Chapter 252: Meeting Jack Ma

The meeting ended with a simple meeting, where the news of the logo was not only exciting, but also a way for the company and the studio to work together to do the rest.

Zhang Long's team has also developed an e-commerce website, although the scale is far less than Taobao, but the Double 11 event, Taobao can be promoted, and this e-commerce website can still be promoted.

And the popularity of Double 11 can obviously be exploited.

At present, the wave is still centered on the college student group, so the traffic of college students, if the drainage is in place, can also bring huge economic benefits.

Therefore, Zhang Long's team needs the studio to give some cooperation in the operation of the e-commerce website to attract the traffic of the student group.

At the end of the meeting, the relevant work began to be implemented.

Zhang Long, Zhou Yan also had a separate meeting with Gu Yuanzhong.

"What are your company's plans regarding trademarks?" Gu Yuanzhong couldn't help but ask.

"Sold to Ali in exchange for Alibaba's support for the WeChat project." Zhou Yan didn't hide it from Gu Yuanzhong this time.

Gu Yuanzhong was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, he smiled helplessly: "Isn't this what we 360 thought at the time, but at that time, we wanted to buy the trademark of Chalang in exchange for Ali's support for 360." ”

"Before, Double 11 did not start, and there was no public data, but now the results of Double 11 are out, and the importance of the Double 11 trademark to Ali is self-evident." Zhang Long said with a smile.

Before the arrival of Double 11, Ali would not disclose the data, and now in order to further promote the popularity, the data of Ali's Taobao official website has always been public, including the number of orders placed per second.

And all of this implies that Double 11 will be a trump card for Ali to dominate the e-commerce market in the future.

But now this trump card is not complete, and a vital part has fallen into the hands of Chalang Technology.

Gu Yuanzhong also thought that the 'trump card' would be completed, but he couldn't imagine what the equal benefits would be in exchange.

It wasn't until Zhulang and 360 cooperated to create Weichat Technology and began to operate WeChat's project.

Gu Yuanzhong also gradually had his own conjecture, and now the conjecture has been verified.

Chamo clearly wants to use this trump card in exchange for Ali's support for WeChat, a mobile instant messaging software.

It's a bright card!

"Is there anything 360 needs to do?" Gu Yuanzhong couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Long smiled and waved his hand: "No, the next negotiation will only be with Ali, but 360 must be prepared to dilute a certain amount of equity." ”

Gu Yuanzhong hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, "How many shares do you think is appropriate to dilute?" ”

Giving up a piece of fat in exchange for the stability of the entire mobile instant messaging market is obviously a cost-effective deal, and Gu Yuanzhong will not raise any objections.

"I'll have to talk to someone from Ali's side." Zhou Yan said with a smile.

He didn't say anything to death.

In fact, he didn't think dilution was a good idea, and it was his idea to let 360 sell part of its equity to Ali.

Weichat Technology Company is not only a test of cooperation with 360 Company, but a basic guarantee for the future of Wave Chalang, and there can be no mistakes, so it must ensure 67% absolute control.

However, Zhou Yan didn't say it explicitly, because he knew that Gu Yuanzhong was unlikely to agree.

Instead of making an ugly fuss now, it is better for the three parties to go to the table together and let 360 back down.

Gu Yuanzhong didn't say anything more, and this brief meeting was almost over.

Next, just wait for the results, and what can be talked about with Ali, Zhou Yan also has some expectations.

When Zhou Yan returned to the office, Secretary Qiao was already in the office.

She was wearing a black three-quarter sleeve dress, a somewhat simple crystal necklace, and two snow-white legs casually together, quiet and a little intellectual and beautiful.

This is the first time Zhou Yan has seen Qiao Shishi wearing a black dress, with an elegant and black style, and there is an indescribable sense of beauty.

Like a noble black swan.

Her eyes were beautiful, her long eyelashes were half-curled, and her clear, bright eyes were slightly constricted and focused on the papers.

Hearing the movement, Secretary Qiao glanced up at Zhou Yan.

"I'm back."

Seeing Zhou Yan, Qiao Shishi was obviously a little happy, she got up from Zhou Yan's seat, put down the documents and came to Zhou Yan, and helped him take off his coat and hang it on the hanger on the side.

"How does it feel to take over the studio these days?"

Zhou Yan enjoyed some of the tempting fragrance of Secretary Qiao's approach, and asked with a smile.

