Chapter 295 [Ali is facing the difficult choice]

Hangzhou, Alibaba headquarters.

In a conference room, Alibaba, the largest e-commerce giant in China, is also one of the four famous "balt" giants, gathered together.

For Alibaba recently, the new year has also come with frequent actions and ambitiousness. A series of plans may be rolled out or brewed, which inevitably caused business chaos and the person in charge resigned.

Mr. Zhang, who had just joined Ali for less than two years, was appointed to manage the Baobao Mall and took the initiative to come and help. He has seen that b2c is the general trend in the future. He cannot watch it die, causing Ali to miss this trend.

Mr. Zhang, a "temporary worker", not only quickly led the treasure to the right track, but also invented and established this year the "Double Eleven" shopping festival that may have a profound change in the shopping habits of China and even the world.

Although Luo Sheng is the most dazzling technology expert of this era, his light cannot cover up the shining of others.

However, Mr. Zhang also had a failure. In Luo Sheng's previous life, Mr. Zhang encountered the "October Siege" incident when he first took office. The reason was that he increased the original merchant's technical service fee and breach of contract deposit several times.

In the end, President Ma came forward to compromise at a critical moment before he settled the matter.

However, the Tabao Mall has not yet been renamed "Tmall" at this time, and I don't know if it will be changed by Mr. Zhang. After all, the development trajectory of this world has changed too much.

In the conference room at this moment, Mr. Ma sat in a casual and casual manner... Well, to put it bluntly, just put two legs on the table, don't be too casual.

"I know nothing about technology, but I know that no matter how wide a moat is, it cannot withstand innovation. Innovation has always been a problem for large companies. We are indeed unable to compare with the innovation of Blue Star Group. There is nothing to be ashamed of. Silicon Valley has to be convinced, and we cannot compare with the super-large scale of this company, but we should be considered a large company, at least we have encountered the problem of innovation."

The person who spoke was Mr. Ma, but for a moment he looked at Mr. Zhang: "Redefining things is already your habit of Xiaoyaozi. You often use Azure to redefine your smartphone as an example. What do you think?"

Facing the speech of his immediate boss, Mr. Zhang looked at him, and thought for a moment, and then made a powerful speech: "I think what we need now is not to analyze people's past behavior to predict the future, but to kill a path that no one has seen before, redefining new things in the future like an Azure mobile phone."

It is worth mentioning that "Xiaoyaozi" at this time is not Ali's partner, but he is definitely one of the core executives of this domestic e-commerce giant.

Speaking of this, Mr. Zhang looked around everyone attending the meeting, and finally his eyes fell on Mr. Ma and said unwaveringly: "I still insist on the 'all-in' wireless terminal. Although there are less than 30 to 40 million mobile Internet users now, I mean the real mobile Internet users. I think this is a good thing. Even if a good thing has no past, it has a future."

After saying that, Mr. Zhang took out an Azure-3g smartphone from his pocket, slid it on the desktop of the screen a few times and then showed it to everyone, adding: "Everyone, do you know what I feel when I see the ui interface now? When I seem to have toggle and turn, I haven't even found the Baobao app from this 4-inch screen, and there is not even a single app from our Alibaba, I will always be inexplicably scared and my hair stands upside down."

"B2c is the big trend in the future, and even more so with the mobile Internet. In any case, we must complete the transformation from the PC era to the mobile era as soon as possible. This is a thrilling leap, but we really can't delay it for a long time. Tengxun has almost leap, let alone Blue Star Technology. If you go on as soon as possible, you will have a chance to become the world's largest mobile e-commerce platform. This leap is very thrilling, but this is worth taking."

Everyone looked at each other, but Mr. Ma said nothing.

But in the end, he made a decision at the meeting, which made Alibaba thrillingly jump.

This internal meeting is of historic significance to Alibaba. At this meeting, Mr. Ma finally made the decision and decided to fully deploy the mobile Internet.

However, the meeting process has not ended here. Mr. Ma said: "Let's talk about the recent rumors. There is no wind or wave, but we can't follow the crowd. Is it true or false? Is there any more reliable news?"

Of course, he is referring to the recent news that Blue Star Technology Cloud Service Nebula Star-cloud open source is still circulating. Major companies are all thinking about it, and Alibaba is no exception.

"have!"

Everyone looked at Mr. Cai, and he was the one who just responded. After a moment, he added: "My relationship with Lu Qi, the current top person in charge of cloud computing services in Blue Star Technology, is pretty good. I made a private phone call yesterday afternoon and talked about this matter."

Mr. Ma smiled with interest: "So, have you spyed on the secret information? Let's hear it!"

Mr. Cai smiled and said, "Lu Qi's answer is that the rumors are now fake, but he told me that Bluestar Technology will do an open source project for cloud services recently, and it will be announced soon."

As soon as these words were said, everyone suddenly realized and was surprised.

Mr. Ma slapped his legs and laughed: "It's a pity. According to my opinion, the trend of open source remarks that are now circulating in the industry is the result of the self-directed and self-acted by Blue Star Group. It is definitely not just us, but most others have gone to spy on the intelligence."

