Chapter 257: The Winter of the Internet

"Brother, is there any basis for your judgment?"

Hu Yang knew that Chen Jialin would ask such a question, so he patiently explained, "You see, the Asian financial turmoil has been raging for more than a year, and the economy of Xiangjiang has actually been dragged down to a great extent. Followed by the bursting of the global Internet bubble, does it take time to revive the economy, so I judge that the bottoming out of the Xiangjiang property market was not in 2002, but in 2003. ”

Chen Jialin felt that the basis for Populus euphratica was not very sufficient, but it was not a word of truth to be able to say a meridian.

In the end, Chen Jialin still decided to believe Hu Yang's judgment and planned to watch it for another year or two.

"Brother Hu, what's going on with your assistant seems to be a little special to you. ”

Today's visit to the sea is purely a private party, and of course Hu Yang did not bring Lin Yan. However, Chen Jialin has seen Lin Yan more than once, and always feels that Hu Yang and others may have something.

"You guy, you're still such a bastard. ”

Hu Yang laughed, and didn't bother to explain to Chen Jialin that Chen Dashao belonged to the kind of person who was more indulgent in his private life, and he really couldn't compare with him.

"Hehe, Assistant Lin is good, and he is not your employee, so don't be afraid that people will say that your rabbit eats the grass by the nest." ”

Lin Yan is Hu Yang's personal assistant, but she is also named in the company, and Chen Jialin's set is simply crooked.

Besides, if Hu Yang really meant that, he wouldn't care about these things. Well, you can't indulge yourself too much, but you can't turn yourself into an ascetic

"You, you shouted so many cuties to come out to play today, and you have the energy to rush at them, don't keep grinding your teeth with me here. ”

"Look at it, look at it, you can't afford to joke anymore, or you're weak-hearted. Hehe, don't talk about it, don't talk about it, let's talk about something serious. I asked the financial estimate before, this year's revenue of Boulder Technology is about 5.4 billion yuan, and the net profit can be 1.6 billion yuan.

Since the establishment of Boite Technology, including the profit from the increase in share capital, we have achieved a total net profit of more than 5 billion. ”

Chen Jialin thought about dividends before, so he made a forecast in advance. This data is not very accurate, but it is not too biased either.

According to this value, the company's share capital is 2.6 billion yuan, and by the end of this year, the accumulated net profit alone is equivalent to earning two stubborn stones.

Hu Yang smiled and nodded, grabbed a pack of cigarettes on the table and threw it to Chen Jialin, he still had a pack in his hand, and then lit one each.

"Chen Shao, at this stage, revenue and net profit will grow rapidly, and I estimate that the compound growth rate of the company's various indicators will be above 30. You wait, the day when the revenue and net profit will both exceed 100 may come one day. ”

Hu Yang's "double over 100" refers to the fact that the revenue and net profit are more than 10 billion yuan. That may sound like a bit of a high goal, but he believes it may not take a few years to reach it.

"Yes, I've always had a lot of confidence in our Rock Technology. I said, we're not here for a board meeting today, let's talk about business here, let's eat and drink first, and then we'll all have fun."

Hu Yang's yacht is not too crowded at all to fit twenty people.

The cabin has not only a living room, dining room, kitchen, but also a bedroom. The 63-meter yacht already belongs to the category of medium and large yachts, and all facilities are complete.

Of course, Hu Yang also knows that if this yacht is compared with the superyachts in the previous life, the gap will be big. He remembers that there was a wealthy Russian yacht worth $1.2 billion, which not only had its own swimming pool, but also a tarmac and a helicopter.

Hu Yangzhi does not pursue these things, he buys this yacht, in addition to leisure, it will also be used as a social platform when appropriate.

"Let's go, go in and eat, Chen Shao, you can drink leisurely for a while, don't get yourself drunk, you will be happy when you are drunk. ”

Hu Yang said, and got up and went into the cabin. There will be a sumptuous seafood feast at noon today, including Boston lobster, caviar, Australian abalone, tuna and more.

Of course, there are also French red wines that make you very drunk.

The food, the wine, the scenery and the beauty all add to the atmosphere on the yacht.

At noon the next day, the yacht returned to the Xiangjiang Pier.

Hu Yang and Chen Jialin's short vacation should also be over.

Back in the depths, Populus unexpectedly receives a call from Pony.

"Mr. Hu, the company's application for listing has been submitted, and it is difficult to say whether it can succeed now, and whether it will succeed or not is roughly between five and five. Now there is one such thing, I have been approached by an investment institution, and they said that South African banks are interested in the development of our company and want to buy some shares from shareholders. ”

The news brought by Pony is not unexpected, in a previous life, the first round of investment in the deep sea took off was Li Kaize and IDGG. Later, it was also the South African Bank that stepped in, not only buying some of the shares of the Pony partners, but also most of the shares held by IDGG.

