The Rebirth of Wealth

April 8.

On this day, Ali held a fundraising reception in Lin'an.

Compared with Weibo financing, Dibao financing attracts more attention.

It is not that the value of Treasures must be higher than that of Weibo. The key is that this is the first time Ali has used Treasures for financing.

And after the delisting, Ali Group's first financing.

Previously, in 2005, Alibaba found Yahoo in order to develop treasure and compete with eBay, and raised 1 billion US dollars.

However, at that time, the entire Ali Group was the main body of financing, and that time the financing was taken by Yahoo to take 39% of the group's equity.

Although using this money, Ali incubated Dibao and Alipay, but it also caused Yahoo's rights to be too large. In addition, Ali was not too concerned about Yahoo's business in China. Now the two sides are in conflict.

Alibaba Group's rights, Ma Yun can't dominate now.

The reason why this time I chose to raise money separately is probably to prevent the big deal.

In addition to these factors, another point is that Dibao is the only C2C platform to choose financing in recent years.

Of course, the actual situation is that after digging up the treasure, Huaxia's C2C platform has almost no room for survival. There was a pat before, but the pat is backed by Teng Xun, and there is no need for financing.

As the online shopping market continues to expand, platforms such as Dibao that occupy 80% of the C2C market share are well-deserved overlords.

Some small and medium-sized C2C platforms, including B2C platforms, are staring at the financing of Dibao.

Like Li Dong's idea, they also want to see what kind of e-commerce platform exists in the eyes of investors?

How popular is it?

Are capital institutions optimistic about the prospects of the online shopping market?

Compared with vision and experience, I have to say that there are a lot of talents in capital institutions, and some investment managers are even more precise than the CEOs of some large groups.

Can be recognized by most capital institutions, indicating that the project's prospects are definitely there.

Therefore, on the 8th, the digging treasure financing reception attracted the attention of many people.

In addition to digging up treasures, there is one thing that also makes the parties look sideways.

Alibaba ’s infighting was previously known to many people.

At this financing reception, Ali is likely to announce some news to the outside world, and some small shareholders, including Yahoo, the major shareholder, may be excluded.

In fact, before Ali went to Hong Kong for listing in 2007, Ali had already retired a large part of small and medium VCs.

Today, few minority shareholders remain. After the completion of the previous privatization, according to the news released by Ali, Yahoo is the largest shareholder and currently holds 39% of Ali ’s total shares.

Ma Yun and his team hold 32% of the shares.

The third largest shareholder is Softbank, which holds 27%.

The three parties hold a total of 98% of the shares. In fact, they are really out of stock. The shares held by other capital institutions are almost invisible, accounting for only 2% of Ali ’s shares.

It stands to reason that Ma Yun, together with his team and Softbank, has a shareholding ratio of up to 59%, and there is no dispute over controlling rights.

But the capital institution is always the capital institution, and the world is full of profits.

In the past two years, although Ali's performance has grown, it is not as big as the previous one. The prospect is gratifying, and the future can be seen with the naked eye, with high returns.

Now, some of Ali's business, although good, can always make people feel that there is a crisis.

Especially Dibao and Alipay, faced with the impact of Wantou and Wanjia.com, make people feel that the crisis is grave.

In this case, although Softbank did not directly come forward to oppose some of Ma Yun's decisions, it never kept talking. Instead, it sat down to watch the battle between Ma Yun's team and Yahoo, and there were many wait-and-see attitudes.

Perhaps Softbank at this time was not so calm, and no longer trusted Ma Yun as much as before.

This is the reason for Ali Infighting's constant, these things Ma Yun should be able to see it right, so he now very much needs help and the opportunity to prove himself.

Yahoo and Softbank, at least he has the support of one side, in order to continue to lead Ali down.

Dibao chose to raise funds at this time. In Li Dong's view, it is not just to raise money and compete with Wanjia.com, it is more likely that it is to pull in a group of allies.

...

Lin'an.

By the West Lake.

A Maybach stopped slowly.

Li Dong opened the car window, looked at the West Lake from a distance, and whispered: "If you want to compare West Lake with Xizi, light makeup is always appropriate. Compared to Pingchuan, Lin'an is a bit more tasteful because of the presence of West Lake."

Bai Su, who was sitting beside him, smiled and said: "In fact, Pingchuan also has a lot of beautiful scenery ..."

"Xishi is in the eyes of my lover. I don't envy Ma Yun. Pingchuan is better than Pingchuan. Besides, how can we, the people of us, really have a view?"

Li Dong laughed at himself. The scenery is beautiful again. Will they have time to see it?

West Lake is under Ma Yun's eyelids, how many days can he see all year round?

Even if I chose to hold a financing reception on the banks of West Lake, it is still not hiding in the hotel. Who really came for sightseeing?

