🔥 Uber Under Pressure to Beef Up Food Delivery
新冠疫情之下,優步食品外送業務的壓力倍增
- beef up 增強,加強
✍️ beef 除了牛肉之外,也有「力量」之意
🧐 After a failed bid for Grubhub Inc., GRUB 4.42% the ride-hailing giant is trying to buy much smaller food-delivery company Postmates Inc. as it seeks surer footing in the era of Covid-19.
競購 Grubhub Inc. (GRUB)失敗後,這家網約車服務巨頭正試圖收購規模較小的外賣公司Postmates Inc.,以期在新冠疫情下站穩腳步。
- bid 投標,競標
- ride-hailing 叫車/網約車
- giant 巨頭、巨擘、大公司
🏢 The San Francisco-based company needs to get stronger in the competitive world of food delivery as the pandemic has crushed its rides business and surging infections have subsumed early hopes for an economic recovery and people returning to offices.
由於疫情已嚴重衝擊其網約車業務,感染病例激增也讓經濟復甦和人們重返辦公室更遙遙無期,這家總部位於舊金山的公司需在競爭激烈的外賣領域中更加茁壯。
- San Francisco-based (地名-based)總部設在…的
- surging 急遽上升的
- subsumed 將…歸入,把…納入
🥡 The food-delivery industry was ripe for consolidation even before the pandemic hit, as the biggest companies turned their sights toward making profits on the heels of fast and expensive growth and amid increasingly overlapping markets. As consumers stayed home to stop the spread of the virus, food-delivery became a lifeline for restaurants battered by lockdowns and a relative area of activity in a deteriorating economy.
早在疫情出現前,外賣行業的整合時機便已成熟,在快速且高成本的增長及市場日益重疊的情況下,最大的幾家公司將目光轉向了盈利。由於消費者待在家中防疫,美食外送業務成為受到封鎖的餐飲業的一條救生索,同時也是不斷惡化的經濟中相對活躍的一個領域。
- be ripe for… 時機成熟的;適宜的
- consolidate 聯合,統一;合併/ 鞏固,加強,強化
- deteriorating 惡化的、墮落的
未完待續...
疫情之下,食品外送仍遭受打擊
不如大家想像的「賺爆」
不過究竟 Uber 又祭出什麼對策來應對呢?

Yandex is Russia's biggest tech company
Founded in 1997 or 23 years ago by a businessman named Arkady Volozh
Yandex stands for Yet Another Indexer
Because the first business of the company is to make a search website.
In the global Search Engine market, Google is undoubtedly leading up to 92 % while Yandex has 5 % user with a 0.5 % share.
But within the Russian country
Yandex can rule the market share at 58 % to be regarded as Russian Google.
However, this is only part of the Yandex Kingdom because of 70 different types of internet-related businesses.
Let's see some interesting examples.
Yandex. Direct Online Advertising Business is like Google Ads. 61 % Russian market share.
Yandex. Market platform to buy products online like Amazon. Currently, there are 19 million users per month.
Yandex. Taxi platform called Uber, but embraced 60 % of domestic users until the end of 2018, Uber competitors have to sell Russian affairs for 36.6 % of Yandex's shareholders. Taxi instead.
Yandex. Eats food delivery service and Yandex Lavka, the new generation's popular grocery delivery service.
Resulting in quarter 1 2020 Transport business group grew 49 % compared to the same period last year.
Yandex. Music platform listening online like Spotify and Yandex. Video platform. Video watching online. Like YouTube. Latest. Total members of 4.3 million accounts.
There are also many other businesses like
Yandex. Flight Platform to book airfare
Yandex. Messenger Chat Apps
Yandex. Disk storage services on cloud
Yandex. Money Payment System and Online Banking
Alisa Smart Assistant like Amazon Alexa
Even during the COVID-19 incident Russia was one of the severe outbreak centers, the company developed a free virus detection kit to the public.
By the proportion of the company's income every 100 baht.
64 baht from advertisement fee
24 baht from car and delivery business.
12 baht from other businesses such as subscription fee, entertainment media.
If you ask what is the reason Yandex has succeeded in occupying online space?
The answer should be not hesitating to grab opportunities in hand.
The company's strategy is to analyze which businesses have potential and foreigners are starting to market. But it doesn't meet local people. Yandex will compete with simple service models and consistent with consumer behavior.
Because the company has a great advantage that it can design platforms to support the usage of Russian language properly and more accurately.
Improving Yandex's performance continuously following the development of internet technology.
But it's undeniable that the weakness of rubble currency from Russia's case of economic sanctions since mid 2014's after Ukraine Crimea land annexation to be part of itself. Assembled with the Expanding businesses, affecting fairly corporate profits.
Year 2013 (1 rubles equals 1.01 baht)
Income 39,900 million baht
Profit of 13,600 million baht.
Year 2017 (1 rubles equals 0.55 baht)
Income 52,000 million baht
Profit of 4,800 million baht.
