"50.27 billion! Feigou Jingdong creates another miracle on Double Eleven!"
“Feigou, Jingdong, and Meituan have placed a total of 180 million orders. This year’s Double Eleven transaction volume reached 61.6 billion yuan. This achievement shocked the world. China’s e-commerce industry ranks first in the world and has become the global e-commerce industry. A leader in business.”
"The three-year period has arrived! Meituan's shopping festival sales once again exceeded the total of Ali's products with 11.33 billion, ranking second!"
"China's No. 2 e-commerce company may change hands! Ali Baba lost to Meituan for the second time after the "June 19" incident. The stock price has fallen into a downturn since the opening and will fall below HK$5 per share in the near future."
"The Internet revealed that Yipay has applied for the first batch of third-party payment licenses, and the 'privatization' incident has once again attracted attention."
"..."
Lu Yun gritted his teeth as he watched the portal full of news about Double Eleven. Those from Feigou, Jingdong, and Meituan were all complimentary, while those from Ali were all negative.
"how so?"
He slumped in his chair. The blow from Meituan was a hundred times or a thousand times stronger than that of Feigou, which had always been far ahead. Is it possible that he couldn't even be the second best in a thousand years?
"Jack, don't take it too seriously."
Cai Chongxin felt mixed and sighed.
"We lost again. We lost to Meituan again. It's okay to lose to Feigou. How could we lose to Meituan again? Chongxin, is this true?" Lu Yun seemed to have been drained of all his strength. Godless.
"It doesn't matter if we lose. If we lose, we will only lose a few hundred million. Meituan only beat us on June 19 and Double Eleven. Looking at the annual sales, we are still ahead."
Cai Chongxin comforted, "No matter how well Meituan performs on Double Eleven, the third child will still be the third child, so there is no need to worry about it all the time."
"Is that true?"
"Jack, what happened to you today? You are completely different from before. Where is your confidence and your unwillingness to admit defeat? Don't be discouraged because of Meituan, you have to cheer up!"
"Cheer up?"
"Yeah, don't forget that the board meeting is coming soon!"
"well."
Lu Yun held his head in his hands, his eyes empty, "With the current results, how can I put it on the board of directors? Originally, when the June 19th failure was last time, Yahoo and SoftBank challenged me on the board of directors, forcing me to kill Ma Su in tears and fire Wei Zhe. This time on Double Eleven, we don’t know how Yahoo and SoftBank are going to make things difficult for us.”
"Speaking of this, what I'm most afraid of is that Yahoo will reveal the privatization of Yipay. You know, the first batch of names will be announced soon. Even if Yahoo and SoftBank don't know, someone will definitely let them know. It will be troublesome then.”
Cai Chongxin poured two glasses of water for the two of them.
"Last time, I wanted to mention it to the board of directors after the big victory on June 19. This time, I also wanted to return to second place on Double Eleven, get good results, put the Yipay issue on the map, and let people Yahoo and SoftBank agreed, I didn’t expect it.”
Lu Yun punched the table twice in grief.
"It's completely out of the question now."
Cai Chongxin didn't know whether to be happy or helpless: "Jack, I'm not telling you, you are too hasty to privatize Yipay. In fact, privatization is not impossible. As long as the price is negotiated with SoftBank, even if it is put on the board of directors, We are also in the majority. You don’t need to use this kind of black-box operation at all. It is a taboo in the capital market. Fortunately, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange did not strictly investigate..."
"It's too late to say this now, Chongxin, Yipay is not just for me, you have a share, and everyone has a share. I am not seeking personal gain for myself, I am doing it for Ali Baba. We think about the whole team!”
Lu Yun was upset and interrupted.
"I just thought of this, so you cut it off first, and I didn't say anything." Cai Chongxin complained: "Unfortunately, you have gone too far. You are reluctant to spend money, and at the same time you want to monopolize the equity. There is no such good thing in the world. , now we are completely passive, Yahoo and SoftBank will definitely launch an attack on the board of directors, and even go to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and the Securities and Exchange Commission of the United States. Your plan to have Ali listed on the US stock market in the next two years will probably be scrapped."
"It's all this fucking bastard's fault, Lu Fei! You have Fei buying Jingdong, why the hell are you doing Meituan!"
Lu Yun gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"Now it's time to think carefully about how to deal with this board meeting." Cai Chongxin looked at him, his eyes flickering.
"The CEO will be re-elected at the meeting. We must not let Yahoo and SoftBank interfere with Ali's management. The list of candidates for this election will still be our own people."
Lu Yun had a serious face.
