Chapter 35 Funding Gap

(It's just two chapters today, sorry!xiexie support)

Ma Huateng's arrival made Lin Feng feel stunned, especially Ma Huateng's serious face, which made Lin Feng even more dazed. Teng X network is now developing vigorously, with more than 100 million registered users and more than 100,000 members.

And Liu Yingying, including others, saw Ma Huateng, the giant who created the myth of China's instant messaging, appear in their own company, and their faces were shocked and excited, no less than the excitement of star-chasers seeing stars.

"Ma Dong, talk inside. Lin Feng knew that Ma Huateng must have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, so he ordered someone to pour two cups of coffee and sit alone in the office with Ma Huateng.

Ma Huateng gently sipped the coffee, with a thoughtful face, and after a long time, he sighed softly.

"Mr. Lin, first of all, congratulations, you have become the first fast food restaurant among netizens in the poll of your fast food restaurant. Ma Huateng congratulated Lin Feng and said.

"Hehe, this all depends on Ma Dong's care, without Ma Dong's strong promotion on the homepage of Teng X.com, my fast food restaurant is not so famous so quickly. Lin Feng said modestly.

"Mutually beneficial, several times your news has brought huge hits to Tengx.com. Ma Huateng smiled slightly.

After finishing speaking, the two of them did not speak for a long time.

"Mr. Lin, with the relationship between our two companies, I will not be polite. After brewing for a long time, Ma Huateng said the purpose of the trip, "Now Teng X has some trouble in funds, and I desperately need financing, I want to sell 5% of the original shares of Teng X to Mr. Lin at a price of 50 million yuan." I don't know what Mr. Lin thinks. ”

When Lin Feng heard this, his heart was pounding. 50 million yuan to acquire 5% of Teng X.com shares, absolutely cost-effective. In a maximum of 3 years, Teng X.com will definitely be listed in Hong Kong, and the 5% stake will be worth more than 3 billion at the peak of the stock price, which is definitely a cost-effective investment.

But Lin Feng smiled bitterly at the moment. There is no other reason, there is no money in hand. The day before, Lin Feng looked at the more than 1.3 million liquidity in the account, and felt that he was very rich, but at this moment he realized that he was really poor. He couldn't catch such a business that was delivered to his door, and Lin Feng had the urge to smoke himself.

Ma Huateng saw that Lin Feng's expression was wrong, and his face also changed.

"Mr. Lin, don't you even have 50 million funds in your hands?" Ma Huateng is not just talking nonsense, he did an investigation before coming. Lin Feng's fast food restaurant is now in the limelight, and the merchants who want to join far more than the merchants who apply to join McDonald's or Kentucky Chicken, and this franchise alone can acquire Ma Huateng's 5% stake.

Ma Huateng knows that the McDonald's franchise fee is 2.5 million yuan, and with the popularity and popularity of today's fast food restaurants, the franchise fee of 500,000 yuan is not too much. According to Ma Huateng, there are at least 100 businesses that have applied to join in the near future.

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly, and briefly told Ma Huateng about his franchise contract, after listening, Ma Huateng didn't know whether to admire Lin Feng's morality, or to ridicule Lin Feng's pedantry.

Businessmen pursue profits and give up such a large piece of market cake just in exchange for a reputation, Ma Huateng doesn't know whether this is right or wrong. However, in Ma Huateng's heart, since McDonald's and KFC can operate for so many years, the frying oil incident should not be a problem.

"Alas~~~" Ma Huateng, who came with hope, was disappointed when he learned that this financing failed.

"What, Ma Dong, has there been such a shortage of funds recently?" Lin Feng asked with concern.

"It's not that your jingle network is growing too fast. Ma Huateng glared at Lin Feng, who "doesn't have a backache when standing and talking". Recently, the reason for the shortage of funds in Teng X, in addition to undertaking the server unit of Dingdang network, the most important thing is that Teng Xnet has developed too rapidly, especially after the launch of members, QQ farm, Tencent portal network and other series of services, the server unit is greatly tight, and many outstanding talents are hired, which is the real reason for the shortage of funds.

"Can't you find other financiers?" Lin Feng did not believe that with the current development momentum of Yiteng X.com, no investors would see its prospects.

Ma Huateng shook his head and said hatefully, "Many investors have seen that we have a problem with funds and have kept the price very low, how can I agree." This is simply an insult to Teng X.com. ”

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly, the mall is like this, who told you that the problem of shortage of funds is known to others, and it is strange that people do not take the opportunity to reduce prices at this time.

