Eleven long ended in the reluctance of the general public. On Saturday morning, the white-collar workers in the capital resumed their lives in 996.

In Didi's headquarters building, people are still coming and going. But Zhang Xiaofeng, who came to interview, felt a little different.

What's the difference? In the past, Didi's employees were all "industry bosses", but this time he felt a sense of low-key. Of course, he also knows the reason. Uber (China) is crazy to continue to engage in subsidy wars during the National Day holiday. Market share continues to soar. And Didi's funds are estimated to be about to burn out.

Zhang Xiaofeng registered at the front desk, went upstairs to sit for a while, and soon Cheng Wei's secretary came out to inform, "Editor-in-chief Zhang, I'm sorry." We have a very important event today, please understand. You can do other material collection in the company first. ”

Zhang Xiaofeng is writing a book about shared mobility, nominally co-authored by Cheng Wei and Liu Qing.

Zhang Xiaofeng smiled and said, "It's okay." Then there's Secretary Lautin. Later, I was assigned to interview Didi's executives.

...

...

At this time, Cheng Wei's office. Cheng Wei and Liu Qing were sitting together drinking tea. At about nine o'clock in the morning, the two of them sat face to face on the sofa next to the coffee table and drank kung fu tea, discussing Didi's future trend and strategy.

This National Day holiday, the two of them took action to "save" Didi. Cheng Wei went to Hangzhou to see Mr. Ma, and Liu Qing went home to see Mr. Liu. It was their last ditch effort. Time is running out for Didi!

Jing Gao maintained Didi's valuation of $33.5 billion within a month of the "official announcement" in the magic capital at the end of September.

So, Didi is under tremendous pressure. This is all imposed on Didi by the capital side. Hopefully, Didi will surrender to Uber within a month. At present, all of Didi's businesses are shrinking. Tighten your belt to survive the winter.

Cheng Wei was white and chubby, wearing glasses, sitting on the spacious sofa, and said bluntly: "Liu Qing, do you think we can negotiate with Jing Gao today?"

During the eleventh day, he and his old friend Wang Gang went to Hangzhou to meet Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma's real name is: Ma Jack Daddy Ali Yun. Mr. Ma promised to help them get the best conditions.

At present, Xie Shihuang, one of Ali's eighteen Arhats, has arrived in the capital. And I have been invited by a friend to make an appointment with Jing Gao, the actual controller of the Phoenix Fund, to have dinner together at Xianghe Golf Club at noon today.

Xie Shihuang is the only person within the Alibaba Group who holds an Alibaba business license. Ali is the legal representative of many companies with his name filled. He is deeply trusted by Ma Yun. At present, companies such as Hangzhou Junhan and other companies are held by him and Ma Yun. Use this as a platform to control the various companies of the Alibaba Group.

It's complicated to talk about. With less than 9 percent of the shares, how did Ma Yun control the huge Alibaba Group and its related companies? The mystery lies in the shareholding of this series of companies such as Junhan and Junao.

Moreover, Xie Shihuang also uses these companies as a platform to be responsible for foreign investment. Therefore, Xie Shihuang, as Ma Yun's representative, is completely qualified to negotiate with the outside world.

As mentioned earlier, Ali has an investment department called Ali Capital. The boss is Joe Tsai.

Ma Yun also has an investment platform: Yunfeng Fund. The general manager's name is Li Ying. Yunfeng Fund is also well-known in the domestic investment community. It mainly invests in the Internet, consumer goods and new energy.

The basic information was communicated by Cheng Wei and Liu Qing on the phone. Liu Qing was wearing autumn clothes, sitting on the sofa, looking a little tired, and said: "I think we should plan for the worst! What if Jing Gao doesn't give Ali face? Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers!"

She went home this holiday to talk to her father. Father promised that when the time came, Mr. Yang of Lenovo would personally come forward to say hello to Jing Gao and have a talk. In business, there is no need to fight to the death, there is always room for talk.

Actually, it's useless. To put it mildly, the person who is in charge of today's Chinese business community is no longer her father. The Lenovo system is still a behemoth, but it is really going downhill. If Jing Gao doesn't even sell Mr. Ma's face, then don't expect him to sell Mr. Yang's face. Mr. Yang's weight is really not as good as Mr. Ma.

