Rebirth 1984: Starting from the development of Hanka

Chapter 262 Burning money to develop
At this time, websites such as Alibaba, Amazon, Taobao, Netflix’s DVD rental website, and Pandora’s Pandora music website have not yet officially launched in the United States, but major investment companies are eager to do so.

Moreover, the valuation is also very high.

Since April 4st, the executives of major websites have been mainly busy with financing.

However, e-commerce websites are different from portal websites in that the former has great potential for development.

Therefore, even for financing, Zhao Ye does not intend to sell too many shares.

……

Alibaba.com Inc.

Sun Zhengyi of Softbank looked at the competitors present and couldn't help feeling depressed and powerless.

There are too many competitors, and everyone wants to invest in Alibaba.com. Softbank’s scale is far inferior to investment companies such as Goldman Sachs and Sequoia Capital.

Moreover, Alibaba's valuation has been fired up to 80 billion US dollars!
Sun Zhengyi has to withdraw from the competition now, leaving with regret.

"It's crazy, SoftBank can only invest in those start-up companies~" Sun Zhengyi shook his head and sighed, and walked out of the building with a look of desolation.

"Is there any start-up company with more development potential than the Internet company under Wujiang Group???"

"We SoftBank still have a chance?"

Sun Zhengyi was at a loss.

Standing in front of the window of the office, Zhao Ye overlooked Sun Zhengyi and his party leaving. He couldn't help but lament that things are different, and Sun Zhengyi, who was so famous in his previous life, might not be able to achieve the achievements of his previous life again.

In the previous life, Softbank rose rapidly because of its investment in Yahoo, Alibaba and other companies.

In this life, Softbank has no investment opportunities at all, and the companies that can cooperate with Wujiang Group are all bigwigs.

"The times make heroes, and nowadays, there is a high probability that Xiaoma, Robin Li and others will disappear from the crowd. But Robin Li is a master of technology, and he may stand out..." Zhao Ye sighed endlessly.

"Oh, Zhao Ye was not born in the sky, the ages are like a long night, how lonely it is to be invincible!"

……

……

Half a month later, websites such as Alibaba, Amazon, Taobao, and Netflix were launched in the United States.

The American people have heard of these websites for a long time, so they ushered in a large number of users as soon as they went online.

Of course, the US local website is also very strong, after all, it has developed for so long and has many loyal users.

Moreover, many websites in the United States are now reporting groups to keep warm, and cooperate with each other to jointly resist the attacks of major websites under the Wujiang Group.

In order to compete for the market, it even set off a war of e-commerce, crazily burning money for advertising, or subsidizing consumers and so on.

There are also a large number of investors supporting local American websites, so these websites are actually very rich.

The war of burning money, the war of hesitating to add firewood, is endless. In the end, it depends on who can't persevere.

However, this was not Zhao Ye's original intention.

Even if the Wujiang Group has money, it will not participate in this kind of money-burning battle like a bottomless pit.

Amazon.com began building its own warehousing and logistics in the United States.

Taobao hypes up the free opening of stores for all people, and promotes e-commerce for all people.

With the help of Wujiang Group's resources and connections, Alibaba has built a large-scale e-commerce between multinational companies!
With the support of Internet Explorer and navigation websites, Alibaba, Amazon, Taobao, Netflix, Pandora and other websites will not have no traffic, but whether they can finally beat their competitors and become the number one in the industry depends on the subsequent development.

Not long after, Alibaba.com took the lead in completing the first round of financing, sold 20% of the shares, and obtained 20 billion US dollars of funds. Alibaba's post-investment valuation was as high as 100 billion US dollars!
Immediately afterwards, other websites also received investment one after another.

For example, Amazon raised $30 billion, and Taobao raised $25 billion...

Although the financing amount of each website is very high, major investment companies are still scrambling to participate in the investment, because these websites have already established a firm foothold in markets outside the United States and have huge commercial value.

Now, after entering the US market, it has also performed well. It can be said that it has been in full swing all the way, and the number of users has skyrocketed.

Zhao Ye is very satisfied with the speed of development of the major websites, and temporarily allows them to develop freely.

It is just a request that after the major websites raise funds, they should use most of the funds to develop the Chinese market, so that the major websites will advertise on TV stations one after another, or name various variety shows; e-commerce websites will launch a large number of subsidies. Stimulate Chinese users to shop online; invest in network infrastructure to improve users' online experience...

Zhao Ye hopes that through this way of burning money, China's Internet will develop rapidly.

