  Cyrus expects to achieve operating income of 33.50 billion yuan to 35 billion yuan in 2022, an increase of 100.38% to 109.36% year-on-year. While revenue doubled, Cyrus’ net profit loss also expanded.

  In 2022, Sailis is expected to achieve a net profit loss of 3.50 billion yuan to 3.95 billion yuan, the loss expanded by 91.90% to 116.57%; deducting non-net profit is expected to lose 3.85 billion yuan to 4.30 billion yuan, the loss expanded by 37.83% to 53.94%.

  In a single quarter, Sailis’ fourth-quarter operating income is expected to be 10.38 billion yuan to 11.88 billion yuan, an increase of 97.04% to 125.51% year-on-year; net profit attributable to the parent is expected to lose 825 million yuan to 1.275 billion yuan, and the loss expanded by 11.44% to 72.21% year-on-year.

  Sailis said that in 2022, the price of raw materials such as chips and power batteries rose sharply, resulting in an increase in production costs; although the sales volume achieved continuous positive growth in the first three quarters of 2022, but due to the multi-point outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, it affected the number of passengers entering the store and the development of marketing activities. At the same time, it affected many links such as supply, logistics, production, etc. Product production and sales did not meet expectations, and the investment in fixed assets in the early stage was large, and the depreciation and amortization expenses were high.

  In addition, Sailis focuses on the field of smart electric vehicles. With the growth of sales of Sailis new energy vehicles, the company’s operating income has increased significantly by 100.38% to 109.36% compared with the same period last year. The company’s gross profit margin has increased compared with the same period last year. During the reporting period, the quarterly gross profit margin has increased positively.

  In April 2019, Cyrus released the first new electric vehicle SF5. In 2019, Cyrus smart electric vehicles have begun to be gradually put into production, and Chongqing Jinxin Equity Investment Fund increased its equity in Jinkang New Energy Vehicles. The impact of the smart electric vehicle sector on the net profit attributable to shareholders of listed companies in 2019 decreased by 940 million yuan.

  In 2019, the net profit of Cyrus returned to the parent was still 66.7215 million yuan. In 2020, the net profit of Cyrus returned to the parent achieved the first loss since listing, and the loss reached 1.729 billion yuan.

  In the three years from 2020 to 2022, the cumulative net profit of Sailis returned to the parent company was 7.053 billion yuan to 7.503 billion yuan.

  In July 2022, the Chinese name of Cyrus was changed from "Chongqing Xiaokang Industrial Group Joint Stock Company" to "Cyrus Group Joint Stock Company", and the company’s securities abbreviation was changed from "Xiaokang Shares" to "Cyrus", showing the outside world its determination to deepen the field of smart new energy vehicles.

  Huawei is playing an important role in Cyrus’ foray into new energy vehicles.

  AITO is a high-end new energy vehicle brand released by Cyrus. Huawei provides support for Cyrus’ AITO brand from the whole process of product design, industrial chain management, quality management, software ecology, user operation, brand marketing, and sales channels.

  The AITO Wenjie M5 is the first intelligent electric drive SUV launched after the launch of the AITO brand, and was delivered in batches in March.

  Capital Securities reported on January 11 that the price of Tesla Model Y after the price reduction is 260,000 yuan – 360,000 yuan range, which is expected to intensify competition with NIO ET5, JK 001, BYD Tang EV, and M5 EV.

  On January 13, AITO announced a price cut for some models, making it the first automaker to follow up after Tesla announced the price cut.

  Specifically, the price of the M5 EV after the adjustment is 259,800 yuan, and the price of the M7 after the adjustment is 289,800 yuan. The price reduction of all models is 28,800 – 30,000 yuan. The price reduction will have an impact on the gross profit margin of Sailis.

  According to the performance forecast, Sailis’ gross profit margin increased quarter-on-quarter during the reporting period.

  According to previous financial reports, from Quarter 1 to the third quarter of 2022, the gross profit margin of Cyrus sales increased from 6.68% to 12.72%.

  Caitong Securities released a research report saying that Tesla’s price-for-sales strategy will intensify competition in the new energy automobile industry, and marginal brands may be cleared, and industry concentration is expected to increase. At the same time, new energy OEMs and upstream parts companies may face pressure to reduce costs.

