Chapter 152: Exploring eBay and the EU
After a long fifteen minutes, everyone was unable to wait for the vehicle.
So one of the female partners couldn't help but ask Boss Ma next to him, "Mr. Ma, when will he arrive from Russia? We have been waiting here, almost 20 minutes. Could it be that something happened on the road, right?"
After hearing this, Boss Ma couldn't help but turn around and glance at the woman. However, just as he was trying to say something, he suddenly saw several black Mercedes-Benz with consulate license plates coming from the intersection ahead! Look at their slow driving, it seems that they are driving the lane for the vehicles behind!
Everyone looked at them and saw behind these consulate vehicles, there was a Mercedes-Benz Amg luxury car with a small five-star red flag, which looked very handsome.
"Damn, the convoy in front of the road is not the investor from Russia, right? The consulate car is leading the way! How much face does this mean? It is impossible for an ordinary businessman?" A male partner said softly in surprise.
"You don't know this. None of the people who can make a fortune in Russia started from scratch. The family behind them has a deep relationship with the Russian government!" Another expert male partner said to everyone in correction.
"Yes, yes, it must be very good. Look at that Mercedes-Benz, it seems that there is no one in China yet! I guess it was airlifted and I can't get used to other cheap cars."
...
Boss Ma in the crowd listened to the discussions of the partners around him, and he had already guessed the scene in front of him.
However, compared to the last time I met in Perineky Summer Palace, the vehicle escorted Ma Wei this time was a little larger. Four consulate vehicles came at one time. It really made Boss Ma sigh... I thought to myself when I would have such ability.
In fact, what he didn't know was that with Mawei's current background and identity, such travel was already very low-key, very low-key... There were neither military vehicles to lead the way nor police cars to block the road. Otherwise, they would definitely scare these eighteen Alibaba partners...
When Ma Wei walked out of the Mercedes-Benz armored vehicle while the bodyguard opened the door, Boss Ma, in a suit, stepped forward to greet him, "Hello, Mr. Ma Wei, welcome to our Alibaba headquarters!"
"Hello, Mr. Ma, there is actually no need to receive such a grand reception." Ma Wei said as he shook hands with Boss Ma. He came here this time and left after investing money. After experiencing strong storms, Ma Wei didn't take provocations like the American eBay seriously.
However, in his eyes, it is a small matter, but in the eyes of Alibaba's Boss Ma and 18 partners, it is of great importance and must be taken seriously.
"No, no, Mr. Ma Wei, it's a must, so grand. Please sit down! I'll take you to visit our Alibaba headquarters. This seems to be your first time, right?" Boss Ma led Ma Wei enthusiastically to visit their company.
He still clearly remembers that when he was eating the Manchu and Han banquet in Perinekyo Summer Palace, Ma Weina spent a lot of money and looked awesome. The 50 million US dollars were smashed, almost knocking him out...
"Well, yes, it's the first time I'm here." Ma Wei said, and under the guidance of Boss Ma and Partners Shiba, he walked into Alibaba's headquarters.
All Alibaba employees, both men, women, young and old, all respectfully greeted Ma Wei. This was obviously what Alibaba executives had in advance instructed.
After taking Mawei to visit the company for a while, everyone came to the multimedia conference room on the fifth floor. As an investor, Mawei was invited to sit in the seat, while the remaining 18 partners sat around him.
"Mr. Ma Wei, what you said on the phone two days ago is recommended that our Alibaba company develop the domestic C2C market. We carefully estimated that the cost... seems to be quite huge. It includes website construction, resource drainage, preliminary publicity, etc...." Not long after taking the seat, Boss Ma took the lead in saying to Ma Wei.
"How much is it? Let's open a price." Today's Mawei is different from when he was in Perijing. There is a huge deposit of nearly 500 million US dollars in his bank card. Not to mention spending one Alibaba with money, it's okay to spend ten...
"If you have a full plan and save some in all aspects, it will be about 20 million US dollars?" Boss Ma asked him tentatively. He was not sure how much Ma Wei was willing to invest this time. After all, Alibaba has not yet made a penny for him to make money.
"Save 20 million?" Ma Wei asked subconsciously after hearing this. In fact, what he wanted to say was, "I, Ma Wei, are short of the 20 million US dollars! Why do you save me... What you want now is not saving, but to do eBay! to do EU!"
"Yes, Mr. Ma Wei, $20 million, do you see?" Boss Ma asked with a little nervousness.
At this time, Ma Wei blinked helplessly, and then said directly in the conference room, "Don't save too much, the money you should spend will still be spent. In this way, I will give you an extra $10 million to do this as best as possible."
Whether it is US$20 million or RMB30 million, it is a piece of cake for him now (invest more investments, the shareholding will be large at that time, and it will not lose money). The more important thing is to put the American ebay and the French Vivendi behind it! Use this to warn the EU that Mavie is not a soft persimmon, just pinch it!
As soon as Mavina's domineering words fell, Boss Ma, who was sitting in front of him, and the eighteen Alibaba partners, were shocked by his heroic spirit, and his eyes were stunned!
"Damn! This Russian foreigner is so awesome! Add an extra $10 million and your face will not change your face and your heart will not be beaten! How rich is this!?" A female partner couldn't help but think in her heart.
"No wonder Mr. Ma had such a grand reception. It turned out that this Russian investor was so awesome! He didn't blink at all!"
"We have made a lot of calculations and finally reduced the budget to 20 million US dollars. With this move, he had everything... Russian rich people are so terrible!"
...
Everyone was shocked by Ma Wei's spending thousands of dollars and could not extricate themselves. In fact, if possible, Ma Wei didn't want to invest the 10 million US dollars to show off in front of Alibaba compatriots.
But this was all bullied by the EU. If he didn't spend more money to fight back, the result would definitely make the other party more aggressive and think he was easy to bully!
"Mr. Ma Wei, $30 million...it seems a bit too much." Boss Ma felt a little sorry for his shares. Combined with the 25 million invested by Ma Wei last time, this totaled $55 million! Oh my god!
