Temasek's US$1.2 billion investment, the recognition value of eBai, and the praise of Zhou You from many powerful technology entrepreneurs in the United States have directly put CICC on the wall. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Not to mention anything else, just look at a few companies that are similar to Tmall. eBai is mainly a second-hand trading community and e-commerce, and their core is user experience. Today, Yibai's share price has exceeded $10 billion.

Amazon is even more bullish, and their stock price has been the most stable Internet company in the United States, surpassing Microsoft's stability. Although Amazon's profits are negligible or even loss-making, their stock price is more than $20 billion.

In fact, the future of this company is a template for the development of the company. However, the current tour is the opposite, directly relying on its own economic strength to develop the e-commerce business, which is also the main reason why the market is optimistic about the investment of Zhouyou.

Look at Ali again, they first invested in B2B, and then invested in C2C projects, but they didn't dare to touch B2C, don't they know the advantages of B2C projects? Of course not, there is only one main reason, and that is the lack of money.

Whether it is Amazon or Alibaba, they have given up the most profitable e-commerce project, and just built a trading platform, for no other reason than the economic strength to stock up and sell their own goods.

When they had enough money in their hands, the two companies immediately got involved in the B2C business. However, the development direction of the two companies is still slightly different, Amazon focuses on the advancement of technology, and invests a lot of capital in long-term business such as cloud services and customer adhesion.

And Ali is more used in the direct business of creating profits, which is also the main reason why Ali has been making money, but the stock price has fallen repeatedly, but Amazon has been losing money or making small profits, and the stock price has repeatedly risen.

When Alibaba first went public, its stock price was equivalent to the sum of Amazon and Yibai. But when Zhou You was reborn, Alibaba's stock price fell to the 200 billion mark, but Amazon's stock price exceeded 300 billion US dollars, which is the fundamental difference between the two companies.

Having said that, the negotiations between Ali and Yahoo are not over yet, but the rumors that Yahoo will exchange $1 billion in cash plus Yahoo China for 40 percent of Alibaba's shares have been rampant.

Even Alibaba's valuation has reached $3 billion, and it is a joke that CICC wants to use 5 billion yuan to get 30 percent of the shares. Not to mention valuing Tmall at a valuation of 50 billion, no matter how low it is, it can't be less than 40 billion!

It was not until Zhou You returned to Beijing after negotiating with Temasek and was ready to formally sign a contract with Temasek that CICC finally agreed to Zhou You's proposed valuation of 40 billion yuan, and obtained 20% of Tmall's shares at a price of 8 billion yuan.

Temasek doesn't have much opinion on this, because the company is located in the mainland, and there must be necessary concessions.

Tmall got 18 billion cash at once, but this cash was not Zhou You and Liu Qiaodong who transferred out the shares. Because most of this is for the company's future investment, Zhou You and Liu Qidong can only receive cash according to no more than three times the investment amount, and the rest of the funds must be invested in the company's development.

The things involved are very complicated, and Zhou You himself does not understand how this formula is established, but one thing is clear, that is, all the funds he has penetrated have been repaid, and he still owns 47% of the company's shares. And Liu Qidong has become a billionaire, and he also owns five percent of the company's shares.

Zhou You feels very magical, in just a few months, his assets have increased by 20 billion in name, although these 20 billion cannot be exchanged for cash, but as long as Tmall does not go bankrupt and develops smoothly, these assets will continue to rise.

The capital in October is the most beautiful season, but there is no time to see the autumn leaves in Xiangshan, and after signing contracts with CICC and Temasek, I immediately came to Pengcheng again.

Tencent's technical team here has been intensively testing the Tmall trading platform. Taking advantage of Tencent's current server base across the country, Tmall's trading platform and Tencent's game platform are the largest capacity, even if it can accommodate 300 million people at the same time, it will not go down.

In addition to putting forward some mature experience in later generations at the beginning, Zhou You requires that registration must be simple, identity binding must be strict, shopping experience must be pleasant, and the most important point is that the membership level setting must be forward-looking.

He doesn't want members to buy 100,000 yuan of goods and become the highest-level members, and then take advantage of the various discounts of high-level members to create online second-tier dealers.

Teng Xun has been tossing in the game industry for four years, and they dare not say anything else, they have rich experience in this area, and they have opened the experimental version of the website around the world, and it feels like it is not much worse than the website after more than ten years in the previous life.

Tmall will launch a trial launch on November 11, and although most of the warehouses in various places have not yet been built, many temporary warehouses have been rented. The recruitment of couriers is also going very smoothly, which fully reflects the benefits of large crowds.

