When it rains in Shanghai, it rains in Shenzhen too.
Under the gloomy sky, fine raindrops continued to fall, and water splashed on the roadside. Although the morning light had not yet arrived, the sky slowly became brighter as time went by.
On the streets of Shenzhen City, many people who were rushing to work but did not check the weather forecast hurriedly ran downstairs, only to find that it was raining, so they all chose to take a taxi to work.
"Hello passengers, Biva Taxi is here to serve you wholeheartedly. Please sit in the back and fasten your seat belt."
"Hello passengers, Kuaishou welcomes you. We will serve you wholeheartedly. Please fasten your seat belt before departure."
Taxi-hailing users on the roadside were a little surprised, because they clearly felt that the response efficiency of the two software was more than doubled, and their expressions were full of surprise.
You know, they usually have to wait seven to eight minutes for a taxi, but now it's the peak time for taxis on rainy days, and they didn't expect that they could answer the call in five minutes.
The more careful people discovered that the cars they hit with Huahua did not come from Huahua, but from Kuaihua.
Or they take a taxi from Express, but the person who picks them up is Beep Express.
In addition, in some areas where it is difficult to hit a car, you can now hit the fastest one directly.
In some business areas controlled by BISHA, Kuaishuai's special cars are on call for them.
At this time, Cheng Wei was sitting in the cafe downstairs of the branch, watching the scene where the express train with the two logos on it drove into the rain curtain and stopped with double flashes, picked up the passengers and left quickly, and he couldn't help but raise his lips slightly. rise.
He likes rainy days very much, because the sound of rain can relieve his stress and open his mind more.
When he was working in the market in Kyoto and was suppressed by Uber's dimensionality reduction, he couldn't sleep in the hotel, so he would often go out on rainy days and bring a tent to the park to spend the night.
Business people are under greater pressure than ordinary people, and they probably have some quirks.
Cheng Wei sipped his coffee, still feeling as frivolous as in a dream.
To be honest, he really didn't expect that the communication between Kuaidi and Biahua would be so smooth.
With Lenovo hosting, a meal, a few glasses of wine, and a few hearty smiles, this seemingly whimsical thing turned out to be true.
He would not think that it was his charisma that conquered the two Mr. Ma, and the only explanation for such smooth communication should be that the major manufacturers are beginning to be wary of teaming up.
If a company can surpass BAT within five years, then give it another five years.
You know, Jiang Qin is only twenty-four years old and will be in his prime in five years. He might really be able to knock BAT off the altar.
Therefore, major manufacturers plan to conduct some small experiments on "encirclement and suppression" in the taxi market.
Uber is now shattered. Travis, a Yankee, has no arrogance now and relies solely on his own arrogance to hold on. He doesn't want to leave in such a disgraceful way.
But in fact, Uber has no power to fight back.
According to the business logic that follows, Didi will inevitably sink quickly after sending Travis back to the United States. Finally, it will meet Bibi and Kuaidi in the sinking market and defeat all opponents that stand in its way.
For major manufacturers, they just put together works that were already about to fail and try to see if they can create new sparks.
This is a low-cost trial, but it may open up unlimited possibilities for the future.
Cheng Wei was halfway through drinking his coffee when he suddenly received a call from his secretary: "Mr. Cheng, Mr. Liu and Mr. Chen are all here."
"Well, let's treat you well first. I'll be there in a minute. It'll take three minutes."
"clear."
Cheng Wei threw the cup in his hand into the trash can, opened his umbrella and walked out of the coffee shop, returning to the headquarters building.
At this time, Chen Chuanxing was sitting on the sofa, flipping through the brochures of Biva. Sitting next to him was Liu Qing, the eldest princess of Lenovo China, and the current CEO of Kuaidi and Biva.
Lenovo has made great efforts to promote the cooperation between Bibi and Kuaidi. The reason is that Liu Qing is very optimistic about this industry. Before that, she was the general manager of Goldman Sachs Group in Asia.
With allies, General Tian, and the mountains at their backs, this wave of Bibi and Kuai seemed to have the right time, place, and people.
The purpose of this meeting is to formulate a joint development plan between Biahua and Kuaidi.
"I suggest that Bibi and Kuai develop in both directions and continue to expand the market according to the original sinking plan to form a sinking circle and expand market share. In the third round, they will get the largest financing in the entire market."
Cheng Wei had already thought about the development route in his mind, and now he wanted to see the opinions of Chen Chuanxing and Liu Qing.
Chen Chuanxing nodded: "I agree with this view. If we continue to sink into the market and provide good services and updates at the same time, the growth trend of Bibi and Kuaidi will definitely be stable within two years."
"What about Didi?"
Liu Qing pulled her hair back and asked the two of them.
Cheng Wei and Chen Chuanxing looked at each other and saw the hesitation flickering in each other's eyes.
