Chapter 295: Move the "Baidu" aunt
It's a pity that the Internet is a place with a high investment scale, even if hao123 has been favored by users, but he has not made much money in the past two years, or rather, "Li Xingping" at that time did not think of venture capital. Therefore, hao123 has always been a comfortable status quo and has not been expanded greatly.
In fact, with such a resource advantage, it is completely possible to develop in an all-round way. Whether it's a community or a forum, or instant messaging, or online games, everything can be developed with hao123. It's a little late, though. This made Baidu, which was developing at full speed at that time, breathe a sigh of relief, and even the advertising expenses for cooperation with hao123 were also given a lot more generously.
"10 million?"
Li Xingping didn't show any expression, but the more this happened, the more Zhang Zixian knew how powerful Li Xingping was.
"Our hao123 advertising revenue is only a hundred thousand a month, and it is at most a million a year. The Tang Dynasty company smashed in 10 million at once, and it seems that we sold it for a high price......"
This should have been said by Zhang Zixian, but it didn't sound, Li Xingping opened his mouth and said.
"Haha, Mr. Li is so good at calculating, it seems that there is no problem with our cooperation this time."
Although Zhang Zixian knew that it would not be so easy, he pretended not to hear Li Xingping's words.
"Oh, so it seems that Tang Dynasty Company thinks that hao123 is worth the price?"
For 10 million, Li Xingping is not satisfied. However, he didn't say anything, but asked rhetorically.
In this way, Mr. Li seems to be dissatisfied. In this way, Mr. Li doesn't like to say a price, but we can discuss it carefully. ”
Zhang Zixian has negotiated in the business world, and he is very experienced in such negotiations. Although this Li Xingping seems to be much more stable, he has been operating a small business after all. Even the entire staff of hao123 is only three or four people. No matter how capable Li Xingping is, he cannot be like a professional manager in a large company.
It may seem like a bit of a bully, but it can't be helped.
This is the case in the business world, you can't always see people pitiful, so you deliberately give more money to others.
"This ......"
Faced with Zhang Zixian deliberately turning the topic back again, Li Xingping was a little depressed. secretly said in his heart, it seems that he is still much worse than Zhang Zixian, the professional managers of these Tang Dynasty companies. Take, for example, this negotiation. After a few words from the other party, they can bī have nothing to say. When the time comes, the conversation will start, and I will definitely fall into a passive state.
However, although Li Xingping does not have the negotiation means of a large upper-level company, he has been smart since he was a child, but he knows some bargaining skills. So, he spoke directly and said, "I think, 100 million is a good price." ”
Of course, this price was said casually by Li Xingping.
Didn't you tell me that he still knows this kind of ability to open his mouth and sell the sky. Moreover, I did this kind of thing when I was young. One spit out 100 million, Li Xingping was at ease. What if I bargain with you slowly, anyway, it's all set at 100 million, see how much you still cut?
"Haha, 100 million, Mr. Li is really joking."
Zhang Zixian laughed, he didn't think that this hao123 was not worth 100 million.
To be honest, with the potential of hao123, not to mention 100 million, even 1 billion in the future is worth it. However, now hao123 does not reflect his value. Of course, it's about the leader. The leader did not make good use of hao123, so the value he showed was naturally just an advertisement for others. Other than that, there is basically no other business.
However, after laughing, Zhang Zixian has to deal with this kind of thing. He has seen a lot of ways like this to ask for a sky-high price and wait for the money to be repaid. Moreover, he knows how to crack it even more.
"Where, where."
Seeing Zhang Zixian's laughter, Li Xingping did not look nervous, but said directly, "After the Tang Dynasty Company acquires hao123, it can unify the domestic Mén households, and it can also take the opportunity to develop other businesses." The price of 100 million, I think it is very reasonable. ”
"Huh?"
Zhang Zixian was strange, this Li Xingping actually saw the value of his hao123. It's just that I actually saw it, why do I still cling to this advertising fee. Moreover, I didn't even go to attract venture capital, and there has not been much development until now. This made Zhang Zixian feel strange, but after thinking about it, he also understood.
