Everyone on the scene was discussing, and the audience watching the live broadcast was also discussing.
Half a year, 300 billion in revenue was indeed worth discussing.
Today, it had only been five years since the establishment of Far away Group, and it was one month away from the third anniversary of the establishment of Faraway Group.
The growth of Faraway Group was beyond everyone's imagination.
Of course, Li Dong did not disclose the data in detail. If he did, everyone would find that the proportion of the online shopping market was getting bigger and bigger!
In the first half of 2009, Far Away's e-commerce sector had created 120 billion in transactions and 90 billion in self-operated business.
90 billion in the previous retail industry, it could be ranked in the top three.
…
Shanghai.
Qin Yuhan was eating with Qi Fangfang in the restaurant downstairs.
The restaurant was not big. At this moment, the owner responded to the customer's request and played the live broadcast of the East Star Charity Night on his laptop.
When they heard Li Dong say that Far Away's revenue in the first half of the year had reached 300 billion, the customers who were eating also started discussing.
While the others were discussing enthusiastically, Qi Fangfang carefully looked at Qin Yuhan.
Qin Yuhan saw the look and chuckled. "Why are you looking at me? Don't always be like this. I'm not that fragile, okay? It has been so long. The more you are like this, the more uncomfortable I am. "
Qi Fangfang was slightly relieved, and then she could not help but say, "We don't have to be envious of him. Our ordering network has recently started to expand in various districts in Shanghai, and the performance is also good. Today, our daily orders in Shanghai are close to 10,000 orders! Our daily turnover is more than 300,000. If we continue to expand this year, our first year of business will have a revenue of hundreds of millions … "
Qin Yuhan rolled her eyes. Revenue my ass!
Are orders from outside considered as revenue for the ordering network?
Obviously not!
The current revenue of the ordering network mainly came from the commission of the self-built logistics team and the fees for restaurants to enter the ordering network.
In fact, in order to open up the market, the free entry policy was still implemented in Shanghai.
If they wanted to charge fees, they had to at least let the restaurant see profits. At that time, there would not be much resistance to charging fees.
Now, the main source of income for the Food Order Network was the commission income of the self-established logistics team. In Shanghai, the Food Order Network adopted self-operation of express delivery.
Currently, the commission for express delivery was not considered too high. One order was 2 yuan, and the actual revenue of the online ordering site was only about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a day.
In reality, this amount of money was barely enough to cover all kinds of expenses. It might not even be enough.
When Qi Fangfang said this, Qin Yuhan glanced at the computer screen from time to time while eating. She said, "There seem to be more and more take-out websites now. Just in Shanghai alone, there are five or six of them this month.
Although the scale of these teams was small and they were promoting in different school districts, the competitive pressure was indeed great.
In addition, since he wanted to seize the market, the current takeout orders were mainly concentrated in first-tier cities.
I've thought about it. We can temporarily give up on the cities around Shanghai.
Next, I plan to lead the team to the first-tier cities such as Beijing and Shenzhen to explore the market.
The money from last time was only enough to set up a few first-tier cities.
By the time Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou are completed, I'm afraid that we won't have any money left. It will take a long time for us to rely on the restaurant to continue operating.
Do you think we should continue to raise funds? "
Qi Fangfang was at a loss when she heard what she said. After a while, she said, "What else can we do if we don't raise funds? Yuhan, sometimes I'm really scared. Say, if the Food Order Network can't do it, then won't you … "
Qin Yuhan invested a lot in the Food Order Network.
Not only had Qin Hai and the others spent all their money, but not long ago, Qin Yuhan mortgaged the villa and began to sell East Rain Dessert House.
Even so, tens of millions of yuan could only be set up in a few first-tier cities.
If they wanted to continue to expand the market, they would need countless funds.
This was still under the current situation where the competition was not too fierce. Once competitors entered the market, large companies would also intervene. Both of them could predict that the next thing would be a money-burning war.
In fact, this trend was already there.
After the Food Order Network became big in Shanghai, it seemed to have given some people an opportunity.
In this life, Wang Xin's employment was Far Away, so he naturally did not have the chance to create Meituan. However, without Meituan, there would always be a replacement.