"It's very tired, I didn't know Xiaowan would be so tired before."

Qiao Shishi said softly, as if there was a little complaint and self-blame in her tone.

"It's not going to be easy."

Zhou Yan gently hugged Qiao Shishi, he leaned over her shoulder and neck and sniffed it, and the fragrance was even more intoxicating.

Very charming senior sister.。

Feeling Zhou Yan's restlessness, Qiao Shishi glanced at Zhou Yan with disgust, pushed Zhou Yan away, and after the door was locked, she breathed a sigh of relief, and her tone was even more disgusted, "I'm not afraid of others seeing it." ”

Zhou Yan smiled, went to open the door lock again, and said to Qiao Shishi: "Don't lock the door in broad daylight, senior sister and I can sleep at night." ”

"What are you shouting, senior sister." Qiao Shishi lowered her head and muttered in a low voice.

"It's emotional." Zhou Yan said with a faceless smile.

"If the junior thinks about those things at night, he is not allowed to bully the senior sister during work hours." Qiao Shishi snorted lightly and said.

"Yes, let's start with one."

Zhou Yan kissed him fiercely.

Qiao Shishi's eyes widened, and in the end, she could only gently pat Zhou Yan's back with her hand to show resistance.

After a long time, she parted, and she said with disgust, "I didn't lock the door." ”

Zhou Yanxin said that this is exciting, but he can't play too much.

After all, if you have to do serious things later, it is really difficult to go through the process without locking the door.

The door was still locked.

As Zhou Yan sat on the office chair, Secretary Qiao also leaned over.

The black skirt opened slightly, and a voice quickly came from the office.

...

As Zhou Yan's assistant and secretary, it is obviously a normal thing to work in the president's office.

However, Secretary Qiao has also been a tune a day in the past two days, from dresses to jeans, and then...

And with the full cooperation of Secretary Qiao, Zhou Yan can do his work easily, and his learning efficiency has improved a lot just a lot, and he has gained the eyes of many senior sisters.

On the third day of Double 11, all the sales data of Taobao Double 11 was also sent to the headquarters of Hangzhou Ali Group.

The conference rooms in the headquarters were full of jubilation.

Obviously, the data of Double 11 made them very excited.

However, a middle-aged man sitting in the main seat was a little thin and had small eyes, and his face was not very good-looking.

Sensing this person's face, the conference room gradually fell silent.

All waiting for him to speak.

He put down the documents in his hand, and after everyone's eyes were gathered, he slowly spoke: "The trademark is still in the hands of a small company, there is nothing to be happy about." ”

This is the truth, and the lively atmosphere is cold again.

"Mr. Ma, the trademark of Double 11 is very important, we must get it in our hands, if the company is not satisfied with the conditions we offered, we can increase the price." One of the leaders spoke.

"And what if you still refuse?" Mr. Ma, who had very small eyes, asked with a smile.

The person in charge fell silent.

In the face of a company that does not let go, whether it is negotiation or targeting, it seems to be a bit futile.

At this time, a female person in charge glanced at her mobile phone and said, "Mr. Ma, I just got the news that the small company agreed to sell us the trademark, but you need to go over to negotiate in person." ”

"Let me talk?"

The owner of the voice was obviously stunned for a moment.

....

In a café in Hongda,

Someone chartered the venue today.

However, no one knows who chartered the scene, and the boss did not disclose it.

A BMW stopped in front of the door, and a thin but energetic middle-aged man stepped down and entered the café accompanied by an assistant.

Soon, he saw a young man sitting at the end of the café.

"You're going to talk to me personally?"

Zhou Yan was originally reading the newspaper, and when he saw someone coming, he was also a little surprised.

This character, whom he had met many times in Hangzhou but appeared more in TV interviews, now appeared in a café on the campus of Hong University to meet him.

The famous teacher Ma in front of him, the middle-aged man who said that money is the easiest thing in the world to get, appeared in front of him.

At this time, Mr. Ma was very young compared to later generations, and his skin was whiter, but the shrewdness in his small eyes had not changed at all.

For this invitation, Zhou Yan did not have any confidence.

After all, compared to the behemoth of Ali, Chalang is a little smaller.

The bargaining chip that can be used for negotiation is the Double 11 trademark that Ali attaches great importance to.

"You're young." This was the first thing Mr. Ma said to Zhou Yan.

"Thank you." Zhou Yan smiled.

