Chapter 587: The Firecracker Girl
Chapter 587 The Girl with Firecrackers
On New Year’s Eve and the first day of the new year, Jeju was filled with the sound of firecrackers.
Although the city had repeatedly warned against setting off firecrackers, there were still many people who set them off secretly because the management was not strict.
Red confetti was spread on the snow, and the red and white colors complemented each other, which was extremely festive.
This atmosphere lasted until the third day of the new year, and the New Year atmosphere began to gradually fade away.
It seemed like a gorgeous performance was coming to an end, and the days soon returned to peace, which made people sigh.
On the night of New Year’s Eve, Qin Ziang prepared a truckload of fireworks and sent them to the riverbank, both large and small, so that Feng Nanshu played with them until the morning of the fifth day of the new year. In her medium-sized LV handbag, there were still three firecrackers and a bundle of firecrackers.
A cool and aloof sister, with a cold expression, thinking about going out to set off firecrackers every day, there is really a kind of alternative contrast beauty…
”Jiang Qin, go set off firecrackers.”
On the morning of the sixth day of the New Year, Feng Nanshu changed into a down jacket, wrapped herself up thickly, revealing only a pair of clear eyes, like a timid cat.
Jiang Qin leaned in front of her and kissed her: “You were not like this before, you are so cool!”
Feng Nanshu stared at him for a long time: “Actually, I used to be naughty.”
”You still know you are naughty, go after breakfast.”
”Oh.”
After breakfast, Jiang Qin took Feng Nanshu downstairs and set off firecrackers in the snow, attracting a large group of children.
The shop of the third uncle opened early. Although there was not much business, there were many people greeting and handing cigarettes between the reception and the departure.
He stood on the side of the road smoking, squinting at the two people, smiling with thousands of wrinkles on his dark face.
These two people are about to have a baby, but they are still like a baby.
Jiang Qin was standing by the roadside at this time. He let go of Feng Nanshu’s hand and let her go on her own. He looked around and found that many people were preparing to return.
Some loaded a lot of things in their cars, and some were pulling suitcases out.
Most of these people were working in other places and had to go back early to pack up and prepare to return to work.
”Uncle Qing, are you going back so early?”
”Yes, the rent has increased again this year. I checked out before the New Year. This time I have to go back early to find a house, otherwise I won’t be able to catch up with the start of work. The next time I come back, I may have to wait until you and Nanshu’s wedding.”
”Who said we’re getting married this year?”
”Hey, everyone said so. It’s spread all over the community.”
Jiang Qin narrowed his eyes and turned to look at Feng Nanshu squatting on the ground. He found that she had a sullen face and silently looked away, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
Uncle Qing smiled, waved goodbye to Jiang Qin, and then embarked on the return journey to the south to work.
In Hongrong Home, a resettlement community, more than half of the people moved here from rural towns. There are not many
people like Yuan Youqin and Jiang Zhenghong who have stable jobs.
Most of them go out to big cities to make money, and they don’t have much time to stay at home.
As more people return, the takeaway orders from first- and second-tier cities have begun to increase continuously.
Before and after the New Year, this market seems to have brewed a powerful force, and it gradually began to flourish at the end of the Spring Festival.
In particular, the number of registered takeaway deliverymen has skyrocketed like a reservoir opening to release floodwaters.
This gap between the New Year and the New Year is not surprising.
During the New Year, you sit at home and listen to others bragging that they have made tens of thousands of yuan this year, or bought a new house.
If you don’t make money, you will inevitably feel unbalanced and always think about making a big move in the new year.
In addition, with the hype of the takeaway industry by a number of media such as Tonight’s Headlines, Tencent News, and Weibo, there are indeed many people who decide to deliver takeaways at the beginning of the year.
Taking advantage of this industry boom, the business scope of several major platforms has also begun to expand infinitely.
Nuomi.com, owned by Baidu, has directly circled five cities at the beginning of the year. Various online and offline advertisements continue to spread, recruiting food delivery riders while promoting the app.
Koubei Takeaway, owned by Alibaba, began to deal with several apps acquired before the New Year, and quickly took root in the surrounding Jiangcheng, Xingcheng and Yongcheng.
However, the fastest and most stable development is still Ele.me.
