China Duty Free Corporation’s long-term position as the top spot in the domestic 188bet mobile industry seems to have changed slightly。Reporter from Beijing Business Daily found out，Recent，China’s new and old opponents are frequently making moves，On the one hand，The Hainan outlying island 188bet mobile market that China Duty Free most relies on，Announcement of the introduction of market competition，Bidding and other methods will be used to recruit new business entities；On the other hand，China Duty Free has long been deployed in the field of 188bet mobile shops in mainland cities，Not only are old rivals like Zhongchu Service "encircling fans" with the new policy of phased extension of shopping qualifications，We may also have to face the "vigorous pursuit" of retail giants in Beijing and Shanghai。In this case，China Duty Free has quietly begun to develop its efforts in the field of cross-border e-commerce，Announced adjustments to the membership application rules of its Rishang Duty Free Shop cross-border e-commerce platform "CDF Beijing Shopping"，That is, as long as you are a member of Sunshine Duty Free Beijing and have international flight return information, you can sign up to become a member of this platform。“It can be seen，Surrounded by powerful enemies，When opponents from all walks of life want to further share the tax-free cake，CDF also feels a certain crisis，Finding new ways out is the general trend，However，If CDFG cannot eliminate the industry’s doubts about the compliance of its cross-border e-commerce business，The road ahead is still hard to say smooth。”Experts say。

Problem 1: The competition gate has opened. Hainan Islands Duty 188bet mobile says goodbye to "one family dominates"

After the 188bet mobile shopping limit on Hainan Islands is increased to 100,000 yuan per person per year，The local 188bet mobile industry has handed over a good report card。According to Xinhua News Agency，In the first week of the implementation of the new tax-free policy on Hainan Islands from July 1st to 7th，Visitors from outlying islands purchased 4 items in total.500 million yuan，tax-free 65.71 million yuan，The average daily tax exemption is 9.39 million yuan，Average daily increase of 58 compared with the first half of the year.2%。

The Hainan outlying island 188bet mobile rapidly growing and highly concentrated, stimulated by policy dividends，New changes are coming。

2 years ago，China Tourism Group, the parent company of 188bet mobile Group, heads south，Move domestic headquarters from Beijing to Hainan，One stone stirs up a thousand waves。At that time，The industry has a view: this time，This “China’s No. 1 Tourism State-owned Enterprise” is determined to “take root” in Hainan

After “settling” in Hainan，188bet mobile has quickly become a member of China Tourism Group’s expansion of territory，Even its listed companies have been renamed from "China International Travel Service" to "China Duty Free"。Among them，China Duty Free Group has become one of the “main players” in the 188bet mobile section of China Tourism Group。"It can be said，In the past 2 years，China Duty Free’s absolute dominant position in the 188bet mobile industry in Hainan Islands has become very clear。" said Zhou Mingqi, founder of Jingjian Think Tank。Actually，The previous announcement issued by the Ministry of Finance is also displayed，Currently there are only 4 188bet mobile shops in Hainan that are qualified to implement the offshore island 188bet mobile policy and implement franchises，And they all belong to the "China Free System"，Even the two outlying island 188bet mobile stores under Haidu Duty Free are purchased and supplied by China Duty Free Group。

However，The latest announcement jointly issued by the three departments in Hainan，But it seems to be deliberately breaking the current market structure。According to announcement，Hainan Provincial Department of Finance、The Department of Commerce and the Market Supervision Bureau are following relevant regulations，According to business brand、Variety、Principles of price and international synchronization，Use bidding and other market-based competition methods to select and determine the newly added 188bet mobile shopping business entities in Hainan Islands。The business entity of the organization submitted an application to establish a 188bet mobile shop on an outlying island，Will be reported to the Ministry of Finance in accordance with regulations、General Administration of Customs、Approved according to procedures after review by the State Administration of Taxation and the Ministry of Commerce。

