In the face of Ma Shoufu's fierce offensive, the management of Charm Xiuxiu really did not have the strength to fight hard, even if they actively mediated in many ways, it was still useless.

Well, what they are facing is actually the joint will of the two richest men, which is not at all playable!

Play strength, play background, play connections, play fame, all of them can't be played!

……

Ma Yu has done a lot of preparation, and as a leader in the e-commerce industry, he has very high requirements for speed and efficiency. Therefore, while the negotiations with Dadong Group were still ongoing, Ali Baba had already secured another cooperation, obtaining a 4% stake in the current shareholding structure from an investment institution that participated in the C and C+ rounds of financing. And in terms of charm Xiuxiu, there is no power to fight back at all.

Yes, a lot of money was raised before, but the various preparations and financial packaging before the company went public cost a lot of money, and there are still many holes to fill, how can there be spare money?

If the company really has spare money, what kind of capital do you have, spend your own money to package it, and make a lot of money by going public.

……

Boss Ma's efficiency was also quickly reflected in the negotiations with Dadong Group.

According to the plan of Dadong Group, there will be at least three rounds of negotiations, the first round Feng Huan is responsible, the second round Wang Xinlan is responsible, and in the third round, Boss Mu personally came forward to finalize the final price.

But Boss Ma couldn't wait, the first round of negotiations only lasted three days, and he only determined the cooperation intention and framework, and he appeared in a hurry.

Wang Xinlan was helpless and could only appear to accompany him.

The core focus is on the transaction price, which is the money. Wang Xinlan proposed to refer to the current market value of Charm Xiuxiu with reference to the current number of registered users, the market value corresponding to previous rounds of financing, the market value of similar Internet companies and the estimated market value of Charm Xiuxiu after listing, and deduce the corresponding value of 20% of the shares.

Then, after a detailed deduction, Wang Xinlan gave the current market value of $3 billion, so that the value of 20% of the shares in the hands of Dadong Group reached $600 million.

It should be noted that when Dadong Group won 25% of the shares, it only invested a total of 40 million yuan plus 39 million US dollars, which is about 45 million US dollars based on the current exchange rate. After subtracting 5% of the non-dilutable shares, the acquisition cost of the current 20% of the shares should be $36 million.

In other words, according to Wang Xinlan's algorithm, the investment of 36 million US dollars became 600 million US dollars, and the value soared by 16.7 times!

Ma Yu felt that this Wang Xinlan was really ruthless, which was completely estimated according to the value of Charm Xiuxiu after its successful listing, and it was also calculated according to the rhythm of the premium of new shares.

However, Boss Ma believes that although Wang Xinlan's offer is very high, it is not outrageous. This price is still based on scientific analysis and is not divorced from reality.

Moreover, this price is within the range that Boss Ma can afford.

Therefore, Mr. Ma did not grind, and after listing various information of his own side, introducing his own data model and calculation methods, he made a decisive counteroffer, 500 million US dollars!

My God, Wang Xinlan was surprised!

If these shares can be sold for more than $400 million, they will wake up with laughter.

Before she could react, Ma Yu immediately added two conditions:

First, in the later affairs of the charm show, I hope to get the support of Dadong Group;

Second, if Dadong Group sells 5% of its non-dilutable shares in the later stage, it hopes to give priority to Alibaba;

Wang Xinlan said in his heart, you are really shrewd, spend money to buy an alliance.

Ma Yu's conditions were too significant, and Wang Xinlan had no choice but to suggest adjourning the meeting, and she went to ask Mu Dong instead.

Mu Dong smiled: "Both conditions can be agreed, but we will definitely not sell this 5% non-dilutable share." ”

Also, 5% is not much, but it is not dilutable. And once Ma Yu guided the charm Xiuxiu to achieve great development, the 5% of the shares became the chicken that laid golden eggs, how could it be possible?

……

In the afternoon, the negotiations continued, and after some reasonable and polite communication, the final price was determined at 520 million yuan, and the two sides signed a letter of intent.

In this way, it only took one day for Boss Ma to complete the negotiation efficiently.

……

The management and relevant shareholders of the negotiation were immediately informed of the situation, and within two days, everyone issued "no objection" written materials.

