On November 12, it was still snowing heavily outside the house.
"As long as we can do it, we will do our best to satisfy it. Mr. Lu said that we must ensure that everyone has a share and achieve saturated feeding."
"There will definitely be difficulties here and there."
"But we have been actively overcoming it and trying our best to allocate materials and manpower. Although it will distract the energy, manpower and transportation capacity of Double Eleven, we think it is worth it. We would rather pay the liquidated damages for 'same-day delivery' and 'next-day delivery'.
Carry out the rescue to the end!”
On TV, Liu Edong was wearing ZTO’s little red hat and was accepting a special interview after the Double Eleven event.
"Hiss~"
Lu Fei was lying on the sofa with his upper body naked, and there were red blood marks on his shoulders, which were all caused by carrying heavy objects in the past two days.
"How is it? Does it still hurt?"
Gao Yuanyuan gently applied safflower oil on him.
Lu Fei shook his head, "It's just a little sore. I exerted too much force all at once and my muscles haven't recovered. It's not a big problem. I'll rest for a few days and it will get better gradually."
"If you feel uncomfortable, you must go to the hospital."
Gao Yuanyuan said distressedly, "You donated 100 million this time?" Hearing him hum, "Sister-in-law discussed with me whether Hantang would organize a charity party with the foundation and donate 100 million. I
If you think it’s okay, call on celebrities to donate.”
"100 million? It's not necessary, people from the entertainment industry..."
"What's wrong with the entertainment industry! Don't you think money is dirty?"
"I didn't say that."
Lu Fei stood up and said, "It's just that the entertainment industry donates a small amount of money and does a lot of things, and they are either cheating by saying whether to donate or not, or they are sitting on the unspoken rules of seniority ranking. The top people are worth one million, and they are ranked in order. The juniors are not allowed to surpass the seniors. No
Don’t be more famous than famous people. Donating 500,000 yuan is the same as donating 50 million yuan. This money is donated..."
"Bah, I don't do the Harper's Bazaar charity thing. I really donate! Whoever dares to cheat and hype, I will remember her forever!"
Gao Yuanyuan has prepared a small book, "Starting from the Han and Tang dynasties, the celebrities who have signed contracts have donated at least 500,000."
"President Gao is domineering. When the Han and Tang Dynasties went public, people also followed suit. They were decisive in killing and vigorous. Ouch~"
There was a hint of joking in Lu Fei's pleased tone.
Gao Yuanyuan pinched the flesh on his waist and said, "Huh, isn't it just because they were listed that Han and Tang's stocks made them tens of millions, even 100 million, hundreds of thousands, or even one million dollars?"
He said and handed the clothes to him, "Besides, they donated a lot, and I let them earn more. As for those people outside the Han and Tang Dynasties, they can donate as much as they want, but those who don't donate will still come, hum."
"Tsk tsk tsk."
Lu Fei smacked his lips and said, "You are so domineering."
Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes, "And according to the old rules, we will donate part of the profits from the box office of "33 Days of Love" to my sister-in-law's Noran Angel Fund, so that they can go to Northern Hebei for disaster relief."
"That's okay. Nuoran and Hantang will donate 100 million. If it's not enough, it will be made up from our fund."
Lu Fei wrapped himself in thick pajamas.
"It's definitely enough!"
Gao Yuanyuan is full of confidence. The final box office of "33 Days of Love" is expected to be around 500 million, and it will be released in Hong Kong next. It is an experimental chick film from the Han and Tang Dynasties, and it is a good start.
"Mimi has done a lot this year."
She walked to the bathroom, washed her hands, and said: "Try to see if you can get her a Baihua Best Actress, and sister Zeng Li. She should be able to win a Golden Horse Best Actress for "The Wind". In this case, there will only be one Academy Award left.
I can have a Grand Slam, but Hong Kong is so closed..."
"It's different now than before. They don't have the courage."
Lu Fei moved his numb arms.
