Chapter 1352 Want to Join Forces with Tengfei!
Lu Feng looked at him meaningfully, and what he said made Ma Fei's heart skip a beat.
"What does Chairman Lu mean by that? What do you mean by 'giving it another shot'?"
"It means exactly what it says. Tengfei's development in China has reached a bottleneck, but that's not the case internationally!"
"There are billions of users there. If we can capture even one-tenth of them, Tengfei's market value will probably at least double!"
Lu Feng's voice, tinged with a hint of seduction, made Ma Fei's heart flutter while simultaneously feeling somewhat powerless.
“Chairman Lu, of course I know there is a huge market overseas, but cross-border expansion is not that simple.”
Suddenly, Ma Fei let out a long sigh.
"To be honest, I have been making international moves over the years, but despite investing a lot of manpower and resources, the results have not been very obvious."
"The overseas market is already saturated, making it very difficult for Tengfei to enter!"
"Ultimately, it's because China's internet development came too late. If it had been ten years earlier, no! Five years earlier! I'm confident I could have made a name for myself internationally, but now... sigh..."
He looked at the crowd not far away and sighed deeply.
Time waits for no one. In terms of vision and methods, he is no less than the founders of internet empires such as Google and Amazon. The only thing he lacks is time.
Back when he founded Ascendas, internet giants like Google and Amazon were already shining brightly overseas.
By the time his rise to prominence was complete, these groups had already grown into globally renowned business empires.
He wanted to catch up, but reality wouldn't allow it.
The shareholders of Tengfei would not allow him to launch an attack on these business empires rashly. For them, it would be good enough if Tengfei could maintain its current situation.
What they need is a machine that can continuously generate profits for them, not a globally renowned business empire.
Although the latter may bring them greater benefits, the risks involved are also exceptionally high.
If they are not careful, Tengfei could be severely damaged, or even have its foundation compromised. They are unwilling to sacrifice their current interests for an uncertain future.
"Chairman Ma, Tengfei may not have a chance now, but that doesn't mean you don't!"
"Or rather, I have an opportunity right now, but I don't know if you dare to take the gamble!"
Lu Feng suddenly interrupted Ma Fei's sentimentality. He hadn't brought up the topic to listen to Ma Fei's unfulfilled ambitions and melancholy.
He wanted to team up with Ma Fei and create another internet empire that would make the whole world take notice.
It's like how Tenglong is now partnering with Alibaba and Huawei.
Upon hearing Lu Feng's words, Mr. Ma Fei was taken aback. What did he mean by "it doesn't mean you have no chance" and "I have an opportunity now"?
He believes he is no less capable than the owners of those internet empires, but that doesn't mean he thinks he can succeed starting from scratch.
The rise of a large business empire, or rather, the rise of any large business empire, is due to more than just the wise and capable rulers; there is another important factor: the opportune moment of the times.
Without seizing the opportune moment of the times, building a large conglomerate is nothing short of a pipe dream.
Take himself as an example. In today's internet environment, even if he were given a hundred billion yuan in start-up capital, he would not be able to replicate his initial rise to prominence.
To put it even more dramatically, it would be quite difficult to establish a group with a market value of 100 billion.
It's not that his brains and methods have become ineffective, but rather that the current internet simply doesn't offer such good opportunities. Established internet giants won't allow a new company to rise and take away what originally belonged to them.
That's why he was puzzled as to why Lu Feng would say such a thing.
Now that he's left Tengfei, it's virtually impossible for him to make a comeback.
Just like Hu Yintang of Hengtai, if he hadn't met Lu Feng, he probably would have jumped off the rooftop long ago.
“Chairman Ma, since I’ve brought this up, I’m confident in my position.”
"The current environment does not support the rise of a new group, but what if we use Tengfei, Baidu, YiNet, or even Chinese character ByteDance to support this new company?"
"With the support of several companies, I believe this newly established company should be able to break free from its constraints and successfully showcase its own brilliance on the international stage!"
Perhaps sensing Ma Fei's doubts, Lu Feng revealed his entire plan.
Now, he holds absolute control of Baidu and 55% of NetEase, and the two companies have become his conglomerate, under his control.
In addition, he also holds 25% of the shares in Chinese character trolls, and Lei Zheng holds 10% of the shares. This total of 35% is enough to give him a significant voice on the board of directors of Chinese character trolls.
He already owns three well-known internet companies in China, and with Tengfei as the leading company, his new internet company in the future will be invincible throughout China.
At that time, he can focus on making this company shine on Blue Star International.
Now, what he needs to do is persuade Ma Fei to join the plan.
Otherwise, this still-developing internet company will first have to face the behemoth that is Tengfei after it is established.
Although the two have a fairly good personal relationship, he doesn't believe that Ma Fei would give up his many interests because of this personal relationship.
Therefore, pulling it onto the boat is the best solution.
At this moment, Ma Fei was also stunned by Lu Feng's grand plan.
To have Tengfei, Chinese character jumping, and even Baidu Yiwang become the backers of a new company is an incredibly ambitious move.
He couldn't even imagine how far a company could go in the internet industry on Earth if it had so many powerful backers.
It might actually stand at the top of the blue planet.
"Chairman Lu...you have truly shocked me once again. Luckily, we don't live together and don't see each other often, otherwise my heart would have been scared out of its wits sooner or later!"
Ma Fei patted his chest lightly. He was already over fifty years old and really couldn't handle such a barrage of information.
However, Lu Feng's next words left him both amused and exasperated:
"Heart problems? That's easy to solve. Huayu's artificial hearts are almost in mass production. I'll install a custom-made heart for you for free!"
Lu Feng joked.
"Um... what you said is actually quite right!"
Ma Fei's forehead creased with annoyance. He wanted to refute something, but after thinking about it carefully, he couldn't find any points to refute, because what Lu Feng said was the truth.
