Chapter 338 The Penguin Becomes a Shareholder

After Lin Feng left General Company, he didn't go back to the hotel where he stayed, but took a taxi to Penguin Company.

Led by a young and beautiful young lady, Lin Feng soon met Penguin's boss Ma.

"Brother, you just came to the company for inspection today?" Boss Ma received a report from the front desk in advance that Lin Feng had come, so he was already waiting at the door of the office.

"Brother, you are joking, Penguin Company has you watching, so I am at ease." Lin Feng and Papa Ma held hands and said with a joking smile.

The two stood at the door and chatted for a few words, and then Boss Ma took Lin Feng to sit on the sofa.

"Brother, it's a coincidence that you came back here. A friend brought me some famous coffee from South America, just for you to try."

While Boss Ma was talking to Lin Feng, he took out a small bag of coffee from an iron box under the coffee table.

"It seems that this coffee is really good, and the aroma alone makes people intoxicated."

When Boss Ma was making coffee, Lin Feng could smell the aroma of coffee. It was a bit different from what he usually drank in coffee shops. What was the difference, Lin Feng, a layman, did not understand.

Boss Ma put a cup of brewed coffee in front of Lin Feng with a smile on his face.

"The coffee beans used this time are not the best. When I get better coffee beans in the future, I will ask my brother to taste them."

The two drank coffee with each other while chatting about interesting things in their lives.

"I saw my brother's righteous deed at Yangcheng Railway Station on the news before, and my brother was really moved at that time."

The two were chatting, and Boss Ma brought up the topic of Lin Feng's incident at Yangcheng Railway Station.

"Brother is serious, I just did what I thought I should do." Lin Feng put down the coffee in his hand, and looked at Boss Ma with a silly smile on his face.

"My brother said this is really good. In fact, my brother also wanted to help them at the time, but it was difficult to buy so many supplies at that time even if he had money." When Boss Ma said this, he glanced at He glanced at Lin Feng, but there was nothing unusual on Lin Feng's face, "I heard that my brother has already delivered supplies from Sichuan to Yangcheng half a month in advance?"

Lin Feng looked at Boss Ma, although there was no change in his eyes, but he was thinking quickly about what he meant by these words.

"Brother was joking, it was just a coincidence."

"At the beginning, when I saw the weather was getting colder and colder, I thought I could take this opportunity to make a fortune, so I transported some materials from Sichuan to Yangcheng, but I didn't expect that to happen so coincidentally, so I had to send those materials to Yangcheng. All supplies were given to those trapped at the train station."

After Boss Ma listened to Lin Feng's words, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. Children would not believe Lin Feng's words.

"Then it seems that my brother is really a conscientious entrepreneur."

Lin Feng quickly changed the topic and said, "Brother, these are all things in the past. I came to see you today for business."

Boss Ma looked at Lin Feng and said, "Oh, brother, let me hear what's going on?"

Lin Feng said: "My brother signed a strategic cooperation with Jingdong before?"

When Boss Ma heard Lin Feng's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, but his expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "There is such a thing, I don't know why my brother suddenly asked this?"

Lin Feng looked at Boss Ma and suddenly laughed.

"Brother, don't be nervous, I won't come to Xingshi today to ask questions."

"I just want to talk to my brother about the cooperation between Dangdang.com and Penguin."

When Boss Ma heard Lin Feng talking about Dangdang.com, he didn't react in his mind for a while.

"Brother, you may not know that I am actually a shareholder of Dangdang.com. The economy has been in recession recently, so I want Dangdang.com to cooperate with Penguin, and let Dangdang.com expand its sales by leveraging Penguin's huge user base."

"Gao Ling Capital really belongs to my brother?"

Boss Ma had heard before that the boss behind Gaoling Capital was Lin Feng, but he had always listened to this news as a rumor, but after hearing what Lin Feng said today, it seemed that Gaoling Capital really belonged to him.

"Brother, it seems that the business of your Star Group really involves a lot." Boss Ma clapped his hands lightly and looked at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng said: "So I don't know what my brother thinks of this cooperation?"

Boss Ma said: "My brother's Weichat users should not be much less than my Penguin, how did I find my brother?"

Lin Feng said: "Actually, I intend to let Dangdang.com open up the channel between Penguin and Weichat."

After listening to Lin Feng's words, there was a trace of seriousness in Boss Ma's eyes, but he quickly hid it.

"It seems that my brother's ambition is not small. Let the two major domestic communication industries expand the sales channels for Dangdang." Boss Ma smiled and looked at Lin Feng, "I wonder if our penguins can also participate in it and get a share of it?"

In Boss Ma's heart, he has to admit that although Lin Feng looks young, his strength and vision in the investment field are indeed top-notch.

Now that Lin Feng spared no effort to bring together Penguin and Weichat to increase the popularity of Dangdang.com, it proves that Lin Feng is very optimistic about this website.

When Gaoling Capital invested in Dangdang.com before, Boss Ma also deliberately learned about this e-commerce website.

Although this website is an e-commerce company that was established very early in China, it has developed quite well over the years.

Taobao, which was founded by Ali, became the leading domestic e-commerce company in just a few years, but Dangdang.com is still hovering on the food and clothing line, and the gap in the middle can be seen at a glance.

With the development and growth of penguins, Boss Ma's vision has become much higher.

