Chapter 985 Amazon's New President
Everyone thinks Huang He's agreement is crazy and completely unreasonable. He actually believes that Amazon will have a market value of trillions in the future.
But what if something happens?
If it does happen, what should I do if Huang He wants to unconditionally take back his shares at a price of US$50 billion in accordance with this agreement?
So when the time comes, I can only listen to Huang He honestly and never dare to make Huang He angry, otherwise the other party can directly take back the shares. This damn man can really control himself to death!
Huang He's agreement is almost a conspiracy, and it is a conspiracy that no one here can refuse.
The loss of all shares will be doubled in three years. This is an irresistible condition for everyone in trouble. As for the right of compulsory repurchase of shares held by Jiangnan Group, we still have to wait for Amazon to really
Let’s talk about it if it can achieve a market value of over US$50 billion.
For Boss Huang, this is naturally a loss-making transaction, but one thing is that it can firmly bind all the institutions here to his own chariot. In order to obtain the shares promised by Jiangnan Group in three years
Amazon must survive the buyback for three years, and they must support Huang He unconditionally.
And three years later, if Amazon's market value exceeds 100 billion US dollars, then in order to prevent Huang He from being forced to repurchase shares, all of them will have to lick Jiangnan Group and do everything possible to test Huang He's happiness.
In the end, everyone here signed these two cooperation agreements, and such a close coalition of interests was born through the cooperation under these two agreements.
After the agreement was signed, Huang He said with a smile, "Now, please let me introduce to you our new president of Amazon. He will be fully responsible for the entire operation of Amazon for a long time to come."
"Amazon's new president? Is there anyone willing to jump into this pit now?" After hearing Boss Huang's introduction, everyone present was a little surprised.
Because in their opinion, Amazon at this time is definitely a mud pit within a mud pit. Peppa Pig can’t even jump on it and can only be buried alive. At this time, there are actually people willing to jump in and become the president of Amazon.
?
Under such curious eyes, a man walked into the conference room with steps that seemed calm but actually a little panicked.
What surprised but not surprised everyone was that this person still had an Asian face.
Well, it is very reasonable for the Chinese Huang He to use a new Chinese person as the president of Amazon. But it is very unreasonable to let a Chinese person try to lead the rebirth of Amazon.
"Dear gentlemen and ladies, hello everyone. Let me introduce myself. My name is Liu Qiangdong. I was previously the chairman of Oriental Express Company in the United States and is now CEO of Amazon. Thank you, Chairman Huang, for your personal trust and support.
In the coming time, I will comprehensively
Lead the recovery and rebirth of Amazon!" Although it can be seen that this Chinese man is somewhat lacking in confidence, and even his English is not fluent, but you can faintly feel a sense of confidence deep in his body, as if
He really has a way to bring Amazon back to life.
"Oriental Express? It's the emerging express delivery company that claims to challenge FedEx!" What surprised these institutional bosses was that they had actually heard of the name Oriental Express, and it was even on the investment lists of many institutional bosses.
.
There is no way, but in the past year or so, Oriental Express has really made a lot of noise.
Previously, in the United States, the express delivery industry was dominated by two companies: FedEx and United Parcel Service.
One of the two has extensive express delivery business around the world, and the school even has hundreds of planes dedicated to carrying out transportation work. The latter specializes in the U.S. package market and has very cheap express transportation prices, and it was seized by FedEx.
A big bowl of market.
This is basically the pattern of express delivery companies in the entire United States. Because express delivery companies are no better than other companies and need to have outlets across the country, the financial needs of express delivery companies are very huge.
Once the business volume of an express delivery company cannot support its costs, the only option for the express delivery company is bankruptcy. Therefore, most American express delivery companies have been squeezed and collapsed by these two giants.
There are only a few express delivery companies left that specialize in one or two routes, struggling to make a living in the market. This was the previous pattern of the entire market.
The entire capital market once believed that this pattern cannot be changed within at least 30 years, unless a large enterprise invests heavily in entering the entire express delivery market, which may change this situation.
But you don’t have to wait 30 years. In just about a year, this situation is changing because a company called Oriental Express was born.
This Oriental Express was established in New York, the absolute commercial center of the United States. At the beginning, this express company had only one route, which was from New York, the capital of New York State, to the two metropolitan areas of San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles in California.
.
This seems very inconspicuous at first, because countless small express delivery companies do this. They only operate one route to minimize their costs and gain survival space.
But if you take a closer look, you will find that Oriental Express is different. So this express company only operates one line, but both ends of the line cover the entire New York City and the San Francisco Bay metropolitan area in California and Los Angeles.
