Liu Jiping hesitated for a moment, and finally called Li Yanhong, and after explaining the situation, he handed the phone to Zhang Chen. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Zhang Chen took the phone, stood up and walked to the back room, and said as he walked: "Hello Mr. Li, I'm very happy to talk to you again." ”

"Mr. Li is really a noble person, two years ago, you took the initiative to find me, and bought the baidu domain name in my hand, remember?"

"Haha, yes, it's me, thanks to your help, I was able to scrape together enough money to buy the domain name 365, and I really have to thank you."

"Thanks to thanks, but the 365 website ......"

Zhang Chen closed the door casually, and the people outside couldn't hear what he was saying.

After a full fifteen minutes, the door opened again, Zhang Chen walked out of it, and then handed the phone back to Liu Jiping, signaling him to continue answering the phone.

Liu Jiping glanced at Zhang Chen, then took the phone and put it in his ear, Li Yanhong seemed to be explaining something to him, only to see his expression first surprised, and then from surprise to doubt, and finally showed a trace of confusion.

After a long time, Liu Jiping said, "Okay, I know", and then hung up the phone.

Now the most curious people are Duan Zhaoxiang and Jiao Kai, because they don't know the situation at all, and they don't know what Li Yanhong said to Liu Jiping, so that his expression can have such a rich change.

Liu Jiping put down the phone, at this moment he already knew that Zhang Chen was the real protagonist of this negotiation, he first sighed, and then said: "Mr. Li has already told me that he intends to acquire 365 websites at a price of 15 million yuan and 50,000 original shares of Baidu, if there is no problem, the contract will be sent in the afternoon." ”

"No problem, then I wish us a happy cooperation!" Zhang Chen stretched out his right hand to Liu Jiping.

Liu Jiping first glanced at Zhang Chen's outstretched right hand, and then said helplessly, "You can make me miserable", and then shook Zhang Chen's hand together.

Baidu finally completed the acquisition of the 365 website, what Zhang Chen said to Li Yanhong on the phone, no one knows, and later Duan Zhaoxiang and Jiao Kai also asked, but Zhang Chen just said that he and Li Yanhong reminisced, and by the way, he analyzed the pros and cons, but did not tell them the specific content of the conversation, so this has also become a mysterious mystery.

……

According to what was said before, Jiao Kai received nearly 4 million yuan and 15,000 original shares of Baidu after tax, not counting stocks, he has become a millionaire, and after Baidu is listed, with these stocks in his hands, he can easily step into the ranks of multimillionaires.

In fact, Zhang Chen is not very clear about how much Baidu's shares can be worth in the future, but he vaguely remembers seeing a piece of news in his previous life that "Baidu's listing created several billionaires", so he specially told Jiao Kai to keep Baidu's original shares in his hands and never transfer them.

Duan Zhaoxiang also received a remuneration of 500,000 yuan for this negotiation, but when Zhang Chen planned to transfer money to him, he asked Zhang Chen to wait, and put forward a decision that surprised Zhang Chen, that is, he wanted to invest in Journey Technology, and at the same time hoped to work for Zhang Chen.

This decision was not something that Duan Zhaoxiang came up with for a moment of brain fever, he had this idea on the first day of negotiation with Liu Jiping, and then after a few days of careful consideration, he finally made up his mind to follow Zhang Chen.

There are two main reasons why Duan Zhaoxiang made such a decision.

The first reason is that although Duan Zhaoxiang's trading company is well-known in the industry and has continuous business, because of the advent of the Internet era, information is no longer blocked, resulting in business negotiations no longer want to be as unattainable as in the past, and the company's development has also encountered bottlenecks.

The second reason, Zhang Chen's business acumen and foresight made Duan Zhaoxiang amazed, if it was just a success, it could only be said to be lucky, but the successive successes meant that Zhang Chen had a keen business sense, and to be able to cooperate with such a person, Duan Zhaoxiang, who was nearly 100 and a half years old, was willing to give a break for the rest of his life.

In fact, Zhang Chen also very much hopes that there can be a professional manager like Duan Zhaoxiang with many abilities around him to help him, but he feels that with the current situation, his temple is too small to accommodate a big Buddha like Duan Zhaoxiang, so he didn't invite Duan Zhaoxiang to help him, but now that Duan Zhaoxiang actually mentioned it himself, he naturally couldn't ask for it.

The two hit it off about the cooperation and entrepreneurship, Duan Zhaoxiang took out another 2.5 million, plus the 500,000 remuneration obtained from the negotiation, he invested a total of 3 million in the journey technology company, Zhang Chen discussed with Jiao Kai, and the two of them also invested 3 million respectively, so that the equity of the journey technology was diluted, and the equity ratio also changed.

Zhang Chen still holds 50% of the company's equity, Jiao Kai's equity has also increased from the initial 24% to 25.5%, Tengxun's equity has been reduced to 15%, and Duan Zhaoxiang and the company's veterans have 7.5% and 2% respectively.

The new investment of 9 million yuan has given Journey Technology sufficient working capital, and Jiao Kai, as the company's CEO, put forward his own views on how to use this fund.

Jiao Kai believes that Journey Technology is now facing two choices, one is to use this fund to establish a business department of Zhao website in major cities across the country, after all, Zhao website is a local information publishing platform, so only through local operation, can Zhao website be truly and effectively promoted.

Another option is to start the project of building a video website that Zhang Chen mentioned some time ago.

No matter which option it is, it requires a lot of capital investment, although 9 million seems to be a lot, but it is only enough to support one of the options, so it is necessary to choose one of the two, but Jiao Kai is more inclined to the first option, the reason is that the development of the zhao website has encountered a bottleneck, if you do not establish business divisions in various places, it is difficult to make a breakthrough, instead of going hand in hand, it is better to do one thing first and then develop other projects.

However, Zhang Chen and Jiao Kai have different views, and he feels that it is not suitable to develop Zhao's business divisions across the country, for the simple reason that China is about to face the biggest disaster of the 21st century - SARS.

Because of the invasion of SARS, China will soon implement martial law across the country, and it is obviously unwise to establish business branches in various places at this time, but SARS has not broken out at present, so if you want to convince Jiao Kai, Zhang Chen needs another reason.