Feigou.com was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in early December. Naturally, it has to go to its base in Hong Kong.
Then let the Hong Kong circle fall into the ground!
At this moment, the doorbell rang.
Xu Xin and Zhang Lei braved the snowy night to come here.
"Sit, sit."
Lu Fei invited them to sit down and poured two cups of hot tea.
I saw Liu Edong in the TV screen, using the platform of Yangma to pour out the bitter water, so that only the children who can cry will have milk to drink.
"The biggest problem we face at the moment is the logistics and transportation difficulties caused by snowstorms. It is also one of the most common reasons for e-commerce returns, but returns are by no means as simple as they appear."
“Across the entire industry chain, the return rate is closely related to the interests of material suppliers, platform providers, logistics companies, insurance companies, etc. We don’t want our partners to be injured due to logistics and natural disasters, so we have expanded the scale of our express delivery team.
"
"As for express delivery in the affected provinces and cities, we are also looking for ways to solve it. We hope everyone can understand..."
"Beep!"
Lu Fei picked up the remote control and turned the TV to mute.
"A Fei, during this year's Double Eleven, your turnover was more than 50 billion, and there were hundreds of millions of packages. Do you have time to process them?"
Xu Xin frowned, her worries were justified.
Feigou.com is currently in a critical period for listing. Any disturbance will affect the IPO. Once there are problems such as express delivery liquidation and high return rate, it will become a huge negative.
"I have asked Gaodong and Mr. Lai to take care of it."
Lu Fei smiled and said: "We have agreed with YTO, STO, Yunda, and SF Express that we will give priority to e-commerce packages from Feigou and Meituan. The postal service has also promised to do its best to cooperate within the scope of the principle."
"It would be great!"
Zhang Lei applauded that as long as hundreds of millions of e-commerce items can be digested in a timely manner, it can become capital and achievements to show off during the listing road show.
"This is the first, and there is the second."
Lu Fei stretched out two fingers and squinted his eyes.
The total transportation capacity of national logistics companies is limited.
If you can take care of this, you can't take care of that.
Nowadays, the top six logistics companies in the country are helping Feigou.com digest hundreds of millions of packages. Alibaba, Dangdang.com, and Amazon’s express delivery will naturally be looked down upon, or even delayed.
It is equivalent to the logistics link suppressing competitors in disguise.
Unfortunately, Ah Li Baba and Dang Dang Wang still can't counterattack.
Feigou.com can have its own self-operated Zhongtong that integrates land, sea and air.
"When you and Gaodong insisted on investing heavy assets in logistics, shareholders such as Barings and Goldman Sachs were opposed to it, and I was opposed to it. Now it seems that you are thinking in the long term. The future value of Zhongtong may not be lower than that of Feigou.com.
!You are right!”
Xu Xin took a sip of tea and couldn't help but sigh.
"In fact, ZTO mainly supports B2C business, and it really has little to do with the C2C business that is going to be listed this time."
Lu Fei showed a playful smile.
"You think it doesn't matter. It's enough that the investors who participated in the road show think it does. This Double Eleven, Feigou, Jingdong, Meituan, and ZTO all performed extremely well."
Zhang Lei deeply believed what Xu Xin said.
I can’t believe that the combined sales of Feigou and Jingdong during this year’s Double Eleven reached 700 million, plus Meituan’s 400 million, it was a direct hit of 200 million in one day.
This is equivalent to the sales of 5 Ali Baba.
"I don't even dare to predict what the market value will be on the day of listing." Xu Xin said with a smile, "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that when I invested in you, I only expected you to be among the top three e-commerce companies in the country.
I never imagined it could reach the scale it has today.”
"It's just a pity that Sister Xin is not in Baring now, so she may not be able to get the reward, and the advantage she gained from Baring will be in vain."
The corners of Lu Fei's mouth raised.
"I'll just pay the debt for you."
