Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 431 Stop by
The name of Yuhang has been recorded in the history books during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

It has been a county-level city in Zhejiang Province until the millennium.

Until 2001, it was revoked as a county-level city and became an economic development zone of Hangzhou, and it was also a high-tech development zone.

A nanny car was driving on the boulevard. In the eyes of Chu Xuan and Liu Yifei, this ancient city was not old at all. High-rise buildings and technology parks under construction could be found at every distance, and it seemed to be a modern city.

"Shall we go to the next one now?" Concubine Liu Yi looked at the scene outside the car window.

Chu Xuan nodded, and just about to respond clearly, a building suddenly appeared in his eyes, but he swallowed the clear words in his mouth, and then said: "Stop."

The driver stopped the car on the side of the road.

Concubine Liu Yi turned her head and came over, the sudden stop made her a little bit astonished.

She looked at Chu Xuan, and from the corner of her eye she saw the building and the name on the building through the window on Chu Xuan's side.

"Ah Li Baba?" Concubine Liu Yi blinked, did Chu Xuan stop here to go to Ah Li Baba?
Chu Xuan stretched out his hand to the car lock and said, "Suddenly I remembered something. I happened to pass by Ari Baba to see if Mr. Ma was there."

Concubine Liu Yi opened the car door with him and got out of the car. After meeting, they walked towards Ali Baba Building together.

"What about Alipay?" she asked.

In Chu Xuan's plan, Alipay is a very important part.

Seeing Chu Xuan parked in front of Ali Baba Building, she guessed accordingly.

Chu Xuan let out a "hmm" and dragged Concubine Liu Yi into the building.

"This is the real big boss, will he meet you?" Concubine Liu Yi wondered.

"I don't know." Chu Xuan shook his head.

The girl at the front desk suddenly saw someone coming, and stood up with a standard smile. She was about to say "Hello", but when she saw that it was Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi, she seemed to have misread it, and was stunned for a while.

After confirming that it was these two people, the girl said excitedly: "Chu Xuan? Concubine Liu Yi?"

"Hello." Chu Xuan smiled slightly, and said, "Is Mr. Ma there? If you are, can you make a phone call and say that Chu Xuan from the Brilliant Era is here to visit."

The girl let out an "ah" first, but she didn't expect Chu Xuan to see Mr. Ma.

He said "oh" again, resumed his professional status, picked up the landline and said, "Okay, please wait a moment."

At the same time, the outside of Ali Baba's chairman's office.

The phone rang for a while, and the chief secretary picked up the landline to answer it. After a while, he hung up the phone. He got up and walked to the inner office. After knocking on the door, he heard "Enter", and he pushed the door open.

"President Ma, Chu Xuan from the Brilliant Era is here to visit," he said.

Mr. Ma, who was flipping through the documents, looked up at the secretary, his eyes lost in thought: "Chu...Xuan?"

Mr. Ma confirmed: "That Chu Xuan who created Weiyu?"

"Yes." The secretary nodded.

After getting the confirmation, Mr. Ma nodded slightly, flipping through the documents by himself: "What is he looking for me for?"

Saying this, I can think of Chu Xuan's age, he started Weiyu at the age of 19. Although he didn't know why Chu Xuan came here, he was still interested: "Please come up."

At the front desk in the hall, the girl hung up the phone and said with a sweet smile: "Please wait a moment, Secretary Yang will come and pick you up."

"Thank you." Chu Xuan nodded slightly, and he and Concubine Liu Yi turned around and sat on the sofa in the hall waiting.

After a few minutes, Secretary Yang came down, the two parties greeted each other, and Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi followed him into the elevator.

After reaching the corresponding floor, go straight to the chairman's office.

"Mr. Ma, I'm sorry to bother you when I came to visit you suddenly," Chu Xuan said.

Mr. Ma came over and shook hands with Chu Xuan: "Don't disturb, sit down."

