Li Dong leisurely paves the way for his feelings, but his steps in the distance never stop.
After the completion of the internal subscription, there was an additional cash flow of 28 billion yuan in remote retail.
After excluding the purchase amount of self owned property and the amount of money paid for the purchase, including the investment in the existing remote city, there is still a lot of cash flow left in the remote retail.
Maybe it's to be more plump when it comes to the market, or maybe it's to complete what Li Dong said to surpass Wal Mart.
On the eve of the listing, distant retail announced the next strategic plan of distant retail.
As a matter of fact, at this moment, we do not need to announce it from afar. Everyone knows that we will step into the international market from afar.
At present, China has reached the limit of the distance.
In retail, including e-commerce, a monopoly situation has been formed in the distance. At this time, even if it is expanded again, the effect will be limited.
Therefore, international expansion must be the next goal in the distance.
What people care about is just where the distance will start?
European market?
North American market?
Or as qiyunna said before, from land to Russia.
Expansion is inevitable. The key is where to start expansion, which is the information that some enterprises want to know.
What business is the first step in the long-distance expansion?
Online e-commerce? Offline retail? Or through Teng Xun business expansion?
Soon, the outside world got the exact news.
In the middle of March, the news was released almost at the same time as Ali.
Alibaba's announcement is that the Alibaba management team has bought back Alibaba shares held by Yahoo.
The buyback, Ali spent nearly $8 billion, took the 39% Alibaba shares held by Yahoo.
Compared with 2007, the price is not high. 39% of the shares cost less than 8 billion US dollars, and the whole Ali value is less than 200 US dollars.
However, Ali suffered from the global financial crisis in 2008, and was already weak. In 2009, Ali was dazed and lost the fastest-growing online shopping business in these two years.
At this time, the buyback amount close to $8 billion is not low.
After taking the 39% stake of Yahoo, Alibaba management team, the proportion of shares held reached a peak, as high as 73%.
At the moment, the only remaining shareholder is Softbank.
Softbank has reached an agreement with Alibaba in this Alibaba buyback. Instead of increasing its shareholding, Softbank will continue to hold 27% of its shares. This time, Alibaba repurchases Yahoo shares in the name of the group.
According to the agreement between the two sides, Ali will make the same compensation plan to Softbank. After all, Softbank also has a share of the group's money without withdrawing.
As for the specific agreement between the two sides, no one has disclosed that after Ali's listing, the other side has a series of purchase agreements.
Ma finally did not kick Softbank out, after all, Softbank did not add much trouble to him these years, and the only thing old ma can't tolerate is Yahoo.
Yahoo quit, Ali's management team also got the ownership of the whole group. At this time, Softbank's exit or not is irrelevant.
And in the outside world attention Ali kicks out of Yahoo, the distance does not know is coincidence or intentional, at this time also announced the news.
Far distance retail cooperates with Teng Xun group, the two sides jointly invested 3.8 billion US dollars and acquired 10% shares of Yahoo Japan.
Yahoo Japan and Yahoo are not the same concept.
Yahoo in the world, including Huaxia, Yahoo is the holding of Yahoo headquarters.
But in Japan, Yahoo is not the headquarters holding, but Softbank holding.
Yahoo Japan has only two major shareholders, the first largest shareholder is Softbank, the second shareholder is Yahoo, the other shares come from the stock market.
And Yahoo Japan, for many years, has been Asia's largest website before acquiring Teng Xun from afar.
Even before Teng Xun, including Ali, the market value is not as good as each other.
In addition to occupying more than half of the local search market, Yahoo Japan is also one of the top three online shopping websites in Japan, and once ranked the first e-commerce website!
And this time, distant and Teng Xun jointly purchase shares of Yahoo Japan, the intention is very obvious.
On the one hand, it is to expand Teng Xun's influence, on the other hand, it is to expand e-commerce business.
In fact, the anti foreign sentiment of island countries is not too serious.
But this is also relatively speaking, for the European and American powers, these local people have a natural obedience and recognize that the other side is a strong one, so there is not much sense of exclusion.
Huaxia, as a neighboring country, is relatively backward in economy, and the acceptance of local people is not too high.
Even if it is far away, it is not well-known in Japan.
