"I let you eat and take more, but now you are being targeted. Wow, there are more than a dozen top multinational companies, and the rest are also large domestic companies.
Every one of them is difficult to deal with. You must be confused now, but I have a good solution. "
Tongda Group’s headquarters is in Shanghai. Yu Weilong and Nie Tengyun heard the news and went to visit together. Old Yu was still the same as always. When they met, he joked, “That means you should share the money with us.
Let us bear this pressure for you. I, Old Yu, don't have any other abilities, but I have a good attitude and money. Don't worry about how outsiders threaten, bribe, or use their power to pressure you.
As long as there are no problems in the company's internal operations and it can develop smoothly, external pressure is ultimately external pressure, which is just a small matter. I, Old Yu, believe I can handle it.
How about transferring a few hundred billion dollars to me first, so that I can experience the joy of being the richest Chinese man in public?"
"Go to hell, when Yuantong made money, I never saw you give me more dividends."
Li Zehua, who knew that the interests of both parties were deeply intertwined, did not hide anything and said directly: "When the company was first established, we borrowed a little from others to ward off those with ulterior motives.
You also know that a small person like me who started from scratch cannot compare with those rich kids who are born with a silver spoon in their mouth and wear fine clothes. It is too difficult for me to do something.
We can never resist the fact that some people have prying eyes and others have improper thoughts. Just like the situation now, it is only natural to get paid according to the effort you put in, but there are always people who are not satisfied!
That’s right. After all, we are not on the same path. We are temporarily tied together because of interests, but we will eventually go our separate ways due to uneven distribution of interests. It doesn’t matter.
If it rains, let it rain; if my mother wants to marry, let it be.”
Nie Tengyun heard the deeper meaning and saw that he looked determined and had no intention of compromising, so he asked worriedly, "Are you planning to attack the old shareholders?"
“That’s indeed what I meant, but don’t worry, it’s aimed at those who complain every day that they don’t get enough, who want to eat more but can’t do anything.
Tongda and Qingyun have a broad cooperation foundation. Together, we will deepen our presence in the logistics industry. To put it bluntly, we will not be able to finish eating the big pie of logistics in the next 10 to 20 years.”
After Li Zehua gave them a reassurance, his eyes flashed with ferocity, "But for some people, it's hard to say. The promotion of WeChat this time has led to a full-scale counterattack from Tengda, which is all within the company's expectations.
Although it seems fierce on the surface, it actually has little impact on the company. The group's initial industrial chain and ecosystem are sufficient to support the continued healthy development of the existing market share.
But I am disheartened by the collective inaction of venture capitalists!
Especially Gaoling and Mingri. One invested in Tengda, which conflicted with the company's core business, and the other was defeated by the company in the past cotton and gold futures.
This caused some investors to suffer heavy losses, and because of the acquisition of Minsheng Group, conflicts began to be brought to the surface and gradually became clear.
I have kept my original promise, that we should become rich together as friends.
For example, the fund shares that the two of them invested in Qingyun have increased from 500 million US dollars at the beginning to more than 7000 million US dollars today, more than 14 times.
In addition, in the fields of express delivery, same-city delivery, and logistics, YTO Express's monthly revenue and net profit are growing rapidly. Looking to the future, it will be no problem for us to achieve tens of billions or hundreds of billions."
At this point, he sighed and said, "But some people can't tolerate me now."
Yu Weilong was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "We discussed it clearly when we came here. Tongda Group and Qingyun Group are strategic allies who will benefit from cooperation and lose from separation.
Chen Dejun of Shentong and Lai Hairong of Zhongtong also meant the same thing. We don't have such a big appetite. As long as Qingyun continues to delve deeper into the logistics and express delivery industry and builds a smart logistics network, it will take us with it.
You eat the meat and give us some soup, then we will always stand firmly behind you."
Nie Tengyun thought more long-term, "In fact, we have thought about it for a long time. Gaoling and Tomorrow Capital cannot keep up with our development pace. We should appropriately reduce their shareholding.
It could be redemption or private placement dilution, but I haven’t mentioned it because I’m concerned about your relationship with them.”
The Tonglu Gang is also quite powerful. They are not good at financial speculation and believe that the industries they build with their own hard work and down-to-earth skills will last longer, so they are not interested in foreign capital.
