Reborn multinational giant

"I don't know how much you know about our company, Mr. Liang. If you know enough, you should know that Huizhong is not considering financing for the time being!" Fang Zhe pondered for a moment and responded to Liang Botao's words.

Liang Botao smiled, and said: "I know, Mr. Fang, you may not be aware of it. Now in Hong Kong and international investment circles, you are saying that Huizhong is a freak. You have gone smoothly all the way. Frustration! This is very rare among Internet companies at home and abroad!"

Fang Zhe listened to what he said, and he was alert, what does it mean to be smooth sailing?Could it be that the two crises that Huizhong encountered in the United States before were all playhouses. Is it not a risk?Hearing what he meant, is it possible that the investment is not successful and you want to make Huizhong some trouble?

Without waiting for Fang Zhe to think more, Liang Botao explained: “Fang, don’t get me wrong. I know that Huizhong has encountered two crises in the United States before, but compared to the large and small ones encountered by other Internet companies during their entrepreneurial period. For small difficulties, Huizhong can indeed be called smooth sailing.

For example, the company we invested in JD.com. Their founders used to repair computers and sell CDs in Zhongguancun, mainland China. They worked offline for five or six years. Until the SARS year, the offline situation was not good. Consider starting the online Internet.

Alibaba, its biggest competitor in mainland China, has a similar experience. These companies have encountered various difficulties during their entrepreneurial period. Many of these difficulties may cause the company to close at any time, including the outbreak of the financial crisis last year. If JD didn't get our money at that time, all their previous efforts might have been wasted!"

When Liang Botao said this, Fang Zhe also understood what he meant. Indeed, compared with companies like bat Jingdong on the mainland, Huizhong’s rise was indeed a bit too simple, too smooth sailing, and the companies they encountered could not get financing. , The problem of not finding a profit model does not exist in Huizhong.

Huizhong has achieved profitability not long after it was founded, and the profit model is very clear. It is to make money by making games, so there is no need to ask grandpa and grandma for financing.

For a company, money can solve more than 90% of the problems, so it is not surprising that Huizhong's development is smooth sailing.

"They have their way, Huizhong has Huizhong's road, and all roads lead to Rome. Some people have ordinary backgrounds, and they may not be able to buy a toilet in Mr. Liang's house for a lifetime. But some people are also born rich and rich. Tens of billions of property are waiting for him to inherit.

Still the words I said before, luck, luck is also part of strength!"Fang Zhe once again attributed Huizhong's smooth sailing to luck. If Fang Zhe was not reborn with good luck, there would be no such achievements of Huizhong.

Is 1% luck more important, or 99% sweat more important?Without that one percent of luck, success will always be one step away!

Liang Botao no longer entangled with Fang Zhe whether Huizhong’s past smooth sailing was luck or something else. Regardless of what it was, Huizhong’s success and unlimited potential were already an indisputable fact. Therefore, he directly threw out conditions to entice Fang Zhe:

"President Fang, it is not convenient for you to disclose the reason why Huizhong is not considering investment for the time being? If the conditions permit, those shares of Jingdong, even if they are given to Huizhong as a meeting gift, can be considered!"

Fang Zhe’s face was calm and he didn’t blink his eyes. Although he was a little surprised by Liang Botao’s willingness to give away JD’s shares, but considering that they want to get the qualifications to invest in Huizhong, JD’s shares are nothing. At most, it's just a stepping stone to $20 million.

"To be honest, our company is not short of money. You should be aware of our company's current profitability. Tens of millions of dollars are not of much significance to us!" Fang Zhe said that Huizhong does not consider financing at this stage. one of the reasons.

Liang Botao chuckled and said: "Sure enough, it is widely rumored in the industry that Huizhong did not raise funds because of its wealth. Now it seems that the rumors are true. However, since we specially invited Mr. Fang to Hong Kong, we will naturally give you Mr. Fang, you are satisfied with the valuation, tens of millions of dollars may not make much sense to your company, but a few hundred million dollars?"

Nowadays, the global economy is sluggish, and the investment industry is also sticking to the money bag for the winter. The investment in the past year or so at home and abroad, not to mention hundreds of millions of dollars, even tens of millions of dollars in financing, is also very few, let alone now Huizhong is at most a round of financing, and the round of financing is hundreds of millions of dollars. Then, when the subsequent BCDEF is even listed, the valuation will have to rise to what point to recover the investment cost.

Therefore, after Liang Botao said this, the old god leaned on the sofa and drank refreshing tea. He believed that it was almost impossible for Fang Zhe to refuse the financing of hundreds of millions of dollars. Fang Zhe said that it is not bad, but it is not. That's a small amount of tens of millions of dollars.

According to what he learned, in order to save costs, Huizhong’s cloud computing data centers built overseas were all remodeled from the old IDC data centers. It can be seen that Huizhong’s financial situation is not as expected. Bad money!

"Hundreds of millions of dollars?" When Fang Zhe heard these words, there was indeed such a small heartbeat in his heart. With Huizhong's current profitability, tens of millions of dollars is indeed not a problem, save one or two. The monthly profit is enough, so the financing of tens of millions of dollars is meaningless to Huizhong.

But hundreds of millions of dollars are not the same. Even with Huizhong’s profitability, it takes a small half year or even a year to have so much cash reserves, even if Huizhong can get some from banks or other financial institutions through asset mortgages. Loans, but at most this amount.

Financing is originally a matter of taking money for time. Hundreds of millions of dollars can indeed fight for Huizhong's competitive advantage for half a year in advance, allowing Fang Zhe and Huizhong to deploy more areas as soon as possible.

"Mr. Liang, what do you think is the right valuation of our company now?" Fang Zhe asked a question bluntly, which already hinted that the other party could be discussed.

The corner of Liang Botao's mouth rose slightly. Sure enough, no one can withstand the temptation of hundreds of millions of dollars, even if Huizhong, who is now hailed by the investment circle as impenetrable, is the same. He did not speak, but turned his head and glanced at sitting on him Li Zhonghua beside him, after receiving his hint, Li Zhonghua said:

"Fang should know that the current economic crisis and the global market recession have caused the stock prices of various companies to shrink a lot from their peak. The three domestic companies, Baidu, Tencent, and Alibaba, are currently estimated to be around 10 to 30 billion US dollars. , So we comprehensively judge the market and analyze the current performance of Huizhong, and the valuation range of Huizhong is between 5 billion and 10 billion US dollars. Of course, the specific valuation requires us to conduct due diligence on your company. Can be given."
