Wuzhen.

teahouse.

Liu Xiahui and Mr. Ma Commercial swear together for a while before they began to get to the topic of this meeting.

Mr. Ma showed a faint smile and asked, "Mr. Liu, you asked me to come out for a private meeting this time. I think there is something to tell me, right?"

"I know I can't hide it from Mr. Ma. I really have something to say when I ask Mr. Ma to come out this time!"

Liu Xiahui organized a language and said, "You may not believe it when you say it, Mr. Ma. The reason why I got involved in the mobile social field and created a world-class APP, WeChat, was actually aimed at the mobile payment field!"

Mr. Ma was shocked and listened silently to the industry's secrets.

I heard Liu Xiahui continue to say: "Mr. Ma, you should know that my main business is catering. If Mr. Ma has investigated me, you should know that in recent years, I have been committed to building a closed-loop catering industry. From the production area (ingredients/fresh food)-sales channels (diding in/takeout)-payment (cash/no cash)-distribution (logistics/cold chain), I cannot be controlled by others in any link.

So, after all other links are solved, the only link of cashless payment is left."

Speaking of this, Liu Xiahui smiled and said, "Mr. Ma, you may not know that in order to save trouble, I met Teacher Ma in Feihang City as soon as possible. I wanted to try to use the method of investing in Alipay to solve the cashless payment process, which completely completes the catering closed loop I envisioned!

Unfortunately, Mr. Ma, you should have guessed that Teacher Ma rejected me!"

Hearing this, Mr. Ma couldn't help but sigh: "Teacher Ma probably never dreamed that his refusal caused a terrifying competitor and caused me to suffer from the disaster!"

Liu Xiahui took a sip of tea and smiled and said, "There is no way. Since Teacher Ma does not agree to my investment, and I don't want my catering empire to be controlled by others one day because of mobile payment, so I can only do mobile payment by myself!"

Mr. Ma couldn't help asking: "Mr. Liu, I'm really curious. If you do mobile payment, you can take the Alipay route and then develop based on your catering empire. This is also a relatively safe way. Why did you enter the field of mobile social?"

Liu Xiahui said: "I have actually considered what Mr. Ma said, but with Alipay, a mountain pressing forward, it is too difficult to truly become bigger and stronger. If mobile payment cannot become bigger and stronger, it will be meaningless for the catering closed loop I want to build, so I can only find another way and choose the mobile social field as the entry point!"

Mr. Ma nodded repeatedly and said, "Mr. Liu is right. If Mr. Liu really took a similar route to Alipay and wanted to stand out under the rule of Alipay, there was really no hope. However, mobile payment and mobile social networking are completely different areas. How did Mr. Liu connect the two together?"

Liu Xiahui laughed and said, "In fact, this is actually inspired by you, Mr. Ma. Didn't I say that I am a loyal user of QQ and have recharged Q coins a lot. At that time, I thought about various possibilities, and finally felt that in addition to having a natural fit with e-commerce, mobile social can perfectly match it!"

Mr. Ma held the teacup and sighed: "Mr. Liu, you are really a genius!"

"Mr. Ma has over the award!"

Liu Xiahui waved his hand and said, "I know Mr. Ma, your core of your Tencent Empire is socialization. This is also the reason why you Tencent immediately launched Q letter to fight me after I created the WeChat mobile social software!"

Hearing this, Mr. Ma's face looked a little embarrassed.

Liu Xiahui continued: "In the past two years, you and I have been competing all-roundly around WeChat and Q letters, whether it is the early red envelope war, the launch of financial products, the recent taxi-hailing software war, the shared bicycle war, etc.

In addition to these, it can be imagined that as long as it involves the mobile payment field, you and I will never avoid a war that will continue to break out.

If the market is only competitive between us, that is a good thing. As the saying goes, there will be development only with competition! But in addition to you and me, there is also Alipay, a powerful rival that cannot be ignored.

