Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 425 The Beginning of Time Financing

Qu Li's invitation to Ali and Ma Yun to join the construction of the "Zhongguo Intelligent Logistics Backbone Network" is a conspiracy. No matter whether they agree or not, as long as they are tempted, they may overturn.

First of all, the conflict between Ali and Yahoo is inevitable. No matter how the upcoming Alipay crisis is handled, it will definitely involve the energy of the company's management. Under the influence of Jumei Juhuasuan, Taobao and Tianmao's revenue is definitely not as good as in its previous life. So if you want to invest in logistics but are short of money, what should Ahri do?

"Cost reduction and efficiency improvement" and "increase in revenue and expenditure reduction". Considering that Tianmao still needs to compete with Jumei, increasing the margin, commission and service fee ratio of third-party sellers to make more money has become their inevitable choice.

If we usually think about it carefully, can the Ahri team really stay calm and calm when all kinds of things happen this year?As long as the methods are blunt, Taobao's "October Siege" incident may break out in advance.

If Ahri is not fooled and they don't build the backbone logistics network for the time being, then Jumei can raise the flag first, take advantage of public opinion, seize the best warehousing and logistics resources in the country, and attract the most express companies to join. Ahri can't just talk empty words. Just let the express delivery companies reject Jumei’s good intentions, right?

Qu Li doesn’t know what choice Ma Yun and Ah Li will make. Anyway, Honor will promote this matter. For this reason, he will even take out the funds he invested in A shares through Xiangjiang Wealth and inject them into the logistics backbone network project.

Although the investment income of 10 times in 10 years is large, Qu Li has enough money and there is no future for him to be a miser. Wouldn't it be more valuable to use this money to leverage more social resources?Isn’t Time WeChat delicious?

Qu Li returned to Xingsha, and venture capital institutions such as Sequoia, IDG, and Hillhouse came to visit. The two most important assets of Time Network are not here. Books, movies, and videos are not as good as Douban. It would be better to say that you are investing in Qu Li.

"Time focuses on the mobile Internet and does not pay much attention to the PC side..."

A few VCs took a look at the website design and it made sense.

"The book, video and audio content is on the genuine route. It was originally intended to be a value-added service for Jumei members, but we calculated that we can do it for books and music, and cooperate with Youku for film and television. We mainly make money through publishing, ticketing and live events. Well, still There are mobile games…”

I originally wanted Jinshan Xishanju to develop "parkour" and "escape" games, but one time I accidentally mentioned to the person in charge, Zou Tao, that the developer of "Minecraft" was his brother-in-law. This man immediately ran to Chengdu, and in the end he somehow deceived him. , actually acquired my brother-in-law’s company.

Qu Li asked Shiguang to spend money to buy the project of "Parkour" and "Escape" games, and hired a programmer who was willing to work in Xingsha to join Shiguang Company to recruit a team for development.The purpose of this is obvious. How can WeChat’s huge traffic be converted into income?Of course it depends on games and advertising.

"The basic idea is that books, videos, and videos attract traffic. Publishing, ticketing, live events, and even possible e-commerce are actually services that can bring relatively stable profits. Monetization through mobile games can increase imagination..."

"Needless to say the significance of WeChat. The development team is in Yangcheng. It is currently No. [-] in the world and maintains the lead in multiple markets, such as the United States, Japan and China..."

"There is also an Instagram photo wall, which is an information flow picture socialization and life communication application. It now has more than 1000 million users. With the increase of content, the future development will be faster and faster..."

“Compared to WeChat and Instagram, the profit potential is greater. When necessary, WeChat can be used to divert traffic to Instagram…”

"The development team of Instagram is very good. The person in charge used to be the CTO of Kuxun. He is very capable and has sharp thinking..." Qu Li introduced his people

"I know that he is the only Jumei team leader who works in Honor." Someone said

"Well, it seems that the place has changed now." Qu Li didn't expect that people would even pay attention to these small things. Hey, at a certain level, in a circle, many things have no secrets.

