On March 9th, less than two weeks after Zhuo Ziyuan invited Tong Xue to dinner, Zhuo Ziyuan got good news from Youdao Capital, which was about penguin equity, Zhuo Ziyuan did not expect that in less than a month, Xu Ziqiang brought explosive good news, someone actually wanted to sell the penguin equity in his hand, and the proportion was as high as 20%.

When he first heard the news, Zhuo Ziyuan was simply ecstatic, he really couldn't imagine that someone was stupid enough to think about selling it when he held this high percentage of equity, which had to be a decision that could only be made by a lot of cheats. But when I think about it, no one knows the development prospects of penguins as well as him, and when people look at the crisis, what naturally comes to mind is stop loss.

Zhuo Ziyuan did not pay attention to the development process of Penguin in his previous life, how many times it has been financed, how many times the equity has changed, who is the major shareholder or which capital company, these Zhuo Ziyuan has no concept at all, his original plan is just to let Xu Ziqiang not miss any financing opportunity for penguins, no matter how much the cost, how much proportion, to win.

However, what I didn't expect at all was that pie fell from the sky, a full 20% of the equity, you must know that the penguins in the future are supergiants worth hundreds of billions of dollars in market value, then these 20% are equivalent to 20 billion dollars, just these equity, can make anyone directly enter the global rich list, let alone the Chinese rich list, but as for the ranking, except for the first, nothing else matters, isn't it.

After calming down a little, Zhuo Ziyuan learned the specific details from Xu Ziqiang's mouth, it turned out that Penguin had a financing in 99 years, the amount was not large, but the proportion of equity transfer was very large, the two companies only won 40% of Penguin's equity at a price of 2.2 million US dollars, which is unimaginable in Zhuo Ziyuan's view, if they hold it for more than 15 years, it will be a proper 10,000-fold income, and at that time, Warren Buffett, the god of stocks, is nothing compared to this investment.

One of the largest companies, Yingdong Capital, is said to be an investment company established by the son of the richest man, they hold 20% of the equity of Penguin, Yingdong Capital's investment direction is mainly in real estate, Penguin is the first and only Internet company they invested. Unexpectedly, there was a large-scale Internet crisis last year, which made the son of the richest man feel the pressure, and an investment institution like them cannot be a sole proprietorship, on the one hand, it is necessary to find a lot of people to raise funds, on the other hand, it is also to find more people to take risks, and at the same time, in the event of a crisis, each shareholder can also find a way in their respective networks.

At the end of last year, they took the initiative to find Yahu.com, wanting to sell their 20% Penguin shares at a price of 8.5 million US dollars, but they did not expect to be ruthlessly refused.

Yahu is currently the largest Internet company, even at the outbreak of the Internet crisis, it is also a super large company with a market value of more than 100 billion US dollars, and Apple and Microsoft together are not as valuable as a Yahu.

As the leader of the industry, Yahu is very arrogant, they are so arrogant that they can't look down on Penguin, a company that has not been revealed at all, Penguin is now just a simple chat tool, Yahu has its own merger and acquisition plan, and the target of mergers and acquisitions is in 100 million units, and there is no interest in the penguin shares that Yingdong took the initiative to throw.

After being rejected by Yahu, Yingdong did not give up selling Penguin's shares, but actively looked for major well-known investment companies, eager to cash out the shares in their hands, but was rejected by major investment companies.

Yingdong's approach has caused a stir in the investment community, and everyone knows that Penguin's equity has reached the point where no one cares. This situation has also led to another capital IDG that owns Penguin's equity in disguise, and has also been shaken, thinking about whether to sell a part of the equity appropriately to ensure returns, in case this adverse effect continues, and the penguin goes out of business, then there will be no return, of course, Xu Ziqiang does not know this.

This is a good opportunity, Zhuo Ziyuan definitely does not want to miss it, in the current situation, Zhuo Ziyuan does not have to sacrifice equity rights to obtain Penguin's shares. Zhuo Ziyuan did not let Xu Ziqiang contact Yingdong Capital immediately, but asked him to contact the senior management of Penguin directly, he believed that the senior management of Penguin is very happy to see someone willing to take over this part of the equity, with such a friendship in the snow, I believe that the future will be more harmonious.

Sure enough, when Xu Ziqiang contacted the senior management of Penguin and expressed Youdao Capital's intention to invest in Penguin, the call was directly transferred to Brother Xiaoma.

Brother Pony is very helpless now, the Internet crisis is not their fault, they have also suffered from the pond fish, but Yingdong's actions have made the Penguin's senior management very passive and annoyed.

In such a period now, the market is already turbulent, and the company's internal crisis theory is also spreading, and the failure of Yingdong to sell Penguin's equity is undoubtedly a kind of fuel to the fire.

Under such circumstances, the senior management of Penguin is also actively looking for capital, hoping to let new capital enter as soon as possible, so as to get rid of the current unfavorable public opinion environment, at least to inspire the hearts of the company's employees.

Under such a premise, Zhuo Ziyuan's opportunity came, according to the instructions of the table, Xu Ziqiang's communication with Xiao Ma was very smooth, Xu Ziqiang only put forward two requirements in total, one is to ask the penguin management to assist in putting pressure on Yingdong to reduce the price to 8 million US dollars, and the other is to sign a supplementary agreement with the penguin, Youdao Capital has priority in the subsequent financing process of the penguin.

