Introduction The development of the Internet has brought many conveniences to people's lives. Even without leaving home, various daily consumption needs can be met through online platforms.

It was with the rapid rise of shopping platforms such as Taobao and JD.com that people’s life and consumption patterns changed dramatically.

Taobao and JD.com are relatively early e-commerce service platforms, and they are also the largest in China today.

After these platforms, some service platforms focusing on food delivery have emerged, and Ele.me is one of them.

As people's pace of life continues to accelerate, takeout has become an important way for people to meet their three meals a day. When many people don't want to cook, they can eat delicious meals through takeout platforms without waiting too long. This

This convenience also supports the rapid development of many food delivery platforms.

As the leader in the food delivery platform, Ele.me has more than 10 years of development experience. However, after more than 10 years of development, the founder sold the Ele.me platform to Jack Ma for 66.5 billion.

What is the current situation of the delivery boy who betrayed this platform?

▲The founder of Ele.me - Zhang Xuhao, a college student, jointly founded the food delivery platform Ele.me. It was established in April 2009. The main founder of the platform is Zhang Xuhao, who first proposed the creation of a food delivery platform.

Because he was still a college student at the time, studying at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, and after he had the idea of ??creating a food delivery platform, he contacted several other classmates.

After Zhang Xuhao told several of his better classmates that he wanted to create a food delivery platform, those who finally supported him were Kang Jia, Wang Yuan, Ye Feng, and Cao Wenxue.

They all believed that creating a takeout service in the catering industry was very promising. In addition, they were graduating at the time, which happened to be a good opportunity to start a business.

Finally, their store began to invest in the development of an online ordering system.

When a platform is established, it must be named. After discussions between several people, they finally decided to name their food delivery platform Hungry?

Of course, when creating this kind of platform, you must have enough funds. Several people scraped together to get the startup capital of the platform. As the leader of the team, Zhang Xuhao even recommended him at the beginning in order to make the platform recommend him smoothly.

I only sleep four or five hours a day.

▲The delivery boy from Ele.me started with the delivery service of a restaurant. After just establishing the platform, several people contracted the delivery service of a restaurant.

It is precisely from the takeout service of such a restaurant that they have grown bigger and bigger in the process of platform development. After accumulating a certain degree of popularity and credibility, their business has also grown bigger and bigger.

When the business was booming, as the founder, Zhang Xuhao often turned into a delivery boy and delivered meals to customers.

It can be said that Zhang Xuhao and others started as a delivery boy, but their platform has developed very rapidly.

▲Zhang Xuhao’s reputation and popularity have increased significantly with the Ele.me platform, and he even became the most watched and valuable start-up company in my country for a time.

In 2015, in just a few years, this platform accumulated 350 million in financing. In the next two years, their platform received 4 financings.

Investing in them are companies such as Dianping and JD.com.

By August 2015, the Ele.me platform had received RMB 650 million in financing. Among domestic and even international food delivery platforms, there are not many single financings that have reached such a high record, and Ele.me has set a record for this amount.

record.

▲Ele.me chose to sell the platform during its heyday in delivery. As the Ele.me platform continues to develop, their business is also constantly expanding. On this platform, people can consume a wider and wider range, not only in supermarkets, but also in supermarkets.

, as well as all kinds of food and medicine.

Even if Meituan later developed rapidly, it did not affect Ele.me’s position in the entire industry. The two platforms are equally competitive.

However, just when Ele.me was at its peak, Zhang Xuhao did not continue to operate the platform, but instead sold it to Alibaba for 66.5 billion.

▲After selling a corner of Alibaba’s Ele.me home, does Zhang Xuhao make any other big moves?

What industries did he start working in later?

In fact, after selling the Ele.me platform, Zhang Xuhao did not get involved in other fields. Instead, he was invited by Alibaba and he still serves as the chairman of the platform.

And as of October 28, 2019, he ranked among the "2019 Hurun Post-80s Self-Made Rich List" with a personal wealth of 5.5 billion, and ranked 19th in the list.

▲Zhang Xuhao concluded that the reason why many people do nothing in their lives is that a large part of the reason is that they are just dreaming without practical actions. Many people's failures are also caused by blindly dreaming and failing to take action.

The reason why Zhang Xuhao is successful is that he dares to think and do, and dares to make choices even when his career is at its peak. Therefore, he can reach a realm of life that others cannot reach.
