Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 506 Tan Lijun resigns

The prefect of Xingsha learned from Qu Li that the person in charge of Shiguang WeChat would take over Shiguang Company, and was very curious about Huang Zheng, so he warmly received him and wanted to win over this talent.So Huang Zheng stayed in Xingsha to inspect the environment, and Qu Li returned to Yangcheng.

At Jumei's first annual meeting, people from all major subsidiaries would come, and many people had to report to him.He canceled the PPT report and only used it to deceive people during publicity.

Not many people have grown up in the Jumei system. Professional managers are very good at deception, emphasizing their own role and ignoring the importance of other things intentionally or unintentionally. It is not easy for Qu Li to be in this position. He must always be vigilant and not be misled. .

Therefore, he came up with the "first principle" and emphasized products, prices and services. Entry into the platform must be a legal and compliant enterprise, provide the lowest possible price, and finally provide good services.No matter how hard they try, they have to work hard in these three directions.

But now the situation has changed a lot. Shopify serves third-party sellers and does not directly serve customers. So what are the assessment standards? GMV?

In comparison, cloud computing and search are simpler. The former is struggling to serve Good Times, Youku, and Weibo. You must know that the number of Weibo users increased to 3 million last year, and Wang Xing can't even take care of the group buying business. Jumei Cloud can really help. them.Needless to say, Youku, Jumei Cloud reduces their fixed asset investment and maintenance costs.The current service capabilities of cloud computing are in short supply, and there is no need to go to the market at all.

As for the search for ancient songs, Lin Bing is in charge, so Qu Li probably knows about it.

Lin Bing is really under pressure to truly control a company by himself. He didn't feel it at Jumei. Looking at Qu Li's effortless handling, he thought it was very simple, but when it was his turn...

The advantage of Baidu is becoming more and more obvious. Guge maintains a market share of about 25%, but it cannot break through the 30% mark. Is it really necessary to strengthen manual intervention in search results?

Lin Bing built a middle platform in Jumei, which was already a hot topic in Internet entrepreneurship. It is said that BAT is discussing whether it is shameful to implement middle platform in its own company and learn from Jumei's approach?

If there was still hesitation at the beginning, this time WeChat stared at the goose factory in the second half of 2011 and won the victory with murderous methods. Not only did Huang Zheng become famous, but also "Jumeiyun" "Provide computing services", as well as the tacit cooperation between various departments, the "middle platform" organization has almost been deified.

You must know that the QO on the PC side of Goose Factory and the QO on the mobile side are not in charge of the same "boss". There are many difficulties in coordinating actions.Tengxin has two founders of Goose Factory and a product guru, but they failed to defeat Qu Li's "assistant". Apart from personal abilities, they only have the advantage of organizational structure.

The praise from the outside world, living under the same Internet, all departments of Jumei naturally see it, and most people are still proud of it, especially Lin Bing, the "Father of China and Taiwan".

At this time, even if he doesn't agree with it, Qu Li won't say anything bad, just be happy. If there are any problems, he will adjust them after the annual meeting. No matter how fast the Internet is, it is impossible not to take a nap.

But Qu Li wanted to be happy, but someone didn't want to.

"I want to apply for resignation." Tan Lijun walked up to Qu Li and said this

Qu Li looked at the old man and didn't know what to say for a moment: "Let's have a drink together after the annual meeting." Although Qu Li didn't like drinking, he still drank occasionally.

"it is good!"

With mixed feelings, he started Jumei's annual meeting. He didn't have much to talk about. As long as he mastered the lip-synching skills, he could also hold a concert.

After singing "The Lonely Warrior", he was about to leave, but he put down his guitar and picked up the microphone.

"I said what I should have said in my New Year's Eve speech. I shouldn't repeat it, but I still take advantage of these opportunities to emphasize: Jumei is not a Chinese company (as Mr. Ren of Chrysanthemum Factory said), we are a global company. Company! So don’t mention words like national enterprise or patriotic marketing to me, and don’t use these words for Jumei, Glory, Future..."

"The Internet has no boundaries, and shallow waters cannot raise dragons. I hope everyone will not set limits on themselves, and don't stop just because they have achieved financial freedom..." Qu Li stopped and paused for a while. "We must use it to break through our comfort zones. Learn to delay gratification..."

"Jumei's focus last year was logistics. You should have seen how many changes we have made. In addition to Jumei Logistics, we established Tongda Network. I actually don't want to explain, but it seems that there are many people who don't understand."

"The purpose of establishing Tongda Network is not to expand our business scope or compete with Ali; it is to improve the logistics infrastructure and serve Juhuasuan's third-party sellers. Jumei Logistics is one of our core competitiveness …”

"In addition, Tongda Network's business scope only covers the domestic market for the time being, and we will have to figure out the logistics for Shopee and Shopify ourselves."

"You have to know: the essence of strategy is focus, and the essence of focus is choice. So our plan this year is to first continue to improve e-commerce infrastructure, including logistics, online payment, etc.; secondly, to migrate from PC to mobile; thirdly The third is cloud computing.”

"Originally, I wanted you to accumulate strength at home and slowly catch up. But now that I think about it, it's still too conservative. It's not necessary at all. If you don't compete with the best competitors in the world and don't understand cutting-edge technology and development, How do you know how big the gap is?"

"Go, do you deserve it, fight, fight!"

"Don't be afraid of failure. Jumei will not go bankrupt in two or three years."

Qu Li spoke eloquently, without any impassioned words, but it was still a bit disappointing. Who made him feel unhappy? Everyone was unhappy together.After walking off the stage, Qu Li said nothing and watched everyone's performance happily.

Tan Lijun's academic qualifications are not very high. He used to work for Li & Fung China. In the early days of Jumei, when Qu Li was tinkering with "clothing e-commerce", he played a big role. If Qu Li hadn't been half-hearted, he would have changed from a vertical e-commerce to a platform, his status in the company will be higher.The reason why he was arranged to go to the United States was related to his lax control.

"My English level has not improved..." Tan Lijun said about his work situation in the United States. He did encounter a lot of problems. So why did his performance not drop? Of course, it was because of cheating. With the blessing of Honor and Google Shopping, It is difficult to get worse. The problem is that profit margins have fallen seriously.

"It's difficult for me to start working in the United States." Tan Lijun

Qu Li is also aware of the difficulties involved, but Dadongzi and Xu Lei will also face similar dilemmas. It is better to hire professional managers from China than from the United States. At least he will not feel guilty when firing people.

Does Kejumei still have a place for Tan Lijun?He may also have thought about this problem, so he directly mentioned his resignation.
