Sprinkle coins every day

The slow broadcast was blocked, which can actually be regarded as a turning point in the history of China's Internet development.

It means that after nearly 20 years of brutal growth, the attitude of relevant departments towards the Internet industry is undergoing a slight change, from complete laissez-faire before to now limited intervention in supervision.

purpose.

Of course, it is not to limit the development of the Internet industry, on the contrary, but to eliminate some of the disadvantages derived from the Internet industry through timely intervention and supervision.

Play a role in rectifying the source.

Doing so, in the short term, may dampen the enthusiasm of some Internet industries, but in the long run, it is conducive to the sustainable development of the Internet industry.

Any barbaric growth, if left unattended, will inevitably hide dirt.

The official signal is actually very clear.

But it is a pity that the original time and space, whether it is the old giants such as Ari, Tengda, and Qiandu, or the emerging giants such as Meituan, Character Jump, Tick, and Pinxixi, do not seem to understand.

Or pretend not to understand.

In the next few years, it was still crazy introversion, believing in the barbaric style of "traffic is king, capital is king, and market is king", lacking the most basic sense of awe.

In the end, being hit by the board, or falling into a growth bottleneck, can only be said to be to blame.

Can't blame others! ! !
And in this life, Tengda, Ari and others obviously still didn't understand.

On April 4, the second day after Slow Broadcasting was seized, Didi and Kuaidi held a joint press conference, announcing that the two companies would undergo a strategic reorganization and merge into one company.

The new company after the merger will be named Tick.

It means that in this round of mergers, it is actually dominated by ticks.

On the surface, Kuaidi participated in the merger, but in essence it was merged by Tick Tock.

This is why, before the online car-hailing regulatory measures were implemented, the uncle was unwilling to promote the merger of Kuaidi and Didi, because after the merger, Ari would completely lose control of the new company.

In Ahri's business philosophy, without control, it means nothing.

That is to say, regardless of whether the new Tick can rise again and fight against the thriving Qingcheng Taxi, for Ari, in this online car-hailing war, he is already a complete loser.

Not only was Ah Li uneasy, after the news came out, there was also a lot of scolding on the Internet.

"Hey, another merge!!"

It’s hard for netizens not to think that at the end of last year, in order to fight against Qingcheng Group, the two giants, Ari and Tengda, led the merger of Ari Dianping and Nomi Dianping, and established the current Arnold Group.

Go back even further.

Nomi Dianping is the merger of Nomi.com and Dacong Dianping.

Now it's doing it again.

"Just integrate Tick Tock into the Arnold Group."

Some netizens "kindly" suggested.

Regarding this, both Ari and Tengda have actually thought about it, but in the end they gave up.

One thing is that the Arnold Group is already complicated enough, with many factions, and it has finally calmed down. If there is another commotion, it is uncertain what kind of moth will come out.

At that time, it will not be that one plus one is greater than two, but one plus one is less than two.

Furthermore, in the last round of the subsidy war, both Tick and Kuaidi have conducted multiple rounds of financing, and the funders behind them are not only Tengda and Ari.

There are many other investment institutions.

These investment institutions may not be happy to see Tick being absorbed by the Arnold Group.

So it ended without a problem.

"Fuck you, I thought that Tick and Kuaidi would merge, but I didn't expect it to be merged so soon." Most netizens were still very blunt, expressing their feelings directly.

"If you can't beat them, stick together, there's nothing wrong with it!!!"

"This is what it means to treat consumers like monkeys. In the past few months, Tick and Kuaidi were still beating ghosts and howling, but the next moment they became a family, and only us consumers were hurt."

"Baotuan will also be abolished. Isn't it good to take a taxi with a green orange?"

"That's right, Tick Tock and Kuaidi are not good birds, even if they merge, that's it."

Consumers are still very clear.

If there is no Qingcheng Taxi, with the previous market shares of Tick and Kuaidi, if they really want to merge, it will really dominate the world, and they can control consumers as they want.

Cutting leeks is not easy.

