1097. A Different History
It turned out that it was these days when Wang Teng happened to be on a business trip to the capital, so he called Li Yifan and asked if he was in the capital. Wang Teng also knew that Li Yifan was very busy and it was not easy to see him. It happened that he had something to discuss with Li Yifan. After all, he could still trust the eyes of this little brother.
Of course, Li Yifan had to agree to the invitation. It happened that he had not met for a while. He was about to meet, so he made an appointment to find a place to meet in the afternoon, so he hung up the phone.
Gao Fangfang was still bathing Xiao Yifan hard under Li Yifan, but at this time Li Yifan's thoughts had already flown out of the sky.
With his participation in this life, the development of Wang Teng’s forty thieves company is very different from that in his previous life.
In his previous life, Wang Teng established the top 40 thieves in 2000, but he spent two years setting up a stand-up and then searched for funds all over the world to raise funds and develop enterprises.
It took him a year to find funds, and it took him two years to start making a profit. It was not until the third year that he began to enter the b2c field, which was to start developing. He made him a great success in his magical skills in the future.
The net will have to wait until 2004 and 2005 after investment and profit.
In this life, because of the participation of Li Yifan, Wang Teng's forty thieves never worried about funding issues.
Originally, for the sake of funds, he successively gave up part of the company's original shares to investment giants like Japan's SoftBank, which was the only way to get some funds.
Later, when he developed the Little Picker Network, he did not even use the powerful killer weapons like Little Picker Network and Alipay. He was independent of the Forty Thieves websites, but was always under the name of the Forty Thieves websites.
As a result, it laid the root of the future development of the bargaining network. A few years later, when the wealthy Americans saw that the website of the Forty Thieves was developing well, they directly took out one billion US dollars and exchanged nearly 30% of the shares of the Forty Thieves from him.
Ten years later, due to inflation in China, the era when the market amount of the bargaining network had exceeded one trillion yuan, Americans couldn't help but start picking peaches.
He kept instigating trouble on the board of directors, forcing Wang Teng to take out the forty thieves to go public. How could Wang Teng not know what these Americans were thinking?
Although he also wants to go public, this does not mean that he wants to lose control of the company. This company was developed by him one by one, and he doesn't want Americans to pick peaches.
As a result, he had been stalemate with Americans on the company's listing issue, which eventually led to him having to resign from his position as general manager.
This shows the consequences caused by the blind introduction of funds to the company.
But in this life, these hidden dangers were sent by Li Yifan, who was foresighted.
First of all, when the Forty Thieves were established, Li Yifan knew that this was destined to be a short-legged website. Because there was no international platform, this website had innate defects compared to American-backed websites such as Amazon or e-bay.
Americans, or foreigners, cannot recognize you as a B2B trading platform from China in this way. Even if they agree, Americans cannot agree.
The real rise of Wang Teng’s forty thieves in his previous life was not based on the website of the Forty thieves, but on the website of the b2c business model that shone brightly in China later.
Li Yifan instilled the concept of b2c in Wang Teng before he even operated a website model like b2c. At the beginning of the establishment of this website, he independently developed the website from the top 40 thieves, and also increased his controlling stake in this website, basically reaching the same proportion as Wang Teng, but he did not participate in the business.
Moreover, Alipay, one of the magic weapons for future generations, also became a real third-party payment platform and an independent company under his instructions at the forty thieves websites.
As for this company, he also has a holding of 50%, but he does not participate in the company's business management.
The reason why he and Wang Teng are able to cooperate so happily is precisely because of his uninvolved attitude towards the company's operations.
On the one hand, it is because he believes in Wang Teng's management ability. After all, the legendary Internet empire in his previous life was built by Wang Teng himself.
The second aspect is also because he knows Wang Teng’s desire to control himself. Although everyone is good and good, everyone is good, but in fact, people have selfish intentions, not to mention that Wang Teng is actually a person with strong control.
This can be seen from the fact that he refused to take out the forty thieves to list in his previous life, and that he demanded absolute control of the company.
