Chapter 183 Meituan Takes Over
“Whoever has vested interests is the driving force behind the scenes.”

After bidding farewell to Zhu Hu, Lu Liang walked out of the hotel. He suddenly thought of this sentence and whispered to himself, "So it could be Ali?"

Ali entered the market in person, holding at least 30% of the shares, and all the competitors were sweating profusely.

Not many people knew about Lu Liang's equity transfer, but Ali was definitely one of them, because Zhu Hu had been helping ofo to connect with Ali for a long time, so it was not surprising that Ali knew about it.

"What do you want? Political capital?"

Lu Liang couldn't figure it out, but he knew that Mobike and its competitors would suffer, and at least Meituan would not sit idly by.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, now that big capital has personally taken action, it means that the final decisive battle is almost here.

The next day, Lu Liang was waiting for a call from someone, but he waited for a long time and got no call. Instead, he received the announcement of Qin's sales volume.

In the first 24 hours, the total number of pre-orders reached 2.52 units, which is almost 28% of the total market sales in the first quarter.

Dizi has a complete industrial system and can achieve mass production in three months, so there is no need to keep it secret like Tesla.

The company's stock price surged in response, achieving three consecutive gains, with a market value of 2740 billion, thus driving the sector up 2.43%.

"New energy credits are 2400 yuan each, and there is no price for them. Dizi is going to monopolize the market."

"The good days of these rotten car companies are coming to an end."

"Dizi, rush for me~~"

“Look at 500 billion!”

A number of retail investors have predicted that starting from this month, the entire new energy industry will enter a stage of rapid development.

The mobile phone industry will not allow OP to stand out alone, and the automotive industry will not allow BYD to stand out alone.

What’s more, there is the new policy of carbon credits.

The calculation method of new energy points is 0.012×R+0.8, where R represents the range.

Taking the pure electric version of Qin as an example, the top configuration with a range of 300 kilometers can generate approximately 4.4 points.

The state stipulates that the upper limit of points is 5000 yuan, but the settlement time has not yet arrived, no one needs it, and no one is selling it. The market price is around 2400 yuan.

So when Lao Wang said that he only made 5000 yuan from a car, he was not bragging. After all, he only made a few dollars from selling cars, and the big money would come from selling points and subsidies in the future.

According to the current situation, the surplus new energy points can be sold at the end of the year.

Apart from BYD, there is only Tesla.

Now it’s like there’s a transfer student with excellent grades in the class, and there’s a classmate who’s also working hard quietly, obviously waiting to make a fortune from them next year.

A number of car companies shouted: The wolf is coming.

In the afternoon, Lu Liang finally received a call from Hu Weiwei: "Mr. Lu, Meituan has landed."

With Ali's entry, Meituan could no longer sit still. Li Bing reached an agreement with Shen Peng, and Shen Peng reached an agreement with Wang Xin.

So, Meituan sent people to parachute in and completely strip her of her power. Wang Xin also planned to merge Mobike into Meituan.

"So what do you think?" Lu Liang asked.

Hu Weiwei was silent for a long time, full of melancholy, and sighed: "I really don't know now."

Although I was confused before, I always had hope. I knew the direction and I could think that everything was for Mobike.

But now that Mobike has become Wang's company, she is completely lost. Even if she wants to be busy, she doesn't know what the point is.

Lu Liang pondered for a long time, and suddenly said: "I told you before that I saved a job for you, remember?"

"remember."

"If you want, go to Beijing. Tianxing Technology is still in need of a vice president to take charge."

Hu Weiwei has worked as an automotive journalist for ten years and also founded the technology media GeekCar.

When Lu Liang invited her, he had already thought of a position for her: deputy general manager, with the same status as Tang Caidie.

"Beijing, the car circle..."

Hu Weiwei was in a daze for a moment. After going around in circles for more than a year, it seemed as if she was back to the starting point more than ten years ago.

She always thought Lu Liang was joking at the time, but she didn't expect that he actually reserved a very suitable job for her.

Hu Weiwei thought for a long time. Lu Liang knew that she was calculating the gains and losses, so he was not in a hurry.

He slowly lit a cigarette, puffed out smoke, and patiently waited for her final answer.

After a while, Hu Weiwei took a deep breath and suddenly made up her mind: "Boss Lu, give me three months. I will go to Beijing after I have dealt with the Mobike issue."

She knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and if she refused, there would definitely not be a next time.

Even considering it for a few days is not an option, because the relationship of playing hard to get only exists when both parties are of equal status.

The gap between her and Lu Liang is even greater than the gap between her and Li Bing. There are simply too many people to choose from.

"Three months, four months is fine. Call me when you've handled it." Lu Liang showed a satisfied smile on his face.

He was very pleased that Hu Weiwei was very self-aware and did not talk to him about benefits or even equity issues.

Because it’s too early to say these things now.

It wasn't long before the news started spreading online.

Meituan is suspected to have invested US$4.65 million to acquire Mobike, and Mobike will become a member of the Meituan system.

Soon, the news was confirmed by Li Bing, Hu Weiwei, and Meituan’s Wang Xin.

Once the news came out, public opinion was in an uproar.

Netizens complained: "This is too fast."

The entry of big capital not only means that the final battle is about to begin, but also means that no matter who wins or loses, low-priced riding will become a thing of the past.

The battle between thousands of groups and the battle of online ride-hailing vehicles, countless events have proven this point: the more intense the competition, the greater the benefits to the masses.

On the contrary, once there are only three or two companies left in the market, they will shake hands and make peace, stop burning money, and seek profits.

First build the market, then make money; this has been the strategy that Internet companies have been following for more than a decade.

At the same time, Li Bing also found Lu Liang, full of resentment: "Hu Weiwei is going to resign."

"It's going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, who can stop them?" Lu Liang said with a smile.

Li Bing sighed: "I am sorry for her in this matter."

At the beginning, it was he who encouraged Hu Weiwei to establish Mobike, planned the blueprint for her, raised investment, introduced suppliers, and finally shattered her dream with his own hands.

Lu Liang smiled and joked: "In business matters, there is no such thing as one person apologizing to another, unless you two have a relationship beyond business."

"Stop spreading rumors about me." Li Bing glared at her unhappily. He and Hu Weiwei were just old acquaintances.

A dozen years ago, the automobile market was not so large and there were even fewer automobile journalists.

At that time, he founded Yiche.com and often had to deal with automotive journalists. After a while, the two sides became familiar with each other.

Two years ago, Li Bing saw the potential of the sharing market, but he was busy making cars, so he thought of Hu Weiwei.

"I was joking." Lu Liang was stunned.

"I know you're joking, but I'm really sorry for her."

Li Bing sighed. He explained it in such detail just to let Lu Liang treat Hu Weiwei better in the future and endorse the book for her personally.

Lu Liang's main business is finance, and he is purely optimistic about investing in new energy, but his main business is NIO, which has no room for Hu Weiwei.

He always felt sorry for Hu Weiwei because he didn't leave her a way out, and he didn't dare to meet her these days.

Fortunately, Lu Liang took her in and gave her a place to stay.

"It still depends on her ability."

Lu Liang smiled but didn't say anything final.

It is true that Hu Weiwei has experience, but if she lacks the ability, then no one will be able to speak for her.

Li Bing wanted to talk but stopped. Finally, he sighed and swallowed his words. He had to take out the contract and change the subject: "Take a look at it. If there is no problem, sign and authorize it."

Meituan spent US$4.65 million to acquire the company in full, and he was in charge of this work. Lu Liang holds 2.168%, which is currently worth US$1008.12 million.
