How did I become a god

Hangcheng.

Ali, as the top Internet company in China, has slowed down its growth rate in recent years. In the field of e-commerce, its core business, it has encountered strong challenges from JD.com and Pinduoduo. At present, Alipay and Alibaba Cloud are still outstanding. .

As for the businesses acquired by Ali, most of them are left to chance or finished.Ali is known as "paraquat for entertainment" because it insists on the idea of ​​holding shares in investment.

But Ali is an undisputed giant. Not long after Tencent got the news, they also got the news.

As the current person in charge of Ali, Zhang Yong held a video conference.Jack - who is out of town, Cai Chongxin who has returned to the United States to settle down and play basketball, and Ali's partners are all called together to discuss the changes in Uber.

Phoenix Group, as a domestic Internet company, although it no longer has the glory of "FAT" in the past, it is still a major Internet company no matter what.The change of the person in charge of its core business is of course worthy of an impromptu meeting of the opponents to discuss.

Jing Gao had been at odds with Lao Ma for a long time. During the Internet Conference in Wuzhen, the two had a very unpleasant chat with each other in Jing Gao's temporary residence.Moreover, the Phoenix Group also kicked Ali out of Weibo, messing up Ali's layout in the media industry.

In fact, many people don't know that Alibaba is very courageous. They not only innovate in finance, but also try to get involved in the media.At that time, his youngest partner, Jiang Fan, kept a mistress during his marriage, and the hot searches on Weibo were suppressed, which aroused the disgust of netizens across the Internet.At this time, many people suddenly realized that Ali had made so many arrangements in the media industry.

Of course, no matter how Ali deploys in the media industry, if the national team is excluded, today's media industry is the most powerful Internet platform.As a cesspit for the whole people, Weibo undoubtedly has a special status.

Ali still has considerable shares in Weibo, but has no voting rights, and is excluded from the decision-making level of Weibo by Phoenix Group.

Losing the influence of the meager platform, Ali's media empire is much inferior.

Lao Ma's alien face is still the same and is very recognizable. In the video, he said: "Old Zhang, what are your thoughts? The person in charge of Uber has changed. Is there anything that can be used?"

There is a tradition of flower name culture in Ali, but this name may not be used in ordinary communication.For example, Lao Ma likes others to call him Teacher Ma.

Zhang Yong pushed his glasses and said: "My idea is to increase investment in AutoNavi. AutoNavi's taxi-hailing business can seize the opportunity to develop. Uber's adjustment of the person in charge this time will definitely give them two calls." Three years of chaos.”

A company is like a ship. It doesn't mean it can turn around immediately. There is inertia.If the subsequent person in charge is not good enough, it may not be possible to adjust in two or three years.

Cai Congchannel: "Who is the new person in charge introduced by Uber?"

Cai Congxin was forced to withdraw from the company's governance due to the failure of the struggle between Ali and Phoenix Group.But his Ali partner status has not changed.Although this club has withdrawn, it can still participate in the company's internal meetings.

In the arena of the Internet, it is routine to send several commercial undercover agents to each other.Netizens who have experienced the mutual spraying of water armies in the past know that Ali's list is among the largest water armies.

Dai Shan, one of the Eighteen Arhats and responsible for B2B business, said: "I heard that he is an assistant to Boss Jing. His name is Jing Shufeng. He is a French translator. He went to Paris with Boss Jing and participated in the whole process of LV Group annexing Zhaoshi Group. Business war. It belongs to his confidants. But no one in the industry is optimistic about this adjustment.”

Peng Lei, who was in charge of Alipay, took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Boss Jing is hiding behind the scenes and leaving everything to An Zhiwen. He probably got addicted to plotting tricks and deliberately threw his assistant out to fill in the hole. "

With Jing Gao's reputation and achievements in the arena, no one would think that he is out of his mind and he is nepotism.It is estimated that they are engaged in "showing the enemy to be weak" and so on.But the question is, isn’t Uber’s adjustment this time giving Ali a chance?

