Volume 2: Storm Rising 2015 Chapter 365: Bottleneck reached?
Zhou Dongsheng put the matter about e-sports behind him for the time being. It was a rare opportunity to come to the Magic City, so naturally there were still many things to do.
Especially for your own investment projects, at the very least, you still need to maintain your personal connections. If you want to be a competent hands-off manager, it is obviously not enough to just do nothing.
Since its launch, the Pinxixi platform has been developing in full swing, with an extremely exaggerated explosion speed. It has perfectly taken over the traffic generated by the promotion of good products. Whether it is the number of registered users or daily orders, the growth rate can be said to be rapid.
If the e-commerce project Tuihaohuo is compared to a thousand-mile horse, then the performance of the Pinxixi platform since its launch is like a Pegasus with a pair of wings, and its unrestrained development speed is incomparable.
However, although the initial growth rate was very encouraging, it was precisely because the explosion was too fast that the basic traffic base accumulated by the promotion of good products was exhausted, and the user growth rate of the Pinxixi platform slowed down, as if it had encountered a bottleneck period.
The emergence of this problem has attracted Huang Zheng's high attention. Although the impact on the platform operation is minimal in the short term, Huang Zheng, who has high hopes for Pinxixi, has to prepare for a rainy day.
Therefore , in response to this problem, Xunmeng Technology has recently held brainstorming meetings every day and every three days to pool ideas and find the key to breaking the deadlock.
In the eyes of most people, Huang Zheng is making a fuss over nothing. After all, the slowdown in the growth of Pinxixi platform users...
This is completely understandable. After all, data fluctuates. There is an explosive period and a smooth accumulation period. How can it be possible to be in a blowout stage all the time?
What's more, the Pinxixi platform has only been online for a short time, but the number of users has already exceeded the one million mark, and has successfully exceeded 5 million users in the past two days.
The speed of this explosion far exceeded the previous promotion of good products. Even Sun Tongyu, an e-commerce veteran who once headed Taobao and is now one of the angel investors of the Pinxixi platform, expressed his amazement at this result.
Compared with Taobao, which emerged from the wild era of the domestic Internet, it is really difficult and not easy to achieve such an equal achievement.
However, the Pinxixi platform seems to have done it effortlessly!
Although compared with Taobao, it has a bit of the meaning of "Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong", but as e-commerce projects, Taobao in the wild era and the current Pinxixi platform are both brave warriors who are determined to slay dragons.
The difference is that Taobao has now become the "evil dragon".
It was precisely because of his participation in the birth of this evil dragon that Sun Tongyu gained an unprecedented profound understanding of the potential of the Pinxixi platform, and his long-lost enthusiasm was heated up again.
Sun Tongyu once thought that being in charge of Taobao might be the pinnacle of his life. Although he was still young, it was completely nonsense to want to achieve a career that exceeded this achievement.
But... now it seems that there is such an opportunity. At least the Pinxixi platform has allowed him to see the unlimited potential to realize this possibility!
With this in mind, Sun Tongyu became more concerned about this project and actively used his rich e-commerce experience to help Huang Zheng solve problems.
However, for Huang Zheng, the protection provided by the "four-in-one" merely solves the worries of the Pinxixi platform.
If he wants to realize his ambitions, he must allow the Pinxixi platform to develop rapidly under the eyes of the evil dragon, and it would be best if it grows into a behemoth before being surrounded and blocked!
Only in this way can you make yourself invincible, otherwise... Over the years, there have been countless e-commerce platforms, but they are just like a shooting star across the sky, leaving behind a brilliant but short-lived light.
This was the case with Huang Zheng’s first two e-commerce projects.
Therefore, Huang Zheng will naturally not be satisfied with the little achievement he has made. After all, the road of entrepreneurship is like sailing against the current, if you don’t move forward, you will fall behind!
Huang Zheng devoted himself to his work and had no distractions. Even if Zhou Dongsheng wanted to see him, he could only go to the Xunmeng Technology Company where he had not seen him for a long time.
Zhou Dongsheng, accompanied by his assistant Li Jiana, walked leisurely into Xunmeng Technology Company. Compared with the first visit, the receptionist now was naturally familiar with this shareholder of the company.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou. Mr. Huang is in a meeting right now. Do you need me to inform you?" The girl at the front desk said in a delicate voice. Her eyes lit up when she saw Zhou Dongsheng, the young and promising shareholder.
However, when he saw Li Jiana standing beside him, he couldn't help feeling discouraged.
"Then please inform him for me. I'll go to his office and wait for him." Zhou Dongsheng said with ease. After all, it was not his first time here.
The girl at the front desk came to the door of the conference room and knocked. After getting Huang Zheng's permission, she went in and conveyed the news of Zhou Dongsheng's visit.
Huang Zheng couldn't help but slap his head and said, "After we finish this matter, we will drive here first. Abu will come with me."
After saying that, he went out . Abu is the nickname of Huang Zheng's junior sister Gu Pinpin in the company.
Gu Pinpin stood up and followed closely behind him. When she heard that it was Zhou Dongsheng who came, a rare smile appeared on her face.
Zhou Dongsheng's interpretation of the concept of social e-commerce and his strategy of "surrounding the cities from the countryside" left a deep impression on Gu Pinpin.
Gu Pinpin couldn't help but feel a little excited. She wondered if Zhou Dongsheng would have any unique insights into the recent difficulties that Pinxixi had encountered.
The senior and junior brothers arrived at the office one after the other. Zhou Dongsheng took out the collection of tea from Huang Zheng's office and started brewing it himself.
"My goodness, you are born in the year of the dog, you have a very sharp nose. As soon as I heard you coming, I knew that the tea leaves could not be hidden..." Huang Zheng scolded with a smile.
Gu Pinpin greeted with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, long time no see."
"There's nothing I can do. Mr. Huang is a very busy man now. It's not easy to invite you to dinner. I can only come to your house to ask for some tea." Zhou Dongsheng said innocently.
Then he looked at Gu Pinpin and said exaggeratedly: "Sister Gu, you have become more and more beautiful after not seeing you for a while. It seems that this career is not only a stimulant for men, but also a youthful elixir for women~"
Gu Pinpin rolled her eyes at Zhou Dongsheng in annoyance, but as a woman dresses up to please herself, the smile on her face became visibly more intense.
"You're insulting me, aren't you? I work so hard just to work for you, a capitalist. It's more comfortable to be an investor. No wonder Mr. Duan chose to change his career." Huang Zheng said unhappily.
Zhou Dongsheng laughed, "Look at what you said, brother. Aren't we like-minded people who think alike? The development of the Pinxixi platform since its launch is enough to prove that we have indeed chosen the right path..."
Listening to Zhou Dongsheng's laughing words, Huang Zheng's heart was moved, and he couldn't help but pretend to sigh, "It's not that easy. Pinxixi has encountered a big problem recently, which has troubled me for a long time..."
Zhou Dongsheng scratched his head and wondered in his heart, could there still be problems with the development of the Pinxixi platform?
Shouldn't it be smooth sailing and directly become the e-commerce overlord in the sinking market?
