1999, Ma Yun led 18 people who are now called "the eighteen arhats of Alibaba" to start a business in Hangzhou. The earliest Alibaba is B2B enterprise (B2B is the abbreviation of Business-to-Business, which refers to the business model of exchanging and transmitting data and information between enterprises through private networks or the Internet for trading activities. )
Regarding the business model of B2B, this is an arbitrage of asymmetric information. When the search engine appeared, it didn't need B2B to a great extent, but it was an audit mechanism at most.
Therefore, the development of B2B in Alibaba is not particularly good. In 2004, Alibaba began to incubate the payment platform, which is Alipay that we are all using now. Now we will find online payment such as WeChat and Alipay very convenient, but there was no particularly good payment platform in the market at that time. So at this time, Alibaba completed the transformation.
In 2005, Yahoo's development in China was not as good as expected, so Yahoo sold all the assets of China to Alibaba, replacing 35% of the voting rights and 40% of the shares of Alibaba. Now Alibaba has become one of the top Internet companies in the world. Many people think that the only thing that Yahoo has done right is to hold shares in Alibaba.
With the continuous derivation of Alibaba, products such as Ali Software appear. In 2007, Alibaba was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange with the stock code 1688. Later, Alibaba Group encountered many challenges and problems in its development, so on June 20, 20 12, Ali was delisted by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Prior to this, 20 12, 1, Taobao Mall was changed to Tmall, which strengthened the platform positioning.
