Chapter 830 Hacker Conference (Subscription required
Greentown, hacker group.
Liang Chao is presiding over the meeting, and this time it is about to negotiate the financing of Hacking WeChat and Hacking WeChat.
After receiving Feng Hao’s arrangement, Liang Chao immediately began to consider all aspects, and now he is discussing the plan with the management of the group.
Although Feng Hao has delegated power to him, he does not dare to decide privately. The valuation of WeChat and Weibo, and the amount of financing are not trivial matters.
Of course he wants to raise as much money as possible to give WeChat and Weibo more opportunities to develop, especially overseas.
From Feng Hao’s mouth, he learned the urgency of overseas expansion.
Not only the executives of WeChat and Weibo Zhang Xiaolong and Wang Xinzai, but also Li Guoqing of Hacker Miracle, Li Decai, general manager of Slow Hand, Mu Qingping, minister of finance and personnel, and other deputy general managers.
There are twelve people in total, which is not a small number of people.
Liang Chao stared at everyone and said, “Everyone sitting here is the management of the group, and there will be a period of time when they will be working after the year. This time to call everyone here is actually to discuss an important matter. Brother Hao wants WeChat and WeChat to communicate with each other. Wechat for financing!”
As soon as Liang Chao’s words fell, everyone opened their mouths slightly and their eyes widened, inconceivable.
Hacker WeChat and Hacker Weibo actually want to raise funds, which is a big surprise.
Hacker Group has never been particularly short of money. On the one hand, it has revenue, and on the other hand, Feng Hao keeps pouring money into it.
Wang Xin put away the surprised look on his face, and took the lead to ask, “President Liang, are we really going to raise financing? At present, our development funds should be sufficient, and there is no need for financing, right?”
There are no more than two stages in the financing of enterprises. The first is the start-up stage of the enterprise. The enterprise has no funds for development and has to raise funds. The second is that the company has already fully occupied the market share and cannot expand, and the financing is for the purpose of listing for harvest and realization.
In fact, there are two kinds of hacker miracles. The domestic market share has come to an end, and the listing can be harvested and realized, and many employees have achieved financial freedom.
At the same time, the overseas expansion of Hacker Miracle is in the start-up stage and the funds are limited. With the help of funds, it can be better expanded.
Liang Chao nodded slightly and responded exactly, “Yes, Hacker Wechat and Hacker Weibo will conduct financing. As for the purpose of financing, then expand overseas markets!”
Liang Chao once again threw out a big news, overseas expansion!
Hacker WeChat and Hacker WeChat have also tried to expand overseas before, but the effect is not obvious.
Although WeChat and WeChat are pre-installed on Haotian mobile phones, very few users end up using them.
Now Feng Hao and Liang Chao once again mentioned overseas expansion, which of course surprised them. The competition in the domestic market is intensifying, yet the target is still to be seen in the overseas market.
Two-line battle!
Zhang Xiaolong pondered for a moment, then said solemnly, “President Liang, do you really want to implement it like this? The simultaneous development at home and abroad puts a lot of pressure on us.”
Liang Chao nodded again and replied solemnly, “Yes, this is the result of my discussion with Brother Hao. Overseas expansion is imperative, and so is financing. As for the issue you mentioned, Brother Hao and I have both discussed it. Discuss. To expand overseas markets, the most important thing is capital and talent.”
Zhang Xiaolong agreed, “President Liang involves a lot of things, I’m afraid we need to think about it.”
Liang Chao naturally knows the problem. He explained, “There is actually a reason for being so anxious. Now the world is just in the era of smartphone and mobile Internet, and there are not many related supporting software, especially overseas.”
“But not now, doesn’t mean not in the future!”
“In this case, our hacker group must seize the opportunity to expand overseas and strategically for more markets at this stage.”
The hacker group wants to become a global enterprise, and now is undoubtedly the best opportunity.
In the PC era, North American companies dominated, giving birth to companies such as Microsoft and Google.
In the mobile age, it is currently in a state of vacancy, and if hackers do not seize the opportunity, they may miss the opportunity.