Year 2018 (1 rubles equals 0.47 baht)
Income 60,000 million baht
Profit of 20,800 million baht.
This year, there is extra profit from separating Yandex business. Market venture out with another company
Year 2019 (1 rubles equals 0.49 baht)
Income 86,000 million baht
Profit of 5,500 million baht.
Yandex is listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange in the USA. Now it's worth 420,000 million baht.
And it is evaluated that Mr Arkady Volozh, who is founder and CEO has private property up to 42,000 million baht.
However, sometimes business-related to a lot of data is often troubled because government concerns about the security of important data that could slip into the hands of dissent countries.
Yandex was recently ordered to restructure the company without a single shareholder over 10 % and limit total expat shareholders to 50 %
Yandex story makes us know
In many countries, strong foreign brands often scare local business owners and dare to do anything.
But really, what those companies can fight with us is understanding the unique characteristics of domestic consumers.
So if you keep opening the door to opportunities.
At the end we may succeed.
Like the case of Yandex that has become everything in Russian life..

world biggest food company 在 陳紫綸|Shaofo Facebook 的最讚貼文
這次的武漢肺炎,不斷地讓我想到在2017年在意大利參與EDE(生態社群設計教育課程)
「真正的生態村」__我指的不是商業自然觀光園區,而是一群人為了與環境與同伴更永續的生活所建構出來的生活模式。
當中不斷提及自給自足(self-sustainability)的重要性,當時還不能理解,為什麼我們需要自給自足?這個世界這麼方便,大家分工不是很好嗎?
現在的肺炎狀況,讓我不禁反思,在即將面離極端環境時代的我們(或者說正在面臨)自給自足顯然成為了必要的生存模式。
在Helena Norberg-Hodge這位語言學與人類學研究者的電影《快樂經濟》當中,她說道,當她第一次踏入拉達克時,所有的人都在笑,他們圍在一起織布、一起種植、在過程中歌唱。所有他們生活所需要的事物他們都能夠靠自己的雙手變出來。他們是她見過最富足與快樂的人。
多年後拉達克開放了,人們知道了手機、Nike,同一位她曾遇過的年輕人坐在路邊騎討「可憐可憐我吧,我是如此的貧窮。」
在上到世界經濟的部分,我印象深刻當時在歐洲,西班牙賣的是義大利的番茄、義大利卻賣西班牙的橘子。
因為這樣才可能創造「經濟」GDP才可能提升,才可能「富有」。
食物最營養與最美味的方式當然是離產地越近越好, 你想吃一顆來自你家後院的番茄,還是橫跨大西洋、印度洋高雄港口、用貨車送到你家附近的商店包在塑膠包裝裡的那顆。但我們卻對這一切如此的習以為常。
我們需要國際的交流,我們需要,但我們真正需要的交流是什麼?
我不知道台灣能撐多久,我也不知道當我們面臨最大的疫情時我們會創造出什麼樣的生活。但我知道現在最珍貴的會是土地。接下來的時代最重要的會是農夫、還有會自己蓋房子的、可以穿梭自然與自然和平共處的人,當然還有網路,透過這個媒介去傳遞真理。
前幾天看到了我義大利前劇團的公開信
全員隔離在家,除非要去藥局與超市
一切活動通通停止。
我在思考,那人們的錢從哪來?
沒有工作那怎麼生活?
那些本來工作給錢的一方的錢又去了哪?
當經濟活動停止,錢去了哪?從哪裡來?
誰能付錢邀劇團演出
邀請單位的錢又從哪來?
政府補助?企業贊助?
政府與企業的錢從哪來?
人民?
人民又從哪?
服務業?教育?餐飲?工廠?
最後發現一切的錢從土地來
從菜、樹、礦石、沙子、水、風、泥土
土地,一直都在等著,等著我們發現繞了一圈後
我們需要的還是土地。
我們究竟要旅行多久,才能發現我們在找的一直都在這裡?
今年十月,我預計與我的夥伴 Hema Wu在優人開設全台灣第一次的EDE,內容包含生態、世界觀、社群、經濟等不同面向。為期三週,全面討論人類生存的可能。
This Covid-19 constantly reminds me of participating in EDE (Ecological Village Design Education )in Italy in 2017
“A True Eco-village" I am not referring to a commercial nature tourism park, but a living model constructed by a group of people for a more sustainable life with the environment and companions.
It kept mentioning the importance of self-sustainability, and I was not understood the importance at the time, why do we need self-sufficiency? The world is so convenient.
The current situation of pneumonia makes me can't help thinking about it. In the time of extreme environment, self-sufficiency have obviously become the necessary survival mode.
In the film Happy Economy by Helena Norberg-Hodge, a linguistic and anthropological researcher, she said that when she first stepped into Ladakh, everyone was laughing and they were weaving together , Planting together, singing together. They can make everything they need in their own hands. They are the richest and happiest people she has ever seen.
