Chapter 119: In the Shadow of Victory
When Lei Jun resolutely left Jinshan, the retention price offered by Jinshan Company was a part of Jinshan's stock options. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
According to Jinshan's share price at the time, that money was worth about 1.6 billion yuan.
But Lei Jun still didn't stay.
This example is semi-public in the circle. At that time, many people who were not optimistic about Lei Jun's worth felt that Lei Jun was arrogant and arrogant, and he was unwilling to continue working even if he had so much money.
As for those bigwigs who were very optimistic about Lei Jun and had moved to solicit when he just left Jinshan, they were also frightened by the price of 1.6 billion options. I thought I couldn't come up with a compromise price that satisfied Lei Jun and made me feel cost-effective, so I gave up.
Now, 16 months have passed since Lei Jun left Jinshan. The other party used years of savings and venture capital to drum up the operation of UC, as if it had a market value of 500 million US dollars and a mobile phone software company with excellent growth momentum, and stood firmly at the forefront of this wave of transformation from the PC Internet era to the mobile Internet era.
The guy who won a personal worth far more than 1.6 billion yuan and a company with 500 million US dollars in his hand didn't have two or three times the amount of money and ammunition, so he couldn't even think about it.
Fortunately, as one of the few Internet giants in China, after lifting the ban on a number of restricted shares, Gu Mojie has the financial strength.
Jiangnan will only be three to five kilometers away from the Zhuxi Trail, and Gu Mojie will naturally not use helicopters again. He took the power with him, and a Maybach was solved.
Sitting in the car, Bao'er couldn't help but ask the same question: "How much money have you recovered in the past ten days of selling?" ”
Although Bao'er was not the first woman to ask this question in the past few days, Gu Mojie still couldn't hide her smugness and spoke in detail.
"On the first day of selling, the concentrated transaction price was around 36.2, and then the lowest was 35.3. But since the third day, there have been steady large sumptions there, and it can be seen that the two institutions have concentrated the competitive pallet of funds. Since then, by April 30, the stock price has never fallen below $37. Generally, it fluctuates within the range of 37~40. In the end, Sister Fei calculated the account, 350 million shares, the average transaction price was 37 yuan and 9 cents, and a total of more than 13.2 billion yuan was withdrawn. ”
Bao'er was taken aback, and her mouth opened into an O-shape.
"Only 5% has melted 13.2 billion! If the remaining 10% were all traded at this price, wouldn't it add up to a total of 40 billion? I remember you said that it took 15% to raise 21.3 billion last year, right? It's only been in business for a year, and the market value has doubled? ”
"I don't think it's normal, according to the actual company value, I think it's understandable to release a 50% premium compared to last year, and doubling it is too high. It is estimated that there are institutions in the market that have gotten some rumors, and they are absorbing a huge amount of chips, ready to make a wave.
As you know, as long as the reopening of the IPO of the China Securities Regulatory Commission is not announced, there will be a huge amount of money in the market in the capital pool, and Brother Yong has learned through some news that this hot money that can enter the market at any time has a scale of about more than 200 billion yuan. Even if you take 40 billion to play Hatsune Entertainment, it is possible. ”
Listening to Gu Mojie's meaning, he himself also sensed that there might be a conspiracy behind such a price increase, but for now, he didn't care about it.
Boa doesn't have any professional opinions to say, just forget it.
It's a five-kilometer drive and the Maybach is just a few minutes. They didn't have time to talk more, so they arrived at the Jiangnan meeting.
Before the time to make an appointment with Lei Jun arrived, Gu Mojie went upstairs first to make a pot of tea with Bao'er and waited slowly, and explained a few words to her by the way.
Boa understands that this time she is going to play the role of that bad woman.
Chinese talk about business with each other and bring their "outer room" out to meet people, which is a manifestation of not taking each other to see outsiders.
But the premise is that the outer room you bring out must be able to handle it, and you can't do anything wasteful. If you have to fight for a position, pull a group photo of the guests and even show it to the outside world, showing the relationship between that woman and the "xxx industry boss", this kind of outer room will be disgusting.
When you should be dumb, you should be a mute woman, so that you can take it out to meet people in secret business occasions.
……
After drinking a pot of tea at the Jiangnan Club, Lei Jun and his party arrived.
Gu Mojie personally went downstairs to greet him, but as soon as he saw the battle of people, his face immediately changed.
Lei Jun didn't come alone, he also brought two of his subordinates.
This is not like a private conversation between the big guys, but like a showdown between business and business - for example, it seems that he does not mean to sell the interests of his subordinates and eat alone.