To be honest, even if Huahua and Kuai joined forces, they still didn't have the courage to face Didi head-on, so their first reaction was to avoid him as much as possible.
The market is still very big. If there is no need to fight, try not to fight in order to reduce losses and slow development. When the war is inevitable, I believe that Huahua and Kuaihua will already have enough chips.
As a result, the joint expansion of Kuaidi and Biahua quickly began, and the entire taxi-hailing market ushered in a period of rapid growth.
At the same time as the expansion plan began, the first joint venture between Alibaba and Tencent also attracted the enthusiastic attention of many capitals, such as Gaoling Capital, SoftBank China and Apple.
Even Travis from Uber came to Shencheng specifically to meet Cheng Wei.
The cooperation between Kuaidi and Huahua seems to be tipping the scales. The roles between Uber and Huahua have been reversed.
"Mr. Travis, tea or coffee?"
"Coffee, thank you."
Cheng Wei received him in his private apartment and had a pleasant conversation.
Travis's purpose is also very simple. He hopes to join the alliance and hold shares with Huabi in exchange for a part of the living space.
This foreign devil's outlook on the current situation is indeed good, and his ability to seize opportunities is even more outstanding.
Uber is now ruined, and it may be worthless if it continues. And because they are a foreign company, they are also going through pitfalls in the private car industry.
But Uber has an identity that is very valuable to Biaohua. He is the only lone wolf still fighting against Didi in Shanghai and Kyoto.
If the three parties join forces, Uber will contain Didi's main force at the front, and Bibi and Kuai will develop around the back, which will always be faster than one.
What moved Cheng Wei even more was the issue of power distribution.
According to the current development trend, Bibi and Kuaidi will officially merge before the third round of financing. There will always be one party between him and Chen Chuanxing who wants to retire behind the scenes. If Huahua and Uber can hold each other's equity, then Cheng Wei will be the real power holder. It's a done deal.
However, this kind of equity swap cooperation is quite troublesome to talk about. How much share to exchange is an endless tug-of-war.
In fact, Travis's requirements are not high, and it is Cheng Wei who really puts on the air.
Think about the meeting in Beijing last year. At that time, Travis looked at him like a country bumpkin and told him to surrender or die. Now that the situation has changed, it is normal for him to make some adjustments.
"When I met him back then, he was really arrogant and seemed to have a kind of discrimination against people of color in his bones."
"But now his expression is the same as when I first faced him."
"There is helplessness and unwillingness, there is anger but I can only endure it."
Cheng Wei murmured to himself silently, feeling secretly happy that a great revenge had been avenged, but he soon felt disappointed again, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Travis's resignation was not because they couldn't beat Beep, but because they couldn't beat Didi or the group.
In other words, it was not him but Jiang Qin who truly conquered this arrogant foreigner.
Cheng Wei leaned on the back of the sofa and looked at the ceiling. He couldn't help but think of Jiang Qin's presence that no one could ignore when he appeared at the Internet Conference.
At this time, Jiang Qin had already learned about the merger between Kuaidi and Huahua, but he was not surprised at all.
They had merged together to work for Uber in their previous lives, and this time they had a good reason to merge together to work for themselves, which was not surprising.
However, when he discovered that both Tencent and Alibaba seemed to care about him, Jiang Qin suddenly felt that he was the biggest villain in the story and would be the enemy of the whole world.
"Bibi and Kuaidi have been sinking into the market, and their current market share is already very high. I suggest they sink into the market quickly."
Ye Ziqing has been in group sharing for these years and has experienced the food delivery war and the payment war. He has grown a lot, but his temper is still a bit impatient.
After learning about the connection between Bibi and Kuaishou, she felt like she couldn't sit still. She came to Shanghai from Kyoto that night, planning to pursue the case.
Jiang Qin looked at her, pondered for a while and then said, "What if it's not two families, but three?"
"Three families?"
"Haven't you noticed that Uber has recently started to provide subsidies?"
Ye Ziqing was stunned for a moment: "Indeed, Uber's subsidy activities are back online this Wednesday. They already have nothing to worry about, so it is really strange to continue to burn money in the market."
Jiang Qin nodded: "Once we focus on the sinking market, whether to chase the fastest or to rush is the first problem to solve.
Whether Uber will make a comeback is another problem that needs to be solved. We cannot allocate so much manpower, material resources and funds."
“It’s still possible with Kuaishou and Huahua, but with Uber? Can these three companies really advance and retreat together?”
"They are not simply cooperating. They have exchanged equity. Before the next round of financing, they will conduct a final merger. At this stage, no matter what we do, part of the market will always be taken away by them."
Ye Ziqing took a deep breath: "This kind of merger competition also involves foreign-funded enterprises. Doesn't the Market Supervision Bureau care about it?"
Jiang Qin pinched his hands together and shook them twice: "Maybe the group really grew up too fast."