When Gaoling, Tomorrow, and Mo invested in Chimai, Fengniao, and Pinxixi, the Tongda Group was actually forced to accept their investments because it had to follow in the footsteps of Fengniao in the city delivery business.
In terms of technology, they need help from Qingyun Code Development Group. When Yunyunbang starts to make efforts in the later stage, Tongda Group will not dare to say no to Qingyun easily.
They were busy pacifying franchisees in various places and needed financial and network support from the Qingyun Group. Li Zehua did not take the opportunity to raise the price in the middle and would always bring them along in any way he could find to make money.
Although people don't say it, they remember it in their hearts. After all, they are not related or intimate, but there is a basis for cooperation. Whether or not to take them along to make money together involves other interests is purely a personal wish.
Li Zehua took them into the car, which showed that he was a righteous man, so everyone was willing to listen to him.
"Just your words are enough. I plan to take advantage of the gathering at the end of the month to show my cards directly. Either Zhang Lei's Gao Ling or I will sell Tengda shares to fully support Qingyun in developing WeChat.
Or I can use the liquidation terms of my initial investment and buy out his shares at the latest valuation.
As for Tomorrow Capital, it is unlikely to be completely cleared out, but the capital involved, which is hostile to the Zhongxin and Jiangsu and Zhejiang groups, must be cleared out unconditionally.
Don't worry. With the development of Qingyun Group today, it is no longer an object that can be slaughtered and manipulated at will, even if they have extraordinary origins, once had a prominent family background, and have old employees spread all over the country.
It doesn’t work here.”
Li Zehua never believed in anything like a monolithic entity. Just like the factions in the company, everyone usually sticks together for mutual benefit. I want your fame and you want my support.
But now, which of the core investment provinces of Qingyun Industry does not involve the future trillion-dollar industrial clusters?
Be it the Magic City, Pengcheng, Feicheng, Star City, Western Regions, Sichuan Province, no matter who is there, they will not easily overturn the existing situation, because the benefits given by Qingyun are equally huge.
In an era where economic development is the main focus, whoever can create GDP, jobs, and tax revenue will receive strong support from the local government. It is really difficult to create chaos out of personal gain.
Who will follow?
Do you really think you have no competitors?
People are hoping that you will destroy your own Great Wall, and then smilingly take over Qingyun Group's investments under your own name, and push their own people to take the positions. There are only so many positions, and if you don't want one, there will be plenty of people to take them.
The attitude of Shanghai is enough to explain everything. It involves a huge group spanning finance, high technology and the Internet. How many people have benefited from it?
Not to mention that the government does not agree, the forces in Pudong, Huangpu and Minhang, where the headquarters of dozens of subsidiaries are located, will stand up and cheer for Qingyun like crazy.
The most crucial thing is, even if several major forces can eventually merge and concentrate on dealing with Qingyun, the problem is how to obtain the overseas benefits?
Why do the higher authorities give the green light to the technological development of WeChat?
Even when Weifuzhi broke the established agreement, violated the promise of not opening offline outlets to absorb deposits, and prepared to acquire Minsheng Group, did you turn a blind eye?
To put it bluntly, Qingyun is a leader that has truly gone abroad, harvested global resources and fed back to the domestic market, and is a core enterprise that can provide support for the globalization of the RMB.
Qingyun AutoNavi Maps alone has added tens of billions of yuan in annual revenue to the Beidou Navigation commercialization plan. The initial commercial network was originally estimated to take three to four years to build.
With the involvement of Amap and Yunyunbang, the market for in-car navigation systems for home cars and freight trucks has added tens of millions of users out of thin air. Even though the software is free, the hardware portion can generate tens of billions of revenue.
In the internal reference document provided by the Beidou Commercial Office, it was clearly mentioned that with the strong support of Qingyun, the global coverage and grid connection plan, which was originally scheduled to be completed around 2020, could be completed.
It can be completed ahead of schedule, around 2016/2017, without requiring additional funding from the state or additional support from supporting enterprises, and even saving policy loans.
why?
