Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Zhang Yuan and Mayang looked at each other.

Mayang's mouth slightly twitched: “Brother Qian, if you don't say anything else first, just say the name, it's a little bad... it means our logistics are particularly slow, right? ”

Pei Qian shook his head: “Old horse, you just ate the loss of culture. The direction of the wind is better for flying, you understand? It's our name. We're ready to take off! ”

Zhang Yuan blinked and did not speak.

Can't keep up with Bae's jumping mind at all!

Just now, Zhang Yuan also tried to speculate on what President Pei's next goal was.

Did you do the rest of the branches?

Or is it touching fish takeout?

None of them turned out to be, President Bai laid the stall even bigger...

They both looked at Pei Qian with their eyes open.

Pei Qian cleared his voice: “I know that this layout may be a little big, but for the current funds, there is some power left unattended. ”

“However, I am not in a hurry to set up a large logistics company that covers the entire country, or even intend to do courier business in the city. ”

“We focus only on the city of Jingzhou and on solving the 'last kilometer' problem! ”

The world actually has an online shopping platform, but for the time being it has not developed to the kind of popular online shopping.

As for logistics and couriers, they are naturally already covered nationwide and have developed well.

However, most couriers are still in a state of barbaric growth, and it is not uncommon to send items in a timely manner, lose parts, or throw them to pick-up points for customers to pick up.

In other words, there are only a few cases of door-to-door delivery.

In a nutshell, that is the question of the "last kilometre”.

Even until 10 years later, the problem was not solved well. Except for a few conscience couriers such as Shunfeng, Jingdong and others who would definitely deliver to the door, all the other couriers were thrown at the collection point in the past.

Hives, rookie stops, etc. are all solutions to the last kilometre problem, but the experience can be described as very bad.

Ultimately, or because of the cost.

Most couriers choose to pass on this cost to consumers precisely because it is difficult to get every item from the local warehouse to the front door.

And Pei Qian's idea is simple, no one wants to do this kind of dirty work, just don't want to make money?

I don't dislike it!

Anyway, it's a loss. Take this dirty life to yourself. It can both be a loss and provide some convenience. Why not?

“I have considered opening a hundred headwind stations in Jingzhou City in the first period, covering the vast majority of the neighborhoods in Jingzhou City. ”

“We'll talk directly with the couriers and have their couriers put all the nearby deliveries to us before we deliver them. ”

To be honest, it's a rookie station that can be delivered to your door.

But the problem is, rookie stops are profitable.

The first investment of the rookie station is no more than 20,000 or so, you just need to rent a one-story suite in the neighborhood, pay 1,200 rent per month (at which point the rent level in Jingzhou will be taken into account), pay more than 10,000 more for shelves, reception, computers, table cabinets, renovation, etc. before you can start operating.

Talk to the courier about the price. Each courier can charge anywhere from $20,000 to $40,000, and charge two or three hundred couriers a day. You can earn about 3,000 a month by collecting them from the courier.

Grocery stations are generally operated by two people, and other cash means include the sale of goods, advertising access, courier service, etc.

Taken together, rookie stops are profitable, so many people volunteer to be rookie stops.

But what Pei Qian is going to do against the wind is not the same thing at all, because it needs to be delivered to the door proactively!

On the one hand, it increases the net cost of couriers and requires at least one or two couriers to work hard every day for 300 couriers, all of which are paid by Pei Huan;

On the other hand, customers do not have to go to the station to pick up their own parts. If the traffic is small, then the revenue from the sale of goods and advertisements at the station will naturally fall.

At least three people, a store manager, two couriers, and some high-traffic neighborhoods may need three couriers to support such a station, based on a 3000 person standard (base salary + commission), and a month's net cost of over 9,000.

On the basis of 2,000 rent and 9,000 wages, profits barely reach three or four thousand, with a net loss of seven or eight thousand.

In this way, 100 stations invest 3 million in the first period, and the net loss per month can reach 780,000.

Moreover, this is just the beginning, and as Pei Huan's stall grows bigger and more employees, losses will continue to rise.

Best of all, the loss of this thing is probably estimable and controllable!

For example, Pei Qian estimated a month before the settlement that he would need to spend about a million dollars of system funds, so he could drive more than 20 new wind stations directly at light speed. If he opened the store a week before the settlement, even if the funds were spent smoothly, the settlement would not be delayed.

The wind is not like touching a fish net cafe. It drives fast and closes fast. The so-called boat turns around nicely, making it more suitable for sudden spending.

Pei Qian has thought about it, and must give priority to Tengda, Feihuang Studios, Fishnet Cafe and the counterwind station near his own home.

Whether you're shopping online or your parents are shopping online, you don't have to pick up a pickup point and send it all home.

Anyway, it's all for the benefit of society, which must start with your own home.

It's perfect to have done both the loss and the good deed!

After listening to Pei Qian's introduction, Zhang Yuan completely obeyed.

Indeed, President Pei's thoughts are always so unpredictable!

Looks like another pretty long layout this time.

Although Pei Qian did not expressly state it, Zhang Yuan can roughly guess the intention of this move.

By solving the "last kilometre” problem, we can gradually make people dependent on headwind logistics.

Indeed, in the short run, there will be sustained losses, but in the long run?

After getting accustomed to the service of delivering the goods to the door, everyone will send the delivery again, and naturally priority will be given to finding the goods.

In the future, counterwind logistics will naturally continue to set foot in the same city express and even national express...

However, this layout is too long to be expected by most people!

Perhaps in the years to come, counterwind logistics will continue to lose money, but once successful, it may have a profound impact on all aspects of people's lives.

Zhang Yuan couldn't help but pay tribute to Bae Huan.

Look, that's the pattern!
