How valuable is "product selection"? How long can Amazon survive by relying on "product selection"?

A: It can be maintained for a long time. You said, "When others can only distribute goods, it is indeed better to be able to select products, but this is not a technical thing after all, just like "operation". It seems very powerful at the beginning, but later it becomes basic operation. You have it, I have it, and everyone has it." It just seems to be the case. The aunties selling pancakes at the roadside snack stalls are all basic operations, but some people bake them better than others. Operation and product selection are the same principle. The routines are the same and everyone understands them, but everyone's execution, endurance, and vision are different, and the degree of sophistication and intensity of doing things are even more different. What is the result? Most people will think that a certain category is already a very red ocean and there is no opportunity to cut in, but a small number of people can find business opportunities and entry points in the red ocean. I don't know what the questioner means by basic operation. There is really nothing high-end about operation and product selection, but in terms of the detail and breadth of doing things, the results of different people vary greatly. Mediocre operation, mediocre development, lack of independent thinking, lack of innovation, lack of deep cultivation, these people will definitely be eliminated. However, some sellers who rely solely on "product selection" to find goods for Amazon will still survive well, because the market continues to change, supply and demand continue to change, and opportunities belong to those who embrace change.