Although he has shares and has feelings for Wang Teng, the key is that he gave Wang Teng decisive guidance at the key points of Wang Teng's business development. Most of the time, he does not participate in the company's operations and management at all, but when the time comes, he will get dividends. This attitude is the main reason why Wang Teng can live in harmony with him.
In this life, because of his purity, Wang Teng has avoided many detours. First of all, at the beginning of the development of the Forty Thieves, he was not robbed by the Japanese because of Li Yifan's financial support.
The second time was when Yahoo took out 500 million US dollars in one go and asked for the forty thieves to share, the two teamed up to dig a huge pit for the Americans.
The data on the Forty Thieves websites was very beautiful, but when the Americans asked for shares in Alipay, the two of them gave them openly, of course, the premise was that the shares they gave were not very large.
On the other hand, it is also because Li Yifan knew that after a few years, the country would issue relevant regulations that would not allow foreign capital to control domestic third-party payment platforms.
And they set a trap for the Americans in the contract. If you have to sell this part of the shares due to national factors, you can only sell them to us, and the price cannot be higher than a lot of money.
The Americans are happy to accept it, while he and Wang Teng made a big profit.
With this capital injection, over the past year, the top 40 thieves and the bargaining website have made great progress.
Before 2008 arrived, the domestic export-oriented economy has actually been a carriage that drives domestic economic development.
Although the Forty Thieves Platforms do not have much influence internationally, they have at least a big impact in China. Many domestic small and medium-sized enterprises are rushing to advertise on their websites.
The net has been growing at an astonishing rate in recent years due to the popularity of private computers. Although it is a bit unavailable compared with the scale of annual sales exceeding one trillion yuan in later generations, at least in this idea, its growth rate is still quite considerable.
Alipay, a third-party payment platform, has become more and more popular due to the growth of the top 40 thieves and bargaining websites, and is becoming more and more popular, with more and more users.
The three companies have now entered a virtuous cycle, but I don’t know what kind of tricks Wang Teng has to rush out this time.
"Hey! What do you think?"
Suddenly, my lower body felt cold, and then the little brother actually got hit. Li Yifan looked up and Gao Fangfang was looking at him with resentment on his face.
I have been wandering around in the sky for a while. My little brother has climbed down because he is not focused. Gao Fangfang has worked under him for a long time, but the result is this. How can he not be angry?
Li Yifan hurriedly said sorry, then hugged Gao Fangfang in his arms, comforted her a lot, and after concentration, he picked up his gun and started galloping.
After a while, Li Yifan got out of bed and punched her, and her muscles and bones were getting hot. She felt much better. She took a shower and then left the door.
The place I made with Wang Teng was in Houhai, which has now become a well-known small garden area in Beijing. However, the commercial atmosphere is getting stronger and stronger, and Li Yifan doesn't like it very much.
But at this time, the weather in the capital is extremely stuffy, so it is not bad to go to a place with water to escape the heat.
There were many large pleasure boats parked on the shore of Houhai at this time. In fact, these were all pleasure boats created by the catering company. One pleasure boat is a large private room.
In half an evening, I was rafting on the lake, eating delicious food, and watching the beautiful scenery, and enjoying it. Even if I wanted such a service, the price you had to pay was also quite high.
But now this price is a small amount of money for people like Li Yifan and Wang Teng.
After getting on the boat and coming to the second floor, Wang Teng had been waiting there. Seeing Li Yifan coming up, Wang Teng laughed and greeted him.
I still look like before. I am not tall and thin, but my hair is much shorter and whiter than before.
"Brother Wang, you said that your business is so big, your money is too much, and you eat a lot of delicious food. Why don't you eat fat?"
"Haha, I'm also surprised. I want to grow some meat, why is it so difficult! But you kid is getting more handsome as you grow older, haha, I heard from Hao Jun that you kid have caught a lot of beauties recently, haha, when will you introduce one or two to my brother?"
"Hehe, as long as you dare, I will introduce you to it. Are you not afraid that your sister-in-law will ask you to kneel on the keyboard when she goes back?"
"Go, don't come here..."