One arrow and nine stars were successfully launched! Commercial space satellite + "national team" gold medal rocket combination celebrates the Dragon Boat Festival

  At 12:00 on June 2, 2022, Beijing time, our country used the Long March II C carrier rocket at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center to successfully launch the Geely Constellation 01 group of satellites into the air, 9 satellites successfully entered the predetermined orbit, and the launch mission was a complete success.

  This mission is the second commercial space launch mission of the Xichang launch site this year, successfully assisting Geely Satellite to enter space for the first time. It officially opened the prelude to the high-density launch of the Xichang launch site this year. The rhythm of an average of 2 missions per month will continue until the end of the year, and the annual mission has entered a comprehensive period. As the last launch before the Dragon Boat Festival, Xichang astronauts used their success to offer their blessings for the Dragon Boat Festival.

The Long March 2C rocket that carried out this mission

  The satellite launched this time was independently developed by Zhejiang Time and Space Daoyu Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Time and Space Daoyu Company"), a subsidiary of Geely Technology Group. It is mass-produced through the deep integration of aerospace manufacturing and automobile manufacturing technology implementation. The design life is 5 years. The satellite manufacturing efficiency and system reliability have reached the industry-leading level. The satellite is mainly used for the research and verification of related technologies such as future travel services for smart connected cars, car-machine/mobile phone satellite interaction, etc., to support relevant marine environmental protection public welfare actions.

  This is the first time that our country’s commercial aerospace company has successfully launched a mass-produced commercial satellite at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in the form of "nine satellites with one arrow".

  The Long March II C carrier rocket used in this launch was developed by the China Academy of Launch Vehicle Technology (hereinafter referred to as the "Rocket Institute") under the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. It is the Long March II C rocket that once again won the sky after 13 days, and it is also its fourth space launch in 2022.

  This mission is the 422nd flight of the Long March series of carrier rockets.

Xichang Satellite Launch Center

  ChangdiC sets a new record for multiple stars with one arrow

  The Long March II C rocket successfully made its maiden flight in September 1982 and was awarded the "Gold Medal of High-quality Long March II C carrier rocket" by the then China Aerospace Industry Corporation in 1998. It was the first "Gold Medal rocket" in our country. The rocket is famous for its reliable quality and strong adaptability. It can be launched from three launch sites in Taiyuan, Jiuquan and Xichang.

  According to Xing Jianwei, deputy director of the overall design of the rocket model of the Rocket Institute, the number of satellites launched by the Long Second C rocket in a single mission set a new record.

  Previously, in October 2018, the Long Two C rocket launched a Sino-French ocean satellite and seven small satellites; in March 2022, the Long Two C rocket launched six communications satellites and one small satellite. The launch of the Long-2C rocket completed the deployment of all 9 satellites in an orbital plane. More importantly, the Long-2C rocket is in the stage of parallel design of multiple new missions, parallel propulsion of multiple launch sites, and parallel production of multiple product lines. The model team always takes "an unbearable sense of urgency, a sense of crisis, a sense of responsibility, and a sense of mission that cannot be stopped" as the purpose of action, ensuring quality and launching on time, demonstrating the excellent economy of the Long-2C rocket, its profound technical heritage and reliable performance capabilities.

  Under the current severe and complex epidemic situation, the ultra-high density launch of three parallel launches and four simultaneous work has brought tremendous pressure and challenges to the model team. The rocket development team closely focused on the theme of "ensuring success". Through advance planning, holding front and rear video conferences, personnel concurrent posts, etc., and in-depth implementation of the post integration system and other measures, the launch site personnel were scientifically and rationally allocated under the condition of "difficult entry", and at most one person and four posts were highly integrated. Finally, the mission was successfully completed.

  The Xichang launch site kicked off this year’s high-density launch

  It is understood that this mission is the second commercial space launch mission of the Xichang launch site this year, officially kicking off the high-density launch of the Xichang launch site this year. The rhythm of an average of two missions per month will continue until the end of the year, and the annual mission has entered a comprehensive period.

  In recent years, our country’s commercial aerospace industry has continued to grow and develop. In the blue ocean of China’s aerospace industry, there are not only "giant ships" of the "national team", but also many private enterprises competing to rise, forming a new situation of competition.