All this is because the commercial network has been taken over in advance, and Qingyun has made an indelible contribution. The report submitted by the three provinces of Xiyu, Shaanxi and Gansu to the higher authorities also clearly stated that with the continuous investment of Qingyun in the northwest region, it will effectively solve the employment of millions of people.
It plays an irreplaceable and important role in stabilizing the local area. It plants millions of tons of cotton, engages in OEM business for hundreds of thousands of people, involves the transportation of more than 100,000 heavy trucks, and benefits millions of farmers.
Anyone who moves against Qingyun at this critical juncture will be going against everyone in the entire province.
Not to mention Jiangsu, Shanghai, Guangdong and Hunan, as the layout of industrial chains with a scale of hundreds of billions of yuan began to take effect, the future economic development guidance strategies of the entire provinces all included Qingyun in their plans.
What's the matter? What do you want to do? Do you want to get rid of Qingyun?
Are you kidding? Who will fill the shortfall?
Sichuan and Guizhou provinces are looking forward to it eagerly, and even Yunnan and Guangxi have joined in one after another, eyeing Qingyun’s top assistance plan in the next two years. Who wouldn’t love the 10 billion poverty alleviation funds provided by the policy?
Li Zehua is happy to spend his money, and his move of buying insurance for himself is gradually playing its role. Perhaps many people are planning how to bite off a piece of meat from him at this moment.
But whoever dares to be the first to stand out will face Qingyun’s fatal blow!
Only when you have the confidence can you do it. Li Zehua said his plan without hesitation, "...Don't say that I am ruthless. I don't need to discard anyone who is useful to me. I can replace him with anyone.
I always say the same thing, I, Li, have no regrets, all the brothers who followed me have not been left out, since we are not happy working together, let’s separate as soon as possible.”
He also talked about the idea of winning over the owner of Meizhuang, "They have a deep relationship with Caitai Capital. In cotton futures, if he comes forward, some departments of Goldman Sachs can resist the pressure from other departments.
He stood up without hesitation and was the first to defect, thus delivering the fatal blow. Although he was motivated by personal gain, how could an ordinary person have such influence?
Therefore, attracting him to join WeChat Technology is to prepare for the globalization of WeChat. In addition, although Softbank and SAIF, the companies behind Ali, are in a panic, Sun Zhengyi actually used various channels.
I'm in contact with Qingyun, and I'm planning to introduce many of Qingyun's projects to Jiaobenji, but he asked for too high a price, so we haven't reached an agreement yet."
Some situations still need to be shared with allies in a timely manner. Even if the Tongda Group does not hold shares in WeChat Technology, it will be difficult to obtain shares in WeChat Technology through primary market financing in the future.
However, during the development process, they will still provide assistance to the business of WeChat Technology and other companies. The logic is the same. Only when Qingyun develops better overall can their future be guaranteed.
What's more, people are still waiting for the internal original shares of WeChat Technology before its listing. For example, Nie Tengyun is still a director of the board of directors of Hummingbird Group and a committee member of the strategic decision-making of Qingyun Holdings.
It is possible that before the listing, in WeChat Technology, whose original stock was destined to exceed 10 billion shares, Weifuyi accounted for several million or tens of millions of shares, which was roughly a few ten-thousandths of the total.
Yu Weilong is not much worse. In addition to his position as chairman of YTO Group, he is also considering joining Qingyun Smart Logistics Group as a director in the near future.
Chen Dejun and Lai Hairong will also join Yunyunbang or other affiliated companies to complete Qingyuntongda's further strategic cooperation plans.
"That's about it. The interests of the five of us are completely tied together. With the addition of JD.com CEO Liu Qiangdong, oh, I forgot, CEO Wang Wei will also be here tomorrow. We'll discuss the plan in detail then."
As soon as Li Zehua finished speaking, Yu Weilong frowned and asked, "Wang Wei is coming too? Then should we still buy the plane?"
"Of course I have to buy it. I have already made arrangements with Temasek, China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines. Sichuan and Hunan provinces are interested in introducing external funds to establish a joint venture in Sichuan Airlines.
Hunan Province also proposed whether they could work together to create Central and Southern Airlines. This name is good and impressive, especially since some airlines in Southeast Asia are willing to join. Central and Southern, Central and Southern, will no longer be limited. "
Li Zehua smiled and said, "We must do air cargo transportation. In the western region, especially in the Western Regions, it is definitely a loss to transport watermelons by plane. What about express shipments with high economic value, such as high-quality fruits and vegetables, or meat?
