Chapter 264 - 264 Bezos’ Counterattack Means Something!
264 Bezos’ Counterattack Means Something!
Big Brother said in an envious tone, “Bezos is the most valued by the higher-ups in our circle.”
Luo Feng smiled. “Tencent should receive the same treatment if that’s the case.”
“That’s different!” Big Brother analyzed it very professionally. “Think about it. What is Amazon’s scope and what is Tencent’s scope? Their influence on the country will definitely be different, and the level of importance will also be different.”
Luo Feng thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.
Amazon was mainly in the e-commerce field, while Tencent developed online virtual industries like social media, videos, and games. It seemed that the influence of the two families was not much different.
However, the virtual network was built on the physical economy. To the higher-ups of the country, manufacturing was the foundation of the country. E-commerce was beneficial to the development of manufacturing and promoted the economy, so it would definitely be more biased towards Amazon.
Therefore, over the years, Tencent’s boss was still inferior to Bezos even though it had developed vigorously.
On the other hand, it was also because the games developed by Tencent had always been very controversial among the higher-ups. Many of the higher-ups expressed their dissatisfaction, which forced the boss of Tencent to keep a low profile.
He was afraid that he would be targeted by the higher-ups if he floated.
Bezos was different. His development was quite smooth when it came to policy. He had always been an unstoppable existence until he encountered a wall with Luo Feng.
Luo Feng suddenly remembered as he listened to his big brother describe Bezos’ background vividly.
In his previous life, the country had opened many convenient doors for Bezos for the development of Amazon.
Bezos would not be able to fight with the banks for profits even if he worked hard for another 20 years without the help of the higher-ups.
However, in his previous life, Bezos had probably become arrogant and felt that he was confident enough and wanted to create a financial innovation. It was equivalent to going against the will of the higher-ups. In the end, he was “educated” and did not dare to make a sound.
During that period of time, Bezos, who was glorious in front of the camera, had also kept a low profile. As a result, Luo Feng did not hear from him for a long time.
No matter how public opinion evaluated Bezos at that time, Luo Feng felt that he was a powerful person.
At the very least, that smooth talking in front of the camera was enough for many people to learn from for the rest of their lives.
Just like this, Bezos, who was standing on the stage, made the people below the stage laugh with a few words. The atmosphere of the venue became cheerful.
Bezos was also full of smiles. When the laughter below subsided, he continued, “Amazon has also achieved minor results in the past year. There are more than 400 million Amazon registered users, which means that one in five people in the country is using Amazon to shop.”
“Our online transactions exceeded 1.94 billion yuan on the day of the shopping street! The number of goods transacted online exceeded 800 million. It’s four times more than last year!”
On the big screen, real data was displayed one after another.
Even though the current Amazon had yet to reach the peak of Luo Feng’s memory, this result was still second to none on the domestic Internet!
The big brother beside him said sourly, “Showing off too obviously!”
Big Brother was not in the e-commerce industry, but someone in charge of Internet security. He did pretty well too, so he was invited here.
However, when he saw Amazon’s proud results and imagined the immeasurable benefits behind them, Big Brother expressed his jealousy.
Luo Feng patted his shoulder. “Big Brother, don’t be fooled by Amazon’s current glory. Perhaps in a few years”
“Will it go bankrupt?” Big Brother said in surprise.
” Perhaps you’ll get used to it in a few years if they develop even better,” Luo Feng said sincerely. “Time can heal everything after all.”
Big Brother rolled his eyes at Luo Feng speechlessly, thanking him for his special way of comforting him.
They were no longer interested in chatting. The two of them focused on listening to the comments on the stage.
Bezos spoke frankly, highlighting the recent development of Amazon. He had almost finished talking, but he had no intention of going down.
Instead, he raised the microphone and was silent for some reason.
“Actually, the speech I prepared this time is almost over. However, after thinking about it carefully, I still have a few words I want to tell everyone, so I’ll delay your time for a few more minutes.”
Bezos’ sudden statement caused a commotion below.
The speeches of the people on stage were all reviewed on such an occasion after all. Everyone was surprised that he suddenly wanted to give an off-script speech.
It was obvious that something was about to happen!
Especially the reporters squeezed in the back row. They smelt news.
“Camera ready! Record whatever Bezos says!”
Some sharp reporters had already begun to get excited.
Luo Feng listened to the commotion around him and looked seriously at the stage. He vaguely felt that Bezos seemed to have glanced at him. He had a feeling that this matter seemed to be related to him.
Ai Tingya also sensed Bezos’ gaze and said uneasily, “Why do I feel like he’s looking at you?”
Luo Feng did not say anything and looked straight at the stage.
Bezos took a deep breath and said, “What I want to say is about the healthy development of our Internet company. I think the creators of the Internet should use services and create social value to obtain the market, not take a shortcut and rely on short-term methods like burning money subsidies to win over people’s hearts.”
“Especially individual companies! I want to tell them that such a market is unhealthy and can’t continue to develop!”
Bezos emphasized on “individual companies”. Anyone with ears could understand what he meant.
As expected, the audience exploded before he could finish speaking!
The reporters in the back row were the first to react. They couldn’t care less who was standing in front of them. They raised their microphones and squeezed forward, afraid that they would be snatched away if they were a step slower.
“Who are you referring to, Mr. Bezos?”
“You’re referring to Gather Sift Takeaway, right? Please answer?”
“You have exclusive information? Do you want to say that Gather Sift Takeaway is competing unfairly?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the gazes of the others converged on the boss of the Gathering Sift, Luo Feng.
Being targeted by Bezos was not good news for a new company. Many people who had heard of the dispute between Gather Sift Takeaway and Are You Hungry had smiles in their eyes.
Internet entrepreneurs were considered young compared to traditional entrepreneurs but Luo Feng was simply too young!
Fame can be a double-edged sword. Many people felt that Luo Feng’s face was too handsome and incompatible with the surrounding style. He was like an idol celebrity visiting a middle-aged man’s gathering.
In addition, Gather Sift Takeaway had been in the limelight for the past two months. Many people would probably like to see young people’s spirits dampened.
