Chapter 536 Total Collapse
Internet business platforms such as group buying actually have some natural antagonism with merchants. After all, you have to take a commission from their sales, which is inevitable.
Furthermore, Pintuan has not settled payments to merchants, so it stands to reason that it will not receive support from any brand.
The most outrageous thing is that 80% of these brands have never cooperated with group sharing.
Especially the sweet milk tea.
I remember that when the group buying market entered a period of wild growth, everyone was trying their best to grab merchants. They fought hard to push against Tie Fist Wushuang. They once threatened to get out and almost got into a fight at the Xijing branch of Xitian.
At that time, Xitians legal representative Fang Xiaoxuan also publicly stated that the group-building behavior was too overbearing and rude.
It is said that in November, they suspended cooperation for a long time because of this matter.
But what is the situation now? Dianping was rejected by more than half of the well-known brands, but Jiang Qin seemed to know about it first.
Dont be anxious or confused yet, inform the Ministry of Commerce and call to verify.
Zhang Tao made a prompt decision and began to arrange tasks.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Tao and Chen Jiaxinyu immediately became energetic, then chased after him and stood in front of him.
After sitting down, the man looked around and found that there was no one around him. He was a little confused and seemed not to have expected this situation.
That Jiang Qin must have taken a look here when he came and found that there was no one in the first three rows, so he deliberately set off a smoke bomb. Damn it, what a dog!
Yes, our boss said that Burger King will always be a family-friendly partner of Dianping, but it seems that I came too early. Why didnt they come?
The person who called was a manager from the headquarters. Within a few words, Guan Deshan's smile gradually faded, until it finally froze on his face and disappeared without a trace.
Ummy wife is giving birth to a baby.
Maybe were still on the way. You sit down first and Ill find someone to make tea for you.
Hello, Manager Guan, Ive heard of you for a long time. Are you here to attend the signing conference?
Ah, Mr. Zhang and Mr. Chen, hello, Im Guan Deshan, the North China regional manager of Burger King.
Zhang Tao was a little surprised: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Guan Deshan picked up his mobile phone and walked outside in a panic, still mumbling, and his face was full of confusion.
After Zhang Tao finished speaking, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves gradually relaxed.
Um, Im sorry, Mr. Zhang, I have to go first.
"clear."
A somewhat fat man wearing a dark blue suit walked in, then looked around the venue, greeted a few people in the fourth row, and then walked straight to the right side of the first row.
But at this moment, Guan Deshan's cell phone suddenly rang. He said sorry to Zhang Tao and Chen Jiaxin, then turned around and answered the phone.
Hello, I am Zhang Tao, the boss of Dianping. This is our general manager Chen Jiaxin. Who are you?
That's right, it's still some time before the signing conference, and the people who come here are all small and small businesses. They come early to expand their contacts. Big brands like that will basically put on some airs, so it's not surprising to come a little late.
Yang Xueyu nodded and stepped out of the banquet hall. As a result, not long after he left, the door was pushed open again.
Okay boss, Ill make arrangements right away.
Also, send some red envelopes to the media and tell them to postpone the signing conference for now and dont let them come here to take photos.
Didnt we agree that we are like a family with Dianping, why did we suddenly say that we are really a family with Pintuan.
This is just like a foster child who starts calling mom and dad, but then turns around and someone comes out and says that you are the biological son of the opposite door. What a joke!
Guan Deshan quickly clicked on his Weibo and deleted all the Weibo posts that he had followed Dianping to criticize for the broken group funds. He wanted to be a clean person and do things with integrity!
Mr. Guan, Mr. Guan!
?)
Zhang Tao chased him a few steps away. Seeing Guan Deshan running faster and faster, his face began to look strangely embarrassing.
If only the brands in the first three rows had not arrived yet, he would have been lucky, but Guande Mountain's quick run was like a final blow, hitting him directly in the heart.
Its not a smoke bomb, something really happened.
Although I dont know how the other party did it, those partners who were invited in advance probably wont come. As soon as this thought occurred, Zhang Tao couldnt help but sweatdrops.
At the same time, Zhang Zhang hurried over from behind, came to Chen Jiaxin out of breath, and handed over the mobile phone he had been holding in his hand.
The screen is unlocked, and there is a photo of the front door of a branch of Xitian Milk Tea Shop. In the photo, there is a joint poster between Xitian and group grouping posted on the glass window of Xitian. It says that a new model is on the shelves and group grouping is available for purchase. .
Xitian and Pintuan co-branded?
Its not just sweetness, theres also
Hearing Zhang Lis gasping voice, Chen Jiaxin immediately looked back for photos.
