Chapter 160 The Temptation of the Empire
After Mr. Bi left, Wang Yi asked very dissatisfied: "Mr. Ou, why do you listen to this person? Baidu is such a big company, and it condescends to come to us to discuss cooperation and give a lot of benefits. Send people away?"
Ouyang and Yanxi looked at each other with a smile, and said to her, "Good things take time, don't worry."
Facing a little girl who doesn't understand the Internet at all, he doesn't need to say anything.
Yanxi also said politely to her, "Mr. Wang, when will the next one arrive?"
Wang Yi glared at him, swallowed a sigh of relief, picked up her mobile phone and went out, returned to the meeting room after a while, said that she would be there soon, and then went downstairs.
"Brother, can you give me a price?" Ouyang asked quietly while there was no one around.
Yanxi raised a finger and said, "It can't be lower than this number."
For a few seconds, Ouyang stopped breathing, and he could see that this finger represented [-] million.
It's just that something that I coded with passion can be worth [-] million?This is a number that I never dreamed of when I was working for Party A.
"So much money is not because of how exquisite your code is, you should also be able to know the gap between yourself and a senior programmer.
The reason why it is worth the money is because of the customer information you have now, and these customers happen to be the most lacking customers of the three major factories.
It may only take half a day to a day for a copycat of our APP, but it is difficult to get customers and accurately hit this market.
Just wait, there will always be someone who knows the goods. "
Yanxi's words were like a reassurance pill, which made Ouyang calm down completely.
The two chatted a few more words, and Wang Yi had brought several people into the meeting room.
This time, there were also three people on the other side. The leader was a man who was about 40 years old, about 1.7 meters tall, with an inch-cut head, also wearing glasses, sunken eye sockets, thin body, very simple smile, and exceptionally white teeth.
The man was followed by two young men, a man and a woman.
Wang Yi introduced: "This is Mr. Yao from Ali Imperial Research Institute, and the two next to him are his assistants, Xiao Li and Xiao Ying.
Mr. Yao, this is Mr. Ou, the general manager of our company, and Mr. Yan, the chief architect, next to him. "
The process of these three people is clear, they distribute business cards one by one when they come up, and their sincerity is much stronger than that of Baidu.
After they were all seated, the assistant Xiao Li took out a water cup from his bag and placed it squarely in front of Mr. Yao. Then he took out a small black notebook and a pen and put them in front of Mr. Yao.
Wang Yi called his girls to pour water for everyone.
Ouyang exchanged pleasantries at the beginning: "Listen to the accent, Yao is always near the imperial capital, right?"
"That's right, I'm from Tangshan. Haha, Mr. Ou has good ears. I've met many young entrepreneurs during this time. You are the most successful person I've ever met." Mr. Yao's Mandarin is very standard. , like the abdominal cavity pronunciation, very vigorous.
Then Ouyang gave an overview of the company's recent situation, and Mr. Yao patiently listened and took notes.
After his introduction, Mr. Yao said: "I am involved in the formulation of the company's market strategy. To put it bluntly, I just follow a few P11s to determine the company's market development direction and positioning for the next few years.
In fact, we have been transforming, from Taobao, Tmall, to Alipay, and then to Alibaba Cloud. In the past, it was C to C or B to C. Now we focus on the business of to B and empower various companies with technology.
But I am not here this time to empower your company, that is the responsibility of the Alibaba Cloud Business Department.
I am here to discuss a cooperation model that allows you to become enablers and provide support and services to many enterprises.
Some companies use hot search as their selling point, hehe, how can hot search be as powerful as hot sales?
For so many years, Ali has carefully planned and closely deployed the market. It can be said that it is leading the direction of the market and is a well-deserved pioneer.
However, we have indeed missed a market, and it can even be said to be a large market, that is, the elderly group.
We used to think that targeting young and middle-aged customers is enough, because they will get old, and when they get old, we will naturally cover all age groups.
After all, the cost of letting an elderly person learn to use our products is too high.
