Legendary American Tycoon

Having discussed with Bezos in advance, when White got off the plane, an exclusive person dressed in a straight suit came to pick him up, and then settled in his Seattle residence. This shows Bezos's style as a host. It saves White a lot of unnecessary remote troubles.

White spent one night in an expensive hotel, and met Bezos the next day. Bezos' bald head made him stand out in the crowd and very different.

They met on the first floor of the hotel. As soon as Bezos came up, he and White had a warm bear hug. This big brother is not tall, and he needs to stand on tiptoe with his arms around White's neck.

This made Bezos's image greatly compromised, but he didn't care at all, with a smile on his face and spring breeze on White's shoulders, and he went out of the hotel and got into a high-end black car.

They each exchanged greetings with each other about their sleep situation last night. White had never seen the legendary Bezos before, but when I saw him now, he didn't think he was very ostentatious. On the contrary, he is very approachable.

Through the people he has been in contact with so far, White has temporarily reached a conclusion. Generally, the bosses don’t show up, but the top employees below like to show up.

Of course, there are reasons for the boss to maintain his image.

The car is very comfortable and stable, and the view of Seattle is gradually spreading out the window.

After the greetings, they discussed the issue of publishing and selling. The spacious carriages are air-conditioned, and discussing things in this environment makes people feel very comfortable and comfortable.

Bezos is a shrewd businessman, no matter what conditions he offered, it seems reasonable, but he quietly works for himself. White naturally saw this, so he was not in a hurry to talk to Bezos.

When finally getting out of the car, White took the initiative to say: "Does Amazon only sell e-books now?"

Bezos shook his head and said: "The times are advancing, and we have gradually discovered that it is not enough to do it only in e-books."

"That's good, that's right." Huai Fei nodded and said, "I went to Amazon's official website a few days ago and discovered an interesting event. As long as I buy an e-book, can I get a free one-month audiobook trial opportunity? "

"This is a promotional idea we came up with recently."

While getting off the car, White said to Bezos behind: "I find it very interesting, but a bit inconvenient. It is limited to local credit card binding. If it is an international one, it will not take two to three days to process a universal credit card. time?"

"There is no way, in order to prevent some people from being malicious."

Bezos smiled bitterly, and they walked slowly into the Amazon office building, which was not inferior to the previous Silvas building. They were also uplifted from the ground and towering into the clouds.

They got into the elevator and reached the top floor. The elevator went up so fast that there was almost no blockage along the way, and Bezos took White to his office.

After entering, Bezos poured White a cup of coffee.

White sat down with coffee in his hand: "Why not consider gift cards?"

Bezos was stunned for a moment, unable to understand.

In fact, gift cards are the same as Haitao. They can only be played after changing hands. After White talked to Bezos carefully, he added another sentence when he saw Bezos touching his bald head in thought.

"Aren't you going to acquire Joyo to increase business activities across the ocean? This is a more convenient method."

auzw.com Bezos is not clear about the situation in Asia on the other side of the ocean, especially in the continental area. He naturally does not understand it. After White's explanation, he realized it.

"Is there such a network protection program?" Bezos raised his eyebrows. "Brother White is really knowledgeable and even knows this."

Why don't you know?

White thought to himself that Lao Tzu grew up there, and it was clear.

"It seems that it is more difficult to expand into the mainland industry."

Bezos was lost in thought, obviously thinking about the pros and cons. Seeing that he was suspicious of the acquisition of Joyo, White said again: "I don't know what identity I should use to say this to you, so forgive me for being rude."

When Bezos heard this, he waved his hands again and again: "How come? Thank you for your advice."

Even the words are quite courteous.

Bezos said: "What do you think about Joyo, brother White?"

Very intimate tone.

White took a sip of coffee and said, "I want to buy shares in my own name, and I support your acquisition to expand the market in the mainland."

Bezos raised his eyebrows in surprise, with an expression on his face saying: So this is your wishful thinking. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't think this investment was not a bad thing. What's more, the person in front of you is the CEO of Lumblar. Everyone is in the Internet industry. Although there are some differences, there may be overlaps in the future.

After such careful thinking, Bezos asked White about the pros and cons. In the final analysis, this acquisition of Joyo was a small idea that he unintentionally revealed. How to implement it? I haven't figured out how to implement it. I don’t want to buy at a loss. That's it.

White drew a very popular and simple analogy.

"On the mainland, there is such an e-commerce platform. It is not only on the mainland, but also in Tokyo. This is just an example." White said, "If Amazon wants to gain a foothold in the international market, it must first defeat these local industries. ,right?"

Bezos nodded.

"At first glance, this is a very bad thing. Because the local industry has too many advantages, but on the other hand, using the currency exchange rate as an example. Amazon earns one yuan, which needs about seven yuan from the local industry to tie it. Quantity. A big, this gap will come out."

Bezos said: "So this is still a worthwhile sale?"

Huai nodded.

Bezos suddenly said that he was about to shake hands with White: "You are really easy to understand, for example. I haven't discussed it with the board of directors, but after listening to your explanation, I know it."

In just a few words, White made Bezos, a shrewd businessman who had been rolling for many years, look at him with admiration. In fact, the reason is very simple, because the two fields are different.

White picked the one he was most familiar with and attacked the one that Bezos was least familiar with. Naturally, he succeeded easily.

As it was lunch time, Bezos invited White to eat at a nearby high-end hotel. White originally ordered a flight back to California at night, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so both of them were very happy during the dinner.

Bezos even said: "You are very welcome to join, White. I am very ashamed to say that I am far from your insight at your age. Your vision is really very broad. This is what many young people do not have. Of."