Two days later, on January 30, Dadong Group and Alibaba signed a formal equity transaction contract and began to enter the payment and equity confirmation process.

At this point, Alibaba holds 24% of the current shares, and has put on a posture to continue to expand the results, and the ambition to control the charm of Xiuxiu can be seen at a glance.

Coupled with the 5% non-dilutable shares controlled by Dadong Group, the two sides have joined forces, and the influence is already very terrifying.

Correspondingly, Cai Changsheng, the chairman who now holds the most shares, holds 38% of the shares, and Wu Zeyuan, the general manager, holds 15%, and the two of them add up to 53%.

However, if there is no financing, not only will the listing become a bubble, but the various expenses previously invested in the listing will also be wasted.

What a dilemma!

……

"What's next?" In a delicate Lu restaurant in Quancheng, Boss Mu asked with a smile.

Ma Yu said while dealing with the scallion roasted sea cucumber on the plate: "I plan to go and talk to Cai Changsheng and Wu Zeyuan face-to-face, if you want to develop, you will give up the management rights, if you want the management rights, then wait and see." ”

"Big brother, are you a naked threat?" Mu Dong and Ma Yu became more and more familiar, and they could make a few jokes.

"What if you don't threaten? The two of them are still in control of the situation, if we really have the intention of breaking the net, won't we all have to be embarrassed? So, I can't wait for him to threaten me, I'll just threaten him. Ma Yu said.

After a pause, he said: "Of course, I will pay attention to the ways and means, everyone is a decent person, everything can be discussed." ”

……

On the first day of February, Ma Yu went to Xiamen, and two days later, he sent news to Mu Dong, saying that Cai Changsheng and Wu Zeyuan had been dealt with.

Mu Dong was very surprised, and couldn't help but say more: "It's so powerful, how can you do it?"

"You'll soon learn that, as a shareholder, that's the least you need to know. Ma Yu said with a smile: "These two old men always started with domain names, and they actually have no resistance to selling the things in their hands." ”

Oh, I see.

Two days later, Mu Dong saw the letter of intent signed by Alibaba and Cai Changsheng and Wu Zeyuan, Cai Changsheng sold 10% of the shares held by himself, and Wu Zeyuan sold 4% of the shares held by himself, and the price of the two transactions added up to a total of 320 million US dollars.

This price, if refined to the current selling price for every 1% of the equity, is 12.1% lower than the price at which Dadong Group sold the equity.

Ma Yu later told Mu Dong: "I told those two people that if you jointly sell 20% of the shares, I will also refer to the price of Dadong Group, they are unwilling!"

……

Cai Changsheng and Wu Zeyuan were completely conquered by Ma Yu.

What conquered them was first of all the huge strength shown by Boss Ma, followed by the brand-new business model and bright future prospects depicted by Boss Ma, and finally the huge difference that would be finished if they did not cooperate.

Therefore, the two jointly sold 14% of the current shares, and promised Boss Ma that in the next few rounds of financing activities, they would focus on ensuring the shareholding ratio of Alibaba and hand over the control of Charming Xiuxiu.

The two of them figured it out, and after working hard, they may not have gained more benefits from retreating into the background, so it doesn't hurt to hand it over.

In the future, with a lot of money in hand, you can continue to invest in other areas, and the two still jointly hold the current 39% of the shares, even if they are diluted in the future, it will not be less than 25%, once the company is listed, and then under the leadership of Boss Ma, these shares will become golden, and the fame of the two will also be greatly boosted.

In other words, after seeing through the current affairs, the future is famous and favorable, which is still very good.

……

On February 6, Dadong Group held its annual meeting in Quancheng Central Building.

The meeting was led by Wang Xinlan, who personally presided over the meeting, commented on the operation of each company, and made a concluding speech.

The chairman Mu Dong only made a brief speech, expressing his satisfaction with the work and achievements of the management led by Wang Xinlan, and hoped that everyone would continue to work hard.

I'm really satisfied.

Under the group company, except for the Dadong Charitable Foundation, which is only responsible for spending money, and the high-cost Dadong General Aviation Company, all other economic entities have made profits, and even the fixed route business of Dadong Airlines has also realized a small profit under accounting standards.

