Chapter 1483: Different Philosophies of the East and the West

For capital, enough concepts and prospects are equal to enough value, Li Mu has experienced more than ten years of rapid development of the Internet industry, and has a very deep understanding of this truth.

It is based on this understanding that he knows how to create a win-win situation in front of the capitalists, whether it is a win-win situation or a win-win situation, as long as the trader's pattern is big enough, far-sighted enough, and the control is firm, all can be realized.

The concept that Li Mu gave to Google is: the world's largest search engine, except for non-Chinese search engines, is the undisputed No.1 in any language field, and there is no opponent in the world, the only Makino technology that has the ability to defeat it has also become its godfather, with Makino technology as a backing, whether it is Microsoft, Yahoo or any other company, it is impossible to threaten Google's position, Google will be undefeated in the field of search engines;

Li Mu gave Baidu the concept that the world's largest Chinese search engine, also backed by Makino Technology, even Google is unlikely to have a substantial impact on its core business, it will be divided into two worlds with Google, and under the coordination of Makino Technology, peaceful coexistence, which will ensure its position in the Chinese search engine, compared to before, the current prospects are very good, and it has Google 3.33% This is a huge supplement to the increase in its own market value, so it seems that although Baidu may lose the future overseas market, but the capital market did not expect it to snatch overseas market resources from Google, in the eyes of the capital market, Baidu can hold the Chinese search market, it is already the biggest success;

And Li Mu left himself the concept is: Makino Technology has become the world's two largest search engine shareholders, locked the search engine market dividends in advance, Google and Baidu in the next ten or twenty years, a considerable part of the mission is to make money for Makino Technology, and Li Mu did not pay any substantial price for this, he just sent the search needs of his users themselves to Google and Baidu, which is not the loss of resources for Li Mu, but the in-depth development of resources;

Three different companies, three completely different but not conflicting with each other, and can form a complementary concept, which lays the foundation for the three companies to form a win-win situation in the capital market, which has a huge attraction to capital.

Soon, the capital market conducted an in-depth analysis of Google's acquisition of Muye &Baidu, and their predictions of Google's prospects are almost the same as Li Mu's, and even more optimistic than Li Mu, they believe that Google's valuation will be able to stand at a high level of $20 billion by the end of the year, and double the following year, followed by an IPO, and will definitely not encounter any resistance.

And their prediction of the prospects of Makino Technology is even more optimistic, because Li Mu's current "godfather" status has begun to be highlighted on a global scale.

Makino Technology owns Baidu and Google two search engine shares, and at the source of the traffic and viscosity of users, in the future, even if Makino Technology itself is not engaged in any search engine business, this dividend has been steadily eaten into the mouth, with the capital market's estimation of the search engine market prospects, the future of Makino Technology alone by this part of the shares, it is possible to create a market value of 100 billion US dollars.

It's scary to think about.

Let's not talk about the business I own, the business I hold alone has the potential to be worth hundreds of billions of dollars, and a company like Makino Technology is already a supergiant in the Internet industry.

It is precisely because of this understanding that the valuation of Makino Technology in the capital market has exceeded 100 billion US dollars, if Makino Technology decides to carry out a new round of financing now, the capital can be given at least more than 12 million US dollars, if Li Mu has the intention of IPO next year, as long as it is announced, the capital will definitely give a higher premium in order to catch up with the last chance, and 150 billion US dollars is not a problem.

Without being pitted by Li Mu, Google's valuation has fallen to within the 5 billion range, and it is likely to continue to fall in the future;

was pitted by Li Mu, Google's valuation can not only return to more than 10 billion, but also may exceed 40 billion next year, this huge contrast has given those doers and technology nerds a huge stimulus.

The capitalists' re-optimism about Google's prospects made these doers and technical nerds suddenly realize that the capital operation is not the addition in their minds, but Li Mu's multiplication, which originally seemed to be Google's big loss, because of Li Mu's trading, so that after it was really put in the capital market, Google gained great benefits!

Google's "lucky experience" has made many companies look forward to joining Li Mu's ecology and becoming the next Google by sacrificing part of their equity.

After YY landed in the United States with a raptor crossing the river, Paradise Town and Plants vs. Zombies swept the world like a storm, YYtunes brought music lovers around the world together, and Apple was acquired by Makino Technology, Li Mu once again shook the entire Silicon Valley and Wall Street.

