The front-end, back-end and hardware testing of Muying’s ticketing system went very smoothly and basically fully met Li Mu’s requirements.
Li Mu knew very well that if the Muying ticketing system was introduced to the public, it would be equivalent to the world's first online movie ticket sales system, which would probably bring a big shock to the entire industry.
The software and hardware of the entire system are not high-tech. What is new is the entire solution. What really wins is the solution.
Just like shared bicycles, bicycles are not high-tech, mobile phones are not high-tech, and Mobike's shaft-driven bicycles are not high-tech. If you take apart the smart lock containing GPS and network modules, it is nothing more than the Internet of Things. There is nothing really high-tech, but someone thought of the solution of shared bicycles, and put these hardware together in an orderly manner, and it became an unprecedented and disruptive solution, and it also gave birth to a kind of A new industrial model—shared bicycles.
Sharing bicycles is very interesting. On the surface, it seems to be a high-end bicycle rental business, but if you look deeper, it is an idea that can leverage large capital. Before the industry is not overrun, a bicycle may attract people. There are several, a dozen or even dozens of registered users, and in addition to paying a 299 yuan car deposit, each user must also pre-charge a certain amount to use the car smoothly.
In this way, shared bicycles can obtain more than 300 yuan in cash flow from a single user, and one bicycle may even leverage thousands or even more than 10,000 yuan of cash flow into one's own hands. This is amazing. After millions or tens of millions of users, that is a large amount of money, and because the funds are extremely dispersed, the possibility of user runs is very slim. This money can be safely and boldly invested in other fields to make substantial profits.
It is precisely because there is huge room for profit behind shared bicycles that it has brought a huge shock to the entire Internet industry in a short period of time, and then attracted countless capital investments. In first-tier cities, there are many shared bicycles. The situation of attack.
The acceptance of Muying’s ticketing system made Li Mu somewhat worried. If he wanted to penetrate this industry, he must start from the moment the product is announced and advance extremely quickly. Otherwise, once the industry sees this business model, The development potential will definitely burst out with unprecedented enthusiasm, and everyone will turn their heads and plunge into this industry.
Although Li Mu's team has registered a large number of patents around the world regarding the Muying ticketing system, Li Mu knows very well that patents are not an indestructible defense. Many large companies in the world will do something even if they know that they are infringing on the other party's patent. If pursued, it would be nothing more than paying some money, and before the money is paid, there will be a long period of wrangling in the judicial process.
Especially in the domestic development environment, even patents as intuitive as trademarks can be copied, let alone a solution that combines various software and hardware.
The reason why Li Mu wants to order a large number of terminal ticket machines is to prepare for the channel in advance. After Muying is launched, he will quickly push Muying to tens of millions of Internet users, and then push Muying to all regular online stores across the country. In front of the cinema, even if others catch up halfway, there is no chance.
After the Muying ticketing system was accepted, Li Mu made an explanation with Kong Lingyu. Starting from December 1st, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" will be promoted on YY, and the theme song of the movie will be promoted on Yiting.com in advance. Warm up for the movie.
As for the launch time of the Muying ticketing system, Li Mu has tentatively set it as December 6th, one day before the movie is released, and will directly pre-sell the tickets for the 7th.
At that time, both YY and Taobao will provide preferential subsidies to users who purchase tickets online. Each user will be randomly given a coupon of 5-15 yuan, so that the user can directly deduct the coupon part when paying. cost.
The convenient online ticket purchasing platform + ticket purchase discount + vigorous promotion of the movie will definitely attract many users to watch the movie. Although I only have 14 cinemas, these fourteen cinemas have a total of 12,000 Multiple seats, if you can greatly increase the attendance rate of your own theaters during the release of "Girls We Chased Together", you can directly open it to other theaters in the next step, making their theaters official The Muying online ticketing system has been added.
…
After arranging the ticketing system and the film's release, Li Mu locked himself in the villa at Ziyun Villa. He asked Li Ziwei to buy a lot of food and ingredients for him, and then he stayed in the villa and brooded for several days. Not seen either.
For a few days, apart from eating, sleeping and going to the toilet, Li Mu spent the rest of his time studying one thing, which was the upcoming SARS epidemic.
Li Mu racked his brains and recalled many news about SARS that year. First of all, it is certain that SARS will appear in Guangdong Province in December this year and break out on a small scale. However, Li Mu is not sure which city in Guangdong Province will be discovered first. ;
Secondly, the boiling point in my previous life was not taken seriously until March or April next year. Part of the reason for this was insufficient judgment on SARS, and part of it was artificial blockage of news. Moreover, the true nature of SARS will not be confirmed until February or March next year. month;
Finally, the timeline for the nationwide fight against SARS will be pushed back to April next year. At that time, SARS will truly become the target of the nationwide fight against SARS, and SARS will be gradually eliminated in the following months.