"I was still in a junior college when I was the same age as you, and I was not as good as you." Mr. Ma's second sentence.

"At that time, those who could go to college were also cattle." Zhou Yan said.

"Let's talk about trademarks, listen to you, only if I come over, will sell the trademark to me."

"That's right."

Zhou Yan nodded and took out a document that had been prepared, "This is a trademark transfer contract, Mr. Ma can take a look at it." ”

Mr. Ma took the contract and looked at it, "I signed this contract, and the trademark is Alibaba's?" ”

"Well, there are conditions, though."

Zhou Yan said: "I can give the trademark to your company, but there is a project, I hope Mr. Ma can consider it." ”

Zhou Yan took out another document, about WeChat.

Jackma was a little more interested at this time, he put down the contract, picked up the document and looked at it again, narrowed his already small eyes, looked at Zhou Yan, and his tone was a little surprised, "Instant messaging on the mobile terminal." ”

"That's right, I hope Ali can partner with our Weichat Technology." Zhou Yan said.

Jackma smiled: "Shield? ”

"It's both a shield and a partner." Zhou Yan said.

"Do you think you can grab the penguin market with just a mobile phone software that plagiarizes QQ?" Jack Ma asked with a smile.

"So I need Mr. Ma's help." Zhou Yan shrugged his shoulders.

Jackma shook his head and didn't say anything more, but when he got up, he picked up the document about WeChat, "I won't reply to you anytime soon." ”

"Okay."

Jackma was about to leave, and Zhou Yan said, "Mr. Ma wait a minute." ”

"What's wrong?" Jack Ma stopped.

"Can I take a picture with you?" Zhou Yan asked.

Jackma smiled and shook his head: "My group photo is not worth much. ”

"Is that okay?"

"Yes."

Zhou Yan heard Jackma's reply and beckoned to the boss next to him: "Boss, help me take a photo with my friend." ”

The boss answered and took out a camera that seemed to be prepared in advance, Mr. Ma obviously pulled his mouth at this time, but the photo was very smooth, and both of them were smiling and looking at the camera.

"I'll get back to you in two days."

Jack Ma left with mixed feelings.

...

Two days later, Yang Mingyuan, the direct person in charge of Ali's e-commerce project, came to Weichat Technology Company.

After signing the share confirmation contract with 360 and Zhulang, Yang Mingyuan left with the trademark transfer contract.

"It's finished."

In the conference room, Zhou Yan, Zhang Long, and Gu Yuanzhong all held a document in their hands.

Gu Yuanzhong looked at the two people who were laughing excitedly with some indignation: "Didn't you think about it early in the morning and let 360 sell shares to Ali?" ”

Zhou Yan shrugged his shoulders: "The shares of Chalang can't be moved, and the shares of 360 can only be moved." ”

"Did you already know that 360 would compromise?" There was helplessness in Gu Yuanzhong's tone.

"It's good to exchange shares for allies." Zhou Yan said with a smile.

Gu Yuanzhong sighed helplessly, he knew that what Zhou Yan said was the truth.

Neither 360 nor Chase Wave has the capital to confront the penguins head-on, and can only attract a strong ally.

And Ali was originally taken into account by 360 in the 3Q war, but now it is just a different form.

But he also knows that the 10% stake is worth it.

The WeChat project has been supported by Alibaba, and Ali's channels will also be opened to WeChat, and at the same time 50 million yuan will be injected into Weichat Technology, and ensure that the WeChat project will not be targeted by any of the three major operators, as a bargaining chip for the purchase of trademarks.

The overall result is satisfactory to all three parties, although 360 suffered a little loss, but the project has the confidence to fight against penguins, and it is still profitable.

Zhou Yan saw Mr. Ma in 2010 this time, he was a real person, he was actually a little surprised that Mr. Ma would agree to come to Hongcheng to meet, but he just mentioned it casually at that time.

Zhou Yan still admires the richest man in the future, after all, not everyone can do it if he can earn a company with a market value of 100 billion yuan with one mouth.

In his opinion, Mr. Ma is obviously much more easy-going than Brother Xiaoma, who only rejected Brother Xiaoma's intention to acquire and sweep the patent, and was targeted by Penguin the next day.

I just don't know what kind of reaction Xiao Ma would have if he knew about the WeChat project.

The penguins don't make any moves now, but Zhou Yan is really looking forward to it.
