Chapter 76 Equity Planning
Xu Liang originally thought that the negotiation with Samsung SDS would be very troublesome. After all, the other party's business was so big that they didn't need money.
But beyond his expectation, just two days later, Dalmore called and said that the negotiation was completed.
Xu Liang rushed to the South Korean branch office of Damo with doubts, and everything went smoothly.
After signing the contract, the people from Samsung SDS left without even saying a few polite words.
It’s as if Naver’s equity is garbage.
In fact, Xu Liang forgot one thing. Not everyone has a long-term vision, and not everyone knows the future of the Internet as well as he does.
The madness of the Nasdaq crisis has scared off global capital.
It's too awful.
As of now, the Nasdaq has fallen from the highest point of 5,200 points to 1,735 points, and it is still falling.
No one knows when the end will be.
America Online, Yahoo, Amazon, eBay, Netscape and other Internet companies that were once world-famous are all laying off employees on a large scale and are trapped in a wave of bankruptcy.
Almost all economists around the world are talking down the Internet.
in this case.
Naver is a treasure in his eyes, but in the eyes of large companies like Samsung SDS, it is garbage that they are eager to get rid of. They can recover their costs and make a lot of money, which is enough for them to explain to their bosses.
The acquired Xu Liang and Hongyan Fund were stupid in their eyes.
You may be laughing at someone behind your back.
Xu Liang, who had successfully obtained the loan, already had sufficient funds. After paying US$550,000 to Morgan Stanley, he already owned 38% of the Naver shares, but he was still far from a controlling shareholder.
But he didn't rush Jin Yingquan.
In addition to going to work at Hongmeng Games Korea every day, watching the progress of "Millennium" and "Legend of Legend 2", while handling domestic affairs through conference calls, I study Korean at night, review high school courses, and prepare for next year's college entrance examination.
In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.
In a Korean-speaking environment, Xu Liang's Korean speaking ability has greatly improved, and some basic daily expressions are no longer a problem.
"Jingle Bell…."
As the phone rang, Sun Mingzhen ran over quickly.
Now she has become Xu Liang's full-time secretary.
"President, this is Jin Yingquan's phone number."
Xu Liang took it.
"Is it Mr. Jin? I'm Xu Liang."
"Hello, Mr. Xu, I am Jin Yingquan. I have already completed the things I promised you before. When is it convenient for us to sign the contract?"
"It's still the same place, just tonight."
"OK."
After saying 'goodbye', Xu Liang hung up the phone.
"Go to Han Fei's Courtyard to reserve a seat. Once you've made the reservation, call Jin Yingquan to inform him."
"Okay, President."
With a promise, Sun Mingzhen deliberately bent down while taking the phone.
The V-shaped collar instantly reveals unlimited scenery.
Although the time is not long, it is enough for people to see everything at a glance.
Looking at the figure who got up and left quickly, Xu Liang smiled and thought to himself.
"He actually went into battle in a vacuum. It seems like he was really willing to risk everything."
After leaving the office, the moment the door closed, Sun Mingzhen's legs felt weak and her heart beat like a drum. There was a complexity of breaking through taboos.
After graduating from the best university in South Korea two years ago, although she is as beautiful as a flower, she has an arrogant personality and disdains the idea of charming her boss as a way to get ahead.
There is also zero tolerance for sexual harassment.
But two years of working life and the cruelty of society have smoothed her edges.
"Compared to those dirty old men, the president is at least young, handsome and rich."
After comforting myself, I returned to my desk, sat down, calmed down and started working.
It's night time soon.
It's still the private room in Han Feiyuan.
Jin Yingquan was sitting opposite, and next to him was a thin, middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses and a thin face.
"Mr. Xu, this is my friend Fan Zhixing. He is willing to sell you 8% of Naver's equity for US$65,000." Jin Yingquan said first.
And he specifically emphasized the $65,000.
Xu Liang smiled faintly, he only wanted equity, and he didn't care about the rest.
"Mr. Fan, are you sure you want to sell Naver's equity to us?" Xu Liang asked.
Fan Zhixing nodded quickly.
During the recent period, Nasdaq has been falling continuously, with its market value losing two-thirds, and there is no sign of recovery in sight.
Listed Internet companies went bankrupt one after another.
There are even more that are not on the market.
Naver is just a small company that hasn't really made a profit yet, and it might go bankrupt one day.
If this is the case, the $20,000 you invested will be lost.
So during this period, he was always worried, fearing that Naver would go bankrupt.
It's not easy for someone to come to buy it, so there's no reason to refuse.
Moreover, the profit of US$65,000 has more than tripled, which is not too small.
Giving Sun Mingzhen a look, the latter quickly took out the prepared contract and handed it over.
Fan Zhixing read it carefully and found that there was no problem before picking up the pen on the table.
Just as he was about to sign, he suddenly stopped.
A feeling of reluctance rose from the bottom of my heart.
I originally expected to make a lot of money after going public and reach the pinnacle of life.
Unexpectedly, a Nasdaq crisis interrupted all his dreams.
"Is there any problem with Mr. Fan?" Xu Liang asked.
"No, it's nothing."
Fan Zhixing calmed down and signed his name on it.
At this moment when the dust settled, an inexplicable sense of relief suddenly appeared in my body.
The previous reluctance was relieved.
Looking at the short and thin man in front of him, Xu Liang clearly felt that Fan Zhixing was much simpler than the slippery Jin Yingquan. More like a simple technician than a businessman.
According to the information provided by the business research company, when he was at Naver, he also served as the chief of the technical section, a position similar to that of a CTO.
"Where is Mr. Fan employed now?"
"Higher position?" Fan Zhixing showed a wry smile on his face, "Nasdaq crisis, all Internet companies are laying off employees, where else would any company want me?"
"Mr. Fan, leave your phone number. If my friend has a suitable job, I will introduce him to you."
"Thank you, thank you Mr. Xu."
Fan Zhixing was grateful and quickly handed over his business card.
Jin Yingquan next to him looked a little jealous, as he didn't get such treatment in the first place.
But he is not a man like Fan Ji-sung who only has codes in his head. After leaving Naver, he quickly found a better job at Samsung SDS.
Besides American Dad, is there any better job in South Korea than at Samsung?
After receiving the business card.
"I want to ask you two something. When Che Baogen joined the company at the same time as you, and they were alumni, the relationship should have been closer. Why was he drawn by Li Haizhen to oppose your financing plan?" Xu Liang asked.
Jin Yingquan's face instantly showed anger, and he still can't let go of this incident.
