I was reborn and stayed in school to lie down. I really don’t want to roll anymore!

Haijing and Taobao have been cooperating for two years.

The advertising fees from Taobao and the rebates from big data channels are also an important source of revenue for Haijing.

Jiang Hao remembers the specific details of this project cooperation very clearly. After all, he was the one who discussed this project with Jack Ma personally.

At that time, Taobao was still at its peak, with JD.com barely a runner-up.

So in terms of channel fees, Jack Ma finally chose non-exclusive in order to save 1% of the channel fees.

Of course, the only prerequisite is to exclude promotional cooperation with JD.com, but other e-commerce groups are not excluded.

Pinduoduo, which Jiang Hao had planned early on, was naturally not within the scope of the agreement.

Now that a campaign with 10 billion yuan in subsidies has been launched, all the e-commerce groups mentioned above have been stunned.

It has surpassed Suning, Vipshop and JD.com in one fell swoop and now ranks second.

And the momentum is very strong, and the family members know their own business.

Jack Ma is well aware of the background of his Taobao platform. Although there have been rumors in the past two years that he is planning to retire, he is still in control of the group.

As the core e-commerce business is declining, the natural thing is to start working hard again.

"Mr. Ma, if it was exclusive before, I can continue to sign an exclusive contract with Taobao."

"But now our company and Pinduoduo have signed a long-term agreement."

"You also know that their 10 billion yuan subsidy campaign was very successful, and their investment in publicity was not inferior to Taobao..."

Jiang Hao has said it quite straightforwardly. Taobao is a major customer of Haijing, and so is Pinduoduo.

Moreover, in terms of publicity, Pinduoduo has really invested its entire fortune in publicity, which also brings higher profits to Haijing.

Of course, what is more important is that Jiang Hao also invested in Pinduoduo in the name of Haoyue Capital. Now after the listing, he is also a shareholder, but he does not serve on the board of directors. It is even more impossible for him to directly squeeze out Pinduoduo.

"Mr. Jiang, how much is the penalty for breach of contract in the agreement between Pinduoduo and you? We at Alibaba can pay for it."

"If it's exclusive, we'll settle the channel at 8%."

Hearing this, Jiang Hao's eyes widened and he stared at Mr. Ma in front of him.

Although his face was calm, what he said was really not simple.

You should know that the original basis of cooperation between the two parties was fixed advertising fees and channel fees.

The ratio agreed upon that year was 5%, and this ratio has been maintained for the past two years. Haijing's main income also depends on this ratio.

Moreover, Jack Ma couldn't even accept a one percentage point increase, which is 6%.

This time, the direct offer was 8%, an increase of three percentage points, and they were also willing to pay the penalty for breach of contract for the cooperation between Haijing and Pinduoduo.

This is really preparing to use a big move!

Mr. Huang, the CEO of Pinduoduo, who was sitting in the first row, seemed to have noticed something. He glanced at Jiang Hao vaguely, then smiled and nodded at him.

He had no idea that Jack Ma, who was beside him, was ready to declare war on the entire e-commerce circle.

After hesitating for a long time, Jiang Hao finally spoke half persuading and half reminding.

"Mr. Ma, the amount of liquidated damages is very high. The negative impact of voluntarily terminating the contract on Haijing Technology is too great. I cannot agree to this."

"And I'm telling the truth. In terms of the current push exposure of Haijing Technology, the two companies are actually pretty much the same."

"Pinduoduo's activities are indeed more attractive to users, so the conversion effect is better."

"I think you might as well try putting the channel fee into other new activities?"

Jiang Hao had just had a fight with Tencent's Pony Ma, and even though they had temporarily reconciled, he didn't want to fight with Jack Ma again.

I tried my best to come up with an excuse to give to Jack Ma, and politely rejected him.

Taobao's overall size is still slightly larger than Pinduoduo for the time being, and the 8% channel fee is indeed attractive.

But compared with the profits gained by cutting the cooperative promotion with Pinduoduo, this price is far less.

"Mr. Jiang, we can still negotiate on the channel fee, and our new Taobao event will also be launched online."

“I just hope that the Haijing platform can further promote Taobao, I wonder…?”

Mr. Ma spoke again tentatively, this time wanting to confirm whether Jiang Hao felt that the money was not enough or for some other reason.

"Mr. Ma, our Haijing platform will always support the development of Taobao, but I can't take the initiative to terminate the contract."

After hearing Jiang Hao's straightforward response again, Mr. Ma finally nodded in understanding.

I understand that it’s not because of the lack of money, but because there is really no way to negotiate.

No one was angry at the moment, but the originally lively conversation stopped and everyone turned to look at the speaker on the stage.

He is the founder of a robot company called "Eston", and Jiang Hao thinks he looks familiar.

It seemed like I had met Andy Lau at Kirin Battery before, and I immediately reacted when I saw his company's products.

It turns out that their company mainly engages in industrial robots, and some of the robotic arms in Kirin Battery's new production line were purchased by them.

Many of the new energy vehicle companies present here, especially those that have their own production lines, are familiar with the company "Eston", which is also considered to be the leader among domestic robot companies.

Of course, this is different from the robot company in Jiang Hao’s mind.

Fortunately, the next company that made a report and presented its industry outlook really caught his eye.

A young man in a black suit and white shirt walked up to the podium. He looked much younger than Jiang Hao.

He was wearing a pair of black glasses, had fair skin, and was gentle and refined. He looked quite handsome, like a college graduate who was wearing formal attire for a job interview.

What caught Jiang Hao's attention was naturally not the young man's appearance, but the robot dog following behind him.

Covered in black paint, he followed closely behind him at a fairly fast pace.

The robot dog’s head should be equipped with a special camera and detection sensors.

Compared to those engaged in industrial robots, Jiang Hao is more interested in this company whose name is still unknown.

"Hello everyone, I am one of the representatives of the robot company at this conference. My name is Wang Xinxin. I have founded a company called Yushu Technology Co., Ltd., which mainly develops quadruped robots, humanoid robots, and some manipulator projects."

"Because our company has only been in business for three years, we are still a learner in the entire industry, so today I will bring our company's latest robot dog to show and communicate with you."

The young Mr. Wang on the stage was not at all stage-shy. He kept giving instructions to the mechanical dog under his feet and completing them.

The robot dog's smooth completion of instructions made Jiang Hao more and more interested.

He has no memory of this company, but in the future AI and robots should be major trend industries.

Even if he didn't have a foresight, Jiang Hao wanted to contact and communicate with this company that had already made such a perfect robot dog. At the same time, if the other party accepted financing, he also wanted to invest in them.
