When Whitman, the CEO of eBay in the US, heard about Taobao's establishment, she immediately flew to Shanghai. This market is second only to North America, and it will bring in high profits for the company if they can capture this market.
Although China was still developing and the per capita income was not high, the per capita income could be considered as average if only the people living in the city were included. Most importantly, Hua Xia has a lot of people. Based on the standard of a well-off family, half of a year's income is enough to satisfy their material needs, and the remaining half is used to invest. Hua Xia has a lot of well-off families.
Even if one-third of the population in North America is eBay's registered users, there are only tens of millions of people. But Hua Xia has more than a billion people, and one-twentieth of its population is equivalent to the North American market.
Kirilenko came with Whitman. He has nothing to do in the US and visited Hua Xia before returning to Moscow.
A private jet landed at Shanghai's airport, and Kirilenko and Whitman alighted.
Feng Yu is standing below to welcome his old friend.
"Feng, why didn't you visit me in the US for so long?" Kirilenko hugged Feng Yu tightly.
"Didn't I tell you? My wife is pregnant, and I need to be in China during this period. Furthermore, even if I don't go over, you can still come over. "
"Mr Feng, nice to meet you. I am Whitman, the CEO and CEO of eBay." Whitman extended her right hand to Feng Yu.
Feng Yu is also interested to meet this legendary female executive. If she is not working at eBay, Feng Yu would want to poach her to Amazon. In Feng Yu's previous life, many people said that eBay's success is because of Whitman's hard work. Even eBay's shareholders agree.
Before Whitman's term ended, she was the one who chose her successor. That person was her colleague from her previous company, and she helped eBay continue to grow.
Whitman, on the other hand, went to pursue her new job. She became the CEO of Hui Pu. Hui Pu's salary wasn't higher than eBay's. That was a new challenge she had chosen for herself.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Whitman. If you are not working for Kirilenko's company, I would have tried to poach you over to my company." Feng Yu did not hide his admiration for Whitman.
"Thank you, Mr Feng. I am very happy working at eBay, and I am confident that eBay will become a multinational retail giant!" Whitman said proudly.
"Feng, what did I say? You will not be able to poach her away." Kirilenko said proudly.
Back then, he looked down on Whitman because she was a woman. In the end, he realized that this woman is not an ordinary woman. She is better than most men, and she is also good at management. eBay can become what it is today because of her.
Of course, Kirilenko learned from Feng Yu and will not mistreat his subordinates. Kirilenko gave Whitman a generous share reward, and when her term ends, she will get at least 100 million USD worth of eBay shares. This is a treatment that many CEOs don't get.
"Hahaha … I also have a good management team, and I will not compete with you. But if she is tired of working at your company and wants a change of environment, I will welcome her anytime. "
Whitman thought Feng Yu is joking with Kirilenko and her. But when she saw Feng Yu's serious expression, she is sure that Feng Yu admires her.
She is proud to be appreciated by the World's Richest Man.
Feng Yu and Whitman did not stand there and chat. Kirilenko and Whitman boarded Taihua Holdings' Songjiang Limousine. This is a simplified version of Kirilenko's wedding car. There are two Songjiang S-Class cars in front and back, which is the most high-end Songjiang Limousine car. In the past, only custom-made cars are available, but now, the production has increased.
"This building is Mr. Feng's property?" Whitman looks at the Wind and Rain Building in Shanghai.
There are rumors that Hua Xia likes to buy properties, but even the World's Richest Man, Feng Yu, is one of them. He even buys buildings one by one.
"This is Taihua Holdings's property, and most of the buildings are offices of Taihua Holdings's subsidiaries. There are also some offices rented by other multinational companies. For example, your eBay Yi Qu's office is in this building. You should know about this, right? "
Whitman knows about this. She was present when eBay invested in eBay Yi Qu and bought most of eBay Yi Qu's shares. The funds involved were more than 160 million USD. Of course, she had to check on it personally.
When Kirilenko arrived at Feng Yu's office, he walked to the bar and opened a bottle of wine.
Whitman looked at him curiously. Why does Feng Yu not have a secretary in his office? She does not know that Feng Yu does not like to be disturbed in his office. Normally, no one will enter his office unless he calls for them. If his secretary sees him playing online games in his office, his image will be ruined!
How can the World's Richest Man act like an ordinary office worker and play games secretly at work?! Kirilenko knows Feng Yu's habit, and that's why he decided to do it himself.
"Ms. Whitman, what do you want to drink? I will get someone to prepare it for you."
Kirilenko placed a glass of wine in front of Whitman. "No need. I believe she will like this bottle of wine."
Kirilenko was also very satisfied with Whitman. Whitman actually liked to drink a little. Although it is not much, it is enough for Kirilenko to admire her.
Someone who likes to drink must be a good person!
This is an important sentence in Kirilenko's dictionary.
Feng Yu shrugged his shoulders and brewed a pot of tea. Birds of a feather flock together. Kirilenko did not expect Whitman to like to drink.
"Mr Feng, your office doesn't seem big." Whitman looked around the office and asked.
"I don't work here often, that's why my office is small. It's a waste to have such a big office. "
Feng Yu's office is smaller than Zong Qingxian's. Zong Qingxian was embarrassed to have such an office, but Feng Yu said it doesn't matter. Anyway, he does not come here often, and Zong Qingxian needs to work here all year round.
Also, Zong Qingxian's work is much busier than Feng Yu's. Although Zong Qingxian does not care about such treatment, Feng Yu does not mind.
"Mr Feng is the World's Richest Man, but he is still so thrifty. I didn't expect him to be so thrifty."
"The World's Richest Man is just a title. My company's scale is not comparable to Bill Gates' Microsoft or those top companies. When my company's scale is bigger than them, I think I will accept the title of the World's Richest Man. At that time, my company's shareholders and top management will also be listed on the World's Richest List! "