He watched Chu Xuan sit down, looked at him a few times, and remembered that Chu Xuan started from scratch at a young age and developed to where he is now. Although the Internet and entertainment circles are two different circles, it does not prevent him from expressing his gratitude to Chu Xuan for his talent.

At the strategy conference for Xinlang's acquisition of Weiyu, although he and Chu Xuan had met once, they hadn't met at all.

As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to go to the Three Treasures Hall, he also looks forward to Chu Xuan's coming.

"President Chu, what's the good thing about coming to see me suddenly?" He asked with a smile.

In front of this President Ma, Chu Xuan put away his cautious thoughts, and said bluntly: "Your company's Alipay only serves Taobao and Ali Baba. I wonder if President Ma has any idea to open external payment?"

Mr. Ma and his secretary were taken aback for a moment. Chu Xuan directly stated his intentions, which caught them off guard, and what Chu Xuan said bluntly also caught them in a daze.

Alipay? ... Mr. Ma did not expect that Chu Xuan would focus on this third-party payment software.

This software currently only serves the online payment of Taobao and Ali Baba cross-border websites, which is convenient for users to pay and use, so as to beat the competitor ebay with a convenient payment method.

External payment? ...He didn't think about this issue deeply. The market conditions of various industries are too complicated. This is not something that can be easily decided. What is Chu Xuan trying to do?
Mr. Ma laughed and said, "It seems that Mr. Chu wants to enter the Internet industry again?"

Chu Xuan nodded: "I have such an idea recently, but I just need Mr. Ma's help."

Mr. Ma raised his eyebrows, do you have an idea?It seems that Chu Xuan is going to make some moves in a certain Internet industry again?
Chu Xuan didn't say anything, and he didn't ask, he just needed his help, and it was about Alipay, so he said calmly, "How can I help?"

Chu Xuan said: "If a recharge portal is opened on Weiyu, and tens of millions of users of Weiyu will use Alipay to pay, will Mr. Ma be willing to see this scene?"

The secretary's face changed. Now Alipay has only a few million users. Even if netizens shop on Taobao, many people still use online banking instead of Alipay. The trust issue is the key.

If the tens of millions of users of Weiyu can become Alipay users and thus become Taobao users, what does this mean?
Perhaps, Ali Baba can directly defeat ebay.

A fiery flash flashed in Mr. Ma's eyes, before he could not see it, he smiled lightly and said, "I am very willing."

"Then I have a solid idea." Chu Xuan stood up, stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Ma, when my idea is completed, we will talk within this year."

Mr. Ma smiled and nodded, stood up and shook hands with Chu Xuan: "Mr. Chu, I'll wait for you."

Watching Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi leave, he was a little dazed.

Chu Xuan only came for less than two or three minutes, but it brought him a huge surprise.

He is not a person controlled by others, of course it is impossible for Chu Xuan to lead him by the nose just because of Chu Xuan's words.

It was just what Chu Xuan said that inspired him a lot.

"This Chu Xuan..." Mr. Ma shook his head, "You are a talent."

"Mr. Ma." The secretary sent Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi back, wondering, "What does Chu Xuan mean?"

Mr. Ma looked at the scene outside the floor-to-ceiling window, and said to himself: "For external payment, we need to develop a general external payment interface, and at the same time, we need to apply for the interface code from UnionPay."

"The domestic business areas that have the highest demand for online payment, except online shopping..."

He thought for a while, then smiled: "There are also online games!"

Mr. Ma figured out the joint, looked at the secretary and said, "Game companies are currently not qualified to apply for an online payment interface. In order to facilitate payment, Chu Xuan thought of Alipay. If we cooperate with our Alipay, it will be equivalent to bypassing UnionPay. Gone are the tedious links.”

He nodded slowly: "Chu Xuan, he has reached out to the game industry. If our Alipay provides him with a payment channel, which saves users the trouble of going to a physical store to buy a recharge card, he, Chu Xuan, can do something else. I don’t know how he competes with Penguin, Wangyi, and Shengda, it’s interesting.”

