"With the upstream reservoir power station connected to the grid to provide power support, it is a natural advantage to build a big data processing center here that requires a large amount of natural water cooling system."
"Mr. Li, your vision is impeccable. Look, the city is planning to build a riverside park in this direction, and the supporting riverside avenue is also under construction...
It is imperative to ensure that the senior engineers working here are physically and mentally healthy and have enough leisure and entertainment options after work.
We guarantee that as long as Qingyun Big Data Center is successfully settled, the city will do its utmost to cooperate in the construction of supporting facilities, and resolutely provide money and personnel, and unconditionally guarantee it..."
Accompanied by the local prefect of Yib, Li Zehua personally inspected several selected pieces of land. When they came to a beautiful place on the river bank, the group stopped.
Looking around, the surrounding terrain is flat and the view is broad, which is perfect for the construction of a big data center with a planned area of over 100,000 square meters (Phase I).
For some special reasons, the local government showed strong welcome to Qingyun's investment, not only maximizing the preferential conditions allowed by the policy, but also providing additional local tax rebates and other support.
The riverside park and riverside road construction mentioned earlier, and industrial land are all exempted (pay first and refund later). The government also promised to actively contact financial institutions and coordinate local banks to take the lead in providing sufficient financial guarantees for project construction.
There was even a creative proposal to add a large additional area along the river to the planned area for transfer.
The project will be used for Qingyun Group to build its own riverside villa area, commercial residence or office building. The city will not interfere with whether it will be used for public sale or internal use later.
Land transfer fees, commercial loan interest subsidies, tax exemptions and subsidies alone can save the company hundreds of millions of dollars.
If a real estate company were to negotiate this, they would laugh in their dreams. Not only does the land not have to be paid for, the money for building the building is all contributed by the local government, and the surrounding parks, roads, medical, living, educational and other supporting facilities are also provided free of charge?
Looking across the country, there is no such good thing.
“Thank you for the sincere invitation from Shuji. I have come here to experience the hospitality of the Yib people and the vigor of the city…
I wish you a pleasant cooperation in advance."
Li Zehua gestured to Wang Fei who was taking notes beside him, "Add it to the list of key projects of the group, upgrade the preliminary project inspection team to the preparatory division, and supervise it personally, and report directly to me."
As soon as these words were spoken, all the people accompanying the inspection showed their ecstasy from the bottom of their hearts, especially the staff at the gate of Yi B Yamen, who almost opened champagne to celebrate on the spot.
It's not easy. This is a major project with a guaranteed annual investment of more than one billion yuan. It is no exaggeration to say that with the successful establishment of Qingyun Big Data Center, most of the local investment promotion work for the whole year has been completed in an instant, and it has a huge impact on GDP and taxation.
Everyone present can benefit greatly from it, and the same is true for Qingyun Group.
It cannot be overemphasized how important QingCloud Big Data Cloud Technology Company is, as it integrates the data and information security of all its subsidiaries.
Once completed and put into use, the group will thoroughly master its core competitive advantages, big data information analysis and processing, and algorithms, which will be used in the planning of takeaway express delivery routes.
Online car-hailing and freight truck order matching, shared economy deployment area and quantity optimization, Internet finance high-quality customer screening, and the crucial short video user preference push.
E-commerce plays an irreplaceable role in pushing products that online shoppers are interested in, providing more targeted searches and customized advertising displays, etc. The potential competitive advantages and commercial value it contains are worth more than billions.
Qingyun, which controls the entrance of mobile Internet traffic, has become even more powerful with the support of the big data center, and its soaring to the top is just around the corner...
"The initial investment is 12 billion yuan, and the annual investment in the future will not be less than this figure. At the same time, a scientific research and development laboratory building that can accommodate 3 to 5000 master's degree students and engineers with higher education will be built..."
As the company's project manager's explanation deepened, the staff of Yib Yamen were delighted. The influx of so many high-quality talents will surely drive the further development of the local consumer economy and service industry.
"Cooperating with Qingyun Group to move in smoothly is the top priority of our next work, which is related to the future development prospects of the entire city. With this golden phoenix, are we still worried that we won't be able to summon wild pheasants?
We need to give our subordinates a heads-up in advance, hold more briefings and mobilization meetings, and make it clear that anyone who smears our work of attracting investment will suffer for the rest of his life. "
The successful site selection means a big step forward for the project cooperation, and the boss's heart finally settled down. Because of his understanding of the current situation, he repeatedly reminded his deputy next to him, and the latter was also a smart man who understood it immediately.
