Chapter 609: New Glory
β¦β¦
Under the leadership of Ding Lei, Guo Shouyun turned around NetEase's headquarters that had obviously expanded a lot. Then I went to the logistics transit center in Xiaoshan, checked the living environment of the logistics staff, and after a brief communication with them, I went to the 'New Rongji' under the leadership of Ding Lei.
This is a Chinese restaurant located in the Xixi Wetland of Hangzhou, because of the beautiful scenery, coupled with the main Taizhou seafood delicious, as soon as it opened, it was appreciated by the upper class of Hangzhou, and it is also the first choice for many business people to have dinner.
"You seem to be interested in this restaurant?"
Noticing that Guo Shouyun kept looking around after coming in, Ding Lei asked curiously.
"The first time I came, I was curious, and I couldn't help but look at it twice. β
Although he said that, the more reason was that Ji Hong had plans to enter the high-end catering industry, as her lover, he subconsciously wanted to know more about this aspect. But there is no need to say this kind of thing to Ding Ledo for the time being.
"Two gentlemen, this is our menu. β
Seeing that Ding Lei had handed over the menu, Guo Shouyun waved his hand.
"You're a regular customer here, what's delicious, you know better than me, or you can order food!"
Ding Lei, who knew his informal personality, did not refuse, and ordered a few signature dishes.
"I've ordered the food, why don't you order the wine?"
Guo Shouyun nodded, took the menu and flipped to the wine page to take a look. The best wines found here are only the new Bordeaux premiers such as Latour, Lafite and Mouton, and the classic vintages such as 86, 92 and 94, which cannot be found here.
Not to mention the smaller production of top red wines such as RomanΓ©e Conti, Patus, Pontecanay and so on. But this is normal, counting Lafite and Latour, the world's top red wine production is only so much in a year, while the number of high-end restaurants in the world is tens of thousands, and when there are more monks and less porridge, it is so easy to book.
"Bring me a bottle of '01 Mouton and wake it up for 45 minutes!"
Guo Shouyun ordered their best bottle of red wine.
"Okay, please wait. β
"Boss, take the liberty of asking. Why did you suddenly allow NetEase to go public?"
After the waiter left, Ding Lei asked.
"It's better to be blocked. After glancing at him, Guo Shouyun continued, "With the listing of Huaxia Internet companies such as Ninth City, Ctrip, and E-Dragon on the NASDAQ one after another, the wealth-making movement generated by the Internet will inevitably arouse the envy of all Internet practitioners in China. This desire cannot be stopped by blocking it alone. In that case, it's better to let go. β
ββ¦ Also, I am not the same person I was three years ago. At that time, my attitude towards wealth and opportunity was to hold it in my hands as much as possible, and try not to expose it as much as possible. But now that I've experienced more and become more mature in my thinking, I have come to understand that when you try to hold everything in your hands, it's hard to grasp anything. But if you just grasp a few important points, then it's a little easier. β
After a pause, "If you're careful, you'll find out." Since the end of '01 to the present, I have basically not entered any new industry except for Unocal. Even Unocal is just an independent branch of the oil and gas business of the Pacific Energy Group. β
ββ¦ Lao Ding, I lifted the restrictions of NetEase, which is to let you develop freely and boldly according to your own ideas. With your talent and ability, I believe that the future of NetEase will be extremely brilliant!"
Look at his affirming eyes, listen to his encouraging tone, coupled with his extraordinary status and influence today. Even Ding Lei, who has experienced workplace experience, has a little more mentality in his heart of 'the one who is a confidant dies'.
"I will do my best to develop NetEase to the best!"
Guo Shouyun smiled and nodded. Although what he said before was not the root cause of his lifting of NetEase's listing restrictions, it was also one of the reasons, and it worked well.
"Sir, the food you ordered has arrived!"
"Put it here, thank you!"
After the waiter put down the meal and left, Guo Shouyun smiled and said, "Okay, it's time to eat." We'll talk about work later, so let's try the food first. β
"It's a pity that the red wine will have to wait a while before you can drink it!" Ding Lei nodded in agreement.
Generally speaking, a good red wine needs to be awakened for an hour before the taste is truly top-notch. But if you don't have enough time, half an hour or forty-five minutes is fine. Considering that after eating with Ding Lei later, he would have to rush back to the magic capital, so he could save a little time.
After eating and drinking, and chatting briefly for a while, Guo Shouyun put down his wine glass and glanced at Ding Lei, who was already getting more and more mellow on the other side, "What do you think of Ma Yun?"
"Horse luck?!"
Ding Lei was stunned for a moment.
"Hmm... In the same city, they are all Internet companies, and when it comes to e-commerce, you should have seen it many times, and you should have a deep impression of him!"
Ding Lei nodded, "He is indeed a person who is easy to impress!"
"Let's talk about it!"
"Jack Ma is undoubtedly an excellent entrepreneur, especially his eloquence, which is the best and most infectious of all the people I have ever met! β
ββ¦ Alibaba's corporate strategy is also excellent, not only dominating the B2B field, but also Taobao, which has only been established for a year, has also developed impressively. Now in the C2C field, he is already eBay's biggest opponent. β
"I didn't expect you to think so highly of him!"
Seeing the look of surprise on his face, Ding Lei smiled: "Although Taobao and NetEase Mall are in competition, it doesn't mean that I will belittle my opponent because of this. Instead, I try to study all his strengths and weaknesses. Isn't there a saying, 'He who knows himself best is always the enemy'!"
Guo Shouyun nodded. Later generations about the grievances and hatreds between Ma Yun and Ding Lei can be compiled into the best business war. Originally, he thought that before the eBay incident and the 11-year Alibaba VIE turmoil, the relationship between the two would not be too bad. But now, since the two set foot in e-commerce at the same time, they are destined to go against each other.
Guo Shouyun nodded, and just as he was about to continue to say something, he suddenly saw the strange look on Ding Lei's face!
Following his eyes, he turned his head and couldn't help laughing.
"What a coincidence!"
