Chapter 194: Facing the stock god Buffett, the financial giant’s final plan
“Chen Xing is going to expand into the international market. If I guess correctly, he will use the Southeast Asian market to reverse the desperate situation facing the company.”
Peninsula Seoul.
Korean Star Group Chairman’s Office.
Li Zhenzhen, still wearing a suit and trousers, dressed in simple black business clothes, just walked into the office and looked at Li Zaiyong who was still working in the office and went straight to the topic.
She didn't pause when she spoke. She went straight to the sofa in the negotiation area and sat down, taking out the cigarettes she often smoked from her pocket.
“International?”
Lee Jae-yong was stunned. He just didn’t pay attention to the Longguo market for a few days. Did Longxing Technology get rid of the sanctions and move towards the international market?
"Pa-ta-"
Li Zhenzhen lit a cigarette, took a deep breath and exhaled lightly: "Well, judging from his current actions, he is going international, and he is still Use the same old routine.”
"Old routine? What routine is it?"
Lee Jae-yong closed the folder and came to the sofa in the negotiation area to sit down.
Li Zhenzhen looked at Li Zaiyong, who had a learning attitude, and explained: "Low-price coverage, multiple harvests."
"The rapid rise of Longxing Technology was due to the use of The low-price strategy grabbed a large amount of market share, and then launched two sub-brands with medium and high positioning. "
"This is like building a house. Users are the foundation. Get the users first and build the foundation later. Slowly consider the construction on the ground.”
“If it’s not what I expected, he still wants to gain users at low prices. He will first stabilize his basic position and then launch other brands, and has repeatedly harvested customers in Southeast Asia. User. "
"The most important thing here is that once Longxing Technology is allowed to gain a foothold in Southeast Asia, the joint restrictions of the United States will be a joke and will not shake its foundation at all. It should still make profits, so this time the West will not If we leave it alone, the Southeast Asian market will be a fist-to-flesh fight.”
Fight-to-fist fight, Li Zhenzhen bites very hard in this paragraph.
Although she is only a girl, her strategic vision is no worse than that of top CEOs, and even far surpasses it.
There is no need to question her ability to turn a hotel business on the verge of bankruptcy into a pillar with a market value of hundreds of billions.
The most important thing is that the hotel business belongs to her personally, and it is one of the few businesses that the Li brothers and sisters can fully control.
“In other words, the Southeast Asian market is destined to become a certain party’s graveyard.” Lee Jae-yong’s expression became more solemn, but excitement flashed deep in his pupils.
He has been waiting for this opportunity for too long!
Fish in troubled waters and take advantage of the opportunity, this is his specialty.
As soon as the joint sanctions announcement was issued, he had urgent discussions with Li Zhenzhen to dump the entire inventory of his M5 screens and Orion 5433 chips to Chen Xing for what purpose?
Very simple.
He just wants to muddy the situation.
Only by muddying the situation can they benefit from it.
The short selling of Gaotong and Apple during this period has made him and a certain Wall Street giant more than 30 billion US dollars in profit.
Since the announcement of the fifth generation information and communication technology, the stock prices of these two companies have been falling basically every day, and Gaotong Company is like taking laxatives and cannot stop at all.
"That's right."
Li Zhenzhen responded and continued his analysis:
"Currently in Southeast Asia, Apple mobile phones occupy the vast majority of the market share. The latest quarterly survey shows that 74%, regardless of the two If the positioning of mobile phones does not match, as long as the Longxing series enters the market, it will definitely affect Apple’s interests.”
Li Zhenzhen cast an admiring look, nodded and said: "It's an offensive and defensive battle. Apple needs to maintain its market share, while Chen Xing needs to open up, so it's hard to fight."
" But!"
She changed the topic and said with a smile: "The Longxing series has natural advantages, which can be said to be absolute advantages in line with the national conditions."
>
Lee Jae-yong had a flash of inspiration and quickly expressed his thoughts: "You are saying that the people in these countries do not have much disposable funds, and the Longxing series can just meet their budgets?"
"Yes."
Li Zhenzhen puffed out smoke.
She is very optimistic about Chen Xing's Longxing series, because to put it bluntly, the Southeast Asian market is a very large version of the sinking user market. What does this belong to?
Four words, professional counterpart!
A mobile phone brand designed for the sinking market, entering the international sinking market, what is this if not a professional counterpart?
After learning about Chen Xing’s movements, Lee Jae-yong asked Li Zhenzhen: “Then what should we do next?”
“Chen Xing sent me an email early this morning, saying that he hopes We can increase the supply of M5 screens and Orion 5433 chips, but I plan to stop the supply..."
