Although the past life and the present are two different worlds, with some differences in structure, the overall development trend is still the same.
From now on, when talking about making money, we will never leave real estate, the Internet, smartphones, and new energy. The other industries are all derivative industries formed by these four major industries.
First of all, Heather is not very interested in real estate. There is a certain amount of income in the short term of more than ten years, but it is not so ideal if you want stable long-term income.
Smartphones, let alone Heather, if the technical requirements are not met, the research and development of optical chips is not a small amount, and it may end up becoming a processing factory for others.
The Internet is relatively simple, and the requirements for entry are lower. In addition, I was born as a coder in my previous life, so it is most in line with my current development plan.
As for the issue of cultivator restrictions, Shi Nan ran to register the company after learning about the situation at the bar, and was able to get the business license in two days.
The Internet industry requires a certain level of technical content. The information on the five people in this file in my hand refers to the five Internet tycoons who emerged only after 2005 in the previous life.
Competition in this industry has begun to emerge. Today, Ali is fighting against Quyi, but in fact the scale is already quite large. The Penguin Group is even rumored to have broken through to the early stages of Hedao, and their instant chat tool has completely covered the Chinese market.
If you are just starting out now and don’t have talented people, it will be a dead end and it will be very difficult to make it big.
Of course, with these five people, as long as I provide support and firmly control them, it will be difficult not to get rich.
But that's all a story for another day. What Shinan has to consider now is which aspect to focus on first. Social software, Internet finance, online games, search engines, online videos...
According to the current situation, the first thing to solve is the payment problem. As long as the online payment is completed, the rest is not up to you.
Recalling his past life, Ali now has a third-party payment license and provides Ali with payment services alone.
It seems that Heather is far away from getting this license. What he currently lacks are two main things. First, he needs to reach the true hole-empty stage, and second, he needs to continuously provide information processing support services to financial institutions for more than 2 years.
Starting from scratch is a bit too realistic. The way to be one is to seek cooperation. Following the footsteps of the big guys and taking advantage of the momentum is the wisest choice. As for punching the big and small ponies, Heather has never thought about it, otherwise he would not know how he died.
The simplest thing is to cooperate with UnionPay. Although UnionPay currently has a license, it is all offline payment. As long as you cooperate with it to develop online payment, it will be much simpler.
In terms of specific industries, what Shinan thinks of is e-commerce. Web shopping malls should not be too simple for Shinan, a coder from a later generation. The total development time for front-end and back-end development only takes a week, and if you add in the filing and review time, it can be completed in up to ten days.
The difficulty of e-commerce still lies in logistics. Many express delivery companies in 2005 have not yet opened up the national market, but the logistics network has begun to take shape.
Shinan has been thinking about it for a long time. E-commerce platforms and parcel collection service points are his first choices. The collection service is the point, the e-commerce platform is the network, and other industries fill in the blanks, which is a point-to-network layout idea.
The entry requirements for both industries are not high, and they do not need to be rolled out at once. They can develop dormantly in Sichuan first. When conditions are suitable, they can be deployed nationwide at any time.
E-commerce platforms and parcel collection do not have to exist independently, but can complement each other.
It can also be run as a real business, including e-commerce platforms. It can be run as a real economy without having to spread the stall too big at one time.
First, set up a few collection points, contact several express companies, and build a simpler localized e-commerce platform.
It doesn't cost much, and things are relatively simple. Heather is a household name in Miancheng, and he's a cultivator, so it's easy to come to discuss cooperation.
After thinking about the basic route, the only thing left is the partners. At present, the local express delivery industry is still dominated by Huaxia Post, and Fengshun Express is making arrangements. It must be easier to find Fengshun Express.
…
Having a direction, Heather did not hesitate.
The next day, Shinan called Shiyun to borrow a car, and drove to Fengshun Express Miancheng branch without letting Yin Kang drive.
Although he doesn't have a driver's license, Heather is not worried. If he is caught, he can just show him his cultivator certificate. Although the practitioner's certificate cannot replace the driver's license, as long as there is no accident, it will not be embarrassing. But whenever something goes wrong, Heather will be fully responsible.
The cultivator's certificate has such advantages. Heather, who considers herself an experienced driver, naturally will not let others drive, so she drove out of Xianhu Tianyuan by herself.
…
Shinan first came to the logistics park, and at the gate of Fengshun Express Miancheng branch, the staff were busy taking out the goods from the space artifacts and sorting them onto different shelves.
After getting off the car, Shinan asked the staff who were picking up the goods at the entrance of the factory warehouse: "Hello, is the person in charge here here?"
The staff member was a middle-aged uncle. He wiped some sweat with the handkerchief around his neck, looked at Heather and said, "Brother, I am the manager here. What can I do for you?"
"Hello, I'd like to work with you on a business. I wonder if you're interested." Heather said as she handed over a piece of Huazi.
