The city's number one tycoon - Chapter 515
After leaving the rice noodle shop, Ma Yunteng found a place to eat something and then returned to Northumberland III.
The next morning, in Ma Yunteng's office.
"Is the network completed?" Ma Yunteng asked. Yesterday, only the platform was released. The supersonic drone logistics system will be released today, but before the logistics system can be released, it must be connected with the commercial satellite companies in the United States.
Because China's navigation systems generally do not provide commercial services.
However, these drones require a navigation system to support them, so to solve the immediate problem, Ma Yunteng chose to cooperate with a commercial satellite company in the United States.
Because Ma Yunteng required them to position each drone with an accuracy of within one meter.
This positioning requirement is very high, so the service requirements are also very high. The other party directly asked Ma Yunteng for 10 billion yuan per year.
"It's done, but I feel like their service fee is too high, 10 billion a year! That's fucking outrageous!" Zhao Peng said angrily, but he knew very well that even if they wanted 20 billion a year, Ma Yunteng would have to agree without question!
After all, the technology is in their hands.
"Okay, let's use it temporarily! If it doesn't work, we'll build our own navigation system!" Ma Yunteng said casually.
Build your own navigation system?
Zhao Peng swallowed hard, looking at Ma Yunteng in disbelief: "Brother Teng, a navigation system isn't something you can just build like that! It requires satellites!"
The core of a navigation system is the satellites launched into space, and in order to achieve accurate positioning, many satellites must be launched.
"Then let's build a few satellites and launch them into the sky! It's not that difficult!" Ma Yunteng chuckled. If it weren't for the urgency, he really did intend to launch satellites to establish our own navigation system. "Alright, go hold the press conference! Remember to explain our advantages to the reporters! Nationwide delivery within three hours, and within half an hour between cities! Go!"
"Okay!"
After Zhao Peng left the office, he walked into the conference room, where countless reporters were already waiting. Although they didn't know what the press conference would be about, they all felt that there would definitely be something shocking to them.
After Zhao Peng entered the conference room, he didn't say much!
She stood confidently in the center of the stage, holding the introductory materials she had prepared and began to read.
"Nationwide delivery within one hour, and delivery within half an hour within the same city!"
As soon as Zhao Peng uttered those words, the reporters gasped in astonishment. This was unbelievable! Yunteng Logistics could be this fast? Even the fastest SF Express takes at least two days to deliver nationwide! But Yunteng Logistics could deliver within three hours!
The news quickly spread online.
Everyone who saw this news was shocked!
"My God! How can logistics be this fast?!"
"My goodness! A total of 150,000 drones of all sizes! Ali Kaka is really rolling in money!"
"It's unimaginable how much money Jack Ma has! His platform delivers 500 million yuan every day, and now he's built such an amazing Yunteng Logistics! This is going to bankrupt a lot of logistics companies across the country!"
"Who can blame them for having so much money! I'd believe it even if this guy named Ma Yunteng delivered packages by rocket!"
"Ma Yunteng is really handsome!"
News about Yunteng Logistics spread like wildfire across China!
Inside Taobao's company, Boss Tao's face instantly darkened upon seeing this news!
"Damn it!" Taobao Bao roared to the sky. Yesterday he was secretly pleased that no logistics company had partnered with Alibaba, but this morning he saw this news! He had to admit that he had underestimated Jack Ma once again!
It's important to know that the logistics company using unmanned delivery wasn't actually Alibaba's Kaka; JD.com started working on it two years ago! However, due to the high costs and immature technology, JD.com's drone logistics system didn't even have a basic prototype!
Looking at online reports, Yunteng Logistics actually owns 150,000 drones of various sizes!
The most impressive thing is that these drones can cruise at supersonic speeds! Even transporting a bunch of bananas from Hainan Island to Heilongjiang would only take two or three days!
Those customers who saw this message immediately chose to shop on AliKaka. Combined with their previous purchases, it's safe to say that any random person spent more than a thousand yuan on AliKaka!
Ali Kaka's transaction volume has reached one billion in just half a day!
How much transaction volume does Taobao handle in a single day during Singles' Day?
"Boss, this is terrible! Traffic is plummeting. If we follow the trend, today's sales might not even reach 100 million..." A junior staff member rushed into the office to report the situation.
"It's over..." Taobao Bao slumped into his chair, as if he could hear the words Ma Yunteng had said to him at the dinner party with the wealthy!
We'll take down his Taobao account within a month!
If things continue as they are, it won't even take a month, maybe not even a week, before Taobao collapses! Not only that, but Pinduoduo and JD.com's transaction volumes have also been severely impacted!
Throughout China, Yunteng Logistics' drones are like sharp swords, speeding across the skies above cities. No matter where you are, as long as you place an order, it will arrive within half an hour!
Reports about Yunteng Logistics and Ali Kaka have dominated the front pages of major news outlets!
Two days have passed in the blink of an eye!
Calorie Company held another meeting, attended by all senior executives. The meeting's purpose was simple: to distribute money! This was because Ma Yunteng was extremely satisfied with the company's current achievements!
Bang!
The office of Taobaobao was suddenly kicked open, and a member of the Mitsui Group walked in with a heavy expression. After glancing at the listless Boss Tao, Mitsui Ichiro said in a deep voice, "I'm here today to tell you that our Mitsui Group is officially withdrawing its shares from Taobaobao starting tomorrow!"
After saying this, Mitsui Ichiro, without waiting for Taobao's reaction, stormed out of the door. A secretary beside him whispered, "Mr. Ichiro, are we just going to give up like this?"
"Let's go, I'll show that Ma Yunteng what happens when you mess with the Mitsui Group!" A sinister glint appeared on Mitsui Ichiro's lips.
