Chapter 276 Sell the group purchase to me
"Junior, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you still remember me?"
Jiang Qin looked towards the door when he heard the voice, with a somewhat surprised expression: "Senior Sister Ye? Long time no see, are you here to see Professor Yan? He has nothing to do so he went to take Fuguier for a walk, why don't you wait here for a while?"
Ye Ziqing looked at him quietly: "I'm not here to see Professor Yan. I came here specifically to see you."
"Looking for me?"
"I read the news and learned that you were running a group buying website, so... I wanted to come and take a look."
Jiang Qin nodded thoughtfully: "Then Senior Sister Ye, just take a look."
"good."
Ye Ziqing glanced at Feng Nanshu, a little stunned. It took him a long time to look away, and he couldn't help but look at the display board hanging on the opposite wall.
To be honest, the only thing that looked familiar to Ye Ziqing about this office was this display board, because it was originally left behind when she left Room 208. Jiang Qin did not take it down, but continued to use it.
However, the financial statements of Jiuhui Group Buying Network have been lost in the long river of time. What is stuck on it now is the curve of new users’ growth and merchants’ entry in the second quarter of the group buying.
Seeing this, Ye Ziqing became even more distracted.
She still remembers the first time she met Jiang Qin. It was a rainy day. She came to 208 to reminisce about her entrepreneurial days, but she never expected that the place had a new owner.
At that time, Jiang Qin came out of 207 next door and told her that she had gone in the wrong direction in group buying and that she would not fail if she changed her thinking.
What did you say at that time?
What you learn from paper is always shallow...
The second time they met was at Juxianlou in the city center. She had just taken over part of the family business and needed to build closer relationships with her partners through socializing. At that time, Jiang Qin came out of the box next door and the two chatted for a few words.
What did you say at that time?
I praised his website for being well done and taught him not to rush into monetization, but to seize the time to continue promoting it and expand his user base first.
Jiang Qin’s answer was that he had no money.
I was quite disappointed with him at the time. I felt that he only cared about the small profits in front of him, but did not understand that real business layout required seizing the initiative. So I turned around and left, forgetting this junior who I met by chance.
Then, in the blink of an eye, half a year passed. Ye Ziqing came back from a drinking party and happened to see the news on TV. He was shocked to find that the group buying website that his junior had ruined had been rolled out throughout the city.
It was that light sentence back then that turned into a deafening thunder today. Ye Ziqing realized that he had never come out of the shadow of failure.
From that day on, she turned down all social engagements and began to investigate the emergence and promotion of group buying.
School beauty competition, sweet milk tea, forum traffic, mall bundling, half-price for all items, regional promotion, and sword marketing.
Ye Ziqing discovered that the seemingly unruly junior student had accomplished in the shortest time what he had tried his best to do, just by hammering down seven nails in Linchuan.
At that moment, she felt very complicated.
On the one hand, the success of group buying proved that her original idea was correct, but she did not use the right method. On the other hand, it also proved that her skills were inferior to others.
Then she discovered that hard work is really not worth mentioning compared to talent.
But what made Ye Ziqing feel even more unacceptable was that Jiang Qin had clearly spent a year planning a set of fast and efficient promotional methods, but he actually announced that he would stop the promotion and instead turn to running a forum.
This person easily achieved the goal that he had tried his best to achieve but could not, but he gave up and stopped playing, as calmly as a prodigal son, and withdrew as soon as he said he would.
Doesn't he know that if social networking cannot be monetized, the final outcome will be a complete collapse? "Junior, can I chat with you?" Ye Ziqing turned to look at him.
"Senior, just say what you want to say. There are no outsiders here."
Feng Nanshu was somewhat amused after hearing this, but on the surface she remained cold and indifferent, like a heartless rich woman.
Ye Ziqing took a deep breath and said, "Group buying is doing very well now. You should continue to promote it outside instead of confining it to Linchuan. Because if it is confined to one city, it will become worthless one day!"
"Senior, if instant payment is not possible, group buying can only be a regional monetization tool, and Zhihu is the best outlet for the Internet."
"Instant payment is achievable. The four major banks have all upgraded their online banking systems recently, which is actually a preparation in this direction."
Jiang Qin poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her: "Really? Then let's talk about it after the payment license is issued."
Ye Ziqing didn't answer, but stared at him closely: "If the financial license for instant payment takes effect, this track will be completely opened up, and all the capital that is waiting and watching will enter the market, and we will miss the most advanced opportunity!"
"us?"
"Sorry, that was a slip of the tongue. It was you."
Ye Ziqing pursed his lips and said, "Junior, you have to understand that it is not difficult to copy this project, and you are not the only one entering the market. The reason why they have not made any splashes is because they are also waiting for the wind to blow, but waiting for the wind to come is not as good as chasing the wind."
