Chapter 161 Caring for employees to the core [Please subscribe! ]
January 2009, 1. Tomorrow is the Little New Year. Beijing will have another light snowfall. At around 17 a.m., Wang Chengguang and Wu Xiaowei went out for a walk. Xiaowei looked at the street and said with a smile, "It's been two days. Alibaba didn't attack you, nor did they go to Xiuzhi Fubao to snatch users?"
"Isn't this a little abnormal? You're free enough to hang out with me."
Wang Chengguang laughed, "I guess the small tricks are meaningless, but the big tricks are hard to keep to yourself. A lot of the things I did and the preparations I made, it's not impossible for Jack to find out if he just spends money and uses his connections."
"If he carefully examines himself, he will know that Taobao is still a platform where people buy goods randomly out of ten times, and maybe three or four or even more are counterfeit and shoddy products."
It’s not that Jack doesn’t want to manage it, but Taobao has become too big, with monthly transaction volume exceeding 100 billion yuan.
How many categories, types, quantities, etc. are involved in these 100 billion commodities? That is the 4 trillion that has not been proposed, and the billion that has not caused the real estate and various commodity prices to soar.
As long as Jack checked, he would know that he had already sent people to shop on Taobao and take photos of the counterfeit and shoddy products they bought as evidence.
Brother Xiao Ma said that he also collected a batch of evidence!
These things are used in conjunction with the internal beta of Xinghuo Payment. If you buy a computer on the Xinghuo platform, which was popularized by internet celebrities such as Shi Xiaomeng, and get cheated by buying inferior products, not only will you get the latest and best parts replaced for free, but you will also get compensation of 200 or 500 yuan in real money.
Consumers who have not been cheated can also receive vouchers for large supermarkets worth around 50 yuan.
In comparison, Taobao is being rubbed in the mud, and its image has been tied up again, which is very dark.
As they walked, Wang Chengguang smiled again and said, "I have prepared tens of millions, even hundreds of millions. Even if I lose tens of millions of RMB a month, as long as I can attract tens of millions of users, everything will be worth it."
"I didn't expect that the compensation in December was less than 12 yuan, but it's hard to say about January. The compensation to shoppers this month may be several million yuan."
We randomly checked and revisited more than 2000 people, and found that more than 200 were cheated, a one in ten probability. However, that was before the news spread, and the process was carried out privately and in a low-key manner.
After this kind of thing breaks out, there will definitely be people who bought computers in the past but were not cheated. They want to make a small fortune and deliberately say that they were cheated. Not only do they want new parts, they also want two hundred or five hundred.
The world is so big and there are so many people, so there will be many people who take advantage of others.
But is this money worth spending? Can 1000 million RMB be used to exchange for million Spark Payment users? billion RMB for million users? Now that we are starting late, we can only spend money to buy users.
Also, it is impossible for everyone to want to take advantage of this small advantage. There must be evidence to take advantage of it. As long as the assembled machine is made of new parts, there will be a receipt invoice, or configuration list, seal, etc. when it is shipped.
If shoppers want to get a bargain, they must also make sure that the seal is not broken, otherwise Xinghuo will not easily admit that you were ripped off when buying a computer.
The new machine is covered by repairs. After it is installed before leaving the computer city, the seal is a very important means of identification. Each accessory part basically has a corresponding warranty card and quality assurance label, etc.
As for the assembly machine that starts with second-hand parts, that is easy to deal with.
If you tell others, countless groups and teams will agree to spend less money to buy users without blinking an eye. When you have 100 million Spark Payment users...
Just open your mouth, there are many people out there who are willing to spend 10 billion to buy 10% of the shares.
Spark Payment will be pulled out for separate financing and will be listed in the future.
When it comes to finance, the pie will get bigger and bigger in the future, and it is impossible for one company to dominate the market.
As the two walked, the snow was getting heavier, but this did not affect their interest in playing. When they reached the moat of the Second Ring Road, Wu Xiaowei saw many people skating on the frozen river. Her eyes lit up, "Shall we go skating too?"
Wang Chengguang was speechless. "If you want to skate, go to the skating rink. If you want to ski, go to the ski resort. It will be fun if there are ice holes on the frozen river."
Wu Xiaowei laughed awkwardly, "Forget it then, let's go skiing at the ski resort some other day, it should be more interesting than ice skating."
The two men turned north along the road beside the moat and walked a few hundred meters. They saw a commotion ahead and shouting. Among the passers-by, someone was running for his life from north to south. Behind him, a young girl shouted, "Catch the thief," and chased after him.
There was also a middle-aged man chasing and shouting something like "get out of the way".
