At half past nine in the evening, a Bentley parked in the garage of Nan Shufang drove out. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info "This is a traveling car......" The reporters surrounded it, only to find that it was Ma Hongtao who was alone in the car.

He opened the window, put his arm on the window and said, "I just want to go out and buy some supper, don't have to fight so much!" ”

A reporter asked in a loud voice: "Mr. Ma, as Mr. Zhou's financial officer, what do you think about Mr. Zhou's 180-degree turn to re-buy US dollar assets?" ”

Ma Hongtao pressed down the raised glass and said: "For a professional investor, no matter what the means of operation are reasonable......

The bodyguard stepped forward to pull away the reporters who were stuck in the car, and Ma Hongtao drove the Bentley quickly along the north side of Houhai towards the Bell and Drum Tower. Some of the fast-moving reporters immediately drove up to follow, but many more followed with their legs.

From here to the Bell and Drum Tower is less than a kilometer away, Ma Hongtao used to look for a parking space, they ran a little faster, and they could also catch up on what Ma Hongtao bought for supper, which was also a comfort to them.

It didn't take long for an ordinary Mercedes-Benz to drive back to Nan's study. When the reporter saw the license plate, he knew that it was a car from the tour company, and it was driven by an ordinary bodyguard, so it did not attract anyone's attention. However, when the garage door closed, Zhou You, who was lying in the back, stepped out of the car.

"Brother, you're finally back......" Seeing Zhou You get out of the car, and the rest of the women were not in the capital, Le Yao threw herself directly into Zhou You's arms. With his arms around the back of his neck, he jumped to his feet and crossed his legs around his waist. "Today's cold noodles are from my pot, and the sauce prepared by Chef Chen is so fragrant, but why are there no rice noodles in the capital? I don't like to eat noodles, I just like rice noodles. ”

"If you want to eat rice noodles, I'll send a box from Yangcheng tomorrow......," Zhou You patted her little buttocks. Come down, it's hot to death. ”

"No, no...... It's not hot when I go back to the room, you carry me back. ”

The bodyguard next to her turned a blind eye to Zhou You's intimacy with her, and Zhou You complied with her and carried her through the alleyway and into the front yard of No. 17.

There are three main rooms in the front yard, two ear rooms, three rooms in the east and west wings, and five inverted rooms, except for the main room that has been converted into a reception room, and the east and west wings and the inverted rooms are inhabited by bodyguards and nannies.

Walk along the verandah into the backyard, which is a private world for traveling. There are two rooms for children's activity and three rooms for some family and friends.

The main room is the room where Zhou You and Yan Fangqing and Gracia live, the east wing is Paris's small world, and the three west wings are the children's bedrooms. As for the back wing, it was mainly occupied by the storeroom and the bodyguards, and there was a corner door that was closed, so that no one could disturb them.

Originally, there were a few big trees and a small pond in the yard, and later Yan Fangqing planted a small garden and planted two grapes. Unfortunately, it's only July, and the grapes have just grown, so they can't be eaten at this time.

Carrying Le Yao into the main room, the two of them were tired for a while, until Ma Hongtao came back from buying supper and came over to shout for dinner, and Zhou You reluctantly let her go.

The little girl is as charming as silk, if she hadn't eaten dinner until Zhou You, I'm afraid she would have pestered Zhou You to prevent him from going out.

……

……

The spring breeze was several times overnight, and the next morning, Le Yao didn't ask anyone to send it, and drove an Audi TT back to school. However, Zhou You, escorted by a group of bodyguards, came to the Tmall headquarters near Wangjing.

After three years of development, Tmall has become the largest self-operated e-commerce company in China, and Taobao, which originally developed well in history, has developed far less than Zhouyou's previous life because of Tmall's bright or dark obstacles.

There are two main reasons for this, one is that the strength of Tmall has increased the country's crackdown on counterfeit and shoddy goods on the Internet. If any goods on the shelves are counterfeit or shoddy, they will not only be held accountable by the operator, but also by the platform.

