Abstract

The emergence of the sharing economy provides the value reconstruction of the scarcity of idle resources, provides an efficient business model for economic growth and transformation, and becomes an important driver of supply-side reform. Didi Kuaidi is a combination of transportation and the Internet, that is, a form of application that combines actual objects with the Internet. For people's travel, it can also better meet people's short-distance needs, and a new business model makes it have a larger commercial space. At present, Didi Kuaidi ranks in the forefront of domestic Didi Kuaidi operators and seems to be able to sit in Diaoyutai from the perspective of scale. However, Didi Kuaidi still faces many challenges. This paper analyzes the connotation and role of the sharing economy, expounds the operating mechanism and development status of the sharing economy business model, and then makes a case analysis of Didi Kuaidi's business model. It puts forward policy suggestions for the healthy and sustainable development of the sharing economy, including focusing on the construction of Didi Kuaidi, improving service management procedures, actively realizing automated system operation, rational business operation, transforming operating costs, and expanding Didi Kuaidi's promotion methods. It is of great significance to the development of Didi Kuaidi.