Not only is the number of its riders growing very fast, but the delivery time is getting shorter and shorter. Although the discounts cannot be compared with others, other advantages are almost all. In
the food delivery industry, delivery speed itself is a key.
Because the delivery is slow, the taste of the takeaway will be greatly affected.
Moreover, most people order takeout because they don’t have time. If they really have to wait for an hour, there is no need for takeout.
Zhang Xuhao felt that the time was almost ripe, so he quickly began to deploy in Kyoto, Shenzhen and Guangdong.
At this time, Tencent’s investment in Ele.bu was finally finalized, which accelerated the wild growth of this platform. In
just half a month, the business of the three platforms gradually covered more than 70 cities, and the total number of registered riders exceeded 100,000.
Among them, Ele.bu occupied 15 cities. Although it was not as many as the other two, its number of riders accounted for two-fifths.
When the big companies left one after another, the development of Ele.bu was not suppressed, but instead had a momentum of soaring into the clouds, which made Zhang Xuhao and Chen Jiaxin have a strong confidence that almost floated.
”The advantage of Ele.Bu is that their dispatching system is very efficient. We should increase investment in this area and optimize the rider side.”
”In addition to the optimization of the dispatching system, the most critical thing is the publicity.”
Robin and Luo Ping, former regional managers of Lashou.com, joined Koubei.com after Lashou.com fell apart.
Because of their mature O2O market experience, the development of Koubei.com has always been planned by the two of them.
In addition, Alibaba also directly parachuted in Guo Liang, a person in charge who came from a middle school, to lead the entire project.
”Mr. Zhang of Ele.Bu is young, but he has strong business capabilities.”
”Young people nowadays are all roles that cannot be underestimated…”
The winter vacation soon came to an end, and the spring flowers in March began to gradually wake up.
Under Chen Jiaxin’s suggestion, Ele.Bu, which has a large number of riders, began to learn from Dianping’s early routines and launched a one-yuan flash sale.
The entire food delivery industry has officially entered the stage of grabbing users.
To be honest, the development speed of this industry has actually exceeded many people’s expectations.
Because when the group buying industry just started, its rapid development speed was jaw-dropping.
After all, there were thousands of group buying websites on the market at that time, and the more people joined in, the higher the flames. After burning money, the market developed abnormally, and it made sense that it was so rapid.
However, the development of the takeaway industry is even more fierce than the group buying industry.
The reason is that takeaway has gradually become a rigid demand for people nowadays, and the development of the smartphone market is also changing with each passing day.
The takeaway business can be said to have all three advantages: time, place, and people.
At this time, Jiang Qin had already brought Feng Nanshu back to school. As soon as he entered the school gate, he saw the blue promotional poster of “Ele.bu”.
Linchuan is a second-tier city after all. Especially in the past few years when group buying has developed, the consumption level here has increased year by year. It is not surprising that it will be targeted by takeaways as a target city.
Moreover, Ele.bu itself was built on the basis of the university town, so it is not surprising that it would think of coming to the university town for promotion.
Jiang Qin parked the car at the door of the girls’ dormitory, took down Feng Nanshu’s luggage, and also took two large bags of things.
All of this was prepared by Yuan Youqin, including food, drinks, and clothes.
”There’s a meeting at the headquarters this afternoon, and everyone in the class will have dinner together in the evening, so I won’t eat with you.”
”Then will we meet again in the evening?”
”Come over to kiss you in the evening.”
Feng Nanshu held her breath after hearing this, thinking that her brother’s disrespect for her friend was getting worse and worse, and he didn’t even act anymore.
Then she nodded obediently, looking like she was waiting to be kissed, waved her hand, and ran upstairs with her things.
Gao Wenhui and the others had already been squatting in the dormitory, some were watching TV series, and some were preparing graduation papers. When they saw Feng Nanshu coming back with big bags, they immediately surrounded her.
Every time school started, they knew that Feng Nanshu’s mother-in-law would bring her a lot of delicious food, and this time was no exception.
At this time, Jiang Qin turned around and drove to the group headquarters to hold a meeting with employees on new goals for the new year.
The group supply chain continued to be laid out to provide source supply services to more merchants. Most importantly, they wanted to make group takeout a success.
This was the goal he set for himself before graduation.
In other words, within half a year, they have to become the number one in this industry, which means they have to enter and harvest at the same time.
