How did I become a god

Chapter 310 The Curtain ([-])

With the current communication conditions, the news that Jing Gao refused to "reconcile" with Ali spread in a very short time.Everyone who pays attention to the merger between Didi and Uber knows the news almost immediately.

The night in central Beijing is dim, and the lights in the high-rise buildings are lit up.

Xie Shihuang also invited Cheng Wei and Wang Gang to play cards in the living room of the villa hotel where he was staying.At this time, the mobile phone placed on the table suddenly rang.He connected the phone, and the anxious voice of his subordinates came from inside, "Mr. Xie, Jing Gao rejected Mr. Ai's conversation, and even humiliated him in public."

The subordinate was still talking about grievances on the phone, Xie Shihuang interrupted: "Okay, I understand." Then he hung up the phone.

Cheng Wei and Wang Gang combined the cards in their hands, put them on the table, and looked at Xie Shihuang eagerly. "Mr. Xie, how is the situation at the Pangu Seven Star Hotel?"

Xie Shihuang smiled, and said slowly: "Jing Gao refused to cooperate with us Ali. Hey, what are you doing in a daze, and then continue playing cards. Always be calm when you are faced with a major event."

Cheng Wei and Wang Gang who said this were both wryly smiling.But Mr. Xie's slow temper is also well-known within Ali.He could only continue to play cards with Xie Shihuang absent-mindedly.

At the square card table in the hotel room, while playing cards, Xie Shihuang slowly explained: "You two, don't worry. What you have to worry about now is Jing Gao. I can clearly say that Alipay and Uber don't I want to use it. How about it, will it help your competition? I have to wait and see if Jing Gao will call me privately to explain. He has my phone number. Really not, I will Report to Teacher Ma. In the competition in the Internet field, who did we Ali fear? Weren’t Amazon, the world’s largest market value, taken back by us?”

Cheng Wei and Wang Gang pondered.

Banning Alipay actually has a limited impact on Uber.In the competition between Uber and Didi, both have their own apps.Alipay's diversion effect is limited.Moreover, in the domestic payment field, everyone has a WeChat account, and Alipay does not occupy an absolute dominant position in the payment field.

However, the move to ban Alipay is tantamount to Alibaba personally ending the game and standing behind Didi against Phoenix Fund.So, does Ali have a chance of winning?

No matter from which aspect, from the corporate governance structure and system, from the perspective and capabilities of the company's leadership, from the technology reserves of the company, from the combat effectiveness of employees, from the amount of funds that can be mobilized, etc., Ali has an overall advantage!What does Phoenix Fund have?
The two nodded in conviction.

However, until the next morning, Xie Shihuang did not wait for Jing Gao's impossible call.

At night, the lights of Victoria Harbor are bright and the sea breeze is gentle.

Liu Qing and her friend Guo Lingyu drank red wine on the balcony of the suite in the Peninsula Hotel, watching the sea view at night.Liu Qing has been in a bad mood since meeting Jing Gao the day before yesterday, so she came to Hong Kong Island to find friends to relax.

Guo Lingyu was 30 years old at the time, but she was well maintained, like a beauty in her 20s, with bright eyes and white teeth, and jade-like skin.At the beginning of October, when the capital and Shanghai are in autumn, you can still wear single clothes at night on Hong Kong Island.She was wearing a water blue blouse, and her curves were tall.Wearing white shorts, her slender, snow-white legs overlapped.Reassuring Liu Qing, "Jean, don't worry about it. Wait until the results come out tonight."

She can understand Liu Qing's anxiety, which is related to her career.It can be said that the position of Didi president is equivalent to the height of her life.What if you lose it?It's hard to get back up.

Liu Qing shook her head with a wry smile, picked up the wine glass, and sipped the wine, "lili, you have met Jing Gao. He is a bit stubborn. I don't think he will change his mind."

The day before yesterday, she met Cheng Wei and Mr. Xie with Jing Gao at Xianghe Golf Club. Jing Gao gave a very strong answer: after the merger of Didi and Uber, she and Cheng Wei were required to bring Didi The core management team departed.A buffer period of half a year to one year can be given.

This undoubtedly cut off her career path.It's no wonder she feels better.

She wasn't even in the mood to call Mr. Yang (Yuan Qing) of Lenovo.Even if Ali came forward, he couldn't reach an agreement, so he still expected Jing Gao to give Uncle Yang face?

