Just like that.
Regarding Singles’ Day.
The Conference room immediately started a discussion.
In the end,
they felt,
other than this, they couldn’t think of a better plan. Singles’ Day – the term itself is very popular. Ma Yun thanked, "Chairman Tang, thank you for providing such a good idea."
"As it should be, go register the trademark with the National Trademark Bureau as soon as possible; I’ll give it to the company for free." Tang Qing said with a smile. As the Company’s largest Shareholder, coming up with an idea shouldn’t cost money; he wasn’t that bored.
Hearing it was for free,
Ma Yun expressed his gratitude again.
"Thank you, after the meeting, we will immediately start preparing for this year’s Singles’ Day. Regarding Singles’ Day, Chairman Tang, is there anything else you would like to add?"
Tang Qing thought for a moment.
There really wasn’t anything to add.
This festival,
is just about discounting, discounting, discounting... Oh yes, "This festival lets Merchants decide the extent of the discounts, but many Merchants adopt the practice of increasing prices first and then offering discounts, which could damage our reputation!"
Such chaos,
Tang Qing also wanted to avoid as much as possible.
The discount should be just as it is supposed to be; doubling the price first and then giving a fifty percent discount is outright brazen Fraud. Sometimes, the prices might even be higher than before the discounts, and definitely, the Platform would be blamed.
"This is also why we want to standardize the platform and launch Taobao Mall directly. We cannot participate in pricing. All consumption activities are between individuals and Merchants and besides, the law does not hold the majority accountable."
"Then that’s all. You may continue."
Afterward,
Ma Yun continued the meeting.
Until it ended,
Tang Qing did not make any further comments; the company had mature Management and operational systems. Other than these kinds of ’emerging situations’, everything else was proceeding in an orderly fashion.
During that time,
they also discussed the issue of Going Public.
Eventually,
they decided to store the capital raised first for future use.
Currently, Ali spends a lot of money, but there are also incoming funds to offset it. The main costs are in e-commerce. Now, after collaborating with Xiao Xiao, even the leasing fee for Servers has been greatly reduced.
It’s not that they weren’t paying a penny,
but that they could pay annually.
...
Inside the car,
Tang Qing was waiting for Lin Jiaxue to finish School.
While reading the News.
"Thump thump thump ..."
The car window was knocked.
The muffled sound showed how sturdy this car window was. Tang Qing looked up and saw a pretty young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed simply but cleanly, holding a sign.
It read ’Thank You.’
"..."
Tang Qing rolled down the window and smiled, "Young lady, what’s the matter?"
"Ah... Ah... Ah..."
She stuttered for a while.
Pointing to the sign, the scene was almost saying ’I am mute.’ The intention of the sign was clear, probably here to ask for money. Tang Qing had often encountered this when he was distributing Business cards in the streets before.
On the streets.
While eating.
In the Metro.
He had really seen it quite a lot.
At that time,
Tang Qing generally ignored them because nobody knew if it was real.
"Can you hear?"
Upon hearing this,
the girl nodded vigorously.
"Do you want to cure your throat?" Tang Qing asked.
The information showed that she wasn’t a Swindler but actually mute. Her family was very poor, with an elder sister and an ailing, bedridden mother. Her sister had always been the one working to pay for their mother’s Treatment and supporting their family.
Since she needed to take care of her mother,
she had dropped out of School and was self-studying!
She’s almost seventeen.
Because she couldn’t be reassured.
She just asked her to stay at home and take care of their mother.
Otherwise, her sister would be worried about her younger sister encountering bad people, and not being able to call out, which would be troublesome. Today, she must have sneaked out behind her sister’s back, wanting to help lighten her sister’s load at home.
It has to be said.
It’s quite inspirational.
Since she is not an orphan, she could not receive assistance from the "Huaxia Little Angel Charity Foundation," nor is she seriously ill to the extent of qualifying for national medical loans, so she must gather the medical expenses herself.
This point.
Tang Qing knows it.
Huaxia Little Angel Charity Foundation only helps orphans, and the subsequent efforts of the foundation resulted in the state providing medical loans for serious illnesses to individuals, ensuring that no one would forego treatment due to a lack of funds.
However.
There is still a group of people who are not covered.
That includes her type.
Not life-threatening.
Such people, who usually do not need medication to sustain their lives, even in the Myanmar Economic Zone, ICBC does not provide medical loans for non-serious conditions originating from Huaxia.
Hearing about treatment.
The young girl shook her head vigorously.
This matter.
She had heard more than once, but all those people had ill intentions. Her sister also said that if anyone mentioned this to her, she should walk away as far as possible and never look back.
However.
Seeing Tang Qing’s amiable face.
Her feet seemed unable to move.
Seeing that the girl didn’t recognize herself.
"Very cautious, I’m not bad... Forget it, tomorrow, take this and go to the company address above. Someone will receive you there. If you don’t trust me, you can let someone you trust check my name online and accompany you."
Saying this.
Tang Qing handed her a metal ’business card’.
It only contained a name.
No phone number at all.
Let alone a title.
Such a business card.
It’s not meant for making acquaintances, but rather acts like a ’token’. With the token, one can get something done. To differentiate, Tang Qing’s business cards come in five varieties, each with a specific purpose.
The girl took it dubiously.
---Tang Qing.
It sounded familiar.
But she couldn’t recall where from at the moment.
Performing a good deed daily.
This wasn’t something Tang Qing did for her alone.
It was actually a planned project by the Comet Group; each of its subsidiary companies has its ’mandate’ in charity. Sheng Tang Group primarily donates to out-of-school children and builds schools in mountainous areas, donating learning materials and clothes.
Comet Group, on the other hand, focuses on deaf and mute individuals.
The project was initiated not long ago.
And not advertised.
Otherwise.
The threshold would absolutely be overrun. Now, this project is being negotiated with the Myanmar Medical Group to see if they can provide some discounts, planning to help five thousand impoverished deaf and mute individuals annually for free.
Doing so.
Wouldn’t cost billions annually.
Moreover, these billions are flowing into the Myanmar Medical Group, and after deducting costs, it would essentially be a shuffle of funds from one hand to the other, with the real expenditure not exceeding ten million Asia Dollars.
This approach.
Also serves as a lead and initiation.
As the model matures, Chai Ren also stated he would donate some money every year for the Comet Group to use for this purpose, and he plan to get friends involved too. Hence, it’s not just Tang Qing spending money.
It’s also the breakthroughs in medical technology there.
Otherwise.
Even if he had the intention.
He wouldn’t have a place to implement the treatment.
At this moment.
Lin Jiaxue came out of school.
"Tangtang, what’s wrong?"
Seeing the girl standing not knowing what to do, Lin Jiaxue asked curiously, followed by Zeng Rou and several other girls ready to join them for a meal; the ’March’ model has nine seats, which can comfortably accommodate them.
"Nothing much, I’ll tell you about it later, get in the car first," Tang Qing said.
Lin Jiaxue and the girls boarded the car.
Watching the departing ’March’, which looked very expensive, she looked at the so-called ’business card’ in her hand. The girl stood still for a while, then carefully tucked it away, planning to go back and ask someone about it.
