On New Year's Eve, most companies have resumed work.

The same is true for Song Qian's Chengfeng Investment Company. Employees in the company returned to the company one after another after the New Year and started working.

At this time, the negotiation materials with Ahri were almost ready.

Song Qian was sitting in the company's office, looking at a pile of information about Ahri placed on the table, feeling a little lost.

"It seems that setting up a company is indeed the right choice. Such detailed information cannot be produced by myself alone," Song Qian said with a sigh.

The information in front of me is the result of Sun Yali's overtime work during the Chinese New Year.

The information is very detailed, including various data since Ali was founded, as well as its current operating status.

Song Qian also made a document like this when he was negotiating with Penguin. He was well aware of the hard work involved, so he was quite grateful to Sun Yali for her efforts during this period.

With this information, Song Qian's confidence in successfully negotiating has increased a bit.

Time flew by, and today was really the day to negotiate with Ahri.

Song Qian went to the appointment in formal dress and asked Sun Yali to go with him as his secretary.

The New Year has just ended, and the weather in Suzhou and Hangzhou is still a bit cold, but Suzhou-Hangzhou Airport is very popular.

After getting off the plane, Song Qian and Sun Yali took a taxi directly to Ali Company.

He was about to meet the legendary Jack Horse, and Song Qian was still a little nervous.

After all, this old horse is different from the old horse he met before. This is a real big shot.

Half of the reason why Penguin's old horse is so successful is because it climbed up on the shoulders of others.

And Jack Mana actually built the world by his own efforts.

When dealing with a boss of this level, as long as Song Qian is not careful, he may be led by others.

Although Song Qian had memories of his previous life, he did not dare to expose him too much in front of Jack Ma.

Because Jack Ma is an extremely smart person, Song Qian even suspected that Jack Ma might have already planned the development route of Ali Company in the next twenty years.

If Song Qian said what he was thinking, it might just be the icing on the cake, and it would not have the effect of providing help in times of need.

But Song Qian wanted to build his own business empire, so winning Ahli was a hurdle Song Qian had to overcome in the past.

No matter how difficult it is, Song Qian can only face the difficulties, and this time Song Qian must succeed.

Because Song Qian knew that if he missed this opportunity, he might not have the chance to invest in Ahli again in the future.

Because this time point is exactly the moment when the number of Ali users is about to exceed 10 million, and it is also the moment when Ali is about to face its first crisis since its establishment.

Song Qian remembered that in a few months, Ahri would face a catastrophic blow, which was a boycott by merchants.

This is also a collateral impact of the Internet bubble. In this year, not only Ali will face such a crisis, but other Internet companies will also not have an easy time.

Within a year, 80% of domestic Internet companies went bankrupt. Although Ahri successfully weathered the storm with the persistence of its eighteen founders, it also suffered heavy losses.

This year is a year of major reshuffle in the Internet industry, and it is also the best time for Song Qian to enter the market with capital.

He must take advantage of this year's crisis to invest in more potential companies and have a certain say in these companies.

It was similar to the scene when he first met Penguin Ma. At this moment, Jack Ma also had a sad look on his face.

Before he even entered the door, Song Qian could already hear Jack Ma's angry lecture.

"Even if I close the company, I still can't compromise on this matter!" Jackma said loudly.

"But Mr. Ma, the current situation in the industry is like this. Ninety percent of businesses require kickbacks to do business. If we act independently, we will become the public enemy of the industry." An employee at the bottom persuaded.

"You have to understand that we, Ahri, are just a service provider!"

"The core of our business is to provide merchants with a fair, convenient and safe online transaction environment. We are not a participant in these transactions!"

"If we, as service providers, take the lead in encouraging such vicious trading rules, how can we achieve long-term development?"

Lao Ma's voice was filled with anger and helplessness.

The Jackma team has discussed this issue countless times, but has never come up with a solution that has both sides.

On the one hand, we want to coordinate the interests of businesses, and on the other hand, we have to estimate the company's long-term development.

It is indeed not easy to find a balance point in this contradictory relationship.

Jack Ma clearly knew in his heart that the current environment was an excellent opportunity for Ahri to rise rapidly, but he was hindered by the old habit of taking kickbacks from these merchants.

If this matter is not resolved, even if Ahri intends to expand, it will not last long.

Speaking of funds, Ahri currently has no shortage of funds, but just having money is of no use.

What Lao Ma wants to build is not just a company that makes money, but a company that can change the industry structure and even change people's lifestyles.

If you just want to be a profitable company, then Lao Ma is undoubtedly very successful now.

But this goes against Lao Ma's plan and the original intention of establishing Ahri Company.

That’s why he said that just now: “Even if the company goes bankrupt, it’s impossible to change the company’s principles!”

Because he, Lao Ma, wants to make sure that there is no business that cannot be done in this world!

Let there be no business that cannot be done in the world. This sentence will become one of Lao Ma's classic sayings in the future.

Song Qian and Sun Yali were in the living room, listening to the heated discussion coming from the office next door.

Hearing these discussions, Song Qian couldn't sit still. If he didn't show up, nothing would happen to him.

So Song Qian stood up directly, ignored the obstruction of the staff at the door of the conference room, pushed the door directly and walked into the conference room.

Everyone in the conference room looked at the unfamiliar face who suddenly opened the door with blank expressions.

What's going on?

Who is this person?

How did he get in?

A series of questions appeared in everyone's mind.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ma, this man insisted on breaking in, and I couldn't stop him..." The staff member who followed Song Qian in nervously explained.
