Rebirth begins with e-commerce

When he got home, Luo Xiu came out after taking a shower and sat on the sofa and chatted with Guan Shiyu for a while.

"Have you noticed that I'm different?"

Guan Shiyu asked this, just wanted Luo Xiu to praise her.

In the view of Luo Xiu, who was deeply educated in the Internet in later generations, this is undoubtedly a matter of death.

If you answer honestly, you will probably die miserably.

While pretending to observe carefully, he quickly thought about the standard answers.

"I think your eyes are particularly beautiful today."

"Where is the best place?" Guan Shiyu continued to ask.

"The ancients described a beauties. If one point is added, it will be too fat, and if one point is reduced, it will be too thin. The same is true for your eyes, just two, one more is scary, and one less is scary."

Luo Xiu was talking nonsense seriously.

"Puff, are you praising people like this? Who doesn't have two eyes?"

"There are so many. Zhulong in Shanhai Jing only has one eye, Erlang Shen Yang Jian has three eyes, and you just happen to have two. It's really amazing."

"You have two eyes, which is also amazing."

"No, I have three eyes, one more mind than you."

"You mean I'm indifferent?"

Guan Shiyu rushed towards Luo Xiu like a cute cerebral axe.

After the Double Eleven event plan is confirmed, the most important thing next is to prepare stocks.

The value of hundreds of millions of goods is extremely stressful for a company that has just been established for more than two years.

If the event is not effective and the goods are stuck in the warehouse, it will be a disaster.

Those who participated in the operation of Double Eleven for the first time were trembling and afraid that they would not be able to sell it.

Of course, Luo Xiu was also worried that although most of his goods had a payment period of more than one month, and although he was owed debts, he didn't want to become a deadbeat at a young age.

Moreover, he is not a rich second generation and can never stand up again after falling down.

Fortunately, Taobao waiters in this era really hold the belief of serving merchants and growing up with merchants.

After they formulated a plan with the merchant, they were more worried than the merchant that they could not sell the goods.

There was even a waiter who said to Luo Xiu: "Mr. Luo, don't worry. If this Double Eleven is really not sold well, I will arrange a few more Juhuasuan next time and will definitely help you clear the goods out."

The waiter's words really touched Luo Xiu and also made him less worried.

Thinking of this, Luo Xiu called Ye Xiaomeng into the office:

"Squad leader, go and help me with the next notice. At 2 pm tomorrow, all dealers will come and have a meeting."

Ye Xiaomeng thought for a moment, "Time is a bit rushing, and some of the long journeys may not be able to arrive in time."

"Just tell them that if you don't come to participate, we will re-evaluate the cooperation between the two parties."

"Okay boss, I understand."

Luo Xiu learned from the last incident at Yucheng Electrical Appliance Factory. There are more than two suppliers in each category that supply them, so that he will not be restricted by these suppliers.

After there are too many suppliers, it is another huge problem for the management of suppliers.

Nowadays, many e-commerce companies do not pay attention to the supply chain system, and the supply chain department often plays the role of taking the blame in the company.

Good sales performance is the credit for operation and promotion. If the performance is poor, inventory is backlogged, and product quality problems occur, the supply chain will be held accountable.

Speaking of supply chain, Luo Xiu couldn't help but think of the future Apple CEO Cook.

After Cook took over as Jobs, his business model has been criticized by Apple fans.

In the hearts of Apple fans, Jobs is the soul of Apple. Under his leadership, Apple has created many great products.

His successor Cook doesn't seem to be good at making products, "just" a supply chain management expert.

Every time Apple fans in later generations release a new phone, they will sigh:

"If Master Qiao is still there, there will definitely be no raised camera."

"If Master Qiao is still there, there will definitely be no ugly bangs."

"If Master Qiao is still there, the screen will not become bigger and bigger."

"If Master Qiao is still there, the battery capacity...the battery capacity may be smaller. Then it's okay. Let's talk about the next question."

However, Cook, who has been living in the shadow of Jobs, has increased Apple's market value tenfold in ten years.

Jobs tried his best to shorten the inventory cycle from 2 months to 1 month.

After Cook took over, it reduced the inventory cycle to an astonishing 5 days, while Samsung's period took 21 days.

Fans of Apple don’t know about these results, nor do they care about them, they only care about bangs.

Luo Xiu has been working hard in the e-commerce industry for so many years and has seen countless popular e-commerce companies go bankrupt due to supply chain problems that have not been handled properly. He naturally understands its importance.

Double Eleven is a stress test for the supply chain department, and he has no choice but to ignore it.

The supply chain is also suitable for the barrel effect. Any problem at any link will drag down the overall efficiency.

Luo Xiu decided to start controlling the link from the source of the link, that is, the supplier, which is one of the reasons why he gathered all suppliers.

"Thank you all for taking the time to attend the meeting..."

Luo Xiu stood on the stage and personally presided over the supplier meeting.

The main content of the meeting was about stocking for this Double Eleven event. Luo Xiu made a PPT to introduce the goals and stocking rhythm of this Double Eleven event in detail.

After listening to this PPT, ordinary people may become hot and follow Luo Xiu regardless of the situation.

However, all people who live in the old world are not so easy to be brainwashed.

"Do you guys have any questions, you can ask them now."

After Luo Xiu finished speaking, no one spoke.

Of course they had an objection in their hearts, but they didn't want to be the first to stand up. After all, Luo Xiu can be said to be their biggest customer now.

"Mr. Liu seems to have something to say." Luo Xiu took the initiative to call out.

"That's right. Our factory has been giving Pinru a two-month payment period before, but the order quantity on Double Eleven is too large. If so much payment is suppressed and it will be a big challenge for our capital turnover. I hope Mr. Luo can understand our difficulties and pay 70% of the payment in advance, and the rest can be given slowly."

What he said was that the factory capital turnover was under pressure. In fact, it had been a two-month period before. This time, Luo Xiu had too many goods and was afraid that he would go but not return.

To put it bluntly, he just doesn't think that Luo Xiu can sell so many goods on Double Eleven.

After some people took the lead, other suppliers also spoke.

"We are acceptable for the account period, but we have to follow the usual price of goods. Mr. Luo, you are too harsh in the price this time, so we can't do it!"

"Our factory's orders are now scheduled to end of the year. If you want to take on your business, Mr. Luo, you may have to double the salary to arrange workers to work in three shifts."

...

Luo Xiu didn't say anything and listened to them silently.
