Chapter 1629 Why
After a day of running around, working hard, or just wandering around relaxedly for a day, it is indeed time to eat.
"Hey," Mr. Cai took his bag, pushed open Lao Ma's office, and called inside. He found that it was pitch dark inside, and the lights were off? He shouldn't have left?
He pressed the switch behind the door and found that Lao Ma was lying on the sofa, with his hands on his head, staring blankly out of the window. At this time, he felt that the light was getting brighter, and he quickly covered his eyes with his hands.
"Everything is fine, what's wrong with you?" Mr. Cai asked.
"Are you off work?" Lao Ma got up.
"What do you think?" Mr. Cai pointed to the night sky outside.
"You're here just in time, inform them, let's go to dinner together, and I'll treat everyone to drinks," Lao Ma began to rummage on the shelf behind the desk.
"Now?" Mr. Cai asked.
"Right now," Lao Ma finally found the information he was looking for, "What, you're not happy to buy you a drink?"
"How good is your wine?" Mr. Cai shook his head and muttered a few words, but picked up his phone and sent a group text message to everyone.
If you work behind such a passionate, sometimes emotional, non-science and engineering guy, you will often encounter this kind of thing.
More than twenty minutes later, Lao Ma and most of the Eighteen King Kong gathered in a restaurant.
Everyone is very familiar with each other. Knowing that Lao Ma has sent such an invitation, he must have something to talk about. You and I ordered a large table of dishes one by one, and also ordered some staple food, such as fried rice cakes, fried rice, soup noodles, etc. .
While joking, he stuffed himself more than half full. When everyone was holding bowls of soup, Lao Ma rolled up his sleeves and started talking about serious things.
"I'm not going to lie to you, this afternoon I was a little doubtful about life." Lao Ma's first words made everyone excited. "No way," everyone said one after another.
Everyone knows very well what happened to this boss, or rather, this teacher. Before he founded Alibaba, his experience was really rougher than that of many ordinary people.
what else can we do? Some things are given by your parents and you can't change them.
As the old saying goes, you should respect the person before you respect the person. That is wrong. In other words, before looking at the person, look at the person's face first.
Therefore, they are also very aware of the boss's ability to withstand blows, which can make him doubt his life. Would such a thing happen again?
"Actually, it's not just about doubting life. I still feel that the path we always thought was the right path is no longer true?" When Lao Ma said this, he was still holding the wine glass.
Yes, he does like to take a few sips.
Everyone looked at each other a little, what's going on? Aren’t we developing very well and thriving now?
Our members, our turnover, our influence, our growth rate..., which one of them has put those competitors far behind?
What we are taking now is the smooth road to the sky!
"How could it be?" everyone said in unison.
"I understand," Lao Ma looked at the core members and nodded, "I also checked a lot of information."
"From the perspective of the U.S. capital market, in the field of e-commerce, eBay currently ranks first with a market capitalization of US$29 billion. Like us, it is a C2C model,"
"And the former leader, Amazon, has a market capitalization of only $9.6 billion, and it's B2C,"
"This should really show again that the B2C model is no longer popular, right," Lao Ma asked everyone.
"Yes, for now, the C2C model we have chosen has incomparable advantages in many aspects, and this advantage will last for a long time," Mr. Cai said.
Everyone nodded, "Yes, yes,"
"Really?" Lao Ma looked around seriously, "Then, why is the Jiasheng Mall launched today so successful?"
Oh, it turns out to be this!
Only then did everyone suddenly realize.
"With the current total number of employees of Jiaqiang, it is not difficult for them to make all the data look good on the first day of going online," someone said.
With much inferior strength and at a relatively small cost, they took on eBay, the world-class e-commerce leader, head-on, and they have already won. Various data are also improving significantly every day, allowing them to now , indeed quite proud.
Jiasheng Mall is online today. They know it, and they also feel that Jiasheng Mall will perform well in the promotion season starting from December 12, because they have money, and they have spent so much money on promotion, and even spent a whole Two hundred million to directly subsidize... This will definitely attract many users.
It is precisely for the promotion results of that meeting that they will obviously not have any large-scale promotion activities today. Therefore, on the first day of launch, how impressive can their data be?
All employees should have been notified a long time ago to register as members or go shopping... No matter how you think about it, I feel that it is nothing to worry about.
Everyone was still drinking and eating happily, and they could understand the boss's thoughts. In any case, this was a heavyweight competitor, and strategically, they should pay attention to it.
"I hope everyone will still be so optimistic after knowing the specific data," Lao Ma said. "The number of views is 310 million; the number of registered users is more than 1.85 million; the number of transactions is over 200,000, and the cumulative amount is 51 million."
He recounted the data that had been swirling in his mind for the past few hours one by one.
Starting from 310 million times, this lively private room suddenly became quiet. When they heard the data of 1.85 million, 200,000, and 51 million, the group of people who were just happy suddenly became wooden people one by one.
They still moved, and their mouths were wide open.
Lao Ma looked at everyone's performance and took another sip of wine.
In the quiet private room, the sound of his drinking became particularly loud at this time, and then it became lively, "dong", "clang", "creak", "pa"..., like a symphony.
Someone's soup bowl fell on the table covered with a tablecloth; someone stood up too much, causing the chair to fall to the ground, rubbing against the tile floor, making a harsh creaking sound; someone's wine glass fell to the ground....
Lao Ma sighed. Today was already so difficult, and now he had to pay more for the soup bowl and wine glass. Alas!
"Impossible, how could it be possible?"
"Are you kidding?"
"This joke is not funny at all," even Mr. Cai said so.
"I called Feng Yiping at around 4 o'clock, and he told me this in person," said Lao Ma. "Do you think he would joke about such data?"
Although many people's first reaction was this, they also ruled out this possibility at the first time.
With Feng Yiping's current status and position, and the importance and queryability of these data, he would never falsify these data.
At least, he would not falsify them so outrageously.
So, they immediately focused on Lao Ma.
"My ears are very good. Besides, do you think I wouldn't verify with him when I heard him say such data?" Lao Ma said.
The private room, which was a little excited just now, became a little quiet again. Everyone whispered with the people around them, still thinking that such data was too unreliable.
The main thing is that these are really too hard to accept.
We think that our average ability is at least above average. So many of us have worked hard for 19 months and have achieved results with great effort. It seems that they can catch up in a day or two?
How is it possible? Is Forex really that great? Is it possible that everyone of them has supernatural powers like three heads and six arms?
"Is this incredible?" Lao Ma looked at the core of his team, "Then listen to something even more incredible,"
"Do you know when those data just now were collected?"
You are not, are you still coming? Are you trying to make us trample on our pride?
"I tell you, that was the data they collected as of 11:30 noon,"
This time, the room was unusually quiet. Everyone seemed to have lost the ability to speak. Their eyes reflected each other's expressions of severe surprise. When they looked at the people around them for help, they felt that when they turned their necks, they made a clicking sound.
Is it because we are too incompetent, or the vast majority of people in this industry are too incompetent, or are the people of Jiasheng too excellent?
In front of this incredible data, their former pride is so fragile.
Lao Ma looked at the scene of silence and tears with a heavy heart, "I called everyone here tonight just to ask, why?"
"It is also to let everyone think about why?"
PS: Look, whether it is early or late this week, the update is so early, why can't there be more votes?
