Chapter 915 Internet Chaos
In this world, of course, there cannot be only Bill Gates. As Master Qiao said, he is very successful, but can't you make the product better?
Of course, it won't work if it's all Jobs. Difficulty in choosing may usher in the gospel, because you don't have to choose at all, just listen to Jobs, and your choices are all wrong.
Jobs was paranoid, and so was Andy Grove. Silicon Valley, a wonderful place, seems to have become a paradise for paranoia.
William White faintly felt that something was wrong. Today's IT ecosystem is completely beyond recognition. He is familiar with the names of those companies, but why is their development trajectory so weird.
Damn it, can't you follow the original path? In this way, buddy's foresight is useless!
Yes, it must be this PayPal.
The successful launch of online payment is indeed amazing to the world. Although it is just some small payments, this thing actually solves the problem of Internet profitability.
In other words, it used to be an eyeball economy, but now, someone uses a bridge to connect online and offline.
Yahoo began to engage in paid mailboxes with great fanfare, and eBay also began to be restless. In other words, with PayPal, they can finally stop being salted fish.
Since idle supplies can be sold through the Internet, can the types of this product be enriched?
With this hive, it is very important that the channel between the warehouse and the consumer is smooth. Before that, some people were just having fun, some people were just bored, and the postage they paid far exceeded the value of the goods.
As for now, is it possible to consider making money? The cost is very simple, the maintenance cost of the website plus storage and freight costs. The next thing you need to do is to understand what those online worms need to buy?
NBC Online, So easy, Yahoo, these kinds of websites suddenly have an extra value. Many people have discovered that these so-called portals can direct Internet user traffic.
Fuck, now who dares to say that this is meaningless?
If so, if you know it, just smile, others don’t have the obligation to popularize science for you. I don't know, so I continued to echo with my blood.
However, what makes them very speechless is that Buffett and Greenspan, who were the first to clamor for the Internet bubble, have stopped talking. Facts have proved that the two of you really don't understand much.
Since you don't understand, it's meaningless to forcibly raise the bar. It's okay to lose, if you continue to complain without grace, everyone will treat them as clowns.
"Tom, the speed of the outlets still can't keep up! It can't go on like this."
Fat Cat Tom didn't expect that a company that was unknown a few months ago suddenly exploded. However, he can only listen to half of what Jeff Bezos has to say.
Just kidding, the speed at which we open new stores can only be described as exaggerated. Also, both PayPal and Honeycomb are independent companies, and it is impossible to only help Amazon deliver goods.
"Jeff, who has opened a store at this speed? To tell you the truth, the boss's think tank is strongly opposed to this investment."
"Tch, what do they know? If your boss just opened a supermarket, it wouldn't be worth it. Isn't there other key businesses?"
"You're right, do you know why both PayPal and Hive are held by offshore companies?"
Jeff Bezos found himself wrong, and William White didn't seem to care about taxes. If he put all these companies under his own name, he might not be able to escape the anti-monopoly investigation.
So, he has nothing to complain about. Whether William White likes it or not, both companies will provide services to PayPal.
Isn't Yahoo still competing with NBC for e-mail users? You haven't seen PayPal refuse to cooperate, have you?
In fact, the conditions given are basically the same as NBC Online.
"Bill, what if I migrate computer sales to the Internet."
Looking at the eager Michael Dell, Bill Gates was a little tangled. He has to admit that William White has come up with a very crazy thing.
Let alone computers in the future, car real estate is not impossible. They are all insiders, so they can see clearly. The method is not important, the platform is not important, you can get through the joints inside, this is the most important thing.
"Michael, transportation will be a big problem. Will these computers, when they reach customers, become parts."
"Tch, damn William White, he can't make that bird's nest bigger."
"Hahaha, hahaha, just kidding, these 7-11s are in very good locations. Let me tell you, he bought many of them."
Michael Dell really has nothing to say except to make complaints about local tyrants.
"Michael, items that are too valuable, it's better to point to point.
My recent software is still selling well, but you don't have to worry, since there is such a market demand, those courier companies will change somewhat. By the way, you haven't been to his central storage base yet, have you? "
When Michael Dell stays, isn't it just a relatively large warehouse? What's there to see?
"It's big?" He asked with some doubts.
"It's not a matter of size. He is building a fully automatic logistics system. The difficulty of this project is far more than those of automobile assembly lines."
They are not fools, the two guys looked at each other, and they both understood the meaning in each other's eyes. William White's ambition is so great that it cannot be summed up by supermarkets and beehives.
That's right, those guys were battling online. What they didn't expect was that William White was laying down an offline platform.
In the end, it’s useless to be as good as 13 online. What’s the virtue of express delivery in the United States, and what they don’t understand.
However, they still thought it simple. Do you know that Jingxi of the later generations will deliver fast for Mao?
The number of times you click on the item determines how much they store in this sub-warehouse.
The so-called big data, to put it bluntly, is a mathematical model. If one hundred people click, five people may buy. Over time, this becomes a probability.
So, prepare how much inventory, and push some information when you open the webpage next time.
It's just a spending habit, and you have it when you're shopping in the mall. The more conspicuous shelves are either the best sellers or the most profitable. The so-called big data just transplants this consumption habit from offline to online.
Higher accuracy and higher success rate. Of course, shopping is more fun.
Buy it, buy it, buy a bunch of useless things desperately. If it doesn't work, can't it still be sold through eBay?
Therefore, William White is happy to see the current chaos on the Internet. If everyone develops step by step, this industry will not be hot.
Not to mention the US emperor, it was not the same for the big rabbit country later. First it was the Yellow Pages, and then it was Ali. E-commerce has been talked about for many years, and few people understand what it means.
Send an email to advertise, and make a few links on the website. Cough cough, this stuff is not actually called e-commerce.
The funniest thing is that several colleges and universities also use this thing to offer courses, and they have a special e-commerce major.
There are gossip claims that when Teacher Dida was lecturing, Papa Ma secretly went to listen in. The professor was frothy, telling the students things he didn't understand himself.
In the end, I came to a conclusion that Papa Ma can play for at most one year, and then go back to school to teach English.
