Airbnb in Chinese variant b2c,why

Silicon Valley's new favorite Airbnb is equivalent to the rental area of ebay. You have a temporary spare bedroom for the people who come to visit your city. The price is cheaper than the hotel. Besides, you may have a friendship.

The pattern begins to replicate to other areas, such as cars. In short, idle items can be rented out to obtain income. Quite green.

But like many Silicon Valley innovations based on national conditions, Airbnb in China is not easy to replicate. Including the market and other sites have similar products, but peak brother understand the effect is not ideal. The main factor is national conditions.

Wen Tianli said it was a "very American" application. The United States populated, the general people have houses, the law is complete. But none of this is in China. On the contrary, the average Chinese are crammed into small houses. And those families with free houses would be relieved to hire a stranger from afar? NO.

In fact, if the house in a good lot and community, the average person will be assured to live. But in a country where the elderly fall into a state where no one dares to assist, there is a lack of open mind, interpersonal environment and legal protection after a dispute arises.

Serious people who really want to rent a house will care about cost and experience. such as home and other http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/39331.html "> budget hotels only need 180. But how many of China's ordinary families are no less than this experience?

A VC partner said, "The operation of this line is too high, not pure Internet class case, not optimistic."

But the interesting thing is that China did not have ebay, but the birth of Taobao. The difference is that ebay's sellers are individuals, pure C. Taobao sellers are small shopkeepers, the essence of small B. In China, the field of renting is also the birth of a similar taobao species, such as passers-by network. The room is no longer scattered around the general family, but a fixed number of tourism properties or long-term idle property owners, that is, small B.

The difference is that Taobao is a small B directly facing buyers. But the home class site is the face of its own buyers. Jingwei Chuang Juhaibo This state described as "intermediary first to the landlord signed a long lease, and then converted to the intermediary to the room short rent." That is, the intermediary web site in a more professional form at the same time face the landlord and tenant, to the homeowner to guarantee the proceeds, to the tenant guarantee quality, to avoid both sides of the concern.

But open trading for idle resources is a trend. Juhaibo that this is the most effective solution in many areas. Credit problems are not a barrier to commercialization. The bottleneck is whether there is a strong team can as water bypass, in different areas of differentiation to create their own Taobao.
