Tang Liang's founding club, Tang Wang.
In 2006, Tang Liang's wedding company business has spread all over the country, and it has also undertaken luxury weddings of many celebrities, which is quite famous in the industry. At this time, Tang Liang began to try the Internet and set up an Internet gift website, but it was not long before it was closed due to excessive losses. For the Internet model of the wedding industry, Tang Liang has many ideas, such as building a wedding customized website with high-end wedding planners as the core, improving the level of the industry and building barriers. I also thought about building a website for customizing gifts, where users can choose their own gift styles and lettering online, and then pick up the goods at the physical store. However, due to various reasons, these ideas did not take shape in the environment at that time.

However, Tang Liang has never given up forming professional barriers and tried to use the Internet. It was not until he met his partner Li Jian that he hit it off and planned to build a B2B conference service website-Huitang.com on the basis of traditional conference services.

The name "grey soup" was invented by Tang Liang and Li Jian. In fact, they originally wanted to use the word "hall", but they could not register because it overlapped with the Great Hall of the People. After discussion, they decided to use the word "Tang". On the one hand, "Tang" is the surname of Tang Liang, and its pronunciation is the same as "Tang". On the other hand, "Tang" sounds tall and like China. As soon as you say "Hui Tang", you will know that you are an exhibition. Subsequent products of Huitang are also named after the word "Hui", such as venue cloud, Huibang and Huitong. The English name is eventown, and the translation homonym is also Tang.

In the early days, there were few teams and the office was shabby. Due to the need to collect data all over the country, the company recruited six senior students at Beijing Institute of Petrochemical Technology and jumped on the train from the north with them. Every time they go to a city, they jump out of the car and go to a hotel where they can have a meeting to measure the specific data themselves. In the era without Internet, the work of data collection is accumulated step by step.

This initiative has not received sufficient support. For example, some hotels feel that they don't need to surf the Internet, and some hotels suspect that they are sent by competitors. It took Tang Liang and his team about half a year to record the data of almost all hotel venues in China on the Internet for the first time-that is, put it on Huitang. Tang Liang doesn't have a clear idea about how to use and manipulate these data.

After operating at a loss for more than a year, Tang Liang and Li Jian decided to change the mode, directly provide offline conference services for all online customers, subsidize online business with the money earned, and operate in a mode of combining online and offline.