Zhou You is embarrassed to take Double 11 as the day of the launch, of course, in order to create this national shopping carnival in the future. He just wants to choke Ali by the neck in all ways and go his own way, so that he has no way out.

Of course, Zhou You will not admit that this is because of resentment, but simply because of business.

There is still nearly a month left before the opening, and all aspects are in full swing to prepare. Personnel training, instrument debugging Everyone is full of confidence in the future, but in this, there is more confidence in traveling.

But this time, he didn't come to Pengcheng because of Tmall, but because of Tengxun.

It has been four years since Zhou Yu became a shareholder of Tengxun in 99 years, and Tengxun has been profitable since 2000, and it has been three years since then, which meets the conditions for listing.

For the listing, Zhou You is not in a hurry, and Brother Xiao Ma is not in a hurry, but some people are in a hurry about this matter. The most urgent is of course a group of city leaders in Pengcheng, because Tengxun's listing represents their political achievements.

Xiao Ma's father is also a leader in Pengcheng, and Xiao Ma is under tremendous pressure because of this. In the past, he always shirked the company's inadequacy, but now that he has been profitable for three consecutive years, there is no excuse.

Of course, there is another important reason that Tengxun has no money in his hands now.

In the past three years, Tencent's profit has been nearly a billion dollars, which is a huge amount of money for any company, but half of that money has been spent on Tencent's expansion.

Originally, Tengxun was very rich, and he still had $500 million in cash in his hands, but for the video website plan proposed by Zhou You, the Alipay plan, and especially the big data plan, these funds were used to buy land and expand servers across the country.

Therefore, Brother Xiao Ma is also in contact with Zhou You, wanting to put the company on the market.

However, Zhou You will definitely not let Tencent be listed in China, nor will it be listed in Hong Kong, but is ready to go directly to the United States for listing. At this point, Brother Xiao Ma has the same opinion as him, it is not a skill to make money with the money of mainlanders, it is more enjoyable to make money with the money of gringos.

But it is not easy to go public in the United States. How to divest the company's existing assets, find a third-party audit, and find banks and investment institutions to underwrite these all need to be made up with Brother Xiaoma.

This time, Zhou You finally knows how annoying it is to have endless meetings every day, but in order to make money, even if he is upset, he has to endure it.

Since the end of October, Tmall Mall has started a nationwide publicity, and there are more than five stars endorsing Tmall alone, each of which is required to be young and vibrant, which is also the image of Tmall.

Alipay has also started a new round of promotion across the country, registering to give gifts, and can directly redeem gifts on Tmall, or directly purchase with cash. Earn points for shopping, the higher the points, the more discounts. The return and replacement of shopping bags, the theft of account funds, and the promotion of Tmall P&I all kicked off directly.

On the evening of November 10, at the Beijing Workers Stadium, Tmall and Xiangnan Satellite TV cooperated to launch a Tmall song and dance party. The party not only gathered big names, but also broadcast live to the TV audience, and the scene was also interspersed with lottery links, which attracted countless people to pay attention to the launch of Tmall.

At 0:00 p.m. that night, almost all portals appeared in a prominent position on the homepage, and on several well-known navigation websites, advertisements for Tmall websites also appeared at the top.

Since it was the first day of trial operation, all major manufacturers have made great price concessions, hoping to be an instant hit on this new website.

Zhouyou does not adopt a small profit and quick sales model, because the prices on the website are already much cheaper than those in physical stores. Take a 2,000 yuan mobile phone as an example, the price of Tmall is at least more than 200 yuan cheaper than that of a physical store, so at this time, even if the price is low, it is not conspicuous.

Therefore, the lottery launched by the website, and the amount is not low, and 100 million yuan will be taken out every day for the first three days to reward all netizens. Don't think that 100 million is very little, the sensation brought by these 300 million is definitely greater than the billion in later generations, and many people have registered several accounts to make up for their luck with the quantity.

Although these funds cannot be directly exchanged into Alipay's account, they can be exchanged for goods, so many housewives who are not netizens have also joined the ranks.

It is clear to you that these people are the real online shopping mainstays, and they are more willing to spend money on shopping than those game users. But because Zhou You has not been mixed in China, although he has read a lot of introductions to these choppers on the Internet and in reports, he does not know the main direction of their procurement.

However, he also thinks that authentic cosmetics will be a major consumer item in the future.

Starting from 0:00 on the 11th, Tmall has attracted countless online shopping users, but some people are paying close attention to the data card displayed in the Tencent Building, and everyone is guessing how much sales data there is on the first day of Tmall's trial operation......