"The CEO is a problem, so what about Yipay going private? Last time, you and Wei Zhe swore to the media and the board of directors that there was no such thing. This time, we have to give an explanation to Yahoo and SoftBank. Wei Zhe has resigned now, what are you going to do? Explain?"
Cai Chongxin cast a meaningful look, "I'm afraid the one who has to bear the responsibility this time is either you or me."
"I will take full responsibility for it! If they have the ability, just remove me as the chairman of the board of directors!"
Lu Yun got angry and started to slap the case.
"Jack, don't be angry, let's discuss it."
Cai Chongxin's tone was strange.
Two days later, the announcement of the list of third-party payment licenses appeared on the official website, and Yipay was clearly on the list. However, this kind of thing did not attract much attention. Just like the announcement of the promotion of civil servants, it was just a formality, but just treat it like this. Calm and calm——
Articles criticizing the privatization of Yipay have appeared on portal financial channels such as Penguin, Netease, and New Wolf.
"Lu Yun lied! The privatization of Yipay was not what Ali Daddy said. They really did it!"
"In order to comply with the central bank's policy that companies paying for licenses must be 100% domestically owned, Ali Baba Group has changed from foreign-owned holding to 100% domestically owned through equity transfer, and terminated the agreement control with the parent company, according to The parties involved in Yahoo China expressed that they were deeply shocked that the privatization of Yipay was not approved by the board of directors and they are stepping up their investigation."
"Shocking! Lu Yun privately transferred the shares of Yipay in two batches without the consent of Ali Baba's board of directors, seriously infringing the interests of Yahoo and SoftBank. Relevant industry insiders said that this move was simply audacious! The negative impact is immeasurable! "
"The 'Yipay incident' caused Luyun to suffer a crisis of integrity, and the exposure of the hidden rules of 'Agreement Holdings' left the industry at a loss."
In an instant, the privatization of Yipay became a hot search topic!
As expected, the Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission was once again provoked!
On the eve of Ali's board meeting, when the Hong Kong stock market was not closed, according to the regulations of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, listed companies were not allowed to release announcements to clarify during the trading period, so Ali watched the stock plummet all the way, and it was bitter. Not out.
At the same time, Bloomberg, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and other newspapers seemed to have made an appointment and reprinted it at an unimaginable speed. "Easy Pay Privatization" made the headlines of almost all major international media, and the entire Wall Street was excited about it.
This Jack Deer is so bold!
Can you do this kind of thing?
It seems to have nothing to do with them, but who they are, the Wolf of Wall Street, immediately found an opportunity to take advantage of it, turning Ali Daba's crisis of trust into a crisis of integrity for the entire Chinese concept stocks.
Penguin, Baidu, NetArt, New Wolf, Shanda...
Almost all Chinese concept stocks listed in the United States plummeted.
Just because Lu Yun made the entire Chinese concept stock companies and even Chinese enterprises collectively take the blame for his own selfish interests, which completely angered the entire business community, and everyone stood up and denounced it.
The one who fired the first shot was naturally Liu Edong.
When Yangma was interviewed for the Double Eleven special report, she was no longer mincing words. She publicly accused Lu Yun of transferring Yipay privately, which was not considered stealing at all, but simply robbing. It violated the principles of the contract, discredited the entire Huaxia Company, and was a black sheep.
"I really didn't expect Lu Yun to be such a person, and I didn't expect Ahli Baba to be such a company. This is a stain that will never be erased in my life!"
Ding Sanshi followed closely and complained angrily on Weibo.
"The payment privatization incident not only greatly damaged the goodwill of Huaxia Company, but also caused distrust in the international capital market towards Huaxia Enterprises. Robbers have seized other people's property and destroyed our international credit, but we are expected to pay the bill?"
Wang Xing was the third one to fire, and with full firepower, he posted seven or eight Weibo posts in a row, each one sending out Lu Yun.
In the comment area below, many business tycoons also participated, not only those who were closely related to Mr. Lu, but also those who had no enmity with Lu Yun in the past. This time they hated Lu Yun to death, which gave Wall Street a chance to do something. Opportunities for air concept stocks.
rnmd, Luyun!
qtmd, Ahri!
Even those who had a good relationship with Lu Yun in the past have begun to draw a clear line. Members of the Taishan Society must either become ostriches or simply cut off their robes, Lu Yun? Who? do not know! have no idea!
Lu Yun and Ah Li became the target of public criticism, with everyone shouting that they should be beaten.
Even though he was at the forefront of the storm, even though he had been criticized verbally and verbally, Lu Yun was worthy of being the king of strong-tongued words, and he still said:
"Yipay should only belong to China! Because Yipay belongs to the Chinese people! It is impossible to allow foreign capital to occupy even one share!"
