Chapter 432

"Fang zhe appears at eBay's U.S. headquarters and Huizhong wants to help eBay kill back to the Chinese market?"

"When jobs dies, Fang zhe may become the next jobs!"

"Many executives on Taobao, Jingdong and other e-commerce platforms have been poached by mysterious headhunters. It is said that the boss behind the scenes has a great relationship with Fang zhe!"

"The number of global registered users of wechat has exceeded 600 million, and the road of multinational giants of Huizhong is unstoppable!"

Looking at these news reports, Fang zhe was a little funny. Obviously, his contact with paypal and eBay made many domestic media speculate. They all thought that Huizhong was going to enter the e-commerce industry.

In addition, in order to help his girlfriend Feng Xue establish the vertical e-commerce platform aimei.com, Fang zhe specially sent people to cooperate with a number of top headhunting companies and did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to poach the executives of various e-commerce companies, which deepened the misunderstanding, so that even President Ma had to turn the corner and call to test himself!

"Mr. Ma, Mr. Ma, finally one day, I have become a person you are afraid of. Why do you invite me to double 11!"

To understand the reason, Fang zhe felt comfortable. In Fang Zhe's heart, among the leaders of the three bat companies, he admired and thought that the one with the most powerful and the highest pattern was President Ma of Ali.

In his previous life, Ma was always a guest of high-ranking government officials and even heads of many countries. He was also a frequent guest of various international conferences. He ran around the world for the internationalization of Alibaba.

In this life, in the limited meetings and exchanges between Fang Zhe and President Ma, President Ma always talks and laughs, and looks at himself with the mentality of appreciating his younger generation. Even if he is in the limelight again, he never loses.

Do not want to now, the market has just had the speculation and rumors that Huizhong may enter the e-commerce industry, Ma Zong can't sit still!

Yes, only e-commerce is Mr. Ma's most valued heart meat. Otherwise, in previous lives, Mr. Ma will not become a bitter enemy with Mr. Liu of Jingdong!

Huizhong has reached a preliminary cooperation intention in the negotiations with paypal and eBay. In the subsequent negotiations, Fang Zhe, the big boss, doesn't need to go out in person. However, Fang zhe has no intention to return home for the time being, because he still has two things to do in the United States. One is to meet Elon Musk, a famous celebrity in the science and technology circle and a real-life "Iron Man", The other is to attend jobs' memorial service.

......

On the other side of the Pacific Ocean, ARIMA, who finished talking to Fang Zhe, was a little angry.

Three years ago, when Fang Zhe and Huizhong were still unknown in the domestic Internet industry, Alibaba had become one of the top companies in the domestic Internet industry, and President Ma deserved to become one of the top leaders in the industry.

But now, three years later, Fang Zhe and Huizhong have leapt ahead of him and Alibaba, and even bat, once the three giants in the Internet industry, can't match Huizhong.

In the past, Mr. Ma could convince himself that Fang zhe was a younger generation and Huizhong did games and social networking. No matter how big and strong Huizhong did, it could not threaten Alibaba's position in the e-commerce industry.

But now, a series of vertical investment companies such as honey buds, jumei.com and so on are not counted by Huizu, and jumei.com is also paying a lot of attention to Alipay in the third party payment market.

Even so, Huizhong and Fang zhe are still not satisfied. Now they go to the United States to visit eBay headquarters and think with their toes. President Ma feels that Huizhong intends to further stir up the situation of the domestic e-commerce industry, which makes President Ma feel very headache!

To tell the truth, President Ma is not afraid of Huizhong's involvement in the e-commerce industry. Even if Huizhong did not personally intervene, Jingdong and other e-commerce companies he invested in and supported also did so. What President Ma is afraid of, or upset, is to waste resources and start a war!

What the outside world doesn't know is that Mr. Ma and Alibaba's internal executives have begun to plan to privatize and delist Alibaba, which only contains B2B business, from the Hong Kong stock market in the next two to three years, and then seek the collective packaging and listing of all businesses under the whole Alibaba group!

Since this plan was finalized in the core senior management of Alibaba a few months ago, the business planning and development of the whole group are working towards this general direction.

In order to have a beautiful valuation and share price for the listing of the whole Alibaba group, Alibaba's businesses have accelerated the commercialization process. If Huizhong, who is also good at money, brazenly intervenes in the e-commerce industry at this time, the listing plan of the whole Alibaba Group will be greatly affected.

Therefore, President Ma made a special call to Fang Zhe. First, he explored Fang Zhe's tone, and second, through the double 11 activities over a period of time, he showed Fang zhe Alibaba's muscles to let him and Huizhong understand that the e-commerce industry is not so easy to do, and Alibaba is not afraid of any challenger!

The headache is a headache. Many plans and plans formulated by Alibaba for the overall listing of the group in the future have been launched without turning back, so they can only continue to be implemented!

On October 10, Alibaba's Taobao Mall announced the official upgrade of the merchant management system. After the upgrade, the "technical service fee" paid by the merchants settled in Taobao Mall will be increased from the original 6000 yuan to the current 30000 yuan and 60000 yuan.

In addition, the settled merchants also need to pay a deposit ranging from 50000 yuan to 200000 yuan to establish a consumer protection fund. If the merchants sell fake goods, the actual goods are inconsistent with the description, delay delivery and other violations, Taobao Mall will directly deduct a certain amount of fees from the deposit paid by the merchants. If all of them are deducted, Then the merchants will be cleared out of Taobao Mall!

Taobao Mall, which was later renamed tmall, emerged because the original Taobao platform became larger and larger, and there were more and more Taobao stores. Large and small Taobao stores were mixed, which was neither convenient for management nor commercialization. Moreover, the entrance of Taobao was limited. The more Taobao stores, the less traffic allocated to each store.

The emergence of Taobao Mall is from Taobao C2C, user to user e-commerce model, evolved B2C, business to user. Therefore, the stores on Taobao Mall are basically Taobao stores with a certain scale and strength.

On the surface, the new regulations issued by Taobao Mall are to protect the rights and interests of Taobao consumers, improve the access threshold of Taobao Mall, and strengthen the punishment of merchants for violations, so as to improve the merchant service quality of the whole Taobao Mall.

However, after the new regulation came out, it aroused the strong dissatisfaction and protest of tens of thousands of small and medium-sized shopkeepers in Taobao and Taobao Mall!

The annual technical service fee of 30000 or even 60000 yuan and the deposit of at least 50000 yuan have led to a sharp rise in the opening and operating costs of Taobao Mall. Therefore, many small and medium-sized shopkeepers of Taobao Mall believe that this is Alibaba's crossing the river and breaking the bridge. First, Taobao screened a group of excellent shopkeepers to hatch Taobao Mall, Now, raising the entry threshold and operation and maintenance cost of Taobao Mall is tantamount to scraping wool from their shopkeepers, and even forcing some small shopkeepers to return to Taobao.

Taobao shopkeepers who have not settled in Taobao Mall are also very dissatisfied with this provision, because after the introduction of this provision, it means that they have a higher threshold and cost to settle in Taobao Mall.

Therefore, as soon as the new regulation of Taobao Mall was issued, QQ groups, wechat groups and Taobao forums gathered by various small and medium-sized Taobao shopkeepers immediately fried the pot!