  Back in time, in November 1984, the Xichang Satellite Launch Center officially opened to the outside world, undertaking international commercial satellite launch business, becoming the first space launch center in our country to open to the outside world. From "Long March Rocket + International Commercial Satellite" to "Long March Rocket + my country’s Private Commercial Satellite", since the Xichang Satellite Launch Center first carried out the "Asia No. 1" commercial space launch mission 32 years ago, generations of Xichang astronauts have explored and formed a variety of space commercial service models such as commercial launch, carrying services, whole-satellite export, and "heaven and earth integration". The road of opening up to the outside world is getting wider and wider, helping the country to accelerate the formation of a new pattern of the space industry, and continue to promote the vigorous development of international and domestic commercial space.

  Standing in front of the "big red screen" celebrating the success of the mission, Xichang astronauts said one after another: "This successful launch has a significant demonstration effect on commercial applications. In the future, we will comprehensively enhance modern space launch capabilities, strive to build a world-class space launch site, and create more Chinese speed, Chinese altitude, and Chinese miracles."

  Geely Automobile builds satellites, China’s commercial aerospace enters the fast lane

  The satellite launched this time was independently developed by China’s private commercial aerospace company, Spacetime Daoyu Company, a subsidiary of Geely Technology Group.

  According to the company, the nine satellites launched this time leave the factory from the company’s Taizhou Satellite Super Factory. As the first satellite mass production plant in China that deeply integrates aerospace manufacturing and automobile manufacturing capabilities, it can fully learn from the large-scale mass production manufacturing model of the automotive industry such as intelligence and automation, and can provide commercial satellite manufacturing and AIT (final assembly integration and testing) services.

  Spacetime Daoyu said that the successful launch of the "Nine Stars in One Arrow" mass-produced satellite into orbit marks that China’s commercial aerospace industry has begun to take shape and will enter the fast lane of industrial development.

  Wang Yang, CEO and chief scientist of Spacetime Daoyu, introduced: "Policies, market demand and other favorable factors are driving our country’s commercial aerospace industry from the manufacturing-driven 1.0 era to the application-driven 2.0 era. Spacetime Daoyu has built a future travel constellation to create a’high-precision space-time information system integrated with heaven and earth ‘, focusing on mining user requests, and by providing commercial satellite manufacturing and AIT services, high-precision location-based services integrated with heaven and earth, space-based communication services, and remote sensing AI services, it has successively developed market segments in satellite manufacturing, smart travel, consumer electronics, unmanned systems, smart cities, environmental monitoring and other fields, and has achieved profitability in each market segment."

  Space-time Daoyu Company said that relying on the support of Geely’s huge travel ecosystem, its integrated high-precision space-time information service will not only extend to cars, but also establish a rich consumer product chain and characteristic business system with the help of multi-dimensional carriers such as mobile phones, flying cars, drones, and commercial vehicles in the future.

Memory across time – 40 years of Volkswagen in China

[Introduction: In the spring of 1984, after graduating from Jiaotong University at the age of 28, Yan Guangming became a reporter for China Automobile News. In the following decades, Yan Guangming has been paying attention to the changes in the automotive industry. He believes that the history of automobiles in China is actually half the history of Chinese cars. In 40 years in China, from the beginning of the tide to the surging tide, Volkswagen has always been the leader of automobile breakthroughs and innovations, promoting the continuous progress of China’s automotive industry.]

Cars are not just dreams, but also social expressions

Shanghai, as the cradle of modern Chinese industry, has always harbored an automotive dream. The wonderful chemical reaction generated by the encounter between Volkswagen and SAIC is not only a historical memory, but also a daily routine today. Volkswagen connects the past and the present, leading the transformation and development of the industry. When it comes to China’s reform and opening up, it is inseparable from Volkswagen’s integration. The cooperation between Volkswagen and SAIC can be called an ice-breaking move for China’s automobile industry. It is also the pioneer of Volkswagen’s integration into China and the creation of a new era of the car industry. The localization of cars provides a new development model for the construction of China’s car industry.

From working with cities to working with countries

If the cooperation with SAIC opened the prelude to Volkswagen’s development in China, then the cooperation with SAIC has put Volkswagen at the forefront again. In 1991, Volkswagen took the lead in partnering with China FAW, the eldest son of the Chinese auto industry, to establish a joint venture production base for 150,000 cars. In December of the same year, the first product Jetta was assembled and rolled off the production line. History has proved that from the popularity of family cars to luxury car manufacturing, Jetta and its contribution rate in China exceeded the car itself, rooted in daily life, became a collective memory, and witnessed the changes of the times.

