The big cake thrown by Fang zhe made PayPal's people impetuous. Even Carl Icahn, the wily wolf king of Wall Street, had a faint green light in his eyes, as if he saw a beautiful prey!
"Mr. Fang Zhe, although it will be difficult for us to cooperate with Huizhong cloud under your company, I believe that all difficulties can be solved as long as we have enough sincerity!"
Omidia, the founder of eBay, has changed her mouth without any shame. In the face of great interests, there is no face that can't be put away.
You don't put down your face, it's just because the interest of tempting you to put down your face is not big enough. Now, the opportunity for eBay to cooperate with wechat is definitely worth omidia's beating his face!
"I've always opposed the split of PayPal from eBay, mainly because I'm worried that there will be many difficulties in the development of eBay after the split. Of course, if your company's wechat can establish cooperation with eBay, the future development prospect of eBay will be very bright!" Donahoe, the most popular and fiercely opposed eBay CEO, has also changed his mouth now, He even complimented and flattered each other while he was talking.
Although PayPal's attitude has changed 180 degrees, Fang zhe never wanted to let wechat cooperate with eBay. Even if there is, that's just what he wanted!
The main purpose of what he said just now is to cheat PayPal's bottom line. At the same time, he also draws a big cake and tells them that there is such a possibility of cooperation, but the probability depends on the sincerity of the other party!
Because of the big cake drawn by Fang Zhe, the subsequent negotiations will become much easier. In order to express their sincerity, PayPal promised that Fang zhe could give priority to moving a small part of his business to Huizhong cloud. As for the rest, it depends on the sincerity of Huizhong!
Under Fang Zhe's hint, Huang Siyi went back with the reason why PayPal refused to cooperate with Huizhong cloud just now. What Huizhong cloud's international e-commerce business experience is insufficient and needs to take time, what international payment transaction clearing is more complex, and Huizhong needs to think carefully, etc.
People on the PayPal side who listen to these words can't wait to slap themselves. They all blame their cheap mouth and come up with so many excuses for rejection. Now it's OK. They've sent it back intact!
Huang Siyi's roundabout refusal made omidia know that it is not so easy to let wechat provide top-level access to eBay, but after all, this matter has been put forward, so there is no small opportunity. What his side needs to do is to raise enough chips and negotiate with Huizhong slowly!
When Fang Zhe and his party left, including omidia and the two CEOs of PayPal and eBay, they personally sent them to the gate of the company with enthusiasm, which is a big step compared with Fang Zhe's treatment when he came here!
Before leaving, Fang zhe looked at PayPal CEO Marcus, who was about to stop talking. When his right hand shook hands with him, his left hand patted him on the shoulder and said, "I hope we can cooperate happily!"
A simple action and a word are like sounds of nature in Marcus' ears. Marcus has enough reason to believe that Fang Zhe's action expresses his support for continuing to serve as PayPal CEO!
The movements between the two people naturally also see in the eyes of omidia and Donahoe. The former shows a strange look in the eyes of Marcus, but the latter is full of naked jealousy. When Fang zhe shook hands with him just now, he just politely stopped. His eager eyes are the same as not seeing at all!
On the special bus leaving PayPal headquarters, Fang zhe thought about the gains and losses of his trip.
Well, the split of PayPal and eBay is basically a foregone conclusion, and the specific share proportion of PayPal after the split of Huizhong investment should be negotiated slowly according to the situation at that time. According to Fang Zhe's estimation, this figure can not be less than 15%, because it is a conservative valuation of wechat payment entrance!
"Lost..."
Fang zhe was thinking, when a telephone bell interrupted him.
"President Ma? Why did he call me?"
Fang zhe looked at the caller ID on his mobile phone and thought in surprise.
Few people know Fang Zhe's private mobile phone number, and President Ma of Alibaba is one of them. This is their first call since they exchanged numbers!
After the bell rang three times, Fang zhe connected the phone.
After greeting, Mr. Ma asked, "I heard you went to the United States?"
"Yes, didn't you dial an international call?"
The horse on the phone always smiled and said, "then I don't know. I told my secretary that I wanted to see you, so he called you!"
"What can I do for you?" Fang zhe wondered. What's worth President Ma's special call to himself.
"Have you ever heard of double eleven? It's a shopping Carnival organized by our company Taobao and tmall on November 11 every year! I'd like to invite you to come and play as a special guest!" President Ma said his intention to call Fang Zhe.
However, Fang Zhe is more depressed. The famous double 11 naturally knows that the annual double 11 is not only a grand event in the domestic e-commerce industry, but also a grand event in the Internet industry.
Choppers are enjoying Carnival shopping, while people in the electricity and Internet industries love to see the day of trading on double eleven, Alipay's trading peak and trading volume, the growth trend of various commodities, and the efficiency of logistics.
But what Fang zhe doesn't understand is, what does Alibaba invite itself to do for the double 11?
Not to mention that the relationship between Fang Zhe and President Ma can only be regarded as ordinary friends. Even Huizhong and Alibaba, competition is greater than cooperation because of Alipay and Huizhong's investment in Jingdong, Miya and other vertical e-commerce. In this case, President Ma specially made a cross-border call to himself and invited himself to the double 11 scene. What's the matter?
Fang zhe thought to himself that if he remembered correctly, Alibaba's double 11 festival was the first time since 2009 and has only been in its third year now. There is still a big gap between Alibaba's double 11 Festival and a few years later in terms of activity intensity, user participation and transaction volume.
Today's double 11 is more like a festival of an e-commerce company in Alibaba. Unlike a few years later, double 11 has become a national Carnival in the whole e-commerce industry!
Although he didn't know what medicine was sold in Mr. Ma's gourd, Fang zhe didn't directly refuse. He just shirked and looked at the schedule. If he had time at that time, he would certainly go to the double 11 scene in person!
After hanging up the phone, Fang zhe turned his eyes twice and asked Li Wen, the Secretary sitting in the co pilot:
"What's the news in China these two days, especially about us?"
As Fang Zhe's full-time secretary, Li Wen also works as an information officer around Fang Zhe. Many news at home and abroad or Huizhong related news screened by the Ministry of public opinion are basically reported to Fang zhe by Li Wen. Therefore, when Fang zhe asked, Li Wen thought a little and suddenly said:
"Oh, I remember watching domestic news when I went out this morning. Many domestic media reported on our visit to the United States.
Because there are a lot of people here this time and we don't pay special attention to confidentiality, there are still a lot of domestic media. "
"Let me see!" Fang zhe took the iPad from Li Wen and opened the Huizhong news aggregation app specially organized by the public opinion department.
This app is a Huizhong internal application specially developed by Huizhong mobile Internet business department according to the needs of the public opinion department. It mainly aggregates global news information about Huizhong, wechat, Fang Zhe, game industry and so on.
According to the person in charge of the public opinion department, the search engine inside the app can capture relevant news around the world within seconds, and through the intelligent translation and intelligent screening system developed by the public opinion department, according to the news release time, release media, communication volume, attention and reprint volume, The severity level and other conditions show the news reports that deserve the attention and attention of the Ministry of public opinion.
At this time, in the domestic news column on the front page of Huizhong news aggregation app, the most watched news is: "Fang zhe visited the United States and visited eBay headquarters!"