In this world, the bigger the career, the busier it is. In the end, maybe they do n’t know what to do for themselves, maybe it ’s for ideals, maybe they are really lost in it, and forget their original intention.

Of course, the greater possibility is still a habit.

When busyness becomes a habit, it is difficult for you to stop.

Once you stop, you will be at a loss, and you will feel embarrassed, as if all your life is missing.

Li Dong now is actually moving in this direction.

Although he kept saying, I want to rest, I want to retire early, I want to travel around the world ...

However, it really stopped him, and he was definitely not able to adapt at first.

Unless after a period of time, accustomed to a leisurely life, at that time, maybe you can let go.

With a sigh of emotion, Li Dong asked: "When is the financing reception?"

"Starting at 6 pm, at the banquet hall of the Shangri-La Hotel."

Bai Su replied, looked at the time and said, "It's only 2 o'clock now, Mr. Li, are we going to the hotel now?"

"If you don't go to the hotel, there are many people. I'm going now. How to surprise the old horse?

Drive around, find a place for a cup of coffee. "

After Li Dong finished speaking, Bai Su and Tan Yong were a little speechless. Do you really think you are here and others do not know?

If you have the ability, don't drive your own car and change to a low-key one. That's about the same.

Your Li Dong's car, who has a little status, who doesn't know?

Now driving around the West Lake, there are so many people, I'm afraid the news will have spread.

...

Bai Su and Tan Yong slander at the same time.

Ali headquarters.

Ma Yun looked annoyed and frowned, "What is this guy doing?"

Soon after Li Dong arrived in Lin'an, he received the news.

That guy, who is staring everywhere now, how could it be possible to act in secret.

What's more, he seemed to have no hidden thoughts, and was driving his Maybach brightly around the West Lake. At this time, it was probably not only him, but the city government should have received the news.

Ma Yun was annoyed and did not continue to complain, but only told him: "Here at the evening reception, he will not come the best, he will not be admitted!

Say hello to the security guard in advance, and the probability of him not coming is almost zero.

I'm sure that he came here for the sake of the treasure financing reception! "

Lu Zhaoxi on the side frowned slightly: "Not suitable?"

Li Dong is not an ordinary person, even if he does not come, even if he does not have an invitation letter, if he does not give him admission, it is a face-slap.

Ma Yun didn't have a good air: "I went to Pingchuan last time. Do you know how he entertained me and Ma Huateng?

Even the cafeteria didn't enter, blowing cold wind outside.

What's wrong with paying for teeth? "

Cai Chongxin, who was sitting opposite him, laughed and said: "Don't be angry, he doesn't necessarily come here to make trouble.

Anyway, to this point, really want to come to make trouble, then we have to worry about him?

He should have his purpose, just do n’t know if he wants to inquire about the news or ... "

Speaking of inquiries, Cai Chongxin shook his head.

At this point in Li Dong's case, if he had to go out to find out the news himself, then he was too miserable.

Not far away, Peng Rong said: "I guess it may be related to Internet finance. Didn't we make an appointment to launch a virtual currency fund together in May?

In my opinion, it may be for this. "

Peng Rong took over as Alipay ’s CEO not long ago. The issue of the virtual currency fund is also under preparation. She naturally thinks a bit more about it.

Seeing everyone's speculation, Ma Yun waved his hand: "No matter what he does, whatever he comes to do!

We do what we do, even if he does not come, even if he does not exist when he comes! "

With that said, Ma Yun seemed to have thought of something, and immediately said: "Now let me know, and see him coming to the headquarters, let me know immediately!

He is not allowed to enter our office area alone, and if you receive a call from him, let me know in advance.

I do n’t stop anyone from going up. If you think that the distance is more promising, I will sincerely congratulate you and send you away in a lively way.

But I do n’t want you to leave your job suddenly without my knowledge ... "

Ma Yunduo said a few words, Li Dong's guy is notorious, in order to dig people, do whatever he can.

Teng Xun suffered several losses there, even Baidu, because Weibo sent some technical talents to support the construction of the Weibo platform when financing Weibo. According to the plan, these people still have to go back after the construction is completed.

The result was good, and in the end, less than one-tenth of those who really returned to Baidu!

Li Yanhong is not angry about this, but he is actually mentally prepared and sent to do technical guidance. Generally, he is mostly stabbed and not too many people.

Finally, Li Dong was left behind. He became angry and let go.

Now that the Li Dong people are in Lin'an, Ma Yun must naturally guard against it.

Li Dong's involvement in the Internet industry is not too long. Strictly speaking, Li Dong did not formally enter the Internet business until 2006.

It's only three years since it was full.

And Ali has been doing it for ten years and has more talent reserves than in the distance. Since Li Dong is here, it is normal to want to dig up some senior technical talents.

Several people were talking, Ma Yun's secretary knocked on the door and entered, Hui reported: "Chairman, President Li's car has entered the Wahaha headquarters."

