Giant of the times

"No, Mr. Sun, Mr. Li, news just came that SF Express no longer accepts eBay Dangdang's express delivery service!!!" A young and beautiful female secretary ran into the conference room and said in panic.

This female secretary is dressed very sexy, with a short black skirt that covers her buttocks, and a pair of big white legs that are very eye-catching. However, no one was interested in watching the "scenery" at all. At this moment, when they heard the news, Son Zhengyi, Mr. Li and others all felt dizzy.

More than 70% of eBay Dangdang's express delivery business is undertaken by SF Express. Once SF Express is lost, no one can believe what will happen!

It is only 2003, and the express delivery industry is far less developed than it was in 2016 in the previous life. Companies such as YTO, STO, and Huitong have not yet developed. They have even been suppressed by SF Express, and their scale is not as large as in the previous life.

Obviously, China's e-commerce is basically controlled by Li Zetian. In line with the principle of "don't let outsiders do it," it is difficult for other express delivery companies to get orders from Amazon, eBay, and Alibaba. However, SF Express is developing extremely fast. Not to mention e-commerce express delivery, it also receives a lot of traditional express delivery business.

Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine that the existence of SF Express has suppressed the living space of other express companies.

Once eBay Dangdang loses the support of SF Express, it will be impossible to find a suitable express company to deliver goods for them in a short period of time, especially cross-regional and cross-provincial express delivery.

Son Masayoshi asked calmly: "Why doesn't SF Express accept our company's express delivery?"

Female secretary: "They said there was too much business and they couldn't handle it!"

"Humph, what a ridiculous excuse! Presumably SF Express is also Chronos·Li's industry..." Sun Zhengyi sneered.

Li Guoqing frowned and nodded: "Yes, Mr. Sun. As early as eight or nine years ago, Chronos Li acquired SF Express and later developed into the largest express company in Asia! Before the merger of eBay and Dangdang, most of the Some of the express delivery business is handed over to SF Express.”

"Do you think this can stop the rise of eBay Dangdang? Is there no express delivery company in China?" Sun Zhengyi said disdainfully. He did not think that eBay Dangdang would not be able to develop without SF Express, and SF Express would not accept orders. , naturally other express companies will make up for it.

Li Guoqing is not so optimistic. He has established Dangdang.com for several years and is familiar with all aspects of e-commerce websites, especially express delivery. He has personal experience.

Currently, there are very few express delivery companies that can cover the whole country. They are usually regional express companies, and many express companies cooperate with SF Express. For example, YTO Express delivers goods from Guangzhou to BJ, but the transit is done by SF Express. It is done by express delivery, and many express companies have warehouses using SF Express for their goods. If SF Express does not accept orders from eBay Dangdang, it will naturally not agree to cooperate with these express companies. So, these express delivery companies will encounter many problems when transporting packages from Guangzhou to BJ by themselves.

If the package cannot be delivered to consumers in time, consumers will have great resentment.

"Mr. Sun, this matter should not be underestimated. Even if eBay Dangdang cooperates with other express companies, it will cause many problems such as long delivery time and undelivered goods in a short period of time!" Li Guoqing said, and gave Son Zhengyi introduced the situation of China's express delivery industry in detail.

After listening to this, Sun Zhengyi couldn't help but his face darkened. He huddled on the sofa, lowered his head, and fell into deep thought.

After a while, Sun Zhengyi said with a serious face: "This is a tough battle! As long as eBay Dangdang survives it, it will be able to gain a foothold in the Chinese e-commerce market! If PayPal terminates cooperation, we will speed up the development of third-party payment software. SF Express If express delivery terminates cooperation, we will join forces with other express delivery companies in China to create an express delivery alliance, and invest in helping these express delivery companies develop and build large warehouses!!!"

"Soldiers will block it, and water will cover it. No matter how strong Chronos Li is, we have a way to deal with it!"

Masayoshi Son paused and said loudly: "It seems that eBay Dangdang needs financing again! Moreover, as long as we put forward the idea of ​​building our own warehouse, many venture capital companies will definitely support it!"

Li Guoqing looked surprised. If he builds his own warehouse, many weak express companies can rely on the warehouse and cooperate with each other. If I can't deliver the goods, you can help me deliver them. If I can't deliver the goods, you can help me deliver them. , In this way, a nationwide express delivery network can be established!

Li Guoqing's eyes flashed with worry, "The main problem at the moment is that it takes time to build a warehouse, and it costs a lot of money. It also takes time to get other express companies to cooperate. Can eBay Dangdang survive and grow... If eBay If Dangdang is not popular, then even if you build your own warehouse, it will be a waste of money..."

After thinking about it carefully, Li Guoqing couldn't help but smile inwardly. SoftBank and other venture capital companies have boarded the pirate ship. It will not be so easy to get off the ship. If the company wants to develop, it must burn money and continue to raise funds!

At the moment, eBay Dangdang is very similar to JD.com.

JD.com has built its own warehouses and has been burning money. Even if it is ranked second in the industry in China, it is still burning money, but some people are willing to give it money to burn. As the saying goes, "Zhou Yu hits Huang Gai - one is willing to hit and the other is willing to suffer." As the founder of the company, regardless of whether the company eventually collapsed or not, he himself had already made a lot of money, married Bai Fumei, and reached the peak of his life.

…

Under the leadership of Masayoshi Son, within a few days, eBay Dangdang made a big move and carried out Series B financing, and the amount of financing this time was huge, reaching 100 million US dollars. At the same time, it was also announced that eBay Dangdang will build its own warehouse, build eBay Dangdang logistics system, and invite major express delivery companies to cooperate.

As soon as the news came out, the industry was shocked, as if an atomic bomb had been dropped on a calm lake. Countless small and medium-sized express delivery companies were delighted to hear this and contacted eBay Dangdang one after another to inquire about more details about cooperation.

After Wang Wei, CEO of SF Express, received the news, he immediately realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately called Li Zetian to tell him that the eBay Dangdang website was going to build an eBay Dangdang logistics system.

When Li Zetian heard this, he frowned.

"What do you think should be done?" Li Zetian asked Wang Wei. After all, Wang Wei knew the express delivery industry better than he did.

Wang Weidao: "Ebay Dangdang has the support of many investors such as SoftBank, the American Tiger Fund, and the American IDG Group, and there is no shortage of funds. If it is allowed to build its own logistics system, it will definitely get the support of many express delivery companies. So, not only I am afraid that the plan to block eBay Dangdang from the express delivery side will be difficult to carry out. In addition, it will also allow other express delivery companies to develop and grow! However, as long as the eBay Dangdang website cannot develop and there is not enough business volume, everything they have done will be in vain! Maybe it will be in vain! , SF Express can also buy the other party's warehouse at a low price..."

Li Zetian nodded, thoughtfully, that is to say, as long as you kill and cripple the eBay Dangdang website, no matter what you do, it will be in vain, and in the end it will benefit SF Express.

PS: This is the second update. There are at least four updates today. Well... there will definitely be five updates.
