Group buying in online community: a new way of shopping

The picture comes from the Internet.

  "A box of fresh free range eggs 55 yuan, a piece of Pizza Hut steak 23 yuan, and a bag of pasta 17 yuan." On October 26, as soon as the group announcement of "Head of Mission" was released, the residents in the WeChat group responded quickly. In just a few minutes, the buyers had already picked up the long queue.
  Simple purchase, timely delivery, time-saving and labor-saving … As a new online shopping mode, online community group purchase is mainly carried out through the way that community residents buy online orders and then deliver them to the community in a unified way, which can not only help reduce logistics costs, but also help consumers avoid "difficulty in choosing" and effectively improve shopping efficiency.

Socialization and group buying win-win situation

  "The group dish group in our community was established last year by the elder sister who opened the laundry in the community. At that time, many people in the community organized dishes at his place. The group purchase price was cheap and the dishes were very fresh." Ms. Zhao, a citizen of Taiyuan, said that at first group buying was for convenience, and now it has gradually become a habit.
  In fact, the emergence of online community group buying has already changed people’s traditional consumption concept. The "team leader" posted a message in the group, and the user placed an order in advance as needed, and it could be delivered for delivery the next day. Through group buying, community residents can get goods at lower prices, and at the same time avoid the time and energy needed to go shopping in supermarkets.
  "Neighbors in the community often bask in the fresh dishes bought by the group. Everyone exchanges and interacts together, which not only brings the neighborhood closer, but also allows everyone to have a more intuitive understanding of the items bought by the group, because everyone is familiar with each other, which is different from the kind that is praised by online stores, and can help everyone avoid the pit more effectively." Ms. Zhao said that with the accelerated pace of life, like most young people, they are increasingly choosing online shopping, especially for food and daily necessities, and more consideration is given to price and delivery time.
  Obviously, social communication is an important driving force of community group buying, which can effectively expand the influence of group buying and attract more users to participate. But at the same time, social communication also faces some challenges, such as information overload, user loss, trust problems and so on.

Supervision and self-discipline go hand in hand.

  With the growing prosperity of the online community group buying market, large-scale e-commerce platforms and various new players are accelerating their entry, making the community group buying market more dispersed and diversified. For the residents of the community, some of the "heads" are familiar neighbors, but more are strangers.
  "Sometimes other people in the group don’t know what link to send, and it’s either a group buying applet or a stranger’s online shop." Ms. Zhao said that she chose to be trustworthy when buying a group. Instead of shopping in an unknown small program, she might as well place an order on big platforms such as JD.COM and Taobao.
  In fact, there are not a few people who step on the pit in online community group buying. A series of problems, such as false propaganda, substandard goods and shoddy goods, have also caused many consumers a headache. A few days ago, a case involving "community group buying" announced by the General Administration of Market Supervision said that in March this year, because the operator of a food store falsely exaggerated the function of disease prevention and treatment for ordinary food, it induced consumers to buy it, and was finally made by the local market supervision department. Administrative punishment was imposed and the final fine was 125,000 yuan.
  Is the group purchase activity reported? Where does the supply come from? Is delivery and refund guaranteed? ….. Faced with these problems, Shanxi Provincial Market Supervision Bureau issued "Guiding Opinions on Standardizing Group Buying Operation Behavior in Online Communities" (hereinafter referred to as "Opinions"), aiming at the group buying operation behavior in online communities, promoting the supervision mode of fair competition in online markets, realizing the whole chain, all fields and normalization supervision before and after the event, and promoting the healthy and sustainable development of group buying standardization in online communities.
  In terms of the prohibition of group buying in online communities, the Opinions clearly pointed out that unfair price behaviors such as low-price dumping, price collusion, price gouging and price fraud should not be implemented, and monopolistic behaviors should not be illegally implemented through monopoly agreements, abuse of market dominance, and illegal concentration of operators; Do not engage in acts of unfair competition such as commercial confusion, commercial slander, and speculation, which will endanger the market environment of fair competition; Do not deceive or mislead consumers in a false or misleading way.
  Lawyer Liang Yi of Shanxi Shuoming Law Firm reminds consumers that the formal platform is guaranteed in terms of goods quality, distribution and after-sales, and priority should be given to the community group purchase package organized by the formal network platform. Once the "head" is lost, goods are delayed for a long time, product quality problems, etc., relevant evidence materials will be provided to public security organs, market supervision and other departments in time to protect their legitimate rights and interests to the greatest extent. At the same time, it also warns merchants of group buying platforms that they must conscientiously abide by the E-commerce Law, the Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Online Transactions and other laws and regulations, and strengthen industry self-discipline, otherwise, they will face severe punishment.