Thinking of the two meetings with Jing Gao, Guo Lingyu smiled. I have to say that this is a very powerful man.And indeed, as Liu Qing said, she has a bit of a stubborn personality!However, for those who achieve great things, who does not have the will to persevere?
Guo Lingyu shook the goblet gracefully. The red wine exudes a rich fragrance in the night, just like her beauty, and said: "Jean, I think you are too pessimistic. There is a high probability that Jing Gao will reject Ali. It's kindness, then you just turn around!"

Liu Qing let out a laugh, stroking her hair that fell to her forehead, leaning on the armrests of the wicker chair with both hands, and said, "Lili, you don't know enough about the domestic online car-hailing market. The merger of Didi and Uber is the general trend. It is absolutely impossible for two online car-hailing giants to exist at the same time in the United States. It is estimated that uber and lift will always exist in the North American market. There are reasons for anti-monopoly law, and there are also reasons for the concentration of global capital in the United States. In China There is no such situation.”

"So?" Guo Lingyu smiled slightly, and opened the perspective of "bystanders are clear", "According to Ali's vision, after the merger of Didi and Uber, Didi will occupy two board seats and Uber will occupy three. Isn't that good? The question now is if Jing Gao continues to refuse tonight, can Ali make Jing Gao yield and accept this agreement?"

Liu Qing took a sip of wine in silence.

With Liu Qing's IQ, how could she not have thought of this?However, first of all, Guo Lingyu did not understand the domestic situation.Ali's current investment style is the pursuit of control.Just like Didi, although the list of shareholders cannot be written on an A4 paper, the company is controlled by the management team!Didn't you see that Tencent, which had a relatively high shareholding ratio in the early stage, was squeezed out alive?
This is not to say that Tencent's equity is gone.It means that Tencent's influence in Didi is gone.The iconic event is: Didi abandoned the original Tencent map and switched to Ali's Gaode map.

Therefore, she and Cheng Wei temporarily live under Uber, and this mode is definitely only temporary.When going public in the United States, as long as capital is introduced, it will easily impact the inherent board structure and change hands.

how to do?Very simple!Before going public, the equity of shareholders will be diluted, usually to less than 20%, so should the number of seats on the board of directors be increased or adjusted?In addition to the executive directors, the board of directors also has independent directors.Independent directors have voting rights when making decisions on the board of directors!

Given the strictness of Ali's system, there was also the risk of control changing hands back then.Yahoo accounted for 40% of the shares in Alibaba back then, and had some ideas on corporate governance, which ran counter to Ma Yun.Fortunately, it was Ma Yun who suppressed Yahoo's influence on the board of directors in a timely manner, and continued to acquire equity, compromise, and exchange, which stabilized the situation.

Jing Gao didn't know if he knew Ali's style, so he was very firm in his refusal.

Guo Lingyu was right.So, can Ali finally use various means to make Jing Gao submit?she does not know.This should depend on how determined Ali is.

So for her, this matter is still beyond her control.

While the two were chatting, Liu Qing's cell phone rang, and it was Cheng Wei who called.Liu Qing apologized, got up and went to the hotel room to answer the phone, "Mr. Cheng, is the result out?"

Cheng Wei was still playing cards with Xie Shihuang in the hotel, and learned about what happened at the banquet tonight from various sources. Taking the opportunity to release the water, he couldn't help but call Liu Qing and his reliable business partner Annunciation.The voice was slightly agitated, "Yes. Liu Qing, Jing Gao humiliated Ao Dajin, Chairman of the Strategy Committee of Ali Entertainment, at the banquet tonight. The two of them talked about it in public. Do you know what Mr. Xie said? ?”

The moment Liu Qing heard the word "humiliating", she realized: Ali needs an excuse to do something.Or the moral high ground.In other words, Ali has made up his mind to use resources to compete for dominance in the field of "online car-hailing".

Although she guessed the result, Liu Qing was very cooperative and said, "Mr. Cheng, what did Mr. Xie say?"

Cheng Wei repeated Xie Shihuang's words, added his analysis, and discussed countermeasures with Liu Qing.

About an hour later, Liu Qing hung up the phone, walked out of the room with a smile, and said with a smile on her feet, "lili, the curtain of the times is about to begin."

Guo Lingyu saw that her friend was full of fighting spirit after answering the phone, she understood in her heart, raised her glass and said, "To you."

