Reborn multinational giant

Chapter 670 Bloomberg Interview

Regardless of previous or present life, Alibaba and Jingdong's non-compliance is well known. Alibaba's core platform, Tmall's logo, is a cat, and Jingdong's logo is a dog. It is a dispute between the two families and is called a cat and dog dispute by the industry.

Cats and dogs have always been unjust families. Even Fang Zhe lamented that their two families were truly born unjust families.

President Liu of Jingdong often diss Alibaba and President Ma on various occasions, while President Ma, although popular, sometimes metaphors Jingdong and President Liu.

Now, Mary's question, although it sounds like ignition and fueling, is in the hands of the horse.

President Ma smiled inexplicably and chatted: "I think that China's first e-commerce stock is not said on its mouth, but on its hands. It cannot be said that whoever has said something powerful, whoever first listed in the United States is the first e-commerce stock.

In terms of listing, we in Alibaba were already listed in Hong Kong in 2007, but then we were delisted from Hong Kong for strategic development reasons.

This time Alibaba is listed in the United States, not to compete for the first share of e-commerce, but to bring real benefits to American shareholders and investors and share the historic development opportunities of our 1.3 billion people market in China.

It can be said that investing in Alibaba is investing in the future of China's e-commerce industry and investing in the future of China. I believe that calm investors will make their own accurate judgments.

As for whether JD.com will surpass Alibaba, I dare not say anything. I believe it is difficult for us to surpass us, whether we are JD.com or any other competitors, at least in terms of market share and GMV transaction volume.

If there are any historic major changes or opportunities in the e-commerce industry in the future, I believe that it is only then that Alibaba's true challengers and competitors will be born! "

President Ma did not seem to respond positively to Mary's two questions, but he seemed to be answering both questions everywhere. In his answer, he did not directly degrade the competitor as President Liu of Jingdong, but used his past practice to raise the pattern to a height, and then implied that the competitor's vision and pattern were insufficient.

Compared to President Liu's remarks, I don't know how many times smarter. In China across the ocean, President Liu of Jingdong, watching the old opponent's listed market live, was also angrily thrown down the teacup by President Ma.

Fortunately, Mary didn't ask any more questions about Jingdong. Ma always had no excuse to sarcasm Jingdong. The few teacups left in Liu's office were finally saved.

“President Ma, I would like to ask you one last question. As far as I know, more than 90% of Alibaba's business is currently in China. Has Alibaba any plans or plans to develop and fully internationalize beyond China since its listing in the United States? If so, what do you plan to do?"

Mary's question, which is of great interest to all shareholders and investors who have invested or intend to invest in Alibaba, is likely to influence and change their investment intentions, so he is also very cautious:

“Since its inception, Alibaba has been committed to global e-commerce. Our earliest Alibaba B 2B platform has many international buyers and customers. Four years ago, we also established a special C2C platform for overseas buyers.

Today, although this platform is not comparable to overseas well-known e-commerce platforms such as ebay and Amazon, its development potential is huge. In recent years, while fully transforming and migrating, we are also vigorously promoting e-commerce in developing countries or sub-developed countries such as Southeast Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe.

In addition, last year, Tmall, our core e-commerce platform under Alibaba, also accepted the investment shares of Huizhong. Over the past year, Tmall has made a lot of contributions to our performance growth by exploring new types of social e-commerce jointly with WeChat.

In the future, Alibaba will also join forces with highly successful conglomerates in internationalization and strive to do more internationalization exploration in the e-commerce industry. I believe Alibaba will not be stingy enough to help grow into a true internationalization giant! "

President Ma said finally, looking at Fangchul, Mary also pointed the microphone at Fangchul, asking:

“Mr. Fang Chul, can you give me an interview?"

After seeing Fang Zhe nod, Mary continued:

“I'll ask you later about President Ma and Alibaba. I heard you and Madame have just returned from your honeymoon. How was your honeymoon trip? Is there anything interesting to share with us?"

Fang Zhe and Feng Xue glanced at each other. They remembered the scene of two people touching their belly button in the pub.

Fang Zhe told this little story to Mary with a smile. Mary smiled weird and smiled. Jitter is still only a domestic fire. Mary, who is an American, naturally doesn't understand the infarction of Fang Zhe's opposite hand touching the belly button. However, this does not prevent her from continuing to ask the following questions:

“I just interviewed President Ma, and I think you heard him. President Ma believes that you will not be stingy enough to help Alibaba grow into a true international giant. Would you agree with him? If so, what ways and means do you and Huizhong intend to use in the future to help Alibaba achieve full nationalization?"

Fang Zhe looked at President Ma and said:

“I agree with him that both I and Huizhou will help Alibaba in its efforts to achieve full internationalization, both based on Huizhou's status as a Tmall shareholder and on our friendship with General Ma and our belief in watching over each other's businesses born in China.

As for the method, there are many internationalization experiences and lessons that can be used as learning materials for Alibaba's internationalization. The network of rookies, a logistics company that we and Alibaba have jointly invested in, will also strive to improve international trade navigation capabilities, help speed sales and other cross-border e-commerce, and better conduct international trade in the coming years. ”

Speaking of this, Fang Zhe did not go any further. Although there is still a lot of cooperation between the crowd and Alibaba in internationalization, obviously for reasons of commercial secrecy and to reduce the hostility and vigilance of traditional overseas e-commerce enterprises such as Amazon, Fang Zhe does not want to disclose much.

President Ma glanced at Fang Zhe and understood what he was thinking.

Mary did not continue to ask deeply. He asked Fang Zhe the last question in his interview today: "Which company in JD and Alibaba is more favorable?"

Although Fang Zhe naturally prefers Alibaba better, Huizheng is also one of the major shareholders of Jingdong. Fang Zhe will not be stupid enough to give President Liu of Jingdong a chance to carefully remember and hate himself. Therefore, he can only give a courtesy answer:

“Take care of both families! Huizhou has shares in both companies. If both companies can maintain their initial intentions and develop their core competitiveness well, we believe that both companies can have a good future. ”

Mary didn't get her own satisfactory answer, she could only hum and stop talking. As Fang Zhe, she naturally couldn't be too coerced. Otherwise, if Fang Zhe wasn't happy, she might be fired by her boss tomorrow.
