Chapter 1407 Storm Is Coming
On the evening of the 16th, Li Dong and Wang Chuanfu had dinner together.
On the morning of the 17th, Li Dong quietly met with Wang Wei of SF Express.
This low-key express delivery boss chatted with Li Dong for nearly two hours, and no one knew what they talked about.
Wang Wei, who came out of the hotel, didn't notice the surprise on his face when someone next to him saw him.
It was none other than Cheng Ping who saw Wang Wei.
Outsiders don't know Wang Wei, how could he not know him!
Back in the period when ZJS was the overlord, he even talked with SF Express about the acquisition. Of course, ZJSong acquired SF Express.
Therefore, Cheng Ping is very familiar with Wang Wei.
Seeing Wang Wei coming out of the hotel where Li Dong was staying, Cheng Ping's first feeling was that Li Dong might be about to make a big move!
Otherwise, with Li Dong's personality and Wang Wei's low profile, the two would never have had the chance to meet.
Cheng Ping watched Wang Wei's car leave, stood still for a moment, then suddenly turned and left.
I came here in a bit of a hurry this time, so I think about it when I go back, maybe a revolution in the express delivery industry is coming.
In recent years, Li Dong has been a pioneer of industry change.
Needless to say, the retail industry, B2C e-commerce is completely opened up by Li Dong, plus Internet finance, Internet +, plus the promotion of 3G mobile...
Today, when Li Dong meets Wang Wei, the two private express delivery giants meet, maybe it is for the purpose of dividing the interests of the express delivery industry.
...
Cheng Ping left, Li Dong naturally didn't know.
However, Wang Wei and Li Dong had a secret conversation, except for the specific content, many people still knew that Li Dong and Wang Wei met.
Fiyta Building.
With a troubled face, Ma Huateng looked at the several confidants in front of him and said, "Li Dong and Wang Wei met.
The outside world doesn't know what they are talking about, but I can guess a little bit.
Since Li Dong decided to attack Taobao this year, it must be all-round.
Before he said that he had obtained the support of some express delivery giants, I thought it was a lie, but now it seems that this is indeed possible.
In the field of e-commerce, express delivery is the most important link between virtual and reality.
Yuanfang Mall can make the B2C industry bigger, relying on their own logistics.
As for Taobao, because of third-party problems, it has been unable to achieve absolute control over this, or it is impossible to control it at all.
Today, Taobao relies most on SF Express and Santong Yida.
Once these people are poached away, Taobao will collapse in just one thought. "
After he finished speaking, someone answered immediately: "SF Express and Santong Yida will not compromise so easily.
You must know that Yuanfang has its own self-operated logistics system. Once Taobao is defeated, they will lose not only Taobao, but also themselves!
At that time, there will be no opponents in the distance, and there will be no control.
These people are not allowed to be rounded and flattened in the distance.
Only when there is competition can profits be maximized and there is room for survival. They should all understand this truth.
So I think the possibility that they are willing to cooperate with Yuanfang is very low..."
Ma Huateng shook his head and said: "You are talking about the distant place before, Li Dong before.
At the beginning, the giants in the retail industry thought so too.
They feel that other small and medium-sized enterprises will not compromise, and even if they compromise, it is only in name.
But when Li Dong gave them a big cake and included them in the distant system, this situation changed.
The establishment of the retail alliance, the big companies in the retail industry, who are not surprised and unbelievable.
You said, if he makes such a move again, is it possible to win over these courier giants? "
"Probably not?"
Some people were uncertain: "Yuanfang is too strong in retail, and it is also small and medium-sized enterprises that are attracted.
But this time is different, the Three Links and One Express and SF Express are not much weaker than Yuanfang, and even have a higher market share, Yuanfang relies most on e-commerce..."
Ma Huateng's eyes flickered and said: "I'm talking about e-commerce!
You should know that these companies do not all rely on e-commerce business. In fact, online shopping currently does not account for a large proportion of their overall scale.
If Li Dong wants to create a second rookie alliance, tell me, will anyone be tempted?
Of course, if you are tempted, it is impossible for the other party to abandon Taobao and choose to fully support Yuanfang.
From what I know about Li Dong, this guy must have a backhand.
