Chapter 503: Mr. Qi
As the time gets closer to August 1st, Xu Liang becomes busier and busier.
Almost all top financial institutions including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan, Deutsche Bank, UBS, and HSBC require him to meet in person.
In order to pave the way for Hongmeng’s development, these top institutions will obtain shares of Hongmeng as long as they meet basic conditions, such as accepting investment requirements of 55 times net profit.
But who gets more and who gets less needs Xu Liang to carefully weigh.
The criterion for weighing is who can provide benefits other than money.
Because each company has different judgments on the value of Hongmeng, the conditions for exchanging shares will naturally vary.
But because there is still plenty of time, neither party is in a hurry.
“Mr. Xu, this is the list of institutions that have signed up to participate in Hongmeng’s Series B financing.”
Took the document from Lu Hui’s hand.
"Have all 34 companies arrived in Beijing?"
"Yes."
Since Hongmeng Company called out the standard negotiation condition of at least 55 times net profit, and also gave Hongmeng Company a copy After the 2003 mid-term report, the number of more than 70 investors who initially signed up for Hongmeng financing dropped by more than half.
Those who stay now and come to the capital are basically the top tycoons in the financial field.
The worst among them are Li Jiacheng and SoftBank.
"Give the list to the administrative department and let them maintain communication."
"Yes."
Lu Huigang left.
Dong dong..., there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Looking at Xie Wen who came in through the door, Xu Liang smiled and stood up to greet him.
"Lao Xie, why are you here? Sit down quickly."
The two sat down on the sofa in the reception area.
“We are almost done negotiating with Oceanwide Group. We will acquire Lianzhong Games as a whole with 430 million Chinese currency in cash and 210 million Chinese currency in debt, for a total consideration of 640 million Chinese currency.”
< br>As he said that, Xie Wen placed the initialed contract in front of Xu Liang.
Picked it up and looked at it briefly.
Compared to the real value of Lianzhong Games, this acquisition price is slightly higher, but not much.
Put down the information.
“Have you talked to Bao Yueqiao?”
“Not only Bao Yueqiao, I also met with Jian Jing and Wang Jianhua. After they saw the mobile phone system presentation we provided, Very interested.”
"That's good. After the contract is signed, Lianzhong Games' website and games will be integrated into the Sina Game Hall. All Lianzhong's R&D personnel will undergo an assessment. After passing the assessment, they will join Hongmeng Research Institute to be responsible for the research and development of the 'Hongmeng Mobile System' "
"I think so too."
After the two reached an agreement, Xie Wen continued.
"Have you contacted Mr. Qiubo?"
"I have contacted him and made an appointment to meet tonight." Xu Liang said.
"That's good. If we set up the Hongmeng Research Institute earlier, we can advance the research and development of the 'Hongmeng Mobile System' earlier." Xie Wen said.
He couldn't wait any longer.
"Haha, Lao Xie. Don't be too impatient. With the current technical conditions, it will take at least three or four years, or even longer, for the Hongmeng mobile phone system to come out and be of use value. We We still have to wait.”
“I know, but I really can’t wait to see this epoch-making invention born in China. By then, those foreigners will slander us and there will be no invention. Hit them in the face with the Hongmeng mobile phone system."
Looking at his angry look, Xu Liang laughed.
"The prejudice in people's hearts is like a big mountain, and it is not easy to change. Moreover, it is not something that can be changed by one or two things or a few inventions."
Before his rebirth, Huaxia Great development of science and technology.
Even though Huaxia has become the first in the world in patent registration, valid patent registration, and number of citations, there are still countless people slandering it.
Of course, it is too early to say this now.
“I understand the truth, but it’s hard to calm down. When I was studying in the United States, I still remember that contemptuous look in my eyes. After I graduated, I quickly chose to return to China, just because I wanted to use own capabilities to develop China's high-tech industry
It's a pity that I overestimated my ability and achieved nothing after more than ten years.
Thankfully I met Mr. Xu, otherwise I would have lost my confidence and drifted with the crowd. ”
Xu Liang still admires this.
"Lao Xie, China is developing rapidly. I believe that we will all see the day when she becomes a world power in our lifetime."
"Yes."
The two chatted for a while about integrating Lianzhong Games. After the incident, Xie Wen left.
Looked at the time.
Xu Liang picked up the phone and dialed. It rang for a while and then connected.
“Hey, Mom, it’s me.”
“Liangzi, what’s wrong?”
“I have to see a client tonight, so I won’t go back for dinner.”
“Meeting customers again? In the past half month, you have had too many customers, right? This has happened several times.”