This time, Li Mu used the conspiracy left by his ancestors in China to stage an unparalleled capital riot operation for Silicon Valley and Wall Street.

Every day, the capital market hears a lot about the routine operations such as acquisitions, mergers and acquisitions, investments, shareholdings, splits, and mergers, as well as unconventional operations such as monopoly, malicious competition, and malicious mergers and acquisitions.

Li Mu made Google finally accept to acquire Muye& at a huge price, which is actually a successful textbook-level case of "malicious merger and acquisition".

Silicon Valley and Wall Street's reports on this merger and acquisition have almost covered all the front page headlines, but everyone's opinion is seriously two-sided, one side feels that Li Mu's operation is incomparable and impeccable, and can even be written into the financial field textbook as a classic case, and the other side feels that Li Mu's operation has really set a bad precedent for the capital market, and in the future, such "malicious mergers and acquisitions" may emerge in endlessly.

However, a report in the Wall Street Journal analyzed Li Mu's approach from another angle, and the author of this report was signed Rui-Liu, who seems to be a Chinese or Chinese-American, and he commented on Li Mu's "malicious merger and acquisition" in the article:

"Westerners have their own set of philosophies, the same is true for Orientals, the two cultures are very different, which is destined to make it difficult for Westerners to learn the strategy of Orientals, and it is difficult for Orientals to learn the logic of Westerners, Orientals, especially Chinese, from the generation of their ancestors, pay attention to everything and then act, which makes the routines of Chinese people to do things much more complicated than Westerners, in the eyes of Westerners there are only one or two solutions to things, in China, because of strategy, and there are many kinds of solutions. โ€

In the eyes of Westerners, there is no third solution to this kind of thing, but in China, there are countless solutions to this kind of thing, such as Li Mu's "malicious merger and acquisition" of Google, which is not common in the West, but in China, especially in China, such cases happen almost every day. โ€

Rui-Liu gives an example to Western readers in the article: "Suppose A and B are business partners, and A owes B 500,000 yuan, but the two parties still cooperate, and the amount of cooperation and the profit generated are far greater than 500,000 yuan, B's demand for the 500,000 yuan debt will become weak and lacking confidence, unlike Westerners who do business, and all the accounts are sorted out clearly, one yard to one yard;"

At this time, he thought that he just had an Audi A6L that had been driven for five years, and the car was just 500,000 when he bought it in Huaxia five years ago, but the current market price was at most 200,000, so he said to B: I'm sorry, I'm a little tight recently, and the debt of 500,000 is not convenient for you for the time being, but my A6L is 500,000 yuan, or you drive this car away, let's settle the accountใ€‚ โ€

"What A really wants to release to B is actually this: you either accept this car to offset the debt of 500,000 yuan, or you can wait indefinitely, and you may not get a cent of 500,000 yuan in the end. Such a solution is incomprehensible and unacceptable in the eyes of Westerners, but in China, most people like B would choose to accept this seemingly obviously inappropriate deal, because for them, it is the best solution to recover as much as possible without hurting the peace;

So, the final practical solution to this debt is: A gave B a car worth only 200,000 yuan at most, offsetting his 500,000 debt with B, it seems that A seems to be very shameless, but it cannot be denied that this is indeed a legal transaction that you are willing to do, from this point of view, A is successful, and he successfully solved the debt of 500,000 yuan legally with the actual value of 200,000 yuan, which is a common 'malicious merger and acquisition' among Chinese people. โ€

This article has caused a great response in Silicon Valley and Wall Street, many people are discussing the cases mentioned in the article, discussing this oriental strategy, and using it as a standard to measure Li Mu's "malicious merger and acquisition". Baidu's method of selling to Google has a very big similarity with the car repayment mentioned by Rui-Liu in the article, they both use stratagem to reasonably play scoundrels, and use stratagem instead of violence to make the other party willingly accept an obviously unreasonable and unfair cooperation.

But there is another passage in Rui-Liu's article that has been very recognized by Western elites, saying: "In fact, strictly speaking, any commercial transaction is unfair, and the actual material cost of a bottle of Coca-Cola may only be a few cents, but in the United States, it is sold for almost a dollar, a difference of dozens of times, is it fair? Is it fair for a middleman to buy a certain commodity from a supplier at a price of one dollar and sell it to users for several dollars?"

"If Coca-Cola can sell half a gallon of water mixed with sugar and other additives for three dollars, why can't Li Mu sell a $10 million company for billions of dollars?"
