In the luxury office building in the center of Jiangzhou, Tianlong Literature Network has entered a stormy stage at this moment.

A tense atmosphere hovered over the company, and everyone seemed to feel that there was a sudden situation on the Tianlong Literature Network, but they didn't know what the problem was.

All this is mainly due to Li Tianlong's overly optimistic expectations for the future, and there is a serious imbalance in financial revenue and expenditure.

He did not expect that after the first round of financing, Juxing Venture Capital would terminate further investment in the website, so that the originally opened stall suddenly had no funds, and many projects quickly went into hibernation.

In the president's office, Li Tianlong no longer has the calm and leisure he once had, the office is messy, there is no red wine on the desk, but all kinds of materials are piled up.

From time to time, high-ranking officials come to report the latest situation, and the most heard is where there is chaos.

This made Li Tianlong feel very helpless, in the face of an increasingly serious financial crisis, the current Tianlong Literature Network has become a major problem even to pay salaries, and the company's development has come to a standstill or even regression.

The most real problem at hand is that the luxury office buildings in the city center rented by the company may now have to vacate and move out to cheaper suburban locations.

This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the company's morale for Tianlong Literature Network.

Correspondingly, a serious personnel crisis broke out on the Tianlong Literature Network.

Almost every day, personnel submit resignation applications, and if the current state continues to develop, in less than a month, the entire Tianlong Literature Network will only have Li Tianlong as a bare-rod commander.

Now, stabilizing people's minds has become the top priority of the website. If you don't do a good job of reversing the current decline, your website will soon be in a state of no return.

Li Tianlong never expected that the change in the situation was far beyond his expectations, which has shown that the original judgment was too optimistic, Tianlong Literature Network in the industry boss position is actually not stable, once the loss of stable cash flow, the company's blind expansion will produce huge risks.

After communicating with Zhou Wenyang, Li Tianlong's mood was already mixed.

At present, the current development momentum of the origin Chinese network is very good, and the growth potential is huge, in fact, there is no need to talk about cooperation with Tianlong Literature Network.

Moreover, according to the current development trend, with more and more high-quality authors joining, the origin Chinese network has gradually formed a siphon effect in the market, making the high-quality resources in the online literature industry spontaneously move closer to it.

It is diametrically opposed to the Tianlong Literature Network, the website authors continue to lose, the number of high-quality online articles continues to decline, even if it is some excellent works originally, now a large number of books have been completed or interrupted, and the online library has shown a situation of lack of success.

Therefore, according to the current industry forecast, I am afraid that after two or three months, that is, by the second half of 2002, the origin Chinese network will be able to officially top the national boss and become the best online literature website in terms of market share, and the market share of Tianlong Literature Network will soon fall below 5%.

If that day comes, Tianlong Literature Network will be completely reduced to a junk asset, and I am afraid that even a fraction of the current valuation will be insufficient, so we must seek a way out as soon as possible.

For Li Tianlong, it is no longer a question of whether he can dominate the online literary world, but whether he can get out of the way.

In such an unfavorable situation, it is difficult to accomplish even if you want to get out of the situation.

In this regard, Li Tianlong is not without consideration, but at the National Network Literature Conference led by him, he has already set himself a "free" dead frame.

It's only been a few months now, and if you change this main tone and openly embark on the road of tolls, then your face is probably going to be swollen.

Taking a step back, even if you are cheeky enough to engage in a charging model, whether this model can succeed or not, it seems that it is still unknown, if you can't succeed in the end, your face will not only be swollen, but also have no benefits, reputation and money are empty, it is very not cost-effective.

Of course, Li Tianlong has also considered other options, such as seeking to sell.

However, the current Tianlong Literature Network is already in chaos, and the people who acquire it are not fools, and this kind of asset is actually not worth spending a lot of cash to acquire.

But if it is dealt with at a low price, emotionally, Li Tianlong feels that he can't get by, and he can't explain it to other shareholders.

The best solution is to merge with other literary networks, after all, Tianlong Literature Network has a market foundation, and this market foundation can be transferred to other literary websites through merger, which is probably the biggest asset of Tianlong Literature Network at the moment.

After thinking about it, Li Tianlong felt that he should go and find his old subordinate Zhou Wenyang.

And now, the similar website that has the ability to help Tianlong Literature Network is probably only the origin Chinese network.

And the information obtained from the origin Chinese network actually made Li Tianlong feel very helpless, after all, the origin Chinese network at the moment does not need any resources of the Tianlong Literature Network, if you really want to talk, then you can only talk about mergers and acquisitions, and it is a cheap merger and acquisition.

Li Tianlong knew that in the face of the current grim situation, he had no room for bargaining at all.

If the requirements of the origin Chinese network are not met, the other party can completely suspend the negotiation, so that the Tianlong Literature Network will continue to fall into despair of self-help.

And other websites may not be able to save Tianlong Literature Network, after all, they have offended a large number of people in the industry, and now these people are already very good if they don't fall into the ground.

After experiencing a fierce ideological struggle, Li Tianlong finally picked up his mobile phone and dialed Li Feng's phone: "Hey, is it President Li of the origin Chinese network, I am Li Tianlong of the Tianlong Literature Network." I am making this call today to discuss with you the merger and acquisition of Tianlong Literature Network. ”

At this moment, Li Feng had just heard Zhou Wenyang's specific negotiations on the acquisition of Tianlong Literature Network, and he already had a bottom in his heart, knowing that Li Tianlong called to finalize it: "This matter, Zhou Wenyang has already told me, it seems that Mr. Li is very interested in our origin Chinese network." However, at present, our website has not yet been able to enter large-scale profits, even if your Tianlong Literature Network is willing to merge and acquire, I am afraid it will not be able to obtain a very ideal return, I wonder if Mr. Li is mentally prepared?"

"At this point, Zhou Wenyang has communicated with me, the current Tianlong Literature Network is indeed in a disadvantageous situation, but we are not without value, Tianlong Literature Network can be integrated into the origin Chinese Network as a whole, but in terms of specific price, can Mr. Li provide a win-win solution?" Li Tianlong said.
