Song Chen put down the teacup and smiled slightly: "There is bad news all over the world, not only traditional companies or Internet companies, nor only NetEase or our Chenxing company, Mr. Ding doesn't need to take it to heart!" ”

Ding Lei smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "The stock prices of the three major listed companies in Chenxing have also fallen by 7o-8o% from the highest!" However, the most unhurried Internet companies in the world are probably you and your group companies! ”

Song Chen laughed and denied: "Calm and unhurried is just an external attitude, just like a person drinking water, he knows his own warmth and coldness!" The gentlemen on Wall Street muttered a lot of terms, and I didn't understand many of them, so I just hid and disappeared! ”

Song Chen's rhetoric, Ding Lei didn't believe it at all! It is true that Wall Street managers must have a lot of criticism of Song Chen, but after all, the other party has too many successful projects in their hands, such as Chenxing Technology and Chenxing Entertainment...... There must be a lot of people who complain, and those who are looking forward to it are only afraid of more! Otherwise, the inflated stock prices of the three major listed companies in Chenxing will definitely not only fall by seventy or eighty percent of the market value, but more likely to fall to the bottom like SoftBank Group or NetEase, rather than maintaining a stock price of ten or twenty dollars!

If you say that the most annoying thing about Song Chen is probably because he split the original Internet company with a comprehensive business into a "small company" with different market, technology, and service positioning, and even engaged in differentiated financing, so that investment institutions had to write endless articles to build a merger and listing of profitable companies such as Chenxing Entertainment, Chenxing Technology, Chenxing Games, Alipay, and Paypa1 to solve the problem of Chenxing Network and 8848's net loss.

Ding Lei smiled bitterly and didn't speak, Song Chen knew that the other party was in a heavy mood, and it was not suitable to talk to someone who had just met in a too frivolous tone. Strictly speaking, the relationship between the two sides is still a competitor, and the portal assets of Chenxing Network are trying to seize the status of the three major portals Sohu, Sina, and NetEase, and become the boss!

After the collapse of the Nashi market, the small actions of the Chenxing network continued. Acquired a number of web portals that were on the verge of collapse in the international market, and integrated all these assets and talents into QQ websites in different languages; In China, taking advantage of the three major portals and China.com when they were stuck in the mud of capital, not only did they not lay off employees, but recruited editors to a limited extent, obviously deliberately dragging competitors into their own rhythm.

Ding Lei is also a masterpiece of a generation, just like Amazon, how could he not know Song Chen Yaohua's plans? It's one thing to just have insight into the intentions of your competitors, but it's your own business to be aggressive or conservative, and this kind of upright conspiracy is definitely not something you can watch out for once you see it clearly.

Ding Lei didn't speak, and he was more restrained and shy than Song Chen imagined. This made Song Chen somewhat surprised. At this moment, Zhao Lin asked with great interest: "Mr. Ding, I heard that NetEase's domain name 163 is related to your height, and now it seems that the rumors are false, you are at least 177 cm!" ”

Zhao Lin's words were very abrupt, and the question was very impolite, Song Chen glared at her viciously, and Zhao Lin was cute and silent at the moment. Song Chen shook his head with a wry smile, and said secretly: Giving birth to a child is the same as not having a child. The character of ignorance is the same as before.

Ding Lei didn't look unhappy, but smiled very casually: "Of course this rumor is not true, someone arranged me at that time!" ”

"Don't listen to Uchiko's nonsense!" Glaring at Zhao Lin again, Song Chen quickly shifted the topic to areas of concern to both parties. "2oo1 is going to be a very important year! There is no doubt that this year is the year of mergers and acquisitions that will determine the future direction of the Internet industry, whether it is at home or abroad, it is difficult for anyone to stay out of it! This year's Peking University Jade Bird sneak attack on Sohu can be regarded as an example; You NetEase is also an example; And Sina. I heard that the voice of the Sina board of directors is a little wrong, and I don't know if Mr. Wang has it in his heart! ”

Smiling, Song Chen said meaningfully: "Introduce international capital." It means that the exchange and collision of Chinese and Western cultures, the will of capital can never be ignored, and some people may have to pay the price! ”

Mr. Wang? Wang Zhidong? Ding Lei began to be suspicious, except for some opposition voices from American investors, he had not heard of any analogous violent turmoil within Sina, but listening to the other party's conclusive tone, it seemed that Wang Zhidong's current situation was not optimistic? But then Ding Lei was relieved, in terms of international prestige and channel influence, Song Chen is a well-known figure at home and abroad, and of course he has his own news channels.

Ding Lei didn't know that the reason why Song Chen hinted that Wang Zhidong's situation was not optimistic was because he had read the other party's news, not because someone sued him! After all, Wang Zhidong was kicked out after starting a business is not a lonely thing, there are many reports on the Internet, and it is he who knows about it.

