Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1569 Thesis

“Every industry has its own merits.”

“That’s right.
The delivery man is really awesome to be able to deliver food to this extent.
His hardwork is worthy of the salary of more than ten thousand yuan a month.”

“It might be physical work but it is much more comfortable than working in the factory and construction site.
It is no wonder that there are so many delivery men.
This industry is indeed profitable.”

“I think some deliverymen complain that their salary is low, but they are actually inefficient.
Look at the delivery men.
Can’t they get a salary of more than ten thousand yuan a month? That’s much higher than the salary of many white-collar workers.”

“However, there are many prerequisites to obtain so much money.” “So what if there are many prerequisites? If others can do it, you can’t.
Isn’t that because you’re not efficient? Food delivery is indeed making money, but it’s not a place to raise lazy people.
You can’t increase your efficiency if you’re lazy.
You don’t provide better service to customers.
Of course, you make less money.”

Many viewers were impressed by the delivery men’s exciting performance.
They even envied them.

After all, many people’s salaries were not even as high as those delivery men.

The last segment was the main focus after introducing the daily work of these delivery men.

The staff who recorded the program asked the delivery men a few questions.
One of the questions was whether they were willing to rest more.
For example, they had to rest for 10 minutes after accumulating deliveries for an hour to prevent over-exhaustion.

Alternatively, they could agree on a single limit every day.
If they exceed this limit, they would not be able to accept more orders.

Or perhaps there was a rule that no more than 10 units could be received at the same time.

He had thought that this would reduce the burden on the delivery guys but he did not expect the delivery guys to object unanimously.

“Of course not.
Why did you do that?”

“Did such a rule consider our feelings?”

“We don’t need to rest.
We just want to earn money.
Rest for 10 minutes and we’ll earn less money.”

“I can take 15 orders at a time now.
If you forcefully reduce it to 10 orders, what about the remaining five orders?”

“That’s right.
The development of such rules cannot be just a slap in the head.
You have to consider it from our perspective.”

All the delivery men were unanimously against these opinions.

There might be no clear statement of the specific views in this video but the take-out could still be in the comments section.
It could guide public opinion by expressing some obviously inclined comments.

Such public opinion was concentrated in two aspects.

First, emphasize that the food delivery industry was an industry that worked a lot.
The hard work of the delivery men were their own choices.
Even if the food delivery platform wanted to lower the requirements of the delivery men and ask them to accept fewer orders, the delivery men would not accept it.

Second, emphasize that the take-out platform had already given many subsidies to the delivery men, businessmen, and customers.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to achieve the high salary of the delivery men and the cheap delivery fees of the platform.

This argument was similar to what Shengyun Express had said previously.
They only needed three yuan to deliver the goods from merchants to their homes.
What were they not satisfied with?

Weren’t these cheap delivery fees and the cornerstone of the delivery guys’ high income all created by the platform of home delivery?

This was obviously a counterattack to the previous person-in-charge’s talk about dismantling the take-out routine.

What’s more, the effect was not bad.
That was because such comments were indeed confusing!

Coupled with the attitude of the seller in the video, it looked more convincing.

What’s more, everyone knew that most of the other delivery men had the same attitude.
They only worked as delivery men to earn money.
If they limited their number of orders and working hours, they would have a lot of opinions.

Pei Qian looked at Ma Yang.
“Old Ma, what do you think of this video?”

Old Ma scratched his head.
“I think there’s a problem somewhere, but I can’t put my finger on it.”

Pei Qian nodded slightly.
He saw more than Old Ma and could roughly explain some

things.

However, he did not intend to deal with take-out for the time being because the current take-out platform was still a relatively positive and healthy platform.

These internet innovation platforms might have had a series of negative effects after forming a monopoly position, but they were still positive and improved under the current situation.

It was just like the impact that the online appointment platform had on the taxi industry.
All sorts of problems would appear after the platform monopolized it, but it had indeed facilitated the industry at the beginning.
It integrated the needs and had a lot of meaning to improve.

Many things had to be looked at from two angles.
They had to be honest, objective, and fair.

Of course, these words from home delivery could not withstand investigation.
Once they were serious, they would realize that there were various problems behind it.

On one hand, his merits could not be contradicted.
He had contributed.
He could not deny the objective problems of the platform.

On the other hand, even if these platforms made some progress, it could not stop more outstanding platforms from replacing them.

However, Pei Qian felt that there was no need to completely kill these platforms now.
He could let them be active for a while more.

The fight against the Tengda Alliance gave Pei Qian some hope.

It was not only Pei Qian’s hope, but also the entire industry’s hope.

Through this battle of public opinion, everyone would be able to understand the tricks and understand the problems more clearly.
Only then could it guide the industry in the right direction.

Was Tengda’s principle indisputable? Could Tengda always be right? Of course, Pei Qian did not think so.

In fact, Pei Qian felt that the person-in-charge was saying that this segment was a little too smooth.
Every time he dismantled a plot, he would be welcomed by ordinary people.
This influence was actually a double-edged sword.
There was danger.

Pei Qian hoped that ordinary people could also listen to other opinions and think independently to judge something.
Whether it was right or wrong, they would not completely follow Tengda.

“Alright, that’s all for today.
I’m going back to rest.”

Pei Qian stood up and prepared to leave.

April 21st, Sunday night.

