Who Can Fall In Love After Being Reborn?

Chapter 531 Merge with Dianping

 The Group Buying Industry Summit Forum hosted by Dianping will be held in Kyoto, and the most luxurious venue has been reserved, mobilizing almost half of the manpower and material resources.

 However, this kind of behavior does not highlight their majesty in the eyes of the guests attending the conference, but rather makes them feel a little guilty.

To put it simply, the public also understands that even though the group competition is surrounded by negative news, they still cannot reach the first place. They can only use the splendid splendor to push up the "virtual" part and sit here. A top chair.

But when the forum ended, overwhelming news was spread...

Those large chain brands will definitely swarm in, and Dianping will really have a hard time sitting down.

“I heard that the boss of the group group is coming too.”

"Of course I heard about it. If Mr. Jiang doesn't come, we won't be able to come holding hands."

“I don’t quite understand what this person is thinking. Just send a city manager to the scene. Wouldn’t it be equivalent to giving ground to the opponent if he goes out personally?”

 “Maybe it’s because of financing.”

"What's the meaning?"

Later, the third-party payment platform came online, and everyone was ready to take over the group. However, he signed the contract first, allowing him to directly drive other companies out of the four major first-tier cities.

“Are we going to work together to siege the group?”

 “Hey, Hua Zi, I’ll accompany you too.”

　　Back when Pintuan settled in Shanghai, it was besieged by LaShou and Nuomi. Everyone thought it was bound to collapse, but it managed to survive by signing contracts first.

 “Jiang Qin seems to be here.”

 “That’s okay, just have one.”

 The date is also interesting, it was in the evening after the seminar.

“Is Mr. Jiang from the group group here?”

 But when it comes to business, both lizi and face matter, so everyone doesn’t fight each other offline.

 If the problem is caused by yourself, then that’s all. You can only blame yourself for taking the wrong path or lack of ability.

As we all know, this month of group-building has been a tough one.

The five of them finished their cigarettes in silence, and suddenly felt like bringing Jiang Qin over to have a look, wondering what he would feel like when he saw this scene.

There were actually more than five of them. There were many people waiting for Jiang Qin at the reception, including the bosses of major group buying websites, delegations from capital investors, media reporters, and major cooperative organizations in the group buying industry.

When the signing conference was confirmed to be true, everyone thought of Jiang Qin and wondered how embarrassed and embarrassed he would be tomorrow.

It was for nothing else, because they found that the layout of this banquet hall was similar to that of the one next door, especially the sign erected in front of it, which also read Dianping.

Seeing this scene, the five people’s scalps went numb at the same time, thinking that Dianping was really stupid.

“Smoking is not allowed in the hotel. Let’s smoke one outside. Do you smoke?”

But the words on that sign are different from those next door. It says "Dianping and National Chain Brands Signing Conference."

Hearing this, Robin and the others did not speak. Instead, they smoked and looked at the background board, lost in thought.

The five people entered the venue and walked around, and finally looked at the sign-in desk, only to realize that Jiang Qin had not come yet.

 But the current crisis is obviously caused by others. I don’t know if Jiang Qin can withstand this indefensible feeling of powerlessness.

 “At the door, look at the door!”

He was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and walked in with a high head. He was tall and had raised eyebrows. He did not look angry or depressed at all. Instead, his expression was indifferent and he could not see any emotion.

 “It’s so cruel.”

 “I haven’t seen anyone yet.”

Especially Changsong, when he came to the reception, he made a gesture of humility to let others go first.

But when they all walked into the banquet hall, the cigarettes were not lit, but they were stunned.

“I don’t know the specific situation, but Dianping is making a lot of money this time.”

“Rumors say, Alibaba and Tengxun sent delegations to attend the meeting.”

I thought this market would be like this, but I didn’t expect that group shopping would really collapse this time.

"where?"

Luo Ping and Robin from LaShou.com, as well as Kang Jingtao, who had been defeated in Shencheng, plus Chang Song from Nuomi Tuan, and Bao Renwei, the general manager and executive officer of Wowo Tuan, all five people came together, and the discussion continued.

They are not really friends, and they were even fighting each other for territory before they came here.

