Top of the big era

On this day, Ziweixing held a temporary board meeting, which was actually a process, and Sun Zhengyi did not attend. It's useless to participate, Boss Zhou has the absolute right to speak.

At the board meeting, Zhang Yiming was officially appointed as the executive vice chairman and president of Ziweixing, responsible for the daily operation of Ziweixing Group. After the meeting, Zhou Buqi also explained the company's split plan to Zhang Yiming, He Yang, Guo Pengfei, Meng Houkun, Wang Haiyang, Ji Zian, Nie Caijun and other important executives.

This financial tsunami has dealt a fatal blow to the world economy.

Even if the global economy begins to recover and pick up in a few years, the aftermath of this economic crisis is obvious, and the global economic structure that has been in operation for 30 years has begun to be questioned.

The trend of anti-globalization has begun to appear around the world, and national sentiments have begun to rise in many countries around the world.

Under such circumstances, the life of multinational companies is not easy.

Even the back gardens of Silicon Valley like Europe have raised their wands against Silicon Valley giants. From Apple to Google, from Microsoft to Tesla, from Amazon to Facebook, they are basically queuing up to be beaten.

Instead of facing huge two-way pressure in the future, it is better to cut early and eliminate some particularly serious hidden dangers. Domestic and foreign players play their own games and are isolated from each other.

However, Ziweixing is a big company, and the cash on the account alone has 2.2 billion yuan plus 5.2 billion US dollars in foreign exchange.

How to split it up requires a very complicated and comprehensive financial calculation.

At this moment, all the core executives understood what Boss Zhou was planning.

No wonder he promoted Zhang Yiming to vice chairman, because he wanted to hand over all the domestic market to him, and he wanted to coordinate the global market.

Zhou Buqi explained, "Splitting is just a split of shares. A legal split is to prevent unexpected factors from uncontrollable changes in the international situation in the future. There will be no change in the company's operations. It also needs to be operated as a company. YikYak and Weibo are actually two names for a product at home and abroad, and they are one thing, and we still need to communicate with each other and work together.”

This kind of relationship is like Ali and Ant Financial in later generations. They are two companies in name, but they are actually one company. Alipay, like Tmall, Alibaba Cloud, and DingTalk, is the core business department of Ali, and will not affect business development due to changes in shareholding.

There will be no obstacles in the transfer of personnel. Ali’s employees can be assigned to Ant Financial at will, and Alipay’s employees must follow the arrangement and may work in a certain department of Ali at any time.

It's just that the handling is not as simple as that of a wholly-owned subsidiary, and some additional procedures such as secondment or business trip are required.

Nie Caijun asked: "What about the shares? Absolute holding or..."

Zhou Buqi said: "Don't take absolute control, so what's the point of splitting? Ziweixing Group's shareholding in Ziweixing International Group must ensure that after several rounds of dilution, after the IPO, it is enough to continue to hold 35% of the shares. gone."

"In what form will the remaining shares be distributed?"

"Exchange in proportion."

"Well, that's good. It won't harm the interests of minority shareholders. Everyone is happy."

Nie Caijun nodded, approving such a plan.

Zhou Buqi saw that none of the major shareholders present had any objections, so he made a decision, "Since there is no objection, then it is decided, split up! Cai Jun, you should find a professional accounting firm, domestic and international Find two sets of teams and make it clear."

Nie Caijun smiled and said, "No problem, I will do it."

At this time, He Yang suddenly said, "Ziweixing's split is a major event, you need to clear up the relationship. Now our country has spent a lot of money to open Confucius Institutes all over the world, to export culture, you do this..."

Zhou Buqi was very confident, "I know, I've done it all!"

"it is done?"

"Well, I did three things."

"Specifically?"

"First, I helped contact Microsoft to resolve the piracy and infringement issue. Microsoft promised not to sue on a large scale."

"This is what you should do."

He Yang didn't think it was worth showing off.

Zhou Buqi went on to say: "Now it's a financial crisis, a lot of foreign capital has withdrawn, and the domestic economy is under great pressure. This time I went abroad, and I contacted the Kuwait Sovereign Fund."

"Um?"

He Yang froze for a moment.

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "They promised to invest about 5 billion U.S. dollars in China, um! Invest in big A-shares! I will help lead the way, help them connect with relevant departments, and open an investment license. This kind of sovereign fund does everything It is a long-term investment, and it is the dollar of the Middle East, and there is nothing irrelevant.”

All the people present were stunned.

I go!

Boss Zhou, what did you do when you went abroad this time? Didn't I hear that you went to buy a Premier League club? How did you get involved with the local tyrants in the Middle East?

He Yang has a better understanding of the international situation and is very happy for him.

This is a big deal.

The strategic significance is far from measurable by money. It helps the country to open up the relationship with the oil mainstream countries.

Oil in the Middle East is a strategic commodity, and the whole world is scrambling for it. High-quality oil countries such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Bahrain are all in the Western camp. The rest are war-torn and non-mainstream countries.

