Chapter 1484 - Upwind Logistics Is Fearless!

Late at night, the conference room in Shengyun Corporation’s headquarters was brightly lit.
“Is Upwind Logistics crazy? Why would they do that?!”
Nie Yunsheng and the other executives of Shengyun Corporation looked stunned and even a little helpless and furious.
They did not expect Upwind Logistics to react so quickly after Shengyun Corporation released an announcement to stop working with Upwind Logistics. All the other cooperative businesses were stopped within the same day!
It was not surprising that Upwind Logistics knew about this. That was because it was not a highly confidential matter.
However, the problem was why Upwind Logistics reacted so quickly, as if they had a countermeasure?
When Nie Yunsheng first heard this news, his first reaction was anger. Why did Upwind Logistics not talk about morals?
How could he say that the system had been upgraded?
If the system was upgraded, why did it not affect your own express delivery but
not Shengyun Corporation’s?
Obviously, this was an excuse. Upwind Logistics wanted to slap Shengyun
Corporation in the face!
As for when the system would be upgraded? When would this magical bug be
fixed?
That was hard to say.
For such metaphysics, a week was a week, and a year was a year.
Generally speaking, he could not count on it.
This move directly caused Shengyun Corporation’s parcels to only be piled up
in the express delivery cabinet and community courier stations.
The other areas were still alright. After all, there were many express delivery
cabinets and community courier stations which could be eaten. However, in
Jingzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzho0u, and other surrounding areas, there
were not many express delivery cabinets and community courier stations in
Shengyun Express. Caught off guard, they exploded.
Nie Yunsheng wanted to say that Upwind Logistics did not care about morals,
but on further thought, he was the one who did not care about morals first……
Not only that, Upwind Logistics was much more civilized.
Shengyun Express had sent a notice directly, asking the various companies and
websites not to send parcels to Upwind Courier stations. It was made very
clear.
Of course, this was not easy to say that it involved a monopoly. That was
because it was their freedom for express delivery companies to decide how to
send parcels. To send parcels that were originally sent to Upwind Courier
stations to their own express delivery cabinets was not considereda “forced
business to choose one” abuse of market dominance. It did not violate the
country’s laws and regulations.
The cooperation between Shengyun Corporation and Upwind Logistics was not
that reliable. They had no obligations to each other and could end at any time.
Similarly, Upwind Logistics would no longer accept Shengyun Corporation’s
packages because of the system’s promotion. There was nothing wrong with
that.
However, Shengyun Corporation had sent a notice in black and white, and they
had made the first move. Upwind Logistics had made the first move, and the
method was much more civilized.
There was naturally a gap in moral public opinion between the two sides.
In actual fact, more people would support Upwind Logistics.
Now, for Nie Yunsheng, the focus was no longer on how to save face and public
opinion, but how to deal with the current unexpected situation.
It was not a big problem to be scolded a little. However, Upwind Logistics
suddenly became strong-willed and stabbed Shengyun Express. The entire
delivery business was in a mess. In the golden zone around Jingzhou, Beijing,
Shanghai, and Guangzhou, the lowest level of Shengyun Express’s delivery
teminal fell into a state of failure or even collapse. How could that do?
At this point, some executives could not accept this reality.
“Has Upwind Logistics gone mad? How dare they fall out with us.”
“Aren’t they damaging themselves by killing eight hundred enemies?
“Shengyun Express might be chaotic for a while, but it is just a slow delivery.
The express delivery will still be in the hands of customers. Upwind Logistics
did not cooperate with us and cut off sixty to seventy percent of the delivery
source. What is this called? We make a small loss and they explode
It was normal to have such thoughts.
That was because Upwind Logistics and Shengyun Express were
interdependent. These executives even felt that Upwind Logistics’ business
relied on Shengyun Express.
Without Shengyun Express, Upwind Logistics’ delivery volume would have
dropped by sixty to seventy percent, or even more!
On one hand, Upwind Courier stations could draw money from these express
delivery companies. It was not a lot, and each express delivery would only cost
a little. However, the main business of Upwind Courier stations was this. The
profits of other miscellaneous businesses were not as good as this.
If he really did not accept Shengyun Corporation’s express delivery, wouldn’t
Upwind Courier stations’ express deliverymen be free? Wouldn’t they have
nothing to do?
Therefore, Upwind Logistics should not be so decisive, right?
Nie Yunsheng sighed. “Sigh, we’ve all been misunderstood!”
“Think about it, do Upwind Courier stations make money?”
The executives looked at each other and fell silent.
That’s right, Upwind Courier stations did not make money at all!
Previously, these people from Shengyun Corporation felt that 60 to 70% of
Upwind Courier stations’ deliveries were from Shengyun Corporation. It was
impossible for Upwind Courier stations to cut off this income.
If Upwind Courier stations were profitable, this deduction was indeed not a
problem.
However, the problem was that Upwind Courier stations had been incurring
losses. What’s more, the more express delivery companies they delivered, the
more losses they would incur!
