Chapter 1706 (2/2)
At least, we can't let any illegal traders profit from pirated panda bear image, because this is the biggest attraction of Chinese tourism overseas at this stage.
……
Recently, there are more and more overseas tourists going to China through Taobao. However, there are only packages from Los Angeles or San Francisco for Taobao, which makes the tourists in Europe, Japan and South Korea feel particularly depressed. They keep asking Taobao where to go, hoping that Taobao can open more tourism routes, especially opening domestic tourism to China Route.At present, when users choose the same route, same itinerary, same air tickets, hotels and tourism services, and use Taobao's travel package, it will be at least 40% cheaper than full free travel, and it will be more worry-free and safer.
Therefore, most of the users who want to visit China in the near future are looking forward to Taobao's opening more international departure routes.
Li Mu's own overseas relations are not many. There are no other important political relations in the United States except for Hollywood and Schwarzenegger. However, Britain has a deep relationship. He not only keeps close contact with royal family members, but also gets the title of the queen. It can be seen that the queen has the idea of giving William to her own belt. Therefore, he is the first one who wants to expand The new route is Britain.
Although the UK is not the geographical center of Europe, London Heathrow airport is the airport with the largest throughput in Europe. Therefore, the route from London to China was first opened up, which not only opened up opportunities for British people to enjoy the cost-effective tourist products in China through Taobao, but also opened up a relatively cost-effective route choice for the whole Europe.
If Russia, which is excluded by Europe, is removed from Europe, the area is not very large and the traffic is very developed. There are four major transport hubs in Europe, one is London, the other is Paris in France, Frankfurt in Germany and Amsterdam in the Netherlands.
From the last three transport hubs to London, it's almost an hour, and the farthest Frankfurt is only an hour and a half.
In this way, the operability of London as the export of Western Europe to China is much higher.
Moreover, if you choose Eurostar from France or Belgium to go to London, the whole journey will be a little more than two hours. For a transnational and intercontinental tourism, an extra one or two hours' journey is basically irrelevant, but the money can be saved a lot, which is the most important thing.
In fact, choosing Germany as the export of the whole Europe will be more reasonable and scientific as a whole, but the key point is that Li Mu doesn't know anyone or have any local relations in Germany, so it's relatively troublesome to operate.
What's more, it's London, and it's also a way of giving William a favor.
There are a large number of tourists in Europe who want to visit China, and there are a lot of tourists in Britain. They are eager to have an export in Europe. If William invited Makino technology to open a travel route from London to several major cities in China, their good feelings for William will greatly increase for these tourists.
For Li Mu, the best way to choose Britain is that the Windsor family can help him communicate with the local tourism resources companies, such as the local British airlines, tourism companies, hotel groups, etc.
And because there are so many European countries, Li Mu asked the Windsor family to help him solve the problem of going to London from European countries.
In Li Mu's opinion, if he sets the export of Europe in London, he will naturally attract a large number of European tourists to London and then fly directly to China. Therefore, he hopes that European airlines can give certain discounts to the users who book a free trip to China in London.
The way to offer this kind of discount is: Airlines open the online booking channel to Taobao. When booking online directly, they will give a preferential policy of at least 20% lower than the market price.
However, Li Mu also promised that the airlines would not sell their tickets in large quantities at low prices, but would bundle the discount tickets with the packages for London travel.
For example, if a Berlin tourist buys a package package from London to a city in China on Taobao, he can order a 20% discount ticket between Berlin and London.
At the same time, Li Mu also hopes that the Windsor family will help him communicate with the operators of London Heathrow airport. Any tourists who purchase the Taobao package, transfer to London and go to China can enjoy the treatment of VIP security channel and waiting room at London Heathrow airport.
At present, there are ticket companies selling VIP security channel and waiting room services of Heathrow airport for passengers in economy class. The price of a single passenger in VIP security channel is about 5 pounds, and the price of a single passenger in VIP waiting room is about 25 pounds.
But in fact, the service cost is about 3 pounds for the security channel and 5-8 pounds for the VIP terminal.
Muye technology is willing to pay 15 pounds to the airport for its tourists. Of course, all the money is from the sheep. Li Mu has to increase the cost of 15-20 pounds in the package.
For tourists from developed countries, the overall purpose of travel service is not to pursue the lower the total price, the better, but to pursue the higher the cost performance.
For example, for tourists from developing countries, paying an extra £ 15 to enjoy the fast track and VIP waiting room, they don't feel preferential, but they feel expensive and unnecessary.
However, when calculating the cost performance ratio, most tourists in developed countries will change their thinking. They will feel that they can get these two extra upgrade services with only a little extra cost. This is a very cost-effective thing in itself, and it will become a bonus for the whole package meal.
All the requirements of the Windsor family for Li Mu are collected according to the bill, and then Prince Charles personally coordinates the network relationship, and strives to win the preferential terms he wants for Li Mu. For the Windsor family, they hope that the London line will be opened as soon as possible than Li Mu!
