February 28th.

Night.

The last day of February.

Zhang Sheng saw the news that [Hand in Hand] had reached the top.

He saw 15 million registrations, and he also saw the daily active users of [Hand in Hand].

The [Thousand Regiment War] in this world burns money more crazily than the [Thousand Regiment War] in the original world......

However, this big battle has given him a lot of benefits!

At least, in just ten days, the [Apple 4S] mobile phone was sold to 130,000 units, ranking first in the list of domestic mobile phones.

"Knock knock".

Just as Zhang Sheng was browsing the data, there was a knock at the door of the office.

"Come in!"

Zhang Sheng saw Li Zongyao walk in.

"Mr. Li, sit!"

When Li Zongyao sat down, Zhang Sheng chatted with Li Zongyao about his arrangements for the [Blueberry Phone].

"Mr. Li, I will license the core technology of [Apple 4], including the appearance patent, to [Blueberry mobile phone] in the future, the mobile phone market is still very large, and I have a unique sales channel behind ......"

"Mr. Zhang, I came here today to talk to you about this......" Li Zongyao looked at Zhang Sheng and interrupted Zhang Sheng's words.

Zhang Sheng frowned slightly, and when he saw Li Zongyao's expression, Zhang Sheng narrowed his eyes, still smiling: "Mr. Li, what are you talking to me about?" ”

"I just received a call from Pang Lei, the capital behind [Hand in Hand], [Hongsen Capital]...... Guess what Pang Lei said? ”

"Say what?"

He said that his next goal is to send [Honeycomb Delivery], and he is willing to cooperate with my [Lainiao Takeaway] with 15 million users of [Hand in Hand]...... He is still in charge of group buying, and we [Lainiao Takeaway] are in charge of offline, and the two sides will open up channels and communicate with each other for ......" Li Zongyao stared at Zhang Sheng.

The smile on Zhang Sheng's face gradually disappeared, and he just stared at Li Zongyao without saying a word.

"We can all foresee that the next takeaway war is definitely an extension of the [group buying war], and it is also the key channel that our capital is staring at...... In addition to Yanjing, our market share in major cities in China is no longer inferior to your [Honeycomb Pole Delivery]! ”

"......" Zhang Sheng was still silent, and the hand that made the tea was slightly lowered.

"[Hand in Hand] is currently the boss in the field of group buying, and has firmly controlled 15 million users, among these 15 million users, Yanjing users account for a large proportion, as long as the two of us become one, even if your [Hive Pole Delivery] has the first opportunity, but, under the siege of the two, it is only a matter of time before you withdraw from the stage......" Li Zongyao stared at Zhang Sheng silently.

Zhang Sheng has already sat on the table with half a foot, but the other half of his foot is still hanging in the air.

Half a foot, wanting to sit at the table without help is simply unrealistic.

"Mr. Li, what do you want?" After Zhang Sheng listened, he was silent for a long time, and finally opened his mouth to stare at Li Zongyao.

"Mr. Zhang, you have always wanted to exchange shares with me [Lainiao Takeaway], last night, I thought about it carefully, and the exchange of shares is feasible, but at present, the [Apple] series of mobile phones is obviously not enough...... Even if its sales volume is high, it is just a way for you to pave the market and pave the way for the subsequent 3.5G, or 4G era, Zhang Sheng, you are not the only smart person in this world, everyone else already knows how to go in the future...... Do you think capital will stare at your bait of those miscellaneous mobile phones? Li Zongyao's expression was slightly indifferent, and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he wanted to see through Zhang Sheng.

"What do you want?" Zhang Sheng continued to stare at Li Zongyao expressionlessly, not dodging his eyes at all.

"I spent 200 million yuan to buy 20% of the shares of [J&T Video], and at the same time, [Lainiao Takeaway] and [Honeycomb Extreme Delivery] exchanged shares, 20% for 20%, 20% for 20...... You have me, I have you, and you have two takeaways, and the takeaway market will be completely unified first! After Li Zongyao finished speaking, he stared at the expression on Zhang Sheng's face.

Zhang Sheng didn't react, but after thinking for a while, he shook his head: "What if I don't want to change?" ”

"Zhang Sheng, you are a natural businessman, these things I talked to you about are conducive to the cooperation between the two sides, if you don't change, it's very simple, I take [Lainiao Takeaway] and [Hand in Hand] cooperation, now [Hand in Hand] is huge, obviously, is the final winner of this group buying war, his next goal is to go public, split shares, and when the time comes, more continuous capital will be stationed ...... I don't want to educate you with the set of capital, but obviously, you have to face the weight of capital......" Li Zongyao sneered at the corner of his mouth: "In the previous group buying war, the capitals were busy grabbing the market, and they couldn't spare their hands to clean you up, and now I, [Hongsen Capital], and even Zheng Huateng's [Tengji Technology] and Ma Yunhua [Jiahu Technology] ...... behind."

After Li Zongyao listed a set of data, the sneer on his face was even worse: "Do you have allies in these fields?" With so much capital under pressure, can you still sit still at the table? ”

in the office.

Zhang Sheng became more and more calm.

But he didn't say a word, and seemed to be deep in thought.

Li Zongyao was not in a hurry, and even answered the call of [Hongsen Capital] Pang Lei in front of Zhang Sheng and turned on speakerphone.

On the phone, Pang Lei sincerely invited Li Zongyao to go to [Heaven and Earth] to drink beautiful tea together, Li Zongyao did not refuse, but smiled and said that he might have to wait.