After Qu Li introduced Shiguang Company, the venture capital company learned through various channels after leaving. Because there is a large amount of overseas business, overseas venture capital companies need to be directly involved, and it will not be decided for a while.

Jumei Logistics doesn’t have to worry about its own expansion, but it would be troublesome to cooperate with external express companies. If we really want to join Ali, who will be the leader and who will listen to the openness of technology?There are many disadvantages of cooperation between large enterprises, and it is difficult for Internet companies to avoid them.Ma Yun hasn't agreed yet, and with Lu Qi in charge, Qu Li doesn't have to worry for the time being.

So I came to Qiancheng Xingsha Research Institute. Due to the unexpected popularity of Qiancheng CS6, the Haval H6 led by Qu Li was upgraded again. It was initially named Qiancheng CS8. In appearance, it is different from the chrome-plated grille of CS6. CS8 uses a mesh grille. shape design.The name was no longer called "Long Yan", but changed to "Butterfly Wings".

By the way, Qiancheng's pure electric car doesn't need an air intake, so why does it need an air intake?Is it for good looks? Qu Li didn't understand and didn't ask.

This Qiancheng CS8 was unveiled at the Yangcheng Auto Show in March. It has two displacements, 1.8 and 2.0, with optional turbocharging, which is closer to the later Volkswagen Tiguan.

The grid-style design brings enough buzz, but beauty is only one of the references for consumers to buy cars. Qiancheng Motor's engines and transmissions are from others, and it has absorbed a lot of Mitsubishi's successful experience.

In terms of mechanical performance, it is considered to be cost-effective among models priced under RMB 20. Consumers must rely on their sense of technology to decide to buy CS8.Honor's "tablet" is installed in Qiancheng's cars. In addition to more advanced navigation and assisted driving functions, it can also control the air conditioner, raise and lower windows, view reversing images and other simple operations through voice.

More cameras are not the selling point of Qiancheng Auto. The ergonomic sofa and central control screen can be connected to the Internet and can be upgraded through OTA, including KOS and voice assistant Kunlun.Note that the vehicle system of Qiancheng CS8 is QNX, and only the central control screen is KOS.

The cooperation between Honor and Qiancheng Automobile has just begun, and there are still many shortcomings. However, even so, it has still caused widespread discussion on the Internet and in the media. Is Honor really preparing to enter the automobile market?

A reporter in Pengcheng took the opportunity to ask Qu Li, and his reply was: "We are in the stage of technology accumulation and will not cooperate with car companies other than Qiancheng within three years..."

"Three years later?"

"It depends on the situation. We have not ruled out the possibility of Honor directly building cars. Everything is being explored. Our development direction is to electrify, intelligent, and connect cars. We will give priority to high-performance pure electric cars and give consideration to fuel cars... "

“Will Qiancheng Motor’s pure electric vehicles be launched this year?”

"Don't rush me, work slowly and carefully. We want to be the leader in the industry. Many things are being explored. Don't compare us with other pure electric brands. If you like their cars, we can build them in minutes." Although Qu Li was bragging, no one refuted it. Honor's ability to develop operating systems and chips, as well as the world's first voice assistant, gave the Chinese people great confidence.

"The automotive industry is different from the mobile phone industry. Various technologies are more mature and more difficult to subvert. Therefore, it is unrealistic for Qiancheng's pure electric vehicles to directly subvert the existing automotive industry. Through continuous upgrades and iterations, we can step by step surpass all fuel vehicles in the world. brand." Qu Li added, although Qiancheng has not even let the public see the shadow of pure electric vehicles, I just want to continue to strengthen the concept of pure electric vehicles. Otherwise, how can you equate pure electric vehicles with Qiancheng Motors?

I feel yang and it’s quite uncomfortable. I don’t know how many days it will take to get better. I can save the manuscript for three days.
