On the 19th of July, all the major media outlets finally found the hot topic.
The impact of the e-commerce war on the 18th of July was not small.
With Taobao's participation, almost all the e-commerce platforms were involved.
Although online shopping was not mainstream, the annual market was worth tens of billions, which was considered huge in the country. This year's growth was even more shocking, and it was likely to exceed 100 billion by the end of the year.
A market that involved more than 100 billion capital always had something to pay attention to.
In addition, there were also physical industry tycoons such as Far away and Suning, as well as the IT industry giant Ali. Naturally, there were many people who paid attention to them.
If there were people who cared, there would be a market to report on.
It was difficult for newspapers and financial media to get accurate data, but it was not difficult for the major online portals to get a rough estimate.
Early in the morning, Sohu was the first to release the news.
On the first day of the big promotion yesterday, Far Away made a comeback and beat Taobao!
According to Sohu's data analysis, on the 18th, Taobao's sales should be around 220 million.
Far Away exceeded Taobao's by a large margin, with a conservative estimate of 450 million.
Other than that, Jingdong and Dang Dang's sales were between 30 million to 40 million, followed by Suning at around 20 million.
As for the other platforms, although there were not many that exceeded 10 million, there were at least 100 million combined.
Based on this calculation, even if the entire e-commerce market's sales did not reach 1 billion yesterday, it was still close.
When this analysis was released, many people were shocked.
Especially the tycoons in the traditional industries, they were even more solemn. 1 billion a day's sales did not seem like a lot. To achieve this number under the promotion, it was not even comparable to the sales of a few major retail groups in a day.
Don't forget, e-commerce had only been developed for a few years.
Now, it had already leveraged a market of 1 billion. In a year, it would mean that it would have a market share of hundreds of billions.
The domestic market was only so big. If e-commerce was diverted, it would naturally mean that the physical industry's performance would be weakened.
In the past, people did not pay much attention to it, but at this time, people with sharp eyes felt threatened.
Not long after the report came out, retail giants such as Gome, China Resources, and RT-Mart held an emergency meeting.
Previously, they either did not do e-commerce platforms, or they gave up after thinking that it was not worth it.
However, when the results of the e-commerce war came out, everyone felt that they had neglected this market.
Of course, although they were taking it seriously, it was not to the extent of taking it seriously yet. Even so, all the retail groups had started to study whether they should prepare their own online shopping malls.
…
The e-commerce market was coveted by others, but people like Li Dong didn't really care.
The bigger the plate, the bigger the market.
It would be great if everyone entered this market. At that time, it would definitely attract more attention.
Regardless of whether it was Taobao or Far away, they were already a few steps ahead and weren't afraid of others taking a share of the spoils.
…
Far away from the building.
Li Dong arrived at the company early in the morning.
Li Dong sat on a chair and watched the news report with a smile on his face.
Finally, it felt good. Sou Gu's estimated data was not much different from Li Dong's.
Yesterday, Far Away Mall's total sales was 460 million, which meant that Taobao's data should be about the same.
In total, Far Away's sales were twice that of the other party.
It was not nice to be in second place all the time. It was fine if he didn't surpass them, but he managed to beat them twice. Li Dong couldn't help but be proud.
Although he was proud, Li Dong didn't forget his place.
This time, it could only be said that Far Away had caught the other party off guard. If they were to really compare, the gap between Far Away Mall and the other party was still obvious.
After this event, Far Away Mall should have an explosion.
In the past, Far Away Mall's daily sales were less than 20 million. Li Dong roughly estimated that after the event, Far Away would be able to maintain sales of more than 30 million.
The annual sales should be able to exceed 10 billion, maybe one-third of Taobao's.
One-third might not seem like much, but Li Dong knew how difficult it was to make such a leap.
In 2006, Far Away's daily sales were less than 8 million, and the annual sales were only about 1 billion.
This year, it had increased by ten times. Although the base was not big, it had actually created a miracle.
Such an achievement was naturally due to the establishment of Far Away's logistics system this year, as well as the explosion of the entire market. Of course, there were also the support of various events.
