Chapter 1583

"Nan Xiang, why didn't you come back yesterday? You didn't answer your phone either."

In the apartment outside the school, Nan Xiang had just opened the door and heard Tang Wanru speak, "Is it because Xicheng was locked inside for too long, and you guys..."

"What are you saying, I just had something to do yesterday and went home."

Nan Xiang went slowly to get a glass of water, sat on the sofa, and looked at the three pairs of burning eyes, "What's wrong? Why are you all looking at me?"

Tang Wanru curled her lips: "Nan Xiang, you don't know how to lie at all; your legs can't even close when you walk, it's obvious that..."

"Oh my, Tang Wanru." It was Lin Xiao who couldn't stand Tang Wanru's mouth first, "Can you not say these tiger-wolf words that make people get goosebumps all over."

"What's wrong? You three dare to do it, but don't let me say it?" Tang Wanru shouted, "Seriously, when you're intimate with your boyfriends, each one screams louder than the other, but as soon as you put on your pants, you become ladies?"

"You, you, you..." Lin Xiao pointed at Tang Wanru, speechless.

"You still don't know her, she's just envious, jealous, and hateful." Gu Li glanced at her and said the cold, hard truth.

"I don't believe I can't find a tall, handsome, and physically fit boyfriend."

"Then I wish you success." Gu Li was indifferent, sarcasm maxed out.

Nan Xiang drank her water steadily, thinking the fire had already shifted.

However, just as she felt relieved, Gu Li said "Oh": "Nan Xiang, I remember you weren't wearing this outfit yesterday, right?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao also noticed this, and she looked Nan Xiang up and down: "Seems like I've never seen you wear it before, did you buy it new? When did you go shopping? You didn't call us."

"I saw it on the way home, felt it was good, so I bought it. No way, is there anything to make a fuss about?" Nan Xiang looked very speechless, "You guys are really too boring. Gu Li, aren't you going to speculate on stocks? Lin Xiao, aren't you going to find an internship? Wanru, aren't you going to do summer training to improve your grades? Why are you so idle, staying at home and not going out?"

"Isn't it because we're worried about you, without any news at all." Gu Li complained, "If you hadn't come back before tonight, we were planning to call the police. Seriously, why didn't you turn on your phone when you went home?"

Nan Xiang explained: "Didn't it rain yesterday? I got a bit wet and felt uncomfortable, so I went to sleep when I got home. Who knew the phone would be out of power and shut down long ago? Didn't I reply to your messages when I woke up today? Can you not interrogate me like a criminal? As if I committed some great crime, seriously."

"Alright, alright, just know what you're doing." Lin Xiao waved her hand.

"Thank you for your concern."

Nan Xiang blinked her big eyes, her gaze swept across the faces of her three good sisters, and she looked emphatically at Gu Li...

Gu Li didn't pay attention, fiddling with her phone and sending messages...

Wang Yan, relaxed in body and mind, arrived at the company and harvested Lin Quan's eye-roll.

The bastard things he did couldn't be explained by reason, and right and wrong couldn't be distinguished, so he just continued to be a bastard with peace of mind. He didn't give Lin Quan an explanation, nor an apology.

Brother Biao's words have their own truth; you just slowly get along with me, if you can't get along well, find the reason yourself...

Wang Yan began his daily handling of company affairs.

Currently, the company can be called thriving, with data getting better day by day. With Wang Yan as an internet celebrity, constantly advertising and drawing traffic every day, users are increasing day by day.

And with the increase in users, the categories of reviews are also constantly being perfected.

Someone went to a restaurant, felt the restaurant was good, and turned back to leave a review on Selection Life.

Someone went to watch a movie, felt it was really trash, and after returning home, found that someone had already posted a low-score review on Selection Life targeting the movie, outputting a long article angrily spraying the director, actors, etc.

Someone bought a piece of clothing, and it opened a seam after not wearing it for two days, and the after-sales service wasn't very good either. They opened a rating on Selection Life and gave low scores to the product, store, brand, etc.

Someone bought a mobile phone, the user experience was very bad, and the after-sales service was very poor. So on Selection Life...

Someone went to see a doctor, someone went traveling, someone bought a house or car, someone did renovations, someone targeted celebrity idols, someone started commenting sharply on ancient figures, someone started beauty pageants, someone started choosing people's heroes...

