In July of the same year, Alibaba signed a stock option agreement with Shentong’s shareholders. During the three-year validity period, Alibaba can request to buy some shares of Shentong shareholders or some shares of Shentong. < p > < p > Shentong express said, “Jingdong thinks Alibaba is our major shareholder and it is their own mistake. Now the major shareholder is actually Chen Dejun, chairman of the company. Originally, Ali wanted to hold more than 30% of the shares, but the capital has not come in. We are a listed company, and we will issue an announcement if there is a change in equity.” < / P > < p > talking about the possible impact of the suspension of cooperation with Jingdong on Shentong express, Shentong express believes that Jingdong accounts for a small proportion in Shentong logistics, so the impact is small, and it may have a certain impact on customers and businesses. “We are a franchised enterprise. It is impossible for the headquarters to have direct business contact with JD. The main reason is that local merchants may choose Shentong express. I also apologize to the merchants and consumers. ” It is understood that the main business volume of Shentong express is on Taobao and tmall platforms. Shentong express said that it has not officially terminated the cooperation with Jingdong, but still hopes to communicate with JD. On the evening of August 18, the head of brand management department of Shentong express also sent an article in the circle of friends: Shentong is a third-party logistics company which has been established for 27 years, and our efforts are to better serve businesses and consumers, nothing else.
