Become the richest man in the world starting from the rebirth of college entrance examination

It has been two days since the Lychee flash sale, and Boss Ma has not heard any news about the transportation problems of the 3 MP players, which surprised him greatly.

He wanted to determine Taobao's current logistics carrying capacity based on the transportation of these 500,000 Lychees. If it took Beijing EMS five days to digest these 500,000 units, then he could get a data that the maximum transportation capacity that Beijing EMS could allocate to Taobao was 100,000 pieces per day. With this data, he could determine the future upper limit of Taobao's transportation capacity in Beijing. This data was equivalent to the life and death line of Taobao's logistics.

He estimated that the maximum daily carrying capacity of Beijing's EMS is only more than 100,000 pieces, and even this carrying capacity cannot meet the needs of Beijing's local area, so the transportation capacity that the post can provide to Beijing will be even lower. But according to his understanding, Lychee is obviously Taobao's own delivery, and it should have crowded Beijing's EMS long ago. Why is there no movement at all?

Boss Ma called Sun Tongyu and asked him if he had received any news about Lychee. Sun Tongyu shook his head. He was busy estimating the delivery volume in Shenzhen based on the pre-sale situation on Taobao as requested by Boss Ma, so he was not paying attention to the developments in Beijing.

Boss Ma was a little unhappy and started to pua Sun Tongyu: "Old Sun, you can't do things just because I tell you to. If you want to go further, you should not only do one thing when I tell you to do it, but also think about doing two or three. You can't wait for me to urge you to do it, you have to be self-motivated all the time."

Sun Tongyu nodded ashamedly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ma, I will pay attention!"

"Yeah." Boss Ma nodded slightly. He was a boss who understood management and employing people very well, and he knew how to strike the right balance. He did not continue to blame Sun Tongyu, but asked, "Tell me about what you are doing."

Sun Tongyu said: "I have been following Taobao's summer brand day pre-sales. By monitoring the dynamics of each official store, I have obtained data with a deviation of less than 2%. Let me report to you."

After that, Sun Tongyu took out the prepared documents and said, "As of 40:155 this morning, Taobao pre-sale started 96.1 hours ago, and a total of 60 million orders were generated. Among them, manufacturers in Shenzhen received a total of 700 orders, accounting for 450%. Because the single-day data is not enough, it is not possible to estimate the pre-sale situation in the following days in detail. However, I conservatively estimate that the transaction volume will be around million orders, or even higher, so the orders in Shenzhen should be around million."

Boss Ma nodded and sighed, "Taobao is developing very fast! With so many users cultivated by Alipay, it has skipped the primary stage and directly entered the intermediate stage of e-commerce. Just one activity can generate 5 to 6 million orders. This is really scary. If we don't stop it, we may not be able to compete even if we control the logistics channels. Once such a huge amount of orders is exposed, I wonder how many people will focus on logistics."

Sun Tongyu agreed, saying: "Private investors will certainly realize the huge demand for logistics from the development of e-commerce. If they pay attention to the amazing transaction volume on Taobao, they will be attracted by it."

Boss Ma said: "Fortunately, a logistics system cannot be built in a short period of time. Even if private capital is involved in logistics, it has to proceed step by step. It is difficult to meet the needs of Taobao within half a year or even a year. This period of time is critical for us. If we can make it in this period of time, everything will be fine. If we can't make it, once Taobao breaks through the shackles, we really can't do it anymore."

Then, Boss Ma changed the subject: "If Shenzhen really generates 4.5 million orders on Taobao's Brand Day, then we will do our best to target Shenzhen's logistics. No matter what method we use, starting from Taobao's Brand Day, we will try our best to delay the delivery of express parcels from Shenzhen. By delaying these millions of orders in Shenzhen, and then delaying the express delivery of the entire Guangdong Province, we will have a chance to bring Taobao down. By then, it will not only be the manufacturers of Taobao's Brand Day who will be affected, but also Taobao's sellers in the entire Guangdong Province."

Sun Tongyu nodded and said, "If millions of orders cannot be delivered, it means that millions of buyers will resist Taobao, which will have a huge impact on Taobao."

