The huge momentum in Shanghai and Kyoto is just to cover up their actions in second-tier cities. What they want to do is surround the cities in the countryside.
“It’s a pity that this won’t work.”
Cheng Wei nodded: “Yes, Didi has only developed five cities from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. It will take at least one year to form an encirclement, but the market can no longer wait another year.”
Judging from Uber’s current subsidy strength, even if Bibi and Kuaidi join forces, they won’t be able to survive for half a year.
At that time, Uber, which has no opponent, will sink quickly. At that time, Didi’s encirclement has not yet formed and will be easily dispersed.
This is different from the group buying business.
Group buying requires negotiating with merchants one by one, and the timeline can be very long, but for taxi business, you only need to sign up taxi companies and fleets with operating qualifications, and basically control the market.
Uber burned a billion dollars a year ago. Judging from this desperate attitude, this is not difficult for him at all.
“Mr. Jiang may be restricted by the idea of doing group buying.”
“To be disrespectful, Mr. Jiang is actually not as good as people say. He only has this kind of method. He only exerts unexpected effects in group buying and takeout, so he appears to be very powerful.”
Cheng Wei nodded, sighed with regret, and then said goodbye to Chen Chuanxing.
At the beginning of the new year, he had a lot of dinner parties to organize, and the first people he wanted to invite were the leaders of the Shanghai Transportation Commission.
The road management in each city is under the jurisdiction of the transportation department. Although Bibi’s business is experiencing a serious decline, it still has to give its leaders a meal.
Drinking is unavoidable at parties, and Bibi is a start-up. Unlike Jiang Qin, a long-established business senior, Cheng Wei does not have his own driver, so he relies on Kuaidi for travel. This has been his habit since they met Kuaidi.
But what Cheng Wei didn’t expect was that as soon as he arrived at his destination, he saw Jiang Qin at the door.
“Mr. Jiang?”
Cheng Wei was a little surprised: “I’ve heard about your name for a long time, and today I finally met you in person!”
Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment: “Who are you?”
“Oh, let me introduce myself. I am the CEO of Bibi. My name is Cheng Wei.”
“Beep? I know, hello, Mr. Cheng!”
Jiang Qin suddenly changed his one hand to both hands and held his hand tightly: “You have worked hard these past six months, leave the rest to me.”
Cheng Wei: “?”
“It’s okay if you don’t understand. You will understand. Oh, by the way, remember to come and drink my little princess’s full moon wine in the second half of the year.”
Cheng Wei looked slightly confused as he watched Jiang Qin wave goodbye to him and go out to get into a Maybach.
