AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/18 Report--

There is news on the Internet today that Renren has declared bankruptcy and now dominates the departure of all employees. Netizens revealed on Weibo: "Renche officially declared bankruptcy."

The netizen sent out a picture and posted a text saying: have you verified with the friend of Renren car, Renren car is yellow?

The picture shows "Renmin officially declared bankruptcy", and the following line reads, "if you know the details, you will inform everyone to leave anyway."

Soon Renche's official Weibo "refuted the rumor" under the news: "Renren car is operating normally, please do not believe the rumor." However, after Renche responded to netizens' comments on Weibo, it was "miserable", with netizens commenting that Renche sites in Chongqing, Guiyang and Chengdu had been "closed".

After that, netizens sent private messages one after another, all saying that "the news is true."

"the news of Renmin car is true. I am an employee of Renmin car. Since yesterday, my business has stopped all over the country."

"hi, Shanghai Renmin car evaluator, all personnel in Shanghai have been disbanded, equipment deposit beauty 1500."

"I am an employee of Renren car in Guiyang; the news is true."

In response to the rumors of "bankruptcy" on the Internet, Renche issued a statement in response: the news is not true, all business is operating normally, there is artificial deliberate transmission, and evidence has been collected and reported to the public security organs.

Subsequently, Renche CEO Li Jian also issued an internal letter saying that the new strategy in 2018 has been piloted in 17 cities, including Hangzhou, and will officially launch the strategic upgrade of "New platform, New Retail" today, and several major support and enabling measures will be launched one after another, including the establishment of a 80 million yuan special support fund, the landing of new retail stores and the increase of brand advertising.

It is understood that since October last year, Renmin car has successively closed its business in Ganzhou, Weihai, Jilin and other cities, and then deleted the slogan "covering more than 100 cities" from the introduction. after that, there were only 75 cities on the list of cities served by people's cars. The data show that as of August 22 last year, there were more than 450 stations in Youxin used car city and more than 200 in Guazi city. Renren car also lagged behind Youxin and Guazi in terms of used car turnover. A year ago, Li Jian, CEO of Renmin car, confidently said that he would "expand the coverage of cities from 100to 150,200", but judging from the current situation, Li Jian's dream of opening a city has been mercilessly punched in the face.

Renche's official Weibo response denied the rumors of "bankruptcy", while Li Jian's internal letter revealed that Renmin officially launched a "strategic upgrade", but it does not seem groundless that Renche is shutting down the site on a large scale. Last year, it was reported that Renche was in large-scale Guancheng, which could reach 20%, and from the reaction of netizens today, it seems that Renmin has begun a new round of large-scale "shutdown". If Renren's business adjustment leads to the closure of many of its sites, it also means that many Renmin employees have to find another way out.
