My Age of Investment

Chapter 98: Stalemate

  Chapter 98 Glue State

  "I have asked Mr. Bezos for instructions. We agree to the three conditions set out by Facebook.

   is only the price, we can only give each new user 40 dollars at most. "

  After speaking, Blackburn looked at everyone with a calm face.

   "In other words, you and eaby have the same conditions?"

  Old John asked with a smile.

   "No, we will also settle the promotion fees of the previous 20,000 new users to you.

  In addition, the tens of thousands of T-shirts that Facebook has sold on Amazon, and the hundreds of thousands of product commissions that have been collected, will also be refunded to you.

  This can also be seen as our sincerity in cooperation.

  In addition, Facebook’s annual sales on Amazon do not exceed 12 million U.S. dollars, that is, monthly sales do not exceed 1 million U.S. dollars, and we do not charge product commissions.

  There are also warehousing, logistics, return processing and other costs, which are in line with sales. Total sales orders of no more than 12 million US dollars a year are free.

  This is also to remove obstacles to cooperation, so that Facebook can devote more energy to the promotion of new users.

  For our two companies, realizing mutual benefit and win-win results. "

  Little Dog and Christina were very happy when they heard it. Amazon was very sincere this time.

  Xia Jingxing guessed that there must be any additional conditions, Bei Tianzi is so good at earning money?

   "Mr. Blackburn, Amazon, if you have any requirements for us, you can also ask them together."

  Blackburn glanced at Xia Jingxing, thinking that the Chinese boy was calm.

  Bezos spoke directly, he wants to tie up Facebook and sign a long-term contract for at least ten years.

  Regardless of whether Facebook will fall into disarray or even go bankrupt in the future, just sign so long to avoid repeating the same mistakes this time.

  This is also to kill all accidents in the bud.

   "We have a requirement that Facebook and us must sign a ten-year exclusive agreement.

  In other words, Facebook cannot cooperate with other e-commerce platforms in any form within ten years.

  Finally, we will add a penalty of 100 million U.S. dollars! "

  Xia Jingxing chuckled in his heart, signing for ten years, I’ll sign a hammer!

  I am used to the old wealth of the Amazon landlord, and I want to use Facebook as a long-term job.

  "Impossible. The ten-year cooperation period is too long. It is better to sign for one year."

  Xia Jingxing refused without procrastination. Facebook's main profit method in the future is not e-commerce, but advertising.

  If you sign a contract with Amazon, you will not be able to receive advertisements on major e-commerce platforms.

  This is very unfavorable for the development of Facebook, which is equivalent to being bound by a layer.

  Old man John also shook his head, “I’ve never heard of such a long-term cooperation agreement. It’s only eight years since Amazon was founded.”

   Andrew interjected, “It’s too long. If something happens in the middle, it may be detrimental to both of you and me.

  What about Amazon? Within ten years, can we only cooperate with one of our social networking sites? "

  Blackburn did not answer the conversation. Facebook’s student users are certainly a tempting cake.

  But the size of Facebook and Amazon is completely different. How can it be possible to cooperate fairly.

  The dominance of cooperation must be in Amazon's hands.

   "I'm sorry, this is the final opinion of our CEO. If you still can't reach an agreement, I think you can talk to eaby, and we can talk to Dating.com.

  Daoyou.com’s CEO Jonathan Abrams is very enthusiastic. He heard that Amazon wants to talk to them and said that he would send a car to pick us up. "

  Blackburn said this in a joking tone with a smile on his face.

  Anti-General!

  Xia Jingxing sighed in his heart that he deserves to be a giant company and is hard to handle.

  "How many users does Diaoyou.com have? Are there 500,000? And the market positioning is not clear, the user population is very messy, the age span is very large, there are people in their 30s and 40s, and people in their 50s and 60s.

  The most important thing is that they are not real-name systems, and the user's sense of belonging to the website is far less than that of Facebook.