If you don’t succeed in China, you will lose in the world

When the wheel of history turned to the track of new energy, Volkswagen took the lead in transforming into a software-driven enterprise. And tilted China’s new energy development and research and development to China. Use Volkswagen’s R & D center to drive intelligent transformation to the deep water area. Volkswagen’s strategic layout in new sources has set a new model for the transformation and development of traditional auto companies. After 40 years of integration with the Chinese market, this sedan market, which started almost from scratch, is empowering Volkswagen with intelligence and helping it take the lead in the new round of development.

Review:

The history of Volkswagen in China is actually half the history of Chinese cars. Volkswagen stands on the mast of the times to look at the industry and the changes in the world. In China for 40 years, Volkswagen has been forging new milestones in China, for China, and for the world. In the future, the car looks at Volkswagen, shouldering a new historical mission, and it will continue to create new miracles that will impress the world on this hot land of the East.

III. Core competitiveness analysis

On the basis of continuous innovation in Internet banking business and technology, combined with the transformation of bank intelligent outlets and the development of comprehensive application fields of bank data services in recent years, the company’s core competitiveness has been upgraded to digital banking innovation. Internet banking + big data + offline intelligent network transformation = digital banking structure, the company’s main business has been upgraded from Internet banking to digital banking.

(A) a deep research and development foundation

In 1999, the company took the lead in using Java application server technology in the Chinese mainland and implemented the first online banking system. The company has independently developed the NetBank2000 technical framework, PowerEngine, MADP, and Pisces distributed technology platform, and has realized true multi-channel support on the basis of the technical framework and technology platform. Through domain design, business practice, and technological innovation, relying on meta-service management, data governance, and visual service arrangement, it has greatly improved the efficiency and quality of project development, and met the agile development and operation needs of the financial industry, thereby supporting customer business innovation, realizing data sharing, and effectively improving the bank’s product innovation and operation capabilities. It has promoted the rapid development of domestic digital banking business.

Since its establishment, the company has always adhered to the principle of independent innovation and independent research and development. The products and technical solutions provided to banks and other Financial Institution Groups are independently developed by the company and own 100% intellectual property rights. The various businesses are independent and controllable, safe and reliable, and have formed a complete digital banking Internet product system. It has accumulated rich experience and practical cases in the financial industry. The company can provide customers with full-stack services such as consulting, planning, planning, construction, operation, innovation and marketing of digital banking. Under the scenario of deep integration of finance and technology, it will provide financial technology solutions for more financial enterprises through mature technologies and services to help financial enterprises digital transformation.

In the field of basic software, the company has a distributed database of complete intellectual property rights and core technologies, and has occupied the commanding heights of Xinchuang’s localization in the high-concurrency, real-time trading financial-grade high-end application field.

As of the end of 2023, the company has obtained 333 software copyrights and multiple patents, and owns all source codes and independent intellectual property rights from basic software to the application layer. It now has more than 4,000 IT + finance talents, including more than 1,000 database DBAs, and has established an experienced team of various R & D and service talents.

(2) Excellent experience in digital banking

Since its establishment, the company has always been deeply involved in the technological construction and development of China’s financial industry, and adheres to the development concept of mutual promotion of business and technology. Over the past 20 years, it has not only accumulated mature solutions and products covering the front, middle and back of the financial industry, including mobile banking, online banking, open banking, online credit system, Pisces central product platform, smart marketing mid-platform, core business system, regulatory reporting system, etc., but also has the service capabilities of Financial Institution Group digital transformation planning and consulting, large-scale project group delivery, and large-scale system integration. Focusing on the company’s key solution customer experience system construction field, the company has established an independent customer experience center, and always takes the improvement of Financial Institution Group customer experience system as the primary business focus.

(Iv) Advanced domestic databases

The risk of traditional database localization substitution mainly lies in the product maturity of the domestic database and the transformation of the original business system. Whether the database localization substitution is successful or not, in addition to the domestic database manufacturers being able to fully master the core technology of the database, they also need to rely on the application software developers of the original business system to adapt and transform their applications. The company is currently the only supplier in China that has both complete independent intellectual property rights distributed transaction database software and a full range of banking Internet products. The exclusive advantages of "database products + financial customers (500 +) + financial industry DBA team (1000 +) + bank key transaction system (2000 +) " built by the SUNDB database (basic software) and financial scenarios (application software) with independent intellectual property rights do not need to rely on other manufacturers when replacing the database localization, and can independently complete the testing and production line.

