Chapter 1757 (2/2)
Li Mu nodded and said, ”I personally predict that if we push the hungry meal service to all prefecture level cities across the country, at least two million riders will be needed to meet the online meal demand of at least 50 million people. In this way, we will be able to create two million new jobs for the society based on space.”
”Two million?” Chen Jing was surprised and said, ”the quantity is too large. Are you sure?”
Li Mu said with a smile, ”at present, we still have some hardware technical barriers to break through. When we break through these barriers, I think the number of food delivery riders in China will not be less than five million, which should be gradually conquered in the next few years. We can wait and see.”
Later generations, there were disputes among hungry you, baidu takeout and meituan takeout. After hungry you bought Baidu takeout, the takeout market was basically dominated by hungry you and meituan.
According to statistics, at that time, there were at least 67 million riders delivering meals.
These 67 million people are really new jobs that the take out platform has contributed to the society. These jobs did not exist originally, but because people's lazy cancer has been cultivated by the platform, so finally millions of riders have been provided for the whole society. In fact, they are the users who need the delivery service.
However, now it is suddenly said to provide two million or even five million jobs. Even the well-informed CCTV reporters can't believe it. What is the concept of millions of jobs? The urban population of an ordinary prefecture level city is only one million, and the population of the whole city is only a few million.
Is a hungry person able to create jobs for millions of people?!
It's just incredible.
The pattern of CCTV journalists is very different from that of most journalists. It is not only a matter of unit level, but also of contact and the pattern of looking at problems.
Journalists from financial media, venture capital media and Internet media will not pay attention to how many jobs a company can bring to the society. Like most venture capital organizations, they only like to see data related to money and report content related to money.
For example, are you hungry? In their eyes, such companies first look at performance, platform flow, number of users, order quantity and development potential.
Then predict its approximate valuation, one year later, how long it can be financed, when it will be next financed, when it will be listed, where it will go to be listed, how much its market value will be after listing, how much investors can earn, and how much founders can earn.
But they don't see things from the perspective of people's livelihood.
They don't care how much contribution your product can make to the society in addition to making money;
how many jobs can you solve for the society? It has nothing to do with us, we only care about financial statements;
how much tax do we contribute to the country? It has nothing to do with us. We only care about how much your net profit can be achieved and how much progress can you bring to the society? It has nothing to do with us. We only care about how much money you can make.
However, CCTV reporters pay more attention to people's livelihood.
Although the current unemployment rate is not high, there are always some people who can't find a job, or some people's working income is too low.
For a small city, adding thousands of laid-off workers may cause a series of problems, such as people's livelihood, public security, city image, etc. However, if the same small city can add thousands of jobs, it will bring great improvement in people's livelihood, public security and other aspects.
Thinking of this, Chen Jing couldn't help but exclaim: ”President Li, if you are hungry, can you really bring 5 million jobs to the society, then in this regard, you have made a great contribution to the society. Please allow me to first represent millions of hungry riders in the future and express my heartfelt thanks to you.”
Li Mu said with a smile, ”only win-win cooperation between enterprises and society is the best business model. We do not want to be an enterprise that only takes from society, but does not have any return to society. On the contrary, we prefer to be a society that takes and uses.”
Said Li Mu: ”there are no more than three kinds of businessmen in the world. Ordinary businessmen, those who benefit others and others, whether they are Muye technology, Taobao, or the hungry online now, will try their best to become a business that benefits others and themselves.”
