Who Can Fall In Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 726 War and Smoke

 In late autumn, when the yellow leaves are flying, the development of Kuaidi is in full swing in Jinmen and surrounding cities, while Didi quickly captures about half of the market share in Jiangcheng and Yuzhou.

Various advertising leaflets are distributed everywhere, and the confrontation over subsidies in different regions is full of tension.

In this small-scale market battle, both sides seem to have taken advantage, but neither side seems to have taken advantage.

However, Chen Chuanxing’s reputation in the circle has obviously increased. During October, the head of SoftBank China visited Kuaidi Technology’s Hangzhou headquarters several times, and Hillhouse Capital also followed suit.

 It can be seen that foreign capital is already ready to take action in China's taxi market, and they are all optimistic about Kuaidi.

On the other hand, Bibi has fallen into a situation where its presence is not strong in the entire taxi-hailing alliance.

 After all, in the eyes of capital, CEOs in the entrepreneurial stage do not need to be too calm, but they must be courageous.

In other words, daring to think and act is more popular than thinking before and after, because stability is something that comes after the unification of the market. In the current stage of business war, if you are not ruthless, you will not be able to win the crown.

 Hence, capital is more optimistic about Kuaidi, or to be precise, Chen Chuanxing is more optimistic, which makes Cheng Wei's "steadiness" become a derogatory term.

Jiang Qin muttered, his expression suddenly froze for a moment, and then he turned to look at Liu Qing who was standing in front of him.

However, Jiang Qin's attention was not on him. Instead, he was looking around the venue, his eyes wandering.

Liu Qing felt like she hated iron but couldn't make steel. She really didn't understand why Cheng Wei was so cautious every time he mentioned Jiang Qin.

“Mr. Jiang is looking for someone? Are you a friend you have an appointment with?”

 “No matter what he says or does, no matter where he is, there is nothing outstanding about him.”

Probably because she is used to the way things are done in the capital society, in her opinion, all the vigorous and resolute actions Jiang Qin has shown in the past are nothing to be afraid of when it comes to real money.

Out of misunderstanding of Cheng Wei's caution, Liu Qing took the initiative to say hello to Jiang Qin.

 At an investor conference in October, when Liu Qing met Jiang Qin himself and had a few conversations, this feeling became even more intense.

“Hello, Mr. Jiang, I am Liu Qing, the joint CEO of Kuaidi and Bibi.”

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, thinking to herself, I thought he wanted to be humble, but he would not be punished at once.

"it's nothing."

"No, let me see who is more suitable to participate in the Hundred Days Banquet..."

 Investor conferences are held once or twice a year. Liu Qing attended them as usual, but she didn't expect to see Jiang Qin there.

Jiang Qin said modestly: "It's just that I have too much free time in college and I have a part-time job..."

Liu Qing smiled slightly: "I haven't been back to China for a long time, but I have heard many stories about Mr. Jiang, and I admire him very much."

Jiang Qin glanced at her: "Oh, I know, your father and I know each other."

 She wanted to rely on her own contacts to re-evaluate this man who was almost touted as a fairy by the domestic market.

“And he always talks about being short-sighted, whether it’s his daughter or his wife. I’m not belittling him. I just want to tell you not to overly mythologize your opponents. The market is changing rapidly and you only have one chance.”

 At noon, it started to rain lightly in the sky. Liu Qing left the investor conference and came to Bibi’s headquarters to meet Cheng Wei.

 “I’ve met Jiang Qin, he’s very ordinary.”

“I have met many outstanding CEOs in the United States. Without exception, they all have elite temperament, but I can’t feel it from Jiang Qin.”

Cheng Wei was silent for a long time after listening to Liu Qing's words, and began to feel restless inside.

It will soon take over the Jinmen market. It is estimated that it will be able to take advantage of the opportunity to enter the Kyoto market before the Spring Festival. If Bibi does not take action, it will really have no chance.

Seeing his hesitation, Liu Qing decided to give him some space, but when she left, she remembered something, so she said, "Mr. Cheng, lend me ten thousand yuan."

"Um?"

 “I’m interested in a pair of high heels, but I have no money in my card.”

Cheng Wei took out his mobile phone and transferred 10,000 yuan to her, but his eyes couldn't help but be a little blank, wondering who Liu Qing was? Even ten thousand yuan is gone?

Liu Qing said goodbye to him after receiving the money without any explanation. She didn’t expect to attend the investor conference and she had to attend the investor conference, and she didn’t expect that someone would bring a POS machine with him...

 It was raining heavily outside the window, and there was a faint sound of thunder penetrating the clouds.

Cheng Wei watched Liu Qing leave, then stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and paced back and forth, thinking about Liu Qing's words.

  There is no firm alliance in the real market. Everyone comes together because of the trend of interests, and the same is true for Kuaidi and Bibi.

