259. Gambling

Monday, South Zhen.

Ma Huateng, who had just started working, received a call from Goldman Sachs.

"Good morning, Mr. Ma."

Ma Huateng, “Good morning.”

The other party continued, "Mr. Ma, I called you today to explain some of the matters of the option agreement you signed with the bank. The related matters will not be implemented until the end of March and early April, but you need to be notified in advance."

"You say, I'll listen."

"As such a Mr. Ma. The agreement you signed with the Bank in March 2009 is a profit-locking strategy. The execution object set for the agreement is the shares of Penguin Group you own, with an execution price of HK$67.8. In terms of quantity, the total number of Penguin Group shares involved in the conversion at the end of this month is 2 million shares. In April, you also have four contract agreements to be executed. Please be aware of this."

Ma Huateng responded in a low voice, "I understand."

The other party continued, "We will inform your personal financial assistant about related matters, you only need to submit information according to his instructions."

"OK, thanks."

After hanging up the phone, Ma Huateng shook his head slightly.

It’s not that he forgot about this matter, but he didn’t put it in a very important position.

According to the agreement he signed with the other party two years ago, he will sell two million Penguin shares to Goldman Sachs at a single share price of HK$67.8 in the form of over-the-counter trading.

What is Penguin’s stock price today? It’s not far from HK$200. The discount is nearly 30% off.

This almost means that every time MCAT hand over a share, it will lose hundreds of Hong Kong dollars.

As for this transaction contract, he signed a total of five shares in 2009, totaling 10 million shares, accounting for about 1.1% of the shares issued by Penguin.

If the entire transaction is over, M Huateng will probably "lose" HK$1.3 billion.

It may be a lie to say that you don’t care about money, but there is no need to doubt that once the news of this batch of stock transactions is out of the market at the end of the month, it will inevitably be interpreted by others.

"Oh, Mr. Ma was so unfavorable to his penguin as early as 2009, so hedged at a high level early. As a result, he suffered a loss to his grandma's house."

Such evaluations should not be missing, Ma Huateng thought.

Of course, according to his own operations and ideas, it is better to say that this is a "valuation adjustment" in his mind than saying that he was a bet back then.

In 2009, no one would have expected that the mobile Internet would begin today, and even in 2010, they would have been very ignorant.

Until the scarf comes and the WeChat message comes.

Maybe this is the reason why I "underestimated" Penguin, or maybe I just underestimated the future.

Moving on the trajectory of 2009, the price given by Goldman Sachs is ideal enough, and M Huateng himself can earn an option fee.

From now on, it is really hard to say. At least the outside world seems to be a loss-making algorithm.

"Well. I should sign another copy in a while."

Ma Huateng thought to himself.

Just imagine, if Penguin’s stock price is far below HK$67.8 this year, M Huateng himself can indeed make greater profits through this contract, but if this is true, it means that the Penguin business will decline.

Perhaps this result is no one wins.

It is called a bet without winning or losing, or it is essentially just a tool for valuation adjustment.

After calming down, Ma Huateng continued to work at his desk again.

I have to say that Lu Zhou gave him too much shock, and the excitement was also higher than the other.

The future has not yet arrived? It has always been like this, he thought.

With only one move on WeChat, Penguin was in a hurry to deal with it. After catching up for nearly half a year, it has not yet ended. I thought that putting QQ resources into WeChat could kill everyone, but the fact is not the case.

It should be said that this is not much different from the result of QQ attracting penguin scarves. In a sense, today's WeChat news is no different from last year's Xinlang scarves. The momentum has already risen, and penguins can only become chasers.

But after all, penguins are not young children. Ma Huateng has experienced many years of storms and storms.

It is something that is unfamiliar with. As long as it is willing, there is no reason not to interfere.

Opponent? Then strangle it step by step.

Penguin is a veteran of marathons.

After thinking about it, Ma Huateng said to his assistant, "Let Xiao Chen come up and report on Penguin Cloud's work progress."

What should come, what should be done is to slap in the face. It’s nothing more than saying last year that cloud computing will not be so easy to implement. Ma Huateng himself doesn’t mind this so-called slap in the face.

Since Lu Zhou can make Meng Guyun and even Ma Yun is so optimistic, he has no reason to refuse.

......

Capital.

Since the end of 3Q, Zhou Hongyi has been in the limelight.

Even in the court, Qihoo is really unsure of winning.

But after the war, he Zhou Hongyi and Qihu made a name for himself, which was enough. Even if it was a bit of a bad reputation, it would be considered a bit of a bad reputation.

In the middle of this month, Zhou Hongyi will start Qihoo's road show in various places. Now the PPT that his subordinates have made for him has a well-known name, "China's Facebook", "the third largest user scale in China"...

Zhou Hongyi looked like she was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai and groping on the corners of the sofa.

According to valuation pricing, Qihoo's financing scale for this round of listing can reach US$200 million. As for Zhou Hongyi's own shares, his value is at least US$1 billion.

Of course, compared to the nothingness of personal wealth, he values ​​development after getting the money.

A search for what he personally thinks is the ultimate goal of Qihoo.

It can be said that around the whole story of 3q, he was more passively counterattacked by the sudden rise of the penguin. Although outsiders don’t think so, Zhou Hongyi himself did this.

If it weren't for Penguin's security housekeeper's affairs, Qihoo might have been able to snipe Qiandu earlier. And if Lu Zhou had not taken the lead to the mobile terminal, Qihoo might have been able to draw more funds.

Originally, he wanted to win over Lao Li, the penguin among them, and the road boat was a secret.

Of course, it’s no problem to go public and get rich.

This is naturally a mobile channel that Luzhou currently does.

At present, although the listing has not been completed, the internal business has been re-planned by Zhou Hongyi, with only two focuss: one search business line and one mobile channel.

Luzhou’s Menggu advertisement is very stable? No, it may not be at least not in Zhou Hongyi’s eyes.

This year and next year, this place should be a hot land, and anyone wants to come in and get a share of the pie.

Especially after he had communicated with Rebs for a long time, he became increasingly determined to move.

Rebs' Kingsoft Network has taken a stolen step, leaving only Zhou, who is busy with 3q behind, himself.

He couldn't swallow this.

Not to mention the new and old hatreds between you and Luzhou.

"When it's time to go public, I'll kill you for a piece of armor."

Zhou Hongyi grabbed the pen in her hand and signed the "bet" submitted by her subordinates.
Chapter completed!
