In the end, the turnover of Jingdong Shopping Mall on the first day of its launch was fixed at 45.766 million Huaxia yuan. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Compared with Su Ningyi's results, the amount is indeed a little inadequate, but for Dong Qiang and others, it is undoubtedly a quite exciting result.
With such results, it is enough to show that the establishment of Jingdong is an instant hit.
What they have to do next is to continuously consolidate Jingdong's reputation in the minds of customers and strengthen Jingdong's advantages in professionalism and service.
It's a long process, but Dong Qiang and his entrepreneurial partners are confident.
Because they have already taken the most critical step.
Regarding the future development, Bai Ningyuan and Dong Qiang have talked many times and have a clear understanding.
After Jingdong was launched, Bai Ningyuan took the time to accompany Zhang Zilin to shoot the MV of "Welcome to the Capital".
Fortunately, the shooting of this MV is not like recording a song, which requires strong singing skills, and after many years of modeling career and a year of experience as Miss World, Zhang Zilin is no stranger to these shootings, and it took more than half a day to complete the shooting of this MV.
After being busy with these, the next event is the highlight, which is the charity dinner held for Zhang Zilin.
Up to now, during his tenure as Miss World for nearly a year, Zhang Zilin has traveled around the world to engage in charity and public welfare activities, and has raised nearly 32 million US dollars, creating a new record for Sister Shi to raise donations.
It's just that more of these donations come from abroad, especially in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, there are still more people who are loyal to charity, and Zhang Zilin's name as a sister is obviously quite recognized, as for her own motherland, there are not many donations so far, for Zhang Zilin, who received a Chinese nationality, I have to say that this is a pity.
Although she has also raised some funds in her work these days, the effect is not ideal.
It can only be said that in the minds of ordinary Chinese people, there is still a gap in the understanding of charity.
After all, don't look at the continuous improvement of the living standards of Chinese people, but there is still a considerable distance from wealth, and the pressure of life itself is very great.
Of course, these small acts of kindness of ten or twenty yuan, the Chinese people have never been stingy and generous.
In other words, in China, there is no lack of foundation and soil for charity, but only the living standard of the people, which has not yet reached a certain height.
Bai Ningyuan understands Zhang Zilin's thoughts, so he is willing to help her and push her to go higher and further, so there is this charity dinner that has been planned for a long time and hosted by Lo International.
Although Huaxia has always had a not-so-good sense of businessmen, it is undeniable that people often want to do something different after reaching a certain height.
As early as August, the invitation to this charity dinner has been distributed to everyone through various channels, and among the people who were invited, there were many rich people on the rich list of Hu Tong and Forbes, tycoons who had a good relationship with Bai Ningyuan, and some high-level people and industry elites, of course, the most were all kinds of stars in the entertainment industry.
Don't look at many times, they can't be compared with those tycoons and wealthy officials in terms of status, but it is undeniable that because of their popularity, they are still very good in terms of appeal.
Or, this kind of dinner party itself also has a bit of the nature of Vanity Fair, which even Bai Ningyuan can't avoid.
After all, in this world, there is never a shortage of all kinds of transactions hidden under the light.
The venue for the dinner was the St. Regis Garden at the Capital International Club Hotel.
As a super five-star hotel in Beijing, the Beijing International Club Hotel is a model of luxury hotels, and the famous St. Regis Garden, with an outdoor usable area of 19,685 square feet, is enough to cope with the many guests invited to the charity dinner.
In fact, when Bai Ningyuan chose the location, he did not consider using the comprehensive hall of the Lo International Building, after all, the area there is definitely large enough, for the Lo International, the organizer of the charity dinner, it is also a publicity, but later he denied it, after all, this is a high-standard charity reception, and the participants basically have a considerable status in China, and if they are located in the hotel, whether it is facilities or services, they will be very thoughtful.
Since the morning, the hotel has been preparing for the dinner intensively.
Don't look at this dinner, there is not much publicity to the outside world, almost no fame, but the hotel is very clear inside, the people who participated in the dinner, are some big people, the arrival of these people, for the hotel itself is also an affirmation, let them feel and honored, as long as they entertain the dinner well, it is equivalent to a living advertisement in front of these big people, such advertising opportunities, really lanterns can not be found.
