As soon as Li Dong came to Shenzhen, the whole city was stirred up.
Far away's several bosses who received the call began to think about what Li Dong wanted to talk to them about.
Some people guessed it, while others couldn't.
But no one was prepared to refuse Li Dong's invitation.
Even Shunfeng's Wang Wei agreed to meet with Li Dong after thinking for a while after receiving the call.
Being in the same business did not necessarily mean that they were enemies.
Especially with the expansion of the online shopping market Far away, Shunfeng was actually thinking about whether it could get a share of the pie.
The few CEOs agreed readily and agreed to the invitation to meet.
And the Shenzhen government also began to take action at this time.
It was rare for Li Dong to come to Shenzhen. The opportunity had come!
The Shenzhen government had also sent people there before, but they hadn't contacted Li Dong yet. They were negotiating with the senior officials Far away.
But everyone knew that there was only one senior official Far away, and that was Li Dong.
Reaching an agreement with Li Dong was more important than anything else.
…
At this time, Wang Tao, who was in Hong Kong, also received a call from Far away.
Li Dong wanted to talk to him!
In Hua Xia, no matter how big or small a business was, unless it was a roadside stall, it was not a business. Almost everyone knew Li Dong.
Hua Xia's business leader, the world's most outstanding entrepreneur, and even the word "young" could be omitted.
Such a person actually wanted to see him?
Until now, he still didn't know that the shares of Dajiang had been taken over by Shen Qian.
If he knew, Wang Tao would probably be even more surprised. In other words, Dajiang and Far away were actually a family.
Wang Tao, who was having a technical discussion with his teacher, Li Zexiang, hung up the phone and could not help but say, "Teacher, there's a call from Distance. They want to invite me and Li Dong to have a discussion. What do you think they mean?"
"Who?"
"Far away Li Dong."
Li Zexiang was a little surprised when he heard this. "Li Dong wants to talk to you?"
Li Zexiang was no stranger to Li Dong.
He once met Li Dong at the Changjiang Business School.
Later in Hong Kong, he accompanied Li Dong's group to inspect enterprises and other business schools.
At that time, although Li Dong was quite famous in China, he was still a novice in the business world.
When he met with Mr. Li of Changjiang, Li Dong's status was far inferior to that of the other party.
However, in just two years, Li Dong had risen rapidly and stood at the top of Hua Xia's business world at an astonishing speed.
Such a person was destined to be a legend.
Although Li Zexiang had not been in contact with Li Dong for the past two years, he had been paying attention to Li Dong. Far away.
Hearing that Li Dong invited him, Li Zexiang's eyes flickered, "No matter what, there are only benefits and no disadvantages! Dajiang is now facing a series of difficulties. Maybe this is the turning point! You have to know that in the business world of Hua Xia, countless young entrepreneurs hope to get Li Dong's recognition and guidance. Even if it's just a meal together, it's something that they can only hope for. This time, he took the initiative to invite you, it must have something to do with drones … "
This was nonsense, but Li Zexiang had not finished speaking. He pondered for a moment before saying, "Far away's industries related to drones …"
"Real estate is not needed, but the construction of the drone network? Even with today's 3G network, it can't be controlled remotely … "
Li Zexiang analyzed bit by bit, and Wang Tao listened very seriously.
If he could know in advance what Li Dong wanted to talk about when he met him, it would be very helpful to be prepared.
Compared to Far away, Dajiang was just a drop in the ocean, not worth mentioning.
Wang Tao did not want to get financial support. Since Shen Xuehua raised 10 million, he did not plan to raise any more.
Currently, they were not too short of money, the key was still in the direction of future development. Wang Tao was a little hesitant.
After listening to his teacher's analysis for a while, Wang Tao blinked and said, "I've seen the video of Far away's annual meeting before. They are implementing an unmanned sorting system.
I think Li Dong's intention is to maximize efficiency and reduce labor costs.
Far away and drones are the most exhausted industries. Far away technology is the most likely, but Far away technology is not famous for its operating system.
I think it's more related to logistics.
Teacher, do you think he wants to use drones in the logistics industry?
If that's the case … "
Li Zexiang frowned and said, "Can the current network and technology meet this requirement?"
"Teacher, you said it yourself, technology is constantly improving. If it can't reach it now, it doesn't mean it can't in the future. Nowadays, technology is advancing with each passing day. Dajiang's goal is also to focus on the future, not the present. Once drones are really used and promoted in the logistics industry, it will definitely set off a revolution! "
Wang Tao's eyes lit up as he spoke!
