Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

Chapter 262 Burning Money for Development

At this time, Alibaba, Amazon, Taobao, Netflix video rental website, Pandora music website and other websites have not yet officially launched in the United States, but major investment companies are very close to each other.

Moreover, the valuation is also very high.

Starting from April 4st, executives of major websites have been mainly busy with financing matters.

However, e-commerce websites are different from portal websites. The former has great development potential.

Therefore, even for financing, Zhao Ye does not intend to sell too many shares.

……

Alibaba.com Inc.

Son Jung-yi of SoftBank looked at the competitors present and couldn't help but feel depressed and powerless.

There are too many competitors, and everyone wants to invest in Alibaba.com. SoftBank’s scale is far inferior to investment companies such as Goldman Sachs and Sequoia Capital.

Moreover, Alibaba’s valuation has been speculated to reach US$80 billion!

Son Zhengyi now has to withdraw from the competition and regretfully leaves the field.

"It's so crazy. SoftBank can only invest in those start-up companies~" Sun Zhengyi shook his head and sighed, and walked out of the door of the building with a lonely look.

“Is there any start-up company with more development potential than the Internet companies owned by Wujiang Group???”

"Does SoftBank still have a chance?"

Sun Zhengyi felt confused.

Zhao Ye stood in front of the office window and looked down at Sun Zhengyi and his entourage as they left. He couldn't help but sigh that things had changed and people had changed. Sun Zhengyi, who was famous in his previous life, might never be able to achieve the same achievements in his previous life.

In its previous life, SoftBank rose rapidly because of its investment in companies such as Yahoo and Alibaba.

In this life, SoftBank has no investment opportunities at all, and the companies that can cooperate with Wujiang Group are all big bosses.

"Times make heroes. Now, there is a high probability that Da Ma, Robin Li and others will disappear from the public. However, Robin Li is a skilled man and may stand out..." Zhao Ye lamented.

"Alas, if God had not given birth to me, Zhao Ye, eternity would be like a long night. How lonely it would be to be invincible!"

……

……

Half a month later, Alibaba, Amazon, Taobao, Netflix and other websites were launched in the United States.

The American people have long heard of these websites, so the websites received a large number of users as soon as they were launched.

Of course, local websites in the United States are also very powerful. After all, they have developed for so long and have many loyal users.

Moreover, many websites in the United States have now begun to join forces to help each other and cooperate with each other to jointly resist the attacks of major websites owned by Wujiang Group.

In order to compete for the market, they have launched an e-commerce war, spending money like crazy on advertising, or subsidizing consumers, etc.

American local websites are also supported by a large number of investors, so these websites are actually very wealthy.

The battle of burning money, the battle of hesitating to add firewood, endless, it depends on who can't persevere in the end.

However, this was not Zhao Ye's original intention.

Even if Wujiang Group has money, it will not participate in such a bottomless pit-like money-burning war.

Amazon.com began building its own warehousing and logistics in the United States.

Taobao vigorously promotes free store opening for all and promotes e-commerce for all.

Alibaba has used the resources and connections of Wujiang Group to build a large-scale e-commerce between multinational companies!

With the support of Internet Explorer and navigation websites, websites such as Alibaba, Amazon, Taobao, Netflix, and Pandora will not have no traffic, but whether they can ultimately defeat their competitors and become the number one in the industry depends on subsequent development.

It didn’t take long for the Alibaba website to take the lead in completing the first round of financing, selling 20% ​​of its shares and obtaining US$20 billion in funding. Alibaba’s post-investment valuation was as high as US$100 billion!

Soon after, other websites also received investment.

For example, Amazon raised US$30 billion and Taobao raised US$25 billion...

Although the amount of financing for each website is very high, major investment companies are still rushing to participate in the investment, because these websites have already established a foothold in markets outside the United States and have huge commercial value.

Now after entering the US market, it has also performed well. It has been unstoppable along the way and the number of users has increased sharply.

Zhao Ye is very satisfied with the development speed of major websites and allows them to develop freely for the time being.

It just requires that after major websites raise funds, most of the funds should be used to develop the Chinese market, so that major websites can advertise on TV stations or sponsor major variety shows; e-commerce websites have launched a large number of subsidies. Stimulate Chinese users to shop online; invest in network infrastructure to improve user online experience...

Zhao Ye hopes that through this method of burning money, China's Internet will develop rapidly.