Just imagine, when the seminar is broadcast, followed by the signing conference, what will happen to those merchants who are already nervous?

Everyone knows that Pintuan worked hard to appease the merchants during this week, but it was all in vain, just like a broken building whose load-bearing walls were broken with a hammer.

The five of them each had a cigarette and wandered around the hall for a while, and finally entered the empty banquet hall next door.

With whispers, more than a hundred people in the venue all looked at the door of the banquet hall. Staring intently, they saw a young man slowly entering the splendid banquet hall.

With Kang Jingtao and the others' "accidental disclosure", everyone knew what was going on in the banquet hall next door, so they all opened their eyes wide, and some couldn't help but sneak in and take a look.

 The evening of the first day of the seminar was a welcome reception, which was a scene of informal conversation.

 On the one hand, it is convenient for smoking, and on the other hand, it is also convenient for talking.

They want to directly and publicly sign the former chain brand owners of the group in front of the media and peers, make the place lively, connect the entire public opinion line, and maximize the effect.

Kang Jingtao lit up a cigarette and took two puffs: "Dianping should have hired experts who can play with public opinion. This time the group fight was like mud falling into his pants. It's either **** or shit."

And behind him was a man, Yao Shengdong from the Kyoto branch. The two came one after another and signed in at the sign-in area.

 It was the first time for many people at the scene to meet Jiang Qin, and their first thought was that this man is really young.

 For such a young person, he has stood at the top of the industry step by step under the siege of many competitors, and almost became a unicorn. This is really enough to make everyone sigh.

 It’s just, that’s the past, it’s just the past.

 “Sir, what drinks do you need?”

 “Apple juice, the kind in a champagne glass.”

 “Huh? Um...oh oh, okay.”

 The waiter on site quickly brought a glass of apple juice in a champagne glass and handed it to Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin took the cup in his hand and stepped into the crowd. He found that many people were looking at him, and then they lowered their voices and whispered, with an expression that was half a smile but not a smile.

This expression is easy to interpret. To put it simply, everyone is waiting to see the joke about joining the group.

At this moment, Chen Jiaxin, the strong lady of Dianping, and their boss Zhang Tao came over and shook hands with Jiang Qin.

 “Mr. Jiang, it’s better to see once than to hear a hundred times.”

Jiang Qin smiled slightly: "It's an advantage for you. You can see a face worth more than 6 million for free."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　?)

Before Zhang Tao and Chen Jiaxin could react, many people came around, such as Changsong, the boss of Nuomi Tuan, Shen Yang, and Wang Binliang, the boss of Wowo Tuan. Everyone came over to shake hands with him with glasses of wine in their hands, with friendly expressions and polite words.

 Because no matter what happens to the group now, Jiang Qin's strength has conquered them before. In this aspect, Jiang Qin deserves to be respected.

Especially Zhang Tao, the boss of Dianping, even though his actual age is much older than Jiang Qin, he still lowers the rim of his cup slightly.

"Mr. Jiang, do you have time? We have prepared a conference room, and someone wants to talk to you privately."

 “Privately? Okay.”

Zhang Tao made an invitation gesture, and then Jiang Qin was invited into a small private reception room on the east side of the banquet hall.

Yang Xueyu is sitting in the living room, and there is another person sitting next to him. He is an old acquaintance of Jiang Qin, that is Peng Sheng, the investment manager of Tencent.

 “Mr. Jiang, long time no see.”

 “Long time no see, Mr. Yang, and Mr. Peng.”

Jiang Qin sat on the sofa opposite and looked at the two people.

Yang Xueyu was silent for a moment and then said: "Recent public opinion is very unfavorable to group joining. I believe Mr. Jiang is also having a headache. Mr. Peng and I are here to provide solutions to Mr. Jiang."

"Tell me."

“As you can see, we have invited a lot of media and a large number of celebrities to build momentum this time. Once the seminar ends tomorrow, Dianping will definitely become the most popular group buying website.”

Yang Xueyu pursed his lips: "As for the group fight, Mr. Jiang naturally knows what the outcome will be."

Jiang Qin looked at him calmly and motioned for him to continue.

“In emerging industries, everything is unstable. The slightest disturbance can destroy an enterprise. Especially after public opinion arises, the corporate image is fixed and difficult to change.”

