MTL - Rebirth Starts at 7 Million-Chapter 257 Baidu takeaway entry

Express delivery is impossible to pick up and deliver, but takeaway is possible.

But now Baidu has just established Baidu Nuomi, and has not officially set foot in the takeaway industry, so in a short period of time, it is still very difficult for the fruits of Happy Farm to reach the level of pick-up and delivery.

Luo Fan could only suppress this idea temporarily.

In the following month, Cao Shuai traveled all over the country and acquired a total of 4 small food delivery companies. These 4 companies are located in different provinces.

Later, Luo Fan asked Cao Shuai to change the names of these four small food delivery companies to the same glutinous rice delivery as the one in Guangdong.

After the name change, Luo Fan called Mr. Li from Baidu.

After learning about Luo Fan's actions, Mr. Li hesitated for a moment and said, "Mr. Luo, our Baidu Taxi is developing smoothly, and we have solved some policy issues.

Next, we want to put the core on Baidu Taxi, and put the takeaway later. "

Hearing this, Luo Fan frowned and said, "Mr. Li, takeaways are not allowed. Meituan and Are You Hungry entered at the beginning of the year, and now it's almost June, we are half a year behind them, even if you have a glutinous rice takeaway? ahead of schedule, we and I are still one step behind.

It will take at least half a year for your Baidu to take a taxi. If it is late in the first half of the year, Meituan and Hungry have already taken over the national market, and we will be too late to enter the market at this time. "

"How fast are they moving?"

"Absolutely, Penguin is behind Meituan, and Penguin supports Meituan to further expand the user base of wx with Meituan, while Ali is behind Meituan and they want to use Meituan to promote Alipay.

These two are their core products, just like Baidu's search engine. You should know better than me how much Internet giants will invest in their core products, Mr. Li? "

After listening to Luo Fan's words, President Li was silent.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Mr. Luo, you are right, but the chat software and payment are also what you Xingyuan are doing, right?"

"Yes, I don't deny it, but Mr. Li's core of Xingyuan is not chat software and payment. Even if Penguin's wx surpasses our Xingchao, with Xingchao's current functions, it is enough to keep the basics.

As for payment, our Xingyuan ecological chain has been initially built. Even if payment is not possible, at least we can eat and drink in our own ecological chain.

But the situation of Mr. Li and your Baidu is even more difficult than ours. Your transformation and upgrading on the search engine is not over yet, and part of the market is occupied by other similar websites.

If you want to enter the O2O industry, there is no way. We Xingyuan want to make payment bigger, and you also want to enter the O2O industry, so everyone helps each other.

Combining the two of us is the best choice, Mr. Li, I have no reason to pit you. "

Luo Fan's words made Mr. Li fall into silence again. After more than ten seconds, Mr. Li said: "Baidu can't give up the taxi industry. This time, we have invested a lot in opening up the joints."

"Mr. Li, you misunderstood, I didn't want Baidu to withdraw from the taxi industry, I think taxi and takeout can be done together, both can rely on Baidu Maps, it is a relationship of mutual support, there is no need to give up one.

Conversely, if something goes wrong with one, the other can also help. "

"Is Mr. Luo also willing to cooperate with us on Baidu Taxi?" Mr. Li asked.

"Of course I do. Taxi-hailing can also cooperate like take-out, but the premise is that the current focus is on take-out."

"I understand what Mr. Luo means. We need to hold a meeting to discuss it. We will inform you when there is a result."

Luo Fan understands this. Baidu is not Mr. Li's word, and it is impossible for him to make his own decisions.

Two days later, Mr. Li replied, and Baidu wished to shift its focus to takeaway.

On the other hand, during the more than one month fermentation of Shuidichou, more and more people have been helped by Shuidichou.

Coupled with the fact that the official media had helped Shuidichou platform before, the reputation of Shuidichoi was getting better and better, which made Luo Fan feel a lot more at ease.

In fact, for Luo Fan, the water drop project is of great significance. He feels that he has the opportunity to change his life. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a miracle.

In order to repay this miracle, Luo Fan felt that he should do something, and the water drop chip was the way Luo Fan chose to repay.

There is a Buddhist saying: saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.

What is a greater merit than saving people's lives?

Moreover, the project of Shuidichou also has extraordinary significance for Xingyuan, at least it is more meaningful than making money directly.

Next, what Xingyuan has to do is to wait for the auxiliary team of Shuidichou to fully pull up, and then make every effort to drain the project, so that this project can be widely spread across the country, and it is best to go abroad.

"Boss, President Cao is back." Su Qing's words interrupted Luo Fan's thoughts.

"Finally back? Let him come to my office."

Su Qing nodded.

A few minutes later, Cao Shuai came to Luo Fan's office.

"Brother, tell me about the food delivery platforms in other provinces!" Luo Fan said straight to the point.

"Actually, there's not much to say. You said before that group buying is actually similar to take-out. Many of the companies doing take-out this time were transformed from group buying companies.

When I acquired in the past, most of the companies were pretending to be with me, and many people were still testing our Xingyuan's attitude towards the food delivery industry. "

"Then what's their attitude towards Meituan and Are You Hungry?" Luo Fan asked.

"I feel like they're not thinking this far, most companies are just trying to grab the market as soon as possible."

"That's it! Brother, how did you acquire these 4 food delivery platforms?"

"These four platforms have a common feature, that is, they have no money at hand, they are poor, and if it is not purchased by me, it is estimated that they will not be able to survive for long."

"So it is."

"Boss, how is the development of Shuidichou recently?"

"It's okay. After the official platform gave us the platform, the credibility of Shuidicho was basically guaranteed. Now the company is preparing an offline service team for Shuidicho. Before this team is complete, the matter of Shuidicho will be like this."

"Then boss, are we going to enter the food delivery industry with Baidu in the next stage?"

"Yeah! Recently, the food delivery market has become hot. Although we are not afraid of any capital when we are united with Baidu, we should not take it lightly."

"What did President Li of Baidu say?" Cao Shuai asked.

"I spoke to him on the phone, and he is ready to enter." Luo Fan replied.

"Is it finally time to start?"
