Life always has to go on, this is Lin Fan's consistent attitude, he will not complain or daydream, only move forward steadily.

But life always comes with some surprises, such as Ma Yun who came from afar, which caught Lin Fan off guard, although the two had a drink together when the Huaxia Entrepreneur Club was established, but they did not have a deep friendship other than that.

Mortal Mall, Lin Fan waited for Ma Yun here, this somewhat weird face will change the lives of Chinese people in the future. However, in Lin Fan's opinion, it was very kind, this was the face that he had always remembered in his previous life.

"The spirit of the staff of the Mortal Mall is very good. Ma Yun sighed, the hard work on the faces of every employee reminded him of Alibaba, which was founded in 1999, when although there were few employees, everyone was full of energy.

"It's not as good as Mr. Ma's Ali, and now Ali is about to go public, and I don't know if it's going to be in the Year of the Monkey. ”

"If you want, you can do it right away. ”

The two looked at each other and laughed.

The two went to Lin Fan's office hand in hand and took a sip of the tea made by Lin Fan, Ma Yun's face was still unfinished, I don't know whether he was sighing at the beauty of this tea, or still marveling at what Qin Jun took him to visit.

"Before, my curiosity about mortals was more about business skills, and I don't know how smart it was to be able to come up with the gimmick of carnival. But now I understand that the success of mortals is not a slogan shouted, a well-organized classification, a strict review process, strong technical support, everything is incredible. ”

Lin Fan shook his head, "Actually, I'm following the path that Ali has already walked. ”

It's just that Lin Fan didn't say a word, compared to Ali mortals, there was no detour, Ali cultivated the brand by holding an online business conference, and obtained engine technical support by accepting Yahoo financing. But these Lin Fan have already done it, Dangdang already has brand recognition, Liu Jianguo's early guidance has established the foundation of engine technology, not to mention the existence of Wang Xiaochuan, an expert.

"Mr. Lin is not curious about the reason why I am here?"

Lin Fan sat on the sofa very easily, "As for the reason, I don't care too much, but I'm not used to calling this name, what do you call Mr. Lin, directly Lao Lin, I call you Lao Ma, isn't your flower name in Ali Feng Qingyang?"

"Hey, you know this, but how do I feel that I have suffered a loss when you call me an old horse?"

"That's not the point, the point is the reason why you're here. ”

Hey, Lin Fan went around directly with this shamelessness, and Ma Yun didn't care, he was already in a heavy habit of the rivers and lakes, and he was also respected for this kind of year-old friendship, not to mention that he was not ambitious in his old age.

"I have always been full of confidence in e-commerce, since 1999 I started to do e-commerce, services, and platforms, until now, my confidence has never changed, but the emergence of your mortal mall, everything seems to be different. The future of e-commerce has never been brighter. ”

Lin Fan smiled faintly, "Old Ma, how did I hear the taste of ill intentions from your words. ”

Ma Yun couldn't help laughing, "I came with sincerity." ”

Lin Fan was noncommittal, he already had a rough guess about Ma Yun's intention, if Ma Yun was here to learn from the experience, Lin Fan's generous display should have satisfied Ma Yun, but now he was clearly interested in his mortal mall. But he has always been grateful for the acquisition of Lin Fan, and he is not short of funds.

Ma Yun saw that Lin Fan didn't speak and understood that Lin Fan estimated that he had already guessed in his heart, although he couldn't figure out Lin Fan's attitude, but he did come with sincerity, he could see the huge value of the mortal mall, once he had the shares of the mortal mall, Ali would complete the layout in the O2O field and the B2C field, and with the potential of the two companies, half of the Huaxia e-commerce industry will be in my hands in the future.

"Lao Lin, are you interested in Ali and mortals joining forces?"

"This is not a strong combination, the mortal mall is like a child and a giant in front of Ali. ”

"Why should you be presumptuous, since I have proposed this plan, I value the potential of mortals. ”

Lin Fan shook his head again, "Old Ma, I understand what you mean, and I am also full of affection for you as a person. In my eyes, you will definitely have a place for the people of the year in Huaxia in the next 20 years, and Ali under your leadership will definitely become the head of Huaxia enterprises, but I can't agree with it. ”

Ma Yun was stunned by Lin Fan's solemn words, and he was a little surprised, because he could feel Lin Fan's sincerity. But who is Lin Fan? A person who makes nearly 3 billion sales in a day, such a person says that he will become a man of the year in China?

Now Ma Yun can't imagine it, but in fact, he was hired by the British Prime Minister as a financial adviser, received by the President of the United States, and delivered a speech at the United Nations.

"Although Lao Lin, you have already expressed your attitude, I still want to state my thoughts, I think that the union of mortals and Ali is a mutually beneficial thing, and I can even say that I will make some concessions on the exchange of shares between the two sides. ”

"Aren't you here to buy mortals?"

"Of course not. ”

Saying this, Ma Yun saw Lin Fan's wonderful expression, how could he not understand that there was a big oolong between the two at this time, and couldn't help laughing, "Mortals are your children, how can I win people's love? Speaking of this, Ma Yun looked at Lin Fan expectantly, "Old Lin, what do you think of my proposal now?"

To be honest, Lin Fan is a little excited, what is the concept of Ali? A company with a market value of more than $400 billion in the future, Ali, which has not yet been listed in Hong Kong, is really great for Lin Fan at this time, and his Chinese power in the e-commerce circle can definitely increase greatly in the future.

"Ali is a behemoth, and Mortal Mall is still a child. ”

Ma Yun's face was happy, how could he not understand that this was Lin Fan making a condition, "Lao Lin, Ali's listing is imminent, my valuation of Ali is about $13 billion, and the valuation of Mortal Mall is about $3 billion, and the two sides have initially traded ten percent of the shares, what do you think?"

This offer is quite pertinent, Mortal Mall was only about 200 million US dollars before Lin Fan took over, and Lin Fan knew that Alibaba's market value in Hong Kong had only reached 28 billion, and now the quotation of 13 billion was very conscientious.

"Old Ma, can you be the master of trading shares with mortals?"

"Of course, the board of directors passed it all, and both Yahoo and SoftBank are confident in Mortal Mall. ”

Lin Fan nodded, but then the corners of his mouth curled up a little, "Old Ma, I am quite supportive of the exchange of shares, but I disagree with the offer." ”

"The offer is not a problem, we can negotiate more. "Ma Yun is very generous, if he can enter the mortal mall, a super popular company, it is also a good publicity point for Ali's listing, which is enough to strengthen the confidence of investors.

"I don't like sky-high prices, so I might as well make a game. ”

"Oh?"

.......

The next day, just as the Mortal Mall announced the launch of the first round of financing, the entire venture capital world was turned upside down......
