When Feng Tingting saw Li Dong in a daze, she couldn't help but feel nervous.
After ten seconds, Li Dong recovered and asked, "What's the name of your website?"
"Women's Street!"
Feng Tingting immediately replied. Actually, Li Dong didn't mind what she said.
"Women's Street?"
Li Dong muttered. He had never heard of this website before, but he knew the model of this website.
In the future, Beauty Talk and Mushroom Street used this model. To sum it up, it was a shopping guide model website, considered a vertical e-commerce.
In his previous life, these websites relied on Taobao to carry out community-based e-commerce shopping guides. They disrupted and reorganized Taobao's products to compare and share. In a short period of time, they attracted the attention of a large number of female customers.
These shopping guide websites were different from websites like Rebate Network.
In the future, Taobao had almost banned Rebate Network. That was because Rebate Network had embezzled the profits of the platform.
But shopping guide websites were different. As long as these websites did not set up their own e-commerce platform, they could complement the platform they relied on.
The purpose of the existence of shopping guide websites was to help e-commerce platforms reorganize information and increase transaction volume. When necessary, they could also divert traffic from their inventory. It was considered a good model.
Of course, it was still the same saying. An assistant must have the concept of an assistant.
If you set up your own e-commerce platform or even purposely tarnished the platform's products, then you would be an opponent. Third-party platforms would not hold back, and banning you was not a lie.
Li Dong thought for a while and asked, "Then, which platform are you mainly doing business with now?"
Feng Tingting replied awkwardly, "Not yet. We can't talk about cooperation. We are only doing comparison and sharing of Taobao's products.
Far Away Mall's pricing system is more uniform, so we did not do it for now.
Also, our website had just been set up, and we don't have many users. Our influence on the merchants is limited.
What we are thinking now is to share and compare for free.
In the future, when our traffic increases, we can collect click-through fees and advertising fees to make a profit.
Especially a third-party platform like Taobao, it is more suitable for us. We can divert traffic for merchants and collect commissions. "
Seeing that she had even thought of a profit model, Li Dong couldn't help but smile. "You have some ideas. What's the difficult part now?"
"There's no money for marketing, no money to build a server, and we can't even pay salaries. Also … "
Feng Tingting carefully glanced at Li Dong and said, "Also, we want to do cross-platform shopping guide sharing and comparison services in the future, but I'm afraid Far away …"
Far away from what?
Far away, they would be banned!
Far away, most of the shops here were self-run, and the proportion of C2C business was relatively low.
Relatively speaking, the price was a little higher than Taobao.
Once Women's Street became popular and cross-platform sharing was carried out, it was very likely to cause some adverse effects Far away and cause some customers to be lost. This was still a possibility.
Li Dong didn't really care about this. Whether it would affect or not depended on how it was run.
If he could blackmail Distance's prices, he could naturally blackmail the authenticity of Taobao.
Once the shopping guide website had a bias, that would be the advantage of e-commerce platforms. It was very likely that they would pull in many customers from Taobao.
In the future, shopping guide websites like Beauty Talk and Mushroom Street had high valuations. Naturally, there was a reason for their existence.
E-commerce giants like Taobao and Jingdong had also once set up their own shopping guide websites. They wanted to control these vertical e-commerce platforms in their own hands.
Why did they want to control them?
Of course, it was because it was beneficial to them. Otherwise, these giants wouldn't be so bored as to meddle in everything.
Li Dong couldn't remember how much these shopping guide websites were valued, but he had a vague impression of them. At their peak, they were estimated to be worth a few billion US dollars. It was definitely not low.
They could be valued so much because they could create so much value.
If these girls really succeeded, they would be rich in the future.
Li Dong didn't have any impression of the name Women's Street. He didn't know if it existed in his previous life, or if it was a butterfly effect brought about by his rebirth in this life.
But no matter what happened in the future, Far away would benefit from controlling the shopping guide websites now.
Li Dong rubbed his chin and said, "You're thinking too much. It's not like you're far enough away to block everyone's mouths. It's better to let it out than to block it out.
If I kill one of you, another will appear.