Anyway, the money belongs to foreign investment companies, so it doesn't hurt at all to spend it.

If all the money is burned, then start a second round of financing, or go public through an IPO to continue to steal foreigners' money.

Since May, the development of the domestic Internet has entered the fast lane.

The Internet began to spread across the country, more and more consumers began to shop online, the e-commerce economy became increasingly prosperous, and the entire industry chain developed.

Tens of thousands of domestic enterprises have started foreign trade through the Alibaba website, and the scale is growing day by day.

In order to expand its popularity, Alibaba has spared no expense in advertising on TV stations.

"Alibaba website makes it easy to do business anywhere in the world!"

“Companies around the world are on Alibaba, seize opportunities and realize their dreams!”

"In the past, there was no way to do foreign trade business; now, to do foreign trade business, you only need to log in to Alibaba!"

"Create infinite possibilities and create a better life!"

In the previous life, Alibaba failed in its internationalization, but in this life, Alibaba has almost monopolized the global B2B market and has a very large influence.

Chinese companies can really cooperate with companies from all over the world on the Alibaba website.

The production cost of Chinese goods is low, and the quality and price are cheap, which is exactly what other countries need.

Alibaba's trading volume is rising like a rocket.

China's major ports have become extremely prosperous, and cargo ships have left the port. In June, China's export trade soared by 6%, shocking both at home and abroad!

Foreign economists are shocked. The growth of China's export trade is so amazing.

According to this speed of development, China's economy will soon be close to that of the United States!

Recently, Marcus Charlie, the host of foreign BBS documentaries, sighed directly and excitedly on the program: "China, an ancient civilized country, is rising at an incredible speed!!! Oh, no, to be precise, it should be It is revival! For thousands of years, China has been the most powerful country in the world, and its decline is only in those 100 years! When the Chinese lion wakes up, the whole world will tremble! Now, this male The lion has woken up!!!”

China in this life has indeed become very powerful during this period. Not only did its GDP reach about 5.8 trillion U.S. dollars last year, but it is also ahead of the United States in many technological fields.

U.S. technology has been cut off by the Wujiang Group, and its development speed is far slower than in the previous life. Last year, the GDP was only about 6.6 trillion US dollars.

The GDP gap between China and the United States has become smaller and smaller.

It is hard to believe that the United States in this life has lost to China in the fields of computers, the Internet, wireless communications and networks, and even semiconductors.

In other fields, the United States has also been quickly caught up by China.

One ebbs and another, the United States probably still far surpasses China in terms of military power.And economically, it will be caught up by China within a year or two.

In fact, in the previous life, Japan’s GDP reached 1995 trillion U.S. dollars in 5.55, and the United States was only more than 7 trillion U.S. dollars. The gap between the two is not big. However, Japan’s economic recession and subsequent GDP plummeted. By 2022, GDP It is only 4.23 trillion U.S. dollars, while the GDP of the United States is 21 trillion U.S. dollars, a huge gap.

But China is not Japan, and there is still huge potential for China's economic growth.

As long as China still maintains its leading edge in technology, it will be a breeze for China to surpass the United States in GDP.

……

……

Right now, the development speed of China's e-commerce is quite satisfactory to Zhao Ye.

E-commerce burns money, and miracles can happen!

However, the logistics industry has not kept up, and the delivery speed is slow, which affects the user experience.

China is vigorously building expressways, and Wujiang Group has also invested heavily in expressways. Therefore, traffic conditions have been improved and become more and more convenient.

"Mr. Zhao, in order to cope with the rapid development of e-commerce, we plan to start the construction of modern intelligent storage and logistics centers across the country, and set up logistics outlets in every city and most towns, with a total investment of no less than 600 billion yuan!"

"The Tiangong Mercedes-Benz factory has been completed some time ago and is currently in the mass production stage. Our team wants to order 5600 Mercedes-Benz trucks. Among them, 5000 Mercedes-Benz light trucks and 600 Mercedes-Benz heavy-duty trucks."

"Currently, there are more than 5600 trainees in the Huolala driver training bases we have set up all over the country. When the Mercedes-Benz trucks are produced, they can start working immediately. There are 663 cities in China and 41636 township administrative units. We There is still a shortage of manpower, and the driver training base is still recruiting students..."

"In addition, our Huo Lala company is also planning to develop air cargo. I hope Yinhe Technology can design and produce transport aircraft!"

Huolala CEO Hou Tianyu is reporting to Zhao Ye at this time.
