The veteran streamers readily agreed, saying they would teach these newcomers well.
But when they turned around, all they found were newcomers doing odd jobs.
This is actually quite understandable. After all, who would want to teach others for no reason, especially when it's their own livelihood? If they teach these newcomers, wouldn't they lose their job?
These seasoned anchors, who have already undergone social education, are all quite shrewd, unlike those fresh-faced college students who are innocent and naive.
Looking at the busy new and old anchors, Zhang Yong nodded in satisfaction.
At that moment, a newly arrived female anchor walked past Zhang Yong, sobbing.
"Hey, little girl, what's wrong?"
"Mr. Zhang, the anchor asked me to move some water, but I couldn't move it and I accidentally hurt my hand. Waaah, it hurts so much."
"Hey, how can you, a little girl, be asked to do something like carrying water? Let me see if you're hurt."
The little girl reached out her hand, and Zhang Yong grasped it, feeling deeply moved.
It's just a little red, but the skin isn't even broken. This little girl is so delicate! But wow, her hands are so soft and white.
"Cough cough, this injury is quite serious. Based on my years of experience, there may also be internal injuries."
"Oh? It's that serious. Mr. Zhang, can I take some time off to go to the hospital?"
"No need, no need. My family has been doctors for three generations. It was only in my generation that I entered the business world. I can just give you a massage."
"Mr. Zhang, you're amazing!"
"Come with me, I have some family-inherited medicinal wine that can relax muscles and improve blood circulation. A massage will definitely make you feel better."
"good."
Then, Zhang Yong took the girl to his office, locked the door, and began to massage her attentively. Hmm, it felt so good.
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed. Zhang Yong felt that the newly recruited female college student anchors should have learned enough and could be put on the job. So, he let them start opening their own live streaming rooms and taking orders.
Meanwhile, Panda TV's subsidy program is nearing its end, and no new announcements have been released, suggesting that they are unlikely to continue providing subsidies.
Jack Ma also visited the data department again, wanting to see how much impact Panda TV's subsidy campaign would have on Taobao Live, so that adjustments could be made to the next subsidy campaign accordingly. After all, Taobao couldn't afford to keep subsidizing platform fees at 100% all the time.
"Mr. Ma."
"Hmm, what about that young man from last time?"
"You mean Xiao Shen? He's over there."
"Xiao Shen, Mr. Ma is looking for you."
"Hello, Mr. Ma."
Xiao Shen was the young man who reported the problem to Jack Ma back then. Later, he was given a good lesson by Jack Ma in the elevator, which made him understand what it means to have a businessman's mouth.
"Okay, Xiao Shen, I came over to take a look at the recent data. Could you put together a report for me now?"
"Okay, Mr. Ma."
Soon, Xiao Shen compiled a set of data.
"Mr. Ma, this is the latest data as of midnight last night."
Jack Ma took a look and found that there was no longer just one merchant. He was very satisfied with this, which showed that Zhang Yong had carried out his instructions effectively.
The Taobao Live platform is operating very well overall, with all live streaming slots fully booked.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad."
Jack Ma was very satisfied.
However, Xiao Shen spoke up again.
"Mr. Ma, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
"Hmm? Hehe, Xiao Shen, you weren't like this before. Just say what you have to say."
"Then I'll say it, Mr. Ma. Although Taobao Live's performance is very good, and Taobao's transaction volume has increased significantly, more than 80% of those stores that saw an increase in transaction volume are not using Taobao Live's recorded live streams..."
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Jack Ma frowned. This was a serious question. If the situation was true, what exactly had Zhang Yong been doing all year?
"Xiao Shen, what makes you say that?"
Xiao Shen took another set of data from the table and handed it to Ma Yun.
"Mr. Ma, look, this is a comparison chart of the top ten Taobao stores in terms of sales revenue on the Taobao Live platform and the top ten Taobao stores in terms of actual transaction volume over the past month. None of them match."
Jack Ma took it and looked at it; the more he looked, the darker his face became.
Good grief, I worked so hard to set up a Taobao live stream, hoping to boost sales through live streaming. But now, while sales have indeed gone up, it has absolutely nothing to do with the Taobao live stream I created.
Some people might ask, "If you make money through Taobao Live and increase Taobao sales, isn't that a win-win situation?"
However, that is not the case.
In fact, Jack Ma doesn't need to think to know where these Taobao merchants can get their orders if they don't place them on Taobao Live.
It's definitely Panda TV's live-streaming e-commerce platform!
In this way, wouldn't Taobao's fate be in his hands?
After selling their products on Panda TV, these merchants are unlikely to return to Taobao Live. They might even be tricked into joining Pinduoduo.
To be honest, Jack Ma himself knows that Taobao Live's overall strength cannot compare to Panda TV's, after all, Panda TV is the industry leader in both the number and quality of its streamers.
Why should merchants continue to sell goods via Taobao Live?
Wait, what about Pinduoduo? Why isn't it there?
"Xiao Shen, check out this Pinduoduo flagship store."
Xiao Shen opened Taobao, searched for Pinduoduo's flagship store, clicked in, and was instantly dumbfounded.
This is a blank shop!
Forget about decorating, not a single product has been listed!
Now I understand everything. This Pinduoduo is just a damn copycat of Pinxixi! Lin Chen, that scoundrel, is just imitating himself!
Enraged, Jack Ma tore the report in his hand to shreds, threw it on the ground, and angrily pulled out his phone.
"Zhang Yong, come to my office right now!"
When Zhang Yong heard Ma Yun's tone, his heart sank. It was over; it seemed he had been discovered.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Yong quickly called Huang Zheng.
"Mr. Huang, it seems like things have been exposed. What should we do?"
"Well, Mr. Zhang, what else can we do but deny it to the death?"
"This won't do! Even if I deny it to the death, I'll still be suspected, and my entire career will be ruined! You have to help me!"
"Oh, Mr. Zhang, what can I do about this?!"
"If you don't help me, I'll turn myself in, and we'll all go and work on sewing machines together!"
"Ah... no, no, Mr. Zhang, please calm down. There's only one way left now."
"What method?"
"Go ask our boss, Lin Chen!"
"What? Lin Chen knew about this too? You all conspired to set me up?"
"Uh, cough cough, how can you call it a scam when it's a business matter?"
