Chapter 1643: Opening Speech
Assembly Hall.
As soon as Li Dong arrived, many people surrounded him.
Usually, everyone fights and scolds, but when it comes to the critical moment, the big guys still take care of each other a lot.
Ma Yun and Li Dongdou are considered powerful, but at this time they still asked: "Do you need help?"
Ma Huateng also said: "I still have some funds here, if you don't fight against me in the future, I can consider giving you a hand."
When they said this, they spoke playfully, but outsiders didn't know whether what they said was true or not.
But Li Dong knew that if he really wanted to speak, these people would bleed to some extent.
But at this time, Li Dong naturally didn't need these things, he laughed and said, "What's the matter, you still feel sorry for me?
Do you think my financing must fail? "
Upon hearing this, Ma Yun returned to his usual posture, and said contemptuously: "Look, the fox's tail is exposed.
I just said, this guy has a good set of words.
Listen, you are sure, everyone should prepare when you go back, and if you want to do something wrong, do it! "
Everyone burst into laughter immediately, but the seriousness in their hearts was also true.
The 300 billion financing is likely to be successful!
If Li Dong was not sure, he might not be so indifferent at this time.
The raised funds of less than 2 billion on the first day obviously did not disappoint Li Dong, and looking at the crowd from afar, it seemed that they were not worried about it.
Now, what Ma Yun said as a joke is actually not a joke.
It's time to get ready!
...
The matter of financing from afar was suppressed by everyone.
Today, after all, is not the time to talk about these things.
Soon, the evening summit forum began.
With the meeting moderator on stage,
The audience returned to silence.
The host gave a brief overview of the theme of this summit. The theme is very simple, rising in the crisis.
In 2009, the impact of the financial crisis has not yet passed.
The saying of cold winter has not completely disappeared.
Before the listing of Weibo, there were discussions at home and abroad, whether the listing of Weibo means the end of winter and the beginning of spring?
Obviously, in everyone's eyes, winter still exists.
The Huashan summit this time, although the outside world said it was fighting for the first place in the world, when everyone was joking, Li Dong and the others also said the same.
But in fact, the theme of the meeting is to discuss how to deal with the immediate crisis and the way forward.
At the beginning of the meeting, the host invited Li Dong to give an opening speech.
This was decided long ago, and Li Dong had declined it before. After all, Ma Yun was the organizer of this summit.
But this time Ma Yun insisted that he go up and talk about it first, but Li Dong finally refused and agreed.
...
With Li Dong on stage.
Everyone in the audience began to discuss in low voices, wondering what Li Dong would fire again this time.
Discussions are discussions, and when Li Dong really came on stage, the audience quickly quieted down.
"All friends present, leaders, good evening!
This time, I would like to thank Mr. Ma Yun for giving me this opportunity. I took the opportunity to say a few words on stage during the opening ceremony.
After all, everyone's food and drink are provided by the old horse, and the opportunity to show off should have been given to the old horse..."
"Hahaha……"
There was a burst of laughter from the audience, and Ma Yun said helplessly: "Talk about something useful. If it inspires us, it will be worthwhile. Don't just talk about these useless things."
Li Dong smiled and said: "This is reasonable, okay, then I will stop rambling, and just say a few words.
There is no theme tonight, so I will just talk about it casually, everyone can listen to it casually, and it doesn't matter what you say. "
"Let's talk about the cold winter that is still being discussed.
This topic has almost never stopped from last year to now, and the saying that the cold winter is coming has been mentioned time and time again.
I have actually said many times about this aspect, but today, I still want to say a few more words.
Cold winter, for big companies, is not actually winter, but an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Especially for large companies in China, it is an opportunity to catch up! "
Li Dong said with a serious face: "Everyone, some IT companies on site, including industrial companies, during the period from 2008 to 2009, many companies have achieved achievements that were difficult to achieve in the past!
Here in the distance, I won't say anything, everyone should see it.
In addition, such as Ali, Baidu, 360, Sina... These IT companies have made breakthroughs beyond the past.
Before the financial crisis came, China's IT industry was actually inferior to that of European and American countries.
Google, Amazon, Yahoo, Facebook...