With the gradual enrichment of categories, disputes naturally arose.

Because the evaluation of a thing is multi-dimensional, and also includes the subjective factors of consumers, there was a big discussion surrounding how to ensure fairness. Regarding this, Wang Yan directly published a pile of IPs that brushed good reviews and bad reviews, and published the public relations of other brands towards Selection Life.

After this matter passed, what followed was numerous brands suing Selection Life, saying that Selection Life infringed on their reputation and commercial reputation, wanting Selection Life to take down the ratings of products under related brands, and make related compensation.

This is a society where consumers cannot say it's bad, and when problems arise, they solve the person first. Wang Yan naturally didn't indulge this bad habit; instead, he used this matter to market, attracting more people to register and use Selection Life.

Also influenced by these, the growth rate of Selection Life's users was quite fast, and it had long since broken through one million.

At the same time, Selection Life had also begun to make money, and the main money-making channels were two pieces.

One is the takeout order forwarding business. Eating is a major event in life; besides breakfast, the two most difficult problems in people's day-to-day life are what to eat for lunch and what to eat for dinner.

Undoubtedly, the appearance of Selection Life gave more people a choice. Real reviews from users naturally make people want to try it. For those with takeout, within the delivery range, they naturally jump directly to order.

In the current chaotic battle and competition, the unit price of order forwarding is still quite considerable. The accounts receivable have already covered a considerable part of the expenditure, and the company is actually about to be profitable. From this, it can also be seen how ruthless takeout is.

Another money-making channel is other shoes and clothing, travel accommodation, daily necessities, digital 3c, beauty, etc., all kinds of things. As long as there is a rating on Selection Life, as long as it is sold on e-commerce websites, it is all included.

People want to buy computers, mobile phones, etc., and browse in the relevant categories of Selection Life, naturally there are various product reviews, as well as related evaluations, etc. And among related products, Selection Life connects to e-commerce websites, naturally obtaining the prices of the same products on different platforms for comparison.

With this comparison, users will naturally choose the cheapest one. And regardless of whether the transaction is completed or not, guiding a user over naturally brings a share of traffic revenue. If the user places an order and consumes, the rebates for these high-profit products are naturally quite considerable.

Wang Yan then took advantage of the situation to take a part of the rebate to do activities, subsidizing some money back to the consumers who placed orders, which can be considered as everyone benefiting.

It is precisely because of this that Selection Life has received more pursuit, and every day there are people waving money to find Wang Yan. Similarly, there are also a lot of people copying Selection Life.

Because so far, it has completely demonstrated the profit model of this Selection Life website. Selection Life is only one step away from making big money.

That is to have its own supply channel. Just take the results currently achieved by the website and find head brands with better reviews to talk about distribution. It is bound to be able to get a favorable price.

In this way, selling goods directly to consumers, direct shipment from the manufacturer, without having to stock much goods, without warehousing costs, naturally earns more than forwarding orders to e-commerce platforms.

At the same time, the scope of operation is also wider than e-commerce platforms, and it can get involved in anything, and the influence is also greater. Currently, it's just lacking money, not enough to expand rapidly...

However, facing so many temptations, Wang Yan firmly refused them all. After all, the money in hand can still be spent, plus the money earned, currently the company doesn't have too much financial pressure. Steady and steady, continuing to do it is the right way.

Financing too early, raising too little money, and the company's valuation being too low is not cost-effective. Financing too late, the money in the company's account can't support the company's operation, then it's even more looking for death. President Ma has a saying, financing should be done when the company's situation is good.

When it comes down to it, it's still necessary to have a considerable grasp of one's own company's situation, the market situation, and future expectations. Only in this way can profits be maximized.

As for those other companies that copy, Wang Yan naturally didn't take it to heart; he always believes that people's conduct won't disappoint him. When there are no opponents, it doesn't matter. But when there are opponents, if you make trouble for yourself, then you are really dead.

As long as Wang Yan follows his own rhythm, he can succeed.

Not to mention that he also has technology that seems to have no influence but is actually quite important. How to identify review control, how to determine who is a real person, how to ensure the fairness of ratings, this is the foundation of Selection Life. Consumers cannot be disgusted, and at the same time, authority must be established.

