The scenes on the afternoon of the 14th, after nightfall, began to spread gradually. In the magic capital, in the capital...

For many people who participated in the Phoenix, Alibaba, and Galaxy contest, the moment Uber announced that it was free, the word "well high" was already like a thick cloud hanging over their heads.

And at this moment, after hearing Jing Gao clearly ask Xie Shihuang to bring a message to Mr. Ma, the head of Ali: "When the war will be fought, you have the final say." However, when it will end, I have the final say!" After that, it was like a slap on the wrist of Jing Gao, the clouds fell, and the huge killing machine was pressed down towards the people!

It's not an adjective, it's a real fact, a crisis!

How many people have invested in Didi in the process of Didi's financing? Not only money, but also the resources mobilized. All of this will come to naught in the face of Idaka's words! How much valuation will Didi have left when he ends the war? Does no one be responsible for these losses?

A must.

This responsibility may be a loss of reputation, a resignation, a loss, a complaint or even a disappointment from a partner. The years will not be quiet again.

People are killed, and the world is turned upside down!

As Jing Gao said to Cao Danqing in the car after leaving Tomson Golf: This is just the beginning. Say one month free, then one month free!

And the fate of Didi, the fate of many people has already been doomed, like a surging river going east, and there is no turning back.

The World Internet Conference held in Wuzhen in November 2016 is the third year. Jing Gao, Cao Danqing, Qiao Shuang, Liu Zhen and their entourage arrived in Wuzhen, which is full of Jiangnan water town style, in the afternoon, and after signing in, they stayed in the hotel arranged by the organizing committee.

The specifications of the Internet Conference are very high. In 15 years, both the Great Leader and the then Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev were present. The official sent an invitation, and of course Jing Gao wanted to give face to cheer.

It's just that he occupies the quota of the Phoenix Fund. The Phoenix Fund is classified as a "venture capital" fund.

Uber is represented by Chairman Qiao Shuang, and newly promoted President Liu Zhen. They were invited as representatives of "ride-hailing" companies.

Liu Zhen was promoted to the position of president of Uber China, on the one hand, because Jing Gao was rewarded. The recent security accident was on the bright side, and she was running and dealing with it. On the one hand, it is to make up for the lack of Qiao Shuang's ability.

The luggage was put aside at the Wuzhen Golden Waterfront Hotel, and the assistants were going to live in the city at night. There are more than 1,000 guests and seven or eight hundred reporters. Qiao Shuang followed Jing Gao for the longest time, and knew his mind very well, and invited: "Mr. Jing, are you tired, I'll take you to see a place?"

"Okay. ”

Four people drove out. The assistants drove behind. Go out of Wuzhen Scenic Area first, and then turn onto Wuzhen Avenue. More than ten kilometers away, just step on the accelerator and get there. Later, I came to a quiet courtyard villa area in the downtown area of Tongxiang. Entering the villa area is the style of the Jiangnan water town.

Small lakes, rockeries, strange stones, pavilions, forests. In early winter, it is staggered.

Three cars slowly parked along the wide road at the entrance of a courtyard house with white walls and black tiles. Qiao Shuang took the key to open the door and took Jing Gao, Cao Danqing, and Liu Zhen in. The assistants all stayed outside and waited.

Walking in the courtyard, Qiao Shuang introduced: "I bought three villas here. Now all the hotels in Wuzhen are full. Journalists are all over the streets. It's hard to find a quiet place to talk and drink tea. This building is the head of the well. Mr. Cao and Mr. Liu's villas are next to them. ”

Liu Zhen looked at this ancient three-entry courtyard villa, with high eaves and high pecks, and the corridor columns looped, and sighed in his heart, no wonder Mr. Qiao won the trust of Mr. Jing, and this thing was done beautifully.

Jing Gao is also very satisfied, in fact, if you want to talk about the scenery alone, it is better to go to Wuzhen Scenic Area. He will definitely be able to live in the conference later. However, it was a public place, and it was probably inconvenient to do something else at night. It's not as free as here.

"Pretty good. Little Joe, you take them to have a look, and then come to my side for tea. We will go back to the hotel in the scenic area in the evening to rest. You can buy a set yourself. ”

Qiao Shuang said neatly: "Okay, Mr. Jing." ”

...

The main venue of the Internet Conference is the "Wuzhen Internet International Convention and Exhibition Center" in the Wuzhen Scenic Area.

On the morning of the 16th, the big leader delivered a video speech.

Subsequently, guests from various countries spoke, and the first day of the conference was very old. For those who are a little familiar with the Internet conference, they know that there is a reserved project next: NetEase Ding Sanshi's dinner.

Since 2014, he has invited Chinese Internet bigwigs to have a dinner at the "Jinyi Inn" in Building 5152 of Wuzhen B&B in the Wuzhen Scenic Area on the first night of the conference. It is said to gather half of the "Internet".

On the evening of November 16, 2016, the dinner was held as scheduled. Compared to the previous two gatherings, from 8 people in the first meeting and 11 people in the second time, there were 17 people in this meeting. However, none of the members of the three Internet giants BAT were present.

Brother Xiao Ma and Ding Sanshi are old friends, and they have known each other since the 90s of the last century, when the Chinese Internet was in the ascendant. Including Lei Jun, he was also the first generation of netizens at that time. Brother Pony had something to do at night and couldn't come to attend.

Baidu's Li Yanhong also has something to do, and he sent Baidu President Zhang Yaqin. As for the jack, the horse didn't come. There is also an interesting rumor in the market.

