Chapter 77 Long-term considerations

"People in Silicon Valley are crazy. I received dozens of calls from venture capital funds in a short while, and came over to deliver money in a hurry, hoping to kneel down and beg me..."

"Dayou, how many times have I told you? Whenever there is a big deal, don't be excited, just say it slowly." Chen Zhiyang stood in front of the phone with hands-free phone, clenched his fists and coughed twice, interrupting Chen Dayou's mouth without any restraint, and asked: "How much does they value Snapdragon?"

Chen Dayou was extremely excited. After being reminded, he did not change at all. He continued to shout in a very exaggerated tone: "300 million US dollars! At least 300 million! This is just the valuation of Snapdragon International. If it were the entire Snapdragon, there would be no problem with 400 million! Where is Du Qiu? Du Qiu, when will you come to the United States?"

"I'll probably go by the end of August."

"Don't make a rough guess, hurry up and set the specific date, the faster the better! I'm so excited."

"I'll try my best."

After Du Qiu hung up the phone, Liu Yunlai handed a cigarette to Chen Zhiyang and Gu Shoubing and congratulated him: "Congratulations to both of you, you are a hundred times worth overnight. It's a happy congratulations. You must treat you tomorrow."

"Your President Du should be invited to treat you. I work for the public. Principal Chen works for his son. It's nothing. He really got rich overnight, with a net worth of at least over 100 million, and it's US dollars." Gu Shoubing smiled and lit Du Qiu with a cigarette, and said, "Xiao Du, I have to go back to my room to call the provincial leaders and come here later."

"good."

Before coming to Pujiang, no one except Du Qiu knew that Netscape would stage a rare wealth myth in financial history. Therefore, Chen Zhiyang and Gu Shoubing both used Yang Fan's investment intentions as reference. According to Snapdragon's equity ratio, if 10% of the shares were transferred to Lianhe Investment Company for RMB 25 million, Du Qiu was the big one. If they wanted to transfer 6.8% of the shares, the two of them only needed to transfer 3.2%, which was about 8 million.

The cost of this 3.5% shares is very low, and it only cost about 2 million in total. Now it is sold for 8 million. Not only can it make a big profit, but it can also get to know Mr. Jiang, who is very good at future career development. It is a good business that can make sure to make money but not lose money, so the mentality is very relaxed.

But now Snapdragon's valuation has soared 10 times, and 8 million has become 80 million. The situation is completely different. Gu Shoubing has been the general manager of Sanjiang International Trust and Investment Company with assets of more than one billion yuan. All profits in the four years are not 80 million. Provincial State Investment is a state-owned enterprise. The general manager has a tight curse on his head and has no right to handle such a huge transaction, so he must report to relevant leaders.

After Gu Shoubing left, Chen Zhiyang also lost his usual gentle and elegant manners, and he was not indifferent to his emotions. He paced back and forth near the window of the hotel suite, frowned, his face changed. He obviously had a bit of an unbalanced mentality and became worried about gains and losses.

Liu Yunlai and Han Ying sat quietly on the single sofa, one smoking and the other drinking tea. The expression was also excited, but they were both reserved. Now Snapdragon's prospects are promising. The options on their hands are worth a lot in the future, so they are naturally very happy, but the returns are too small compared to the three real shareholders, so they are limited in happiness.

Yang Fan's expression was quite serious. He sat on the sofa opposite Liu Yunlai, holding his fists with both hands, pinching his fingers one by one, making the joints make a light sound, and I don't know what he was thinking.

Among these people in the hotel suite, Du Qiu is the one with the biggest profit after Netscape's successful listing. First, Snapdragon's valuation has soared, and has a net worth of nearly US$200 million on paper. Second, Netscape's stock, which was subscribed for US$22, has increased by more than three times, and the funds in the account have exceeded 10 million US dollars, which is about 1.7 billion yuan. If we refer to the Forbes Global Rich Dragon and Tiger List released in February 1995, he is already the richest man in the mainland, because the Liu Yonghao family, which ranked first on the list, has only RMB 600 million.

In the past few months after the time travel, Du Qiu used the foresight bug to do several major things and became much more psychologically mature. Although the gains were huge this time, they were all numbers on paper, so he still maintained a peaceful mindset, sitting steadily on the sofa opposite the TV, watching TV without saying a word.

The suite was in a short tranquility. Apart from a foreigner on the TV broadcasting financial news in English, there was no other voice. After about two or three minutes, Liu Yunlai threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray and said, "Yang Fan, Lianhe Investment Company was established in September last year. It's less than a year since Snapdragon has increased tenfold. I'm afraid they can't afford 200 million to invest, right?"

"They have the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Pujiang Municipal Government as the backend, and the funds are not a problem." Yang Fan pondered for a few seconds, shook his head unwillingly and said: "But Lianhe is a state-owned enterprise with a relatively rigid system and a conservative management thinking. Snapdragon's current size is too small and its revenue is not stable. It is difficult to pass the program by spending hundreds of millions of dollars to buy 10% of the shares."

