The city's number one tycoon - Chapter 514
The logistics system wasn't directly introduced to the public today, which made Jack Ma a little worried. He thought that once the logistics channels were fully networked tomorrow, Taobao would probably be terrified.
Meanwhile, in Taobao's office, several Japanese men stormed in aggressively, kicking the door open. None of the security guards standing around them dared to stop them, because they all knew the relationship between these men and the company. These men were from the Mitsui Group of Japan, and they only came during the annual shareholders' meeting. Every time they came, Taobao treated them with great courtesy.
Even the company's security guards knew that this group owned a significant number of shares in the company.
Rumors even suggest that without the covert support of the Mitsui Group from Japan, Taobao would not have achieved its current success.
Therefore, these people are always very arrogant and domineering whenever they come to their company.
However, today they came not only with arrogance, but with immense anger.
They are shareholders of the company, but today they discovered strangely that their stock had shrunk by 20%, and in just one afternoon, more than a billion dollars had suddenly evaporated!
Of course, the reason for this situation is Ali Kaka, which was just announced today.
"Boss Tao, shouldn't you explain this to me?" A Japanese man in a black suit standing at the front looked at Taobao with an unfriendly expression. The man who spoke was Mitsui Ichiro, one of the high-ranking members of the Mitsui Group, who was mainly responsible for the situation in China.
"Mr. Mitsui Ichiro, please give me some time! I promise to give you a reasonable answer!" Taobao was not angry because of the other party's rudeness. After all, the Mitsui Group currently has 10% of the shares in Ali Kaka. Although it is not a lot, it is one of the most important shareholders. If the other party withdraws its investment, then his platform will definitely face huge losses.
"snort!"
Mitsui Ichiro snorted coldly, his tone grim as he said, "Our Mitsui Group specializes in helping others establish companies all over the world. Any company we've invested in has never experienced a stock price drop! Yet today we've suffered a direct loss of over a billion in the Chinese market! You've truly disappointed the Mitsui Group!"
"Mr. Mitsui Ichiro, rest assured, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer. No one expected that Ali Kaka's traffic acquisition would be so successful this time. However, a newly established platform that wants to compete with us is still a bit short of experience!"
Taobao's eyes flashed with a sinister glint: "You know, for an e-commerce platform, the logistics system is extremely important! Although this newly established AliKaka has built a very good platform, as far as I know, they are completely unprepared in terms of logistics! And most of the logistics companies in China have cooperative relationships with me. With just one word from me, no one will cooperate with AliKaka! You must be tired after coming all this way. Please sit down. I have some top-quality Longjing tea here!"
Taobao simply waved to the secretary, and the beautiful female secretary quickly brought over three cups of already brewed Longjing tea to the three islanders.
Seeing that Taobao's attitude was still very serious, Mitsui Ichiro sighed and said, "It had better! I hope you can get rid of this Ali Kaka within three days, otherwise, we will have to handle this matter in our own way!"
Upon hearing Mitsui Ichiro's words, Taobao Bao's face immediately flashed with displeasure: "This is China, you can't act recklessly here, or you'll be punished by China!"
"Heh!" Mitsui Ichiro sneered, "My methods are too clever. Even if you Chinese investigate, you won't find anything!"
"Alright, alright, calm down. Also, please pass on a message to your brother, Mr. Mitsui Taro! Tell him not to worry, I will handle this matter properly!" Taobaobao said confidently.
"I hope so! Farewell!" Mitsui Ichiro didn't even drink his tea before slamming the door and leaving.
Watching the three people walk out of the office, Taobao Bao breathed a long sigh of relief, finally managing to stabilize the Mitsui Group.
"For an e-commerce company, the logistics system is of paramount importance. As long as I contact major logistics companies and offer them benefits, I can strangle Ali Kaka from the logistics system," Taobao Bao thought to himself. He then quickly summoned his secretary and instructed him to contact major logistics companies across China. He believed that, out of respect for him, those logistics companies would definitely be willing to refuse to cooperate with Ali Kaka.
Half an hour later.
A long-lost smile appeared on Taobao Bao's face. Since 3 p.m. today, his face had looked ashen, but now the situation was different. After half an hour of hard work, he had reached an agreement with several large logistics companies in China to distribute all of Taobao Bao's delivery orders to them in the future. His condition was that these companies would refuse to cooperate with Ali Kaka.
All the logistics companies readily agreed, as getting closer to Taobao was something every company desperately wanted.
At the Calorie Headquarters.
After explaining everything, Ma Yunteng went downstairs alone. Hearing the cheers of "Ma Yunteng is so handsome!" coming from all directions, Ma Yunteng wiped his nose and couldn't help but sigh, "What does it mean to become famous overnight? That's probably what they're talking about! I'll go have dinner first!"
Ma Yunteng was so busy today that he even forgot to eat.
So they walked forward, intending to find a restaurant to have a meal!
"Hmm? Yunteng Rice Noodles?"
Ma Yunteng had only taken a few steps when he noticed a rice noodle shop ahead called Yunteng Rice Noodles. Upon closer inspection, Ma Yunteng glanced at the sign and immediately laughed in exasperation. "Damn it," he thought, "this sign was clearly just put up! It's as new as it gets!"
"Boss, your store name is quite unique!" Ma Yunteng walked to the cashier and smiled slightly.
"Hehe, I just changed it this afternoon!" The boss was a woman who weighed about 200 pounds.
"Hey, I heard a lot of people saying how handsome Yun Teng is on the way home from get off work today. Is he really that handsome?" Ma Yun Teng's lips curled into a sly smile.
"Young man! You don't look like the type to shop online often! Do you know about a new e-commerce platform called AliKaka that just launched today?" the boss asked.
Ma Yunteng shook his head.
"This awesome platform was founded by Ma Yunteng! As long as you buy a few items on this platform and collect all five characters that say 'Ma Yunteng is so handsome,' you have a good chance of winning a cash reward of 10,000 yuan!" the boss said exaggeratedly.
"Wow, is it that amazing?!"

Chapter 387 Where is the Hidden Awl? [2 Updates]
"That's right!"
The boss looked at him very seriously: "Do you know how rich Ma Yunteng is? He's said to be the richest man in China this year! Compared to him, Tao is just a beggar, I'm telling you! His Alibaba gives away 500 million every day! Don't you think he's handsome?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Yunteng almost burst out laughing. It seems that spending 500 million yuan was not in vain!
With a slight upturn of his lips, Ma Yunteng suddenly smiled slyly: "Then do you think he's as handsome as me?"
The boss gave a wry smile, then cast a disdainful glance at him: "Heh, you want to compare yourself to Ma Yunteng? Young man, you'd better wake up! He gives away 500 million every day! And he's supposedly only in his early twenties. Ma Yunteng is really handsome... and that's not just empty talk!"
After saying this, the boss shook his head and clicked his tongue, saying, "I wonder where such a handsome man is hiding... Even a great beauty like me would want to marry him!"
"vomit!"
His gaze swept over her nearly 200-pound, bloated figure, and Ma Yunteng almost vomited his guts out. He then stormed out the door.
