Song Chen didn't expect Son Masayoshi to ask such a question, he didn't hesitate for too long, but said casually: "I don't have money, and I don't have the ability to manage a huge company!" At the same time, if I accept my father's help, at least half of Chenxing Internet Cafe and even my business empire will not be mine! Of course, I will not deny that there is a personal affair in it, and Mr. Sun can be regarded as an 'adolescent rebellious behavior'! ”

Cai Zhixin's expression was dumbfounded, and after translating this speech to Sun Zhengyi, Sun Zhengyi first laughed similarly, and then noticed the word "empire", but he just nodded quietly: "I have to admit that Song Jun is very ambitious and has a strategic vision!" If I ask for a 49% stake in Chenxing with $100 million, what do you think of it? ”

Cai Chongxin's expression changed, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Song Chen, afraid that he would overreact to Sun Zhengyi to see the purpose - this is a bait on the ground, and Sun Zhengyi is not testing the value of Alibaba, but testing Song Chen's fleeting industrial plan just now.

Sure enough, Song Chen not only didn't care about the $100 million in sky-high funds, but shook his head categorically: "No!" ”

With a sly smile, Son said solemnly: "Why, your search engine department has only been open for more than a month, and there are no product and technology patents; Although your QQ department is growing rapidly, it can't find a profitable direction like IcQ; And Alibaba has only been online for a little more than a month, and I think 100 million dollars has taken a big advantage for you, and your worth will be squeezed into the ranks of China's top rich. ”

Noticing Cai Chongxin's frequent warnings, Song Chen knew that he had been tempted by Sun Zhengyi, he smiled to himself, and said in a mocking tone: "Mr. Sun Zhengyi, I plan to change the name of the three major business departments to Chenxing Holdings in the future!" This is an inheritance that I intend to leave to my children and grandchildren, and I will not accept investment from outsiders! ”

Sun Zhengyi almost understood the vague plan in Song Chen's heart, so he nodded and said, "Okay then!" I think that your company can now set up Chenxing Holding Company, and I hope to inject capital on QQ, Alibaba and search engines! 100 million dollars! 3o% equity of three ** subsidiaries! ”

It's an apple full of great temptation! Not only Song Chen, but even Cai Chongxin was also very tempted.

Seeing Song Chen biting his lower lip and his immature face struggling violently, Sun Zhengyi was even more sure that Song Chen must have the profit direction of the three business departments in his heart! If not, he must have accepted his own conditions like other Internet companies. "In addition, I will use the platform of SoftBank Group to help your company expand quickly in the international market!" Since Song Jun is waiting for me, he should believe in the strength of SoftBank Group! ”

Taking a deep breath, Song Chen politely refused: "I have no doubt about the strong strength of SoftBank Group!" The conditions are very attractive, but I have to regret to tell you, Mr. Sun, that the company does not need so much money for the time being! ”

Sun Zhengyi was stunned, and when he saw that Song Chen had once again rejected his kindness, he said unhappily: "Song Jun, why do you think I gave you such generous conditions?" That's because I believe your strategic vision will pay me big rewards! ”

Even Cai Chongxin was very moved to persuade: "Yes, general manager, we can consider Mr. Sun's construction!" ”

What made Sun Zhengyi and Cai Chongxin speechless was that Song Chen nodded in self-affirmation instead, and said unashamedly: "It is precisely because of this self-confidence that I will refuse Mr. Sun's kindness!" I believe that the QQ company and the search engine company decided that it was not worth the price! Moreover, I believe that Alibaba's future market value will be far greater than that of Yahoo! ”

Son Zhengyi stared at Song Chen tightly, and Song Chen also looked at Sun Zhengyi with confident eyes.

It's a pair of eyes that are determined and mixed with some kind of mystery!

