Chapter 133 When Li Xun Is Angry, The Entire Internet Industry Will Tremble.
Brother Dong couldn't find any reason to reject Li Xun.
Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang and set fire to the Three Kingdoms.
Li Xun hired Dong Ge in Zhongguancun. He spent 100 million US dollars to invest in Shunfeng and bought the four major express delivery companies from Tonglu County.
It only took two months to reintegrate the private express delivery industry with the help of the four major express delivery leaders.
Lao Ma, who was far away in West Lake City, also vaguely heard the news that someone was integrating the express delivery industry.
And the other party is doing things under Long Teng's name.
The young man with a strong charlatan attitude called everyone he met that his boss was Li Xun and introduced himself as the boss of Jingdong Mall.
Jingdong Mall?
What is the difference from Taobei Mall?
This made Lao Ma feel the crisis.
Lao Cai, the vice president who had just joined the company not long ago, also brought bad news.
The fourth negotiation between Longteng and SoftBank broke down again, and the two parties have not yet reached an agreement on the 35% transaction price of Ahri.
"Longteng is insisting on US$100 million, while SoftBank is willing to offer up to US$40 million."
Lao Cai said a little confused: "Isn't it good to break up peacefully with 40 million? Can Li Xun withdraw with dignity?"
"Humph, you still don't understand Li Xun. He is deliberately delaying our Series A financing!"
Lao Ma, who was determined, gathered his eighteen Arhats and planned to hold a meeting behind closed doors.
"Everyone, Ahri, has reached the critical moment of life and death. We must immediately launch the Taobei Mall that we have been preparing for a long time!"
The Eighteen Arhats were all stunned. Their financial situation has been very tight recently. Taobei Mall's advertising investment is an astronomical figure. Can Ahri survive this hurdle?
Moreover, their opponent was Jingdong Mall, which was fully invested by Longteng. They directly bought three links and one express. Even Shunfeng got their shares. It is not an exaggeration to say that they have unified the private express delivery industry.
It goes without saying that express delivery is important to online retail.
What they can rely on now is Lao Post. The speed of Lao Post is extremely slow, and it is difficult for express delivery to arrive every day or eight days.
Will users be satisfied with this speed?
Their initial confidence in Ahri began to waver.
What made them tangled was that JD.com also sent them an invitation, directly offering a monthly salary of tens of thousands of dollars.
At Ali, they are all entrepreneurs. Although they are paid very high salaries as executives, they still live a hard life.
By agreeing to JD.com's invitation, they can rise to the top in one step and become the golden collars envied by everyone in the country.
Facing the real temptation of money, the Eighteen Arhats were in extreme pain at this time.
On one side is Ali, who is facing a major challenge, and on the other side is the rising JD.com. They must make decisions in a short time.
Lao Ma saw everyone's expressions.
In his heart, he began to regret for the momentary fever.
I really didn't expect Li Xun's reaction to be so big.
The backhand gave him and Ahri a fatal blow.
Seeing that morale was so low, Lao Ma's expression softened and he comforted everyone:
"Don't worry about the money issue. Lao Cai and I will continue to find solutions, but Taobei Mall must be online within seven days.
Now the competition with JD.com is about who is faster, and what they are fighting for is the starting advantage.
Everyone seemed to see the energetic and eloquent Mr. Ma again, and they all said yes.
After the meeting, Lao Cai, who had just joined Ali, stayed.
This person's previous annual salary was as high as 700,000 US dollars. He originally planned to represent AB Investment Company to see if Ali had any investment value.
As a result, I was deeply attracted by Ahri's explosive potential. If Ahri truly becomes the dominant player in the domestic retail industry, the future will be bright.
He resolutely gave up his annual salary of US$700,000 to join this young entrepreneurial team.
It was also he who advised Lao Ma to find more capital for Series A financing, and Ali could not be controlled by Longteng Capital.
Unexpectedly, he was immediately taught a lesson by the big chaebol Li Xun.
Now this situation has something to do with him, so now he sees Lao Ma struggling to support himself, his eyes full of apologies.
"Lao Cai, you don't have to worry. The capital is waiting and watching. As long as Li Xun lifts the ban on us, we will naturally find funds, and Ahri still has hope to take off again."
"Brother, what's your plan?"
Lao Ma said to the balcony with his hands behind his back: "I want to apologize to Li Xun in front of all the startup companies in the Longteng family. As a big shot, he should choose to let us go."
Lao Cai nodded, this is a good idea. If Lao Ma can put down his face, Li Xun, as a big shot, should show the magnanimity of a big shot.
The old horse with countermeasures began to waver.
"Brother Ma, that's it, I plan to..."
Xiao Ma, who is opposite, sympathizes with Lao Ma immensely. We are all entrepreneurs, so of course we know the hardships involved. For the sake of past friendship, he plans to help Lao Ma overcome the current difficulties.
"Are you Mr. Qiu from Jinshan? I am Lao Ma, can you please...
Two days later, Li Xun received an invitation from Shanghai's Ma Ma.
Seeing that the distance was not very far, he happily went to the appointment.
Unexpectedly, Brother Xiaoma invited Qiu Bojun and Rebus from Jinshan.
And Robin, the founder of Qiandu.
There was also an unknown Internet elite at the dinner party.
Brother Xiao Ma introduced Li Xun:
"This is Chaoyang, the founder of Sohu search engine."
Li Xun certainly knows the famous Chaoyang Brother, and Sohu is also on his list of investors.
Unexpectedly, he also attended the Soaring Dragon dinner party today.
