Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 487 Saab on the verge of bankruptcy

The number Lu Qi gave Qu Li is not precise, and there may be some differences in the end.

The reason why the revenue of Jumei platform is so high is partly brought by Honor. Apple’s IPhone sold more than 10 million units in China in 2011. Honor covers a wider price range. Selling 15-20 million units is not too much, assuming The average price is 4K, so the sales volume is between 60 billion and 80 billion, and it is possible to bring a transaction volume of 10 billion to the Jumei platform.

In history, the transaction volume of Taobao platform this year is 630 billion, accounting for about 80% of the total national online retail sales of 800 billion. Jumei raised the upper limit of domestic retail sales, and this year’s proportion may be about 30%. a piece of meat.

However, from another perspective, the capabilities of Jumei Logistics really need to be improved.

Lu Qi made adjustments, Jumei will improve the service capabilities of Jumei Logistics, give priority to serving the customers of the Jumei Juhuasuan platform, and will not actively solicit external customers...

Tongda Network was open from the beginning, and Jumei Logistics has changed from open to closed. The speed of this change and adjustment is beyond the reach of traditional enterprises.

A few days later, Shopee reported that its sales in fiscal year 2011 reached US$6 billion. Although this scale is less than one-eighth of Amazon's, the growth rate is about 50%. Although the operating costs in foreign countries are high, the profits are high. Amazon commissions 9-15% for each transaction, and can also charge various fees, such as a monthly platform fee of $39.9, and follow-up advertising fees. Tianmao’s maximum is only 5%. The commission and various charging standards are lower than those in the United States.

How to use numbers to describe the difference in e-commerce between the two countries? According to Amazon's financial report, third-party sellers account for more than 60% of sales, but commissions and FBA (logistics services) are half of self-operated income. That is to say, for every 100 yuan of goods sold by third-party sellers, an average of 33 yuan will be handed over to the platform.

How do you make such a calculation, why does Amazon look so amiable, don’t worry, there is also advertising costs, this part is about 10%, that is, you have to pay an extra 10 yuan.

Of course, it may not be appropriate for Shopee to refer to Amazon. Let’s compare it to eBay. Their revenue accounts for about 13% of the platform’s transaction volume. On the other hand, domestic platforms, calculated from Ahri’s financial report, have only about 7% of commission advertising revenue, and about 4% for Pinxixi.

So, what are the domestic sellers complaining about? Is it a "rent-collecting" platform, or the fierce competition in the "world factory" industry itself?

Jumei platform fees will definitely increase. Domestic consumers have basically accepted online shopping. Now they have to invest in the construction of e-commerce infrastructure. They cannot rely on the capital market. Any choice they make now will have to pay a price in the future.

Sufficient cash flow is the key to success, and profit is the last word.

Qu Li and Lu Qi were discussing the next step, planning to change Jumei's fiscal year to a natural year to facilitate data statistics, which required the release of two annual financial reports.

After finishing these things, Qu Li continued to enjoy life, hugging from left to right was too exhausting, this time Nazha Rouba took turns dancing for him.

Even if there are more variables like Qu Li in this world, what should have happened still happened. The Occupy Wall Street movement in the United States, a series of social changes and military battles in North Africa, the debt crisis of the five European pig countries, especially the 10-year government bond yield in Greece Soaring to 30%, that is, lending 100 yuan, the annual interest is 30 yuan.

The world situation has undergone far-reaching changes, and exchange rate changes have brought a lot of trouble to Jumei and Glory. At this time, it takes a certain amount of courage to invest in the EU. I originally thought of selling islands in Greece, so I can only postpone it at this time.

At this time, let's focus on talents. Arrange Honor Qiancheng Automobile to go to Europe to recruit people. Cash is nothing but technology in your own hands.

Discuss with Glory and Qiancheng Automobile's investment plan to recruit people and build factories in Europe.

"You're way ahead of your time, aren't you? We haven't bought a car in Europe yet."

"Then what should we do? Our cars will become more and more expensive in the future." Qu Li was speechless

Qiancheng Automobile is off to a good start now, and it will definitely not sell cars with a value of less than 100,000 yuan. However, the perception of domestic consumers is likely to be unacceptable for domestic cars to compete with BBA on the same stage. Under such circumstances, it is best to develop the international market.

Especially for hybrid vehicles, BYD DMI is better than Volkswagen Toyota. A set of electric vehicles and a set of fuel are combined, and the selling price is almost the same as that of fuel vehicles. How can this make money? It still depends on the support of international friends. Of course, the market needs of the two regions are different. BYD DMI is suitable for China, but not necessarily for foreign countries, and the technological development route may be different.

"Use the Qiancheng brand?" Grand Strategy listened to Qu Li, and no one challenged him

"if not?"

"Saab is going bankrupt."

"Sabo, I don't understand."

"Saab, which integrates people and vehicles, is safe, and flies close to the ground, is the first to bring aircraft turbocharging technology to automobiles..."

"Oh, I remembered, the Swedish car company that was acquired by GM."

"Now it has been acquired by Spyker, but it has suffered serious losses." He doesn't know more

Qu Li didn't chat with Qiancheng Automobile, but went back to investigate Saab, and quickly figured out the current situation. He had the opportunity to acquire this company in 2009, but he didn't think it was necessary. Looking at the situation now, it is still not necessary.

Saab car production relies heavily on GM’s technology and supply chain. Many young people in the country want to buy Saab, but GM is against it. Some people may think that the Americans don’t want the country to get cash car manufacturing technology. Unfortunately, they are wrong. Volvo’s technology is relatively Saab is much more advanced.

The biggest source of profit for General Motors is the domestic joint venture car company. Magic Capital GM, you know, some people in China don’t want GM’s technology to appear on more models. Therefore, it directly opposes Bisabo being acquired by a Chinese company.

Now that Saab's bankruptcy has become a foregone conclusion, is it necessary for Qiancheng to acquire Saab after bankruptcy? It was also Modu Auto that inspired him that the Roewe MG is selling well in Europe.

China's Pangda, Youth, Huatai and Great Wall have contacted Saab successively. Youth and Pangda jointly invested US$350 million to hold 54% of the shares. Recently, they want to invest 100 million euros to acquire 100% of the shares.

It's a pity that GM, which has a veto power, weighed heavily and resolutely opposed it. For this reason, the Flower Committee has issued a risk warning, even if it is acquired, it may not be able to build a factory in China.

The general situation is like this, Qu Li contacted Lu Tao, called Zhang Qinan, his goal is very clear, as long as the Saab brand and technical team.

Qiancheng Motors is still unable to develop an automotive platform with existing talents. Talent competition is essential. Compared with recruiting from the market, there is no better and faster way than recruiting from Saab, which is about to go bankrupt.

"How to convince Sabo?"

"Is the future geometry convincing?"

"Our electric vehicles are world-leading."

"Glory has great popularity in Europe."

"Then there is nothing to hesitate."
