Chapter 280: A Hundred Billion Dollar Future
Zheng Xian didn't expect that his trip to the United States, which he thought he could make a big news, would become like this, and after looking through the negatives in the room with a cold face, he was still indefatigably rummaging through the places where things might be hidden in the entire room.
The owner of this small hotel had been there once, and after the tall middle-aged man handed him a wad of green bills, he stopped talking, and anyone could tell that these people were not easy to mess with.
"No more! All gone! Zheng Xian shouted loudly after looking at the room almost being turned into a garbage heap.
Xie Qing crossed his arms and glanced at the people who brought him, and one of them picked up Zheng Xian and walked to the parking lot downstairs.
Zheng Xian no longer resisted, because on the way from the Hilton to here, he had shouted loudly and wanted to find the police, but he was immediately knocked unconscious, and his head was still a little painful.
"Where do you want to take me?" Zheng Xian asked as he twisted his aching arm that was being held by the bodyguard.
"You'll know when you get there."
This sentence made Zheng Xian's heart chill, he had never eaten pork, he had always seen a pig walking, and Hollywood blockbusters were often sent to a wilderness to understand it with a shot.
He didn't live enough to die, Zheng Xian struggled to hit the car door, but was knocked out by the bodyguard with another slap.
I don't know how long later, Zheng Xian opened his eyes again and found himself on a cruise ship.
"Where am I?" Zheng Xian grabbed the attendant on the boat and asked.
"Don't you know? Sir, we are now on the high seas and have fifty hours to go to Shanghai, I wish you a pleasant trip. The waiter bowed with the tray and walked away.
Zheng Xian sat slumped in the room, and it took a long time to rush out of the suitcase the negatives that had been developed out and retaken with special film, only to find that both the suitcase and the clothes were all new.
And he's not James? Bond, he doesn't hide the negative in his teeth, and it's impossible to swallow it in his stomach.
After sitting for a long time, Zheng Xian decided to use a pen to record his trip to the United States and publish it in the newspaper.
……
"Zheng Xian, now in Chinese New Year's Eve, is known for exposing industry insiders, formerly worked as an investigative reporter at Henan Times, was hunted down for exposing the inside story of Zhengzhou's futures market, and now works as an investigative reporter at Nanguo Weekly." Xie Qing looked at the email sent from China and said.
Investigative journalists? Yu Jun pursed his lips and said, "Have all his negatives been washed out?" ”
"I've already found a private drying studio to do the rinsing." For fear that Kodak's printing shop would have archives in its digital printers, I found a private studio and used a darkroom to do it.
"Well," Yu Jun said, shaking the bright red wine in his hand, "he may write an article about it and publish it in the Nanguo Weekly, but who can believe it." ”
Media public opinion can be controlled and guided, and without photos as evidence, even if Zheng Xian writes something sensational, it is not highly credible.
Whether it is an investigative journalist or an ordinary journalist, before the flood of online media, media professionals in traditional media will demand the authenticity of the incident.
There is no way to send Zheng Xian back to China, it can't really kill people, right?
"Mingyao came here with someone from IDGVC." Wang Bing pushed the door in and said.
Yu Jun glanced at the time, it was already half past five in the afternoon, and in another hour, he would invite Qin Chuguo and Ding Lanfang to eat at the famous T&CK restaurant in San Francisco, and now it would take half an hour to rush over, still without traffic jams.
I don't know what it means for the people from IDGVC to come over now.
"Let's meet first, maybe it won't be long, you can greet me later." Yu Jun lifted the windbreaker on the sofa and got up.
Yi Mingyao and the people from IDGVC sat downstairs in the café and waited, chatting casually about some interesting things about Wall Street. Although Yi Mingyao was a senior partner at Goldman Sachs China, he had worked on Wall Street for a while and was familiar with IDGVC.
Not to mention John who came back this time? Murphy was his roommate at Harvard Business School, and although the two joined Goldman Sachs and IDGVC respectively after graduation, they have always been in touch.
"The reward is not the most important thing, the important thing is the sense of achievement."
When Murphy mentioned Yi Mingyao's resignation from Goldman Sachs to form the Thunderstorm Fund, Yi Mingyao replied to him like this.
"A sense of accomplishment? It's a very mysterious thing, easy. Murphy shrugged his shoulders and took a sip of his coffee.
"You should know how difficult it is for Chinese to become a senior partner at Goldman Sachs headquarters," Yi Mingyao sighed, "It's better to find a few investors and do it yourself." ”
Murphy smiled: "Your investor is the genius of Xiling Holdings, right?" ”
Xiling Holdings' deposit zài is not a secret in the eyes of well-intentioned people, even Oracle can find out, IDGVC's business development in China can be regarded as the best among all investment banks, and Thunder Online's investment is in, so it is clear that Yu Jun's deposit zài.
