Chapter 643 The ancestor of the Jiang family is under great pressure
?At night after the dog days of summer, the summer heat has not faded away, and the temperature at noon still makes people feel afraid of the word "open air".
?Zhang Xuhao’s team returned from Shenzhen. They didn’t stay too long before they turned around and went to the Alibaba headquarters in Hangcheng.
??If the funder’s dad doesn’t give money, the takeout market can only be passively beaten. And after being beaten for a long time, people tend to become confused and always feel that they need a chance to get revenge.
?So, Zhang Xuhao focused on Alipay.
?That’s right, he came to Ali not to ask for Boss Ma this time, but to ask for Mr. Pang.
?Alibaba has made it clear that he does not support their money-burning battle, so he thought of another way, which is to connect Hungry Bu's port to Alipay to get traffic from this third-party payment tool.
??Alipay CEO Pang Rui received him personally, but not at the headquarters, but at a private restaurant called Shanyue.
“It is said that when Pang Rui sees people he admires, he will choose this restaurant.”
“Moreover, many of Alipay’s cooperations were basically negotiated in this restaurant. Since 2009, this restaurant has had a private box that has been vacant all year round, which was reserved for her.”
?? Chen Jiaxin did a lot of background work for Zhang Xuhao before coming here. When she saw Pang Rui inviting them to this restaurant, she suddenly felt that things were already half done.
?Subsequently, Zhang Xuhao and Chen Jiaxin came to Shanyue Private Kitchen and entered the box reserved for Pang Rui all year round.
?Pang Rui wore a long black dress and a tulle shawl. When she saw them arriving, she shook hands cordially.
?“Mr. Pang, long time no see.”
“Long time no see, Mr. Zhang, please sit down.”
“Actually, I came here this time because I hope I won’t be hungry…”
?Pang Rui waved her hand, smiled and said, "Can we eat first, Mr. Zhang? I don't like to talk about cooperation on an empty stomach."
?Zhang Xuhao opened his mouth, then stopped what he was about to say, then looked at each other and Chen Jiaxin, and sat down gently.
As distinguished guests of Shanyue Private Kitchen, the food in their private room was served very quickly, and then Pang Rui invited the two of them to eat and let them taste the taste here.
?After taking one sip, both of them were stunned for a moment.
To be honest, before coming here, they thought this restaurant contained unparalleled delicacies, but the taste they tasted was... hard to comment on.
?“Do you think it’s delicious?”
?“The taste... is very unique, it’s something I’ve never tasted before.”
?Zhang Xuhao did not say it was delicious or unpleasant, but gave a unique evaluation.
He came here to ask for cooperation. Of course, he couldn't refute Pang Rui's face, but he couldn't appear too flattering, because based on their understanding of Pang Rui, what she disliked the most was flatterers.
?Pang Rui was holding the sweet and sour pork ribs that she had taken a bite and said: "It tastes very unique."
?Chen Jiaxin coughed: "You can't say that, at least it has a special taste."
"Maybe."
Pang Rui wiped her mouth: "You should know that I never like to discuss business in Ali. It is often said in the circle that anyone who can be invited into this private kitchen to discuss things by me, no matter what the matter is, is basically considered successful. Half of it."
?Zhang Xuhao nodded: "I've heard of this."
?“Does Mr. Zhang know the reason?”
?“This is not very clear.”
“Actually, Jiang Qin and I chose this restaurant when we first met. The cooperation between Alipay and Tuan Tuan was also negotiated in this private room, so I always feel that this place is very lucky.”
After the words fell, the two people were slightly stunned.
Pang Rui wiped his mouth with a tissue and put it down: "He was only twenty years old at that time. He was sitting in Mr. Zhang's position. He was poor and white. He had nothing but bright eyes. To be honest, I didn't even plan to see him in the first place."
Hearing this, Zhang Xuhao slowly put down his chopsticks, while Chen Jiaxin opened her eyes slightly.
?When did Jiang Qin completely dominate the group buying war? In fact, it was when Alipay suddenly announced its cooperation with group buying.
?The two companies are doing joint marketing, and the advertisements are overwhelming, and all the websites they visit are caught off guard.