Compared with the cunning and wealthy Sun Zhengyi, how can the young and immature Song Chen withstand the other party's sharp eyes like knives, and the three major business departments of Chenxing Company say that the prospects are unlimited, and the foundation is very thin! So Song Chen hesitated for a moment, and said sincerely: "Mr. Sun, Alibaba, QQ and Baidu are extremely key core technologies of the Internet, and the three will be related to each other in the future, which is a part of Chenxing's layout in the Internet industry!" You think $100 million is a big deal for me, and it seems to me that you're the one who took a big advantage! ”

Slightly moved, Son Masayoshi was silent for a moment and said, "Although I don't know where your confidence is...... QQ and search engine companies, I invested 25 million US dollars each, each accounting for 2o% equity! I invested another $50 million in Alibaba, also 2o%! ”

Tsai Chongxin finally understood the origin of Son's "madman", and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration. Song Chen, on the other hand, was silent for a moment, stood up and handed his hand to Sun Zhengyi, and said: "Five years later, there are two kinds of people on the board of directors of Chenxing's holding company, one is a madman who insists on persistence, and the other is a fool who is short-term and snobbish!" ”

Son Zhengyi shook Song Chen's hand and asked, "So did the madman win, or did the fool win?" ”

"In the Internet world, only a madman who persists will persevere to the end! will have the last laugh! This sentence refers to Ma Yun and Son Zhengyi, both of whom are called crazy, and Ma Yun has the saying that "no madness is not a demon", and Song Chen just has feelings. "The subsidiary will set up a board of directors, focusing on business development, in order to stranded unnecessary arguments, I don't think there are too many people, for the time being, Mr. Sun, you, me and the CEO of the subsidiary! In the future, if there are other venture capital injections, they are all one person, and the voting rights are subject to the actual shares! Moreover, $100 million must be paid in one lump sum! ”

"Yes!" Son thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. "But I'll leave someone to oversee the use of your company's $100 million!"

"This is the right thing to do! Finally......" Song Chen pondered for a moment and said, "The contract must state that if SoftBank Group sells the shares of Chenxing Holdings, Chenxing Holdings and I have the right to repurchase at the market price!" Regarding the profit plan, I would like Mr. Sun to keep it confidential! ”

"It's good for me!" There is no objection to this, and Son also nodded in agreement, and he also put forward a condition: "The three major companies must have a plan to list on the NASDAQ within three years." "This is Son Zhengyi's retreat, once Song Chen releases the cannon, he still has enough chance to cash out and leave.

Three years? Within two years, before the bubble crisis, the company had to go public! Song Chen had no objection, so Tsai Chongxin and the legal staff brought by Son began to draw up the contract.

At the same time, the reporters who had received the news had already gathered at the door of Chenxing Company, but they were dissuaded by the front desk of Chenxing.

On February 2o, 1998, the news that Masayoshi Son invested in the three subsidiaries of Chenxing with a total investment of 100 million US dollars was like a huge thunderclap, shocking the whole world, which was another shocking gamble by Masayoshi Son in the Internet industry after Yahoo, and also set a record for the financing of China's Internet industry. The last time Son made a huge profit at Yahoo, will it be the same this time?

Song Chen became one of China's top richest people in three months of entrepreneurship, which has become a topic of conversation in China, and people are shocked by the amazing wealth of the Internet, and countless college students regard Song Chen as the new "Bill Gates", becoming a new entrepreneurial idol in their minds, and have devoted themselves to the Internet industry.

When the reporter asked Son why he favored the three business departments of Chenxing Company, Son said such meaningful words to reporters: "The prospects of Chenxing Company are very charming, but this time it is the only time in my Vc career that I put aside the prospects of the invested company and the consideration of innovative technology, and invest 100 million US dollars in a pair of imaginative eyes!" Time will tell if I'm a 'madman' or a fool! ”

Newspapers around the world have devoted a lot of articles to the story behind Masayoshi Son's investment in Chenxing. The local newspaper in Dongou wrote a thought-provoking topic in a piece of bold characters: the silent teenager in the past, the entrepreneurial elite today!

Faced with the content with a gentle style and no irony and implication, Song Hua crumpled the newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash. He even swept all the office supplies on his desk to the ground in anger. The mess on the ground made Song Hua's friend and partner Shi Dongsheng sigh deeply.

Song Chen spent three months defeating the Great Song Group that he had worked so hard to build with more than ten years of accumulation. And the frustrating thing is that the success of his son can't let Song Hua share the joy as a father, and there is nothing more hateful and powerless than this.
