Chapter 54, International Taobao
Others were stunned and nodded. To do international Taobao business, language is indeed a very big problem. The six major languages commonly used in the international community are mainly English, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and Japanese, Arabic and other very important languages. Languages are a very big obstacle to international communication.
"How much has your instant translation software been achieved? If this software can be done well, its market value alone will be very huge," Jack Ma thought about it and asked.
Li Yanhong nodded and said, "It has been developed very comprehensively. It can translate web pages in any language into any language in less than a few seconds. The function of voice translation is also very powerful. Being able to identify most languages and translate them is definitely an indispensable part of international Taobao business."
Li Yanhong made up his mind to climb the giant ship of International Taobao no matter what. Whether its companies can take advantage of this is the key to the internationalization process. No matter how you make a living in China, you can only make a living in China. Only by trying out internationally can you know how much you are.
Jack Ma nodded and said, "That's OK, the international Taobao business needs to solve language problems. Poor communication is easy to cause problems."
When the others saw Jack Ma nodding, they silently agreed with Li Yanhong's joining. Liu Qingquan didn't care and was not very interested in this. However, if they wanted to play International Taobao, they obviously had their anti-gravity flying cars. They could get a piece of cake without spending any effort. A piece of cake that made countless people squeeze their heads and was anxious. This is the advantage of technology!
Everyone present got on the car, and the interests were consistent. The rest was to slowly fight against the number of shares they owned. Except for Liu Qingquan, everyone else wanted to compete for more shares. The international Taobao business would undoubtedly be a huge cake. Now it’s just beginning, every extra share will be a huge wealth in the future.
Jack Ma thought for a while and said, "It seems that there is still hope that things can be accomplished. With everyone's support, I think the possibility of success is more than half, and the remaining half depends on the opinions of those international giants. Everyone knows that my Alibaba Group is listed in the United States and I need to occupy 60% of the international Taobao business. Only with enough shares and enough interests can I impress the giants in the United States, and I have the confidence to motivate those people to increase their capital and break through barriers to various international countries!"
Jack Ma was about to leave the sixth floor shares. Although his sixth floor shares need to be distributed overseas to international giants, the number of shares that he had to leave was still unhappy for the people present.
Qian Duoduo thought for a while and said, "Jack Ma, don't be busy dividing shares first. You can talk about your general plan first, so that everyone present can have a clear number to see how much you can invest and how much benefits you can get."
"That's it~~" said others. Everyone was very nervous when it was related to their own interests.
Jack Ma thought for a moment and said, "The current market value of Alibaba is about 500 billion US dollars. This is just a pure Chinese market. If the national Taobao business is really developed in the future, it will be at least 10 times that of the Chinese market. So I am temporarily valuing it for 5 trillion US dollars. Let's talk about this first, probably there should be no problem, right?"
Others nodded after hearing this. If the international Taobao business can be carried out, there is no problem with the valuation of 5 trillion US dollars. It can even be said that the valuation is much lower, because many things are inertia. After everyone habitually fall in love with Taobao, it will be like a snowball and gradually grow bigger and bigger.
Jack Ma nodded and smiled and said, "Since everyone has no problem with such a valuation, then what is left is how to cut the cake. I am confident that I can convince Alibaba's major shareholders and international large conglomerates to increase their capital in Alibaba Group by at least 2 trillion US dollars. In addition, Alibaba's own operational management and various relationships between international giants account for 60%, which is not an exaggeration!"
Jack Ma's words made others silently, and they were silently calculating their own small abacus. You should know that if you open your mouth, you can take out 2 trillion US dollars. It is not easy to just take out 2 trillion US dollars because Jack Ma was confident to take out 2 trillion US dollars because of the US stock market and international giants. Other people's families and enterprises may have the assets of more than tens of trillion US dollars, but their assets are often in the form of fixed assets, and it is difficult to cash out such huge funds in a short period of time.
Even families with very strong business strength like the Rong family cannot afford to spend trillions of RMB in a short period of time, because selling fixed assets takes time, and concentrated selling of fixed assets can easily lead to depreciation. So no one can refute it now because Jack Ma said it, because other people don’t have too much cash in their pockets. If they don’t have money, they will not be confident, and if they don’t have the confidence, they will not be tough when they speak.
Everyone frowned, thinking and calculating in their hearts. Only Liu Qingquan was drinking tea heartlessly and leisurely. I have to say that these people really enjoy it. This tea alone is not simple, and the energy in Liu Qingquan's body was slowly caused by a slight fluctuation. If ordinary people drink it, they will definitely benefit a lot.
