Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 252 Promotional Activities

"Pinebridge Investments asset management business, Blackstone Group stocks, aircraft leasing company ILFC and AIA." Qu Li defined the acquisition scope for Sun Jianhe. Although it was said to be very difficult, he himself did not have much hope for it.

Headquartered in New York, Pinebridge has 900 employees and manages $31 billion in assets in 873 countries around the world, primarily in the Asia-Pacific region.

ILFC is currently the second largest aircraft leasing service provider in the world, owning or managing more than 1000 aircraft, and accounting for 35% of the Chinese aircraft leasing market.

Huatou's biggest loss comes from Blackstone Group. AIG is Blackstone's major shareholder, with a shareholding ratio of about 15%. AIA is the largest life insurance company in the Asia-Pacific region.

It's quite difficult, Sun Jianhe secretly complained, and went back to investigate these targets. Blackstone Group is simply the ultimate ideal of most private equity, but the stock has fallen so much, should it be the end?There is no need to think about AIA. The price of US$300 billion is too high. If there is a listed company with a similar market value, there may still be a chance. It is a pity.

Qu Li learned from Sun Jianhe that Xiangjiang Investment Andrew had contacted COFCO, and the other party was indeed very interested. In the current situation when Mengniu encounters a state-owned enterprise, founder Niu Gen does not seem to have much choice.

"One more thing, Lianxiang Holding's mixed-ownership reform, you can try to quote..." Qu Li suddenly said this

"Lian Xiang Holdings?" Sun Jianhe didn't quite understand this. The conflict between Qu Li and Lian Xiang Liu Chuanzhi was very hidden, and it was normal for no one to know about it.

"Liu Chuanzhi is the godfather of the business world, and getting to know him is good for the future." Qu Li explained

"Lian Xiang works in IT, and their network..."

"Try it, you won't lose money anyway."

"Then I'll give it a try, but there's no guarantee of success. This kind of mixed reform..."

"It's okay. It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not. I just want to express my goodwill." Qu Li is an adult and does not make decisions based on personal preferences. Because of Zhou Shaoning's matter, it is impossible for Honor to be friends with Lenovo. Lei Jun probably won't say anything about Liu The old man is his idol, right?

"By the way, how many shares of Lianxiang Group do we hold?"

"It exceeds 5 million shares, and the stock price has nearly doubled..." Sun Jianhe

Qu Li will definitely not just be beaten without fighting back, he must scare them.

"Then let's tell him together and then apply to join the board of directors of Lianxiang Group."

"Are we really going to make friends with him?" No matter how stupid Sun Jianhe was, he still realized something was wrong.

"We are not friends now, and we don't know the future."

"I think he's going to make the right choice."

I believe many people are curious about Qu Li's withdrawal from the position of CEO of Jumei and Honor, because he can build cars more conveniently in the position of CEO of Honor. Therefore, as long as the responsibility is put on Lian Xiang Liu Chuanzhi, he must be If you do something excessive, the above will understand.Let business be business. Even if someone intervenes, can Qu Li's ideas not be considered?

Entrepreneurs, especially excellent entrepreneurs, are scarce resources around the world. Qu Li can create miracles in China, but can't he succeed without Zhongguo?If you look at Vision Investment, you will know that Qu Li is an owner who is not short of money, and it is possible to promote the progress of an industry.

Sun Jianhe left with a heavy heart, but he quickly realized that during this communication, Qu Li's attention was obviously abroad, and domestically these were just casual things, with no long-term plan for confrontation.

That's good, that's good, Qu Li is still very rational, he doesn't have to worry about his future.

Qu Li returned to work at Jumei and continued to understand various situations. Jumei seemed to be much more efficient under Lu Qi's adjustments. Dadongzi and Xu Lei may have just become familiar with the situation and have not done anything yet.

"Are you going to hold a promotional event?" I thought the two of them had no idea, but Xu Lei quickly slapped Qu Li in the face.

"Yes, only large-scale promotions for the entire network can..." Xu Lei explained to Qu Li enthusiastically

"Wait, have you reported to Lu Qi?"

"After reporting it, he disagreed." Xu Lei was a little embarrassed.

"What's the reason?" Qu Li continued to ask. As a leader, you should pretend not to understand and ask more questions.

"Our server resources are not enough to satisfy the massive number of users, which may cause payment congestion and lead to a series of unknown risks..."

"It seems to be true. Our cloud computing is not yet mature and it is difficult for it to work."

"But you have to go through this."

"What activities are you planning to hold and when will it start?" Qu Li asked again

"Mid-year sale on June 6th, or Singles' Day sale on November 18th." Xu Lei chose this for a reason. Jumei's complete fiscal year lasts from November of the previous year to October of the following year. August is summer vacation, and September and October are the peak seasons for offline consumption. June 11 is not a good day, but it is suitable for Jumei. 11/11 might be better, but that's the next fiscal year.

"Let's discuss it with Lu Qi again." Qu Li did not discuss the matter with Xu Lei and called Lu Qi.

After some communication, I found out that both of their ideas were not wrong.

“When can Juyun Technology start public testing?”

"It will be ready in June."

"Then let's use a promotion as a baptism for Juyun Technology?" Qu Li thought for a moment

"I'm afraid they won't be able to bear the blow." Lu Qi hesitated.

Qu Li frowned. This is really a problem. There are more than 3 million domestic Internet users and more than 8000 million online shopping users.However, Taobao said that their registered users are close to 1.5 million, and Jumei’s registered users are definitely less than 8000 million. If [-] million users flood in on the day of the big sale, it will be difficult for the website not to crash.

"Call Zhang Wensong and Wang Jian to see if they are confident."

"They..." Lu Qi wanted to say that the Chinese people want to save face and suffer the consequences, even if that doesn't work...

"How can you see a rainbow without going through wind and rain?" Qu Li was very indifferent. He had taken on a lot of pressure for Juyun Technology and could not let them hide in the greenhouse of Beijin all the time.

"Okay then." Lu Qi called Wang Jian, and as expected, the person on the phone decisively agreed to the matter.

"There is only more than a month left, and everyone in the company will cooperate with you..." Lu Qi turned to Xu Lei and said.

"I will try my best..." Xu Lei put down his harsh words

The risk of doing a promotional activity for the first time is still very high. Qu Li can easily think of payment failures and website crashes. Various phenomena often occur on Taobao Double Eleven. Until Alibaba Cloud Dacheng, this phenomenon rarely occurred. .

Meetings were held again and again to discuss and analyze problems. The June 6th promotion is a platform-wide promotion that is mainly self-operated, and major brands must be contacted. Taobao seems to have only 18 brands to cooperate with the first Double Eleven. I hope to gather together. The situation in the United States will be better.

"Free shipping on all platforms on Jumei 6!" Dadongzi is still courageous at critical moments

Jumei has high commission rates and requirements, so the unit price of its products is high due to the limited number of sellers. If promotions can drive sales, the cost of free shipping is not high.

Juhuasuan has a large number of small and medium-sized sellers, more than Taobao Mall, and most self-operated products and event merchants have free shipping.

Free shipping is not enough, low price is the way to go. Jupay online payment discounts, platform discounts...