An executive at the meeting said: "Is that understandable as the subtext of Blue Star Group's move that means... Those who want to play cloud computing are waiting for me to make news? I, Luo Sheng, will take you to play together?"

Mr. Ma nodded slowly: "**Never leave ten."

Mr. Zhang, who attended the meeting, couldn't help but sigh: "Blue Star Technology has really done this. Once a new open source project is launched, there will be various clouds all over the world in less than three to five years. Nebula star-cloud will probably form a "stars arch the moon" position in the future cloud computing field, holding on to it, and wanting to shake Luo Sheng's dominance in the cloud service field is almost slim, and the strong will always be strong."

Speaking of this, Mr. Zhang couldn't help but joke: "It's so difficult for me to be a competitor with such a person."

The managers attending the meeting couldn't help but burst into laughter when they heard this. Mr. Zhang's words were a bit gloating. You should know that Yunge Search is now eroding Baidu's search kingdom bit by bit, and Baidu has no way of doing this. This is the most helpless and terrifying thing.

At this time, an executive who would be with Ah Li couldn't help but say: "When it comes to this, I'm actually very confused. Bluestar Technology Group started its first year of establishment, or to be precise, the second year. It started to fight Teng Xun and Baidu since 2004. It has been more than 5 years since the competition, but for such a long time, the other party has not been involved in the e-commerce business. Do you look down on us?"

Hearing this, President Ma immediately spoke: "Hey, I wish he looked down on us. He finally killed ebay and the remaining few have not been cleaned up yet. If Blue Star Group is no matter where it is in trouble, no domestic Internet company will be unhappy."

After a while, Mr. Cai continued to talk about what he had privately chatted with Lu Qi: "Lu Qi suggested that Ali's 'Fei Tian' be temporarily put on, and wait for Blue Star's open source platform, which can provide a perfect solution to the many technical pain points of the Fei Tian system at that time."

Speaking of this, Mr. Cai couldn't help but sigh, even a little helpless, with a complicated look.

Mr. Ma said something in a teasing tone that made everyone feel cold:

"There are many technical pain points in Feitian system, and it can be said that there are countless pain points. Our engineers still don't know how to solve them. They are confused at all. However, before solving the pain points, you must first figure out what Blue Star Group is here to do. If Luo Sheng's eyes are not very good and accidentally solve Alibaba itself as a pain point, it will be a big trouble."

Mr. Ma said this very funny and humorously. After saying it, he smiled, but no matter how hard he smiled, he felt that he was forcing his face to smile. Behind this, there was actually suffering, and even felt a chill...

The executives attending the meeting were either silenced or smiled bitterly.

Obviously, Alibaba is mixed with joy and worries about Bluestar Technology Group's upcoming cloud computing open source project. What is happy is that the technical pain points of Feitian system may be solved, and what is worried is that Luo Sheng will solve Alibaba together.

This is not the disease caused by persecution. This is a treacherous shopping mall. If you don’t wear any armor on your body, someone might just stab you in the back and die.

As the helmsman of an enterprise, it is necessary to consider and be consciously guarded to be a qualified helmsman.

But the situation is not like this now. The facts in cloud computing are more desperate and cruel than this, because even if you know, you should be alert.

But it's meaningless.

This is the fundamental willingness that everyone present smiled bitterly.

You still have to use it, you have no choice, you have to risk being solved by the other party to solve the technical pain points. Who makes you unable to solve the technical pain points yourself?

If Bluestar Technology launches a cloud computing open source project, it will inevitably lead to one consequence: the threshold for the entire industry will be lowered at once, and more people will play.

Alibaba's advantages will soon be erased.

Before, there may only be dozens of companies entering this field, and only a few may survive in the end, but now the threshold has been lowered, and dozens of companies may suddenly enter this field, and dozens of companies may survive in the end.

If Ah Li can't handle her skills and doesn't come in to play, she will fall behind immediately, and then she will have no more to play.

Unless everyone is not interested in Bluestar Technology's cloud computing open source project, ignore it, and reach an alliance to confront Bluestar Technology.

But is this realistic?

The nature of human nature towards privateness will inevitably appear "Erwuzi". Maybe here is shouting for unity against the evil hegemony of Blue Star Technology, and behind the scenes, they are already working hard to build their own private cloud with the solutions of open source projects.

Therefore, even if this so-called alliance can be achieved, it will be fragile. It doesn't even require Blue Star Technology to take action, and they will soon collapse.

The world is bustling and bustling, and I can only seek liberty.

Ali's meeting ended, and the Feitian system continued to advance. It could not stop. The funds here were never saved. Ali's senior management would not really choose to trust just by Lu Qi's words.

That's not wise, nor clever, it's extremely stupid.

While Ah Li was sure that Feitian system would continue to be developed, she also had a backup plan. If Bluestar Technology Group really launched a reliable cloud computing open source project, then there was no choice, otherwise it would be even more terrible to fall behind and would directly lose the opportunity.

I have already seized the opportunity of cloud computing, but if I lose it again, I will definitely feel heartbroken and unacceptable.

The price of trial and error of a company is only to lose some money, but if it makes a mistake, the price may be an existential crisis.