These IT companies are the international mainstream and the vane of global IT companies.
Before 2008, IT companies in Huaxia could not go out, be famous, or develop.
But now, let's take a look again?
Facebook was defeated by Weibo, Amazon was defeated by Yuanfang Mall, Google began to retreat in Asia, and Baidu began to take the lead.
Among the anti-virus software, Qihoo struck late, and when the free policy came out, well-known international manufacturers were at a loss.
E-commerce, search engines, social platforms, anti-virus software, including Internet payment or Internet finance.
Huaxia has achieved incomparably brilliant achievements in the past two years!
At this time, is it really appropriate to say cold winter?
At least for large companies, it is not appropriate to say that winter is our spring!
This is just the IT industry. In addition, during this period, many companies also started their overseas expansion.
The financial crisis originated abroad, and they are the ones who have the greatest impact.
Petrochemical has acquired Addax, Petrochemical has acquired Kazakhstan Oil & Gas, Geely has acquired Volvo, and others include Tengzhong, BAIC, and SAIC. These automakers are all looking for opportunities to acquire foreign auto brands!
Lenovo and Surin have also started overseas expansion.
What kind of crisis is this?
This is our chance!
The financial crisis has given us the opportunity for these Chinese companies to merge and reorganize, and has given us the opportunity to grow and develop!
So from our point of view, this is actually a good thing, and it is a good opportunity for us to go bright and lead the global industry. "
When Li Dong said this, some people in the audience nodded, and some people discussed in low voices.
Li Dong took a look and said with a smile: "Of course, many people will say that we don't have back pain when we stand and talk.
Big companies have the opportunity and the confidence to say this and reap the fruits of this financial crisis.
Small and medium-sized enterprises, life is not so easy.
When the financial crisis came, the world was tightening money, stocks of various companies plummeted, and many small and medium-sized enterprises died of this crisis.
In fact, we all see this in our eyes.
When we make profits at home and abroad, in fact, we are not just watching you die.
At the Internet Conference in 2008, Ma Yun said that if the bank remains unchanged, we will change it!
Of course, this is not for banks, nor for financial institutions.
This is a general term. Our purpose is to seek breakthroughs and outlets for small and medium-sized enterprises.
At this point, I think Ali has done a good job.
Ali's B2B business still has a large market around the world.
Although they have suffered some crises, in the past two years, there have indeed been many small and medium-sized enterprises, relying on Ali's channels and influence, to open up foreign markets and rise against the trend.
At this point, we cannot deny the credit of Ali, which is the expansion of foreign trade channels.
In addition, Ali has also supported a number of individual merchants internally through the C2C platform. This point cannot be denied.
However, there are still many slots in it, so I won’t talk about it today.
However, whether it is Ali's B2B channel or China's B2C and C2C platforms, there are still a small number of companies that can really support them.
What we said in 2008 seemed to be a joke.
Someone asked, Li Dong, you have made money yourself, and you have become bigger and bigger, how many small and medium-sized enterprises have you supported, and how many enterprises have you saved?
Before, in Times Square on NASDAQ, I said that I am not anyone's savior, nor do I have the ability to save anyone.
But today, I still want to say that although I am not the savior of the world, I am a Chinese and an indispensable part of China's contemporary business world!
As the leader of the young generation in the Chinese business community...
Of course, when you say this, you may deny it, and you may feel that I, Li Dong, have given myself this name.
Actually, I really don't care about the title.
But the fact is so, then I have to take this responsibility!
I am not a savior, but I am one of the leaders of the Chinese business community in this era, so I have the obligation to make the entire industry prosper, to revitalize the Chinese enterprises and the Chinese economy globally!
Talking so much nonsense is actually an explanation for the 2008 Internet Conference.
Whether Ali has taken action this year, let alone talk about him.
But in the past year, Yuanfang has been striving for this goal, working hard for this goal!
Now, it's fruitful! "
Li Dong looked at the crowd and said in an uplifting tone: "Just a few days ago, the government passed a new policy on Internet finance.
I don't know if you have seen it, but the distance is watching, staring!
Immediately, Yuanfang obtained the first small loan license in the field of Internet finance.
what does that mean?
