My Age of Investment

"This idea is okay, I support it!"

Xia Jingxing looked at Liu Ruoxi with admiration. Xige's success was by no means a fluke. From moving offline stores to online, from a vertical e-commerce platform to a comprehensive e-commerce platform, insisting on self-built logistics...

From all of these, it can be seen that Xi Ge is by no means a person who stands still and sets limits on himself.

It is easy to say that you are not satisfied with the status quo and can step out of your comfort zone, but in fact, few people can really do it.

"So, Mr. Xia, are you supporting me?"

Liu Ruoxi smiled innocently, "Many old colleagues who work with me are not very supportive of Jingxi's self-built logistics. They think this model is too heavy, and all the funds are spent on logistics, which may affect the e-commerce business. The speed of expansion is not worth the loss."

Xia Jingxing smiled, "It's still the same sentence, service quality! I would rather only have 10% quality expansion than disorderly 100% expansion.

Since we insist on putting service quality first, we should continue to practice it well, and don't change it overnight and lose our own characteristics. "

Liu Ruoxi nodded, "Mr. Xia, you are right, I think the same way, if the foundation is not solid, no matter how tall the building is, it will be a dangerous building, which cannot withstand the wind and rain.

Jingxi is rushing to build a large-scale nationwide e-commerce platform. The brand is our foundation. We don't want to make quick money. After we really lay a solid foundation, we can make big money. "

Xia Jingxing nodded slightly, he could tell that Xi Ge's words were not fake or justified, but sincere words.

Because when he was running Jingxi Multimedia in Zhongguancun, Xige figured out a way to do business, insisting on genuine products, always cheaper prices than his peers, and paying attention to after-sales service...

These experiences were later used by Xi Ge in the operation of Jingxi Mall, and it was a great success!

"Self-built logistics is an asset-heavy operation model. What do you plan to do in the early stage?"

Liu Ruoxi replied: "I plan to roll out distribution outlets in the capital first, and wait for the opportunity while verifying and exploring the operation model."

"What opportunity are you waiting for?" Xia Jingxing asked.

Liu Ruoxi smiled, "It is natural to wait for the development of Jingxi Mall to reach a higher level and obtain more operating funds.

After all,

We only have 10 million US dollars now, which sounds like a lot, but we have to take care of the e-commerce business and invest in the logistics business. Once we operate at a high speed, the money will not last long.

My idea is to let the e-commerce business drive the development of the logistics business. "

Xia Jingxing was silent, Liu Ruoxi had run a company before, and his control over spending money, making money, and even controlling cash flow surpassed ordinary entrepreneurs.

This can be seen from the steady progress of the other party in the logistics business.

However, Liu Ruoxi still underestimated the cash burn of the logistics business. It was very difficult for Jingxi Mall to drive the development of Jingxi Logistics.

However, Xia Jingxing didn't plan to say too much about it for the time being, after all, Jingxi Logistics hadn't officially started operation yet, and it was still under planning.

"The service quality of the logistics business depends on the coverage of the outlets, and is even directly linked to the salary of the courier."

Xia Jingxing said indifferently, "These high operating costs need more business orders to cover."

Liu Ruoxi lowered his head and pondered, and after a while he raised his head and replied: "That's right, the construction of logistics outlets not only needs a lot of money, but also takes time, and there must be no money in the early stage.

As for the salary, Jingxi’s orders are mainly electronic products at present, and the unit price is relatively high. It is indeed necessary to put forward higher requirements for the courier. Correspondingly, the salary we give should be higher than other colleagues. "

Xia Jingxing said with a smile: "Yes! Fuxing Industry Group has set up an e-commerce platform called Fuxing Mall, and I plan to hand over the orders from Fuxing Mall to Jingxi Logistics for delivery.

With more orders, Jingxi Logistics can operate with twice the result with half the effort, and can reduce losses in the early stage. "

Liu Ruoxi's eyes were fixed: "Fuxing Mall, is the self-operated e-commerce brand under Fuxing Industrial Group?"

"Yes, this e-commerce platform only sells products under the Fuxing Industrial Group, including various home appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, pots and pans, and mobile phones."

Xia Jingxing knew what Liu Ruoxi was worried about, and explained with a smile: "In the future, there may be more product categories, but we will never break through the word "self-operated". Don't worry, we will not open up third-party sellers, nor will we Comprehensive e-commerce.

