In 2010, wheat bags in Taobao's advertising has been appended to the 2000 to 3000 million year achieved sales of 150 million yuan.
This is an experience, so that Ye Haifeng then realize the truth: the traditional companies want to do something in the field of electronic commerce, it must warrior arm, e-commerce and traditional channels of completely separated. Because of the short term to bring the value of the emerging e-commerce will certainly be far less than the size of the traditional channels has become to bring value. Otherwise, when companies make decisions likely to bring fear to the traditional channels, the impact of varying degrees of neglect and sacrifice the interests of commerce, thus affecting the long-term development of e-commerce.

Now, in the wheat bags $ 300 million in 2010 sales, Taobao and B2C official website of the contribution to the almost equally divided.
