Jack Ma's eyes lit up.
"Wonderful! Zhang Yong, I knew I hadn't misjudged you. So all this was for Alibaba."
"Hey, Mr. Ma, I haven't reported this to you yet to prevent leaks. After all, if someone finds out about this before I've figured out the situation, all my efforts will be wasted."
“That’s right, you did a great job. These kinds of things must be kept secret. From now on, only heaven, earth, you and I know about this.”
Lin Chen: Me too! Me too!
Huang Zheng: Me too! Me too!
Half an hour later, Zhang Yong walked out of Jack Ma's office, relieved. He had finally gotten away with it, and the five million yuan was well spent.
But now a problem has arisen: Jack Ma needs to quickly compile all the product sourcing information for Pinduoduo.
This has stumped me. If I had come up with this plan myself, there would be no problem. It would only take a little time to secretly find all the sources of goods on Pinduoduo.
But the problem is, this solution was proposed by the owner of Pinduoduo!
Lin Chen isn't stupid. He's already told you this method, why would he wait for you to do it?
Sure enough, when he returned to his office, his secretary rushed in.
"Mr. Zhang, something terrible has happened! Pinduoduo has run away and taken all the products from our live streams back with them."
Zhang Yong shook his head with a wry smile. They were quick. From the time he went to see Jack Ma to the time he came back, less than an hour had passed, and Pinduoduo had already packed up and left.
However, the previous data should still be there.
"Go to the data department and get a list of all the products that Pinduoduo sells via live streaming."
"Okay, Mr. Zhang."
Half an hour later, the secretary returned with a thick stack of lists and forms!
"Mr. Zhang, this is a list of all the products sold through Pinduoduo's live streaming from the very beginning until now."
"so much?"
But then I thought about it again, and it's true, how could it not be a lot? If it weren't, could it fill up all the time on the Taobao live streaming platform?
The list brought by the secretary was quite detailed, clearly listing all the products, categories, brands, and prices.
Zhang Yong discovered that Pinduoduo's product range is really wide; it basically has everything you need in daily life, even rice.
With so many products, how am I supposed to find the original manufacturers?
Go find them one by one, until the end of time!
However, as a senior employee at Alibaba, I can't exactly go up to Jack Ma and say, "I can't do this job, do whatever you want."
Zhang Yong closed his eyes and thought for a moment, but all he could see when he closed his eyes were black stockings, white stockings, pearlescent stockings...
No, no, I need to think with my eyes open. A man should fight while he's awake!
He thought about it until he got off work, but still couldn't come up with a solution. Oh well, he decided to relax and maybe he'd find a way.
That evening, Zhang Yong invited the female anchor whose fingers were red from being pressed to dinner, and waited for her in the parking lot in his car.
The female anchor accidentally injured her finger while carrying water, and Zhang Yong massaged it for her using his family's traditional massage techniques. After that, the two formed a deep friendship.
"Brother Yong, do you think these stockings I'm wearing today look good?"
Zhang Yong wasn't in a good mood at first and just glanced at it casually, but once he saw the black lace fishnet stockings, he couldn't take his eyes off them.
"Ahem, it's too dark here. Let's find a place later so I can take a good look."
Half an hour later, Zhang Yong was lying on a hotel bed smoking, while the female anchor leaned against him. As for the stockings, they were torn and lying on the floor.
"Brother Yong, what's wrong with you today? You seem to have something on your mind."
Zhang Yong glanced at her and said, feigning sorrow.
"Hey, it's all because of you new live streamers. Taobao Live's biggest customer left, and now we have too many live streamers. Mr. Ma told me to lay off you new live streamers."
"Huh? How could this happen? Brother Yong, I just graduated and I don't want to be unemployed. If I lose my job, I won't even be able to pay my rent."
“I wouldn’t lay you off if I had to, you’re my little darling. But if I left you alone, it would inevitably cause gossip, so I argued my case and won you a chance.”
"What opportunity?"
“I’ll find the source of the products for Pinduoduo’s live streaming, and then train a group of Taobao merchants to sell these products. That way, Taobao’s live streaming business will come back, and you won’t lose your jobs.”
"Brother Yong, you're amazing! You actually came up with such a great idea! I love you!"
"Sigh, I have a solution, but as you know, Pinduoduo has so many products. Even if I sort them all out by category, I can't finish it all by myself. So I'm worried. If it drags on for too long, Mr. Ma will definitely ask me to lay off more people."
“Brother Yong, I can help you share some of the burden. Anyway, I don’t have any live streaming business at the company right now, so I’m pretty free every day. I can help you find suppliers.”
Zhang Yong thought to himself, "That's right. These female live streamers have nothing to do anyway, so why not send them out to find sources of goods?"
If we implement a bottom-ranking elimination system, we can cut off those who can't find suppliers or the last two who do. This will definitely increase the enthusiasm of these female live streamers, since recent college graduates are most receptive to this approach.
"Haha, Lili, you're so smart! Come on, let's take another look at your stockings."
"But Brother Yong, the stockings are already torn."
"Even if it's broken, it still has its uses. Come on, let me teach you."
...
The next day, Zhang Yong came to the Taobao Live platform and called a meeting with all the newly recruited female anchors.
"We regret to inform you that due to operational and developmental issues with the Taobao Live platform, the company has decided to lay off employees."
As expected, these words caused an uproar in the audience, and some of the female anchors even looked like they wanted to cry.
"But! I've secured an opportunity for everyone! This product list has already arranged which product sources each colleague needs to find. As long as you find the product sources within the specified time, you can continue to stay on the Taobao Live platform."
"Really? That's wonderful, thank you so much, Mr. Zhang!"
"Mr. Zhang is so handsome!"
"Mr. Zhang, I love you!"
"However! I have secured a limited number of spots, and I cannot keep everyone here. So, to be fair, I can only apologize to those who did not find a source of goods and to the last two colleagues who did. I hope everyone can understand."
"Mr. Zhang, we understand. This is also a way to demonstrate our capabilities, and we will work hard."
"Yes, we will try our best!"
Looking at these female college student anchors, Zhang Yong thought to himself, "They really are pure and innocent female college students."
