Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 422 International E-commerce Market

On New Year's Eve, Meng Qian stayed with his parents to watch the New Year's Eve in Jiushan as in previous years, and waited until twelve o'clock. When Meng Qian went down the mountain, Shen Jiawen was already waiting for him at the foot of the mountain.

Originally, Meng Qian asked Shen Jiawen to come up, but Shen Jiawen said that it is not appropriate to "see parents" after a day of dating.

Although Meng has not even started a relationship, he is begging his father-in-law.

It was an accident after all, and Meng Qian knew that this was Shen Jiawen's respect for her parents and expressed her understanding.

For the next two days, the two stayed in their hometown. On the third day of the Lunar New Year, Meng Qian drove back to Hangzhou, while Shen Jiawen stayed at home with her parents for a few more days before going to Hangzhou.

On the third day of the new year, almost a thousand people were working in the Dafeng Group. Some were forced to work overtime because of external attacks, and some came to work because they were bored at home. This is the benefit of respecting R\u0026D, because there are a group of people engaged in R\u0026D I really like my job.

On this day, Meng Qian met Shao Yibo again, and went to Shao Yibo's home in Hangcheng to have dinner in the evening.

On February 4th, the first day of construction after the new year, the first melon of the new year in the domestic Internet industry came. Shao Yibo resigned from all his positions in eBay and sold all his shares, and switched to Dafeng Investment, a subsidiary of Dafeng Group. Served as the general manager of Dafeng Investment.

eBay immediately caught up with the news, confirmed Shao Yibo's resignation, and announced that Microsoft Huaxia's Chief Marketing Officer Wu Shixiong would replace Shao Yibo as eBay Huaxia's CEO.

Although eBay seems to have recruited a general, but everyone knows what happened to eBay recently. Shao Yibo, the founder of eBay, resigned at this time. A Microsoft Huaxia chief operating officer cannot save the situation.

For a while, platforms such as Fengxin Circle, Zhiwu, and Official Accounts were full of bad-mouthing voices on eBay, and this round of bad-mouthing on the entire network was really not caused by the Dafeng Group, but the real trend of the times. Netizens spontaneously discussed, after all The former eBay Huaxia was broken in 2006, not to mention this life, charging issues, security issues, operational issues, everything can’t compete with Taobao, now Taobao is backed by Dafeng Group, eBay can’t even compete with Taobao for capital, what to play with.

As Meng Qian said before, Shao Yibo's departure will be the last straw. The departure of the company founder has never been a positive signal.

In the next three days, the sales volume on the eBay platform increased sharply, because everyone was anxious to use up all the red envelopes in their hands.

After three days of flashbacks, a large number of merchants began to flee, and the daily page views of users plummeted. Meng Qian also sentenced eBay to death in an internal meeting.

"Won't the three allies of eBay make a move? It's only been a month since they launched the 1 billion campaign. It's not a good thing for them if eBay goes down at this time, right?" Gu Junhui couldn't help raising his own when he heard Meng Qian say that eBay was dead. doubt.

Meng Qian was still very firm, "The so-called allies mean that you cheat a little from me, and I cheat a little from you. In the end, everyone calculates that the cheating is almost the same, and we are good friends.

What else can the other three companies get from eBay now? I am afraid that after a while, they will just avoid it. "

"And why?"

"There are still a bunch of complaints on eBay, let's file a lawsuit slowly." When Meng Qian said this, many people didn't notice that he circled the eBay in Huaxia in the book in front of him.

The failure of eBay Huaxia, in the eyes of many people, is the victory of Huaxia enterprises in the competition with international giants, but Meng Qian is still very sober. Even if eBay withdraws from the Huaxia market, it is still the number one in the world and the number one in China. Meng Qian has long been not rare.

In the afternoon, Ma Yun came to Meng Qian's office.

"Boss Ma looks pretty good."

"It's not all the blessing of dragging Mr. Meng." Ma Yun sat down relatively comfortably, "Mr. Meng is looking for me today, what's the matter?"

Meng Qian nodded, "It is basically impossible for eBay to stand up in China. What is Boss Ma's plan going forward?"

"The potential of the domestic market is still very large. Next, I plan to cooperate with logistics to stimulate the potential of the domestic market."

"Gone?"

Ma Yun looked at Meng Qian who was puzzled, and was even more puzzled, "What does Mr. Meng mean?"

"I heard that the boss of Alibaba's annual meeting this year said that he wants to become the world's largest e-commerce platform."

Ma Yun smiled, "But there is such a thing, and it will happen sooner or later."

