The pace of time came to April, and Baidu, which was far away in Yanjing, had begun to prepare for listing. Judging from the clues revealed by Baidu's senior management, Liu Yun can roughly judge that Baidu's listing time is roughly in August this year, which is basically the same as the trajectory of the previous life.

Liu Yun still has 50,000 Baidu shares in his hands, which makes Baidu's listing work more important than others.

He still vividly remembers that Baidu's stock rose more than 350% on the first day of listing on the Nasdaq, closing at $122 on the day, making it the highest gain on the first day of listing on Wall Street since 2000.

This also means that Liu Yun's Baidu stock is now worth as much as $6.1 million. Even with his current net worth, this is not a small amount.

"Otherwise, I will deduct some more shares from Lao Li, and then boost Baidu's stock price. Liu Yun sat in his chair, squinting slightly.

He pondered for a moment and dialed the number of the old Li.

Youyou Network and Baidu jointly hold half of the shares of HAO123, and the two companies can be regarded as a cooperative unit with a close relationship.

Baidu, which monopolizes the Huaxia search engine market, is now a well-deserved giant enterprise.

After going public in August, Baidu's market capitalization will be close to $4 billion. In 2005, such a figure was out of reach for most Internet companies.

"Mr. Liu, why did you think of calling me today. Robin Li on the other end of the phone felt a little surprised and replied with a smile.

In terms of qualifications, this guy has a master's degree from the State University of New York in Buffalo, USA, and worked as a senior consultant at Dow Jones & Co.

The founders of several other Internet companies in China seem to be incomparable to him.

"Baidu is a partner of our Yoyo network, and only by keeping in touch can we connect with each other. Liu Yun said with a smile.

"Mr. Liu is really humorous. Li Yanhong said this, but in his heart, he believed that the young man in front of him who was in the limelight was definitely going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

In the past six months, Yoyo Internet has seen a lot of scenery. After they won the agency of "World of Warcraft", they carried out overwhelming publicity. Now that the closed beta has just ended, the limited public beta has officially started. Players are enthusiastic and rave reviews, and he can predict the popularity of this game in the future.

In addition, Yoyo Holiday Network is also in the limelight. In addition to the traditional online banking payment, this new travel website has also introduced the Alipay interface, which is convenient for many netizens to operate from the perspective of ease of operation. They also relied on this weapon to conquer the city in the tourism market and seize most of the market share.

For Robin Li, what he is most concerned about is the sideways appearance of Yoyo browser. It is said that the installed base of this new browser in Huaxia still exceeds 20 million, which is an extremely staggering number.

What really struck him was that the browser's default page was hao123, and Baidu owned half of it.

In Robin Li's view, today's Yoyo Network already has the capital and strength that they can face upon

"I know that your company is preparing to be listed on the NASDAQ, and I called to not only say hello to Mr. Li, but also wish Baidu's stock price a long success. After all, I also own 50,000 Baidu shares. Liu Yun said a little jokingly.

"Then thanks to Mr. Liu's good words. Robin Li replied with a smile.

It's no secret that Baidu is preparing to go public on the Nasdaq, and has even set the time for August this year, especially among the top executives of the Internet industry.

Liu Yun was silent for a moment, and said in a tentative tone: "Mr. Li, between the friendly cooperative relationship between our two companies, I am thinking about whether to boost Baidu's stock price, are you interested?"

Robin Li showed a hint of surprise and asked, "What does Mr. Liu mean?"

Liu Yun replied directly: "Our Yoyo browser is seizing the market share of IE, is Mr. Li interested in a piece of the pie?"

Robin Li's heart moved, thinking of this guy's recent acquisition of Ali's shareholding in Yoyo Holiday.com, does he want to repeat his old tricks?

In today's browser market, the installed base of Yoyo browser has exceeded the 20 million mark and is steadily moving towards 25 million. If Baidu takes a stake in Yoyo Browser, it will be extremely good news for their stock price.

Liu Yun continued to talk slowly: "Mr. Li also understands that now Yoyo Browser has no rival in this browser market. For Microsoft, Internet Explorer is a dispensable business, and it is difficult to get their attention. Especially in the Chinese market, we can do whatever we want. ”

Robin Li said: "I'm very tempted by this proposal, but what kind of conditions can Mr. Liu offer?"

Liu Yun replied: "Mr. Li, Baidu already has half of the equity of hao123, and I am still willing to take out 50% of the shares in Yoyo Browser, and in the future, the navigation web page and the browser will sooner or later merge into one, and the operation right still belongs to me." ”

Robin Li is also a smart person, and he does not have a trace of contempt for Liu Yun, but attaches great importance to it. Although the founder of Yoyo Network is very young, he is extremely scheming, and he has a strong jumping mind in his mind.

Now this guy actually gave very generous conditions, which also made him very excited. Today, when the acquisition of Hao123's shares, Youyo Network was far from its current status, so it was agreed that the two companies would each hold half of the shares.

But now, this company has rapidly moved towards a first-line Internet company, and Yoyo Browser is still willing to sell half of its equity with such a huge installed base, what is his idea?

Robin Li was silent for a moment and replied, "Mr. Liu, what do you want from our Baidu?"

Liu Yun said with a smile: "Mr. Li is really a smart person, first of all, he didn't ask the price of half of the equity of Yoyo Browser, but asked me what I wanted? ”

Robin Li took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Liu, please speak!"

Liu Yun smiled slightly and said: "I ask users to enter travel, reservation, vacation and other related travel words in Baidu, and the first two pages of Baidu search cannot appear Ctrip links!"

"When Baidu types Ctrip into a search, the location of our Yoyo Vacation website should be located above Ctrip.com. ”

He finally said his purpose, and he also showed his minions.

Liu Yun doesn't need to raise money to dilute his shares, let alone burn money, what he is good at is to use all the advantages he can use to carry out a comprehensive blow to his competitors.