But what is the situation now?Two defeated underlings of Qingcheng, merging is useless!
Credibility has been shattered.

"It can only be said that this is the last dying struggle of capital. As consumers, we can no longer be stupid. We must resist such unscrupulous companies as Tick."

"That's right, we must resist!!!"

Only last week did local governments say they would strengthen the supervision of online car-hailing services. This week, Didi and Kuaidi announced that they would merge. The provocation is so strong that even ordinary consumers can’t stand it.

It is not surprising that this wave of tick-tock operations has caused public opinion to backlash.

.........

Binhai International Airport.

Zhang Shuo heard the news of the merger of Didi and Kuaidi while waiting for the plane. He was preparing to go to Shancheng to attend the foundation stone laying ceremony of the Shancheng aero-engine industrial base project.

Gu Mingzhang was also accompanying him.

After Nebula Group was incorporated, there was no doubt that Guan Zai was the natural candidate for the group president, and he would also continue to serve as the general manager of Nebula Technology.

Although Gu Mingzhang is in charge of the manufacturing business of the group, he is already serving as the president of Maili Group. It is impossible and he does not have the energy to continue to manage Xingyun Group.

Although Guan Zai's qualifications are a bit shallow, he is even skilled.

Furthermore, the newly established Nebula Group has two core businesses, one is Nebula Technology, which is engaged in commercial aerospace, and the other is the newly established aero-engine sector.

The responsibility of the Xingyun Group headquarters is more to play a central and coordinating role.

The overall structure is also light on the headquarters and heavy on the business sector.

Therefore, serving as the president of Nebula Group will not bring too much extra work to Guan Zai. Instead, he took advantage of this opportunity to realize the transition from M10 to M11.

Although the Nebula Group has just been established, it is also configured according to the standards of the group's subsidiaries.

"Chairman, after the merger of Didi and Kuaidi, will a new round of taxi subsidies be launched?" While waiting for the plane, Gu Mingzhang took the initiative to chat about this topic.

Although the Internet is not the business of Gu Mingzhang's supervisor, talking about it will help him get closer to the boss.

It is also a kind of workplace wisdom.

In contrast, Guan Zai lacks a little bit of this little wisdom, but it doesn't hurt too much.

"Probably not."

Giants like Tengda and Ari, including the investment institutions behind Tick, have a lot of money, but they are not stupid. They have been educated once, and they will never stumble in the same place again.

Facts have proved that the subsidy has an effect, but it is bound to not last long.

Also vulnerable to backlash.

"This kind of merger is actually not very meaningful. Unless it is said that the freshman Tick is fully on par with Qingcheng Taxi, and cooperates with taxis while turning online taxi drivers into full-time jobs."

This is obviously unrealistic.

One, compared with Qingcheng Taxi, in the first three months of the subsidy war, Didi and Kuaidi burned a huge sum of 4 billion, and the operating cost was N times that of Qingcheng Taxi.

It is doomed not to be able to pack lightly into the car like Qingcheng takes a taxi.

The most important thing is that these investment institutions behind ticking have always had a big appetite, and they will never be satisfied with making such slow money for profitable Weibo.

What they want is to promote Tick to go public, and then cut leeks in the stock market.

With Tick’s current market share, plus the existence of Qingcheng Taxi, it is doomed that Tick will not be able to tell a good story in the capital market.

Today's merger is just a helpless move when the situation has taken a turn for the worse.

future.

Whether the new tick will produce any new moths, only God knows.

.........

At eleven o'clock in the morning, Zhang Shuo and his party landed in the mountain city.

Unexpectedly, in the mountain city, an adjutant of the city government was arranged to greet him at the airport in person, which made Zhang Shuo feel embarrassed, "This is too grand, I am flattered."

In terms of rank, Mountain City sits on the same level as the Demon City, and its rank is higher than Binhai City.

"Mr. Zhang finally came to the mountain city, it should be."

Zhang Shuo was polite, and the people who received him were naturally in a happy mood. People in bridal sedan chairs carried people.