But unexpectedly, the field we were going to give up was targeted by a humble Pinxixi. The favorite thing for the elderly across the country every day is to hack and chop in the group. The group portraits of these elderly people were captured by Pinxi Xi made it more and more precise.
Do you know how much it is worth now?More than 600 billion, US dollars.
This is our major mistake and a huge deviation in our research and judgment.
Ali has been looking for opportunities to regain this market until he discovered your product.
Simply put, we are interested! "
Ouyang and Wang Yi lowered their heads in disappointment at the words of the previous President Bi, but the words of this President Yao made them full of expectations.
Comparing them with Pinxixi, which has a market value of more than 600 billion US dollars, the money will definitely not be small.
Ouyang squeezed sweat in his palms and asked, "Mr. Yao, so what is the cooperation model you plan to cooperate with?"
Mr. Yao unscrewed the water glass leisurely, took a sip, then filled his mouth with more than half of the glass, closed the water glass leisurely, looked at the three people opposite and said, "We want to buy your app. "
Wang Yi blurted out excitedly: "How much do you plan to pay?"
At the same time, Ouyang asked nervously, "Is it just an APP?"
Mr. Yao said with a victorious expression, "Yes, it's just your APP, [-] million, to buy your source code and data.
You are still the general manager of Duolai, your employees are still your employees, and your server is still your own server.
As far as I know, you are originally a game company. It should be pretty good to use this money to invest in your own main business, right? "
This price did meet Yanxi's expectation.
To be able to sell an APP at such a high price, Ouyang is undoubtedly very successful.
Wang Yi had already clenched her fists and secretly said oh yeah.
Ouyang seemed moved when he heard [-] million, at least the transaction was fair and the money was real.
But Yan Xi cleared his throat, just like Baidu, this is not the cooperation he wants: "President Yao, please allow me to express my personal opinion.
If you buy an app for [-] million yuan, someone else may sign the contract immediately, and it is difficult for us to refuse.
But please pay attention to my wording. When I say it is difficult, it does not mean that it will not be possible.
I know that Ali has always wanted to build a data empire that spans all walks of life, just like IBM before.
You know the value of data assets more deeply than any domestic entrepreneur, and you cannot tolerate data that is out of control in the market.
Just like the technological empowerment of to B you mentioned just now, in my opinion, it is like selling data.
How much can the computer room and server be worth if they break the sky?Only constantly updated data is a real, inexhaustible cash cow.
What you see is not our APP itself, but the way and results of our data acquisition.
In fact, what you buy for [-] million is not an APP, but the qualification of others to compete with you, and what you buy is the sense of security of your data empire. "
Mr. Yao clapped his hands: "Wonderful, what you said is quite wonderful!
Now I finally know why this APP was born in your company, it is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.
But business is always business. In business, I show the greatest sincerity, 5000 million, and the conditions are still the same.
If you miss this village, there will really be no store here. I advise everyone to think carefully. "
After speaking, he tapped in front of Xiao Li with his fingers, and Xiao Li immediately took out the contract from his bag and put his hands in front of him.
5000 million, as long as Ouyang nods, he can get it immediately.
Wang Yi's eyes widened, and she stroked her hair clumsily to hide her nervousness.
"Brother, shall we sign?" Ouyang turned to look at Yanxi.
"Mr. Ou, I can't lie today. I don't want to sign this contract."
Ouyang reached out and shook the back of Yanxi's hand.
This sunny boy has cold palms.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Yao, I listened to my brother, [-] million is indeed very tempting, but we don't plan to sell our children in this way, sorry." Ouyang got up and bowed slightly, "Mr. Wang , please see off the guests."
Wang Yi clenched her fists tightly, gritted her teeth, and squeezed out a few words: "Mr. Ou, this is 5000 million, don't you want it? Are you crazy?"
Mr. Yao got up with his assistant, left the contract, and said confidently: "You can think about it again, let me know when you are willing to sign, and see you later."
After these people left, Yan Xi asked Ouyang: "Brother, have you ever failed?"
"Hey, brother, as long as you're here, even if I fail one more time, I'm not afraid."
Good brother, let's gamble together again!
