Chapter 2138 Ma Yun
In the previous life, Ma Yun's name was very popular to Duan Yun. His fame has even surpassed his nationality. On the international stage, he often participates in various forums and speeches, and he is well received both at home and abroad. respect and admiration.

But no one is perfect. Although Jack Ma has been controversial in China, it has to be said that he is indeed one of the most successful entrepreneurs and one of the biggest winners in China in the Internet age.

It was precisely out of curiosity about this character and appreciation for his future career that Duan Yun took the initiative to send him an invitation letter, hoping that he could come to Shenzhen for an interview and discuss some issues about Internet business.

After asking his assistant Guo Kai to send out the invitation letter, Duan Yun put the matter aside and dealt with some internal matters of the company, mainly the reform of the company by the IBM management consulting team.

Since the IBM consulting team came to Shenzhen, they have really put into work very quickly. The first thing to do is to make an in-depth assessment of the current Tianyin Group management system, and this step will last for about three months. Including detailed evaluation of the company's personnel, finance, production, logistics, and other aspects of the system, and in order to allow IBM's consulting teams to better complete their tasks, Duan Yun also gave these foreign experts some privileges, allowing them to work in the company's In addition to a few core confidential departments, a comprehensive investigation must be conducted, and the heads of all relevant departments must also fully cooperate with the IBM team. If there is any resistance or disobedience, Duan Yun will be severely punished.

Duan Yun's series of measures made the company see his determination to reform the company's management system, so when facing these foreign experts, he was very cooperative and obedient. Time for corporate reform plans.

Three days later, when Duan Yun entered his office in the morning, the security department at the door called and told Duan Yun that a man named Ma Yun wanted to come in and meet him.

After hearing the news that Ma Yun had arrived, Duan Yun was a little surprised, because he didn't expect Ma Yun to come so quickly. It was obvious that the other party should leave soon after receiving the notice.

In fact, Duan Yun has forgotten that there is a huge gap between himself and the current Jack Ma. You must know that the current Duan Yun is well known in China. He is the largest private enterprise owner in the country and the richest man in the country. All have enormous influence.

At this time, Ma Yun was just an English and international trade lecturer at Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Technology. Although Ma Yun was considered a young talent at that time, he was rated as an outstanding young teacher in HZ City and initiated the first English corner by the lake. , is considered well-known in the translation circle in Hangzhou, but compared to Duan Yun, he is not worth mentioning at all.

In addition, in this era, rich bosses are very admired, and for Ma Yun, who is determined to start a business, it is also a very rare opportunity to meet a top domestic business leader like Duan Yun, so in the reception After being invited by Duan Yun, he felt very excited, bought the train ticket overnight, and got on the train to Shenzhen in the early morning.

"Mr. Duan, hello!" After being brought into Duan Yun's office by the security guard, Ma Yun saw Duan Yun sitting at the desk at a glance, then stretched out his hand with a smile on his face, and walked quickly towards Duan Yun.

At this time, Ma Yun was much younger than what Duan Yun saw on TV in later generations. He was wearing a very clean T-shirt with a parted head. Although he was not tall and his figure was a little thin, he looked very Spirit, full of confidence in the talk.

"Sit down." Seeing Ma Yun, Duan Yun immediately smiled, shook hands with him, and motioned him to sit opposite him.

This moment is very strange to Duan Yun, because in his previous life, he only saw Ma Yun on the Internet and on TV, and felt that Ma Yun was unattainable together at that time, but at this moment, their status Completely reversed, Ma Yun is just an ordinary little person in front of him.

"Mr. Duan, after receiving your invitation, I was really excited. When I faced outsiders before, I often said that Mr. Duan is my idol and role model. There are many practices and experiences that I can learn from. At this time, Ma Yun was still a little excited, and he continued: "I really didn't expect Mr. Duan to invite me over. This is something I didn't even dare to think about before..."

"Actually, the reason why I invited you here is because I learned that you have set up a computer service company in Hangzhou. Just last month, you also created a website called China Yellow Pages. I think this is a Very good website, can you tell me about the original intention of creating this website?" Duan Yun asked with a smile.

"We have built this website, which can be said to be the first online Chinese business information site in China, and it can also be said to be the first commercial website in China..." When mentioning the website he built, Ma Yun became eloquent Keep getting up.

It has to be said that Ma Yun's thinking and eloquence are still very powerful. Even among all the business elites Duan Yun has met, he can definitely be regarded as a top figure.

In fact, Ma Yunzhi's good eloquence and business ability are inseparable from his knowledge and experience. In 1988, he graduated from the Department of Foreign Languages ​​of Hangzhou Normal University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English. He was then assigned to Hangzhou Electronics Co., Ltd. As a lecturer in the Industrial College, his strong foreign language ability and literary attainments gave him strong logical thinking and language organization skills, which also laid the foundation for his later career development.

When Ma Yun was a university lecturer, he set up a translation agency called Bohai, and hired retired teachers to do translations. In order to raise funds for the company, Ma Yun once went to Yiwu and Guangzhou to buy goods with a big bag on his back. Selling flowers, selling gifts, and selling medicines for a year along the way, the sales targets are listed in large hospitals, down to barefoot doctors.

It can be said that being a university lecturer at that time was a very respectable and relatively well-paid occupation. Selling goods at a stall and selling medicine seemed to have nothing to do with his own occupation, and even seemed a bit "disgraceful" to some people. , but Ma Yun is a person who is not willing to be ordinary and brave to make a difference, so he can do what he wants to do without caring about other people's eyes. This alone is not something ordinary people can do.
