Chapter 901: Before the press conference
The next morning.
The temperature in the capital is a bit low, and there is a chill coming, indicating that winter is coming.
But even so, there are still many media reporters gathered at Jingdong Company today, blowing the cold wind and waiting for the big news they don't want to miss.
In fact, a while ago, when Jingdong Company was engaged in some supercomputer and artificial intelligence projects, many peers speculated that they might make big moves.
Because of the speculation at that time, it made the declining stock of Jingdong Company rise a little, so the media has been paying attention.
It's just that the top management of the company has not revealed any information, and it has been kept secret, and the outside world has been speculating about what kind of actions they are doing.
Until yesterday, when Xu Ran appeared at the headquarters of Jingdong Company, and Mr. Liu personally greeted such a scene after being discovered by several reporters and reported it for the first time, the media industry was suddenly like a shark smelling fishy, and felt that big news was about to be born.
Until yesterday afternoon, a spokesman for Jingdong Company revealed that a signing ceremony will be held today, that is, a press conference, which will reveal the answers that have puzzled all walks of life recently.
Therefore, early this morning, most of the media who got the news rushed here, even though the cold wind was blowing outside, it still could not stop the enthusiasm of these media reporters who wanted to get first-hand news information.
At the same time, all walks of life in the e-commerce and Internet industries are also paying attention to Jingdong's big move, wondering how he can get out of the predicament of his reputation.
At nine o'clock in the morning, it was time to go to work.
After the door of the Jingdong building was opened, the first floor was crowded with media reporters from all walks of life, who ran to register and planned to seize the most advantageous position.
The press conference will be held in the large conference hall of the Jingdong building, but some reporters have already gone to interview several of the company's first-time executives.
……
At the same time, on the building of the Kyungdong company.
Xu Ran and Li Ruhong arrived here an hour early with their team.
Mr. Liu is also very early today, and he also brought four shareholder representatives, two Chinese and two Chinese, but they also work for the Chinese people.
After meeting Xu Ran, these shareholder representatives showed extraordinary enthusiasm.
In fact, Xu Ran was very clear about the purpose of these shareholder representatives meeting him, and he was even more aware of the ultimate purpose of Mr. Liu's recent actions.
He knew everything, but he didn't say anything, and pretended not to know anything, and still maintained a cooperative relationship with Mr. Liu, and he also had his own plans.
Mr. Liu has been in trouble recently, which has affected the company's stock price, and he wants to make efforts in logistics, and wants to push the logistics company to the market through the stimulation of large projects and events, so as to achieve the purpose of raising the stock price of Jingdong Company.
In fact, last night, Mr. Liu of Penguin Company called Xu Ran, Xu Ran pondered afterwards, checked some information, and probably figured out Mr. Liu's intentions.
Therefore, he will not be surprised to meet four shareholder representatives of Jingdong this morning.
These people have suffered losses due to the decline in Jingdong's stock price, and they must have to stop their losses, so now is not the right time to trade those stocks, and they must find a way to stimulate and pull up the stock price.
Then, if this cooperation can be successfully reached, both Mr. Liu and these shareholders attach great importance to it, and this cooperation is also the key to the smooth issuance and listing of Jingdong Logistics.
Although Xu Ran doesn't know much about the Internet industry, the last time he learned and in-depth understanding of finance and investment from the Sato Club, Xu Ran also had his own cognition and ideas about the mode of financial capital operation in the Internet industry.
To put it bluntly and vulgarly, the common operation in the Internet industry is to sell concept ideas and product models.
With this premise, you can use it to peddle investment, spend money to make money, attract a certain amount of users and traffic attention in the development model, and then introduce capital interest exchange financing to upgrade speculation, continue to spend money to buy reputation, and when it reaches a certain size, it will begin to fool the public and investors to pile it up until the conditions for listing are ripe, and then carry out capital operation and listing and issuance.
In this process, as for whether to lose money or make money, it is estimated that the paper data will be more beautiful and good-looking, and it will definitely not make money before the listing.
Therefore, Xu Ran does not like this way of relying on soft costs to operate, because it is full of a large number of dirty transactions and dirty insiders, and it is impossible to say that this kind of listed company that swells up like a bubble without any background will soon die.
In this, the credibility is maintained by the entrepreneur alone, and at the same time, it involves a very key thing, that is, personal credibility.
Once there is a problem with personal credibility, then this company with no foundation and accumulation will also lose a lot of credibility, and it will not be far from decay.
Xu Ran admires the most is Apple's super giant company that relies on continuous innovation, relies on a large number of high-tech accumulation, and combines hard cost strength and capital operation to develop, he believes that only such a company will stand the test of time, even if his founder is dead, but with hard power support, credibility does not need to be maintained by the founder, so he is still enduring.
For Kyungdong, he's just somewhere in between.
If you want to talk about hard power, his logistics is indeed doing better in China, but when it comes to soft power, it is completely incomparable with a cat, and he is almost beaten by others.
In terms of personal credibility, Boss Ma's personal credibility has been maintained very well, but Mr. Liu's words are debatable.
Xu Ran wants to intervene in the Internet layout, he naturally will not cooperate with Mr. Liu in soft power, and he will consider whether it will be an old horse or a pony.
For the cooperation with Mr. Liu, most of them will only use the hard power of the other party in terms of hardware to achieve the purpose of improving their hard power.
It is with this purpose that Xu Ran will maintain contacts and cooperate with Mr. Liu, and Mr. Liu's logistics system will become an important springboard for his robot industry and artificial intelligence to take off.
As for another reason, that is, until now, Mr. Liu is still the only top Internet boss Xu Ran has ever contacted, and he is also a person who has taken the initiative to discuss and communicate with Xu Ran.
As for the big and small horse bosses, or Sanshi, etc., there has been no opportunity to get in touch, and there has been no communication, and the understanding is only through the Internet.
Besides, in the eyes of others, he is just a junior and a layman.
Even if Xu Ran waved the money and wanted to talk about cooperation in the past, people saw that you were a novice, in addition to being rich, there were no resources worth valuing or relying on in the Internet industry, so they would naturally politely refuse, so why should Xu Ran bother to make up for himself.
Therefore, this cooperation with Mr. Liu, taking the logistics industry as the starting point to lay out the Internet industry, is also very important to Xu Ran.
In such a situation, the launch will begin soon.
