Just when the development of Tianxiu Group and its 67.com is in full swing, another domestic company is struggling.

At present, Dibao is still at the point of grabbing popular traffic for free, Alipay is burning money, and there is no hope in sight, and the competition in the face of eBay and other websites is very fierce, and funds are difficult, and many people think that Dibao can't make money.

In addition, the investors of Ah Li began to put pressure on the management represented by Ma Yun, hoping to quickly find a profit model, and did not want to continue to be free of charge.

What's more important is that eBay wants to buy Ah, and Son is quite moved by the price offered by eBay.

At a time of domestic and foreign difficulties, a previously unknown small company has also begun to enter the field of online payment.

Compared with Alipay's embarrassing situation, this Tianxiu network technology company is too rich, just like tap water, burning a lot of money to build momentum, so that Alipay, which is now a domestic payment pioneer, has become a foil.

Of course, Ma Yun is not worried about this, relying on Tianxiu Pay, which is under 67.com, it is destined to be impossible to grow into a towering tree due to its business form.

He was envious and jealous that the other party was too rich......

Thursday, May 5, 2005.

Guan Qiu, who was attending classes at school, received a call from Li Haoxuan, saying that Ma Yun, chairman of Ahliba Network Technology Co., Ltd., and Jin Jianhui, head of the business department, had visited.

"Oh, really?" Guan Qiu smiled, covered the microphone and asked Fei Wenbin next to him, "Old Fei, where is the KTV here?"

Fei Wenbin said: "There are a lot of commercial streets in the south, such as Haoledi, cash cabinets and so on. ”

Guan Qiu let go of his hand and said, "Tell them, I'll wait for them at the cash counter." ”

"Got the boss. Putting down the phone, Li Haoxuan grinned for a while. This boss is always imaginative, several times to come to the door to seek VC company, he just heard the name and decided to invest, this time is even more outrageous, actually went to KTV to talk about cooperation, the heart is really big.

When Li Haoxuan conveyed Guan Qiu's meaning to Ma Yun with some apologies, Ma Yun was also a little surprised, but then he got up and said with a smile: "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”

When Ma Yun and the others arrived at the cash cabinet on the commercial street in Hongqiao District, Guan Qiu was singing with a microphone alone, "Time has passed and will never return, and the past can only be recalled...... Mr. Ma, you are here, come on, come on, and sing together......"

As he spoke, Guan Qiu turned around and took a microphone to Ma Yun.

After Ma Yun took it, she sang casually: "I remember the childhood bamboo horse and green plum, and the two little ones have no guesses day and night......

Li Haoxuan and Jin Jianhui, who followed up with Guan Qiu, applauded together.

Guan Qiu sang along: "You have to change your heart like time is hard to turn back, I can only snuggle up to each other in my dreams......"

After singing a song, Guan Qiu laughed and handed the microphone to Li Haoxuan next to him, patted the sofa and said with a smile: "Mr. Ma, please sit down." ”

After Ma Yun sat down, the first sentence asked: "It seems that Mr. Guan already knows my intention?"

Guan Qiu smiled: "I've been paying attention to the dynamics of Ah Li, if the expectation is good, your current situation may not be too second." ”

The investors are urging me to change my business model, but I don't want to do that, if I do what they want, it won't be what I want." ”

Guan Qiu nodded, pondered for a while and asked, "I heard that Yahoo plans to buy shares in exchange for cash and all of Yahoo China's core technologies, I don't know if there is such a thing?"

Ma Yun was shocked in her heart, except for a very few people, it is absolutely impossible for outsiders to know such trade secrets, and the two parties have only just come into contact, I didn't expect the other party to know it so quickly, and sure enough, as rumored by the outside world, the magic power is vast.

Guan Qiu already knew, and Ma Yun didn't deny it, "Not bad!"

Guan Qiu smiled and said: "In this case, why did Mr. Ma come to me again? Let me guess, it should be that the conditions offered by the other party exceed Mr. Ma's psychological expectations!"

