Rewrite the Technological Landscape

On September 2, 2001, Meng Qian began to settle accounts again.

Meng Qian first gave He Wenkang 100 million of the previous 180 million, and the remaining 80 million was spent on the continued expansion of enrollment and the investment of various project teams.

Then, two and a half months later, the available funds on the company's books reached another 180 million.

Games are real money

It feels that in the early 21st century, it is really difficult to find Internet products that are more profitable than games, and this may be one of the very few industries that has continued to make money from the early 21st century until 2019.

Other industries are up and down, only games are making more and more money

The company that Meng Qian is going to interview today is also a company that was rescued by the game.

NetEase, one of the ancient Big Three.

As for why Meng Qian wanted to get in touch with NetEase, or more precisely, why he wanted to get in touch with the ancient Big Three, of course it was because, in 2001, the three companies were at their worst.

Don't take advantage of it at this time, let alone when.

Since NetEase went public in 2000, its stock has been falling all the way, and the company's business has been deteriorating. The Internet winter has the greatest impact on China, and nothing is more important than portal websites. After all, the bubble of portal websites was the biggest at that time.

None of the three major portals was spared. NetEase’s stock price fell to as low as 0.51 yuan, a drop of more than 90%, just over a month ago on July 26.

As for now, the stock price is only 0.6 million yuan, and trading will be suspended in two days.

So since the beginning of 2001, NetEase has been doing one thing, asking someone to buy it, but looking at the stock price trend in the United States and seeing the failure of domestic business, no one wants to buy NetEase at this time.

Naturally, Meng Qian seriously considered whether to buy NetEase before, but NetEase will be so valuable in the future because he did well in the entertainment sector later on. In 2001, Meng Qian bought NetEase, except for some employees, and nothing else.

Portal website, it was a loss when you bought it back then, and if Meng Qian wanted to build a portal website, he could build one by himself, there is no need to spend money to buy it, and if it is for the game team that has not improved yet, then there is no need up.

Therefore, the acquisition of Netease at this moment has little meaning for Meng Qian, but what about keeping Netease?

Netease made its fortune by relying on turn-based online games, and turn-based online games happen to be something that Dafeng Kechuang has not been involved in. Therefore, if Netease is allowed to continue to develop, he may be able to continue the future of his previous life.

And what Meng Qian can get is the shares of NetEase

In this way, first of all, one more company can enter the game industry and entertainment industry together. After all, Meng Qian has always hoped that more companies will enter various fields to drive domestic development.

Secondly, Meng Qian can make a lot of money from NetEase.

Meng Qian came to Yangcheng and came to Netease headquarters.

At this time, NetEase is facing fraud, and the stock is about to be suspended. This is the time when the entire company is worthless.

"Hello Mr. Meng." Ding Sanshi greeted Meng Qian personally.

"Hello, Mr. Ding." Although he came here as the God of Wealth, Meng Qian maintained the humility and politeness that he should have.

After a few simple greetings, Meng Qian got straight to the point, "Mr. Ding, let's take a look at the Game Development Center now."

The first thing Meng Qian has to do is to determine whether NetEase is making "A Chinese Journey to the West" or whether it is a turn-based online game. Because of his appearance, how much history has been changed on NetEase.

After all, Meng Qian has not formally acquired them, and everyone is essentially a competitor now. Ding Sanshi is always secretive about the development of the game, but Meng Qian understands that what they are doing is a turn-based online game.

This reassured Meng Qian a little. If Netease learns "Biography of God", it is likely to die.

In fact, it is not entirely true to say that NetEase was rescued by games.

The reason why I am right is because if there is no "Journey to the West 2", NetEase might be really cool, at least there should be no explosion in later generations. The reason why I am not completely right is that I have to look at the situation of NetEase at this time.

NetEase seems to be fully supported by "A Chinese Journey to the West 2", but in fact, NetEase's success is inseparable from its foundation at the time. NetEase has nearly 60 million yuan in cash and only more than 10 million in debt. But there are less than 20 million. This account data is so beautiful.

So Meng Qian didn't look for NetEase before, just hoping that it wouldn't affect his game development. After all, no matter how good the foundation is, without games, NetEase can't save him at this time. It's September now, and the time is almost up.

Of course, Meng Qian went to buy NetEase shares first.

Now the entire market value of NetEase is less than 20 million. He started buying in August, and he has already absorbed 10 million shares of NetEase, with an average price of less than 0.7 yuan. But Meng Qian can't buy any more, since all the stocks in the market are in his hands, how can the stocks go up?

According to NetEase's previous explosive ability, two years later, his stock price will be 70 yuan.

A full hundred times.

After the Internet crisis in the United States passed, it took five years for the stock market in the United States to more than double. This is the case for the stocks of most American companies. not on.

But NetEase, the former Nasdaq monster stock, has 100 times the investment income in 2 years, Meng Qian likes it!

10 million in, 1 billion out!

The only pity now is that NetEase's market value is less than 20 million. If it can have a market value of 200 million, Meng Qian will really post it.

But the premise of everything is that Meng Qian will help NetEase to launch the game smoothly. The success of the game and Netease's own foundation can give him the opportunity to continue to become a demon stock in this life.

This is why Ding Sanshi welcomes Meng Qian's shareholding so much.

For Ding Sanshi, besides the money Meng Qian can bring, the more important point is that he is currently betting his future on the game, but he has no experience in game operation, while Meng Qian is very experienced.

Come out of the game development department and go straight into the conference room to start negotiations.