There were citizens who were eager to stop them, and there was a young man running in the front, holding a fruit knife in his hand. As soon as he saw someone trying to stop him, he would grab the fruit knife and swing it a few times with a fierce look on his face...
Three people ran southward in three groups. Just as Wu Xiaowei could see the situation clearly, a thief had already run to within more than 20 meters of her and Wang Chengguang.
Xiaowei hurriedly took his arm and tried to make way to the side of the road.
Wang Chengguang patted his hands and said, "Don't be afraid. I won't overestimate my own abilities and interfere in everything. I won't do anything I'm not sure of... But I have to help you this time. The one chasing after the thief is Miaomiao's father. Did you see clearly?"
Wu Xiaowei screamed in shock, "Miao Miao's father? Captain Zhong? How could he... That's right, he's a policeman, in plain clothes?? I guess he met him after get off work."
She also saw clearly that a young thief was running in the front, and the middle-aged Zhong Wen was chasing him within ten steps. The young girl who was shouting to catch the thief was already thirty or forty meters behind.
Wu Xiaowei had seen photos of Zhong Miaomiao's father, but had never met him in person. However, Miaomiao had introduced him to family photos.
She was still stunned. Wang Chengguang squatted down and quickly kneaded out a snowball, pressing it very firmly. Then he stood up and threw a snowball at the thief, hitting him right in the nose... Perhaps the force was too great, the snowball hit him so hard that his body, which was rushing forward with his head bent, suddenly jerked back and he almost fell backwards.
The fruit knife in the thief's hand fell suddenly, he staggered, stopped, and covered his nose with his hand.
Wu Xiaowei was delighted, "Yes, you can throw snowballs, just like having a snowball fight. I'll give you..."
When she squatted down in surprise to play with the snow, the citizens nearby who originally wanted to help but were frightened by the thief's fruit knife, all started squatting down to play with the snow as if a switch was turned on.
But it was too late. Just as the thief was rubbing his nose in embarrassment and grimacing in pain, Zhong Wen had quickly caught up with him. He subdued him and made him lie on the ground. After he took out handcuffs and handcuffed the thief, he looked up at Wang Chengguang.
Wang Chengguang pulled Wu Xiaowei and walked over, "Uncle Zhong, you don't even want to rest after get off work?"
He had never met Zhong Wen formally in real life, but he had seen photos of him… He knew who he was even without seeing the photos. As for Zhong Wen? Zhong Miaomiao also said that her father was a fan of Wang Chengguang and had asked for autographed photos through Da Miaomiao.
Zhong Wen suddenly realized what was going on when he heard the greeting. "Boss Wang? I didn't expect to meet you here. Thank you for your bravery. Otherwise, this guy would be very slippery. I've been busy for a few days and I'm not in good shape. He might really slip away." When he got up, he twisted the young thief and said in a daze, "Tomorrow is the Little New Year. Miaomiao's mother has gone to Shanghai. The girl is alone... I really trouble you, Boss Wang, to take care of her."
Wang Chengguang, “…”
He was very attentive to Zhong Miaomiao, so he kept smiling and asked curiously, "It's almost the New Year, why are you so busy?"
Zhong Wen sighed helplessly, "During the Spring Festival travel rush, after the Olympics, the number of thieves and pickpockets near the train stations seems to have revived. The Municipal Bureau has allocated 30% of its personnel to help the railway units, but they are still very busy."
Wang Chengguang suddenly realized, and Wu Xiaowei nodded, "Yes, yes, I haven't experienced much around the train station, but I heard that the thieves are rampant."
It's not just the Spring Festival travel rush now. The Olympics have just ended and the travel has been relaxed for a few months. Not to mention the railway stations in Beijing, the main railway stations in the provincial capitals are still very...
After a few simple jokes, Zhong Wen asked about Zhong Miaomiao's recent situation and asked Wang Chengguang if he wanted a banner for his bravery. After being rejected, he took the thief towards the train station, which was not far from the main station.
The two sides were far apart. Wu Xiaowei smiled and pinched Wang Chengguang, "As a boss, you really care about your employees to the core..."
Wang Chengguang coughed and said, "How about I prepare 500 dumpling lunch boxes tonight for those who are helping Uncle Zhong at the Municipal Bureau and the railway? I can have Miaomiao and Xu Hongdou deliver them tomorrow."
Wu Xiaowei was stunned for a moment and asked curiously, "It's normal for you to ask Miaomiao to deliver it. After all, how many lunch boxes have you sold to different employees in various departments of Xinghuo? Xu Hongdou?"
Wang Chengguang explained in detail at the beginning, "Jingjing's personality will collapse sooner or later, and we have to find someone to take over. Although posting a Weibo to call on fans, when you are sure that you can ensure your own safety, do more heroic deeds, such as helping the police catch thieves, there are certain risks for the parties involved."