"If you want to judge me, it would be that Ahli and I love China so much that I had to make this decision!"
"..."
"Lu Yun, Lu Yun, why do you have to do this to yourself..."
Lu Yun's stubborn words and desperate struggle made Lu Fei shake his head and sigh. He is now making various speeches and statements, which not only fail to calm public opinion, but add fuel to the fire. After all, the privatization of Yipay has completely destroyed Lu Yun's credibility. fell to a negative number.
Who knows whether what he said is true or false.
"But it's disgusting and shameless, and they're playing the national sentiment card." Liu Haodong smiled coldly, "If there were no Penguin Pay and Caifubao, and only Yipay, he might have been able to get through it."
"Haha, yes, but without what-if, his reputation is completely ruined now." Lu Fei said with a pity, "Even if he is kicked out of the board of directors, although he is miserable, he will not be much worse. No matter how bad he is, he will still have a good fortune." Billionaire."
"Given his personality, being kicked out of Ahri Baba like this would be even more uncomfortable than killing him."
Liu Edong smiled.
"This is called killing, killing one's heart!"
Lu Fei crossed his legs and shook them again and again.
"I thought about it for three days and three nights, but I still haven't figured it out. Is it worth it for Lu Yun to do this for an easy payment?"
Liu Edong smacked his lips. With Mr. Lu's encouragement, if the current situation continues, Lu Yun will already have his own business reputation and reputation involved.
If you are kicked out of Ali's board of directors again, whether you are running Yipay or want to start a second business in the future, it may be difficult to find partners and financing institutions unless the business is successful.
It can be said that Luyun's future is dark.
"Do you think I can give him this chance?"
Lu Fei had a smirk on his lips.
Liu Edong said with a smile: "He will probably use Yipay as a new starting point, but he is too naive. Yipay is completely independent of Ali. If Cai Chongxin really keeps his promise, Ali will ban Yipay on all platforms. If only Penguin Pay and Caifubao are accepted, then all Lu Yun's efforts will be in vain. If Yi Pay wants to become bigger and stronger, it can only be a dream."
"This means that the agency was too clever in its calculations, and it cost Qing Qing's life." Lu Fei shook his head and laughed, "Next, it depends on how Cai Chongxin and Yahoo perform the next drama."
"The board of directors will be held soon. If nothing unexpected happens, the CEO will definitely be Sun Tongyu. There will be something good to watch then."
Liu Edong laughed out loud. When King Sun Tongyu returns, he will inevitably fight with Lu Yun on behalf of the interests of Yahoo and SoftBank.
But the fly in the ointment is that Cai Chongxin does not intend to betray Lu Yun in this board meeting, and still votes with Lu Yun.
"Don't be anxious, good steel is used on the cutting edge. Cai Chongxin's value is not in the board of directors." Lu Fei waved his hand, "According to Cai Chongxin, Yahoo and SoftBank are now gathering other shareholders to prepare to convene an extraordinary shareholders' meeting to use the 'Easy Pay privatization' By re-electing the chairman, supervisors and directors, Lu Yun can be removed from the position of chairman of the board of directors."
"Mr. Lu, when?"
Liu Edong couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"It's around December, so during the Christmas shopping period, we also want to give him a Christmas gift, just as his resignation gift."
Lu Fei stood up.
"Okay, Mr. Lu."
Liu Edong smiled even brighter, like a chrysanthemum.
"Are the media here?"
Lu Fei raised his hand and looked at his watch.
"We're here, they're all downstairs."
Liu Edong smiled and said, "Shall we go down now?"
"Of course, let me light another fire for Lu Yun and Ah Li to add to the fun." After Lu Fei finished speaking, he took the elevator with Liu Edong and others and arrived at the entrance of Hailong Building. They surrounded him.
"Mr. Lu, what do you think of the Luyun and 'Epay privatization' incidents? Does it have any impact on the approval of third-party payment licenses? Can you tell us about it?"
"First of all, I am not the authority department. Whether I can approve or not depends on the leader's will. I have no right to interfere or know."
Lu Fei said seriously: "I can only say that Lu Yun divested its digital payment business Yipay without the approval of Ali Baba's board of directors. The impact of this incident is very bad and has a negative impact on the entire Chinese business community. The global reputation has caused lasting damage and is irreparable. I think Jack Ma has integrity issues and moral issues!"
"This is the first time I have seen such a shameless person do such a thing for his own selfish gain. I have never seen such a shameless person before!"
"I don't want to affect the plans of the relevant departments, but I suggest that the approval process for the third-party license of Easy Pay be suspended until the 'E-Pay privatization' crisis is over!" (End of Chapter)
