Chapter 694 Wedding Countdown
"Boss Ma, the money is gone."
"So fast?"
The confrontation between the three markets has consumed a huge amount of cash flow in the taxi industry.
The funds of Bibi and Kuaidi were burned out in an instant, and both entered a relatively weak stage.
So under the instruction of Boss Ma, the remaining 30 million yuan was quickly received, and Kuaidi also received more than 50 million yuan in investment.
Because of the rapid development of Bumblebee after changing its route, and it seemed to have received the true teachings of Jiang Qin, a venture capital institution also helped him to raise a considerable amount of financing.
This is the gradual transformation of market advantage to capital advantage.
To put it simply, the larger the market, the more optimistic the capital is. The most important thing is the endorsement of Jiang Qin, the iron-blooded tyrant that capital is most optimistic about.
Based on this situation, the market seems to have to continue the confrontation.
During the Thousand Group War, Lashou, Suixintuan, Nuomi and the later Pintuan confronted each other in Shanghai for more than a year. Even if Pintuan defended the ring, many opponents kept coming back.
During the takeaway war, Baidu, Pintuan and Ele.me had been in a standoff for half a year.
Everyone learned their lesson later and knew that a long standoff would not have a good result, but when it was their turn, no one was willing to let go first.
Some experts predict that this standoff will last until the beginning of next year.
"Bibi has a big advantage at present, but Kuaibi is also not weak at all. It has exerted a lot of strength in the later period, and it seems that it has been reserved in the early period."
"The most terrifying thing is that the Bumblebee team seems to have opened up after meeting Jiang Qin, and the guerrilla warfare is very clever, with a sense of blue butterfly flying in the clouds."
"We all know that the triangle is the most stable. It is impossible to end this three-legged situation in a short time."
In the business major of Linchuan University, an old professor made an analysis of the current situation, which made the students think deeply.
However, the development of the industry will obviously not move forward according to everyone's ideas.
It is true that the three-legged stand is the most stable confrontation posture, but once there is an external invasion, the whole situation will be in chaos in an instant.
At this moment, Baidu came quietly.
Sunai had asked Jiang Qin when they were chatting in the company. Baidu wanted to get involved in every trend. Although it didn't achieve any results, it seemed that it didn't want to miss anything. So why didn't he come to get involved this time?
Jiang Qin didn't answer at that time, but now Baidu has given its own answer.
Uber, a technology company founded in Silicon Valley and the largest taxi-hailing platform in the entire international market, announced its entry into the domestic market. Baidu joined as a shareholder and became their largest investor in the domestic market.
That's right, Baidu did not choose the previous path to cultivate local platforms such as Nuomi Group Buying and Baidu Takeaway.
This time, he changed his usual practice and introduced a foreign species with sharp fangs.
Uber is not the first foreign Internet company to target the Chinese market. Yahoo in the information portal era, Google in the browser era, Amazon in the e-commerce era, Gaopeng in the group buying era, and Takeaway Superman in the takeaway era have all been in this huge market.
But this time, Uber's invasion posture is particularly different.
Before entering the market, the previous Internet companies did not care about the degree of involution of the domestic business ecosystem and had a certain contempt for the competitive atmosphere in the domestic market.
They have always come in with a high-handed attitude, thinking that domestic consumers are barbarians who have never seen good things.
This is also the main reason for the previous companies to exit the market in disgrace.
On the other hand, these foreign species have mature business models and fixed architecture systems, and they basically copy and paste when entering the domestic market.
Their leaders are often long-term overseas turtles, elites, or heads of Asia, etc., who have a shallow understanding of the domestic market.
Just like a certain father-in-law, Lao Deng.
But this time, Uber's senior management in the domestic market were all recruited from locals. Except for the top management, no one was parachuted in from abroad.
The most terrifying thing is that he even incorporated the legacy of the group buying war, the food delivery war and other hot wars.
That's right, Uber wants to form a team that knows the domestic market best.
Back, all back!
After localization, Uber quickly launched its own app Uber, completed the localization at lightning speed, and then carried a huge amount of international capital, ready to immediately enter the two cities of Kyoto and Shanghai.
After the news came out, the entire taxi market was instantly turbulent.
Because many people know that Uber is really a completely different foreign company.
In 2010, Uber was founded in San Francisco. It took only one year to sweep across North America. The next year, it quickly entered the overseas market. It currently has four major overseas markets in Europe, Africa, South America and Southeast Asia, with a valuation of 42 billion US dollars.
In other words, this company is best at fast battles.
"The Chinese market is currently the largest market in the world, with the largest business ecosystem and system, which is completely different from the markets of other countries."
