Chapter 177: Weighing the Pros and Cons

There are always some people who feel that their actions are the most correct, and other people who do not follow their own intentions are all uncooperative, James feels that he is already very sincere, but he has never bowed his head to the people of the Celestial Empire, and now his performance is already very worthy of Jiang Hui.

However, in Jiang Hui's view, James's proposal of "willing to add one million to Google's bid to acquire Hao123" is actually Yahoo's inquiry into Google's offer, not to show Yahoo's sincerity in acquiring Hao123. Jiang Hui had already analyzed that Yahoo would not be willing to spend a lot of money to acquire Hao123, and naturally he didn't want to have too much useless to talk to James. It's just that in order to pull Yahoo and Google to scare Du Niang, I am willing to come out and talk.

"Mr. James, so far I haven't seen Yahoo's sincerity, I hope that Mr. James and the headquarters confirm the intention and budget to acquire Hao123 before we talk, there is no point in talking now," Jiang Hui said.

"Mr. Jiang, our Yahoo company is the world's largest Internet company, and you can get a lot of unexpected support from cooperating with our company, and it is also a great benefit for other companies such as your school intranet, which Google and Du Niang do not have, and I hope you can carefully consider Yahoo's acquisition aspirations," James said.

Now Yahoo is the Internet company with the highest market capitalization, but it will be dried down soon, and it will be the world of Microsoft, Google, Facebook, etc., and in more than ten years, Yahoo will not even rank among the top ten, top 20, or even top 30 Internet companies in terms of market value.

"I'll take Mr. James' words into account, so that's all for today," Jiang Hui said.

After Jiang Hui finished speaking, he got up and left the tea room, leaving the depressed James and his party in a daze. originally thought it was a very simple job, but now I found that it was a hard bone, and James's mood was like a dog.

James's last words were originally intended to threaten Jiang Hui that if Korn Glory did not cooperate with Yahoo, Yahoo would not only cooperate with the promotion of the school intranet, but also use its own advantages to deliberately smear companies such as the school intranet. But before James could say the scaremongering words directly, Jiang Hui stopped playing with him, and the punch hit the air, so he could only go back and slowly become depressed.

While Jiang Hui and Yahu were negotiating, Du Niang was also reviewing the acquisition of Hao123.

Du Niang headquarters, Boss Li's office.

"Dong Li, the news we bought from the waiter in the tea room shows that Google's offer has reached 80 million, but Mr. Jiang doesn't seem to be interested in this price at all, he seems to have taken a fancy to Google's shares," said Mr. Liu, who participated in the negotiations.

"According to the stock price of Wall Street investment banks, Google's current market value is at least more than 10 billion US dollars, or even 30 or 40 billion US dollars, and the shares of one point are at least 100 million US dollars.

"No way, now Google, Yahoo and we are all led by the nose of Guanghui Technology, Hao123 has too much influence among netizens in the Celestial Empire, according to incomplete surveys, more than 90% of the homepage of Internet cafes are Hao123, and the computer penetration rate is not very high now, the impact of Internet cafes on netizens is very powerful, and everyone is used to Hao123 in the future, so the influence of this website on the search engine is greater", Mr. Liu said.

"In order to optimize the shareholder structure and go public as soon as possible, our company is now discussing financing with other investment institutions, and the valuation given by others to Du Niang is less than 2 billion, which is difficult for him to have a navigation website, no technical content, and do you want to sell Du Niang at the same price, even if Google is not bad for money, it will not agree, right?", Boss Li said.

"Google will definitely not agree to give a little bit of shares to Wy Tech, not even a little bit of shares, but I estimate that when Google bids again, although it will not mention the matter of shares, the cash acquisition amount should be far more than 80 million," said Mr. Liu.

"Why do you think that? How much do you think Google will offer?", said Boss Li.

"Yahoo with Hao123, the market share in the Celestial Empire has risen rapidly, and now is the time when the contradiction between Google and Yahoo is the most acute, and Google is not short of money, spending money to buy a website that can quickly increase Google's market share in the Celestial Empire, and the people at Google headquarters should be happy to approve. I estimate that the acquisition amount will reach more than 150 million, or even 200 million, which is not surprising," said Mr. Liu.

"If it really goes to 200 million yuan, we can't come up with so much money, but Hao123 must not fall into the hands of Yahoo and Google, what do you think of Yahoo?", Boss Li said.

"I don't think Yahoo is afraid, he is now going downhill, and the business is shrinking all over the world, and it is impossible for Yahoo headquarters to approve the acquisition of an ordinary Tianchao navigation website with no technical content, even if the market share of this website is the first," said Mr. Liu.

"How do you think we can win Hao123, this navigation website has too much impact on our company's traffic, and we can't afford to lose it," said Boss Li.

"Judging from my contact with Mr. Jiang, he intends to sell Hao123 to our company, but he doesn't seem to have much interest in cash acquisition, and prefers the form of cash and share acquisition, if we can start from this aspect, it is still very likely to win Hao123," Mr. Liu said.

"Is it cash plus shares? If it is calculated according to Google's bid of 150 million, we have to take out 50 million and about 100 million shares to be sure to win Hao123. But according to the current valuation of Du Niang, the shares of 100 million yuan are basically close to seven or eight points, and this ratio may be difficult to convince various shareholders," said Boss Li.

"Li Dong, we don't necessarily need seven or eight points, more than a billion is our valuation for investors who have special resources and can promote our financing on the NASDAQ, if it is replaced with Hao123, we must calculate a certain premium, I think five points or so of shares should be enough", Mr. Liu said.

"Okay, then we will acquire Hao123 with 50 million cash and five points of shares as the goal, I will communicate with the shareholders immediately, and you will try to negotiate with Guanghui Technology, and the less you can win, the better," said Boss Li.

"Okay, as soon as I get the company's authorization, I will immediately start a new round of negotiations with Guanghui Technology, and I will definitely win Hao123 for the company," Mr. Liu said.