Everyone nodded slightly. It turned out that the hacker group wanted to take the lead in seizing the overseas market.
Taking advantage of the blank stage of overseas markets now, it is definitely a good opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity to develop.
At present, the hacker miracle is expanding overseas and has taken a certain advantage. Hacker WeChat and Hacker WeChat expand at the same time, which may have a good effect.
Zhang Xiaolong understood at this moment, “President Liang, then I understand, it is indeed time to take the opportunity to develop overseas markets.”
Liang Chao looked at Zhang Xiaolong and responded, “Xiaolong, you are right, we will solve it step by step. Take the lead in solving the problems of the valuation of WeChat and Weibo, as well as the funds we raised.”
Expanding domestically and overseas at the same time will naturally encounter many problems, but opportunities are waiting for no one.
But the problem is not insurmountable, money and people are easy to talk about.
Many executives present looked at each other in dismay, thinking in their minds, this is a very important matter.
Valuation!
Financing!
Wang Xin thought for a while, and said slowly, “WeChat is relatively easy to evaluate. This can refer to Penguin’s button, plus the corresponding resources even surpass Penguin Group. As for Weibo, there is no comparable company for the time being. , that can only refer to other portals.”
Liang Chao’s eyes turned to Zhang Xiaolong, the meaning was obvious, it’s your turn to express your opinion.
Both of them are general managers of financing subsidiaries. They have a better understanding of the company’s situation and are more confident about the company’s future.
When Zhang Xiaolong saw this, he thought about it seriously, and finally raised his head and said, “In terms of WeChat, I personally think that we can refer to the company’s Kouchou, but in some aspects, we are more promising. At the same time, we want to expand overseas, and the future is promising. brighter.”
Does Penguin’s button have the prospect of expanding overseas?
I’m afraid everyone here is very clear that the penguin’s button has no such ability.
After all, the software MSN imitated by Penguin still occupies a huge market share overseas. Penguin, as a latecomer and a replicator, has no ability to compete at all.
Liang Chao looked at the answers of the two and nodded slightly, “What you two said is quite reasonable. Wechat is compared with Penguin, and Weibo is compared with several portals. What do you think the approximate valuation is? ”
He smiled and stared at the two with a smile and asked.
Wang Xin and Zhang Xiaolong looked at each other, and then seriously estimated that it was hard to say.
Wang Xin thought about various data in his mind, the current number of users of Weibo, the number of users in the future, the possibility of revenue and so on.
At the same time, he calculates how popular it is overseas and whether it can be replicated.
These have to be taken into account, current data, future prospects and so on.
He finally said solemnly, “President Liang, and everyone here, I will briefly express my humble opinion. Hacker Weibo currently has more than 300 million users, and it will expand to 8.9 billion in China in the future. There is no problem at all. Reference The web memory portal has a total of 200 million users and a market value of more than 10 billion.”
“It can be seen that hackers can be valued at 24 billion domestically, plus the brand effect of hackers, overseas prospects, etc., hacker Weibo can be valued at 32 billion.”
After evaluating various aspects, Wang Xin probably came to this kind of valuation, which he personally thinks is more reasonable.
After listening to the rest of the executives, they all felt that Wang Xin’s words made sense.
Liang Chao frowned, the valuation was slightly lower, but not too outrageous.
Then he wanted to hear what Zhang Xiaolong meant, “Xiaolong, what do you mean here?”
Wang Xin frowned when he heard that Liang Chao did not immediately judge his answer. Is his valuation unreasonable?
Zhang Xiaolong is also constantly comparing and evaluating the differences between Penguin and Hacker Weibo, as well as the market value.
He looked at the crowd and said solemnly, “Hacker WeChat is estimated to be worth about 35 billion. As for why it is so valued, I will tell you the reason. Penguin Group currently has a total of 480 million users, and its estimated value is 480 million. More than 90 billion. But their revenue is mainly from games, and games contribute about half of the net profit.”
“Hacking WeChat has a total of nearly 300 million users, but the current revenue is very weak, and even half of the deduction has not been achieved. So, based on the above, my estimate is 35 billion for the time being.”