At this time, distant acquisition of Yahoo Japan 10% of the shares, discerning people all know the purpose of the distance.
In fact, the proportion of 10% is not high, but it has entered the Japanese market from afar.In Asia, business expansion, many times Huaxia is not the first market to expand, Japan and South Korea are.
However, these countries are relatively difficult to enter.
Many well-known large enterprises have to withdraw in these countries.
Over the years, Yahoo has taken root smoothly, and has become bigger and bigger. The key is that Yahoo is not the controlling party. Softbank has a great influence in the local area.
Taking advantage of the failure of Yahoo and Softbank in Ali this time, we have reached an agreement with both sides. In fact, it is also mutual business filling.
Over the years, Softbank and Yahoo's biggest partner in China are Ali.
But this time Yahoo was kicked out, Softbank was also in danger. At this time, the distant company became a giant enterprise in Huaxia, which was more beneficial to their future than cooperating with ALI and distant cooperation.
As a result, on the same day that Yahoo was kicked out by Ali, the company also reached a formal agreement with the two companies to enter into Yahoo Japan and become the third shareholder.
At the same time, the company has set up branches in Japan.
In addition, the Asian region and other countries are also looking for the best partners from afar, officially opening the Asian layout.
Not the first to enter Europe and the United States, far away chose to manage Asia first.
Compared with the serious acclimatization of the European and American markets, Asia is relatively more relaxed.
……
In fact, the two sides announced the cooperation of Yahoo, only public news.
There are still some unpublished information.
For example, wancartoon has officially entered the Japanese market.
If a cross-border e-commerce wants to develop, the payment system is still extremely important.
Having your own payment system means you don't have to pass on your core business data to a third party.
If the distant mall wants to expand, it is necessary for the cartoon to enter at the same time.
Internet payment is related to finance. Generally speaking, if the local policy is not open enough, it is difficult to get access to it because of policy restrictions.
This time, the reason why we can enter from afar lies in the cooperation between the two sides.
Distant finance has also set up branches in Japan.
Today's payment companies have only two options to stay on the ground.
First, the acquisition of local financial payment institutions.
This does not work in Japan, where cash and credit cards are more often used. In fact, the other party also has a third-party payment, but it is not the domestic bus card, which is more similar to the one card form.
It mainly uses Sony's felica technical support, which is different from the domestic third-party payment.
Therefore, it is impossible to talk about the acquisition.
The second form is cooperation.
Find a local large group to cooperate, hold shares together, and develop the market together. This is a simple and quick way.
Without the support of local enterprises, it is too difficult for foreign enterprises to gain a firm foothold.
In order to develop in Japan, Yahoo even gave up its controlling stake.
Although the distance is not enough to give up control, but this branch, Softbank also contributed 30% of the shares.
These news, far away, have not been made public.
Most of the time, some information is open, only in return for meaningless query.
As far as other Chinese enterprises are concerned, it is actually a good thing to be able to expand the market and be held by local enterprises.
But for ordinary people, it may be affected by other factors, and the final result is not very good.
Far away, most of the time in China is a wholly-owned holding company. This time, as soon as it entered the foreign market, it was held 30% by foreign investors, especially a Japanese enterprise hated by Chinese people.
The official announcement of the news may cause some unnecessary troubles.
Based on this, there is no public information from afar.
……
Opening up the Japanese market is of great significance to the distance.
This is also the first time that remote retail and finance have opened up foreign markets and entered the international market for the first time.
This plan was not made by Li Dong, but by Yuan Chengdao.
At the beginning, Yuan Chengdao was a little frightened. He felt that the probability of Li Dong's passing was very small.
After all, it cost 3.8 billion US dollars to take 10% shares of Yahoo Japan, and the actual benefits do not look too big.
Li Dong has always attached great importance to distant finance. When he went abroad for the first time, he took up 30% of the shares. Can Li Dong accept this agreement?
Perhaps in Li Dong's view, the 3.8 billion US dollars is more money to buy roads.
For the proud Li Dong, it was no less than being coerced.
But in the end, when Yuan Chengdao reported the plan, Li Dong agreed happily.
Until the formal signing of the agreement between the two sides, Yuan Chengdao felt a little trance. This time, Li Dong was very happy.In the office.