The other party waved his hand, pointed to the no-smoking sign on the factory warehouse and said, "Go to the office to chat."
As soon as he entered the office, the middle-aged uncle took off his gloves, threw them casually on the table and asked, "My name is Yu Da. I am the general manager of Feng Shun Express Miancheng Branch. Can you tell me something?"
"Brother Yu, my name is Shi Nan. It's like this. Every time you deliver goods, do you have to hand them over to the customer?" Shi Nan didn't know how to explain to the other party, so he tried to speak in a direction that the other party could understand.
"Are you a merchant who sells things on Baobao.com?" Yu Da picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.
"No." Shi Nan shook his head and continued: "When you deliver goods, does the recipient sometimes have something to do and is away, so it takes multiple deliveries before he can sign for it?"
"That's it. Can you solve this problem?" Yu Dayi was interested. If he could really help him solve this problem, he might still hope to be promoted to a provincial company.
"Brother Yu, I have rented some shops in some densely populated communities in Miancheng. In the future, you only need to send the goods to these shops of mine for storage. When the pick-up person is free, he will naturally come to my place to pick up the goods. It saves your delivery personnel time." Shinan stared at Yu Da, observing his expression.
Yu Da's eyes lit up first, he thought for a few seconds and said, "That's good, but the question is how can I trust you not to steal other people's goods without permission?"
"We can sign an agreement, and I can give you a part of the deposit. If the goods are stolen, the loss can be deducted from the deposit, and we can bear all the shortfall, but the premise is that it was caused after it was placed in our store." Heather explained.
"That's for sure. Whoever is responsible is responsible." Yu Da nodded, feeling that this matter was reliable.
Shinan continued to smile and said: "First of all, we can't provide services for free, right? We charge 5% for each item. Isn't this a problem?"
"Five percent? The price is quite reasonable! Where do you have sites now?" Yu Da's interest increased greatly.
"Currently, there are more than ten in Miancheng, all of which are densely populated communities." There are not so many shops in Shinan, but renting such shops is not a big problem, so he just said casually.
"The deposit must not be less than 100,000, and we can sign the contract now." Yu Da also said that he would be happy to have a win-win situation.
"Brother Yu, don't worry, I haven't finished yet. We can also help you collect the goods that others need to send. When your delivery personnel come over every day, they only need to collect the goods that need to be sent. The price is also 100. Five-fifths. As for the deposit, let’s settle on one hundred thousand." Shi Nan said unhurriedly.
Yu Dayi thought it was indeed good. According to his daily throughput here, it was only about 10,000 pieces of goods a day, which means that 500 pieces a day could solve two problems. It can also save current staff wages. There are now more than 300 delivery staff in the Miancheng branch. If we only deliver to the sites provided by Shi Nan, each site only needs one person per day. One person at the delivery site can do the workload of more than ten people before.
"You tell me the specific location of your site, and we'll choose one first and try to cooperate." Yu Da is also a smart man, and he is not so reckless as to ask Shi Nan to sign the contract.
Shinan took out a map of Miancheng City and unfolded it. There were many community names circled by Shinan with a red pen. "Take a look at it first. All of these circles are OK."
This map was just a community where Shi Nan was considering setting up a site in the early stage last night, and it has not actually been opened yet.
"This location is good, Lijing Huacheng, let's try it here first." Yu Da said, pointing to a community on the map close to Miancheng Railway Station and next to Changsheng River.
"Okay, you can ask someone to deliver it tomorrow, and we can go to the bank now, and I will pay you the deposit first." Heather said calmly.
"No, since it is cooperation, there is still trust. Let's try to cooperate first tomorrow." Yu Da stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Heather. The two looked at each other and smiled.
Lijing Huacheng Community...
Shinan parked the car in a parking space on the roadside, asked the security guard, and went directly to the property management company. Accompanied by the property manager of the community, Shinan took a fancy to a shop with more than ten square feet near the gate of the community and paid 48,000 yuan as two years' rent. Then Shinan found a nearby shop that made window guards and asked the boss to use these aluminum alloys to make four pairs of shelves.
Knowing that the shelves would take the afternoon to finish, Heather drove to the job market and recruited two people who looked like they were honest. Both of them are in their forties, one has worked as a nanny for a while, and the other is a laid-off employee of the elixir factory. Shinan gave both of them a salary of 2,000, which was pretty good in this era when the average salary in Miancheng was less than 800.
After briefly introducing the work content to the two of them, he took them to the store they just rented. The two of them were treated to a simple lunch at noon, while Heather installed the four shelves. After looking at this, which smelled a bit like Laidiao Inn, Heather still felt that something was missing.
After thinking about it, looking at the empty door, I patted my forehead and realized that my name was missing. I randomly found an advertising company on the street and designed a logo using GX. In order to facilitate the future, Heather made the word "sharing" appear in people's sight ten years earlier...
