Takeaway brother upgrade: from "bronze" to "king" to send orders against the clock

  Lane 41, Sanyuan Road, Putuo District, Shanghai, is a commercial and residential building where the blue-and-white "Ele.me" logo hangs. He Shengsheng, 28, is the webmaster of the food delivery platform Ele.me in Shanghai.

  "In December 2014, I came to Shanghai to work hard and saw that Ele.me was recruiting a large number of riders, and the salary was not bad, so I came here." He Shengsheng told First Financial Reporter that in May 2015, due to his outstanding work performance, he was promoted to become a stationmaster, mainly responsible for helping riders solve problems encountered in daily work and life.

  Ele.me Hummingbird Delivery released the "2018 Takeaway Riders Group Insight Report" shows that there are more than 3 million registered riders in Hummingbird Delivery, of which 77% of Hummingbird riders are from rural areas, the average age is about 29 years old, and the proportion of post-95s has exceeded 20%. Riders deliver 48 orders per day on average, and travel nearly 150 kilometers.

  With the accelerated pace of life, people are increasingly concerned about the value of time, and instant delivery has come into being. Nowadays, instant logistics distribution platforms have entered the field of intra-city, small-scale, and takeaway, and gradually expanded to the field of fresh food, supermarket delivery, and even a wider range of express terminal areas.

  As a young man who came to Shanghai from Lu’an, Anhui Province to work hard, making money is He Shengsheng’s top priority.

  "Joined Ele.me as a rider on December 22, 2014. At that time, the order volume was not very large. The overtime salary was more than 8,000 yuan, and the unit helped pay five insurances and one housing fund." He Shengsheng told reporters that there are now 65 riders (full-time + part-time) under his own management. Every month, the company will settle the salary according to its own control of the site and performance. Generally, if you do a good job, the monthly salary is more than 10,000 yuan; if you do a little worse, 6,000 to 8,000 yuan.

  The reporter learned that almost all the instant delivery fields such as Ele.me, Meituan, and Dada use the agent model. Take Ele.me as an example. Ele.me has dozens of agents in Shanghai, each agent has multiple sites, and the maintenance of the site is jointly managed by the channel manager dispatched by Ele.me and the area manager dispatched by the agent. And He Shengsheng’s site belongs to Jiangxi Hummingbird Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd.

  When He Shengsheng first took over the position of stationmaster, most of his time was occupied by manual orders, such as the same rider arranging several orders in the same direction for him. "At that time, it was still manual, and there was no intelligent order like now."

  The intelligent dispatching system He Shengsheng mentioned is the "Ark" of Ele.me intelligent dispatching system, which is the core link in the field of instant delivery of takeout. The system replaces most of the work of webmasters, reduces the degree of human intervention, and realizes automated and intelligent dispatching.

  The first financial reporter saw in the computer background of the Ele.me site that the Ark system can display the intelligent scheduling order link: user order, merchant order, intelligent scheduling (rider order/robot order), delivery to users, etc. Through big data and machine learning, user orders are matched with the optimal path under the optimal decision to ensure delivery efficiency.

  In addition, the system can also display the location of the rider in real time, as well as the number of orders in his hand and the number of orders to be completed. "The location is mainly based on the rider’s exclusive app loaded in the rider’s mobile phone. Generally, the rider who completes the order delivery task will return to the business district where he is located, which is convenient for the system to send orders. The longest straight line distance from the food pickup point to the customer is 3.5 kilometers." The business district He Shengsheng is in charge of is the Centennial Central Shopping Plaza and 118 Square in Putuo District. How far is 3.5 kilometers? If you use a 1 yuan coin (25mm diameter) to spread in a straight line, you need 140,000 pieces.

  In the current situation of intelligent ordering, He Shengsheng no longer dispatches orders manually, but also needs to manage the riders, such as the problems encountered by the riders need to be dealt with in a timely manner; in terms of orders, there are merchants who need to be solved, and riders who need to come to him to solve. In addition, it depends on whether the distribution of system orders is reasonable.

He Shengsheng is checking the working status of the rider.

  "The factors to judge whether an order is reasonable are based on a rider’s ability to carry orders in the past period of time, the timeliness of orders, the timeliness of riders’ delivery, etc. Only in this way can we determine the amount of riders’ orders and the shortest time he can deliver orders to customers." He Shengsheng revealed that under normal circumstances, riders with strong ability have no problem going out to receive 12 to 15 orders at a time. If they encounter peak delivery periods, such as going to the same office building for food delivery, they can also reach 18 orders at a time.