Jiang Qin picked up the cup and fed Feng Nanshu a sip of water: "I understand what you mean, but why do you think I will definitely win? Is it just because of my face? But, senior sister, appearance really does not represent justice. You can't be so superstitious."
“…”
"Okay, I admit it."
Jiang Qin opened his eyes wide, thinking that the senior sister’s ability was just mediocre, but her vision was indeed good.
"I admit this is the funniest joke I've heard this year."
Ye Ziqing said expressionlessly: "I'll tell you the truth. The reason why I trust you is because I have looked up the history of the founding and development of group buying. Your marketing methods are very powerful, and you understand the psychology of consumers and merchants very well, which is the most important condition for doing O2O."
Jiang Qin shrugged: "But I still think Zhihu is better, and my team has already begun to shift its focus back."
"Then you sell it to me and I'll do it."
"?"
"Junior, you can name your price. As long as it's not too outrageous, I can accept it. I will definitely make group buying the largest O2O platform in China."
Hearing this, Jiang Qin's scalp went numb. He thought that apart from the little devil Feng Nanshu, this must be the richest woman he had ever met. She really dared to buy good things when she saw them.
But he was very puzzled. After many contacts, Jiang Qin felt that Ye Ziqing's personality should be very cold, but as soon as she heard the word group buying, she seemed to be unable to control herself and would become extremely fanatical in the blink of an eye.
Is this the power of obsession? Because I failed once, I always feel unwilling to give up? This is somewhat similar to my own mentality.
"Senior, let's not talk about whether to sell it or not. I really want to know, if you were me, what would you do?"
"We will continue to expand to other places, targeting Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen."
Jiang Qin sighed: "That will cost a lot of money. By then, we won't have to wait for the wind to blow. We will die before the wind blows."
Ye Ziqing didn't care at all: "We can choose financing."
"No, not yet. This is not the best time to join the group."
"But you should at least let it go out and see how far it can go. If you don't go out, you won't have the chance to see the most beautiful scenery."
Jiang Qin shook his head: "I won't push it for now, but I definitely won't sell it either. Thank you for your kindness."
Ye Ziqing was a little disappointed, but still didn't give up: "I can join you and help you with the promotion. My uncle is the vice president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce. The two of us will join forces and at least expand to the first-tier cities first."
"Who is the vice president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce?"
“…”
Ye Ziqing took out a business card and handed it to him: "No one will sell their hard work. I understand this, but I hope you don't get stuck in group buying. As long as you have the intention to expand outward, I can lend you all my connections and channels."
Jiang Qin took the business card, took a look at it, and then pointed it towards the rich lady: "Look, this pattern is the same as the one on our Xitian check-in wall."
"Junior, we are talking about serious business!" Ye Ziqing was a little annoyed.
She discovered that Jiang Qin was a person who was purely in love, and a serious love-brained person, because in the past ten minutes of conversation, he was either pinching the girl's hand or feeding her water.
Yes, she admitted that this girl was the most beautiful one she had ever seen in her life. Even she couldn't help but want to look at her, let alone a young man like Jiang Qin who was full of vigor and vitality.
But the business card she just gave him was priceless for the group purchase, but he only cared about the pattern on it.
Ye Ziqing found it hard to understand how a man like Jiang Qin could manage to achieve such success in business. Was it because the team he recruited was better than his own? !
Jiang Qin returned the business card, and puffed out his chest to the point where it could be placed on the table: "Senior sister, I will consider your opinion carefully, but I don't want to seek help from outside forces too early. I, Jiang Qin, also have my own pride."
"Then you should think about it carefully. I will come again after the summer vacation. Junior, doing business is a serious matter. I hope you won't be so careless."
Ye Ziqing picked up her bag and left the office angrily in her high heels.
"Senior, please drive slowly. You are always welcome on 208."
Jiang Qin chased after him and sent him over. Ye Ziqing suddenly turned around and said, "You can't buy my uncle's personal contact information even if you spend money. You really missed a lot."
Jiang Qin waved goodbye calmly, then walked to Feng Nanshu leisurely: "I guess you have memorized the phone number on the business card just now."
Feng Nanshu was stunned for a moment: "I...seem to have really remembered it."
"You are worthy of being the academic genius girl Feng Nanshu. With you as my great treasure, I can get all the news for free!"
The rich young woman puffed up her cheeks, suppressed her smile, and took the pen he handed her with a cold face. She quickly wrote a string of numbers on the paper, thought for a while, and then wrote a line of address at the bottom. Those were the small words on the business card.
Jiang Qin picked up the phone number, looked at it, then folded it in half and locked it in the drawer.
Although the promotion of group buying has been temporarily shelved, this network of contacts may not be needed now but may be needed in the future. If you preserve it first, it will definitely play a key role in the future.
Borrowing connections? You don’t have to pay anything back. People who do business know that free things are the most expensive.
Jiang Qin felt that the word "borrow" had never appeared in his dictionary, only "steal" or "rob".