For these two conditions, Brother Xiao Ma didn't have to think, he agreed without hesitation, the second requirement, as long as it is confidence in the company, the investment company will basically put forward such a requirement, the first requirement is no problem, Yingdong's approach has annoyed the Penguin management, let them pay a price, it is a matter of course. And even if it is transferred at a price of 8 million, it has swelled Yingdong's investment by 7 times in just one and a half years, which can be regarded as a very successful investment, and it is a good explanation for any party.

The speed of the tripartite negotiation is very fast, one is willing to sell, one is willing to buy, and the other is trying to promote it in the middle, if such a relationship cannot be negotiated, then it is estimated that there is no business in the world that can be negotiated.

Therefore, in just three days, the negotiation of all the terms was completed, and Lu Tao was also very happy, as soon as their Dongdu Law Firm was registered, they ushered in a large equity transfer contract, which can be regarded as a good start.

In order to boost the morale of the company, but also to alleviate the pressure of external public opinion, Xiao Ma Ge put forward the request to make the momentum of the equity transfer bigger, he hopes that the equity transfer can be made public, hold an equity transfer press conference, and invite some familiar reporters and friends to advocate in the media.

This is understandable, and it is more conducive to the development of the company, which is conducive to the development of the company, which is also conducive to Zhuo Ziyuan's income, and Zhuo Ziyuan certainly has no reason to object.

Zhuo Ziyuan is also ready to participate in the equity transfer signing ceremony, the purpose is to get to know Brother Xiaoma, mix up his face, as for the press conference, or let Xu Ziqiang come forward, he is not ready to go to the stage, he is only a high school student, too high-profile, easy to absorb hatred value.

In order to make up for Zhuozi's time, the time of the press conference was set at 10 a.m. on Saturday, March 17.

On Friday night, as soon as school ended, Zhuo Ziyuan took Li Xinyuan to catch a plane, they were going to fly directly from Longcheng Airport to Shenzhen, the plane was half past nine, and it was already eight o'clock when they arrived at the airport.

After checking in and entering the waiting hall, Li Xinyuan couldn't sit still, and walked around, this was Li Xinyuan's first time on a plane, and she was very curious about everything, after all, she was still a child.

"Brother, look, there's a plane landing over there, and there's a plane taking off over there. Li Xinyuan leaned on the railing and said excitedly.

Looking at Li Xinyuan's happy appearance, Zhuo Ziyuan habitually took out his mobile phone, ready to help her take a few photos, only to find out that now is not as good as in the future, taking pictures is one of the basic functions of mobile phones, and now mobile phones can't take pictures at all, and no one has a camera with him when he goes out.

Zhuo Ziyuan felt sorry for Li Xinyuan, the first time he took a plane, he didn't have the opportunity to leave an image.

"Yuan'er, okay, you've also run around, come and sit down. Zhuo Ziyuan looked at Li Xinyuan, who was still wandering around, and couldn't help but stop her.

"Oh. Li Xinyuan's excitement has not passed, sitting in the position, and watching everywhere.

"Brother, I really didn't expect that the plane would be so big, how can you say that such a big plane can fly into the sky. ”

"Let's fly with a bird. Zhuo Ziyuan is not very sure if there are more theories about the flight of airplanes.

"Oh, so you say, will the plane hit a bird while flying?"

"Well, there should be that probability... Who knows. Zhuo Ziyuan was speechless, we are about to get on the plane, you tell me if it will collide with a bird.

"What happens if you hit a bird? The plane should fly very fast, will it hit a hole in the plane?"

"Well, theoretically, it probably would, but birds tend to avoid planes, and they're not stupid birds. ”

"How dangerous it is to fly. After the excitement passed, Li Xinyuan began to worry again.

"Don't worry, according to relevant statistics, taking a plane is the safest mode of transportation, safer than cars and trains. Okay, we're about to take off, so don't talk about these things that are not collisions or not, and whether they are dangerous or not, OK?" Zhuo Ziyuan decided to interrupt the topic, and he was a little trembling by her.

"Okay. Li Xinyuan was honest and stopped talking.

After sitting for a while, both of them were bored, now unlike the future, almost everyone has a smartphone, and notebooks are also very popular, you can take them out to watch movies and play games, and now you can only wait at the airport, and moreover, domestic flights are notoriously unpunctual, and I don't know how long to wait.

Since his rebirth, he has rarely been idle for such a long time, he is a little uncomfortable, Zhuo Ziyuan is really bored, so he ordered two cups of coffee in the airport café, sat in it to rest, and took some magazines to pass the time.

I finally managed to get on the plane, it was already 10 o'clock, this should be a standard red-eye flight, Zhuo Ziyuan couldn't help but think.

They bought business class, Zhuo Ziyuan can wronged himself, but he doesn't want to wronged Li Xinyuan, and he has money, so he still has the right to enjoy it. The current business class is not as luxurious as the future generations, the economy class is three seats connected together, and the business class is only two, not only the left and right space is large, but the front and rear space is also much larger, and you can sleep down, that's all.

Li Xinyuan sat by the window, during the flight, she did not look at the scenery outside the window, because it was night, many times she saw it was dark, but it was much clearer to see the stars, and sometimes she could see the bright light of the city, but now the nightlife of the domestic public is not so rich.

Zhuo Ziyuan began to close his eyes as soon as he got on the plane, this is a habit he has always had in his previous life, domestic flights are not allowed to turn on electronic devices at all, unlike foreign countries, you can fly mode, and your laptop can also be opened to watch movies or something.

Li Xinyuan was excited for a while, and fell asleep unconsciously.