If Alibaba had not been trying to contain the group-building, Ma Yun would not have agreed to the alliance between the two companies. If Uber had not been destroyed by Didi, Bibi would not have become cheaper.

When facing a common enemy, the stronger the enemy is, the closer this temporary alliance will be, but as the enemy becomes weaker, the alliance will lose its meaning. He knew it was time to take action.

So not long after the investor conference ended, Bibi officially entered the Jinling market and aimed at Shanghai.

Beep can’t wait any longer. Apart from taking the opportunity to sink into the market, Didi obviously has no better way to deal with it. In the final battle of kings, only Kuaide and Beep will participate.

People in the circle are also talking about Bibi's big move.

But what they were talking about was not the beep or the fast one, but the beep.

At the beginning, the taxi-hailing market was controlled by Uber. It was Didi that turned the tide and dragged the market into its own rhythm and defeated Uber.

In the blink of an eye, half a year later, Kuaidi and Beep teamed up to eat the fruit that should have belonged to Didi. This is really disappointing.

But if you think about it carefully, if there was a thousand-group war and all the websites had united to solve the group fight first and then decide the outcome, maybe the group fight would be gone now.

Jiang Qin has shown his sharpness and made countless enemies along the way. It is not surprising that he will encounter this situation.

 The market is everyone's market. If there is a company that is invincible and invincible, then it will inevitably become the target of everyone's siege. This is reasonable, right? Otherwise, others will eat whatever they want.

However, what happened immediately afterwards caused an uproar in the entire Internet business community.

 The trial operation of Alipay's Yu'E Bao has officially ended and it has begun to fully open to the outside world. As a financial product, the interest rate of Yu'E Bao is much higher than that of bank deposits, and the number of users has increased significantly in a short period of time.

At this time, I don’t know who was the first to shout out, “Deposit big money in Alipay, small money in Cloud QuickPass” is getting louder and louder in the market.

 And then, another piece of news came out, which made the whole situation become anxious.

 Alibaba plans to fully acquire Hungry Bu and is currently negotiating.

 In an external interview, Alibaba said that ecological construction in the field of life services will be the key development direction in the next stage.

At this moment, almost everyone realized that Ali was really going to strike first.

Hungry Bu, Koubei, Fliggy, Taopiaopiao, since the payment war, Alipay is no longer a simple payment tool, it is an aggregated version of the group.

Now, with the full launch of Yu’ebao, Alibaba seems to be targeting the core business of group-building.

As for Dianping, a subsidiary of Tencent, it seems that it is also eyeing the market in the hands of Tuan Tuan. WeChat Pay has also fully entered the college student market and settled in the cafeterias of college students across the country.

 “Holy shit, are you so cruel?”

“In the past few years, the group has become too strong...”

"Who says it's not the case? Since 2009, Alibaba and Tencent have spent a lot of money in the O2O field, but in the end, the mature market has been taken away by group shopping. It feels like you spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on it. I married a daughter-in-law as a bride price, but someone else slept with me on the wedding day!”

“If you can force a big company to do this, you can be considered a member of the group and leave a name in history.”

"Jiang Qin is only twenty-five years old. Everyone, Jiang Qin is only twenty-five years old. I am still running insurance at the age of twenty-five!"

"But Alibaba and Tengxun suddenly started to maintain a tacit understanding. Even if the gods come, they can't stop them, right?"

 “Damn, this is a hellish game, even if you lose, you can brag about it!”

 In fact, neither Alibaba nor Tencent, nor their affiliated companies, have ever said that they would target group bookings.

What fast entered Jinmen, beep into Jinling, Yu'ebao's full opening up, and Ali planned to acquire the acquisition of hungry and not planned, almost the entire autumn between these events.

 In the eyes of ordinary people, big factories are just taking action again, but they don’t think about the connection.

Even, most people are not clear about the relationship between software such as Bibi, Elebu, Fliggy, Taopiaopiao, and Dianping, and Alibaba and Tencent.

 So this does not belong to any form of cooperation. It is just a coincidence that everyone intends to enter the core area of ​​group building.

Perhaps it will not be until many years later, when this battle is completely over, and when some self-media bloggers who like to analyze business development begin to delve into the details, that they will understand that it turned out to be a sniper attack on group fights.

Only by using simple language and writing can we try our best to show everyone the danger at that time.

At this moment, the one who feels the wind and waves the most is actually Pintuan, who is in the center of the eye of the storm.

Throughout the autumn, almost all the actions of major factories have been related to the group-building process. Such actions have inevitably caused worries to the group-building employees.

For example, if Hungry doesn’t accept Alibaba’s acquisition, Tuan Tuan’s food delivery business group is paying close attention to this matter.

An example is Taopiaopiao’s movie ticket subsidies, which also made the performance ticket purchasing business department under the group-to-store business group start to be alert.

 There is no flames of war and no smoke of gunpowder, but for the group, the atmosphere of war has slowly begun to dissipate.