"There is also a consortium that is willing to buy it at a high price, but I am not willing to sell him the company's shares. Ma Huateng said suddenly.

"Weishenme, which consortium?" Lin Feng was stunned.

"The domestic IMH consortium is active in the entire Southeast Asian market. Bid $12 million for 10% of my shares and $5 million for 5% of my shares. Ma Huateng said.

Lin Feng calculated, the price is still more appropriate, but if 10% of the shares are acquired, according to the existing equity structure of Teng X.com, Ma Huateng and the creative team only own 45% of the shares, which is by no means a haode signal for the company.

"Hmph, the IMH consortium thinks I don't see their wolf ambitions, acquired 20% of the shares of Hong Kong Pacific Century Digital, and is negotiating with IDG to acquire jihua, this time they also want to buy 10% of my shares, and they clearly want to swallow Teng X.com, hmph, am I so stupid!" Ma Huateng said disdainfully.

Lin Feng was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect that there was already a consortium that had hit the idea of Teng X, and it was an acquisition, obviously this IMH consortium had a great appetite, and it was also extremely optimistic about the prospects of Teng X.

"By the way, Mr. Lin, is there a company that will negotiate with you to acquire 5% of your Teng X network shares?" Ma Huateng stared at Lin Feng tightly with his eyes and asked nervously.

Lin Feng shook his head, which made Ma Huateng's heart feel relieved. However, Ma Huateng didn't know that in fact, IMH had already made a move, but it was destroyed by Xia Qianhe's self-esteem. Xia Qianhe wanted to drive Lin Feng to a dead end, and then appear as a savior to buy it. However, even if Xia Qianhe identified himself at the beginning, Lin Feng would not sell 5% of the shares in Tengx.com, and Lin Feng knew the value of the 5% shares very well.

"Mr. Lin, I have a request, before Teng X online is listed, if you want to sell 5% of the shares in Teng X due to other issues, can you give me the first priority, I will buy it at a reasonable market price. Ma Huateng took out a contract, which is the second purpose of his visit today: to ensure that Lin Feng's 5% stake in hand is not acquired by others. Although Ma Huateng now has no funds in his hands to acquire Lin Feng's shares, Ma Huateng can't tolerate the Teng X network he worked so hard to establish being swallowed up.

If Lin Feng really wants to sell the shares by then, Ma Huateng will also buy it when he smashes the pot and sells iron. Of course, Ma Huateng didn't believe that Lin Feng was short of funds now. Lin Feng's industry is different from Ma Huateng's network company, Lin Feng is a business and can provide profits every month, unlike Ma Huateng, who was absolutely short of funds before the company went public.

Lin Feng looked at it and signed happily. He doesn't plan to sell the 5% stake now, so why not sell Ma Huateng now. For people who have reached Ma Huateng's status, this favor is definitely not light, and when Lin Feng has something to ask for in the future, Ma Huateng will not shirk it so much.

"Hehe, thank you Mr. Lin. However, I hope that Mr. Lin will not sell this 5% stake, I believe that it will definitely bring a good return to Mr. Lin. Seeing Lin Feng signing, Ma Huateng breathed a long sigh of relief, although the primary task of this trip to Chu City was not completed, but it was a big hidden danger to ensure that the 5% shares were not acquired by IMH.

"Hehe, rest assured, I am extremely optimistic about the market prospects of Teng X.com. However, I also hope that Mr. Ma will not sell his 5% stake in Dingdang.com, and I believe that its future value will also surprise Mr. Ma. Lin Feng said with a smile.

Ma Huateng's heart skipped a beat after hearing this. To be honest, in order to raise funds recently, he did have the idea of selling 5% of Dingdang's shares. With the current popularity and development potential of Dingdang.com, although this 5% stake cannot be compared with the 5% stake of Tencent.com, it is worth about 5 million yuan. Although it is not much, it is enough to alleviate Tencent's current financial problems.

At present, Lin Feng has not raised any funds, should I sell the 5% of the shares of Dingdang.com? -- Ma Huateng was full of thoughts at the moment. He is also extremely optimistic about the potential and future prospects of Dingdang, and the 5% of Dingdang's shares in his hand will definitely be valuable in the future. But after all, Teng X Network was founded by himself, if there is really no way, Ma Huateng can only sell 5% of Dingdang shares to temporarily alleviate the company's financial situation.