So, I thought about it for a while and finally made a decision…”

Speaking of this, Liu Xiahui looked at Mr. Ma and said calmly: "Instead of wasting energy and money to compete with each other, it is better for us to combine two families into one and make the cake bigger together!"

Hearing this, Mr. Ma was shocked and couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "You and I have merged?"

Liu Xiahui nodded and smiled: "Yes, merger, WeChat and Q-sense functions are almost the same. Competing with each other will only waste resources. Once merged, with the strength of you and me, both in the mobile social field and the mobile payment field, they will dominate one. Even Alipay will be severely suppressed by us!"

Mr. Ma was really excited when he heard this, because Liu Xiahui was talking about a merger, not who acquired whom. The merger proposal was really exciting. Once the two companies merged together, the benefits were really too many.

Although Mr. Ma tried his best to support QX and spent a lot of money again and again for the development of QX, QX, which started late, started late and lost all the opportunities, no matter how hard he struggled, he could not catch up with WeChat.

The gap between the two is too big!

But social networking is the core of Tencent. Even if you can't catch up with WeChat, Mr. Ma will never give up Q letters.

Therefore, you can only spend money and compete with WeChat in an all-round way, and even if you are not as good as your opponent, you will have to stubbornly fight.

Once merged, an opponent who was once powerful enough to surpass would become his own. This kind of good thing has no reason to refuse Mr. Ma.

However, although Mr. Ma is one of the main founders of Tencent and is also the chairman and CEO of the board of directors, some major decisions of the group company still need to be passed through the board of directors and cannot make arbitrarily.

This is the difference between Tencent Group and Liu Group.

Of course, then again, unless it is an jeopardy of Tencent's decision, Mr. Ma's decision is basically the final decision, and passing the board of directors is just a procedure.

"Mr. Liu, I have to say that your proposal is really hard for me to refuse. I don't know how the shares are distributed after the merger of you and me (WeChat and Qx)?"

Liu Xiahui had an idea about this and answered directly: "After the merger, you three and seven, you Tencent holds 30% of the shares, and I, Liu Group holds 70% of the shares. Mr. Ma, you should feel my sincerity, because if you really count based on the value of WeChat and Q letters, you Tencent should have made a profit!"

Mr. Ma really can't deny this. Currently, the value of WeChat is indeed a few streets higher than that of Q. If it is really converted based on the value of both, it would be good that Tencent could account for 25%.

Mr. Ma took a deep breath and said, "I have indeed felt Mr. Liu's sincerity. In principle, I agree with this matter. Let's talk about the specific merger details after the end of this World Internet Conference!"

Liu Xiahui didn't object to the result at all. After all, this is a great thing that can benefit both parties. He picked up the teacup and smiled: "Mr. Ma, then use tea instead of wine. I wish us a happy cooperation!"

Mr. Ma also picked up the teacup and touched Liu Xiahui, and smiled and said, "Well, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

No one knew that just by drinking tea, the two big guys reached an agreement that could shock the Internet.

...

In the next three days, Liu Xiahui participated in this extremely high-quality World Internet Conference according to the conference schedule.

At the meeting, listening to speeches from all walks of life was one of the highlights.

Originally, Liu Xiahui was also among the speakers, but he refused. According to him, he was just a junior high school graduate and was not qualified to go up and give speeches to all the seniors.

Of course, it’s okay for everyone to listen to such humble words. There is no simple person who can become a big shot in the industry. As the semi-public richest man, Liu Xiahui’s ability is beyond doubt!

During the conference, Boss Ding, the host, started a dinner party for the boss just like in his previous life.

However, whether it is in the past or present life, Boss Ding's first big boss dinner had little influence, and he just invited a few friends to have a small gathering.

It was not until the following few sessions that more and more big shots were invited to participate, especially big shots of Tencent, Mr. Ma, who attended, and the big shots were talked about by the outside world.

After these three days, Liu Xiahui's gains were still very big.

Let’s not talk about foreigners for the time being, domestic Internet giants all greeted him actively or passively.