Having achieved this, what follows is intelligence that understands users better, which is consumerism's precise encirclement and hunting of consumers.

A better point of Wang Yan compared to other businessmen crowned with the name of entrepreneur is that he lets consumers know where the money is spent, and he gives consumers real things...

After lunch, Wang Yan went to the stairwell to smoke, and just happened to see Gu Yuan also smoking heavily.

"Oh my, isn't this Big Idiot Gu? Why, coming to smoke in person?"

Gu Yuan glared at Wang Yan, threw the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it fiercely: "You don't need to be smug, my company will definitely be able to do it, definitely better than yours."

"Selling computers? I'll collect them in batches." Wang Yan said with a smile.

And so Gu Yuan turned and left, really unable to stand Wang Yan's teasing.

It's been more than a month since starting the business, and until now, the website has just been finished, and it's only been a few days since promotion started. However, letting Gu Yuan go out to distribute flyers and pull people, he couldn't let go of his face. He could only spend money to find part-time people to promote outside, but he didn't have the corresponding experience, and those part-time people fooled him, and the conversion was quite low.

This is still with his platform having content, all copied from Selection Life's categories. Of course, it's just copying the skin; Gu Yuan doesn't understand the website's operating logic, and those technologies are also not there.

At the same time, Gu Yuan didn't hire few people; Selection Life raised money once, with one million users, and it was only heading towards forty people, but Gu Yuan found part-time students from school, as well as social people, adding up to more than fifty people.

The salary he offered wasn't low, plus the money for buying equipment, plus the money for finding people to promote, plus the money for food and drink, after more than a month, he had already spent nearly one million.

Currently, the company has no development, and the whole person is worrying...

"Didn't you go to smoke, so fast?" Gu Li was eating a boxed lunch, concerned about Gu Yuan.

"Don't mention it, just lit it and took a puff when I met that Wang fellow."

Seeing Gu Li's worried look, Gu Yuan said unhappily, "Why are you looking at me like that? I'm not stupid, knowing I can't beat him, and still go find trouble with him face to face? Isn't this just putting out the cigarette and coming back."

"That's fine, I'm really afraid you'll be stubborn and get beaten again."

"Hey... seriously, who knew starting a business was so difficult. If I had known, I wouldn't have done it, but now that I've spent so much money, I'm not reconciled to closing it."

Gu Yuan sat on the Herman Miller ergonomic chair, complaining about losing money.

Gu Li comforted: "It's okay, anyway, the money that should be spent has been spent, and there's no place to spend big money besides labor, so we can support it for another two or three months no matter what. Let's think of a way together, maybe there will be a turning point."

"It's difficult." Gu Yuan said hungrily, "I really admire that Wang fellow a bit now; he looks so relaxed, and without much effort, he achieved what he has now, unlike us, who are busy and chaotic, and can't do anything right..."

"Gu Yuan! Not allowed to say such discouraging words. You have to believe in yourself; since you've done it, you must do it to the best, you must achieve results!"

Gu Li said, "Wang Yan has done many evil deeds, someone will definitely clean him up."

Gu Yuan shook his head and said: "Our family's business has been affected, lost a lot of money, you know this, right?"

"I heard the news long ago, what's wrong?"

"My mom said she suspects Wang Yan did something, I didn't believe Wang Yan had such ability at all before, but now I believe it a bit, maybe it really is Wang Yan making trouble!"

Gu Li frowned: "Your family is a listed company, he is a poor student, doesn't know anyone, how could he do such a thing. It must be your mom who is old and confused, suspicious."

"No, I have to go find him and ask."

"Are you stupid, even if it was him, would he admit it?" Gu Li was speechless, "Even if it was him, he admitted it, what can you do to him? Don't be stupid, Gu Yuan, the most urgent matter now is to think about how to get the company up and running. As for Wang Yan... don't worry, he won't be arrogant for long."

"How?"

"Didn't I just say, he has done many evil deeds, someone will definitely not like him."

"Who? Xicheng? That's a small hooligan, he was long since scared by that Wang fellow."

"How would I know? And, don't mention that trash to me."

Gu Li rolled her eyes, expressing her dissatisfaction...