For this reason, in the past few years, Ali has been committed to eliminating counterfeit and shoddy products and building its own brand, but has not been idle to expand its territory. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind, and the emergence of Tmall has become a mountain that Taobao can't move.

The second reason is the monopoly operation of Alipay, and the current domestic payment method mainly relies on bank online banking and Alipay. However, due to Zhouyou's good relationship with the four major banks, he signed exclusive agreements with major banks at the beginning, resulting in Ali not having bank support even if he wanted to establish his own payment channels.

Although the three-year exclusivity period is about to expire, Zhou You is now the largest individual shareholder of the Big Four, with a 5% stake in each bank, which also leads to the fact that although the Big Four banks no longer sign agreements with Zhou You, it is unlikely that others will find the opportunity to participate.

Led by the four major banks, Alipay has signed cooperation agreements with more than 100 domestic banks, and has cooperated with more than 100 banks abroad, becoming the world's largest online payment platform, which is much more beautiful than PayPal.

When the general trend has been formed, even if Ali wants to develop its own payment channels, it does not have the ability to impact Alipay's status, and Ali in the gap can only succumb to the feet of Zhou You, and also use Alipay.

However, Alipay's transactions in China have a seven-day payment period, that is, the customer pays for the goods, and it takes seven days to enter the merchant's account. During this time period, customers can refuse to pay for any quality problems or counterfeit goods, which gives a fatal blow to those unscrupulous merchants.

Therefore, although Taobao has not developed as fast as in the previous life, the security of online shopping in this life is much more formal than in the previous life.

Liu Qidong, like Zhou You, is a peasant child, with a drive and hard work that does not admit defeat, although in terms of macro vision, he has some defects, but when it comes to the spirit of hard work, there are only a handful of entrepreneurs today. In other words, his decision-making ability may be somewhat lacking, but his execution ability is almost unmatched.

Therefore, his alliance with Zhou You is more complementary than the alliance between Zhou You and Brother Xiaoma, Tmall is at the helm of Zhou You, and under his management, it has risen strongly in an unstoppable situation.

Even Wal-Mart's management is full of praise for Liu Qiaodong's execution ability, and has been seeking his help in the development of Wal-Mart's North American e-commerce.

Walmart's e-commerce empire is just on the rise, and Liu and Zhou You are also minority shareholders in the company. The two sides have accumulated countless experiences in this cooperation, and relying on this rich experience, Wal-Mart's e-commerce business has also developed much faster than in previous generations.

In the previous life, Amazon and Yibai have always occupied the top two positions of overseas e-commerce, even though Wal-Mart is the first physical store, but in terms of e-commerce, it barely entered the top five.

However, now Wal-Mart relies on their logistics network in the United States and outlets throughout North America to develop the e-commerce business in full swing, while Amazon is mainly relying on selling books, and Yibai is mainly relying on second-hand transactions, which cannot touch Wal-Mart's strong position at all.

This powerful alliance has also made retailers all over the world fearful, and Carrefour, Europe's largest retailer, can't wait to cooperate with Tmall to create Tmall Europe, with both parties holding 50% of the shares.

At present, Tmall has been in full bloom in Asia, in addition to the mainland and Southeast Asian countries, it has also entered the Japanese and South Korean markets, but due to the closed commercial protection of these two countries, the current development is not so satisfactory.

Compared with these two countries, Zhouyou pays more attention to Middle Eastern countries and pays close attention to the development of Tmall in the Middle East. On the one hand, the Middle East is relatively wealthy, whether it is the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon, Israel, people here have relatively high incomes. And since there are many restrictions on local women shopping, this has also promoted the development of online shopping.

Although Tmall is not yet listed, it has become a large company with an international reputation all over the world. With the opportunity of traveling around investing in South America, Tmall has also entered major South American countries without hindrance.