?Later, everyone checked around and found that the cooperation agreement between Alipay and Pintuan had been signed in 2009. At that time, Alipay had not yet obtained a license, and had even been fined a large amount of money for operating without a license.
??The details they can know are only this, but for Chen Jiaxin, why Pang Rui agreed to Jiang Qin's cooperation invitation is still an unsolved mystery.
“At that time, Mr. Jiang told me that he would establish a campus forum used by college students across the country to help Alipay, which has obtained the license, develop its business quickly.”
“I asked him what he wanted, and he said he wanted to join a group to become a first-tier partner of Alipay.”
“However, the Zhihu forum was only available in four major first-tier cities at that time, and it was still far from reaching the whole country. Alipay also tried hard to get a license, and no one was optimistic about its future.”
“But Mr. Jiang told me that he believes in the times, so he wants to make a bet with me. If he wins, he can promote Alipay for free.”
“You know what? I won’t lose money in that situation, because if I win, I have a free promotion channel, but if I lose, I don’t have to pay anything.”
“In 2011, the group buying war came to an end. Everything Mr. Jiang said has come true.”
Pang Rui unscrewed the water glass he carried and took a sip: "So later on, every time I discussed cooperation with others, I liked being in this place, thinking that I might be able to catch Mr. Jiang's luck."
?? Chen Jiaxin's head was buzzing: "So this is how the cooperation was achieved..."
?Zhang Xuhao pursed his lips, looking a little dazed.
?From the time he started his business to becoming the number one in the takeout market, countless people said he looked like Jiang Qin, and some even called him the second Jiang Qin.
??At first he was disdainful and thought it was an insult. Later, after being beaten by Fatty, he realized that it was actually a compliment.
But when he heard Pang Rui talk about those years as a client, he accidentally stepped into it and felt the advanced layout of calculating everything two years in advance, and for the first time he realized the gap between him and Jiang Qin. .
“I know that the purpose of your coming here is to prevent you from accessing Alipay when you are hungry.”
Pang Rui suddenly changed the topic and looked at Zhang Xuhao: "I welcome him, but not now."
?Zhang Xuhao raised his head: "Why?"
"Alipay's online development has reached a bottleneck. Our plan this year is to promote offline payment, that is, the scan code payment function. We need the assistance of Pintuan. Ali's investment is Ali's investment, but nothing can hinder Alipay. development of."
?As the overlord in the field of life services, Pintuan is the company closest to consumers. It also has countless delivery riders and the most professional offline promotions. Xihanheqing’s business district is also the first target for Alipay’s offline payment scenarios.
?In addition, they also have two powerful propaganda tools, Toutiao and Zhihu.
?Hence, Pang Rui will not do anything that will cause distaste for the group at this point in time, because the payment market is the top priority for Alibaba’s development and has the highest priority.
“But Mr. Zhang, don’t panic. I helped you apply for a sum of funds from the headquarters, which is enough to handle the group takeout.”
?Zhang Xuhao was stunned for a moment: "What is Mr. Pang's plan?"
Pang Rui smiled slightly: "After offline payment channels are rolled out, Alipay will become the largest payment software in the country. The traffic of e-commerce will go through Alipay, the traffic of group shopping will also go through Alipay, and the traffic of daily consumption will go through Alipay. Can you Can you imagine how huge it would be?”
???…”
?Zhang Xuhao and Chen Jiaxin looked at each other and could understand Pang Rui's thoughts.
At the end of the group-buying war, Pintuan used Alipay to suppress the major group-buying websites and won the final crown. However, it was Alipay that actually benefited the most.
?Because Alipay not only eats up the traffic of group shopping, but also increases its popularity with the help of the war.
Pang Rui continued: "At that time, if you are hungry, you will not be connected to Alipay. Word-of-mouth group buying will be connected to Alipay. In addition, we also have Fliggy Travel Plan, Taopiao Plan, Community Group Buying Plan, and even leasing and finance , when these are all connected..."
??Chan Jiaxin opened her eyes wide: "Takeaway, group buying, performance ticket purchasing, community grocery shopping, leasing... Will Alipay become a super group shopping with payment functions?"
“That’s right, I don’t think Mr. Jiang could have imagined that what defeated him was not Dianping or Hungry, but a payment software that aggregated all functions.”