After many years Ladakh opened, people knew mobile phones, Nike, and a young man she had met sat on the side of the road and asked, "Poor me, I'm so poor."
During the world economy course, I was very impressed that, Spain was selling Italian tomatoes, while Italy was selling Spanish oranges.
Because in this way, it is possible to create an "economic" GDP that can rise and become "rich."
The most nutritious and delicious way of food is of course the closer to the place of production, Do you want to eat a tomato from your backyard or across the Atlantic Ocean, the Kaohsiung port of the Indian Ocean, and truck to a store near your home. Such a habit.
Just like the import and export of Taiwan masks.
We need international communication, we need, but what is the communication we really need?
I don't know how long Taiwan can last, and I don't know what kind of life we will create when we face the biggest epidemic. But I know that the most precious thing now is land. The most important thing in the next era will be farmers, people who can build their own houses, who can shuttle nature and nature to live in peace, and of course, the Internet, to convey truth through this medium.
A few days ago I saw the open letter from my former theatre company in Italy
Isolate everyone at home, except at pharmacy and supermarket
All activities ceased.
I'm thinking, where do people's money come from?
How do you live without a job?
Where are the money of those who work and give money?
When economic activity stops, where does the money go? Where did it come from?
Who can pay to invite a troupe to perform
Where does the money for the invitation unit come from?
government subsidy? Corporate sponsorship?
Where does the government and business money come from?
people?
Where do the people come from?
Services? education? food? factory?
Finally found all the money came from the land
From vegetables, trees, ore, sand, water, wind, dirt
The land has been waiting, waiting for us to find a circle
What we need is still land.
How long do we have to travel to find that we have been looking here all along?
In October of this year, I expected to open the first EDE in Taiwan with my friend Hema Wu in U-theatre, covering different aspects of ecology, worldview, community, and economy. A three-week discussion of the possibilities of human survival.

The Tsukiji Market (築地市場 Tsukiji shijō), supervised by the Tokyo Metropolitan Central Wholesale Market (東京都中央卸売市場 Tōkyō-to Chūō Oroshiuri Shijō) of the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Industrial and Labor Affairs, is the biggest wholesale fish and seafood market in the world and also one of the largest wholesale food markets of any kind.
The market is located in Tsukiji in central Tokyo, between the Sumida River and the upmarket Ginza shopping district. While the inner wholesale market has restricted access to visitors, the outer retail market, restaurants and associated restaurant supply stores remain a major tourist attraction for both domestic and overseas visitors.
The market handles more than 400 different types of seafood from cheap seaweed to the most expensive caviar, and from tiny sardines to 300 kg tuna and controversial whale species. Overall, more than 700,000 metric tons of seafood are handled every year at the three seafood markets in Tokyo, with a total value in excess of 600 billion yen (approximately 5.9 billion US dollars on November 24, 2013). The number of registered employees as of 25 January 2010 varies from 60,000 to 65,000, including wholesalers, accountants, auctioneers, company officials, and distributors.
The market opens most mornings (except Sundays, holidays and some Wednesdays) at 3:00 a.m. with the arrival of the products by ship, truck and plane from all over the world. Particularly impressive is the unloading of tons of frozen tuna. The auction houses (wholesalers known in Japanese as oroshi gyōsha) then estimate the value and prepare the incoming products for the auctions. The buyers (licensed to participate in the auctions) also inspect the fish to estimate which fish they would like to bid for and at which price.
The auctions start around 5:20 a.m. Bidding can only be done by licensed participants. These bidders include intermediate wholesalers (nakaoroshi gyōsha) who operate stalls in the marketplace and other licensed buyers who are agents for restaurants, food processing companies, and large retailers.
The auctions usually end around 10:00 a.m. Afterward, the purchased fish is either loaded onto trucks to be shipped to the next destination or on small carts and moved to the many shops inside the market. There the shop owners cut and prepare the products for retail. In case of large fish, for example tuna and swordfish, cutting and preparation is elaborate. Frozen tuna and swordfish are often cut with large band saws, and fresh tuna is carved with extremely long knives.
The Tsukiji fish market occupies valuable real estate close to the center of the city. Former Tokyo Governor Shintaro Ishihara repeatedly called for moving the market to Toyosu, Koto. The long-anticipated move to the new market will take place in November 2016, in preparation for the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics.

This Vietnam Hotel Video was sponsored by a Canadian Travel Company and NOT by the hotel themselves. (This room is listed at 600 dollars a night on Expedia)
------------------------------------
There is no shortage of luxury 5 Star hotels in modern Vietnam today. But, there aren't many in Mui Ne. In fact, Anantara Resort is the only 5 Star Hotel in Mui Ne located along the main tourist strip. This was simply the biggest room I've ever been in. This villa suite was incredible with two stories. I wished that was really my house. The breakfast was decent as well. There's also a private beach and pool right outside. I recommend this place if you come to Mui Ne and want to stay relatively central to the hustle and bustle of the tourist area.