Metropolitan areas, the two most central areas in California.
In the areas on both sides, Oriental Express has built 108 outlets in one go. These outlets have an average radius of about 10 kilometers, perfectly covering all areas at both ends of the line.
Then Oriental Express began to place its own advertisements in local media newspapers and websites where its outlets are located.
It is not unusual to place advertisements, but what is strange is that Oriental Express claims in the advertisement that any parcels and mails from New York to California can be delivered to your doorstep or company in only three days, or
It is a place covered by any network.
It also ensures that the items are delivered safely and smoothly. Even items as valuable as porcelain can be delivered perfectly and smoothly as long as they are insured and transported in advance. Otherwise, the express company will compensate for the original price.
Seeing such a promise, all Americans were shocked. They didn't believe that any express company dared to make such a promise. This is absolutely a fantasy in the United States.
If you want to know how far-fetched this thing is, you must first find out how bad the express delivery industry in the United States is at this time.
For users who use express delivery services, what they hope for most is that express delivery can have an excellent experience in terms of timeliness, safety, and convenience. These three characteristics are also called express delivery.
Three elements (rules compiled by Boss Huang himself)
In other words, a courier can arrive at the destination on time in a short period of time;
At the same time, during the transportation process, the express delivery will not be damaged in any way, and the security and privacy of the express delivery sender and receiver can also be guaranteed;
And in the end, whether it is pickup or delivery, it must be delivered to the last centimeter, directly picked up from the user's hands, and then delivered to the user's hands.
Rather than letting users travel thousands of miles to pick up express delivery by themselves, these are the three most important user experiences for express delivery companies.
So in terms of timeliness, as the most powerful FedEx company in the United States at this time, their promise to users is that intra-city express delivery will be delivered within three days, interstate express delivery will be delivered within one week, and express delivery with a straight-line distance of more than 1,500 kilometers, a
Delivered within the month.
Don’t think this time is too ridiculous. This is the reality of the express delivery industry in the United States at this time. Express delivery from New York to California that goes directly from the easternmost part of the United States to the westernmost part of the country will take a month to transport.
.
Of course, you can also use the most advanced VIP air express services provided by FedEx. These express services can shorten the maximum transportation time from New York to California to less than three days. But the problem is that the cost of using air express services is so expensive for everyone.
The scalp is numb, and even top rich people like Bill Gates bluntly say that they cannot use such express delivery because it is too expensive.
This is true for the top rich, let alone ordinary users. They can only wait patiently for a month.
But that’s fine if it can really be delivered within the set time limit. However, according to statistics, more than 10% of express delivery ultimately exceeds the transportation time limit. The longest express delivery even took 54 years to be delivered.
In the hands of the user, it is simply ridiculous to open the door to the ridiculous, and it is so ridiculous.
This is the timeliness of express delivery in the entire United States, so American e-commerce websites will never sell any time-sensitive products, because the products will definitely be damaged during transportation.
After talking about timeliness, we have to talk about the safety of the product.
There is no need to worry too much about privacy. After all, normal people will not be interested in the privacy of both parties. What is really bad is the damage to the express delivery itself.
First of all, express delivery in the United States is absolutely violent. There is no standard in the whole process. Everything is done as easily as possible. I won’t go into details about the specific logistics and transportation links. Ordinary people can’t see these. Just say one thing.
What all ordinary people can see is that when the express truck finally arrives at your doorstep carrying the express delivery, these couriers will never come down with the express delivery and place it gently at your doorstep.
Just throw it from the car to your door, and then drive away.
This frustrating situation is not unique. More than 30% of express delivery companies enjoy this kind of treatment. Even some express delivery companies have marked the words "Easy to damage, do not drop" on the packaging boxes. If you encounter a delivery person who is in a bad mood,
If so, then just throw it away like this.
According to statistics, more than 20% of express delivery in the United States will suffer more or less losses during logistics, and about 20% of them will be damaged to the point of being completely unusable.
The most classic story is that an American bought an iron rod online. When the iron pipe was delivered to his home, the iron pipe had been bent. As for how it was bent, it was unclear.
.
Someone else bought a bottle of ketchup. When the ketchup arrived, the ketchup was still ketchup, but it was all flowing inside the package... The glass jar containing the ketchup had been smashed to pieces.
Finally, there is the convenience of express delivery. This is the only thing that can be praised, because most Americans live in single-family houses, so the express delivery only needs to be dropped at the door of the house, and it is indeed delivered to the last one kilometer.
But as for whether the courier will be stolen by others when it is placed at the door, that is not a question that the courier has to worry about, but a question of whether the folk customs of your city are honest.
