December 15th.
Far away from the building.
In the morning, Li Dong received a few senior entrepreneurs.
Jiangbei's business community was quite concerned about what was said at Hu Xiaorui's birthday party.
As the leader of Jiangbei's business community, Li Dong did not infringe on their actual interests. He only hoped that they could help change the payment method. They were willing to help with such a small matter.
However, it involved the issue of capital. Some of the senior entrepreneurs were not at ease.
Over the past few days, businessmen came to visit.
This time, it was none other than Jiangbei's largest jewelry merchant, Ji Yuanzhong and his daughter.
Ji Yuanzhong no longer cared about the company's affairs. The main business had been handed over to his daughter, Ji Lanxin.
However, he had nothing to do. He knew that Li Dong had come up with something new. As the Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce, Ji Yuanzhong hoped to understand more.
…
In the laboratory.
Li Dong used his phone to open the Universal Card and scanned the QR code in front of him. Then, the payment interface appeared on the page.
The large screen in the laboratory showed everything on the phone.
Li Dong entered a number and explained as he operated, "This is the payment page. You can set a password or set a small amount without a password. Of course, I personally recommend entering a password to prevent the phone from being lost and causing unexpected losses. As for the amount, there is currently a limit. However, it does not affect ordinary spending. This is the consumer's initiative. If there is a large payment, the merchant has a special channel. The merchant can also take the initiative to scan the QR code … "
As he spoke, Li Dong had already paid.
At this moment, Liu Hong took out another phone and showed it to everyone. "The money has been transferred. This is real-time.
Of course, the money will first enter our balance account.
If you want to withdraw cash, you can do so at any time.
In addition, transactions between bank cards can also be done in real time.
We have already negotiated with the major banks for express payment services. Most of the banks support the Universal Card real-time transfer service. There will be text messages to remind you.
Our Universal Card page will also prompt you.
In other words, no matter where you are, as long as you log into your personal or business account, you will be able to see every transaction clearly.
The operation is very simple. You don't even need to know how to read. All you need to know is numbers! "
Li Dong continued, "We haven't added any new functions yet, but we've already discussed a collaboration with Xinfeld to support voice operations.
Of course, the most important thing was the voice notification.
In other words, as long as you were willing, you didn't even need to open the Universal Card interface. As long as the background was running, you could receive a voice prompt every time you received money.
This depends on the individual. If you are afraid of trouble, you can cancel it.
Actually, the main purpose of this was to serve the middle-aged and elderly group. Mobile payment didn't seem like a high-end thing to me.
It was an extremely simple, simple, and foolproof software.
The target audience was no longer young customers, but middle-aged and elderly.
A phone and an app that will input numbers after a few clicks. That's more than enough! "
After saying that, Li Dong continued, "The current older models don't support background software, nor do they support the QR code scanning service. Therefore, for the time being, we can only use OPPO's new smartphone to have these services. "
Ji Lanxin said thoughtfully, "So you're saying that this app is actually bound to the phone?"
Li Dong laughed, "You can't say that. It only looks like this for the time being. In fact, as long as the terminal can keep up with our software, any phone can use it.
Moreover, the 3G license is about to be issued, and smartphones are starting to become popular overseas.
Once OPPO's smartphone is released in China, the rest will follow soon.
The cost of a smartphone is not higher than the cost of an older phone.
With the increase in internet speed, coupled with people's increasing demand for the functions of a phone, I can say with certainty that within three years, smartphones will definitely become the mainstream in the market!
Maybe it won't even take that long. In about ten years, as long as the telecom operator's internet speed can keep up with the demand, smartphones will be the mainstream in society.
At that time, there won't be any obstacles to QR code scanning payment.
The limitation of the mobile terminal seems to be a limitation now, but it won't be long before it will no longer be a limitation. "
Ji Yuanzhong saw that his daughter still wanted to say more, so he laughed and said, "We naturally believe in General Manager Li's words. For our jewelry industry, most of the jewelry transactions are reflected through card swiping.
After all, the value of jewelry is not cheap. Except for some low-end jewelry that will be transacted with cash, the rest are all through card swiping.
Therefore, if the mobile payment service can really achieve what General Manager Li said, it is actually a good thing for us.
For us, this is actually a good thing, and it can also save us a lot of expenses.
I saw General Manager Li's operation just now. It is indeed very simple. Even an old man like me can learn it with a glance. For young people, there is no problem.
How about this, Jin Ding's jewelry stores will immediately be fully connected to the mobile payment service.
