Bibi and Kuaidi did not sit idly by because of the rectification. On the one hand, they have been working hard to shorten the rectification period, and on the other hand, they have also increased subsidies.

Promotion is not allowed, but Didi’s attacks on the sinking market can always be resisted.

Didi has also become accustomed to quitting when it is ahead, and will always leave a line every time, without the brutality that it had when doing group buying before.

Seeing the dramatic reversal of the situation, most people began to remain silent and no longer had the enthusiasm to discuss the matter as before.

The market itself is a hard nut to crack, but for some reason, Pin Tuan can turn it into a soft persimmon. They feel that they should not be qualified to judge Pin Tuan as a company.

After the spring rain in early April, Uber officially withdrew from the Chinese market as rumored in the industry.

At that time, Travis came downstairs to the dripping rain headquarters, looked at the clouds like fish scales, couldn't help but wrapped his coat tightly, and walked to the car under the leadership of Peter Fenton and his secretary Anna. .

But just as he sat down, a Maybach crossed the long street after the rain and approached Travis' car.

The car window was lowered, and Gu Ming slowly turned his head and gave a friendly smile.

[Old Te, when you return to the United States, I will see you off. 】

Kang Jingtao couldn't help but think of the words that Gu Minglai used to greet him at the Internet Conference, and thought that this might be the legendary keeping one's word.

In the market competition that lasted for more than a year, Uber struggled many times, and now it is finally leaving, and Gu Ming did arrive as promised.

In fact, Travis was once selected as one of the top ten most influential young CEOs in Silicon Valley. His reputation in the United States is no less than Gu Ming's. However, in front of Gu Ming, his momentum is still inferior and he looks old.

"Goodbye Mr. Travis."

"Mr. Gu, I think I will never come to China again. Maybe there is no need to say goodbye."

"No, I mean see you in overseas markets."

"..."

Travis shuddered, and his eyes twitched wildly.

He came to the Chinese market with great ambition to make money, but he never expected to offend a powerful enemy who would go after Uber overseas.

Gu Ming tilted his head at this time, leaning against the headrest of the back seat, and looked at Kang Jingtao standing under the dripping eaves: "Boss Kang, long time no see."

"It's been a long time since we last met, Mr. Gu."

"Uber leaves, what are you going to do? Are you interested in trying a group ride? I wish Jin Fu a good job in our company."

Hearing Zhu Jinfu's name, Kang Jingtao couldn't hold his nerve for a moment.

When Lashou.com was aggressively attacking the Shenzhen market, Kang Jingtao parachuted into the Shenzhen branch, bypassing Zhu Jinfu and attempting to poach Gu Ming's sales team. However, he ended up directly destroying Lashou's last independent branch.

Since then, Zhu Jinfu packed up his belongings and joined Tuantuan, becoming the general manager of Tuantuan Shencheng, and his life was prosperous.

Thinking about myself again, damn, I really took a detour for 1 years.

"Boss Gu, do you need me for group buying?"

When Kang Jingtao heard that he could be recruited by the group buying team, he became excited without even noticing his brain, but he did not show his excitement. Instead, he humbly asked if the group buying team needed him.

This is the emotional intelligence of senior professionals. Now all workers across the country know that group buying is one of the companies with the highest employee benefits and salary levels, so they don’t need to ask what they can get, but what the company needs me for.

Gu Ming looked at Travis and said, "In the future, when we are going to enter the overseas market, I need someone who understands Uber."

Travis: "..."

Kang Jingtao pursed his lips and said, "I will report to the company on Monday."

Speaking of which, fate is quite interesting. In order to raise funds, Lashou.com frantically emphasized its status as the king of group buying, and even pretended to hold a group buying conference and invited all parties to participate.

At that meeting, Gu Ming once joked that he would arrange five insurances and one fund for Kang Jingtao.

At that time, group buying was unknown and many people took this statement as a joke, but now it has come true.

Gu Ming retracted his gaze and said, "Old Te, the time has come, let's go."

Travis ordered the driver to drive, but for some reason, the back of his neck felt a little cold.

Afterwards, a group of two cars arrived at the airport.

Gu Ming did not get out of the car, but watched Travis leave through the window.

"His secretary is pretty good-looking."

After Gu Ming finished speaking, he suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the driver: "Don't tell your boss's wife what I just said!"

