Rebirth of the Evil Life

Chapter 39 Online trading platform

In August 1999, two Harvard Business School graduates, Shao Yibo and Tan Haiyin, founded eBay in Shanghai, China.

In January 2000, according to the results of the fifth “Statistical Survey of Internet Development in China” conducted by ic, eBay received the highest number of votes among domestic auction sites, and eBay became the most popular auction site in China.

In July 2000, eBay launched a personal online shop service.

This is not the information in Lin Feng’s mind, but the information found on the Internet. After reviewing several offices found by Cheng Peijia, Lin Feng, who was all light and calm, decided to fix one of the 120-square-meter residential houses. After entrusting a decoration company to decorate and supervised by Cheng Peijia, Lin Feng sat in front of a computer for the first time in six months.

As soon as I went online, I found information about eBay’s launch of a personal online shop service.

EBay, once the No. 1 of China’s online transactions, was later surpassed by Taobao because of successive scandals such as leaking customer information and fraudulent credit rating, and the latter eventually became the No. 1 of China’s online transactions, accounting for China Online. 80% of the trading market share. It is said that the number of transactions per day is over one million, and the cumulative amount is 400 million yuan.

By the way, I can open a personal online store to promote my upcoming Chinese version of CS Counter-Strike. –Lin Feng snapped his fingers.

Apply for an account, create a user name, upload a copy of the ID card, and then wait for review.

However, at this time, eBay only provides a trading platform. After both parties of the transaction have reached a preliminary transaction online, they have to contact offline to determine the payment method of each other. This is a test of character. If you have a good character, you can buy good-quality and low-priced goods; if you have a bad character, you can give you a bad product that is still good, and some will go directly to the people.

For online transactions at this time, since Alipay and other third-party transaction credit platforms have not yet been launched, there is no guarantee in terms of the integrity system and safety at all.

Maybe I can also build an online trading platform now. With the future trend of eBay, I can definitely surpass it to become the No. 1 online trading platform in China. —— Lin Feng silently calculated the feasibility of it.

In the initial stage, only one server is needed, 10m optical fiber is opened, and one website maintainer and one data manager are enough. After the future development and the number of users increase, it is natural to expand the server and bandwidth.

After careful consideration, Lin Feng decided that this plan was feasible, but he needed to register another network company.

what! this is…….

When Lin Feng was about to go offline, he accidentally glanced at another financial news.

auzw.com In April 2000, China National Petroleum Corporation went public overseas and signed a joint venture agreement with major Western oil companies such as Shell, Exxon, and bp Amoco to operate 2,000 gas stations. Agreement in exchange for its capital contribution as a strategic investor.

Lin Feng remembered that Sinopec Corp. will also be listed overseas at the end of the year. The two most profitable oil companies in China went public overseas in the same year, and then launched a plan to acquire gas stations across the country. Many people made a small profit because of this.

But even if the acquisition seems to be in 2004, it is still early, and it is not in a hurry now. When Sinopec and PetroChina have begun their national acquisition plan, they will strike a deal harder. The two monopolies have made so much money for the people, and it is not an exaggeration to seek justice for the people on their own behalf.

After finalizing his plan, Lin Feng approached Accountant Zhang and calculated the company’s current fund balance.

750,000. After establishing Lin’s Catering and Entertainment Co., Ltd., six “killing clubs” and buying a house for his mother’s 200,000 yuan, Lin Feng still has 750,000 yuan in cash left.

Among them, the 150,000 budget will be reserved for the first barbecue city in the Lanzhou Special Zone; 100,000 will be reserved for the tea processing factory, including 100,000 yuan of working capital, and Lin Feng can actually use about 400,000 yuan. However, for my future catering plan, I still have to set aside 300,000 start-up funds, so that the most I can use is 100,000 yuan.

In the city of Chu in August 2000, the telecommunications sector had begun to prepare broadband services, and adsl had begun to appear in the telecommunications sector’s advertising campaigns. However, at this time, the initial installation fee for a 512k bandwidth home installation is 308 yuan, a caller ID phone and a cat are sent, the annual network usage fee is 600 yuan, and the monthly time limit is 200 hours.

As for the optical fiber in Internet cafes, due to line problems, most of the Internet cafes are still on the sidelines except for the installation of optical fibers in several Internet cafes near the telecommunications room in the urban area. After all, at this time, LAN games are still in the world. Although online games have appeared in the Stone Age, which will be all the rage in the future, they have not yet become popular in Chu City.

The Age of Empires and StarCraft are now the absolute mainstream. The real outbreak of online games was after the emergence of the legendary Korean kimchi game. But that is also a year later.

In order to facilitate the opening of the optical fiber, Linfeng rented a 100-square-meter residence in the city center near the telecommunications machine room for 800 yuan. After a simple decoration, Linfeng’s first network company was born here.

Lin Feng recruited a recent graduate of network information major, and also recruited an archivist, who is temporarily in charge of daily management. After all, the Internet company has only been established, and there is almost nothing worth busying in the early stage.

Later, I hired a network company to help design the web page, and then purchased a server for 20,000 yuan, opened a 10m exclusive optical fiber installation fee of 20,000 yuan, and an annual optical fiber usage fee of 60,000 yuan.

Lin Feng knew that this was a definite loss in the initial stage, but with Lin Feng’s current assets and company size, he could still bear a loss of more than 100,000 yuan a year. As long as you persist until you reach a certain amount, it will definitely be a huge financial gain. Not only can the advertising revenue be made full of money, but also the daily cash stagnation of the transaction volume can bring a large amount of capital turnover to Lin Feng.

Of course, it is impossible now. The country has not yet launched online banking services, only after the launch of online banking services, and then purchase third-party credit platforms such as Alipay, all this is no longer a dream. Although this method of collecting money does not have as much money as a listed company, it wins because it is safe and fair.

As for the company name, Lin Feng directly misappropriated the name and domain name of Taobao.com, which came out only three years later. , This is the international domain name of Linfeng Internet. However, although the website has been established, no merchants have joined for the time being. While letting the two of his staff go to major forums to post advertisements, Lin Feng became the first member of his online trading platform to open a shop.

Pre-sale of the world’s number one online battle first-person perspective shooting game-CS Counter-Strike, will be released on September 15. Pre-order and book as soon as possible. ——In the most conspicuous position on Taobao.com, Lin Feng puts the most conspicuous advertisement for his products.
