Vol 5 Chapter 1209: 0 inquiries

"EBay China, we are planning to introduce other investment partners," said Whitman, who was on the verge of an outbreak, suddenly annoyed by Feng Yiping's words.

Feng Yiping was taken aback.

Whitman would tell him such undisclosed news at this time, and he was a little surprised, as it turned out to be an extraordinary character.

eBay China can be said to be one of the rare miserable projects she was in office. She told Feng Yiping this news that she obviously no longer intends to hide her failure.

This is really not an easy task for a person who loves his reputation extremely.

It is naturally extremely rare for a very arrogant person like Whitman to face his own mistakes calmly.

As she said these words, Feng Yiping was even more keenly aware that she was somewhat unnatural at first, and she could feel her angry Whitman. At this moment, it was very relaxed.

Desperately trying to conceal his mistakes, Whitman, who wants to maintain a consistent impression of success in front of Feng Yiping, is naturally weak and has too many points that can be attacked by Feng Yiping.

But when she admitted her failure, she was equivalent to becoming stronger again.

For example, now that Feng Yiping said something similar to the previous one, there would be no lethality to her.

Sure enough, there is no vanity under the reputation.

The reason why Feng Yiping irritated her so much before was indeed to make her angry and restless, but his purpose was not so shallow.

His purpose is such that Whitman, in the next seemingly small talk between the two of them, will definitely lose ground and let himself take advantage and take the initiative.

But since Whitman took the initiative to admit it, Feng Yiping's plans could be said to have failed.

You can adjust so quickly, perhaps because of your female intuition? Feng Yiping looked at her, "That would definitely be an excellent partner."

"I know very well that no matter how good a partner is, it is difficult for you and Jack to join the e-commerce group to do much," Whitman said lightly.

Of course, it must be hard for the outside world to imagine that the Queen of Silicon Valley, who has always been tough, would say such words to destroy her own prestige.

"Where, the market is so big, and how can we enjoy it alone? We welcome the entry of more powerful colleagues. Only when more people participate can this market prosper."

When he said this, he was also thinking about what Whitman said about the partners, which seemed to have some impressions, but from his point of view, the partner that eBay will introduce this time is not really strong.

Also, I'm afraid that only those companies that are unwilling to fail before will think about fighting again in the field of e-commerce, and letting out the other side of the sky.

But, hehe, it really made the wrong idea. To put it bluntly, the opponent it will encounter in the field of e-commerce this time, that is, its own e-commerce group, is stronger than its previous opponents. The presence.

Feng Yiping can now determine the result of his conspiracy. It is destined to be nothing but a fuss, and will not toss any fame.

"You must be clear that this result is also destined, from when I took the initiative, but you don't want to buy eBay China," Whitman said.

"You know how much damage like that has done to our China team," she sighed, "just like Yahoo China before."

This is true. A company that has been regressing in terms of its indicators and is already holding a sigh of relief. When it learns that it has been packaged and given away, no one wants it, especially when the person is still a well-known Feng Yiping. , I believe that there are not many people in the company team who will be motivated to work hard.

At that point, introducing new forces is still a very positive approach.

The same is true for Yahoo China. They are also looking for new partners. I heard that the conditions are quite favorable.

But since Feng Yiping had all been rejected before, none of the mainland Internet companies felt that this would be a missed opportunity, so the situation is very embarrassing now.

Still eBay had better luck and found such a special partner.

"How long do you plan to withdraw all in time?" Feng Yiping asked.

"Sure enough, I can't help you," Whitman glanced at him. "My plan is between half and one fiscal year at most. We can transfer the shares we hold at a relatively higher price. It can be regarded as regaining some losses,"

There is one more thing she didn't say, new partners, that will not lose interest in taking over.

But after a long time and market share shrinks, the partner may not want to be the receiver.

"Feng, there is one thing I have always wondered, whether you have always been very optimistic about Amazon instead of our eBay model," Whitman asked suddenly.

Feng Yiping glanced at her, and after admitting his failure, he really became stronger, and he turned from defense to offense.

