Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 672 Honesty and no deception (two in one)

Fang Zhuo was completely relieved when he received a call from the capital.

Even if the "front" is viewed from the "back", the level of Rhubarb is not hard enough, but speculation is speculation after all, and the truth is not known until the stone hits the ground.

The other party's concealed posture is weak, at least, when facing him, he doesn't have that much confidence.

Therefore, e-buy can continue to increase the size and perfect the gift for Mr. Rhubarb.

The regulation of market behavior in the administrative field, the tightening of corporate money at the financial level, and the counterattack against Gome by industry rivals, if according to history, Mr. Da Huang still has a moment to come out this time, he will receive a set of combined punches .

This is the overall move that Fang Zhuo considers to fight against Mr. Rhubarb.

Regardless of his status in the industry or the importance he attaches to himself, Rhubarb always drives the suppliers to come up with a "lion fights a rabbit and uses all their strength".

So, out of respect, it's also the best effort to mobilize the resources that can be mobilized.

Of course, putting aside a little bit of personal color, Fang Zhuo also regards this channel battle as the key point of e-buy's growth.

Amazon's Bezos likes to talk about the "flywheel effect" based on Amazon.

——The improvement of user experience brings traffic growth, which attracts more suppliers, which leads to lower prices, more abundant products and convenient conditions, and finally drives the further improvement of user experience.

——It takes a lot of resources and time for this set of flywheels to turn from stationary to rotating, but once it turns, it will not stop.

Fang Zhuo believes that e-buy's channel competition this time is a flywheel that needs to be turned hard.

As long as we use all our resources to make it run, we can take advantage of the development of domestic e-commerce and turn it into a fast lane.

Gome is not the target of e-buy. Ali, which just announced this month that it has received a US$10 billion investment from Yahoo, is the expected opponent in the e-commerce field.

This year, Ali, which has continued to raise funds, has been unable to fight back against eBay. Now it has reached a cooperation with Yahoo. This action was also called by Fang Zhuo at the company meeting, "Ali got the last bullet to kill eBay."

Under such circumstances, Fang Zhuo hopes that the "E-buy Double Eleven" prepared by gathering various resources will open up a new situation.

On August 8, e-buy held two consecutive days of meetings around business activities with temporary partners Suning, Five Star, and Paradise.

When getting off work, Fang Zhuo received the news that Gome’s Hong Kong stocks were suspended, and it had a long-overdue explanation announcement, acknowledging that the chairman was assisting in the investigation, but his business was not affected.

Before waiting for these news to chat with Su Wei about the situation of competitors, a call came in from the head of Ali.

"President Ma, congratulations." Fang Zhuo was a little surprised by this contact, "The days when eBay will leave China in disgrace are not far away."

"It's not that time yet, but we should chase after the poor." Ma Dian, who had received a large sum of financing, was quite satisfied, and mentioned the purpose of the call, "I talked with Pony a few days ago, and he mentioned What do you mean by our domestic e-commerce experience exchange, Mr. Fang?"

Today's Ali and Taobao are the No. 1 e-commerce companies in China, and Ma Dian is very happy to have an opportunity to communicate with everyone.

Fang Zhuo said with a smile: "Mr. Ma wants to give us a class. Of course I am happy. It can be anywhere. Well, I can choose a place where I have never held a meeting before. It can be regarded as a change of mood."

Ma Dian suggested, "How is Yiwu?"

Fang Zhuo was surprised and said, "Mr. Ma is going to buy dry goods? No problem, December at the end of the year can be regarded as a summary of the development of this year's industry."

This year’s e-commerce track is true. There are many things worth mentioning. Penguin’s C2C entry, Dangdang and e-buy’s book competition, Taobao’s reversal of the situation, Alibaba’s cooperation with Yahoo, and e-buy’s scheduled Double Eleven...

Hearing this time, Ma Dian immediately thought of the news he had heard, and asked directly: "I heard that Mr. Fang's Tesco is going to hold a large-scale promotion. This is really an organic combination of the Internet and offline retail."

Fang Zhuo deservedly accepted the praise, and suggested by the way: "Taobao can also do it, we will do it for the second half of the year, and you will do the first half of the year, I have chosen the date for you, June 6th, 18 and 6, Taobao 8. "

Ma Dian was quite moved.

Fang Zhuo said again: "Taobao is overwhelming eBay this year. It's too powerful. How much is the transaction volume expected to be this year?"

This is not a number to hide.

Because Taobao has been announcing that its transaction volume has repeatedly broken new highs, while eBay announced tit-for-tat at the beginning, and then gradually fell silent.

