Yesterday evening, the media quoted so-called informed sources as saying that " Derbet and Uber have reached a merger and the two parties will jointly announce this news in the near future" and stated that:
The source did not disclose more transaction details to Chang Gengjun, but said that the merger can refer to the 2015 drop-and-fast merger case. At the beginning of 2015, Didi and Fast announced their merger. Then, based on the Didi team, the fast team was integrated. According to reports, after this merger is also integrated into Uber.
Zhu Xiaohu, a venture capital partner of Disha Investment Partners Jin Shajiang, recently stated that the other party claimed that the matter was a rumor and stated that the rumors had been reported from the beginning last year. The outside world should not take it seriously.
Since the media reported on July 21, informed sources disclosed that a number of institutional investors are currently pushing Uber and Didi to "sharpen and agree" and seek to sign a "cooperation agreement" to end the money-burning war in China. The industry’s rumors about the merger of the two taxi services have become more intense, stating that both parties have common investors and speculate that the two companies will move toward a republica from favorable conditions such as market share. At the same time, however, some analysts also said that both parties are currently poor, and after the merger, they have even more strangulated the creation space of the two sides, which is unfavorable to the market and negates the possibility of the merger of Uber China and Didi Chuxing. As for the truth, we will continue to pay attention.