There is no doubt that the prospect of hacking WeChat is better than that of hacking Weibo, and its liquidity is strong.
Even if WeChat has fewer users than Weibo, the valuation is slightly higher than Weibo.
Liang Chao’s brows are even more frowned now. The valuation method of the two is not too problematic, but it is slightly lower than he expected.
He currently does not know the valuation given by Feng Hao, but for him, hacking WeChat is at least 40 billion, and hacking Weibo is 38 billion.
He looked at everyone and said solemnly, “The general managers of the two subsidiaries’ estimates are quite good, but slightly lower. WeChat and Weibo are particularly promising companies, especially in overseas markets. Our words this time, It will probably take 10% of the shares of the two subsidiaries for financing.”
The financing amount is around 4 billion, and the equity transfer is not particularly large.
In fact, Feng Hao has become more and more aware that money needs to be earned by everyone, and sometimes it has to be done.
For this financing, he intends to introduce some investment banks and institutions with state-owned assets. At the same time, some overseas investment banks were introduced, such as North America and Europe.
Everyone heard the words and looked at each other, not knowing how to respond for the time being.
The amount of financing is not too small, and the sale of shares is not too small, this is 10%!
From financing to listing, Hacker Miracle did not sell a lot of equity, and it is still mostly controlled by the group, even in the hands of Brother Hao.
Mu Qingping pondered for a moment and said, “President Liang, did Brother Hao mean the same thing?”
Mu Qingping is the Personnel Director and Chief Financial Officer of the Group Headquarters. She has a lot of power and is a department with real power.
Of course, Mu Qingping is definitely an old employee of Hackers. She joined Hackers not long after Hackers was founded.
She can be said to be a veteran of hackers. From an unknown small business at the time, she has accompanied hackers to grow step by step.
Not only is the company growing, but she is also the same personally. From a financial officer, she has continued to learn and improve, and she has grown to be in charge of the two major departments of the entire hacker group.
The personnel department and the finance department are both extremely important departments.
But Liang Chao and Feng Hao were very relieved to hand over to Mu Qingping, which shows the ability of this woman in her thirties.
Seeing this, Liang Chao nodded, “Brother Hao has nothing to say for the time being, but that’s probably what it means, so what do you think?”
Everyone shook their heads. Since neither Feng Hao nor Liang Chao had much opinion, neither did they.
In the general direction, basically these two have the final say, and they are more about execution.
Liang Chao continued, “Then the next step is the specific implementation. Next, there will be a financing conference to call investment banks and institutions around the world.”
“Wang Xin, Xiaolong, your two tasks are to preside over this speech, to tell the situation of your respective companies, and to better show the company’s style.”
Since the valuation is almost the same, it is the specific financing task.
Liang Chao intends to let the two people cooperate with the financing negotiation and introduce the company’s situation.
Of course, he has to put in a lot of energy, be responsible for all-round things, and coordinate the entire resources.
Wang Xin and Zhang Xiaolong nodded slightly and responded solemnly, “President, we have no problem, we will do it well.”
Liang Chao urged, “Give a plan as soon as possible, and then I will let Brother Hao take a look.”
The two agreed again, “Okay, let’s implement it as soon as possible and get the copy out.”
When they heard that Feng Hao was going to take a look, the whole person’s face became more solemn. Brother Hao paid great attention to the whole details.
In fact, when they faced Feng Hao, the pressure was not small.
Liang Chao thought about it, in addition to financing, overseas layout is equally important.
The relevant plans should be implemented from now on, and we cannot wait until the funds are in hand before considering how to implement them.
He looked solemn, looked at everyone, and said solemnly, “Except for this matter, that is overseas expansion. The hacker miracle has already taken place, and it is still expanding overseas.”
“Then, I’m afraid it will be hacker WeChat and hacker Weibo. You can refer to hacker miracles as appropriate, and also use localization to take root in the market as soon as possible.”
“In addition to these subsidiaries, hackers can’t be left behind. The preparations are well prepared. If conditions are available overseas, they can even develop overseas.”
