Chapter 415 The tide rises

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 In the era of the decline of print media, negative news was mainly concentrated on the Internet. However, as major news media came to their senses, they have long since registered their own accounts on major social platforms on the Internet and published information.

"In the early morning of January 11, 2017, an Uber driver in Beijing caused a series of car accidents, causing three people to be injured and sent to the hospital. It is reported that the driver had been driving fatigued for 6 hours." - Economic Daily.

"The driver of Uber in the wilderness attempted to commit robbery. The witty stewardess escaped by chance. According to this newspaper's interview, Uber's safety protection for passengers is ineffective. Drivers can bypass its registration mechanism to register an account." - China Business News.

"Internet travel and the sharing economy have indeed brought convenience to our travels. However, we must be wary of the evil brought about by monopolies when the industry model undergoes drastic changes. In the era of taxis, drivers drive with certificates and are safe and controllable. Why on the Internet?

In the era of travel, what about the frequent occurrence of various negative news? Many of them involve passenger safety, which is worth pondering." - Southern Metropolis Daily.

In addition to these big media reporting negative news related to Uber, there are also a large number of self-media and studios without journalistic qualifications publishing opinions and articles on social media such as Portal, Weibo, Douyin, and Kuaishou.

Surprisingly, there are also opposing views: the two sides defended Uber, and the two sides quickly formed a hot spot of public opinion. And the usual measure of this type of hot news is the meager number of hot searches.

Listed in two days.





At about two o'clock in the afternoon on the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, Han Wenguang, the new president of Phoenix Fund, arrived by car at Meituan's headquarters in Beijing.

Later, he met Meituan CEO Wang Xing, a tycoon in the mobile Internet field, in his office.

After Meituan merged with Dianping, it basically took the lead in the group purchasing and food delivery fields.

Wang Xing is a slightly bald, middle-aged man. He started his business in the Internet field very early. He launched "Fanfou" and was hailed as China's Twitter. Of course, something happened to Fanfou later, and all user resources were sucked away by Sina Weibo.

He walked out from behind the desk and asked Han Wenguang to sit down, "Mr. Han, please." He leaned on the desk and said bluntly: "Mr. Han, regarding the investment request made by Phoenix Fund, we have decided after internal discussions

reject."

Phoenix Fund caused a turmoil in the Internet field last year and was famous. Therefore, when Han Wenguang came to see him, he still had to receive it.

Han Wenguang said tentatively: "Mr. Wang, do you think our Phoenix Fund's bid is not sincere enough?"

Wang Xingdao: "That's not the case. The problem is that we don't have urgent financing needs at the moment. In fact, Alibaba holds a lot of shares in our Meituan. They should be interested in taking action. If Phoenix Fund wants to, we can negotiate with them."

Han Wenguang felt a little uncomfortable hearing this. In the business community across the country, who doesn't know that Phoenix Fund and Alibaba had a falling out. He stood up and said, "Okay? Mr. Wang? I understand. I hope we can have a chance to cooperate next time."

"I will." Wang Xing shook hands with him and walked him to the door of the office with a faint smile. After Han Wenguang left, the smile disappeared.

The reason for their internal discussion of rejecting Phoenix Fund was very simple: Phoenix Fund was too strong? The introduction of such a shareholder was unpredictable.

However, the cooperation between Phoenix Pay and Meituan should be carried out. There is no shame in making money. And as a platform, they are the dominant party with the right to make decisions.





When Han Wenguang left Meituan's headquarters, the strange emotion in his heart finally faded away. He understood that he was despised. After thinking about it, he called Jing Gao.

When Jing Gao received the call, he was driving Chen Yujie to the high-speed rail station to pick up Li Mengwei, who was returning to the capital today.

Chen Yujie was sitting in the passenger seat, looking curiously at Jing Gaokai's hands-free mobile phone. Her thick winter coat could not hide her bright and beautiful face. She had been staying at school during the Spring Festival. She was accompanying her to pick up her friend Li Mengwei.

"Then you go talk to Baidu. Take off the food delivery business and let us produce local life content ourselves."

"Okay, Mr. Jing."

The sky was slightly gloomy. Looking from inside the Audi, the driveway was a little dark. Jing Gao held the steering wheel with one hand and explained, "Excuse me? It's about work."

Chen Yujie said in a clear voice: "It's okay." Her voice had a texture, clear and sweet? It was very nice to hear. This was the first time she had seen Jing Gao's state at work. Her previous contact with him as a lawyer did not count. She also had company.

It doesn't count that her dad had dinner with Jing Gao, that was a bit personal.

It seemed that the person opposite was quite afraid of him.

In fact, she had never felt the majesty of a "big boss" in Jing Gao. Although she knew Jing Gao's status from public information.

Jing Gao smiled slightly.

The car arrived at the high-speed rail station? Jing Gao parked the car in the parking lot and waited at the exit for more than ten minutes with Chen Yujie. Then he saw Weiwei dragging her suitcase and following the crowd out? Waving with one hand. She had already seen Jing Gao and Chen Yujie.

Chen Yujie.

"Weiwei!" Looking at the girl he missed standing in front of him, Jing Gao opened his arms.

Li Mengwei left the suitcase where it was, gave Chen Yujie a big hug, and said happily: "Yujie, I'm back." The two beautiful girls looked at the embarrassed Jing Gao next to them, holding each other's shoulders and giggling.

laugh it out.

Passengers on the roadside looked over one after another. The two young and beautiful girls were really a beautiful sight.