Yu Pingan finally ended his work for the day and said goodbye to Master Li.

Master Li raised his thumb and praised him.
“Not bad, young man.
You’ve been getting more and more efficient over the past few days.
I believe you’ll be able to graduate soon!”

“I really didn’t expect a literary person like you to be able to do this job.
Your perseverance is commendable.”

Yu Pingan shook his head in shame.
“Ai, no, Master Li.
I’m still far from you.”

Master Li smiled.
“Familiarity begets skill.
Most of the time, you would feel around and squeeze it out.
The more urgent you are about money, the faster the delivery would be.”

“According to my observations, you should not be short of money.
It’s not easy for you to experience life in the lower level.”

Yu Pingan did not want to explain anything.
He nodded.
“Thank you for your care recently, Master Li.
I won’t be coming tomorrow.”

Yu Pingan was only a deliveryman for the residential takeaways.
He was not considered a fixed authorization.
What’s more, his main job was still at Fish-Catching Take-Out.
He had to work normally from Monday to Friday.
He could only experience the home takeaways when he was free on Saturday and Sunday.

Fish-Catching Take-Out’s delivery men had a five-day working system.
They took two days off a week.
It might not be on a certain day.

Yu Pingan was here to experience life on the lower level after all.
Thus, he received some care in this area and arranged for his break over the weekend.

Yu Pingan was walking back on his scooter.
He was still thinking about the hard work he had put in over the past two days when he suddenly looked up and met a familiar face.

“Eh, isn’t that Teacher Wang?”

Yu Pingan stopped his electric car, and so did the other party.

Both of them were wearing take-out clothes from home.
They looked at each other, feeling like they were looking into the mirror.

Yu Pingan was a little surprised.
“Teacher Wang, didn’t you say that you wanted to write a thesis about take-out? Then you are…”

Teacher Wang smiled.
“I have to write a thesis, and the thesis is about to be written.
I will only have a say after in-depth investigation.
I deliver food during the day and write the thesis at night.”

Yu Pingan suddenly understood.
“I said that I would share the life of a food deliveryman with you and help you write your thesis.
I didn’t expect you to do it yourself!”

Teacher Wang was a young lecturer at Handong University who taught sociology.

He was also a cooperative lecturer with the application and Bunny Tail Live-Stream.
He had many unique views on social issues.

Teacher Wang took out his cell phone to see Yu Pingan talk about the thesis.
“Look, my thesis is almost completed.
This is the abstract of the thesis.”

Yu Pingan took the cell phone and saw the title of the thesis: “Labor Order Under Digital Control”.

The subtitle went in the direction of the thesis: “Labor Controller’s Research”.

From the summary, this thesis was researched from the perspective of organization technology and science technology, the labor process of selling external cavalry.

The platform company seemed to have given up direct management of the cavalry but it was actually to dilute the responsibilities of the employer.
The labor conflict was also correspondingly transferred to the platform system and consumers.

Digital control was upgraded from a physical computer equipment to a virtual software and data platform system.
The data results were reflected in the hands of the cavalry, making the labor order possible.

Digital control not only weakened the sense of resistance of the cavalry, but also ate up the space for them to exert their autonomy.
It also made them participate in the management of themselves unknowingly.
Thus, the means of capital control not only changed from authoritarian to hegemony, but also from physical to virtual.

After reading the summary briefly, Yu Pingan’s first impression was that it was very deep and difficult to understand.

However, he believed that he could at least answer half of his confusion by thinking about this thesis carefully.

Yu Pingan had also seen the video that was sold outside.

He vaguely felt that this video seemed to have deliberately muddled certain problems and caused some mistakes to the audience.
However, Yu Pingan was not sure where the mistakes were from the surface of the video.

Especially what the delivery guy had said.
It could really express the voices of basic practitioners who desperately wanted to make money.

Even Yu Pingan himself had some doubts.
Could Fish-Catching Take-Out’s model and home delivery model actually co-exist?

Fish-Catching Take-Out’s delivery guys were indeed much more blissful than those from Home Take-Out.
That was because their work was guaranteed, their working hours and working environment were also relatively guaranteed.

However, Fish-Catching Take-Out could not possibly eat all the delivery men after all.
What’s more, this model could not be applicable to all the merchants.

Shengyun Corporation had been suppressed by Upwind Logistics because Shengyun Corporation had indeed aroused public anger.

Everyone knew that he was ugly.

It was the same for Home Corporation’s rental business.
That was because these two companies had more or less occupied the market, so they did not restrain themselves.

However, take-out was different.
It had not occupied a true dominance after all.
Many rules were still more conscientious.
There were even some delivery men who had feelings for this platform.
After all, delivery on this platform was far more profitable than in factories or construction sites.

Who would go against money?

Under such circumstances, winning the battle of public opinion was not as simple as Lu Mingliang wanted to do at that time.

Home Take-Out also seized this point and counterattacked on public opinion.

It would be very difficult without some professional theoretical support.

Yu Pingan might be an ordinary delivery man but he still had the mentality of a person-in-charge.
He hoped that Fish-Catching Take-Out would win from the bottom of his heart.

Yu Pingan said to Teacher Wang, “Teacher Wang, once this thesis is out, you must publish a special column on the Useful App.
At the same time, go to Bunny Tail Live-Stream to give us a good lecture!”

Teacher Wang nodded.
“Of course.”