  The Ark system will combine nearby orders from the same street and the same building, and deliver them to one rider in a unified manner, which is called "chasing orders" in the industry. He Shengsheng said: "Although it doesn’t matter if the pickup point is different, as long as the customer is in the same building, the delivery efficiency is quite high. This is why so many orders are sent to capable riders, because he knows which restaurant is fast and which is slow, and he will go to the restaurant with the fast meal first."

  From "bronze" to "king"

  This is an industry where every second counts, and riders need to consider two factors: the speed of the restaurant’s delivery, and whether the customer is in the same location. They need a path plan.

  For a rider who has been in the job for a long time and has strong ability, after he receives the order, he has a plan, such as which restaurant to drop by, where to pick up the meal, the speed of the restaurant’s delivery, etc., and then deliver it to the customer. Which orders are delivered first or some customers urge orders to be delivered first, there is a reasonable plan.

  He Shengsheng said: "For a new rider, he doesn’t know where the restaurant is, so the Ele.me platform will tell him where the food pickup point is and where the delivery point is, and he can follow the prompts given to him by the system. In this case, it is more suitable for him to give one or two orders at a time."

  Ark learns the rider’s food delivery data, delineates the rider’s level, and ladders the rider’s target order quantity at all levels, so as to make a ability portrait for each rider, and assigns the waybill to the most suitable rider.

  During the midday and evening peaks of takeout, Ark will prioritize orders to high-level riders during peak periods based on waybill efficiency to improve delivery efficiency. According to data provided by Ele.me, the Ark system can process orders at a peak of more than 80 orders per second. During the peak period of takeout, Ark will emphasize fairness on the basis of considering efficiency. Through big data analytics, the order volume of riders is balanced to ensure that the order volume allocated by riders of the same level and team is roughly the same within a certain time span.

  The Ele.me platform divided Hummingbird’s riders into different levels, and the Honor of Kings game was divided into 6 levels, followed by bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, and king. "The more orders a rider gives, the better, the higher the level will be."

  "Different agents may pay riders different salaries in different cities. The salary of riders on our site consists of three parts: 1. Performance commission, the standard is less than 600 orders, according to 7 yuan/order; more than 600 orders, according to 8 yuan/order. 2. Subsidies are made according to the weight, distance, weather, rider level, etc. of each order. 3. There are praise rewards and rush orders rewards every month." He Shengsheng said that the average monthly income of full-time riders at his site is 7,000-9,000 yuan, and the KPI assessment indicators for riders are similar, basically changing once a month. At present, the main assessment is the cancellation of riders’ delivery and T12 timeout.

  T12 timeout refers to a timeout of 12 minutes. For example, the assessment time of the rider’s order T is 10:30. If the rider arrives after 10:42, it has exceeded the time value of the rider’s order assessment.

  How to determine what time is the expectation of the booking customer? He Shengsheng said that under normal circumstances, it is divided into pre-orders and instant orders, and pre-orders can be booked to a certain time period; for instant orders, the system will determine the time expected by the customer of the order according to the timeliness of the restaurant, order memory and other factors, and then give a time.

  Not only Ele.me, but also its competitors Meituan and Dada have long integrated AI and big data into their business development.

  The reporter learned that there are many entrants in the field of instant delivery at present, mainly divided into three categories: one is established in 2014, flash delivery, Dada, UU errands and other established intra-city courier companies, the other is the instant delivery originating from the takeaway model, such as Ele.me’s Hummingbird delivery, Meituan’s Meituan special delivery team, Dada-JD Daojia’s new Dada, etc.; the third is SF Express, Yuantong, Yunda and other traditional logistics companies, SF Express’s instant delivery business, Yuantong’s timing, Yunda’s cloud delivery. The players on the track are gathered, all intending to get a share of this emerging market.

  For the future, He Shengsheng expressed the hope that he can seize the opportunity and grow with the takeaway platform. (Wang Hai)

Over the past 40 years, the Golden Rooster Award for Chinese films has always been based on the principle of "academic, contending and democratic", rewarding outstanding films and commending outstanding film artists, which has made positive contributions to the prosperity and development of China’s film art creation, promoting film theory and criticism, improving the overall level of China’s film art and technology, and enhancing the international status of China’s films. The Golden Rooster Award is also known as the "Expert Award" for China films because of its professional and academic criteria, authoritative composition of the jury and democratic rigor of the selection process.

What does computer hertz mean?