Not to mention, with the current scale of the Germination Group, this kind of reception standard is actually not too high for Zhang Shuo.

What if it were another company that could just open its mouth and make an investment of 20 billion?

Don't even think about it!

After leaving the airport, Zhang Shuo attended the reception lunch hosted by the chief official of Shancheng City.

The specifications have been raised a bit higher.

Of course, on such occasions, eating and other things are actually secondary. The main thing is to take the opportunity of meeting to talk about investment and cooperation.

Finalize some major cooperation directions.

As Gu Mingzhang said before, for many things, Zhang Shuo personally came forward to meet with the top management of the mountain city, and he could make a decision on the spot, which played a role that was beyond the reach of the people below.

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that the Nebula Group has teamed up with the Dream Fund to complete the acquisition of Mada Xiqi?" The chief officer of Shancheng took the initiative to open the topic.

Perhaps in the eyes of companies in the beautiful country or Europe, Madasic is just a tasteless one.

Not even tasteless.

But in China, in the mountain city, Ma Daxiqi is undoubtedly a treasure.

Therefore, it appears to be more important.

What's more, in the eyes of Shancheng, Ma Daxiqi is the root cause of the establishment of Shancheng Aero-Engine Industry Base, and the acquisition of Mada Xiqi is even directly related to the success or failure of the base.

Naturally, he paid extra attention.

Although, in the past few years, Germination has proven to the outside world more than once that every investment commitment made by Germination will not be a blank check.

The final amount of investment implemented is only a lot more.

Therefore, Shancheng basically does not have to worry about saying that the industrial base plan proposed by Nebula Aero Engine Co., Ltd. is a scam, or it is just a shrunken version of the investment project in the end.

But ask, still have to ask.

"Yes, the acquisition agreement has been signed. The next step is to actually implement the acquisition, and at the same time plan to transfer the personnel and equipment of Ma Daxiqi to the aero-engine industrial base in Shancheng as soon as possible."

Zhang Shuo is also outspoken.

The implication is that the speed of assimilating Madasic depends entirely on the speed of construction of the industrial base.

"Of course, even if the factor of Ma Daxiqi is excluded, the Germination Group's determination to enter the field of aero-engines is unwavering. When it comes to the specific implementation of the aero-engine industrial base project, the investment of 20 billion has been included in the Germination Group's annual investment. Budget, never break your word."

Zhang Shuo also understood Shancheng's concerns, so he gave the other party a reassurance.

"That's great!"

The chief officer of Shancheng really looked excited, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, the Shancheng government has included the aviation industry base project in this year's key promotion projects, and is currently setting up a special project docking team. One-on-one for the project. Project service, on call."

This is of course reciprocating.

"thanks, thanks!"

Zhang Shuo is also very excited. With such a commitment, he believes that in the next year, the advancement of the aero-engine industry base project will be given the green light all the way, saving a lot of trouble.

"As for Germination, if you have any other requirements, you can just ask them." The chief official of Shancheng was full of sincerity.

"It's not too much to ask."

Of course, Zhang Shuo was not ignorant, and said with a smile: "Just one thing, although the Shancheng Aero-Engine Industrial Base is led by Xingyun Group, we still hope that we can take this opportunity to introduce more supporting facilities from the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain. enterprises to form a large industrial cluster.”

The manufacturing industry has never been one or a few companies fighting alone.

A large number of supporting industries are involved.

This is why, as the only industrial power in the world with a full range of industries, Huaxia plays an irreplaceable strategic role in the global market.

Because industries all pay attention to matching, especially in the context of globalization.

Related supporting is even more important.

"It's natural."

The chief official of Shancheng was even more relieved, and said with a smile: "In fact, the city government is already working on formulating relevant policy support, offering preferential policies, and proactively attracting more enterprises to settle in."

"To be honest with Mr. Zhang, we are still in contact with COMAC recently."

"Oh? That would be great."

Zhang Shuo's eyes were also brightened. Of course, he knew the size and value of COMAC. If Nebula Group could reach a strategic cooperation with COMAC, it would undoubtedly be even more powerful.

