Chapter 559: Cash Out and Leave

At present, the equity distribution of Huya Technology is 25% for Wang Ye and Tencent, 20% for Ping An Investment, and the last 10% for Huanju Times.

Therefore, if Tencent wants to take control, it must get more than 50% of the shares, and China Merchants Ping An will naturally not make a move now.

Because those two companies are not short of money, and now that Huya Technology has not been listed, wouldn't it be better for them to wait for the listing to appreciate.

Ten percent of the Gathering Era, not to mention whether you can get it, even if you get it, it won't work.

Therefore, the 25 percent in Wang Ye's hands has become the key.

As long as Tencent takes the shares in Wang Ye's hands, it will be able to complete the holding of Huya Technology, and then complete the layout of its own entertainment industry.

The Huya live broadcast platform mastered by Huya Technology Company, as well as the game League of Legends, are all things that Tencent must win.

One is the hottest and most popular platform in the live broadcast industry, and the other is a game that is popular all over the world.

A group of executives also discussed this issue, that is, is it possible for Wang Ye to give up his shares and cash out, and it is on the eve of the listing of Huya Technology!

"I feel unlikely, soon Huya Technology will be listed, everyone knows that the company's market value will rise sharply after listing, especially the prospects of Huya Technology are very promising. How could Wang Ye cash out his shares at this time? Impossible!"

The company's chief financial officer shook his head and said, thinking it was unrealistic.

"As long as it is determined that Wang Ye wants to cash out, is there any difference between cashing out before listing and cashing out after listing? And there is a lock-up period after listing, and many investors are in a hurry to cash out before or when the company goes public. The company's vice president in charge of investment believes that there is still an opportunity.

"I don't think it's impossible, but if you want to buy the 25 percent of Wang Ye's shares, you have to pay a huge price, does the company have so much cash?"

Some executives have asked this realistic question.

Brother Xiao Ma smiled and said: "The problem of money, don't think about it for the time being, I'll be responsible for solving it." In addition, we will not consider whether the shares in Wang Ye's hands will be cashed out, we will only consider whether it is beneficial for our company to take the part of the shares in Wang Ye's hands at a valuation of 60 billion US dollars, and whether everyone is in favor of this acquisition. ”

If the question of money is not considered, then the issue is easy to say, and everyone quickly reached a consensus.

The acquisition of Huya Technology shares is definitely a strategic investment for Tencent, and it is also only good and no bad for the company's future transformation and growth!

……

The reason why Brother Pony is so sure is because he knows it in his heart.

When Wang Ye pulled a few people to invest in Huya Technology together, he said that this was just a financial investment, in order to go public and cash out.

Since it is intended to cash out, wouldn't it be more convenient to cash out before listing, without waiting for a long lock-up period, and there are not so many cumbersome procedures to go, of course, provided that the price offered by Tencent is good enough!

In addition, as for the money required for the acquisition, according to the valuation of 60 billion, Wang Ye holds 25% of the shares of Huya Technology, which is worth 15 billion US dollars!

Such a large sum of money is naturally not available on Tencent's books, but Brother Xiao Ma has his own solution channels.

You must know that Tencent is not controlled by him and a group of executives, there are many investment giants behind the company, and those are the real major shareholders!

For Tencent, this money is naturally impossible to come up with, but for those investment companies, a few can be taken out casually.

What's more, the acquisition of Huya Technology Company is also a good investment.

An Internet technology company that is about to go public in the United States, and controls the domestic live broadcast leader and the world's most promising game company, who would not want to invest in such a company......

……

After reaching a consensus within the company, Xiao Ma didn't wait too long, he called Wang Ye that afternoon and made an appointment to have dinner together after returning to Tianqin Bay in the evening to talk about this matter.

"Wang Dong, is there any arrangement for tonight?"

"Mr. Ma is fine, it's okay at night, what's the matter, you want to help me arrange it?" Wang Ye said with a smile.

"Let's have a meal together that night, come to my house, I will ask the chef to cook a few good Huaiyang dishes, and we will talk while eating, and talk about Huya technology. Brother Ma said.