Even if you take back the platform's entrance, it will be the same for you all to do business with other websites. You don't have to worry about what Far away thinks.
But this kind of platform is too dependent.
Once the major e-commerce platforms take back their entrances, you all will have no room to survive.
Of course, this is not absolute. It depends on your influence. If you can bring help to the platform, everyone will be willing to open their entrances for you.
What I'm afraid of is that it will be hard to open up more markets in the future.
Once you all reach a bottleneck and can't produce good content, you will definitely think of building your own platform. Once that happens, you will be a competitor. "
Feng Tingting and Qian Jiajia were dumbfounded. You even considered this?
They really did not think about this. They only thought of creating a sharing website to bring traffic to some shops and collect traffic fees. At most, they would collect some click-through fees and commissions.
But when it came to Li Dong, they were already thinking of building their own platform to compete for business.
Li Dong ignored them and continued asking, "How many users do you have now?"
"Two hundred thousand," Feng Tingting said hurriedly.
"That's quite a lot. You just graduated, right?"
"We were doing it before we graduated. Our website officially launched in July. It has been three months now. Two hundred thousand is nothing to Far away and Taobao."
Although Feng Tingting said that, she was actually quite satisfied.
This was also the capital they wanted to seek for financing. If there were no results at all, what was the point of financing? Did they really think that others were fools?
With that, Feng Tingting said again, "We did some research some time ago. Through some of the products we shared and recommended, the sales volume generally increased by about 15% within a month. Of course, our website is small and we have few users. We don't have many products to promote and share. But when we grow in scale … "
Before she finished speaking, Li Dong smiled and said, "That makes sense. It seems that the effect is good. I'll try it myself later. Maybe it will have an effect."
The two women were instantly stunned!
Did we hear it wrong?
Did Li Dong say that?
We are so pitiful and weak. We just want to rely on you to get some benefits. In the end, you are a giant among giants, and you want to compete with us?
If Li Dong really wanted to do it himself, the result was obvious. They could not compete with him!
They had no money and no people. How could they compare to Faraway Group?
There was nothing wrong with Li Dong wanting to do it himself.
But … why did they want to scold him so much?
Even Qian Jiajia's face turned red at this time. She looked at Li Dong in disbelief. The legend had collapsed!
The god-level character in her heart was actually fighting with two poor women for a job. Was there any justice in this world?
Just when the two were dumbfounded, Li Dong smiled and said, "Why? Are you surprised?
It's business. If you can do it, I can naturally do it too.
Moreover, this kind of vertical e-commerce platform is likely to infringe on the interests of e-commerce platforms in the future. This is one of the reasons.
Secondly, if it is done well, it will attract customers to the platform and increase sales and customer base. This is the result we want to see.
Thirdly, I feel that this model can still make some money. It's not like it's a non-woven product.
Of course, there is also a disadvantage. If we do it ourselves, it will not be fair and just. It is likely to cause customers to be biased and lose customers, which is not good.
This kind of shopping guide platform, in fact, the key is the trust of the users.
It doesn't matter if your first recommendation is not good. If the effect is not good for a few times, then you will lose the trust of the users and lose the space to survive.
Therefore, doing it ourselves is actually just a preventive measure. It does not necessarily have much benefit for the platform. "
Both of them were confused by Li Dong. What does he mean?
Are you going to do it or not?
Li Dong chuckled and said casually, "I'm just joking. I can't be bothered to do this. It's too troublesome. If I have the time, I might as well spend more effort on the platform.
When the big data effect is out, the so-called shopping guide platform will have less of a presence.
Of course, there are still some prospects in the past few years. Take the opportunity to raise funds, get listed, and earn a sum of money. It is not a big problem. It is more than enough to become a billionaire.
But now, you are still too weak. You do not have enough influence and will not be of much help to the platform.
If you can really affect the entire platform …
Alright, that is not very likely. It is not that easy to turn the tables on the platform.
How about this? I will give you a number. You can contact them later. It should not be a problem to raise a few million or tens of millions.
As for you wanting to raise funds here today, to put it bluntly, the possibility is not high.