Xu Xin waved her hand, "After all, you stole NetEase's shares from Baring." Then he joked, "When we go to Hong Kong this time, will the Li family settle the score with you? Penguin shares worth tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, let you steal them from
Li Zekai succeeded in deceiving him."
"What kind of account is this? He has to thank us! My listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange this time is to save their financial industry in Hong Kong."
Lu Fei raised his hand and got to the point.
Before going public, Feigou.com will conduct a global road show.
In addition to Three Body, the four companies responsible for the IPO, Goldman Sachs, Sequoia, Deutsche Bank, and CICC, will cooperate. The first stop is set to be Xinjiapo, then Europe, the United States, and Xiangjiang is the final stop.
"Everything has been arranged, just waiting to set off tomorrow."
Xu Xin handed over the itinerary.
"How is it going in Europe?"
Lu Fei didn't look through it immediately.
"The short-selling fund we opened with Paulson holds a large number of short positions in Greek government bonds, euros, and European debt, and has accumulated CDS in Greece, Spain, Italy and other countries. Like Goldman Sachs, the guarantees are all from France and Germany.
bank."
Zhang Lei reported everything in detail.
Although China bought U.S. debt, it was still a drop in the bucket. At this time, the U.S. dollar index had fallen to a historical low, triggering the European debt crisis and becoming the last straw for the U.S. dollar.
The trigger was Greece.
Not only John Paulson and Mr. Lu, but also the wolves of Wall Street like Goldman Sachs, have long been ambushing on all fronts, waiting for the debt crisis to completely erupt, fully harvesting Greece, and fully encircling the euro. After all, Europe is fed by the United States and is waiting for disaster.
pig.
"Pay attention to confidentiality. John is responsible for all the public operations of the fund. We must not expose this short sale."
Lu Fei showed a wicked smile on his lips.
The short seller is John Paulson, what does it have to do with me?
Starting from the next day, the heavy snowfall weather basically ended.
Northern provinces have successively carried out disaster relief and self-rescue after snowfall. A flash of red flashed on the streets, and ZTO's courier boys were running around.
TV, newspapers, and the Internet all reported on Feigou.com’s astonishing sales of 200 million during Double Eleven.
It seems to be warming up Feigou.com’s listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
Not only on Weibo, forums, and Tieba, but also on Twitter, Facebook, Le, and Feigou.com, the hot searches remain high.
Especially the global listing roadshow.
Every time Lu Fei arrived at a stop, the city would be filled with uproar.
On the 13th, Bloomberg reported: "Feigou.com's IPO team may be the strongest in the world. Goldman Sachs, Sequoia, Deutsche Bank, and CICC jointly serve as the lead underwriters. They have equal status. They are not referring to any one or two among many large investment banks.
As the clear lead underwriting bank, the investment bank is completely led by Feigou.com.”
When Lu Fei and his team moved from Singapore to Europe, media from all over Europe were quickly shocked by the grand event of Feigou.com's road show, which reminded them of the Logic press conference that had received unprecedented response not long ago.
In just three days, the title changed again and again.
On the first day, China Land held a road show in Frankfurt.
The next day, Asia's richest man is about to arrive in Zurich, Switzerland.
On the third day, Qian Cheng’s London welcomed the mainland stock god.
Between the lines of the news, one or two reports about Ali Baba’s Double Eleven barely appeared from the cracks——
“Ali Papa’s 10th year of establishment, sales of tens of billions.”
"Hold the clouds and see the moonlight! 17 Hong Kong dollars! A year later, Ahli Baba's stock price has risen again, and the shadow of breaking the stock price is finally over."
When Lu Yun saw this news, he felt a little excited, but then related news popped up, "In the 8th Year of Double Eleven, Feigou's Development from 100 Million to 50 Billion."
I couldn't help but feel a little in my heart, and then I got angry:
Land thief! Traitor! Evil thief! Dog thief!
After cursing for a while, Cai Chongxin knocked on the door and hurriedly brought unexpected bad news——
Ali Baba has encountered a serious wave of returns!