It means that what was said last year, this year, Yuanfang has begun to realize him!
With a small loan license, Yuanfang Finance is already qualified to start lending to enterprises, and is also qualified to rescue those enterprises that lack funds and are on the verge of bankruptcy!
In many cases, for small and medium-sized enterprises, 100,000 or even 200,000 funds may become the last straw that crushes them.
It is a fact that banks have too many businesses, face too many individuals and enterprises, and their processes are complicated.
Even if there are some leaders of financial institutions here, I still want to say, if you count on the banks to rescue you, then wait for them to go bankrupt!
After going through a set of procedures, your business will collapse before the money is received.
And now, your chance is here!
Yuanfang Finance is about to open our own exclusive online business loan. The review is simple and the process is fast, which can save some companies in the first place.
Of course, there are still some restrictions on corporate loans, with a maximum cap of 1 million.
1 million is far from enough for many companies.
It doesn't matter, Yuanfang is currently contacting big banks such as China Construction Bank, Bank of China, China Merchants Bank, and ICBC, including some insurance companies and securities companies, and is preparing to reach a cooperation agreement.
With Yuanfang Financial Platform as an intermediary, some enterprises with a loan amount of more than 1 million RMB can go through our channel and we will guarantee it, and then go to the bank to make a loan.
As long as you can get the approval of Yuanfang, you can meet the standards in Yuanfang's credit system.
All the problems are not a problem, we will help banks and other financial institutions complete the review process as quickly as possible.
This point is mutually beneficial for us, for enterprises, and for banks.
We help businesses to obtain loan opportunities and reduce their time.
It also helped the bank save all the procedures in the early stage and reduced a lot of human and material resources.
Moreover, Yuanfang's financial credit system has also decided to share it with financial institutions. Everyone shares resources with each other to create the most complete credit system, reduce risks, allocate more funds to support those small and medium-sized enterprises, and create more Huaxia's own brands!
This platform will be launched soon to meet everyone.
But this time, Yuanfang raised 300 billion yuan, still through the ABS channel. Do you know why?
It was a trial plan made by Yuanfang!
We want to see whether Yuanfang's credibility is strong enough!
We want to see if Yuanfang has the ability to raise more funds for everyone from around the world to support the development and growth of our own enterprises after the launch of Yuanfang Enterprise Loan Platform!
Large enterprises, they have the ability and confidence to take out loans and raise funds.
In fact, does Yuanfang have to carry out ABS financing?
Can't we get a loan from the bank?
neither!
Huaxia's capital, or any country's capital resources are limited.
We just want to raise funds through more international channels, instead of being limited to China's local financial market.
Once Yuanfang succeeds in financing this time, it means that we will achieve greater success in the future!
This time it is 300 billion, and next time, it may be in US dollars!
Once there is 300 billion US dollars to support the development of small and medium-sized enterprises, how many enterprises can be supported to rise?
Now, it is to support small and medium-sized enterprises. In the later stage, when the platform has credibility and strength, we will expand this scope!
We will gain more room for cooperation with financial institutions in China and even the world.
In the end, you can find far away for financing and loans!
This range even includes some large enterprises.
We do not aim at profit, our purpose is to seek greater benefits for everyone.
What crisis?
What winter?
The banks are already changing, we are looking for a way out ourselves, and the government is backing us!
At this time, do you still need to worry about the crisis?
Spring is coming!
All of you present here are leading enterprises in Huaxia. Yuanfang is now one step ahead. Next, I believe that more responsible and responsible enterprises will emerge, and join us in this cause to support the development of Huaxia’s local industries!
With great power comes great responsibility.
This sentence is most appropriate when used here and now!
Get rich first and get rich later, let everyone move towards a well-off road together. After the enterprise grows bigger, we will support you today, and you will support other enterprises tomorrow.
This is the secret of the enduring Chinese civilization and Chinese business.
As one of the benchmarks of this era, I, Li Dong, will set an example for everyone first, and we will make these bigger and stronger together later!
We want the whole world to see that Huaxia's enterprises and entrepreneurs in Huaxia are the most united group of people!
..."
Li Dong on the stage spoke passionately.