"But this kind of social atmosphere can still be encouraged and advocated. If someone is injured while doing something righteous, or is persecuted by other members of the thief team, the company can come forward to help them."
"This not only conveys positive social energy and guides good public order, but also helps Xu Hongdou to build a good image."
"Catching petty thieves is not as good as the nationwide fight against human trafficking, but criminal groups like thieves are indeed disgusting. A normal person's loss can be big or small if they are robbed once. But as long as the Spark Group can improve its image, it will also be a plus for Spark Payment."
"I plan to take out 100 million as a fund to help those who are injured while brave enough to help them solve the troubles caused by their bravery."
Wu Xiaowei was dumbfounded. "You really don't treat money as money anymore. You throw away 100 million yuan at any time."
Wang Chengguang laughed, "Lao Ma must be planning something bad. Before that, he should improve his image to have a better chance of success."
Wu Xiaowei was amused and looked at Wang Chengguang curiously. "Then what do you think will be the next move if Jack Ma makes a move?"
Wang Chengguang shook his head. "Either they continue to praise me like before, but with a cover to divert the fire, it should be fine. Or they spread rumors that I don't like women and force me to come out and clarify to prove my innocence. My resume shows that I never had a girlfriend before I met you. I was 22 years old at that time, and many people pursued me when I was in school."
"Or they could manipulate the internet trolls to force Xinghuo Online Store to lift the restriction of selling only computers and force us to sell all 360 products. Then we won't be able to afford the compensation, and a large number of counterfeit and shoddy products will appear..."
He was still explaining seriously, but Wu Xiaowei was a little slow to react and burst into laughter. The more she laughed, the happier she became. "Hey, is this true? You really didn't have any before you met me?"
"I've heard you say before that we were both first loves, but why do I feel something is wrong? Are you deliberately trying to make me happy? No, would Jack really slander you like that?"
Wang Chengguang's face darkened. "I only mentioned one of the various offensives. If he wants to slander me like that, he doesn't need to show up in person. He can just find a group of girls who once pursued me and guide the public. Then I will either be blamed for having an unclear sexual orientation and possibly liking men."
"Or I'll show my affection with you."
After a variety of moves and exchanges, although he had done a lot of preparation, Jack still had many choices.
The most likely scenario is that they hired internet trolls to attack the Xinghuo online store, which only sells computers. Is this looking down on consumers who want to buy mobile phones, televisions, refrigerators, air conditioners, etc.?
This momentum really can't be continued now.
Once they are attacked in that way and are left unchecked without strict control and supervision, counterfeit and shoddy products will flourish.
However, if Jack wants to do that, Wang Chengguang can consider cooperating with Renmin University Dongzi. The quality of Dongzi’s self-operated stores and flagship stores is also good.
Xinghuo Payment is bound to JD.com and it still wins a large number of people with a punch.
………………
Most of the day flew by.
After Wang Chengguang and Xiaowei had a great time, they drove back to Hesheng International with a large amount of flour and ingredients. This time, there was still a delivery truck following them.
Five hundred dumpling lunch boxes...are still being pre-ordered to be sold to the Municipal Bureau, at 5 yuan per box, one yuan more expensive than those sold to Xinghuo employees.
When they were carrying all kinds of things into 901, Zhong Miaomiao ran out quickly and said in disbelief, "Brother Guang, did you meet my dad today? Did you two meet in real life?"
Wang Chengguang nodded. "Yes, I am planning to make some dumplings and sell them to them as a New Year's Eve snack tomorrow. Five yuan a portion. Go talk to your dad and see if they will accept it."
"It's not free. A box of dumplings costs five yuan now, which is not cheap."
Zhong Miaomiao was speechless, "You met him? Is that your reaction?"
Wu Xiaowei was overjoyed. "What else do you want to say? Uncle Zhong is very grateful to Mr. Wang for taking such good care of you."
Zhong Miaomiao blushed and glanced at Xiaowei embarrassedly, "You are embarrassing me too. Forget it, I'll go make a phone call. By the way, we will sell 500 copies tomorrow on Xiaonian, so will we sell them on New Year's Eve?"
Wang Chengguang was speechless. "You forgot that we are having a dinner together for the 30th anniversary. Several vice presidents of departments are coming with their families. But it would be nice if you could give your dad a few individual portions."
"If they want the dumplings this time, you can go with Xu Hongdou tomorrow. She didn't go home during the Spring Festival. She is obsessed with selling computers and is waiting to save money."
Zhong Miaomiao nodded happily, "Okay, 500 dumpling lunch boxes are only 2500 yuan. The Municipal Bureau or the railway will definitely not be short of this little money."