(5) A high-standard management system

The company is a high-tech enterprise, with ISO9001, CMMI5ISO20000, ISO27001, ISO22301, ISO45001, ISO14001 and other industry authoritative certifications.

IV. Main business analysis

1. Overview

During the reporting period, with the continuous deepening of the digital transformation of our country’s financial industry and the localization of Xinchuang, the company continued to increase investment in research and development, and continuously launched independent, safe and controllable Xinchuang localized and intelligent products. With advanced innovation and leading technology, it has contributed many pioneering technology products and solutions to the national economic construction and financial industry, including: the self-controllable SUNDB domestic database, the front, middle and back office overall solution of the digital bank based on the digital RMB, the self-developed domestic exclusive patent "intelligent high cabinet digital currency robot", 5G digital bank, and the "financial industry native APP solution" and "Kelan mobile financial technology platform" based on the domestic operating system, etc. The above innovative products have become an important factor in the company’s revenue growth The company’s second growth curve has laid a solid foundation.

The main reasons for the loss of performance during the reporting period were: (1) the decline in revenue and profits of the company’s invested enterprises, and the corresponding provisions for goodwill impairment; (2) the company’s main business comprehensive gross profit margin was 28.64%, a decrease of 7.26 percentage points from the previous year. The decrease in the company’s comprehensive gross profit margin was due to the delay of projects during the special period, the longer delivery period, and the increase in project implementation costs, resulting in a decrease in gross profit margin.

V. Prospects for the future development of the company

(1) The company’s future development plan

The rapid development of technology, especially the rapid development of artificial intelligence and large models in recent years, is bound to have a huge impact and far-reaching impact on the economy, culture and the entire social environment.

While expanding into the domestic non-banking field, it will also actively expand into overseas markets.

The company has certain market resources in North America, Hong Kong, Macao and South East Asia. In recent years, it has begun to expand the market in North America, Singapore, Vietnam, the Philippines and other countries. In the next few years, it will accelerate the overseas marketing activities of advantageous products such as database and mobile banking.

(2) Possible risks and countermeasures

1. The risk of increased market competition

With the development of Internet finance and the continuous improvement of the informatization level of commercial banks, the demand for IT services by banks has increased year by year, the overall size of the market has continued to expand, and the scale and competitiveness of competitors in the industry have continued to improve. At the same time, the number of new competitors entering the market has gradually increased, which may lead to the intensification of market competition in the industry in which the company is located.

Therefore, in order to avoid this risk, the company will continue to improve itself, keep up with industry trends, and further enhance its strength in terms of Product Research & Development, technological innovation, Client Server, and capital scale.

2. The risk of rising labor costs

With the rising cost of living in cities and the intensification of competition for professional talents by competitors, there is a risk that the company’s labor costs will continue to rise, which will have a certain impact on the company’s operations.

Therefore, the company will gradually establish a high-level enterprise management and internal control system, continuously improve the level of corporate governance, further implement cost control throughout the process, and improve the efficiency of the company’s daily operations.

3. Risks of increasing accounts receivable and changes in the ageing structure

With the expansion of the company’s business scale and market coverage, and the long execution and acceptance period of the project itself, the accounts receivable have a trend of gradually increasing and changing the age structure of the account. The company’s customers are mainly banks, Financial Institution Groups, etc. If the credit situation of individual customers changes greatly, it will not be conducive to the recovery of the company’s accounts receivable, and will have an adverse impact on the company’s asset quality and operating performance.

Therefore, the company will further standardize management, strengthen the collection of accounts receivable, and carefully summarize experience and lessons learned to avoid new overdue accounts receivable as much as possible and reduce the risk of accounts receivable.

Is poaching people, making money, mergers, and community group buying another bubble?

Editor’s note: This article is originally written by Pioneer State, and the authors are Chu Chunxi and Yang Xuanran.

If the entire industry is divided into main vessels, branch vessels and capillaries, then the online and offline business has completed the integration of main vessels and branch vessels in recent years, and the remaining capillaries are the chosen market for community group buying.

And these capillaries will eventually be "figured out, tied up, and turned into branch vessels", that is, operated by more refined supply chains. Once that happens, the market for community group buying will face greater challenges.

"We don’t think this trend will last long," said one investor familiar with new retail.

The short-lived "trend" in his mouth is "community group buying". After sharing bicycles and leaving chicken feathers on unmanned shelves, community group buying seems to have become the last ripple in the consumer industry in 2018.

