't worry! Kuaipao Canteen will open in Jinling next month!"
Chopsticks running to the cafeteria?
Except for local netizens in Shanghai, many netizens from other places who don’t like to watch the news are confused.
When did Kuaipao open a canteen?
After learning that Kuaipao Canteen mainly serves couriers and delivery men, I was immediately disappointed.
"I don't understand! Why can Qiandu still recruit riders? There is no basic salary, no social security, no insurance. Who will cover the bottom line if something goes wrong?"
"What's a Thousand Degree Rider? That's outsourcing!"
"You little bastard upstairs, how dare you give me your address!"
"Don't order takeout from Qiandu anymore. The platform makes a lot of money, the boss lives in a villa and drives a luxury car, and the deliverymen die of exhaustion on the streets and no one cares."
"I used to be a deliveryman for Qiandu. Now I work in the Shenzhen factory, producing Orange phones for everyone. Take a look at the food and accommodation conditions in our factory."
A young employee of the Orange mobile phone factory, after get off work, lay in his dormitory enjoying the air-conditioning and posted photos of the canteen meals and accommodation environment.
For a moment, netizens were all shocked.
"Brother, just delete it. I don't care, but one of my friends might be a little sweaty. He's not feeling well. Of course, it's not me."
"Brother, I'm the friend upstairs, be obedient and delete the photos."
"Who can understand the sadness of Goryeo's son?"
"Is this the treatment in a factory? I don't believe it! It's definitely a special treatment for the management staff."
Before Time Magazine arrived in Xucheng, the basic salary, social security, overtime pay and quarterly bonus system of Kuaipao, Yunsu Express and Orange Mobile Phone Factory once again became a hot topic.
Some netizens even learned for the first time that Senlian Capital has purchased supplementary medical insurance, accident insurance and third-party liability insurance for its couriers, deliverymen and operators.
Qiandu’s riders have no other benefits except the delivery fee for each order.
As online discussions grew louder, the Yanjing Labor Association sent an inquiry letter to Qiandu, asking it to purchase accident insurance for its riders.
In the early hours of the morning, Qiandu slowly responded: it would provide a living allowance of 10,000 yuan to the deceased Qiandu deliveryman.
As a result, netizens didn't buy it at all and cursed Li Yanhong's entire family.
"He is not an employee of Qiandu. Ten thousand yuan is already a lot for him. Why does he scold me?"
Li Yanhong looked at the obscene words in the comment section and was so angry that his head started to ache.
Steele, a reporter from Time Magazine who had just landed in Yanjing, immediately realized that the young Chinese entrepreneur he was about to interview was very different.
