Chapter 610: Online Business Conference
Chapter 610 Online Business Conference
β¦β¦
"Mr. Guo, Lao Ding, I didn't expect to see the two of you here!"
Looking at the little man who strode over, smiling but with a powerful aura, Guo Shouyun stood up with a smile.
"Mr. Ma is also here for dinner?"
"The seafood of Xin Rong Ji is a must in Hangzhou, and it just so happens that I am a person who likes to eat, so I am naturally a frequent visitor here. Lao Ding must know this!" Ma Yun's eyes looked at Ding Lei next to him.
"Lao Ma is indeed a frequent visitor here!"
Facing the eyes of the two, Ding Lei smiled.
Guo Shouyun nodded clearly, his gaze bypassed Ma Yun, "Mr. Cai, we meet again!"
"Hello, Mr. Guo!"
Cai Chongxin took the initiative to stretch out his right hand.
After a simple greeting, Guo Shouyun smiled: "The two of you just came?"
"I just finished a meeting, and I'm a little late!" Ma Yun said.
"If you two don't dislike it, why don't you sit down together, we have just started eating! Moreover, this bottle of 01-year-old Mouton has been awake for more than forty minutes, and it is just right to eat. Guo Shouyun nodded and said.
"Since Mr. Guo sincerely wants to invite, he naturally can't refuse!"
Seeing Ma Yun say this, Cai Chongxin smiled and did not refuse.
After the four of them sat down, Guo Shouyun's gaze quickly swept over the faces of the two.
"Speaking of which, I would like to congratulate the two of you, following Alibaba's breakeven in '02, last year's revenue and profit both rose, and the just-launched Taobao has also become an e-commerce site that can compete with eBay in the C2C field within a year. Both of them are indispensable!"
"Mr. Guo has won the prize. Taobao is still far from NetEase Mall. Besides, Alibaba Group is doing well, and you are the biggest beneficiary. "Ma Yundao.
Guo Shouyun smiled faintly, he understood the meaning of the other party's words. Since his last visit to Huaxia to participate in Alibaba's venture capital, his stake in Alibaba through Hanhua Trust has increased from 7.8 percent at the beginning to 20 percent now! Because of his intervention, SoftBank and Masayoshi Son, who were supposed to be Alibaba's largest investors, have now been blocked out.
"When it comes to benefits, all I get is money, but what Mr. Ma Yun gets is 'fame and fortune'. If Alibaba becomes a world-class enterprise in the future, then you will be recognized by the global business community as the founder compared to me as an investor, so you yourself are the biggest beneficiary of Alibaba's development... Do you say yes, Mr. Ma Yun?"
"Mr. Guo's words are refreshing! But what I'm more curious about is how you're going to do it if Alibaba competes with eBay?"
"eBay?"
Guo Shouyun was stunned.
"Mr. Guo doesn't own more than 30% of eBay, far more than your stake in Alibaba!"
"That's true. However, I didn't expect that Mr. Ma would target Taobao so quickly!"
"Having a clear strategic goal is not going in the wrong direction. I learned this from Mr. Guo. β
Guo Shouyun smiled, "I'm very honored." But back to Mr. Ma's question earlier. If Alibaba and eBay compete in the C2C space in the future, I will not take sides. β
"Is it just you, or does it include all the businesses in which you control or hold a stake?"
"As for the shareholding of the company I control, as an investor, I cannot interfere with the normal business activities of the other party without reason. Just like I can't interfere with Mr. Ma and Mr. Cai's Alibaba's business. β
"What if it's NetEase?"
Ma Yun nodded, glanced at Ding Lei, who was silent next to him, and continued.
"It's up to Lao Ding himself, he is the CEO of NetEase, I'm just an investor!" Guo Shouyun smiled.
Although the truth is not as he said, in front of outsiders, it is still necessary to give Ding Lei enough face.
"I'm just running NetEase, and I still have to listen to your opinions on important decisions!" Ding Lei is not stupid, and he also gave Guo Shouyun enough respect.
"If you two say that, then I'm relieved... Lao Ding, we at Alibaba hope to cooperate with NetEase to do some publicity for Taobao's business. β
Ding Lei nodded.
