Special troubles of rebirth

After finishing the exchange with Lu Jinwei, Wang Yu returned to the buffet.

At this time, the dinner party was almost over, and the main characters had already left, leaving only a few people still chatting.

Wang Yu glanced around and saw no one he knew, so he turned and left.

On the last day of the forum, Wang Yu basically did not appear in front of the camera. He even took time to go back to the company at noon to deal with some backlogged matters. After all, the engine technology structure adjustment was in progress, and there were many documents that required his review and signature.

By early five o'clock, this forum was actually over, and most of the bosses who were nearby had returned directly.

All capital institutions, regardless of whether they gained something or not, also left the Xijiao Hotel. Only the media people showed excitement on their faces.

Because they knew that tonight there was a private small-scale gathering of Internet industry bigwigs. Although no media was invited to participate, they were still waiting at the Xijiao Hotel, hoping to catch the big news.

At early six o'clock, in a single-family villa deep in the Xijiao Hotel, seven people, Wang Yu, Jack Ma, Xiao Ma, Zhang Chaoyang, Robin Li, Cao Guowei, and Ding Lei, gathered together. Everyone was wearing casual clothes and their faces were full of smiles. Full of smiles.

After three rounds of drinking, as the host, Wang Yu seemed to be invisible, and it was Jack Ma who talked endlessly at the dinner table.

"Do you know why Tmall was established? My Taobao model was C2C at first, and now it has realized the B2C model through Tmall. The majority of small and medium-sized enterprises in the future will be grateful for the birth of Tmall!"

Jack Ma's words were filled with passion, just like his speaking style.

“In the final analysis, the transformation from C2C ​​to B2C still plays a key role in the platform.”

Ding Lei interjected: "In fact, Guoke e-commerce platform has already implemented the B2C model, but many of its products are not enterprises, but farmers and small workshops. Is your Tmall imitating Mr. Wang's idea?"

these two people

There were many famous dinner parties in previous lives, such as Dongxing Dinner, but the most famous one is Ding Lei Dinner.

However, Ding Lei, who is also a Zhejiang businessman, has never invited Jack Ma to participate. For this reason, there are many rumors and speculations from the outside world.

But the most reliable of these rumors are some of the grievances between the two.

Ding Lei and Jack Ma originally had a good relationship. In the early days when Jack Ma founded Alibaba, Ding Lei was supportive of him. After all, Ding Lei became successful earlier. When he ascended to the throne of China's richest man, Jack Ma was just a relative at best. A moderately famous entrepreneur.

But then something happened that slowly alienated the relationship between the two.

This incident happened in 2005. At that time, the war between Taobao and eBay was in full swing. Taobao was banned from advertising by eBay. Jack Ma had no choice but to use his connections to contact major portals, hoping that they would accept Taobao's advertising, including Ding Lei. The person in charge of the portal website agreed.

But at this time, a turning point occurred. eBay spent a lot of money and told major portals that as long as they did not advertise on Taobao, eBay would double the advertising fee. In the face of huge interests, Ding Lei was the first to regret and let Jack Ma go.

Although they were discussing business, this incident left a big knot in Jackma's heart.

Another conjecture that seems more reliable is also quite interesting.

Ding Lei started his career earlier than Jack Ma, and even supported him. However, things have changed. In the future, Alibaba will be several times larger than NetEase in terms of size and market value. Jack Ma's personal influence far exceeds that of Ding Lei. As a "senior" ", Ding Lei will have a bit of a psychological gap.

Judging from Wang Yu's personal conjecture, it may be the combination of multiple factors that led to a bit of discord between the two.

Hearing Ding Lei's comments, Jack Ma raised the corner of his mouth and smiled and said: "I don't deny that Mr. Wang has a certain way of thinking about the Internet. Many novel concepts are also very eye-catching, but when it comes to e-commerce, Whether it’s size or innovative thinking, it all depends on us on Taobao!”

“There are too many fakes on Taobao!”

Ding Lei pointedly poked at Jack Ma's weakness: "Look at the slowly rising JD.com and Mr. Wang's Guoke e-commerce platform. They are both building their own complete logistics systems and paying great attention to the quality of the products on the platforms. quality"

Jack Ma didn’t take it seriously: “The original intention of Taobao is to create an online Yiwu, pursuing low-cost and high-quality products. We also have Tmall!”

When talking about Tmall, the corners of Jackma's mouth raised slightly.

Wang Yu frowned and thought for a while. At this time, Zhang Chaoyang beside him happened to reach out with his chopsticks to pick up the food. The Double 11 Shopping Festival inexplicably flashed into Wang Yu's mind.

It seems that the time was November 2009, 11, when Tmall launched the Double Eleven Shopping Carnival. From then on, the hand-buying party was born!

When Jack Ma and Ding Lei were bickering, Xiao Ma, who was on the other side of Wang Yu, turned to Wang Yu and said, "What do you think of my proposal last time?"

In the impression of outsiders, Tencent is still struggling in the QQ game hall. In fact, it has signed a 2007D game with Bangziguo as early as 2, which is the well-known "Dungeon and Fighter". Since the launch of the national server in 2008 , slowly became popular in the market, and now the trend can be seen.