Anyway, the money belongs to foreign investment companies, so it doesn’t hurt at all to spend it.

If all the money is burned, then start a second round of financing, or go public through an IPO to continue to steal foreigners' money.

Starting from May, the development of the domestic Internet has entered the fast lane.

The Internet began to spread across the country, more and more consumers began to shop online, the e-commerce economy became increasingly prosperous, and the entire industry chain developed.

Tens of thousands of domestic companies have begun to engage in foreign trade through the Alibaba website, and their scale is growing day by day.

In order to expand its popularity, Alibaba spends heavily on advertising on TV stations.

"Alibaba website makes it easy to do business anywhere in the world!"

“Companies around the world are on Alibaba, seize opportunities and realize their dreams!”

"In the past, there was no way to do foreign trade business; now, to do foreign trade business, all you need to do is log in to Alibaba!"

"Create unlimited possibilities and create a better life!"

In the previous life, Alibaba's internationalization failed relatively, but in this life, Alibaba almost monopolizes the global B2B market and has great influence.

Chinese companies can really cooperate with companies from all over the world on the Alibaba website.

Chinese products have low production cost, high quality and low price, which is exactly what other countries need.

Alibaba's transaction volume is rising steadily, like a rocket.

China's major ports have become extremely prosperous, and cargo ships are leaving the ports one after another. In June, China's export trade soared by 6%, shocking both at home and abroad!

Foreign economists are shocked. The growth of China's export trade is so amazing.

At this rate of development, China's economy will soon approach that of the United States!

Recently, foreign BBS documentary host Marcus Charlie lamented directly on the show with great excitement: "China, an ancient civilized country, is rising at an incredible speed!!! Oh, no, to be precise, it should be Call it a renaissance! For thousands of years, China has been the most powerful country in the world, and its decline only lasted more than a hundred years! When the Chinese lion wakes up, the whole world will tremble! Now, This lion is awake!!!!”

China in this life has indeed become very powerful during this period. Not only did its GDP last year reach about 5.8 trillion US dollars, but it is also ahead of the United States in many scientific and technological fields.

U.S. technology was cut off by the Wujiang Group, and its development speed is far slower than in previous generations. Last year's GDP was only about 6.6 trillion U.S. dollars.

The GDP gap between China and the United States has become smaller and smaller.

It is hard to believe that in this life, the United States has lost to China in the fields of computers, the Internet, wireless communications and networks, and even semiconductors.

In other areas, the United States is also rapidly catching up with China.

As one goes, the other goes, and the United States probably still far surpasses China in terms of military strength. Economically, China will catch up in less than a year or two.

In fact, Japan's GDP in the previous life reached 1995 trillion US dollars in 5.55, and the United States was only more than 7 trillion US dollars. The gap between the two is not big. However, Japan's economic recession, and then GDP plummeted. By 2022, GDP It is only US$4.23 trillion, while the GDP of the United States is US$21 trillion, which is a huge gap.

But China is not Japan, and China still has huge potential for economic growth.

As long as China maintains its technological leadership, it will be easy for China to surpass the United States in GDP.

……

……

At present, the development speed of China's e-commerce is quite satisfactory to Zhao Ye.

If e-commerce spends money, miracles can happen!

However, the logistics industry has not kept up, and delivery speeds are slow, affecting user experience.

China is vigorously building expressways, and Wujiang Group has also invested heavily in expressways. Therefore, traffic conditions have been improved and become more and more convenient.

"Director Zhao, in order to cope with the rapid development of e-commerce, we plan to start the construction of modern intelligent warehousing and logistics centers across the country, and set up logistics outlets in every city and most towns, with a total investment of no less than 600 billion yuan!"

"The Tiangong Mercedes-Benz factory was completed some time ago and has now entered the mass production stage. Our fleet wants to order 5600 Mercedes-Benz trucks. Among them, 5000 Mercedes-Benz light trucks and 600 Mercedes-Benz heavy trucks."

"Currently, we have more than 5600 trainees in the Lalamove driver training bases we have set up across the country. Once the Mercedes-Benz trucks are produced, they will be able to start working immediately. There are 663 cities in China and 41636 township administrative units. We There is still a shortage of manpower, and the driver training base is still recruiting students..."

"In addition, our Lalamove company also plans to develop air cargo, and we hope that Galaxy Technology Company can design and produce transport aircraft!"

Hou Tianyu, CEO of Lalamove, was reporting to Zhao Ye at this time.
