Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 436
From the evening of December 12th to the evening of the 26st, for five full days, Fang Zhuo spent almost all of his energy on media interviews.

Different from domestic media, he needs to pay attention to the accuracy of his words when facing foreign media, and also avoid pitfalls set by some reporters intentionally or unintentionally.

This kind of small confrontation between the interviewer and the interviewee gave Fang Zhuo a headache, and it made him feel better when he read the official information.

On the last night of December 2003, which was also the eve of Yike's listing, Fang Zhuo put on his pre-interview make-up in the hotel suite, and spared time to meet Ni Runfeng who had greeted him.

Coincidentally, Xiong Xiaoge also visited to chat about tomorrow's listing.

The make-up artist was putting the last process on the face of the young president. Xiong Xiaoge felt very novel watching this scene. He sat down on the sofa after half a circle, and picked up the documents on the coffee table.

——China Data Broadcasting, a company listed on the Hong Kong GEM under the name of Ji Longfen, is only an empty shell, and the current stock price is less than 2 Hong Kong dollars.

——Even if this kind of stock has a book value, it is not recognized by the capital market. The GEM company has strict restrictions on the main business injected, and the company is entangled in lawsuits, so its value as a shell company is also very limited.

——In addition, China Data Broadcasting has a great risk of suspension.

——APEX’s headquarters in Ontario, California has office buildings and a huge warehouse, all of which are mainly leased, and the trademark under its name does not have much value because of industry reputation.

——According to the evaluation of the credit agency Dun & Bradstreet, APEX has high risks.

"Hey, old bear."

Xiong Xiaoge was looking at it seriously, when he was called out suddenly, he subconsciously put down the file with a jump in his heart.

"It's okay, let's see. It's just some evaluation. Changhong is going to go through legal procedures." Fang Zhuo poured a cup of tea for the old bear.

Xiong Xiaoge nodded slightly and asked, "Is it worthless to co-author this company? Is the listed company under his name worthless?"

"As a distributor, what is the value of paying in arrears?" Fang Zhuo said with a smile, "The warehouse is rented, the goods in the warehouse are obtained through IOUs, the terminal is from Wal-Mart, and the company's funds may come from the financial side. Yes, um, it can be regarded as self-made, but the risk is very high, and there are always some means in this season, but the pattern is not big."

Xiong Xiaoge concentrated: "How to say?"

"He didn't dare to face the matter. Old Ni came all the way from China, and he avoided seeing him. How could he do such a thing." Fang Zhuo shook his head and said, "Don't say anything else, let's just say that when we were at the beginning, you gathered a group of People come to the company to look for me, do I avoid it? I don’t even dare to face difficult problems, so how do I do things?”

Xiong Xiaoge thought to himself, that's why you're so fucking ready.

However, he changed his mind again, and he must have been prepared for the behavior of the APEX company's manager Ji, but he still avoided Mr. Ni, which was indeed almost a situation.

Before he could speak, Ni Runfeng knocked on the door and came in.

I haven't seen Xiong Xiaoge for a few days, and I feel that this person's face is more sad.

He quickly took the documents on the table into his hands, for fear of being seen the information inside.

"Old Ni, how are you?" Fang Zhuo greeted generously and poured a cup of tea for the chairman.

"Hey, I'm going to formally go through legal procedures to sue APEX. The address Yike found through Wal-Mart a few days ago was empty, but thank you, Mr. Fang." Ni Runfeng said distressedly, "Lawyer Martin said he was confident of winning the lawsuit, but I’m afraid it will take more than a year to win the case.”

Fang Zhuo looked straight at Ni Runfeng: "Is there going to be trouble in the country?"

Ni Runfeng was silent for a while, then said: "President Fang, to be honest, it's really troublesome."

He continued hesitantly, "I'm here, I'm considering whether to go back..."

Fang Zhuo frowned and interrupted: "Old Ni, you are too pessimistic, this is definitely not a good choice."

Xiong Xiaoge also heard what the head of Changhong meant.