Once it's time for a big war, these courier giants choose to sit on the sidelines or be neutral, which is likely to become the last straw that crushes Taobao. "
"Tony, what do you mean, Taobao must fail?"
Ma Huateng didn't speak, he lit a cigarette and started to smoke. He was so addicted to cigarettes that he didn't bother to worry too much in the company.
After taking a puff of cigarette, Ma Huateng exhaled the smoke and said: "I dare not say that I will lose, but Taobao is currently facing Yuanfang and does not have any advantage.
Famousness, users, traffic, the two are almost the same, even because of Li Dong, Yuanfang is more famous than Taobao, which was established earlier.
Today, the comparison between Taobao and Yuanfang seems to be back to the comparison between Taobao and eBay.
One is an established giant, and the other is an emerging strong player.
Finally, the result you see!
There are many reasons for eBay's failure, but internal discord and lack of funds are one of the main reasons.
Plus, there's the morale issue.
At the beginning, Taobao's morale was high, but eBay lost its soul because of Shao Yibo's dismissal.
Taobao is not like this now, but Yuanfang is now more like Taobao in the past. The morale is extremely high, and Li Dong has been built into an invincible mythical figure.
Not only the employees from far away have unconditional trust in Li Dong, but the public too!
Li Dong has a very high and strong appeal among the public, but Ma Yun currently has no sign of this.
Morale is also an extremely important part of the confrontation between the two armies.
The distance is against Taobao, and Taobao is suppressed in all directions. It is difficult for Taobao to have a chance to stand up.
Of course, Yuanfang is not focusing on the C2C field after all, and it is unlikely that it will win Taobao overnight.
If it drags on for a long time, it is very likely that Taobao will counterattack successfully..."
"Tony, what exactly do you mean?" Someone said confusedly, "Who do you think wins? It seems that you are not too sure about what you said now..."
Ma Huateng said with a headache: "Yes, I'm not sure.
From the bottom of my heart, I hope Ma Yun can win.
But the fact is that Ali has a lot of problems now, and although Yuanfang also has a lot of problems, they are all covered up by Li Dong himself, and he can still suppress them for the time being.
In this way, Taobao has a high possibility of failure, but I don't really want such a result..."
"Then cooperate with Ali!"
Immediately, someone suggested: "Now the attack from a distance is obvious, of course, it is not as big and public as before.
But the distance now is actually more terrifying than before.
In the past, Yuanfang relied entirely on its momentum to fight blitzkrieg and raids, but could not fight protracted wars.
It's different now, they have the strength to fight a protracted war.
Moreover, Li Dong is also growing at a very fast speed. If this continues, I am worried that he will win Taobao, and the next goal of the Internet industry is us. "
Ma Huateng frowned and said, "I also have this idea, but is it good for us to cooperate with Ali?"
As soon as these words came out, many people fell silent.
Yes, is there a benefit?
What benefits can Ali bring to Tencent?
For e-commerce, Tencent does not need it now, but for the payment system, can Alipay and Tenpay be integrated?
For B2B business, Tencent seems to be useless.
Industries cannot complement each other, can Ali bring other benefits?
For the time being, it seems impossible. The current Ali does not have the strength to bring them substantial help.
In the distance, it is actually similar to Ali.
But Li Dong offered a 10% stake in Yuanfang Mall, which is still exciting.
Compared with Taobao, Ma Huateng is more optimistic about Yuanfang's model. The retail industry's ecosystem has been gradually completed.
Online and offline, coupled with a huge self-operated logistics system, the value of Yuanfang Mall will definitely exceed that of Taobao.
Benefits, or more from afar.
But helping Yuanfang deal with Ali is not what Ma Huateng wants. He is in a dilemma now.
The cooperation between Tencent and Ali is not necessarily a distant opponent.
The only possibility is to slow down Li Dong's pace.
Is it worthwhile to exchange considerable profits for Li Dong to develop slowly?
While Ma Huateng was pondering, someone said in a deep voice: "If we want to sell Paipai, but not cooperate with Yuanfang, we choose to invest in Yuanfang Mall.
Let them fight by themselves, we sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
Of course, we are not inactive. Taking advantage of Li Dong's distraction, we accelerate our development.
Make all preparations, and when they hit the most intense time, we will raid the distant PP industry.