"Does Ding have any doubts about the valuation letter sent to Mr. Ding two days ago?" Meng Qian asked straight to the point.

"We made some simple modifications." Ding Sanshi handed a document to Meng Qian, "In the valuation of the SMS business, we feel that we may be a little underestimated."

At this time, if the valuation book discussed by Meng Qian and Ding Sanshi was released to later generations, no one would dare to imagine it.

Netease, which has a market value of more than 30 billion yuan in later generations, is now valued at less than 300 million yuan.

And Ding Sanshi is now arguing with Meng Qian, only a few million.

Meng Qian couldn't help sighing in his heart, "This world is really amazing."

"Just according to your valuation." Meng Qian didn't want to deduct the millions, "but I want 55% of the shares."

Shunfeng's acquisition will be oppressive when it comes up. This is what Xiao Boshi told Meng Qian, "You can go through the AB share agreement. I don't care about the company, I just want to make money."

"Mr. Meng, the shares we plan to sell are not that many." Ding Sanshi was a little confused. Dafeng Technology is indeed a lifeline for NetEase now, but when Meng Qian proposed a cooperative acquisition instead of a direct acquisition, Ding Sanshi saw it The hope of rebirth, and when he saw the hope of rebirth, he didn't want to give too many shares.

Man, that's how realistic it is.

"Mr. Ding, I will give you a penny for a lot of acquisitions, and it can also bring NetEase full coverage of channel resources. The management right is still in your hands, isn't it too much?"

The coverage of channel resources mentioned by Meng Qian refers to the game operation experience that Ding Sanshi lacks the most.

Back then, "A Chinese Journey to the West 1" failed. The game itself was one aspect, and the operation was a very important reason, so Netease later represented a Koryo game "Spirit".

"Elf" was not successful, but it helped NetEase to establish channel resources, which led to the success of "Journey to the West 2".

But in this life, Meng Qian has disabled Goryeo Games. Looking at the miserable situation of domestic game agents, no one would consider acting as a Goryeo game agent anymore.

So for NetEase, which needs operational assistance, who else is more powerful than Dafeng Kechuang's channel resources.

Dafeng Kechuang now has the channel resources, agency resources, Internet cafe resources, and publicity resources of the game

"30%, I can lower the valuation." Ding Sanshi quickly weighed and said.

"Does Boss Ding care so much about this share?" Meng Qian asked with a smile.

"The main reason is that I don't have so many shares myself. A lot of shares are in the hands of other shareholders, and they won't take them out."

"I believe you ghost." Meng Qian said in his heart, they wished to dump the shares of NetEase quickly, "That's it, 45%, 150 million."

Ding Sanshi frowned subconsciously. Meng Qian didn't mention AB shares this time. If it wasn't for AB shares, he would definitely not be able to give 45% of the shares. Of course, it was also to put pressure on Ding Sanshi.

"Mr. Meng, we really can't afford so many shares now." Ding Sanshi began to sell miserably, and asked the accountant to pretend to do the calculations for a while, and then looked at the results given by the accountant and said, "How about this, Mr. Meng, 37% Shares, 1 to 100 million, AB shares."

Meng Qian also pretended to be entangled for a long time, arguing with Ding Sanshi for a while, and finally pretended to give in to Ding Sanshi because of various understandings, "Well, 39%, I will not be less than the resources that should be paid, but If you want to buy AB shares, lower the price a bit."

Seeing that Meng Qian finally let go after holding on for so long, Ding Sanshi naturally had to give in a little more, "That's 90 million."

"Eighty million." Meng Qian pointed to the financial and legal affairs around him. I don't like to talk back and forth for money. I just brought the financial and legal affairs here today. I just hope that the matter can be finalized directly, and everyone can start directly. work.

In the end, according to China's price negotiation practice, 85 million yuan was sold.

A discount of almost 40 million yuan for an AB share is absolutely worthwhile for Meng Qian, because not only does he not need to manage NetEase, he can't even manage it. After the former NetEase was revived through the game, it began to be out of control. tidy.

That's because they have their own development strategies and methods. Once they intervene, it will be over.

But after all, I am a butterfly effect, and it will definitely have a certain impact. No one can be sure how NetEase will go in this life.

But it's okay to bet 80 million. No matter how bad NetEase is in this life, it won't let me completely lose the 80 million.

If he doesn't have the courage to gamble at all, he is not Meng Qian.

Moreover, Meng Qian believed in NetEase in his heart, because judging from the development of the three major portals in later generations, as long as he survived the most difficult year of 2001, even the worst Sohu would have a market value of several billion yuan.

This is why a lean camel is bigger than a horse. The three major portals have caught up with the earliest outlets. They have deposited some things that are invisible on the surface, such as the earliest Internet resources, such as the earliest national resources, such as the earliest Internet credibility. .

And these things became many more meaningful things after the three major portals came alive.

Such as NetEase, Sohu, and Sina.

A powerful network of relationships.

So after the acquisition of Netease ended, Meng Qian went directly to Yanjing by plane.

This September, Meng Qian's goal is not NetEase, but the three major portals!

He wants to have the best opportunity to enter the three major sects, plus Ying Haiwei, who Meng Qian has already entered, as long as the three major sects survive 2001, as long as the three major sects can maintain even half of the achievements of later generations.

Later, I will slowly enter several other Internet companies.

Meng Qian will be able to have a super resource network that is unmatched in China's Internet industry, and it is crazy to hear.
