Special troubles of rebirth

The first banquet held since the courtyard was converted into a club, all the people trying the dishes were our own people.

Sitting on the main seat was Wang Yu, flanked by Guo Yuan, Song Qiuyun, and a big double.

The chef hired by Song Qiuyun is a master who is good at cooking Shandong cuisine and is also good at Huaiyang cuisine, so the several specialty dishes on the table are quite suitable for Wang Yu's appetite and are delicious.

Not to mention Song Qiuyun and Dashuang, they were full of praise for the chef's skills.

Only Guo Yuan had a rosy little face and a very good color, but she was so depressed that she couldn't eat much.

Everyone knew by heart that the courtyard was so big that everyone could hear the sound of her being beaten, so they just didn't tell the truth.

The dinner didn't last long. After eating, Wang Yu chatted with the chef for a few words, made one or two comments, and then returned to Xiangshan Villa.

Wei Yutong had come back a long time ago. Wang Yu came to the study in her pajamas after taking a shower and saw her writing quietly.

Without disturbing her, Wang Yu curiously walked to her side and watched.

Although he doesn't know calligraphy, he can still appreciate beauty and ugliness. Wei Yutong writes in running script. It's hard to judge the strokes, but the structure of the font is extremely pleasing to the eye in Wang Yu's eyes.

When Wei Yutong finished the last word, Wang Yu began to praise: "She is indeed a talented woman from the Chinese Department of Fudan University. This handwriting is so beautiful!"

"Oh, you also know calligraphy?"

Wei Yutong tilted his head and looked at Wang Yu: "I am using Er Wang's font, what about you?"

Wang Yu quickly waved his hand: "I can't read but I can't write. You might as well kill me if you let me grab a brush. The words I write are as ugly as chicken feet."

Wei Yutong smiled and did not really try to embarrass Wang Yu. He put down the brush and wiped his hands with a towel: "How was your talk with Xiao Haiyang today?"

"It should be pretty good. I fooled you and left like a chicken blood!"

Wang Yu said with a smile: "Guo Yuan is sorting out the information. You can take a look at it on the way there tomorrow morning. Since Xiao Haiyang is visiting in a private capacity, there are some things that can only be touched upon. This kind of vague pie Who can’t draw?”

"I have never asked you before, what do you think of the first-round valuation of 50-55 billion that I proposed in this internal statistical report?"

"15-20 billion yuan!"

Wang Yu sat on the sofa opposite the desk: "In the first round of selling 15% of the shares, we will use part of the funds to acquire a company."

Wei Yutong did not raise any objection to Wang Yu's valuation of 15-20 billion yuan and 15% of the equity financing. On the contrary, he was particularly interested in the acquisition mentioned by Wang Yu.

“You want to acquire another food delivery company?”

The first thought that came to her mind was the rice dumpling takeout that was competing with Guocheng Takeout in the northern market.

"I'm not interested in rice balls!"

Wang Yu did not deliberately tease Wei Yutong and directly announced the answer: "A company called Dianping.com."

"Dianping.com?"

Wei Yutong muttered, savoring the name of this company.

After a while, her eyes lit up: "Is this company specialized in...?"

"This company was founded in April 2003 and is the largest urban life consumption guide website in China. It is mainly committed to providing domestic consumers with a platform to comment and share information on local catering, leisure, entertainment and other life services, and to Provide objective and accurate localized consumer information guide to the vast number of potential consumers."

Wang Yu nodded in confirmation and continued after an introduction: "Currently, Dianping.com's first third-party review model has attracted the active participation of millions of netizens. The reviews reviewed by users include life service merchants such as catering, leisure, and entertainment. It has covered a large number of stores in major domestic cities, and the amount of information and coverage are constantly growing rapidly and being updated independently. Among them, catering reviews are currently the most popular content among consumers and gather the largest amount of information, and have been formed to cover cuisines, tastes, Unique information such as environment, service, atmosphere, recommended dishes, per capita consumption, etc. enable the public to obtain objective and effective guidance in daily consumption."

Speaking of this, Wang Yu couldn't help but sigh: "At the beginning, Engine Technology also considered taking this track, but after comprehensive consideration, we still did not get involved. Now we can only acquire it."

"Actually, your Guoke Ticketing Online has a function similar to this, except that you focus on film and television entertainment, while it focuses on daily consumption."

Wei Yutong understood what Wang Yu meant: "Are you going to build Guocheng Takeout into a closed-loop business circle?"

".So to speak"

"?"

Wei Yutong heard a hint of uncertainty in Wang Yu's tone: "Do you have any other ideas?"

“I have some ideas, maybe I’m considering the ultimate version of orange takeout!”

Wang Yu smiled: "This is a big killer. If you use it to show off the road show before it goes public, the effect will be far greater than the one before Nayuki went public!"

Wei Yutong's eyes suddenly lit up.

She walked around the desk and walked to the sofa next to Wang Yu and sat down. She propped her arms on the armrests of the sofa and looked at Wang Yu: "Come on, tell me, I want to take a sneak peek!"

“When we started Guocheng takeout, our idea was to expand the scale as much as possible and form a large-scale skeleton!”

At eight or nine o'clock, it is when a person's thinking is most active. Wang Yu also said he was high at this time and actually lit a cigarette. Fortunately, Wei Yutong's energy at this time was all concentrated on Wang Yu's verbal description. , didn't care that he smoked, and even took the initiative to help him move the ashtray from the desk.

"There are several benefits to doing this. The first is to make the brand bigger and stronger and occupy the first-mover advantage in the takeout market. As long as a user thinks of ordering takeout, even if he doesn't use it in the end, the first thing he thinks of is us!"

Wang Yu continued while smoking a cigarette: "Guocheng takeout belongs to the Internet + traditional industry. Once the concept of the Internet is introduced, a head-gathering effect will be formed, which is what we often call winner-take-all. Of course, we cannot be 50% % of the market is occupied, but as long as it occupies more than % of the market, Guocheng Food Delivery will become an unshakable giant in the food delivery industry."

"It sounds a bit like a monopoly in it."

Wei Yutong's thoughts also followed: "But it is different from the traditional monopoly that relies on resources and administrative means."

Wang Yu nodded: "There are many types of monopoly, including technology monopoly and resource monopoly. To a certain extent, Guocheng takeout can be regarded as a monopoly in a certain sense."

"There are multiple factors involved. I also noticed some of the data in it when I was making statistical reports. If taken individually, it would not be considered outstanding in the industry, but when combined together, the effect of scale is revealed. "

Wang Yu smiled and concluded: "It's not that complicated. In the final analysis, it's just about throwing money to squeeze competitors out of the market."

"So what does the complete body orange takeout you call look like?"

“When Guocheng takeout reaches a certain level, we will start to make it smaller!”

In Wei Yutong's puzzled and surprised expression, Wang Yu began to reveal his own point of view: "As a consumer, most people's consumption behavior will not leave the city where they are located. So based on this concept, within the scope of consumption Given the characteristics of shrinking margins, can we take orange takeout on a city-by-city basis to form a unique service platform that is tailored to local conditions, and use this platform to cover most of consumers' marginal consumption?"
