Chapter 1471: This time it's blown down


After talking with Sun Tao for a long time, Li Dong urged some words and gave some suggestions. Until noon, the two people ended the topic.
When I went out, I just met Zhang Xiaolong who was preparing to report on the work.
Seeing that Li Dong and Sun Tao had gone out, Zhang Xiaolong couldn't help saying: "Then I will come back in the afternoon."
"No, chat while eating, is it for WeChat?"
Zhang Xiaolong nodded and said: "It's WeChat. We updated the new version on the 3rd, and the new version introduced the PP friend function.
With PP drainage, the effect is very good.
However, because there is no large-scale publicity and promotion, many people actually do not know this software.
Nearly 5 days have passed, and the downloads have reached only 300,000.
You know, the 3rd has begun to import PP friend system, such a result ... "
Zhang Xiaolong couldn't say it anymore. After importing PP friends, there are actually less than 300,000 users, which is too shameful!
In the previous life, when Mi Liao was launched, Xiaomi had almost no foundation.
Even so, Mi Chat has accumulated millions of users in less than three months.
When Teng Xun launched WeChat, it did not use the power of QQ in the early stage, but operated independently. It also accumulated four or five million users within three months.
When WeChat used the power of QQ, it quickly changed the number of users to more than 15 million!
At that time, it was the end of 10 years and the beginning of 11 years.
At that point in the previous life, the development of the mobile terminal was not much different than it is now.
However, now that WeChat has launched, even borrowing the power of PP for the first time, it has only 300,000 users in 5 days.
According to this progress, it is very likely that the first month will not exceed 2 million.
Counting on a base of 2 million, can it really defeat Teng Xun?
Zhang Xiaolong was worried, but Li Dong smiled: "A lot, many people don't even know about this software. In addition, many people are new to smart phones, and they don't even know what smart phones can do.
Wait for them to get used to it, and you do n’t know about chat software?
There are few people in the early stage, and you really want your software to be easy to use in the later stage. It is not uncommon to have millions of users in a day.
Snowball, don't worry.
300,000 today, and 500,000 tomorrow, maybe millions.
Take your time, Teng is quicker and faster, and I do n’t believe they will be able to launch products in ten days, even half a month, is it fast enough?
In half a month, our users reached 1 million, I think it is not a problem.
Accumulated to the end of the month, a month later, accumulated 2 million users, certainly no problem.
Next month, we started to explode. As long as there were 10 million users, Teng Xun would be a dead end. "
Li Dong walked and said, after looking at Zhang Xiaolong said: "You have been a little irritable recently, is it too much pressure on you?"
Zhang Xiaolong exhaled slightly and nodded: "A bit, to be honest, working with you is more stressful than working with Pony."
Li Dong said with a smile: "It's good to get used to it. In fact, I don't want to cause you any pressure. Your own psychological quality is not enough.
At this point, you have to learn from General Yuan.
Look at him, although there is pressure on his mouth, in fact, he still does his own thing, doing his own thing, not knowing how to moisturize.
I am too lazy to take care of this, as long as he does not delay things, he can do whatever he wants.
The degree of freedom I give you is actually quite great.
After completing the tasks I gave to you, I will not care about how you toss about.
The premise is that you have heard it and completed the task.
If you can't complete the task, it is necessary to bear the pressure honestly. "
Several people beside him laughed, but they felt a lot easier.
...
April 6.
Weibo C round of financing reception.
Although the remote party held a financing reception this time, it was not as large as last time. Last time, many outsiders were invited, including some entrepreneurs.
This time differently, the C round of financing, whether it is Li Dong or the investment bank, actually hopes to be able to maintain greater confidentiality.
This is the last round of financing for Weibo. After this round of financing, the valuation of Weibo will affect the market after the listing.
Investment banks investing in Weibo and distant banks investing in Weibo want to make money and maximize profits.
So even before Li Dong shouted a valuation of US $ 7.5 billion, few people came out to refute it.
Even if this goal was not achieved on the spot, and after the announcement of financing of 1 billion US dollars, no one would come forward and say that they could not raise so much money.
This is also a consensus in the industry, and it is related to everyone's interests, so participants will not break through.
It was still some laymen and small investors who really flickered.
...
The financing reception was very low-key, and it was completely different from Li Dong's high-profile announcement of financing 1 billion US dollars.
However, this time there are not many participants.
Big and small, Goldman Sachs, IDG, Credit Suisse, Softbank ... These internationally renowned investment banks have participated.
Domestically, BOC, CICC, CITIC, China Development Bank, Boyu Capital ... A large number of local institutions with strong background and strong capital have also participated.
On the day of the reception, outsiders and those from the investment bank, no outsiders were invited.
Said it was a cocktail party. In fact, as soon as we entered, everyone gathered around and negotiated.
...
Regarding Weibo's C round of financing, the outside world knows almost nothing about it and how effective it is.
And the party just passed the night, the next day, April 7th, the distant place released Weibo financing information.
Weibo C round of financing raised a total of 1 billion US dollars!