"He's really a genius." Yi Mingyao said this, and he heard the slight ridicule in Murphy's words.
"Oh? So what does it mean for him to buy Blizzard and spin off Thunder Online's search business? After Murphy finished speaking, he saw that Yi Mingyao pursed his lips and didn't answer, and said with a smile: "Yi, before talking to you, I was forced by you to sign a confidentiality agreement, you can't say a word, right?" ”
"Okay, I can tell you the approximate reason, but don't be too surprised when you hear it."
What Yi Mingyao said at the meeting, deleted and reduced to Murphy, the reason for the acquisition of Blizzard is still a little vague, Murphy did not ask for details, but when he heard the rough model of the business model of the spin-off search business, his mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Yi Mingyao in disbelief.
"This was figured out by one person?" Murphy exclaimed.
"I can't think of anyone else who can come up with a business model that, by my estimates, is worth about $10 billion." Yi Mingyao said, suddenly thinking that every step Yu Jun took was at least tens of billions of yuan, so what would the future of the Thunderstorm Fund be in his heart? Thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel his heart beat faster for a while.
"No, no, no," Murphy shook his head vigorously, "It's not yet proven, but if it really does, this business model is worth more than 100 billion dollars......
"Hundreds of billions of dollars?" Yi Mingyao was stunned.
"Probably, based on my simple estimate, I'm calculating the market capitalization." Murphy explained.
Yi Mingyao was relieved, accustomed to Yu Jun's calculations, Xiling Holdings' subsidiaries will never calculate market capitalization, but calculate annual profits.
"I admire him," Murphy said suddenly, "Bill? Gates, Jeff? Bezos, Lawrence? Ellison, Steve? Jobs, Pierre? Omidyar, America's IT heroes, can't make a company a giant with profits of more than $3 billion in two years. ”
Yi Mingyao frowned and looked at Murphy: "I don't know what you're talking about." ”
"Yi, even if these companies are not listed companies, but the investment amount of Yunfeng Electronics, as well as the investment of Fengyun Network, Thunder Online, Kingsoft Software, Kingdee Software, and other enterprises, and the number of debt ratios, can I still not guess?" Murphy smiled and said.
"Aren't you in charge of American affairs? When did you start to care about Asia? Yi Mingyao asked.
"You proposed to do something in the United States, and now the plan is to send me to Asia, I should always help with my homework." Murphy blinked mysteriously.
There is always no shortage of mercenary villains, Oracle can find out about Xiling Holdings through the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, and IDGVC can naturally find out the liabilities of Xiling Holdings' companies through the relationship between the financial system, and the United States is no exception, otherwise how would Xie Qing send a "drunk" person to the Tiffany International Cruise Ship bound for Shanghai.
Yi Mingyao wanted to ask some other things, but when he saw Yu Jun coming over with Wang Bing, he hurriedly got up and stepped forward to tell him what had been negotiated, and then said: "Goldman Sachs hasn't answered yet, JP Morgan and Lehman Brothers said that they would send someone to contact him tomorrow." ”
Yu Jun patted him on the shoulder, saying that he had worked hard, who asked him to put up a boss who was still thinking about which topless nightclub to go to at night.
"Mr. Murphy, I think you have the general situation, and since you will be in charge of Asian affairs in the future, the next conversation is very appropriate." Yu Jun said, Murphy wanted to say a polite word, but he waved his hand to stop him.
From this small detail, Murphy realized that this genius teenager was definitely a strong figure, not a software genius who had become famous and impetuous, as he had met in the past.
"Thunder Online's search department will be spun off, now tentatively called BX, China BX, Xiling Holdings will increase its capital by $10 million to expand its business, IDGVC and Goldman Sachs should also fulfill the capital contribution obligations of major shareholders, of course, the specific matter will be resolved by the board of directors and shareholders." Yu Jun took the ice water handed over by Wang Bing, took a sip and continued, "As for BX in the United States, Xiling Holdings will increase its capital by 50 million US dollars, and related matters also need to be resolved by the board of directors and shareholders. ”
The amount of capital injection is not small, and before the feasibility plan came out, he talked about specific things, Murphy was slightly surprised, but still asked quietly: "What kind of subjects will China BX and American BX be?" ”
"I expect to set up two independent companies to operate and establish a joint R&D organization," Yu Jun said with a slight smile, "Maybe wait until the feasible plan comes out in three days, Mr. Murphy, it's not too late for you to think about it." ”
Murphy was slightly stunned, he didn't expect to think of anything Yu Jun guessed, and this time was originally a preliminary contact, he wanted to meet this young man who was rumored to be mysterious in China's IDGVC.
"Okay, I still have a dinner, for specific things, please ask Mr. Murphy to talk to Wang Bing and Mingyao, it's a loss." Yu Jun glanced at his watch and got up to leave.
Murphy looked at the teenager who seemed to be a hundred times busier than himself, and shook his head in confusion.
