Chapter 674 War on Amazon

“What's next?" To be honest, Li Wenbin has been a bit confused these days. If this is not Fang Zhe's reminder, I'm afraid it's no surprise that Amazon Cloud has overtaken its share in the global market after a while.

“Although Huizhou Cloud is temporarily ahead of Amazon Cloud, this is based on our merger with Alibaba Cloud and the acquisition of github to rapidly increase market share. This year's cloud computing business has grown tremendously with these two, so what next year?"

Fang Zhe asked Li Wenbin a question.

According to the current market situation, in China, Huizhou Cloud has accounted for more than 85% of the cloud computing market, and has entered the plateau area. Huizhou Cloud's growth in the domestic market will depend on the growth of the entire domestic cloud computing market, and it will achieve rapid growth and explosion.

Therefore, in order to maintain its current leading edge, Huizhong Cloud can only work in overseas markets.

As mentioned in the report just now, Huizhou cloud accounts for only 24% of the overseas market share in non-China, while Amazon, although almost no market is squeezed by Huizhou cloud in China, at 33% of the overseas market share is nine percentage points higher than Huizhou cloud!

Again, in the case of the acquisition of github by Huizhou Cloud, the gap between the two was as large as 14% before Huizhou Cloud acquired github.

It can be seen that Amazon Cloud has a deeper cultivation and improved customer system in overseas markets than the convergence of clouds.

Today, Fang Zhe has elevated Li Wenbin's position to the position of Vice President of the world. Is he hoping that he can demonstrate more ability to compete for more market share for Huizhong Cloud in overseas markets?

“Yes, what should I do?" Fang Zhe had already thought about this before Li Wenbin came to report on his work.

Amazon Cloud, because it started earlier than Huizhou Cloud, and with the resource advantages of large companies, this accounts for so much market share than Huizhou Cloud in overseas markets. The development of Huizhou Cloud is developed with the growth of Huizhou Cloud. When the early strength of Huizhou Cloud is not strong, the development of Huizhou Cloud also focuses on domestic. When Huizhou Cloud is big at the international level, Huizhou Cloud slowly catches up with the footsteps of overseas.

Today, Huizhou Cloud and Amazon Cloud are not much different in terms of technology and service level. One of the core competitive advantages of Huizhou Cloud is a mature solution in the field of play and Internet APP services, while Amazon Cloud's core competitive advantage is a mature solution in the field of e-commerce.

Even after the merger of Alibaba Cloud by Huizhou Cloud, by absorbing Alibaba Cloud's service capabilities to the entire e-commerce empire and improving its own solutions and service levels in the e-commerce field, it still wants to be higher than Amazon Cloud in the overseas e-commerce field, but still has some insufficient strength.

Of course, this is not because of the ability of Huizhou Cloud to serve in the e-commerce field and the level of technology, but because most of the overseas e-commerce customers are living and developing under Amazon's e-commerce empire, just like the original domestic huizhou cloud to Alibaba Cloud, even if Alibaba Cloud's market share is squeezed again, it belongs to the cloud computing needs of Alibaba's e-commerce empire, it is still sufficient for Alibaba Cloud to survive and develop.

Therefore, Huizhou Cloud can only increase its market share in China by merging Alibaba Cloud. Similarly, in overseas, if Huizhou Cloud wants to develop faster, it must bite a cake from the e-commerce field. In other words, Huizhou must attack the core business areas of Amazon Cloud, and Huizhou must fight several large overseas e-commerce platforms such as Amazon and ebay!

When the word "war” came out of Fang Zhe's mouth, Li Wenbin was fainted.

Ever since, the development of Huizhong overseas has been trying to avoid direct competition with old Internet giants such as Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and so on, but instead trying to find different competitive directions. This can be seen from Huizhong Cloud's emphasis on publicizing its services and technical advantages in the fields of play, Internet APP and streaming media in overseas, and diluting its own e-commerce cloud services.

Huizhou has not launched an attack on the core business areas of these established companies. One is that their business potential is huge and they have not yet reached the ceiling of growth. The other is that the strength of Huizhou in the past is still inferior to those of these established companies. Once the war begins, it will not hurt the bones.

But now, a year after Huizhou was listed, after a year of development, Huizhou's strength has been enough to break the wrist with these old companies, cloud computing business has reached a point where it is difficult to achieve rapid growth and progress without competing with Amazon Cloud in e-commerce.

Now that Alibaba is listed, it will comprehensively accelerate the internationalization process, and the time has come to officially unite Alibaba to compete with Amazon in overseas e-commerce markets.

Working with Alibaba to compete with Amazon, ebay and other companies abroad is also one of the conditions for Alibaba Cloud's willingness to merge into Huizhou Cloud at the beginning of the year. One of the big tricks that Huizhou and Alibaba have jointly dealt with Amazon is to gradually open the shopping entrance in WeChat overseas, and embed Alibaba's express sales and other shopping websites through small programs or by jumping into third-party apps.

As early as a few years ago, WeChat has launched a shopping section in China, and embedded websites such as Jingdong Tmall Weibo in the form of mobile web pages or redirecting apps, traffic from WeChat and users have become an indispensable and important source of these e-commerce websites.

WeChat has never launched a shopping section overseas, either because Huizhou has not yet had the strength to provide the same shopping experience abroad, or because Huizhou has not reached relevant cooperation agreements with overseas e-commerce giants such as Amazon and ebay.

Jun doesn't see any domestic companies that can have an entrance on WeChat, basically all accept the investment of the hub, even strong as Alibaba's Tmall.

For a giant like Amazon, how is it possible to accept the investment of a company at the same level as Huizhong? As for ebay, Fang Zhe privately left the entrance for Alibaba, Jingdong and other domestic e-commerce enterprises. He was unwilling to open the entrance to ebay in advance and took advantage for nothing. Even if it was to be opened to ebay, it was necessary to wait for Ali or Jingdong and other domestic e-commerce enterprises with which Huizhong had an investment relationship to go out to sea.

Alibaba can easily promise to sell Alibaba Cloud to Huizhou Cloud. It is because Huizhou is willing to wait for Alibaba to be listed. When Alibaba is ready to open the WeChat entrance overseas, the other day Alibaba was listed. President Ma and Fang Zhe's inexplicable look also refers to this matter.

Today, the development of Huizhongyun overseas has urgently required Alibaba to launch an attack on Amazon in the field of overseas e-commerce. Fang Zhe decided to discuss the matter with General Manager Ma, who is still trapped in the joy of listing, to promote Alibaba's internationalization!

On the afternoon of 11.10, another Double Eleven, before the future, Fang Zhe's private plane arrived at Hangshi Xiaoshan International Airport.
