Chapter 424: After becoming rich overnight, Zhang Shuo once again became the public enemy of capital!
Day, Friday.
Nomi Dianping wholly acquired Meow Meow Bicycle for 1.5 billion.
After the acquisition is completed, Miaomiao Bicycle will still maintain independent brand operations in the early stage. Later, user data and other information will be fully integrated with Nomi Dianping, and will eventually be fully integrated into Nomi Dianping.
There are two other changes.
First, the main payment tool will be transferred from Weixin Pay to Caifutong, a subsidiary of Tenda.
Second, the map navigation will be switched to Qiandu Map, and Haode Map will sadly exit.
In order not to cause excessive resentment among Miaomiao Bicycle users, Nomi Dianping is somewhat conscientious and allows users to continue to use Weixin to log in with one click. Weixin payment is only hidden and has not been truly cancelled.
It’s all about playing with some little tricks.
But no matter what, the successful acquisition of Meow Meow Bicycle by Nomi Dianping means that Nomi Dianping is already significantly ahead of Ali-Dianping in this money-burning battle for shared bicycles.
Based on this alone, the acquisition price of 1.5 billion is well worth it.
Not to mention, after acquiring Miaomiao Bicycle, it can further expand the application scenarios of Caifutong, Qiandu Map, ICQ, etc., which is definitely a very cost-effective deal.
certainly.
The founding team of Meow Meow Bicycle is not at a loss either.
Miaomiao Bicycle, which was established less than a year ago, has a registered capital of only 100 million. With the 50 million angel investment, the final valuation is 1.5 billion, which is equivalent to a fifteenfold increase.
Where can I find such a good deal?
Therefore, on the second day after the transaction was completed, which also happened to be the weekend, Cai Miaomiao and Xu Jia generously booked a private club, hosted a banquet for relatives and friends, and held a small-scale celebration.
Lao Zhang and his second uncle also rushed over from Jiangcheng.
Very lively.
"Xiao Shuo, thanks to your help, Meow Meow Bicycle finally landed safely."
It can be seen that the second uncle is very excited.
When he learned that his daughter Miaomiao was starting a business, his second uncle had been worried that Miaomiao would screw up the company. He was always on tenterhooks. He didn't usually read the news, but in the past year he had been surfing the Internet a lot.
The purpose is to pay attention to news related to Meow Meow Bicycle.
In the past two months, with the turbulence in the shared bicycle field, Ali Dianping and Nomi Dianping have launched a subsidy war, my second uncle is even more worried and often suffers from insomnia in the middle of the night.
I'm just afraid that Meow Meow's bicycle will overturn.
Well now, Miaomiao Bicycle has been successfully acquired by Nomi Dianping, and it has also received high returns. The second uncle's long-awaited heart has finally come to fruition.
can only say--
Poor parents in the world!
The second uncle also knew very well that whether it was the establishment of Miaomiao Bicycle or the acquisition of Miaomiao Bicycle, it was Zhang Shuo who gave guidance behind the scenes, so naturally he became even more grateful.
"Second uncle, you are making a fool of yourself when you say this. In fact, Miaomiao is quite capable."
Zhang Shuo was not entirely complimentary.
When he founded Miaomiao Bicycle, Cai Miaomiao was just a freshman. Even though Xu Jia was responsible for daily operations and management, the fact that he could sustain it all the way proved Cai Miaomiao's ability.
How can ordinary college students achieve this level?
Either you are intimidated by the difficulties, or your business has already reached the end of the road before you have succeeded.
Zhang Shuo saw some excellent qualities in Cai Miaomiao.
Hearing Zhang Shuo's praise, Cai Miaomiao raised her little tail, hugged her second uncle's arm, and said proudly: "Did you hear that, Dad? I'm very capable, don't always look down on others."
No wonder Cai Miaomiao is proud, she is now a veritable billionaire.
After Miaomiao Bicycle was acquired by Nomi Dianping, major investors or investment institutions naturally made a lot of money, and jointly shared the 1.5 billion book income based on their shareholding ratios.