Some entrepreneurs in the audience were also very excited at this time, and their emotions were aroused.
But some big entrepreneurs have complicated expressions at this time.
Some financial institution leaders who participated in the summit were also discussing in low voices at this time.
The vice president of a bank couldn't help whispering: "This is the first entrepreneur who links the loan business with the spirit of Huaxia's inheritance.
When did the loan business become so great? "
Someone next to him coughed lightly and said, "Li Dapao can talk, but it's not just bragging.
What's more, giving loans to enterprises can indeed save some enterprises. "
"Forget it, at least it's to justify our name..."
"He's not trying to clear our name, he's trying to clear Yuanfang Finance's name, all the honor belongs to him, we can't get any real benefits.
But what he said is also right. Having an enterprise like Yuanfang do the early stage can indeed save us a lot of manpower and material resources.
Moreover, if the guarantee is made by a distant party, the risk is much smaller.
If not, how could banks such as CCB agree to cooperate with him?
If you don't suppress Yuanfang Finance, you will be worthy of him.
Li Dapao is not only good at bragging, he is better than a monkey, and he offered a lot of conditions to impress these large commercial banks.
Otherwise, their consumer loans, business loans, including Yu'e Bao to absorb public deposits, have long been suppressed by others.
The reason why he can live so well now is that Li Dapao can speak well and dare to give up benefits at critical moments. "
"..."
Many people in the audience were discussing, and most of the small and medium-sized enterprises were excited.
After all, Yuanfang's opening of enterprise loans, if it can reduce the process as Li Dong said, and Yuanfang guarantees, it will be much simpler than their loans from banks.
Small and medium-sized enterprises borrow in banks, because of the lack of credibility, the preliminary review is a long time.
Whether it can pass in the end, there is little hope.
Especially when the money is tightened, it is even more difficult.
In 2008, Li Dong and Ma Yun talked about supporting small and medium-sized enterprises at the Internet Conference. In the end, they did not see any other actions except for some support on the e-commerce platform.
What Ma Yun said about changing the bank at the beginning was almost a joke.
But now, Li Dong is doing it!
In Li Dapao's style, it's fine if you don't do it. Once you do it, the movement will be insignificant.
...
At this moment, the opening speech became Li Dong's publicity conference.
But Ma Yun and everyone in the audience couldn't say no.
Are business loans important?
In fact, it's just average, at least for big companies, they don't value it here, what are the funds of hundreds of thousands of dollars enough for?
What's more, which big company has no contact with the bank, and is afraid of lack of channels?
But it is not important to them, but it is indeed important to those small and medium-sized enterprises.
Including Yuanfang also said that it is tempting for many companies with assets of over 100 million yuan to cooperate with banks and open financial loan channels with more than one million yuan.
An enterprise with assets of over 100 million does not mean that it has hundreds of millions of funds.
Many times, these companies also worry about hundreds of thousands of funds.
As long as the interest rate here is not much higher than that of the bank, and the process is simplified as much as possible, I believe this audience will not be small.
After all, Yuanfang is not a small family, and the other party still has this credibility.
Ma Yun sighed, and Liu Chuanzhi on the side smiled and said: "You still haven't learned a lesson, why do you have to drag him every time you show your face?
As soon as these words come out today, there will be a lot of trouble among small and medium-sized enterprises in the future.
Also, did you hear the point?
The government is supporting him, and the bank is supporting him. Now he is not alone, and a new alliance of interests has been formed in the distance.
If you want to fight with Yuanfang again, it will be difficult! "
Ma Yun sighed lightly: "It's difficult, and I didn't want to keep fighting, but his ambition is not dead, and he fights the weak and fights the strong.
Now, he is wooing the weak and defeating the strong.
Whether we want to fight or not is not the key.
The point is, he thinks so.
This guy only picks hard persimmons to start with, we can't avoid it. "
As soon as these words came out, the people next to him didn't know whether they should be honored or lamented.
The companies that were targeted by Yuanfang meant that Yuanfang ignored them, and Li Dong recognized them, making them worth suppressing.
This is a recognition of strength.
But sometimes, this recognition of strength is really tiring.
