Chapter 1175 Return to England
When preparing to leave for the UK, the Olympic atmosphere in China began to grow stronger. Many people were attracted by a list, the latest Hurun Rich List. Gome's Lao Huang's assets exceeded 10 billion, and he became the richest man in the mainland.
The billionaire in 2004 is definitely a great man among great men, otherwise he would not have become the richest man in the Hurun Rich List. So when Yang Dongxu saw this list, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "I don't know when Lao Huang said the famous saying that the rich list is a list of slaughtering pigs."
In his impression, this sentence seems to be said by Lao Huang first, and he doesn't know if he remembers it wrong.
Of course, paying attention to this list is not too gossipy, but Lao Huang is far ahead in the field of home appliance sales, and he can be said to be invincible in the country. Decided to enter the real estate industry.
Facing such a great domestic entrepreneur, although those who can play real estate have extremely rich capital and are very confident. But there are still many people who feel like the wolf is coming.
Of course, Hurricane Construction certainly doesn't have this feeling, let alone Lao Huang. Even if it was Huang Hurricane who came in, it would be as stable as Mount Tai, otherwise it would have been kicked out of the position of the real estate boss.
So Yang Dongxu paid attention to Huang Hurricane's information not only because of Zhao Yu's reminder and the gossip in his heart, but more importantly, he remembered some reports about Huang Hurricane in later generations.
Huang Hurricane's vision of entering the real estate industry seems to be an important turning point. Then not long after entering the real estate industry, he was investigated for illegal loans.
Although the case was finally unresolved, it became a precursor to Huang Hurricane's imprisonment.
After Huang Hurricane went in, Gome, the home appliance giant, began to sway in the wind and rain. In the end, the home appliance industry dominated by Gome became a battle between JD.com and Suning. It quickly became the third in China and even had to stand in the back row.
In addition to Alibaba's shares, Yang Dongxu now has JD.com shares. Especially now he tends to let JD.com develop faster.
In fact, Alibaba did much better than JD.com in later generations, otherwise it would not have become the first in China, and Ma Fengyun was called Ma Dad. And few people called Liu Dad, they all called Liu Brother.
But it must be said that the rise of JD.com has also promoted the convergence of some bad habits of Alibaba. It even promoted the better development of Alibaba. After all, there is a strong opponent chasing desperately around, and Ma Fengyun dare not be careless.
So now even if Lao Huang has not entered, the other party is now preparing to enter the real estate industry. Obviously, he feels that the home appliance industry is already the boss. This industry has reached the peak and it is meaningless, so he is ready to be a boss in other industries.
But the domestic home appliance industry is actually increasing every year, so when Gome is careless, even if Lao Huang has not entered. JD.com still has a chance to steal chicken.
"Alibaba and eBay are probably about to win." Yang Dongxu put down the charter and handed him the recent trend report of Hurricane Construction and some information collection documents, and couldn't help muttering.
When eBay did not slap Alibaba to death, but only slapped it half to death and declared itself the winner. And when there was a dirty deal with some large portals in the network promotion channel.
Yang Dongxu knew that eBay was not far from death, not to mention that eBay had been committing suicide for more than a period of time. While Alibaba was still struggling, they began to increase the commission rate for merchants entering their website.
They looked like they wanted to make back all the huge advertising fees they had spent before today. They were eager to make a lot of money in the mainland market tomorrow.
At this time, Ma Fengyun, who was almost a mentor of entrepreneurial inspiration by giving speeches everywhere, finally took out his trump card to defeat eBay in the future - merchants can enter the website for free.
And it has been three years since the beginning.
The lethality of the free one is really irresistible to everyone. Especially although eBay is very powerful now, it cannot stand up to Taobao's free.
Anyway, if it doesn't cost money, just register a site and don't hang it on Taobao, and then as time goes by. Everyone found that the sales on eBay were high, but after removing the commissions given to the website, they didn't make much money in the end.
On the contrary, the free Taobao side made considerable profits, and it was natural to choose who to abandon and who to abandon. With merchants, there will naturally be registered users.
When there are more registered users, merchants will naturally earn more, thus forming a virtuous circle. Then, before we knew it, the arrogant eBay was completely gone.
"I wonder when this big guy will make another move against me?" Yang Dongxu rubbed his chin.
Ma Fengyun's previous move of killing three warriors with two peaches was undoubtedly very good. If Yang Dongxu hadn't held the trump card in his hand, and Alipay was the king bomb. He would have been shown off by the opponent's showmanship.
Although Ma Fengyun was very honest during this period, he was obviously not really honest. He was almost suffocated by eBay and had no way to show off his showmanship.
