On October 30th, when DeTao CFO Xu Tao was invited to participate in the speech of the 5th Auto Rental Development Forum held in Beijing yesterday, he expounded the development history and related business situations of Didi in the past two years. He pointed out that the use of the droplets should be used. Piloting the use of mobile Internet technology, it has become a world-class enterprise in the field of transportation in China.
Xu Tao believes that in fact, the rapid development of DDT is also a microcosm of the development and transformation of China's traffic mode of travel. The rapid penetration of the Internet in the traditional industry has created a rapid growth of dizzying vehicles.
Two years ago, in the "clothes, food, housing and transportation" of the common people, "clothing" had Taobao and Vanke, "food" had a group of the United States, public comments, "living" had Ctrip.com, where.com and other industry leaders, and some appeared. Industry leader. However, there are no similar changes and innovations in the line.
The rapid advancement of China’s urbanization process, coupled with its large population base, tight transportation capacity and relatively lagging road network construction, have resulted in a low overall efficiency of the urban transport system. As a result, people have travelled with various annoyances and pains. . The reason for this is actually that the allocation of transportation resources is not the most scientific method. In Beijing, for example, people travel mainly on public transportation, subways, taxis or private cars, but they are still far from meeting their travel needs.
He said frankly that when Dreaker founder Cheng Wei and Wu Rui, Li Xiang, and other ideal-minded like-minded people started their business two years ago, they had an idea that "Mobile Internet makes travel better." Talking about the concept of "beautiful," Xu Tao said very seriously that people can easily get on buses and subways, whether it's rain or snow, or during the rush hour, and they can easily get to the car.
First of all, from the product design, he took the driver's side as an example to introduce the design ideas that are mainly based on experience. Drops have a rider function designed specifically for the driver. Like in Beijing, there are many taxi drivers who live in the suburbs. Many of the taxi drivers used to go home everyday. With the rider function, the drops will automatically push the driver to the same home route as before leaving work, leaving passengers with orders from the nearest passenger.
“This will not only reduce the idling rate, reduce fuel consumption, save money, but also allow them to leave work as early as possible, go back to dinner with their families, spend time with family, and spend more time with their families,†said Xu Tao.
The recent drastic changes in the new version of the robbed-one model of the driver's terminal is also an innovation in product design. The robbed single model of the nearest principle not only ensures the safety of the driver in the process of driving and the fairness of the robberies, but also allows passengers to call on the bus as soon as possible to meet passengers' demand for taxis. Xu Tao revealed that passengers are now able to receive orders by driping cars for no more than 26 seconds and an average of 15 seconds. He admits that this is the charm of the mobile Internet, the company's victory is also a concept.
Speaking of the drop-on-car service, Xu Tao said, as its name suggests, DDT is a high-end commercial car rental developed on the mobile travel information platform that can meet people’s different needs. Dedicated to developing the special car market, the fundamental reason is demand. For example, he pointed out that, for example, enterprises receive certain VIP customers, and they hope that some high-end cars, children at home, and seats that require safety seats will require customized and differentiated special vehicles.
Xu Tao to Uber as an example, pointed out that Uber now creates 20,000 jobs for the society every month. It creates US$2.8 billion worth of economic value for the United States each year. In just four years, Uber will cover 43% of the population in the United States. Up to 20 billion U.S. dollars. This fully shows that in the domestic market, the on-line service of DDT is not accidental. This is a social development demand and an inevitable trend.
Turning to the development of DDT, Xu Tao pointed out that the purpose of the education market was achieved through subsidy wars, and a large number of user groups were accumulated to cultivate user habits. Some time ago, when leaders of the Party and Group of the Ministry of Transport, the Director of the Department of Transportation, Xiaoming Liu, and Deputy Director Li Zhiqiang came to make in-depth investigations and studies, they fully affirmed the results of the two years of development.
The data shows that as of today, the daily orders for taxis on the Drip platform have reached 5.5 million, which is 26 times that of uber global orders; the number of registered drivers in China is 1 million, and the number of passengers exceeded 100 million, of which the proportion of female passengers reached 60%; Covering more than 300 cities across the country, millions of passengers pay for fares every day via “Didian + WeChatâ€.
The Didi car, which focuses on the mid- to high-end business market, started beta testing in Beijing in August and has now officially launched in nine cities including the North, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shenzhen, Shenzhen, Shenzhen, Shenzhen and Shenzhen. The daily order quantity exceeds 30,000 yuan, and the number of rental car cooperative enterprises exceeds 100. There will be more than 100,000 person-times for a car.
In terms of company talent and technology development, Xu Tao pointed out that Didi has grown from a team of less than 30 people two years ago to a team of more than 1,000 people. The number of employees has continued to increase, and the company has continued to expand. The proportion of software research and development employees accounted for 50-70%, including top-level big data algorithm experts and software engineers who have won world awards.
Xu Tao revealed that about three weeks ago, when the management of Didi and the president of the Harvard University School of Statistics exchanged ideas, Harvard University also invited Didi to go to Harvard next year to recruit students and introduce students majoring in mathematics and algorithms. Can be seen in the big data budget, Didi is already in a leading position. For example, the amount of information that a drop receives and sends every day is calculated at 100,000 times per second and calculated at one billion times per day.
Xu Tao pointed out that all of this effort is, in the final analysis, to achieve a dream that is "mobile Internet to make travel better." The needs of all drivers and passengers are on this platform. Based on the information collected, we reasonably allocate these orders. What I want to do is a travel information service platform to better link people and transportation services. It is a taxi, a car now. In the future, there will be various travel services such as carpooling and driving.
“In fact, this beautiful is a very common thing. However, we hope that through the efforts of all the people, this ordinary good will become unusual. DDT hopes to use mobile Internet technology to open up the traditional closed transportation system and change The people's travel mode has become an integrated city travel information service platform," Xu Tao said finally.