Fenglei Fund invested 50 million, holding 20% of the shares, and received 300 million in profits;
The Prodigal Fund invested 45 million, holding 36% of the shares, and received a profit of 540 million;
Jiawei Culture invested 25 million, holding 20% of the shares, and received 300 million in profits;
Cai Miaomiao invested 10 million, holding 16% of the shares, and received 240 million in profits;
Xu Jia and Lin Weiwei each invested 5 million, holding 4% of the shares, and each received 60 million in income.
As for half of Cai Miaomiao's 240 million income, it was a loan from the prodigal sub-fund. According to relevant regulations, he must first repay the principal of 10 million, and then divide this part of the income equally.
That is to say——
Cai Miaomiao has to pay 2.01 billion (240 million to 100 million) to the Prodigal Fund, totaling 65 million.
Even so.
Through this entrepreneurial venture, Cai Miaomiao became a billionaire in one fell swoop.
Of course, the above are just book gains, whether it is Cai Miaomiao, Xu Jia, Lin Weiwei as individual investors, or institutional investors such as Prodigal Fund, Jiawei Culture and Fenglei Fund.
After all transactions are completed, relevant taxes must be paid in accordance with regulations.
Such as personal income tax and so on.
But no matter what, the Prodigal Fund made a huge profit of nearly 600 million through its investment in Meow Meow Bicycle. Even if Zhang Shuo no longer injects capital in the future, it will still be enough to support the world.
Not to mention talking about it.
The Prodigal Fund is also the largest shareholder of Jiawei Culture.
If Jiawei Culture chooses to go public, its size will not be comparable to that of Meow Meow Bicycle. A conservative estimate is that the market value will be more than 10 billion.
A solid quality stock!
"Don't stick your tail up. Next, you need to keep a low profile. The right way is to finish college with peace of mind."
Regarding the fact that his daughter suddenly became a billionaire, to be honest, the second uncle was also a little confused and had not done a good job in psychological preparation in this regard.
I had trouble sleeping again last night...
Fortunately, the family has a role model like Zhang Shuo, so he calmed down quickly.
"knew."
Cai Miaomiao actually had the same plan.
Although it took less than a year from the establishment of Miaomiao Bicycle to the sale of Miaomiao Bicycle, it was undoubtedly a very rare and unforgettable experience for Cai Miaomiao.
Although he succeeded by chance, Cai Miaomiao realized his shortcomings and made up his mind to study more, study hard, recharge more, and be like his cousin Zhang Shuo.
It can be seen from this that the role of role models of people around you is indeed subtle.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Of course Zhang Shuo also supports Cai Miaomiao's decision.
He has communicated with Lao Zhang. After Miaomiao graduates from university, if he wants, he can join the Prodigal Son Fund and become Lao Zhang's right-hand man.
"I'm so envious!"
Tang Yu, who was also invited to the celebration party, was about to cry.
It doesn't matter that Zhang Shuo is so good, but who would have thought that Zhang Shuo's cousin, a primary school girl younger than her, would actually turn around and complete the most gorgeous transformation.
It looks magical.
100 million yuan of wealth, this is money that many people can’t earn even after ten lifetimes of hard work.
But it was easily saved in less than a year.
Compared with Cai Miaomiao, Murong Yan and his like, who were quite proud before, feel ashamed.
"Miaomiao, with such a large amount of money, do you have any plans in the future?" Zhang Shuo asked.
"Not ready yet."
A hint of slyness flashed in Cai Miaomiao's eyes, "I'm going to buy a villa for my parents in Jiangcheng, and I'll live with my aunt and uncle as neighbors. In addition, I'm still studying, and there's no place to spend money."
"oh?"
Zhang Shuo was a little surprised, "Aren't you going to buy yourself a villa or something?"
If I remember correctly.
Cai Miaomiao has always been a money fan, and she envies his villa and mansion every day.
"I think so too, but I'm still in school, so it's not appropriate."
Cai Miaomiao is determined to study hard and make progress every day in the next three years.
"Fine!"
Seeing that Cai Miaomiao had his own ideas, Zhang Shuo certainly wouldn't say anything else.
