"Mr. Su, the activity of our users has dropped by 20%. If this continues, all of our users will be poached."
In Su Wang's office, Gao Tingting looked anxious, but in just over two months, the company was in crisis.
Yes, the number of users has not declined, and is even growing, but this increase is nothing compared to the base number. Take WeChat as an example, with 500 million users, tens of thousands of users are added every day, which is actually considered
One retreated.
Between Tencent and Alibaba, or to be more precise, behind the Nanguo Group, these two companies used the most rogue and unsolvable money tactics, just like the way Su Wang developed Meituan and WeChat in the beginning.
If other companies use this tactic, Su Wang is not afraid at all, because under the premise that WeChat and Meituan have already established their dominance, it is difficult to shake WeChat's position with money tactics, except for Tencent.
Tencent itself has QQ, which is a big killer. Now it has launched cash red envelopes for downloading QQ communication, daily sign-in and chat, and lottery activities, which will naturally attract a large number of users. This is also the reason why WeChat activity will decline.
If the activity drops by 20%, it is equivalent to a loss of almost 20%, and in % it is a very scary number, almost reaching 100 million.
"These people are so hateful. They have already subsidized tens of billions of dollars, just to deal with us, and they don't even care about their own interests."
Gao Tingting's face was full of anger. According to her investigation, Tencent spent at least more than 10 billion in the past two months, which is more than 10 billion in real money.
Even though the market value of many listed companies is tens of billions or hundreds of billions, it is almost difficult for these companies to come up with tens of billions of cash. They may only have a billion in cash at most. Those acquisitions that cost billions or tens of billions at a time, rely on
The funds and shares are pledged to bank loans.
But this time, Tencent spent tens of billions of real money, and only in this way can such a good effect be achieved, and Alibaba's subsidies for Alipay are also similar.
"Mr. Su, aren't they afraid that we will compete with them, and then everyone will be in trouble?"
Gao Tingting is a little confused. Her boss, Mr. Su, is famous in the Internet for daring to burn money. Aren't Tencent and Alibaba afraid of burning out the company's capital chain?
"They dare to do this because they know our situation in their hearts."
Su Wang shook his head. Tencent and Alibaba knew that they could no longer raise capital domestically, and the money spent from selling shares in Kaixin.com and Fanfou.com was far behind what Nanguo Group invested.
"These users are too heartless. They use our free products and then turn around and invest in the other party."
Hearing Gao Tingting's complaints, Su Wang smiled dumbly. In the Internet industry, I believe no one can trust users. Users in the Internet industry are the least loyal, at least most of them are.
If users in the Internet industry were loyal, then newer companies would not need to develop at all, because all users would have been taken away by established companies.
For users, whose products are easy to use and can bring them greater benefits, then they are willing to use them. Tencent is willing to give them cash subsidies, plus they can use QQ to chat.
, how could they not be willing.
The most powerful trick of Tencent is that not only do you get cash red envelopes for downloading software, but you also get rewards for chatting and adding friends every day. In this way, users can stay here instead of just getting a download red envelope and then leaving after receiving the red envelope.
.
"You go out first and let me think about it."
"good."
Gao Tingting looked at her boss with some worry, but she also knew that she could not help at this time. She could only give her boss time to think quietly.
The door was closed and Su Wang frowned. Yes, he was indeed pushed to the edge by the Ye family. All the money from selling the shares had been invested. Now the only thing he could use was
That’s two bucks.
One investment came from foreign ins. The development trajectory of ins was the same as in history. It was acquired by Facebook. However, Su Wang did not choose to take the money and leave. Instead, he chose to exchange shares for shares and exchanged them for ins shares.
1% of Facebook shares.
Facebook acquired ins last year. In this life, because of Su Wang’s advice, ins became much more popular than in the previous life. In the end, facebook was acquired for 2 billion US dollars, and facebook’s original market value was 180 billion.
Around USD.
In just one year, Facebook's market value has reached 230 billion U.S. dollars, which means that Su Wang's 1% share is worth 2.3 billion U.S. dollars, which is equivalent to more than 10 billion RMB.
In addition to this amount of money, there is another amount of money, which is Apple’s agency rights. With Apple’s current popularity in the country, the value of this agency is also very high. Su Wang and Apple still have three years of cooperation, and each year alone
The revenue gained by Apple is no less than one billion.
This is his only source of cash now.
But Su Wang knew very well that even with the injection of these two funds, with the financial resources of Alibaba, Tencent, and most importantly, Nanguo Group, this money could only be delayed for a while.
