Chapter 1188 - Cooperation Plan for 3M
Hardly without any hesitation, Gao Dewei agreed to Li Mu's cooperation plan and exclusively authorized Honeywell's online sales agency in Huaxia to Taobao.
Before coming to see Li Mu, Gao Dewei had learned about Taobao, and had a very clear understanding of Taobao's current platform volume.
And only Taobao can help enterprises, in the shortest possible time, to establish an Internet-based and can fully cover the country's sales network, more importantly, Taobao not only has a large traffic, large sales, but also its own logistics system support, Taobao logistics in, not only greatly improve Taobao's coverage capacity, but also improve the efficiency of online orders.
And Li Mu also promised Gao Dewei that he would establish an official flagship store of Honeywell Taobao on Taobao, and give Honeywell enough promotion resources.
Based on this, Honeywell also wants to give Makino Technology enough room to make profits, and the agreement reached by the two is that Li Mu's one-time purchase will be directly based on Honeywell's shipping price, with a 5% discount.
The five-fold discount of the shipping price made Li Mu feel very happy, and he almost blurted out if the order quantity doubled, but after calming down a little, Li Mu only temporarily reached a basic cooperation intention with Gao Dewei, and did not change his current order quantity from Honeywell in this interview.
After all, he has not yet interviewed the person in charge of 3M, and Li Mu still doesn't know what kind of cooperation conditions 3M can give him.
Compared with Honeywell, Li Mu hopes to get 3M's network agency in Huaxia, 3M's product line at the 2C end is much stronger than Honeywell, and getting its exclusive agency will also have many benefits for Taobao in the future.
In the afternoon, Li Mu met the head of 3M, George Buckley, in his office.
As a manufacturing company with a history of 100 years, 3M has countless proud histories, but in the face of Makino Technology, an Internet company that has been established for less than two years, the market value of 3M, which has a history of less than 100 years, is not even half of Makino Technology.
The Internet industry does contain countless possibilities, which is why George Buckley came all the way to meet Li Mu, in the stage of the booming Internet, any traditional business wants to be able to catch the ride of the Internet.
With the experience of communicating with Gao Dewei, Li Mu pushed the rhythm a lot faster when communicating with George Buckley.
As soon as they came up, after the two greeted each other first, Li Mu immediately threw out his new appeal and said to George Buckley: "Mr. George, when I meet you today, I actually have two different identities, one is the CEO of Makino Technology, and the other is the CEO of Taobao Technology, so I will first talk to you about my cooperation ideas for Taobao and 3M as the CEO of Taobao Technology." ”
George Barkley was disgraced by Li Mu's words.
The market value of 3M is less than half of Makino Technology, but Li Mu is still reminding himself that behind him is far more than Makino Technology, and Taobao, which has not been funded.
It is said that if Taobao is open to financing and Taobao logistics and Alipay are included in the territory of Taobao, the valuation may be higher than that of Muye Technology, so the total market value of the companies behind Li Mu is likely to be more than 60 billion US dollars.
George Buckley, who was shocked in his heart, did not have any dissatisfaction with Li Mu's words in his heart, but said very politely: "Mr. Li, we also hope to establish a close cooperative relationship with Taobao and Muye Technology, two outstanding enterprises, so if you have any intentions, please feel free to say." ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "First of all, I hope that 3M can authorize the exclusive agency of the network in Huaxia to Taobao." ”
"Network exclusivity?"
It's not just Goldway who doesn't quite understand it, George Barkley has also heard of this concept for the first time.
Li Muxuan explained the meaning of this concept to Gao Dewei, and Gao Dewei immediately realized and confirmed with Li Mu: "Mr. Li, if 3M gives Taobao the exclusive agency rights of the network in Huaxia, it means that during the authorization period, only Taobao is qualified to sell 3M products on the Internet, and all other platforms do not have this qualification, right?"