Although Gaoling Capital gave a high valuation of one billion U.S. dollars to this Dangdang.com, Boss Ma still thinks that this website has no support value. After all, what he wants to find is an e-commerce company that can compete with Ali to curb Ali’s growth. develop.

So after Boss Ma read the news, he quickly put this matter behind him.

But now that Lin Feng mentioned this company again, Boss Ma suddenly had some other thoughts in his heart.

Lin Feng looked at the ever-changing expression on Boss Ma's face, and said with a smile: "Brother, are you okay?"

Lin Feng's words brought Boss Ma's thoughts back to reality.

"It's okay, where were we talking just now?"

Lin Feng said: "Speaking of my brother, I also want to get involved."

Boss Ma said: "Yes, that's right."

"I don't know what my brother's opinion is?"

Lin Feng said with a smile: "Of course I have no objection, after all, money can never be earned, who is it not earned?"

When Boss Ma heard Lin Feng's words, he stood up and gave Lin Feng a big hug.

"I knew my brother was a bold man."

2008 4 Month 15 Day.

Penguin and Dangdang.com issued a statement that Penguin will invest USD 1.5 million in Dangdang.com, acquiring [-]% of the shares and becoming the third largest shareholder of Dangdang.com.

As soon as the news came out, the entire capital market was boiling.

Previously, Gaoling Capital invested in Dangdang.com, and now even Penguin has invested in Dangdang.com.

Now many people can't figure out what is the charm of the entire Dangdang.com that can win the favor of so many capitals.

Then Penguin announced that it has reached a strategic cooperation with Dangdang.com. Dangdang.com will log into Penguin. In the future, Penguin users can directly jump to Dangdang.com through the link of Penguin, making it super convenient to place an order.

The next day, Weichat announced that it has reached a strategic cooperation with Dangdang.com. In the future, Weichat users can directly jump to Dangdang.com through the internal channel.

This time, the entire market has been swamped by the news of Dangdang.com, and more and more people have heard of Dangdang.com.

In order to see the charm of this dangdang.com, many people click on the website to have a look.

Originally, they were just here to watch the fun, but they soon discovered that this Dangdang.com not only allows you to buy books, but also a lot of commodities.

So the people who were watching the excitement turned into buying, buying, buying.

In the capital market, the valuation of Dangdang.com has increased by US$30 billion.

When Gaoling Capital proposed a billion-dollar valuation for Dangdang.com, many people thought that Zhang Shi must be crazy.

But in less than half a year now, Dangdang.com's valuation has reached 30 billion US dollars, a full three-fold increase.

The [-] million US dollars invested by Gaoling Capital has now become [-] million US dollars.

Now no one would say that Gaoling Capital is a fool. Now everyone thinks that Zhang Shi of Gaoling Capital is simply an investment wizard with a unique vision. Otherwise, why could he see the value of Dangdang.com so early.

Dangdang.com’s valuation has soared, causing more and more capital to focus on the e-commerce industry. More and more e-commerce start-up companies are being targeted by other capital. Venture capital, there are also a lot of people willing to invest.

Boss Ma of Ali Company also saw this report, and angrily tore the newspaper in half.

"Old Cai, come to my office, it's extremely urgent."

After calling Cai Xin, Boss Ma's anger slowly dissipated. He walked to the coffee table next to him, picked up the teapot, and raised his head "gurgling" to pour a few sips of tea indiscriminately.

"Old Ma, when did you drink tea like this?"

At this time, Cai Xin just walked into Boss Ma's office, and when he saw Boss Ma drinking tea directly from the spout of the teapot like those vulgar men in ancient times, he immediately joked.

"Don't talk nonsense, come here quickly, there is something urgent." Boss Ma put down the teapot in his hand, then picked up the newspaper that he had torn in half by his feet and put it on the table.

Cai Xin saw that Boss Ma's expression was not very good, and he thought that something might have happened.

Picking up the torn newspaper, Cai Xin quickly saw the report under the gaze of Boss Ma.

"Old Ma, are you angry about this matter?"

After Cai Xin finished speaking, Boss Ma stared at Cai Xin and said word by word: "Isn't this enough to make me angry?"

Cai Xin looked at the ferocious face of Boss Ma, and immediately said with a sneer: "It really makes people angry."

Boss Ma said: "I've already found out that the boss behind Gao Ling Capital is Lin Feng."

Cai Xin was really not clear about this matter, so he asked in a confused tone, "That is to say, Lin Feng and Penguin are going to join forces?"

Bang, there was a sound.

Boss Ma slapped the edge of the sofa with his right hand so hard that even Cai Xin's ears were buzzing.

"The two of them have teamed up a long time ago. It seems that they must kill our company."

Cai Xin waited for Boss Ma's expression to calm down a bit, and then said: "Then what should we do next? Fighting with them to the end or..."

"It must be a dead end." Boss Ma said in a strong tone.

Hearing Boss Ma's words, Cai Xin was not surprised. After all, he had known Boss Ma for several years and knew his character well.

As Boss Ma's "military adviser", Cai Xin needs to give Boss Ma an idea now that Boss Ma has decided to fight to the end.

"If this is the case, it appears that a price subsidy war is inevitable."

Boss Ma heard Cai Xin's words and looked at him: "How much liquidity do we have, is it enough to fight the subsidy war with them?"

Cai Xin showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and said slowly: "If we really have to count it up, our funding gap is still very large, and it may not be enough."
