Chapter 699 QQ Farm(2/2)

Lu Yiming bubbled up and immediately attracted everyone's attention. Ding Sanshi said unconvinced: "Mr. Lu, what are you doing? That's not the case, is it?"

At this time, Ding Sanshi had money in his hands and couldn't sit still. He wanted to find some investment opportunities. He saw the news and thought it was an outlet, so he brought it up for discussion. As a result, Lu Yiming poured cold water on him as soon as he appeared, which made him angry.

Very depressed.

As a result, Jack Ma also sided with Lu Yiming and exposed Ding Sanshi's fantasy mercilessly: "Tong Jiawei is just bragging. What's the point of having more orders? Which of his orders have been sold?"

Ma Jack has tried this type of B2B e-commerce before, and only lost money. Moreover, he is a master-level liar. Tong Jiawei’s rank is far behind Ma Jack’s, and he cannot be fooled at all.

.

Lu Yiming: "Pang Ding, if you want to make money, come to me."

Ding Sanshi: "Please give me some advice!"

Lu Yiming: "I'll tell you when I call dad."

Ding Sanshi: "...not to mention knocking him down."

Meishang.com was founded in 1998. It was once the leading comprehensive B2B website in China. The background of founder Tong Jiawei is even more prestigious, An Fangbin, MB of Wharton School of Business!

In terms of the amount of financing, Ari can only be regarded as a younger brother at the same time. The investors of Meishang.com’s younger brother even include international giants such as Citibank, IDG, the world’s largest data group, Motorola, and Stanley. The total financing amount is as high as 43 million US dollars.

.

It would take years to burn so much money!

However, the conflicts between management and investors continued, and the Internet bubble burst. After all, it could not survive the cold winter. When the Internet bubble burst, it collapsed suddenly, and it was a torment for itself.

It was only when Ding Sanshi mentioned Meishang.com that Lu Yiming remembered this.

Although Lu Yiming has invested in Majek, the fat meat of e-commerce, who is willing to make less money if he can eat more meat?

What's more, e-commerce is huge, and even Majek will not be the only one in the future.

Lu Yiming felt that he could definitely have a hand in this.

But ideas are ideas, and actually putting them into practice is not that easy.

Yixun Technology is now a social giant in Xia State. It is actually easier to build a virtual mall than Majek’s Alibaba. After all, the social software itself has a large number of Internet users.

As for the software development itself, it is quite simple. Lu Yiming even asked Zhang Xiaolong to develop the payment software, and the connection with the bank was almost completed. This was originally prepared for a virtual mall for purchasing game equipment and QQ business, but E-commerce can still be used.

However, when it comes to QQ's e-commerce business, Lu Yiming immediately thought of Paipai.com, QQ Mall, QQ Online Shopping, Yixun.com, etc.

These have all been played by Xiao Ma before, but without exception they all failed.

Why did it fail?

Because chat software and shopping software are naturally not two things that can be integrated together.

Lu Yiming turned around in his mind, but he couldn't find a leading general who could carry the flag. Even if Lu Yiming had some ideas, he couldn't lead a group of rabble to overthrow many competitors. Doing business is not that easy. Take a look at the Meishang.com You know, just having ideas is not enough.

The most important thing is that Jack Ma’s e-commerce platform has begun to take shape. Even if Lu Yiming is Ma Jack’s financial backer and father, the two have a good relationship in private and are brothers. But in this matter, Ma Jack is trying to seize the market. He will never be soft-hearted.

If you want to be an e-commerce company, you need someone who can compete with Majek.

Lu Yiming started to think about e-commerce while chatting in the group.

Soon, while browsing the news about Tong Jiawei, a name rushed into Lu Yiming's mind.

Wang Juntao!

This is a fierce man. He founded the 8848 website in 1999 and served successively as president and chairman. He quickly developed a shell company with only four employees and a capital of less than 160,000 yuan into a landmark enterprise in domestic e-commerce.

And it only took him eight months!

When Intel CEO Barrett visited China, he called 8848 the leader in China's e-commerce. When a domestic Internet competition evaluated China's outstanding websites, 8848 ranked first!

In February 2000, the American "Times" said that the 8848 website was the most popular e-commerce site in China. Five months later, 8848 was listed among the top ten websites in China by "Forbes" magazine.

Just this year, before Yixun Technology’s virtual mall was launched, 8848 became the most visited website among Xia Guo’s industrial and commercial websites, and successfully raised approximately US$60 million!

The most important thing is that this person is different from the superficial idiot like Tong Jiawei. He has real talent and learning!

Unfortunately, it was too easy for 8848 to succeed at that time, so the management team was inflated. Everyone wanted to make money by relying on hype concepts. No one planned to lay a good foundation. Only Wang Juntao remained calm and rational.

So his staff and shareholders worked together to kick the founder out of the company. Not long after that, 8848 was completely cool.

Why are the management and investors of 8848 so crazy? Are they all fools?

No, they're not stupid, they're just crazy.

It took two weeks for 8848 to grow from four to sixteen people, four months to grow from sixteen to one hundred and eighty, and six months to grow from selling only software and books to fifteen types of goods.

In March, it took less than six months for the shareholders to change from two to more than a dozen including Merrill Lynch and Goldman Sachs.

In just ten months, 8848 went from a Xia national currency worth more than 300,000 yuan to a value of 400 million U.S. dollars.

That's why they are crazy.

The entire Internet industry is full of such lunatics. Even Jack Ma once went crazy and lost his way. After raising money from Ahri, he went on a global expansion drive, opened a branch in the United States, and paid a lot of money to invite a bunch of foreigners to come and have free meals until the cold winter came.

Only then did he wake up from the cold.

Precisely because there are too many lunatics in the Internet industry, it can better demonstrate the value of wise people.

You know, Wang Juntao, the "father of e-commerce" in China, has remained completely calm and rational from beginning to end.

"Well, it's just him, poaching corners or something, it's really more interesting to poach the CEO directly."