Expand new channels of consumption

  In recent years, new consumption channels, such as online shopping, live delivery and community group buying, have risen rapidly, bringing huge business opportunities to the retail industry. In the first 10 months of this year, the online retail sales of physical goods nationwide increased by 8.4% year-on-year, accounting for 26.7% of the total retail sales of social consumer goods. The rise of new consumption channels is of great significance to promoting the recovery and development of physical retail industry.
  Online and offline exploration attempts have promoted the rise of new consumption channels. During the epidemic, more and more consumers gradually became familiar with and accepted consumption patterns such as instant retail and community group purchase. The new consumption channel provides consumers with a more convenient and personalized shopping experience, which not only reduces the shopping cost, but also meets diversified needs, and also urges online and offline businesses to move from competition to cooperation to achieve a win-win situation online and offline.
  On the one hand, new consumption channels have expanded the boundaries of the retail market. The traditional retail market is limited by geographical location and time, but the new consumption channels have broken these restrictions, allowing consumers to shop anytime and anywhere. This makes the retail market cover a wider range of consumer groups and provide more sales opportunities. Take instant retailing as an example. Consumers place orders on the online trading platform, and offline physical retailers take orders. From picking, packaging and delivery to door-to-door, it is basically completed within one hour, thus achieving the goal of "relying on local retail supply to meet local instant demand".
  On the other hand, new consumption channels have promoted the digital transformation of retail industry. In order to adapt to the development of new consumption channels, retailers have increased their investment in digital technology and promoted the digital transformation of the industry. Digital transformation not only improves the operational efficiency of retailers, but also provides consumers with a more convenient and intelligent shopping experience. With the help of online platform, entities can expand their sales channels, and at the same time, the sales data precipitated by online platform can help entities to operate more finely.
  We should also see that the rise of new consumption channels has also brought challenges to the retail industry. Not only is the competition increasingly fierce, but it also puts forward higher requirements for retailers’ data capabilities and supply chain management capabilities. In this regard, the retail industry should actively respond, seize new opportunities and meet challenges.
  Strengthen the research on new consumption channels, deeply understand consumers’ needs and shopping habits, and provide strong support for the development of new consumption channels. Facing the omni-channel competition brought by "embracing online", entity enterprises should use online to develop business, maintain and expand new consumer groups, reduce the cost of commodity distribution, and realize online and offline two-way drainage.
  Increase investment in digital technology and promote the in-depth development of digital transformation. Through digital technology to improve operational efficiency, optimize shopping experience, and provide consumers with more convenient and intelligent services. Online enterprises are not simply "1+1" with physical enterprises. They should use big data intelligent recommendation to achieve accurate matching between supply and demand, and constantly strengthen the capabilities of enterprise traffic support, marketing and digital systems to meet the diversified needs of consumers.
  Strengthen supply chain management and improve the flexibility and response speed of supply chain. Strengthen cooperation with suppliers to ensure product supply and inventory balance.
  New consumption channels have also played an important role in consumption expansion, industry innovation and social employment. Retail industry should seize new opportunities, continuously expand and make good use of new consumption channels by strengthening research, increasing investment and strengthening cooperation, so as to promote the consumer market to better meet consumers’ needs with richer and more more innovative business models and consumer goods, and stimulate new consumption.

Feng Qiyu

They were born inspired by the zodiac. Guess what car each animal represents, and you are a cow!

As we all know, the Logo of some car brands use an animal to symbolize the brand story, and they often listen to "cow", "horse" and "snake" as brands, but I wonder if the car names under the brand can make up all the types of the 12 Zodiacs? Maybe you haven’t heard of those car names.

Rat ranks first in the zodiac. However, in the story of the zodiac, its first place is not a glorious thing. It lied to the cat and played with the cow. The Jade Emperor refused at first, but you are joking. You can only declare the mouse as the first place in the zodiac. In real life, the living environment and body image of mice are very poor. How can a car factory name a "mouse crossing the street"? That is the rhythm of throwing eggs and bananas. It would be nice to have a tall name. Yes, there is no solution to this question and answer!

2. [Lamborghini Miura-cattle]

In fact, it’s not very wrong for MAUS to carry "mice" without mass production, and the second cow in the zodiac is really worthy of the name. Yes, you really think of it-Italian supercar Lamborghini, the brand Logo is taken from Taurus of the twelve constellations, the overall gas field emitted by the body lines is like an angry bull, and the name of the model series is also a famous bull that really exists in the history of bullfighting.