Perhaps, on the one hand, I didn't see the value of hao123 before, and on the other hand, maybe hao123 didn't consider investing in other businesses at that time. Probably recently figured it out, but they no longer have a chance, and the Tang Dynasty Company has come to acquire it. In the face of the menacing Tang Dynasty company, hao123 does not seem to have any resistance to the point. If the Tang Dynasty Company is rejected, then the Tang Dynasty Company will nòng a website similar to hao123. At that time, if hao123 wants to survive, it can only find venture capital or be directly acquired by other companies as it is now.
Anyway, it will be merged, and this Tang Dynasty company can give the right price, but it can also be. Thinking of this, Li Xingping sighed, "Alas, my thinking is one step slower, and I can only be passive everywhere." "It's just that there is no way to do it, and now I can only give hao123 more benefits, Li Xingping has such an idea.
"It's just that we found that most people have started to use Baidu now."
At this time, Zhang Zixian began to speak.
When netizens gradually matured, they became old birds of the Internet. For a site like hao123, they definitely won't use it again. Now users are most familiar with Baidu. This is a very unfavorable situation for hao123. Because, Baidu can cultivate users, but hao123 cannot.
This is the shortcoming of hao123, and Zhang Zixian just caught it.
Moreover, Mr. Li does not seem to know the value of 100 million yuan. Let me tell you about the price of 100 million yuan.
After speaking, Zhang Zixian saw a big whiteboard on the side, so Zhang Zixian picked up a black pen and wrote on the whiteboard and said, "At a price of 100 million yuan in the domestic Internet market, you can buy 10 smaller online game companies at the same time, you can open several 5 MOP websites in a row, and you can even create 3 professional e-commerce platforms......"
10 online game companies, 5 MOP websites, 3 e-commerce platforms.
In an instant, Zhang Zixian wrote down the value represented by 100 million yuan in detail. The implication is that compared with hao123 and these, it seems that even they are inferior, what qualifications does hao123 have to open 100 million?
"80 million."
Hearing Zhang Zixian talk about the value of 100 million yuan, compared with the two, hao123 seems to be nothing. Unnaturally, Li Xingping was actually under the strong oppression of Zhang Zixian, and automatically conceded 20 million.
"80 million RMB, completely creating a dream Journey to the West ......"
"60 million."
"60 million yuan, and you can develop Tang Dynasty audio-visual software."
"40 million."
"40 million yuan, you can start two."
In this way, under the strong pressure of Zhang Zixian, the price was reduced all the way.
Until the end, Li Xingping spit out "20 million." ”
"20 million ......"
Zhang Zixian was about to continue, when he suddenly smiled, the price was too bāng, and said, "Happy cooperation." ”
So far, Tang Dynasty Company has quickly acquired HAO123 at a lightning speed. However, for the time being, this news has not been announced to the public. It wasn't until Tang Dynasty Company signed a contract with Li Xingping that Li Xingping realized that he had been fooled.
It turns out that Zhang Zixian said before that how many games can be developed for 100 million yuan. This is all shown on the powerful platform of the Tang Dynasty company, and his powerful technology. Although their huā fee is not much, their skills are invaluable. If you add the technical price, why not 100 million?
Moreover, although a large number of users cultivated by hao123 have been transferred to Baidu's banner. However, there are so many ** people in China, especially for some middle-aged netizens, the users of hao123 will only continue to increase, and will not decrease at all. However, being oppressed by Zhang Zixian just now, Li Xingping forgot the advantages of his hao123 in his heart.
It's useless to regret it, hao123 has already signed a contract with Tang Dynasty Company.
No wonder Tang Dynasty Company is so powerful, not only they have such powerful computer technology and vision, but also a group of professional professional managers. Looking at himself, Li Xingping felt even more inadequate. However, Li Xingping is a strong person in the end. He was able to open up hao123 with a beginner Chinese knowledge, which shows his cleverness. In the future, I can only work harder.
"Mr. Chen, hao123 has been included in Tang Dynasty Company."