Buy, buy, buy, it has become, return, return, return!
"What did you say! A wave of returns? Why?"
Lu Yun's eyes widened, "Why is this happening?"
"Partly because of the charity of Feigou.com, users canceled their orders with us and placed orders with them." Cai Chongxin sighed helplessly.
"How many days have passed!"
"Ahem, just now, Han and Tang announced that they will hold a celebrity donation charity gala tonight for the disaster-stricken cities in North China. The organizer is Gao Yuanyuan, and the co-organizer is Feigou.com."
"Damn Lu Fei! He even used it on women!"
Lu Yun suppressed his anger and squeezed out a voice from between his teeth: "How much is a part? Is it a lot?"
"Not much, only a small proportion."
Cai Chongxin said weakly: "The real bulk of returns lies in logistics. We guarantee 'return within 7 days without reason'. It has been five or six days now, but many users have not received the goods, or the merchants have not shipped the goods at all.
Just choose to return it.”
"As for the logistics issue, you have mentioned it before. We are not the first to contact Tiantian, STO, and YTO. We must deliver the goods on time within 7 days! Didn't they all agree!"
"It's one thing to say it, but another thing to do it."
"Could it be?!"
“But the actual situation is that they put two-thirds of their express delivery force into Feigou and Meituan, while we and platforms such as Dangdang, Amazon, and eBay only account for one-third. Especially in the north, this ratio may even be four.
One percent."
How dare you defy him?
Lu Yun was furious and slammed the table, "I want to hold their company responsible! I'm going to the post office to file a complaint against them!"
"You think without acquiescence, why would they dare to do this?"
There was a hint of fatigue in Cai Chongxin's words.
"It's just a tacit consent, not express. If there is no written instruction document, I will not accept it! You must be held accountable!"
Lu Yun was furious and called the people from the legal department.
But the result was beyond their expectation, because express companies such as STO and YTO, in the agreement with Aribabahe, only guaranteed delivery within 3 days in the same city and 7 days in other places, and most of the returns were basically
It’s only day 6 of being in a different place.
What's more important is that according to the terms, if the express delivery is delayed for too long due to some force majeure reasons and the customer refunds, the express company does not need to be responsible for this. What a coincidence -
Returns are concentrated in the disaster-stricken areas in the north.
"boom!"
Lu Yun punched the table hard, "Conspiracy! It's definitely a conspiracy! It's definitely designed by Lu Fei, the bastard! Those express delivery companies are working together with him to deceive us!"
"Alas~"
Cai Chongxin's face was full of depression, could this be retribution?
Back then, they united with many express delivery companies in an attempt to make Feigou.com explode on Double Eleven. Now the situation has changed, and Mr. Lu and Liu Edong are using the same routine to take revenge on Ali Baba.
What a sin!
"Look for me. You must find the basis for suing them from legal provisions." Lu Yun was anxious, "As for now, I will contact Yuantong and Shentong. Chongxin, you go to Tiantian and Debon and let them deal with it first.
For our e-commerce items, as for those purchased on the fly, we can delay them as long as possible, and we will pay the compensation!”
"this……"
Cai Chongxin nodded.
Watching them leave the office, Lu Yun paced distractedly, thinking about his words. At this moment, on the Weibo page displayed on the computer, a new topic popped up on the platform's hot search list——
# Double 11 return wave, Ahli Baba is the first to bear the brunt#
#阿利粑粑The express delivery is slow and the warehouse is suspected to be liquidated#
Can #阿利粑粑 keep the sales mark of 10 billion?#
The gap between #阿利粑粑 and Feigou.com: Zhongtong Logistics#
Topics one after another, just like planned ones, came overwhelmingly towards Ali Baba. Controversies broke out and public opinion fermented.
Soon, bad news spread from the mainland to Hong Kong.
The market opened in the afternoon, and Ali Baba, which had managed to climb to HK$17 at the close of the morning, immediately fell off a cliff.
Obviously, the pair are about to break serve again.