But he didn't say anything, and just watched Mr. Fang's earnest persuasion for 10 minutes, domestic public opinion situation, economic center of gravity, enterprise development evaluation and other aspects of multi-dimensional persuasion.

Anyway, there is one meaning, the situation is not that bad, you old Ni has to go back.

Xiong Xiaoge couldn't help laughing at the end. He felt that if Mr. Fang made it clear that he would give real help, it would definitely directly boost Mr. Ni's confidence. Now Mr. Ni may be too discouraged because of the frustration of finding APEX's Mr. Ji.

Finally, Ni Runfeng dispelled the thought that suddenly came from the bottom of his heart, and congratulated again: "Mr. Fang, Yike will be listed tomorrow. I'm really sorry to come here today to disturb you."

"It's okay, Lao Ni, we are all from China, and we don't know each other well here in New York, so we can't help each other." Fang Zhuo shook his head, "Don't worry, I will urge him more at Martin's place, Wal-Mart On the one hand, I also let the company try to contact to see if there is a good solution.”

"Old Ni, what are you going to do now?"

"It is to return to China to maintain control over Changhong, and to continue to lead Changhong forward."

"Take the example I met, Duan Yongji of Sina, think about it, what will he think after I drive him away from Sina? The more prosperous Sina is, the lower the evaluation of his role in Sina's development will be."

"You have worked in Changhong for decades, are you willing to be poked in the back in the future?"

Fang Zhuo said righteously: "The old man has a long-term ambition. Old Ni, you will have a chance if you fight. If you don't fight, you won't even have a chance."

Ni Runfeng fell into deep thought.

At this time, the assistant knocked on the door to remind me that the interview time was up.

"Old Ni, talk to Lao Xiong. He sees the situation better than I do. I still have interviews." Fang Zhuo glanced at Xiong Xiaoge.

Xiong Xiaoge saw the situation clearly in an instant, Mr. Fang needed Mr. Ni to go back and control Changhong.

After a few seconds, Fang Zhuo left the room.

Xiong Xiaoge and Ni Runfeng had a chat about business, ethics, competition, and development.

He is very fortunate that he is still relatively good at this aspect.

Ni Runfeng is also very fortunate to meet such two industry leaders during this trip to New York.

……

美国时间2004年1月1号，上午8点钟，京城时间晚上8点。

Su Wei received a call from New York in the company office. It was from Mr. Fang, and the background sound was very noisy.

"Hey, hey, Mr. Fang, you haven't started yet, have you?"

"No, Miss Su, wait a minute."

The background sound gradually quieted down.

"There is still an hour and a half before the opening of Nasdaq." Fang Zhuo said, "Are you nervous?"

"Where do I need to be nervous, it must be because of your nervousness at the scene." Su Wei laughed, even though she was refreshing the news in real time in the office.

"I'm okay, but I don't know what to say later, oh yes, I called to tell you about something I've been thinking about for the past two days." Fang Zhuo talked about the purpose, "Let Yike set up a game department in China, You look at the point to recruit talents, and the salary can be higher."

"Huh? The game department?" Su Wei pondered for a while, "Like Sina? Thinking about introducing foreign games?"

"Yes, Sina's game department is considered from the perspective of stock price and market value. Now that Yike is going public, I think I can't treat myself badly. Therefore, there is a piece of business that can be done together, and it can also stimulate the stock prices of the two companies. Kill two birds with one stone. .” Fang Zhuo explained.

Su Wei understood and knew what to do.

She thought about it and asked: "Poach people, right? Can you poach people from Sina?"

Fang Zhuo seldom hesitated for two seconds on such a matter, and said euphemistically: "A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and there is competition to develop, and brothers and companies must achieve each other and make progress together."

"Okay, I understand. Remember to take more photos on the spot and send them over, especially those who ring the bell." Su Wei is still more concerned about this matter.

"Don't worry, today's energy is fully charged, we, Yike, must make a good start on the first day of listing this year." Fang Zhuo said confidently.

Today Yike is listed, Goldman Sachs' "buy" rating is about to move, IDG and Deutsche Bank are ready to pull up, DCM has already called friends, media and newspapers have all bought drafts, and everything is ready.
