Chapter 694 Wedding Countdown
"Boss Ma, the money is gone."
“So soon?”
The confrontation among the three markets has resulted in a huge consumption of cash flow for the ride-hailing industry.
The funds of Bibi and Kuaidi were burned out in an instant, and both entered a relatively weak stage.
Therefore, under the instruction of Mr. Ma, the remaining 30 million was quickly deposited into the account, and Kuaidi also received an injection of more than 50 million.
Bumblebee developed rapidly after changing its route, and it seemed to have inherited Jiang Qin's true teachings. A venture capital institution also helped it to raise a considerable amount of financing.
This is the gradual transformation of market advantage into capital advantage.
To put it simply, the bigger the market, the more optimistic the capital is. The most important thing is that the capital is most optimistic about the endorsement of Jiang Qin, the iron-blooded tyrant.
Based on this situation, the market seems to be continuing to confront.
During the war of thousands of groups, Lashou, Suixintuan, Nuomi and the later Pintuan confronted each other in Shanghai for more than a year. Even when Pintuan was defending its position, many opponents kept coming back.
During the food delivery war, Baidu, Pintuan and Ele.me confronted each other for half a year.
Everyone learned their lesson later and realized that a prolonged confrontation would not have any good results, but when it was their turn, no one was willing to give up first.
Some experts predict that this confrontation is likely to continue until the beginning of next year.
"Beep has a big advantage right now, but Kuaibi is not at all inferior. He exerted a lot of force in the later stages, and it seems that he had been holding back in the early stages."
"The most frightening thing is that after meeting Jiang Qin, Bumblebee's team seemed to have gotten smarter. They fought guerrilla warfare very skillfully, just like a blue butterfly swimming in the clouds."
"We all know that the triangle is the most stable. It will be impossible to end this three-way situation in a short period of time."
In the business administration department of Linchuan University, an old professor made an analysis of the current situation, which made the students think deeply.
However, the development of the industry will obviously not move forward according to everyone's ideas.
It is true that the three-legged tripod is the most stable confrontation posture, but once there is an external invasion, the whole situation will fall into chaos in an instant.
At this moment, Baidu came quietly.
Sunai once asked Jiang Qin when they were chatting in the company, Baidu wants to get involved in every trend, even though it doesn't achieve much, but it seems that it doesn't want to miss anything, so why didn't he get involved this time?
Jiang Qin did not answer at that time, but now, Baidu has given the answer itself.
Uber, a technology company founded in Silicon Valley and the largest taxi-hailing platform in the entire international market, announced its entry into the domestic market. Baidu entered as a shareholder and became their largest investor in the domestic market.
That’s right, Baidu did not choose the previous path to develop local platforms such as Nuomi Group Buying and Baidu Takeout.
This time, he changed his usual practice and introduced an alien species with sharp fangs.
Uber is not the first foreign Internet company to target the Chinese market. Yahoo in the information portal era, Google in the browser era, Amazon in the e-commerce era, Groupon in the group buying era, and Waimaicha in the food delivery era have all ventured into this huge market.
But this time, Uber's approach to the invasion is particularly different.
Before entering the domestic market, the previous few Internet companies did not pay attention to the degree of internal competition in the domestic business ecosystem and had a certain degree of contempt for the competitive atmosphere in the domestic market.
They have always come in with a condescending attitude, thinking that domestic consumers are barbarians who have never seen good things.
This is also the main reason why the previous companies exited the market in disgrace.
On the other hand, these alien species have mature business models and fixed architectural systems, and they basically copy and paste them when entering the domestic market.
Their leaders are often long-time overseas veterans, elites, or heads of Asia regions, etc., and have a shallow understanding of the domestic market.
Just like, a certain father-in-law, Lao Deng.
But this time, all the senior executives selected by Uber in the domestic market were recruited locally. Except for the top executives, no one was parachuted in from abroad.
The most terrifying thing is that he even incorporated the legacy of other hot wars such as the group buying war and the takeaway war.
That’s right, Uber wants to build a team that knows the domestic market best.
We are back, all back!
After localization, Uber quickly launched its own app, Uber, and completed the localization at lightning speed. Then, it brought huge amounts of international capital and prepared to immediately enter the two cities of Kyoto and Shanghai.
After the news came out, the entire taxi market was instantly in turmoil.
Because many people know that Uber is really a completely different foreign company.
Uber was founded in San Francisco in 2010. It took only one year for it to sweep across North America, and the following year it quickly entered overseas markets. It currently has four major overseas markets in Europe, Africa, South America and Southeast Asia, with a valuation of US$42 billion.
In other words, what this company excels at is fast battles.
"The Chinese market is currently the largest market in the world, with the largest business ecosystem and system, which is completely different from the markets of other countries."
