The past weekend was not calm, and the heavy news from the United States pushed Liu Qiangdong to the hot search again.
On June 24, US time, Liu Jingyao v. Liu Qiangdong held a formal trial hearing in Minnesota.
Four years ago it was a criminal case, and four years later it has now become a civil litigation case, which means that Liu Qiangdong is not an act of aggression, but just a scumbag derailed.
Therefore, this hearing is mainly Liu Jingyao's prosecution of Liu Qiangdong for causing her substantial and huge harm, as well as JD.com's cover-up behavior in this matter.
Liu Jingyao's lawyer released a large amount of evidence to prove that Liu Qiangdong caused substantial harm to the woman despite the woman's refusal, and demanded a minimum of 50,000 US dollars, with no cap compensation.
Liu Qiangdong here provided a large number of video evidence that the woman repeatedly "lied", in a public video evidence, Liu Jingyao in the apartment elevator, did not have the so-called "drunk can not see the elevator button", but made an invitation gesture to Liu Qiangdong, but also pointed out the direction.
In the dinner video, Liu Jingyao is very active, not only pouring herself a drink, but also clapping with others, after the dinner, she did not "get up and run away" as she said, but also got up to catch up with Liu Qiangdong, who left first.
According to the video in the police law enforcement recorder, Liu Jingyao repeatedly told the police that she was not raped and that she was voluntary.
There are too many inconsistencies in all this, and many netizens have been talking about it: "Is it difficult to withdraw 2.2 billion yuan before this is to compensate Liu Jingyao?" ”
Among them, more netizens said: "Just because I can't control my pants belt, I pull myself and Jingdong down the altar together, I don't know if Liu Qiangdong regrets it or not." ”

There was a Liu Qiangdong out of the cold door
The day before he left the countryside, Liu Qiangdong had nothing to do with entrepreneurs.
Liu Qiangdong's grandfather ran the boat, and later after his father worked as a farmer for several years, he chose to go back and continue to run the boat.
In order to make a living, Liu Qiangdong's parents had to live on the rapids, while the young Liu Qiangdong became a "left-behind child", growing up on the barren land, looking at the past, the dead branches and the canal that could not be seen.
And his life path, like other people of the same year, should have been to go to primary school for a few years, and then drop out of school and go home to cultivate the fields, become a farmer facing the loess soil, and then take a daughter-in-law from the same village, give birth to a few big fat boys, and live a life like this.
However, he was intelligent and loved to learn since he was a child, and eventually he was admitted to Chinese University with the results of the Suqian City College Entrance Examination.
At that time, a village could produce a college student, which was equivalent to paying gold.
So, the whole village made up 500 yuan for each of them, and Grandma carefully sewed the money into his underwear, and then stuffed it into the 76 tea eggs sent by his whole village and sent Liu Qiangdong to take the train to Beijing.
After college, he worked hard, helping someone write a letter for 6 cents, and he wrote it for more than a year.
I have done tutoring, sold books, wiped computers for teachers, and as long as I can make money, I can do it.
In order to learn programming in his sophomore year, he slept on the floor of the computer room when he was sleepy, and got up at 6 a.m. to climb to class.
Later, he wrote a power management system for government departments and a catering management system for fast food restaurants, and earned the first bucket of gold, 300,000.
Carrying a huge amount of money in his waist, he has more courage to fight against reality.
Because he had no household registration and no relationship, his dream of becoming an official gradually faded away.
He only wanted to make money, and in his senior year, he took out all his savings, won a restaurant, hired a chef and a cash collector to run it, and continued to help others write software to earn extra money.
But in less than half a year, the purchase price in the restaurant soared, and when it closed down, Liu Qiangdong owed more than 100,000 foreign debts.
Later, he entered Ribao Laifu as a network manager, a warehouse manager, a salesman... Until he paid off his foreign debt, he decided to resign and return to his hometown.
The lively city of Beijing, at this moment, could not tolerate this rural youth.