Ali stands at the top of the Internet and can be regarded as a master of the first gear in the rivers and lakes! Well, Ali's market value and Tencent alternately rank first. And Ma Yun has always spoken with a high profile. Either he looks down on the party of these bigwigs, or he is excluded by the bigwigs and doesn't take him to play.

But the most reliable speculation is that although Ding Sanshi and Ma Yun both belong to Zhejiang businessmen, they have been friends for more than ten years. He was not invited.

At that time, after the bursting of the dot-com bubble at the beginning of the 21st century, it slowly recovered. Ding Sanshi, who was not delisted, got the investment of Duan Yongping, the boss of BBK, and soared through the Internet winter to become the richest man in China. At that time, Ma Yun was still running around looking for investment.

As a Zhejiang businessman, Ding Sanshi is 7 years younger than Ma Yun, but he made his fortune earlier. Some troubles in the early days of Taobao, Ding Sanshi came forward to help Ma Yun settle it. The beginning of the bitter relationship between the two was in 2005, when eBay banned Taobao in the advertising business. Ma Yun called around and begged Ding San for a stone. Ding Sanshi agreed at first, but repented in the face of eBay's double price.

From the perspective of 2016, Ding Sanshi's decision is simply incredible. Just do this kind of thing for the sake of advertising money? Don't even want to have a friendship with a horse? But pay attention to the status at the time. The big guy doesn't care about the feelings of the younger brother.

And Ding Sanshi once said publicly in a media interview: Ma Yun is nothing remarkable. It's kind of a little bit disdainful.

Outside the window, the media waits. The bigwigs in the store sat drinking and chatting. The dishes made from the pork carefully selected by NetEase have been well received. The Zhejiang cuisine in this small shop is indeed authentic.

In the evening, there was an official reception banquet, and at about half past eight, these bigwigs came out, and then gathered here one after another.

Ding Sanshi sat on the main seat, drinking rice wine, listening to a group of people chatting about mobile phones, and sighed: "Can you stop talking about mobile phones?"

Today, Huawei's Yu Chengdong and Xiaomi's Lei Jun are all there. plus Zhou Hongyi, chairman and CEO of Qihoo 360, and Zhao Ming, president of Honor Mobile.

Note that Honor and Huawei belong to the same Huawei, but they are two mobile phone brands.

Zhou Hong took a little wine, sat in the chair, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about if you don't talk about mobile phones?

As soon as he said this, everyone who knew the inside story laughed in agreement. In other words, the biggest news in the Internet circle is that Uber is free! The valuation is rubbing down, one price a day

And the fact that Coolpad Mobile Phone, a subsidiary of Phoenix Fund, set up a chip design company in the magic capital has long been spread in the mobile phone circle.

Rebus diss Huawei in the media every day, and he is a "friend businessman" when he opens his mouth and closes his mouth. But his own personality is still very mild. Wen Yan just smiled and didn't speak. The first to open the gap in the mobile phone industry by price is Xiaomi!

Price war is a "skill" that mobile phone companies must know. Because, the development of the mobile phone industry has now become a blue ocean, and the competition is very cruel.

And the last company that sells regardless of cost is called "LETV". LeEco phones are now half-dead. The more you sell, the more you lose.

Yu Chengdong is nicknamed "Yu Dazui", but that refers to bragging about Huawei mobile phones. He didn't evaluate Jing Gao and Phoenix Fund. Who is still a fool? It is clear that Coolpad mobile phones belong to the "rest" category, and as one of the top three mobile phone manufacturers in the world, what does he evaluate Coolpad for?

That is, 360, a small mobile phone manufacturer that sells 10 million units a year, has a sense of crisis.

In addition, the person who dared to call Ali like that brought a message to Ma Yun was estimated to have a very hot temper?

For example, Yang Zhiyuan, the founder of Yahoo, and Zhu Min, the former deputy managing director of the International Monetary Fund, who did not know the specific details, were asking the people around them for details.

Ding Sanshi smiled slightly, scolded Ma Yun This is a program he likes to see, and asked Shen Nanpeng, the global managing partner of Sequoia Capital: "Mr. Shen, I heard that you have met Jing Gao a few times, tell us about it?"

Shen Nanpeng smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said, "Don't." Other. I met Mr. Jing in the venue today, and I didn't even dare to say hello to him. He's too imposing right now. ”

That's a bit of an exaggeration. Their group of venture capitalists basically listened to Cai Congxin's words, followed Ali, and bet on Didi. That's the way it is now. What they are looking forward to now in their hearts is: Mr. Ma will be angry and will be on the line with Jing Gao.

Everyone was waiting for Ali to react.

Zhang Chaoyang, chairman of the board of directors and CEO of Sohu, interjected a sentence and said with a smile: "Mr. Cao, then you have to be careful." He knew that Meager did not cooperate with the Phoenix Fund to control the comments at all, but firmly stood on Ali's side.

Cao Guowei, chairman and CEO of Sina, took a slow sip of wine and said: "I still believe that Ali can turn the situation around. Ali won't be able to get even a month's worth of money. After all, it is not possible to do business with anger like Phoenix Fund. ”

Yang Yuanqing, president and CEO of Lenovo Group, said: "The problem with the Phoenix Fund is that the person in charge is too young. Ali has experienced battles with eBay, Amazon, and so on. As he spoke, he shook his head slightly.

The meaning is very obvious.

Lenovo station Didi or Uber, do you need to think about this? Mr. Liu's daughter is the president of Didi, and her career is in jeopardy.

When a group of "bigwigs" were chatting here, Ma Yun had just come down from an international-level wine bureau, and said to the assistant with a slight sense of alcohol: "Give Mr. Li a call, and we will visit Shimoi Gao together." ”