Meng Qian shook his head, "In the past few years, the global e-commerce industry has emerged together, eBay, Amazon, Yahoo and other platforms have begun to attack the city, and the global e-commerce market has obviously entered a period of expansion. If you do not enter the game at this time, I am afraid it will be difficult in the future. .”

Meng Qian is telling the truth. Although Taobao will be one of the five largest e-commerce platforms in the world in the future, it is because the domestic market is too large, which supports Taobao's turnover. Taobao's overseas development is not very good.

Because after another ten years, these global e-commerce giants have not only completed their development, but also completed their roots in various markets.

Ma Yun is actually aware of these things, but now Taobao has too much home court advantage in beating eBay in China. If it really wants to go out, does Taobao have the ability? Ma Yun still knew it in his heart.

"So Taobao needs to develop faster in the past few years, so that after a few years, we can go out." Ma Yun is not so bragging in front of Meng Qian.

Meng Qian said in a worried tone, "Both the technology industry and the Internet industry have a characteristic. If you wait, you may lose all opportunities. Mr. Ma should take a look at this first."

Meng Qian handed Ma Yun a document on the table.

"This is the global market layout of eBay, Amazon and other platforms." Ma Yun understood at a glance, "The United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Maple Leaf Country, Germany, France, Italy, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Spain

The main overseas markets of these American companies are basically in the West. In Asia, only Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and China are their main markets. "

"The development of Dafeng Group overseas in recent years has shown me many problems in American companies. For example, in international competition, they are too authoritarian and never implement local culture. A natural barrier to the east.

Just like what Shao Yibo told me, he had to report to Whitman before he wanted to do anything. They held a meeting in the United States, and then told Shao Yibo if it was okay, but those people who sat in the office in the United States had never been to Huaxia .

Be it eBay, Microsoft, or Amazon, they all have this problem, and they haven’t realized it yet. This is our opportunity, like the branch of Dafeng Group in Neon Country, I’m slow Slow will be completely entrusted to the management of the neon country team, and the Huaxia team will assist in the participation.

In the future in the western market, our Dafeng Group will still adhere to this principle. When they lack competitiveness in the eastern market, we may be able to compete better in the west by following an open management model.

I have always believed in one thing, can you understand your own family better than others? If an enterprise cannot even decentralize power, it will not be able to play well in international competition.

In addition, this is a global survey we did before. One of Taobao’s concepts is very popular, that is, to support small and medium-sized enterprises. Most countries, like China, give more support and focus to large enterprises. Small and medium-sized enterprises It is not easy to survive anywhere, and companies such as eBay and Amazon are very fond of building high-end products recently. I think we can do the opposite.

Those farmers who can't sell agricultural products, those small factories that can't sell toys, they seem insignificant, but the market is so big that they cannot be ignored. "

Ma Yun very much agrees with Meng Qian’s point of view, but there are some realities in front of him, “I also know that the sooner the better if I want to enter the international market, but Taobao is still in the stage of burning money in China and has no profitability at all. We simply don’t have the financial ability to go out at this time.”

Meng Qian said directly, "Dafeng Group can continue to inject capital."

Ma Yun was instantly entangled. In fact, when Meng Qian proposed to engage in international competition, he began to have a faint uneasiness, whether Dafeng Group would take a fancy to Taobao. At this time, once Dafeng Group pursues investment again, its shares will definitely exceed 50%. However, Dafeng Group’s international resources are also really solid. If it can get into Dafeng Group’s car, Taobao’s international development speed will indeed be accelerated.

But the problem is that Ma Yun is a person who cares a lot about the rights of the company. Ali and Taobao are created by him alone. After finally achieving the current results, he is unwilling and unwilling to hand them over.

Therefore, Ma Yun put forward the same idea as in his previous life, AB shares, Dafeng Group can hold large shares, but Ma Yun wants the right to speak and make decisions.

Looking at Meng Qian with some anxiety, Meng Qian gave Ma Yun a smile, "Taobao belongs to Mr. Ma, of course you have to manage it and make decisions."

For Meng Qian, he never thought of taking Taobao over. It is still the same sentence. A company does everything, and it is easy to affect the whole body. In addition, in the future confrontation, Dafeng Group needs more to stand up The Huaxia enterprises have taken over all industries by themselves, and the Americans will be very happy in the future. There is only one goal, and it will only be easier to deal with.

But Meng Qian's premise is that I can support you, I don't need rights, but I want shares, I can't not take any benefits, I contribute people, efforts and money, and I want to see money in return.

Ever since, after not-so-complicated negotiations, Dafeng Group invested 2 billion more, accounting for 79% of Taobao's shares, and Ma Yun still has absolute decision-making power.

At the same time, the international competition of Huaxia E-commerce began in 2006.