At this time, Yuanfang's energy is scattered. According to Li Dong's layout, he is more likely to continue to attack Taobao and perfect his retail unification plan.
He won, and we both profited.
If he loses, we will not lose money. He lost in the retail industry, and he is not our opponent in PP.
And the value of Yuanfang Mall will not suffer a major loss just because he can't win Taobao, and we still make money. "
"Li Dong and Ma Yun are not stupid, will they give us this chance?"
"Yes, what Li Dong wants is retail supremacy, and Ma Yun has to fight, even wishing we could stab him in the back.
There is not much overlap between our industry and Ali’s industry, and there is not much competition..."
"..."
Everyone discussed for a while, and finally looked at Ma Huateng.
Ma Huateng stubbed out the cigarette butt, and said after a while: "I'll talk about how to do it later.
But no matter how you choose, there is a premise that there will inevitably be a major conflict between us and Yuanfang's IM business in the near future!
Ladies and gentlemen, in the IM field, a hundred flowers bloomed, and we also broke through many barriers, and finally succeeded in breaking through, and only then did we have today's Tencent!
Now, the distant place wants to take our place, this is absolutely not allowed!
Therefore, no matter how we choose, in the face of threats from afar, we can only choose to take the initiative to fight.
As for Li Dong's core, he chose the mobile field.
He didn't hide it either, because he was confident and we didn't have time to prepare.
I don't know exactly how he prepared, but I know that the next round of IM wars will definitely break out in the mobile field!
Therefore, from now on, the wireless department will start to specialize immediately.
In terms of mobile, we still have old routines and old mentality, and we are not fully prepared for the arrival of the mobile Internet era.
The previous QQ mobile version has not made new breakthroughs for a long time.
On the original basis, I demand that better improvements must be made to better adapt to the development of mobile terminals.
And I think that Li Dong is not just as simple as improving the PP mobile terminal.
He is very confident, and his confidence makes me a little uneasy. Next, all departments must go all out and report to me as soon as possible if there is any progress.
Also, keep an eye on the dynamics in the distance at any time.
Although Li Dong hasn't shown any intention of going to war with us yet, it can't be ruled out that he is using blindfolds.
Everyone, from this moment on, we are in a state of preparation! "
After Ma Huateng finished speaking, his expression was serious.
In the conference room, the senior executives all nodded solemnly.
At this time, Ma Huateng said: "Sell Paipai, give up e-commerce, and travel lightly.
When necessary, we can cooperate with Ali and use QQ as the traffic entrance to help Taobao buy time.
The existence of Paipai is no longer useful to us, but instead drags down our development.
In addition, mobile video business, browser business, including a series of mobile applications, must immediately enter the process.
Today, users have higher and higher requirements, and are no longer satisfied with simple chat communication.
They hope to achieve one-click service, fool-like service.
With one account, you can chat, play games, watch videos, browse the web, and do everything they can!
This idea has been accepted by the public after the No. 1 general purpose was realized in Yuanfang.
Users far away can chat with PP with one key, watch videos with one key, shop with one key, and complete all needs with one key. This is why we are gradually being caught up.
At present, we cannot meet all needs in a decentralized manner, but we must be specialized in business. The only thing we have less than far away is shopping. This is not the key to the survival of IM! "
As soon as these words came out, everyone felt that the pressure increased greatly.
In the previous life, Tencent Video appeared in mobile browsers in 2009, and the predecessor of Tencent Maps, Soso Map, appeared in 2012.
Now, Ma Huateng is going to enter the wireless field in an all-round way, and everyone is not fully prepared, so they naturally feel that the pressure has increased.
But now, under the oppression from afar, they can't help but not change and make progress.
Everyone responded one after another, and Ma Huateng announced the end of the meeting.
After they left, Ma Huateng thought about it and called Ma Yun.
As soon as the phone call was made, Ma Huateng said: "Li Dong wants to acquire Paipai and integrate C2C platform resources, and I have already agreed."
"knew."
Ma Yun only said three words, because it was useless to say too much.
Ma Huateng is not his subordinate, and Tencent is not his subordinate organization. The other party chooses to sell Paipai, which naturally has his consideration.
Ma Yun is not yet confident enough to change Ma Huateng's decision with his three-inch tongue. )!!