………
At the celebration banquet, Chen Lu, who was invited to attend, faced Zhang Shuo, an "old acquaintance", but she could not show any strange emotions to avoid being caught.
Only when they were saying goodbye, he gave Zhang Shuo a resentful look.
After all, Zhang Shuo couldn't bear it. After the show, he went around in a circle and secretly went to Xili Building to play poker with Chen Lu all night.
The next day, I was still immersed in the gentle countryside, enjoying the housekeeping services carefully provided by Chen Lu.
period.
Chen Lu took the initiative to talk about the recent investment trends of Fenglei Fund, "Junior, is Beiwang worth investing in?"
"Sadness?"
Zhang Shuo raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, Zhen Yaoting even found Fenglei Fund.
Too.
With the last 15 billion capital injection, Fenglei Fund has long been famous in the industry, and it has successfully bet on Meow Meow Bicycle. Who doesn’t admire Meow Meow Bicycle’s investment vision?
It's normal to be favored by Zhen Yaoting.
Although it is said that the original space and time of Beishi was a thunderstorm in 2017, the two years of 2017 were the most prosperous years of Beishi, especially in the video-related industries, which made the three major video websites breathless.
.
The operation of the entire industry chain of "video website, smart TV, film and television production applications" pioneered by Beishi eventually turned into a tragedy due to the break in the capital chain.
But it's undeniable.
This business model actually has its potential value.
Unfortunately, Zhen Yaoting's appetite was really too big. After achieving initial success in this field, he set his sights on various fields such as mobile phones, new energy vehicles, and sports.
Want to build a super business empire.
In the end, it collapsed due to overestimation of its capabilities and at the most glorious moment.
It's really sad.
It can only be said that Zhen Yaoting did not have the fate of Zhang Shuo, but suffered from Zhang Shuo's disease.
The super business empire that Zhen Yaoting dreamed of building has become a reality in the hands of Zhang Shuo? And it is even more brilliant than Zhen Yaoting expected.
No wonder.
Zhen Yaoting was interviewed by the media once, but he did not hesitate to praise Zhang Shuo, saying that he was a like-minded person.
"You can invest in Beishi, but you can only do it in the short term and not in the long term. You will have to find a way to exit Beishan within three years at most." Zhang Shuo did not stop Fenglei Fund from investing in Beishan.
It might be a wonderful move in the future.
"clear!"
With Zhang Shuo's guidance, Chen Lu immediately became confident.
"By the way, there is one more thing. Miaomiao mentioned it to me last night and said that she hoped to invest 100 million in the Fenglei Fund. How should I reply?"
"oh?"
Zhang Shuo was once again shocked by Cai Miaomiao's operation.
No wonder he said that when he asked Miaomiao yesterday if he wanted to buy a luxury house in Binhai City, Miaomiao kept hesitating and hesitating. He was thinking of this and wanted to hand over the funds to Fenglei Fund for management.
This financial awareness is absolutely top-notch.
Think about it.
Zhang Shuo smiled and said: "Since Miaomiao is interested, just agree."
With Zhang Shuo’s guidance behind the scenes, Fenglei Fund is definitely one of the most promising private equity funds in China and even the world, and Cai Miaomiao’s vision is second to none.
"OK."
Chen Lu has always been able to position herself correctly. Fenglei Fund is Zhang Shuo's fund.
She is just a front-end manager.
………
Day, Monday.
In the new week, the biggest news in the Chinese Internet circle is that Jumei Youpin plans to go public in Hong Kong tomorrow and will soon become another successfully listed e-commerce company.
only.
With the strong rise of Pinxixi, China’s e-commerce field has taken on a new pattern of “one super, two strong”.
Ali, Jingdong, and Pinxixi alone have captured more than 90% of the market share. The living space left for vertical e-commerce companies such as Jumei Youpin is actually very limited.
That's it.
There are also Weipinhui, Shuning, Beishi, etc. following them to grab the food.
Although the great and high-quality products in this life have been blessed by Tenda, Tenda itself is not good at e-commerce, and the only help it can provide is funds and traffic.
