"How are the merger negotiations between Alibaba-Dianping and Nomi Dianping going?"

Faced with the overwhelming threat, the uncle could only brace himself and was not prepared to give in. He put on a posture of fighting to the death with Mei Ya.

The mood is quite high.

The first thing to do is to promote the merger of Ali-Dianping and Nomi Dianping, so that it can compete with Qingcheng Group, a subsidiary of Sprout Group, in the local life services field.

"We are negotiating, but to be honest, the negotiation process is quite difficult." Ren Xiaoyao reported.

As Zhang Shuo predicted before, behind the merger of Ali Dianping and Nomi Dianping, the three giants Ali, Tengda, and Qiandu, who did not like each other, were forcibly merged together.

It would be surprising if the negotiations went smoothly.

First of all, in terms of equity allocation, Ali Dianping is wholly owned by Ali Group, while Nomi Dianping is jointly controlled by investment institutions such as Tenda, Qiandu and Scarlet Capital.

Once merged, given that the two companies are of comparable size, if there is a one-to-one share swap, then Ahri will definitely take control of the new company and become the largest shareholder of the new company.

Even the controlling shareholder.

To this end, both Tenda and Qiandu have clearly stated that they need to inject additional funds into the new company to balance the shares held by the three companies in the new company and ensure that the Ahri family is not dominated.

Then there is the naming of the new company.

What Ali means is to take the first two characters of the names of the two companies and name the new company Ali Nomi. This will also facilitate better acceptance by consumers and maintain the original brand value to the maximum extent.

But he was opposed by Tengda and Qiandu.

The reason is also very simple. With such a tendentious name like "Ali Nomi", it is easy for the outside world to leave the impression that the new company is still under the umbrella of Ali.

Of course Tengda and Qiandu are not willing.

These two points of controversy can once again prove how controlling Ahri is.

Even if they merge, they are still fighting Xiao Jiujiu.

The name of the new company is still a trivial matter. What really matters is the negotiation of what map navigation the new company should use, what payment software should be used, etc., which involve major interests of both parties.

That's even more of a mess.

Ahri, Tengda, and Qiandu, no one is willing to make concessions. The people involved in the negotiations are drooling and blushing every time they argue. They are just short of performing a full-scale martial arts show.

Negotiations also reached a deadlock.

"We can't just remain in a stalemate. Let's do this. In order to allow the negotiations to proceed smoothly, we can make some concessions appropriately without seeking control of the new company."

It was rare for the uncle to be generous, but he was forced to have no choice but to do so.

In the final analysis.

The main reason for the deadlock in the negotiations is Ahri's damn need for control.

As long as you make some concessions, it doesn't mean there is no progress.

"Boss, do your so-called concessions include the name of the new company, equity distribution, etc.?" As a subordinate, Ren Xiaoyao must ask clearly to avoid misunderstanding the boss's meaning.

That would be great fun.

"The new company does not need to have Ali in its name, and Tengda and Qiandu are also allowed to inject capital into the new company, but one thing is that the new company must give priority to using Zhifubao and must be ranked first in Caifutong. This is our bottom line."

The uncle is really willing to take the risk.

"Understood."

With the big boss's words, Ren Xiaoyao finally felt confident. With these two major concessions, Ahri had done his best, and subsequent negotiations should go much smoother.

"And one more thing."

The uncle thought over and over again and said in a deep voice: "Pin Xixi's success depends to a large extent on the deep cultivation of the sinking market. This is indeed a point that we have ignored before. In other words, it is a comprehensive brand development of Black Cat.

After the upgrade, we subconsciously gave up on such a sinking market and must be corrected."

I'll be a good boy!

It's really not easy for someone like me to admit his mistakes.

"In response to the sinking market, we can try to increase support for Juhuasuan and use Juhuasuan to compete with Pinxixi." Ren Xiaoyao is not an ordinary person, and he quickly proposed a solution.

Mobao itself started from the flea market, but as it grew bigger and bigger, it gradually forgot its original intention.

In this case, just regain your original intention.

