Chapter 142 and Ma Yun cooperated
Regarding mobile payment, Lei Jun also mentioned in the development strategy submitted to Lu Yang, which involves Internet finance, which is what Ma Yun is good at.
Alipay was split from Taobao in 04, and after 5 years of development, it has grown into the largest third-party payment platform in China. Ma Yun's ambitions are not satisfied, and Alipay has repeatedly sought cooperation with banks. It can be said that in the field of Internet finance, Alipay has been one step ahead. Even JD.com, which regards Taobao as its great enemy, relies on Alipay to pay, which shows the dominance of Alipay.
For finance, Lu Yang is respectful and stays away. His goal is to do business, and he will do so in the future. However, Lei Jun is different, in his development layout, Internet finance is a very important piece. For Lei Jun, even if Tianxin Technology does not rely on Internet finance to make money, it must make achievements in this field. If it weren't for that, Lu Yang would not have mentioned Alipay to Ma Yun.
"The rise of mobile clients has become an unstoppable trend, and according to my predictions, within a decade, mobile will inevitably surpass PC. It is not modest to say that in the field of mobile intelligence in the future, there must be a place for Tianxin Technology. I know that Mr. Ma is actively promoting Alipay, and we can embed Alipay's program in the smart operating system......" Lu Yang put the wine glass aside and said softly.
Ma Yun listened, and her brain spun quickly. I have to say that Lu Yang's mention made him really moved. In China, the Wisdom Alliance occupies more than 80% of the mobile phone market, and if Alipay can be embedded in the smart operating system, it will be able to gain an absolute advantage in the mobile client in an instant.
However, even though she was moved, Ma Yun still kept calm.
"Mr. Lu, we got the market, what do you want to get?" Ma Yun took a sip of wine and asked slowly.
Lu Yang said: "We want Alipay." ā
Ma Yun's face changed suddenly, and her eyes sharpened: "Mr. Lu, you're not joking, are you?" ā
It's no wonder that Ma Yun reacted violently, and from the beginning, he regarded Alipay as his own land. Over the years, through various share transfers and operations, Ma Yun has successfully controlled all the shares of Alipay under her own name. It can be said that Alipay will inevitably break away from Ali in the future and become Ma Yun's private property.
For Ma Yun, Ali is her own business, and Alipay is her own money bag. He can share his career with others, but his wallet cannot.
Lu Yang said: "Mr. Ma, don't worry, I believe you also know that the development of the mobile Internet, after all, drives online payment, if not, you will not attach so much importance to Alipay." ā
"Not bad." Ma Yun quickly adjusted her mood, "However, even if I don't cooperate with you, I believe that Alipay still has no opponent in the field of third-party payment!" ā
Lu Yang smiled slightly: "If it's Huaxia, maybe Alipay doesn't have a challenger for the time being, but what about the international?" ā
Ma Yun's face changed.
"Huaxia's Internet electronics industry is developing rapidly, but this is based on the Huaxia market. If we compete in technology and competitiveness, there is still a big gap between Chinese enterprises and European and American enterprises. It's like a thousand degrees and Google. Google entered China three years ago, and if it weren't for the official intervention, I'm afraid that Qiandu would have been surpassed by Google. Lu Yang changed the topic and said, "In my opinion, Google may not stay in China for long." ā
Speaking of thousands of degrees, Ma Yun was a little disdainful.
"At today's meeting, it has been hinted that it will take action against Google, and behind this, Li Yanhong is afraid that he has put a lot of thought into it." Ma Yun said.
"Yes, but it's no wonder he would do this, there are really few domestic companies that can compete head-on with those giants in the United States." Lu Yang sighed.
"Qiandu can't do it, it doesn't mean Ali can't, Taobao defeated eBay head-on!" Ma Yun said.
"I admit this, but in the Chinese market, Taobao can beat eBay, but what about entering the international market?" Lu Yang Road.
"To put it bluntly, in terms of technology and competitiveness, Tianxin Technology is unmatched in China and is also a leader in the world." Lu Yang continued, "Take 'Star 1' as an example, it really entered the international market in March this year, and up to now, the sales volume of 'Star 1' in Japan, South Korea and Europe has reached 5 million. Although this sales are not as good as Apple's iPhones, it is a non-war crime. ā
"I personally express my admiration for the achievements of Tianxin Technology." Ma Yun said cautiously.