At the business level, it may even be a hindrance.
Coupled with the dimming of Tenda's own halo, the capital market is not very optimistic about the prospects of Jumei Youpin, and it is very likely that the stock will be broken upon listing.
Destined to be cannon fodder!
Another piece of news is that Xiaomi announced its entry into the Tianzhu market.
Just yesterday, Rebus, who personally went to Tianzhu to host the launch of Xiaomi 3 in Tianzhu, staged a famous scene that was widely circulated on the Chinese Internet.
But anyway.
Excluding Maili mobile phones that adopt the agency model, Xiaomi can be regarded as the first to try this.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This "pioneering" spirit is still worthy of encouragement.
With Xiaomi taking the lead, Meibao, which has also suffered setbacks in the Chinese local market recently, can't believe that the three major mobile phone manufacturers of OV are also eager to enter the Tianzhu market.
Presumably there will be another battle between dragons and tigers in the future.
Seeing this, Zhang Shuo could only wish these four mobile phone manufacturers good luck. Like Rebus, he must have never heard of such a sentence, called——
"Tianzhu makes money, Tianzhu flowers, I want to take them home!"
Also yesterday.
The second phase of the Mango Super Factory under the Mango Group has been officially completed and mass production of the Mango M1 has begun, which will also usher in the real highlight moment of Mango Auto.
In comparison.
Teshira, which hastily entered the Chinese market, is pre-cooling the market due to its ultra-high pricing.
The number of reservations is very limited!
As a result, Tesla immediately lost its mentality and focused its main energy on the North American market.
After all, it’s only 13 years now.
What is the future prospect of new energy vehicles? Apart from Zhang Shuo, I am afraid no one knows.
Including Lao Ma...
The next week will be uneventful.
The biggest excitement is the money-burning battle for shared bicycles between Nomi Dianping and Ali-Dianping.
After Nomi Dianping completed the acquisition of Meow Meow Bicycle, Ahri, a wealthy company, was not convinced and immediately announced that it would increase its investment by 2 billion in its subsidiary Ali-Dianping.
Don’t be too obvious about the meaning of Nomi’s comments.
Ali, which just completed its listing not long ago, really needs a hearty victory to stabilize its stock price, boost investors' confidence, and prove Ali's development prospects in the local life service industry.
Because the previously ambitious launch of Laiwang, as expected, once again encountered Waterloo.
There are already rumors on the Internet——
When it comes to the e-commerce business, Ali is unable to do anything and invest in nothing.
In recent months, Ahri has made two consecutive investments in Mei Dao in a very short period of time, but failed to save Mei Dao from its decline, which is the best proof.
The uncle was so angry that he went crazy again.
The result is that Ahri got really angry in this subsidy war, and in order to completely overpower Nomidian Ping, he began to invest regardless of the cost.
While increasing subsidies, it is also accelerating the acquisition of other shared bicycle startups.
It’s like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves!
What about Nomi Dianping? Whether it is Tengda or Qiandu, they are certainly not short of money. Taking advantage of the momentum of acquiring Miaomiao Bicycle, they are bound to have a battle with Ahri in Tianwang Mountain.
The result is--
As if overnight, shared bicycles in red and yellow colors have paved the streets and alleys of the city.
Various problems followed. Some consumers left shared bicycles lying around, blocking traffic; others carried shared bicycles home, or even threw them into the river.
There are also people who deliberately damage the locks of shared bicycles.
Suddenly, there are mountains of shared bicycles in many nooks and crannies.
This caused complaints from the citizens.
"Is this the so-called Internet that changes life? It's more like messing up life."
"The so-called high technology is just a garbage dump?"
"The quality of the people is most vividly demonstrated at this moment."
"It's really ironic. Shared bicycles claim to be green and environmentally friendly, but they themselves have become the biggest waste of resources."
Amid the turbulent condemnation, the originally fashionable cycling method seemed to have become less popular overnight and quietly disappeared from the circle of friends.
This is something Ah Li, Tengda and his ilk never expected.
