Chapter 1302: Do You Think I'm Short of Money?
By the time Li Mu and the veterans returned to the hotel together, it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.
More than 300 persons in charge of the enterprise have reached ninety percent, and all of them have checked in under the arrangement of the staff.
In addition to a main stage and sign-in wall, Li Mu did not make extra material preparations, this charity night, Li Mu's hope is to keep everything simple, put aside all the details, and directly throw the core of this charity night to everyone.
Li Mu received a number of phone calls from Mr. Li, he always wanted to meet with him before the charity night began, hoping to talk about something important in private, Li Mu could probably guess his purpose, so he made an appointment with him to meet in his room at five o'clock.
At 4:40, Mr. Li came and knocked on the door.
Li Ziwei opened the door and invited Mr. Li to the living room of the suite, where Li Mugang sat down and drank tea.
Seeing Mr. Li come in, Li Mu greeted him warmly: "Mr. Li, come on, take a sip of tea." ”
Mr. Li was also very polite, and said to Li Mu with a smile: "I haven't seen Mr. Li for a long time!"
Li Mu smiled dumbly and said: "You are also Mr. Li, I am also Mr. Li, I can't tell the difference between stupidity, I still have a Li Zhu here, and it's really troublesome for the three surnamed Li to call each other together." ”
Only then did Mr. Li realize that Li Mu's assistant Li Ziwei was also surnamed Li.
Li Mu said: "In this way, you can call me Li Mu, I will call you Robin, this is my assistant, Li Ziwei, you can call her Ziwei." ”
Mr. Li smiled and nodded, inevitably happy in his heart, because Li Mu actually knew that his English name was robin, which made him feel very honored.
At present, Li Mu's volume has grown to the point that Internet people across the country look up to him, and Mr. Li is the same, he debuted very early and became famous early, but this is useless, there are still a lot of people in the domestic Internet who are older than him, but they all have to bow their heads in front of Li Mu, who makes Li Mu's volume huge, the current market value of Muye Technology is nearly 100 times that of Baidu, this alone is enough for Mr. Li to downgrade himself by three levels in front of Li Mu.
Li Mu invited Mr. Li to sit down beside him, Li Ziwei was busy pouring him a cup of tea, Mr. Li took a sip of tea and exclaimed: "Mr. Li, this Pu'er tea is really good!"
Li Mu said: "Look at you, didn't you say that you call me by my name, and I will call you Robin?"
Robin smiled slightly and said, "You call me robin, and I call you Mr. Li, which is more appropriate." ”
Li Mu shook his head helplessly, thinking that you can call it whatever you like, so he asked him: "Robin, what is the matter with me?"
Robin hesitated slightly, but still said: "Mr. Li, then I'll get straight to the point, we had cooperation on Yiting.com before, and then for some reasons, Baidu got off in advance, but to be honest, there is a great demand for online music search, audition and download, and Yiting.com is the leader in this field, so we hope to be able to acquire Yiting.com, a supplement to our business and traffic, after all, Yiting.com is currently very chicken for Mr. Li's business structure." ”
Li Mu knew that Robin had something to say, Baidu did have shares of Yiting.com, but he got out of the car in advance, but he didn't violate professional ethics, but he didn't get tired of cheating, at that time Baidu felt that he was going to lead Yiting.com on the wrong road, so he took the initiative to get out of the car and leave, and then Yiting.com rose, and they regretted it and couldn't help it, they could only blame themselves for their lack of vision and lack of firmness.
At the beginning, the son of Mr. Li, the richest man in Hong Kong, held 20% of Tengxun's shares, but because his mentality was not firm enough, he got off early and missed the supercarrier with a market value of 3 trillion yuan, but who can blame him.
So Li Mu didn't answer the stubble in his words, and said to him directly: "Robin, to tell you the truth, Yiting.com is still very important to my entire industry pattern." ”
After saying this, the subtext in Li Mu's heart was: Yiting.com is indeed chicken now, but if you want to buy it, then it is my baby.
Robin also knows that Li Mu is not a good stubble, although he is very charitable and generous, but when he does business, he is the most treacherous businessman in the world.
Therefore, Robin did not detour with Li Mu, and said directly: "If Mr. Li is interested in selling Yiting.com, he can quote us a price, if Baidu's strength is not enough, we can operate through the funds behind it, in short, as long as the price is right, Baidu can accept it." ”
Li Mu smiled and said nothing, only to see that Robin felt a little hairy, and then Li Mu asked him: "Robin, do you think I am short of money?"
Robin was immediately speechless.
Is Li Mu short of money? Of course, he is not short of money.
He not only has three big companies in his hands, but also Yiting.com, and a "Miracle MU" that continues to earn cash for him, and in the last round of financing of Muye Technology, Li Mu has just set up a large amount of cash in hand.
There are many people who do the Internet in China, but most of the assets are illusory value, Li Mu is not only the first in value, but also the first in cash.
It's really difficult to do business with someone who is not short of money, and you want to buy what the other person has in their hands.
However, Li Mu is not short of money, but Robin knows in his heart that Baidu really lacks an easy-to-listen network.