"These are two models with their own advantages and disadvantages. The reason why it seems that I and Amazon are closer, I think, you know the reason, it is mainly because of the friendship between me and Bezos,"

Of course I am more optimistic about Amazon.

Whether it is product quality, shopping experience, delivery cycle, convenience of return... Amazon, let alone eBay, is much better than eBay, but later Ali is inferior.

Amazon can guarantee that Ali will make up for its shortcomings in logistics when the goods arrive within two days throughout the United States. Of course, Feng Yiping has made arrangements in advance for this shortcoming.

User reviews under Amazon products are rarely used for review, and most of them are relatively credible-this in fact mainly reflects Amazon's high requirements for sellers, and this is what Feng Yiping is currently doing in Jiasheng Mall.

There are returns, regardless of the reason; there is privacy protection; there is Bezos’ obsession with technology, such as the development of the popular kindle...

It was not without reason that Amazon's market value was so high, and it was not without reason that Bezos was so light-headed.

With so many advantages, how many can your eBay account for?

But why should I tell you these words?

Feng Yiping talked about the personal friendship with Bezos, and Whitman suddenly had nothing to say.

It seems that before this, there was no friendship between her and Feng Yiping, only conflicts, and they were all conflicts provoked by herself.

If you change to someone like this, you probably won't take the initiative to make friends with yourself and your company.

"Feng, I think you may not understand eBay's culture and values. We should be the high-tech company that respects users the most in the world. You see, we don't have many rules to restrict users' behavior."

"We believe in the power of human nature. We try our best to provide users with a trading platform and a more and more complete structure mechanism. We help users trading on our platform find the most suitable trading method for their own situation..."

"We almost single-handedly created a global second-hand commodity evaluation mechanism, creating an equal opportunity trading environment..."

"We have helped countless people to do their favorite jobs and achieve success, and sometimes even help people with disabilities to support themselves. What these people cannot do in the physical market, in the eBay online market, they have done—— Compete fairly with healthy people..."

Whitman talked about their values ​​and advantages in a big way, and Feng Yiping also nodded his head in sympathy.

It should be said that eBay's ability to achieve today's scale does have great practical significance. This is a platform that mainly relies on the consciousness of both parties to the transaction rather than the constraints of the platform to develop and grow.

They believe that human nature is inherently good, and they believe that you do not do to others what you do not want to do. With such a romantic concept, eBay has not developed into a platform where scammers get together, but has become the world’s number one e-commerce company. It is a very rare and full of positive energy.

Of course, its success is also related to the generally high level of credit construction in Western society, and the high cost of violations. On the other hand, in China, let alone some individual merchants, there are well-known platforms, including listed e-commerce fraud... …This is actually a system problem.

"But you still don't like eBay, right?" Whitman asked suddenly.

"Hehe," Feng Yiping smiled, "I think, if I say that I am very optimistic about eBay, do you have to get nervous again?"

"No, this is definitely not your real idea," Whitman looked at Feng Yiping, "Or, you have a very good idea about the development of PayPal, a good idea that can drastically change the current situation of PayPal, right?"

This, naturally there is, but the same, why should I tell you now?

"The reason why I favor paypal is indeed. I am optimistic about the prospects of online payment. I also think that the introduction of paypal can also promote the development of some of my current businesses. As you know, I am always unwilling to be used for profit. Take it away, so I have the idea of ​​investing in paypal,"

Combined with Feng Yiping's consistent disposition, this reason is actually justified.

But Whitman still didn't believe it, "No, Feng, I believe you must have a deeper reason ~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ You see, before, the relationship between us was really not so harmonious."

"But now and then, this time, we came with great sincerity. I also believe that we can become close partners soon. So, can we be more honest?"

"Presumably you also know that if you have my support, some of your plans will become reality faster,"

"I have really made it very clear, Ms. Whitman," Feng Yiping looked helpless.

My words are so good?

"I'm sorry, I think, their first meeting may take a long time. You don't have time to delay here anymore. It just so happens that I have another important meeting next."

Whitman, who had been calm, became annoyed again. Are you an order to evict guests? "I want to know, what is the important meeting?"

"In fact, it's nothing, just go to see Jobs with Page,"
