"Everyone has gotten fatter recently."
"After resting for half a year, it would be strange if we didn't gain weight."
"You guys are too lazy. You stayed at home for half a year and didn't go anywhere."
After Penguin announced its closure, Ma Huateng, Zhang Zhidong, and Ceng Liqing had a gathering.
"Where else can we go? We can't really be moving bricks."
Zhang Zhidong smiled.
It was a joke to say that they were moving bricks.
They were all in the IT and Internet industry. Even if their company went bankrupt, they wouldn't move bricks.
Moreover, they didn't lack money.
Although Penguin went bankrupt, they immediately shut down the server. Speaking of which, Penguin still had a lot of funds left.
Of course, Ma Huateng didn't keep all the funds. He returned them to the original shareholders according to the proportion of the shares. Especially SoftBank, most of the Penguin team returned. Basically, for SoftBank, although they lost some, it wasn't too much. They just regretted missing the opportunity.
"Pony, when are you going to come out?"
Ceng Liqing took a sip of tea and looked at Ma Huateng.
"Come out? I don't want to go anywhere now."
Ma Huateng smiled and shook his head.
"Come on."
Ceng Liqing didn't believe him. "You can ask Zhidong and the others. Will they believe you?"
"Uh …"
Ma Huateng was a little embarrassed. "I can't help it if they don't believe me."
"Okay, stop joking. Pony, are you really not going to come out?"
Zhang Zhidong asked Ma Huateng.
In terms of relationship, Zhang Zhidong and Ma Huateng were the closest.
They were university classmates. Zhang Zhidong knew Ma Huateng better.
"Zhidong, what do you think?"
Ma Huateng asked.
"I'm just in the technical field. I have no problem with technical aspects. But I'm not as good as you when it comes to products."
In Penguin, Zhang Zhidong was in charge of technical aspects and Ceng Liqing was in charge of marketing.
Ma Huateng was in charge of strategy.
Zhang Zhidong always liked to listen to Ma Huateng. Although Ceng Liqing was arrogant, he still listened to Ma Huateng.
They had worked together for so long. In terms of overall direction, everyone was used to Ma Huateng being in charge.
"Pony, tell me. I know you've been cooped up at home for more than half a year."
"What did we say before? No matter what happens in the future, the five of us will still be together."
Ma Huateng put down his teacup.
"Is everyone that confident in me?"
"What else?"
"But we lost so miserably before."
"Victory and defeat are commonplace in war. This little bit of failure is nothing."
"If that's the case … then let's do it together."
Ma Huateng didn't hesitate and told him his plan, "Voice chat."
…
Ali.
"Today is cruel, and tomorrow is even crueler. The day after tomorrow is beautiful, but most people die tomorrow night, unable to see the sun after tomorrow …"
Teacher Ma was a natural speaker.
Today, Teacher Ma gave another passionate speech.
Teacher Ma first brought the group of arhats to review the history of Alibaba. Then, Teacher Ma changed the topic. "Alibaba is now starting to take shape, but we haven't done enough. Our competitors are still very strong. We even have a bigger market waiting for us to develop."
"I can say that this market will be ten times, a hundred times … no, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times bigger than our current Alibaba market."
"If we succeed, then all of us here will be able to make it onto the Forbes Rich List."
After listening to the speech, all the arhats felt their blood boil.
Although many arhats knew that Teacher Ma was born to boast, he boasted too much.
However, what made Teacher Ma so awesome was that the things he bragged about often came true.
Back then, he said he wanted to do the Internet, so they did it and succeeded.
Then, Teacher Ma said he wanted to do e-commerce, so they did it. Alibaba was now developing very well.
Now, Teacher Ma was describing an even better future with great ambition.
Arhat No. 2 Cai Congxin waited for Teacher Ma to stop and asked, "Chairman Ma, after hearing what you said, I feel like I'm a billionaire. But, what is the business you're talking about? "
"It's actually very simple, it's our e-commerce."
Ma Yun said mischievously.
Everyone laughed until their stomachs hurt.
However, Ma Yun suddenly became serious. "I'm not joking with everyone. Although the new business I'm talking about is e-commerce, it's different from our current business."
"Chairman Ma, you mean C2C?"
“yes。”
Ma Yun nodded loudly.
Although Alibaba was also doing e-commerce, its model was B2B.
The so-called B2C was a business-to-business business.
Simply put, the business he was in was domestic wholesale trade.
It was a wholesale business.
Some small and medium-sized businessmen in the country wholesale products through Alibaba and then sell them to ordinary users.
On the other hand, C2C was individual to individual, or in other words, consumer to consumer.
It was complicated, but it meant that e-commerce no longer had a threshold and anyone could become a seller.
Similarly, anyone could become a buyer.
At present, eBay was in this business.
The sensitive Ma Yun quickly realized that the best model for e-commerce was not B2B, but C2C.
Therefore, Ma Yun began to prepare to adjust Alibaba's business focus and focus on developing C2C business.
Moreover, he was preparing to create another e-commerce website – Taobao.
…
"Big Pao, you're amazing. You've become a tycoon all of a sudden."
Shencheng. Zhou Hongyi specially rushed to Huanyu Technologies to express his gratitude to Chen Yu.
After several rounds of negotiations, 3721 was sold to Yahoo for 150 million USD.
Faced with such a high price, Zhou Hongyi naturally had to thank Chen Yu properly.
"Haha, I still have to thank you. If you didn't raise the price, my 3721 would only sell for 100 million USD."
"It's nothing. It's mainly because Yahoo and Microsoft want to acquire your 3721."
Chen Yu smiled and shook his head.
Even without Chen Yu, 3721 can still be sold. But the price will be the same as in Feng Yu's previous life, 120 million USD.
"No matter what, thank you very much."
Zhou Hongyi toasted to Chen Yu.
"So, what are you going to do next?"
"Didn't we agree that we will be in the system security business together?"
"You have money and technology. Is there a need to work with me?"
"Chen Yu, this is boring. Are you looking down on me?"
Zhou Hongyi said angrily.
"Big Pao, how can I do that? I am saying that you can do it alone, and there is no need to work with others. You should know that there will be conflicts when working with others. "
"Don't. The market for this business will be huge in the future. Although I can do it alone, you will also do it in the future. When this business is big, we might have to compete with each other. Why don't we do it together? Haha, we can avoid fighting. "
"Big Pao, you really want to work with me?"
"What do you think?"
"Thank you for thinking so highly of me. Since this is the case, I will not be polite. Let's do it together."
Chen Yu did not reject Zhou Hongyi's insistence. "Let's register the company first."
"No problem. But I need to rest for a while. "
"Why?"
"I have no choice. I am tired."
"Tired?"
Chen Yu laughed and said: "Big Pao, why are you tired?"
"Hey, Chen Yu, do you think it is easy for me to get 3721? Do you know that I am under a lot of pressure every day?"
That's true.
Most of 3721's profitable businesses are hooligans.
They use hooligan methods every day. How can they not be worried about revenge?
Finally, he got rid of this business. Zhou Hongyi really wanted to rest for a while.
"That's fine. Don't rest for too long. You know, there are many people who want to do system security business."
"Don't worry, I know."
Zhou Hongyi nodded.
"Sorry, I have to take a call."
While they were chatting, Chen Yu received a call from his assistant, Xia Zhu.
"Big Pao, I am sorry. That's all for today. I will go back first."
"Chen Yu, what's the situation?"
"Nothing much. Several of my competitors are attacking me at the same time."
Without saying more, Chen Yu quickly returned to the company.