He thought about it happily for a while. When the office door was knocked, Li Dong hurriedly wiped his mouth.
Naturally, there was no saliva. Li Dong just did it subconsciously.
After saying, "Come in," Yuan Chengdao pushed the door and entered.
As for Yuan Chengdao, Li Dong was now a little unhappy no matter how he looked at him.
It was not because of his ability, but mainly because Li Dong felt that this guy was definitely thinking about Shen Qian.
Everyone in the upper management of the group knew that Shen Qian was Li Dong's person, and this b * stard actually dared to steal her.
Of course, whether this was the case or not, Li Dong was not sure, but the possibility was very high. Thinking of this, Li Dong was naturally not very happy with him.
Although he was unhappy, as Shen Qian said, he definitely could not kick Yuan Chengdao away at this time.
Yuan Chengdao had only been in office for half a year, and he had not made any big mistakes. If he was kicked out at this time, the group would definitely be in trouble.
At this critical time, Far Away was expanding everywhere. Once something went wrong, it would be big trouble.
Li Dong was not really a fool, and he could not use his petty thoughts at this time.
Seeing Yuan Chengdao enter the door, Li Dong's face showed a smile, and he stood up and said, "Sit here."
He led Yuan Chengdao to the resting area next to him and sat down. Li Dong asked, "How's the morale at the mall?"
Yuan Chengdao said with a face full of smiles, "Morale is high! The mall has been established for more than a year, and this is the first time we have defeated Taobao. Everyone is very happy. "
"We should be happy, and I am also happy. But don't be arrogant, and don't be discouraged. This is a special case, and we have to appease everyone later. "
"Okay, I understand."
After a brief chat about the mall, Li Dong did not continue this topic.
Instead, he said, "How's the matter at Yu Province?"
Speaking of Yu Province, Yuan Chengdao nodded and said, "Mr. Zhang has gone to Yu Province for inspection, and he just met with the Yu Province government yesterday. Next, we will enter Yu Province. After all, it is close to Jiangbei, and many things are very convenient. I am not too worried here. The key is Shanghai … "
Speaking of this, Yuan Chengdao thought for a while and said, "General Manager Li, is it a bit too early to open the Shanghai market?"
The two had discussed this topic several times. Li Dong frowned and said, "It's not early. I know what you are worried about. But my current idea is to open the national channel first. The initial investment might be a bit large, and the pressure on the group is also heavy. But as long as the general framework is set, it will be much easier for us later. Shanghai is the economic center of the country, and opening the market in Shanghai is different. "
Yuan Chengdao did not deny this. He nodded and said, "I understand, but I am worried about the personnel."
Yuan Chengdao was too lazy to ask about money now.
So far away, they are not short of money. Anyway, Dong Yu Real Estate still has land, and they can get loans.
In the past, Yuan Chengdao did not expect Dong Yu Real Estate's land could be sold for so much money. Now that he has some confidence, he does not want to say more about this.
The key is talent. Yuan Chengdao said solemnly, "Currently, most of the group's senior executives are holding several positions. President Zhang Mingduo is in charge of East China, President Chen Heming is in charge of Central China, President Qi is in charge of North China, and President Wang is in charge of the entire Southwest China … In fact, this scope is a bit big. For example, East China has many key areas. Whether it is Sunan, Shanghai, or Zhejiang, they are all gathered together. Mr. Zhang had the ability, but he couldn't handle this business alone. In addition, we have just entered Shanghai, and it is best to separate Shanghai and find a stable person to hold the fort. "
This point coincided with Li Dong. Whether Zhang Mingduo is capable or not, he definitely is. Before he came to Far away, he was the Deputy CEO of a large group.
But Yu Province and other places are enough to hold back Zhang Mingduo.
Now, Zhang Mingduo is definitely unable to hold on. As one of Yuan Chengdao's men, Yuan Chengdao can't wait for his men to be in charge. Why would he think of dividing the power?
But if the power is not divided, East China will be in chaos. Not only will Zhang Mingduo be in trouble, but Yuan Chengdao will also be in trouble.