  Hertz is the unit to calculate the frequency, and it is the refresh frequency of the screen displayed by the computer. It is generally set to 60Hz, but at present, due to the needs of games, there are already 144Hz or even 240Hz display screens; This parameter refers to how many pictures can be displayed on the display screen in one second, and 60Hz refers to displaying 60 pictures in one second. The details are as follows:

  1. It refers to the refresh frequency of computer screen, which needs to be set according to your monitor parameters, generally set to 60Hz. At present, many e-sports game monitors have supported the refresh rate of 144Hz or even 240Hz.

  2. Because the dynamic picture of the display screen is displayed by refreshing, it is not easy for human eyes to recognize because of the high refreshing frequency. The refresh rate refers to how many pictures the display screen can display in one second, and 60Hz refers to displaying 60 pictures in one second. The higher the refresh rate, the smoother the dynamic picture display.

  3. However, the refresh rate needs the support of graphics card and monitor. If you need to choose a refresh rate above 60Hz, you need to ensure that your monitor supports high refresh rate.

Japan’s personal computer market suddenly caught fire, and home office gave birth to a huge market.

  The Japanese personal computer market, which has been silent for many years, has suddenly caught fire recently.

  BCN, a professional research company, conducted a survey on POS data of major home appliance stores and online stores in Japan, and found that the computer market has been booming for a long time. In the first week of April, the Japanese PC market showed a year-on-year growth rate of 109.0%, which climbed to 145.1% in the second week and rose to 164.7% again in the third week, showing an amazing growth trend.

  The reason behind this is that the epidemic continues to spread in Japan. Japanese primary and secondary schools were closed in early March. After the state of emergency was implemented in April, the government repeatedly called on enterprises to expand the proportion of home office workers. In many families, couples and children stayed Stay Home together, working and studying online. To this end, many families urgently acquire computers suitable for office use.

  As early as 1997, the working form of home office appeared in Japan. In order to enable families raising children to take care of both childcare and work, the Japanese government has been committed to improving diversified work systems such as home office. There is a company called CASTER in Japan, and more than 700 employees implement a thorough home office system. The company has no office space, and employees are scattered all over Japan and never meet each other at all.

  However, from a global perspective, the proportion of home office in Japan is not too high. A survey of home office in Japan from March 13th to April 13th showed that only 18% of Japanese office workers worked at home during the epidemic. This is the lowest proportion among the 26 respondents of the British survey company. This shows from another angle that the hardware and software of home office in Japan are not mature and have great room for development.

  This epidemic has made the Japanese home office system work quickly. More and more enterprises begin to work remotely by holding video conferences and other means, and use online business systems instead of business trips. Followed by the rapid growth of telecommuting related software development business, including various attendance management tools, video conferencing tools, business communication tools, task management tools, virtual office tools and so on.

  Not only that, all kinds of household goods manufacturers also took the opportunity to launch online activities and compete for marketing. The most obvious thing is that the number of food delivery brothers shuttled on the street has increased significantly. Many high-end restaurants have changed to lunch after stopping the in-house food business, and they have set up stalls at the door and distributed them to nearby merchants and households. Didi Japan has also provided food delivery service in Osaka since April.

  According to an investigation by NKB, an advertising agency, during the epidemic, home-based measures not only promoted food sales, but also significantly increased the sales of kitchen equipment, furniture, sports equipment and books, especially the contrarian growth of the game and video industries.

  According to the survey of Criteo, an online advertising agency, the sales of sportswear, training clothes, pajamas and other casual clothes have increased significantly in recent weeks. Due to the restriction of going out, the time at home has increased, and consumers will give priority to buying comfortable clothes.

  The sudden surge of home office has also spawned a large number of home improvement needs, and the home improvement industry has ushered in business opportunities. Since March, Hometech, a home improvement company, has launched the theme of "Workspace" renovation in official website to show customers various renovation schemes and cases. With the development of epidemic situation, the demand for setting up home delivery box without receiving express delivery in person, transforming touch-free home control equipment and updating antibacterial wallpaper has also increased greatly.

  After the chain fitness club Dongji Sports Oasis Company was forced to close the gym, it increased the online marketing of its own "fitness furniture", and its sales in March doubled from the previous month. The biggest feature of the company’s "fitness furniture" is that it can be used as furniture at ordinary times and become fitness equipment when exercising.

  With the extension of the state of emergency, home office and other measures tend to be long-term, and consumers stop snapping up after finding that the supply of materials is sufficient, and instead start chasing the fun of home life. According to statistics, the sales of snacks and snacks, as well as dumplings and spring rolls, have all increased significantly in the near future.

  This epidemic has also promoted the development of online diagnosis and treatment in Japan. The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare revised relevant regulations in April, relaxing the restrictions on the scope of patients and diseases applicable to online diagnosis and treatment. (Le Shaoyan)

Trump’s police reform has made it difficult for the United States, the police and the people to stand in opposition.

