Chapter 618: Content goes to sea

Following Ahri, Ruixiang also completed its investment in China International Capital Corporation Limited.

This company, which is often referred to as "CICC", is called a brokerage in China and an investment bank abroad.

CICC is also a shareholder of Ruixiang, and after the completion of the equity transaction, it will become a mutual shareholding.

This time, Ruixiang spent HK$3.2 billion to buy a total of 200 million shares of CICC from foreign capital and the open market, accounting for 11.57% of its Hong Kong shares and 4.77% of its total issued shares.

Upon completion of the transaction, Ruixiang will become the fourth largest shareholder of CICC.

The largest shareholder of CICC is Central Huijin Investment Co., Ltd., holding 55.68% of the shares.

The second and third largest shareholders are Penguin and Ahri, with 4.95% and 4.84% of the shares, respectively.

Compared with the two of them, Ruixiang only holds a few million shares less.

Founded in 1995, CICC is the first Sino-foreign joint venture investment bank in Chinese mainland and was listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on November 9, 2015.

Investment banking business is CICC's "pillar" business, especially the overseas IPO underwriting business of large Chinese enterprises, including China Telecom, PetroChina, Sinopec, Chinese People's Insurance, Chinese Life and so on.

Because of the backing of big trees, Chinese companies have always asked CICC to act as an underwriter when they go public, and their revenue and net profit have been rising steadily.

Ruixiang's investment in CICC is not only based on the company's financial stability, which is suitable for long-term investment.

It's more about the Lala government relationship, and in this respect, it's no different from Ahri and penguins.

Originally, Zhang Yida wanted to buy more shares, at least more than 5%, but was dissuaded by CICC.

At present, CICC's shareholder ranking is also particular, and Ruixiang's strength is poor, and it can only be ranked behind Penguin and Ahri.

Zhang Yida didn't fight for those millions of shares, and the fourth largest shareholder is the fourth largest shareholder, which is better than not even having the qualifications to buy shares.

The background of this company is too good, and Zhang Yida does not dare to be a barbarian at the door, so he is angry with the controlling party Central Huijin in advance.

After the completion of the shareholding, Ruixiang was relatively low-key and did not disclose this news much.

However, the media noticed the relevant news and launched a big report.

Because ATR has a stake in a company at the same time, it is too rare in the industry, or it should be the first case.

As for the thousands, the financial sector is also a small enough financial support.

Soon after Goudong Finance changed its name to Goudong Digital, more energy was focused on scientific and technological exploration.

India's Singh also called Zhang Yida, and the share reform has been officially completed.

BBPAY received $1.75 billion in Series A financing led by a consortium led by a large U.S. investment bank, with a post-investment valuation of $8.75 billion.

Ruixiang and Yanhuang Investment did not follow the investment, one equity fell to 32%, and the other fell to 14.73%.

BBPAY has become an Indian-controlled, multi-domestic, foreign-owned fintech company.

In addition to being received by Indian government leaders as the "founder of India's second-largest fintech unicorn", Singh also embarked on a lecture tour at various Indian universities to talk about entrepreneurship.

It's not that no one questioned BBPAY's Chinese-funded component, but Singh was also very witty and directly pulled the Paytm founder into the water.

He is 4 points more than Vijay Shehar Shama than his shares, and India can't be more Indian.

The more radical third brother can't help it, and the two largest mobile e-wallets in China are unclear with Chinese capital.

They can resist Chinese investment, but life will become very inconvenient.

The Indian government knows only a few points about the shareholding of the founders of Chinese Ahri and Penguin.

So I didn't make it difficult for BBPAY anymore, but put all kinds of treatment on par with Paytm.

......

"Mr. Zhang, the five founders of Giant Bird Duoduo went to meet the people of V Society and returned to China, and it is said that V Society also threw an olive branch to them.

Also, the Penguin people are also in close contact with them and want to buy the company. ”

Zhang Lan's face is not very good-looking, and now the competition with penguins is simply everywhere, and it is becoming more and more needle-pointed.

Zhang Yida thought for a while and said: "In this way, raise the acquisition offer to 300 million yuan, and if they still refuse, let them go, and don't wait." ”

"Okay, then I'll go to Rongcheng again. ”

......

When Zhang Lan came to Rongcheng again, the five founders of Giant Bird Duoduo were even more arrogant than last time, and offered a sky-high purchase price of 1 billion.

Zhang Lan didn't know where these young men came from to be so angry, and she wasn't afraid to flash her tongue.

In the end, of course, there was no negotiation, the price disparity was too great, and no one was willing to give in.

The giant bird Duoduo not only rejected Ruixiang, but also rejected V Society and penguins.

And speak up on social media: never license a game to a penguin.

Zhang Lan is also completely dead, it is obvious that this is a group of young people with dreams.

Of course, it may also be that there are fewer beatings in society. will be so confused with confidence.

Reject the three big factories, not to mention anything else, no one can beat the courage.

There are also people on the Internet who shout for Giant Bird, feeling that this company has a lot of backbone and has "the capital of a big factory".

Due to the lack of big IP of MOBA games, the acquisition of giant birds has not been successful, and Ruixiang can only give up auto-chess, a newly popular game track.

If you really want to forcibly go to the game project, there is a high probability that it will also hit the street.

After figuring it out, Zhang Yida sighed, "Forget it, it's normal for an acquisition to fail, don't worry too much." ”

Zhang Lan pursed her mouth, "I really can't figure it out, that's 300 million, a few of them in their twenties actually refused." ”

Zhang Yida said with a smile: "What's the matter, I didn't refuse Ahri's 10 billion acquisition back then.

If they do it in the future, we will become jokes, short-sighted people in other people's mouths.

On the contrary, if they hit the street, we are sharp-eyed and successfully dodge a loss.

However, whether it is success or failure, it is very limited, and it is not worth taking too seriously. ”

Zhang Lan shook his head and smiled: "I think it is a little difficult for them to succeed, they are born with shortcomings, and they are lucky to toss a popular game, and I don't know how long it will be popular."

Before it succeeded, people were a little flustered. ”

Zhang Yida nodded and did not continue to take the topic.

"By the way, then you and me, Chen Rui, and Ma Jun will go to Southeast Asia together. ”

Zhang Lan asked, "What are you doing in Southeast Asia?"

"I plan to let Rocket Video and Station B go to sea and go to Southeast Asia to build a video website. ”

Zhang Lan felt that Mr. Zhang's ambition was too big, and he was simply aiming for the first Internet throne in China.

However, Southeast Asia is different from the domestic market, what dramas do you like to watch, the target audience, and how to land, all of which require a comprehensive investigation and a detailed business plan.

"Can it be done? I think the steps are a bit big, and the domestic market is not yet stable. ”

Zhang Yida explained, "Southeast Asia is deeply influenced by Chinese culture, and there are still some markets for Chinese TV dramas and movies.

Besides, it doesn't have to be exported to Chinese dramas, we can also cooperate with local production companies.

Take Thai dramas as an example, there are still some people who like them in China, in addition to broadcasting them in Thailand, they can also purchase reverse imports into China.

In addition, it is quite popular among young people in Southeast Asia, and it can also help video websites to divert traffic.

Coupled with games, the Internet, and comics, the entire content ecology can be replicated in Southeast Asia.

Also, don't forget Grab, which is the largest internet company in Southeast Asia.

We can operate a joint venture with them and let them help us do user diversion. ”

Zhang Lan thought about it carefully, it seems that it is really possible, at least there will be no shortage of traffic, the only thing missing is content.