"I think so, those officials are not seeking merit, but seeking nothing wrong, and they dare not bet at all, and they don't understand venture capital at all." Liu Yunlai nodded in agreement and sighed: "This deal is going to be broken. It's a pity that if Lianhe and Snapdragon can join forces and complement each other's advantages, they will definitely be able to achieve great success."

At this time, Chen Zhiyang stopped pace, walked to the cabinet, took a bottle of salt soda, unscrewed the lid and took a sip, and said, "It's indeed a pity, but in Shangyan, hundreds of millions of funds are not small, and they must be subject to rules and regulations and cannot be done randomly, otherwise there will be problems and will not be good for anyone."

Du Qiu raised his eyebrows gently when he heard this, and his heart felt relieved.

Chen Zhiyang was thinking about taking a step further in his career. Before coming to Pujiang, he was ready to use money to connect the relationship between Mr. Jiang. Now, this is obvious that he has given up his previous plan and plans to do his best to protect his own economic interests.

Very good, so there will be no worries...

Du Qiu went to the deep mountains and forests to celebrate Lin Jinyan's birthday for two days, and waited for Netscape to come to Pujiang after it was launched. The main purpose was not to worry about losing money and interests, but to draw a clear line with Mr. Jiang and keep a distance, because political struggle is the most dangerous game in the world, the higher the level, the crueler it is. The level of Mr. Jiang's belonging is far beyond his control.

Before traveling through time, Du Qiu rarely paid attention to political events and politicians. Apart from the occasional gossip story that he heard from, he knew almost nothing about Mr. Jiang. If he had too much contact with him and was regarded as a member of the party, there might be unexpected disasters in the future. You must know that he had only traveled through time for 21 years. After 21 years, the domestic situation has changed a lot. Not to mention Mr. Jiang's father, even Mr. Jiang retired. He was only in his 40s, and his life and career were at its peak. He had trillions of assets, and it was difficult to predict whether it was a blessing or a disaster.

As a political novice, Du Qiu rarely considers intrigue. This time he suddenly became aware of the name of Yang Fan's uncle Yang Zhengxiong. He lived in Yuncheng for more than 20 years before traveling through time. He could not remember the name of any mayor. However, after working in Pujiang for two years, he remembered Yang Zhengxiong because he was the mayor of a municipality directly under the central government and failed to become a member of the Central Committee. This is a strange thing that has never happened since the founding of the People's Republic of China. At that time, there were many rumors of high-level struggles, which left a deep impression on him.

So for the long-term consideration, Snapdragon would better refuse investment in refining and maintain independence, but Du Qiu could not use this reason to persuade Chen Zhiyang, because he is already in his 50s, and Chen Dayou is also focused on developing in the United States, and he is likely to immigrate in the future and will not worry about the domestic situation in 20 years.

Besides, in the eyes of people in this time and space, even if Du Qiu is capable, he is still far from Mr. Jiang, and is not on the same level at all. This kind of concern is purely worrying about the world and not knowing that the world is rich.

The Chen family is the founding shareholder of Xiaolong. They have frequent contacts with the Du family and are close. If Chen Zhiyang transfers the shares to Mr. Jiang and takes the initiative to be a white glove, no matter how they are separated, Xiaolong will inevitably be regarded as a vassal of a political force. Therefore, Du Qiu has always been a little worried, and now he has a sigh of relief when he has made the right choice.

As for Gu Shoubing, Du Qiu didn't care much, because the shares he held were scattered during financing, and the ownership was from the Provincial State Investment Corporation. It doesn't matter if state-owned enterprises go around.

"Brother Liu, will the newspaper deadline be up tomorrow?"

"Not yet, but it's almost done." Liu Yunlai raised his hand and looked at his watch, stood up and said, "I wrote a report on the successful launch of Netscape two days ago. You can publish it with just a little change of data. I'm calling Shaojie now and ask her to arrange it?"

"Please trouble Brother Liu, say hello to my sister-in-law." Du Qiu said politely, turned his head to Han Ying and said, "Sister Han, call Zhou Yuan and ask him to prepare some venture capital fund information in Silicon Valley, then fax it and make the momentum full. If Lianhe is willing to invest, we will sit down and have a good talk."

"OK."

"Brother Yang, the situation has changed now. The investment intention we discussed before is definitely not suitable. You and your uncle are relatives. If you tore up and talk again, it is easy to hurt your relationship. Why not avoid it first. We are black-faced at the negotiating table, and you are red-faced in private." Du Qiu leaned forward slightly, looking heart-to-hearted, Yang Fan asked: "What do you think?"

Yang Fan nodded silently and said, "It's good."

At this time, Gu Shoubing finished the phone call, walked back with a big brother, and said, "Du Qiu, Secretary Wang of the Provincial Party Committee wants to talk to you."

Oh, it was so popular overnight...