Although it is far from being a question of having any friendship, the relationship is all about relationships. Although Liu Xiahui wants to know more big shots and expand his connections, isn’t it the same for other big shots?

Liu Xiahui is the semi-public richest man. His influence on the Internet may be a little different from a behemoth like Tencent and Alibaba. But you must know that the Internet is just his side business. If the main business of catering is included, there are not many big shots who are qualified to be compared with him. Who doesn’t want to make friends with such existence?

All the big guys were busy, and after the conference, everyone parted ways.

After returning to the group headquarters, Mr. Ma immediately convened a board meeting to discuss the merger of Q letter and WeChat.

The directors had already received the news three days ago, and they all acted very excited.

After all, Tencent’s core is social networking. In the previous Internet social networking, they had the QQ social software, which was the only powerful existence in China that no one could shake.

Unfortunately, after entering the mobile Internet era, WeChat, the mobile social software, emerged, directly shaking Tencent's foundation, forcing Tencent to follow the trend and create Q letters to confront it.

However, even if you have the behemoth of QQ as an endorsement, QQ still cannot match WeChat. Whether it is a registered user, the market share occupied by mobile payment, or user stickiness, it is lagging behind its competitors in all aspects.

There is even no hope of transcending!

Tencent really doesn't want to accept this result, so it can only strive to catch up. Even if it knows that it can't beat its opponent, it will have to spend money hard. In this mobile social field, any Internet company can withdraw, but Tencent can't!

Originally, Tencent was worried about the future of QQ, and didn’t know when this ten thousand-year-old second child would be. With the development of the mobile Internet, Tencent, which lost its initiative, still has the chance to become the only overlord like QQ.

Moreover, because of the existence of WeChat, Tencent’s market value has been greatly affected.

Against this background, the directors suddenly received news that Q-Xin wanted to merge with their desperate opponent WeChat. Although they knew that Tencent would definitely receive lower shares after the merger than WeChat, the directors still made them ecstatic!

This thing is like financing. Although the shares have become smaller, because the cake has become bigger, the cake is distributed much more than before!

By the same token, although Qxin and WeChat have obtained fewer shares than the other party after the merger, their status on the mobile Internet after the merger is the same as QQ's position on the Internet, and it is invincible!

The most important thing is that the effect of the merger of the two is definitely one plus one greater than two, which is a good thing for both parties.

Therefore, the directors agreed to the merger, which was expected by Mr. Ma.

Then, Mr. Ma said that their shares were only 30%, and the directors also had no objection. To be honest, as Liu Xiahui said, if you estimate the value of Qxin and WeChat, Qxin will not even get 30% of the shares.

Now, people generously gave up 30% of their shares, and they are already very sincere in cooperation!

After the board of directors passed, in order to avoid the long nights and dreams, President Ma contacted Liu Xiahui that day. After the two finalized the general direction of the merger, the details were left to their respective leaders to discuss.

Then, in just one week, both parties who have feelings and intentions agreed to everything.

So, on the first Monday in December, Mr. Ma personally led his team to Guizhou Province, and signed a merger agreement with WeChat, a subsidiary of Tencent Group, on behalf of Qxin, a subsidiary of Liu Group!

After the two were merged, the name WeChat is still used.

Of course, it is just signing a contract at the moment. Real merger is not that simple. It requires step-by-step data from both parties. This is a big project.

Whether it is Tencent Group or Liu Group, they are all well-known groups in China. Their every move has attracted much attention. Super big events like the merger of WeChat and Qxin will definitely not be concealed.

Besides, neither Tencent Group nor Liu Group meant to hide it.

Therefore, after this news reached the outside world, the entire Internet was instantly boiling!

Countless industry elites were blown up by this important news, and they expressed their opinions to discuss what changes the merger of WeChat and Q-send will bring to the mobile Internet!

Countless silly netizens also came out to cheer, and finally there was no need to worry about it, so they used WeChat or Q letters!
Chapter completed!