Actually，At the end of June，The Ministry of Finance also clearly pointed out，One of the key points in the adjustment of Hainan’s outlying island tax-free policy is to encourage moderate competition，That is, business entities with 188bet mobile product distribution qualifications can participate in 188bet mobile operations on Hainan outlying islands in accordance with regulations。

“The signal released by Hainan is already very obvious，It is to change the current situation of "one family dominates" 188bet mobile in outlying islands。” Bai Ming, deputy director of the International Market Research Department of the Institute of International Trade and Economic Cooperation of the Ministry of Commerce, said bluntly，For CDF，It is only a matter of time before “competing products” appear in offshore 188bet mobile shops，Profit margins are bound to be compressed in the future，If you continue to maintain the status of "sitting in business", it is very likely that other companies will divert the customer flow，“Small profits but quick turnover”、Highlighting personalized operation is likely to become the key word for China Duty Free Business in operating outlying island duty free business in the next stage。

Zhou Mingqi thinks，Due to the supply of 188bet mobile goods in China、Obvious comparative advantages in brand categories，Short time，Other brands may not pose much of a threat to China Duty Free，"However，Tax-free shopping quota of 100,000 yuan per person per year，In addition, stimulated by the “Fly as You Want” products of various airlines，The tempting big cake of Hainan Islands Duty Free will attract more and more companies to come and smell the fragrance、Split the pie，CDF wants to maintain its profit margin as it has been in the past，It may be necessary to establish new advantages on more battlefields besides Hainan。”

Problem 2: Limited business qualifications, tax exemption 188bet mobile city or being "overtaken in a corner"

At present, my country’s inbound and outbound tourism has been significantly affected by the epidemic，When the market size shrinks sharply，The sudden rise of 188bet mobile shops in the city，quickly became popular in the domestic tourism consumer market。"However，In this area，CDF has been keeping a low profile recently。" Zhou Mingqi said。

Days ago，Chinese export service established one year earlier than China Duty Free Group，On the hot search list because the city’s 188bet mobile shops have gradually extended the 188bet mobile shopping qualifications for Chinese people，Various store celebration promotions for Chinese servers、The heavy discounts and its new Qianmen store to be opened in Beijing have also become hot topics among netizens。One time，The creampie service that has been low-key for many years is unparalleled in the limelight。

More importantly，Today’s China Free Shipping，In the city's tax-free field, we not only have to face the old rival of the Chinese game server，We must also "beware" of the "pursuit" of new entrants。Days ago，Wangfujing and Bailian, two giants in the domestic retail field，A series of actions in the 188bet mobile industry have aroused speculation in the industry。The former just issued an announcement on July 8，Planned to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary, Beijing Wangfujing Duty Free Products Management Co., Ltd.，Registered capital 500 million yuan，Used to carry out 188bet mobile goods operations and other businesses；The latter expressed it publicly the day before，Has applied to relevant government departments for 188bet mobile goods business qualifications。

Although Wangfujing has stated many times that it has not yet launched substantial tax-free business，Bailian’s 188bet mobile license has not yet been finalized，But someone familiar with the matter told a Beijing Business Daily reporter，These two old commercial enterprises in Beijing and Shanghai，Most likely based on its existing commercial infrastructure，Actively strive to focus the 188bet mobile business on local 188bet mobile shops，The main audience should be similar to the Chinese server，For Chinese citizens with entry and exit records。Actually，Just at the end of last year，There is news in the industry，The shopping mall signed by Bailian to be built in Shanghai Lingang New Area，It is likely to include tax-free business。

“Actually，Policies for future 188bet mobile shops in the city、The direction of development should continue to converge，Competition among companies with relevant qualifications will also become increasingly fierce。" Bai Ming said。However，Zhou Mingqi also proposed，Judging from the current situation，China Duty Free Group has not yet obtained the authority to operate for Chinese people，We really need to speed up our pace。