In the two months from August to October this year, about 2 billion RMB entered the field of community group buying one after another. The industry is moving forward with capital, and it is unclear whether capital has achieved trend or trend has driven capital. For a time, it seems that all eyes in the venture capital circle are glued to "community group buying".

In fact, community group buying is not new. It uses the head of the group as the sales node to provide household consumer goods mainly fresh fruits to the residents of the second-, third- and fourth-tier communities through "online pre-sale + offline self-pickup". It is similar to the previous micro-businesses, and it is also a bit like the fire sales organized by merchants near the community in the past. But no matter what the model is, what we cannot deny is that in the second-, third-, fourth- and fifth-tier cities, a new "melee" is being staged.

01 Dig "Leader" melee

As a key node for obtaining traffic, the head of the team is the core of every community, not only the link of transactions and the guarantee of last-mile delivery, but also the after-sales function. Therefore, the head of the team often becomes the key in this competition.

The old farmer is picking fruit

So, how to maintain the stickiness between the head of the team and the platform, prevent the head of the team from being poached, and even how to prevent the head of the team from running away with traffic, is almost every community group buying company needs to think about the problem. Among them, it involves various issues such as benefit distribution, value output, traffic control and so on. "In the final analysis, excellent head of the team is a scarce resource," said a consumer investor who did not want to give his real name.

In mid-2018, Li Kai registered a WeChat account with a feminine nickname and avatar, and then used this WeChat account to sign up for the recruitment of the head of the competitor. Generally, community group buying companies will build a head group in order to facilitate communication and management. Li Kai signed up as the head of the group, and after success, he was pulled into the group, and hundreds of the heads of the group would become the objects he pried away.

In the early days of wall digging, Li Kai used a stupid method: first find the warehouse of the competing product, and then follow the delivery truck of the warehouse all the way to each community, so that almost the head of the entire line would be locked by Li Kai.

In fact, with the intensification of this competition, in the front-line battlefield of competing for traffic, information is becoming more and more transparent. Core secrets such as "contact information of the head of the team" can be bought from the other party’s employees for only a few tens of thousands of yuan.

Obtaining contact information was often only the first step, and how to find success was the key. In order to convince the other party to successfully surrender, they used all kinds of methods, even went to the head of the group’s house, gave them tasting goods, bought toys for the children, helped with housework, and invited them to dinner… After the other party agreed, they continued: "Sister, please introduce me to a few more heads of the group."

Li Kai’s company had sent 40 boxes of fruit worth more than 100 yuan to try out a group leader in Shanghai. It started with one box a day, then changed to two boxes a day, and then increased to three boxes a day, until the other party said: "Don’t send it, I will do it." Later, the group leader became the number one order in East China.

Of course, in order to prevent their leader from being pried away and traffic loss, group buying companies have also come up with various tricks. Dai Shanhui, founder of Food and Enjoy Club, said that all community group owners of Food and Enjoy Club are regular employees of the company. The ownership of the WeChat group belongs to the company, and the leader can be replaced, but the ownership of the WeChat group remains unchanged. This reduces the loss caused by the personal flow.

For example, the community partners would be graded, and the new community partners would have to enter the boot camp for training. At the same time, different levels of community partners would have different assessment criteria and commission ratios. For the top community partners, the Ten Hui Group would sign an exclusive agreement.

You, me, your chairperson Liu Kai

You, me, and you have established a standardized training system for the head of the team, from how to start a group, to how to increase sales, and even how to become a community KOL, the whole path is a set of ladder growth routes. The head of the team with different abilities can receive different guidance. "Most of the head of the team are mothers, and they are very lonely at home. This job allows her to gain money while also improving her social value and family status." Liu Kai, your chairman, said.

An investor who has invested in two leading group buying companies believes that the most important thing to maintain the head of the group is to establish a reasonable balance of interests. "Why is the head of the group willing to work hard for you? The most important thing is that he can make money." This just fits the operating logic of Community Music. Community Music is an internal incubation project of the comprehensive e-commerce platform "Gejia Network". In an interview with the media, Li Xiao, chairperson of Gejia Network, said that he hopes that the head of Community Music can have more income, and other platforms of Gejia Network can simultaneously empower the head of Community Music to ensure that the small district head has at least two or more income.