3: [Opel Tigra-Tiger]

Opel’s first generation Opel Tigra came out. It was built on the Corsa chassis. That is to say, it redesigned Corsa and turned it into a 2+2 coupe. The shadow of Corsa can be seen inside and outside. What kind of car is Corsa? Anyway, it doesn’t look like a tiger. However, Opel Tigra doesn’t look like a tiger either. The only thing that can be explained is the design of the B-pillar, which creates a direct sense of Tigra catching prey. The compact body with 1.4L or 1.6L engine is quite like a small steel gun, and its 1.4L and 1.6L can output 90 horsepower and 106 horsepower respectively. In addition, it also has a twin brother-Chevrolet Tigra, and these two little tigers are very popular in the hands of modified players abroad (it seems that Tigra is very vivid in appearance).

4. [VW golf (rabbit)-rabbit]

The backbone of Volkswagen Group is the well-known VW Golf. Golf models have an exclusive name-Rabbit, the origin of which is named. It needs to go back to the 1970s, and the Beetle, which once created great wealth and glory for the VW family, is drawing to a close. Volkswagen Group is determined to launch a brand-new car series to replace the Beetle’s status as a national car, and it is also a "cheap car" as a starting point.

5: [Dongfeng CA71-Dragon]

Dragon, as a kind of deity created by the ancient people in China by combining various animals and celestial phenomena, is naturally a spiritual symbol of great power. When it comes to China people’s first car, some people in the mainland say it is "Hongqi CA71" and some people in Taiwan Province say it is "Jinlong CA71", but the most correct name is Dongfeng CA71. In 1958, it was produced by China FAW Factory. It was designed with reference to the modeling of French Simca Vedette, and the details were added with China national characteristics (for example, the dragon Logo on the front of the car and the lantern-shaped taillight design on the rear of the car). As for the "Golden Dragon" in Taiwan Province, it came from the three-dimensional logo of the dragon on the front of the car.

6: [Dodge Viper-Snake]

For those fans who like to enjoy super sports cars silently, Viper, the top performance sports car owned by Dodge, will not be unfamiliar, while Viper is a general term for about 200 kinds of poisonous snakes, and their digestive systems are very powerful. Some of them start to digest while swallowing, and even spit out bones. Don’t say it, I’m so scared!

To some extent, the Dodge Viper is equally frightening. Since 1992, the first generation of Viper has been equipped with an 8.0L V10 engine. If you can correctly interpret these two numbers, I believe that what you see is not the strength of 400hp, but since then, 8.4L V10, or even a thousand horsepower models have appeared, which attracts the wild swing of the tail at any time. Viper, like a frightened viper in a man-machine contest, is really difficult to control. However, Americans are naturally wild and nervous, and with the appearance of American muscles and the fluent lines of super sports cars, there are many fans who fall in love with snake venom.

7: [Hyundai Pony-Horse]

Speaking of horses, it is easy to think of BMW and Ferrari. However, this is not the name of the car. Apart from the well-known Maxima, Thunderbolt and Mustang entering the China market, in fact, everything in the world has a growth process, that is to say, it is not born so big. Before it becomes a big horse, it will always go through the period of pony. In the automobile world, the models named Pony are Hyundai Pony and Mustang Pony. The originator of the word "Pony" was Ford Mustang (named in 1965), while Hyundai Pony appeared in 1975, both of which are products of the same era, and there is no generation gap problem, but one of them is very tasty.

8: [Yulong Flying antelope 101-sheep]

"Tangle Lun" endorsed "Na Zhijie", and more people quickly learned about a new brand. However, many friends didn’t know that it was the brand of Yulong Automobile Manufacturing Co., Ltd., and Yulong’s "Flying Eagle 101" was the first self-designed vehicle in the history of China Taiwan Province automobile industry.

Flying antelope, a medium-sized African antelope, was named after Yulong’s high-level officials who went to Africa and saw a vigorous antelope. No, no, no! In other words, do you know the origin of the "ADIDAS" logo of Geely brand in its early years? The Logo was obtained through a large reward.

9: [Ford escort-monkey]

After Ford Escort(1968-2004) stopped production, its replacement model became Focus, and Escort returned to the market, and it is now Forrest. The word Escort means "Escort". In that year, the first generation of escort was introduced and put into production in Taiwan Province, and it was named "Yashi", and by the way, it was nicknamed "Little King Kong" (the monkey is sharp, and it was planned to summon the dragon 40 years ago).

10: [Plymouth superbird-chicken]

In the 1920s, under the leadership of NASCAR events in the south of the United States, Stock Racing culture became popular all over the United States, and the streets and stadiums in the United States were almost full of cars with reinforced models. Under this environment, a model was born-Plymouth (acquired by Chrysler) launched Road Runner Superbird.

