Chapter 741 Reception
“Isn’t this just right? We bid alternately with Chevron, Unocal waited for the price, and finally Unocal was successfully sold to Chevron, and we exited without loss.
Also Being able to make a lot of money from stocks and bonds.
Both parties are happy," Xu Liang said with a smile.
"Unocal is still very valuable. Losing it is also a loss for us." Lu Hui said with some pity.
This is an oil asset worth more than 10 billion US dollars.
“It’s nothing to regret. Oil and natural gas, an important energy source that attracts international attention, cannot be used even if you have money.”
Look at the world’s oil giants, which one does not have a national background? ?
So Xu Liang is not that eager for Unocal.
It’s good to have it, but that’s it if it doesn’t exist.
"By the way, has Hongmeng submitted its financial report for this year?"
Otherwise, we can make a lot more.
Even higher than the local stock price of Yahoo in the United States.
The revenue structure has become healthier.
“Submitted.”
Japanese Capital and investors really like their Internet company.
After years of investment, Sina has developed a dazzling array of sub-businesses through sub-channels, and currently only Autohome and SouFun remain.
Mr. Wang hopes to obtain a valuation of 50 times net profit for listing, but Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs think it is too high.
Wangke is already a listed company, and its financial reports are independently calculated.
In 2004, the total revenue was 4.07 billion Chinese dollars, and the net profit exceeded 1.06 billion Chinese dollars, an increase of 269% over the same period last year.
Of course, if he had to do it all over again, he would still stick to the same choice as before.
Xu Liang nodded, thinking of Japan Yahoo, he really didn’t expect the other party’s stock price to rise to more than 50 billion US dollars.
Coupled with the revenue from Sina Sports, Tieba, Sina Game Hall, mailboxes and blogs.
The ‘wireless mobile’ business, which originally accounted for nearly half of Sina’s revenue, has now dropped to 35%.
Selling shares on a large scale requires a process, and it is impossible to sell just in time for 50 billion.
In terms of market, Sina is currently the largest portal website in China and Southeast Asia, with 160 million registered users and 330 million daily users.
Sina's main business is very strong and its development prospects are good.
Judging from the financial report, Sina's business development is still very good.
Autohome is already the largest automobile vertical website in China.
As for Universal Studios, it has been separated from Hongmeng and acquired by Hongyan.
The two sides are still talking. "
"Mr. Wang, you are the captain. Without you to control the direction, the big ship Sina would not develop so fast. "Lu Hui complimented.
In terms of new business, the number of registered Weibo users has exceeded 35 million.
The current market value of Yahoo is only about 40 times its net profit, leaving some room for a certain increase in the stock price. Space, they think 35 times is a reasonable number.
Yihaodian, Bing, Netcom, Kunlun, Kingsoft, Hongmeng Entertainment, Sina, Universal Pictures, Universal Music Group, DreamWorks Animation, Hongmeng. Head office.
"Mainly valuation.
The two sub-websites jointly contributed 33% of Sina's revenue.
SouFun is also the largest real estate website.
Because this year 5 It will be listed in March.
Unfortunately, his shares were sold when the market value was US$40 billion.
Lu Hui handed over the report.
Xu Liang smiled and did not continue the topic.
So it should be higher.
"Don't put a high hat on me, your boss, I don't need these achievements to decorate my appearance."
Xu Liang smiled and waved his hand.
Xu Liang looked at Sina emphatically.
Hongmeng’s statements are divided into 11 parts.
“Sina is still developing well in the hands of Lao Wang.” Xu Liang said with a smile.
Otherwise this is not called selling stocks, it is called selling.
“Although you are modest, this is a fact recognized by everyone outside.”
But Mr. Wang feels that Yahoo Japan’s valuation has reached 60 times net profit. The reason why Yahoo America’s valuation is low is that their main business is weak.
“Have the terms with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley not been reached yet?”
Not only does it cause hatred, but it also harms one’s own interests, which is not what a wise man would do.
"Mr. Xu, would you like to call and ask?"
Xu Liang thought for a while and shook his head.
"No, I believe Lao Xie and Wang Zhidong can handle this problem."
Although he said this, he also understood that it was highly unlikely that Sina could achieve a valuation of 50 times net profit.
After all, capital is not stupid.
Everyone can see the decline of Yahoo in the Internet industry.
Although there are certain differences between Sina and Yahoo's business, fundamentally speaking, it is still a portal website.
Therefore, capital will become cautious when valuing.
If it were replaced by Bing, let alone 50 times, it would be 60 times. Both Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs agree.
The development of Google in the six months since its listing is obvious to all.
To compare with this example, as the world's largest search website, Bing is the fattest piece of meat in the eyes of capital, and everyone wants to eat it.
In the six months since Google went public, he has received as many calls as Belden asking when Bing will go public.
After five years of development, Bing has become the world's largest search website excluding the English market.
Occupies 80% of the search market in East Asia and Southeast Asia, and 65% of the market in Europe.
