Reborn in 1984: Starting with the Development of Chinese Character Cards Chapter 353 Uber Launch Event When Ding Lei and his group arrived at the nearby Qingju Bike parking area, they found it already packed with other people.
"Wow, so many people!" Ding Lei exclaimed, then his gaze involuntarily turned to examine the green Qingju bicycles more closely.
Compared to ordinary bicycles, the biggest feature of Qingju bicycles is that there is a special device under the seat. An electronic combination lock and an Internet positioning system are likely installed inside, and users can unlock them by scanning the QR code on the seat.
At this moment, a young man wearing a baseball cap completed a series of procedures, then got on a Qingju bicycle and rode out from the crowd with an excited expression.
"Qingju bikes are of better quality than regular bikes, and they are especially comfortable to ride!"
The young man told his companion that the experience was very good.
Of course, what pleased him most was that the ride was free.
New users can enjoy three free rides, but a deposit of 100 yuan is still required, which can be withdrawn at any time.
After three free rides, the starting price is 1 yuan, with each ride lasting no more than 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, 1 yuan will be charged every 15 minutes.
The price is quite reasonable.
Within two or three minutes, all the dozens of Qingju bikes at the parking spot had been ridden away.
It's easy to see that people are still quite interested in shared bikes. Many people haven't ridden a bicycle in over ten years, but now they're reliving their youth!
Meanwhile, the green Qingju bicycles shuttling through the city streets have become a beautiful sight in the city, attracting the attention of passersby.
...
That day, Qingju Bikes became a hit!!!
It also suddenly topped the Weibo hot search list, sparking heated discussions across the country!
"Like a spring breeze overnight, pear blossoms bloom on thousands of trees! When I woke up, I saw people riding Qingju bikes everywhere on the city streets! Wujiang Group is amazing, they've come up with something new again! These shared bikes are really popular, all my friends are talking about them, and the emergence of shared bikes has indeed benefited us ordinary people!"
"The emergence of Qingju Bikes benefits the country and its people. First, it promotes the development of the bicycle industry chain; second, it promotes green travel and reduces environmental pollution; third, it addresses the urgent need for 'last mile' transportation for the public; and fourth, cycling can also provide exercise!"
"As more and more people in China become wealthy, more and more people are buying cars, which exacerbates traffic congestion in cities. If some people choose to ride shared bicycles, it can greatly alleviate the pressure of urban traffic jams."
"..."
The next morning at 9:00 AM, at Wujiang Building.
Jie Youwei excitedly reported to Zhao Ye: "Chairman Zhao, on the first day of its launch, the Qingju Bike app had nearly five million downloads, over 4.5 million registered users, and over 2.41 million users have ridden Qingju bikes! Qingju Bike has achieved a huge success!!!"
Zhao Ye smiled and nodded, saying, "Excellent, indeed a great success! Next, Qingju Bikes can expand into fourth- and fifth-tier cities and rural areas. The barriers to entry for bike sharing are relatively low, and I anticipate fierce competition. Qingju Bikes must secure prime locations before others launch!"
"Understood! Don't worry, Chairman Zhao, we will definitely continue our efforts!"
"Okay, you can go ahead and get busy."
"Okay, Chairman Zhao."
Jie Youwei said goodbye to Zhao Ye and turned to leave the office.
Then, following Zhao Ye's instructions, she began to expand Qingju Bikes rapidly.
With the strong support of Wujiang Group, Qingju Bike has developed rapidly, which is astonishing.
In less than half a month, Qingju Bikes began to enter fourth- and fifth-tier cities.
Many people used to envy that only big cities had Qingju bikes, but they never expected that their small hometown would also have Qingju bikes.
Wow, I was so excited!
Young men and women in the small county town are riding Qingju bicycles, leading the way in the latest trends...
Uh oh! Many companies that aspired to get a piece of the pie in the bike-sharing industry are now in an awkward position.
Qingju Bikes is almost dominating the national market, is it really necessary for us to get involved? Aren't we afraid of getting crushed?
This is terrible, it puts us in a very difficult situation!
If you give up halfway, all your initial investment will be wasted.
But if we persist, the future is uncertain.
...