Li Mu carefully analyzed all the clues he could grasp and felt that it was not that easy for him to interfere in the historical process of SARS.
Since the early stages of SARS were not specifically defined, it was impossible for the entire society to know how serious SARS was when it first broke out.
In this case, before the government and international health organizations have spoken out, there is no way for me to release the news in advance. Otherwise, it may not only cause social panic, but also make people question that this kind of thing is not possible for me and Makino Technology. If the reason is known in advance, Li Mu's performance in the Internet industry is unparalleled, and he can also be packaged as an Internet genius. If he can predict the outbreak of multiple epidemics in the country at a certain time,
The news cannot be announced in advance, which means that Li Mu must wait for the government to announce the SARS condition before he can directly intervene. Before that, Li Mu could only go to Chencang secretly.
There are many ways to secretly cross Chencang, but none of them can reach the key point.
Li Mu is not a medical staff and does not know what SARS is, let alone how to treat it. The idea of purchasing a batch of key drugs to support various places at critical moments is basically useless;
After thinking about it, Li Mu felt that what he should do most now was to find a reason to stock up on more disinfectant, masks and other medical supplies that can effectively reduce the chance of infection.
However, there is no point in hoarding too much of this kind of thing, but it looks particularly weird if there is too much of it.
As an entrepreneur in the Internet industry, I hoarded disinfectants and masks in large quantities before SARS entered the public consciousness. This is somewhat unjustifiable in itself.
However, if you can’t even stock up on masks and disinfectants, what else can you do for SARS? By that time, I'm afraid I will have no choice but to donate money.
Li Mu has personally experienced that period of panic. A low-quality mask that has no protective effect at all can cost several times or even more than ten times. A bottle of 84 disinfectant can cost hundreds of yuan, and a pack of isatis root can cost twice as much. It's more than ten times more expensive and still has no market price.
People dare not go out or come into contact with others. Once someone around them has a fever, there will be panic. Once they feel a little fever, they will immediately panic. If one person has a fever, the whole class or even the entire dormitory building must be locked down and quarantined. What people discuss every day is where There is another case somewhere, and there is another death. The state of panic is something that people will never forget.
All Li Mu can think of now is to find a suitable reason to stockpile a large amount of materials useful for SARS, because hoarding materials at this stage will not cause a squeeze on similar materials during the SARS outbreak.
The reason why hoarding now will not cause a squeeze in a few months is that the market demand for each commodity is very stable without huge external stimulation.
If a disinfectant factory has a maximum disinfectant production capacity of 100,000 liters per day, but due to stable market demand, the manufacturer can only produce 60,000 liters per day. In this case, if you give the manufacturer a time limit of two months at this stage, A large purchase order will guide manufacturers to work overtime and increase production for themselves within these two months.
If you convert all the extra production capacity of the factory into products, then such a disinfectant factory can produce an additional 40,000 liters of disinfectant for itself every day, which is 1.2 million liters in one month and 2.4 million liters in two months. If canned Packed into small 200 ml bottles, that’s 12 million bottles.
After taking away the additional 2.4 million liters of disinfectant produced by the factory, the manufacturer will inevitably resume its previous production of 60,000 liters per day. When SARS breaks out and there is a rush or shortage of disinfectant on the market, it will have 12 million bottles of it. The inventory can be used to alleviate the entire market demand for disinfectants and attack profiteers who try to make a fortune by hoarding and speculating on disinfectants.
If one factory can produce 12 million bottles, if there are more factories like this, they may be able to stock hundreds of millions of bottles.
The same goes for masks. SARS is mainly transmitted through droplets and respiratory tract, so high-standard masks that meet the requirements will be the best defensive equipment for ordinary people. If a large number of masks can be customized from domestic manufacturers that meet the standards or even foreign manufacturers, By then, the SARS protection for the entire society will definitely have a very big impact.
In the same way, standard hand sanitizers, clothing sterilizers and even protective clothing required by medical staff will play a vital role at that critical moment.
Moreover, at a critical moment, these materials suddenly become rare and in short supply, which will not only trigger price hikes, but also trigger crazy buying by the public. Once the crazy buying situation enters, it will definitely trigger social panic.
One hundred people went to the drugstore to buy isatis root. As a result, the price of isatis root increased twenty times, and the stock was very small. Only ten people bought it, and the remaining ninety people would definitely panic.
At that time, if someone took out a hundred boxes of Banlangen and sold it to these one hundred people at full cost price, or even at a lower price, the price of Banlangen could be suppressed immediately, preventing it from being used for speculation. At the same time, because the stock is sufficient, it will not trigger crazy buying, let alone plundering.
So it can be seen that sufficient supplies will play a vital role at critical moments.
So now the question is, although I know that these materials are extremely important, what reason do I use to hoard such materials crazily in the next two or three months