Ma Dian bluntly stated an internal assessment of this year: "70 billion to 80 billion."

Fang Zhuo also had a prediction in his heart, but when he heard the number, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Amazing!"

Last year in 04, Taobao's transaction volume was worth 10 billion yuan, and this year it is making great strides towards 80 billion yuan.

This figure is half of Gome's revenue. Of course, the two cannot be compared in this simple way, but it is quite amazing.

Moreover, this triumphant advance will continue.

Perhaps, next year will be able to surpass Gome.

Fang Zhuo subconsciously compared it with his recently familiar opponents, and once again praised: "Taobao's growth is too strong, and the future can be expected, and the future can be expected."

Ma Den laughed: "It was burned out with money. If it doesn't increase, life will be difficult."

"Then in December, let's talk about the joy of burning money." Fang Zhuo said with a smile.

Ma Dian was startled, and said, "One subject per person, Mr. Fang will talk about this when the time comes."

Fang Zhuo smiled.

The two chatted for a few more words before ending the call.

Fang Zhuo pondered for a moment, and sighed to Su Wei in the office: "E-buy has a long way to go. If Double Eleven goes well this year, Taobao will be ahead of us by Gome next year."

According to the current growth trend, the transaction volume GMV in 06 will at least double that of this year.

The vitality of the C2C market will become more vigorous with the development of economy, infrastructure, Internet and other factors.

In comparison, B2C really needs the joy of burning money more.

E-buy's current opponents are Gome, which squeezes suppliers, and Suning, which has a short-term cooperation. The biggest advantage it can provide consumers is transparent product prices without middlemen, which is also the most sensitive factor for everyone.

However, in the face of e-commerce competitors, or in other words, facing typical representatives of C2C, it is possible to provide consumers with a good shopping experience in the product value chain through a complete closed loop of self-operated procurement, warehousing, logistics, distribution, and after-sales.

I was supposed to get off work on time today, but because of Ma Dian's phone call, Fang Zhuo couldn't help holding a few executives who hadn't left for an impromptu meeting to discuss the imaginary opponents of the Internet.

If e-buy wants to compete with Taobao, it must fully optimize all links, and warehousing and logistics under the asset-heavy model are the top priorities.

Fang Zhuo is going to inspect e-buy's warehouse construction in China this month, and now he can't wait.

The meeting lasted until 08:30.

Fang Zhuo and Su Wei, the couple who worked overtime, returned hungry and hungry, and the others would probably make do with a bite and then sort out the progress of the company in all directions at home.

However, before he got home, Fang Zhuo received another call from Wu Zheng.

"Mr. Fang, I will go back to the capital tomorrow. Do you have time at noon?" Wu Zheng has been watching the situation since he arrived in Shencheng and belatedly got the news from Mr. Huang and Boss Xu.

Today, with Gome's suspension of trading and Shencheng Media's release of an interview with the other party's president about corporate compliance, he is finally returning to the capital.

What is the nature of Mr. Fang's interview?

This is the end!
Gome cut off the supply, Mr. Fang let go, Chaoshang mediated, mediation failed, Mr. Huang had an accident, the market counterattacked, and public opinion ended. The one-stop chain has been made very clear.

Wu Zheng saw the matter clearly from the perspective of a bystander, and he seemed to have no room for turning around, so he planned to return to Beijing.

However, after much deliberation, a righteous person like him still feels that he can talk to Mr. Fang. If Mr. Fang fights with Mr. Huang, then Boss Xu is quite innocent. Both the circle and the news have begun to talk about Gome and Tesco, Mr. Huang and Mr. Huang. Boss Fang, but Boss Xu didn't even have a splash.

Wu Zheng believes that the friendship between Boss Xu and himself is at least worthy of an explanation.

"Mr. Wu is going back tomorrow? Tomorrow noon... Tomorrow noon is an event at the Shencheng Chamber of Commerce. I'm afraid I don't have time." Fang Zhuo said, "I just came out of the company and haven't eaten yet. Mr. Wu came out to have supper together."

Wu Zheng was a little surprised and agreed.

Fang Zhuo decided on the location and turned to the restaurant.

"What the hell is Mr. Wu here for? I thought he had already left." Su Wei asked.

"Maybe it's about human touch." Fang Zhuo replied.

Today, especially since Bingxin has handed over the development plan for the second production line, he has lost his patience with the rhubarb incident, and he no longer wants to be involved in doing things because of it.

We're all busy, so that's about it.

Wu Zheng still went to the banquet alone. When he saw Mr. Su and Mr. Fang from Tesco together for the second time, he vaguely understood the relationship between the two.

