Chapter 738 I feel unlucky when I see you [Please vote for me...]
The neighbor Sun Jiatong talks about is Li Haiyan, the school's psychological counselor. She does not attend regular classes, but only has a mental health lecture in the middle of every month, and she is also responsible for counseling students' mental health.
Because she has few classes, she has a lot of spare time. She has to participate in the square dance below the dormitory building every night, and she is never absent from the mahjong game.
Li Haiyan entered the room, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Hey, are you going to eat?"
Zhu Hanwen said enthusiastically: "As soon as the bowls and chopsticks were brought, Teacher Li came over to sit down and eat together."
Li Haiyan quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, I've eaten. You can eat."
Then, she pulled Sun Jiatong and said, "Teacher Sun, there is a new thing called online shopping recently, do you know about it?"
Before Sun Jiatong could reply, Li Haiyan continued: "I heard about this yesterday. It said that you can open a store and make money with just a computer. You don't have to buy goods or pay rent. The money you make is yours. I don't think this is a capitalless business.
? I just learned from that teacher all morning today and asked me to open a store step by step. You said that as teachers, we have a lot of free time. We open an online shopping store. Anyway, we don’t have to invest any capital. We can make money to support our family.
.”
Zhu Hanwen asked: "You don't have to buy goods, you don't have to pay rent, and it's your own money. This is a great thing."
Li Haiyan hurriedly said: "Isn't that right, Teacher Sun? The company is called eBay, and it is a large company in the beautiful country. I asked, it is said that the company has more than 200 billion, more than 200 billion, what is the concept? This
It's absolutely reliable. Now that you open a store in the past, you can also enjoy various preferential benefits. The benefits are too numerous to count. Teacher Sun, you should hurry up and open one. This kind of good thing of making money for free, after passing this village, it is not possible.
This store no longer exists.”
When Li Haiyan first heard what she said, Lu Yiming thought she was talking about Taobao. Because only Taobao is free to open a store, and Jack Ma also followed Lu Yiming's advice to him and built Alibaba into a supply chain, specifically looking for it all over the world.
Supply of goods to individual sellers on Taobao.
As a result, Li Haiyan was actually talking about Yi Bei, which made Lu Yiming feel a little shocked.
eBay actually also offers free store opening?
Could it be that it can't stand it anymore?
Thinking of this, Lu Yiming almost laughed out loud.
eBay is indeed awesome now. After all, it has a scale of hundreds of billions. This is no joke. If you want to compare with eBay in burning money, Taobao will definitely not be able to compare.
However, as the saying goes, "Those who learn from me will live, and those who are like me will die." Although it is free to open a store on Taobao, in fact everything else costs money, such as traffic promotion, selling store templates, Alibaba supplies... plus
What is being burned is the investors' money. With this back and forth, in and out, Alibaba has lost money.
If eBay is not aware of this and simply spends money to change the market, even if it can compete with Taobao in the end, its vitality will be greatly damaged.
You know, Lu Yiming and Luming Mall are there. Will Yibei, who is dying, be able to cope with it?
Sun Jiatong smiled and said to Li Haiyan: "I didn't expect Teacher Li to be so fashionable and learn how to open an online store. Well, today I also opened a Taobao store with the help of my niece and your teacher Zhu's students. I
The store sells women's clothing, what does your store sell?"
When Li Haiyan heard that Sun Jiatong had opened a store on Taobao, she was slightly startled at first, and then said with a look of disgust: "I, my store sells extracurricular tutoring books, and they are all carefully selected by me. How can you open a store on Taobao?"
What? Let me tell you, eBay is a major international platform and more reliable. Isn’t it said that eBay is competing with Taobao now? If eBay takes action, Taobao will definitely be doomed.”
"Ah this..."
After all, Lu Yiming was sitting here, but Sun Jiatong was still so shocked by Li Haiyan's words that he didn't know what to say.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Lu Yiming actually smiled and said: "Teacher Sun, I think Teacher Li said a lot. Anyway, it's just a matter of opening one store, or two stores. Doesn't it cost money to open an eBay store? Isn't it cheap?
Why don’t you take advantage of it?”
Li Haiyan said: "That's right, it doesn't matter. Just move the store to eBay. As long as you submit the application, someone will help you solve all the troubles. I'll write you a number and you can call me then."
Just go and ask and you will know.”
Then, she looked at Lu Yiming and said approvingly: "This young man is really discerning and sensible. He will definitely be able to do big things in the future. Teacher Sun, is this your relative's child? Oh, by the way, you registered an eBay account
Please remember to fill in my nickname in the recommender column. My nickname is..."
Sun Jiatong felt a little confused and asked: "Why do I have to fill in your nickname when I register?"
Li Haiyan was not pretentious and said directly: "Because after writing it, I recommended you to register and open a store, and I also have some small benefits. You can also do the same after successfully registering, recommend others to open a store, and treat you as a recommender.
You can also get rewards.”
"Oh, okay."
Li Haiyan picked up the pen on the table and wrote down her ID, and then said, "Remember to fill it in. Okay, I'll go back and wash the dishes first."
After Li Haiyan left, Sun Jiatong felt that Monk Zhanger was even more confused and asked Lu Yiming, "Why did you let me open a store on eBay?"