"As long as it is a business that NetEase can do, we will not refuse. However, we can find a time to sit down and talk about the specific cooperation. β
"Of course! It's rare to have good food and wine right now, and I don't want to let it down. β¦ Come, Mr. Guo. Today I borrow flowers to offer the Buddha a glass to you. If I have time on a given day, I'll stop and invite you to dinner in person. β
"Then I'll just wait for Mr. Ma's invitation. β
"Of course!"
"Cheers!"

"How long will Mr. Guo stay in Huaxia this time?" Cai Chongxin suddenly asked.
"Not fixed. If this side of the matter can be dealt with sooner, I will leave early. If it's a little later, leave a little later. However, Huaxia is a place I often come to. Even if I leave this time, I will come back soon. β
"It seems that Mr. Guo is very optimistic about the future of Huaxia!" Cai Chongxin nodded and said.
"Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn't have invested a lot of money here!" After a pause, Guo Shouyun looked at the other party, "Mr. Cai asked, I think there should be something, right?"
"Mr. Guo is not false. In order to promote the future development of the e-commerce industry, Alibaba Group intends to hold an 'e-commerce conference' in the middle of this year. β
"E-commerce conference?" Guo Shouyun said with interest.
As a reborn person, he is naturally no stranger to Alibaba's annual online business conference.
Cai Chongxin nodded.
"Over the past decade, a large number of businessmen have achieved commercial success through the Internet and e-commerce. At present, a large group of 'online merchants' has been formed, and we are preparing for this conference, and hope to attract the attention of the public through it, so as to further enhance the popularity of Internet e-commerce, so that more people can join, and then promote the progress of the entire industry. β
"That's a great idea!"
Guo Shouyun nodded affirmatively. In fact, the holding of the online business conference has indeed attracted the attention of the whole society and allowed more and more people to join the ranks, as Cai Chongxin said. In his memory, the story of becoming a millionaire and multi-millionaire through the Internet was popular among the entire youth class in the period from '04 to '10. Including himself, he also followed the crowd and opened an online store on Taobao.
However, he was still one step too late, and the good resources had long been taken up by the old birds. In addition, he is a part-time job, and his energy can't keep up, and he is reluctant to spend money on bills. Half a year later, the online store went yellow.
His failure does not prove the failure of the 'E-commerce Conference', on the contrary, it is precisely because of Alibaba's continuous propaganda that e-commerce has truly become one of the important factors for China to lead the world in the future."
"If I had been in China at the time, I would have participated. β
"We will definitely call Mr. Guo in person then!"
Guo Shouyun smiled and nodded.
Then everyone pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and the dinner ended at about ten o'clock in the evening.
On the car back, Ding Lei said: "At the online business conference, it is a good idea for them to play horses." As soon as this meeting is held, Alibaba's influence in the field of e-commerce will skyrocket, which can not only bring benefits, but also get a good reputation!
"Envious?" Guo Shouyun said with a smile.
"It's a bit envious. But the same method is not suitable for NetEase!"
Although NetEase Mall is also an e-commerce, it is B2C, that is, a platform for individuals. Even the cooperative companies are all large, electronics, culture, food and other companies that have been established for many years, and they only regard NetEase Mall as an online sales channel, which is not as important as the offline trading channel established for many years. It is simply not realistic to hold a similar 'online business conference', and it is not as effective as Alibaba's 'online business conference'. And picking up people's teeth and wisdom, the picture makes people laugh.
"NetEase is not Alibaba, we just need to do B2C well. β
"I understand!" After a pause, "Alibaba's Taobao competes with eBay...?"
"It's up to you to decide this matter, I won't interfere!"
Regardless of whether Ding Lei will be like he remembered in his previous life, because this matter parted ways with Ma Yun and Alibaba, he will not interfere.
Today's Guo Shouyun's identity has reached a certain level, no matter whether the two sides will fight each other in the future, the relationship with him will not change!
After dropping Ding Lei off at his residence, Guo Shouyun drove out of Hangzhou. By the time he got home three hours later, it was already after midnight.
Seeing that the wait was still on, Guo Shouyun handed over his coat to Wang Jue and put it away, and then walked up.
