After finalizing the investment in New York real estate, Zhang Yang gave Will to follow up regardless of the follow-up operation. In fact, he is not good at business negotiation or something.
In the beginning, he used more money to invest in some industries that he was optimistic about. Many people estimated that they called others silly and had more money behind them. However, judging from the current rate of return, many people began to call Zhang Yang an investment genius.
For example, the Amazon he invested in before, now the stock price has risen to more than eighty dollars, and the total market value exceeds 40 billion dollars. This is still because the market fell in the past two years, causing Amazon's stock price to fall, otherwise it will definitely be higher.
During this time, Blu-ray Investment did not increase its shareholdings in Amazon. Will, as Zhang Yang’s shareholder representative and director stationed in Amazon, naturally knew the potential of Amazon.
The initial investment has risen nearly ten times. In the next ten years, it will continue to rise more than ten times, or even twenty times.
These days, Bezos is also in New York, investigating a business, just finished today, and came to Zhang Yang to chat.
……
"Zhang, why don't you have time to visit the Amazon headquarters? You are the representative of the company's major shareholder, and the shareholding ratio is higher than mine." Bezos handed a red wine from his hand to Zhang Yang and changed The shoes said with a smile.
"The Amazon has you in charge, what's wrong with me? I was optimistic about your talents before I invested in Amazon. Now it seems that my original decision was very wise." Zhang Yang opened the red wine, poured it into the decanter and put it To the coffee table.
On the coffee table, there are only a few snacks, dried fruits, etc., which are used as snacks, and there is no one else in the room.
"With your shareholding, Amazon will have more sufficient funds to develop better. In the past two years, Amazon has expanded rapidly, and we have entered the European and Asian markets."
Bezos was a little proud. Many Internet companies before the millennium were bankrupt. Only a few of them could survive, and the price online was comparable to their Amazon. Others were either merged or acquired. Half dead.
survived a crisis, does not mean that it can survive many crises. Internet companies are burning money, and not all Internet companies have so many investors willing to continue to inject capital.
Like Amazon, it started to make profit in 2004, but it didn't start to give shareholders a small amount of dividends until the previous year. During this period, many investors also changed.
Some people think that Amazon has reached the end, and it is likely to become a bubble. I don’t know when it will burst, so I have already made money and hurried away.
Some people think that Amazon still has potential, so they buy from others and want to hold it for a long time.
Of course, some of them were forced to sell Amazon’s stock because of the lack of funds in the previous two years when the subprime crisis broke out. Now some companies have survived the crisis and want to repurchase Amazon’s stock, but they find that the price is not only high. No one wants to sell yet.
"You are developing well, maybe in another ten years, you can also become the world's top rich man. But I heard that your development in China is far less than expected?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.
"Chapter, this is what I want to tell you. I heard that China has a C2C Internet company called Alibaba, and it also has your investment? Do you seem to be a major shareholder?"
"Yeah, it seems that you are now a competitor." Zhang Yang smiled at Bezos, not just Ali, I also invested in a variety of Internet business companies such as B2C, C2B, B2B, etc., and can make a lot of money in the future .
looks like Amazon is much stronger, but like Ali, even in the previous life, it is also the world's top company, because they have Alipay and Ant Financial.
"Mr. Zhang, why don't you help and talk about it? I want to talk to Ali Yun's Ma Yun and incorporate Ali into Amazon." Bezos finally expressed his intention.
If this can be achieved, it will win a large market with a population of more than one billion people, and it will definitely make Amazon’s business even better. Even within a few years, the market value will surge several times and become a Big Mac Group. .
"Do you want to swallow Ali? Ambitious is not small, but do you have enough money?" Zhang Yang asked.
"I can issue additional stock financing, and now there are too many financial institutions willing to invest in our Amazon. One or two billion US dollars, I am confident to raise." Bezos looked confident.
Only in this way, his equity will be diluted, but he will find ways to ensure his voting rights.
In particular, Zhang Dong seems unwilling to manage the company and feels troubled, but he is willing. As long as Zhang Dong supports him, his seat will be absolutely stable, and the company will develop rapidly according to his ideas.
"One hundred or twenty billion dollars, a lot? Since you know that Alibaba has my investment, I am still a major shareholder. Why do you think I will support your merger?"
"What do you pay for stocks, nothing more than increase my ordinary shares in Amazon, the voting rights will not increase much. If it is a merger, I can also consider."
Mergers and acquisitions look similar, but in fact they are very different. M&A is mainly based on Amazon. Alibaba will become a subsidiary of Amazon.
and merger is the combination of the two companies, just like Chaowei Eagle Weida, so as to ensure that Zhang Yang has a higher share of equity and has more say.
Although Alibaba’s valuation is far inferior to that of Amazon at this time, but want to sell it for $12 billion or so~EbookFREE.me~ Ma Yun agrees, Zhang Yang disagrees.
Bezos suddenly thought of Chaowei Eagle Weida, originally two companies, Zhang Yang held shares, and later merged, Zhang Yang became a major shareholder, and now he became the chairman of Chaowei Eagle Weida, behind the scenes Of people in power.
If Amazon merged with Ali, would he still be seated? Will the company have only one CEO? Will there be one more co-CEO? Even he was replaced?
"Zhang Dong, M&A is better for the development of Amazon. Amazon has more members and a more mature model."
Chapter Yang shook his head: "Have you thought about what Amazon will face if the merger succeeds? Antitrust investigation!"
It was just this sentence that made Bezos silent.
At the time, Microsoft was almost split by this investigation, not to mention that Amazon had no such background strength at this time.
M&A is unlikely to be realized, and China’s political axe will not agree.
Bezos sighed: "I understand. Then I can only choose to buy some shopping sites in Europe and other regions, so as to expand the company's business scale."
The company still has money, and the pace of expansion cannot stop. If China's road doesn't work, it's Europe. Sooner or later, Amazon will grow into a giant business group!
