Chapter 60: The rivers and lakes are not about fighting and killing

"Zhang Yiming has increased the price."

This is the news that Yang Luyu and Zhu Jun told Lin Yi, because last time, Lin Yi promised that his bid was higher than that of the other two bidders.

Lin Yi and his sister previously entrusted Liu Jianni to cash out a part of Wanli Travel's shares, and the amount prepared was $1 billion.

This is because he knows the price at which Musically was acquired by Bytes, but with Lin Yi's horizontal insertion, it seems that things have changed.

Lin Yi was not in a hurry to sell more stocks, because he didn't plan to win musically just with the cash in the hands of himself and his senior sister.

Otherwise, why are you looking for a bear factory?

Another piece of news that Yang Luyu and Zhu Jun brought was that due to the increasing number of players participating in the bidding for musically, an important early investor felt that the odd goods were good to live and were ready to sit on the ground and raise the price.

Because the other party has a veto in his hand, he doesn't nod his head and no one wants to make a deal.

Specifically, the other party asked to buy two other products of its own, namely news aggregation platform News Public and live broadcast platform

To put it bluntly, it is a forced purchase and forced sale, and when you see that music is in demand, you want to tie in the worthless assets in your hand.

Yang Luyu and Zhu Jun regretfully said that if Lin Yi wanted to win musically, he had to solve this obstacle first.

Who is taking advantage of the fire to rob?

That guy's name is Fu Sheng, and he is the CEO of Fierce Leopard. And the company Leopard, its previous name is more well-known, called Jinshan Network.

"What did Zhang Yiming say?"

He agreed, and is communicating with Fu Sheng about the details of the acquisition of those two products at the same time.

Lin Yi knew it in his heart.

Zhang Yiming and Liu Zhen said lightly in front of them, in fact, bytes are determined to be musically, and they do not hesitate to bear more costs for this.

"What about the hand?"

"The blocker is very dissatisfied with Fu Sheng's blackmail, and the negotiations are currently stalled here."

Lin Yi knows that the block hand is not narrow, but Zhang Yiming's byte is valued at more than $20 billion in the latest round of financing, and the block hand is only about a quarter of it.

This means that the ability to contribute is very different.

Judging from Lin Yi's contact with Yang Luyu and Zhu Jun, their team itself should also be inclined to Zhang Yiming, it is said that the two sides have known each other for a long time, and they are a little sympathetic.

From a business point of view, Byte is also more in tune with Musically, and the Douyin that is being pushed is originally a localized product that imitates it.

The current situation is a bit complicated, but Lin Yi has even let out cruel words, and he will definitely not allow musically to take it out of his hands.

First of all, Fu Sheng's problem.

The easiest way to deal with it is to accept it all like Zhang Yiming, which is nothing more than to pay a little more money and dispose of the two apps that have been sold as garbage.

But this kind of plan is not only uneconomical, Lin Yi also doesn't want to condone this disgusting behavior.

He thought of someone.

Although Fu Sheng of Jinshan Network, that is, Liebao, is the CEO, its most famous figure should be Lei Jun, and the latter is still serving as the chairman of the company.

Rice mobile phone that Lei Jun.

Lin Yi had contact with Lei Jun for the promotion and financing of Wanli Travel before, of course, there were not many contacts, and it was probably not easy to let Boss Lei open up just by brushing his face, and the other party couldn't explain it in the company.

It doesn't matter, it's in business.

Lin Yi still went to him without hesitation, and after a long talk, Lei Jun promised to turn around for him on the matter of acquiring musically, so as to avoid the two tying heads.

In exchange, Lin Yi opened up to him the equity of his own car-making subsidiary, which has been named Pengcheng Automobile.

In 2017, Rice's mobile phones sold well, and he didn't plan to build a car in person, but the wave of new energy has been unable to turn a blind eye.

Therefore, it is a good business to choose a team that looks reliable to invest, and Li Bing, who has looked for Lin Yi before, has also received investment in rice.

For Lin Yi, Wanli Travel's car-making business is advancing in an orderly manner, and this piece will not be forever stuffed with the taxi business.

Independence is a matter of time, and Lin Yi also plans to find more partners, and this time Lei Jun, who won over Rice Mobile, just coincided with the meeting.

In short, Lin Yi took this opportunity to kick Fu Sheng's stumbling block away.

Next, his opponent was only Zhang Yiming.

This time, Lin Yi did not simply bid for musically, because the founding team of Yang Luyu and Zhu Jun still has a lot of say in the ownership of musically.

This team has a different mentality from Lin Yi's previous contact, Li Yongjin of Dahuangfeng Taxi, Lu Chuanwei and Chen Weixing of Kuaidu Taxi.

It is necessary to convince them that Lin Yi's acquisition of music can get more resources and support, and there will be better development.

At the same time, it is necessary to give them a certain bundle of interests.

Lin Yi didn't want to give musically a development plan, those vain things were useless, he decided to come up with the strongest endorsement.

So he went to find Little Pony again.

"Lin Yi, your energy is quite strong, you just stirred up trouble in the bike-sharing industry, and now the matter of the little yellow car and mobike has not yet been settled, why did you make great strides to cross over to short videos?"

Xiao Ma's tone sounded like a joke rather than a question, at least he wasn't angry at Lin Yi's rash visit.

Lin Yi simply explained his intentions: "I know that the goose factory is interested in buying musically, but because of Fu Sheng's unreasonable request, Su Hua has already retreated. ”

"It turns out that the block hand doesn't have that much determination, and the volume is not enough to swallow musically easily, and if you really want the overlord to make a hard bow, you will have indigestion."

"So if the goose factory is still going to eat this cake, it must be planned early."

Since Lin Yi came all the way over today, the so-called early plan is naturally to support him to participate in Musically's merger and acquisition.

Brother Xiao Ma asked: "If he can't do it, why do you think you can do it?" ”

Lin Yi replied fluently: "The tonality of the block hand and the musical are not consistent at all, even if it is forcibly fused, one will die sooner or later." ”

"And Douyin is copied according to the Chinese version of musically.,And the other party has its most coveted overseas users and a broad market.,So it's easy to integrate.。

"But let me emphasize that it was Douyin who copied musically and not the other way around, and the reason why its own local version could not open up the situation was only because of financial and technical shortcomings."

"If you have a strong team and enough resources to bring in, none of this is a problem."

Brother Xiao Ma didn't care about whether he copied it or not, but asked again: "Listening to you say that, do you still think it's the most logical thing to let Byte buy it?" ”

Lin Yi's explanation is: "Bytes are bytes, and the goose factory is the goose factory." Although it has mainly been making trouble for the bear factory in the past few years, can the goose factory really be indifferent? ”

"Pony, there's something you told me that I've been hiding in my heart for years, and I've never told anyone. You only get a once chance to musically, and I have to warn you. ”

"Do you remember?"

The highlight specially prepared by Lin Yi really worked, and Brother Xiaoma's expression moved slightly.

It's done.