Li Dong knocked on the table lightly and said after a while. "What do you mean?"
"Poach people!"
Li Dong originally thought he had a good suggestion. When he heard the word poach people, Li Dong immediately rolled his eyes.
Who doesn't know poaching people? The key is that there are many disadvantages to poaching people, and it is useless to poach ordinary people.
It is not easy to find a candidate to hold the fort, and it is difficult to poach such people.
Seeing that Li Dong does not agree, Yuan Chengdao said seriously, "I know that cultivating our own talent echelon is the right way, but we do not have this ability at the moment. Far away's talent echelon training will not be effective without three to five years, so the only way is to poach people. But the people I want to poach this time are not ordinary people. "
"Who do you like?"
"Two people!"
Li Dong saw how serious he was, so he smiled and asked, "Which two?"
"General Manager Li should know them. Chen Lang and Ma Jialiang!"
"Pfft!"
Li Dong was drinking tea when he heard that. After a while, Li Dong coughed and said, "Are you sure?"
Who are Chen Lang and Ma Jialiang?
One is the general manager of Huarun Vanguard, and the other is the head of Suguo.
These two people are indeed famous in the industry.
Speaking of which, these two people are enemies. Although they are part of the same group, they are not close.
Although Suguo and Huarun Vanguard are both under Huarun Vanguard, they are more like rivals. Sometimes, the competition is not much better than outsiders.
If he can poach them, Li Dong will naturally be willing.
These two people are veterans. Ma Jialiang is pragmatic, and Li Dong often learned his wolf pack tactics. With this tactic, he defeated other opponents in Jiangbei in a very short time.
As for Chen Lang, he is academic.
He may not be very professional in the specific business, but his control of the general direction is first-class, including the development trend of the entire retail industry.
Huarun Vanguard can become the first in the retail industry in the future because of his big spending in the past few years.
The industry calls him the king of mergers and acquisitions, and this is not a derogatory term.
He quickly completed the national layout of Huarun Vanguard through mergers and acquisitions. In fact, Huarun Vanguard has been a bit blind in the past, and there have been large-scale losses.
It was not until Chen Lang came to power and took over Suguo that Huarun Vanguard turned around.
In the past, Huarun Vanguard was not very strong in the domestic retail industry, and the arrival of Chen Lang changed the situation.
Now that Yuan Chengdao said that he wants to poach these two people, Li Dong is a bit speechless. "Manager Yuan, one is the CEO of Huarun Vanguard, and the other is the senior vice president of Huarun Vanguard, and the chairman of Suguo. Isn't it too unreliable to poach these two people?"
Yuan Chengdao's eyes slightly lit up. "It is not very reliable in normal times, but according to my information, Ma Jialiang and Chen Lang have a lot of differences.
Huarun Vanguard wants to merge Suguo into the group, not just Suguo alone, which Ma Jialiang will not agree to.
But because of our involvement, Suguo is difficult to expand in the Sunan, and this has led to the further deepening of this conflict.
When I say these two people, I don't mean to poach both of them, but to poach one of them.
If the two of them continue to quarrel, the headquarters of Huarun Vanguard will definitely make adjustments. Whether it is transferring Ma Jialiang or Chen Lang, it will be a big problem.
At this time, if we make some more trouble in the Sunan, their conflict will be more prominent.
Then we will take advantage of the situation and talk to both sides. I think the possibility of poaching one of them is relatively high.
The biggest possibility is Chen Lang. He is your schoolmate, and you have had contact with him before. Moreover, his hometown is also in Jiangbei. I think the possibility of poaching him is very high. "
Hearing this, Li Dong pondered for a moment and said, "If, and I mean if, he is poached, what position do you think should be arranged for him?"
"He is now the CEO of Huarun Vanguard. If he comes, it is suitable for him to be in charge of the entire supermarket, and he also has to be the vice president. But in this way, what about President Sun? "
Actually, according to Yuan Chengdao's thoughts, Sun Tao can totally give up this position and be the vice president alone.
Compared to Chen Lang, Sun Tao's ability is still inferior.