"Not only that, but we will launch a new tablet at the end of the year, which will be available globally at the same time. In addition, the smart operating system will also be authorized abroad in the second half of the year, and the smart alliance will go abroad and officially start global competition with Android. If Mr. Ma wants to go abroad, Tianxin Technology is your best choice. ā
Ma Yun weighed the pros and cons in her heart and shook her head: "Mr. Lu, I won't sell Alipay." ā
Lu Yang said: "Mr. Ma, you misunderstood, I didn't want to buy Alipay, but to buy shares." It's like JD.com, that's the principle of how I do business. ā
"Stake? Mr. Lu, the ownership of Alipay is in Ali, and you want to buy shares, unless you buy shares in Ali. Ma Yun was noncommittal.
Lu Yang said: "I have no interest in Ali. If Mr. Ma wants to cooperate, it is better to separate Alipay separately, and it is best to transfer it to Mr. Ma's personal name. After all, Ali has a considerable share control in the hands of foreign capital, while China is quite wary of foreign investment in finance. ā
What Lu Yang said, Ma Yun has been doing for a long time. Last year, Yahoo's Yang Zhiyuan asked Ma Yun to dispose of Alipay, and Masayoshi Son, another shareholder of Alibaba Group, was not interested in Alipay, and Ma Yun took this opportunity to take full control of Alipay.
"I will consider Mr. Lu's construction." Ma Yun leaned back on the sofa, "If the two sides cooperate, how many shares does Mr. Lu want?" ā
"20 to 30 percent." Lu Yang said without hesitation, "I have no interest in holding Alipay, on the contrary, I am very optimistic about the development of Alipay in the hands of Mr. Ma." The reason for the shareholding is to ensure the interests of Tianxin Technology in the cooperation, and there is no intention of seeking Alipay. In fact, with the strength of Tianxin Technology, we are fully able to develop third-party payment software by ourselves. ā
Hearing Lu Yang's assurance, Ma Yun also relieved herself and began to consider the feasibility of cooperation. The two tacitly toasted, and the topic shifted elsewhere. Everyone knows in their hearts that the intention of cooperation has been reached, and the specific matters will be a matter for the future.
"After getting to know Mr. Lu, I know what a hero is a teenager." Ma Yun couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "At your age, I just graduated from Hangzhou Normal School, and I'm still a stupid boy who doesn't know anything." By the way, has Mr. Lu considered listing the company? ā
"I don't have this plan yet, but maybe in the future."
Lu Yang was going to ask Ma Yun about the listing, and several people came over.
"Old Ma, I said why I couldn't find you, I was hiding here."
Ma Yun got up with a smile: "Mr. Li, I want to congratulate you this time, as soon as Google leaves, China will be dominated by a thousand degrees." ā
The person who came was Li Yanhong of Qiandu Company.
Lu Yang followed and got up, Li Yanhong he naturally knew, although he had not dealt with him personally.
The three of them sat down, the penguin's horse painted vines, and Yang Yuanqing of Lenovo also sat down. Inadvertently, several major domestic Internet electronics giants gathered together.
Except for Lu Yang, the four of them are very familiar, after all, they have all worked hard in the industry for decades, and they are characters of the same level, and meeting is always indispensable.
"It used to be a few of us together, but today there is finally a new face, come, everyone welcomes Mr. Lu, do one!" Ma Yun took the lead in mentioning yƬ.
"Mr. Ma is polite, you are all my predecessors, I should respect you." Lu Yang said modestly.
"What seniors and juniors, we don't care about seniority here." Yang Yuanqing said with a smile.
"Not bad." Horse painting vine road.
Ma Yun said: "In the past, I thought that I was young when I got to this stage in business, but as soon as Mr. Lu came, I realized that this was a complete illusion. ā
"Old Ma, don't talk about you, I also feel old." Yang Yuanqing said with a smile.
Ma Yun said: "Nonsense, we are both the same age......
The atmosphere of this kind of drinking party is not bad, and the five people are not restrained when they chat. When he was talking a lot, Lu Yang was listening to others. If you want to talk about his status in the industry, he may not be weaker than a few people, but in terms of qualifications and experience, Lu Yang can't compare with others at all.
At the end of the reception, it was almost ten o'clock, and everyone left each other's business cards, shook hands and left. Seeing that the time was late, Lu Yang found a hotel nearby to stay, accompanied by his new driver and bodyguard Li Zirui.
The next day, Lu Yang went to the branch of Tianxin Technology in Beijing. At the beginning, for the research and development of "Starry Sky 1", Lu Yang transferred all the employees of the Beijing branch to Fuhai, leaving only the sales department. Later, Chen Mingli left Tianxin Technology, and most of these people followed him back to the capital.
Today's Tianxin Technology Beijing Branch is no longer in the grand past, with only more than 30 people.