"Don't worry, anyone who dares to show up in this matter, no matter who is involved behind it, will be dealt with seriously and will not be tolerated."
I thought that given that person's tragic ending, who would be so bold as to cause trouble at this critical juncture? Isn't it like a birthday star eating arsenic because he thinks his life is too long?
As the saying goes, a man is in love and a woman is willing, and their strengths complement each other, making them a match made in heaven. This is exactly what is happening in this situation. Multiple factors come together to play a role and push the cooperation towards the best direction.
As Qingyun Group's investment scale grows in the future, driving the local economy to flourish and providing more jobs and tax revenue, the cooperation between the two sides will become closer...
Before the New Year, we basically traveled around and visited various places. Qingyun Group also had its first busy Spring Festival since its establishment.
No one will take a holiday, and shift rosters will be set up for middle-level management and above, and they will stay at their posts to deal with any problems that may arise at any time.
Pinxixi is undoubtedly the busiest one. Whether it is an e-commerce or group buying platform, its daily sales volume has skyrocketed, causing Fengniao Express and Yunyunbang to also see a surge in orders.
Unlike Taobao, JD.com and other traditional e-commerce companies, they are unable to open their doors for business during the Chinese New Year due to the holidays of logistics and express delivery companies (JD.com Logistics is also closed).
JD.com is slightly better. After all, it cooperates directly with Fengniao and has sufficient distribution system support. After carefully selecting and abandoning some users in remote areas, it can still barely maintain its business.
Taotao and other companies are in more trouble. Cainiao, a network full of part-time workers and franchise systems, basically stops operating after the Chinese New Year holiday and can only maintain delivery services in a limited number of large cities.
The key is that the merchants who open stores on Taotao are not necessarily located in big cities, or the consumers who purchase the products are not in the delivery service area, which means that many e-commerce shopping opportunities are snatched away by Pinxixi.
Pinxixi, which has prepared sufficient supply in advance, has the added bonus of an industrial ecosystem chain and offline experience stores, and is taking advantage of this golden opportunity when there is no online competition, while also retaining customers in suburban cities and towns.
In addition, the two companies changed their competitive strategy during the Chinese New Year and invested all their resources into the group buying platform in the same-city group buying market. They also worked hand in hand to launch a series of competition policies targeting offline channel dealers.
Relying on the hard work of hundreds of thousands of full-time and part-time employees, as well as the strong support of the two groups, Fengniao and Yunyunbang, the traditional channel dealers were defeated in a short period of time.
Gome, Su Ning and other companies didn't even figure out why they lost until the end of this lightning assault. How could an e-commerce company not take a holiday during the Chinese New Year and still cripple them?
The overall market is growing wildly, and most of the key incremental market has been eaten up in advance by Pinxixi online in suburban towns and villages. In previous Chinese New Years, many consumers who flocked to cities to buy large items were intercepted halfway this year.
Through the Qingyun Group's agricultural benefit and assistance plan, the accumulated agricultural and sideline products on hand were successfully liquidated at high prices. Farmers with spare money and purchasing power turned around and went shopping on Pinxixi.
According to subsequent statistics, among the more than one million households assisted by the Qingyun Rural Benefit Program in the past year, more than 65% carried out concentrated retaliatory consumption in companies under the Qingyun Group.
Although the average spending amount of each of them is not much, and the items purchased are mainly candies, snacks, gifts and clothing to celebrate the New Year, the cumulative contribution is an astronomical figure that makes people dizzy.
There are countless cases of them driving consumption among people around them, which has further strengthened the entire group's determination to explore the sinking market and invest more resources in Qingyun Agricultural Service Company.
This is true in rural areas, and it is even crazier in cities. The Qingyun system, which has learned viral marketing strategies from insurance companies, has combined its two most powerful part-time systems into one.
That is, the restaurants, small and medium-sized businesses, and individual part-time jobs that were originally developed through group buying platforms, Pinxixi experience stores, Chimei, Fengniao, and Yunyunbang, and the more formal and rigorous part-time job system for college students are unified and centrally allocated.
Although there were shortcomings in management and many of the envisioned goals were not achieved, when this huge part-time team of over 500,000 people began to introduce and sell the products to people around them, it still caused quite a stir.
The products sold in the Pinxixi experience store and the Pinxixi group buying platform (which is limited to the same city during the Chinese New Year period, and Fengniao cannot deliver in time beyond the range) are all big brands with guaranteed quality.