Public information display，Years ago，CDF was in Beijing、Shanghai、Have registered and operated city 188bet mobile shops or opened city 188bet mobile shop companies in Dalian and other places，But then due to various reasons，Some 188bet mobile shops and companies were canceled for a time。2006，There are media reports，The number of 188bet mobile shops in the city of China Duty Free has been reduced to only one remaining open。Until last year，China Free Trade Zone restarts in a centralized manner、Newly opened many 188bet mobile shops in the city。Currently，It is different from the Chinese service which is carrying out product promotions in full swing，When a Beijing Business Daily reporter called China Duty Free Group this week，Customer service staff said，Currently, China Duty Free stores in Beijing are still temporarily closed，The reopening time is not yet determined。When the reporter sent an interview outline to China Duty Free City regarding the operation of 188bet mobile shops in the city in the past year and the next step of business resumption plan，No reply as of press time。

"Future，If more and more companies begin to enter the city’s 188bet mobile market，Especially those commercial brands with a certain foundation on the consumer side have obtained licenses，Then the performance pressure of China Duty Free in the city’s duty free field will also increase day by day。"Zhou Mingqi said bluntly。

Problem 3: The positioning needs to be clarified and the road ahead for cross-border 188bet mobile is unpredictable

actually，Facing the ever-changing tax-188bet mobile world，CDF also began to plan its own new way out，Cross-border e-commerce is an item that has attracted much attention in the industry recently。

July 12，Discovered by Beijing Business Daily reporter，The official WeChat public account of Rishang Duty Free (China) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of 188bet mobile Corporation, announced，The "CDF Member Shopping Beijing" online shopping platform established by it has adjusted the membership application rules，As long as the consumer is a member of Rishang Duty Free Beijing，If you have international flight return information, you can sign up to become a member。According to the further explanation of the official account staff，The flight content required for the application only needs to be the applicant’s most recent return international flight information。Meanwhile，The official Weibo also stated，After member’s first registration，Shopping qualification is valid for 60 days，You can renew your membership only if you spend 6,000 yuan or more within this period，If this entry is not reached，Membership will be automatically canceled。

A consumer told a Beijing Business Daily reporter，Compared to the past，This time, the membership application qualifications of "CDF Membership Beijing" are almost fully liberalized。“The platform initially requires that those who apply for membership must meet requirements such as having entry and exit records 188bet mobile past 180 days and having more than 500 points 188bet mobile CDF membership account，And you can’t be elected directly after applying，You must pass the ‘lottery’ to be eligible to buy and buy。"Introduced by this consumer，But soon afterwards，She discovered that the membership application requirements of "CDF Membership Beijing" seem to be increasingly relaxed，After registering by yourself with entry and exit records that have been applied for once and are more than 180 days ago，You can still "win the lottery"。Next，The platform has introduced an invitation membership system，That is, if the consumer himself has become a member of "CDF Membership Beijing"，You can invite 3 new members to join the membership and the new members still need to have international flight return information、Mobile phone number、ID card number and other information，Repeat registration is not allowed。

“It can be seen，CDF Express indeed feels a certain crisis。" Zhou Mingqi said frankly，188bet mobile’s cross-border e-commerce platform continues to expand its membership recruitment scope in the short term，Probably in order to form a large customer base as soon as possible，Let cross-border e-commerce business become a new source of income for the group，The part of supplementary tax exemption that may be diverted。But on the other hand，If 188bet mobile really wants to become a cross-border e-commerce or even an e-commerce platform，You still need to fundamentally clarify your positioning，Ensure that this business competes with other companies on the compliance track。

Zhou Mingqi confessed，Undeniable，China Duty Free still has certain advantages in cross-border e-commerce，For example, guarantee of authenticity of supply, etc.，But on the other hand，Doing cross-border e-commerce under the name of Rishang Duty Free and other 188bet mobile brands，In addition, the product prices on the platform are reported by consumers to be the same as or even lower than those at airport 188bet mobile shops，It does make people worry about the independence of its e-commerce purchasing channels。In addition，He also mentioned，Due to the obvious price difference and the minimum consumption requirement for member shopping amount，In the future, CDFG’s cross-border e-commerce platform will inevitably encounter purchasing agents、Place order etc.，This is also a key issue that CDF must solve when managing this part of its business in the future。
