"Son of a bitch!"
At this moment, Li Guoqing was trembling with anger in front of the TV.
The focus interview had finished early, and the evening TV series had started on time, but he still couldn't come to his senses!
Just ten minutes ago, Li Mu officially became his direct competitor in front of the national audience.
Li Mu is only involved in the field of book sales. Li Guoqing knows that Taobao's acquisition of Joyo.com is progressing. In his opinion, he has been working hard in the field of book sales for several years, and he has a strong sense of users in this vertical field. Control and attraction, even if Taobao takes away excellence, it may not really be able to do anything to itself.
But he never expected that as soon as Li Mu came on board, he would use the CCTV platform to place a huge advertisement for himself.
Damn, you’re already number one in the class, and you’re still taking advantage of your good relationship with the class teacher to cheat? Have you ever played like this? Isn't that too kind
This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is what Li Mu said!
“Not making a penny in the next two to three years?”
Isn't this a clear plan to ruin yourself? You have a lot of food and pots and pans at home, but you only have one pot, and if you smash it, you will starve!
"In the next two to three years, huge amounts of money will be spent every year to subsidize book sales?"
This is so damning, even if you pay too much, you still have to blame yourself! What hatred, what resentment! Taobao, which you just established not long ago, is now a large and comprehensive industry leader. I live in a corner, focusing on the niche market of books, audio and video. I don’t make much in the first place, just some hard-earned money and gruel money. , I didn’t find anyone, I didn’t provoke anyone, so what do you mean by going all out
"In the next two to three years, Taobao Books will definitely be the lowest-priced platform for genuine books in the country, isn't it?"
This is even worse! Aren't you stealing my customers in front of the whole country? Furthermore, what does it mean to not have one? Does that mean that no matter how I lower the price, you must be cheaper than me and never give me a chance to equal you, right
This is simply pushing yourself towards death! is it necessary? ! is it necessary? !
The anger was hard to calm down for a long time, but Li Guoqing also knew very well that Li Mu's Taobao was much better than his own platform in all aspects. What was even more cruel was that Makino Technology and YY, the magic tool, once Li Mu integrated various resources, they would be with him. If you engage in a price war, you will definitely be unable to resist.
After the furious Li Guoqing came to his senses, he immediately called Lei Jun. Although the two had always been competitors, they were also old acquaintances. What's more, he knew that Joyo.com had been sold to Makino Technology. In other words, Lei Jun Jun has nothing to do with Joyo now, so the two of them no longer have a relationship as competitors.
Lei Jun was very surprised when he received the call from Li Guoqing. Unexpectedly, the elder brother almost yelled out in his first words: "Mr. Lei, what is the situation on Taobao? What is the situation on Joyo.com? How did you sell the company to Li Mu? Is he such a bird?"
Lei Jun coughed awkwardly: "Mr. Li, what exactly do you want to ask?"
Li Guoqing was confused and blurted out: "I don't know what I want to ask..." After thinking for a long time with a frown, Li Guoqing slapped his forehead and said: "Oh, by the way, I remembered, I just wanted to ask you, you said, Isn’t this guy Li Mu a bastard?”
Lei Jun chuckled and said, "Mr. Li, this is a bit harsh, isn't it? What grudge do you have against him?"
"The hatred is gone!" Li Guoqing said angrily: "Have you seen the news network and focus interviews? What kind of thing is this guy doing? Isn't it obvious that he is here for me? You To be fair, isn’t his behavior too much of a bastard?”
Mr. Lei sneered and said, "Really? I... I didn't realize it."
Li Guoqing became even more anxious: "Lao Lei, we have some friendship, why don't you tell the truth? You have sold Joyo.com. From a fair perspective, can't you say something fair to make me feel comfortable? We used to be competitors, but now there is no competition anymore, we are still good buddies!"
Mr. Lei said awkwardly: "Well, Lao Li, to be honest with you, we will still have a competitive relationship in the future..."
Li Guoqing said: "Why compete? Why don't you just make your own software and games?"
Mr. Lei smacked his lips and said, "That's right. As for me... I will join Taobao tomorrow and I will be Taobao's COO..."
"What the hell? You said it again and I didn't hear it clearly..."
Mr. Lei said word for word: "I will go to Taobao to join Taobao tomorrow. From tomorrow on, I will serve as the COO of Taobao..."
"F*ck!" The person on the phone yelled, and then there was a disconnection sound.
Mr. Lei looked at his disconnected mobile phone and smiled helplessly, thinking that Li Mu was about to destroy Dangdang. He would take office tomorrow. Could it be that the first project he would take on was to help Li Mu destroy Dangdang together
…
Throughout the night, Li Guoqing was in an extremely low mood, as if he were mourning for his heir.
Contrary to him, various websites, forums, and local media have exploded!
Li Mu made a huge boast in front of the people of the country tonight. He will rely on his own efforts to create two companies that rank among the top ten Internet companies in the world within five years, and one of them will enter the top five. This pretense is so big that many people can’t believe it.
All the website editors sat back in front of the computer to write articles, and the newspaper editors were also working hard to revise the original headlines, taking down the original headlines and replacing them with Li Mu's. The TV media also reported Li Mu's remarks on the evening news. In short, Li Mu This time it successfully attracted great attention from all over the country.
