When Su Zhen left Kroenke's ranch, he was shocked and couldn't calm down for a long time, but he was more excited. He now understood why Wal-Mart could become the world's number one retailer. Foresight is inseparable, and the harvest this time is indeed too great. "Tingting, can we hold birthday parties like this for you in the future?" On the way back, Su Zhen asked Tingting in the back seat while driving, because in the past, when Tingting celebrated her birthday, she usually It¡¯s a family gathering to have a meal together, not a party like Americans do, but when I saw it today, this kind of birthday party is also very good. The important thing is that the children have many friends to play with. "Okay, okay." After hearing this, Xiao Tingting also celebrated her birthday like this. She nodded happily like a chicken pecking at rice, although she had celebrated her birthday with her mother, brother and a lot of animals before. I'm very happy, but it's not fun to play with so many friends, so I'm very happy in my heart. "What did you talk about with the Walton family? Do you look very happy?" Lux on the side was so happy to see Su Zhen. Obviously, it couldn't be because it was a birthday party. The reason was probably because of her previous interactions with Walton. When Su Zhen was talking to the Walton family, she was playing with her two children, so she was not present. However, the Walton family is nothing like that in the United States, but neither was Su Zhen. Damn, is it necessary to be so happy? "Well, I have basically reached an agreement with Walton on a cooperation intention. If it succeeds, it will definitely have a great impact," Su Zhen said with a smile. "Oh? What and cooperation intentions? We don't seem to have anything to cooperate with them except agricultural companies, right?" Lux thought for a while and said. "No, no, no, it's not an agricultural company. It's Google." Su Zhen shook his head and said. Although his agricultural company has great potential in the future due to the emergence of new cattle breeds and new seeds, as far as the current agricultural company is concerned, it is still in the market. Not worthy of Wal-Mart's judgment. "Google?" Lux was shocked. One is a high-tech company and the other is a retail giant It seems that these two can't get in touch with each other. What can they do to cooperate? ¡°Walmart was preparing to enter the online retail industry and needed a technical support partner, so they chose Google,¡± Su Zhen explained. That¡¯s right. It¡¯s online retail. That is e-commerce. With the success of eBay and Amazon, two online retail companies, Wal-Mart, the world's largest physical retailer, has also begun to take aim at this big piece of cake. But the current situation is that eBay and Amazon have successfully occupied most of the market except China. Even in China. It also has a lot of market share and is very competitive. Although Wal-Mart is the world's retail giant. It attaches great importance to information technology and has a powerful terminal system and top-notch information database second only to the United States. However, it is only a retail company after all, not an IT company, so it is still somewhat weak in e-commerce related technologies. , the only thing that can be praised is its powerful and complete logistics system, but it is very difficult to break through the obstruction of eBay and Amazon with this alone, so it needs to find a partner that can provide it with technical support, and Their target of choice was Google. The reason for choosing Google is also very simple. Google not only has powerful R&D technology, but also because as the world¡¯s largest search engine, Google has a large number of customers. Therefore, if you cooperate with Google, you can save a lot of trouble in online promotion. and costs, and Google can also take the opportunity to enter the e-commerce field, which is definitely a win-win situation. "Then you agreed? How are you going to cooperate?" Lux asked, blinking her beautiful big eyes. "There is just a preliminary intention, and the cooperation method is also very simple. Both parties jointly invest in setting up a new company. Google will build the website and provide technical support, while Wal-Mart will provide warehousing and logistics support. It can be said that the product is a combination of traditional industries and technology. A win-win situation, but although I am the major shareholder of Google, I initially promised Larry and Sergey that I would not interfere in the management of the company without authorization, so whether we can really reach a cooperation depends on their opinions." Su Zhenyao He shook his head and said, but even though he said that, he believed that it would not be difficult to convince Larry and Sergey, because Google¡¯s future expansion policy involves the field of e-commerce, and in fact, in future generations, whether it is Google or Wal-Mart has indeed entered this field, but because in the original time and space, the two companies were competitors, fighting on their own, and had never cooperated. Although each had achieved some achievements in the field of e-commerce, they were unable to do so at all. To shake the leading position of Amazon and eBay, in fact, Wal-Mart has also extended an olive branch to Google. However, because Google¡¯s equity in the original space and time was extremely dispersed and controlled by major consortiums, even if managers such as Larry Page Even if the management is extremely moved, they cannot change the policy of the board of directors. But this life is different. Because of Su Zhen's participation, although Google is still listed, its equity is highly concentrated. As long as Su Zhen and Larry agree, they can completely decide the direction of Google. Therefore, in Su Zhen's view, this time The possibility of cooperation is very high, and once the cooperation is successful, it will definitely be disruptive to the current online retail industry, compared with technology? Even if Amazon and eBay are put together, it's impossible for them to be Google's rivals. How about product prices? Wal-Mart is notoriously low-priced in the world, so even if these two companies have the upper hand, they are definitely no match with the powerful combination of Google and Wal-Mart. "But don't you own a lot of stocks in eBay and Amazon?" Lux asked with her big eyes blinking. Although she usually rarely cares about Su Zhen's company, Su Zhen's investment company controls these two companies. We still know about the stock prices of these two companies, and it can be said that the stock prices of these two companies have been rising. Isn't Su Zhen afraid that the cooperation between Google and Walmart will cause the stock prices of these two companies to plummet? "Um wouldn't it be good if I sold it?" Su Zhen looked at Lacus speechlessly. This girl is usually quite smart, but why would she do this Lacus was stunned, yes, wouldn't it be good if she sold it Chapter The next day, Su Zhen flew directly from the ranch to Google's headquarters in Silicon Valley. "What do you think?" Su Zhen asked, looking at Google's other two major shareholders, Larry Page and Sergey, and CEO Eric Schmidt. "This plan is really amazing." After listening to Su Zhen's story, Larry Page said with some sluggishness. If this cooperation intention is really achieved, then there is no doubt that it will definitely subvert the existing e-commerce pattern. No matter in terms of resources, technology or funds, nothing can compare with Google + Walmart. And once the cooperation is successful, Google's technology and network customers + Wal-Mart's logistics terminal, it is conceivable that the effect obtained will definitely not be as simple as 1+1. By then, neither eBay nor Amazon will be able to pose a threat to their cooperation. . ¡°I think this plan is extremely beneficial to us, and I agree with this intention to cooperate,¡± Eric Schmidt was the first to express his stance. ¡°I also agree that online retail is already part of our future plans, but we have no experience in the retail industry. Cooperating with Wal-Mart is a good choice.¡± Sergey also nodded in agreement. ¡°I have no objection,¡± Larry Page nodded and said concisely. "Okay, since we don't have one, let's start negotiating with the Wal-Mart Group. It just so happens that my island resort in the South Pacific has been completed. I think it will be a good place for conversation. What do you think?" Su Zhen He said with a smile that as early as the beginning of the year, the construction of the two small islands was basically completed. However, Su Zhen had been relatively "busy" before so he had not had a chance to see them. Moreover, it is now summer in the northern hemisphere, while it is winter in the southern hemisphere. , the temperature on the tropical island will be milder, making it a good time for formal vacation and leisure.