The preferential policies are clearly arranged, and the price system is protected by strict rules and regulations. There is no such thing as different prices for the same product or overcharging customers by serving different dishes to different people.
With multiple guarantees such as equal treatment, good shopping reputation, timely door-to-door delivery and installation, seven-day unconditional return and exchange, and other after-sales services, coupled with the positive recommendations of friends and relatives (1.5% of sales as a part-time rebate), many people reluctantly completed their first e-commerce consumption experience and contributed to Qingyun Group's billion sales in the new year.
This Spring Festival is undoubtedly the most wonderful one for merchants cooperating with the Pinxixi group buying platform. There is no cruel commercial competition or brutal price wars. There are only countless consumers and a steady stream of money coming in.
Hummingbird employees are on call 24 hours a day. They travel through the streets and alleys of the city just to deliver the products ordered by consumers to their doorsteps as soon as possible.
There is no need to worry about large items either, as Yunyunbang’s registered drivers drive their own vehicles to help. They also usher in the happiest New Year. Delivery prices have increased and the number of orders has skyrocketed.
Through unified coordination via phone messages, computers and smartphone apps, you can contact and receive orders anytime and anywhere.
Compared with other employees of Qingyun, they are undoubtedly the happiest. When they want to run, they will get orders. When they take orders, they will get money. In their spare time, they can stay at home with their families without missing any time to visit relatives and friends.
If you want to make money, just drop your job and take on a job anytime and anywhere. When you come back, you can play cards at the table.
The delivery men who stayed behind after eating out are just as happy as the restaurant owners who confirmed in advance that they would open during the Spring Festival. There is still demand for takeout during the Spring Festival, and since there are few restaurants open, business is even more booming.
In addition, thanks to the cooperation with Qingyun Agricultural Service Company, there is an adequate supply of raw materials. The owners of these cooperating restaurants now basically have computers or smart phones, and can place orders at any time through professional websites and apps for door-to-door delivery.
What makes Qingyun’s competitors feel sick is that it seems like they have been almost abandoned by the whole world during the Lunar New Year holiday!
There is only one company, Qingyun, in the market that is madly expanding its business. They have disappeared from the eyes of consumers, and this situation has caused great damage to the brand value.
Almost all the bosses of rival companies were gnashing their teeth in hatred and had to go to work during the Spring Festival next year. They could not let the Qingyun Group dominate the market.
But don’t they think about whether they have a systematic industrial ecosystem like Qingyun Group with complementary advantages?
It’s like if all the employees of Taotao are at work, what happens?
Tongda Express, SF Express and the Post Office are all closed for holiday. Who should I ask to deliver the goods after selling?
For example, Cainiao and EMI, with such a small scale of operations during the Spring Festival, it would be strange if they didn't lose everything.
It’s like offline channel dealers go to work as usual during the Spring Festival, but they are still being beaten by the Qingyun Group?
This year's Spring Festival they just felt that they were caught off guard by the sneak attack and clamored to take revenge next year. Then next year's Spring Festival, they will understand what it means to be innocent.
Unless they mobilize all upstream and downstream of the industrial chain to work together, combine the advantages of the entire industry and engage in crazy internal competition with Qingyun Group, to see who can kill whom first.
Otherwise, I can’t win, I can’t win at all, I can only complain to the higher authorities, Qingyun Group is suspected of monopolizing the industrial chain, and violates the principle of fair competition...
What makes the grassroots, especially the employees of Hummingbird, unhappy is that they cannot get delivery orders from stores such as KFC and McDonald's. These stores have special partner companies, and even if they cannot deliver the orders, they will not give some orders to Hummingbird.
The business cooperation negotiations are still ongoing, but the prices asked by these large catering groups are too high. After the headquarters did the math and took into account things like entry fees and deposits, it was not cost-effective at all.
The company's profits are not enough to pay commissions to the deliverymen. Does this increase the company's revenue, or is the company spending money and manpower to expand KFC and McDonald's revenue channels?
These multinational corporations have no sincerity in negotiations and always act superior, as if they are giving food to Qingyun Group and the latter has to beg them to make money.
(Off topic, someone who claimed to be giving food to the mainland has returned in disgrace due to the shortage of foreign power supply and the quality of employees.)
At the end of the conversation, Qin Lang got angry. He slammed the table and gritted his teeth, vowing to make Qingyun Agricultural Service Company a success and start engaging in large-scale chicken and duck breeding industry after the new year.