"No problem, I'll go straight to your house when I get back that night. Wang Ye readily agreed.

Putting down the phone, Wang Ye thought about it, about Huya Technology?

He understands that Tencent seems to be impatient to take control of Huya Technology, and this time Brother Xiao Ma asked himself to talk about acquiring his own shares.

Do you want to cash out and leave the market now, in fact, Wang Ye is also a little hesitant.

If you cash out now, the valuation will be lower, after the listing, the market value will be higher, which everyone knows, and with the background of Huya Technology, the stock price will not fall in the future, this company, with the popularity of the League of Legends game, the market value will be higher and higher.

However, the biggest advantage of cashing out now is that you can get a large amount of cash in advance!

Money has power only when it is in your own hands, otherwise, if it is all real estate and shares, you can't get cash when you want to do anything, and it will also delay the opportunity.

The question is, what do you do with that much money after you get it?

More than 10 billion dollars in cash, if only put in a bank account, is definitely the biggest waste.

Wang Ye spent an afternoon pondering this question, and by the time he was ready to return to Tianqin Bay, the question had already been answered.

There are some things that I wanted to wait for, but now it seems that we can start to do it.

……

Brother Xiaoma's villa is very close to Wang Ye's house, Wang Ye's house is the No. 1 mansion, and Brother Xiaoma's is No. 3, and it is only a few minutes on foot.

Tonight's dinner was very sumptuous, and Brother Xiao Ma instructed the chef at home in advance to prepare a large table of dishes, although there were only two people to eat.

"What about my sister-in-law and niece, why are the two of us eating?"

Wang Ye asked curiously.

Brother Xiao Ma took the decanting glass with a smile on his face, helped Wang Ye pour red wine, and said: "She, she took her children to a foreign country for a vacation, and I am at home, haha." It just so happens that we can talk about things in a clean way. ”

The two chatted while eating, and soon, Brother Xiao Ma couldn't wait to get to the point.

"Wang Dong, about Huya Technology Company, I don't know if the shares in your hands can be transferred to our Tencent Company?"

Wang Ye held the wine glass, shook the red wine in the glass, and said unhurriedly: "You can consider, you know, when I invested in Huya Technology, I just made a financial investment, and the purpose was to go public and cash out." ”

"Since you want to cash out and make money, why not make a move now, our company's bid will definitely satisfy you! Based on the company's highest valuation of $60 billion!"

Wang Ye shook his head: "This price, people outside feel quite high, but you and I both understand the domestic market." Especially in the game market, the League of Legends game alone will be able to net tens of billions of net profits for the company every year in the next few years! In addition, the Huya live broadcast platform must be added. How much is such a company worth?!60 billion US dollars, in my opinion, far underestimates the true value of Huya Technology!"

Of course, Brother Xiao Ma understands that this time in the S3 Finals, League of Legends launched a series of championship skins, and these skins alone have hundreds of millions of daily revenues!

Although League of Legends is a free-to-play game, the more free it is, the more expensive it is!

I don't know how many players spend dozens or hundreds of dollars in order to buy a favorite skin.

There are even some veteran players who take pride in collecting all skins, so there is no upper limit to the cost......

Moreover, this game has a large player base......

Hundreds of millions of players, if you spend an average of 100 yuan a year, that's 10 billion.

In the world, there are far more than 100 million players in League of Legends, so the benefits of this game are really amazing.

Brother Xiao Ma said helplessly: "Then you say, what is the reasonable valuation?"

For Huya Technology, he is determined to win.

Now seeing the valuation of 60 billion US dollars, Wang Ye can't fool him, so he can only let Wang Ye quote himself.

Although the relationship between the two is good, Wang Ye is not soft, and this acquisition is not paid by Brother Xiao Ma himself, it is the major shareholders behind Tencent who pay for it.

"I think 80 billion is a reasonable number. Wang Ye smiled.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he raised the price by 20 billion.

When Brother Xiao Ma heard this, he took a breath of cold air, Wang Ye is really ruthless......

"That's a bit ...... It's high, it's beyond my authority, and I need to discuss it with the major shareholders. Little Brother Ma smiled bitterly.