Before Li Zhenzhen finished speaking, Li Zaiyong's expression changed and he asked hurriedly: "Stop the supply? Short selling..."
He did not say the last few words, because the walls have ears, and no one can guarantee that this place is absolutely safe.
They have witnessed the technological methods of the United States with their own eyes.
"Huh——"
Li Zhenzhen took a puff of cigarette and said calmly: "I have received definite news that Buffett, the stock god, is going to get involved. He is an unstable factor and has strong funds."
< br>During the pause, she took another drag on the cigarette and slowly exhaled: "In the Southeast Asian market, there will definitely be a price war to determine the winner. Chen Xing cannot beat Buffett."
"That one Are you involved too?” Li Zaiyong was stunned for half a second and asked, “What is he doing? And he’s going into an unknown area.”
“No one knows what he’s doing, but he’s a stock guy. With hundreds of billions of liquid dollars in hand, Chen Xing will not be his opponent."
"And!"
Li Zhenzhen paused for a moment and put out the cigarette in his hand. , looked directly at Li Zaiyong and said:
"Bai Lai Group and Linghang Group may also participate. In addition, I also got news that Ma Si Ke is also dissatisfied with Chen Xing's Longxing Technology. I don't know if he will will participate.”
“Once it is confirmed that they are all involved in this financial game, Chen Xing will face the financial giants in the entire Western world. Who can compare with these people in terms of financial strength alone?”< br>
Emotionally, she wanted to bet on Chen Xing, because this man had created too many miracles and had endless trump cards.
But reason tells her...
Chen Xing will lose!
Because this time the opponent is a financial consortium, a top consortium led by the stock god Buffett, how do you defeat this?
With his financial resources, he can subsidize Apple mobile phones to the same price as the Longxing series, achieving configuration crushing.
It’s very simple. If the iPhone 7 and Longxing X2 both cost 2,000 yuan, which phone will the user choose?
You don’t need to think about it to know that users will definitely rush into Apple phones without thinking.
The competition in the price war is financial resources. Chen Xing’s Longxing Technology seems to have a market value of hundreds of billions, but it is not listed and does not accept equity investment. Internal funds must be very limited.
Even if Longxing Technology announces its listing now, it is impossible to surpass Buffett's funds. The two funds are not at the same level.
Lee Jae-yong also felt that what Li Zhenzhen said made sense, and he immediately understood what she meant and said: "In this case, can we be bullish instead? I feel like we can make another profit."
< br>“No!”
Li Zhenzhen shook his head and said solemnly: "The situation this time is too complicated. There are experts behind their company. If we act rashly, we are likely to lose money."
"Just wait and see what happens?"
"No, while their attention is on Southeast Asia, our W series high-end flagship can also secretly exert its strength."
"I understand, the fisherman will benefit."
"That's right, let them fight in Southeast Asia. We mainly deal with developed countries, and this W series will definitely ignite the enthusiasm of global users."
...When Li Zhenzhen and Li Zaiyong were calculating their interests, something happened Just as the former inquired, Buffett is indeed making plans.
As a globally recognized stock god and one of the most famous financial giants on Wall Street, his investment career is full of legends.
The success of other capital giants basically had a torturous time, but his investment experience was basically smooth sailing.
Since he founded his first private equity fund at the age of 26, he has not lost a single year in 13 years. When he ended the private equity fund game at the age of 39, his personal assets had reached US$25 million.
To know.
That was US$25 million in 1968!
After that, he acted like a cheater, investing in See's Candy, The Washington Post, Coca-Cola, Longguo Petroleum...
Without exception.
All of them made him a lot of money.
And he also became the richest man in the world and became a well-known stock god.
For such a heavyweight giant, every move he makes is a benchmark for investors. Buffett has also recently acquired several media outlets in Southeast Asia, sending a strong investment signal.
As a financial giant, he is very aware of the importance of news dissemination.
While acquiring media, he also did not forget to discuss with the shopping platform, hoping to cut off Longxing Technology's sales channels from the source.
At this moment in Berkshire Hathaway in Omaha, the United States, Buffett is listening to his secretary’s report.
"Chief, Shopee, TiKi, and Lazada are all willing to cooperate. These are the top three shopping websites in Southeast Asia. Among them, Lazada is the first. However, it seems to be a Dragon Kingdom enterprise and belongs to Alibaba. We cannot Reach an acquisition idea with them."
"Can't it be acquired?" Buffett murmured, and then asked: "What is the willingness to cooperate expressed by the other two companies?"
"Both Shopee and TiKi have just started and are in urgent need of funds to expand their scale. Among them, TiKi is the largest online shopping platform in Vietnam, but it seems to have had financial problems recently, while Shopee is willing to be fully acquired."
