Xu Zhiming said: "I send the message also want more people to talk about, and the main reason for the sale is because the money lost." ”

Fast schoolbag on June 8, 2010 on the line, the introduction of a new "one-hour arrival" service, and launched the innovative "time to send", "regular delivery" distribution services. The two logistics models were later imitated by a number of electronic business platform, Jingdong, Amazon, when and other enterprises have launched the speed Tatsu, timing tatsu business.

The new model of fast Schoolbag is learned from McDonald's, that is, the model of the full street McDonald's delivery personnel to introduce the book market.

Such innovation allows Han SHU package business to rapidly expand to Shanghai, Xian, Chengdu, Changsha, Hangzhou, Shenzhen and other cities, merchandise category in addition to books, but also expanded to more than 500 kinds of goods.

On the line, because the concept of an hour, fast schoolbag attracts a lot of media attention and coverage. But in terms of financing, the Han Shu package has been an untold success. Before financing in March 2012, Xu Zhiming himself invested 1 million yuan, students invested 2 million Yuan Angel, from July 2011 after the money spent, Xu Zhiming began to borrow money to pay wages, and even loans, adhere to the micro-blog investment to account, and this 9 million yuan also failed to help fast schoolbag "ventilator" lasted longer.

June 2014, the fast Schoolbag completed the last round of financing, from Changzhou City, the elite investment company of 8 million yuan investment. 3 months later, Xu Zhiming announced the "one Hour distribution" service stopped, then Han Shu Package Business transformation for the use of conventional distribution mode of the selection of Life shop, and on the line of imported food and import daily necessities of the limited sales site-love to rob goods.

At this point, a total of 20 million has spent 14 million, and those who are prone to billions of dollars in financing of the peers compared to the fast-schoolbag funds appear shabby. Xu Zhiming on Weibo admits: "The fast bag from the production of goods, self-built warehousing, self-built logistics, one hour arrival mode, may be a wrong direction." One hour arrival but there is demand, such as rainy days umbrellas, before dinner maotai and other urgent items, but the focus of these needs, supporting the rapid growth of the entire website, it is really difficult. We are trying to dig out more products with this trait, but we haven't found enough in four years. ”

Data show that the fast bag 2012 sales of more than 3 million yuan, 2013 sales reached 10 million yuan, Xu Zhiming admitted that the development of fast schoolbags two or three times times "more backward than the development of the electricity quotient, investors want 10 times times, 20 times times as soon as possible development."

After the last cash on the book burned, once the hot topic of "Fast schoolbag" is packing their own sale, this time they can "an hour" arrived?