Chickens belong to birds. Nissan has a "blue bird" and Plymouth has a "Superbird". Obviously, the most appropriate car in the context is the Super Bird. It has a low flat front, exaggerated aerodynamic kit, slender whole car lines and super-large tail, and its body is lightweight, which is a sports car built to win NASCAR events.

11: [Aston Martin Bulldog-Dog]

Aston Martin has always walked the rivers and lakes in an elegant and noble manner. However, back then, it released a concept car named Bulldog. This was a design project named DP K9.01 (code name) in 1979. Aston Martin was born in Britain, but it is a Zuotuo model. There is no information to show it, so it is impossible to study it carefully. However, since it is a concept car, it doesn’t matter.

Bulldog is equipped with a 5.3L twin-turbo V8 engine, which can output 600hp maximum horsepower and 678 N·m maximum torque. What’s important is that its length is about 4.7 meters, its height is less than 1.1 meters, its sharp lines and gull-wing doors set an astonishing speed of 307 km/h (191 mph) in the same year. Unfortunately, there is only one Aston Martin Bulldog (pictured below) in the world, and the other 24 cars have disappeared from the earth.

12: [Porsche 917/20 Pink Pig-Pig]

Porsche 917 has the reputation of "the most beautiful racing car in the world", but 917/20 is like a beautiful accident. Its car body is greatly widened, and the wheel arch is rounded and thrown outward. The original slender body lines of 917 K/917 L are obviously fattened on 917/20. After seeing this racing car, Martini (the main sponsor of Porsche) thinks that 917/20 is longer. The Porsche Car Factory also laughed at itself, changed its body into pink paint, and then marked the pork cutting pattern on the body (pig body) with dotted lines. Later, people began to call it "Pink Big".

However, there is no doubt that the 917/20 is definitely a product of "dressing up as a pig to eat a tiger", and its straight and curved performance exceeds that of the 917.
K, unfortunately, because of the failure of the braking system, Pink Big appeared in the competition for a short time, but its unique shape and painting were deeply reflected in people’s hearts, and it was also in 24 Hours.
Write a cordial page in the history of of Le Mans racing.

Focus on the "Qingdao Power" in the Asian Games | rugby field!

Yuan Meng, chief correspondent of the peninsula’s all-media

The rugby event of Hangzhou Asian Games ended on the evening of September 26th. In the end, the men’s and women’s teams finished third and fourth and the first and second place finals were exciting. China men’s team lost to Japan in the third and fourth finals, ranking fourth; The women’s rugby team of China, which reached the final of the first and second place, thrillingly beat the Japanese team by one point, which not only avenged her defeat by her opponent at the Asian Games in Jakarta five years ago, but also realized her desire to win the championship at home. The exciting and fierce competition attracted tens of thousands of spectators to watch the game on the spot. And the whole Asian Games rugby match can be carried out smoothly, and there is also a force contributed by Qingdao people.

Both male and female football coaches are from Qingdao.

China women’s football team beat Japanese women’s football team 22: 21 in the final. At the moment of winning the championship, Lu Zhuan, the head of the Chinese coaching team of the women’s team, blushed excitedly. At the Tokyo Olympic Games two years ago, he broke into the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games for the first time with China women’s football, creating the best result in team history. Now, she has led the girls who play football to make history again.

Lu Zhuan, who is about to enter the age of no doubt, is a native of Qingdao. When he was young, he was selected by the People’s Liberation Army rugby team because of his outstanding sports performance. In this top football team in China, Lu Zhuan has grown rapidly and become the main force of the national team. Together with his teammates, he won the 2006 World Cup Sevens Rugby Series Bowl Championship in Hong Kong. After the Liaoning National Games in 2013, Lu Zhuan ended his 11-year career as an athlete and turned to be a coach.

Similar to his experience, Lu Xiaohui is now the head coach of the China rugby men’s team. As a Qingdao native, Lu Xiaohui is more than 10 years older than Lu Zhuan. He is one of the first professional football players in China. In the 1990s, when rugby first entered China, Lu Xiaohui was admitted to the rugby team of China Agricultural University from Qingdao.

Lu Zhuan (right), coach of China women’s rugby team, took a group photo with Hong Zhe, an international technical official. Both of them are from Qingdao.

Lu Xiaohui’s professional experience is very rich. After graduating from college, he was invited to be a "foreign aid" for two years by the rugby club in China and Hongkong. In 2004, he began to lead the national women’s football team. "I led the team to win the first Asian champion of women’s football in 2006." Lu Xiaohui recalled. At the end of 2009, Lu Xiaohui returned to his hometown and picked up the coach of Shandong Men’s Olive. Because of his excellent performance, he also got the opportunity to coach the national team.

