Born Again: A Journey of Love Rediscovered Novel Chapter 387

The next morning, the first day of Labor Day.

Daisy Ding was successfully admitted to the graduate school of Linda University. For this reason, Master Cao was very angry and invited a total of eight people from two dormitories to have a big meal. After coming back in the evening, he was still studying excitedly. Regarding the surrounding attractions, I plan to take Daisy Ding on a trip.

Before leaving, he secretly went to the vending shop outside the school and bought a pack of elves, but John Qin happened to catch him.

"Play as a balloon?"

"We are all gentlemen, don't pretend not to understand. Do you want one?"

John Qin glanced at him, silently took one and put it in his wallet. When he left, he still felt like his head was burning, and he didn't know what he remembered.

John Qin kept emphasizing that keeping elves in your wallet would help you keep money.

But what I was thinking was, keep one as a spare, as I am getting younger and hot-blooded.

Chaozi has become more and more rounded recently. His chin was originally a bit pointed, but it has become much more beautiful after gaining weight. Of course, the other chin is also very beautiful.

Most of his three-day vacation was spent lying in bed reading novels. Sometimes he would look at the big tree outside the window and sigh. Two years had passed and it seemed that he had gained nothing, but he had gained so much weight. Really.

This piece of pork belly and that piece of big elbow are full of care from the roommates.

"I think college students are no different from pigs in other aspects except how to study."

John Qin was stunned for a moment: "Are you fucking polite? Are you criticizing Sang and Huai?"

Chaozi sat up from the bed and looked back at John Qin: "Brother John, I didn't scold you."

"You said college students are just like pigs except for studying, but I don't fucking study."
Zachary Ren and Wang Linlin are in a passionate relationship. They go out early in the morning and come home late every day. They are very much like the old Master Cao, who stayed on the phone until late at night every night.

Pan Xiu was already a very shallow shadow to him, so shallow that he could hardly leave any trace.

However, I heard that Pan Xiu started chatting with Lao Ren inexplicably during this period. The topic didn't have any important points, but she insisted on chatting a few words every day. She didn't know what she wanted to do.

During these three days, John Qin spent most of his time at 208, staring at the combination punches of Zhihu and Pintuan.

The content team engages in quality selection in the forum and recruits a large number of bloggers to provide first-person reviews of selected restaurants, hotels, services and other content. To put it bluntly, it is a documentary-style soft article that will often be seen in the future.

As soon as the short article here on Zhihu went online, corresponding coupons would appear on the online channels for group buying, and college students became obsessed with it. In this two-pronged approach, the number of group buying users increased sharply.

The most awesome ones are the "Friends Group", who wear badges and clothes and spontaneously start handing out flyers for the group.

If you ask them why, they will say that I have seen Boss John’s news, and it was Zhihu that helped us raise Zhihu.

Students know students best. With their help, the local promotion team who joined the group felt that they were a bit short-changed in receiving wages, so they worked harder on grappling and fighting.

However, no matter how effective the promotion is, it is not as valuable as real money. Therefore, group shopping took advantage of the trend and launched a 20% discount on the entire Linfu Supermarket, Helilao Hotpot for one get one free, Burger King and Xitian also launched a Crazy Thursday selected half-price set meal .

With just three events, the entire university city market was heated up.

During this period, they once again launched free coupons, cooperated with Xihanheqing in key marketing, and gradually established an independent living circle, connecting basic necessities, food, housing and transportation into a closed loop.

To be honest, the circle of college students is only that small. It does not extend beyond the urban area and spends 80% of the time on campus.

To build this market, you only need to grasp the surrounding business districts. In this way, you don't have to compete head-on with those over-the-top group buying websites, you don't need to invest too much money, and the loss of users is also the lowest.

"It's strange. We obviously took the university towns of the four major first-tier cities, which is equivalent to inserting a big nail into the opponent's position. Why does no one care about us?"

In the school cafeteria, Dong Wong showed a puzzled expression while eating noodles.

He has been watching the news during this time and knows that many group buying companies are fighting for their lives and do not dare to waste a minute. Instead, they are working in groups and living happily. It seems that they are not contestants, but more like Taiwanese. Go to the audience.

John Qin glanced at him: "The rule of Internet business is that the winner takes all. Only when the big rivals are finished, they will liquidate the smaller rivals and clean up the battlefield."

"Then we can just keep doing this?"

"You can't survive for too long, but if you can survive, you should continue to survive."

Dong Wong ate his noodles and said: "Boss, Lashou.com actually has a huge advantage now."

John Qin smiled slightly: "This is not something we should consider, because there are still bigger capitals watching. Where is this? No one will allow LaShou.com to dominate."

Sure enough, just as Boss John expected, they received a message from Tina Tan just after finishing their meal.