"Tmall's next step is to use three years to gain a stable foothold in countries around the world. By 2010, the future of Tmall will unify the global procurement system, actively negotiate border trade contracts with various countries, and strive to sell the world's goods to the world, rather than just a closed circle as it is now. When bananas from the Philippines were sold to Norway at a low price, when rosewood from Brazil was sold to the mainland at a low price, and when small goods from the mainland were sold directly to American households, Tmall truly became a world-class company. ”

There was a round of warm applause from the audience, and even Zhou You applauded excitedly. Liu Qidong's words are also what he thinks in his heart, but this wish is difficult to achieve at least in the short term. Due to the restrictions of trade protection, it is difficult to export many goods directly or import them cheaply, and it is difficult to solve these trade protection disputes in a few decades.

Relying on Tmall to negotiate with countries around the world is destined to be a difficult battle. However, within a certain range, it can still be achieved within a few years.

Robson took off the simultaneous interpretation headset on his ear and whispered with a smile: "Liu's speech is very encouraging, and I personally believe that the United States and the mainland, as the world's two largest single markets, should speed up negotiations in this regard." ”

Zhou You nodded and said: "Recently, my relationship with the United States has been tense, so it may be difficult to get the consent of the United States government. As for the mainland, I am confident that most of the obstacles will be removed. ”

Robson nodded and said: "The United States is working hard by Wal-Mart, hoping to make most of the goods traded online between China and the United States interoperable within three years." ”

Zhou You shook his head and smiled without speaking, don't say three years, it's ten years, and the range of goods that are exchanged is probably not satisfactory. As the world's largest factory in the world, the mainland's goods are loved and hated by almost everyone in the world. I love the cheapness and practicality of mainland goods, and I hate the strong impact on my country's economy.

The status of the mainland in the world is equivalent to that of Germany in the European Union. In the absence of the EU, German goods want to enter other countries, there is a certain amount of taxes, in this case, most of the enterprises in southern European countries can still be supported, but after the establishment of the EU, German goods directly impact the industries of other European countries.

When the economic situation is good, the problem is not big now, but the impact of the subprime mortgage crisis will continue to have an impact, and by 2009, almost all the southern European countries can not sustain it, because the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States has brought about a credit crisis that has a significant impact on Europe, and most countries in Europe are about to go bankrupt.

Therefore, although the Chinese people have always longed for globalization and internationalization, none of the truly developed countries really aspire to economic globalization.

Since 2015, the United States has been claiming that it wants to revive industry and increase jobs, which is the strongest opposition to economic globalization. As for the European countries, one Germany will make them complain, Britain will leave the European Union, and other countries will ask Germany to increase aid. If the economy is truly globalized and the mainland participates, I am afraid that most developed countries will not be able to hold on.

Therefore, economic globalization was originally a strategy of developed countries to exploit the underdeveloped regions. When you really want to rush to eat, it is impossible for developed countries to allow it.

The more Liu Qidong spoke on stage, the more excited he became, and he turned the topic to the Internet of Things. "Just three days ago, Apple launched the fourth generation of smart phones, which will become a cross-era mobile phone, which connects personal terminals, using the Internet, with every corner of the world, which will create a free trading system on the Internet for us in the future. We no longer need to be confined to the home or office, we only need a mobile phone to complete the one-stop service of shopping and payment. Under the guidance of Mr. Zhou You, we have established a comprehensive mobile phone service network, and I am sure that in the future, wireless services will become another important engine for Tmall's business......"

On the contrary, Robson is not too sensitive to this kind of technological information, and only after listening to Liu Qiaodong's words did he know that Apple had launched a new mobile phone, he turned around and asked Zhou You: "Does Apple's mobile phone really have such a big effect?" ”

Zhou You handed him the customized version of the Apple mobile phone in his hand, opened the mobile phone, directly received an email, and entered the APP system of Tmall and Alipay, and introduced him to him.

This is an Apple mobile phone, a cross-era product that has created a wireless network era. From now on, Zhou You has returned to that familiar era, only a mobile phone is needed, you can watch the news online, play games, shop, pay, and no longer need to be confined to the front of the computer to complete the daily office.

Putting the mobile phone back in his pocket, Zhou You sighed: "Starting from today, the Internet era will enter a new page, and as a witness who has experienced this period of history, I will always remember today in the future." ”