In the case of a company acquisition, if the boss who absolutely holds the majority of shares negotiates with the investor alone, it is easy to sacrifice the interests of some minority shareholders in exchange for additional off-market benefits.
"You go up and wait, and you come out again." Gu Mojie kept a calm face and whispered to Bao'er to step back first. Bao'er bowed slightly to Lei Jun and the others with a very good look, and turned to go upstairs without saying a word during the whole process.
"Mr. Gu is so Yaxing, he doesn't forget to add fragrance to his red sleeves wherever he goes." Lei Jundang didn't see anything to do, and stretched out his hand to shake hands with a big grin.
His eyes are a little slit, his nasolabial folds are a little deep, and the whole person exudes a mature and stable aura that is accustomed to strong winds and waves. In terms of age, he is actually about the same age as Boss Li of Du's mother's family, but he looks really old.
Gu Mojie assessed the other party's aura, in terms of confidence and composure, Lei Jun is definitely in the top five among the IT bigwigs he has seen in his life. Except for Xiao Ma and Boss Li, I really can't tell whose aura can steadily overpower Lei Jun.
Although Zhang Chaoyang was a little impetuous, although he was Xuanhe; Zhou Hongyi was unscrupulous and strong, but he was more ruffian; Maybe only Netease Ding Sanshi, who looks harmless to humans and animals, can compare his real aura with Lei Jun.
Gu Mojie's own Ye Weilun and Gu Yong generals have not yet reached this height.
It's a talent, it's a pity.
Such a person, since he has jumped out, even the CEO of Jinshan does not bother to do it, and he is not very willing to be recruited by Gu Mojie.
"Mr. Lei laughed, I was in a hurry to come over today, there are still some things that the brokerage company has not yet dealt with, and Miss Quan is rushing to ask for instructions." Gu Mojiepi explained with a smile, raised his hand and pointed to the two people behind Lei Jun, "I don't know if these two are ......."
"Oh, Yu Yongfu, Fu Sheng, my CEO and COO at UC. Mr. Gu doesn't blame me for bringing them along, they are also minority shareholders. ”
"No blame, no blame, it should be. Let's go, go up first and talk later. ”
Gu Mojie said, leading Lei Jun and the three upstairs. Upstairs, Quan Bao'er had already instructed the maid to arrange the refreshments for the guests, and then left early.
Gu Mojie sat down on the main seat, chuckled and said, "Mr. Lei brought so many people to talk today, it seems that there is no problem in terms of intention?" Did you bring the 'bookkeeper' to bargain with me? ”
"The intention also has to be discussed, whether the negotiation is good, and the bargaining is also necessary." Both sides were trying to nourishment, but they both had smiles on their faces.
After using some tea and testing each other for a few minutes, Gu Mojie said what he meant frankly.
"Lao Lei, since you have brought people here today, I will also give you a price - UC's current venture capital valuation is 500 million US dollars, and I will privatize it and give you a 60% premium, which is 800 million US dollars, 5.5 billion yuan. Back then, Jinshan gave you an equity worth 1.6 billion, and I still gave you so much, Brother Yu and Brother Fu, each with 200 million.
You say, is there room for negotiation on this condition; If not, we at Hatsune would have to build our own app development group. ”
5.5 billion yuan to buy shares, plus 2 billion expenses to poach people, the total cost of Gu Mojie's first opening to the UC department reached 7.5 billion yuan.
The reason why so much is given is mainly because UC has seized the market opportunity of mobile browser and mobile phone search, and now has the largest market share in these two segments in China. The valuation of UC by the outside world is mainly supported by these market data.
Lei Jun didn't mean to be an eagle at all.
"$800 million...... That's a lot. It's May 09 now, give me another seven or eight months, and by the end of the New Year in 10 years, believe it or not, I will make UC's valuation reach 800 million by my own strength? ”
"If no one robs you, that's a good reason. But if you don't sell it, we won't make it ourselves. Gu Mojie's expression was still smiling, and he always maintained neither humility nor arrogance, "What's more, UC is now looking rampant, it is nothing more than taking advantage of the gradual popularization of the Android system to take the lead - Android This opportunity is still provided to you by me, on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore." ”
Lei Jun didn't answer, Gu looked at the furnishings in the room for a while, touched his stomach and changed the topic and said, "I'm a little hungry, let's talk while eating." ”
Gu Mojie was interrupted from his rhythm, and he didn't say much.
The maid downstairs immediately arranged the dishes on the table. The business banquet of the Jiangnan Club, even if it is Chinese food, is still a separate meal system, which is very elegant and distinct.