Leading investment targets with CDB, some local capital institutions of China Gold, and several major world-renowned investment banks, raised a total of US $ 1 billion, accounting for 13.33% of the total share capital.
Yuanfang still maintains the status of a major shareholder. After the C round of financing, Yuanyuan Holding Group held 34.67% of the shares.
Senior executives and employees of Weibo, plus some senior executives, hold a total of 3.33% of the shares.
Equivalent to the far side, still holding 38% of the shares.
After three rounds of financing, Yuanyuan can still hold a 38% stake, which is not low.
And CDB, China Gold, Bank of China, Baidu ... These local companies have a total shareholding ratio of 13%, which is a very delicate figure.
Of course, most people don't care too much.
In fact, Internet companies can hold more than 30% of the shares, and there will be almost no problems. Even if Li Dong does not introduce state-owned assets, it does not have to worry about the dominance of Weibo.
What's more, Weibo's current grandeur has a lot to do with Li Dong.
Investment banks are not stupid, everyone is here to make money.
I really want to kick Li Dong out, even if Weibo is listed, it will not meet their expectations.
After the listing, kick Li Dong away, and then wait for the stock price to plummet. It is still no good. This kind of unprofitable thing will not be done by ordinary people who are not stupid.
Faraway not only announced these news, but also briefly disclosed the financing of 1 billion US dollars, and the purpose of the money.
This money is mainly used to build global channels.
Today, Weibo has entered many countries and regions, but there are still many places that are not covered.
Whether it is promotion or drainage, a large amount of capital investment is required.
In addition, in China, Weibo will continue to invest heavily.
According to Li Dong's words, that is, within half a year, 1 billion US dollars will be burned out, and Weibo will spend more than 1 billion yuan every month.
When the money is spent, Weibo should be listed!
...
As soon as the news came out, the people concerned at home and abroad were not surprised.
Really raised 1 billion US dollars?
If it is true, it means that after Weibo financing, the valuation has reached 7.5 billion US dollars!
According to the exchange rate at this time, the conversion into RMB is also 50 billion RMB!
The shares held by Yuanfang Holdings are actually Li Dong's personal shares. At this time, the value of Li Dong's personal shares was also nearly 18 billion yuan.
For a time, many envious eyes turned green.
Li Dong used a Weibo, how much benefit did he get in return?
Guomei almost got it through Weibo, although Li Dong still spent a lot of money, but if there was no Weibo, several big and small companies would not exchange shares with him.
In addition to Guomei, Li Dong also obtained a lot of technical support from Baidu.
In addition, these institutions investing in Weibo have always been advocating for Li Dong. It can be said that Li Dong now has such a great reputation in the world, and it is inseparable from these organizations.
In addition, the value of the equity he currently holds is 18 billion. It can be said that Li Dong has turned over on Weibo!
...
As soon as the news was announced, even Xu Shengzhe couldn't help but call and asked, "Really raised $ 1 billion? How much did you overstate this time?"
At this financing reception, Li Dong did not invite people from the Jiangbei business community.
Even Xu Shengzhe, this time it is unclear how much Li Dong has paid.
But 1 billion US dollars, with a total valuation of 7.5 billion US dollars, Xu Shengzhe felt that it must have been false!
Li Dong falsely reported these, not once or twice, but it was difficult for him to guess how high the false height was.
Thinking of Li Dong's just Weibo alone, he made 20 billion yuan, Xu Shengzhe was really jealous.
Is the Internet really so profitable?
Li Dong, the bastard, actually did not make much more than Longhua in retailing.
Even looking purely at profits, his profits in retail haven't been before Long Huaduo.
But Li Dong's current wealth is several times or even dozens of times higher than him!
The source of these wealth is mainly the added value brought by the Internet industry.
In the last Forbes global list, Li Dong ’s wealth was 22 billion US dollars, but the 40 billion US dollars he said was temporarily uncountable.
But even with 22 billion US dollars, there is a net worth of nearly 150 billion yuan.
Among them, the industrial sector accounts for half of the total. According to Xu Shengzhe, it should not exceed 100 billion.
This shows that the value of Li Dong's Internet industry last time exceeded 50 billion.
Last time, last time, Forbes actually did not count many things.
Including some breakthroughs made from afar since 2009, they are not counted.
But how much does Li Dong invest in the Internet industry?
Not to mention, he also used Weibo shares in exchange for a lot of good things, including the side of the mall, and also received Teng Xun ’s 4 billion funds.
This is simply grabbing money!
And now the valuation of Weibo is as high as 7.5 billion US dollars after financing, Li Dong's personal net worth has once again grown a lot, Xu Shengzhe is not jealous, then he is a saint.
In the compound.
Li Dong rubbed his temples and said a little speechlessly: "This time I didn't make a false report. In fact, I was helpless. Before that I let out the big words.
Last time, in order to suppress the old horse, I said that Weibo raised US $ 1 billion, just to blow water.
Who knew he was so stupid, last night everyone went up in price.
A few foreign capitals probably understand what I mean, but they are not reconciled, and they are desperately going up. In the end, good guys, I found out that domestic capital institutions are really rich! "
Li Dong said with a sigh of emotion: "Don't lie to you, several state-owned assets are really rich, and the gap between tens of millions and billions at all does not matter.
