Chapter 117: Hanhua Reorganization
……
"What about Ctrip and NetEase?"
"Ctrip.com: We invested 1 million and accounted for 30 shares. NetEase has basically reached an agreement of $15 million to reserve 15 shares for the management, including Ding Lei!"
"Good job! But Ctrip's stake is a bit low! I don't think there's anyone competing with us in that. ”
Among Tencent, Alibaba, NetEase, Baidu, and Ctrip, the latter is the least valuable now. Not to mention the short time of establishment, and it is still a grass platform team that is not favored by venture capital, and the company's operating funds are all maintained by the part-time income of the three founders. Such a company should be able to easily get a large amount of equity.
"Boss, the founder of Ctrip was unwilling to give up decision-making power over the company, so he rejected our acquisition. Even the bottom line of Series A financing is 30 shares!"
Guo Shouyun nodded.
The more shares you pay in Series A, the more you will likely lose your absolute controlling stake in the company in Series B, which is a risky decision for the founders.
"I see. After you, you pay more attention to Ctrip. Don't miss out on the opportunity as long as you have the chance!"
"Understood!"
"By the way, how much money does GCA Investment have on its books now?"
"There are still $28.6 million, but if the acquisition of Tencent goes well, some of it will be spent!"
Nodding in response, after thinking about it, Guo Shouyun continued: "If the merger and acquisition goes smoothly, leave 10 million funds, and the rest will be handed over to your Hanhua Capital!"
"Thank you boss for your trust!"
"You're welcome, this is what we said at the beginning!" After a pause, "Also, around Christmas, you can make an appointment with Ma Huateng and Ding Lei, and the three of you will come to the United States together! I want to meet them in person, and by the way, talk about the development of Tencent and NetEase, as well as the issue of listing in the future!"
Guo Shouyun is very aware of the national conditions of China, although Hanhua has the absolute controlling stake in Tencent and NetEase, although it is a happy thing, but his current nationality is not Chinese, so the holding of Tencent and NetEase is not a long-term solution!
Therefore, on the basis of ensuring his future interests, he should clear the obstacles to the development of Tencent and NetEase as much as possible. As for the specific method, he already has it, but he still wants to talk to Ma Huateng and Ding Lei in detail to gain their trust and support.
"Okay!"
"By the way, how much money does GCA Capital manage now?"
"Not counting the $30 million invested by the boss, the funds managed by Hanhua Capital are only 25.8 million Huaxia dollars... I'm sorry, boss, I betrayed your trust!" Zhang Lei said guiltily.
"No need to apologize, Lao Zhang! The company was first established, and there were no achievements that could be made, and it was very good to have these achievements. And in the past six months, you have been following my baton, and it is normal that it is difficult to allocate energy!"
Although Zhang Lei is a handsome talent in the investment industry, he is still too young after all, and he is far from the deep connections and smooth wrists that he had more than ten years later.
However, this is just right for Guo Shouyun, who can not only carry out his orders to the letter, but also have strong cultivation value. If it is really replaced by Tang Valentine, or Wang Chaoyong, his ability is strong enough, and the relationship is strong enough, but he may not be able to command the other party. He has learned enough about this from Michael Moretz.
Fortunately, at the beginning, he poached Michael Moretz for Google's equity, and he didn't really plan to make the other party obedient, so after getting along for most of the year, the two got along well.
"Thank you boss for your understanding!"
Guo Shouyun responded, and after a slight groan, "Lao Zhang, I have an idea that I plan to discuss with you?"
"You say?"
"I plan to form a new company between Hanhua Investment Management Co., Ltd. and your Hanhua Capital! In this new company, there will be an asset management department, a wealth management department, and an investment department, and you will be the CEO of this company! In addition, I will divest the ownership of the shares of Tencent, Alibaba, NetEase, Ctrip, and Baidu under Hanhua Investment Management Co., Ltd., but the management rights will be placed under the asset management department of Hanhua Company!"
"I agree with the boss's decision!"