The two sides seemed to be very familiar with each other on this phone call, and the guests and hosts were happy.

After hanging up the phone, Li Zongyao put down his mobile phone and stared at Zhang Sheng silently, waiting for Zhang Sheng's final reply.

"Zhang Sheng, you are very talented, I admit, you are also very powerful, if you rise for 99 years, perhaps, there will be no more Zheng Huateng's [Tengji Technology], maybe there is no search, there is no [Taozhu.com], but ...... It's a pity that you rose in 10 years, this era when the market was monopolized, along the way, I saw that you were always trying to jump up, always wanting to sit at the table, but ...... You've been born in the wrong era......"

"I have always admired you, although you have always resisted, I look at you with the eyes of juniors, but, for me, you will always be juniors, just like Zheng Xudong of our [Lainiao Takeaway]......"

"There's not much time left for you!"

"I never meant to threaten you, I just wanted to tell you that I always have your back, get to the table! Compared with Pang Lei, the old fox, I am more willing to cooperate with you, as long as we cooperate, no matter the future era of takeaway, or the next live broadcast era that may rise, we will be the best allies! ”

"You alone can't eat the market, even if you swallow it, you are a monopoly, you will be ousted sooner or later, cooperation is always the trend of the times!"

“……”

Li Zongyao is very sincere in every word.

He looked at Zhang Sheng, his eyes were always appreciative, and his voice was unprecedentedly gentle, like a senior, teaching his juniors step by step.

But......

Zhang Sheng remained silent, neither responding nor showing other expressions.

After a moment, he glanced at the time on the wall......

It's eight o'clock in the evening.

February 28 seems to be a very strange node.

The battle for group buying on the Internet is still going on, and capital is still burning money frantically......

And [Groupon] will also be listed on the NASDAQ......

Countless capitals have entered the fight, and several old Internet giants in China, such as [Taozhu.com] and [Tengji Technology], have already made a fortune from the group buying market and left, and are sharpening their knives and staring at the next [takeaway war]......

At this moment, Zhang Sheng himself is standing at the crossroads of fate, he can already play cards at the table, but if he wants to sit firmly in the real sense and not be pushed off the table by those old capitals, it depends on which side he wants to take the olive branch handed over.

At this scale, it is really impossible to support one's own forces alone and become a pole as at the beginning!

But, his hole cards are very rich!

The second hand is ticking and ticking.

About ten minutes later, Zhang Sheng looked at Li Zongyao with a smile on his face: "Mr. Li, I am very happy that you can come to see me today and talk to me openly and honestly about these things......

"Oh?" Li Zongyao felt very uncomfortable with Zhang Sheng's expression.

"But I don't like your attitude and approach." Zhang Sheng took a deep breath.

"Young people who know the times are junjie!" Li Zongyao stared at Zhang Sheng and said lightly.

"Even if I don't know the current affairs, I'm still a handsome!"

"Have you figured it out? Don't work with me? Li Zongyao's voice was very slow, and he was not in a hurry, and there was some regret in his words: "My lawyer's group purchase is at the door...... After we leave, we will go directly to the [Hand in Hand] ......"

"Let's go!"

"You! Do you really want to go your own way? ”

"I have a lot of cards, I can work with anyone! You want to fight, this time, I will fight with you! Zhang Sheng took a deep breath: "After experiencing the [Group Buying War], I see how much money [Hand in Hand] still has to be burned!" ”

"You! Well, very good! Sure enough, he is a hero out of a young man, and his courage is commendable! Li Zongyao took a deep breath, then stood up and walked towards the door without any delay.

"Bang!"

He slammed the door shut.

After they closed the door, the expression on Zhang Sheng's face became more and more calm.

After a long silence......

He pulled out his phone.

"Hey, Mr. Ma?"

“……”

"I'm Zhang Sheng!"

“……”

"Are you free the day after tomorrow? The day after tomorrow, I'll fly to Hangzhou to talk to you about something......"

“……”

"My [Qiangsheng Online Mall] and [Honeycomb Delivery] are willing to cooperate with you in the payment system, and regard [Zhilibao] as the first payment tool for my two major enterprises! Promote your [Zhilibao]! ”

“……”

When Zhang Sheng said this.

The other party's originally calm expression suddenly became serious.

After a while, he heard the other party's laughter: "Brother Zhang, when will you arrive the day after tomorrow?" ”

"Probably the day after [Groupon] went public......

"Good! Then I'll be waiting for you in Hangzhou! I've prepared the West Lake Longjing, and we'll talk about it in detail! ”

"Yes!"

…………………………

March 1.

12 noon.

The [Groupon] network on the other side of the ocean is officially listed!

But......

But there was bad news!

After the IPO, the stock price of [Groupon] did not meet expectations, with a maximum stock price of $31.14, but the market value was still $18.9 billion.

But March 2nd!

The stock price fell sharply at the open, falling below $30, and the market capitalization fell from $18.9 billion to $17 billion......

This news gave Huaxia's [Group Purchase Capital] a hard blow......

It was even more caught off guard by the [hand-in-hand network] that was preparing for listing and financing......

Shen Mingqiang, CEO of [Hand in Hand] suddenly realized that he may not be the winner!

And Pang Lei of [Hongsen Capital] behind him, seeing this data, his smile froze!

And Zhang Sheng on the other side.

With a bright smile, he knocked on Hangzhou Ma's [Jiahu Technology].

With a large pile of chips in hand, he officially sat down at the table.
