Chapter 707: Ali 99 vs. Tengfei, what are the chances of winning?
Ma Tian's hands are broad and powerful, with slightly rough palms, which are traces left by time and countless business games. Every line seems to be telling the glory and hardships of the past.
Lu Feng's hands were relatively young and full of vitality, his fingers were long and strong. He shook hands tightly, conveying his determination and confidence.
This handshake was like the intersection of a veteran business tycoon and a dark horse business legend in the long river of time. The old and the young, representing different business eras, collided at this moment to create invisible sparks.
"Mr. Lu, I've long heard of your great name. Seeing you today, I'm sure you're worthy of my reputation!"
"No, Mr. Ma, you're joking. In front of a big boss like you, how can I be considered worthy of my reputation? This sentence should be applied to you."
The two of them started to flatter each other and it took a while before they loosened their clenched hands.
After letting go of Lu Feng's hand, Ma Tian turned to face Shen Suyuan. The majesty on his face eased a little and he extended his hand politely again.
Shen Suyuan bowed slightly, smiled, and gently stretched out her fair and slender hand to shake hands with Ma Tian.
Her fingers were as delicate as scallions, and her movements when shaking hands were gentle and graceful, showing the demeanor of a lady from a noble family.
Ma Tian smiled and said, "Miss Shen is truly a natural beauty. Seeing her today, I know that the eldest daughter of the Shen family is as beautiful as her reputation. Her aura is so impressive that many celebrities would be ashamed of themselves."
Shen Suyuan smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Ma, you are too kind. In front of a senior like you, I am just a junior."
"Hahaha, Miss Shen is so polite, please sit down!"
This time, the hands of both parties did not hold together for a long time, but just touched briefly before separating.
After all, Shen Suyuan is a girl, and a long handshake can easily cause misunderstandings.
If Shen Muyun targets me again because of this little thing, I will be in big trouble.
Even Ma Tian in Hangzhou had heard of the reputation of the head of the Shen family in the imperial capital for being protective of his children. He didn't want to be targeted by such an old fox.
After sitting down, Feng Tianxiang wisely left. Although he was the president of Alibaba 99 Group, everyone present had a higher status than him.
The conversations between the big guys were not something he could just listen to.
After the three of them sat down, Ma Tian, with a kind smile on his face, turned his gaze to Lu Feng and spoke first:
"Mr. Lu, congratulations to your company, Chenxi Entertainment, for taking first place yesterday."
When Lu Feng heard this, his heart was shocked, and a trace of surprise that was difficult to conceal flashed in his eyes.
He really didn't expect that this matter would reach Ma Tian's ears so quickly, but he was relieved in an instant. After all, this was a grand event in the entertainment industry and it was on a huge scale. Given Ma Tian's status and influence in Hangzhou, it was not surprising that he was well-informed.
"Mr. Ma, you're too kind. It was just luck, and it's just one part of the story. It's nothing."
Lu Feng waved his hand modestly.
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu is too modest. In my opinion, the throne of the number one entertainment company this year belongs to Mr. Lu."
Ma Tian smiled as he poured a cup of tea for each of them, then changed the subject and continued:
"What do you think of our Ali 99 Group, Director Lu?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Suyuan's hand, which was originally drinking tea, trembled slightly. Then she glanced at Ma Tian and gently touched Lu Feng where he couldn't see.
Lu Feng noticed Shen Suyuan's actions and naturally understood that she was reminding him. He patted her hand to indicate that he understood.
"Mr. Ma's Alibaba 99 Group is a household name in China. Its business scope spans many fields, from e-commerce to finance, from technology to entertainment. Each sector is thriving, and its strength is astonishing."
"Its innovative capabilities and business operation model have always been a benchmark and model in the industry, leading the direction of business trends and making indelible and significant contributions to China's economic development and the promotion of the internet industry."
Because he couldn't understand the intention of asking this question suddenly, Lu Feng spoke directly in an official language, not seeking to satisfy Ma Tian, but just to avoid offending anyone.
Ma Tian nodded slightly after hearing this, picked up the teacup and took a sip. When he put the teacup down, he looked directly at Lu Feng, a subtle hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes, and he continued to ask:
"What if it compares to Tengfei?" As he said this, Ma Tian's fingers tapped the table unconsciously, as if he was waiting for Lu Feng's answer, or as if he was thinking about something.
Hearing this, Lu Feng was obviously stunned and weighed the pros and cons in his mind.
Having been in the business world for so long, he naturally knew the complex relationship between the two giants, which could not be judged in a few words.
But now that Ma Tian has asked, if he doesn't answer, it would seem impolite.
After a moment's silence, he slowly spoke, "Mr. Ma, in my opinion, Ali 99 and Tengfei each have their own strengths. Tengfei holds an absolute dominant position in areas such as social networking and gaming. Its user stickiness and wide influence are astonishing."
"Ali 99 is unique in e-commerce and financial technology, and has built an extremely large and comprehensive business ecosystem, playing a key leading role in the transformation of global trade and the digital economy."
"Both companies are giants in the business world, and both have demonstrated extraordinary strength and charm in different dimensions."
Hearing Lu Feng's answer, Ma Tian shook his head slightly, with a faint smile on his face, and said, "Mr. Lu, there is no need to be like this. I want to hear the truth."
Lu Feng's expression straightened up, and he looked directly into Ma Tian's eyes. He responded sincerely, "Mr. Ma, everything I said is true. In my mind, both of them do have their own advantages, and it's hard to tell which is better."
Seeing Lu Feng's cautiousness, Ma Tian stopped beating around the bush. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes focused and sharp, and directly asked a heavy question: "So, what are your thoughts, if Ali and Tengfei go to war now, what are Ali's chances of winning?"
Hearing this, Lu Feng's hands trembled slightly uncontrollably. The amount of information in this question was too huge, like a blockbuster bomb exploding in his mind, making it difficult for him to digest it for a while.
He stared at Ma Tian closely, trying to find out his true intentions from the relaxed smile that always appeared on his face, but Ma Tian's expression was as calm as water, making it difficult to understand.
Shen Suyuan, who was standing by, was also shocked by this question.
The battle between Ali Jiujiu and Tengfei has always been a hot topic on the Internet. Chinese netizens are very curious about who will have the last laugh in the fight between the two sides.
But this has always been a topic of conversation after dinner, something people only say when they are bragging together.
Being asked this question suddenly by Chairman Ma Tian really caught me off guard.