After signing the contract with hao123 on the same day, Zhang Zixian told Chen Jiayi the news. Moreover, he also had an idea and wanted to discuss it with Chen Jiayi. If he could, he would like to go one step further with hao123.
"Well, how much did Huā cost?"
The acquisition of hao123 is already logical, but fortunately, Tang Dynasty Company started quickly. Otherwise, after Baidu develops, I am afraid that it will have to go back and acquire hao123. This is, under the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly. hao123 is Baidu's most powerful competitor, as long as hao123 is done, then, with Baidu's Chinese search engine, it can definitely dominate the Internet search world. As a result, it occupies an important role in China's Internet.
Yes, now Google in the United States has shown super business capabilities all over the world. Although today's Baidu is not as good as Google, the Chinese market is so big, and it is enough to have this market. At least, for Robin Li now, he wants to do a good job of searching. As for whether it will rely on search in the future and develop other markets, it will be discussed in the future. ,
"20 million."
Speaking of 20 million, Zhang Zixian was a little embarrassed.
Such negotiations, for him, are simply bullying. Almost, he couldn't bear to do it. However, later Zhang Zixian seemed to feel uncomfortable, and still let Li Xingping serve as the president of hao123, of course, this president is only a nominal one, because, with Li Xingping's current professional vision, it is not enough to lead a mature Internet website. It's not that I look down on people, it's all for the sake of the company.
This is the first stop to welcome domestic novice netizens, and if you don't make good use of it, it will be in vain.
"Pretty."
The acquisition of hao123 at a price of 20 million yuan, which is placed anywhere, is also a classic acquisition case. Not to mention looking back in a few years, even now, hao123 is not only 20 million, but can definitely reach 100 million. Of course, if it is 100 million, it is impossible for Tang Dynasty Company to acquire him, how good it is to develop one by yourself.
Of course, in fact, some people will also say, why bother with 20 million, the current Tang Dynasty company can be developed. However, after several years of development, hao123 has cultivated a group of users. Moreover, if the Tang Dynasty company develops another hao123 site like xìng. Well, this will definitely get the attention of others. When the time comes, other media outlets will definitely acquire hao123.
For example, Xin/làng, NetEase, Sohu, Baidu...... They are fully capable of acquiring hao123.
Especially Baidu, if Baidu acquires hao123, Tang Dynasty will not have any chance. When the time comes, Baidu wants to be the enemy of the Tang Dynasty Company, and Chen Jiayi may have no way to deal with him. Because, the importance of a search engine, Chen Jiayi is too clear. In order to seize the opportunity, the Tang Dynasty Company had to be acquired.
Hearing that Hao123 was acquired for 20 million, Chen Jiayi praised Zhang Zixian from time to time on the phone. Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy. Zhang Zixian looked silent and unsharp. However, looking at it now, it seems that Zhang Zixian has begun to take on Chen Jiayi's style. Everything oppresses others, and others have to obey.
"I think we can also use hao123 to get in touch with Baidu."
At that time, when studying hao123, Zhang Zixian came up with this idea. However, Zhang Zixian did not say it at that time, and only waited for the acquisition of hao123 to be completed. Now that the acquisition is underway, Zhang Zixian wants to use the power of hao123 to shake the domestic search giants.
"Oh, what do you want to do?"
Good boy, Chen Jiayi was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Zixian even wanted to move the "Baidu Aunt". Of course, Chen Jiayi also thinks so. Otherwise, what is Chen Jiayi going to do to acquire hao123, it is nothing more than to control the domestic Internet. And to control the domestic Internet, there is a giant among them, Baidu, which is the stone that Chen Jiayi has to face.
Later, there were many search engines in China, such as Tencent's SOSO, China Search, Yahoo, Sogou, and the international Google. However, in the field of domestic Chinese search, they still have not brought Baidu down.
On the contrary, Du Niang became stronger and stronger in many jiāo fronts, and became the overlord of the domestic search field.
One of the key points is that Baidu has formed a fire at that time, and he already has a group of loyal users. Of course, the strength of his search engine is also a very important reason. However, it is only 2003, and if there is no hao123, it has been delayed to introduce users to Baidu. No matter how strong the search engine is, it will fail