Although Kuwait is a small country, it is already very stable and has a very stable crude oil output.

In peaceful times, the deeper the economic ties, the stronger the relationship. The more Kuwait invests and earns in the country, the more stable the interests of both sides will be.

"What about the third point?"

"Donate."

"Donation?"

"Yes, after Ziweixing is split, I will promise to donate all the shares I personally hold in Ziweixing Group."

"hiss!"

Many young people were stunned.

Donate all your stock?

What a struggle!

Meng Houkun exaggeratedly said: "Old Zhou, have you drunk too much?"

Zhou Buqi said: "You just drank too much! Pattern! Do you understand pattern? What's wrong with the donation? It's a policy to get rich first and then get rich. If you don't understand, go home and ask your father!"

Meng Houkun curled his lips, "Then you can't donate all of it?"

Zhou Buqi said: "Who said that all of them were donated? Didn't they split up? I didn't commit to Ziweixing's overseas stocks. Besides, even if the overseas business stocks are all donated, so what? Sacrifice the ego and achieve success." Big me, I can still do it.”

"hehe!"

"hehe!"

"hehe!"

There were sneers one after another.

There were no outsiders present, they were all old people who started a business with Zhou Buqi, and they were very accurate about the big boss's disposition. These words are false and true, but you can't believe them all.

Guo Pengfei tentatively said, "Boss Zhou means...to donate his personal holdings? Doesn't include the indirect holdings of Polaris Venture Capital? That's right, if all the stocks are donated, how can you control the company?"

Zhou Buqi was a little helpless, it seemed that this group of people were still young and did not understand the long-term significance of this. In other words, private entrepreneurs in China are still relatively poor, and the donation culture has not yet really emerged.

In a few years, the richest private entrepreneurs, in addition to corporate donations, don't individual donations get hundreds of millions or billions every year?

Instead of donating under the pressure of wealth distribution policies, it is better to take the initiative to donate, which can not only leave a good impression on the public and leaders, but also win the reputation of a national entrepreneur.

In contrast, the domestic donation environment is too friendly.

There are options.

You can donate or not.

If the public accuses someone of not donating, there will be suspicion of forced donations. This is much friendlier than America. On the surface, the United States is free to donate money, but in fact it must be donated, just like the country must honor parents.

In China, children must honor their parents, because children are raised by their parents; American children do not honor their parents very much, because children are raised by the country, and they must "honor" the country, that is, donate money. Let alone the rich and powerful, even the common people at the bottom, even the bankrupt family in "Shameless", are so poor that they can't even pay the rent or eat, and they have to deduct some of them proportionally every month, just like tax deductions. Donate money to charity fund.

This is the cultural background of American society.

It's like tipping at a restaurant.

On the surface, whether to tip is optional, you can give it or not. In fact, it is necessary to give. If you give less, it is not enough. If it is less than 10% of the total consumption, it may be considered as a suspicion of humiliating others, and you will be scolded or even beaten. This is not the law, but the culture of consensus.

Social wealth is a reservoir. Relying solely on taxation to adjust the distribution of wealth in the reservoir is too monotonous a mechanism, and it must be inseparable from the donation culture in society.

The domestic donation culture is still relatively weak and needs to be cultivated slowly.

Zhou Buqi has such an awareness.

He personally holds 200 million shares in Ziweixing, and promised to donate, not a one-time donation. After listing, cash out 3 million shares and donate 5 million shares in land every year. There is a steady flow of water. Every year, you can be listed on the annual charity list and become the chief philanthropist in China.

It can also be regarded as an example for domestic entrepreneurs.

Don't make money and go abroad.

If you earn money abroad and don’t bring it back to China, you can’t force it, and you can’t be kidnapped morally; if you earn money in China, you can bring it abroad... Zhou Buqi is determined not to do this kind of thing, he doesn’t need to be asked by others, he will give it to himself Morality kidnapped.

After hearing the three things Boss Zhou did, He Yang has a clue in his mind.

After these three tricks, Ziweixing's split will be irresistible.

...

After the meeting, Zhang Yiming followed He Yang calmly, and asked casually, "What's going on with Lao Zhou? Are you really going to donate everything?"

He Yang said: "Well, you can't fake it, and it won't be long before he announces his decision."

"It's really courageous."

"It should be related to the Hurun list and the Forbes list."

"Um?"

"In both lists, he is at the top of the list this year."

He Yang looked helpless.

Zhang Yiming paused, looked slightly raised, and lowered his voice, "You mean...he's scared?"

He Yang was more calm, and said with a smile: "Maybe, all those who have been at the top of the list have no accidents. But he is fine, shrewd, and every step is very steady."

Say one more thing. In reality, in August 2009, the sovereign funds of my country and Kuwait reached a cooperation agreement, promising to allow them to participate in stock investment in large A-shares.