Ding Lei muttered: "This year is indeed a crucial year, in fact, whether it is our Sina, Sohu, NetEase three major portals, or other small and medium-sized websites, shareholders and management have to face a problem: whether to insist on independent exhibition, or to be acquired!" Pure portals, because of the lack of profit base, must look for a strong capital background to survive! In addition to the Chenxing network, the shares of the three major portals in the NASDAQ in the United States are only around 1 US dollar, which is about one-tenth of the market price, and it is difficult to support it on its own, and the choice in front of us is: either it is acquired by a stronger company to last longer; Either quickly find the profit explosion point and get a chance to survive! ”

Seeing Song Chen nodding, Ding Lei asked very humbly: "I just met here with a private equity fund manager who focuses on equity trading in Internet companies, and he proposed a few suggestions to me, but I have been hesitant!" I happened to see you here when I was leaving......"

Speaking of which, Ding Lei was somewhat unspeakable.

Song Chen understands the embarrassment of the other party, just like he said before, in terms of age and qualifications, Ding Lei has an advantage over Song Chen, and it is inevitable for him to ask his juniors for some things. So he smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be hovering between selling or not selling NetEase, right?" ”

Ding Lei nodded slightly: "The company's current situation is quite bad!" ”

Song Chen also nodded and muttered, "$900 million is unrealistic!" Amazon, whose asset income is much larger and 'heavier' than yours, was only assessed at $100 million not long ago, not to mention NetEase, which has an annual revenue of less than 100 million yuan! ”

Ding Lei shook his head and smiled to himself: "I know, this is just my negotiation strategy!" ”

Song Chen laughed silently, and suddenly put aside this heavy topic, and instead raised another question: "Mr. Ding, suppose you sell NetEase for $900 million tomorrow, have you thought about how to go in the future?" ”

"This ......" Ding Lei obviously hadn't thought about this question yet, so he was dazed for a while before shaking his head and said, "I'm so anxious during this time, I just want to make myself relaxed, and I haven't thought about it so long-term for the time being!" Although the capital market has deteriorated, there are still many market opportunities, and I should continue to look for opportunities in the Internet field! ”

Song Chen pondered for a moment and asked, "How much cash does NetEase have at its disposal now?" ”

After all, NetEase is a listed company, and it will report its financial results at a fixed time every year, so it is not a secret how much cash the company has, especially for the young man in front of him. So Ding Lei didn't hesitate and replied: "8ooo more than 10,000 US dollars!" ”

Song Chen asked again: "How many active users are there?" ”

Ding Lei was somewhat hesitant this time, but quickly replied: "17oo thousand!" ”

Song Chen smiled slightly, and said meaningfully: "Now, don't you already have an Internet company with huge influence and abundant funds?" Why waste time from scratch? ”

Ding Lei was slightly stunned, and then thoughtfully, he vaguely understood what Song Chen meant.

Seeing that the other party was thinking about it, Song Chen smiled heartily: "Needless to say, I'm actually quite interested in you NetEase!" If Chenxing Network can annex NetEase, it will not only break the existing pattern and lead to a comprehensive reshuffle of the portal, but also boost the stock price of Chenxing Network from the capital level - of course, this price cannot be too great! With the current market value of your NetEase approaching cash assets, let alone $900 million, $300 million is difficult to reach the target! ”

Ding Lei frowned slightly, and then slowly bowed his chin and agreed.

The environment is like this, unless you meet Kaizi, who is not bad for money, who will invest so much money to buy a garbage company that will be delisted by the city at any time because of a financial scandal? Song Chen's words just now actually took care of his face.

Ding Lei groaned: "Sina and Sohu are too busy to take care of themselves, and the background of China.com is too deep, so they may not be a good target to take over, and the other party may not be interested; Hong Kong i-Cable Broadband is interested in my company, but I am not very satisfied with the means in the past! If you are interested, I can transfer my equity in NetEase to you! Of course, at a very sincere price! ”

"Hehe, Mr. Ding can't help it!" Song Chen glanced at the other party and saw that his expression was unnatural, so he hooked his lips and smiled, and continued, "To exaggerate a little in some media, our business of China Chenxing Holding Group has already controlled the traffic of China's Internet!" But even so, it does not mean that our Chenxing can occupy the huge market of China! Therefore, in addition to making competitors more fearful and fearful, and making the government more vigilant, the annexation of NetEase will not be of substantial help to us, after all, the focus of Chenxing Network is not on online advertising! ”

Ding Lei smiled bitterly: "Yes, you Chenxing Group don't have to stare at the profit point of online advertising, you have online games, keyword advertising, you can sell hardware, and you can do software services (ihips)...... But for us, online advertising is the life and death line we rely on for survival, and we can't stare at this small piece of cake like flies! It's just that after the NASDAQ stock crash, advertisers fled one after another, and it is inevitable that our portals will have a hard time! ”

It seemed that the long-suppressed complaint erupted, and it wasn't until the last sentence was finished that Ding Lei realized that he was a little out of shape when he saw Song Chen's smiling expression. (To be continued......)