"Local companies that grew up in China, regardless of scale and size, seem to have the ability to challenge international Internet companies. We must admit this."
"The first step for Uber to enter the domestic market is to localize the team, which shows that we respect our opponents and respect this market with huge potential."
Feng Nanshu curled up in Jiang Qin's arms, spoke softly, and translated a statement about Uber entering the domestic market.
This matter has not been reported in the news yet, and the video is from the circulation within the business circle.
The spokesperson is a middle-aged American man named Travis Kalanick, the founder of Uber and one of the new CEOs in Silicon Valley.
This statement is not just empty talk, because Travis came in person and is currently in Kyoto. The video was also recorded during an interview at a hotel in Kyoto.
Jiang Qin touched the feet of the little rich woman and shouted in his mind.
Feng Nanshu was looking at Jiang Qin with watery eyes at this time, and couldn't help but kiss him on the face.
"Did you drink milk today?"
"Not yet."
Feng Nanshu curled up her snow-white and shiny feet, and found that she was picked up and put on the chair in the restaurant.
Then Jiang Qin walked to the dining table and started to heat milk.
Feng Nanshu turned her little face to look at his busy figure, and suddenly spoke in a low voice, secretly calling him a sweet and sticky husband.
"Hmm? What did you say just now?"
"No, I didn't say anything."
Feng Nanshu started to play dumb, looking around, and finally had her face pinched.
After the little rich woman finished drinking the milk, Jiang Qin stared at her for a long time: "Have you gained some weight these two days?"
"No." Feng Nanshu disagreed with him saying that she was fat.
"Not fat? But when I hugged you just now, why did you feel a little heavy?"
Feng Nanshu narrowed her eyes: "That's because there is another one in my belly."
Jiang Qin also imitated her and became very serious and said: "What else is there in my belly?"
"There is a baby of yours."
"Goose, goose, goose."
Jiang Qin laughed a dog laugh and felt extremely happy.
He would tease her with all kinds of tricks every day, just to hear the phrase "there is a baby of yours", as if he was a little addicted.
Feng Nanshu drank the milk blankly, not knowing why he was so happy. She thought he disliked her fatness, so she couldn't help but kick him under the table, not hard.
During this period, my mother and aunt were busy observing other people's weddings and discussing the wedding banquet process with the wedding planning company.
For them, organizing the wedding of their own sons and daughters is probably the happiest thing in the world.
Jiang Zhenghong discussed the guest list and seating positions, as well as the title of the invitation with Feng Shihua who came home from get off work every day. After repeated consideration, they had compiled the first version to the sixth version.
At this time, the good friend ceremony had also entered the countdown stage.
In the evening, red clouds crossed the sky. Yuan Youqin and Jiang Zhenghong came back from Qin Jingqiu and handed the invitation list to Jiang Qin.
"Son, you confirm the list again. After confirming it, your father and I will go back to Linchuan to write the invitation."
"Oh, okay."
Jiang Qin reached out to take it, and saw that the one at home couldn't help but move forward, so he hid aside for a while: "I'm getting married, why are you joining in the fun?"
"I'm getting married too!" Feng Nanshu couldn't help kicking him.
"Really? What a coincidence? Your groom must be very handsome, just like..."
Jiang Qin raised his lips: "Just like my bride is very beautiful."
Feng Nanshu was about to make a scene when she heard the first half of the sentence, but she pouted her face instantly after hearing the last sentence, with a cute look of "If you say it again, I will be shy to show you."
Yuan Youqin couldn't help laughing when she saw them, thinking that her son's mouth was really cheap. No wonder Nanshu didn't call him husband. He felt itchy if he didn't provoke her.
However, liking someone probably means that you want to provoke her all the time, and you can't help but express your true feelings when you provoke her.
After checking the invitation list written by his father and uncle, Jiang Qin ran upstairs and brought another list. The two lists were stacked together and handed to Jiang Zhenghong.
His list was compiled by Wei Lanlan and Wen Jinrui. It was a thick stack of some business partners and political officials who were to be formally invited at the company level.
Jiang Zhenghong looked at the list and couldn't help but exclaimed.
According to the tradition of Jeju, wedding invitations can't be written by just anyone.
The Jiang family used to be a wealthy family, and they used to be landlords, but they quickly fell into decline in the last few generations.
So the matter of writing invitations must be done by the clan leader, that is, the one with a higher generation.
But this list...
My goodness, if our clan leader wants to finish writing all these, won't he be so tired that he will cry?
At this time, several relatives far away in Jeju couldn't help shivering, thinking that this winter is colder than usual, why do they feel a little numb before the time comes.
(I don't ask for monthly tickets, but I just want to kowtow to everyone... or2)