Not long ago, Dianping, which was established in Shanghai, seemed to have an idea. Recently, Qin Yuhan and Qi Fangfang heard from some restaurant owners that Dianping seemed to want to set up its own food delivery website.
Dianping was established relatively early, and there were many people in Shanghai.
It had received a few rounds of financing before. Although its strength was not necessarily stronger than the current Food Order Network, the other party had a foundation, so it would not be too difficult for them to raise funds again.
At that time, there might be a bloodbath in Shanghai.
And if Qin Yuhan lost in these battles, she would really lose all her fortune.
In Qi Fangfang's opinion, most of the money Qin Yuhan used now was the compensation given to her by Li Dong. Once this money was lost, there would be nothing left.
Seeing her worry, Qin Yuhan smiled and said, "Don't say such discouraging words. How do you know that we can't do it?
In terms of capital, we are actually considered strong now.
At least in the current field of food delivery, we can't say that our strength is the strongest, but we are one of the best.
The others should be the ones who should be worried.
We have already started to make arrangements outside of Shanghai, and the others are still tossing around in a campus.
From this point of view, we have an absolute advantage.
In the future, there will be big companies entering … "
Qin Yuhan bit her lip and glanced at the computer screen. Suddenly, she snorted and said, "Then I won't admit defeat. Even if I admit defeat, it's not to these people. In terms of capital, we are not afraid of others!"
At this moment, on the computer screen, the camera happened to be facing Li Dong.
Not only Shen Qian, but Hu Xiaorui also appeared on the camera at this time. She was talking to Li Dong in a low voice with a calm face and a smile on her face.
This made Qin Yuhan feel a little upset. This stinky girl, she used to call her sister.
In the end, she could not get over this hurdle now, and she did not even have much contact with Li Dong.
But this girl still went to Li Dong's side every day.
No matter what, she was still Hu Xiaorui's ex-wife, and to be honest, in terms of social status, she was far inferior to Hu Xiaorui.
Did this girl, Hu Xiaorui, really not care at all?
As Qin Yuhan thought about this, she blurted out the words that came out of her mouth.
When Qi Fangfang heard this and saw that she was not paying attention, she could not help but be a little dazed. Then, she understood what Qin Yuhan meant.
In terms of capital, in Hua Xia, no matter how big the group was, it might not necessarily be as strong as Far Away's capital.
Far Away felt that it did not have enough capital, but that was because the scale of Far Away's investments was too large. Investments that were less than ten billion did not feel much.
But to outsiders, using hundreds of millions of capital was considered a big investment.
At present, the online restaurant began to cover Shanghai. In fact, even with the self-operated logistics team, the money spent was less than 30 million.
If they really wanted to find a backer like Far Away, this money was simply not worth mentioning.
But Qi Fangfang still could not help but think, what was the situation between Qin Yuhan and Li Dong now?
She was now a little confused about the relationship between the two.
Whether she understood or not, Qi Fangfang saw that Qin Yuhan was absent-minded, and did not say anything more.
…
At the same time.
Dongping.
Compared with Qin Yuhan's entanglement, Yuan Xue was much more open-minded.
While eating slowly, Yuan Xue looked at the computer screen. Looking at it, Yuan Xue suddenly smiled and said, "I suddenly feel that it is very interesting to be a star. What do you think about being a star?"
Wei Yuan, who was wolfing down his food, heard this and said with a surprised face, "You want to be a star?"
Yuan Xue chuckled and said, "Is there a problem?"
Wei Yuan's restaurant was not too far away from her.
In addition, Yuan Xue almost provided duck soup for free. After Wei Yuan came to eat a few times, he almost refused to leave.
Now not only he came, but also often brought his family to eat and drink.
Yuan Xue did not care about this. She opened a restaurant because she was bored. Even if she did not give Wei Yuan food, she would give it to others.
She and Wei Yuan knew each other. In Dongping, they could talk when they met Wei Yuan.
For strangers, there was no one to talk to.
And Wei Yuan probably knew that she and Li Dong still kept in touch, so some things could be a little more open.
Wei Yuan did not care about eating at this time. While wiping his mouth, he said to the waiter next to him, "Pack an old duck for me. I will take it back to eat later."
