Ma Yun has become increasingly unable to sit still these days.
He was aware of the news about Xiaoyao Mall, but before that, he never thought that the model of Amazon and Lotte would have such a big impact on his Taobao.com.
Because Taobao.com itself does not conduct any business activities, but provides a trading platform for everyone to do business on, the business methods and profit models of the two are different.
But as various newspapers exposed the tip of the iceberg, the more Ma Yun read, the more he felt that this online b2c sales model, that is, the "company to consumer" model, is likely to snatch away the share that Taobao.com has not noticed.
.
Ma Yun was born with a keen sense of smell. He thought of Gome and Suning, which had defeated the electrical appliance department of People's Shopping Mall in one fell swoop. If Xiaoyao Mall really succeeded in making Gome and Suning online, then more home users would
, but I was attracted by them!
In China's shopping world, those with the strongest desire to shop are naturally the young people who are just starting out. They are keen on all kinds of shopping. The cheaper, the more dazzling, the more convenient and faster shopping, which for them is
The most attractive, so most of them are invested in Taobao, and with the financial crisis in recent years, they have learned to be more careful with their budgets and invested more purchasing funds in Taobao.
But if we say that those with the strongest shopping ability, that is, those with the strongest economic strength, are naturally individuals based on the family unit.
They buy household appliances, daily necessities, etc. This is the most stable and profitable place to buy.
Usually when these people buy things, they are not as demanding as young people. They have to shop around, and if it costs a dollar more, you will have to worry about it for a long time; what they care about is only the authenticity of the product, and the convenience of transportation, installation and warranty after purchase. As for
Price, etc. As long as it's cheaper than in big shopping malls, that's fine.
For other electronic products with higher value, people are more willing to trust physical stores. After all, if there is a problem, they can still find someone. When buying things online, if there is a problem, you can only cry.
Take mobile phones, for example. Through data monitoring, Ma Yun clearly knows that the number of people who buy mobile phones on Taobao can only be one-tenth of all the people who buy mobile phones, and tens of millions of them are sold every year.
Sold in Wan's physical stores.
And calculated this way, if Xiaoyao Mall's mobile phones are as cheap as they say, the sales volume of millions of units will be casual.
Everyone knows how profitable mobile phones are!
In addition to mobile phones, there are also various laptops, rice cookers, air conditioners... and other household appliances. Once they conquer this market, B2C's dominance will be established!
Unfortunately, Alibaba Group currently does not have sufficient funds. After supporting the country's unique c2c overlord Taobao.com, there is no way to do this kind of b2c business.
I heard that Xiaoyao Mall’s first batch of purchases reached an astonishing 50 billion yuan. How domineering is this?
Having the world's richest boss as your backer gives you really different confidence!
For a moment, Ma Yun was a little envious of Qin Yibin, and the thought "actually it's not bad to have such a major shareholder" flashed through his mind.
But after all, Ma Yun is a person with a very strong desire to control. After thinking about it like this, he returned to his right path.
SoftBank Group has transferred 30% of its Alibaba shares to two major funds controlled by Xiao Qi: Qicai Investment and Mingxiang Holdings, but the news is still kept secret. It is said that Xiao Qi will wait until an appropriate time to announce it.
Sun Zhenyi could only cooperate with his ideas.
In other words, from now on, Xiao Qi is actually Alibaba's largest private controlling shareholder. Because all his money belongs to him, but 40% of Yahoo's belongs to the entire company.
At this time, Ma Yun had already discovered the news that Xiao Qi once wanted to spend 10 billion US dollars to purchase 40% of Alibaba's shares from Yahoo, which made his hair stand on end.
Fortunately, Yang Zhiyuan is not a softie like Sun Zhenyi, and was forced by Xiao Qi to sell his shares. From this point of view, Director Yang is also a good man, a real man!
But thinking about it, maybe it was because Xiao Qi ran into a wall with Yang Zhiyuan that he changed his strategy and used a trick to trick Sun Zhenyi, who was even more stubborn than Yang Zhiyuan, right?
Here is a second of silence for poor teacher Sun Zhenyi.
In connection with the two acquisitions, Ma Yun's fear of Xiao Qi has reached the extreme.
Ma Yun didn't know why Xiao Qi was so optimistic about his Alibaba Group, but he himself was very optimistic about his Internet empire business, so he also thought that Xiao Qi was interested in the business opportunities in it and wanted to use this to take Alibaba away.
The group gathered into its own fairy lineage.
However, how could Ma Yun be someone willing to be inferior to others?
What he aspires to do in his life is to be the overlord of a party, and to be the overlord who can do things that others cannot do. How could he let Xiao Qi control what he does?
Although he is not as rich as Xiao Qi, Ma Yun's heart is no smaller than Xiao Qi's!
After seeing the news that the contracted iPhone had landed at Xiaoyao Mall, Ma Yun finally couldn't sit still and asked someone to book a flight from Lin'an to Chengcheng in two days.
He was going to meet this legendary boy who was even more talented than himself!
…
Coincidentally, another giant in China's communications field, Liansu, cannot sit still.
When they chose the 3G network, they still chose the CDMA network as in the previous life.
Although Dentsu has chosen the cdma network, because the cdma network is the most popular and best-used network in the world, and it contains the intellectual property rights of the company controlled by Xiao Qi, this technology has already been used by the government through secret channels.
The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has given the green light in this regard, allowing the two major operators to operate the same network.
The biggest advantage of the cdma network is its strong signal transmission capability. This is exactly the network that matches smartphones and is destined to shine in the era of smart electronics.
Unfortunately, except for providing some 3G services for Dreampad, the entire Hua Guolian 3G network is in a suspended state, and there is no chance to show its strength at all.
iPhone is not considered as a contract phone at all. The only Samsung S1 smartphone was snatched away by Dentsu. Like China Mobile, they can only watch helplessly.
Now Apple's iPhone has actually appeared in Dentsu's mobile contract phone business, and it is said that Fairy's Dreamstars smartphones will also be available as Dentsu's contract phone. Dentsu has taken advantage of all the good things, so how can we get it?
After emergency consultations, Gu Weikang, the president of Huaguolian Digital, personally led a team to Chengdu, vowing to reverse the unfavorable situation! (To be continued...)