Weiwei probably did it on purpose. Jing Gao was not angry at all, he smiled and helped Weiwei push the suitcase, "Let's go."

We drove back to the courtyard talking and laughing all the way. Xiaohe asked the chef to prepare dinner early. The chef from Jinggao's "Yu Chu" Chinese restaurant went directly to the house to cook. A sumptuous dinner was delivered to the restaurant one after another.

Li Mengwei and Chen Yujie washed their hands and sat in the restaurant, chatting about the winter vacation.

Looking at the two girls who were so intimate, Jing Gao thought to himself: When did your friendship become so good? As soon as we sat down to eat, Jing Gao's call came.

"Weiwei, Chen Yujie, you guys eat first. I'll take a call." Jing Gao usually doesn't talk about work in front of Weiwei. It's not that he is taboo about the harem being involved in politics, but he doesn't want outside pressure to be transmitted to her.

Jinggao walked outside the restaurant and answered the phone. As Uber's negative news hit the hot topics, Uber's contacts with investment banks in the United States have stalled again, and the pace of listing has slowed down. Uber's large and small shareholders

They called Jing Gao one after another to inquire about the situation.

Of course, not everyone can call Jinggao. However, there are a lot of shareholders of Uber and Didi, adding up to about 60 companies. This does not include individual shareholders. There are always people who can call Jinggao.

A person who can speak well in front of Gao.

For example, President Wang of HNA, Wang Shitou of Vanke, Kang Wenfeng, an executive of CITIC Securities, Yun Hu of Poly Real Estate, Wei Xueer of OCT Group, Vice President of CICC, China Investment Corporation, and Pony Ma of Tencent.

"Mr. Jing, you don't have a big problem there, right?" Of course, Xiao Ma is not looking for Jing Gao for Tencent's investment in Uber. Tencent invests in the travel field. Before, it was to find a home for Tencent Maps, but now it is to arrange payment.

Entrance. He made this call purely to chat with Jing Gao. Previously, Jing Gao sold his face and let the leading company in the film and television industry, Huayi, go.

Jing Gao had just answered a phone call and his throat was still a little dry. He kept his tone relaxed and said, "It's not bad. There are so many online trolls now."

Xiao Ma, who spoke Mandarin with an accent, said with a smile: "Someone must be messing with you. You and Mr. Ren of Galaxy Group haven't talked to each other yet?"

He did know that Jing Gao and Ma Yun had a falling out. But after Uber merged with Didi, the two sides were on different tracks, so the friction was relatively hidden.

Jing Gao did not hide anything from Ma Xiao, "In the end, there will be a winner."

After chatting for a while, Jing Gao hung up the phone and breathed in the air-conditioning of early spring in the corridor. In fact, this was probably the suppression of Galaxy Group. He had not offended anyone recently. Jing Gao shook his head gently and walked into the restaurant.





At this time, nearly an hour had passed since dinner time. Li Mengwei and Chen Yujie looked out the window as Jing Gao continued to answer the phone, and they clearly felt that he seemed busier than last year.

Jing Gao walked into the restaurant and met the eyes of Li Mengwei and Chen Yujie looking at him. He sat at the dining table and rubbed his stomach, asking strangely: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with my face?"

Li Mengwei smiled softly, with tenderness, "No. Jing Xiaogao, come on!" She knew that Jing Gao was busy with work.

Chen Yujie said in a clear voice: "Come on!"

Jing Gao felt a little moved in his heart. The fatigue and the pressure from the Galaxy Group were all gone. He nodded and said, "Yes. I will do it."





Mainstream financial media reported, and self-media followed up. Uber's listing process was almost suspended. A wave of waves hit Uber.

On the morning of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, in a five-story building called "Feitian Building" in the Third Ring Road of Beijing, Ren He's nephew Wu Jie and Ren He's assistant Song Fa met in his office.

Ren He has long since faded out of the day-to-day operations of Galaxy Group. Even the position of chairman has been given to Watson concurrently. He himself carries the name of chairman of "Feitian Petroleum", a company that operates gas stations.

Of course, it actually serves Ren He personally. It is similar to the "Future Strategy Room" of the Samsung Consortium. It can also be said to be his "Shang Shu Desk". The instructions issued here will be implemented by the Galaxy Group headquarters and subordinate companies.

Ren He has been in poor health recently and has no choice. During the Chinese New Year this year, he walked around with his friends and drank some wine. Currently, he leaves all the specific operations for the Phoenix Group to Song Fa and his nephew Wu Jie.

When Song Fa came in, Wu Jie was on the phone with Song Yan, "Song Yan, don't worry. I will definitely avenge you this time! When you come back from the United States, we will drink together."

On the phone, Song Yangang, who was studying at New York University in the United States, told his friends that he had been "framed" by Jing Gao. At this time, he took a gentle breath and said, "Brother, thank you! Thank you! I'm waiting for your good news.

.”

Wu Jie hung up the phone, asked Song Fa to sit down, handed him a cigarette, sat on the sofa and smoked, and said: "Secretary Song, my second uncle said you can't send a beauty trap to Jing Gao, but I have an idea. Yes.

Regarding Liao Rong from Phoenix Film and Television. It is said that she has a lot of fun outside."

You can’t use male sex with women!

He knew very well that Song Fa would take the lead in deploying operations against the Phoenix Group. He mainly followed and learned. However, Song Fa was a very good person and took the initiative to come to him every time to communicate. He was ready to pick up scraps.

Song Fa hesitated for a moment. Liao Rong was Professor Zhao's ex-wife, but after thinking about it, he nodded, "Okay."