But he can't say this out loud. Sun Tao is the founding father of Huarun Vanguard, and his seniority in the group is second only to Li Dong.
At this time, if Sun Tao steps down and Chen Lang takes over, wouldn't it be disappointing?
But since he said this, Yuan Chengdao is already prepared. He quickly said, "Of course, that is not what I mean. What I am thinking is that if we can poach President Chen, he can be the group's COO. The C00 of Faraway Group can't be compared to the general manager of a subsidiary of Huarun Vanguard? Just in Huarun Vanguard alone, there is a chairman above him, and a lot of people in the parent company are riding on his head. In comparison, if he enters Far Away, his position will only be below three to five people, and there will be more room for development. "
Li Dong touched his chin. Just as he was thinking, Yuan Chengdao suddenly said, "Also, if President Chen really comes, we can implement a share incentive plan!"
Li Dong raised his eyebrows and looked at him without saying a word.
Far Away had actually implemented a share bonus plan, but it was just a bonus.
Now that Yuan Chengdao mentioned it again, it was obviously not that.
Far Away's share incentive plan sounded like a share incentive plan, but in fact, everyone could only get a bonus according to the stipulated proportion, and they had no other rights.
It was just an extra bonus every year, and it was naturally good for ordinary employees.
But for people like Yuan Chengdao, such a small amount of bonus was useless.
They needed management rights, and they needed shareholder's rights.
Yuan Chengdao's initial plan said that he hoped to let everyone hold shares in cash.
This meant that these senior executives would personally invest and buy the company's shares.
Of course, this kind of shares was not unlimited.
Once they left before the deadline, the company could buy them back.
Speaking of which, this was not a loss for Li Dong.
Not only could he raise a sum of money, but he could also motivate people.
The key was that in the current situation, Li Dong had expanded too much. It was because he had too much power, and others did not have the right to refute, that he could do these things.
However, once these people were in power, even small shareholders would represent constraints.
Far Away might still be Li Dong's word, but when there were frequent objections, it would not be good for the company's stability.
Of course, holding shares in cash was not without its benefits. At least, it would be much easier to recruit talents.
Just as Yuan Chengdao said, if they used the big move of holding shares in cash to poach Chen Lang, Far Away had a high chance of poaching Chen Lang.
Shares in private companies were different from state-owned companies.
Even if Chen Lang worked in Huarun Resources for the rest of his life, he might not be able to do anything in the end. Even if he got the shares, there would definitely be restrictions. At least, he could not transfer it to outsiders.
Far Away was different. This was a private company.
After getting the shares, as long as the conditions were met, they could buy and sell it freely after a few years.
Furthermore, Far Away was not a small group, and many people would be tempted.
Anyway, there were pros and cons, and Li Dong was not in a hurry to refute.
Last year, when Yuan Chengdao said this, he did not even consider it.
But this year, the situation was different.
Far Away was indeed lacking people. They lacked real elites, and it was difficult to poach some top elites with high salaries.
Only when they saw hope, the hope of integrating with the company, would they be tempted.
After thinking for a few minutes, Li Dong said, "According to your plan, how many shares are suitable?"
“5%!”
Yuan Chengdao saw that Li Dong did not reject it, and his eyes lit up.
His 5% shares were the company's shares.
Far Away's current market value was probably more than 1 billion.
Using 1 billion to win people's hearts and attract talents, Yuan Chengdao felt that many people would be tempted.
Of course, he was not selfless, and he did not hide his selfishness.
As the Group's CEO, if this plan was implemented, he would definitely get a lot of shares.
At that time, he would become a millionaire or even a billionaire.
Although it was cash holding shares, that was relative. These people could not take out so much money, and they would naturally have other plans to offset it.
Anyway, as long as the plan was implemented, his net worth would definitely skyrocket.
Li Dong looked at him again and said after a long time, "Let me think about it, and I will give you an answer later."
Yuan Chengdao did not dare to say anything else. It was a good thing that Li Dong did not reject it immediately. If he said too much now, it would cause Li Dong to have reverse psychology.
