Chapter 1825 The Aggrieved Old Horse
Later, in China, although there was no conclusion, or fair conclusion, there were two entrepreneurs who were often compared.
One of them was, of course, Lao Ma, who was smiling at the side, but probably a little bitter in his heart.
The other was Ren Zhengfei, the CEO of Huawei, another successful international company in China.
It is not easy to tell who is better, but if you want to say which of them has the most fans, there is really no suspense.
Ren Zhengfei was right, and his classic remarks were very thought-provoking, and even received praise and praise from many entrepreneurs.
But such correct, far-sighted, and far-reaching remarks are not necessarily popular, especially by young people.
For example, when everyone feels that life is good, you say that winter is coming; when everyone has just gone through untold hardships and conquered the business of the next country, and feels that the situation is not just good, but very good, you come out and say worriedly, "How long can the red flag last?"
You are right in thinking and worrying, but my friend, this is really a bit heartbreaking, don't you think?
On the other hand, Ma said, "Let there be no difficult business in the world", "Houses will be very cheap in the future"...
He said a lot of things that are worth discussing or will attract criticism.
But who will be more popular with young people? Of course, it is Ma!
The reason why Masayoshi Son is the most suitable candidate to enter RB is not because he successfully operated Yahoo, or because he withdrew from Alibaba so readily, but because of his influence in RB.
This influence is not the kind of influence in the general sense.
RB's business circle is not only closed, but also rigid, and the entrepreneurs who control them actually have the same temperament.
Just as Feng Yiping considered, the provincial capital dominated by industry, especially heavy industry, is not suitable for the survival and development of Internet companies. The closed circle and rigid situation of RB companies and entrepreneurs can make good automotive products and various electronic products before the mobile Internet era really came, but it is not suitable to operate projects such as Facebook and YouTube that are born based on the Internet.
Compared with other stereotyped entrepreneurs, Masayoshi Son, who has worked and lived in the United States, is a very charismatic and successful entrepreneur.
At this time, his image in the minds of young people in RB is somewhat similar to the image of Ma in the minds of young people in China.
Although in terms of real strength, Masayoshi Son and his SoftBank cannot be compared with those RB consortiums and the helmsmen of those consortiums, but the recognition of young people for him is very helpful for the promotion and sales of these Internet products.
Later, the reason why Twitter was so popular in RB was largely related to Masayoshi Son, an investor in Twitter, seizing every opportunity to promote it.
For example, if his company has any new preferential policies, he will release them on Twitter. As Apple's agent in RB, the latest news about Apple products such as iPhone is also released on Twitter first.
This naturally cultivated many Twitter fans.
In many aspects, young people are influenced by the older generation, such as what kind of car to buy and what kind of house to choose, but in the Internet field, this is definitely the opposite, and it must be the young people who influence the older generation.
So fundamentally speaking, all Internet-based products, at their core, are the young people who win the world.
Therefore, from this perspective, Masayoshi Son is the most suitable partner for Feng Yiping to enter RB.
He will not simply give up RB's business like Nokia. Just kidding, there are not many opportunities to make money from RB people. How can such a good opportunity be missed?
"So, let's talk while eating next?" Feng Yiping invited Masayoshi Son.
"Okay, see you in the restaurant later," Masayoshi Son was obviously very satisfied with Feng Yiping's attitude.
This trip to China can be said to be as perfect as he expected.
…………
Old Ma naturally went upstairs with Feng Yiping, "We got the news that he seems to be contacting other domestic e-commerce companies this time," Old Ma said.
Feng Yiping was stunned for a moment, and looked back at the suite behind. Haha, this is what a person like Masayoshi Son should look like.
"From a business perspective, this is actually not incomprehensible, what do you think?"
No matter when, with funds, there is no worry about not finding projects to invest in.
It doesn't matter if you can't invest in Alibaba, there are other e-commerce companies in China at this time.
It's just that Masayoshi Son couldn't know the pattern of domestic e-commerce development later, "Even if he invests all the profits from this incident, we don't have anything to worry about, right?" Feng Yiping said, putting his arm around Old Ma's shoulder.
"Of course I have confidence," Old Ma said immediately.
Although he said this with full confidence, Feng Yiping could still see the little unhappiness hidden under his eyebrows.
Haha, even a great old Ma can be petty like this.
It's the New Year, and there will be two important signing ceremonies next. Feng Yiping decided to help him eliminate such unhappiness.
"Look," as soon as he got to his penthouse suite, he pushed Lao Ma to sit on the sofa, "First of all, we all understand that Mr. Sun can agree to withdraw from Alibaba so readily, not just because of the reason he mentioned before,"
Feng Yiping listened to what Masayoshi Son said and felt it was good, but it did not mean that he would believe it completely.
If that were the case, he would not be honest, he would be simple-minded, he would be stupid.
He naturally had his own analysis.
"They must have weighed the possible consequences of not accepting the conditions we proposed and completely turning against us," Feng Yiping said.
"You know better than me how many companies he has invested in China, right? He should be familiar with my temper. If he wants to make things difficult for us in Alibaba, of course, it is mainly because of me who has a bad temper," Feng Yiping smiled and patted Lao Ma on the shoulder again.
"Don't I have a temper?" Lao Ma said.
"Yes, yes, you must have it too. So, if he makes things difficult for us with Alibaba, we have to be prepared to make things difficult for all the companies he has invested in. Then, isn't it obvious what choice to make?"
Old Ma's face obviously looked much better.
Just now, when Feng Yiping and Masayoshi Son were acting like good brothers, Old Ma actually felt a little uncomfortable.
Masayoshi Son agreed to withdraw from Alibaba under the current conditions, clearing the obstacles for the merger of Jiasheng Mall and Alibaba. Old Ma was naturally happy.
However, Masayoshi Son agreed to withdraw from Alibaba under the current conditions because he wanted to cooperate with Feng Yiping on the operation of Facebook and YouTube in RB, which inevitably made Old Ma feel a little uncomfortable.
In your opinion, the benefits that my Alibaba's future development can bring you are not as good as the benefits that Facebook and YouTube's operation in RB can bring you?
Do you think that my Alibaba's future development can bring you?
How can Old Ma, who is so proud, accept such a reason?
Feng Yiping's explanation was a good way to put several layers of gold on his face, and he felt much more comfortable.
"If he really disagrees, you won't really do that, will you?" he asked.
"Hehe, if they don't agree to do that, he should not only be prepared that I will not get along with all the companies he invested in China, but also be prepared that I will not get along with the companies he invested in at least in the United States," Feng Yiping said his original plan.
The reason why he told Lao Ma so confidently that if he really had to come forward, he would definitely be able to solve this matter was because of his plan.
He knew very well that after knowing his plan, Masayoshi Son would make a wise choice. Now is not the time when Masayoshi Son could be so famous in 2000. Feng Yiping, who has launched a series of popular products and has excellent management in many fields, has now surpassed Masayoshi Son in terms of strength and influence.
As long as he wants to do it, the resources he can mobilize are also stronger than Masayoshi Son.
When he said this, he crossed his legs and brushed off the non-existent dust on his pants with his hands. In an instant, even Lao Ma felt that this brother was so handsome at this moment!
However, Lao Ma likes such a domineering and decisive partner to his opponent.
Originally, he had felt that Feng Yiping was a bit weak, but now he realized that his worries were quite excessive.
Feng Yiping didn't know that at this moment, in another suite downstairs, his assistant Wu Qian was working hard alone, "Now is really not the best time to meet Mr. Feng,"
ps: I made it before 9 o'clock, so I can ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket!
