Chapter 316: I've got the final say

For pragmatic Chinese, price is the most powerful means of competition in the market. Don't you see, supermarkets are overcrowded every time they are on sale, so the current situation is very good for Uber.

Conversely, the situation is like an avalanche for Didi. Indeed, there is a group of people who have a premonition of impending catastrophe.

The middle lobbyist Xie Shihuang found on the 13th was Tan Qin, a very well-known bigwig in the financial circle of Modu. But Jing Gao categorically refused to meet and negotiate with Didi and Ali's people. I just launched a counteroffensive, and you asked for a truce?

When I'm an idiot?

Applying the Eagle Sauce in Syria to me? Why is it so beautiful?

After Xie Shihuang reported to Mr. Ma and Cai Congxin by phone in the afternoon, Mr. Ma personally arranged it. He made a phone call, "Lao Guo, please do me a favor." ”

Guo Guangchang, the president of Fosun, was still abroad, and when he received a call from Mr. Ma, he immediately flew back and called Jing Gao at the same time.

...

...

In mid-November, Shencheng is still equivalent to early autumn in the northland, with white clouds and blue skies, and the temperature is suitable. Pedestrians in the streets are dressed in autumn clothes and running for life.

After Ren Jiahui sent her daughter Rongrong to kindergarten, she drove around the city where she had lived for eight years in a blue BMW.

When she was in junior high school, she did not do well in school, and was sent to Singapore by her second brother to go to high school, where she completed college. After returning to China, she had adapted to the climate in the south, so she did not return to her hometown in the northeast, but worked here and got married.

At the time of the divorce, her ex-husband Wei Liqun divided half of her family property and paid for her daughter's child support. Over the years, she has had the funds for her second brother to start a business, plus the real estate and shops she bought herself, so she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing.

Ren Jiahui held the steering wheel, and her thoughts were floating in her head. At this time, a two-story bus with a new advertisement passed. She glanced at it and was stunned.

The body advertisement is Uber's, and the printed advertising slogan is: Free month for all, you take a taxi and I pay.

Ren Jiahui parked the car on the side of the road, called her friend Anyi, and after the phone was connected, she hurriedly asked worriedly: "Xiaoyi, is there something wrong with Uber?

An Yi is busy in the office of Uber in Beijing. He was recently promoted again.

Zhang Yanqi, general manager of the western region of Uber's headquarters, was transferred to the headquarters to take charge of security affairs, which is an important task. and then transferred Kang Xi, the general manager of the North District, to the West District to be responsible for balancing the internal factional issues. And Mr. Kang had a deep conversation with him before leaving, and he decided to stay in the capital and did not follow him to Rongcheng.

Before leaving, Mr. Kang promoted him to a position, the post level is U4, which belongs to the team leader level, and the salary and bonus add up, with an annual salary of about three or four hundred thousand.

"Sister Jiahui, there's a ghost problem. Things are going well for Uber. Mr. Jing has already killed crazy, and he is directly free for a month. Didi is waiting to be killed by us. Our goal now is to reduce the number of Didi orders in the capital to less than 100 orders a day. ”

Ren Jiahui's heart relaxed, it turned out to be fine. Hang up the phone and call up Jing Gao's mobile phone number, but my fingers follow the buttons of the Apple mobile phone, and I can't click it down.

She knew very well that her second brother and nephew Ren Zhi were involved. She has always been surnamed "Ren". And she knows the merits of this matter very well, and Idaka is not wrong.

I don't know how this matter will end in the end.

Ren Jiahui looked at the blue sky with mixed feelings.

...

...

When Ren Jiahui was "worried", Jing Gaozheng took Cao Danqing, Jiang Zi, Dong Youwei and others to Shencheng Airport.

Wei Chenjun and Wu Jingshu both went to Hong Kong Island. They have their jobs, their things to do. Li Yifeng is also negotiating with Tencent on behalf of Phoenix Fund. It's just that since Uber launched Phoenix Pay on the 12th, Tencent's attitude has been very friendly.

Idaka's attitude towards the "enemy" was very resolute and did not hesitate. It's not his business alone. The will of the entire Phoenix Department is here. But Guo Guangchang's words still moved him,"

Mr. Jing, I am in the middle to say peace, and you can talk about the result yourself. Any business can be discussed. If you can get them to surrender voluntarily, there is no need to engage in a 'pursuit war'. ”

The venue of this negotiation is still the place where Jing Gao and Mr. Guo met on November 1: Tomson Golf's clubhouse.