Besides, in the banquet hall on the third floor of Pangu Seven Star Hotel, a group of celebrities witnessed a wonderful "big show".The joke about the East X Express was passed on, and everyone laughed.It is estimated that Ao Dajin will be ridiculed in the future.

Mr. Jing is too narrow!
However, these people didn't realize at all that the monstrous huge waves had already taken shape in the transmission of messages and phone calls at night!
Jing Gao and Ai Dajin left one after another.Meanwhile, Song Yan, Zhang Hu, Wu Jie, and Wang Qiuyu were still socializing at the banquet.Song Yan originally wanted to develop in the entertainment industry.

Of course, this development does not mean that he is going to be a star.Instead, Song Yan has already made a movie as a director, and he wants to continue to start a company in this industry and make money from film and television dramas.

Wu Jie was much more relaxed than Song Yan.His family was originally engaged in film and television.And it's a top five company.In the eyes of some celebrities, he, Shaodong, is a favorite.Moreover, he is not as motivated as Song Yan, and he doesn't want to become a leader.In the future, the family's money will be enough for him to eat and play.Of course, there is no restraint on Song Yan.It is said that Wang Qiuyu treated him very well, which has exceeded the boundaries of elder sister's care for younger brother.

So, at the end of the banquet, before the end, Wu Jie took a recently popular actress to the upstairs room of the hotel to have fun for half an hour. After checking the time, he called his cousin and good brother Ren Chao on the bed. Telephone.

"Brother Chao, the news is out."

Ren Chao is currently drinking in Ren Zhi's villa on the outskirts of Shanghai.

Although Ren Zhi is young, he has a very calm mind. He is not like a young man in his twenties, but on the contrary, he looks like someone in his 40s or [-]s.He likes to be quiet, and there is only a nanny in the villa to take care of his daily life.

At the moment, the nanny aunt is frying a few side dishes: two plates of seasonal vegetables, fried ham with cucumber, egg with leek yolk, tofu with shallot.Get a few more cold dishes: white sugar tomatoes, fried peanuts, stewed beef, white-cut chicken.

Ren Zhi and Ren Chao cousins ​​sat in the restaurant drinking beer and chatting.Magic is not as good as the south, and autumn has already entered just after the National Day holiday.

On the suspended ceiling of the restaurant, there is a large lamp with complicated shapes and bright lights.The rectangular solid wood dining table is covered with a clean white tablecloth, and a table of dishes is displayed.

It was not the first time for Ren Chao to come here. Sweat dripped from his forehead, and he sighed: "Xiao Zhi, you are not thinking about bringing a girlfriend back to live in such a big villa? You are not the same as Aunt An's An Yi, Don't you understand the style? I heard that Cheng Zhao from Uncle Cheng's family likes her. In the end, that guy looks like a piece of wood."

Ren Zhibai was clean, very refined and smart, and laughed and scolded: "Get out! I don't want to give up."

He was born in a wealthy family with high vision.Ordinary beauties can't catch his eyes.And he knew a thing or two about his father's affairs.His father lived his whole life, and in the end Aunt Zhang accompanied him through his old age.Those of his former beauties had a mediocre relationship with him.Father and those aunts rarely meet once a year, and it's good if they don't quarrel with his illegitimate brothers and sisters for control and education.

Aunt Zhang is very kind to him, but stepmother is stepmother after all.He misses his mother in America very much!

Therefore, he is very resistant to being unfaithful to love and family.Also make sure to pay attention to only love one woman in this life, and give the children a complete family.There is no need to avoid it, at his age, he also has needs in that regard.But he would rather go to exercise, exercise his body, or do a manual flush, than settle down.

His dissatisfaction with Jing Gao in his heart also has this factor.Subconsciously, he doesn't like Jing Gao very much, he messes with flowers and grass everywhere, just for that moment of comfort.very low.

Ren Chao smiled and shook his head, "You, it's hopeless. Brother, I'm chic every day, so you should be envious."

Just as they were joking, Wu Jie called and told him about the banquet tonight.

"Okay. Okay. Wu Jie, I will hold a yacht party for you when I come back." Ren Chao and Wu Jie chatted with a smile, hung up the phone, and looked at Ren Zhi.His mobile phone was on the speakerphone all the time, "Xiaozhi, what do you say?"

Ren Zhi smiled, and said decisively: "Of course it's hands-on!"
