BXBX NOVEL Chapter 448 - 448: How Much Money Do You Want?
Yin Xun clearly played a big role in this plan. She actually wanted to combine all the projects she was working on together.
In addition to the navigation system, maps could also be used to order takeout and hire taxis online. Whenever there was a need to pay, the users could directly log in and pay with their Xintao account.
She also planned to train another batch of take-out deliverymen similar to Xintao Express workers. They would focus on service and speed to ensure that customers could eat fresh and hot food.
While Fang Yao was watching, Yin Xun added, “In addition to being convenient, the biggest benefit for the drivers is that they don’t need to buy or rent a standard taxi. Our goal is very specific. Because it’s troublesome to equip specialized cars, we hire drivers who have private cars and have enough time.
“They can work as full-time ride-hailing drivers, but they can also choose to work part-time for a few hours a day. This way, our platform only needs to pay them, but it saves the cost of getting cars. The money we pay them will be deducted from the customer’s fare. It’s equivalent to the platform taking a commission. There’s no extra investment. It’s a very good deal.”
“Of course, before that, we have to carefully review the driver’s information to ensure the safety of the customers, especially female passengers. We have to pay more attention to this.”
Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun in surprise. Yin Xun’s thought process was too active. She seemed to have thought of every way to earn money. She did not let anything go to waste.
“There’s one more thing,” Yin Xun continued. “There are many detailed places on the map that are not marked. If we let our company’s own people accept trips from anywhere, it will be a waste of manpower and money. Before we launch the online taxi service, we will hold an event. We will let the users check in at places that are not on the map and report their location. Then, we will distribute a bonus according to the difficulty level.
“Never underestimate how hard a person will work to earn money. After our map is perfected, we’ll sell the information to other companies. Anyway, as technology develops, they’ll collect everything one day. Why shouldn’t I give it to them and earn some money at the same time? The money from selling this information is much more than the money from giving the users some bonuses. Anyway, we’ll definitely make a profit in the end.”
Fang Yao frowned and said, “Then what if other companies see you doing this and learn from you?”
Since this method was so convenient, the other companies would not stand by like fools. They would also hold a similar event and get the users to help them investigate locations.
Yin Xun smiled and said, “It’s alright. They don’t have a shopping website or a delivery business.
“What I mean is that the users aren’t the only ones who can participate. There are also our employees. The couriers have to make deliveries to a lot of places every day. While they use the navigation system, they can also mark out the locations that are currently unavailable. It’s like they’re doing a side job.”
“It’s indeed not a bad idea.” Fang Yao smiled and said expectantly, “There’s no problem with your plan. Let’s go with it. To be honest, you’re always bringing more surprises. I can never predict what you’ll think next. It’s a pity that I can’t poach you for my company. To be honest, if you want to quit your work one day, you can come to my company any time. I guarantee that you’ll be satisfied with the remuneration.”
“Alright, I’ll say this in advance. I’m very expensive. 1 won’t go unless my requirements are met. My ability is in high gh demand, so we’ll have to see your sincerity when the time comes.” Yin Xun suddenly thought of a problem.
She sat up straight and looked at Fang Yao. “However, there’s still a problem with this plan. We still have a lot of preparation to do in the early stages…”
Fang Yao smiled and wore an expression that seemed to say ‘as expected’. He nodded and said, “Hmm, so how much money do you want this time?”
Yin Xun picked up a star-shaped apple and popped it in her mouth. She chewed and swallowed before continuing, “Apart from this, 1 also want to discuss what we talked about last time.”
“Sha Gao?” Fang Yao immediately understood what Yin Xun meant.
Yin Xun nodded. “That’s right. I’ve been in contact with him personally for the past few days. Other than that, I’ve also got someone to investigate the technology of other digital companies. Indeed, his company is the best. It’s just that due to funding problems, the technology is not up to standard, causing the accuracy to be poor.”
“Also, didn’t you say that you wanted me to help Sha Gao’s wife, Ye Wen? I contacted her, but I realized that Sha Gao is very strict with his wife. As soon as he finds out that his wife is not around, he will call her. It’s a little difficult for the two of us to work together..”
