The scale of consumers of fast food delivery service in China
The fast food delivery service, which depends on the already-existing restaurants, can cover a larger place with more customers without taking the seats of restaurants. Under the current economic and market condition, the fast food delivery service has been the new battlefield of the fast food giants in China. Even MacDonald’s and KFC, the two international fast food giants are fighting against each other for more market share in China’s fast food delivery industry.
However, Jing Linbo, Deputy Director of the Institute of Finance and Trade Economics, the Chinese Academy of Social Science, thought that the fast food delivery is the new growth point of fast food enterprises. But the fast food enterprises should have certain comprehensive strengths to do this service, which is thought to be different from the traditional food industry in some aspects.
Besides, with the development of the new industry, there also emerge problems. And some observers have given their warnings. They warn that if the fast food enterprises take no notice of the hidden problems, they will lose the customers in the competitive market gradually.

How many cabs in New York City? How many tears in a bottle of wine? These aren’t just the lyrics (歌词)to a song by the Australian musician Paul Kelly. They are the kind of questions you are likely to be asked during a job interview.
In recent years, it has become common for bosses to ask interview questions that are impossible to answer. There is no right answer to these “brainteasers”. Instead, they are supposed to help an interviewer calculate an applicant’s ability to reason. What matters is how you come to the conclusion, not what conclusion you arrive at.
Brainteasers started out in management consultancy firms. Young graduates hoping to join the company would be asked: “How many phone booths are there in Manhattan?” They weren ’ t expected to blurt out (脱 口说出)a random number — instead, they were expected to show they could solve even the most stupid problem.
As consultants swarmed across other organizations, they bought their inscrutable (难 以理解的)questions with them. Now, people applying for a job in a call centre can expect to be asked how a nuclear power plant works.
While many bosses have great confidence in how good or effective brainteasers are, a research paper published in the journal Applied Psychology found they are useless for spotting the best candidate for the job. What they are great for is to make employers feel like intellectual giants.
The study’s findings are not surprising. Studies have repeatedly found that most methods of selecting job candidates are hopelessly flawed (有缺点的).Job interviews are among the worst way of picking the right person for the job.
The results of this research raise the question: if interviews are bad at picking the right person for the job, what are they there for? One feeling I have is that many job selection processes are thinly disguised (伪装的)forms of suffering, designed to make applicants feel worthless and boost the confidence of the person asking the question.
Think about the extensive list of personal skills required for even the most lowly entry-level job. Or those painful assessment centres where you are supposed to play nice with people you are competing against to get the job. And then there are the firms that ask applicants to make a presentation to convey how awesome the firms are. All these exercises seem designed not to get the best person for the role, but to assure the boss how great they are, and remind you just how lucky you would be to get this boring job.