After a long time, Rong Zhengde thought about it and said, "I need to discuss with my family how much business investment is, but my Rong family will account for at least 10%. No matter how much investment or how much effort it needs to be, there is no problem. You can still get it by 500 billion US dollars."
Li Jiangping nodded and said, "The same is true for my Li family. I need to go back and discuss with the family. We have the same shareholding shareholding as the Rong family, 10%, and the investment may be less, but my Li family can use its assets to offset it, and the shares cannot be lost!" Li Jiangping said very firmly, and the shares cannot be lost. As for how many assets they have to pay, they will find a way to deal with it.
Qian Duoduo also nodded and said, "The same is true for my Qian family. 10% of the shares, assets are also cash and other assets, and raise 500 billion US dollars."
It can be seen from the words of the three of them that, not to mention anything else, just in terms of economic strength, the Rong family is the strongest, and can be taken out 500 billion US dollars. It can be seen that the huge wealth they hold, the financial strength of the Li family and the Qian family is relatively weak. Both of them know that their family cannot take out so much cash at once, and they need to sell or mortgage it to raise 500 billion US dollars of assets.
The three families cut off 30% of the shares at once, and with 60% of Jack Ma's side, only 10% of the shares remained, but there were also Liu Qingquan, Wang Wei, and Li Yanhong without saying anything. The three of them looked at me and I looked at you, and no one spoke first.
For Liu Qingquan, International Taobao does not have much significance. His own Qingquan technology only needs to make flying cars well, and a huge monopoly market is waiting for him to slowly ate it. This market is many times larger than International Taobao, which is enough to work hard. Moreover, Liu Qingquan is not greedy and just sticks to his business and continues to do it well. The reason why they have to bring themselves this time is simply because they value their anti-gravity flying cars. The price of flying cars is high now. If they don’t participate, they will spend all the trillions of dollars they can collect by buying flying cars.
To do global Taobao business, how many express flight cars will be needed? Take the national couriers in 2016 as an estimate. In 2016, there were more than 2 million couriers nationwide. Now, if you want to carry out global Taobao business, plus global timeliness, etc., the couriers needed must be at least 10 times. The 20 million couriers can only barely meet the market demand. How much is the value of 20 million flying cars? Based on the current 20 million RMB per car, it will cost at least 400 trillion RMB, and it will cost nearly 70 trillion US dollars to exchange it for US dollars.
Of course, the data cannot be calculated very much. Everyone cannot take the 20 million RMB Daqin Flying Car to deliver express delivery on Taobao. The other people's opinion should be that Liu Qingquan wants to develop low-priced flying cars specially used for Taobao, but no matter how they calculate, the remaining 10% stake is definitely not enough.
Although Liu Qingquan doesn't care about International Taobao, he is willing to make some concessions in this area to make good friends with these aristocratic families and giants, Liu Qingquan naturally won't do such a loss. Liu Qingquan thought for a while and said, "You only have 10% of the shares left by you. 500 billion US dollars can't buy many flying cars! Just relying on a flying car that is less than 200,000 yuan, it can far not meet the business needs of International Taobao!"
Qian Duoduo immediately retorted: "Qingquan, you are not kind anymore. Do you still want to calculate your flying car at a price of 20 million? If you calculate that way, tens of trillions are not enough!"
Liu Qingquan shook his head and said, "I am actually not very interested in international Taobao. It is also very good to do my own Qingquan Technology. However, I am very happy to take me to play. I am very grateful and am willing to be humble in some aspects and suffer a little loss. However, the number of express flight cars needed for global Taobao is definitely very large. Even if I calculate it at the lowest cost price, my investment is far more than 10%.
Wang Wei, who was standing by, nodded and said, "If you really do international Taobao, you will need more than 10 million express flying cars, and I think 10 million should be difficult to meet market demand."
Wang Wei is a courier business. He has detailed data on how many couriers there are in a year. What he says is absolutely no problem. 10 million courier cars are the most conservative estimates, because they can be transported to a place first and then picked up and delivered by ground transportation, but the demand for 10 million vehicles is definitely indispensable.
Liu Qingquan nodded after hearing this: "Once Wang is the one who is doing express delivery, I originally estimated that it would need at least 20 million vehicles. We calculated it based on Wang's 10 million vehicles. I calculated it at the lowest cost of 2 million RMB per vehicle, which is more than 20 trillion RMB, and it will be more than 3 trillion US dollars in US dollars. Even if I suffer a little, 10% of the shares are far from enough."