"Wow haha?"

Ma froze for a moment, then said in a while: "What the **** is this guy doing?"

He had always felt that Li Dong was here for him.

In the end, Li Dong didn't say hello, but went to the Wahaha headquarters, which made him a little confused.

Others looked at each other, and Cai Chongxin said helplessly: "Maybe it's to talk about cooperation. After all, wow haha ​​is the first drink.

We are scaring ourselves a little bit. No wonder many people said that Teng Xun was messed up for several days because he passed.

Now it seems that Li Dong doesn't necessarily have this thought, or we ourselves are a little messy. "

The shadow of the person's name tree, now Li Dong, is irresistible.

Sometimes he didn't actually think that way. As a result, many people became scared just by listening to his name.

Even Ali's side is actually a little afraid of him.

Ma Yun said that regardless of him, don't care about him, really don't care about Li Dong, he need to hold a meeting when Li Dong just came to Lin'an, to ask everyone's opinion?

Hearing Cai Chongxin's words, Ma Yun exhaled and said: "Forget it, don't discuss him anymore, just let him.

Everyone is ready for the evening financing reception.

This time it is not just a treasure hunt, but also a group affair.

The tenth anniversary of the group is imminent, and I do n’t want to feel uneasy during the tenth anniversary.

These days, not only am I tired, but in fact everyone is tired.

I hope that after this time, there will be a few days of birthday. "

Everyone nodded in response. The distance was busy and messy. In fact, Ali's life was not easy.

Especially after the privatization, a lot of money was spent, and Ali's old man was hollowed out.

Coupled with the rebellion of the merchants recently, the major shareholders and the management are in conflict, and there are distant eyes on the outside, and the implementation of logistics is not smooth ...

All of this made several senior officials overwhelmed and exhausted.

At this financing reception, everyone also hopes to complete it smoothly. Fortunately, before May, let everyone take a breath.

...

Wow haha ​​headquarters.

Li Dong didn't come here deliberately, but the car drove and passed by.

Since passing by, Li Dong is idle and idle, so he gets off the car and makes a lap.

Although he didn't make an appointment in advance, he learned that Li Dong was coming in person. Even if there were still a lot of things waiting to be dealt with, Zhong Qinghou dropped the matter and went downstairs to meet Li Dong in person.

The two are actually not very familiar. Li Dong has dealt with many elderly people in the industry, but Zhong Qinghou is relatively low-key, and he is not very involved in ordinary gatherings and associations.

This also led to the fact that the two had never met in private except for a few occasions on some formal occasions.

Zhong Qinghou was actually curious about Li Dong ’s arrival.

It stands to reason that if Li Dongzhen came to discuss business with them, he should be notified in advance, and there is no reason to be killed suddenly.

However, when Li Dong said that he came for the financing reception of the treasure, even the entrepreneur who did n’t like to joke, such as Zhong Qinghou, could n’t help laughing: “Mr. Li, many people said before that you bullied Ma Yun , Now it seems to be the case. "

Li Donggang wanted to say a few words, and the old man suddenly smiled and said, "But it's good to bully!"

Li Dong was dumbfounded. How much hatred, look at your expression of gloating and gloating, pay attention to the image?

Zhong Qinghou saw his expression and couldn't help laughing: "Don't look at me like this. Although you and I don't have much contact, but in the business world, you are one of the few entrepreneurs I admire.

As a business, you should be down to earth.

In the first two years, the rise of the Internet and e-commerce have just made a comeback.

At that time, Ma Yun liked to promote the benefits of the virtual economy everywhere, but he did not know that the virtual economy also has many drawbacks.

I do not exclude e-commerce, but I cannot accept his ideas.

Until the rise of the distant place, taking the entity as the foundation, moving from the entity to the Internet, and breaking the barrier between the two, this time, it gave us a lot of inspiration.

Ma Yun's pure e-commerce theory has now been rejected by him.

Otherwise, Ali will not join forces with these companies.

This point ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ You are a breath to these old guys, so I said that bullying is good! "

Li Dong immediately laughed when he heard the words. After the laugh, Li Dong exclaimed: "Lao Zhong, since you are so optimistic about me, and you are not short of money, how about changing our supply to annual settlement?

As soon as these words came out, the old man's smile came to an abrupt end!

Ma De, the industry has said that this guy is extremely shameless, he just did not take it for granted, and now it is an insight!

Wow haha ​​and the distant place naturally have cooperation, and the scale of cooperation is not small.

As a leading beverage company in China, Wahaha has annual sales of tens of billions.

Distant is also the largest business supermarket in China at present. The business of cooperation between the two parties is far away. In a year, the funds have reached billions of scale.

This guy, dare to speak!

Zhong Qinghou was a little bit tired. This guy didn't take it easy. No wonder he usually chatted with several old guys. Speaking of Li Dong, these people all showed helpless expressions.