As of now, Bing has 5.9 billion web pages of various types, reserves 1.57 billion answers, 320 million photos, 18.9 million books, and cooperates with more than 70,000 merchants around the world.
It has 19 data centers on five continents around the world, with a daily traffic of 560 million.
The total revenue for 2004 reached US$3.76 billion, with a net profit of US$780 million, a year-on-year growth rate of 439%. It is the one with the fastest growing business among the dozen or so subsidiaries of Hongmeng.
Now that Internet companies are becoming more and more popular, this is no longer fat meat, this is Tang Monk meat.
Every charming female fairy wants to take a bite.
"By the way, about the satellite, is there no news yet?"
"When Mr. Xie called to inquire, the other party said that they were still studying it and asked us to wait for news."
Xu Liang couldn't help but frown.
He found that he was a little passive in this matter.
If the above does not give accurate information, I will not be able to order satellites from the United States and Russia.
Otherwise, you will offend others.
Subconsciously, I wanted to pick up the phone and call Jiang Weiguo to ask about the situation, but after thinking about it, I forgot about it.
Jiang Xiaoyang gave birth to a child out of wedlock, and he didn't know what his father-in-law's attitude was towards him.
Let’s wait first.
I have been waiting for more than half a year, and it is not less than a month or two.
“Tell Lao Xie not to wait any longer and go directly to the top to ask.”
“Okay.”
Hongmeng has developed to the present and has become the world's top Internet company. It is also highly valued in China. If you want to directly contact Tianting, it is just a phone call away.
“Boss, we’re here.”
Huo Gang’s voice came.
Xu Liang looked outside, and sure enough he had arrived at the Sydney Opera House Hotel, where the business reception was held.
After getting off the bus, I glanced at the Sydney landmarks next to me and walked in.
Hand over the invitation letter and be led to the banquet hall by the waiter.
What you see are all well-dressed men and women wearing suits and evening gowns, holding wine glasses.
There are about two to three hundred people.
The large number was somewhat beyond his expectation.
However, Xu Liang had few friends in Australia, so he just wanted to find a place to sit down.
Several people hurriedly came forward.
The person walking at the front was a tall, middle-aged white man in a suit with a slender face.
"Mr. Xu, it is a great honor to invite you to today's cocktail party. I am Barnaby Joyce, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Trade of Australia."
"Mr. Joyce, It is also an honor for me to receive your invitation to attend today’s cocktail party.”
Both parties shook hands.
Looking at the tall, muscular and confident young man in front of him, Joyce was surprised by how young he was.
Originally, there was no need for his presence at today's reception.
But since learning that Xu Liang agreed to participate, the government department has raised the standards of the reception.
Not only that, after the news spread, many Australian business leaders also came.
"Mr. Xu, after learning that you were going to attend the reception, many successful people in the Australian business community also came here. If you don't mind, can I introduce it to you?"
< br>
"Of course I don't mind. I came to the reception this time mainly because I want to get to know my colleagues in the Australian business community."
"That would be great."
"Please."
"Please."
Joyce welcomed Xu Liang to the center of the banquet hall. An old white man wearing a navy suit and gold-rimmed glasses took the initiative to greet him.
Joyce smiled and said: "Let me introduce, this is Mr. Kelly Parker, the president of Australia's 9th Television Network."
Xu Liang smiled and extended his right hand to the other party.
"Hello, Mr. Xu."
"Mr. Parker, I have heard about you, Australia's richest man, for a long time."
"Haha, talking about it In terms of wealth, I am far behind Mr. Xu.”
Before Xu Liang came to attend today's cocktail party, he read the information collected by Lu Hui about Australian business leaders.
He was deeply impressed by Kyrie Parker, Australia's richest man.
Not because of how much money he has.
It’s what this guy did.
Not to mention asking his mistress to commit suicide for him.
The most impressive thing about this guy is his gambling prowess.
In 1987, he lost 19 million Australian dollars (equivalent to 114 million Chinese dollars) in one night in London.
Do you think this is the limit of dog betting?
NO!
In September 1999, Brother Parker gambled in London for three consecutive weeks and lost 28 million Australian dollars (equivalent to 168 million Chinese dollars), setting a record for the highest personal loss in British gambling history.
Tabloids around the world reported wildly.
Wild models from all over the world want to hook up with this big guy who throws money like water.
But this world's top gambler has the template of the protagonist.
The gambling table is full of arrogance, and the shopping mall is equally chaotic.
Not only did he not lose the wealth left by his father, he also bought the Australian Publishing and Broadcasting Co., Ltd., two television stations, two radio stations and many magazines, becoming Australia's largest media tycoon.
With a fortune of 6.9 billion Australian dollars (approximately 5 billion US dollars, 40 billion Chinese yuan), he was listed on the "Fox" "Global Rich List", ranking 94th.
Regarded as a legend.
"By the way, Mr. Xu, would you like to play a few games? This place is very close to my casino." Kelly Parker continued with a smile.
“Thank you, I’m not interested in gambling.”
“That’s such a shame.
Gambling is the most interesting thing in the world, and Mr. Xu can definitely give it a try. ”