From poor boy to hundreds of billionaire businessman
But he did not choose to give up, but temporarily returned home, dusted off the dust on his body, and set off again.
Liu Qiangdong, 10,000 20,000 and 24 years old, returned to Zhongguancun in Beijing, rented a 4-square-meter stall, bought an old computer, a broken three-wheeler, and began to sell a burner and a CD, and the name of the stall was "Jingdong Multimedia".
At that time, his girlfriend from a noble family did not understand why a college student would go to a dry stall and drop the file so much.
She had no way of knowing that because Liu Qiangdong's dream was not only for him to realize, but for the village behind him, for his parents.
After a year of hard work, Liu Qiangdong went from tens of thousands of sales per month to millions of sales, and directly chartered an entire floor as an office.
In 1999, the blue ocean of the Internet opened, Ma Yun established Ali, and Li Guoqing and his wife established Dangdang.
Liu Qiangdong pondered the opening of chain stores in the outlet of the Internet, and in 2001, Jingdong became the largest optical and magnetic product agent in China at that time, with 12 branches.
"Heaven does not live up to people", Liu Qiangdong became a multi-millionaire.
However, a SARS, like a blunt knife, cut Zhongguancun to pieces, and countless people escaped from Zhongguancun.
Liu Qiangdong bought several boxes of instant noodles and ham sausages to take home to the employees to eat, and at this time, an employee suddenly said: "Offline sales can not be moved, it is better to sell online." ”
This sentence triggered Liu Qiangdong, who relied on the university programming foundation to knock out the Jingdong mall system, although it lost more than 8 million, but also let Liu Qiangdong see business opportunities.
In order to save money, he only rented a 14-square-meter office, where he ate and drank Lazarus, and lived for three years as soon as he lived.
Since this world does not belong to anyone, why can't I have a place?
Three years later, the Jingdong Mall was launched.
After SARS, capitalists have raised thousands of funds in the midst of the storm, constantly pushing various Internet companies to the road to listing.
At that time, JD.com, which also received $10 million in financing, continued to expand its category like crazy, and its sales skyrocketed.
Later, he insisted on doing JD.com's own logistics and ran horses across the country.
Later, Jingdong caught up with the blue ocean of China's e-commerce, and it developed wildly with a rapid and unstoppable trend, with an annual growth rate of 200%.
In 2014, 40-year-old Liu Qiangdong rang the bell for listing in the United States.
In 2015, Liu Qiangdong was shortlisted for Fortune's "50 Greatest Global Leaders".
He achieved his original dream and possessed a wealth that most people could not match.
But he is still the son of a peasant in his heart, still a relative in that yellow land.
After getting rich, he returned to his hometown with a stack of cash and gave 10,000 red envelopes to the elderly over the age of 60.
Because it is these old people who have five pieces of you and me, who can make up the key for him to open the door of Beijing.

Liu Qiangdong's women
Men's growth is always inseparable from women, whether it is the first love of the rich and noble Gong Xiaojing, the former Jingdong employee Zhuang Jia, the wife milk tea sister Zhang Zetian, these 3 have helped Liu Qiangdong's career to a certain extent.
Among them, the most well-known to the public is the marriage with the milk tea sister Zhang Zetian.
In 2013, when the development of Jingdong was in full swing, Zhang Zetian became popular throughout the Internet with the fame of "Milk Tea Sister" and went to Colombia to exchange studies, at that time, Liu Qiangdong also came to Columbia University to study.
The two met during a dinner party and quickly fell in love.
In 2014, the two opened their relationship, and in 2015, they successfully completed their marriage, and in 2016, they gave birth to the crystallization of love.
Since then, every time the two are in the same frame, it must show that you have me, I have you, which also makes the couple become the end of love that many men and women are fascinated by.
And what Zhang Zetian brought to Liu Qiangdong, who does not know the beauty of his wife, is actually not only beautiful, her more important significance on Jingdong is to be able to carry out corporate public relations efforts alone or with Liu Qiangdong.
In the case that JD's public relations has been crushed by Ali public relations, she alone easily helped JD.com save hundreds of millions of public relations costs.
It can be said that Liu Qiangdong also needs the help of Zhang Zetian in some aspects, and Zhang Zetian, who is also next to Liu Qiangdong, has obtained great wealth and a vast network of resources.
In 2018, after Liu Qiangdong slept in the bed of Liu Jingyao, a female college student in Mingzhou, after a long time, she responded in a circle: "As long as the family is together, it is perfect." Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! May the clouds be open and the moon be seen. ”
This made everyone a little surprised, because everyone thought that Zhang Zetian, who was on the cusp of the storm, would decisively divorce and take half of his wealth alone and be beautiful, but this weak woman resolutely stood with her husband.
Many people say that this is because of love, in fact, before someone broke out, Liu Qiangdong and Zhang Zetian before marriage, has already done property division, so Zhang Zetian divorce can not share half of the family property.
Therefore, her actions are not all because of love, but the most preferred under the interest.
Zhang Zetian, she is smart, she has always been in her own plan, step by step to success, escort Tsinghua, enter the Nanjing TV internship, seize the opportunity, as an exchange student to Go to Barnard Women's College in New York for exchange.
And by chance, I met Liu Qiangdong, perhaps in a different place, from the heart-to-heart communication between compatriots, and perhaps because I was deliberately scheming to seduce people.
Zhang Zetian took a short time to win Liu Qiangdong and obtained his own high-society admission ticket, even if she stood with Deng Wendi, she was not afraid of the stage, and she still stood in the C position.
There is a line in the movie "A Generation of Grandmasters": The wind flow is a dream. Some people say that silk is not as good as bamboo, bamboo is not as good as meat, and it is far better to sing than to say.
But she is still firm in the marriage, cooperating with Liu Qiangdong to perform one love performance after another, but it can be seen that there is no admiration and love in her eyes, only full of reason and depth.

And finally
Speaking of Liu Qiangdong, even if the incident changed from criminal to civil, his image eventually fell.
I have to say that as a married CEO of a public company, even if you stop and think for a few seconds before entering the room, you may not have today.
You know, it takes decades to become a well-known entrepreneur.
Destroying a well-known entrepreneur is enough for one night.
Therefore, this night of spring supper joy, in exchange for JD.com's stock price fell sharply, is really not worth it.
It can only be said that for Liu Qiangdong, what has happened has been irreparable.
But for other people who shoulder heavy responsibilities, it is undoubtedly a wake-up call, alerting people, the road is long, the task is heavy and the road is long, in addition to seeking up and down, it is even more necessary to take virtue as the first.