The afternoon sun shines in front of the Tomson Golf Club. The golf course in the distance is open. Rich people with caddies are swinging or talking about business. The villas on the southeast side are nestled among the trees.

Mr. Guo of Fosun and Zhou Mingyang, chairman of Mingyuan Group, waited at the door of the club in advance. Full of face. This scene is estimated to spread all over Sheng Beach tonight. Who are the two influential tycoons greeting?

Later, I saw Idaka's motorcade slowly coming. Assistant Dong Youwei got out of the car first and helped Jing Gao open the door.

Seeing these two waiting at the door, Jing Gao quickly took two steps forward, and everyone carried the sedan chair. He shook hands with the two and said humbly: "Don't dare to work, the two are waiting for me at the door." ”

Guo Guangchang was 50 years old at the time, with very little hair, almost semi-bald. Thin, with a pair of glasses, he said with a smile: "As the host, I should always come down to meet the well." The afterlife is terrifying!"

Zhou Mingyang, the chairman of Mingyuan Group, was 44 years old at the time, tall, handsome, sharp, and smiled in agreement. Half-jokingly and half-seriously, he said: "Mr. Jing, I have a personal matter to ask you, and I dare not come." ”

At that time, Dong Ge said in an interview: It took me 30 years to sit with the bigwigs, drink coffee and talk about cooperation.

At this time, in the eyes of Guo Guangchang and Zhou Mingyang, Jing Gao had the qualifications to be on an equal footing with them. And it took two weeks. In that meeting on the 1st, both of them were not optimistic about Idaka.

Itaka laughed too, but didn't promise anything.

The three of them exchanged a few words at the door. Guo Guangchang made a gesture and invited: "Mr. Jing, please." ”

The manager and waiter of the club led the way in front, and Cao Danqing, Jiang Zi, and Dong Youwei followed. The group walked to the No. 1 Ballroom on the third floor. Several people waiting in the luxurious living room stood up one after another.

"Mr. Well. Xie Shihuang smiled politely and awkwardly. Cheng Wei, Liu Qing, and Ren Zhi are all there. The three of them were not qualified to greet Idaka on such an occasion and in such an atmosphere.

Jing Gao nodded lightly, his expression calm.

Guo Guangchang smiled and instructed the manager of the club, "Old Niu, you can bring someone some drinks and tea." We talk about things. ”

The No. 1 Ballroom is divided into a dining room, a living room, a lounge, a view, a terrace and other areas. Beautifully furnished. Guo Guangchang took everyone to the viewing area in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window to sit down, greeted the atmosphere with a few words, and said: "

Everyone knows that I love Tai Chi. Tai Chi is about the transformation and balance of yin and yang. There is a concept in Chinese culture called harmony. Taoism and Confucianism both speak. And being a person and doing things, and chess are often the most difficult. I hope that you will value peace today.

Next, you talk. I sat next to Lao Zhou. ”

...

...

Guo Guangchang and Zhou Mingyang sat in the rest area not far away. The two whispered. At the coffee table in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Jing Gao took a sip of warm tea for a long time, and only Cao Danqing was by his side at the moment. She is the Vice President of Phoenix Fund.

Xie Shihuang saw Lu Jing's posture, and sighed in his heart, the situation was stronger than people, so he had to bow his head. took the initiative to speak: "Mr. Jing, I don't know what conditions you are willing to buy Didi? ”

At the meeting at the Xianghe Golf Club on October 8, Xie Shihuang's performance was actually very normal. There is no villain's arrogance, ruthless words, hatred and so on in online articles. I even had a good chat with Jing Gao at one point.

But there's something inside that can't be hidden.

At that time, when Jing Gao arrived at the Xianghe Golf Club, he was leisurely drinking morning tea in the "Jiangnan Pavilion" on the third floor of the clubhouse. Compare that to the treatment that Idaka received today!

Moreover, Xie Shihuang proposed to retain Cheng Wei and Liu Qing's teams in the new Uber and asked to occupy two seats on the board of directors. It's a setting with a bad intention. After Jing Gao refused, he clearly told Jing Gao that Mr. Ma cared about Didi.

How much do you mean?

To put it bluntly, in October, Jing Gao and Phoenix Fund were a fart in front of Ali's core figures!

Okay, so what now?

