Rebirth: Super Banking System-Chapter 1472 - 1317: Grandiose Words (Please Subscribe!)

Amazon.

Is growing into a behemoth in the physical industries.

Offline and online.

Building its own logistics storage.

Quite impressive.

Of course.

Due to the lack of localization.

Its development in Huaxia has always been lackluster, squeezed out by many E-commerce and new retail companies like Ali, Jingdong, Pinduoduo, Gome, and Su Ning, losing its only opportunity to survive.

However.

Undeniably.

The model of this company.

Is the future.

Lost in Huaxia.

It’s not due to the business model, but the problem lies with its localization strategy and slow adaptation. Thus, even if Amazon is overshadowed by Huaxia companies within Huaxia, it doesn’t mean they’re not competent.

Ten years later.

Domestic E-commerce.

Except for Ali, which has a broader scope of business.

Other E-commerce companies.

Rarely go global.

Generally speaking.

In the realm of E-commerce, they can only fiercely compete among themselves. Many companies talk about global strategies, but Tang Qing doesn’t even think they can survive long enough to discuss the global market.

Ali.

Tang Qing believes it will gradually become a global-level company in the future.

But too slow.

Jingdong.

Copies Amazon.

Once it goes international, it will face the same problems of localization. The international market share will be out of Jingdong’s reach for at least fifteen years, and if it loses stamina in the later stages, Jingdong might permanently remain a Huaxia company.

It cannot transform into a world-class company.

Therefore.

Tang Qing is somewhat anxious.

Since you all are not proactive.

Fine.

Then I’ll take matters into my own hands, he can’t imagine, by 2017, ten years later, still seeing those companies at the same scale as before his rebirth, which really frustrates Tang Qing.

Rather than that.

It’s better if I lead the charge.

The foundational logistics are ready.

The model is ready.

Advance.

Put the warehouse goods online.

It can transform into a Jumbo E-commerce company in a very short time.

Retreat.

I’ll just focus on storage and logistics.

It could also create tremendous social value, improve the efficiency of commodity circulation, logistics quality, and consumer experience. Thus, smart storage is a powerful strategy whether advancing or retreating.

For the next two years.

Focus on getting things right domestically.

Stimulate those ’underperforming’ and ’inward-fighting’ companies.

Meanwhile.

Buy land globally in advance because what Tang Qing plans to do isn’t just ordinary storage but involves ’intelligence’. Within these two years, first solve the efficiency issues in logistics operations.

By then.

If willing.

Within one to one and a half years.

It can flourish everywhere, establishing a large number of storage facilities, primarily targeting emerging economies including nations in Africa, of course, not overlooking the European and American markets.

For this.

Spending tens to hundreds of billions every year.

Is inevitable.

However.

This money.

Tang Qing doesn’t plan to spend his own.

And he only has less than one billion in ’petty cash’, far from enough, and he can’t use Qingyuan Technology’s funds, firstly, it’s agreed not to distribute dividends, secondly, if he uses it, it’s taxable.

Tax-exempt.

Does not include personal income tax.

He proposes it for other companies to spend.

As long as it’s not used by Qingyuan Technology, it counts as dividends and he has to pay 20% personal income tax, therefore, till now, Tang Qing hasn’t used the company profits to support other companies.

Every time.

It’s done through the arbitrage account’s funds.

The first batch of capital.

He plans to take a bank loan from domestic banks, he’s already targeted ICBC, as next month at Davos, the CEO of ICBC will be there.

He’ll plead his case before the big shot.

With his credit.

And the good cooperation between both parties over the years.

It’s a relief.

Tens of billions.

It’s not even a stretch.

The second tranche of funds.

He plans to approach Myanmar Investment (Huaxia) Company. Currently, RMB 10 billion worth of gold is sold monthly, all funds eventually transferred to this company’s accounts, yet no use for them has been found yet.

When the time comes.

Sell some equity to them.

After all, it’s like moving from the left hand to the right hand, also considered finding a ’powerful ally’.

Next.

The company can be pushed to go public in Xin’an City.

Once it goes public.

He can borrow virtually unlimited funds from Myanmar Bank, thus, Tang Qing can implement his entire plan without spending money, accomplishing what others can only dream of but cannot do.

...

The changes in the logistics company did not attract outside attention.

The next day.

Sky Eye established the ’Hummingbird Project’ group.

Carrying out early site selection.

And the registration matters of the group.

At the same time.

Myanmar Manufacturing (Huaxia) Group.

Also received orders.

To start the ’Intelligent Commerce and Storage’ project, which is essentially just a derivative of automation, easy to resolve. Of course, easy to resolve, but can’t be taken out directly, instead, an overall plan is issued, then delegated.

Take it slow.

Nowadays.

Myanmar Investment Company, investing and building hundreds of various research facilities in Huaxia, has been operating for over a year, specially undertaking various technologies’ ’emergence’, providing a cover for advanced technologies.

Quite silly.

Quite absurd.

But this is a necessary process.

...

December 7th.

Afternoon.

Tang Qing boarded the plane heading for Beijing.

On the plane.

Besides Zeng Rou and a few others who came to join in the fun, there was a guest—Ma Yun. He came to Shanghai on business today, so he canceled his 10:30 pm flight tonight and took a Shunfeng Aircraft instead.

"Boss Tang, this plane...feels a bit different," Ma Yun said, after taking a sip of fruit wine.

Tang Qing asked with a smile, "How is it different?"

"Can’t say for sure, the vibration, the sound, and the feel... I’ve been on other people’s Gulfstream G550s many times, but they all feel pretty much the same, only yours feels quite different."

Ma Yun said

"How about I get you one as well, you fly around often and have to catch flights, it’s tiring," Tang Qing changed the subject.

"Too expensive."

Ma Yun was somewhat tempted.

"Your value can’t be compared to that of a plane. So, in a few days, I’ll propose to the Ali Board of Directors to buy a Gulfstream series aircraft in the name of the company, to be used as Ali’s corporate aircraft."

Just for Ma Yun.

Even if the Ali Board of Directors unanimously agrees, Ma Yun won’t agree.

Therefore.

Using the pretext of providing comfortable travel for Ali’s senior executives is much better; indeed, upon hearing this, Ma Yun got more tempted, as the company’s senior executives had mentioned more than once that frequently catching flights is too torturous.

Seeing this.

Tang Qing clapped his hands.

"Alright, let’s decide on this."

"Thank you."

"Thanks for what, I’m not spending any money," Tang Qing laughed, the current Ali has money, the financing of more than two billion US dollars hasn’t been put to much use and continues to operate with existing funds.

In a previous life, it was the same.

The several billion US dollars raised by Ali at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange were kept in reserve, and later, when it went private, this money was used to buy back stocks, essentially just having a stroll around the Hong Kong Stock Market.

"Director Tang, I hear this year’s annual meeting is quite a spectacle," Ma Yun said.

"Ha, some people are anxious, but it’s good they’re anxious; anxiety brings the drive for change. I am not afraid of competing with anyone. What I fear is, once everyone has their share to eat, they’ll stop progressing,"

Tang Qing said slowly.

Such bold words.

Made Ma Yun shiver from head to toe.

For a long while.

Ma Yun gave a thumbs up.

"...Impressive."

These words.

Had deep implications.

The more he thought about it.

The more he felt that Tang Qing was playing a big game.