In the end, the real financing reached 980 million US dollars.
If I had n’t blown water before, I would have to say $ 1.5 billion for anything.
This is good. I finished it before. Now let's talk about 1.5 billion US dollars. I beat myself in the face. Can I do this?
You said, I was so stupid before, and now I am depressed. "
"real or fake?"
Xu Shengzhe has some doubts, how much money has really been raised?
"Fool you to have a fart!"
Li Dong scolded: "Do you lie to you to give me money? Besides, how much do I finance? What does it have to do with you?
This time the financing is over, and when the money is almost burned, Weibo will prepare for listing in September.
If it goes well, it is likely to be listed around January of 10 years.
Old Xu, I am afraid you will really have to follow me for a lifetime.
According to the current market and popularity, if Weibo is listed alone, if I can maintain about 30% of the shares, this alone will be worth more than 5 billion US dollars.
A Weibo, if you do n’t go public, you wo n’t be able to catch up with me forever.
After being listed, Longhua's current reputation, coupled with the domestic rejection of the real estate industry, is not necessarily more than me.
Hey, you said, how easy is it to make money?
Just get a Weibo, I don't really do anything. You have been fighting for decades in the old Xu family, and I was thrown away. I am a little embarrassed myself. "
"Get out!"
Xu Shengzhe scolded, and there was some pantothenic acid in his heart, and he was going to stimulate Lao Tzu.
Now one by one, I like to compare myself.
That's what the smelly girl of the Hu family is like, Ji Lanxin is like this, and so is Li Dong.
Xu Shengzhe couldn't help saying pantothenic acid to pantothenic acid: "If you entrust the distant city to my trusteeship, and still make a lot of money, I will also make a fortune, Li Dong, really don't consider it?
"Don't think about it, I have to perfect my ecological chain, so you don't have to think about it."
"Don't talk to the calves, the trust does not want you ..."
Xu Shengzhe was a little annoyed and helpless. How could this guy not get in this way?
Li Dong didn't care what he thought, he really couldn't take care of the distant city, lest there would be contradictions in the later stage, and it would be difficult to withdraw at a time.
He didn't have much hostility towards Xu Shengzhe, but he was pitted without guarantee.
It ’s best not to try this kind of thing.
This is the best now. There is not much interest between the two parties, and the exchange of shares will stop here.
Once the far-away city is entrusted, it will not be good for anyone in the future to have something wrong.
Once Longhua has an accident, Yuancheng City will be seized as Longhua ’s assets, or it will not be seized. Being affected by Longhua will also cause great trouble.
Compared with the distance, Longhua's ability to resist risks is much weaker.
The key point is that Xu Shengzhe is ambitious and courageous, and sometimes Li Dong is a little worried.
The Longhua he controlled was not as stable as Xu Jianghua.
This guy likes to take risks. Li Dong didn't want to invest hundreds of billions of distant cities himself, and eventually ruined him.
Feeling Li Dong's firmness, Xu Shengzhe had to let go of this topic.
The two chatted a few more times, and Xu Shengzhe hung up.
...
As soon as the phone hung up, Li Dong shook his head and said, "I don't know if it really stimulated him. This guy has been somewhat unstable recently.
I am a little worried now. There may be some accidents on Longhua's side, and I don't know if I can resist it in the end. "
Shen Qian frowned slightly: "You still have a lot of shares over there, won't it affect you?"
"Not to ..."
Li Dong exhaled and said, "Forget it, no matter him.
This guy likes to take risks, not once or twice. It really takes a lesson.
His old man didn't want to give him the company, but he was also worried about this.
As soon as the incident happened in the Greenland Kindergarten, I knew that this kid was ruthless and more open than me.
Later, he directed and acted himself, forcing his old man to the palace. In fact, it was also very risky. Once Xu Jianghua stalemate, Longhua was in danger.
Let's talk about it, I hope it's okay. At that time, it's really not much of an impact. Let me do some calculations. It can be regarded as a repayment of human relations in these years. "
Xu Shengzhe has cooperated with Li Dong many times in recent years. Li Dong has encountered several crises. Although Xu Shengzhe has made conditions, he has indeed helped Li Dong.
Conditions must be agreed to ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Human relations must also be remembered.
These things, everyone has a measure of their own.
If Li Dong really didn't admit it, Xu Shengzhe would have no choice.
But Li Dong only had to admit his account, and when Xu Shengzhe was in trouble, he could not help.
Seeing him say this, Shen Qian said nothing more.
What's more, it's just Li Dong's own inference now. Although Xu Shengzhe has great ambitions, he is not a brainless person. It may not happen.
Longhua has been operating for many years and has a wider network of contacts than Li Dong. Longhua will not care about the general small risks.
If there is a big risk, Longhua can't bear it, and Li Dong may not be able to follow. With Li Dong's savvy, he will not kill himself for this.
PS: Thank you, Gilbert Hey, for being the 32nd leader of this book. Thank you very much, but I always feel that 40 leaders still have a drama o (╯ □ ╰) o ......