"No matter the size or scale, local companies growing up in China seem to have the ability to challenge international Internet companies. We must acknowledge this."
"The first step for Uber to enter the domestic market is to localize the team, which shows that we respect our competitors and also respect this market with huge potential."
Feng Nan snuggled in Jiang Qin's arms, spoke softly, and translated a statement about Uber's entry into the domestic market.
This incident has not yet made the news, and the video was circulated within the business community.
The spokesman was a middle-aged American man named Travis Kalanick, the founder of Uber and one of the new CEOs in Silicon Valley.
This declaration was not made in vain, because Travis himself is here and is currently in Kyoto, and the video was recorded during an interview at a hotel in Kyoto.
Jiang Qin touched the rich woman's feet and silently exclaimed "awesome".
At this moment, Feng Nanshu was looking up at Jiang Qin with her watery eyes, and couldn't help but kiss him on the cheek.
"Did you drink milk today?"
"not yet."
Feng Nanshu curled up her snow-white and shiny feet, and found herself being picked up and put on a chair in the restaurant.
Then Jiang Qin walked to the dining table and started heating the milk.
Feng Nanshu turned her little face to look at his busy figure, suddenly spoke in a low voice, secretly calling him "husband" sweetly.
"Hmm? What did you just say?"
"No, nothing."
Feng Nanshu started to act stupid, looking around, and finally had his face pinched.
After the little rich woman finished drinking the milk, Jiang Qin stared at her for a long time: "Have you gained a little weight in the past two days?"
"Not fat." Feng Nanshu disagreed with him saying that he was fat.
"Not fat? But when I hugged you just now, you felt a little heavy."
Feng Nanshu narrowed his eyes: "That's because I have another one in my belly."
Jiang Qin also imitated her and became very serious and asked: "What else is in your belly?"
"There's a baby of yours."
"Goose, goose, goose."
Jiang Qin let out a dog laugh and felt extremely happy.
He would tease her with all kinds of tricks every day just to hear the words "there is a baby for you", as if he was a little addicted to it.
Feng Nanshu drank the milk in a daze, not knowing why he was so happy. She thought he disliked her for being fat, so she couldn't help but kicking him under the table, not with much force.
My mother and aunt have been very busy during this period, observing other people's weddings and discussing the wedding banquet process with the wedding planning company.
For them, organizing the wedding of their sons and daughters is probably the happiest thing in the world.
Jiang Zhenghong discussed the guest list, seating arrangements, and the titles of the guests with Feng Shihua when he got home from get off work every day. They considered it over and over again, and the project has been compiled from the first to the sixth edition.
At this time, the Good Friends Ceremony has entered the countdown stage.
In the evening, red clouds crossed the sky. Yuan Youqin and Jiang Zhenghong came back from Qin Jingqiu's place and handed the banquet list to Jiang Qin.
"Son, please confirm the list again. After that, your father and I will go back to Linchuan to write the notice."
"Oh, okay."
Jiang Qin reached out to take it, and saw that the man at home couldn't help but move forward, so he hid aside for a while: "I'm getting married, why are you joining in the fun?"
"I want to get married too!" Feng Nanshu couldn't help but kick him.
"Really? What a coincidence? Your groom must be very handsome, just like..."
Jiang Qin raised the corner of his mouth: "Just like my bride is very beautiful."
Feng Nanshu was about to make a scene when she heard the first half of the sentence, but she pouted her face instantly after hearing the last sentence, as if to say, "If you say it again, I'll be shy in front of you."
Yuan Youqin couldn't help laughing when looking at the two of them, thinking that her son had a really mean mouth. No wonder Nan Shu didn't call him husband, he just felt itchy if he didn't provoke her.
However, liking someone probably means that you want to tease her all the time, and as you tease her, you can't help but show your true feelings.
After checking the guest list written by his father and uncle, Jiang Qin ran upstairs and brought back another list. He stacked the two lists together and handed them to Jiang Zhenghong.
His list was compiled by Wei Lanlan and Wen Jinrui. It was a thick list of business partners and political dignitaries who were to be formally invited at the company level.
Jiang Zhenghong looked at the list and couldn't help but exclaimed.
According to Jeju tradition, not just anyone can write a wedding invitation.
The Jiang family used to be considered a wealthy family, and some of them were landlords, but they quickly fell into decline over the next few generations.
Therefore, the writing of invitations must be done by the clan leader, that is, someone who is older in seniority.
But this list...
My goodness, our family leader must be so tired that he will cry if he wants to finish writing all this, right?
At this time, several relatives far away in Jeju couldn't help but shiver, wondering if this winter would be colder than usual. Why did they feel their scalps tingling even though the winter hasn't come yet?
(I don’t ask for monthly tickets, but I just want to give you a thumbs up...or2)
