Chapter 75 Speech
“That’s right.”
The professor smiled and nodded.
"Then who do you think will win the throne of the martial arts leader in the future?"
Although the professor is humorous, no one dares to answer this question easily.
Although Tokyo University is a first-class university in the country, after all, those here are still just students. In terms of theory, they can only talk on paper. To judge the victory, defeat, rise and fall of the two Internet giants, those economists may not dare to talk nonsense. Nonsense, how dare they speak so shamelessly.
"Sit down first."
Without embarrassing the pair of students, the professor raised his hand to signal them to sit down, and then asked: "Does anyone know what the nature of the Internet is?"
Hearing this, all the students had their own ideas in their minds.
This kind of question is very simple and vague. Even a junior high school student can probably stand up and say a few words.
One after another, people stood up and followed the script, saying some seemingly reasonable clichés.
"Does anyone have any other ideas?"
Li Shurui subconsciously looked at the young man next to her.
As far as she knew, the other party was not only a well-known licker, but also had outstanding academic performance.
"Won't you tell me your opinion?"
She suddenly wanted to know other aspects of this young man.
This is also the reason why she chose to "accompany her to study" today.
“Yes, say a few words.”
Luo Peng also echoed.
“Forget it, I have nothing to say.”
Jiang Chen shook his head.
Luo Peng glanced at Li Shurui, who seemed a little disappointed. Regardless of the situation, Jiang Chen was not mentally prepared at all, so he grabbed his arm and raised it.
Jiang Chen’s expression changed and he quickly wanted to withdraw his hand, but it was too late.
“That boy.”
The professor has seen it.
“Come on!”
Luo Peng winked.
Everyone subconsciously turned their heads and saw Jiang Chen. They were all shocked, and then started whispering.
The professor saw some clues and looked at Jiang Chen with more curiosity.
With no way to retreat, Jiang Chen could only stand up stiffly.
"What's your name?"
"Jiang Chen."
"Are you Jiang Chen?"
The professor seemed to have heard of this name.
Jiang Chen forced out a smile and nodded.
The professor's expression became a little kinder. He had indeed heard of this name. Of course, it was not a reputation for being a licker. Naturally, the school leaders had paid more or less attention to a small number of the top students in the school.
“Tell me what you think.”
Looks from all directions focused on him.
The key is.
Li Shurui was still sitting next to him.
Jiang Chen, who was forced to go to Liangshan, had no choice but to say: "My classmates have already said the nature of the Internet, so I won't go into details. Regarding the logic of domestic Internet companies, I have some personal opinions. Opinion."
"Let's talk."
"To sum it up, it's just two words: burn money."
As soon as this was said, the whole audience was in an uproar!
After all, this is Professor Xiao’s class, which is sacred and solemn. How can it be said to be so superficial or even vulgar?
The middle-aged professor who enjoyed a certain reputation in the country pressed his hand to signal to keep quiet, and then looked at Jiang Chen meaningfully.
“Continue talking.”
Jiang Chen has never been an introvert. Since he had no choice, he said frankly: “In the past ten years, the country has experienced a total of eight money-burning wars. . The first time was the Thousand Groups War. 5,000 group buying websites led by the Yellow Army subsidized wildly. It was not uncommon to buy roast duck for one piece and have a feast for ten yuan. Consumers could hardly believe this pie falling from the sky. With the advent of the capital winter in the second year, 99% of the group buying platforms died of exhaustion. The Yellow Army got Ahri's buzzer-beating investment at the last moment, survived, and has dominated the world ever since.
The second time is the e-commerce war. Jingdong announced in a high-profile manner that major appliances will have zero gross profit for three years, targeting offline stores. Other home appliance giants also quickly joined the war. This war has caused a huge change in the Chinese people's online consumption concept, and the e-commerce market has welcomed the war. Explosive growth, unexpectedly a happy ending.
Then the online travel OTA war began. Ctrip, eLong, and Qunar kept fighting to the death. Crazy subsidies caused each company to burn billions of money. In the end, eLong and Qunar were unable to survive and raised the white flag to Ctrip. Ctrip, which suffered a tragic victory, was also left in ruins. In order to survive, it had to sell its body to marry a woman. There was no winner in this competition.
The fourth time is the online ride-hailing war. Didi relied on Penguin to smash taxi-hailing red envelopes, and Kuaidi and Uber quickly joined the war. The three giants burned through 30 billion in two years. At one time, taxis were cheaper than public transportation. In this situation, all the people are enjoying this taxi feast, even adults and aunts have to take a taxi back and forth when they go to the market to buy vegetables. Two years later, the three jealous giants shook hands and announced a merger with the help of capital. From then on, Didi became a super oligarch, dominating the world and monopolizing 90% of the travel market. ”
The entire lecture theater with more than two hundred people was almost silent, with only Jiang Chen’s calm voice echoing.
Ai Qian lowered her eyes, almost out of breath, unwilling to Look at that cheerful face.
Once upon a time, Jiang Chen attracted her with this kind of temperament, but I don’t know when she started to forget to appreciate the other person’s advantages.
< br>Professor Xiao listened with great interest
“The fifth time was the food delivery war. After receiving 1 billion in financing, Ele.me strongly led the food delivery market, but Ali Huang Yi Du Niang soon became the leader. Joining the battle, the four giants started a tug-of-war for crazy subsidies..."
From takeout to new retail to shared bicycles, Jiang Chen peeled off the cocoons and learned everything he knew.
Li Shurui knew all these things. Everyone is also a witness, but it is another thing to be able to say it so eloquently and in one breath.
Li Shurui raised her head slightly and looked up at the person next to her who looked so high-spirited. youth.
If it weren't for his reputation as a dog licker, such a boy would be very popular.
“The 8th time is a tens-billion subsidy war for e-commerce upstarts. Pinxixi relied on sinking the market, using a slashing strategy to rise rapidly, and reshuffled the e-commerce that had been stable for many years. Naturally, the other two industry giants couldn’t sit still and launched special editions to compete with Xixi. The three giants’ real money subsidies of tens of billions took turns to bombard them on 618 and Double 11, and there is still no winner.”
Jiang Chen became calmer and calmer as he spoke.
“Each of these eight wars burned astronomical amounts of wealth, but the evaporation of this wealth has become the driving force for social progress. Therefore, we don’t have to care about who wins and who loses in the future. Judging from past history, even if there are temporary victors, this war will never stop, because social progress will not stop."
"Pa bang bang..."
In the silence, Professor Xiao was the first to applaud.
From point to surface.
The applause gradually became like thunder.