At present and in the future, Fuxing Mall, just like the previous Jingxi Mall, only conducts vertical e-commerce, which is equivalent to a network direct sales channel of Fuxing Industrial Group. This is also to avoid being stuck by dealers. "

Liu Ruoxi understood instantly, and then smiled awkwardly, feeling that he was overthinking, if Xia Jingxing really wanted to be a comprehensive e-commerce company, why bother to invest in this small company like Jingxi?

"President Xia, I didn't mean that, I just asked."

Liu Ruoxi said quickly, "If Fuxing Mall is willing to deliver the order to Jingxi, we welcome it ten thousand times and express our sincere thanks!"

Xia Jingxing waved his hand, "You don't need to say thank you. This kind of cooperation is beneficial to both of us. Fuxing Mall can focus on selling products without any worries. Jingxi can get more orders and build a complete logistics network faster."

Speaking of this, Xia Jingxing said with emotion, "There are endless businesses in the world, and I am not a glutton like the outside world said. Fuxing Industry has always been a new type of high-end manufacturing industrial group focusing on hardware manufacturing."

Liu Ruoxi smiled, "Mr. Xia, it's normal for someone to splash dirty water on you because of jealousy or competition, so don't worry about it!

Anyway, my old Liu, I think you are very loyal. It is our luck that Jingxi can find investors like you. "

"Really?" Xia Jingxing looked at Liu Ruoxi with a smile.

Liu Qiangxi immediately became anxious, and said with a more emphatic tone: "Of course it is true. I, Liu Qiangxi, have always said something, and I will not deliberately flatter anyone."

"Haha, okay, thank you Old Liu for your comfort."

Xia Jingxing smiled and looked at Liu Ruoxi, who had some genuine temperament, and asked again, "I heard that you drink well, old Liu?"

"Okay!"

Liu Qiangxi glanced at Xia Jingxing up and down, but didn't say "you'll be fine if you drink up".

"It's time for dinner soon, let's go and have a drink or two together."

Xia Jingxing invited, Liu Ruoxi naturally readily accepted.

The two found a random restaurant nearby, sat in the private room, ate and drank.

Seeing Liu Qiangxi, whose expression didn't change at all after drinking several big glasses of white wine, Xia Jingxing knew that he was careless, this is the one who can drink with the delivery guy.

Looking at the ruddy and slightly drunk Xia Jingxing, Liu Ruoxi snickered in his heart. Their hometown is a famous wine city. Yanghe and Shuanggou liquor brands both come from here. two".

He originally thought that Xia Jingxing was from Sichuan and Shu, so drinking should be okay, but that's the end?

"Come on, Mr. Xia, I'll fill you up!"

As soon as Xia Jingxing's glass was empty, Liu Ruoxi immediately picked up the Moutai on the table and began to pour the wine.

Just after pouring half a glass, he found that the wine bottle was empty. Liu Ruoxi immediately greeted him loudly: "Waiter, bring two more bottles of wine."

Xia Jingxing suddenly panicked, "One bottle is enough!"

"How can it be done? Mr. Xia and I hit it off right away. Today is our first time drinking alcohol. We must drink two to three catties no matter what!"

Xia Jingxing had a big head, he just wanted to see if Liu Qiangxi could drink as much as the rumors said, but ended up in a cocoon.

He is relatively drinkable, he can drink a catty of liquor, but in front of Liu Ruoxi, he is like a younger brother.

"Why don't you stop? Let's drink less today and make up for it next time. I will have a remote video conference with the United States when I get home later."

Hearing what Xia Jingxing said, Liu Ruoxi let it go.

When he walked out of the restaurant, Xia Jingxing's whole body walked in a vain way, and Liu Ruoxi helped him to reluctantly go out the door.

Liu Qiangxi sent Xia Jingxing to the car, and then shook his hand at Xia Jingxing: "Mr. Xia, go back slowly, we didn't drink enough this time, we must make up for it next time."

Xia Jingxing smiled wryly, feeling dizzy in the head, and his stomach was overwhelmed. Just now Liu Ruoxi persuaded him too much, and he drank too eagerly.

He struggled to get up, pretending that nothing happened, and said to Liu Ruoxi outside the car window: "Okay, okay, make it up next time, and bring a friend to you by the way."

Liu Qiangxi heard the meaning behind Xia Jingxing's words, didn't he just want to find foreign aid? He didn't take it seriously, and had full confidence in his own strength.

Xia Jingxing made up his mind, and when he turned around, he brought his top horse, Zhou Hongyi, to fight wine with Liu Ruoxi. He was also a wine fairy. It takes ten people to get drunk, and even three or five people can't get this wine master down.

Xia Jingxing was very confident in the red-clothed cannon, and planned to bring it with him next time and bombard it vigorously to get the place back.