02 The pursuit of capital

In early September 2018, Changsha had not yet dissipated the midsummer heat, and the cloudy weather for several days was slightly hot. At this time, the Prosperity Preferred team welcomed Xu Xin, the founder of Today Capital, the "Queen of Venture Capital". The track of "community group buying" has been under Xu Xin’s attention for a long time, and the purpose of this trip is to inspect the community e-commerce project hatched within Furong Prosperity – Prosperity Preferred.

Later, Zhou Yingjie, the co-founder of Xingsheng Preferred, recalled that "everyone talked from 2:00 pm to 4:00 am the next day, and both parties were very interested and did not feel tired." In addition to asking in detail about the company’s startup history, operation status, future plans and so on, Xu Xin also asked many pointed questions.

After 14 hours of detailed discussion, Xu Xin signed the TS on the spot. After half a month, the due diligence team of Today’s Capital conducted a comprehensive investigation of the project. At the end of September, the two parties officially signed an investment and financing agreement. Xingsheng Preferred received tens of millions of dollars in financing led by Today’s Capital, Jinshajiang Venture Capital, and Zhen Fund.

From August to December, community group buying financing projects are endless. In addition to the above-mentioned prosperous selection, the financing amount of you and me, Shihui Group, Food and Enjoy Club, and Squirrel fight is more than 100 million yuan, and Community Music has received the largest financing in the industry of 108 million US dollars.

Community group buying project financing overview

For the community group buying project "Ten Hui Group" incubated internally, Chen Ying, founder and CEO of Good Things, believes that in the Ten Hui Group model, community leaders assume more performance functions, and in the future, this group can assume more functions, such as content, training, product selection, etc., and may derive new models.

A first-line investment institution managing partner said that the community group buying model not only has characteristics in user acquisition and relationship maintenance, but also breaks through the original model in the performance of transaction orders, achieving efficiency and cost optimization.

Zhu Xiaohu, managing director of Jinshajiang Venture Capital, which invested in Xingsheng Preferred together with Today Capital and Zhen Fund, once said, "We looked at all the projects and companies, and the logic is very simple. It is established. The main reason why it was difficult for e-commerce to make money in the past was that it had to be shipped one by one, and the logistics cost was very high. The reason why community group buying can rise is because the business model is very healthy. It saves a lot of costs by pulling together the orders of customers in a community at one time, which is to make a profit. In addition, the platform hardly needs to spend money to acquire customers. It allows the head of the team to acquire customers locally, and then finally distributes it, and allows part of the benefits to the head of the team. This model is (attractive) for customers in second- and third-tier cities

For the project, the entry of capital not only provides them with food and ammunition, but also forms a good endorsement for their promotion, thus further obtaining resources and flows.

With the blessing of capital, in order to compete for territory, "mergers" are staged among these companies from time to time. Among them, the most representative is the Food and Enjoy Association, which has merged more than a dozen companies.

"Mergers can make the scale reach a certain number of levels in a short period of time, and it can" come to the table ". [But] it doesn’t help the business model and value itself much." In an interview with the media, Wang Peng, the founder of the Ten Hui Group, put it bluntly.

Still, in the past few months, the region’s top start-ups have all but been carved up. "Now the top groups have been divided almost by everyone," Mr. Wang said. "There are seven provinces that are doing well: Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan and Hubei. The top three influential companies in each province are the top three, with a total of more than 20 companies, and the division is almost complete."

Regarding the merger, an investor who invested in two group buying companies held a negative view, "In the merger, there are some projects to VC, and several teams are pieced together. You work in Jinan and I work in Wuhan. On the surface, the team can be gathered quickly, but in the future, the cohesion of this team will have a great risk of collapse."

03 Test of operational capabilities

"The core barrier of community group buying is operation, which is stronger than anyone’s fine operation ability," said Yang Ge, founder of Xinghan Capital. Because in Yang Ge’s view, the reason why community group buying appears is the market demand formed by the middle ground after both online and offline are integrated.

Differentiation Analysis of Project Models

Yang Ge said that the integration of business began offline, driven by real estate and brand chains, which was gradually formed and completed two or three decades ago, while in the past ten years, e-commerce plus group buying, and O2O The way to complete the online integration, then there are some local areas, the mobility of offline goods is slow, the degree of commodity standardization needs to be improved, and the logistics cost of the last mile is high, so the buyer’s price sensitivity and convenience have not been satisfied. Therefore, community group buying has been iterated in this middle ground.

