Chapter 213 $2.5 billion 1% stake
Charlie held back his anger, in the negotiations he had experienced, he had encountered a more difficult opponent than Xu Qing, and he couldn't let negative emotions take control of his brain.
"Mr. Xu, you should understand why all the big companies such as Microsoft, Apple, and Oracle have many shareholders, and none of the shares of a company belong to only one force. Charlie's mood had stabilized and he said calmly to Xu Qing.
Of course, Xu Qing knew why there were so many shareholders of those large companies, and the interests generated by those companies were too great to be completely monopolized by a certain force, and some interests had to be distributed to other forces.
For his company, Xu Qing has arranged that at least for now, he will not sell any shares in the company.
Xu Qing smiled and said: "Mr. Charlie, let's be honest with you, I don't refuse to sell shares of Future, but the price of IDG is too low for me to agree." ”
Charlie wanted to burst into foul language, and after saying so much, Xu Qing actually thought that the price was low, Charlie continued to hold back his anger and said:
"Mr. Xu, $170 million is IDG's professionally evaluated purchase price, which is even slightly higher than the value of Future, and we are very sincere. ”
"Well, for $2.5 billion for 1% of the shares, I'm willing to sell 25% of the shares. ”
The future company's market value will be at least hundreds of billions of dollars, taking into account the inflation factor, Xu Qing said that 2.5 billion US dollars 1% of the shares, if IDG is really willing to come up with this price, Xu Qing will really sell the shares of the future company.
Charlie was stunned, he had encountered many things where the lion opened his mouth, but he had never encountered something as ridiculous as Xu Qing!
At a price of $2.5 billion and 1%, Microsoft's shares are not so expensive, and they can buy several Microsofts, and IDG can't come up with so much money, and it's impossible to buy it.
"Mr. Xu, are you kidding!" Charlie couldn't hold back the anger in his heart and said angrily.
Xu Qing looked at Charlie's angry expression, and felt relieved in his heart, of course he knew that the price just now IDG would not be able to agree, and Charlie would think that he was humiliating IDG.
But Xu Qing still said it, in order to disgust IDG, they disgusted Xu Qing first, and of course Xu Qing had to fight back.
As for the consequences of offending IDG, Xu Qing is not worried, now he is not a soft persimmon to be pinched by others, and he needs to pay a price if he wants to engage him.
IDG is a venture capital company, and it is unlikely that it will directly deal with Xu Qing, but it is more likely to stand behind the scenes and unite with other forces to deal with Xu Qing.
"I'm not kidding, I'm willing to sell 25% as long as IDG promises $2.5 billion for 1% of the shares. Xu Qing repeated the words with a smile.
Charlie still doesn't know that Xu Qing is playing him, he is an idiot, looking at Xu Qing's attitude, it is impossible to talk about anything today, he has to tell the senior management of IDG as soon as possible.
Charlie didn't say anything cruel, and the negotiation team with IDG left the future company, and when he left, no one from the future company sent him.
Xu Qing and Brooke were still sitting in the conference room, Brooke looked at Xu Qing's expression, and said: "Boss, doing this will offend IDG, the consequences of offending them are very serious, and it will bring us a lot of trouble." ”
Xu Qing turned the pen in his hand, turned dozens of times in a row, the pen has not fallen off, whether it is in the past life or now, Xu Qing likes to turn the pen very much, can relax his mood.
Seeing Brooke's worried expression, Xu Qing showed a confident smile and said, "I know that doing this will offend IDG, and I also know how strong their strength is, but it doesn't matter, they want to retaliate, and we will follow." ”
Brooke didn't speak again, the Future Company was owned by Xu Qing alone, he could do whatever he wanted, and Brooke only needed to execute the order.
And he thinks that Xu Qing is not an idiot, and there must be a deep meaning in making such an act for no reason.
If Xu Qing knew what Brooke was thinking now, he would cry and laugh, how could he have any deep meaning, he just didn't like IDG.
"Next, IDG is likely to retaliate against the future company, they may not take direct action, and will join other forces to retaliate, such as AOL and KPCB who have conflicts with us.
You pay close attention to the movements of these companies, find anomalies and report them to me in a timely manner. Xu Qing instructed Brooke.
Brooke also knew that the next time would be a difficult time for Future, and he would do his best to keep an eye out for any anomalies.
After Brooke went out of the conference room, Xu Qing was still sitting in the conference room, he continued to turn the pen in his hand, thinking about things in his mind, but the pen was very smoothly rotating on Xu Qing's thumb.
Up to now, the big forces that Xu Qing has offended are Nintendo, KPCB, AOL, IDG.
Nintendo and Xu Qing, now the two sides are almost dead, and Nintendo is the most powerful and difficult of these 4 forces.
Xu Qing fought Sony, Microsoft, Sega and Nintendo for so many years in his previous life, and Nintendo still got very good, and its market value once surpassed Sony.
Nintendo relied on his classic games, and the chances of bankruptcy were slim.
KPCB and Xu Qing, more precisely, should be John, but John is the president of KPCB and has a huge influence on KPCB, and offending him is equivalent to offending half of KPCB.
Xu Qing and John had a feud over the acquisition of Netscape, and although the two sides competed normally to acquire Netscape, Xu Qing knew that John already hated him.
AOL and Xu Qing, AOL manipulated 59 influential future accounts behind the scenes to make trouble in the future community, and was solved by Xu Qing, and the business of the two sides overlapped, and the feud was not small.
IDG and Xu Qing, needless to say, Charlie told the top management of IDG about today's incident, and they have more than 99.9% probability of retaliating against Xu Qing.
After more than a year of rebirth, Xu Qing offended 4 major forces, is he too arrogant?
No, these forces are too arrogant, they think that Xu Qing is a piece of cake, they can eat it if they want, especially Nintendo, Xu Qing refused to transplant electronic pets to Nintendo's handheld, so they dared to ban Xu Qing.
In the future, he will encounter more powerful forces, and Xu Qing will inevitably have enmity with some big forces.
Because Xu Qing's big cake will get bigger and bigger, more and more attractive, and more and more people will want to eat it.
There are even some people who don't want his cake to become bigger and destroy it directly, and many businesses founded by Chinese people are destroyed in this way.
What can be done to avoid this fate?
Xu Qing sat in the conference room until 12 noon, stood up and tidied up his clothes, and left the conference room.
Back at the villa, Xu Qing saw the pets who greeted him, and his somewhat gloomy mood became cheerful again.
"Have you eaten?" Xu Qing touched the pets.
What responded to Xu Qing was a face of saliva, a tsundere look, and a "I want to see beautiful women".
Xu Qing touched the pets, entered the dining room for lunch, and still lay on the sofa in the living room watching TV in the afternoon.
The storm outside has begun to stir.