This time the competition is no longer a commercial competition in the traditional sense. It is a life and death battle.
Just like LeTV, the final result ended with Jia Yueting's bankruptcy, and the Ye family also went for this result.
“Sell Meituan, Sutang Technology, and keep WeChat and WeChat Pay?”
Su Wang held a pen in his finger and wrote on the blank paper on the table. At this point, he had no choice but to break his arms. The company's current capital chain cannot support the simultaneous development of so many companies.
Meituan has established its dominance and is slowly entering the profit stage, so selling Meituan is the best way to recover cash flow because the price is high.
WeChat and WePay are fundamental, and Su Wang will never abandon them.
Just as Su Wang was making a decision, his cell phone rang, and the caller's number was Wang Kaige's.
"Brother Wang, how does it feel to take up a new official position abroad?"
There was a smile in Su Wang's words, and Wang Kaige on the other end of the phone sounded equally relaxed and said: "Su Wang, let me tell you some good news. There is a financial institution willing to finance you."
"Finance me?"
"Yes, what the other party means is that you can package and integrate all the companies into one company, and then you yourself will serve as the legal person of the group, and the other party will finance your company group."
"Only 30% of my shares in Meituan are left and cannot be merged. The same is true for Sutang Film and Television. They have all gone through one or two rounds of financing."
Su Wang shook his head. How can a merger be so simple? Meituan and Sutang Technology have developed to this point and have gone through several rounds of financing. The shares are already very complicated and it is impossible to merge them into their own group. Even now
If you want to inject funds into Meituan and Sutang Film and Television, you need to pass a board meeting resolution.
Of course, the major shareholder of Meituan and Xutang Technology is still Su Wang, and the management is also Su Wang's. Generally, financing is not difficult to pass as long as Su Wang agrees, but other shareholders know that the financing is to make the company better.
Just because you don't object does not mean that you can take the company back.
"Then ignore these two companies for now, merge everything else that can be merged together, and then make a financial statement and let the investment institutions there determine the amount of financing."
Hearing Wang Kaige's words, Su Wang was a little confused and asked curiously: "Brother Wang, are you sure the other party will invest?"
"Don't worry about this. I can make an appointment for you when the time comes and you can talk face to face. But what I want to tell you, Su Wang, is that this investor's strength is not weaker than that of Nanguo Group. It's just that he has not developed domestically. If
If he is really willing to fully finance you, there is really no need to be afraid of Nanguo Group."
"Foreign investors."
Su Wang tapped his fingers on the table a few times. Although he was somewhat repelled by foreign capital, just like the choice Alibaba made, he could no longer get financing domestically.
"The day after tomorrow, you tell me the location."
"Okay, then I will inform the other party that the location will be over Xiangjiang, which is convenient for both of you."
"That's no problem. By the way, you haven't told me the identity of the other party yet."
After Su Wang asked this question, Wang Kaige on the other end of the phone hesitated for a moment, and then said slightly mysteriously: "You will know when you get there."
"It's still a lie. Okay, I'll see you then."
Su Wang did not continue to ask further questions because he believed that Wang Kaige would not harm him. It is no exaggeration to say that if it were not for Wang Kaige, his career would not develop so smoothly.
After hanging up Wang Kaige's call, Su Wang started to call Gao Tingting. He wanted to integrate all his industries. Gao Yuanyuan knew these things best. To be honest, he invested a lot. He didn't know how many shares he held in some companies.
clear.
…
Three days later, Su Wang set foot on the road to Xiangjiang. After arriving in Xiangjiang, he arrived at a certain star hotel in Xiangjiang according to the place agreed by Wang Kaige, where Wang Kaige had already been waiting.
"Go and check in first. After that, I will take you to meet the financier."
"Um."
Su Wang nodded, checked in at the front desk, put down his luggage when he got to the room, and then followed Wang Kaige towards the top floor of the hotel.
"The top three floors of this hotel are exclusive floors for hotel diamond members. Only Marriott Black Diamond members can enter. Marriott has only issued about 300 Black Diamond members around the world."
"So rare?" Su Wang was a little surprised.
"Yes, everyone is very influential in a certain area. It is impossible for a part-time job like me, but I hope that if you, the big boss, apply, I will definitely pass it."
Wang Kaige smiled and explained to Su Wang. Su Wang curled his lips. He didn't dare to be interested in these things. So what if he had one more card and one less card? At his level, to put it mildly, he was staying in a hotel.