The driver swallowed: "Ming...I understand."

After Uber completely left China, someone did the math for them and found that this American company spent a total of nearly 1 billion US dollars in the domestic market, which really deserves the word "lavish".

In the end, at the end of the first game, they took nothing away. They were simply living Bodhisattvas.

But some people say that this is not true. Although Uber lost the market, it still gained 3% of Bibi’s shares.

Every time they hear such words, some outspoken people can't help but say that Gu Ming smiled and asked foreign capital to leave the market, and quietly locked the door, intending to beat up his competitors in the small dark room. Under such circumstances, it is hard to say whether Bibi's shares will still be valuable in the future.

From February to April, this farce that had never escalated into a big mess finally showed signs of clearing up after the rain.

During these three months, group buying has successfully entered four regions: South Korea, Thailand, Singapore and Hong Kong.

Before the New Year, the market research team had conducted a five-month investigation on these four markets, so the establishment this time was very smooth.

However, this time, Pintuan did not start with group buying as it did in China, but with takeout.

Because according to previous market experience, the growth rate of the takeout industry is far higher than that of group buying. Group buying changes the development order to takeout first and then group buying, which can save 5% of development time.

So the overseas platform keeta was officially launched.

South Korea's latitude is slightly higher than China's, so even though spring has arrived, Koreans still have to wear coats to keep warm.

In Cheongdam-dong, Seoul, a group of people in suits and ties waved to each other on the street and got into their cars after saying goodbye.

"President, where are we going now?"

"back office."

"Ok."

The German food delivery giant DeliveryHero, also known as Waimai Chaoren in Chinese, is currently doing very well in South Korea. The former China CEO Liu Yihua left China after being beaten up and was transferred to South Korea to develop the market here.

Although his domestic record is not good, Liu Yihua is experienced and has lived in South Korea for many years, so the company boss still trusts him.

Of course, Liu Yihua did not live up to this trust.

After abandoning the Chinese market in 2013, they spent two years developing their Korean business, which is now quite large.

To be honest, the business environment in South Korea is much friendlier than that in China. There are not so many people fighting for it. As long as it can provide high-quality services, you can start quickly.

Only when Liu Yihua came here did he know what paradise was. Compared with it, the involution of the Chinese market was like hell.

When I returned to the Korean branch of deliveryhero from Cheongdam-dong, it was lunch time and the employees were all eating at their workstations.

As a food delivery company, of course the employees eat food delivered by DeliveryHero.

Liu Yihua walked by with a smile, greeting the grassroots employees, and suddenly stopped and looked at the takeaway of one of the employees.

His takeaway box is covered with a plastic bag with the name and logo of deliveryhero printed on it, which looks quite beautiful.

The efficiency of the publicity department is still very good. They have already started to unify the packaging and expand the brand influence.

Liu Yihua walked into his office and saw his secretary walking in with a stack of documents.

"President, a new food delivery company has recently emerged, called Keeta, and it is growing very fast."

"Local enterprise?"

"No, they're from China."

Liu Yihua was slightly stunned after listening to it, and took the information sheet. When he saw the Keeta logo on the first page, his eyelids jumped instantly.

For some reason, when he saw that bright yellow color, he always had a sense of déjà vu.

Then, Liu Yihua continued to look back, and when he saw the name of Keeta's head office in this company, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Liu Yihua's secretary was Korean. When he saw his face change drastically, he was slightly stunned and didn't understand what happened to the president.

Deliveryhero has many years of market experience and has conquered the world. His resources and technology are at the forefront of the market. After entering South Korea, he has been successful and has hardly encountered any competitors. So his solemnity puzzled his secretary.

But at this moment, there was a sudden click from the office takeaway.

"Axi!"

The man who had just eaten the takeaway stood up from his workstation. His pants were soaked with soybean paste soup, and the keyboard on his desk was soaked through.

The employee was very angry. He pulled out paper to wipe his pants while moving the keyboard aside.

The soup dripped down the edge of the table, turning the floor into a brown color.

Liu Yihua came out upon hearing the sound, and stood on the left side of the coffee bar. He looked at the employee who was furious, and then looked at the packaging bag that was torn from the bottom. The chill he had just felt instantly rushed from his spine to his mind.

He felt that a thick fog filled with murderous intent was surging towards the market, which was grand and inescapable.
