Chapter 154: Baidu shares in hand

"I want to buy all the foreign shares of DFJ and Baidu!"

Xiao Bowen's words almost didn't choke Robin Li to death.

"Huh! Little brother, don't make such jokes, I've been very busy lately and really don't have time! ”

Robin Li looked at the young Xiao Bowen and really didn't have the confidence to believe what he said.

"I heard that DFJ and IDG injected a total of $10 million into your Baidu, right? Here is a cash check for 83 million RMB! Mr. Li, do you think they will sell their shares? ”

Xiao Bowen knows that Robin Li is now at the end of his rope, and without the support of shareholders, his Baidu search will not be possible.

"Alright! I'm sure I'll convince them! ”

Baidu's performance has been declining in the past year, and relying on technology to help others work is never the way out. Even Defengjie is not optimistic about Baidu, and has proposed to withdraw shares several times, but Robin Li has been pressing, and now he can really solve these foreigners!

To be honest, if there are people in China who support it, why should he Robin Li go back to foreign countries to find investment?

The most embarrassing thing is that foreigners in Silicon Valley still don't recognize Baidu's technology, and always feel that Google's technical team will be stronger!

This time, we must keep their stock price down and give them less money!

Recently, Defengjie's boss is also very dissatisfied with Baidu's performance, and he is really worried that his investment has gone down the drain. The most annoying thing is that Robin Li, the boss of Baidu, wants to engage in search like his own company?

Just kidding, with their three-legged cat technique, thin manpower, that's not hitting a stone with an egg. Gotta find a way to get out.

De Fengjie's boss sat in the boss's chair and pressed his temples with a slight headache.

Just as he was still pressing his head, the hand next to him suddenly rang out inopportunely. The boss of Defengjie saw that it was Robin Li, and casually said st!

"Hey Hong, what's the matter at this late hour?"

"How's it going?"

"Oh, that's terrible! Recently, something has gone wrong with the company's funds! ”

"It's a pity, the company's recent situation is not very ideal!"

"Hong, then, can you spend some of the funds for me to turn around first?"

"That's it! Jie, I heard that a friend wants to buy your shares, but he also thinks the price is a bit high, and he can't contribute the full amount! ”

After listening to De Fengjie, Robin Li was talking to him, and hurriedly said Xiao Bowen!

"That's it! So how much is he prepared to contribute? You can't let me lose too much, we're old friends! ”

"Jie, he means that you will be offered a low price, and if you feel that you can accept it, you will buy it in cash, and you will never be in arrears!"

"Cash acquisition, alright! That's at least $7 million, and we invested $8.6 million in the beginning! ”

De Fengjie said with a little pain, he lost $1.6 million at once, and he didn't know how long it would take to earn it back.

"Okay Jie, let me tell him, you wait for my good news!"

Baidu has also made some profits in recent years, and Robin Li thought that he would have to deduct some more money. After hanging up the phone, Robin Li hurriedly contacted Xiao Bowen.

"Hello Mr. Xiao, how do you feel that Defengjie's boss agreed to buy all of his shares for $7 million?"

"Of course you can, but I think if you can talk less, I will add the extra money to Baidu!"

"Okay, I see, you just wait for the good news!"

Robin Li hung up the phone and was very happy, he did not rush to reply to De Fengjie, but made another call to the person in charge of IDG, and the content was similar.

IDG didn't invest much, and finally agreed to sell its 4.2% stake in Baidu for $1 million.

Some time ago, they sold Tencent's shares, and they just made a lot of money, and they didn't care about this little money.

If the bosses of IDG know the value of Tencent and Baidu after listing in the future, they estimate that their intestines will regret it!

The next day, Robin Li hadn't contacted Defengjie's boss, and he couldn't wait to call.

"Macro, how did you talk about that thing we talked about yesterday?"

"This, it's a bit hard to say, he feels that the price is still a bit high, he is willing to contribute 5 million US dollars, and pay the full amount directly after the contract is signed!"

"Oh my God! Is he going to rob? $5 million is too little for me to accept! ”

"And how much do you think is appropriate?"

"At least six million dollars, or I won't sell it!"

De Fengjie's tone of voice was a little angry.

"Alright! I'll talk to him again! ”

In this way, after several rounds of bargaining, Xiao Bowen finally spent $5.6 million to acquire 25.8% of DFJ's Baidu shares, and IDG used $1 million to acquire 4.2% of IDG's Baidu shares.

The original $10 million shares now only cost $6.6 million, and Xiao Bowen also lamented that time is really a good thing, which can prove everything, and these shares of Xiao Bowen will be a huge asset in the future.

Xiao Bowen was very trustworthy and paid a total of $10 million to acquire a 30% stake in Baidu.

At this time, Robin Li was a little embarrassed, and finally discussed with other shareholders and gave Xiao Bowen an extra 5% of the shares. In this way, Xiao Bowen owns 35% of Baidu's shares.

His own liquidity is also less than 83 million yuan, and only more than 60 million yuan remains.

Xiao Bowen knows that there are still several big acquisitions waiting for him, and Baidu, Tencent, and Alibaba will also need a lot of capital investment in the next two or three years, and they will not get cash flow and profits from these three companies for the time being.

Since the Internet is a new industry and very risky, the banks also refused to lend to the three companies.

Xiao Bowen finally understood why Ma Yun launched Alipay, this is no way, Ma Yun gave full play to the old method of demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall.

Fortunately, I still have entities such as hot pot restaurants and KTV real estate, and if I really don't have money, I can borrow at least more than 200 million.

After signing the contract for the transfer of equity with Defengjie and IDG again, Xiao Bowen said goodbye to Robin Li and started his entertainment career, and he was too tired in the past half a month.

There is no need for Xiao Bowen to worry too much about the new album, anyway, the ten songs of the new album are all familiar to him in his previous life. As long as his brother's band plays the tune well, he can sing it well!

Thinking that the record sales of a single in "Once Upon a Time" exceeded 5 million copies before, this new album is full of songs that were sold in the previous life, and any one of them is a golden song that has won the championship. That sales should be better!

When Baidu, Tencent, and Ali can be promoted, then the future income is unlimited!

It's not far from the goal of counting the money to hand cramps.,It seems that I have to talk to Mr. Daozai about the release of the new album.。 (To be continued.) )