Ma Yun didn't want to be led by Guan Qiu's nose, and said with a smile: "Oh, then Mr. Guan might as well guess again, what about Yahoo's bid?"

Guan Qiu touched his nose and said with a smile: "Yahoo is not short of money, what it lacks is an investment target with market potential, and the market value of Ah Mile Bar is obvious to all, if it is replaced by me, at least 35% or 40% of the shares, and a part of the voting rights, Mr. Ma, what do you think?"

Ma Yun was really not shocked at this time, and looked at Guan Qiu like a ghost.

Ahliba is only in contact with Yahoo, and has not yet talked about the specific shareholding ratio, but according to internal estimates and Ahli's financial situation, it must sell more than 35% of the shares in exchange for abundant development funds.

But if this is their internal discussion, how did Guan Qiu know? Could it be that the other party sent an undercover agent in the top management of his company?

Seeing that Ma Yun was scared, Guan Qiu laughed and said: "Didn't I tell you just now, I have been paying attention to the dynamics of your Ah Li, and have found someone to analyze your operation and development status, these things are all told to me by analysts." ”

Hearing Guan Qiu's words, Ma Yun breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but she still muttered a little. This young invisible rich man is really a little incomprehensible.

Guan Qiu saw that the atmosphere was a little stiff, and said with a smile: "Come, sing a song and talk again." What does Mr. Ma like to sing, help you order. ”

Ma Yun said "red beans" smoothly, and Guan Qiu said to Li Haoxuan: "Come, help Mr. Ma order a red bean of Faye Wong." ”

"I haven't felt it yet, but the climate where the snowflakes bloom ......"

After singing the song, Guan Qiu smiled and said: "Don't hide it from Mr. Ma, I am very interested in Yahoo China's mailbox business......" Seeing Ma Yun's brows furrowed, Guan Qiu said: "Mr. Ma, don't get excited, listen to me, I plan to do so......"

On the day of the beginning of summer in 2005, Guan Qiu and Ma Yun chatted for more than three hours in the cash cabinet KTV in Hongqiao District, Shanghai, during which Guan Qiu also put forward some "personal opinions" on the future development of Ah Li Bar, Dibao and Alipay.

In the end, the two of them came out of KTV together, and when they left, they hooked their shoulders and backs, talking and laughing, and they looked like they hated each other.

……

Seeing the car disappear around the corner of the long street, Guan Qiu smiled on his lips.

To be honest, he originally wanted to support "Jingdong Multimedia" to compete with Ah Libar, but in the end he changed his mind.

The development of Ah Li Bar is not only Ma Yun's business, he also led the take-off of the entire Chinese Internet technology, the reason why China can step over the credit card consumption of European and American countries, and realize the corner overtaking into cashless consumption, among which Ah Li Bar has made great contributions.

He can't ruin the course of history just to make money.

The only way is to take a stake in Ahliba and become its majority shareholder.

The two parties agreed that Xinghai International Investment would inject US$1.8 billion into Aliba in one year, obtain 38% of the common shares, 30% of the voting rights, and a seat on the board of directors, and ensure that Ma Yun has the absolute right to speak in Aliba.

The first $300 million in development funding needs to arrive within a week.

In exchange, after the successful acquisition of Yahoo China, Ahliba needs to spin off its email business and related technology to Xingyu Technology.

The reason why he has to go around such a big circle, among them, Yahoo's search engine technology is very important to the future development of Ahliba, he has no Weixin layout, and there are other ways to make a fortune, but if Ahliba dies halfway because he can't get Yahoo China's technical support, then his sin will be great.

So he'd rather be a little more troublesome.

As for Yahoo China, it doesn't matter whether it will buy shares with technical requirements, they will sell it in the future anyway.

All that's left is the stake in SoftBank and other investment firms.

I'm afraid it's hard to get it on Softbank's side, but other wavering small VC companies can sweep them out in advance.

"You send someone to contact those VC companies and find a way to buy all the shares in their hands. ”

Li Haoxuan nodded, "I know the boss." ”
