Chapter 673

For Fang Zhe's visit, Arima always expressed a warm welcome, but also felt a little surprised.

Tonight is the double 11 evening party. It is also the first time Alibaba has held a momentum building and active double 11 evening party on the evening of November 10 before the double 11 since it held the double 11 event in 2009.

Everyone in Alibaba is busy preparing for the war. Even President Ma is ready to perform as the final guest at tonight's double 11 party.

In previous lives, Alibaba only started to hold the double 11 party in 2015. Unexpectedly, in this life, Alibaba began to hold the double 11 party a year in advance because of Fang Zhe's butterfly effect.

Of course, there are some places slightly different from previous lives. For example, although Ali began to hold a party this year, the theme of the party is the double 11 Carnival Party. Whether it is inviting stars and guests of performances or the activity content of interactive links, almost all of them are aimed at domestic users, and there is little interaction between international stars and overseas users. Generally speaking, This is just a double 11 Carnival Party in Alibaba China.

Fang zhe can understand that Alibaba organizes the double 11 party. After all, more than 90% of Alibaba's customers and revenue come from the Chinese market. It's good for you, me and everyone to hold a party specifically for Chinese people.

However, if Alibaba has been listed and Alibaba's next major strategy is comprehensive internationalization, the international model of the party is not enough!

Hangzhou green city Taohuayuan, Arima's private single family villa, reception hall, Fang Zhe and Ma drink each other. Of course, they don't drink wine, but tea.

Since President Ma's private club Jiangnan club was closed in response to the above call, many of President Ma's reception arrangements in Hangzhou are basically arranged here or Alibaba headquarters in Xixi park.

But today, the whole Alibaba is busy and full of people. The meeting between Ma and Fang Zhe is scheduled in this quiet private villa.

"Originally, I wanted to invite you to attend the double 11 party to support us, but I thought you helped us when we went public the other day. If I wanted to pester you again, I would be a little too thick skinned. I didn't expect you to come by yourself!" Mr. Ma said with a smile.

Fang zhe waved his hand. He didn't intend to participate in the double 11 party organized by Ali, but after listening to Li Wenbin's report on the development of cloud computing the other day, he intended to take the time to meet President Ma and promote Ali's internationalization overseas. Therefore, he looked at the opportunity of double 11 and happened to take part in the double 11 party.

Fang Zhe and Mr. Ma laughed and talked about the party.

Ali held the double 11 party for the first time. Although the international model is not enough, the scene and lineup are still luxurious.

The party was jointly held by Jiangsu and Zhejiang satellite TV and mango satellite TV in Hangzhou Huanglong stadium. The general director of the party was the famous film and television director Feng Xiaogang, and the host was several hosts of mango satellite TV. In addition, the most eye-catching party was the luxurious and starry lineup of stars and guests.

Including first-line stars Zhao Xiaowei and Ning Xiaojing, magic master Liu Xiaoqian, pop stars Cai Yilin and Chen Yixun, popular traffic stars Zhang Yixing and Lu Xiaohan, as well as the new generation Post-00 idol group tfboys.

Some netizens joked that Alibaba almost invited half of the stars in the entertainment circle in China, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan to this double 11 party, which is no less impressive than the new year's day and spring festival galas of major satellite TV.

Ali is willing to spend so much money to hold the double 11 party. First, it is to build momentum for the double 11 Carnival Shopping Festival that starts in the early morning of tonight. Second, it is to make netizens waiting for double 11 chop their hands not go to bed in advance because they are too bored to stay up late. After all, double 11 starts at LingDian. If there is no exciting program, many netizens may go to bed directly, When I wake up tomorrow morning, the impulse to go shopping will disappear a lot.

Fang Zhe and President Ma talked about the topics related to the party, and then changed the topic and said, "I came to Hangzhou this time mainly because I want to discuss something with you face to face."

Mr. Ma looked straight at Fang Zhe, waiting for his following.

Fang zhe said: "we signed the resource exchange agreement when Huizhong cloud merged with Alibaba cloud at the beginning of the year. I think it's time to accelerate!"

As soon as Fang zhe said this, President Ma's eyes lit up. He prayed for Ali to go abroad and become a real international e-commerce giant like Amazon countless times. However, the complex overseas market environment and the ups and downs of previous sea trips have kept Ali from moving forward.

President Ma admires Fang Zhe, a younger generation. What he admires most is that he can do what other domestic Internet enterprises can't do, go to sea and become a real multinational giant!

Now, Fang zhe said that we should accelerate the original agreement, which means that Alibaba's internationalization pace will be greatly accelerated.

Mr. Ma doesn't doubt that the resource exchange agreement will bring great help and potential to Ali's going to sea. As the leader of Ali, Mr. Ma clearly knows how much traffic tmall has come from wechat in the past two years since Huizhong took a stake in tmall. So far, wechat has brought more than one-fifth of the traffic to tmall.

This is only domestic. If Huizhong can open the overseas entrance of wechat to Ali as stated in the agreement, Ali will have a huge number of wechat overseas users of more than one billion and growing rapidly as soon as he goes to sea!

Of course, because this matter has too much to do with, one careless mistake will lead to the strong strangulation of overseas e-commerce giants such as Amazon and the antitrust investigation of relevant foreign governments. The cooperation between the two sides in this area has been very slow and stable.

Now, President Ma is surprised to hear Fang zhe say he wants to speed up the cooperation process. Logically, Ali should be more anxious than Huizhong, and Huizhong should be more stable.

Fang zhe knows that he doesn't understand the doubts in President Ma's heart. It's impossible for President Ma and Ali to put aside their concerns and cooperate with Huizhong. Therefore, he simply told President Ma about the current competition pattern between Huizhong cloud and Amazon cloud.

With Mr. Ma's wisdom, he understood what was going on. It turned out that Huizhong cloud had competed with Amazon cloud in the core e-commerce field of Amazon. No wonder Fang zhe would come to him to talk about cooperation.

Although Alibaba cloud has been merged by Huizhong cloud, President Ma is still clear and optimistic about the potential of cloud computing. In recent years, the global cloud computing market has grown by 40% or even more every year.

The prospect of cloud computing is bright. If Fang Zhe and Huizhong hadn't taken out the sea resource replacement in the e-commerce field that Ma and Ali are more greedy for, Ma would never have given up Alibaba cloud.