  On June 16, local time, US President Trump signed an executive order to adjust the US police practice and qualification standards. The executive order made a statement on the large-scale protests by the American people against police brutality and racial discrimination in the past month, which meant that the government would "conform to public opinion" and make police reform.

  However, the American media pointed out that the administrative order did not explicitly prohibit some violent law enforcement methods that the people strongly demanded to abolish, and the police system it proposed to improve law enforcement standards was actually "encouragement" rather than restraint. Public opinion believes that the reform of the executive order signed by Trump is weak, and it supports the reform in the open, but it is still a supporter of the police’s tough law enforcement in the dark.

The Washington Post pointed out that the administrative order of police reform signed by Trump is full of formalism.

  The executive order is to encourage, not to require, the law enforcement of throat lock has not been abolished.

  Trump told reporters that this executive order will help the police departments in the United States adopt the highest standards to serve their communities. The order stipulates "practice and qualification examination" and "information sharing of police behavior" to avoid employing police officers with bad records and to track down police officers who have committed misconduct in law enforcement.

  However, the media pointed out that the executive order failed to clearly respond to some key issues, such as the standard and justification of the use of force mentioned in the executive order, but only "encouraged" its implementation; In addition, regarding the law enforcement means of throat lock, the administrative order has not explicitly abolished it, but indicated that it is generally unavailable, but it can be used in the case that "the law allows the use of lethal force".

  The police surrounded Trump and called him "selfless" and "brave"

  A number of media pointed out that although the signing of this executive order was caused by African-American Freud’s violent law enforcement by white police, the families of the victims were not invited to attend Trump’s signing ceremony. On the contrary, many military officers and police union personnel were surrounded by Trump. This seems to mean that Trump will never touch these law enforcement officers on which he relies, and how to reconcile the "social problems that deeply split the country" is still far away.

  In the signing ceremony speech that day, after Trump mentioned the pain experienced by the relatives of the victims, he immediately began to praise the American police for being "brave and selfless" and said that "Americans all know that if there is no police, chaos will occur." The media pointed out that Trump’s signing of this executive order is full of formalism, and he obviously does not want to risk angering law enforcement departments, because these are an important part of his conservative political foundation.

The Washington Post pointed out that Trump "does not want to risk angering law enforcement because it is an important part of his conservative political foundation."

  Serious problems minimize the police’s mental illness

  Public opinion generally pointed out that Trump’s executive order made no mention of how to solve the systematic racism problems among law enforcement personnel and comprehensive policy changes. However, these issues are crucial to criminal justice reform. Kendall Thomas, a law professor at Columbia University, believes that Trump did not mention any commitment to serious changes in his executive order, but only focused on police training rather than community safety. Thomas believes that the purpose of Trump’s executive order is only to maintain the status quo, and the moderate reform in accordance with the new provisions of the executive order will only make the police force stronger.

  Trump has always stressed that police misconduct is a "case" and the number is "very small". Rachel Bako, professor and vice president of criminal law at new york University Law School, believes that this shows that Trump fundamentally refused to admit the existence of the problem in the first place. Bako said that the entire law enforcement system is supportive of those police officers who use violence excessively. Trump has neglected this systematic problem, and the executive order has completely ignored or even mentioned the morbid psychology in the police system and the opposition between the police and the people.

USA-Today pointed out that Trump’s executive order made no mention of how to solve the systematic racism problem among law enforcement personnel and the need for comprehensive reform.

  The reform of "thin soup and little water" must be intensified by administrative order.

  On the day Trump signed the executive order, Schumer, the minority leader and Democrat of the Senate, immediately said that Trump’s executive order was "scanty soup and scanty water" and "unable to bring the comprehensive and meaningful changes and accountability required by the American people to American law enforcement agencies."

  Earlier, the Police Justice Law submitted by the Democratic Party on June 8 called for a major reform of the police system, which explicitly required that police officers be prohibited from using frequently abused methods of law enforcement and arrest, such as lock throat and "no knocking at the door", and at the same time required local police departments to send data on the use of force to the federal government, and made a funding plan to allow state attorneys general to conduct independent procedures to investigate police misconduct or excessive law enforcement. In addition, the proposal will abolish the legal principle called "conditional immunity", and the police can no longer be exempted from civil litigation. These contents are not reflected in the newly signed administrative order.

USA-Today pointed out that there are a large number of people in the United States who can’t stand what the police have done.