If General Manager Li doesn't find it troublesome, please send some people to help us guide.
After all, it is the first time everyone has come into contact with this kind of payment method. It is easy to make mistakes. "
Li Dong laughed, "There is no problem at all. This is also our responsibility. Far away is also honored that Jin Ding is willing to join the mobile payment system. Jin Ding's monthly sales reach hundreds of millions. Not to mention all, once more than half of the people use the mobile payment service in the future, it will be a great success for Far away. I won't say anything other than a word of thanks for the President's support this time. You will know in the future. "
Ji Yuanzhong immediately laughed, "General Manager Li is too polite. As the leader of Jiangbei's business community and Jiangbei Merchants, if our Jiangbei business community doesn't support such a small matter, how can we unite?
General Manager Li will send two people with mobile phones and this … this QR code to go with me.
Next, the Chamber of Commerce will hold a meeting to discuss this matter.
Jiangbei's business community, big and small merchants, if they don't support Million Cartoon and Far away, then they are not worthy of being members of Jiangbei's Chamber of Commerce!
I don't have much to do recently, and I have old friends in Jiangbei's Chamber of Commerce all over Huadong.
I'll make a trip to the Eastern China provinces. No matter how effective it is, at least the Jiangbei business community will definitely support Distance! "
Li Dong immediately became solemn when he heard this. He said solemnly, "President Ji, you are embarrassing me by doing this! You are now enjoying your old age, how can I trouble you with this kind of thing … "
Ji Yuanzhong laughed, "Don't be polite with me. I'm old, and my body will become stiff if I don't run. It just so happens that I have some old friends that I haven't seen for years. This time, I said that I am promoting mobile payment for you, but in fact, I just want to see my old friends. General Manager Li, you don't have to be polite with me. When I arrive, I can just drink tea and chat. Far away's people will introduce them to me. It doesn't require me to do anything. General Manager Li is being polite with me, which makes me feel embarrassed. "
Li Dong cupped his hands and didn't say anything else.
Ji Yuanzhong might have made it sound simple, but it's not that simple.
Li Dong might be the leader of Jiangbei's business community, but that doesn't mean that he can order Jiangbei's business community. It also doesn't mean that Jiangbei's businessmen will give Li Dong face.
But Ji Yuanzhong is different. He is the Vice-President of Jiangbei's Chamber of Commerce, and he is an experienced businessman. In the whole of Jiangbei, other than Xu Jianghua, no one is more experienced than him.
He has friends all over the world, especially in Huadong. He has connections with almost all the businessmen in Huadong.
If Li Dong were to go personally, he might not be able to persuade them.
But it's different if Ji Yuanzhong goes personally.
Sometimes, the business community not only looks at strength, but also experience.
Li Dong's strength is definitely enough, but his experience is still lacking. Many older businessmen might not give face to Li Dong.
But Ji Yuanzhong is not weak, and he has experience. Furthermore, he has connections with many people.
He can get twice the result with half the effort.
Ji Yuanzhong is willing to help promote Wan Tong in Huadong, which can be said to save Li Dong a lot of trouble.
Of course, everything is relative.
Ji Yuanzhong is working so hard for Li Dong, but it's impossible to say that it's just because Li Dong is stronger than him.
More importantly, Li Dong's cooperation with Jin Ding hasn't been very smooth recently.
Ever since Ji Lanxin started horse racing and gambling in the club, Li Dong no longer went to the club. Even some of the shopping malls Far away opened recently didn't communicate with Jin Ding about cooperation.
This made Ji Yuanzhong very worried. Far away's brand effect is a hundred times better than Jin Ding's brand!
In the past, Jin Ding's business improved by relying on Far away's shopping malls, and they also took a big step out of Jiangbei.
Now, Far away's attitude is not very clear, which immediately makes Ji Yuanzhong worried.
Once Far away's cooperation with Jin Ding is interrupted, Jin Ding's loss is unimaginable.
Therefore, Ji Yuanzhong personally came to Far away and personally helped Li Dong to promote. His attitude is extremely sincere.
Fortunately, Li Dong agreed.
Since he agreed, it means that Li Dong doesn't hate Jin Ding. There may be other factors in it.
Thinking of this, Ji Yuanzhong glanced at Ji Lanxin next to him and sighed softly.
In the past two years, although he no longer manages the group, it doesn't mean that he really knows nothing.
Ji Yuanzhong has a general impression of when Li Dong stopped going to the Golden Tripod Club and when he distanced himself from Jin Ding.