Then, Wang Tao stood up and said, "I'll return to Shenzhen immediately. Teacher, maybe this will be a turning point for Dajiang!"
Li Zexiang was not as anxious as him, nor was he as optimistic.
In the field of drones, there were still many limitations.
Dajiang's strength was also very weak. They had to take it one step at a time. However, drone delivery seemed to be a promising development direction.
Li Zexiang saw that Wang Tao was anxious, so he also stood up and said, "I'll go back with you. He can barely be considered my student. If it's possible, I'll accompany you to meet him."
Wang Tao did not reject. Even though he was proud, he was actually a little uncertain about meeting Li Dong alone.
With his teacher accompanying him, the two of them could barely be considered as fellow disciples of the same sect. Perhaps, they might have different harvests.
…
Just as Wang Tao and the others were preparing for the meeting.
Many people focused their attention on Far away.
After the annual meeting, Far away once again made new moves. Far away Airlines officially entered the operating stage.
The first flight had been successfully completed!
25 large cargo planes. Without a doubt, this alone made Far Away officially stand at the top of the logistics field.
Other than shipping, Far Away had grown to become one of the top three in the industry in terms of small cargo transportation.
In the past, there were three connections, one reach, and Shun Feng. Now, only Shun Feng could barely compete with Far Away in the field of express delivery. There was also the postal service.
The old Three Connections and One Reach had begun to be surpassed by Far Away.
Many people in the industry were filled with emotion. The rise of a new overlord also meant that the industry had once again entered a period of profit distribution. The previous overlords would eventually fall.
Who would it be this time?
It was not Three Connections and One Reach. Hua Xia's former absolute overlord of the express delivery industry, Home Express, was facing this difficult moment.
In the past, Home Express was the overlord of the express delivery industry. Shun Feng was nothing.
However, as the internal strife continued, the founders began to leave, and Shun Feng and Far Away continued to occupy the market. Home Express was now facing a critical period of life and death.
At the end of 2008, one of the founders, Cheng Ping, could not bear the family strife and chose to leave.
Cheng Ping was now over 50 years old. After leaving Home Express, Cheng Ping was at a loss.
He was 50 years old. He knew his destiny.
He had struggled for 15 years in Home Express!
How many 15 years did one have in life?
Start another business?
Or take another path?
The reason why he said he would take another path was because he had just thought of it.
At this moment, Cheng Ping was in Shenzhen. He had just come out of Home Express. He felt that he had nowhere to go and was at a loss.
He came to Shenzhen only because of an invitation from a friend and because he wanted to see the headquarters of Shun Feng.
Not long after he arrived, Li Dong came!
Qin Hai had left. As one of the big shots in the industry, he was not a nobody. He was one of the founders of Far Away Logistics and had quite a reputation.
Qin Hai's departure had attracted many people's attention in the logistics industry.
At this moment, when he heard that Li Dong had come to Shenzhen, Cheng Ping suddenly had a thought. Could he wait to continue his business?
Home Express was about to be buried in his big brother's hands!
Cheng Ping had always felt that if it were not for his big brother's meddling, Home Express would not have fallen from its former number one position in the industry to its current state.
The outside world said that Home Express was ruined by his own hands. But who would have known that Home Express's operations in the past few years had been directed by his big brother?
Although he had founded the Home Delivery Company, he was extremely weak in his family.
His big brother and second brother were the ones in charge.
Switching to the e-commerce industry had been Cheng Ping's biggest idea for the past few years. But his big brother and second brother had always rejected his suggestion.
Previously, the scale of online shopping was not large. He had nothing to say even if he was rejected.
But when the scale of online shopping gradually expanded, relying on Taobao and other electronic shopping malls, Home Express was gradually left behind. Cheng Ping realized that Home Express had missed its best opportunity!
Now that Home Express had become the franchisees of most e-commerce companies, there was no chance for Home Express to enter the market again.
And his idea of starting another business was based on this. This time, he was going to focus on e-commerce.
But now that he had left Home Express, he was almost kicked out of the door. He only had 20 to 30 million on him. How could he compete with Home Express?
How could he prove to his big brother and second brother that his choice had always been right? His fault was that he had not been decisive enough!
If he had gotten rid of the family's influence earlier, Home Express would never have become the dispensable player it was today from the hegemon it had been in the past.