But seeing that eBay's arrogance was about to bear the consequences, when Taobao began to take off. When Ma Fengyun began to say, "Even if you hold a telescope in China, you can't see the opponent."
I guess Ma Fengyun has started to think about the shares again. No entrepreneur likes that the shares of the company he founded are mostly occupied by other people. On the surface, he is a startup boss, but in fact he becomes an employee.
So Yang Dongxu was very curious about what tricks Ma Fengyun would use to show off himself. It would be fun if he finally got rid of all kinds of constraints after showing off, but found that he could not get around Alipay, the nuclear aircraft carrier.
When Yang Dongxu came to the UK again, he felt no different from the last time. He did not feel anything when he saw the familiar buildings, but there was an extra tail behind him.
That's right, compared to the last time someone asked him to follow and monitor him. This time, as soon as he came out of the airport, there was an extra tail behind him.
No matter who won or lost the previous lawsuit, the dead were Americans and British. He, a wealthy businessman with legally armed bodyguards, is obviously not a good person.
In addition, this wealthy businessman had previously revealed in court that he was already a 100 billionaire, although the media did not expose it. Everyone collectively chose to remain silent about this matter, as if they had not heard this sentence.
But although the people with ulterior motives did not say it, they must have kept it in their hearts. Therefore, in order to prevent another shooting in public. Or some unlucky thief hit this steel plate, when Yang Dongxu's plane just landed. The British police, who had been notified, felt that it would be more reassuring to send someone to follow him.
"Are police cars leading the way? This is a treatment only for visiting foreign dignitaries." It was still Dai'er's horse farm, but unlike the last few times when Dai'er waited for him on the top, this time Dai'er greeted him at the door.
"Have you ever seen a police car leading the way for foreign dignitaries from behind?" Yang Dongxu glanced at the police car parked on the side of the road not far away, and shrugged helplessly.
He always wanted to keep a low profile, even though he was on the list of some big guys and couldn't keep a low profile. But in life, he still didn't want to be the focus of everyone's attention, just like the monkeys in the park being looked at curiously.
Unfortunately, even if he was a rich man, he was still a rich man. Many things were not what he wanted, such as the small matter of being followed by a police car in front of him, it was not that he didn't want the other party to follow.
"This only shows that your previous things scared too many people." Dai'er said with a smile. Her greeting could obviously help Yang Dongxu get rid of the troubles of the tail behind him.
But this required Yang Dongxu to ask her. Yang Dongxu obviously wouldn't speak up for this little thing, even though the favor wasn't that big and could be easily repaid.
"Thank you for the last time." Yang Dongxu changed the subject, not wanting to be teased by Dai'er anymore.
"After all, we are partners, so I'll naturally help you if something happens. In fact, it's just a little help, and you can get away with it without my help." Compared to the two previous tit-for-tat confrontations, Dai'er has become much more humble now.
This made Yang Dongxu's eyebrows raise involuntarily, and he glanced at Dai'er. He couldn't help but think about it. Dai'er's sudden humility was obviously because something he didn't know happened. And this incident might affect this cooperation.
The two walked side by side into the horse farm, and someone not far away was watching this side. Seeing Yang Dongxu and Dai'er talking and laughing, compared to the blatant hostility before, this time they seemed to be restrained a lot.
Obviously, although all the media seemed to have chosen to forget about the previous case at the same time, Yang Dongxu's popularity in the London circle has undoubtedly risen by several levels. He is no longer an unknown person before. Now many people in the circle know him.
"It seems that being a bad name has its benefits." Dai'er obviously noticed the change in the eyes of those people not far away towards Yang Dongxu.
Yang Dongxu looked at her sideways without saying anything.
The two went up to the second floor and sat down face to face with the same place, the same meals and tea.
"Can I ask if the shares of Motorola and Nokia in your hands refer to the mobile phone business or the shares of the two companies?"
Although Dai'er said this question in a roundabout way, Yang Dongxu understood it at the first time. When mentioning Motorola and Nokia, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely mobile phones.
But these two companies are actually world-class telecommunications companies, and their businesses are not only mobile phones but also other telecommunications flagship products. It is only because the mobile phone industry has been booming in recent years that outsiders feel that these two companies seem to be the most powerful mobile phone manufacturers. And ignore their other larger telecommunications industry.
"I have both, but I own less shares of Motorola Telecom. After all, the United States doesn't like foreigners to control the shares of its own telecom giants. I also went through many circles when I invested in Motorola before. I bought it when its shares were not doing well."
"Doesn't that mean you make more money?" Dai'er smiled slightly.
"Are you trying to change the bargaining chips by mentioning this?" Yang Dongxu leaned back in his chair, his hands resting on his abdomen.
It was obvious that Dai'er was not just curious when she mentioned this matter right away.
