Reborn As The Billionaire National Husband, The Boss Of Populus Euphratica!
Chapter 55: Wang Cong Has Both Sides (5, Please Vote For Flowers)
One thing to say.
Sitting in front of Ma Xiaoyun, although there was nothing visible on the surface, Wang Cong was still a little excited in his heart.
In his previous life, he was just a polite scum who hung out in Hengdian. He could usually coax the female college students, but in front of a big shot like Ma Xiaoyun, Wang Cong knew very well that he was nothing.
so.
In order to avoid showing his cowardice, he simply didn't talk about anything specific with Ma Xiaoyun.
Relying on the foresight in his mind, Wang Cong used the Yanjing people's favorite method to deal with Ma Xiaoyun.
Talk about mountains!
It is said that Ma Xiaoyun is eloquent and best at deceiving others, so Wang Cong will use his best method to deal with him.
"Uncle Ma, are you interested in Weibo because Penguin is also working on this project?"
Wang Cong asked Ma Xiaoyun bluntly.
When it comes to the Internet, Penguin and Alibaba are naturally unavoidable topics.
Although the two companies had different starting points from the very beginning.
But as the company went public, they felt more and more clearly that the existence of the other party was a threat to their own company.
Not an exaggeration.
Ma Huateng and Ma Xiaoyun will definitely not become collaborators.
the reason is simple.
Because they all want to be the first person on the Internet.
Although Penguin Group started late in the field of e-commerce, it did not hesitate to invest in JD.com and gave Liu Qiangdong strong support. The goal is naturally to hope that he can carry the banner against Alibaba.
As for Ali, the goal of the big entertainment plan is also directly aimed at Penguin Group.
to be honest.
The competition between the two companies has already begun, overtly and covertly.
The Penguin Group launched Penguin Taotao as a Weibo project.
Ma Xiaoyun naturally cannot sit still and wait for death.
Having seen the glory of the blog era and witnessing how Penguin developed, he certainly would not allow himself to miss the Weibo project again.
so.
As soon as Wang Cong's Sohu Weibo appeared, Ma Xiaoyun was almost ecstatic.
He felt that this was a very good opportunity.
One month after it was launched, the total number of users reached more than 100 million thanks to Sohu's traffic and the popularity of the Olympic Games.
But just the number of 100 million user registrations has left everyone stunned.
more importantly.
Ma Xiaoyun believes that this is just the beginning.
Wang Cong, a young man, may really be able to add some surprises to the domestic Internet industry.
"You little guy."
Hearing Wang Cong's question, Ma Xiaoyun laughed: "Do you think it is possible for Weibo to become a company like Yahoo or Facebook?"
"impossible."
Wang Cong shook his head decisively: "Not to mention Yahoo, even Facebook and Weibo cannot reach that level."
"That's it."
Ma Xiaoyun frowned, obviously a little disappointed.
However, Wang Cong's next words stunned Ma Xiaoyun.
"Although it cannot become Facebook, Weibo can still develop very well. At the very least, it will not develop worse than ordinary Internet companies, because our country has enough Internet users."
Wang Cong looked at Ma Xiaoyun and said seriously.
Ma Xiaoyun was startled, and then the expression on his face became wonderful.
He had to admit.
Wang Cong is right.
The number of skilled Internet users in our country is increasing at a ridiculous growth rate every year.
in other words.
These people will all be potential users of Weibo, and it is precisely because of this.
As Wang Cong said, Weibo may not necessarily become a social networking site like Facebook, but it will definitely develop very well.
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaoyun smiled: "Xiao Cong, according to your statement, doesn't it mean that your valuation of Sohu Weibo is actually very conservative?"
"well enough."
Wang Cong nodded and said frankly: "I estimate that the future market value of this company will exceed US$5 billion."
! ! ! !
! ! ! !
Hearing this number, even though Ma Xiaoyun was well-informed, he was stunned at this time.
Because he really didn't expect that Wang Cong would give Weibo such a high valuation.
That's when.
Wang Cong's phone rang.
It's Jian Hongcheng!
Wang Cong didn't waste any time and answered the phone in front of Ma Xiaoyun.
"Mr. Jane, what's the matter?"
Wang Cong asked straight to the point.
"Mr. Wang, after our discussions with the headquarters, the company is willing to purchase 10% of Sohu Weibo's shares for US$100 million."
Jian Hongcheng's voice came from the other side of the phone.
One hundred million US dollars, 10% of the shares!
in other words.
Sequoia Capital has approved Wang Cong’s idea of valuing Sohu Weibo’s first round of financing at one billion US dollars.
Wang Cong showed a smile: "Okay, then we will sign the contract tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, he looked at Ma Xiaoyun: "Uncle Ma, I'm sorry, the company's current valuation is already one billion US dollars."
"What?"
Ma Xiaoyun was suddenly startled.
Wang Cong shrugged: "Jian Hongcheng from Sequoia Capital just called me. They are going to buy 10% of my equity for US$100 million. Of course, I will only give them 5% of the voting rights."
Hearing these words, Ma Xiaoyun could no longer remain calm.
He looked at Wang Cong's smiling face and said word for word: "Did you tell them about our meeting?"
obviously.
It was impossible for the other side to suddenly agree to sign the contract for no reason.
Wang Cong smiled and nodded: "I think this is normal. After all, we shop around. By the same token, if I want to sell my shares at a high price, I will also compare the prices you two offer, right? "
Looking at that innocent face, Ma Xiaoyun was stunned.
He didn't expect that this little guy Wang Cong would use himself to force Sequoia Capital into the game.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that Wang Cong is right.
He went public to raise funds, not for charity.
Since there is an opportunity to maximize profits, there is no need to be polite.
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaoyun also laughed.
"In that case, how about you sell me 20% of Sohu Weibo's shares?"
Ma Xiaoyun looked at Wang Cong and said slowly.
When he thought about it, since Wang Cong planned to sell his shares in exchange for cash, he would definitely not refuse his proposal.
Unexpectedly, Wang Cong shook his head slightly: "Twenty percent is too much. If you want to buy my shares, then I'm sorry, the maximum is 10%, and the voting rights are the same as Sequoia Capital. Only Five percent.”
He is not a fool. If he wants shares, he can sell some for cash. Wang Cong doesn't mind.
But voting rights are related to the control of the company. Wang Cong will not sell them before Weibo goes public.
PS: Please give me flowers, review votes, and rewards. If the flowers can reach 40,000, the review votes can reach 2,000, or the monthly votes can reach 50, I will update it ten times today! Never break your promise, if you can't do it you're a bastard!