"Mom, didn't I tell you? My company needs financing, and now is a critical moment..."
"Stop, stop, you don't have to tell me. I'm too old to understand you. These are business matters, but I want to tell you that career is career, but don’t neglect your family, especially Xiaoyang. Make more phone calls and keep in touch with girls.
If we don’t contact you for a long time, the relationship will fade away.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll call Xiaoyang after I hang up.”
“That’s pretty much it. But let me tell you, Xiaoyang is my favorite daughter-in-law. If you lose her, I won’t take care of you.”
"No, didn't you say yesterday that Yuhui would be your daughter-in-law?" Xu Liang said with a smile.
Wang Lingxiang became angry and said, "Bad boy, if you weren't messing around outside, would I have warned you like this? Who am I for..."
"Mom, hey, hey, mom, you Can you hear me?"
"Xu Liang, don't do this to me..."
"Mom, there's something wrong with my phone. I can't hear you clearly. It’s dead.”
Quickly hanging up the phone, Xu Liang couldn't help but sigh.
Alas….
He found that bringing his parents with him seemed like a mistake for him.
Without the farm work in the fields, I put almost all of my energy on his life-long affairs, which was really annoying.
Shaked his head, simply packed up the documents on his desk, got up and left the office.
——
Box No. 28, Sixi Building.
This is the lowest herringbone box among the third-class boxes of Tiandiren.
Although it is the lowest grade, the decoration is not bad. The exquisite palace lanterns, the huge blue and white porcelain in the corner, the exquisite painted landscapes and meticulous flowers and birds on the wall are all carefully thought out.
The only drawback is that compared with the Tianzihao box and the Dizihao box, the area is smaller.
In the room of more than 20 square meters, there was only one round table.
But it is enough for Xu Liang, who only entertains a few guests. A larger box is also a waste, and it is better to use it to make money.
After all, Sixi Building is also his property to some extent.
Looking at the man opposite who was wearing a simple white T-shirt and with short, energetic hair, looking like a college student who had just left school, Qiubo Jun felt very responsible.
He is a self-proclaimed genius. He has been someone else's child since he was a child. Later, he developed the WPS1.0 version by himself and became what others call China's number one programmer.
Although he is always modest in front of others, he values this title in his heart and is proud of it.
He is not lacking in perseverance. He can be willing to be lonely, have no social contacts, and have no friends. He keeps himself in a room for a year and a half, not caring about his body, just seeking success.
Looking around the world, you can't find anyone more ruthless and persevering than him.
He was also successful enough. At the age of 24, he earned his first million with WPS. Later, he skyrocketed and became the most successful technology tycoon in China in the 1980s and 1990s.
Unfortunately, all this success is like a joke in front of the person opposite.
He succeeded at the age of 24. He had already established his first company when he was 19, and gained a net worth of over 10 million that year.
When he was 25 years old, he developed Jinshan Company. He still remembers how proud he was after the success of WPS1.0.
But when he was 20 years old, he was already the richest man in China.
What’s even more remarkable now is that a long-term oil speculation directly earned more than 10 billion US dollars, making Hanhua Capital the top private equity institution in the world.
Hongmeng is developing rapidly. In less than four years, it is said to be valued at more than 30 billion US dollars, which is comparable to top Internet companies such as Yahoo, Amazon, and eBay.
In contrast, in recent years, he has been getting more and more mixed up.
Ignoring the objections of the company's management, he blindly reached a cooperation agreement with Microsoft, which dealt a heavy blow to Jinshan. It was only because of his selling houses and cars that he brought the company back from the brink of bankruptcy.
The introduction of Lenovo in the middle helped the company survive the crisis, but it also lost control of the company.
Until now, with the success of "The Online Version of Jin Yong's Legend of Heroes", Kingsoft has truly overcome the crisis and embarked on the path of development.
But all of this is incomparable in front of Hongmeng.
"Sir, please, Sixi Tower's Beijing cuisine is very authentic, you might as well try it." Xu Liang said with a smile.
After gathering his thoughts, Mr. Qiubo smiled and nodded, then picked up his chopsticks and ate some.
“I heard that Mr. Xu is a frequent visitor to Sixi Building?”
Xu Liang nodded and said, “I like to eat more, and the food here is more to my liking.”
"It tastes really good." Mr. Qiubo put down the chopsticks in his hand, "Mr. Xu, let's get down to business first, otherwise I won't be able to eat this meal safely."
"No problem."
Xu Liang also put down his chopsticks.
“I am the first to make a name for myself. Xishan Residence is my hard work and I will not sell it.” Qiu Bojun said.
