Because the specific matter has not been determined, it is difficult for both parties to discuss the issue of stock investment for the time being.

After a few brief words, Li Dong consulted Li Zexiang about some artificial intelligence issues.

However, Li Zexiang's main focus is on the field of robots. Although he has a high understanding of artificial intelligence, he does not explain some specific applications thoroughly.

Li Dong had a rough understanding of it and did not discuss it in depth.

Li Zexiang mentioned that robots replace labor, accelerate efficiency and reduce labor costs, and hopes that Li Dong can consider investing in some.

He now has his own team and leads many students to do robot research and development.

Unfortunately, Li Dong did not agree in the end.

It’s not that Li Dong is really not optimistic about these things, but he also has his own considerations.

Investment in drones is because it can be used immediately and can increase the overall competitiveness of the distance.

As for robots, there is not much need at present.

Not only does the investment be too much, but there is no actual efficiency improvement and cost reduction.

As for competitiveness, there is no added value.

Moreover, Li Dong still needs manpower to support him in completing all foundation construction. Even if the robot can be used in a distance, he may not accept it.

Solving excess human resources is a treasure in the whole world.

Although drones have also replaced manpower, Li Dong only needs coverage in remote areas. These areas are still blank, so there will be no other impact.

...

Wang Tao and the others were the last wave of guests Li Dong came to Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

As for that guy Cheng Ping, Li Dong didn't see him.

Of course, he didn't know that the other party was coming to find him. Anyway, after knowing that Wang Wei was coming, Cheng Ping ran away and didn't know where to huddle to make the plan to impress Li Donglai.

On the 18th, after meeting the last guest, Li Dong began to prepare for the return trip.

As soon as Bai Su packed up his things, Ma Huateng called.

After the phone call, Ma Huateng said, "You can talk about the patting matter."

...

10 pm.

Hotel cafe.

Ma Huateng looked around and said for a while: "I thought you would choose a bar."

Li Dong laughed and said, "Am I so unreliable? It's so noisy, it's still quiet here, so you can talk about it in detail."

"Paipai.com can be sold to the distant places, but it is just a platform. We have no right to make requests from merchants and cannot do it.

Also, Tencent will not open the traffic entrance!"

Li Dong frowned and said, "If the traffic entrance is not opened, how valuable is your Paipai.com?

It's just a platform, I want to build it myself, one, two, three things.

Most of your users choose Paipai based on QQ. Without the support of QQ traffic portal, Paipai's existence is almost worthless."

Ma Huateng said calmly: "I can't provide firepower support to competitors. Actually, I know your thoughts. No matter whether you target Taobao first or not, QQ will be your target sooner or later.

At this moment, I will not open our platform and give you another chance to grow bigger.

But I didn’t just cut off all possibilities. During the Paipai integration period, we will still open the platform entrance to you.

Of course, this is a limited period of time. Within half a year, you will do a good job in the migration.

If you agree, then we can talk. If you don’t agree, then there is no need to continue talking.”

Li Dong snorted: "Half a year? How to integrate half a year?

At least one year!

Within one year, you will open the entrance to us. Don’t worry, I will not take advantage of you. On the QQ platform, you only need to open 2 platforms. I will not force you to open the entrance to the distant mall to us.

If there isn't a year, there is no need for Paipai.com to acquire it or not."

Ma Huateng pondered for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Yes, it's a limit for one year.

Then we can have a deeper discussion, about Yuanfang Mall Co., Ltd...."

Li Dong said in surprise: "Are you thinking too much?"

You don’t open the mall entrance to me, and you still want to talk to me about the shares?

Why did Yuanfang Mall introduce Tencent? It is your entrance.

There is nothing like this. Why do I introduce you? There are so many companies I can introduce, and who is not more suitable than you!

Brother Ma, we both understand people. If I don’t treat you as a fool, don’t treat me as a fool.

You said yourself, is it appropriate to talk about this?"

Ma Huateng frowned and said, "Since there is no such premise, why should I sell Paipai.com?

As you said, can't I find other partners?

Isn't there anything more suitable than you?

Also, I don’t have to sell it.”

Li Dong smiled and said, "So, cooperation still requires sincerity.

I will give you the mall shares and you will open the entrance to me. Wouldn’t it be perfect?

To be honest, qq is now limited in competitiveness and limited in traffic.

I admit that your user stickiness is very high and you are still the first in real-time communications.

But there are many users who overlap with both of us, and there are also many customers who use both software at the same time.

Your attraction to us lies in the part that does not overlap, and among those users, those who choose to buy online are even smaller.

And those who shop online through the QQ entrance are even smaller of the small part.

Last year, your Paipai's total performance was only about 15 billion, which was almost 10% of Taobao, which was even lower than the 2 performance of Yuanfang Mall.

Even if you are even better this year and your performance has increased, even if all of them are converted into distant performance, can you have 20 billion?

This is a 2 platform, not a b2 self-operated business, is it more than 20 billion?

Only when you open the entrance to Yuanfang Mall and our performance may increase to a certain extent will we have the value of cooperation.

Otherwise, the value of cooperation is limited.

At this time, you still hope that the shares of Yuanfang Mall, Brother Ma, it’s not me who attacks you. Instead of doing this, I might as well acquire the former e-commerce overlord, now t eBay.”

Ma Huateng looked at him for a while, and then said for a while: "Then there is nothing to talk about."

Li Dong nodded and said, "It's true that there is nothing to talk about. Of course, if you are willing to sell it, I am willing to accept it and make a cash transaction."

As for the shares of Yuanfang Mall, there is no need to continue to negotiate."

Ma Huateng took a deep breath and asked, "How much are you willing to pay?"

"With the QQ platform support, Paipai is worth 1 billion, but no, 500 million is the most important thing."

"In your words, Taobao is only worth 5 billion?"

Li Dong frowned and said, "It's all people who understand, changing concepts is boring.

Is the gap between about 150 billion and 15 billion a tenfold?

This is a gap of more than a hundred times!

Do you think the instant messaging software with a user base of 3 million is only a hundred times different from QQ?

I can buy an instant messaging software with a user base of 3 million, and I can buy it with 10 million. Will you do it if you sell it to me with 1 billion in QQ?"

Ma Huateng laughed and said, "This is true. 500 million is not low, but you didn't suppress it too hard.

The key is that it would not be of much help to us if we did not have shares in Yuanfang Mall, selling Paipai.com alone.

Tencent can still take out 500 million.”

"I can't do anything about this. You just think about yourself, not about me?"

Will I do something that is not good for me?

Close the entrance, you can think of it!

In Business and Business, although we are competitors, the mall does not involve your business, so why bother?

If you are united, you will benefit both of you and me.

Do you think my growth in e-commerce will affect other directions?

I don't think so, but this is actually true.

Not to mention, it will be of great benefit to you when we connect to QQ in the Far-Fang Mall.