He wanted to talk about things in his heart, while Fang Zhuo and Su Wei really came to eat.

It's supper time, feast on it.

Wu Zheng picked up the topic and maintained a good chat atmosphere.

When he saw that the two had similar meals, he still mentioned Boss Xu who had a good relationship with him.

"Mr. Fang, to be honest, although this trip to Shanghai was entrusted by someone." Wu Zheng said, "But I am not familiar with Mr. Huang."

Fang Zhuo took a sip of the juice and didn't speak, it was endless.

Wu Zheng saw Mr. Fang's expression, but he continued to support him with support in his heart: "It's Xu Zhongmin, the boss of Beijing's Chaohaowei, who heard that Mr. Fang and I worked together in Sina. He and I have a good relationship."

Fang Zhuo had never heard of this person, but he probably knew what was going on when he heard the name of the store, so he remained silent.

"I promised him to come here, and he was also very happy, and planned to come and visit Mr. Fang later." Wu Zheng said again.

After Fang Zhuo put down his chopsticks, he finally responded, "He was too happy."

Wu Zheng's brewing words can't be continued, and the spirit in his heart can only be sustained here. After all, Mr. Fang's words are simple, direct and clear.

Fang Zhuo saw that Mr. Wu didn't intend to babble anymore, so he raised his glass happily and said, "Mr. Wu, that's it. Boss Xu can let him come if he wants to call. welcome."

Wu Zheng thought to himself, you can't run away, but the boss must be able to come, the meaning of these words is even more rude.

He also toasted, drinking the last glass of this trip to Shanghai...juice.

Wu Zheng felt that Mr. Fang would not give up, and he had done his best, so Boss Xu could just obey the destiny.

Snack time is enjoyable again.

Fang Zhuo believes that everyone will become amiable if they no longer dwell on those past events.

On the way back, Su Wei gave a small reminder: "I remember you asked me to tell you to be kind to others. Mr. Wu seems to have something to say. Who is that boss Xu?"

"I don't know, I haven't heard of it, and I'm not interested." Fang Zhuo said this, but he also reflected, "Wei Wei, you are right, I seem to be acting a little impatient, Wu is always a friend, I can't do this next time .”

Su Wei nodded, remaining cautiously optimistic.

Sure enough, an influential matter was not so easily wiped out without a sound.

On the next day, at the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, Fang Zhuo attended as the vice president and talked about his legal team cooperating with a New York law firm, and was willing to provide some help to companies with foreign trade business within his ability.

This is a good thing.

This is of course a good thing.

However, when Fang Zhuo spoke about foreign cases, a member of the chamber of commerce who was born in the face raised his hand to ask questions.

"Mr. Fang, do you think Gome has violated the rules?"

Fang Zhuo had a smile on his face, but when he heard this question, he immediately suppressed his smile, pointed to the meeting topic on the screen, and said four words to the person sitting next to Yao Wenchen of Yao Ji Poker: "Let's discuss the matter."

This person is still a little unconvinced.

Fang Zhuo glanced at him lightly.

He felt startled, and was touched by the embarrassed Yao Wenchen with his foot, so he took advantage of the situation and kept silent.

There was a slight interlude in the meeting, but it went on smoothly again.

Vice President Fang's act of Shanghai Chamber of Commerce was out of goodwill, and many members also expressed their gratitude at the end, but aside from the useful but boring content of the meeting, the small episodes are even more interesting to talk about.

People at the time praised and said, Zhu Zongcheng is not deceiving me, and Fang Zongguo has a fierce look.

The conversation lasted only about half a minute, and we could talk about the cause and effect for an hour.

Liu Suyi also participated in the meeting, and was called by Mr. Fang to ask about the effect.

He responded to everyone's remarks in a rather tactful manner.

Even with Fang Zhuo's broad-mindedness, he couldn't help being a little depressed after listening to the evaluation of himself from the beginning of the incident to the present, so he updated his blog that night.

——Someone in the world slanders me, bullies me, humiliates me, laughs at me, despises me, despises me, hates me, and lies to me. How should I deal with it?
——Just endure him, let him, let him, avoid him, endure him, respect him, ignore him, and wait for a few more years to see him.

Fang Zhuo quoted a famous sentence and wrote: This is the most beneficial way of dealing with people.

However, besides attracting many supportive comments, the richest man's blog also had dazzling words that made Fang Zhuo sigh.

Su Wei witnessed his emotional change, and when President Fang left the room, she couldn't help but glance at the comments on the blog.

Someone commented like this: The more you lack, the more you show.

Su Wei couldn't help laughing, she was kind to others, but in the end she was hurt mercilessly.
