Chapter 1685 does not explain
At the end of June 2012, Alibaba 88 also quietly launched the mobile payment function. Jack Ma followed Tan Xiaotian's opinion and did not launch a lot of publicity. He imitated Xiaowei and initially only used it on his own Taobao.com and mall. Any customers who use mobile payment can enjoy random exemptions.
A few days later, Jingdong Mall announced that it would implement small and micro payments in Jingdong Mall.
In just one day, Weipinhui also followed Jingdong's footsteps and officially announced the introduction of Xiaowei Payment.
At the same time, shopping centers such as Intime and Sanjiang, invested by Alibaba 88, announced the introduction of Anbao Payment.
Both sides quietly promote mobile payment services, which did not cause any disturbances in society, but in the eyes of experts, they could see a different taste.
At that time, someone exclaimed that the competition between the two bigwigs had already begun, and the camps of both sides began to appear.
Since then, some people have begun to use words like Alibaba and Tiantan to refer to the camp of the two big bosses.
Some friends in the circle also care about the two of them. They once asked Tan Xiaotian in private if he had any grudges with Jack Ma?
Every time I chatted with a smile, I would answer, "It's just a competition at work, and it doesn't hurt personal feelings."
Although he said it easily, few people believed it.
Seeing that both of you are about to be red-eyed, and not hurt your personal relationship, who would believe it! ******* In early July, Rong Zimin came to Beijing.
He was also more concerned about Tan Xiaotian and Jack Ma. As soon as he arrived in Yanjing, he called Tan Xiaotian to Xishan, and Secretary Zhang was also very concerned about the competition arising from mobile payments.
Tan Xiaotian is still the same rhetoric. He and Jack Ma are still in the past relationship when he is normal in his work.
But it is obvious that Rong Zimin and Secretary Zhang did not believe it either.
But it doesn't matter, this is what Tan Xiaotian wants.
He judged from Secretary Zhang's subtle expression that he was both worried and relieved.
Nowadays, several emerging IT forces in China are rising, including Alibaba, Ferry, Fujixin, and his own Tiantan. They are happy to see the booming development of the national industry, but they never want to see the scene of one dominant one.
Therefore, the situation above is the most popular situation to see in creating benign and controllable competition among these major forces.
Tan Xiaotian chatted with them for a while. He keenly discovered that Rong Zimin and Secretary Zhang had something to say, so he stood up and said goodbye.
At night, he received another call from Rong Zimin.
"Xiaotian, come to my place."
In a simple sentence, Tan Xiaotian knew that Rong Zimin must have something important to come to him.
"good."
He changed into his clothes, spoke to Tan Mingyan and walked out.
"It's so late, you're going out again!"
Although Tan Mingyan basically doesn't care about Xiaotian's business, she still feels a little distressed and complains when she sees him like this.
"Mr. Rong has something to come to me, and I'll come back as soon as possible."
Tan Xiaotian turned around and hugged his wife.
Tan Mingyan's resentment, which was not much, was immediately dispelled by this hug.
"Yeah, come back early."
She hugged her husband hard.
Tan Xiaotian went out of the door, got in the car, and drove out of the city.
Rong Zimin also has several residences in Yanjing. If it is autumn, he will live in the courtyard house within the Second Ring Road. If it is summer or winter, he will usually live in a villa in the suburbs of Beijing.
There was little car at night, and Tan Xiaotian only took less than an hour to arrive at Rong Zimin's villa.
Rong Zimin's secretary had been waiting at the door. As soon as Tan Xiaotian's car stopped, he came up and opened the car door, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tan, please come in and ask, my boss has been waiting for you."
Tan Xiaotian walked into the room, Rong Zimin was wearing a sleeping suit and was sitting in the restaurant.
There was a wine pot and a few side dishes on the table, which seemed to be drinking by yourself.
He heard the sound of footsteps, looked up and saw Tan Xiaotian, and hurriedly waved, "Come here, have a drink with me."
"Mr. Rong is so interested!"
Tan Xiaotian sat next to him.
Rong Zimin picked up the wine pot and poured him a glass, and the wine turned out to be milky white.
"Is horse milk wine?"
Tan Xiaotian took a sip in confusion, and the taste was sweet and sour, and it turned out to be rice wine.
This rice wine is not high in terms of taste and tastes like a drink, so Rong Zimin drinks here by himself.
The two clashed with one cup.
Tan Xiaotian asked on his own initiative: "Mr. Rong, is there something wrong?"
During the past few years of interactions, Tan Xiaotian admired the old man very much. Gu Dao was kind-hearted and caring about his family and country. He must have encountered some difficulties if he could drink alone at night.
Rong Zimin's voice was low, "Hua Rong received a task..." He said this, his voice paused. Tan Xiaotian did not ask questions, but just waited quietly for Rong Zimin to finish speaking.
Since Mr. Rong called him over so late, he must have said half a word. He is most likely to want to attract him to invest in the oil field in Kazakhstan.
"To build a large port overseas, the total investment is about 10 billion US dollars."
Rong Zimin glanced at Tan Xiaotian, "This project has a large investment amount and a long construction cycle. I calculated it. It would take at least twenty years to recover the costs. Huarong invested too many projects in the past few years, and the funds were a little tight."
Tan Xiaotian immediately said: "How many gaps are there?
I can help figure out a solution.”
Rong Zimin patted his hand with relief, "Xiaotian, I read you right, I knew you would definitely help you, but this project, like what I just said, has a lot of uncertainty, and I don't plan to pull you in."
Rong Zimin is talking about the fact that port construction belongs to the field of infrastructure. There is no company in Tan Xiaotian's industry in this regard. In addition, the funds are recovered too slowly, and the construction location is overseas, and faces adverse factors such as local policy changes. Pulling Tan Xiaotian in is equivalent to cheating him.
“That’s what money is needed?
There is no problem with borrowing.”
Tan Xiaotian also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. In fact, he was unwilling to touch infrastructure projects like ports. In addition to being unfamiliar with the field, he did not like this kind of project with a strong political color from the bottom of his heart.
Rong Zimin shook his head, "I know you have money, but I don't want to borrow it. I have thought of a solution, you can listen."
"Last year Huarong took a prime location in the Yanjing CBD business district. It is currently under development. There is a location with the best location still in hand. I want to transfer it. Do you intend to take over?"
Tan Xiaotian also knew that Huarong spent 24 billion to acquire a commercial land in Yanjing last year, and that location was definitely the best location in Yanjing.
When Rong Zimin asked this, Tan Xiaotian was really moved.
However, he also knew that the price of land used in that area was extremely expensive, otherwise Rong Zimin would not have come up with this method to make up for the problem of insufficient funds.
"It's okay, I know there are many real estate properties in Yanjing, so I'll look for someone else to ask."
Rong Zimin hesitated when he saw Tan Xiaotian, and immediately changed his words.
Big bosses like them are very good at observing their expressions.
He had such a good relationship with Tan Xiaotian, so he didn't want him to make things difficult for such a thing.
However, only a big shot like Tan Xiaotian can take on the golden plot of land with a unit of one billion.
"Mr. Rong, you misunderstood. I just thought, if I buy this piece of land, what should I do?"
