Chapter 640: Azure Automobile
The day after the onion came, Li Bing, accompanied by Shen Beipeng and Zhang Sanshi, also came to Zhang Yida.
Blackshirt Capital and Gaoling Capital are both early investors in the A and B rounds of Blue Automobile.
In addition, Penguin, Goudong, Shunwei Capital, Qiandu, Industrial Securities, Lenovo, CICC, Temasek, etc. are also shareholders of Blue Auto.
The luxurious shareholder team covers almost all of the top domestic venture capitalists and major Internet giants, which is not far behind the Ruixiang shareholder camp.
The reason why it can attract so many top capitals is inseparable from Li Bing's past personal glorious achievements.
Yiju.com and Yixin Group are both listed companies with a market value of more than one billion US dollars, plus Azure Automobile, there are a total of 3 listed companies under Li Bing's hands.
This number is not small, and Zhang Yida currently only controls 3 listed companies.
Also, in this life, the Baimo bicycle that sold itself to Huimin Travel is far less famous than in the previous life, but it can be regarded as a relatively successful entrepreneurial project.
Therefore, Li Bing is fully qualified to wear the title of "serial successful entrepreneur".
Under the superposition of various reasons, Azure Auto is a fashionable new car concept that benchmarks Tesla, and it is naturally praised by venture capital.
Blue Auto was listed in September last year, and its market value once soared to more than $14 billion!
But today, it is only more than $3 billion, down more than 70 from the stock price high.
Zhang Yida beckoned the three of them to sit down on the sofa in the living room of the office, and asked Li Bing with a smile: "Senior Brother Li, which gust of wind blew you here? I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Li Bing patted the soft leather sofa under his buttocks, looked at the furnishings in the living room, and said with a smile: "You big entrepreneurs still live a comfortable life." ”
Zhang Yida smiled, didn't answer, and turned his head to look at Shen Beipeng and Zhang Sanshi.
"That's right, Azure Auto is ready to issue a convertible bond. ”
Shen Beipeng smiled and said: "Didn't you just invest a lot in Tesla? 15 billion yuan!"
With such a big investment, don't you hedge your risk?"
Zhang Sanshi also nodded and said with a smile: "Azure is still very good, and the delivery volume is increasing significantly every quarter.
More than 11,000 units were sold last year, and this year it is expected to triple the number of deliveries. ”
Zhang Sanshi glanced at Li Bing, "Lao Li, are you right?"
Li Bing nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, we are still confident in the annual delivery of 30,000 vehicles this year." ”
After speaking, all three of them focused on Zhang Yida and waited for the latter's reply.
Zhang Yida is optimistic about the track of new energy vehicles, and has a relatively in-depth study of this industry.
In addition to the immature technology and the lack of popularity of charging piles, the biggest problem is the sales problem.
Only when sales come up can the huge R&D costs and manufacturing costs be diluted.
"I heard that Tesla's Modu factory is about to be completed and put into production, and a domestically produced Tesla will be launched. ”
Zhang Yida didn't say a few words, according to the cases of other manufacturers building factories in China, once the domestic version is released, the cost will drop and the selling price will almost be inevitable.
At that time, the domestic new car forces, especially the blue with a price of 300,000 ~ 400,000, will suffer a very big impact.
Li Bing's face was not very good-looking, the Modu factory was originally in the bag of Azure Automobile, but it was inserted by Tesla, which led to the failure of the factory construction plan of Azure Automobile.
This is related to the new "Automobile Industry Investment Management Regulations" issued by the state at the end of last year.
According to the "Regulations", since the Tesla Gigafactory settled in the magic capital Lingang before the blue, the slow blue needs to start the construction of the Modu factory after the Tesla Gigafactory has a production capacity of 500,000 vehicles.
This is also related to various undesirable phenomena such as fraud and waste of new energy subsidies.
Anyway, this matter has always been a scar in Li Bing's heart, the kind that hurts when he opens it.
Waiting for Tesla's annual output of 500,000 units, I am afraid that the corpses of Azure cars will be cold.
"In addition to the magic capital, the governments of Yizhuang and Hui Province in Beijing have thrown olive branches to the blue. ”
Li Bing put away his smile and said seriously. He knows that Zhang Yida is not a person who is easy to fool.
Because of the capital's siding, it is not particularly convenient for him to take Ahri's money.
And he has almost all the money of the top domestic venture capitalists, so Ruixiang has become a special target that needs to be wooed.
Penguin is currently the second largest shareholder of Azure City, and counting Goudong, the total shareholding ratio is still above him.
He holds a stake in Teal 144 with 47 voting rights, which does not mean that control is necessarily secure.
The introduction of Rui has always adjusted the shareholder camp, which will make him feel safer, and at the same time, it can also check and balance the penguin line.
Again, getting a new fund from Zhang Yida is also a great help to the money-hungry Weilan.
Kill two birds with one stone!
He looked for Zhang Yida many times, but each time he was politely declined.
He once thought that it was because of Jia Yueting that Zhang Yida looked down on the field of car manufacturing.
But this time, Zhang Yida invested heavily in Tesla, which gave him hope.
Although he is nominally a senior brother, Zhang Yida is not the same as his coffee in the industry.
In order to make the trip smoother, he found Shen Beipeng and Zhang Sanshi, and prepared to ask the two to help as lobbyists.
Li Bing hurriedly gave Shen Beipeng and Zhang Sanshi another look, and the two understood, and began to talk about how the local government was optimistic about Azure Automobile.
Azure Auto is currently in a difficult situation, and Tesla is constantly putting pressure on the outside world, and it has come to China's doorstep.
Internal cash burning is also very strong, and the current market value of Azure Auto has not accumulated as much financing.
In this uncertain situation, Zhang Sanshi and Shen Beipeng, these capital tycoons are a little hesitant, should they stop the loss immediately or make additional investment?
The safest way is to use other people's money to save the Teal car.
In this way, you don't have to take risks, and it also solves the problem of the shortage of funds for Azure Auto.
Zhang Yida's hedge fund's short-selling operations have basically stopped, and it has also made two or three billion dollars from Azure Auto.
This money is used to invest in the blue, which can be said to be taken from the people and used by the people, even if it is a total loss, it doesn't matter much.
"I invest in Teal, and Poniema doesn't object?"
Zhang Yida looked at the three of them playfully, he didn't think Boniema would be so generous.
"You don't have to worry about this!"
Li Bing looked at Zhang Yida with a serious face, "As long as you nod and agree, I'll explain to the penguins." ”
Shen Beipeng saw that there was a door to this matter, and he also came out to help: "Ony will not be so stingy, and the real helmsman and soul of Azure now is your senior brother Li Bing." ”
Zhang Sanshi also nodded, "Yes, Azure is not a subsidiary of Penguin, and we and other shareholders also have the right to express their views on this matter." ”
Li Bing looked at Zhang Yida, your doubts have been dispelled, it's time to give a happy word!
Zhang Yida smiled silently, Weilan's stock price is still in the early 3 US dollars, and the timing of the shot is still a little hot!
