Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

In just a few years of development, no one in China thinks that WeChat is a pure instant messaging application, not only because of the existence of Moments, which drives Instagram, but also because Moments has formed a WeChat business group.Wechat businesses with a scale of tens of billions appeared unknowingly.

When Qu Li and Chen Danlin were dealing with Tianming Fund's properties, domestic and foreign discussions began to discuss the potential of the WeChat e-commerce model and the possible impact on Ali.It is said that Jumei intends to set up a C2C e-commerce website to serve the newly emerging WeChat sellers.

Although Shopify is very suitable for micro-businesses, the market environment at home and abroad is different. Shopify is a big killer for Amazon. Qu Li doesn't want to be exposed to the public eye at this time, so let them find their own way, whether it is a C2C platform or an e-commerce platform. Business website service tools are their own choice.

"WeChat business" became a hot spot of media attention for a while, and there were many optimistic voices, but soon there were negative voices, saying that the products sold were all three-no products, and fake and shoddy products were rampant.

"It seems that they are in a hurry." In another daily meeting of Jumei, everyone discussed

No need to think about it, the rise of "WeChat Business" must be aimed at Taobao, and if "WeChat Business" is not good, there is a high probability that Ari will "smear" it behind the scenes.

If "WeChat business" really has potential, then will Taobao not be able to do it?

"What is a WeChat business? It is mainly a circle of friends business for purchasing overseas, cosmetics, idle products, food, and luxury goods..." Jumei's marketing department gave their definition

Qu Li doesn't like "WeChat Business" and feels disturbed and offended. After deleting a lot of people in his previous life, he felt refreshed and stopped paying attention to WeiShang. Note the corners that thrive.None of this prevents Shiguang WeChat from pushing "WeChat business" to the fore.

As for why we do this, it’s not easy. Taobao’s survival is not a problem, but if Jumei wants to develop, we definitely don’t want Taobao to get too much money from the capital market, so that Ali becomes stronger and becomes unstoppable in the end. control.

It is a normal business practice to snipe at friends before they go public. If you target the founders and executives of friends, it would be a little low. Dadongzi wants to support his "Deng Wendi", which is immoral but not illegal after all. .

Jumei used to hype up the issue of Taobao’s “fake goods” and brag about the “WeChat business” model. This is kingly way. If Ari Taobao can’t support it, they deserve to be out of luck.Those who want domestic brands to live in harmony and compete fairly should not be too ridiculous.You are full, what should he do?If there is no strong organization, there will inevitably be monopoly behavior if there is monopoly.

The "WeChat business" model has a lot of shortcomings. First of all, there is no after-sales guarantee, and the proliferation of three-no products makes it easy to form a pyramid scheme.

"If we really want to be a micro-business, we must find ways to avoid these problems."

"But the circle of friends originally only has information about friends, and it has been screened."

"How many friends can you add on WeChat?"

"Is anyone crazy about adding friends?"

"The MLM model is easy to spread in the circle of friends..."

"Even if it is a micro-business in Moments, we still need to introduce credit ratings."

It just so happens that Jumei Financial Services is preparing for credit ratings. If WeChat transactions are introduced into the WeChat circle of friends, no, who wants to let their credit rating appear in the WeChat circle of friends, making themselves feel uncomfortable?

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, you have to think of a way?"

"Then build a second-hand trading platform with a high degree of freedom..." Qu Li always thought of a way, and Xianyu made his debut.

I won’t go into details about the rules of Xianyu, this platform is still very successful.The combination of Sesame Credit and Xianyu is not perfect, but it is really a good match.

If the series of actions of counterfeit products, micro-businesses, and C2C platforms have not affected Ahri's valuation, Qu Li will recognize it.

After the deceitful things are done, we still have to return to our own development, especially WeChat, the world's number one instant messaging app, has shown great vitality in China, and its development abroad has also stabilized.

The advantages of WhatsApp are in English-speaking countries, while WeChat is a team battle, and the adaptation of major languages ​​is better than WhatsApp. In addition, servers have been built in North America, the European Union, Fuso, and Singapore, and the group chat of voice and video calls is more stable, and the privacy has been updated. Features such as protection protocol and encrypted communication.

WhatsApp is more concise and can be used smoothly on low-configuration mobile phones, while WeChat has become complicated and is a super APP, so it is more suitable for high-configuration mobile phones.Unless some consumers are willing to use WeChat Express, well, some people do.

Official accounts, Moments, Shake, groups, and business cards have many functions that WhatsApp does not have. Because of this difference, WeChat has a large market in Europe and the United States and has become a monopoly in the Fuso market. It has no obvious advantages in the Southeast Asian market.

There are more than 5 million WhatsApp users, and about 3.5 million WeChat users, of which Fusangying has more than 5000 million users.Time WeChat and Instagram have achieved unprecedented good results for domestic companies and there is still room for imagination.

I don’t know if Ari’s valuation has been lowered, but Jumei’s market value has exceeded 1000 billion U.S. dollars. This increase is somewhat exaggerated.

"I wanted to make Ahri's market value not exceed 1000 billion U.S. dollars, but I didn't expect..."

"Then do you want to increase the pressure?"

"Forget it, you can't go too far." Qu Li looked at the soaring stock price, and knew that it was time to stop and save some face.

Although everyone in the e-commerce market will eventually reach the same goal, the Ari Taobao model is different from Jumei after all.Qu Li doesn't want to involve too much energy in the domestic market, going international is inevitable, and Ari's partners cannot be forced to be full of hatred towards them.

So the heads of various departments of Jumei left Yangcheng one after another, and Qu Li flew to Xingsha.Everyone is gone, so it can't be said that he is plotting against Ari, right?

However, Jumei took the initiative to cease fighting. Ari wanted to save the situation and would not take the initiative to provoke Jumei before the IPO, but the gossip in the investment industry did not stop.

Many financial crocodiles who have invested in Ahri are afraid. They never expected that Qu Li, who has always been kind to others and has a good relationship with Ma Yun's papa, would be so ruthless at a critical moment.

"But you can't blame him. Qu Tianming does things upright, and what affects investors' judgment of Ahri's future is a real confrontation..." A certain boss

"It just feels that it doesn't match Qu Li's personality. He is an entrepreneur who yearns for the stars and the sea, why..." A certain younger brother

"You also know that you are an entrepreneur. If you don't kill and kill, you can't become a hero, and you won't be where you are today. It is said that when Lehman invested in Jumei and Glory, he dug a hole..."

"Really?" The younger brother looked surprised, making the boss who knew the "truth" look proud. In the Internet age, there are still many inside stories that outsiders don't know

"You can find out, Lehman Brothers went bankrupt, and whose shares in Jumei and Glory they held in their hands ended up in whose hands..."