Among them, we have to mention Dadong International School. According to national regulations, private education in the compulsory education stage is not allowed to make profits, that is, the primary and junior high school parts cannot be profitable.

But the kindergarten and high school parts are allowed to make profits, and the profits of these two parts are really not small.

Dadong National School is on the right track, and the school is in the process of applying for several international education accreditations. The ultimate plan is that future students who graduate from high school at Daito International School can directly use their internationally recognized diplomas to open the doors of world-renowned universities without taking various exams.

These certifications and new plans were carried out under Wang Xinlan's arrangement. Therefore, there is such a thing as an international perspective, which is really not something that can be just talked about or thought about. Let's put it this way, many of the newspapers and magazines that Wang Xinlan reads on weekdays are the original English editions delivered from abroad.

Far from it.

……

In terms of shareholding companies, Dadong Semiconductor has made steady progress, although it is still in a state of loss, but as long as the technology and production can be taken step by step, it is a matter of time before it becomes profitable;

Now Professor Zhan Yeming has begun to expand the international market and take the initiative to undertake the storage, computing and analysis of international data.

Professor Zhan is full of confidence and said that according to this development strategy, the domestic cloud data market will be driven by foreign markets, and if it is about a year, Dadong Cloud Data can start to stop losses and achieve profits.

Other joint-stock companies such as Beijing Future Technology, Shanghai Future Mobile Phone Design, and Dadong Shengtong Company are also operating smoothly and have stable profits.

In particular, Beijing Future Technology is still firmly in the first camp of the domestic mobile phone market, although the ranking has declined, but with the expansion of the market scale, the shipment has continued to rise, and the profit is naturally leveraged.

……

At the end of the meeting, it was a dinner as usual, and Mr. Mu and his wife Li Xiaoxiao attended in full costume.

The dinner party is naturally to drink, and Mr. Mu is still everyone's first choice for toasting. Boss Mu's alcohol consumption is very stable, it has always been about half a catty, and it has not increased with the growth of wealth, whenever he faces a large banquet, Boss Mu is a little stunned.

This year, Boss Mu played a clever trick and specially got a set of equipment that was hidden from the world.

The equipment was quietly provided by Guo Tiande, the upper end was a small funnel smaller than half a ping pong ball, hidden in the palm of the hand, and the lower end of the funnel was a hose, hidden in the sleeve, and the hose led all the way to a plastic bag hanging around his waist.

When cheating, drink the wine in your mouth and not swallow, pretend to cough or touch your face and chin or something, and spit it out.

The principle is very simple, but it is not easy to operate seamlessly, and the biggest problem is how to hold the funnel tightly so that the spit wine leaks out of the arm. It's like playing magic, a simple trick that requires a lot of practice.

Boss Mu also did the exercises, and he seems to be quite talented, and he practiced well. Guo Tiande spoke highly of this, believing that after years of training, the bones and muscles in the boss's body are not only strong, but also flexible, and he can easily master such a small magic trick.

Well, Boss Mu, who has cultivated his skills, killed all sides at the dinner, and "drank" more than a pound of liquor, but still did not appear foreign.

Moreover, in order to fully cover up the truth, Boss Mu did not spit out all the wine, but drank about two or three taels selectively, which made him look blushing and very confused.

Liu Wei had already drunk two glasses with Mu Dong alone, but she came over again to toast two more glasses.

Mu Dong was a little stunned, he was cheating, didn't Liu Wei find something tricky?

After a quick ponder, Boss Mu quietly let go of the small funnel in his palm, let it shrink into his sleeve, and drank two glasses with Liu Wei generously.

Liu Wei drank a little too much, her steps swayed, her face was intoxicated, and she happily announced: "Brother Mu, sister-in-law, Mr. Wang, colleagues, I, Liu Wei, am getting married, I finally married myself, and everyone is welcome to go to the capital to attend my wedding." ”

Everyone laughed and expressed congratulations and blessings, Liu Wei laughed, grabbed the wine bottle, and made a gesture to continue drinking with everyone, but the person suddenly fell softly.

Everyone panicked, several women hurriedly stepped forward to help them up, and after some checking, they found that the situation was not very good, and someone called the 120 emergency number.

The dinner ended in a strange way.