Heli Lao, Grilled Fish with Green Pepper, Burger King, Mei Ye KTV, Dadi Cinema, Mr. Xianhui, Roadside Skewers, Senbon Foot Bath, Yang Kee, Kameku Sushi Incense, BC Steak Buffet, Vienna Hotel, Honami Ramen All major chain brands have posted co-branded posters with group tours in their stores, and even launched exclusive packages for them.
Among them, there are two photos about Dadi Cinema. The second one states that if you buy tickets in a group, you will get a small popcorn and Coke as an extra gift.
After seeing these photos, Chen Jiaxin's eyes darkened and she took three steps back before regaining her balance.
Jiang Qin used a refund and an advertisement to win the hearts of consumers all over the Internet, but it was in vain without cooperative merchants, but if all these brands went to group shopping...
With such a large number of consumers and the best merchants, the group shopping will be a huge hit tonight.
From a week ago, step by step, stir up public opinion, establish a personality, and finally co-branded with merchants, Chen Jiaxin felt as if something collapsed and fell directly on them.
But before she could take a breath, their boss suddenly started calling for security not far away.
Chen Jiaxin turned around and saw a large group of reporters and photographers pushing open the door and rushing in. They took wild shots of the scene, shooting forward, backward, and diagonally, taking 360-degree shots without blind spots.
Although the hotel security responded promptly, a reporter still rushed to the front desk and clicked the shutter wildly at the first three rows where there was no one.
Why are the reporters here? Where is Yang Xueyu, and where are the others!
Boss, I...Im here!
Zhang Tao's eyes turned red: "Didn't I tell you to give some red envelopes to the media, but don't let them come here yet? What on earth is going on?"
Yang Xueyu gasped and shook his head: "The red envelopes have been distributed, and people from the media have also agreed, but these reporters are not invited by us."
At this moment, a female reporter wearing a windbreaker suddenly rushed over with a microphone: "Mr. Zhang, it is said online that Dianping's funds are about to be cut off. Is this true?"
Before Zhang Tao could open his mouth, another reporter rushed over: "Mr. Zhang, half of the merchants at the signing conference did not come. Is there indeed a problem with Volkswagen's funds?"
Mr. Zhang, there are rumors online that Xitian cannot get payment from Dianping and will terminate the contract with Dianping. Is this true?
"boss Zhang"
Mr. Zhang, please answer the question.
Mr. Zhang, Dianping refuses to respond to the issue of refunds, and even rents out two luxurious halls to indulge in sex. Do you really have consumers at heart?
Zhang Tao felt that his ears were ringing, and the buzzing sound was constantly surrounding his ears. He could only hear the media reporters calling Mr. Zhang repeatedly.
Next to her, Chen Jiaxin was also surrounded by reporters. Facing the same problem, she opened her mouth but didn't know how to deal with it.
Why are there rumors on the Internet that Dianpings funds have been cut off? It's a group fight.
As Yang Xueyu said just now, Jiang Qin admitted that he had also prepared a group of experts to spread rumors that their funds were cut off.
But Dianping is actually not afraid of it, because mere rumors cannot create too much of a sensation.
Why are rumor-mongering groups successful? Its not because was so popular in the early stage.
But once the photos of the venue were leaked, some things were not that simple, because their venue was really half empty, and it was still the first three rows.
Volkswagen originally wanted to gather all the big brands, sign a fake agreement or something, and guide the remaining small and medium-sized merchants to side with Volkswagen. But if these photos are leaked, then Dianping will have problems, which will be regarded as true.
When merchants find out that big brands have left, how can they dare to trust you even if you can prove that you have sufficient funds?
Who knows what other major hidden dangers your company has? Otherwise, why would all the big brands run away?
This situation was something they had never thought of before...
At the same time, in the banquet hall next door, the seminar was about to begin. Jiang Qin was already seated, sometimes fiddling with his mobile phone, sometimes looking up in a daze, with no other emotions visible on his face.
Mr. Jiang is awesome. Dianping is trying to show off in his face, yet he can still be so calm.
Yes, the consumers problem has been solved, how can they solve the trust problem of merchants? Once the signing conference next door is held, it is estimated that more merchants will leave group shopping and invest in Dianping.
Time is too short. It is very rare for Mr. Jiang to forcefully pull public opinion to this point. If he can bring goodwill with consumers, he will definitely attract attention next time he starts a business.
Everyone was chatting away and had already begun arranging things for Jiang Qin to start his next business, and the time in the venue was also moving forward little by little.
Soon, the time came to five o'clock in the evening, which was already the start time of the seminar.
But what is strange is that there are two positions in front that have always been empty. One position belongs to Zhang Tao and the other belongs to Chen Jiaxin.
Two minutes left, where are the Dianping people?
The one who was there just now took a call and went out.
The time has come, you shouldnt be late.
