Yu Liang's Approval

Xia Yu was somewhat surprised to be called by Yu Liang, and he followed behind him.

An Siyao also wanted to follow, but she was stopped by Yu Liang.

Yu Liang called Yu Ningmeng along with Xia Yu.

Yu Liang's main purpose for coming this time was to hold a meeting, followed by checking on An Siyao, and then to see how Yu Ningmeng's company was doing.

As for bringing Xia Yu, it was for a third purpose: to assess Xia Yu's abilities.

Although Yu Ningmeng told him that Xia Yu had already earned tens of millions from An Tianfeng, those were all from selling products. The Yu family's company needed not a labor force to develop products but a helmsman who could lead the group.

The car quickly arrived at the destination.

Yu Ningmeng had rented a floor of office space near Hua University, and there were already more than ten people working inside.

Arriving at Yu Ningmeng's office, Yu Liang sat at his desk and looked at various data reports.

This errand industry was not running very smoothly, but it was still within an acceptable range.

"What are the current issues?" Yu Liang asked Yu Ningmeng.

"First of all, the delivery efficiency is very poor, and secondly, there are few willing to try it..." Yu Ningmeng listed them one by one.

Xia Yu, who had nothing to do, picked up the data that Yu Liang had put down and looked at it.

After glancing at it, he was surprised, isn't this a takeout?

However, this take-out service is a bit crude.

The buyer doesn't communicate directly with the platform but instead places an order with the seller, who then finds the platform? This can't be called a platform at all!

And it still used chatting software to communicate? And the riders still deliver one order at a time?

This plan has a lot of problems, but considering that even the express delivery industry in this world has not developed, this is not surprising.

He continued to flip through the plan.

The sound of the pages flipping attracted the attention of Yu Liang, who was trying to figure out how to solve the problem. He vented his anger towards Xia Yu: "Enough with flipping the pages, come and answer the questions."

Seeing Xia Yu's puzzled expression, Yu Liang was delighted to see his rival looking deflated, helping to relieve his frustration.

However, what puzzled Xia Yu was not how to answer Yu Ningmeng's question, but what Yu Ningmeng's question was.

Yu Liang continued to make things difficult: "You can't marry my granddaughter without some skills."

Under Yu Liang's provocation, Xia Yu gave up asking for the question and directly started talking about the project in his hands: "Having the riders deliver one order at a time is wasteful and costly. They can deliver several orders along the same route."

Yu Liang neither agreed nor disagreed. This was an effortless answer, which didn't prove anything.

"Using Penguin Chat to arrange work is also very inefficient, you can create a dedicated mobile app," Xia Yu added.

Yu Liang nodded. He had also thought of this point. Mobile apps were only used as small tools at present, so thinking of using a dedicated app was quite remarkable.

Xia Yu continued to speak. Both Yu Liang and Yu Ningmeng were very satisfied.

Yu Liang had already begun to see Xia Yu in a new light.

"These are all minor details; there is one fundamental problem," Xia Yu looked at Yu Liang and Yu Ningmeng.

Yu Liang and Yu Ningmeng couldn't help but focus on Xia Yu, who had already demonstrated his capabilities, and his suggestions were all practical.

"We shouldn't take business from the store owners; we should take it from the buyers," Xia Yu said.

Yu Ningmeng's mind couldn't catch up for a moment, but Yu Liang's eyes lit up instantly. He slapped the table, "Great!" Taking business from sellers would make their delivery service a mere tool for the store owners, while taking business from the buyers would bypass them. However, there were intricacies in this approach.

"What we want to do is create a platform, like a forum, where the customers belong to the forum instead of to a particular store owner," Xia Yu proposed the vague platform concept of this world.

"Take customers away from the store owners and turn them into our users! Once we grow big, we can suppress the store owners in return!" Yu Liang had already envisioned the prospects.

Yu Ningmeng also realized the potential and saw a broader future for this industry. She came to the computer and recorded the ideas that appeared in her mind.

Yu Liang leaned back in his chair, his mind also storming, but not considering the delivery service, but rather the concept of the platform. If delivery service could become a platform, could other things as well? For example, a platform for taking cabs? A platform for shopping?

Yu Liang felt that the market's cake had been completely divided, but now he realized there was still such a large piece of meat to be eaten.

After five minutes, Yu Ningmeng raised her head, looking excitedly at Xia Yu, and was about to speak, but hesitated.

"What are you thinking about?" Yu Liang encouraged Yu Ningmeng to tell him.

"I was thinking about how much equity to give Xia Yu," Yu Ningmeng didn't think she should get this guidance for free, especially since Xia Yu was considered family.

"Give him something for it? All of it will be his in the future anyway." Yu Liang's tone was poor, but his words were very pleasant.

Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief, seeing Yu Liang had passed this hurdle and had recognized the matter between him and An Siyao.

He didn't know that Yu Liang still had some ulterior motives. Thinking about the concept of the platform, Yu Liang felt that if he really had to pay for it, it might be too huge a sum. And with this reasoning, he could enjoy free meals with a clear conscience.

Looking at An Siyao's appearance, as long as Xia Yu didn't mess around or get involved with anything bad, being together was a sure thing, and the company would eventually be Xia Yu's, so he wasn't deceiving Xia Yu.

If Xia Yu caused trouble and upset An Siyao, leading to their separation, these shares could be considered as interest since Yu Liang's granddaughter wasn't played with for free. In any case, Yu Liang didn't stand to lose.

Touching his chin, Yu Liang was pleased with his own cleverness.

Xia Yu, on the other hand, didn't really care about these internet industries. The possibility of him starting up such industries requiring large amounts of financial, material and human resources, and even some official power, was too low. He didn't dare underestimate those capitalists. He believed that if he started, other capitalists would smell the opportunity and enter the field with large amounts of capital and connections, engulfing him.

Even if he managed to keep the company through clever maneuvers, he would end up like those predecessors, retaining only a very small share.

In the face of capital, experience is not very useful, and now is not the age when everything is waiting to be revived; competition is extremely fierce.

Instead of worrying about this, it's better to think about when to start drug development. Medicine is highly profitable, and it relies on solid strength to speak for itself. The money in hand is truly earned, unlike the numerous bubbles in the internet industry.

Yuliang, who was busy organizing his thoughts, finished inspecting Xia Yu and was very satisfied.

In the following days, Yuningmeng was also busy carrying out radical innovations, but she still didn't forget to watch Xia Yu and An Siyao.

This made Xia Yu very disappointed.

This morning, when Xia Yu woke up from the bed and picked up his phone, he found an email in his inbox with the subject "ta".

The sender's email was his secondary account.

This was not a supernatural event. Xia Yu had set up a program earlier that would send such an email when a specific missing person notice appeared on a small forum.

Ta is Tina's English name. This means that something has happened on Tina's side, and the girl is using a code to call for him.
