Chapter 676: Fragile Persistence
"That's it?" Jin Ling looked at Feng Yiping in disbelief, "Just with such a few light words, you two decided on such a big thing?"
"Isn't this a joke? It's incredible!"
"Yes," Feng Yiping actually had some doubts about whether this matter was true. "But how complicated it is, our two sides are in the same direction."
From his perspective, Taobao and Tmall are combined into one in the future, which is a very normal and correct thing. Please search (Pin#) to see the most comprehensive! The fastest updated one
"You haven't drunk too much," Jin Ling said angrily, "or have you forgotten that you have already set up your plans?"
"Do you still remember what position this e-commerce platform is in our layout? Do you still remember how many companies we have are actually set up to serve this e-commerce platform?" Jin Ling said in a panic.
"You suddenly want to accept a partner like this. Do you know what this means? It means that we have to go through the process we have already walked through, which means that we will have to thoroughly calculate a lot of our companies...."
"Do you know how much time this will waste and how much additional cost it will incur?" She felt a headache after thinking about it.
"I know, I know," Feng Yiping rubbed his forehead and lay down on the sofa. "Isn't this a verbal intentional agreement? Our e-commerce platform has not been online yet, and it's time,"
"Stop talking, I'll be quiet for a while, I'll stroke it," he waved his hand and closed his eyes.
Why is Lao Ma so eager to propose to cooperate with himself when he has already gained an advantage in the confrontation with ebay? It seems to be a bit sloppy.
Hasty? It seems that in the original trajectory, Alibaba's cooperation with Yahoo next year can be considered hasty. After a few talks, it reached a strategic cooperation intention - Yahoo included Yahoo China and acquired 40% of Alibaba's equity for US$1 billion.
When choosing Yahoo, it is naturally important to value Yahoo's influence in the industry and the traffic that Yahoo China may import to Taobao.
Jiasheng can do this now.
Now, I and my own company, especially in China, must have a greater influence than Yahoo China, which has not developed very smoothly.
From importing traffic, to assisting in forming management teams, to providing other necessary support... In many aspects, I have been able to provide systematic help like those first-class international venture capitalists.
So at this point, it is not unreasonable to replace Chief Yang and Yahoo.
Then, all that cooperation is left is money, a total investment worth $1 billion, which is not a problem for me now.
"I understand," Feng Yiping opened his eyes, "it's money, it's money," he said loudly, "that's why he seems to have asked me for cooperation so hasty,"
Alibaba's current development should urgently need a large amount of funds, and it is estimated that time has not waited for anyone. Otherwise, why are you so anxious to sell 40% of your company's equity at a price of US$1 billion?
I believe that any entrepreneur will be very cautious about giving up 40% of his equity at one time, which is a very easy number to gain control of the company.
The only conclusion is that they must have calculated that they can use hundreds of millions of dollars of cash to develop the company quickly, and for this reason, it is also cost-effective to give up 40% of the equity.
Later, everyone was very annoyed that Alibaba was worthless and invested one billion dollars in Yahoo but received more than tens of billions of dollars in return. But what they didn't consider was how important Yahoo's billion dollars was to Alibaba's development at this time.
After understanding why Alibaba was so anxious to cooperate with Yahoo, we could understand Lao Ma’s proposal this time that he unexpectedly made.
In other words, after meeting the previous condition, if you intend to talk to Lao Ma now, you can actually talk about the conditions for obtaining 40% of Alibaba's equity, perhaps it will not take as much as $1 billion.
"So you think he thinks we are his ideal partner now? He welcomes us to invest again based on the original holdings?" Jin Ling said.
"Yes," said Feng Yiping.
"I think another possibility cannot be ruled out. He first used the excuse of cooperation to stabilize us, and then stepped up the development of b2c websites like our online platform," said Jin Ling.
Feng Yiping was stunned for a moment, "No,"
This was his subconscious reaction. Later Lao Ma was so positive, emotional and responsible, and it was impossible for him to do such a thing.
"With such a tight fund, they shouldn't have done so much,"
This is more rational. Lao Ma shouldn't have done anything like lying to face.
Besides, Feng Yiping and Jiasheng are not so easy to fool now. If you want to fool, you must have the courage to bear the consequences.
"No," he shook his head again, this time he was more certain.
"Although the truth is this, many things are not based on the truth?" Jin Ling said.
"Yes, we are members of Alibaba's board of directors, but we have not intervened in the specific business. In this case, it is not impossible for the management team to secretly develop a new project without us being aware of it," he said.
"Okay, just pay more attention," Jin Ling did not have a special impression of Lao Ma like Feng Yiping. At the same time, she raised these questions from the perspective of the executor, which shows that she has a very comprehensive view of the problem, which is worthy of recognition.
"I think our cooperation will be prepared in this direction for the time being. The main thing is to cooperate with Alibaba on the online platform, and it will not involve other companies. Whether it is Youjia or express delivery companies, we will discuss it in detail in the future."
Feng Yiping said this, making things refreshed at least halfway.
"You should also think about it from a different perspective. Alibaba is undoubtedly a signboard in our country in the e-commerce field. Our e-commerce platform cooperates with it, which is not completely useless, right? No matter how hard it is, it can be considered a strong alliance,"
Although he believed that under the current conditions, Jiasheng's own team could also operate this online platform similar to Tmall later, it is also a good choice to hand it over to the Alibaba team and develop together with Taobao.