The delivery of the last mile’ was a real dirty and tiring job. Each piece only
cost a few cents. It was not enough.
Thus, Upwind Courier stations did not care about the Shengyun Corporation’s
parcels at all. Even without these parcels, Upwind Courier stations were still
living quite comfortably. The express deliverymen would knock off on the dot.
They would not have to use performance prizes and overtime pay. Instead,
they would save money.
To the express deliverymen, this was a good thing. Even though their income
would be reduced slightly, they still had their basic salary and benefits. They
had been busy for so long. It was not bad to rest a little.
They were not profitable to begin with, and they had not thought about making
noney. Would it work if you threatened them with not making money?
Shengyun Corporation’s executives realized that they could not do anything
about Upwind Logistics under such circumstances.
Nie Yunsheng tooka deep breath. He knew that he had to make a decision
quickly now. Otherwise, if the express delivery continued, it would become a
huge joke in two days.
“Ask the various sorting centers and websites to hire more temporary workers.
Leave the sorting and assembling of cars to the temporary workers.”
The express deliverymen will work overtime and give them some overtime
pay to appease them.”
Get the delivery guy to call the customers and urge them to hurry up and
collect it. Then, hire some people to deliver the especially large express
delivery”
“Also, explain clearly at once that something went wrong with Upwind Courier
stations. That’s why our delivery was delayed. We cannot take the blame. We
have to throw it away!”
Nie Yunsheng did not have a good solution. Previously, in order to reduce
costs, many express delivery points had fired express deliverymen. It was
unrealistic to think of hiring a large number of express deliverymen in a hurry
now. It was unrealistic to think of many express delivery points out of thin air.
He could only use this temporary measure.
However, could Upwind Logistics collapse a behemoth like Shengyun
Corporation just because they stopped working together?
of course, that was impossible.
Shengyun Corporation might be a little reliant on Upwind Courier stations to a
certain extent, but it did not mean that they had completely lost the ability to
parcels. Nie Yunsheng felt that they had only been caught off guard by Upwind Logistics. As long as they regrouped quickly, with Shengyun
Corporation’s current market share, there was a huge chance of winning
As long as Shengyun Corporation could stabilize and survive this storm, it
would be a cut in the wrist. It would be beneficial in the long term.
It was better than all the express delivery stations in all cities being controlled
by Upwind Courier stations and Shengyun Corporation being controlled at wil1,
right?
February 21st, Thursday.
Pei Qjan was in his office, reading the first stage of the work report seriously.
After Meng Chang completed the entire plan for the plan, he went overseas
with Eric and the others to busy himself with acquiring Finger Games. The plan
for the first helping plan would be advanced by someone else.
This plan was actually very simple. The main part had been done a long time
ago. The resources sent to the children of the poor schools had also been sent
over. The key was this publicity plan.
Pei Qjan was most concerned about this.
As long as the publicity plan for the First-Aid Plan could achieve the initial
effect: if the publicity effect in the poor rural areas was good and did not cause
any ripple on the intemet, this plan would be considered perfect.
Until now, many slogans had been written on the walls of various poor villages.
Of course, these were all villages that were directly related to the Chuji plan.
These slogans would naturally expand when the scope of the first helping plan
was expanded.
Pei Qian looked at the slogans and could not help but laugh.
These slogans were similar. They were all red, white, and border. The black
body was thick and looked very eye-catching.
However, the content of the slogan was varied and even a little shocking.
Pei Qjan could not help but feel emotional. How down-to-earth!
He randomly scanned a few slogans.
“Raise a good pig and fatten yourself up!”
“Smoke rising from the ground, detain for fifteen days!”
“The straw is full of treasures. Whoever house’s burn, their wife would run!
“You can sharpen a knife when you cut wood. Finish junior high before
working
“If you drive in alcohol, she will marry someone else!”
It’s different if you have a boy or a girl. You’ll have no partner in the future!”
“Child, go to school happily. The rice and oil are extremely rich!
Some of the slogans made Pei Qjan laugh.
However, this was indeed the usual style of rural slogans. After all, many
people in the village did not have a high level of culture. Only such
straightforward, catchy, and easy to remember slogans could achieve the best
publicity effect.
The content of these slogans was relatively common, and the slogan of the
first helping plan was perfectly hidden in them. It was mainly some slogans to
persuade rural children to go to school or the slogan to link school with rice,
oil, and salt.
Ordinary people would not think that these slogans were actually related to a
specific charity project. After all, there was no signature of the First-Aid Plan
under this slogan.
However, after the villagers saw it, they only had to ask around to know that
they could regularly receive some rice, oil, and salt when sending their
children to school.
Pei Qjan was very satisfied with this. This plan had basically achieved his initial
goal.
He searched online. Indeed, there was no popularity of the First-Aid Plan.
Pei Qian felt much more at ease now that the charity funds had been spent. He
was more confident about the settlement of this cycle.
However, just as Pei Qjan closed the report and browsed the webpage, he saw a
surprising news.
Shengyun Corporation and Upwind Logistics were on the hot searches!