Don’t underestimate the demand. As long as we persevere, we will be able to do it.”
Seeing that he was playing dumb, Nie Tengyun simply said, "Don't change the subject. You dragged SF Express into this. Aren't you planning to sell out our interests in exchange for Wang Wei of SF Express to compromise?"
"So are you willing to accept the combination of Ali and SF Express, or are you willing to accept SF Express's foundation in private air cargo and only need to invest a little money and reap the benefits?"
Li Zehua was well prepared and directly produced a set of data and his vision for the future, "…the data is public, and you can verify it through other channels.
The key is not whether to sell out your interests and bribe SF Express.
The point is, if this part of the profit is kept in their own hands, how much effect can it have, can it offset the advantages of the Ali and SF Express combination, spend one dollar to get back ten dollars, and make hundreds or thousands of dollars together.
Or should you stick to one piece and invest another hundred yuan so that you can split the thousand-yuan market in half with others in the future?
You decide how to think about it, so that you don’t accuse me of being the only one who has the final say. "
"Damn, he got a good deal. We had already set up the shelves, and Wang Wei came over to eat the ready-made food."
Yu Weilong cursed but didn't refuse. "Alas, the leading advantage is really too important. If your brother was okay, he could lead us to continue to develop..."
Nie Tengyun couldn't help but frown. "Don't mention the past. It was our own fault. We were fighting overtly and covertly before and wasted time. Otherwise, SF Express wouldn't have been able to dominate the market.
Even if we are reluctant to admit it, we have to face the reality that in the field of high-end express delivery, even the postal giant is powerless against SF Express. "
Li Zehua smiled and said, "You two are both smart people. SF Express's first-mover advantage is still unattainable today. Since we can sit down and discuss cooperation, why do we have to fight to the death?
With SF Express entering the market, to put it bluntly, from today on, the private express delivery sector will be completely monopolized by us, and there will be no place for new players.
Next, as long as we develop according to the formulated smart logistics plan and free up our hands at the same time, we can crush EMI.
No matter how powerful Jack Ma is or how much he invests, he cannot create people out of thin air. Without a mature distribution network, what right does he have to get involved in the express delivery industry?
Even if a large logistics company wants to cross-border development, with the resources we have, we can compete head-on and shut down the competitor in less than three months.”
The key point in winning over SF Express lies here. It can completely close the entry door to the express delivery business and no new players will be allowed to intervene in the future.
For Qingyun, the express delivery industry is as stable as Mount Tai, and it has also stabilized the same-city delivery and cross-regional Yunyunbang sectors, so it will be able to maintain its monopoly from now on.
With the catering management plan, supermarket plan, and community fruit and vegetable store system gradually taking shape, in three to five years, there will be no second company in the world that can compete with Qingyun.
With such a stable base of support, any other business will be successful.
We agreed to see you both off after the party in the evening.
Yu Li walked into the office and asked worriedly, "You have offended so many big companies, and you are still going to cut internally at this critical juncture. What if it triggers a chain reaction and is opposed by the majority of people?
What to do then?
The money earned from a cotton futures contract has destroyed countless families. Now there are countless people who hate you to the core. There are even rumors that someone has offered a reward for you if the news spreads.
I want your life!
I have already told Zhang Tao to find the person and get rid of him."
Once upon a time, Yu Li was just a small receptionist, but after following Li Zehua for a year or two, she has grown up rapidly and has not been exposed to much of the dark side.
But if anyone tries to shake her last bit of inner determination, she will fight back without hesitation, even if it means someone’s life is lost.
Li Zehua stretched out his hand to call her over and held her in his arms, "Don't get involved in these matters, just let Zhang Tao do it.
As for the internal cleansing, I have a complete plan. Isn't this just constant contact with other people? It is generally clear who is in favor and who is against. A small group of people cannot stir up any waves.
Also, you are not allowed to do these things again in the future, but I will not use my woman as a knife, and I am not interested in pushing you out to be a scapegoat at some point. "(End of this chapter)