  David Kennedy, a professor of criminology at john jay College of the City University of new york, said that the current executive order is far from enough to make practical changes. Kennedy said: "People think it may be a little helpful, and now it is not enough to provide just a little help." Kennedy said that the emotions and resistance expressed by the American people in the past few weeks are unprecedented, and their attitude towards American law enforcement departments has also changed dramatically, which shows that a large number of people in the United States can no longer stand what the police are doing.

Literature | Toona sinensis in spring

Toona sinensis is a kind of tree with strong vitality.

In early spring, when the wind is still hard and the sky is still cold, and other trees are still ignorant, Toona sinensis sprouts. Little red buds took the lead in sticking their heads out of the branches and timidly looked out. Hey, isn’t there a little green? Everyone is still immersed in the atmosphere of winter. I want to sprout quickly, and I can’t let other trees get ahead of me.

The next day, the buds of Toona sinensis were much bigger than the day before. On the third day, the small bud bud became several stretched leaves. The spring breeze blew, and the buds seemed to be blown away. In a blink of an eye, the whole tree was covered with fragrant and tender buds. Against the gray sky in early spring, the small buds are particularly eye-catching on the bare branches.

Nodding from the bud of Toona sinensis, the owner will look at it every day and think about the right day to break up every day. When the buds of Toona sinensis grow to a length, that is, the thumb and forefinger are stretched out so long, it is necessary to twist off the branches with long rods with hooks. There are new buds on the branches. Break off the buds of Toona sinensis from the branches and put them in the basket. The first stubble of Toona sinensis did not break much, because there were few buds.

Toona sinensis, the first crop, is also the most expensive, and its taste and fragrance are top grade, so the price is naturally extremely high. Toona sinensis buds cost one price a day, and the second crop of Toona sinensis is much cheaper. I remember that in the past, we didn’t eat the first crop of Toona sinensis, so we couldn’t afford it. It was very good to buy the second crop of Toona sinensis. It’s not like now. You can buy any stubble of Toona sinensis if you want.

Therefore, it is necessary to break the buds of Toona sinensis from the tree before it is too late, just like Zhang Ailing said, "Be famous before it is too early." Toona sinensis bud is a kind of leaf that takes the youth route. The younger it is, the more valuable it is, and so is leek. Toona sinensis became less and less valuable in the future. In the end, it was mixed in the green of poplar, French phoenix tree and locust tree, and became an ordinary neglected leaf.

Every spring, the Chinese Toona trees at the head of my building will be torn apart by long poles with hooks, almost bald, and their branches will be unscrewed to break off buds and abandoned on the ground, with different lengths and scattered all over the floor. I even thought that these trees were finished and life was coming to an end. However, after a few days, new buds began to sprout from other places, and they disappeared for a few days, and the trees were full of green. Toona sinensis is tossed once or twice every year, and then it comes back to life. It has tenacious vitality.

Yan Shu’s "Toon" said: "The trees in southern Chu are full of charm. Why use it for eight thousand years, Teng Ling is stunned by the bacteria. " The charm of Toona sinensis can be seen.

There are many ways to eat Toona sinensis, such as braising Toona sinensis in oil, scrambled eggs, and pickling into Toona sinensis sprouts, so enjoy your cooking. Most people eat the first crop of Toona sinensis, but few people care about the second crop, and it is no longer the poverty it used to be.

Although Toona sinensis has been eaten every year and eaten so many flavors, it was only at that time that the taste was amazing and then it was forgotten. Many years later, when I think of Toona sinensis, I was still in my grandmother’s yard when I was a child. In front of me was a big pot brought by my grandmother. I opened the steaming pot cover, and there was a pot of cooked Toona sinensis leaves in the pot. At this time, they can no longer be called Toona sinensis buds. They are mature leaves with thick joints and thick leaves, which are the last leaves that have been picked many times. These old leaves are cooked and salted to make pickles. Childhood is so poor that children don’t have any snacks to eat, so poor that they have to eat mature Toona sinensis leaves to make up for the lack of food.

Grandma took out a leaf from the pot, blew it on her mouth, and handed it to me if it was not too hot. I took it and put it in my mouth, and the skin on the pole was delicious, so I chewed it off bit by bit. The cooked leaves of Toona sinensis have a unique taste, without the delicacy of Toona sinensis buds, but with chewing heads. I have a handful of leaves in my left hand, my right hand is at my mouth, and my grandmother looks at me with a smile. She must feel that she has finally found something to eat for her nephew. Grandma is very happy.

Time has passed, the past has gone, and grandma’s smiling face is just fixed in the yard of that spring.
