In this regard, Chen Ping is not too anxious.

Although Guangyu Technology Co., Ltd. wants to develop its own chat software, this is not something that can be promoted overnight, and Chen Ping did not rush too much.

On the contrary, it is Baidu's side, which needs to be implemented as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once Baidu passes the decision to go public, it will be even more difficult for these shareholders to buy the shares.

After contacting several senior executives of Baidu, Zhao Zheng could only contact Chen Ping helplessly.

Regarding the situation of these high-level executives of Baidu, Zhao Zheng also collected a lot of information, all of which was handed over to Chen Ping.

However, in Zhao Zheng's view, it is not so easy to acquire the original shares in the hands of these shareholders, and it is bound to pay a greater price.

Chen Ping was also a little distressed about this matter.

The acquisition of Baidu's original shares is not as simple as imagined.

Since these senior executives of Baidu can own the original shares, it means that they are also one of the top managers of Baidu.

After all, such a person has a certain ability, at least the vision will not be bad.

Naturally, they can also see that Baidu's development prospects are extremely good, so their shares will not be sold easily.

If you want to buy these stocks, you must find the right breakthrough.

After Chen Ping got the information sent by Zhao Zheng, he studied it like crazy for several days, and finally had a certain eyebrow.

However, if you want to contact the target candidate in Chen Ping's mind, you also need Zhao Zheng as an intermediary.

It's just a matter of seeing each other, which is not too difficult for Zhao Zheng.

As the vice president of a headhunting company, although his identity and status are far inferior to those of the top executives of Baidu companies, he has an extremely wide range of contacts, and it is easy to just contact.

However, Chen Ping also paid a lot of price for this, just for the collection of information and contact with the other party, Chen Ping paid Zhao Zheng a reward of 2 million.

At the end of December, when it was approaching New Year's Day, it was also the time agreed between Chen Ping and the other party.

For this meeting, Chen Ping was also extremely well prepared, and spent the previous few days studying the other party's information almost sleeplessly, striving to improve the success rate a little bit.

The meeting took place at the other party's home, but although the Baidu senior management no longer manages Baidu's internal affairs and has returned to his hometown to live, he is not in Dongjiang Province, but in another province next door.

Chen Ping hurried to the city where the other party lived, but fortunately, with Zhao Zheng's guidance, Chen Ping was able to find the other party's address.

After coming to the other party's house, Chen Ping also sighed secretly in his heart.

These successful people are really the same in this regard, although the senior management of Baidu, although he is close to the age of retirement, but the assets are really a lot, just this luxury villa, rough estimates need at least millions.

Chen Ping and Zhao Zheng stood outside each other's villas, and after ringing the doorbell, it took a few minutes for the villa's nanny to hurriedly walk out.

Zhao Zheng handed over his business card with a smile on his face, and said with a soft smile: "We came to find Mr. Song, this is my business card, and I have contacted Mr. Song before." ”

The nanny took Zhao Zheng's business card and looked at it carefully, then nodded lightly, and said calmly: "Mr. Zhao is already waiting for you, please come with me." ”

Zhao Zheng glanced at Chen Ping beside him, but Chen Ping didn't say a word, and walked directly to the villa with Zhao Zheng.

The decoration in the villa is indeed extremely luxurious, Chen Ping looked around, but he could also see that this Mr. Song does not seem to be a person who can care for the elderly at ease, and he still has a little ambition in his heart, even if he is old, he is not willing to stay at home all the time.

After confirming his thoughts, Chen Ping also smiled slightly, and sure enough, it was the same as Chen Ping's previous research results.

This Mr. Song is not a simple person, although he has now been collectively excluded from Baidu's decision-making level by Baidu's top management, but he is not a figure who keeps to himself.

In this way, the success rate of this negotiation has increased by a few points.

After walking into the study, Chen Ping's eyes were also slightly condensed.

Chen Ping has no impression of this Mr. Song, and he has not paid attention to this Mr. Song in his previous life, even if the other party is also a senior executive of Baidu, but Chen Ping has never seen this Mr. Song.

In Chen Ping's impression, there does not seem to be this Mr. Song in the list of shareholders announced by Baidu after its listing, which is one of the reasons why Chen Ping dared to come here to talk to the other party about acquiring shares.

Seeing Zhao Zheng and Chen Ping coming in, Mr. Song also raised his head slightly, then stood up with a smile, looked at Zhao Zheng and said softly: "Mr. Zhao hasn't seen you for a long time, I recently heard that you have been promoted again?"

