Chapter 88 Everyone is happy
Negotiations with Baidu have been carried out smoothly. In addition to Tang Hui, Huang Qianyi, who is in charge of finance, has also been sent over.
Zhang Bo, the manager of the personnel department with a strong sense of responsibility, believes that at such a momentous moment as the merger of the two companies, many problems in personnel will also be involved, so he followed suit.
Suddenly, Lin Feng became the most idle existence again.
But comforting the old lady has become the most important thing these days.
Seeing Lin Li’s call again, Lin Feng smiled bitterly.
“Xiao Feng, I still think you left too much money.”
Lin Feng didn’t know that this was the first time he heard Lin Li say this.
“For a villa of more than 5 million, you have to buy a piece of furniture for 500,000!”
“But, it won’t cost 2 million.” Lin Li has been struggling with this matter.
Lin Feng persuaded earnestly, “Didn’t I ask you to get a driver’s license and buy a car for the remaining money? In this way, you won’t have to squeeze the bus to and from get off work.
Besides, with a car, isn’t it convenient when I bring my parents to Kyoto after a while? ”
After trying to persuade Lin Li, Lin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Convincing an old lady is much more difficult than convincing an opponent in a business negotiation.
Thinking of negotiation, Lin Feng couldn’t help thinking of his old friend and rival Zhou Hongyi.
I don’t know how the negotiations between 3721 and Yahoo are going.
Zhou Hongyi is very similar to Lin Feng in this regard, and he is also not used to negotiating the kind of work that pays on the spot and pays back the money on the spot, which is an extreme test of patience.
Therefore, Zhou Hongyi’s negotiation with Yahoo was simply handed over to a company located in Hong Kong, and Wang Gongquan of IDG was responsible for the follow-up.
After two months of tug of war, 3721’s negotiation with Yahoo is finally coming to an end.
The two investment institutions, IDG and both, were ready to cash out, but Zhou Hongyi stayed under the persuasion of Yang Jieyuan.
The transaction price of 3721 was finally fixed at $120 million, of which $20 million was a gambling agreement between Yahoo and the original 3721 team.
This part will be replaced by a part of Yahoo Huaxia’s shares, and these shares will only be put in place when Zhou Hongyi continues to lead Yahoo Huaxia to complete Yang Jieyuan’s target tasks.
But this is nothing to Zhou Hongyi.
If with Yahoo’s technology, he can’t fight a turnaround, then he might just buy a piece of tofu and kill him.
In this way, Zhou Hongyi finally agreed to Yahoo’s conditions after careful consideration.
Although Zhou Hongyi is about to complete the transition from 3721’s biological father to Yahoo China’s professional manager, he feels that his 3721 is just a name change. As long as 3721 is still in his arms, he is still him. 3721 is the same 3721.
The location of the signing was set at Yahoo Holdings (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd., Room 2802, Sunning Building, No. 10 Hysan Road, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong. The signing ceremony was held in secret according to Zhou Hongyi’s intention.
Zhou Hongyi and his wife Hu Huan boarded a flight to Hong Kong one morning.
Although Zhou Hongyi was full of expectations for Yahoo’s cooperation, for some reason, the moment he boarded the plane, he suddenly became concerned about gains and losses again.
His wife Hu Huan held his sweaty hand the whole time.
Some things, you will never know your heart until you really face a choice.
Although Zhou Hongyi has already experienced such a decision once, each time it is a torment for him.
Yahoo attaches great importance to this signing. Although Jerry Yang did not come in person, John-, Senior Vice President of Yahoo, Guan Zhongyuan, Vice President and Managing Director of Yahoo North Asia, and Lu Dawei, Vice President of Internet Business in North Asia, attended in person. rushed to the scene.
Yahoo’s attention did not make Zhou Hongyi happy. On the contrary, this solemn atmosphere made him feel an inexplicable sadness.
Although he knew that entrusting 3721 to Yahoo was the best choice, he was still a little reluctant in his heart.
The signing ceremony began, and Yahoo executives and investors such as Wang Gongquan showed genuine smiles on their faces.
It’s a win-win situation, and it’s a happy ending.
Zhou Hong wore a faint smile, but his smile seemed a bit blunt and far-fetched.
“Be happy.” Hu Huan gently shook Zhou Hongyi’s hand.
Feeling the warmth in her hands, Zhou Hongyi nodded slightly.
The signing ceremony was carried out one by one, and soon it was the last moment for Zhou Hongyi and John to sign.
Zhou Hongyi slowly walked up to the signing stage and took the heavy signature pen handed over by Wang Gongquan.
Zhou Hongyi looked down, looking at the pair of eyes full of anticipation.
“This is a picture everyone is happy to see.” Zhou Hongyi thought silently.
Under John’s watch, Zhou Hongyi quickly signed his name.
After Zhou Hongyi signed with John, the era of 3721 completely bid farewell.
There was a burst of applause around, and some people even cheered violently.
“Congratulations.” Wang Gongquan stepped forward with a smile and hugged Zhou Hongyi.
IDG profited several times in this transaction, and Wang Gongquan was also able to retire.
Zhou Hongyi has also become a new billionaire, and he will also become the controller of an even larger Internet group.
Both seem to have gotten the happy ending.
Zhou Hongyi patted Wang Gongquan’s shoulder lightly, but said nothing.
“I’ve prepared a champagne party. Let’s celebrate this great moment together later.” John, senior vice president of Yahoo, said when he came to Zhou Hongyi.
Zhou Hongyi was stunned for a moment, then slowly shook his head.
For some reason, a deep sense of tiredness filled his body.
Right now, he just wanted to get a good night’s sleep.
Zhou Hongyi declined John’s kindness, then slowly came to his wife Hu Huan’s side and held her hand.
“For some reason, I feel that my heart is empty.” Zhou Hongyi said softly, like a child who was wronged and confided to his mother.
“It’s all over and tomorrow will be a fresh start.”
Hu Huan’s eyes lit up~www.readmtl.com~ then stepped forward and hugged each other tightly.
……
This moment, without the limelight, without the champagne to celebrate, seems to be a moment for both sides to regard as their own victory.
Zhou Hongyi, on the other hand, was like an outsider, watching helplessly as her child married to a foreign country.
“Mom drop a dick.”
Zhou Hongyi scolded Sheng Niang in a low voice, but he didn’t know what he was going to scold.
The news that 3721 was acquired by Yahoo was quickly disclosed by the media, and it also caused a huge sensation in the Chinese Internet community.
The transaction value of 120 million was also called a “sky-high price” by the media, because this price exceeded the market value of most listed companies.
People have both praise and criticism for Zhou Hongyi’s choice, but in any case, the era of 3721 will eventually cease to exist, and the next round of the Internet will also be reshaped.
