Chapter 173 Share Exchange
There is just one question, if Qian Xiaodong sells him, must he sell it?
Chen Zier can't say that it will definitely not be, if Xu Yan also gives up and does not continue to do Home Credit, and then China.com will dismember and integrate it as a whole.
At that time, the company will not exist as Ning Ya said......
Chen Zier frowned slightly, she seemed to be saying so just now.
Then he really can't help but prepare, in case Xu Yan has to sell it as soon as his brain is pumped, then he will definitely have to negotiate conditions with China.com in the end, after all, this company will not exist.
But the last person to talk about the conditions will definitely not be able to negotiate good conditions, at least not as good as the first two.
"Home Credit has grown rapidly in the past few months, especially since their portal is already the number one portal in China, how much do you value it?" asked Chen Ziyi.
"How much does Mr. Chen think is the right valuation?" Ning Ya didn't tell him the answer.
Chen Zier thought about it, now the concept of the Internet is super hot, basically the most serious bubble in the year or two, Sina's predecessor Sifang Litong dared to value $15 million in this year, and he still has two opponents in that time and space, Sohu and NetEase.
At this time, Home Credit, even if the development time is short, is the first identity in China, and those opponents have just recognized the direction of the portal.
In this way, the valuation of $20 million is an absolute value, and it is not impossible to dare to shout to $25 million.
"$25 million. Chen Zier is not small, and he also sees the future of the portal more clearly.
When Ning Ya heard this number, she knew that she was afraid that this negotiation would not be completed......
"Mr. Chen, your price is too high. She was a little helpless.
That's a lot of money.
Chen Zier said: "I haven't said I want to sell it yet." You think I'm overpriced. ”
"That's it, Mr. Chen, can I get to your dinner?" Feeling the difficulty of this matter, she was not in a hurry, "I think we need to communicate more and talk slowly." ”
Chen Zier felt that this woman always looked confident, as if everything was under control, so she didn't want her to be too comfortable, "I guess I can't do it tonight, I have an appointment." ”
Ning Ya's face froze......
"And what about tomorrow night?" she continued to try.
"I have a class at school tomorrow night. ”
"Then the night after tomorrow, right?"
Chen Zier pondered, "The day after tomorrow...... It should be ok. ”
He can't overdo it, and he has to prepare for it with both hands whether to sell it or not, and he can't offend to death.
Ning Ya got a specific timetable, and then she was satisfied, "Then Mr. Chen should not answer my phone again, and I will see you the night after tomorrow." ”
Chen Zier nodded.
After saying that, she was ready to get out of the car.
"Wait, Miss Ning. Something suddenly occurred to him.
"Qian Xiaodong's equity value, did you pay in cash?"
Since ancient times, human beings have had two ways of trading, one is to exchange money for goods, and the other is to exchange things for goods.
In business, given the importance of cash flow, most less wealthy companies will be more inclined to barter.
For example, when Apple acquired Steve Jobs' NEXT company, Chen Zier forgot the specific acquisition amount, but in terms of payment methods, the CEO at that time strongly asked Jobs to accept a small part of the cash to allocate most of Apple's shares, which is famous: to tide over the difficulties with Apple.
In fact, to put it bluntly, they want your things, but they don't want to spend real money, and they are very willing to write you some future checks.
In addition, 'less rich companies' can also be a false proposition, and there are very few companies in the world that consider themselves 'rich'.
Money is always not enough to spend.
Including China.com, which is not yet profitable.
They did the same way they bought a Hong Kong company in the past, spending $3 million with a share swap to get a 51 percent stake in that company.
Isn't it just a matter of trying to save money?
Chen Zier can see the future, and he knows that the equity of China.com will definitely increase.
But no one else can see it.
So on the one hand, there is a certificate of equity of a company that you don't know if it will succeed in the future, and on the other hand, there is a real RMB, how do you choose?
Basically, no one wants to ask for equity, all in cash.
Ning Ya was very happy that Chen Zier would ask this question, because it showed that he should already be thinking about this deal in his heart, which was a big step forward from before.
But the payment method is also a key point, China.com's cash flow is more abundant than that of ordinary Internet companies, but after all, they are not profitable, no matter how much financing they have, they can't afford to acquire many companies, if they all spend cash, then no one can afford it.
A single Home Credit, more than 10 million dollars is definitely wanted, would they pay so much cash?
Its leaders would not be so stupid. They don't have the full support of big conglomerates, so it is estimated that tens of millions of dollars of investment should already be very good.
"Mr. Qian Xiaodong chose to sell his shares in Home Credit because of his urgent need for cash, and our company will pay him this amount within six months. Ning Ya's eyes never left Chen Zier's face when she answered this question, "But Mr. Chen must not be short of money, so we very much hope to have constructive cooperation with you in this regard." ”
Chen Zier grinned and said, "Thank you for your answer, let's talk about it later." ”
Ning Ya couldn't figure out what this smile meant, was it a casual smile, or was it a mockery that came from listening to an allusion to non-cash payments, or was it a good-natured smile that could accept the suggestion?
This young Mr. Chen's performance always does not meet her expectations, and he is really unpredictable.
Chen Zier started the car and drove away, he was very calm, but he was not calm at all in his heart, he really didn't want to sell it at all, just sit back and wait for the appreciation.
Can ...... now He had another idea.
Equity ...... of China.com No matter how good Home Credit performs, it is still not enough to see in the stock market compared to China.com.
This is an Internet company that will be on the NASDAQ this time next year, and it is a company that has reached a peak market capitalization of $5 billion......
It's just that Chen Zier sells it like this again, it's a little sorry for Xu Yan, and he, the founder, will lose control of the company.
But then again, it's okay to do business and abide by the contract, and if you talk about it, just talk about it.
So this thought only flashed in Chen Zier's mind.
A share exchange merger is also an option to consider.
After driving to Pudding's headquarters, he called Cai Zhaoxi to his office.
"Mr. Chen, I happened to be looking for you too. Cai Zhaoxi looked very busy, he held several materials, "It's good news, last month, the net profit of pudding exceeded one million." ”
Chen Zier listened to the shock of the tiger's body, I finally felt the power of a little convenience store's abundant cash flow.
