Looking at Zhang Xiaolong in front of him, Zhang Chaoyang held up his glasses.
Some time ago, it was rumored that Starlight Group wanted to do a search engine.
Now that Zhang Xiaolong has come to the door, it seems that those rumors are true.
Learned that Starlight Group planned to be a search engine, and the CEO came to the door.
Zhang Chaoyang's mind also began to become active.
Although the development model proposed by Wang Xiaochuan before did allow him to see the possibility of Sogou being successful as a search engine.
But after all, there is whiteness in front, and Sogou is a latecomer.
The best possibility is just to be a thousand-year-old second.
And now with Starlight Group, the situation is different.
Internet companies across the country know that the traffic of Starlite Group's products is amazing.
If these products are drained, it seems that it is not impossible for Sogou to surpass whiteness.
After a moment of contemplation, Zhang Chaoyang showed a signature smile and said to Zhang Xiaolong:
"Starlight Group wants to be a search engine, and as an old Internet company, I naturally have to support you."
In this way, I don't want a penny, Sogou's team will give it directly to you.
Mr. Zhang, how do you look? Faced
with Zhang Chaoyang's proposal to give it directly, Zhang Xiaolong did not have the slightest excitement.
He is not a fool, free is the most expensive.
Judging from the other party's performance, Zhang Xiaolong also guessed his thoughts.
Helplessly sighed lightly, and said slowly:
"Say, what do you want in Mr. Zhang?"
"Okay, direct enough, then I won't hide it."
Zhang Chaoyang smiled and put down his glasses again and continued:
"I remember that Starlight acquired a website called hao123 not long ago.
It is better to directly combine Starlight's current search engine team, plus this hao123, and Sogou's team to form a new company.
I don't know what you think, Mr. Zhang? Saying
that, Zhang Chaoyang looked at Zhang Xiaolong in front of him with a smile.
Sure enough, if you don't want money, you only want shares.
However, in the face of Zhang Chaoyang's question, Zhang Xiaolong did not answer positively, but instead changed his tone and said:
"In this way, Starlight Group is willing to offer 200 million yuan to buy the entire Sogou team, what do you think of Mr. Zhang?"
Two hundred million is already Starlight's highest valuation for Sogou, and now it depends on how Zhang Chaoyang chooses.
Hearing Zhang Xiaolong's offer, Zhang Chaoyang, who was originally smiling, was slightly stunned.
If the previous eighty million, he still had the confidence to refuse directly.
Today's 200 million is not so easy.
Don't look at Sohu's current market value of more than one billion US dollars, but really talk about the cash on the account, that is, the scale of two or three hundred million RMB.
Faced with Zhang Xiaolong's offer, he hesitated.
That's 200 million in cash.
No matter how dashing Zhang Chao's masculine personality is, it is difficult to refuse directly.
After some inner struggle, he finally stuck to his previous choice.
Shaking his head, he said, "
Let's talk about the previous plan."
Although 200 million in cash is difficult to give up, discerning people can see that they can earn more by taking shares.
In the face of Zhang Chaoyang's insistence, Zhang Xiaolong stopped talking nonsense, and asked lightly:
"Say, how many shares do you want from President Zhang?"
"33%, after the establishment of the new company, Sohu accounted for 33% of the shares, and the remaining 67% went to Starlight Group, how about it?"
Zhang Chaoyang said very seriously, as if he felt that Sogou could really be worth so much.
And after listening to Zhang Chaoyang's conditions, Zhang Xiaolong got up directly, did not turn his head, and planned to leave.
"Alas, Mr. Zhang, are you leaving?"
Faced with Zhang Xiaoliang's violent reaction, Zhang Chaoyang was dumbfounded on the spot and quickly stretched out his hand to hold back.
Seeing that the other party was retained, Zhang Xiaolong sneered and said lightly:
"Since President Zhang, you are not sincere, then is it necessary for me to stay here?"
"This..."
Zhang Chaoyang couldn't help frowning when he heard this, didn't he know that Starlight bought hao123 for a hundred million?
The entire Sogou team only accounts for 33% of the new company, is he not sincere enough?
"I, Zhang Chaoyang, think that I am already very sincere this time. Mr. Zhang, you make it clear, where did I provoke you to react like this?.
Zhang Chaoyang asked with a frowning expression.
Looking at Zhang Chaoyang's reaction, it made Zhang Xiaolong obviously puzzled.
Zhang Xiaolong originally thought that Zhang Chaoyang was playing on himself, and it seemed that the other party's appearance seemed to really not know the value of hao123.
After figuring this out, Zhang Xiaolong's expression gradually softened, and he slowly said:
"President Zhang, let me tell you like this."
Whiteness exceeds 40% of the visits, which are diverted from hao123.
Zhang Xiaolong's words exploded in Zhang Chaoyang's mind like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
No wonder....
No wonder Starlight Group, which originally did not have any search accumulation, suddenly wanted to be a search engine.
40% of the visits, doesn't it mean that as long as the search engine accesses hao123, it directly has half the volume of whiteness?
This....
If it was him Zhang Chaoyang, he also had to run into the field.
I didn't expect a small navigation website to have such a lot of energy.
No, if it directly has half the whiteness.
So the market value of this new company must not start at 3 billion RMB?
No wonder Zhang Xiaolong's reaction was so big just now.
After figuring out the situation, Zhang Chaoyang couldn't help but feel a little hot.
You know, just now he was ashamed to say that he thought he was sincere.
"Mr. Zhang doesn't need to care, after all, I really didn't inform the information in advance."
Seeing the embarrassment on Zhang Chaoyang's face, Zhang Xiaolong did not embarrass the other party anymore, and opened his mouth to give the other party a step.
With this step, Zhang Chaoyang also went down the slope to the donkey and said with a smile.
"Since Mr. Zhang gives face, then I will also give Mr. Zhang a face."
I don't want shares either, just come at the previous price of 200 million. That
being said, this is also Zhang Chaoyang's own considerations.
After all, if the valuation is 3 billion, the Sogou team can also account for 5% of the shares.
Although according to Starlite's operation, the valuation increase is a sure thing.
But this 5% stake will not affect anything.
It is better to exchange it directly into cash, just as Sohu is laying out the online game industry, and the requirements for funds are relatively high.
"Happy cooperation!"
Zhang Xiaolong smiled and stretched out his right hand.
Although the process had some ups and downs, the final result also achieved Zhang Xiaolong's demands.
"Haha, happy cooperation."
Zhang Chaoyang is also very satisfied with this transaction, after all, no matter how he cooperates, he is not at a loss.
After cooperating with Starlight City, Zhang Chaoyang also wanted to leave Zhang Xiaolong for a meal.
But Zhang Xiaolong's mind is now full of search engine things, how can there be this idle work.
After meeting with Wang Xiaochuan, the person in charge of Sogou, he directly ordered the manpower of the Starlight Jingcheng branch to draw up an acquisition contract overnight.
Early the next morning, at Sohu's headquarters, Sogou's acquisition agreement was signed.
.............
PS: Although the goal of urging the change was not achieved, the tip income exceeded 50 yuan, plus a chapter.
Three more requirements, urge to change 2600 or gift income more than 50.
Rush Rush!
