In fact, I am more optimistic about the development prospects of JD.com, although Tmall and Taobao are still the most used. After comparing the prices of goods on the two platforms, we found that Tmall and Taobao are generally much cheaper than JD.com, so we concluded: "JD.com is finished." In fact, many merchants on Tmall and Taobao do not pay taxes on their goods

(JD.com pays taxes on all of them). This is an important reason for the low prices, and also the reason why JD.com lags behind the two. In today's imperfect national legal system, it is quite good for JD.com to be profitable. Think about it, the average salary of Chinese people is so low, and it is human nature to give priority to low-priced goods. But society must progress anyway, and the law is constantly improving. The reason why Tmall and Taobao are not required to pay taxes is that today, when large enterprises are laying off employees, the country must rely on small and micro enterprises to ensure employment, and the number of small and micro enterprises on these two platforms is undoubtedly huge, although the actual number of active merchants is definitely much lower.

Once the state promulgates laws, all online stores will pay taxes, and Tmall and Taobao will no longer have any price advantages. At this time, the advantages of JD Logistics will be fully highlighted (JD’s competitor is actually SF Express, not Tmall and Taobao), which is why Alibaba is doing its best to develop Cainiao Logistics. According to Jack Ma, “JD will be a tragedy sooner or later” and “We will make every merchant become JD and Amazon.” You know, you just took advantage of the legal loophole.