Since it's not a problem with Jin Ding itself, that is to say, it may be because of something else. For example, horse racing!
Horse racing is not a big deal in Hong Kong and Macau. It is even legal.
However, in the Mainland, it is illegal, especially when the amount involved is relatively large.
Now, Ji Lanxin is doing this in the Golden Tripod Club, and Li Dong is a regular at the Golden Tripod Club. Even in the outside world, everyone's impression of the Golden Tripod Club is that it is the club that Li Dong often goes to.
Once something happens to the Golden Tripod Club, whether it is an insider or an outsider, the first person that comes to mind is Li Dong.
Is it controlled by Li Dong?
Did Li Dong take the opportunity to rope in and corrupt someone?
Are there any officials among the people involved?
…
These possible consequences are a major blow to Li Dong's reputation.
Therefore, Li Dong began to distance himself from Jin Ding.
On the club's side, Li Dong no longer goes.
Li Dong's cooperation with Jin Ding also began to weaken the proportion.
One can't blame Li Dong for making a fuss over nothing, nor can one blame Li Dong for making a mountain out of a molehill and turning hostile ruthlessly.
If it were Ji Yuanzhong himself, he would also make the same choice.
Li Dong is the signature figure of the Golden Tripod Club. It is undeniable that Jin Ding borrowed Li Dong's reputation to open up the market for their high-end jewelry.
Li Dong doesn't care about this. He acquiesces to all of this.
However, Jin Ding is insatiable. After the club became famous, they began to violate the rules. These seem to have nothing to do with Li Dong, but in fact, they are still borrowing Li Dong's reputation.
She is not his wife. Why does Li Dong have to pay for Ji Lanxin?
Ji Lanxin is also smart, but she is muddle-headed.
She probably did not think that the Golden Tripod Club's current reputation is not because of how good their services are or how many services there are.
The real key lies in the fact that the Golden Tripod Club is synonymous with high-end.
Li Dong, Hsu Shengzhe, these tycoons in Jiangbei and even the whole country often go to support them, which is why they have their current status.
Once these people don't go, no matter how much business you have, no matter how good the service is, in the end, it will be lost.
Now, because of the existence of horse gambling in the Golden Tripod Club, and in the beginning, everyone was still a little curious. The departure of Li Dong and the others did not have any impact for the time being.
But as time passes, if Li Dong no longer goes, the club's business will probably plummet.
At that time, the high-end Golden Tripod Club will only become another gathering point for gamblers.
Business may be good, but some things will be completely lost.
The existence of the club is actually not for the club's business, but for Jin Ding's high-end jewelry services and for Jin Ding to gather connections.
This is the root!
How much money can rely on the club to earn?
Ji Yuanzhong could see that Ji Lanxin was neglecting the essentials, but he did not expect it to be so serious at first. Li Dong said that he would not go, and he would not go, without any hesitation.
Until now, Ji Yuanzhong was a little regretful that he did not stop his daughter.
After a few polite words with Li Dong and an agreement on the promotion, Ji Yuanzhong left with Ji Lanxin.
And Li Dong continued to introduce the club to the others.
…
Far away from the building.
In the Mercedes-Benz.
Ji Yuanzhong waited for his daughter to get in the car, paused for a moment, and suddenly said, "The club will be closed for three months for rectification. Gambling is strictly prohibited in the club. Once found, membership will be revoked, and they will not be allowed to enter for life!"
"Dad!"
Ji Lanxin looked surprised and hurriedly said, "The club's business is very good now …"
Ji Yuanzhong's face turned serious, and he said coldly, "Do as I say, go back and think about it!
If something like this happens again, it is uncertain whether Jin Ding will be handed over to you!
I would rather you become a spoiled brat than let Jin Ding be destroyed in your hands!
Outsiders envy me, Ji Yuanzhong, for having a good daughter. I have always thought so, but now, you are a little arrogant.
In Jiangbei, you are not as good as Li Dong, not as good as Hsu Shengzhe, not even as good as Hu Xiaorui!
But look, whether it is Hsu Shengzhe, Hu Xiaorui, or even Hu Ming, who is not following Li Dong!
But you, you have clearly gone a step further than others, but you give up yourself. I am very disappointed. That is all I have said, think about it yourself! "
Ji Yuanzhong then closed his eyes to rest, no longer looking at Ji Lanxin.
After all, old ginger is spicier. Except for a few geniuses like Li Dong, no one can take this step.
