The Pentium Era - South to North

Xiaofang was sitting in the office, someone knocked on the door, Xiaofang said "come in", the door opened, Xiaofang frowned slightly, but still stood up and walked towards the person with a smile.

Xiaofang said: "I was just wondering when you would come, but you guys came before JD.com, which is beyond my expectation."

Zheng Huihong smiled and said, "What, you're not welcome?"

Xiaofang also smiled: "Welcome or not, you will all come anyway."

What Xiaofang said was true. She knew that Zheng Huihong would come to her door sooner or later. There was no reason why they would not come to her door if the "fresh food delivery" was making such a big fuss now. For these domestic Internet giants, they have already Once you get used to it, they will either acquire you or destroy you. In short, you can't even think of getting out of their sight alive.

Xiaofang asked Zheng Huihong to sit down, and she said, "Are you really giving no way for others to survive now?"

"What you said makes me unable to sit still." Zheng Huihong said.

"But this is a fact." Xiaofang said, "You will indeed be unable to sit still, and you are probably not the only one who cannot sit still."

Zheng Huihong looked at Xiaofang and asked, "Do you want to wait for the price?"

"It doesn't exist." Xiaofang shook her head and said, "I hope you never show up this time. I hope you, Zheng Huihong, come to my place just to have tea together."

What Xiaofang said was true again. From the day "Zhaixianxian" was launched, Xiaofang knew that several Internet platforms would definitely be unable to sleep. Among them, the one that could not sleep the most should not be Taobao.com. But JD.com.

Fresh food delivery is still a very small area for Diabao.com, but for JD.com, it is already one of their main businesses. Their layout was earlier than that of Dabao.com, and their investment is larger than that of Dabao.com. The launch of "Fresh Delivery" in Beijing can be said to have directly opened the door and snatched away the fat in their bowls.

For these now wealthy companies, they have passed the stage of direct fighting. After all, they are public companies, and their image is still important. They cannot fight directly like courier companies, like a gang fight.

For them, the most direct way is to buy it. No matter how much it costs, after buying it, packaging it, and then selling it in the capital market, they can earn back the money. The final result is equivalent to acquiring a company. After eliminating a competitor, not only did you not pay a penny, but you also made a fortune from it.

Zheng Huihong smiled and said, "Well, it seems that you have been waiting for this day for a long time."

"I really didn't wait this time. Although I knew you would definitely come to the door, I didn't want to sell. Of course, it's not up to me to sell or not. I'm just one of the shareholders." Xiaofang said.

"Mr. Zhang has 20%, you have 20%, Beibei has 16%, and your family adds up to 56%. If you want to sell, no one else can stop it. I said Is that correct?" Zheng Huihong asked.

"Since you know so clearly, you should go to Mr. Zhang instead of me. You should also know that if Mr. Zhang agrees to sell, I will definitely have no objection." Xiaofang added, "Don't talk about selling. , if he wants to give it to you, I will agree."

Zheng Huihong looked a little unnatural. She sighed and said to Xiaofang:

"I don't dare. To be honest, I don't dare to talk to Mr. Zhang about this kind of thing."

"Oh?" Xiaofang was surprised. She looked at Zheng Huihong and smiled: "You don't dare with Mr. Zhang, but you dare with me? Zheng Huihong, you are treating me like a soft persimmon, right?"

"No, it's Mr. Zhang. He doesn't seem to be interested in these things, such as how much money he has. Sometimes it all depends on his mood. If the negotiation breaks down, it's over. He won't leave any room for it. Maybe, maybe..."

Zheng Huihong's face turned red, and Xiaofang watched, waiting for her to continue.

Zheng Huihong continued: "Maybe he will kick me out in a fit of anger. If I try to find him again, he won't even see me."

Xiaofang giggled. She felt that Zheng Huihong still understood Zhang Chen. If Zhang Chen really got his act together, he would really do this.

Zheng Huihong glanced at Xiaofang and smiled. She said:

"No matter what I say, you Xiaofang is a professional. No matter what the matter is, it can be discussed whether it can be negotiated or not. If the negotiation is successful, it will be the icing on the cake. If the negotiation is not successful, it will not hurt the friendship. You know that everyone is here for work, right? ?"

Xiaofang nodded.

Zheng Huihong said: "By the way, Xiaofang, why do you think I will definitely come?"

"It's very simple. What Beibei is doing now is exactly what you lack. Your Hippo Fresh Food can be said to be a complete failure. It is also very fragile and vulnerable. If I guessed correctly, 'Zhaixian Fresh Food' After Shou' went online, your customers at Hippo Fresh were lost very quickly and may be wiped out soon.

"What you have, 'Zhai Xianshui' can provide it, and it can surpass you in all aspects. 'Zhai Xianshui' can be said to be a crushing type for you, Hippo Fresh Food. Fortunately, Hippo Fresh Food is only a small part of you." , it won’t hurt your muscles and bones, am I right?”

Zheng Huihong nodded and said, "I admit, there is a lot of pressure on us."

"And there is no possibility of counterattack, so you came." Xiaofang said, "Tell me, how much are you prepared to bid this time?"

"Seventy-eight billion." Zheng Huihong said.

"Mr. Ma, have you ever made a mistake?" Xiaofang said with a smile, "In his eyes, the value of 'Zhai Xianshui' is only worth 7.8 billion? Does he think of 'Zhai Xianshui' as a colorful network, or is it Are you, Zheng Huihong, hiding you again?"