Isn't it just growing tomatoes, adding lettuce, making some potatoes and fried chicken? It's as if there are some technical barriers to this.
Chizume Catering Management Company and the group's marketing operations department jointly submitted a 400-page business analysis report to the decision-making committee, comprehensively elaborating on the feasibility plan of entering the fast food industry in the future.
The ones we hit are KFC and McDonald's.
Relying on the huge market demand in the mainland, we will strive to build a raw material supply chain centered on the meals of these two companies in the first one to two years. In the early stage, we will digest the production capacity by centrally supplying goods to large supermarkets, farmers' markets, and fruit and vegetable stores.
This includes the establishment of large-scale broiler breeding factories, potato planting (French fries and potato chips), tomatoes, chili sauce, beverages (including cola and other beverages), beef cattle breeding, and other factories that produce raw materials for fast food restaurants.
The medium-term plan is to entrust Qingyun Real Estate to purchase suitable street-facing storefronts in the commercial districts of major cities across the country in 2012/13, learn from the franchise system of KFC and McDonald's, adopt the company's assembly line-style unified management, and then expand on a large scale.
That is, by publicly recruiting franchisees from the society, using their funds and connections to provide development support for domestic fast food brands. If the operation is good, it can automatically snowball and grow without even spending too many resources on the company.
Because the interest groups of the older generation of franchised foreign fast food brands are very powerful, it would be difficult for the Qingyun Group to gain broad support if it rushed in alone. It must win over enough emerging forces and attack as a group in order to have a chance of winning.
This plan will begin its pilot program this year. The main profit guarantee in the early stage is to master the core competitive advantages in the takeout market and ensure survival in the early stage by focusing on recommending the company's fast food products to takeout consumers.
As for the so-called formula, "core technology" that controls the quality and taste of fast food, all you need to do is poach people on a large scale. This is just a bluff. The core competitiveness of foreign fast food lies in the raw material supply system.
The secret is the 45-day-old broiler chickens, which together with franchisees all over the world give it an unparalleled competitive advantage. It can suppress the growth of its competitors through fierce price wars, public opinion wars, market public relations and other means.
However, this move obviously has no effect on the Qingyun Group. Panda/Honor Electronics ensures the mobile phone hardware, forcing Internet competitors not to smear it too much (otherwise they will retaliate and remove it from the shelves), and WeChat Technology/TikTok Interactive Entertainment ensures the mobile phone software and control of public opinion.
Qingyun Agricultural Service Company and its affiliated companies ensure the raw material supply chain system. Foreign fast food companies also influence and control the prices of raw materials through equity participation and controlling stakes, while Qingyun Group directly operates its own business in one step. It is obvious who has lower costs.
Unless all those supply chain companies do charity and subsidize foreign fast food restaurants out of their own pockets, this battle for the raw material supply chain will make foreign fast food restaurants question their lives.
In terms of background, the Qingyun faction, which has also attracted a group of emerging forces, will never be afraid of Western fast food. Anyone can use the means that cannot be seen in private at the beginning, but no one dares to use them in the end.
In Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia, the Qingyun Group can fully attract local powerful companies and build a brand new fast food empire from scratch, which will inject new vitality into the company's future development.
A perfect catering plan that provides continuous cash flow support for the group!
The decision-making committee didn't even take much time to vote unanimously, and then immediately worked to bring in the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, China National Grain and Oils Reserves Corporation, Shanghai State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, Magic Investment and Temasek, with an initial registered capital of 1 billion yuan.
It is expected that one to two hundred stores will be opened in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai and eastern Guangdong this year to test the waters, and whether to open up operations will be decided later based on specific development conditions.
Staff? There are so many people working in foreign fast food restaurants, so you can poach them as much as you can.
You are not allowed to eat it? I will give you foreign fast food and dig out the roots!
……
After staying in Yibin for a day, Li Zehua returned to Chengdu, picked up the two sisters who were resting in the Governor's Mansion Guesthouse, and headed southwest.
Shen Wanqing seemed to realize something. She looked at her sister in the car, then looked at someone. Perhaps because she was tired from the long journey, she was unusually quiet this time.
This also saved Li Zehua from embarrassment, and he could handle some group business along the way. Only Shen Wanyi cast a loving and doting look at him from time to time.
Happy time is always short-lived.
The vehicle entered the Daliangshan area, and there were high mountains and steep ridges along the way. It was completely difficult to move forward. When Li Zehua was told that there were still six kilometers to go home, he was completely stunned...
