"Oh, what are they talking about?"
"Some people are discussing how we managed to establish Xu's Catering so quietly. Some people think that now that we have Xu's Catering as a sales channel, we don't need to keep focusing on Shengli Supermarket anymore, because Xu's Catering's channel is more suitable for us than the supermarket's."
"It seems this lie was quite successful; even our own people believed it." President Peng nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look out the window at the treetops swaying in the wind, and murmured in a voice only he could hear, "In that case, those old fogies at Qiansheng Group should start making their move!"
"Ah, are you talking? I didn't hear you." Hearing the soft, fragmented sounds, President Wei was puzzled and wanted to ask President Peng what he had just said, but before he could finish speaking, the phone rang suddenly.
Ring ring—ring ring—
"Hello, I am Peng Si, the person in charge of Harvest Farm. What can I do for you, Mr. Luo?"
"Would you like to have a chat with us? I wonder what you'd like to talk about, Mr. Luo? Harvest Farm is quite busy lately, and we might not be able to find the time!"
"Ah, exchanging Victory Supermarket for our group catering channels... that's not really a good idea. The value of the two isn't quite commensurate. Yes, I know Victory Supermarket's profits have always been good, but exchanging them for group catering channels is still a bit much. After all..."
"...They'll definitely give me satisfactory terms. No, you guys must have misunderstood something. Ah, okay, then we'll talk about the Haishi Hotel when we meet tonight, right? Okay, okay, I'll definitely be there on time."
After hanging up the phone, under Mr. Wei's expectant gaze, Mr. Peng nodded slightly and smiled, "The fish have taken the bait; it's time to haul in the net and enjoy the joy of a bountiful harvest."

The advantage of a large company is that it has more people and more talent. Before Gu Yutao officially joined Taobao, the proposal, implementation, funding allocation, establishment of special task forces, and other matters had all been completed.
After Gu Yutao joined the team, the framework of the live shopping section was laid out in just one week. The next step was to add various functions to it as flesh and blood. The speed was astonishing!
Based on the current progress, internal testing and adjustments should begin by the end of November, and if all goes smoothly, a market launch by mid-December is not impossible.
"Yu Tao, how's the progress of your feature development going?"
"Eighty percent done, almost done!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. With this feature completed, the current tasks can be temporarily put on hold. Everyone can have a good rest over the weekend, and let's keep up the good work next week!"
"Alas!"

"Tang Wen, how are the data results for our live stream lately?"
"Yes, both the number of viewers and the number of buyers have started to decline slowly. Since the section was merged, our live stream has only received a recommendation in the very corner of the homepage for two whole weeks. Only a little over two hundred people came to our live stream through this recommendation, and less than thirty people placed an order."
"It's gone down."
"Yes, we used to get recommendations thanks to various support policies from the website. Now that those policies are gone, it's very difficult for our live stream to beat those entertainment streamers if we rely solely on live stream data."
"It's a real shame. It seems this channel won't be useful for long. We can't put all our eggs in one basket. While the hype is still going strong, let's see how other live streaming platforms treat us. If they're suitable, we'll switch immediately!"
"After Manager Gu left the live streaming platform, I started paying attention to other platforms. Most of them are entertainment-oriented, and the policies and benefits are similar. If I were to relocate abruptly, I would lose some fans from my existing live streaming platforms, which would be a net loss."
"Let's keep observing. If we really can't find a suitable one, then we'll just have to leave it at that."
Tang Wen nodded and continued scrolling through the live stream's backend data. As she looked, she suddenly sighed and muttered to herself, "I wonder where Manager Gu went. If only he were still on the live stream platform!"
