Chapter 25 Each has his own mind
Ma Yun has been more annoyed with Ze Lianke in the past two years, or rather, more annoyed with Zhao Zejun.
In fact, many years ago, Ma Yun and Zhao Zejun had a very short 'honeymoon period': at the beginning of the West Lake Debate, Zhao Zejun replaced it with Zeyue's equity and a series of other conditions, obtained a part of Alibaba's equity, and returned this part of the decision-making power to Ma Yun.
At that time, Ma Yun, who was busy competing with Yahoo, a major shareholder, for decision-making power, once felt a 'confidant' with Zhao Zejun.
However, this honeymoon period passed quickly, and then Alibaba and Zelianke did not have too much very in-depth cooperation, as Ma Yun improved the 'partner' system little by little, and regained the decision-making power in his hands, the original goodwill has almost faded.
Next, Zelianke's support for JD.com and its layout in the financial industry directly clashed with Alibaba.
Ma Yun felt that her thin body was slapped several times in the chest by Zhao Zejun, but she couldn't blame the other party: what Zhao Zejun wanted to do was what Ma Yun wanted to do but didn't have time to do, but he didn't break the law, Ma Yun never said in public that he wanted to do it, Zelianke took the lead, and Ma Yun didn't even have a reason to complain.
The establishment of the Ali and Tencent camps has completely pushed Alibaba and Zelianke to the opposite side of the big picture.
In the 3Q war last year, due to Zelianke's 'wind and rain', or 'mediation', Alibaba finally got a certain benefit: 360's equity. This benefit completely fell from the sky, and it didn't take much effort, it was more like a negotiation to call people to stand on the scene, Alibaba's 'appearance fee'.
After this time, the tension between the two camps of Baize and Ali Tencent has finally eased a little.
Rao is like this, when Zhao Zejun is mentioned, Ma Yun is still depressed: if it weren't for Zelianke's interception, the current Internet financial market would be the world of Alipay and Alibaba; Nowadays, although Alipay is still the largest share of third-party payment, Danze Pay has caught up to the same level, as for the related financial industry, Zelianke is steadily more than Ali by one level.
Opposite Ma Yun was a middle-aged man with a somewhat round face, with a smiling face, and before he spoke, he seemed to have a natural smile on his face.
The head of Youku, Gu Yongqiang.
In terms of appearance, most people can see a clear difference between Internet leaders and traditional industrial bosses: the former is fat, thin, beautiful and ugly, but they all have the atmosphere of 'politeness' or 'technical man'.
Gu Yongqiang is an exception, judging from his appearance alone, he has a bit of an oily and smiling tiger's face, more like an industrial boss such as real estate.
"Mr. Ma, this Zhao Zejun still can't be underestimated."
Gu Yongqiang smiled when he didn't speak, very amiable, like Uncle Wang of the neighbor's house, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he gave people a sense of scheming, he said: "Zelianke is not short of money, Zhao Zejun has benefited a lot over the years, but Zelianke itself does not have a lot of expenses." Wang Wei dared to let the wind out, I think he was also out of the blue, some of the smell of broken jars, and in the end, he was still willing to sell potatoes. As long as Zhao Zejun is willing to spend his money, it is not difficult to win the potatoes. ”
Ma Yun thought for a while and asked, "Lao Gu, you and I will hand it over to the real bottom, do you want to take the potatoes or not?" ”
"Of course. However, ......" Gu Yongqiang paused and said with a smile: "The problem is that Wang Wei's hand not only puts Zelianke in a dilemma, but also makes all enterprises interested in potatoes face the problem of high-priced acquisitions." Someone grabbed it, the cold rice was delicious, and now Zelianke and Youku have expressed their interest in potatoes, and the result is that no matter which one wants to buy, there will inevitably be another one who will raise the price, and in the end they will have to pay a super high price. ”
said, and glanced at Ma Yun deeply, "Mr. Ma, although Youku is doing well in the stock market and has a lot of available money, it is not cost-effective to buy potatoes in this situation, and I am also weak." Of course ......"
He added: "It seems that Youku will still do enough, and it will not let Zelianke easily succeed." ”
"Hmm." Ma Yun nodded a little absentmindedly, and then suddenly asked a clueless question: "Is there still trouble inside Youku?" ”
Youku's internal 'trouble' refers to the issue of shares.
Since its establishment, Youku's employees have been treated very poorly, and the entire Internet industry is notoriously mean. However, Gu Yongqiang launched a method of 'everyone holding shares' as an incentive, in Youku, from the vice president to the company's security, as long as the basic conditions are met, you can hold shares.
In recent years, the myth that Internet companies have long been rich when they go public has been common, and this plan is like a bait, hanging the appetite of all Youku employees.
Youku did not disappoint its employees, and went public in the United States, with a surge in stock prices and a market value of billions of dollars.
But at this time, the employees were stunned to find that their 'money journey' was not as good as they imagined. In the process of financing and cooperation before and after the listing, Gu Yongqiang greatly diluted the shares of Youku employees, so that the shares he had in hand were not worth a few dollars at all.
Note that he diluted the employee's shares, not his own.
So there is a very funny situation, Youku's listing is booming, and the shareholding employees have not made much profit at all, and the shares in the hands of some senior employees are only tens of thousands of yuan, and there is even an embarrassing situation that the shares of the company's middle-level and even a few high-level cadres generally do not exceed 1 million.
Moreover, these shares cannot be sold for a certain number of years.
The real dividends of the listing fell into the hands of Gu Yongqiang and big investors.
One of the important reasons why Youku can become the top in the industry is 'talent', and Youku has a large number of industry talents.
People have worked hard in Youku for a few years, taking less, doing more, looking at their faces, and being angry, in order not to be the stock income after listing? !
It's not going to blow up yet!
So not long after Youku went public, there were a lot of discordant voices inside, which was quite boiling, and Gu Yongqiang and his team put a lot of energy into solving internal problems.
Hearing Ma Yun suddenly ask this, Gu Yongqiang's heart moved slightly, and he secretly scolded 'slippery head'.
Ma Yun is an e-commerce person, although she is a little 'contradictory' with Zhao Zejun, but she will not come to help Youku for personal feelings, and deliberately want to embarrass Ze Lianke.
Alibaba naturally has its interests.
Gu Yongqiang thought to himself, Mr. Ma, are you too 'shrewd', Zelianke and Tudou are still eyeing each other, and you are starting to play Youku's idea here?
"It has been solved a long time ago, and the treatment of some employees has been improved." Gu Yongqiang smiled faintly: "It's all a trivial matter. ”