Because of this, for the cost of this dinner, the hotel gave Lo International a considerable discount.
In addition, in addition to the security team hired by Lo International, the hotel also specially sent security guards to cooperate with the security work of the dinner, for this, it is not only Lo International that is important, but also the hotel also understands the stakes, after all, every guest here is not a simple person, once something goes wrong here, for their hotel, it is definitely a stain that cannot be settled in a short time.
Not to mention anything else, at least their reputation, in the upper circles, is considered a waste.
Not only the security, but also the raw materials for the meals, the hotel also takes great pains to make the top raw materials in the world or in China.
Now there is curling green smoke on the shelf, and the whole roast lamb with an attractive meaty aroma continues to emerge under the charcoal fire, using the less than one-year-old Yanchitan sheep, which was selected as a state banquet-level product for the G20 summit to entertain foreign heads of state in the previous life.
Other ingredients, such as beef, are made from juicy and tender wagyu beef, which is low in saturated fatty acids in muscle fat, and almost exclusively uses the small tenderloin that is the essence of each cow.
For example, oilseeds, whether it's Omni olive oil from the Apennines or first-class pressed peanut oil, are top-of-the-line products at a high price.
For example, the chickens are all imported from France, freshly slaughtered on the same day, and transported by air, each of which is worth a lot of money.
Iberian ham, pearl sturgeon caviar, white truffle and French foie gras were also seen at the banquet, each of which was worth as much as gold.
And fruits, in addition to those famous special fruits in China, fresh fruits airlifted from all over the world are also there no shortage of them on the scene, as small as a piece of orange, as large as a watermelon, all of which are so.
As far as desserts are concerned, there are dozens of pastry chefs on site, responsible for desserts and cold drinks from seven or eight different countries such as Chinese, French, and Italian.
Needless to say, the "Grand Vinde ChatourLatour" from Latour, one of the five major châteaux in the Bordeaux region, and the "Red Face" from Obiang, are known for their high price and quality when they appear on weekdays, and almost every one of them can cause collectors and followers to scream, but at today's dinner, there are as many as several boxes of bottles, which makes people feel a little dazzled.
After this banquet, the cost of eating this item alone is enough to reach seven figures, which can be called luxury, even if it is Bai Ningyuan, it is the first time that he has done such luxury.
There is no way, after all, the grade of the person who comes is here, and sometimes, the matter of face must be done in place.
Regarding the specific process of this charity dinner, Bai Ningyuan and the advertising company responsible for hosting it have communicated more than ten times, striving for excellence in every detail, and even treating it with rigor, which is no less than CCTV's Spring Festival Gala.
In the afternoon, Bai Ningyuan and Zhang Zilin took back the customized clothes, because Zhang Zilin has a very good relationship with the fashion master Giorgio Armani, so whether it is Bai Ningyuan or Zhang Zilin's dress, it is naturally from Armani.
Although it is not a specially designed clothes designed by a master, as a world-renowned fashion brand, Armani never disappoints, especially tailor-made clothes like this, so after changing it, Bai Ningyuan's senses immediately went up a notch.
If Bai Ningyuan before made people feel that it was just attractive, then at least when he dresses up now, it will make people feel heroic at first glance, as for Zhang Zilin, Rao is Bai Ningyuan has already seen every side of her, but at this moment, he still has a feeling of being amazed.
This is a bean paste red light-colored dress, with a pure black long hair shawl on the outside, with some dense auspicious cloud decorations, just matching the elements that are now popular in China, the tight-fitting fabric shows her bumpy and convex good figure to the fullest, and a pair of bright gold high heels looming, which looks seductive.
At this time, the temperature in the capital is already in the single digits, although she knows that she is wearing warm inside, but this dress that is completely opposite to the current season still gives people a strong visual impact.
"Is it good-looking?" Seeing that Bai Ningyuan's eyes were a little straight, Zhang Zilin turned around in front of him lightly, and then said jokingly, and when Bai Ningyuan came back to his senses, he gently grabbed his arm, glanced at him deeply, and carefully got into Bai Ningyuan's iconic RV and went straight to the direction of the hotel.
Tonight was also a battle for her......