"Okay, okay, 9.6 billion, is that okay?" Zheng Huihong asked.

"No." Xiaofang said, "Do you know why we are still on the Angel round now and haven't even started the A round?"

Zheng Huihong shook her head and said honestly: "To be honest, we also feel strange. We have been paying attention to this matter. If you launch the A round, we will join."

Xiaofang said: "There is no such plan in the short term. The reason why we have not launched new financing is very simple. Several of us have already discussed it. We just don't want too many people to join in. We don't want this company to be completely capitalized and reported." If there is still a shortage of money, we can add more ourselves. We are very optimistic about this project.

"At the same time, what I can also tell you is that the profitability of 'Zhaixianshui' is very strong. It is estimated that it will become a cash cow before long."

"Is there no possibility of continuing the discussion?" Zheng Huihong asked.

"No, don't threaten me by cutting off the payment guarantee channel of 'Zhai Xian Delivery'. That will only be your loss, and you will hand over such a large market to WeChat Pay."

Xiaofang spoke first, blocking what Zheng Huihong wanted to say later. Zheng Huihong flattened her mouth and made a face at Xiaofang.

Xiaofang said: "Zheng Huihong, I can tell you the truth. You can also tell Teacher Ma that 'Zhai Xian Delivery' is not suitable for you. Be careful if you eat it, you will suffer from indigestion."

"Why?" Zheng Huihong asked, still unwilling to give up.

"It doesn't match." Xiaofang said.

"What doesn't match?"

"'Home Delivery' does not match your company's style. Think about why the express delivery companies you cooperate with Taiwan's richest man, Guo Guo, all fail. Your company is used to making quick money and leveraged money. No one can afford it. It’s hard to do express delivery. Among your senior executives, is there anyone like Wu Zhaohui and Wei Wenfang? There is not one.

"The same goes for 'Zhaixianshi'. What they earn is hard-earned money, not quick money. It's really not compatible with your company."

Xiaofang looked at Zheng Huihong and said: "I don't mean to belittle you. I really want to say that JD.com and it are more compatible. Really, if two companies that don't match each other want to be together, it will be a coward."

"Have JD.com come to see you?" Zheng Huihong asked.

Xiaofang shook her head: "No, there's no point in looking for it. 'Zhaixianshui' is not an ordinary company."

"What is that?" Zheng Huihong asked reluctantly.

Xiaofang was silent for a while, and then she said to Zheng Huihong:

"Originally, I shouldn't have told you this, Zheng Huihong. 'Fresh delivery at home' is Beibei's dream. As long as he doesn't have this intention, his father and I will not ask him to sell the company, no matter what How much."

After hearing what Xiaofang said, Zheng Huihong fell silent. She sat there, holding the fingers of her left hand with her right hand. Both of them were silent. After a while, Zheng Huihong raised her head, looked at Xiaofang and said:

"Xiaofang, let me tell you the truth, okay?"

Xiaofang nodded.

Zheng Huihong said: "Mr. Zhang has been very helpful to me and Lao Wan. We were all taken in by Mr. Zhang when we were almost desperate. We are very grateful to him. He has always taken good care of us. It can be said that without Mr. Zhang, we would not be able to survive." Without us now, of course, your sister, including Mr. Liu, and Mr. Tan, all take good care of us. We are really grateful, Xiaofang..."

Xiaofang stretched out her hand and held Zheng Huihong's hand. Xiaofang said, "I know."

Zheng Huihong continued: "But, after all, I am still a member of the company, so I can't influence any decisions made in the company. Really, I can only execute them, and you know..."

Xiaofang said: "I understand, Zheng Huihong, don't be stressed. As you said before, work is work. If the negotiation cannot be successful, it should not hurt the relationship. Moreover, Wu Huan told me that she said your company's culture That is, as long as Teacher Ma decides something, it must be implemented if there are conditions, and it must be implemented even if there are no conditions, right?"

Zheng Huihong nodded. She looked at Xiaofang, hesitated to speak, and finally sighed softly.

Zheng Huihong stood up and said goodbye. Xiaofang sent her to the elevator. When she came back and sat down, she felt a little depressed. Although she had known that this day would come, when it really came, Xiaofang still felt a little uneasy. .

Especially Zheng Huihong's last words, especially her hesitation in speaking, Xiaofang felt that this was an ultimatum.

"Zhaixianshu" has been remembered by people. If it does not want to be acquired, it is likely to be greeted by a storm.

Xiaofang let out a long sigh.

She picked up her mobile phone and dialed Zhang Xiangbei. When the call was picked up, Xiaofang asked:

"Beibei, where are you?"

"I just came back from Guangzhou and am now on my way to Yongcheng." Zhang Xiangbei said, "Xiangnan and the others came to pick us up at the airport and asked us to celebrate the New Year with them tomorrow night."

Xiaofang laughed and said, "Okay, that will be fun."

"Mom, Mom, I'm telling you, I'm going to die laughing." Zhang Xiangxi shouted next to Zhang Xiangbei.

"What's wrong, Xixi?" Xiaofang said.

"Let me tell you, I tied up Beibei with just two feet." Zhang Xiangxi said.

Xiaofang didn't understand what Zhang Xiangxi was saying, but Zhang Xiangxi was smiling on the phone, and Xiaofang laughed too.
