My Age of Investment

Chapter 767

After completing the acquisition of Kelon and Little Swan in lightning speed, Xia Jingxing suddenly received a call.

The voice of the caller was very anxious, expressing that he wanted him to return to the capital immediately and discuss important matters.

After understanding the situation clearly, without any hesitation, Xia Jingxing handed over the follow-up work related to the acquisition to the accompanying acquisition team, and then he quickly withdrew and returned to the capital.

At his Dongshan villa in Chaoyang Park, he met with Xu Xin, who informed him of the news, and Yao Jinbo, who was making trouble.

Under the crystal pendant crystal lamp, several large sofas are surrounded by a circle, and a coffee table is placed in the middle, with several cups of tea brewed on it, steaming.

However, no one touched the tea on the table, they all sat quietly, the scene was very quiet, and a needle could be heard.

Xia Jingxing put down his crossed legs, and suddenly laughed, "Jin Bo, tell me the truth, what on earth are you thinking? Why did you suddenly change your mind about something you had promised so well?"

Feeling Xia Jingxing's incomparably sharp gaze, Yao Jinbo suddenly felt like a light was shining on his back.

He calmed down and said with a smile: "President Xia, don't be angry. To be honest, this is the answer after careful consideration by me and the team.

It turned out that I was too reckless, I didn't fully consider the team's resistance, and seriously underestimated the difficulty of implementing the plan, which caused you to follow along for nothing. "

Speaking of this, Yao Jinbo bowed his hands, and apologized to Xia Jingxing and Xu Xin, who was beside him with a cold face: "I'm really sorry, I'm sorry to both of you."

Xu Xin said indifferently: "Jin Bo, credit is the foundation for a person to stand in the business world. Do you know what your current behavior is called? Digging your own grave!"

The words were a bit heavy, and Yao Jinbo couldn't hold back his face, and his whole face became extremely red.

However, he could bear it very much, and begged with a sad face: "Mr. Xu, I also have my own difficulties. I can't let those brothers who follow me feel cold."

Xu Xin sneered, "Then you will chill the heart of me, a big shareholder."

Yao Jinbo lowered his head and fell silent.

Xu Xin frowned, his eyes darkened, and he glanced at Xia Jingxing, asking for the opinion of the instigator.

Xia Jingxing thought quickly in his heart.

Before he went to the United States, he gave Xu Xin a task of voting for a certificate.

Xu Xin also followed his instructions. First, she broke up with the Junior First Alliance and separated her family, and then led a group of venture capital institutions that supported her to separate from 58.com.

Things are going well so far, according to plan.

However, problems arose in the planned merger of 58 Tongcheng and Ganji.

Originally, Yao Jinbo was persuaded and agreed to the merger.

Near the critical moment, Yao Jinbo suddenly changed his mind and refused to agree to the merger.

No matter whether Xu Xin threatened or lured him, Yao Jinbo remained unmoved, and put on an appearance that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

If the investment certificate is not submitted, Vision Capital will not accept Capital Today, nor will it open high-quality targets to Capital Today for investment.

Xu Xin knew how realistic Xia Jingxing was.

But she was so forced that she had no choice but to leave the matter to Xia Jingxing, hoping that Xia Jingxing could complete this final touch.

"Jin Bo, if you have any dissatisfaction with the merger plan, you can bring it up."

Xia Jingxing stared at Yao Jinbo, he suspected that the other party was acting and what he was looking for was profit.

Yao Jinbo hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, and said softly, "There is nothing dissatisfied, I know that assembling and merging 58.com is the bottom line."

Xia Jingxing figured it out, the other party wanted to buy Ganji instead.

is it possible?

In this life, Ganji has been online for a few months, coupled with the heavy support of Envision Capital, it has developed rapidly and has been stabilizing 58 in the same city.

It has always been that the strong merge with the weak, and there is no reason for the reverse.

Even if he agrees, Yang Haoyong will make a fuss.

Xia Jingxing felt that it was better to clarify some things, so he said: "Ganji.com's user numbers, revenue and other aspects are better than those of 58.com, and the gap is still widening.

If the competition continues, 58.com has a greater chance of losing.

If you merge 58.com into Ganji.com, you can not only settle a worry, but also earn a lot of money.

I heard that you and your friends co-founded a company called Xueda Education.