In the face of this veteran figure of Baidu, Zhao Zheng did not dare to hold it up, and hurriedly stepped forward to shake Mr. Song's hand, and said with a modest smile: "Mr. Song's words are serious, where is the promotion, it is just a small step forward, if nothing else, I am afraid that my life will end here, this is still thanks to the blessing of Chen Ping and Mr. Chen, otherwise, I will still be nesting in that small place in Anhe City!"

Mr. Song nodded, and then looked at Chen Ping on the side with some surprise, and asked softly in confusion: "Could this be Mr. Chen in Mr. Zhao's mouth?"

Zhao Zheng nodded with a smile, and then said with a smile: "That's right, don't look at Mr. Chen's youth, he is one of the new billionaires in China, and he can definitely be regarded as young and promising!"

Mr. Song smiled and nodded, but there was a bit of disapproval in his eyes.

But Chen Ping didn't care too much about this, most of the people who saw him for the first time would show such expressions, even Zhao Zheng at the beginning?

After chatting a few words, Mr. Song invited the two to sit down, and then asked with a pretended puzzled smile: "I don't know what Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chen are looking for me this time?"

Zhao Zheng also laughed dryly, in fact, before this, he had already explained his purpose to this Mr. Song, if it weren't for this, I'm afraid this Mr. Song wouldn't be in the mood to see him.

However, now Mr. Song is pretending to be stupid, as if he doesn't know the purpose of the two of them at all, although Zhao Zheng sneered in his heart, but on the surface, he didn't dare to show anything, so he could only say with a smile on his face: "Mr. Song, this time I was entrusted by Mr. Chen, and I want to talk to Mr. Song about the Baidu shares in your hand." ”

Mr. Song's brows immediately furrowed, and he glanced at Chen Ping on the side suspiciously, then shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Chen may not know, at present, I am just an old man in Baidu, and there is no way to meddle in Baidu's decision-making level. ”

I have to say that Mr. Song is also telling the truth, the stocks in his hands are actually not too much, the current market value of Baidu has reached nearly 10 billion, although the value of Mr. Song's stocks is as high as hundreds of millions, but it is only a little more than 1%.

Such an equity ratio is simply impossible for him to enter the decision-making level of Baidu.

After all, the number of shareholders of Baidu is still quite large, and those who can participate in the company's decision-making level basically hold more than 5% of the shares.

With just over 1%, there is no way to participate in the company's decision-making affairs.

However, Mr. Song's words are not just a statement of facts, but also a lot of difficulty in this equity acquisition.

Obviously, when the other party says such a thing, he is already refusing.

For a while, Zhao Zheng was also a little helpless.

In fact, he had already been in contact with this Mr. Song once before, but what the other party said had always been a little ambiguous.

Although there was no explicit refusal, there was no intention of selling the shares immediately.

On the contrary, Chen Ping's face was calm, he looked at Mr. Song in front of him lightly, and said with a soft smile: "Mr. Song is serious, after all, you are one of the founders of Baidu, even if you don't have many stocks in your hand now, you can be regarded as the veteran of Baidu." No one has the qualifications to question Mr. Song's ability, and even those executives of Baidu now have no way to deny Mr. Song's ability and experience. ”

Mr. Song smiled slightly, and seemed to be very useful to Chen Ping's words, but Chen Ping and Zhao Zheng could both see it, but Mr. Song didn't think so.

He just smiled calmly and asked, "I don't know why Mr. Chen wants to buy the shares of Baidu in my hand this time?

Chen Ping's eyes were slightly condensed, and then there was a stunned look on his face, and he asked softly in confusion: "What kind of wind?"

Mr. Song smiled, and after glancing at Chen Ping, he seemed to ask casually: "Isn't Mr. Chen clear? Now the purpose of acquiring Baidu's original shares is nothing more than to make a lot of money after Baidu is listed.

Chen Ping suddenly smiled bitterly, then shook his head slightly, and said with a helpless smile: "Mr. Song said that you are joking, you are one of the shareholders of Baidu, and even you have not received such a rumor, how can I get the news?"

Hearing Chen Ping's words, Mr. Song was also stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing.

Chen Ping is indeed telling the truth, although Mr. Song is no longer one of Baidu's decision-makers, he is also a shareholder of Baidu after all, even if he does not have any power in his hands, he can still have some sources of news within Baidu.

At least more than outsiders know.

Chen Ping is a real outsider, and even Mr. Song doesn't know the news, and Chen Ping is even more unlikely to know.

So Mr. Song didn't have much doubt about this, but it was precisely for this reason that Mr. Song was even more puzzled by Chen Ping's purpose, and asked softly in confusion: "Since Baidu has no plans to go public soon, why do you want to buy the original shares in my hand?"