Immediately, he said to Li Mu very humbly: "Mr. Li, I know that with your current asset situation, you are not short of money at all, but Yiting.com is your asset after all, if the asset has a suitable opportunity to realize, it is not impossible to consider cashing, after all, cash operation is more flexible......
Li Mu waved his hand and said seriously: "Robin, I don't agree with your point of view, out of friendship, I also suggest that you don't be too obsessed with cash in the future, the future economic development will definitely lead to currency depreciation, so I suggest that you have in addition to the necessary emergency funds, all the remaining cash is used as investment assets, if you have the heart to take care of it, you can make an angel investment fund, if you don't want to take care of it, simply exchange cash for real estate is also a good choice, it is very irrational to keep too much cash in your hand." ”
Li Mu seemed to be giving Robin a better financial advice, but he also simply rejected Robin's request, if Li Mu would sell Yiting.com simply to cash out, then he would not be the current Li Mu.
Robin looked embarrassed, he knew that it would be difficult for Li Mu to agree to sell Yiting.com, but he didn't expect Li Mu to refuse so simply.
Thinking that Li Mu had told him that sooner or later he would sell Yiting.com to him, Robin felt bitter in his heart.
There is no way to say this kind of thing again, Li Mu didn't give himself any promises, it's just a matter of a word, if he catches it and lets Li Mu fulfill it, it will seem that his IQ is low, but Baidu does need easy listening to the network very much, if you don't get Li Mu's support, the future Baidu traffic may be lower and lower, after all, now you have to beware of Google, a behemoth, Robin's life is not easy at all.
At this time, even Robin himself can't believe that Google will one day withdraw from the Chinese market and leave the search engine market of more than one billion people to himself, so he can be described as having internal and external troubles now, and he can't sleep all day.
Li Mu saw his helplessness, in front of him, he really has no convincing power now, and he has no weight at all, if he wants to sell Yiting.com, it is completely impossible to convince himself with his ability, not to mention, he has his own plans.
So, Li Mu said to Robin earnestly: "Robin, you really don't know how much Yiting.com means to me. ”
Robin looked at Li Mu with a confused face, and felt very unhappy, I have already seen through you if you don't tell the truth all day long, damn when I fooled me to get out of the car, I shouldn't have been fooled by you, your easy listening network hasn't made any big moves for a long time, everyone knows that it means a lot to you, I want to buy it now, and you told me that this thing means a lot to you, you are really not an ordinary profiteer!
Li Mu didn't care what Robin thought of himself, he said with emotion: "Oh, you don't know, Yiting.com is my first entrepreneurial project, from the Yiting.com itself, I haven't used it to make a penny, in order to ensure the user experience of Yiting.com, I haven't even taken any external advertising on Yiting.com, but, Yiting.com is the incubator of my entire product empire!"
Speaking of this, Li Mu paused, took a sip of tea, and sighed: "If it weren't for Yiting.com, I would naturally not be able to incubate the huge online community of Tieba." And the sticker, is the real beginning of my Internet dream, you must know, I gathered users through the sticker, and through the promotion of happy farm in the sticker, so it took away the user connections of Tengxun QQ, and finally created the current Makino technology. ”
Robin nodded, what Li Mu said is right, his family history has been studied countless times in the whole industry as the Bible, really as Li Mu said, everything was incubated from the Yiting.com, although now the easy-to-listen network seems to be irrelevant to Li Mu, but all of Li Mu's big products today are hatched and born from here.
At this time, Li Mu looked at Robin and asked him: "Do you say it yourself, does it mean a lot to me?" I will say something unashamed, it is equivalent to an apple smashed on Newton's head, without that apple, Newton may not become a physicist, the same, if there is no Yiting.com, there is no current me." ”
Robin was embarrassed, nodded and said, "Mr. Li, what you said is right, but although this apple is of great significance, I am afraid that it will rot if you keep it in your hand......"
Li Mu said: "There are conditions at home, it is so significant, if it really comes to the day when it can't keep it fresh, it is worth buying a refrigerator for it, and if it doesn't work, you can also make it into a specimen, not for eating, just to keep it, leave a memorial for yourself, this is always okay, right?"
Robin is about to cry, he really can't play Li Mu's hanging man, he can say black into white, white as black, and a rotten apple as gold, what can he do? If the law doesn't care, he can't wait to fight him now.
Just when Robin was extremely melancholy, Li Mu suddenly changed his words and said: "Robin, why don't you go back and discuss with your shareholders and the capital behind you, and merge Yiting.com!"
"M&A?!" Robin's second fear came true.
He is most afraid that Li Mu will not sell it, and secondly, he is afraid that Li Mu is willing to sell, but he is not willing to sell for money, but wants to let himself take Baidu's shares to merge and acquisition.
Li Mu seemed to have seen through all Robin's thoughts at this time, he smiled slightly, and said: "If you can give Yiting.com a good M&A offer, I will give you Yiting.com, and at the same time, I will also let Muye Technology give you enough resources." ”
Speaking of this, Li Mu took Robin's expression on his face, and said with a confident smile: "Robin, you know better than anyone how much traffic I have in my hands, and besides, let me say something from the bottom of my heart, I am not ready to be a search engine, I am too tired to do your job." ”