If you want to continue to start a business, Mr. Xu and I can also invest in Xueda education to ensure your right to speak in this company. "

Before founding 58.com, Yao Jinbo co-founded Xueda Education with a friend in 2001, but he was the co-founder with less shares than his friend, and he left the company last year.

At present, the development of Xueda education is not bad. Although it has not yet raised funds, relying on the huge profits of the education industry, it has already gone out of the capital, and the branch campus has even opened to Xia Jingxing's hometown Rongcheng.

It is an education stock with great potential.

Yao Jinbo shook his head, "Since I have already left, I will definitely not go back to Xueda."

"If you don't want money, you can replace it all with new shares issued by Ganji.com, and let Yang Haoyong work for you."

Yao Jinbo sighed, "Mr. Xia, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I have made up my mind. No matter what happens in the future, I will treat 58 Tongcheng as my own child."

Xia Jingxing shrugged, "Then have you ever thought that the current market structure is quite unfavorable for 58.com's financing, and I am afraid that few institutions are willing to take risks to invest in you.

Ganji.com was already far ahead of you, but now it has joined the open platform of Hainei.com. In just half a month, it has added millions of new users.

Venture capital has always been more icing on the cake and less charcoal in the snow. "

Yao Jinbo smiled wryly, "Yes, the current financing environment is quite unfriendly to us. But even so, I will try my best."

Xia Jingxing didn't believe Yao Jinbo's nonsense at all, looked at the latter with a smile, and said, "Did Sequoia and IDG promise you something?"

Yao Jinbo's pupils dilated instantly, and his breathing became short of breath.

Immediately, he swallowed, suppressed the violent emotions in his heart, and kept smiling: "Mr. Xia, you are joking. Some time ago, they have transferred all the shares to Capital Today and other shareholders, and they have completely withdrawn from 58.com.

We are completely strangers to several of their institutions. "

Xu Xin also reacted at this time, looking at Yao Jinbo suspiciously, which made the latter feel nervous.

The scene became quiet again, and the three of them were thinking quickly in their hearts.

Xu Xin thought to herself that if the merger of 58 Ganji failed, not only would she not be able to get a free ride from Vision Capital, but as the majority shareholder of 58.com, they would also have to meet with Vision Capital, the majority shareholder behind Ganji.

Whoever benefits the most from this matter is the mastermind behind the scenes.

The answer is already there.

Xia Jingxing was recalling the information from "Kite" a few days ago, that the First-year Union was going to set off a big firework for him.

What is it? Tong Shijie didn't find out.

Now Xia Jingxing is almost certain that the so-called big fireworks are to sabotage the merger plan and prevent them from forming an alliance with Capital Today.

He originally wanted to join the case through 58 to give Zhang Fan and the others some color.

In the end, those people were not stupid, they saw through their scheme so quickly, and they turned against them.

Seeing the glances of the two bosses passing by, Yao Jinbo was very disturbed.

He was originally very unwilling to be annexed and eliminated.

When angel investor Cai Wusheng came to the door as a lobbyist for Sequoia, IDG and other institutions, he was quickly persuaded, agreed to turn against the water, and backstabbed Capital Today.

If the merger plan fails, Xu Xin no longer injects capital into 58.com, or wants to withdraw, both Sequoia and IDG promise to help.

With these supports, he also has the confidence to turn against the water.

It's sad to say that he and 58 Tongcheng have directly become pawns in the battle of capital tycoons, completely unable to control their own destiny.

Xia Jingxing said slowly: "The projects invested by Sequoia and IDG have been constantly defeated in the confrontation with the enterprises invested by Envision Capital.

Are you sure you want to be their cannon fodder against us? "

Cold sweat broke out on Yao Jinbo's head, because he finally realized the danger.

The little tigers invested by Envision Capital have a bad reputation, and they have defeated all opponents steadily.

Even if Sequoia and IDG support 58.com, they may not be able to beat Ganji.com.

A few months ago, didn't they have the support of a large number of venture capital institutions? But it just can't do Ganji.com.

It didn't work before, but now it does?

He knew that his inner obsession was still at work, and he didn't want to bid farewell to the mainstream stage of the Internet too early.

If they were going to the market together, he would have nothing to say.

Xu Xin glanced at Xia Jingxing, who gave her a look.

Xu Xin, who understood his eyes, immediately stood up, pointed at Yao Jinbo who was silent and ashen-faced, and sternly reprimanded: "Jin Bo, why are you so confused!"
