Qiu Yongliang, a reporter from the Economic Daily, came to Uber's Modu headquarters early in the morning, which is also the headquarters of Uber China.

Recently, a venture capital firm based in Beijing suddenly announced that it was going to buy Uber China, which aroused the interest of financial journalists.

"Early. Qiu Yongliang checked in at the front desk and was taken to a small conference room. Later, I saw Liu Zhen, the head of strategy at Uber China, walking in in a dark blue shirt and trousers, in a very capable style.

Liu Zhen is a native of Beijing, lived in the United States in high school, graduated from the National People's Congress, and went to the University of California, Berkeley Law School after graduating with a bachelor's degree.

The name of this university may seem a bit pheasant, but it is the world's top public university, an Ivy League institution, and has long been ranked in the top 10 universities in the world.

After graduating, Liu worked as a lawyer in Silicon Valley for nearly a decade before joining Uber. On August 12, 2015, she made a public appearance as the strategic head of Uber China and was known as the "first sister" of Uber China.

She led the continuous development of Uber China, and Didi fought a subsidy war, compared with Didi, which is valued at more than $20 billion, Uber China, which is valued at only $8 billion under her leadership, even has a leading market share in some cities.

This is a very powerful woman, and her achievements are obvious to all.

Uber China does not have a CEO due to infighting, and the regional managers report to its founder, Travis Kalanick. But most often the media sees Liu Zhen as the face of Uber China.

And because she is the niece of Mr. Liu of Lenovo, the battle between Uber China and Didi is nicknamed the "Sister Flower War" by good deeds. Because Liu Qing, the president of Didi and in charge of daily affairs, is the daughter of President Liu.

Qiu Yongliang got up and greeted, "Mr. Liu, hello." ”

"Hello. You may be seated, you may be seated. Liu Zhen sat down with a smile and said neatly, "Let's start." ”

Qiu Yongliang opened the recorder and notebook, and said, "Very Mr. Liu, you are in a busy schedule to accept my interview." After asking a few questions in a row, he said: "Mr. Liu, last week, the venture capital Phoenix Fund in Zhongjing announced that it would acquire Uber China, what do you think of this statement?"

Liu Zhen smiled disdainfully, but restrained her emotions and said: "Mr. Kalanick, the founder of Uber, came to China not long ago, and all our executives had a meeting in Hangzhou. At the meeting, we discussed how to solve the current problems of Uber China. Uber China will never sell it. We will continue to fight, continue to provide users with high-quality services, and continue to realize our dreams. ”

Qiu Yongliang closed the notebook, shook hands with Liu Zhen, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for accepting my interview." ”

In the evening of the same day, the official account of the Economic Daily, Meager and Toutiao all released relevant interview news.

...

Professor Zhao stayed in the city's No. 3 Hospital for 16 days after heart surgery, Jing Gao and An Zhiwen made an appointment to pick him up and go home, and then went to Huangshan with Weiwei for a trip. The relationship is still a bit cold, and the rift has not been repaired.

On Monday afternoon, An Zhiwen came over to report to Jing Gao. Zhaoshi Group's acquisition in France has been going very well in the past two weeks. Everything was difficult at the beginning, and one by one the small brands began to sell, and the subsequent negotiations were very smooth.

Tell me about feelings, brand history, customer positioning? Isn't the euro fragrant?

By the way, Idaka asked Harvest to pay attention to the French wineries in the Bordeaux region. If you can buy it, you can buy a batch of his wineries.

Shu Xiaoya, the host of Beijing TV, invited An Zhiwen to record a program in the morning to discuss clothing brands. The entry point is very sensational: why can't there be a top luxury brand in China?

An Zhiwen went to Jing Gao to report to work in the afternoon. Itaka asked Joe to give him Harper's Bazaar Su's busy business card, and they went back to contact each other themselves. For fashion brands to develop, the fashion industry at home and abroad must take into account.

In the evening, at the request of Professor Zhao, An Zhiwen invited Jing Gao to Professor Zhao's house for dinner.

Aunt Chunlan, the nanny, cut off the home-cooked dishes one by one, as well as the pork ribs and lotus seed soup that had been stewed all afternoon, and said hopefully: "Mr. Jing, you can taste it." ”

Jing Gao picked up the white porcelain bowl and took a sip, and praised: "Aunt Chunlan, you cook this soup well." ”

Aunt Chunlan went to the kitchen to eat with a smile on her face.

Professor Zhao raised it for half a month, but his complexion was still not good, and he hummed and chirped, and said: "Chinese football is rotten, why do you like football? There are rich. ”

Jing Gao was also not polite, arguing with Professor Zhao, eating fish and meat, "Professor Zhao, what you said is not right." Evergrande Group is currently developing much better because of football. It is immediately the No. 1 real estate developer in the country. What's wrong with my love for football? Also, when the Olympics start in August, I'm going to charter a plane to Brazil to watch the games. ”

Professor Zhao was angry. He can't say that he doesn't watch the Olympic Games, right? In peacetime, the Olympic Games are the embodiment of the country's national strength. It is a matter of national honor.

There are always some people on the Internet who say that the national system is not good. It doesn't matter what Olympic gold medal is, what American athletes compete in and then get gold medals. Today's netizens are not so easy to deceive!

When the Olympic gold medal was 0 and was ridiculed as the "sick man of East Asia", did you not study, and you forgot the pain after the scars?

Everyone knows the importance of national fitness. This is the right word to put anywhere. At that time, you didn't know about the qigong craze in the whole country, right? There was also the era of square dancing for the whole people, but you haven't experienced it? Is this contradictory to the national system winning gold medals?

Cang Liao knows etiquette, and knows honor and disgrace when he has enough food and clothing. Lao Tzu coded words every day, just mixed up the rent and food money, and he couldn't even afford the big sword. You tell me about national fitness?

Professor Zhao changed the topic again. Jing Gao and he quarreled while eating and drinking. On the contrary, the rift in the relationship has been healed by half.

At the end, Professor Zhao sighed and said, "Alas, people have to serve old when they are old." Xiaojing, help me do something and arrange a job for Liao Rong. I know that you have a lot of companies in your hands, after all, she is the Zhao Group that has managed more than a billion assets, and it is a pity that her talent is wasted. ”

Jing Gao was a little surprised, but he didn't shirk and nodded directly, "No problem." ”

An Zhiwen frowned secretly.

Professor Zhao took a sip of wine and said, "Xiao Liao is sorry for me, I have divorced her." Men can't bear this humiliation. I'll never see her again.

She apologized to me on the phone. In these years, how can a husband and wife be ruthless? What she did made me lose face. I'm not going to talk to my old friends. You know what's going on, and I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me. ”

Jing Gao said cheerfully: "Professor Zhao, I have a media company under my name, and its business involves: movies, TV series, artist management, etc. Just starting out, it will get bigger and bigger in the future. I arranged for Liao Rong to go in as the vice president. ”

Professor Zhao nodded.

...

...

After drinking a meal, Jing Gao had just returned to his room in 2001, when Xia Rongxi called in.

After Xia Rongxi sold the shares of Henghu Pharmaceutical to the Phoenix Fund to which Jinggao belonged, he took the funds to the magic capital to develop, specializing in finance and investment business.

"Mr. Jing, I haven't contacted you for a long time, do you really want to buy Uber China? Don't you know yet? Uber China's shareholders are negotiating a merger with Didi's shareholders, and they are all about to be negotiated. ”

"What?" Jing Gao was taken aback, this afternoon's Economic Daily interviewed Liu Zhen in the news, of course he had seen it. Didn't you say it would never be sold?
