Whirlwind Tai Chi Li Erhai

Chapter 358 Electronic Commerce
At the end of the dinner, Li Erhai held Director Xu's hand tightly, "Director Xu, we have agreed, please come to Wending as soon as possible."

Upon seeing this, Duan Rong said, "Old Xu, hurry up, or he won't let it go."

"Since Minister Duan has spoken, let's go tomorrow."

Unexpectedly, Director Xu was so straightforward, Li Erhai immediately fell in love with this bald old man.

After everyone left, Duan Rong and Li Erhai changed to a teahouse, and they wanted to chat for a while.

"Mr. Duan, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much."

"I know you are busy. If you go to a test area, you will be exhausted."

"It doesn't matter if you're tired, it's just that something happened at home recently, it's really miserable."

"I've heard about you, so it's good, so that you don't have to blame yourself too much at critical times in the future. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. It can be regarded as a farewell to the past."

Li Erhai discovered that Minister Duan and Minister Lei have basically the same views. Is it just because they all want me to make a difference in my career?Or is it because the society sees things more thoroughly because they are older?

"There are people in our ministry who miss you."

Duan Rong suddenly said this.

"I want to go back and have a look, but it's not convenient."

"Is there any inconvenience? Everyone is familiar with the place where I used to work. If you have time, come and see it. Ma Renyi and Lin Gaijuan often nag you."

"I miss them too."

"Lin Gaijuan is a good kid. I still remember your kindness. If you are interested, I will lead the way."

"Thank you, Minister Duan, for your concern, it's not appropriate."

"Then I know, you have someone in your heart."

"Minister Duan, I heard that you are going to go further. I want to congratulate you in advance."

"Where did you get the news?"

"Anyway, someone outside is spreading the word."

"Not yet settled."

Li Erhai understood, it was true.

He was happy for Duan Rong, because Minister Duan was a man of business and deserved to be in a higher position.

"Director Xu is the head of the Economic and Trade Committee. He is proficient in business and has a certain degree of research on social development. He is very sensitive. You should think positively about what he said tonight, and don't take it lightly."

Li Erhai knows that many opportunities are fleeting and must be grasped well.

The two chatted very happily, and they didn't break up until nearly eleven o'clock.

When Li Erhai returned to Wending, it was already 01:30 at night.

On the way, I received a text message from Lin Juan, asking if he drank too much.

He said no, he just made do in the dormitory at night, but didn't pass.

Director Xu arrived at nine o'clock the next morning.

Li Erhai and Qi Hao received him together.

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Li Erhai said: "Director Xu, we have gathered some people, including the municipal party committee and the municipal government. I would like to ask you to popularize the new thing of e-commerce first."

Director Xu nodded in agreement, "It's better if you think carefully."

When we arrived at the meeting room, it was already full, about 40 to [-] people.

Li Erhai introduced Director Xu to everyone and emphasized the importance of learning.

Some people below are here with the mentality of listening casually, e-commerce, this thing is definitely not a thing.

About half of the people came to learn with sincerity. They feel that the birth of every new thing is the beginning of a new era. Whoever grasps the opportunity may stand at the forefront of the trend.

Director Xu began to speak.

"When I came to Wending today, I was very excited. If this is the start of the class, it means that I am the first county-level unit in the whole province to hold this class. It has far-reaching significance."

"Maybe some people scoff at e-commerce. How can this thing have a spring? Maybe some people are sensitive to the opportunity. The rise of this thing may bring about earth-shaking changes."

"No matter what everyone thinks, I will delay everyone's time for half a day today. I hope everyone can quietly listen to me nagging about this new thing."

"It's not accurate to say it's new. Let's start from our country. In 1990, e-commerce had already started, which opened the era of electronic data exchange."

"So, to say it's new now is to say we're obsolete."

"A lot of things are developing very fast, but our perception and reaction are seriously behind and can't keep up with the beat. People in the developed coastal areas, especially Shenzhen, have already started to test the waters."

"By 1993, our country had realized that the electronic age was coming, and began to prepare for the development of e-commerce."

"From 1993 to 1997, the Chinese government led the organization to carry out the "Three Gold Projects" stage, laying a solid foundation for the development of e-commerce."

"In March 1998, China's first Internet transaction was successful. This happened ten years ago. Does anyone know how it was traded?"

"You don't need to pay cash, and you don't need to go to the scene, you can buy things remotely."

Many people below are surprised, how to buy this?How did things come?
"What happened ten years ago is still unbelievable to us today, and some people even suspect that it is not a technical reason, but a problem with our thinking. The concept cannot keep up."

"The concept problem is a serious problem. I don't believe in anything, I don't dare to try anything, I blindly cling to the incomplete and follow the old ways. This is the root cause of our backwardness in the central and western regions."

"If you want to change the status quo, first start with changing your mindset."

"It doesn't matter whether you understand my lesson today or not. As long as you understand the sentence just now, the lesson will have meaning."

Both Li Erhai and Qi Hao agreed with Director Xu's words, they must change the dogmatism that sticks to the rules, and be brave to be reformers.

Looking back on his success in the past ten years, Li Erhai felt that it was the result of daring to think and dare to break through?
"From 2000 to now, e-commerce has gradually shifted from traditional industries to B2B as the main body, marking that e-commerce has entered a stable period of sustainable development."

"Just two months ago, there was a thing called 'Taobao', has anyone heard of it?"

"A man named Jack Ma founded a business company called 'Alibaba'. He explored in the B2B field and achieved considerable success. This Taobao is a product of their company."

"What Taobao is, is the simplest form of e-commerce, and it will definitely be something closely related to us in the future."

"Simply put, it is possible to get what you need to eat and drink without leaving your home. This thing, I think it is very powerful, and it may subvert our current cognition."

"There is another one called 'Jingdong', which is similar to it and is also in full swing. Believe it or not, anyway, I believe that in the future, the business world will be dominated by them."

"We are now vigorously developing the experimental area in Wending. What is the experiment? You should try these advanced things. When you step forward when others can't believe it, you dare to be the first, and you occupy the favorable terrain , and you will win the battle."

Li Erhai took the lead in applauding. Today he has a new understanding of e-commerce and a new hope.