In the United States, Tsai Congxin said categorically: "I agree to increase investment in AutoNavi and seize the market."

Lao Ma is still in the UK, promoting the cooperation between Alipay and John Bull's Barclays Galaxy. He will be in his villa, sitting in a chair, thinking for a while, and said: "Then let's settle it. You guys discuss the investment Just give me the numbers."

Zhang Yong, as CEO, has already done some homework, saying: "We roughly invest 2 million US dollars in advance, burn money to expand the market, and test the water."

The old horse nodded: "You discuss."

After hanging up the phone, Lao Ma fell into deep thought in his villa in the wealthy district of London.It's still afternoon in China, but it's already late at night here in London.He's not thinking about Uber, the Phoenix Group has fallen behind.He is not very interested.Thinking about a question, where does Alipay go?
It must be listed!

However, Alipay faces various problems when it goes public.As the leader, he naturally knows what the problem is.This gave the entire Alibaba management a sense of urgency.He had a hunch that if Alipay could not be listed as scheduled, it would probably be the beginning of decline for Alibaba.

Beijing, Meituan headquarters building.

Wang Xin was drinking coffee and chatting with his good brother and deputy Wang Huiwen in his office.The news of the change of the person in charge of Uber has been passed on for a long time.Although Uber is headquartered in Shanghai and is listed on Hong Kong Island.

But the Internet circle is so big, who doesn’t have a few “acquaintances”?The news seems to be flying.

Compared with Tencent and Ali who attached great importance to this news, and specially held a meeting of the president's office and a partner meeting, Meituan's response has obviously dropped a level.

This is not to say that Meituan and Phoenix Group have no grievances. Everyone knows that Phoenix Group and Taichu Group are two brands and one team.Orange Food Delivery and Meituan, a subsidiary of Taichu Group, are struggling fiercely.Ali's Ele.me was almost finished, and the market share shrank sharply.

This is a typical example of the market where the boss fights with the boss and wipes out the third.

Wang Xin attaches great importance to it, but there is no need to convene the management of Meituan for a meeting.He didn't deal with Boss Jing, but it was indeed separated by business.There is no need for Meituan to mobilize the masses.

"Hui Wen, what do you say?" Wang Xin took a sip of coffee, leaned on his desk, looked at the beautiful scenery of early spring outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and said with a smile.

Wang Huiwen, Wang Xin’s right-hand man and a classmate of Tsinghua University, smiled and said: “What, you want to take advantage of the chaos to enter the taxi field? It’s very expensive!”

Wang Xin smiled slightly, "We've already gone public, so it's not that we don't have money. It's good to scare them! Boss Jing was a top venture capitalist back then, and he wanted to get involved in any good business. I didn't expect that there will be today."

Back then, he, Cheng Wei and Zhang Yiming drank tea together at the Wuzhen Internet Conference and discussed the boundaries of Internet companies.Now he and Zhang Yiming are left.

Wang Huiwen pondered for a while, and said: "It's okay if you want to scare them. But my suggestion is that it's best not to fight a price war with Uber. Our current internal situation is not enough to continue under the competitive pressure of orange takeout. Open another battlefield, otherwise the financial cost will rise sharply."

Wang Xin nodded: "I understand! Just invest 1 million US dollars to play with them. After we acquired Mobike, we did have the need to develop into the taxi-hailing field. This is an excellent traffic entrance."

"Yes." Wang Huiwen voted for it.

When the entire Internet circle is concerned about the replacement of Uber’s chairman and CEO, Huang Zheng, the CEO of Pinduoduo, a newly promoted Internet upstart, is entertaining Duan Yongping, the business godfather who quietly returned to China to visit relatives and friends in Shanghai.

"Ah Duan, I am very pessimistic about Uber's replacement. Boss Jing is probably a little whimsical."