When the waiter entered the kitchen, Wei Yuan whispered, "Is it appropriate? To be honest, the word "star" sounds bright and admired by ordinary people, but in the eyes of Dongzi, it is probably not very good, right? You can open a snack bar, but you also want to be a star … "
Yuan Xue slightly raised her eyebrows and said, "What's wrong? I like it. There is no need to let him like it. What's more, I know the woman on TV. She is the boss of East Star. I have thought about it. I will go find her later … "
"Cough, cough, cough …"
Wei Yuan almost choked to death. In his heart, he mourned for Li Dong for a few seconds. He was trying to stir up trouble.
At this time, Wei Yuan did not say anything and continued to eat. He said while eating, "If you really leave, where can I go next? It's good that you are here. I don't have to pay for food for several months. How about you continue to operate the restaurant here, and I will continue to come to eat in the future? Anyway, that guy has money. It's good to help him. "
Yuan Xue couldn't help but laugh. "Alright. I've been thinking about the day when I'll overdraw my card, but I realized that I can't finish it no matter how much I use it. Let's continue this shop then."
"Do you really want to go to Pingchuan?"
Wei Yuan did not really care about the free meal. He just felt that Yuan Xue going to Pingchuan now was not causing trouble.
At this time, the smile on Yuan Xue's face faded slightly. After a while, she said, "He hasn't contacted me for two months. I don't know what I really think now.
But I know that maybe, this is the end of our intersection.
But in my heart, there is still a little bit that I can't let go.
I will go there once to see him. I will not take the initiative to find him, nor will I disturb his life.
If even becoming a public figure can't attract his attention and concern, then let this end be drawn in advance.
Dreams, will eventually wake up one day.
Of course, I will not go to Hu Xiaorui. I will find another small company to try. If I can't even become a public figure, then it means that I don't even need to attract others' attention.
In this case, there is nothing to worry about.
By the way, you don't need to say these things. This is between us. "
Wei Yuan sighed softly and nodded, "I know. Don't worry, I won't say anything.
But … Forget it, I don't know what to say.
But now, there were all sorts of messy things happening in entertainment companies.
You don't need to be stubborn. If you really encounter trouble, you still need to call in advance.
Anyway, you are still young, and Dongzi is not a good thing. If you really want to do that, while you are young, you can dump him and find a better one.
Although we aren't classmates, I used to run over to Dongzi's place a lot. I still have some admiration for you, Class Monitor Yuan.
Now, he's reduced to opening a snack bar. Even I can't bear to watch such a thing happen.
Well, that's it. If you need anything, call me. Although I don't have great ability, I can still help with small things. "
Then, Wei Yuan looked at the waiter who had just come out and asked, "Is the soup still hot?"
The waiter knew that this guy was a friend of the boss's wife, and quickly said, "It's hot, it has been cooking on the stove."
"That's good, class monitor, I'll go first. You make your own decisions. I won't get involved."
Leaving these words, Wei Yuan went straight out of the door with the pot.
After going out for a while, Wei Yuan quickly took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Li Dong, and then said embarrassedly, "Class monitor, I can help you up to this point. If you really leave, you can't blame me."
Saying that, Wei Yuan shook his head. This person, it seems that it is good to have no future.
Look at Dongzi, now he has the ability, great ability.
But is life really so comfortable?
It looks bright and dazzling on TV, but looking at the actual situation, it is not necessarily as comfortable as his own life.
…
Grand Theater.
Li Dong picked up the phone and glanced at it, then his eyebrows twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything. Li Dong stuffed the phone into his trouser pocket.
Shen Qian on the side didn't care, nor would she ask anything because of a text message.
In fact, at this time, Shen Qian had no time to care about this.
At this moment, a charity auction was going on.
And Shen Qian has been paying attention to the auction item.
What was being auctioned was none other than an item that Li Dong had donated this time.
In fact, this thing has attracted a lot of people's attention.
Many people are surprised that Li Dong would take this out for auction.
Golden Pixiu!
This Golden Pixiu, which is widely known in the outside world, was auctioned by Li Dong as a charity auction item, which was beyond many people's expectations.
There are rumors in the outside world that the rise of Li Dong relied on the wealth brought by this Golden Pixiu.
But now, it is just a charity auction, and Li Dong actually auctioned this, which naturally attracted countless people's attention.