Both Lu Zhuan and Lu Xiaohui have achieved the goals set before the game when they led the team to the Asian Games. Compared with the gold medal of the women’s team, the results of the men’s team’s top four are not bright, but considering that China started late, especially compared with the world’s top teams such as Japan and South Korea, China’s men’s football team has made remarkable progress in recent years, and it has not fallen behind against Japan and South Korea. "After the Asian Games, we are going to play the Olympic qualifiers immediately, and the task is still relatively heavy. I hope that the Olympic qualifiers in the future can make up for the regret of this competition." Lu Xiaohui and reporters said.

There are also many Qingdao people in the technical team.

Walking off the podium, Lu Zhuan happily took a group photo with several staff members. When I opened my mouth, I found that it was all Qingdao accent. "There are 11 Qingdao people in the football competition team of this Asian Games." Liu Jifeng, who is in charge of the competition operation, and the reporter introduced.

Liu Jifeng is about the same age as Lu Xiaohui, and he is also one of the earliest football players in China. Lao Liu was admitted to Shanghai Institute of Physical Education. After graduating from Shanghai Institute of Physical Education in 1999, he studied rugby rules at his own expense and became a national referee. After eight years as a referee, Liu Jifeng devoted more energy to organizing rugby matches and promoting the sport.

"For the Asian Games held at our doorstep, our competition operation team came to Hangzhou two years in advance, worked intermittently for more than a year, and stayed in Hangzhou for the last two months, mainly to ensure the smooth operation of the event, and then to protect our national team." Liu Jifeng said.

Qingdao referees and technical officials who participated in the rugby match of this Asian Games took a group photo with the women’s team coach Lu Zhuan after the game.

Qingdao people who participated in the rugby match operation team of this Asian Games also included Teng Liang of the competition operation team, Hong Zhe, an international technical official, Kou Yong, Ai Bin, Guo Xiaohui, Jiang Gangan, Wang Tingting, Yin Linmeng, Tan Xueshuai and Song Shun, domestic technical officials. They all have experience in rugby, and many of them are former star players. Like the young Wang Tingting, she once won the third place in the women’s rugby team on behalf of the national team at the 2014 Nanjing Youth Olympic Games. Jiang Gangan won the rugby women’s team championship in Incheon Asian Games on behalf of China in 2014, and won the rugby women’s team championship in Asian Championships for two consecutive years in 2015 and 2016.

Hong Zhe, an international technical official, currently works in Qingdao Compulsory Isolation Drug Rehabilitation Center and has been a rugby referee for 15 years. "In recent years, the rugby referee team in our country has been growing, and it is very necessary to test it through high-level competitions such as the Asian Games. This time, we successfully completed the task and were recognized by officials and technical representatives of international rugby organizations. " Hong Wei said.

Start early and have plenty of reserve forces.

Men’s rugby sevens entered the Asian Games family in 1998, and women’s rugby officially became a competition in the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games. Because this sport combines technology, wisdom, physical strength, speed and other elements, the intensity of confrontation is much higher than that of football and basketball, so it is highly observable.

With rugby officially becoming an Olympic and Asian Games event, the sport, which was slightly "unpopular", has attracted more and more attention in China. Many Qingdao rugby players participated in this Asian Games in Hangzhou, which is enough to show the development level of Qingdao rugby.

China women’s football team took a group photo with the technical officials after winning the championship.

Qingdao rugby has always occupied a very important position in the national rugby field. This is mainly due to the early launch of this sport in Qingdao. Since the 1990s, Beijing Agricultural University, Shanghai Institute of Physical Education, PLA Institute of Physical Education and other institutions of higher learning have begun to recruit rugby talents. Qingdao players are generally favored because of their excellent physical condition, flexibility and coordination.

In 1998, Qingdao established the first rugby club in China, Shark Rugby Club. More and more Qingdao children began to contact and engage in rugby. In the rugby competition of the 25th Sports Meeting in Shandong Province, which ended last year, the four teams of men and women in Qingdao Basketball Rugby Center won a champion, two runners-up and a third runner-up, and won a total of 12.5 gold medals according to the scoring method of rugby events, ranking first in the province in the gold medal list. This fully shows the strength of Qingdao rugby junior talents at present.

"Now there are more and more retired players in Qingdao who have transformed into referees and technical officials. Qingdao rugby has developed very well as a whole. I hope that competitions like the Asian Games can further exercise our referee team and drive more Qingdao people to participate in this sport in the future." Liu Jifeng said.