Jing Gao glanced at Xie Shihuang, who was "neither humble nor arrogant", and just asked lightly: "Mr. Xie, Ali's suppression of my company has not been removed so far, and you are now telling me lightly that Ali is willing to quit Didi." Do you think it's appropriate?"

Xie Shihuang immediately asked a little embarrassed. Mr. Ma's idea is just to talk about Didi's business. For the rest, both sides are like this, and it will be difficult to be embarrassed in the future. This leads to a question: why should Jing Gao allow Ali to withdraw from Didi with dignity?

Liu Qing's personality is still very strong, according to the pre-discussion, she came to sing with a white face and said loudly: "Mr. Jing, Didi is not without the power to fight back." Some of Uber's shareholders have also sold their shares to us. We own about 8% of the shares. ”

Jing Gao's antipathy to Liu Qing is not strong, after all, it has not appeared yet: in the face of human life, the whole network swipes the screen "Liu Qing come on". It's just a person at the executive level. In this confrontation, the pressure he faced basically came from Ali and Galaxy.

Jing Gao remained unmoved, and said: "Your Didi management team plus Ali has less than 20% of the shares in Didi. Phoenix owns nearly 80 percent of Uber's shares. You're talking to me about this, scaring me?"

Cao Danqing has been sitting next to Jing Gao, elegant and delicate, and then said sharply: "The willow who has been heard for a long time is always a top student of Harvard, and it is really better to see it than to hear it." You're at this level?"

Liu Qing immediately clenched his right hand tightly to the mocking fist.

Because people with normal IQs understand two things: First, it's Uber that has the upper hand right now. Who are you scaring about? Second, Uber's controlling stake is verifiable. Nearly 80% of the equity of the Phoenix Fund, you take 8% of the equity to talk about things.

Sick!

Her bluff in the "negotiations" was exposed.

Xie Shihuang sighed and continued to probe: "Mr. Jing, we still hope to reach an agreement on stop loss. Xiao Cheng and Xiao Yanagi quit with the core team, which is fine. In this way, the blockade of Xia Shang Cultural Tourism, we Ali can be removed as sincerity. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Ren Zhi.

Ren Zhi sat on the sofa, medium in stature, looking white and clean. He was wearing a light-colored sweater, his coat was taken off and put aside, and he carried the young Sven and Lingxiu. frowned and said: "

We, the Galaxy Group, will also lift the blockade of Phoenix Films. Mr. Jing, I remind you, I hope you don't bring personal grievances into business. "It's low. Business is business.

Idaka suddenly wanted to laugh. I want to laugh!

The people in front of me really don't know what to say. Since Oct. 17, he hasn't had a good night's sleep. Like a fish in the throat, like facing the abyss, like walking on thin ice. Use all your strength to resist the pressure of Ali and Galaxy.

As a result, these people are here to engage in business negotiations with him one by one. There are those who test the bottom line, there are those who bluff, and there are those who think very highly of themselves.

How many fucking handfuls do you count? What have I suffered and sins in the past month, and I should have eaten them for nothing?

Jungle in the grass.

Jing Gao didn't bother to pay attention to Ren Zhi, a little kid, and didn't want to care about his thoughts, so he said to Xie Shihuang: "Xie Shihuang, let me ask you something, you told me that Ma Yun was very concerned about Didi that day, what did he say?"

Call it by its name!

Xie Shihuang's eyelids jumped, and he forcibly held back his anger and said: "Online car-hailing belongs to the field of mobile Internet. Mr. Ma is very concerned about this..."

Jing Gao raised his right palm very strongly, interrupting his words, "Xie Shihuang, you bring a message to Ma Yun, and your Cai Congxin Cai." When the war is fought, it's up to you to decide. However, when it ends, I have the final say!"

After speaking, he stood up and stretched out his finger to point at Ren Zhi opposite. He didn't bother to talk nonsense with this little calf. But the subtext is clear!

Just like that day at the door of Ren's villa in Xiangshan, Ren Zhi warned him lightly, and then didn't bother to pay attention to him, and went back to the house by himself after speaking.

Jing Gao confronted each other and walked out of the living room with Cao Danqing. Guo Guangchang didn't move, he and Zhou Mingyang sat not far away, and heard the conversation. Zhou Mingyang got up and went to chase Jing Gao, he still had something to say to Jing Gao.

Outside the small building of the clubhouse, a cold north wind howled by, breaking the dead branches of an old tree.