Don't think that big entrepreneurs are not superstitious. Many entrepreneurs attach great importance to Fengshui and luck.
Since this thing has been so widely spread, it is better to believe it than not. If it were them, they would not donate it even if they were beaten to death.
Now, in order to compete for this Golden Pixiu, there are more than ten entrepreneurs participating in the auction. Some A-list celebrities and those with capital are also participating at this moment.
Shen Qian has no time to care about Li Dong. Sitting behind Li Dong, Hsu Shengzhe said gloomily, "If I knew it would be so profitable, I would have invited eight or ten of them back then. The cost doesn't seem to be much. It's already 5 million. What are these people thinking? "
At this time, Li Dong also suppressed the matter of Yuan Xue. He smiled and said, "You can go back this time. To be honest, if you touch my fortune, it might really have some effect. Longhua is going to have an IPO. If you don't go back, Shen Qian will have to come back. Actually, it's really not necessary. You don't know, anyone who comes to my office now stares at this thing. The longer I look at it, the more I feel uncomfortable. It's stealing my limelight. This time, take the opportunity of the charity auction to invite this god out. Otherwise, it will be really difficult to deal with it. "
Hsu Shengzhe pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll try. But let's make it clear that if your wife bids more than 10 million, I won't participate."
"Okay."
Li Dong responded. At this time, Hsu Shengzhe glanced at the bidding price and raised his hand. "8 million!"
"10 million!"
"11 million!"
"…"
As soon as his voice fell, there were a few more bids in the auction house.
Hsu Shengzhe's face twitched. These guys are crazy!
Back then, he and Hu Ming gave the Golden Pixiu together. He knew how much it cost.
As for the rumors circulating in the outside world, he also knew all about it. However, how could he not know if it was because of this Golden Pixiu, Li Dong, that made it rise?
Now, it had directly risen to more than 10 million.
Hsu Shengzhe spread his hands and said helplessly, "Forget it, I give up."
He gave up, but Shen Qian did not give up. In the end, she bid 18 million and took it back.
Li Dong did not know whether to laugh or cry. However, Shen Qian glared at him fiercely and said angrily, "Our house only allows in and not out. Next time, these things are not allowed to be auctioned!"
Li Dong laughed. "Got it. But you have to say, the next time we auction it, it will be at least 20 million. Nowadays, almost everyone in the collecting world plays like this. If there's a chance, I'll go in and take a look and get some good things back. Later on, I'll definitely make a lot of money. "
Shen Qian could not be bothered to reply. No matter how profitable the collecting world was, to Li Dong, it was only for fun.
It was better not to think too much about counting on this to make a lot of money.
At this time, the next round of auction began. Hsu Shengzhe looked out and said, "Longhua's IPO application has been approved. At the end of this month, I'm going to Hong Kong for a roadshow. Tencent's listing seems to be resuming soon. Why don't we go together? "
Li Dong frowned. "Aren't you trying to divert the flow of people at this time? To put it bluntly, you want to go public with me? You're courting death. "
Hsu Shengzhe said impatiently, "Do you think I'm stupid? Not now. I'll go public when Tencent's listing resumes and the price rises. Tencent will rise with the help of the east wind, and investors will be optimistic about you. Longhua also owns 20% of your shares. Of course, it will attract the attention of others. Of course, if you fall badly, then it's another matter. I'm afraid I'll have to delay it until the limelight dies down. "
Li Dong turned his head and glanced at him. After a while, he said, "Tonight, if you lose less than 20 million, don't blame me for ruining your listing!"
"You're robbing me!"
Hsu Shengzhe scolded. This bastard really doesn't care about money.
But who asked him to say this when Tencent's listing resumes? It was good enough that Li Dong did not make trouble for him.
Although he scolded, this was actually the final stage of Longhua's listing. It was good to take the opportunity to make a name for himself at the charity night.
This time, the whole country was watching. It would be good for him to show his face at this time.
Hsu Shengzhe did not reject it too much. After that, many people paid attention to Longhua.
Li Dong was not in the mood to care about him. He was still thinking about the text message sent by Wei Yuan.
Yuan Xue was really daring. Why did she think of becoming a star?
Li Dong felt a headache coming on. He glanced at Shen Qian next to him.
At this time, he could only let nature take its course. At least he had to wait until the child was born.