"This is acceptable."

The uncle nodded happily, "If Jubao still can't push it forward, then Mo Bao will have to do it himself."

In a word.

Ahli will never do nothing for the fast-rising Pin Xixi.

"In addition to deeply cultivating the sinking market and filling the gaps, we must also strengthen the control of merchants. These merchants have made a lot of money with us. At critical moments, our stance must be firm. We cannot think about making money from both ends and trying to please both ends. I

So, you know what it means, right?" There was a deep meaning in the uncle's eyes.

"clear."

Ren Xiaoyao looked slightly stagnant and said hesitantly: "But, if you do this, will something happen?"

In August last year, Ahri sent a message to Baishi Express in order to prevent Moya from acquiring Baishi Express. As a result, he was sued by Moya for abusing its dominant market position.

Not long ago, Germination notified overseas semiconductor giant Gaotong for the same reason.

Ren Xiaoyao was really worried that if this matter was caught by Mei Ya and it made Mei Ya anxious, there might be another lawsuit.

"What trouble could happen?"

But the uncle is still as confident as ever, "This is normal business competition, who can say anything. If Pin Xixi really has the ability, he can learn from others, but he is afraid that he will not be able to learn from others."

"All right."

Although Ren Xiaoyao was still uneasy, he did not dare to refute.

I know the uncle is angry.

I thought it wouldn't be too late to discuss this matter in detail after the uncle's anger subsided.

There's no rush for this moment anyway.

The Double Eleven war has ended, and the next confrontation between the two sides will probably have to wait until next year.

"Boss, Ahri Dianping is really going to merge with Nomi Dianping. What will happen to Haode Map? I'm worried that Mei Ya will make a fuss about this matter." Ren Xiaoyao is still very shrewd.

Lu Qi could think of it, and so could Ren Xiaoyao.

"what is your opinion?"

The uncle also had a headache, and for the moment, he didn't have any good ideas.

"Can the new company also give consumers one more choice? For example, Qiandu Maps will be used by default, but consumers can also switch to Haode Maps in the settings if they wish."

Ren Xiaoyao's method is quite opportunistic.

"Can."

But the uncle nodded in approval, Ah Li needed it, and it was a reason that could be used to stop Mo Yao.

Just say you've been there.

But in this way, Ah Li and Mo Ya have completely broken up with each other.

"Boss, I'm worried that Weixin will not renew the contract with us after the three-year period expires." Ren Xiaoyao had obviously thought of this and had to take precautions.

"That's almost certain."

From the uncle's own perspective, he would not divert traffic to Ali anymore, but would hand Weixin's secondary e-commerce traffic entrance to its subsidiary Pinxixi Group.

"but……"

The uncle's eyes were deep, "Taking advantage of the merger of Ahri-Dianping and Nomi Dianping, we can take the opportunity to improve our relationship with Tenda. In the future, we may not be able to cooperate with Tenda in terms of traffic."

Although ICQ under Tenda is somewhat declining, it is more than enough to guide Ali.

"Cooperate with Tenda?"

Ren Xiaoyao was very surprised. As the uncle's direct descendant and the confidant of his confidants, he knew very well how much the uncle's hatred for Tengda was.

"Don't be so surprised."

But the uncle smiled and said, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."

"Before the emergence of Bu Ya, the reason why we were mortal enemies with Tenda was not because we disliked each other, but just to compete for dominance in China's Internet industry."

To put it bluntly, the eldest brother cannot tolerate the second brother.

"Now, seeing that Moya is about to dominate China Internet, why should we compete with Tenda? What's more, Tenda has taken the initiative to divest itself of its e-commerce business, so there will be no business conflicts between us."

"Since there is no longer conflict at the root, cooperation can naturally be achieved."

"The boss is grand, but I am superficial."

Ren Xiaoyao admired the uncle's mind and his realism.

I also realized how much pressure Pin Xixi’s strong rise has put on the uncle, and he even said that he would dominate the Chinese Internet.

In the past, I would have refused to admit it even to death.