Li Mu's ambition, in the eyes of the media, experts, netizens and ordinary people, is equivalent to having the Chinese men's football team reach the semi-finals of the World Cup in 2006 or 2010.
Maybe the possibility of the men's football team reaching the semi-finals of the World Cup is much greater than the possibility of Li Mu realizing his ambition. After all, the Chinese men's football team is ranked 64th in the world this year, and Li Mu's most valuable company, Makino Technology, is ranked 64th on the global Internet. In the company, I can’t even be ranked among the top 100.
By early the next morning, all kinds of opinions were overwhelming across the country.
The attitude of most mainstream media is relatively neutral. They only report on this matter but do not make subjective evaluations. But those experts are different. They are thinking about how to get the limelight all day long, but it is always difficult to find opportunities. In addition, I was used to seeing Li Mu being in the limelight in front of the people, and I had long been dissatisfied with Li Mu. I had no hatred or resentment, but seeing that he was famous, I wanted to see him get stepped on for no reason, and even wanted to step on him a few times.
But in the past, Li Mu pretended to be in the limelight, and he pretended to be impeccable every time. Even if those idle experts didn't like him, they couldn't find any way to attack him. In addition, Li Mu was in the limelight, with rave reviews from all over the country, and they stepped on him. The risk was too great, but this time it was different. Li Mu was pretending too hard this time. Experts from all walks of life had countless ways to slap him in the face!
Soon, on various websites, forums, and even local newspapers, there was an endless stream of comments from various experts slapping Li Mu in the face. Some of them criticized Sang and Huai:
"Contributing to society doesn't mean you can speak arrogantly!"
“Who is trying to inflate the Internet bubble again?!”
“Overnight, all the cattle raised by the Internet giants went to heaven.”…
In addition to these people who criticize mulberry trees and mulberry trees, there are also people who name names and surnames:
"Makino Technology and Taobao will never become the top ten Internet companies in the world!"
"Three years, five years? There may not be any success in ten years!"
"Once overseas giants enter China, Makino Technology and Taobao will be destroyed!"
"Li Mu: Over-expanded Internet Teenagers."…
Among them are experts in the computer field, experts in the Internet field, and experts in the field of finance and international trade. The most ridiculous thing is that even military experts have "reasonably and well-founded" analysis from the perspective of the US government's world hegemony. There are many insider reasons why the U.S. government cannot let Li Mu become bigger and stronger.
What is gratifying is that the majority of netizens are not as bitter as experts and scholars, and they are not as bad-mouthed about Li Mu, Makino Technology, and the future of Taobao. Most of them particularly admire Li Mu's domineering remarks last night. In their opinion, , China Internet just lacks a person like Li Mu who dares to think, speak and do. Although what Li Mu said last night is indeed difficult to realize, at least Li Mu is already the number one person in China Internet industry. If he doesn’t even have the chance to let China Internet companies have leapt to the top of the world, so among China’s more than one billion people, who else can do it
Therefore, in this case, a lot of the confidence that everyone has in Li Mu is confidence in the entire China and the entire Chinese Internet industry, but right now Li Mu is the most worthy of entrustment.
…
Li Mu went out to Taobao early the next morning to prepare for the official appointment of Leader Lei. He himself was not affected by the negative and offensive comments from the outside world.
Li Mu has a thousand ways to slap them in the face for those who question him, but slaps in the face also require actual actions. Therefore, in Li Mu’s view, the first slap in the face was Makino Technology’s Series C financing .
After last night's publicity, the valuation of Makino Technology will also be recalculated. This time, the valuation of Makino Technology will definitely rise to a sky-high price that will shock the country.
In the car, he called Ding Zhenglin specifically and told him: "Starting today, we will send letters to all venture capital institutions interested in investing in Makino Technology. Makino Technology's Series C financing has been restarted, and everyone is welcome to re-offer."
Last night's interview not only let the whole industry know that "Internet into the home" is promoted by Li Mu, but also indirectly demonstrated the current government relationship between Li Mu and his companies, which is extremely important! Because the indicators for measuring the market value of a company are far more than assets, profits, development space and market share, but also resources! Resources are intangible assets. Although they are intangible, they must not be ignored!
Not to mention anything else, through the "Internet into Homes" and the promotion of CCTV, all venture capital institutions have seen the government's strong support for Li Mu. This can guarantee that Makino Technology will have the largest policy tilt in the domestic Internet market in the future. , the profit margin contained in this is simply immeasurable!
If the company's assets, profits, development space, market share and other indicators are added, then government relations are multiplied on the sum of the previous additions. If the sum of assets, profits, development space, and market share is 100 , then for normal and ordinary enterprises, the coefficient of government relations defaults to 1, and the market value is equal to 100 times 1, which is 100.
However, for someone with such solid government relations as Li Mu, the coefficient should be at least 1.5, if not 2, right? I don’t dare to compare with central and state-owned enterprises, but in the Internet industry, Li Mu’s government relations are basically unparalleled.
Venture capital institutions are best at actuarial calculations and estimation. They will definitely be aware of this major coefficient change, and naturally know that at this time, re-quoting is absolutely inevitable!