Mr. Ma didn't know that what Chu Xuan wanted to do was a web game, and he didn't need to compete with Penguin at all.

The difference in information caused the big boss to make a mistake in his judgment.

"Didn't he say that we'll wait until his idea is finished before we talk about it? We'll see the situation and then we'll decide." The secretary said.

Mr. Ma nodded: "His business has nothing to do with us, it depends on the situation. But the external payment he said must be considered, which is related to the future development of Alipay."

……

Chu Xuan and Concubine Liu Yi walked out of the Ali Baba Building and walked outside the park.

"This President Ma will really wait for us to cooperate?" Concubine Liu Yi frowned while holding Chu Xuan's arm.

This is Ali Baba's boss, the top capital in the country, will he really follow Chu Xuan's words and wait for Chu Xuan's affairs to be completed to cooperate?It feels a bit taken for granted when you think about it.

Chu Xuan shook his head: "How is it possible, he is Ma Yun, how could he be swayed by others, what I said was just to remind him, quickly enable Alipay's external payment business, when the time comes, our web game platform Come out and use it."

Concubine Liu Yi nodded and understood Chu Xuan's intention.

"Then will he open the external payment service?" she asked.

"Yes." Chu Xuan nodded.

"So sure?" Concubine Liu Yi blinked.

Chu Xuan said: "Ali Baba wants to grow, and Alipay's external expansion is an inevitable trend."

Concubine Liu Yi nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

The young couple returned to the nanny car, and while they still had an afternoon, they visited several page game companies in Hangzhou that were on the list.

It's just that these companies don't meet Chu Xuan's psychological expectations, and they are still lagging behind in terms of the strength of game development and the company's development potential.

Of course, he may be wrong in judgment.

But as an investor, he can only think according to the ideas brought about by his own cognition.

Under the agreement between him and Concubine Liu, only three web game companies are needed to join their plan.

The entire city of Hangzhou has found a Legang Technology that meets expectations, so there are still two places left.

There is still some time before the recording of the variety show, and they still have time. The companies in Shenghai, Xiamen and Beijing have not visited yet, so they are not in a hurry.

"How is it, but it's going well?"

In a private room in a restaurant in Wuzhen, Liu Xiaoli waited for two children to come. Seeing the two children walking around in the dust, she couldn't help but smile when she remembered that the two children were still young but had to discuss business with the bosses of various companies.

"Successful." Concubine Liu Yi smiled, and when she sat down, she saw the table full of delicacies, picked up her chopsticks and started: "I'm starving to death."

The private room was filled with heating. Chu Xuan took off his coat and hung it on the back of the chair. After sitting down, he picked up chopsticks to pick up vegetables for dinner, and said, "Go to Shenghai tomorrow morning."

Liu Xiaoli nodded, took a sip of the chicken soup in the bowl, and said, "This place is not far from Shenghai, drive there."

Concubine Liu Yi said while eating, "I have to go to Tang Ren first."

"Tang Ren?" Liu Xiaoli was surprised.

Chu Xuan picked up the red wine glass, and the three members of the family touched each other and took a sip of the red wine.

"The news of our visit to the West Lake spread, and Tang Ren's President Cai also knew that we were in Hangzhou, so he invited us to visit Tang Ren, mainly about "Immortal Sword 3"." Chu Xuan explained.

Liu Xiaoli nodded to express her understanding. As early as when "Zhu Xian" was casting, Tang Ren's President Cai used "Legend of Sword and Sword 3" to exchange resources. She knew this.

Some time ago, I also heard Wang Jinhua say that "Sword of Heaven and Sword 3" has already started, and the investment will be made after the script is coordinated.

It is estimated that Mr. Cai happened to know that Chu Xuan was in Hangzhou, so he wanted to invite Chu Xuan to Tang Ren for a preliminary negotiation.

"Okay, I'll arrange a hotel over there in Shenghai later." Liu Xiaoli said.