He knew that since Wang Ye had opened his mouth, there was naturally no room for bargaining.

If you want the 25 percent of the shares in his hand, then take 20 billion US dollars, otherwise, it is estimated that there will be no negotiation.

So, the two stopped talking about it and turned to small talk.

"I heard you ordered a new private jet, a Boeing 747?"

Brother Pony asked curiously.

Wang Ye's newly ordered private jet has been delivered to Pengcheng Airport, with a huge fuselage and a new model, this is still the world's first Boeing 747-8 VIP to officially fly, so it has also spread quickly in the upper circle of Pengcheng.

People like Brother Xiaoma, who don't like gossip, have heard the news, and it is conceivable how many people know about it now.

"Haha, yes, but it's not an ordinary 747 model, it's specially developed for private customers, this aircraft is very good, the interior space is huge, or you can order one too." ”

"Don't, look at that head, it is estimated that the price will not be cheap, I can't compare to you, I can't afford to raise such a big guy. Little Pony waved his hand again and again.

Although his net worth is also tens of billions, it is all virtual, if he really asks him to pay billions in cash, Brother Xiao Ma really can't take it out.

As the chairman of Tencent, he can't announce that he will reduce his holdings and cash out.

If you dare to do that, it is estimated that Tencent's stock price will plummet.

……

didn't delay too long, after Brother Xiao Ma went back to discuss with the company's major shareholders, although everyone was a little pained by the valuation of 80 billion, but finally decided to buy those shares in Wang Ye's hands.

If you don't buy it now, wait until Huya Technology Company goes public, and then want to acquire enough shares, I don't know if you will pay more money, but it will definitely be very difficult!

Since you are optimistic, it is better to start now, buy it early, and feel at ease.

On November 8, Huya Technology Company issued an announcement.

"Notice of change in the company's shares: Mr. Wang Ye, the original shareholder, has now transferred all his shares to Pengcheng Tencent Computer Company, and Tencent Company now controls 50% of the company's shares and has become the largest shareholder. ”

The announcement is very simple, but it has caused great repercussions in the domestic Internet field and investment circles.

Many people don't understand why Wang Ye will transfer his shares before Huya is about to go public.

"I don't understand, Huya will be listed soon, and if you sell it now, wouldn't it be a loss!"

"Is there anything that Wang Dong needs to use urgently now? No matter how you think about it, you shouldn't sell Huya's shares now?"

"Oh, why didn't the news of Wang Dong's transfer of shares come out in advance, I am willing to buy such shares, it's a pity to miss this opportunity. ”

These questions were not silenced until the share transfer price was circulated.

Originally, there were many objections to the valuation of Huya Technology's $60 billion, and many investment companies thought that a live broadcast platform could not support such a high valuation, and when it was listed, it was estimated that it would be completely exposed.

Moreover, although the League of Legends game is very popular now, how long can the game live?

What if in two or three years, the game is cold?

Or will there be more popular games in the future, and players will play other games?

In that case, is Huya Technology equivalent to being cut off a leg?

But this time, Tencent was really bold and went so far as to acquire the shares in Wang Ye's hands at a valuation of 80 billion.

Wang Ye accounts for 25% of Huya Technology's shares, which is something that everyone knows, so wouldn't it cost a high price of $20 billion to acquire these shares!

Half a year ago, when Huya Technology was founded, Wang Ye invested 5 billion yuan, which is also public information, and everyone knows it.

5 billion RMB, half a year, 20 billion US dollars!

Such an ROI is too rebellious, isn't it......

……

AFTER GETTING THE MONEY FOR THE TRANSFER OF SHARES, WANG YE SUMMONED LISA AND SUSAN, TWO OF HIS BIG GENERALS IN TERMS OF INVESTMENT.

OF COURSE, SUSAN IS AN EMPLOYEE OF CITI, BUT THIS TIME, WANG YE'S ACTIONS ALSO NEED TO BE SUPPORTED BY CITI.

He needed a team of professionals to take on the next big plan.

Time is running out for your retirement, and it's time to take a hit on some companies!
