Shanda's stake in Sina has replaced Sina two or three years ago as a new "martial artist" in the Chinese network industry ". Who will be the next "ally? Alibaba created by Jack Ma will be the most powerful Challenger! Whether it is business model, management team, or business income, Alibaba has the power to win the challenge.
        
Orders from six emails to ten billion
When Jack Ma talked about the Internet, he had to mention the trip to the United States by the end of 1994! At that time, Jack Ma was also the "Best Foreign Language man" in the city of Hangzhou. A Zhejiang company was cheated by an American company on the other side of the ocean and commissioned Jack Ma to go to the door for debt collection. There, Jack Ma first saw the internet. Curious Jack Ma asked his friends to make a webpage of his "Haibo translation agency" in Hangzhou, and "Haibo" became the first domestic company to access the Internet.
"No, I sent it at ten o'clock A.M. and received 6 business negotiation emails at noon. The United States, Germany, and Japan all have !" After many years, Jack Ma was still surprised to talk about this matter.
A few days later, Jack Ma came back to Hangzhou with a "486" computer at the highest end and a plan to help enterprises find businesses online. In the past year, Yang Zhiyuan just founded Yahoo, while Zhang Chaoyang has not returned home to start a business.
Most people who have traveled to Hangzhou know that there is a "Wanghu Hotel" on the edge of the West Lake, which is Jack Ma's earliest customer. "First, we collected the customer's information, sorted out the parcel to the United States, asked American friends to make the Internet, and then printed the webpage and sent it to the customer in China. At that time, no one in China could see the Internet, and no one would pay for it first. Only after receiving a Consulting phone or fax from abroad would they be skeptical about the payment ." This is the operation of Haibo network, Jack Ma's first Internet company. The product is called "Chinese yellow pages" and is a confusing name. In July 1995, the Internet leased line was opened in Shanghai, and Ma Yun was able to access the Internet through dial-up so that customers could see their "yellow pages" on the Internet ". In 1996, Haibo's network turnover was RMB 7 million!
In 1999, Alibaba, which was located on the global enterprise network transaction platform, was established in Hangzhou. In the past, the emails sent by enterprises for business negotiation were pulled to the Alibaba platform, which were uniformly released in the form of supply and demand information to facilitate transactions. "At present, more than 6 million companies from around the world are trading here. Last year, orders bought from Alibaba in China amounted to $10 billion ." However, for Jack Ma, "$10 billion" is far less surprising than "6 emails", because this number will double or even more this year.