Li Mu nodded: "That's right, during the cooperation, we will establish a 3M self-operated flagship store on Taobao.com, and we will be responsible for all the operation work, and we promise not to transfer the source of goods to offline sales, and there will be no direct conflict with your offline agents." ”
George Buckley thought for a moment, then nodded resolutely and said, "Okay, Mr. Li, I accept your cooperation plan, and I will ask you to appoint an interface later, and I will also arrange an interface person here, so that they can complete the docking as soon as possible." ”
Saying that, George Buckley said: "After completing the docking, I will arrange for our person in charge of Greater China to hand over all the product information after localization to Taobao, and the shipping price of all products will be consistent with the shipping price of our national general agent." ”
Li Mu didn't expect George Barkley to be so crisp and executed, and even began to sort out the details of the cooperation, and couldn't help but admire: "Mr. George is really vigorous and resolute, if this efficiency is followed, I believe that the cooperation between 3M and Taobao in the future will be very close and smooth." ”
George Buckley said with a smile: "Mr. Li, 3M has been able to develop to this day, not only by the product, but also by our attitude, Taobao is the largest online sales platform in China, such a good cooperation opportunity, we naturally have to prioritize the first." ”
Speaking of this, George Barkley said: "Mr. Li, I have learned the rules of Taobao's self-operation before, and the process of Taobao's self-operation is to purchase and warehouse first, and then sell online, right?"
Li Mu nodded: "That's right." ”
George Buckley smiled: "In this way, we can provide Taobao with no more than 50 million US dollars of products in the form of post-settlement, and if the sales volume is large, this amount can be increased, and the flexibility is very large." ”
Li Mu couldn't help but be impressed by George Buckley, in the old saying, such a person is too discerning to do things, and when he sees others yawning, he not only knows how to hand over pillows, but also knows how to make the bed, and it is too worry-free to talk about cooperation with such a person.
So Li Mu also said very happily: "Since this is the case, then we will connect as soon as possible, and I will urge the relevant person in charge of Taobao to complete the launch of the store and goods as soon as possible." ”
George Buckley shook hands with Li Mu and said with a smile: "I hope this cooperation with Taobao Technology is happy." ”
"Happy cooperation!" Li Mu smiled slightly, and said: "George, now let's talk about the cooperation between Makino Technology and 3M." ”
George Buckley sat up straight and hurriedly said, "Please." ”
For George Buckley, cooperation with Makino Technology is his biggest appeal to see Li Mu this time, Taobao can only cover the territory of China after all, for other countries and regions, basically there is no influence, and YY is different, YY users all over the world, basically all users who use the Internet use YY, the number of users is even higher than Google, and the user viscosity is higher than Google, 3M needs, it is this kind of global partner.
Li Mubian said: "At present, Makino Technology is trying to operate our advertising resources in a way that does not harm users and can be mutually beneficial with partners, and 3M as a multinational company, most of the product lines sink to the retail end of 2C, so there must also be a great demand for global promotion resources, so we have a supply and demand basis between us, based on this, I have a relatively formed cooperation plan, I want to see if 3M is interested." ”
Li Mu's words touched on George Buckley's heart, as the CEO of 3M, the biggest surprise direction at present must be the front-end market, the globalization strategy of physical enterprises is easy to say, but too difficult to do, so George Buckley attaches great importance to the potential partner of Makino Technology.
The reason why he came from thousands of miles away was to hope to reach a promotion cooperation with Makino Technology, but he also knew that Li Mu had not done any promotion for any company before, and the only time he promoted Spielberg's movie "Cat and Mouse Game" once made him the North American box office champion.
Before he came, he was worried that Li Mu would refuse him, but he didn't expect that before he even said his appeal, Li Mu had already taken the initiative to throw an olive branch, how could he not be excited about such a good thing.
So, George Barkley couldn't hold back his excitement and said to Li Mu: "Mr. Li, we are also very much looking forward to the cooperation with Makino Technology, if it is convenient, please tell us about your cooperation plan." ”
Li Mu nodded and said with a smile: "That's the case, we now have a YY solo show, which has a lot of all kinds of dress up props, in addition to normal clothing, we can launch a variety of alternative outfits such as masks, face shields, gas masks, protective clothing, etc., if 3M is interested, we can take this piece out and make a product implantation for you, that is, we will cartoon your products, and then put them into YY Xiuli with the brand logo." ”
"In addition, we have plans to add a cartoon image of the weather assistant in the next version of YY, this image will appear in the weather plug-in of each YY user, if the user clicks to view the weather, you can see the cartoon image corresponding to the gender of the user, this image will be different according to the weather, different dress up prompts. ”
"If it's snowing, our weather helper wears a down jacket, and if it's hot, our weather helper wears short-sleeved, The point is that if the local air is polluted, our weather assistant will wear a 3M protective mask and a 3M air purifier next to you to remind everyone of the physical harm caused by air pollution......
