Chapter 823 - Yahoo E-commerce (Part II)

After Zhu Yunlai took over the Sixiang Fund, he transferred Yuan Tianfang of AIA to the company, and then restarted the acquisition negotiations for Carrefour. After the bigwigs came to power, they launched an unhealthy trend against luxury and public money consumption. There are many undesirable consequences, such as the decline in the share price of Moutai Group, such as the decline in sales of European luxury goods such as Kering.

Well, let's go straight to the point, the Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy Group (LVMH), the richest man in France, Bernard Arnault, has also been hit hard in China, of course, this has absolutely nothing to do with Zhou Shi, really not! As for whether others believe it or not, he doesn't know. At the same time, the soft sister currency continues to appreciate, about 6.1 yuan to 100 million US dollars, which is only a line away from the limit of 6 yuan to 100 million US dollars. The market value of Sun Art Retail and other companies in Xiangjiang has also risen with the appreciation of the soft sister coin. Sun Art Retail and Wal-Mart have become the leading companies in Huaxia retail supermarkets, but even Wal-Mart is planning to close 9% of its stores, so the negotiations for the acquisition of Carrefour by Sixiang Fund are going well.

It's a pity that there are regrets, the stock prices of real estate companies are still tepid, and the stock prices of Evergrande and Sunac have not soared......

Of course, all of this is not the focus of today, in July, the international gold price fell below $1,200 per ounce, there is no doubt that if Lu He Peng Guoyu's gold futures long order without stop loss, must have been liquidated. In fact, Zhou Shi's speech at Wanwan Qinghua University was replaced by new hot spots within a few days, including the news that Meibang Securities invested in gold futures and suffered huge losses.

"Meibang Securities suffered a huge loss of $2.3 billion, or it will go bankrupt and restructure!"

"The Waterloo of China's legendary financial genius!"

"Centennial Meibang Securities has suffered huge losses and is facing bankruptcy!"

"Huaxia Soros's moment of life and death!"

"Those who are good at swimming will choke on water, and those who play with fire will burn themselves!"

"Zhou Shi's most important partner has suffered huge losses!"

"Chinese financial giants lose billions of dollars!"

In just a day or two, sensational news spread all over the planet. At this time, Zhou Shi and Sun Tongyu officially met with Guo Taiming, the richest man in Wanwan.

"Something so big, Simon isn't in a hurry to meet the United States?" Guo Taiming

"Big deal, nothing big?" Zhou Shi

"Meibang Securities lost more than $2 billion in gold speculation this time...... Guo Taiming

"Oh, it's okay, even if the loss doubles, it won't affect us much. It's just that if it's a credibility issue, I can't do anything about it. Zhou Shi said frankly, if you just lose money, the four elephants of the galaxy are really not afraid. But if there's anything else going on behind this, it's hard to say.

"Simon is really atmospheric!" Guo Taiming

"The main thing is that things are separated by a layer, sometimes too much enthusiasm is easy to cause misunderstandings, this time is very sensitive, and I don't want to say much!" Zhou Shi

"Yes, no matter how good the relationship between two people is, there is a difference. "Guo Taiming

"Not really!" Zhou Shi

"Why did Simon ask me to cooperate this time?"

"I'm sorry, it's not me, it's Brother Sun Tongyu, who is the founder of Taobao and one of Ali's original thirteen entrepreneurs. This time he was in charge, and Yahoo and I were strategic investors. "Zhou Shi

"Fortunately, I will be disrespectful!" Guo Taiming stood up and apologized

"Mr. Guo is welcome. "Sun Tongyu

"Mr. Sun wants to replicate Taobao's success in Wanwan?" Guo Taiming

"If it's just Wanwan's market, we don't need to look for Mr. Guo!" Sun Tongyu

"That's ......," Guo Taiming

"We have our eye on the entire Southeast Asian market and want to occupy this virgin land!"

"There are already a lot of e-commerce companies here, it's not virgin land!" Guo Taiming

"The people here have not experienced the commercial competition in China, and they don't know the cruel ...... of the market at all," said Sun Tongyu

"Does Mr. Sun have a specific business plan?" Guo Taiming

"I haven't ...... yet," Sun Tongyu said embarrassedly

"This blames me for the temporary idea, I want to adjust Wanwan Yahoo and give up the e-commerce business, but after inspecting the e-commerce market in Wanwan, I am not very satisfied, these people do not have the quality of an excellent entrepreneur, and it is difficult to succeed without big ideals and firm beliefs. In particular, Southeast Asian countries have a large number of ethnic groups, a complex geographical environment, and a stable governance environment. So I trust Brother Sun's ability even more. "Zhou Shi

"But I can't help you with anything. "Guo Taiming

"To be honest, we are not short of money, we are not short of technology, we are not short of management experience, but the complex market environment in Southeast Asia is our biggest challenge. It's not that I haven't thought about Xiangjiang Li Bancheng, but I think that doing business is a greater contribution to society, and I am not a pure businessman now, I have my own preferences. Brother Sun also has an idealistic temperament, and would rather face more difficulties and challenges, but also do what he thinks is right. "Zhou Shi

"And it is difficult for e-commerce companies to make profits in the short term, and as the scale expands, there will be huge losses, and if there are no suitable investors, they may not be able to accept ......it," Sun Tongyu also echoed.

Guo Taiming promised to donate 90% of his personal wealth, perhaps because he has his own idea of positive governance, or for the inheritance of wealth, but no one can say that he has no idea of giving back to society. As for some people who say that OEM companies are sweatshops that only make money by squeezing labor, it can only be said that these people are too naïve. Foxconn's quality of life/efficiency is their most advantageous weapon. No matter how much Huawei mobile phones boast, its yield rate is not as good as that of Foxconn's OEM Apple mobile phones, and the level of production can be seen at a glance. Why did Huaxia let Foxconn/FII be listed on the A-share market, because it is indeed the representative of Huaxia's advanced productive forces.

"We'll discuss the specific ways of cooperation!" Guo Taiming, after several people communicated for a long time, he said this.

"That's as it should be!" Sun Tongyu

"I don't have any opinion, it's just that Internet companies pursue speed, don't be too slow, Brother Sun will control it himself, and I won't accompany you." "Zhou Shi

"Rest assured that it will not be delayed for a long time, it is my honor for the best Internet people in China to cooperate with me. By the way, I heard that Spreadtrum Communications has something to do with Simon?"

"Mr. Guo also knows?" Zhou Shi asked with a little surprise

"Everything in the smartphone industry is what I care about. When I heard that Spreadtrum and MediaTek were competing for the CDMA patent license of VIA's companies, I inquired a little more, and Wei He, who was close to Simon, was also involved. "Guo Taiming

"Qualcomm's affairs are very complicated, we try to avoid losses and enhance our competitiveness, and CDMA patent authorization is very important. "Zhou Shi

"Simon wants to pay royalties to Qualcomm?"

"Even if I can do it, I don't dare!" Zhou Shi

"What do you say?" Guo Taiming

"The U.S. Department of Justice has arrested Pieruzzi, an executive at Alstom in France, for 'commercial bribery'!"

"???" Guo Taiming

"GE prepares to acquire Alstom's power equipment division!" Zhou Shi