"Hello, Mr. Li." Brother Chaoyang was used to being casual, but when he saw Li Xun, he immediately stood up and hurriedly talked to Li Xun.
"Okay, I didn't expect you to be here, Chaoyang. We can have a good chat later."
Robin also works as a search engine, so he immediately put himself on guard.
He stepped in between the two of them and took Li Xun to chat about Qiandu's business progress.
Brother Chaoyang looked embarrassed. They have been enemies since ancient times. In order to meet Li Xun, he had to rely on many connections.
"Mr. Li, according to the plan, I have...
Before Robin finished speaking, the door of the box was pushed open, and the person who came was Lao Ma with a smile on his face.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Li Xun.
Li Xun's face froze and he asked Brother Ma: "What does this mean?"
He really didn't want to see this old horse who had changed his mind again.
"Mr. Li, I asked Brother Ma to do this so that you could apologize in person.
"Apologize?"
Li Xun sneered and said: "There's no need for it. In business, there's nothing wrong with you, Lao Ma."
"Then why do you want to support another JD.com?"
"Could it be that after investing in you Ahri, I can no longer invest in other online retail malls?"
"I invest in the entire online retail industry, and I am optimistic about Longguo's future market.
Li Xun's words left Lao Ma speechless.
Without waiting for his reaction, Li Xun acted like a big boss and said to everyone:
"Everyone happens to be here, so I will make it clear to you today. I, Li Xun, will never hang myself on a tree. Don't think that just because I am optimistic about you, you can do whatever you want. If I can invest in Qiandu, I can invest in Sohu. , if I can invest in Penguin, I can support another social platform. If you have other ideas with my Longteng money, don’t blame me for turning against me!"
Everyone couldn't help but tremble slightly. With Lao Ma's example in front of them, how could they dare to have any other thoughts.
It seemed that the Jitian chaebol was really angry.
Not even Lao Ma dared to contradict Li Xun at this time...
I could only pick up a bottle of white wine, open the cap, and drink most of the bottle.
"I know that no matter how much I say, I won't be able to get Mr. Li's forgiveness. I just hope that Mr. Li will leave Ah Li a way to survive for the sake of the past."
Everyone sympathized with Lao Ma. Brother Ma hurriedly snatched the bottle from Lao Ma's hand, laughed and said:
"Mr. Li, Lao Ma drank too much today. Don't argue with him. Since he already knows that he was wrong, it's not too late now...
"Okay, I'll forgive you just once, but I want to make a bet with Lao Ma. Even if I don't destroy Ahri's Series A financing, Ahri and JD.com will definitely lose within three years if they compete on the same stage!"
"You are the witnesses of this bet!"
After drinking some wine, Lao Ma suddenly felt a little drunk. He pushed away Xiao Ma who was supporting him and said proudly:
"Okay, since Mr. Li wants to bet, I will take it. What if JD.com loses?"
"Then I will participate in Ahri's B-round financing on behalf of Longteng. If Ahri loses, "You will withdraw from the domestic market!"
Everyone felt guilty after hearing this. It would be even more uncomfortable to withdraw from the domestic market than to kill them. What they value is the domestic blue ocean.
Let my old horse withdraw from the domestic market?
Lao Ma's heart suddenly turned upside down, and he could only bite the bullet and said: "Okay, I accept this bet!"
After saying this, Lao Ma could no longer restrain himself and vomited all over the floor.
This was the first time for everyone to see Lao Ma in such a miserable state.
They were no longer in the mood to eat and chat.
This scene also served as a wake-up call to everyone present.
Li Xun is not an enemy, let alone an angel investor.
It's okay to call him a devil investor.
If they are half-hearted and have any small thoughts, Lao Ma will be their fate!
If they have different intentions, they must be prepared to make a clean break with Li Xun. Do they have the ability to withstand Li Xun's backlash?
Brother Ma suddenly shuddered when he thought of Li Xun's business ideas that turned stone into gold.
The two bosses of Jinshan Group also saw the devilish side of Li Xun, an angel investor.
Robin was frightened. He suspected that Li Xun was trying to scare the monkeys. Not just one or two companies had come to talk to him about investment recently.
This is the first time Chaoyang has seen the magnificence of this capital tycoon. He is yearning for it but timid at the same time. If he absorbs Longteng's investment, he must be prepared to be tied into the War 3.4 car.
Li Xun lost the mood to eat, got up and left directly.
Brother Xiaoma and Qiu Bojun still want to give it away.
I was directly pushed away by Li Xun. This group of people was so shameless that they even united with a traitor to serve him food. Without beating him, they didn't know the temper of Li Xun, the big chaebol!
Qiu Bojun and Xiao Ma were both stunned in place. They really shouldn't have waded into this muddy water in the first place. Now that they have annoyed the boss behind the scenes, the days to come may be difficult.
Chaoyang followed, however, and he was determined to seize this opportunity.
Otherwise, it may be difficult to see Li Xun again.
"Mr. Li, I have prepared a Patty for you, as well as a few celebrities to accompany you. You must come..."
What surprised Chaoyang was that Li Xun, who had left the box, looked at him with a smile without any signs of irritation.
"Forget it Patty, you can get in my car and let's talk."
"Mr. Li, have you ever considered investing in another search engine?" Chaoyang asked anxiously.
"No!"
In one sentence, Chaoyang suppressed all the words he had just prepared.
This Mr. Li is really straightforward.
"Then why did you..."
"Brother Chaoyang, you can actually consider building Sohu into a comprehensive portal.
Comprehensive portal website, this term is a bit unfamiliar to Chaoyang. .