It is not that the model is not good, nor is it anything else. Everyone's mind is not here today. It is pointless for you to come. Even if it really succeeds, they might dare to ask for all of your shares with a financing of one or two million.
The two of you are still young and do not know anything. It is very likely that you will be tricked. "
At this moment, the two of them were not in the mood to listen to what Li Dong said. They were looking at the millions or tens of millions!
Tens of millions!
Are they dreaming?
When they came here, they were prepared. If they could raise funds, they would accept a few hundred thousand. If it was more than a million, it would exceed their expectations.
But now?
Li Dong said that it is not difficult to raise a few million or tens of millions. This is completely out of their expectations.
Does this mean that after the financing is completed, they might all become millionaires?
At this time, millionaires are still worth some money, especially to these few fresh graduates.
Also, their initial investment in the website is not much.
The website is built by them, and they know how to design and design. Their main task is to promote the website. They do not have money to advertise and rely on manpower to promote the website.
In terms of cost, they spent less than 200,000.
As for manpower, it is worthless before they succeed.
But now?
If the financing is successful, their net worth will be a million or more.
Also, Li Dong said that if they do well in the future, it is not difficult to become a millionaire.
The eyes of the two of them are almost twinkling. Are we really not dreaming?
Li Dong also understood their feelings. He smiled and did not say anything.
The investor that he asked them to look for is naturally Shen Qian.
When Li Dong said that he will do it himself, it was really a joke. He did not have this idea and did not have the energy to do it.
Li Dong knew that the shopping guide website can make money.
But in this day and age, there are many profitable businesses. He does not have the time and energy to take over all of them.
He asked Shen Qian to raise some funds and let them do it themselves. This way, he can just wait to earn money.
In the future, Far Away Mall will need this platform. It is not difficult for Li Dong to take over. He already said that he will raise millions or tens of millions. How can he not get the shares?
He did not take all of it because they are related. Also, he still needs them to work for him to earn money.
Li Dong did not say much to them. He did not have Shen Qian's name card. He gave them the number and said, "Contact them yourself. If you think it is not good, try looking for investors. I am just in charge of pulling the strings. It is up to you whether you succeed or not. You can walk around on your own. I still have things to do here. I will not entertain you. "
After saying this, Li Dong walked out of the hall. Since Shen Xuehua is here, I have to entertain her.
After he left, Feng Tingting and Shen Xuehua woke up.
After a while, Qian Jiajia said with a flushed face, "Tingting, did you succeed?"
Feng Tingting's face lit up as she nodded vigorously and said, "Success! Even if it is a million, as long as the other party is not too much, we will still make a profit. If it is 10 million, then … "
"10 million. Even if we give up 80% of the shares, we will still get a profit of dozens of times!" Qian Jiajia was very good at calculating.
If they were to raise 10 million and give up 80% of the shares, the total value would be as high as 12.5 million. Their 20% would be 2.5 million.
And it was only three months. An investment of 200 thousand. Excluding the manpower, it was more than ten times the profit!
Feng Tingting saw her eyes shining and said hurriedly, "Calm down. Don't embarrass yourself. We will talk about it when we meet the other party. 10 million is just an illusion. Li Dong did not say it must be this much. "
"Yes, calm down. Calm down …"
The two were mumbling and forgot to continue paying attention to Li Dong.
…
At the entrance of the hall.
Li Dong laughed. "Auntie Shen, I did not expect you to come in person. I should have welcomed you personally."
With outsiders around, Shen Xuehua did not find fault with him. She smiled. "You are too kind. I hope you will be more polite about the Weibo financing later."
Li Dong laughed dryly and said, "Of course. But there are other investors here. I will try my best to get them for you."
Shen Xuehua smiled but did not say anything. She stared at Li Dong for a while and did not say anything.
Li Dong felt helpless. Why do you want so much money?
Your daughter is mine. Do you and Old Du have an illegitimate child?
Otherwise, the money is mine. What's the point of earning money?
He had given her a lot of money when they were splitting the profits. Wasn't it tiring to earn money?
He did not think about himself. He was already so rich, yet he was still earning money.
He did not want to let go of the opportunity to earn money when he saw the two girls. He was not qualified to criticize Shen Xuehua.