"As far as I know, Mr. Gu has recently lifted the ban on restricted shares. Otherwise, it is estimated that we will not be able to take out so much cash to directly negotiate the acquisition with our UC. ”
"It's not a secret in the first place, and it's not uncommon to know about it."
"I know, it's not a secret - I don't know how much money has been melted?"
Gu Mojie felt that this question was a little funny: "What? Lao Lei, are you going to see how much money I have, so you ask me how high the price is? ”
"Why, just ask. Forget it, anyway, before June, the total price will definitely be calculated - take the data statistics of the Shanghai Stock Exchange and come out. ”
"Okay, I won't hide it from you, let you see my sincerity - before May Day, I had already sold and cashed out 13 billion, and I still had twice the share. UC company, I'm going to decide; But if you dare to open 13 billion, then I will not hesitate to start another business and get an app company by myself, and burn money to burn UC. ”
Lei Jun smiled "honestly": "Don't, UC can't resist your anger." However, after taking 40 billion, I just stared at a UC, is the situation a little smaller? It's convenient to talk about anything else you want to buy besides UC? ”
"Do you count as spying on my trade secrets? Okay, but I don't care. Gu Mojie spread his hands, took out a cigar and fiddled with it, "I'll just tell you that I have at least three or four notes on the memorandum for mergers and acquisitions that are about the same scale or even larger than UC. ”
"Mr. Gu is really confident. Interlaced like a mountain, you have money, but do you have enough talent reserves to shop this bureau? If money alone can solve the problem, why didn't those big oil princes kill everyone in the Silicon Valley venture capital circle? ”
"What do you mean?"
"I want to make sure that you have enough strength to run these industries well. If you can't even overcome the 'indigestion' after rapid expansion, how can I trust UC to you? Let's prove yourself first, and then let's talk about money. ”
"You want to stall?"
"It won't be delayed for long." Indigestion' will be known in a month or two. If you survive the storms, I'll negotiate with you. Lei Jun said, put down the chopsticks, and wiped his mouth, "I don't have a good appetite today, so be it." ”
"Come on, send Mr. Lei out."
Lei Jun refused: "No need, let's just go by ourselves." Xiao Yu Xiaofu, you sit in the car in front. I'm a little tired and have to lie down in the car for a while. ”
"Can you rest for a while when you're tired?"
"Don't bother." Lei Jun's expression flickered slightly, picked up his coat and went out.
"Then I'll go too, and I'll give you a ride by the way." Gu Mojie followed out.
Yu Yongfu and Fu Sheng got into the first car, and Lei Jun got into the second car alone. Gu Mojie sat in his own Maybach and followed behind. The driver in the car had been sent away, and Gu Mojie asked Bao'er to drive.
……
Lei Jun's car was soundproofed in the front and back, and when he got into the car, he took out his mobile phone and made an encrypted call.
"Jiang Gongzi, I have already inquired about what I asked me to inquire about. 40 billion, Gu Mojie has already arranged a radish and a pit. So he must have sold it all, without leaving his hands, and he will not leave reserves to buy back. Let's forget it, don't look for me in the future. ”
The person on the other side didn't say a word from beginning to end, and it was always Lei Jun who spoke unilaterally until he hung up.
Gu Mojie's Maybach always follows Lei Jun's car less than 50 meters behind, and the high-definition lens can vaguely see the movements in Lei Jun's car.
Lei Jun said that he was tired and wanted to sit in the car alone, but he didn't see him lying down after getting in the car, which made Gu Mojie even more suspicious. From the beginning to the end of today, the other party's expression was a little indifferent and indifferent, not like a negotiator, but like a play.
Seeing Lei Jun vaguely taking out his mobile phone, Gu Mojie was even more puzzled. He pressed the frame of his glasses.
"Can you intercept the other party's communications?"
"Distance Verification Progress...... The target is 46 meters away from our position, the signal strength is good, and the comprehensive noise is -89dB...... Signal sorting...... The call carrier is encrypted...... Code Cracking ...... Cracked ......"
Then Lei Jun's call was intercepted by Gu Mojie.
"Who did you just talk to?" Bao'er, who was driving, asked carefully.
"Have I spoken to anyone?" Gu Mojie was a little puzzled, his Maybach was also soundproof, and the people in the driver's seat in the front row couldn't hear the people in the back row.
"I see your mouth moving in the mirror......"
It turned out that I just saw my mouth move...... Luckily, no one around me could lip-read.
"Oh, I'm talking to myself alone. Today's house is not authentic, I offer such a high price and raise the price with me! (To be continued.) )