“This is what business can do…”
“Perhaps this is how business is done. I learned these things from Mr. Jiang.”
After Pang Rui finished speaking, she looked at Zhang Xuhao: "If you are hungry, you just need to wait for a while before you can become a partner to share traffic with Alipay."
?Hearing these words, Zhang Xuhao realized that Alibaba’s ambitions have never stopped, and he is still coveting the market in the hands of Pin Tuan, and even has plans to target it.
??After Alipay has integrated all the things that Internet businesses can do, group shopping still relies on Alipay's payment function, and it is obvious which one is stronger and which one is weaker.
"I see."
“Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for your understanding. I hope our future cooperation will be quite pleasant.”
?After seeing off Zhang Xuhao and Chen Jiaxin, Pang Rui got in the car and returned to Ali's headquarters, calling Jin Bin on the way.
?Jin Bin is the person in charge of Alipay’s offline payment promotion. He just arrived in Linchuan last night and is negotiating with Pintuan to cooperate in promoting offline payment.
?However, Pang Rui's call didn't go through because Jin Bin had muted his cell phone and was currently negotiating with Jiang Qin in the conference room.
“Our group group will fully support the offline promotion of Alipay and spare no efforts!”
“Then, what does Mr. Jiang need?”
??Jiang Qin immediately waved his hand: "No, no, I don't want anything. I just hope Pintuan and Ali can have an everlasting friendship!"
Jin Bin's scalp felt numb and he thought, how could such a simple and kind-hearted person build such a big business? Is it really just luck? To be honest, Jiang Qin's selflessness made him feel a little embarrassed.
“Mr. Jiang, why don’t you ask for some benefits?”
"The bond of friendship is more precious than any money or resources. I plan to immediately arrange the national branches of the group, put down the work at hand, and study Alipay's offline payment promotion path. By the way, your promotion plan will bring Yet?"
?“Bring...brought it.” Jin Bin took out a thick stack of promotion plans from his bag.
Jiang Qin opened it and took a look: "Awesome, Mr. Pang is indeed a professional. My understanding of the payment market is not as good as hers!"
Jin Bin stood up and said, "Since Mr. Jiang has agreed, I will go back to Hangzhou immediately and report to Mr. Pang."
"I'll arrange for someone to give it to you. Besides, I heard that you like to drink tea. I have two tea leaves here. It's a small gift. It's not respectful."
?“Mr. Jiang is too polite.”
??Jin Bin walked out of the group headquarters with the tea handed by Jiang Qin, still a little dizzy.
??He was ready to fight for a group meal, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly. You know, Alipay is now asking for a group meal, and he can still eat and take it.
At the same time, the afternoon sun shone into the conference room. Lu Zhichuan came out of the office next door and placed a Kuaiyi Pay acquisition contract in front of Jiang Qin.
?“Six?”
?“Yes, it took six.”
Jiang Qin looked at him: "Lao Lu, you are really awesome. You can bargain better than my mother. You cut off six of the twelve."
??Lv Zhichuan scratched his head: "But there are more than six. There is a shareholder among them who wants to retain 6% of the shares."
??“I can agree.”
??Lv Zhichuan glanced at the Alipay promotion plan in Jiang Qin's hand and swallowed: "Boss, your ancestors must be under a lot of pressure, right?"
?Jiang Qin looked stupid: "I don't even understand what you are talking about."
?“Isn’t this the boss lady’s catchphrase...”
“Anyway, thank you for your hard work, Lao Lu. Go back to rest and spend time with your wife.”
?Lv Zhichuan took a step back and bowed slightly: "May President Jiang rule the world for generations to come."
?Jiang Qin pursed his lips, picked up his cell phone and called Sunai, planning to ask her and Tan Qing to go to Kuaiyi Pay.
After receiving the call, Sunai said feebly: "I'm absent from work today, boss. If you need anything, come see me tomorrow."
“Fuck, absenteeism means absenteeism. How do you feel free to be out of the three mortgages and out of the five insurances?”
“I’ve lost my life just because of Cloud Flash Pass these days…”
“Your efforts will be rewarded. I got the license, and I accidentally picked up a wild third-party payment software promotion plan on the road.”