Hu Yang doesn't regret it later, Hu Yang doesn't know, but he knows that if he transfers the shares of the "Penguin Empire", he will definitely regret it in the future.

"Mr. Ma, I am very confident in you and Shenhai Tengfei, and I will not sell my equity if anyone comes. Well, one more thing, it doesn't sell for much money. ”

Hu Yang neatly rejected the acquisition of shares, and Xiaoma immediately changed the topic, chatted about some newly developed products of the company, and hung up.

Just kidding, the equity of the "Penguin Empire" 20, how can it be possible to sell now, don't even think about it. However, judging from the call from Xiaoma, Hu Yang realized that the funds for the deep sea take-off may be tight again.

"Mr. Xu, has there been any progress on the listing of Deep Sea Take-off on the Stock Exchange, if possible, try to speed up the process. ”

Hu Yang thought about it and still made a call to Xu Younian. He estimates that Xiaoma does not plan to increase capital and shares for the time being, so it is best to go public directly in one step.

Xu Younian was a little puzzled when he received the call, shouldn't he go all out to support the listing of "Xintong International" first, he knew that the boss had invested a huge amount of money in the company Xintong International, so seventy percent of his work during this period of time was focused on this.

However, the matter of Xintong International is more complicated, and judging from the current information that has come back, its road to listing is still full of twists and turns.

If you really want to compare, it may be relatively easy to turn around and fully support the listing of "Deep Sea Take-off" now.

"Okay, Mr. Hu, I know what to do next. ”

Xu Younian is not a novice in the workplace, he knows that the boss naturally has his reason for arranging this, so he immediately accepted it with a clear attitude.

Hu Yang put down the phone and nodded secretly. Xu Younian may be slightly inferior to Mu Shaoqing in terms of ability, but he is the most reassuring to use, and to some extent, keeping success and pioneering are equally important.

Soon, good news came from the deep sea, and the registered users of Penguin unstoppably broke through the 10 million mark.

This is certainly good news, but embarrassingly, the company's profitability has not improved substantially.

Therefore, although the "penguin" products that have taken off in the deep sea have begun to be widely concerned by the domestic public, they have not been able to cross the threshold of listing on the Stock Exchange.

This stage is a torment for the pony, and a kind of helplessness for the poplar.

Shenhai Tengfei lacks cash flow, Hu Yang is willing to increase investment, the problem is that Li Kaize does not agree, the original shareholders of Shenhai Tengfei also have doubts, and Hu Yang does not want to give an inexplicably high valuation now.

Behind the crazy growth in the number of registered users is the exponential increase in server hosting costs, and in Pony's words, he is now in a hurry.

"It's difficult, and I also thought about continuing to raise money from Mr. Hu, but there are many conditions that limit my thoughts. I don't know what Mr. Li thinks, he resolutely disagrees with the capital increase and share expansion. ”

The one who can help the pony is the poplar. This time, the two did not go to the food stall on the street, Hu Yang had a treat, and the group came to a Brazilian barbecue restaurant.

The business of this shop has been very prosperous, but there is no private room, so Hu Yang simply took the entire second floor.

It's not that he intends to talk about pomp, it's really to have a good talk with this little brother with a frothing mouth.

Hu Yang and Xiao Ma sat at a table near the window, Han Wen and the others sat at another table a little further away to eat and drink, and Lin Yan came over from time to time to serve the boss.

"Mr. Ma, the whole environment is not good now, the cold winter of the Internet is not just talking, and no one has the bottom of their hearts to invest money again. If I am the only one to participate in the capital increase and share expansion, I can't do it if the valuation is high, and if the valuation is low, won't it dilute everyone's rights and interests, so don't blame Mr. Li. As the saying goes, there are always more ways than difficulties, think about it, there will be a way. ”

Hu Yang has been keeping a close eye on the financial situation of the deep sea, and if there are signs of a collapse, he will take action. But it hasn't reached that point yet, and he doesn't want to act rashly, after all, this is not his own business, and it involves the interests of many people.

For example, Li Kaize of Yingdong Telecom, such as those partners of Xiaoma.

"I hope so. Come, Mr. Hu, I toast you. Pony and Populus Hu touched each other, drank the glass of wine with their heads down, and then continued, "When I first started my business, everyone had a lot of energy. Over time, especially when the company gets its first investment, some people think differently. Now, there is a shareholder who wants to sell his shares, and he has been in contact with the same institution I told you about last time. However, the other party thought that he had too few shares in his hand and did not agree. ”

After saying that, the pony looked at the poplar.

There are some things that don't need to be said explicitly, and Hu Yang also knows what he means, so he said with a smile, "How much does he offer, if it's not outrageous, you can transfer it to me." ”

The shares of 5 are a bit small, but Hu Yang already has the shares of Deep Sea Take-off 20 in his hands, and he doesn't mind adding a little more.