Yuan Chengdao looked like he was eager to say something but stopped. Li Dong said with some amusement: "all the agreements have been signed. What else do you want to do?
It's normal that when we go abroad, we are the weak.
At this time, we have to open the market as soon as possible. It is the most important to occupy the market as soon as possible.
Otherwise, we will have no chance to enter in the later stage.
Anyway, it's just a foreign branch. If we don't enter the market, we have nothing. If we enter the market, we will make money.
Do you really think I'm old-fashioned?
Looking for a local powerful enterprise to cooperate and open up the market for us with the help of each other's contacts and resources is a good thing that many enterprises are eager for.
Of course, you signed the agreement on behalf of the distance.
These things will be dominated by you in the future.
After the news came to light, it was your business, and it had nothing to do with me.
In short, there is a responsibility, you carry, there is a reputation, you carry, this is also your obligation.
Now the domestic market is almost developed by me. If we want to seek development from afar, we can only start from the international market.
Appropriate compromise is inevitable. I can't stand this anger, so I seldom intervene in these things now. If I really want to talk about it, it is very likely that the talks will collapse.
This may be one of the reasons why I don't care too much now. I'm used to it and keep my head high.
Now let me bow my head. I think it's hard for me to do it.
You don't have these concerns, so you can compromise, you can compromise, and I can't and I don't want to. "
This is also Li Dong's real idea. Although he is famous far away, he can enter the international market. It is not enough to have such fame alone.
Bow down, compromise, concession, these are almost inevitable things.
A few years ago, Li Dong was willing to bow down and compromise.
But at this point, he didn't want to.
Accustomed to have been looking up, suddenly let him bow his head, he does not adapt, will not do.
Even if you know clearly, lowering your head will make the development in the distance more smooth.
Therefore, when the domestic market was almost developed, Li Dong didn't think much about doing it himself when he was developing international business.
Yuan Chengdao nodded slightly and took a deep breath: "you're right. We can bow our heads, we can make concessions, you can't."
It is not only Li Dong, but also that Li Dong can represent most of the Chinese business community.
It is normal that professional managers choose to compromise for the sake of interests.
Li Dong is not only a businessman, but also an entrepreneur.
At Li Dong's stage, he represents not only the distance, but also a spiritual symbol.
So Li Dongcai said that he would not bow his head.
He will keep his dignity even if he steals his ears.
Li Dong said with a smile: "you know, now that I have stepped into the pace of international expansion, I will soon step down as chairman of the board of directors.
Of course, there must be an honorary chairman of the board.
In the future, it is your decision, not mine, "he said
Since Li Dong does not want to bow down or admit that all this is his intention, it is necessary for Li Dong to withdraw from the distant resolution system.
Although in the eyes of entrepreneurs, this is not a big deal, and even many people want to get the opportunity.
But ordinary people don't necessarily think so, and Li Dong also hopes that he can keep his myth and strength all the time.
It's a big deal. When the time comes, come out and make things right. At least there's a buffer.
Yuan Chengdao understood what Li Dong meant, but he didn't care too much. They were different from Li Dong. They didn't have to think about the things that Li Dong considered.
And when it comes to this point, it shows that Li Dong's day of leaving is getting closer and closer.
Instead of continuing this topic, Yuan Chengdao continued: "then, the international expansion part may be more cooperative, do you think?"
Li Dong said with a smile: "you can make your own decisions. If you think it is feasible, you should follow your plan.
In my opinion, it's an extra gain to be able to grab some markets abroad and earn some profits.
After all, it's someone else's territory. It's good if we can grab a bite of meat. "
This is also Li Dong's real idea. No matter how noisy the country is, all the people who close the door are the same.
But when you go outside, you are an outsider. Powerful enterprises such as Microsoft and Google have to install grandsons in Huaxia.
Most of the foreign enterprises that can grow in China choose joint ventures.
Pure foreign investment, if you want to take root, if you want to be bigger and stronger, it will be more difficult.
Yuan Chengdao and their choice of a relatively simple road, which is also a last resort. Starting late in the distance, it is very difficult to eat alone.
The choice of cooperation has also become a necessary road for international development in the distant future.www.novelhall.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