“What does group buying look like today in the minds of consumers and merchants? It is fragile, unstable, and difficult to trust.”

"I know you are very powerful. To be honest, I have settled in Shanghai twice. I break out in cold sweat every time I see you. You are the most powerful businessman I have ever seen, bar none."

“But having said that, how can you not have allies when doing business in a domestic environment like this? You can think about it, if you hadn’t been fighting alone, how could you have been coerced by public opinion to the point where you are today?”

Jiang Qin was happy after hearing this: "The theoretical school really talks too much nonsense, let's just focus on the key points."

Yang Xueyu pursed his lips: "Let's merge with Dianping and accept Tencent's shareholding. But you don't have to worry about one thing. We will still maintain independent operations. The group business is still yours, but we will support each other in business to achieve a win-win situation." situation."

 “When you talk about win-win, my scalp goes numb.”

"Why?"

Jiang Qin looked out the window: "You may know too little about me. In my case, a win-win situation never means that both people win. It can only be that I win twice."

Peng Sheng couldn't help but say: "Mr. Jiang, public opinion has reached this point, how can you win twice?"

"I'm afraid that you will win twice, but I want to know, what benefits can I get if I agree to your request?"

“We will disclose the news of your merger with Dianping at this seminar, as well as the news of Tencent’s investment. In this way, the rumors of the funds being cut off will naturally disappear!”

Jiang Qin picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "What's the price?"

Yang Xueyu sat up straight: "The field of group buying will be handled by Dianping from now on. You can just concentrate on community group buying."

　　　…”

 “Think about it.”

Jiang Qin leaned on the sofa and was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "To be honest, I haven't regarded you as a rival since 2009, but today you finally look like a rival."

Yang Xueyu looked at him: "What does Mr. Jiang mean?"

“Do you know how to eliminate the influence of public opinion?”

"ah?"

“Actually, it’s easy to say, just take a more explosive thing to direct attention, and then take advantage of the limelight to create a new persona. It’s like copying and pasting a document, and the old one is gone.”

Yang Xueyu was stunned for a moment, and looked at each other with Peng Sheng.

Jiang Qin put down the tea cup in his hand: "Mr. Yang is right when he says that no one can do business alone. Even if I am as handsome as Yanzu, I cannot control everything."

“Since Mr. Jiang can understand, this matter will be easy to discuss.”

“No, I mean, you seem to have misunderstood. Who said that team members always fight alone?”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　?)

Jiang Qin put down the tea cup in his hand, stood up and straightened his suit. Ignoring their confused looks, he turned and left the conference room.

  The reception at the summit forum did not last too long because many people had to attend some private events, such as foot washing and singing. After all, that was the end of business.

However, when leaving the venue, many people saw Jiang Qin standing outside the banquet hall, puffing on a cigarette, and then suddenly seemed to collapse and smashed the wall.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

As everyone has just seen, Dianping invited him into a special meeting room, probably to force him to have an abortion, which made this former unicorn find it difficult to accept.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Internet business is indeed like a bubble. You may rise to great heights overnight, but you may also collapse overnight.

 “Boss, is he gone?”

"Yeah?"

Yao Shengdong nodded and put away the camera in his hand: "Except for the general public who are still inside, everyone else is almost gone."

Jiang Qin threw away the cigarette butt: "Damn it, if I leave a little later, I'm going to get lung cancer."

“What about us? Mr. Kang from LaShou.com came over just now and wants to ask you to wash your feet.”

“Wash a few times and go back to the hotel. Your landlady is an invincible vinegar spirit.”

After Jiang Qin finished speaking, he turned around and walked down the steps towards the parking lot.

Yang Xueyu and Peng Sheng left the conference room and met with Chen Jiaxin and their boss Zhang Tao.

"how's it going?"

Yang Xueyu shook his head: "We haven't reached an agreement."

Chen Jiaxin frowned: "We've been forced to this point, and we haven't reached an agreement yet?"

 “No, but what he said was strange.”

"What's the meaning?"

“He told me that if you want to eliminate public opinion, you have to create it again, and then establish a persona in the public opinion. He also said... fighting in a group is never about fighting alone.”