Lin Yuzhen also said: "I remember eBay is Taobao's competitor, right? You actually asked your aunt to open a store on eBay? Isn't this tying up the enemy?"
Lu Yi understood her and said: "What are you talking about? I don't like to hear what you say. I am a person with a pattern, understand? I will never do that kind of either-or thing. But I remember eBay opening a store
It used to cost money, but now it's free, and it also has a recommender system. It seems like it's going to be a big game. Let's take a look at what's going on."
"Okay, let me call you and ask?"
"Well, let's ask."
Sun Jiatong dialed the phone number left by Li Haiyan, then verified his real identity and Taobao ID. After a few words, he ended the conversation, saying that he wanted to add QQ operations.
After adding QQ according to the process, and after tinkering for almost half an hour, eBay said that it had helped Sun Jiatong open the store and also sent him a store address.
Sun Jiatong clicked on it and was stunned. He said, "Hey, isn't this my Taobao store? Did they send it by mistake?"
Lu Yiming took a closer look and found that it was indeed exactly the same as the webpage he designed just now, but the URL was eBay's URL.
He immediately understood that eBay was plagiarizing directly. It didn't even modify the layout and just copied and pasted it?
Are they preparing to use magic to defeat magic?
"Let me take a look."
Lu Yiming sat in front of the computer, first opened Sun Jiatong's Taobao store and looked at it, and then opened Sun Jiatong's eBay store and looked at it. Except for the different URL, there was no difference at all.
He went into other eBay stores and compared them with Taobao, and found that many stores were exactly the same.
Not only that, he also saw that eBay’s store opening benefits stated that people from Taobao would be recruited to open a store and they would be paid directly based on their head. One would be given 200 yuan, and the more sellers brought in, the greater the reward would be.
rich.
"No wonder this Teacher Li is so enthusiastic and comes over to ask you to open a shop. It turns out she can get cash directly."
Lu Yiming smiled, then took out his mobile phone and called Jack Manali to tell him Yibei's operation.
When Jack Ma heard this, he was so angry that his teeth itched, and he said in a deep voice: "They are really shameless. Even if they plagiarize, they still want to draw money from the bottom of the pot?"
If it were an ordinary user that Yibai attracted, Majek wouldn't be so nervous, but it was a seller who was attracted, so this was different.
After all, most users choose Taobao Mall because there are many sellers here and they can provide more types of goods, so they can counterattack eBay.
If there are no sellers, will buyers still choose Taobao Mall?
Although in name, you can either open a store on Taobao or eBay, but eBay directly throws in benefits and pays you 100 yuan upfront without caring about anything. This operation is still too rich. In addition, after opening a store
If eBay launches promotion and starts with volume, will sellers give up on Taobao and focus on eBay?
As long as you spend enough time and enough money, such a transformation is certain.
The most important thing is that there is never a free lunch in this world. eBay can use this method to kill Taobao first, and then recover the money from sellers or buyers.
Jack Ma asked tentatively: "Mr. Lu, how about we also give you a head fee?"
Now that Taobao is developing well, and there are many people queuing up to bring money to burn on Taobao, Jack Ma now has a lot of confidence to speak, and he actually wants to start a price war with eBay.
Lu Yiming comforted and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely follow up on eBay's approach, but the impact is actually not big. After all, we don't charge handling fees, because Alipay is our own, and handling fees are waived by signing a contract with the bank.
eBay does this no matter what
No. So, despite the rapid increase in the number of their sellers now, when sellers get the benefits promised by eBay and want to continue doing business, they will still choose to come back to Taobao. Unless eBay can make them better than Taobao.
It’s more profitable, but that’s impossible.”
Although some people invested in Alibaba, allowing Taobao to have money to burn, in the face of eBay's hundreds of billions of dollars, it still seems a little lacking in confidence to burn this money.
However, both of them cost less. In terms of experience, the two websites are quite different.
First of all, Taobao's servers are in China, and there are no obstacles to domestic access. However, eBay's servers are abroad, and data access must go through domestic transfer stations and switches. In this environment, the performance of the equipment is generally at an "adequate" level.
This perception is quite obvious - for example, if it is also a flash sale on the hour, Taobao's flash sale may have successfully jumped to the payment interface, and eBay may not have even loaded the background image.
For any Internet company, experience and price are crucial. Unless your price is so low that people will ignore the experience and pinch their noses to save money.
And if the price is not so high that people can ignore the difference in experience, many people would rather choose Taobao, which is a few cents more expensive, than go to eBay, which crashes and freezes at every turn.
Subsequently, Taobao also launched activities to attract people to open stores and pay them, and on the other hand, it also directly sued eBay for plagiarism, not only robbing people, but also tarnishing eBay's reputation.
Under Lu Yiming's manipulation, Taobao's registered members soon exceeded the 3 million mark, a year-on-year increase of more than 10 times, and the single-day transaction volume rose to 9 million yuan. On the other hand, eBay's share
It continued to shrink and fell into a semi-dead state.
As for eBay, just as Lu Yiming expected, many stores first went to eBay to open stores and got the benefits, and then turned around and continued doing business on the Taobao platform, which made Meg Whitman angry to death.