The secretary answered quickly while holding the report.
“Tell me more about TiKi.”
Buffett grasped the key points.
Since it is the largest shopping platform in Yue Monkey Country, starting from it, as long as he can invest in it, he will have the right to speak.
“The CEO of TiKi said that they will not accept a complete acquisition, but they can transfer 20% of the equity and make us the second shareholder. The total price is 85 million US dollars.”
“It What is the annual revenue? ”
“Not yet announced”
"What about the quarter?"
"The quarterly revenue is 700 million U.S. dollars, and the forecast annual revenue is around 2.5 billion. The company's annual net profit may be less than 300 million."
Listening to the data, Ba Feite couldn't help but shook his head and said: "The net profit is so low, the price is really generous. Let's talk about Shopee."
"Shopee is headquartered in Singapore. It was established less than a year ago. Its main market is Throughout Southeast Asia, I heard that our company could transfer all the shares, but it would cost 2 billion U.S. dollars."
Buffett was silent.
He vaguely felt something was wrong.
What’s going on with these companies? Why do you feel that they are not for operating profit, but waiting for someone to take advantage of you?
Buffett has never been exposed to the Southeast Asian stock market, so he decided to be cautious and said: "Continue to talk, and if possible, let them come and talk to me face to face."
"Okay. .”
The secretary nodded.
After the secretary left, Buffett looked at the time on his watch, took out a white bottle from the drawer, poured out a few green capsules, took them, and continued to study the Southeast Asian stock market.
When dealing with unknown areas, he must be cautious and cautious.
……
The other side.
Dragon Kingdom Deep City.
After deciding to develop Paogouling and enter the Southeast Asian market, Chen Xing once again made an appointment with Fan Zhenhua, the president of Shenzhen Commercial Bank.
Early the next morning, Fan Zhenhua, a gentle man with elegant gold-rimmed glasses, waited early in the cold wind for Chen Xing to drive.
He rubbed his hands and looked around.
He did not dare to neglect Chen Xing, a big customer.
You must know that in the previous year, that is, 2014, Chen Xing used 200,000 square meters of wasteland as collateral to borrow 1.5 billion from their bank, allowing Shenzhen Commercial Bank to pay out year-end bonuses Double, and there is also a performance bonus.
What is this concept?
Let’s put it this way, it’s Fan Zhenhua’s total salary for half a year!
How dare he neglect such a big customer?
It wasn't just Fan Zhenhua blowing the cold wind, the two lobby managers were shivering in the cold wind, not daring to complain at all.
It’s approaching nine o’clock.
A sharp-eyed lobby manager stretched his neck and raised his voice: "Here we come, that Mercedes-Benz seems to belong to Mr. Chen."
A few people stared closely at the Mercedes-Benz at the corner in the distance. When the license plate number was revealed, Fan Zhenhua straightened his back instantly and said, "It's Mr. Chen. It's Mr. Chen's Mercedes-Benz. Stand up straight."
The two lobby managers straightened their backs instantly. When Chen Xing drove the car to the entrance of the bank, the three of them immediately stepped forward to greet him warmly.
"Mr. Chen, long time no see. Come on, let's go in and chat in detail."
"Mr. Chen, please give me your car keys and I will help you park the car."
< br>
"Yes, yes."
Chen Xing was not polite, handed the key to one of the lobby managers, then picked up the passenger's gray briefcase and said: "Thank you for your hard work, President Fan, let's go in and chat. ”
“This way, please.”
Fan Zhenhua made a gesture of invitation.
He noticed Chen Xing’s briefcase. Could it be that he was here to repay the loan?
Of course.
Whether it is repayment or loan, he will get benefits.
The two of them walked straight to the president's office of the commercial bank. As Fan Zhenhua closed the door, he immediately went to make tea and said, "I'll give Mr. Chen a cup of hot tea to warm up first."
"Don't go to so much trouble." Chen Xing waved his hand and reminded with a slightly teasing tone: "The amount of my loan this time is a bit large. President Fan should be prepared to ask for instructions from his superiors."
"Loan?"
Fan Zhenhua paused, put down the tea set and said: "How much does Mr. Chen want to borrow this time? If there is collateral, I can make the final decision within 2 billion."
Chen Xing raised his index finger, not yet When he had time to speak, Fan Zhenhua interrupted with a smile: "If you loan 1 billion, with the current market value of Longxing Technology and your worth, Mr. Chen, I can make a decision to lend you a loan now."
" No!"
1 billion was denied, Chen Xing looked directly into Fan Zhenhua's eyes and said solemnly: "I want to borrow 10 billion this time!"