  Many of their users are already old users of Amazon. They overlap with your users, and they simply cannot bring many new users to Amazon..."

  Andrew teased on the sidelines, shaking his head while talking, as if Amazon’s cooperation with Diaoyou.com was a very stupid thing.

   "Mr. Andrew, what you said is indeed the truth."

   Blackburn said with a smile.

  Andrew shrugged and smiled.

   Then Blackburn changed his head, “But, I heard that Diaoyou.com’s CEO Jonathan is a man with lofty ambitions and wants to enter the campus market. I wonder if it’s true?”

The foreign girl who has not spoken much said suddenly: "They can try it. They can lose the California market, which is not yet stable, and go to the campus market, starting from scratch, to compete with Facebook, which has 3 million student users. .

  Up to three months, this campus social battle can be seen.

  If Mr. Blackburn is patient, he can wait another three months. "

  Blackburn shook his head, "No, no, no... They are not starting from scratch, but intending to copy your route, and also sell T-shirts, like one university after another.

  Now Facebook only occupies one-eighth of the campus market, right? And Diaoyou.com intends to start from the other seven-eighths of the market. "

  Xia Jingxing smiled. Facebook’s first-mover advantage has been established. Now he is not afraid of Diaoyou.com entering the campus market, and even hopes that his opponent will do like this.

   is equivalent to the opponent abandoning the area where he is good at, and go to the area where Facebook is good at to fight.

  From what we have learned from previous lives, the two founders of Diaoyou.com are indeed very happy. It is possible that Blackburn may have been in contact with each other, and that the other party may have taken a fancy to the campus market.

  Anyway, Blackburn’s "intimidation", whether it is true or false.

  He is completely uncomfortable!

   "If you insist on a ten-year long-term contract, then there is no need to talk about it."

  Xia Jingxing showed a trace of coldness, and said with a very firm attitude.

  "Daren, are you sure?"

   Blackburn's voice also became cold, staring at Xia Jingxing and asked.

"I confirm!"

  Xia Jingxing responded without showing any weakness, and stared at Blackburn sharply.

   Seeing to be about to talk about collapse, the foreign girl and the little dog are very nervous, and the hands under the table are almost sweating.

  Old man John and Andrew face sank, and they have already begun to make alternative plans in their hearts.

   "Well, you guys won!"

  Hearing what Blackburn said, all five people on Facebook were relieved.

  It will take time to talk to Amazon, choose eaby, change platforms, change warehouses, explain to users... etc.

   Facebook’s current upward momentum will definitely be affected, and there is another dating site outside.

  Under internal worries and external difficulties, it is possible for Facebook to go downhill.

  But a ten-year cooperation agreement is absolutely unacceptable, and it has to be hard to beat with Amazon.

   "Five years! This is our last concession!"

  Blackburn looked at the five people on Facebook. Four of the five people looked at Xia Jingxing. The final decision maker was him.

   "Two years!"

  Blackburn stood up, leaned over the table with both hands, and looked down at Xia Jingxing. His tone was very impatient and said: “Dalun, my patience has been exhausted and I don’t want to bargain anymore.”

  Xia Jingxing is speechless, just talk, can you not be so close to me, the spitting star is about to splash Laozi's face?

  "Mr. Blackburn, please stand back a bit, and saliva splashed on my face."

  Said, Xia Jingxing wiped her face.

"Oh, sorry!"

  As soon as Blackburn spoke, his momentum was suppressed silently.

  What Xia Jingxing needs is this opportunity. If the other party's aura eases down, it is time for us to exert our strength.

  "For the three-year cooperation period, Amazon has the priority to renew the contract."

  Blackburn was about to refute, Xia Jingxing’s voice was raised octave, "Please call Mr. Bezos, I don’t want to fight any more, let him make the final decision."

  Looking at Xia Jingxing's firm eyes, Blackburn sighed and nodded.

  PS: Thank you for your rewards!

  Daily ask for recommendation votes, everyone, vote for points!
