Rebirth starts from e-commerce

Chapter 496 Ring the Bell
The evening of July 9.

Luo Xiu and Guan Shiyu set off from Yangcheng and got on the flight to New York.

After more than ten hours of flying, when we got there, it was still the night of the 17th.

It seems that these ten hours have disappeared out of thin air.

The two spent a day and a half fighting jet lag, and on the morning of the 19th, they went to the New York Stock Exchange by themselves.

Luo Xiu saw a large number of reporters and spectators gathered on the street.

The people who got up so early and came to watch were obviously mostly local Chinese.

Domestic media reporters were the most present at the scene. It is said that Ali invited more than 130 domestic reporters to report, and the lineup was unprecedentedly strong.

In addition to domestic journalists, the rest are mainly journalists from the United States and Japan.

Needless to say, the United States, after all, is a local country. The main reason why Japanese journalists are so active is because the major shareholder of Alibaba is Softbank.

Ali's team had already arrived, and they were all dressed relatively casually, no tie, just a suit jacket.

Normally, for such occasions, a dress code is usually followed.

At least suits, shoes and ties are indispensable.

Luo Xiu usually doesn't like to wear a tie, and feels that it is strangling his neck. Today, in order to save face for the old horse, he rarely wears a tie.

As a result, the host dressed casually, but the guests dressed so formally, which made him a little uncomfortable.

It's like when a girl goes to her best friend's wedding and ends up dressed more grandly than the bride.

But Luo Xiu has always been thick-skinned, so he doesn't care about these things.

What's more, the old horse dressed casually, which shows that he has this self-confidence and does not need to rely on external things for support. He can do whatever is comfortable for him.

Luo Xiu walked over, shook hands with a few acquaintances, and then stood aside with his girlfriend.

He knew that he came to the platform, and he just had to be a good mascot.

Guan Shiyu is like a curious child, observing how other people do it, and seems to be really preparing for the listing of her company in the future.

After a while, she slapped Luo Xiu with her hand, "Why don't you go to be interviewed by the reporter?"

"I'll come here to be a mascot and help them improve their overall appearance." Luo Xiu said shamelessly.

"So, it's quite useful for the old horse to invite you here!" Guan Shiyu was no stranger to his face.

"Of course, my face can at least help his stock price increase by a few dollars."

"The credit is so great, do you want to let the old horse give you some equity?"

Luo Xiu said awe-inspiringly: "How can the friendship between me and the old horse be measured by money?"

At this time, there was a commotion outside the crowd, and many reporters turned around and surrounded it.

Luo Xiu looked through the gaps, and it turned out to be Masayoshi Son of Softbank.

As the largest shareholder of Ali, it can be seen that he is proud of the spring breeze at this time, and his face is full of red.

Luo Xiu couldn't help cursing inwardly: Gan, only people need to attend, why should I come here to join in the fun?No money was given to me.

However, just after scolding, he saw Sun Zhengyi walking towards him.

Luo Xiu thought to himself, can this person hear his own voice or something?
"You must be President Luo of Pinru Group, nice to meet you?"

Although Luoxiu's English is average, he has made great progress in the past few years. This kind of simple conversation is no problem at all.

He didn't need to wait for an interpreter, so he reached out and shook hands with the other party, and exchanged a few simple greetings.

Luo Xiu could also hear from his words that the president of Softbank seemed very interested in him.

As expected of an internationally renowned investor, even if he is harvesting the fat of Ali, he still does not forget to look for the next prey.

And in Luo Xiu's hands, there are too many projects that he is interested in.

Luo Xiu is also interested in him.

Of course, this is not a sexual interest between men and men.

It's that he holds so many shares in Uber and is eager to find a successor.

In the original history, Masayoshi Son bought a stake in Uber at the beginning of 18 and obtained a 77% stake at a high price of US$16.3 billion.

Now it is entirely possible for Luo Xiu to let the other party take over most of Uber's original equity in his hand at a lower price.

The smiles on the faces of the two who were thinking about their own calculations became more cordial.

……

After a while, everyone, led by the staff, entered the trading floor and waited for the opening bell.

At 09:30, Ali did not arrange executives to come on stage like other companies did, but gave this highlight opportunity to his 8 customer representatives.

Among them are heavy online shoppers, courier brothers, online store owners, and Tao Nuying...

Everyone has an inspiring story.

The courier brother told the media how he relied on hard work to distribute business cards from door to door every day, so that everyone could find him in the first time when they needed to send a package. In the end, he made millions by receiving couriers and bought several cars in the imperial capital.

All of these people have changed their lives through Ali's platform.

At this moment, Luo Xiu was standing by the side, looking at these people and things, filled with emotion.

Perhaps the greatest sense of accomplishment in running a business is that the lives of countless people have changed because of you.

No one knows what Lao Ma is feeling at this time.

Luo Xiu tried to put himself into the old horse, and what Yingmu Huadao said to Coach Anxi came to mind: When was your most glorious moment?Was it when you were in the national team?For me, it's now...

"There are too many people here, shall we go to the second floor?"

Luo Xiu took Guan Shiyu's hand and went up to the second floor to watch the excitement.

After all, this is not the listing of your own company, so don't be so substituting.

Now the relationship between Luoxiu and Ali is not only an important partner, but also a competitor.

In the future, it will become more and more competitive, and it is destined to become the biggest opponent of the entire Pinru Group.

It's just that the future opponent does not affect Luo Xiu's attitude of admiration and learning from each other.

The opponent is not used to completely negate it, but to respect the opponent, learn good qualities from the opponent, and avoid the mistakes made by the opponent.

"Will we ring the bell here in the future?" Guan Shiyu turned to look at Luo Xiu.

"Not necessarily. We have so many cards in our hands, and we have to think about how to play. We are different from them. We have better cards."

"Then how do you feel when you see them going public?"

Luo Xiu thought for a while, "I feel so tired, even more tired than holding a wedding, so let's stop doing it."

"So, do you think the wedding is a very tiring thing for you?"

Guan Shiyu looked at Luo Xiu with a smile.

"It will definitely be tiring, but no matter how tired you are, you have to do it, for..." Luo Xiu deliberately didn't finish speaking.

"You don't have to force yourself to do unhappy things for me."

"Who said it was for you? What I want to say is to get back the money."

Luo Xiu's heart ached when he thought of the money he lost in his previous life.
