Chapter 955: I Can Understand Your Difficulty (Ask for Subscription)

Chen Chuliang made a $2 billion offer for Meg Whitman.

Immediately there was a feeling of chatting and talking about death.

So that Meg Whitman didn't know how to talk to Chen Chuliang normally.

"Mr. Chen....$2 billion valuation, I'm afraid it's not a joke. ”

Two days ago, Chen Chuliang acquired PayPal at a valuation of 1 billion.

It's only been two days.

Valuations have doubled.

However, now, the other party has the goods in hand, and Meg Whitman needs it very much, and the other party has the final say on how much the price increases, and Meg Whitman can only complain and can't do anything else.

Chen Chuliang knew that his offer was too high, but he knew very well that this offer was not outrageously high for Meg Whitman, who is now facing difficulties.

You know, how much did eBay's stock fall in the two days after he bought PayPal?

I'm afraid there are 2 billion, right?

For the capital level.

The valuation of 2 billion is not much at all.

If you can turn around the loss of 2 billion.

The capital level is not distressed at all.

But.

If it is allowed again, eBay's stock will be affected and continue to fall.

I'm afraid the whole eBay is going to start to get cranky.

So.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Chuliang had a good convincing power to persuade Meg Whitman, and said: "Ms. Meg, I have been concerned about the stock of NASDAQ eBay in the past two days....I'm afraid that the market value of eBay has fallen off a cliff....I think....whether it is from the overall layout or the shareholders of eBay, the valuation of $2 billion is not much at all..."

Hearing that Chen Chuliang did not back down, and also grasped his own weakness, Meg Whitman had already begun to fear this young man who had never met before, but through a simple series of operations, their company had fallen a big way.

Sure enough, the war in the mall is changing rapidly.

Maybe.

The current situation is what the young man in front of him has long thought of.

At this point, since it had been calculated by the other party, Meg Whitman stabilized her mentality, and in a very calm tone, she talked to Chen Chuliang through a Chinese translation: "Mr. Chen... What you are talking about is indeed the current difficulty of our eBay, but it is not a bargaining chip that you use to blackmail, I hope that we can really reach a cooperation, you have for the technology to buy Musk's company is to expand the overseas market, right? eBay can provide you with the greatest help, including to your own users, push your products, I know, your company is doing instant messaging, we eBay has hundreds of millions of users, don't you like such a huge user base?"

It seems that Meg Whitman has prepared a lot of chips to move Chen Chuliang.

These things were all thrown out directly after Chen Chuliang made a price.

Not to mention, after Chen Chuliang heard this, he must have been moved.

He smiled.

Expressed concern for Meg Whitman's rhetoric.

"Ms. Meg seems to have called in good faith.

However, he still has a mentality that the goods are good to sell, and he talked to Meg Whitman: "Ms. Meg is not a professional Internet practitioner, is she... You don't know that as long as there is sufficient capital to join, the number of users is not the key to restricting an Internet company at all. However, eBay's users and existing channels are not useless....Admittedly, your sincerity is full, but my offer of $2 billion is not a lot... If Ms. Meg can accept it, then there is nothing wrong with your eBay staking a stake in PayPal. ”

"You ......"

After all, Meg Whitman is an elderly woman, and she is in her forties, and she really can't be angry, it's not good for her health.

She hadn't seen Chen Chuliang.

But in the confrontation with the other party, he has been tricked three times and twice.

Chen Chuliang has no good intentions, and eBay has a lot of money. 2 billion is just for them, that is, to tighten the spending.

Besides, this is a valuation of 2 billion, and eBay will not join in so much, at most it will be a few hundred million, if the stock market can be recovered, this expenditure is simply pediatrics.

No matter what the mood of Meg Whitman on the other side was, Chen Chuliang just said: "Ms. Meg, please don't continue to delay everyone's time, if you don't agree, maybe the next time you call, it will not be a 2 billion offer, maybe it will be 3 billion... I hope you understand that my time is also precious. ”

Meg Whitman also solemnly entered the topic of negotiation with Chen Chuliang at this time and said: "If I agree to your offer of $2 billion." I want to know, how much of our eBay control is now PayPal?"

Chen Chuliang smiled slightly, and finally entered the negotiation as a whole, Meg Whitman's question he had already thought about how to answer, and said neatly: "After eBay becomes a shareholder, I will dilute the shareholding ratio of both the technology and Musk team, among them, we have 73% of the shares of Wei Technology now, diluted to 51% of the shares, and the Musk team originally accounted for 27% of the shares, diluted to 12.5% of the shares, and the remaining 36.5% of the shares are held by your eBay...... What do you think?"

Smiling, Chen Chuliang said that he had already allocated it and was willing to take it out, and said the shareholding ratio of the transaction with Meg Whitman.

When Meg Whitman heard this, she almost had a heart attack. Directly and unceremoniously said: "Mr. Chen, you only take out 36.5% of the shares, that is, according to the current valuation of 2 billion, we have to pay 730 million US dollars to get these shares? And this money is all the funds paid by Mr. Chen to acquire PayPal two days ago? That is to say, in just two days, Mr. Chen, you bought PayPal, but it was our eBay who paid the bill?"

Meg Whitman wants to say, is Chen Chuliang taking their eBay for a fool?

If they agree to such an equity distribution, I am afraid that the whole of Silicon Valley will laugh at them eBay, and this time they made a very beautiful money-losing deal.

After hearing this, Chen Chuliang smiled, and said in his heart, Meg Whitman is not too stupid: "If Ms. Meg cares, others will say that eBay will only do loss-making transactions when doing business, then we don't have to talk about it, the market is like this, you can also choose to give up investing in PayPal." ”

Finally, Meg Whitman endured it for a long time before she burst into her temper. took the translator's phone, talked to Chen Chuliang and said, "You are a typical white wolf with empty gloves."

Chen Chuliang didn't mind Meg Whitman's praise at all, and said with a smile: "I agreed, there are too many talented people in Silicon Valley and Wall Street in the United States, and my little trick is not enough." ”

Meg Whitman was also unhappy in her heart and exploded, but it was soon better.

It's just that, in this way, the negotiations suddenly entered a silent stage.

Chen Chuliang and Meg Whitman, who is far away in Silicon Valley, both fell into a step that did not back down.

The whole world is an extremely quiet existence.

In the end, it was Chen Chuliang who 'heh'. "Ms. Meg, if eBay cares about face, then the matter of our tripartite shareholding can be changed to a secret agreement... Externally, we only announce the shareholding of the three parties....Moreover, we will cooperate with you to vigorously promote the belief that it can bring you the confidence to believe again in the capital?"

Meg Whitman continued without saying a word.

Because, every game that Chen Chuliang said smashed on her heart and couldn't refute it.

I heard Chen Chuliang continue: "Of course, eBay also has to fulfill its promise to push our products to your users, and I will go to Silicon Valley in the United States next month to meet with Ms. Meg at that time?"

What else can Meg Whitman say.

The other party is like a giant hand pinching their eBay neck, and it doesn't matter if it's a knife horizontally or vertically.

I don't want to struggle anymore. Meg Whitman said: "Mr. Chen, I'm sorry, I can't make the decision on your terms, I will immediately notify eBay to hold a board meeting, and I will give you an answer after the discussion." ”

Chen Chuliang actually said very gentlemanly: "It's okay, Ms. Meg, I can understand your difficulty. ”