Boss Ma added: "We need to organize a team of trolls to swipe a batch of orders from Taobao.com, and place orders specifically with manufacturers in Shenzhen. Once Taobao's transportation capacity is paralyzed, we can have the trolls launch an attack on the entire network."

Sun Tongyu said: "Okay, I'll do it right away."

Boss Ma instructed: "Don't forget to inquire about the situation of EMS in Beijing these two days and how the batch of Lychee is doing now."

Sun Tongyu said: "Don't worry, Mr. Ma, I will check it out right away."

Boss Ma then waved his hand in satisfaction, "Okay, get busy."

Boss Ma was eager to see how Haobo Technology was struggling with the transportation of lychees, so he wanted to know the specific situation. However, he didn't know that Zhou Hao had shared 500,000 lychees through six storage bases, which had already dispersed the peak. What's more, the persons in charge of the six storage bases had spent a lot of energy and financial resources on public relations with the local postal system, so the local post office was very cooperative and worked overtime to help. So when Boss Ma was still waiting to see Taobao's joke, some of the lychees had already reached the buyers.

The first batch of buyers who received Lychee were all local or nearby buyers from the six major storage bases. The post office sorted the goods that night, and the local ones were sent to business outlets early the next morning. In addition, the leaders required that Taobao orders must be delivered first and fast, so on the second day of the flash sale, some buyers got the MP3, which was faster than expected. At this time, several forums related to Taobao, Lychee, and Wangwa.com were flooded with buyers who received the goods. The content was the same, all praising: Taobao's delivery speed is so damn fast! Place an order tonight and get the goods the next day. Can you imagine this speed?

Buyers who lived a little further away didn't get the MP3 on the second day, but got it on the third day. Although it was not as fast as next-day delivery, the speed of next-day delivery also surprised them, and a wave of positive reviews for Taobao's logistics was set off online.

In fact, Boss Ma would have seen this information if he had just searched it online, but he didn't do so because he instinctively thought that the goods were still trapped in Beijing. The postal service has a strong parcel throughput capacity and a huge base, but their efficiency is too low, even shockingly slow.

After Sun Tongyu returned to his workstation, he immediately called a friend for help and inquired about the package turnover of EMS in Beijing in the past two days. After tossing and turning, he finally got a statement that he couldn't believe.

"There was nothing special about EMS in Beijing these two days. Just two or three days ago, we received 100,000 parcels from Taobao. But because it was a special case, the EMS system worked overtime that night. Before dawn the next day, all the parcels had left Beijing."

Sun Tongyu was very surprised. One hundred thousand packages? How could this be possible? Taobao clearly sold 500,000 units. Are they faking it? This shouldn't be the case. Based on his understanding of Lychee's production, Taobao couldn't have faked this data because they had 500,000 units of real products produced from the production line. How could it be possible that the number would shrink when it came to sales? It's even more impossible for it to disappear out of thin air.

Judging from the production capacity and sales frequency, Sun Tongyu believed that it was true that Taobao sold 500,000 units that day, but they only shipped 100,000 units. The data deviation was too large. Sun Tongyu thought about it and there was only one possibility, that is, Taobao was quietly accumulating inventory, and the remaining 400,000 units were withheld by themselves.

Although this hypothesis can explain where the missing 3 MP3s went, it doesn't make sense from a normal logic. What manufacturer would actively hold back goods and not sell them? Unless there is room for appreciation, but there is little room for appreciation of MP20s. It almost falls by 3% every six months. Is Taobao courting death by holding on to these MPs?

No matter how he thought about it, it didn't make sense. Sun Tongyu suddenly felt a little worried. After all, there must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Although he couldn't figure it out, it was precisely because he couldn't figure it out that he felt there must be a conspiracy.

Sun Tongyu hurriedly searched the Internet for information about lychee. As a result, a large number of the latest lychee-related content indexed by Baidu immediately appeared on the screen.

As he read through them one by one, he felt as if struck by lightning.

Why did the buyers in Shanghai post that they received the goods at noon the next day after the flash sale? Shanghai is nearly 1,500 kilometers away from Beijing!

Why are there buyers in Guangzhou saying that they also received the goods at noon the next day after the flash sale? Are you kidding me! Guangzhou is more than 2,000 kilometers away from Beijing! When did EMS become so fast?