But the arrow is on the string and it has to be launched. Even in the face of various negative public opinions, the two companies can only carry out crisis public relations while continuing to engage in a crazy subsidy war.
At this time, whoever stops first will be defeated.
All the previous investment was wasted.
Even with Tengda's size, he couldn't bear such a huge loss.
All we can do is bear it to the end.
Not to mention, there was already a rift between Ahri and Tengda. They had always been rivals before the birth of Sprout, and they were even more resentful towards each other.
It’s even less likely to give up easily!
In this way, it becomes a vicious circle.
No one can predict it.
Where will this subsidy war, which has obviously gotten out of control, ultimately go?
………
Day, Tuesday.
Zhang Shuo came to the capital and attended the donation ceremony co-hosted by the Ministry of Rites and the Chunmiao Fund, and truly implemented his previous promise of spending tens of billions of dollars every year to support the research and development of basic disciplines.
As soon as the news came out, it was naturally well received by the entire network.
"Look, what is a pattern? This is called a pattern!"
"Compared to Ahri, Tenda only spends money to engage in undoubted involution. What Moya is doing now is the truly meaningful thing. There is so much money to burn, use it to support scientific research, wouldn't it be delicious?
?”
"There is only one sprout in the world!"
"If you throw out these 10 billion yuan, I really don't know how many people will be slapped in the face."
"Just asking, does it hurt?"
"I really hope that Sprout will take over Tenda in a reverse takeover, so that we won't have to worry about it anymore."
"Really, I'll cry to death, the cute king is a breath of fresh air!"
Perhaps also affected by the recent atmosphere of the subsidy war, at the donation ceremony, a reporter bravely asked Zhang Shuo: "Mr. Zhang, can you talk about your views on the recent subsidy war for shared bicycles?"
When the accompanying press officer, Geru Ya, saw this, he had to step forward to smooth things over.
Even a fool knows that this is not a good question. No matter how you answer it, you will offend someone, either Ahri, Tengda, or simply offend consumers.
Totally thankless!
Moreover, Zhang Shuo has absolutely no obligation to answer such a tricky question.
What I didn't expect was.
Zhang Shuo actually signaled to the press officer that there was no need to stop him, because he also realized that he had to speak out at this time and express his attitude to the outside world. This should be regarded as another "warning".
Although this will definitely offend a large number of people.
"First of all, the original intention of sharing bicycles is good."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Bicycle sharing is actually not a new concept or business model. Before Qingcheng Bicycle, there were actually similar public bicycle rental services near parks in various places."
"The only difference is that the emergence of smartphones has made it possible to carry a mobile device with you, making the originally inconvenient bike-sharing model very convenient."
"It's actually that simple."
"This also means that the business model of shared bicycles is destined not to be a very profitable business, and it even has some attributes of a public service."
"The problem now is-"
"Some companies try to package a business that originally only had a profit of one yuan into a business that might have a profit of ten yuan. Then in order to chase that ten yuan profit, they will not hesitate to burn five yuan of costs in the early stage."
"The reason is that the winner takes all!"
"But even if we gain absolute market share, the final result may not be what some people think, because it goes against basic business logic."
"A business with a profit of one yuan can never be converted into ten yuan."
"The result of forcibly improving profit prospects, forcibly packaging, and forcibly burning money, the final solution can only be to completely mess up such a business model and end up with nothing."
"Other than that, I can't think of anything better."
After all, Zhang Shuo saved his last bit of dignity for Ah Li, Tengda and his ilk.
Not named directly.
But the reporters and guests present all understood Zhang Shuo's subtext, but they did not pay attention to such details. Instead, they were attracted by the content of Zhang Shuo's words.
before this.
Everyone just subconsciously feels that there is something wrong with Ahri and Nomi’s crazy way of burning money.
But I couldn't tell what was wrong.
It wasn't until Zhang Shuo's concise and vivid explanation just now that the answer to the mystery was finally revealed, because from the lowest level of business logic, from the root -
Something is wrong with it!!!
"That's right, a one-dollar business can't be turned into a ten-dollar business no matter how you package it."