Soon, Zhang Lei's calm tone came from the earpiece. Guo Shouyun was not surprised by his recognition. With the wisdom of the other party, it is easy to guess why he wants to change the management structure of Hanhua.
In fact, after more than half a year of experience in the business world, Guo Shouyun's thinking is undoubtedly much more mature than when he was just reborn. I also have a new experience of giving and taking. Therefore, at the beginning, the idea of wanting to intervene in all the industries that make money has now been thrown out of the sky by him. In this case, there is no need for a company such as GCA Investment Management Co., Ltd., which is set up specifically for investment and overlaps with GCA Capital's business.
Guo Shouyun has already thought about it, and in the future, key companies like Tencent and Alibaba, which will not easily sell their shares, will be placed under several offshore shell companies. Then the management was placed in the company. In this way, GCA can use these companies as gimmicks to attract customers. And Guo Shouyun doesn't have to scruple to divide the equity of Hanhua, which will make others cheaper for himself.
At the same time, without his deliberate suppression, GCA can expand its business by attracting capable partners through equity like a real financial company!
Zhang Lei also figured out this, so he easily agreed to Guo Shouyun's suggestion.
"Just agree. In addition, considering the initial establishment of the company, there are many things. I'll send you a few helpers!" Guo Shouyun's eyes flashed with a fine light.
"Hehe, okay. I'm still worried that there are no suitable talents around me!" Zhang Lei said with a smile.
Speaking of which, the two reached an agreement tacitly. As a financial company that may have to manage all of Guo Shouyun's assets in Huaxia in the future. Although he trusts Zhang Lei very much, in the end, it is the hearts of the people who are separated from the belly, and out of precautions, Zhang Lei's rights must be checked and balanced. And Zhang Lei agreed so happily because he understood this.
"By the way, one of the helpers I found for you this time is a beautiful woman, you 28-year-old single dog should take advantage of the opportunity!" Guo Shouyun, who felt that the atmosphere was too serious, half-jokingly.
"Older single dog?"
This Internet hit in later generations made Zhang Lei's forehead hang countless black lines.
"Boss, when did you start being a matchmaker?" Zhang Lei said with a wry smile.
"Hehe, once in a while, I've said what I need to say. The next time you come to the United States, I'll pick you up!"
"Hmm!"
Finally, the two hung up after a brief chat.
After putting down the phone, Guo Shouyun sighed.
"Huaxia has done it here. The United States also needs to sort it out!"
Thinking of this, Guo Shouyun picked up the phone, but just as he was about to dial, he frowned slightly and thought about it and put it down. The matter of shorting Enron has reached a critical moment, and he is unwilling to insert an unexpected factor in at this time.
"Forget it, let's wait until this level is over!"
"Jingle bell...!"
At this moment, the mobile phone he had just put down suddenly rang. I picked it up and looked at the caller ID and then connected it.
"Hey, Bruce, don't forget tonight's party!"
Cheng Tinghua's voice came from it clearly.
"At seven o'clock in the evening, San Ramon 117 is right, right?" Guo Shouyun said indifferently.
"Hey, that's right, that's right! Friendly reminder, there's a surprise tonight. If you don't come sooner, you might not have your share!"
"Okay, I got it. I'll be there early in the evening!"
Regarding Cheng Tinghua's so-called surprise, even if he doesn't say Guo Shouyun, he can guess it. It's nothing more than a woman. A group of young people with extraordinary backgrounds get together, wine and color are indispensable. And in comparison, a woman's appearance will be more outstanding, just look at Sicong's side.
However, Guo Shouyun didn't have much expectations for this. No matter how beautiful they are, they may not be as good as their girlfriend Molly Bevan and assistant Wendy Solo.
"That's good, that's good! I'm waiting for you!"
After agreeing and chatting briefly, Guo Shouyun hung up the phone.
Putting down the mobile phone, Guo Shouyun, who noticed that he had been sitting for too long, stood up and walked back and forth in the study a few times, and after stretching his body, he returned to the computer again and called up a piece of information.
"I just don't know how many of these people will go?"
