Chapter 218: Entrepreneur Ma Yun

Zhang Chen doesn't want to invest in Ma Yun at present, and the Alipay incident in his previous life made Zhang Chen's credit evaluation of Ma Yun not high.

While there is a policy element to this, it is not without a fairer solution. However, Ma Yun seized the loophole in the contract and blatantly breached the contract, taking the full amount of Alibaba's best assets into his own hands, completely ignoring the interests of his partners, and still making most people scruple about Ma Yun's methods.

In fact, Zhang Chen has always been very disgusted with the so-called business ethics, business is a collection of concepts, not a natural person, not an entity, how can there be morality or immorality?

But just because business has no moral attributes doesn't mean that businessmen can't be moral.

There are only two most important ethics for a businessman, making money and being honest.

Integrity, the biggest manifestation is the spirit of contract. Words that are said can be exhausted at the negotiation stage, such as spilled water, but as long as the agreement is signed, it should be carried out in accordance with the agreement. Seeing profit and forgetting righteousness is a taboo for businessmen.

Words are impermanent, deeds are impermanent, only where the profit is, everything is poured, if it is, it can be described as a villain.

Moreover, the current Ma Yun does not have the real investment value, and the current domestic network environment is not mature, and it will take a few more years. If he has the confidence to control Ma Yun after investigation and strict contract setting at that time, it is not bad to be a major shareholder when he is in difficulty. But if after a few years of investigation, you still feel that the risk is too high, then it is better to find another team by yourself, even if you personally come forward and build a new Taobao empire, it is not impossible.

Therefore, Zhang Chen just listened quietly, occasionally echoed a sentence or two, and did not express too many opinions.

Ren Yi listened attentively, Ma Yun's eloquence was very good, and his appeal was very strong. Although he does not have the halo bonus of the "godfather of entrepreneurship" in later generations, and he does not have the calmness and calmness brought by success, he has more initiative and enthusiasm.

Ma Yun is now in the time when he talks about the Internet whenever he meets people, and it is rare to find two listeners who are willing to listen to him and can understand him, plus one of them is a big coffee person who can only look up to Ma Yun now. Ma Yun has a heart to perform, and naturally he is a lotus flower.

Who would have thought that he would be fine at night, and in the small bar in Dongjiaomin Lane, he would actually meet Zhang Chen?

Ma Yun noticed that Zhang Chen did not express his opinions too much, but how could he return empty-handed when he entered Baoshan? Therefore, Ma Yun finished talking about his entrepreneurial ideas and took the initiative to ask Zhang Chen's opinion.

Zhang Chen was originally just perfunctory, but seeing Ma Yun so indomitable, he also felt a little that as the first batch of pioneers of the domestic Internet in the real sense, it can be said that there are very few people who can live to become a big name in the industry after 20 years. After looking at the current Ma Yun, Zhang Chen understood why he was successful.

Therefore, Zhang Chen pondered for a moment, "Mr. Ma, I quite agree with your point of view. But I don't agree with you that ISPs are going to be the biggest startup hotspot of the future. ”

Ma Yun was shocked, "Oh?

Zhang Chen organized the language, "First of all, ISP, as the infrastructure of the Internet, has too much capital investment, which is not affordable for individual entrepreneurs. At the same time, due to its high investment, the cost pressure brought about by it, it is impossible to reduce the Internet tariff to a level acceptable to the public in a short period of time, and it can be said that it is even more difficult to recover the cost. ”

"Secondly, policy factors, the current domestic policy guidance for Internet ISPs is too vague, and the policy risk of individual entrepreneurs entering this market is too large. ”

Ma Yun just wanted to speak, Zhang Chen waved his hand, "There is a third point, although the Internet has just started in China, people of insight know that this is the general direction of the future, which can be described as the important weapon of the country, and ISP, as the most basic and fundamental service provider of the Internet, it is difficult for the state to allow the intervention of private capital." Even if there is, it can only be a secondary market, and all ports and root servers must be controlled by the state, which is caused by our national conditions. ”

"The above three points are almost impossible to solve, so I judge that the future ISP providers in China must be state-owned background, and only from the national level can they popularize the Internet in a short period of time, regardless of cost and profit investment. It is only at the national level that various departments can be coordinated. ”

Ma Yun was silent for a while, although the Huaxia Yellow Pages he is doing now is only to help enterprises and government agencies make web pages, but Ma Yun's future idea is still to be a platform, since it is a platform, what is bigger than the entire Internet platform? Now there is only one private enterprise ISP in Huaxia, that is, Yinghaiwei.

After meeting Zhang Shuxin, Ma Yun agreed with some of Zhang Shuxin's views, such as the ISP is the cornerstone of the Internet, and controlling the ISP is equivalent to controlling the Internet. But he also disagrees with another part of Ms. Zhang's view that ISPs must be geared towards ordinary consumers.

Ma Yun's current Huaxia Yellow Pages target customers are mainly enterprise users and government agencies, and he believes that the Internet will be applied in enterprises and institutions first, and Zhang Shuxin's ISP for the public is a dead end.

Therefore, Ma Yun was really tempted when he heard that the Ministry of Foreign Trade was planning to establish his own ISP platform, and now he is not happy in the Yellow Pages of China, and he is in trouble with major shareholders.

Hearing Zhang Chen say that ISP providers in the future will definitely have a state-owned background, Ma Yun is even more determined to become a Huaxia E-commerce Center (CIECC).

Cooperate with government agencies and serve users at the same time, which is also a government enterprise and institution, Ma Yun believes that this is the most likely way to succeed in the current domestic environment.

Ma Yun said sincerely: "Zack, thank you very much, these points you said are also what I have been thinking about recently, and they have helped me a lot." By the way, can you leave a contact information? I will ask you if I have any questions in the future. ”

Zhang Chen happily left his mobile phone number to Ma Yun, and Ma Yun also left Zhang Chen his BP machine number, and the contact between the two was established.

On the way back to the guest house, Ren Yi kept looking Zhang Chen up and down, staring at Zhang Chen straight hair.

"What are you doing? I'm not gay. Zhang Chen subconsciously moved away from Ren Yi a few steps.

Ren Yi quickly caught up and said, "I really didn't expect that you still know what the Internet is, and the things you make are sold for so much money in the United States." ”

Zhang Chen said helplessly: "It's just a coincidence, and the valuation can't be counted at all, it's all wealth on paper, if someone really buys it." ”

Ren Yi's eyes lit up like looking at a giant panda: "Brother, next year I will come to Kyoto to go to university, you are in Bincheng, not far away, we can get together more when the time comes." ”
