"I divide the historical process of globalization into three periods.
From 1492 to 1800, it was Globalization 1.0, where power came from the country...
From 1800 to 2000, it was Globalization 2.0. The power came from multinational enterprises, and it was in two stages...
By 2000, starting from the millennium, we officially entered Globalization 3.0, where power comes from individuals, and individuals become the protagonists of globalization."
Lu Fei had no stage fright, he directly used the stage as a podium and strolled around. How he "fooled" Mizuki Kyoto University back then is how he is "fooling" today. From national globalization to personal globalization, he put "The World is Flat"
"'s" insights are integrated with what later generations saw and heard, with a clear context and self-consistent logic.
The whole place was silent and you could hear a pin drop.
Five minutes, ten minutes, time passed by, and the forum staff standing aside kept looking at their watches.
Finally, after fifteen minutes, the person in charge couldn't stand it anymore and immediately exchanged glances with the staff and said in a rather stern tone:
"What happened? You called people who were not important to the program to come on stage for no reason, disrupting all the arrangements!"
The staff shrank their heads, and no one dared to make a sound to offend the bad luck. They all looked at the dumbfounded host, and saw that he was alone and messy on the stage.
Who would have thought that an impromptu interview could be turned into a personal speech!
However, just as one of the staff members came on stage, a loud but clear voice came from the first row.
"Let him continue."
The speaker is Gu Chenyun.
Seeing this elder, the staff subconsciously stopped and acted stiffly. The person in charge looked embarrassed, bent down and ran over to explain. If he continued like this, he would have to replace the speech of one of the elders, no matter which one he replaced.
, they can’t afford to offend.
"He said it very well, let me give it to him." Liu Deying said grandly.
The person in charge at the scene breathed a sigh of relief. He wished that this speech would enhance the reputation of the forum. The world is flat, which is unheard of!
"The arena of the world has been leveled to the ground. In the past, gazelles woke up every morning and had to face African lions. Now they also have to face Asian tigers, jaguars, European wolves, and polar bears. They must run faster than their fastest.
You have to be quick, otherwise you will be eaten."
Lu Fei calculated the time in his mind and finally said: "The Internet is such a world of great competition. The strong will be strong and the weak will perish. The future market cannot be separated from the Internet. In the future, the service industry will need the Internet, and the manufacturing industry will need the Internet."
"Feigou.com has always had one thing that has remained unchanged since its establishment, 'goods connect the world.' The manufacturing industry in Bay Area is quite developed. Under a peaceful and stable situation, Feigou.com can fully serve as a bridge for cross-strait trade and develop cross-border trade."
E-commerce.”
After the words fell, under the light, there were crowds of people.
Lu Yun was speechless. What kind of e-commerce is cross-border e-commerce?
However, Lu Fei did not go into details, just like "If you want to know what happened next, please read the breakdown in the next chapter", leaving suspense. Although it was only briefly mentioned, it was enough to make people think.
Zu Wencui, Liu Deying and others stood up and applauded enthusiastically.
"Pah, pah, pah."
The applause gradually started, and the elders all stood up. How could the juniors not dare to disobey, so they started from the first row and gradually spread to the back rows.
The light rain turned into pouring rain, and finally a storm filled the hall.
After all, camps aside, cross-strait economic and trade, especially when it comes to a market as big as the mainland, is profitable, not shabby!
"This Lu Fei seems to be very difficult to deal with. How can you Ali Baba compete with Feigou.com?"
A few of the people who had promised to invest in Ali Baba had already wavered and looked at Cai Chongxin and Cai Chongxin.
Cai Chongxin felt bitter in his heart. Lu Fei had come early and late, but when he came to raise funds, he could have made a lot of money by relying on his network of contacts, the information gap between the two sides and Lu Yun's eloquence.
I can't hold it anymore.
Lu Yun gritted his teeth and said: "In the Internet age, the big ones are always big, the small ones are flexible, the big ones have big ways of living, and the small ones have small ways of living. Ah Li Baba will definitely be able to survive from childhood to adulthood."
“Can Ali Baba be like Feigou.com?”
One of the investors was very interested in cross-border e-commerce, and so were the other industrialists, asking a lot of sharp questions.