By 2010, this game became completely popular and brought huge returns to Tencent Games.

In fact, from around 08 to 10, Tencent realized the importance of this big piece of the game market and began to pay attention to it until it became one of the giants in the domestic game industry.

Different from Xiao Ma, after entering 09, Wang Yu has actually adopted a free-range model for Guoke games, and basically does not care much about the specific development business. After all, several popular games are continuing, and not only Whether it is internal development or external agency, they all follow the rhythm.

In his estimation, in the next five years, Guoke Game can provide him with profits that support the industries involved in the southwest chip layout!

Wang Yu had heard about Nanshan Pizza Hut's dominance in the gaming industry.

Nanshan Pizza Hut relies on hundreds of millions of QQ users. If it cooperates with them, it will either lose a lot of profits or wait to be copied.

Based on these perceptions, Wang Yu smiled and said tactfully: "Engine Technology is undergoing structural adjustments recently. All the companies below are being spun off. At this stage, I really can't take care of it. We will wait until the structural adjustment is completed." Let’s talk!”

Brother Xiao Ma blinked, looking at Wang Yu's expression, he muttered inwardly.

Is this a polite rejection, or is it really inconvenient due to structural adjustments?

As a giant in the Internet industry, Engine Technology's every move has attracted the attention of the mass media and the industry. The structural adjustment mentioned by Wang Yu is indeed true. Brother Xiao Ma also knows about it, so he was not sure about Wang Yu for a while. Attitude.

Zhang Chaoyang was on the side with his ears pricked up. Wang Yu made it clear in front of him last night that he was not prepared to cooperate with Brother Ma on the big cake of games, so he interrupted to change the topic. : "Look at Lao Ma and Lao Ding, you two, they are fighting!"

At this time, both Wang Yu and Xiao Ma returned their attention to the table and found that Jack Ma and Ding Lei were really arguing about the previous topic.

"I said, as long as Taobao continues this model, there will inevitably be models that are more sinking than yours in the future. By then, your Tmall will be high up, competing with Guoke Electronics and JD.com, and Taobao will slowly be hollowed out. user"

Ding Lei pointed out the situation unceremoniously and described the future in his imagination.

Wang Yu opened his mouth slightly. If the environment hadn't allowed it, he would have really wanted to give Ding Lei a thumbs up!

Indeed, C2C e-commerce platforms such as Pinxixi emerged later, which were deeper than Taobao.

In the Alibaba system, Tmall has indeed been developed, and has surpassed Taobao in many data aspects, which directly led to the Alibaba system being divided into the Taobao faction and the Tmall faction.

For a long time, Alibaba's resources have been tilted towards Tmall, which directly caused Taobao to begin to shrink.

Before Wang Yu was reborn, Jack Ma summoned Lao Cai to take charge of Alibaba again, hoping to make strategic adjustments to rejuvenate Taobao. As for the result, Wang Yu didn't see it, because he was reborn overnight!

Just seeing the potential crisis in Ding Lei's words, Wang Yu has to give him a thumbs up, this guy has a very keen sense of smell!

But how could he possibly convince Jack Ma?

In the next 10 years, this "national father" was at his peak. In the changing situation, Ma Ma was once suppressed by his halo. Although during that time, Tencent's scale and size were not inferior to Alibaba. .

The two of them insisted on their own opinions, and the atmosphere of the drinking party finally began to look awkward.

Fortunately, Wang Yu stood up and raised his glass to toast, so that the scene did not turn into a vegetable market, but then the wine bureau would definitely not be able to drink any more.

So a classic scene appeared. The first forum conference spontaneously organized by the Internet industry ended unhappy at the last drink!

The boss is the boss, and his face was solemn just a few minutes ago, but as soon as he left the villa, he started walking around in twos and threes, talking and laughing, leaving the media who had been waiting outside for several hours alone.

"The grudge between them has been planted for a long time!"

Zhang Chaoyang and Wang Yu, who were the last to leave, walked side by side on the garden road. As they walked, they whispered: "I guess it is absolutely impossible to see them at the same table at the next wine party. If you hadn't stood up tonight, It’s possible to flip the table over.”

"Thanks for what happened just now!"

Wang Yu mentioned the incident where Zhang Chaoyang helped him out just now.

"Your refusal is very vague, isn't it?"

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Be careful of sending wrong information. Brother Xiao Ma will come back to you later to see how you handle it."

“I won’t have a chance to mention it later.”

Wang Yu smiled: "The game "Dungeon & Fighter" he represents will soon become a hit. Once the market triggers Tencent's internal views on the game industry, do you think they will still be willing to share the cake with others?"

Zhang Chaoyang was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, among us, who doesn't want to eat alone?"

After being quiet for only three seconds, Lao Zhang spoke again: "With Tmall's model and the existence of Taobao, where will the Guoke e-commerce platform go next?"

Faced with Zhang Chaoyang's concern, Wang Yu smiled.

This happened because Lao Zhang's pair of chopsticks tonight triggered his memories.

It seems that I have to take some action.