After all, facts have proved that the Alibaba team did a pretty job later.
From a personal perspective, this arrangement also makes him feel the most relaxed.
Replacing foreign investors by yourself can make it easier for all parties, especially domestic consumers, to accept emotionally.

"What's wrong today?" After returning to the upper floor, Huang Jingping felt that Feng Yiping was a little different from usual.
"Nothing," Feng Yiping hugged her, "but today I made a decision that would have a profound impact,"
"A decision will be very favorable to us?" Huang Jingping asked this first.
"Benefit? That's inevitable,"
I have found an executive team destined to be excellent for my online platform, and also found a good opportunity to invest in the most successful Internet company in China..., which is definitely a good thing.
Besides, when you think about the fact that you may have obtained at least 40% of your shares and Alibaba's market value later, although he has passed the time to be excited about the money, he will inevitably be a little excited because the money is too big.
Yahoo and SoftBank’s investment in Alibaba are both corporate, so even if there is such a big return, it is not very eye-catching to be accented by many shareholders of the two companies.
Jiasheng is different. Although there are also shareholders on the surface, they are actually all on their left hand and right hand. Think about it, after a company with a market value of Alibaba, 40% of the shares are actually in their own hands. In terms of personal wealth, what is Bill Gates and Buffett?
As he thought about it, Feng Yiping felt that he had to blow the cold wind.
However, at the beginning, he insisted not to involve any of the three Bat companies. Now, because of the development of his company, he has no choice on this issue.
Haha, this is really a very fragile persistence.
The main reason is that although I was sure that I would succeed at that time, I did not expect that I would be so successful and in so many fields.
When he opened a convenience store, his vision for his future online mall was only similar to that of an online supermarket like No. 1 Store. Now, it is really impossible not to start Tmall first.
It can be seen that all the presets in the world are the same as those of a girl who is in love when she is just about the other half. They are very beautiful, but not realistic.
It is also the same as those adult women who are searching for their partner, and the same presets for their marriage: if you have a house, it is best to have a villa with a swimming pool; if you have a car, it is best to have a two-door supercar... It is understandable, but it is difficult to implement.
Many times, what ultimately determines our actions can only be beautiful or cruel reality.

"Well, Amanda is asleep," Huang Jingping turned her head and kissed Feng Yiping skillfully. Her eyes were full of love. She obviously misunderstood the reason why Feng Yiping was getting hot.
Feng Yiping obviously didn't want to explain it to her clearly. He twisted her back with one hand through the clothes, then reached into her skirt and pulled it down, and skillfully solved the two most critical armed forces...
More than 20 minutes later, looking at the very clear and deep human-shaped mark on the leather sofa, Huang Jingping, who leaned softly on Feng Yiping, was a little shy, "This is all sweat, I have to wash it tomorrow."
"Since they want to wash the sofa, let them wash the carpet,"
"Ah, why? Oh!" Huang Jingping, who was pressed by Feng Yiping on the carpet next to the coffee table, immediately understood that she had asked a lot of questions.
The temperature in the room quickly rose...
…………
After soaking in the bathtub, Huang Jingping recovered her spirits, but she couldn't help but have a unique charm in her voice. "The day after tomorrow, I want to go back to the town, stay at my house for a few days, and stay at your house for a few more days,"
"Well, I have no objection," the parents on both sides may not think of them now, but they will definitely think of Amanda, the baby granddaughter. If you have the chance, you should let them see more.
"From now, no matter whether you leave or not, I have to go back to the United States. Now is the critical time over the restaurant,"
"I'll have to stay in the capital for a few days, and at the latest it's half a month, I have to leave," this time I went to the United States again, naturally, for the increasingly large entrepreneurial visit group I initiated.
This is a big thing he needs to do with his influence, and there are also many considerations in this matter, which cannot be missed. The relevant preparations and coordination work are not easy.
"It's just a few younger brothers and sisters who study abroad, which is a bit troublesome,"
Feng Yiping's three cousins, plus Huang Qinping, have no possibility of applying to prestigious American schools with their current grades, but several companies are now paying great attention to this matter.
Because of Feng Yiping, they are not considered as non-famous schools now.
This is a bit like running four guys with average grades into schools like Tsinghua and Peking University, which is extremely difficult.
Although Feng Yiping has a good relationship with many American universities, especially well-known universities, through the Hong Kong-based scholarship foundation, it is not realistic to allow them to accept four unqualified students.
Feng Yiping didn't want to donate a large sum of money to a prestigious university in the United States just because of theirs.
However, this is indeed my own responsibility.
"Or let them apply by themselves, let them understand the difficulty of this matter, or let them go to the United States to attend non-famous universities, if they are not satisfied, and after they are familiar with and consolidated in the United States for a period of time, they can apply for Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and these are the ones,"
"Yes, they don't actually need a prominent diploma now," said Huang Jingping.
In fact, the issue Feng Yiping wants to talk to Huang Jingping the most now is what Jin Ling said. Why do you dodge a little when you see Jin Ling this time?
But he felt a little guilty, and at this moment, it was not a good time to ask such a question, because Huang Jingping felt the change behind her again, "Well, are you okay?"