Lu Yun's head was covered with sweat, and he tried his best to justify his explanation. The more round it became, the more nonsense he got, and the more he talked, the more panicked he became, feeling extremely resentful in his heart:
Damn it, Lu Fei, what nonsense are you talking about? You are making things difficult for me!
……………
At the end of the speech, it was the question period.
Lu Fei answered the first two "The world is flat" questions, glanced at Lu Yun, and said deliberately: "The last question, I hope to answer, is about e-commerce."
Some of those at the bottom who raised their hands lowered their hands, but there were still some people, and one person near Luyun kept raising his hands, and was immediately called out for questions.
"Mr. Lu, Feigou.com is not the only e-commerce company in mainland China. I'm curious about what you think of the other competitors?"
Lu Feidao: "There are very few who can compete with us. Feigou.com needs to compete with the world's first-class e-commerce websites such as eBay and Amazon."
The man planned to invest in Ali Baba and asked: "Isn't it enough to be a rival?"
Lu Fei squinted his eyes, the opportunity was about to come!
"Ali Papa and Feigou.com are two different businesses. They are doing b2b foreign trade, while we are doing b2c and c2c. There is no conflict and there is no comparison. But I can say one thing, Ali Papa will never be able to do it for a long time.
.”
The investors attracted by Cai Chongxin immediately pricked up their ears.
"Ali Baba imitates the e-commerce model of foreign industrial products, which is not suitable for China's industrial market."
Lu Fei directly pointed out, "Ali Baba is about information display and transaction matching. Cross-border foreign trade transactions ultimately have to be done offline."
Hit the nail on the head and makes perfect sense!
Cai Chongxin was convinced that Ali Baba was planning global foreign trade, but encountered problems with customs and quality standards.
Lu Yun curled his lips, very unconvinced, and saw the questioner asked very cooperatively: "Then why can Feigou.com guarantee that you can do cross-border e-commerce?"
"Because what Feigou needs to do first is localized, limited to the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places."
Lu Fei said with passion, "Because we share the same roots, we can build an e-commerce system, just like eBay can easily enter the European market, but cannot enter Asia, for the same reason."
Then he talked lightly about Feigou.com's defeat of eBay, which eBay had invested in. In an instant, the audience exclaimed again.
surprise.
Surprised.
What a loud tone!
Everyone subconsciously didn't believe him and thought he was bragging to promote himself, but Zu Wencui stood up again and testified to this fact.
“Did Feigou.com really do it?”
Father Wu stared at his son-in-law, saw Cai Chongxin nodding reluctantly, and then looked at Lu Yun with complicated eyes.
I am not afraid of not knowing the goods, but I am afraid of comparing goods. This Lu Fei is too strong and this Lu Yun is too strong, and he is surrounded in all aspects, including his appearance.
With Zu Wencui's guarantee, everyone in the auditorium had no choice but to believe it.
Lu Yun anxiously told them that the Alimama they had developed was a C2C website that rivaled Feigou.com, but the investors' enthusiasm had cooled down. They re-examined their evaluation and were even more interested in investing in Feigou.com.
After the forum was completely over, Lu Fei immediately transformed from a pawn crossing the river to a jade-faced flying dragon. He was surrounded by Taiwanese business bosses, young audiences, and venture capital institutions, making it difficult for him to move even an inch.
People who had previously valued Ali Baba agreed to invest due to the favor of the Wu and Tsai families, but the amount was far lower than expected, from NT$200 million (US$3.3 million) to a sudden drop of NT$100 million.
"The current situation is very sensitive, and investments are handled in a low-key manner and through Xiangjiang's overseas private accounts."
Father Wu sighed, "Don't be too little, unless you can find strong leading investors like SoftBank and Goldman Sachs to give them confidence."
"Thank you, Dad." Cai Chongxin was grateful.
"Thank you Abe."
Lu Yun forced a smile and looked at Lu Fei who squeezed out of the crowd, feeling resentful and resentful. The reason why the results of the financing trip were greatly reduced was all because of you!
Why did I provoke this murderous star?
He couldn't help but think that Ah Li's mother had plagiarized someone else's website, and he felt guilty. God knew it, but few people knew about it. There was no way Lu Fei knew it, absolutely impossible!