Just before, China Commercial Aircraft Co., Ltd. did not express its position, and it was not easy for Germination to contact them proactively.

But right now.

It would be great if the mountain city could be a matchmaker in the middle.

This can be seen.

For this meeting, the mountain city has done some homework.

Next, the two sides also had a conversation about the site selection of the Xingyun Group headquarters, the entry of Mango Auto into the Shancheng market, and even the construction of a Mango Auto super factory in Shancheng.

Zhang Shuo gave the promise he could give on the spot.

For some things that cannot be given, such as the matter of the Mango Automobile Super Factory, Zhang Shuo naturally just passed it by, without agreeing or refusing.

You know, with the continuous hot sales of Mango M1, not only mountain cities, but cities like Binhai City and Jiangxia have also set their sights on the second Mango Auto Super Factory project early on.

At that time, it is estimated that there will be another battle between dragons and tigers.

From Zhang Shuo's standpoint, he actually prefers Binhai City because it has the advantage of a port after all.

Of course.

When the time is right in the future, Mango Group will definitely build a super factory in the inland, which will be dedicated to serving China's local market, and the port will basically not be involved.

But that was several years later.

.........

After having lunch with Shancheng, Zhang Shuo went back to the hotel where he was staying, and took the time to squat for an hour. In the afternoon, he visited the branches of Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment, Germination Group Shancheng Company and other non-stop.

He even found time to attend the donation ceremony of the Spring Sprout Fund to Shancheng University.

The itinerary is very full.

Wait until the next morning to attend the groundbreaking ceremony of the Aviation Industrial Park project.

Naturally, it was quite busy again.

In the afternoon of that day, Zhang Shuo stayed in the detention center to deal with the aftermath, and he set off to return to Binhai City first, ending his short two-day trip to the mountain city.

Relevant news naturally spread quickly on the Internet.

"Hey, budding, is this going to expand into a new business territory? It was okay to make mobile phones and cars before, but now it's starting to make aero engines?!!!"

"Who said that Germination will only be involved in the Internet industry and not engage in business?"

"It's not doing business, it's going to make a huge leap in the industrial field. Don't forget, before that, Mengya registered and established a company called Nebula Technology, which was involved in commercial spaceflight."

"Well, I would like to call it the Germination Universe, isn't it too much?"

"Uh, this is still a little exaggerated. Mengya's development of aero engines should also be related to commercial aerospace. Otherwise, it would not belong to the Nebula Group."

There are still many smart people on the Internet.

"That's awesome, Germinal is really arrogant, he smashed two hundred small targets at random."

"Arrogance is arrogance. The question is, where does Germina get its technical reserves? Aeroengines should be a very, very professional field, right? It's hard to imagine what a new company can do."

"Should have a backup player, Germination never fights uncertain battles."

Considering the international impact of the acquisition of Ma Daxiqi by the Nebula Group and the Dream Fund, up to now, it is still in a state of high secrecy.

Of course the internet doesn't know about this.

Although the netizens didn't know the inside story, but out of trust in Mengya, they still vaguely guessed that behind this, Mengya must have other actions.

The most reliable guess is to cooperate with some domestic companies to obtain technology authorization.

Just like the previous cooperation with Huaxia Aerospace.

"Looking at the continuous development of Germination in the manufacturing industry in the past two years, and comparing it with the so-called giants such as Ali and Tengda, and thinking about the previous taxi-hailing war, it is really hard to describe."

"you do not say!!!"

"Don't mention it, today's Big Three are no longer worthy of being compared with Germination. Even the Qinghe Group under Germination can beat any of the Big Three."

"It's right for Germination to make money!!!"

In the past one or two months, whether it's the counterattack of Qingcheng Taxi or Pingguo's being ridiculed by the crowd, it has been repeatedly proved that the current Germinal Group has a terrifying national support in China.

Absolutely biological! ! !

.........

On the other hand, Zhang Shuo was called by his second uncle to drink tea just after he returned to Binhai City.