But it is not a mainstream model, and its characteristics make it difficult to standardize and integrate. "The culture, degree of standardization, logistics costs, and user preferences of each region are different, so it is more difficult to integrate, and it is difficult to form a big brand and perfect system."

A managing partner of a first-tier capital believes that the most important thing that community group buying companies should have is supply chain capabilities. "Most companies do not have supply chain capabilities. Once they expand across regions or grow in a single city, the specific performance will be huge losses."

From the current situation, several leading projects are born out of large companies with supply chain resources, such as Ten Huituan was incubated from community e-commerce, and about 50% of the supply chain resources in the early days came from having good things; Community Music was incubated from Gejia Network, founder Ma Xintong said that basically all mainstream cities across the country have the basic supply chain of Gejia Network Group, which is enough to support the current front-end business of Community Music.

Ma Xintong, founder of Community Music

According to media reports, there are more than 13,000 convenience stores in the country, and there are many landing convenience stores and supply chain resources. Also starting in Changsha, Xingsheng Preferred chose community convenience stores as sales nodes.

In addition, what kind of category to enter from is also crucial. Since the digestive capacity of the community is limited, up to 20 products can be launched a day. Too many categories and too frequent sales will greatly reduce the benefits. According to the information obtained from the interview, you, me, Squirrel, Neighborhood One, and Ten Huituan all have about 20 SKUs online every day.

At the same time, fresh fruits, as a high-frequency rigid demand category for household consumption, have become the first choice for drainage of various projects. In different seasons, you and I will choose to launch different popular categories such as Aksu apples and Guangxi sugar oranges for drainage; in the early stage of the ten Hui group, it used popular products provided by good things for hot start; similarly, squirrel neighbors, which mainly focus on fresh fruits, snacks, specialty gifts, etc., account for 60% of fresh food; in addition, in order to enhance the revenue of the head of the group and the platform, Community Music has also introduced products with high unit price of home appliances.

Chen Ying, founder and CEO of Good Things, said that the community group buying model is a selected model. When entering second- and third-tier cities, it is difficult to sell fresh food casually purchased from the local wholesale market and sold in the community. Only fresh food with different tastes can cut the market.

04 is essentially a marketing tool

"A lot of times, user experience is not necessarily cost-effective, it may be service ability, it may be emotional consumption, herd psychology, so there is psychology in it, and it may also be some marketing methods," said one investor.

These comprehensive factors have created some capital’s optimism about community group buying tracks. But Yang Ge believes that although community group buying is a good business during this period, its investment value has yet to be verified by the market. In fact, from 2014 to the present, the trends that have emerged are accompanied by some bubbles, and the life cycle of trends is getting shorter and shorter, from last year’s new retail, unmanned retail, to the Mini Program at the beginning of this year.

For investment institutions, the "kinetic energy" and "energy" of a trend are the key to survival time. For example, the "Mini Program" trend that only lasted for four or five months is the behavior of specific companies using specific technology implementation products, so it is difficult to generate large kinetic energy. The "kinetic energy" of community group buying seems to be weaker, because it is the only small business trend formed within this stage after the flow dividend of the entire Internet wave and the business model dividend of the entire (online) group buying fade. Whether this wave of dividends can be used to extend to the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain for more development is a more important test in the future.

Community group buying seems to be more like a marketing method. For brands, promotion through community group buying enhances the liquidity of inventory; for consumers, their price sensitivity is satisfied.

But after all, it is after the Internet dividend, offline business was hit, counterattacked, and then borrowed the Internet idea in this stage of the short-term product. If the entire industry is divided into main vessels, branch vessels and capillaries, then, in recent years, online and offline business has completed the integration of main vessels and branch vessels, the remaining capillaries, is the community group buying the choice of the market.

And these capillaries will eventually be "cleaned up, tied up, and turned into branch vessels," that is, operated by more refined supply chains. Once that happens, the market for community group buying will face greater challenges. "Although it may be a slow process, the entire stock market will gradually shrink," Yang Ge said.

But perhaps, in the future, community group buying will become a tool like group, live broadcast and other traffic acquisition forms, rather than appearing in the form of independent projects, such as future unmanned retail stores can also carry out community promotions.

"In the future, it is very likely to evolve into LBS (Location Based Service), which is a kind of automated placement based on location, or like sharing, it will eventually find that the cost structure is difficult to maintain, and eventually return to online and offline formats." Yang Ge said.