Cheng Wei smiled: "Liu Qing, you are still too pessimistic. My view is still optimistic. Mr. Ma personally talked with me and Lao Wang for half an hour. The statement is also very clear. I believe that Mr. Xie should make arrangements. Actually, we don't ask for much. ”

Liu Qing was a little excited, "Hmm." ”

What's the best situation for Didi right now? It's still being acquired and controlled by Uber, but their senior management team continues to run Didi's brand in big cities.

Take a step back, and Didi's brand will disappear. All personnel are retained and operated as a division within Uber. That's what Didi did when it was annexed.

Worst results, they take the stock and leave. The drops disappear. Everyone ended up being caught up in sync with Uber's culture.

While the two were chatting, Xie Shihuang's call came in, "Xiao Cheng, come here." ”

"Okay, Mr. Xie. ”

Cheng Wei and Liu Qing tidied up a little and immediately set off by car.

...

...

After Jing Gao returned to the capital, he naturally lived in the courtyard with Weiwei. Weiwei is now in the first semester of her senior year, and she won't care about renting a house outside the school at all.

Weiwei's high-speed train is to the capital in the evening. He came out of Su Mei, took a shower, and went to pick up Vivi back.

He received a call from Shen Jinyuan in the evening, saying that Ali's Xie Shihuang had come to Beijing on behalf of Mr. Ma and wanted to meet with him to talk about the merger of Uber and Didi.

"Old Shen, you can do it. Broad travel. Itaka joked with a smile.

The split and merger of the Zhao Group has been largely completed. The procedures for the equity replacement of Xia Shang Textile and Phoenix Film and Television have been completed. After the business of the Zhao Group is divested, it will be renamed Xia Shang Cultural Tourism Company. It is helmed by Shen Jinyuan.

Shen Jinyuan smiled and said, "This is the tiger power of Mr. Borrowing Well." Otherwise, who of these gangsters knows me Lao Shen. ”

Jing Gao smiled: "Old Shen, you are humble." What do you think about this?"

Shen Jinyuan touched his half-bald head, "Mr. Jing, you are taking the school for me." Then I'll be blunt. Mr. Jing, no matter how you plan to merge Didi. It is always good for you to meet Xie Shihuang, change your business card, and leave a way to directly contact Ali in the future. To do business in China, you have to meet with Erma after all. ”

Jing Gao pondered for a moment, Alipay and WeChat Pay are indeed a commercial barrier!

...

...

In the early morning of the next day, Jing Gao drove his girlfriend, who was still a little lazy and fragrant, to the gate of Jiaxin High School.

"Meng Weiwei, I'm really going to be late. Jing Gao stopped the Audi A8, gently helped Weiwei untie the seat belt, and then leaned over to kiss her.

Li Mengwei's charming Bai Jinggao glanced at Jing Gao, looked up at Jing Gao, bright and unprovoked, and said clearly: "That's all your fault." ”

Itaka smiled. Little Bie is newlywed. He tossed Vivi a little hard yesterday.

The two were tired of being in the car for a while, and Jing Gao got out of the car to see Li Mengwei walk into the campus. I couldn't help but think of Wei Wei's charming attitude when she was facing the rising sun this morning. A smile crossed his lips.

It has been said that home is a man's harbor. This sentence is only half true. Women are the harbor of men!

Jing Gao drove to Xianghe Golf Club. It was about nine o'clock in the morning. Du Zhijie, the manager of Xianghe Golf Club, greeted him, bowed slightly and shook hands with Jing Gao, and said politely: "Mr. Jing, hello, welcome." ”

"Access control", since Xie Shihuang set the meeting place here, of course it was all arranged.

And the actual controller of the Phoenix Fund, of course, deserves Du Zhijie to greet this treatment in person.

Jing Gao smiled and shook hands with Du Zhijie.

"Mr. Jing, please!"

Jing Gao nodded, looking at his surroundings. In the distance, the fragrant hills are in the late autumn sun in the morning, and the maple leaves are like fire.

Step into the clubhouse of the Fragrant River Golf Club. This is Idaka's second visit here. The first time I came here to meet Fan Yang and Huang Mingyuan. At that time, Fan Yang wanted to join forces with him to deal with Zhao Canglong, but he refused.

Xie Shihuang is in the "Jiangnan Pavilion" on the third floor of the clubhouse. When Idaka arrived, he was leisurely drinking morning tea.