He was already 50 years old. It would be difficult for him to have another chance to prove himself.
But if he could find a new high starting point, then he would have another chance.
In the hotel.
Cheng Ping began to hesitate. Should he go Far away and give it a try?
He was confident that with his qualifications, he would at least be the second-in-command if he went to Far away Logistics.
Far away Logistics, which had risen through e-commerce, was very much in line with his psychological position.
But he was old. Working for someone else, and a young one at that, made Cheng Ping a little uneasy.
His big brother had taken over Home Express, and his second brother had established Taikang Life Insurance. When it was his turn, did he really have to work for someone else?
Cheng Ping thought about it for a long time. Finally, he gritted his teeth and gave it a try!
If he could get a good result, so what if he worked for Li Dong? He had a huge obsession when he left Home Express.
Home Express would not be buried in Cheng Ping's hands. Instead, it would be buried in the hands of those who pretended to know.
Now, in the industry, the only ones who could give him a higher starting point and help him prove himself faster were Ali's Rookie and Far away.
However, the rookie was still an empty shell. His name was just a rallying cry.
Compared to Far away, he was still a long way off.
Only a faraway place could allow him to prove himself as quickly as possible.
Cheng Ping also knew the weakness of his character. He was impatient and dared to fight and rush, but he lacked decisiveness.
If he had great boldness, he would not have ended up in this situation.
Going to a faraway place might allow him to be himself better.
After thinking through all this, Cheng Ping packed up and walked out of the hotel. Next, he would look for Li Dong. He wanted to make a comeback from Far away Logistics!
…
The outside world was in an uproar.
In the hotel, Li Dong was leisurely and contented.
Sitting on the sofa on the balcony, Li Dong basked in the sun while holding a teacup and taking a sip. His other hand was holding the phone as he laughed and said, "This time, I made a feint and beat the two horses until they were disoriented. "Until now, I'm afraid the two of them can't guess who my next target is."
There weren't many people who could make Li Dong reveal his true feelings, especially the next strategic direction of the Faraway Alliance, which was even rarer.
Even in the group, there were not many people who knew Li Dong's true intentions.
And other than Shen Qian, there was hardly anyone else who could make Li Dong feel so relaxed.
But even Shen Qian did not know who he was targeting. She asked curiously, "What's your next step?"
"I'll see. If Ma Huateng agrees to cooperate, I'll squeeze Taobao's market while secretly developing WeChat. "If he doesn't agree, I'll squeeze Taobao's market and continue developing WeChat. "This is the way to go, but the results are different. "If I cooperate, I might really squeeze Taobao to death. It's a pleasant surprise. "If I don't cooperate, I can't crush Taobao to death. I'll crush Tencent first."
"What if Ali and Tencent cooperate?"
After hearing this, Li Dong paused for a moment, then said, "I don't think it's possible, but it's not impossible.
"If they cooperate, it'll be a little troublesome.
"QQ's traffic is not low, at least more than the current PP.
"But then again, the era where PC is king is almost over. If they really want to cooperate, I'm not afraid.
"Trouble is trouble, but they'll be destroyed sooner or later.
"After I get rid of them, I'll get rid of the few dominant offline retail companies. Then, I'll be completely relaxed.
"I'll expand the overseas market if I can. If I can't, then there's nothing I can do. I'm not going to fight for the overseas market myself. Far away, I'll see how the others do.
"When that time comes, I'll have time to accompany you."
When Li Dong said this, he felt a little emotional. He had been too busy these few years.
His opponents came one after another, and they could never be reduced. Instead, there were more and more of them.
Until now, he did not even have enough time to accompany Shen Qian, let alone Qin Yuhan and Yuan Xue. This made Li Dong feel that he had to speed up his progress.
This time, Li Dong had repeatedly stirred up trouble, and he wanted to settle things once and for all.
Even if he could not settle things once and for all, it would at least reduce a lot of his burden if he could have one less opponent.
Between the two of them, Li Dong wanted to get rid of one of them. It would be even better if he could get rid of both of them.
With the arrival of the mobile Internet, it was time to reshuffle everything.
If he did not establish an absolute advantage in the early stage, there was a possibility of a comeback.
This was the reason why Li Dong had been entangled in the Internet industry recently. If it was not for the pressure, he would not have cut the Gordian knot and even given up on Beijing.
After chatting with Shen Qian for a while, Li Dong heard a knock on the door. He then hung up the phone and prepared to welcome the guests.