Suixin Tuan received US$5 million in financing from an investment institution in Shanghai.

A few days ago, Ye Ziqing went back to Linchuan to seek funding but encountered a wall. He was worried about losing his hair every day. However, as soon as he returned to Shanghai, he found that an investment institution had offered him an olive branch. In the blink of an eye, things were changing.

However, in John Qin's eyes, this was a signal for the start of the third round, and it also showed that the small capital that had been keeping an eye on the track was starting to take action.

These behind-the-scenes promoters may not necessarily value Suixin Tuan’s ability, but they all have a common idea at the moment, that is, since the market is already so hot, I will add more fuel and continue to speculate.

Because the group buying industry involves many industrial chains, they can only reap more benefits by allowing the influence of this market to expand infinitely.

After a simple lunch, on the way back to the entrepreneurial base, John Qin felt that the weather was nice, so he took Dong Wong for a walk around the playground, feeling the bright sunshine, and still chatting about it.

"Five million US dollars, more than 30 million, just give it to them to burn?" Dong Wong found this figure unimaginable.

John Qin stretched out: "Five million is not much, and this amount is very interesting."

"Where's the fun?"

"This money can allow Suixin Tuan to quickly win back a victory, but it cannot easily surpass LaShou. It can only maintain a relationship of continued competition. The capitalists are really bad, but I like it very much."

"Then isn't this round a waste of time? What will happen in the end?"

John Qin shook his head: "The purpose of accelerating competition after capital intervention is to heat up the market. Then the seed players will be selected. By the end of this round, someone will be eliminated. By then, the group buying plate will be bigger again, and the remaining people will be eliminated." The more you get, the crazier it will be."

Although the weather was in May, Dong Wong felt cold all over his body. He felt that the pores all over his body could not stop shrinking and his hairs stood on end.

When he was a student, he never thought about it so much. All he thought about every day was what to eat and drink. When he suddenly saw a new thing on the market and became popular, he would only sigh that our country has made progress again.

But it wasn't until he came to the front line and watched the birth of a new thing that he realized how cruel a fight this so-called new thing had gone through before it came to the fore.

There is no such forward-thinking person as the boss. With only their youth and passion, they estimate that no matter how much money they have, they will not even have a bone left if they get into it.

"So, the first three rounds of fighting were meaningless?"

"It is definitely meaningless for group buying companies in a competitive relationship, but the power gathered in the first three rounds will definitely feed back positively to the final winner. The market is mine, the consumption habits are mine, and the number of users is mine. This is truly winner-take-all."

Dong Wong suddenly realized: "So we are like marginalized people, always wandering on the periphery, refusing to waste time in the early stage?"

John Qin was silent for a moment: "That's what it means, but it's not entirely true, because when the plate is too big before we start, we won't have the appetite to eat, so I have been training the team in second- and third-tier cities to ensure that the stomach capacity is large enough , and the consumption away from the center of the battlefield is the least."

"The way of war in group buying is to burn money, but burning money is not the final victory condition. Even if you are poor, there are also ways to fight for the poor."

At this moment, the two of them found a football parked in front of them. Behind the football stood a boy wearing a football uniform, looking at them as if they were crazy.

Seeing that John Qin and Dong Wong noticed him, the man picked up the ball and turned around to leave.

"Hey, I just heard two crazy people chatting. They cost tens of millions to open and close their mouths. They even said that they were poor. Are you forcing yourself to major in college? Are you so arrogant?"

"Who?"

"Just the two at the back."

As he was talking, all the football players turned around and saw that John Qin was raising a crooked mouth on the other side, so they said it was okay.

The amount of tens of millions is indeed a large amount, and many families may never see it in their lifetime, but it becomes very reasonable to put it on John Qin. Who allows the Linda cafeteria to broadcast news about him every day.

The boy who picked up the ball was from another school. He came to play with him during the May Day holiday. He had not been baptized by Lin Da's peerless king, so he didn't understand how normal it was.

He decided to take him to the cafeteria for a meal at noon, so that he could understand what it meant to be at the end of the road. When he saw John Qin, his words came to nothing.

Subsequently, the third round of battle between group buying websites officially started.

While Lashou.com was focusing on stabilizing the Shenzhen market, Suixin Tuan made a major decision, which was to directly join up with Manager Cai in Kyoto and use the newly raised money to open up a hole in Lashou.com's territory.

After finishing these things, Ye Ziqing specially sent John Qin a text message, saying thank you for the dinner that day and asking him to come back when he returns to Linchuan next month.

John Qinxin said that I was scared to death. It turns out that you, senior, just wanted to show off to me. I thought you would find out when you turned around that I had already captured eight university towns in your hometown.
