Chapter 231 Meizu

Chapter 231 Meizu
Lei Jun stopped talking, he knew that since Shen Lang had decided on something, he would not change it easily, in essence, he and Chen Tianqiao were actually the same kind of people.

Moreover, Lei Jun is actually very interested in the project described by Shen Lang.

So the only question left is how to get started.

Acquisition is the most time-saving, so, which company to acquire?

Shen Lang and Lei Jun looked at each other, and almost blurted out: "Meizu!"

That's right, in 2005 Meizu was the well-deserved leading company of domestically produced MP3 players. Although this small factory located in the Pearl River is inconspicuous, it is well-known in the industry.

"However, I heard that Sassafras is not very talkative." Lei Jun frowned slightly.

As a company with excellent performance, it is natural to attract the attention of capital. As early as 2004, IDG asked someone to find sassafras and wanted to invest, but before the negotiation started, it ended without a problem, just because Huang Zhang felt Venture capital firms are speculators, and taking their money is likely to be kidnapped.

"No, why are you looking at me like that?" Shen Lang rolled his eyes.

Lei Jun curled his lips, in his opinion, this sassafras is just like Shen Lang, a hairless, pure iron cock.

Shen Lang had also heard about the deeds of Sassafras, but decided to give it a try. Since the other party was able to accept Ali's investment later, it showed that he was not so stubborn.

Lei Jun got Huang Zhang's phone number from Zhao Xin. Huang Zhang had heard Lei Jun's name before, and his tone was very polite. Lei Jun didn't reveal his intention to acquire Meizu, but made an appointment with the other party. Expressing that he wanted to visit the Meizu factory, Huang Zhang thought that Lei Jun had some products and wanted him to be an OEM, so he agreed without thinking.

On the 18th, Shen Lang and Lei Jun took a flight to Zhujiang, and Shen Lang met the founder of Meizu at the airport.

He looks ordinary, with a cropped cut, and wearing a blue suit, looks very capable.

"Boss Huang, it's a pleasure to meet you." Shen Lang took the initiative to shake hands with Huang Zhang.

When Huang Zhang first saw Lei Jun coming out with a young man, he thought it was an assistant or something, but when he got closer, it turned out to be Shen Lang, and immediately felt that this was not an easy matter.

"Mr. Shen, here, I didn't expect you to come. I was greeted at a distance, and I was greeted at a distance." Huang Zhang suppressed the doubts in his heart, and shook hands with Shen Lang enthusiastically.

The three greeted each other for a while, and then got into the car under the guidance of Huang Zhang.

"Mr. Shen, I really didn't expect you to come in person."

Huang Zhang still knows something about this Internet upstart who suddenly appeared. He basically uses 360 series software in his computer, and the experience is very good. Generally speaking, his perception of Shen Lang is still good. .

All the way to the Pearl River factory of Meizu, Meizu at this time is still a veritable small factory in the Pearl River, the scale of the factory looks small, only a few factory buildings.

"Mr. Shen and Mr. Lei, please sit down and try our Guangdong Kung Fu tea." Sassafras enthusiastically prepared to make tea.

Shen Lang and Lei Jun were not polite either, they were indeed a little thirsty along the way, the summer in Guangdong Province is really hot.

While drinking tea, the three of them chatted for a while, and finally Huang Zhang asked.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Lei, the two of you are here in person this time, it should not only be because you have some order for Meizu to do it, right?"

Shen Lang took a sip of tea, but did not speak, and Lei Jun spoke.

"Since Mr. Huang is quick to talk, then I won't hide it. We want to invest in Meizu."

Before coming here, Shen Lang had discussed with Lei Jun, and the chances of a successful acquisition were not high, and if the negotiation collapsed, there would be no room for relaxation, so Lei Jun would test the bottom line of sassafras first.

In fact, Sassafras probably guessed it along the way, and was not too surprised. He put down his teacup and pondered for a while.

"Oh, haven't you two been working on the Internet? Why did you suddenly think of investing in Meizu for hardware?"

Lei Jun smiled: "To be honest, we are planning to make a mobile terminal to better promote the company's products. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles in the future, investment is undoubtedly the best way."

"This..." Sassafras began to hesitate, he didn't really want to sell the company's shares, but judging by Lei Jun's attitude, if he didn't accept the investment, the order probably wouldn't fall on Meizu.

"How many shares does Boss Shen want?" Huang Zhang looked at Shen Lang, he knew that Shen Lang was the real owner.

Shen Lang put down his teacup and smiled lightly: "Of course, the more the better."

Sassafras' complexion immediately fell, what do you mean the more the better?Wouldn't that make him sell Meizu directly?
Just about to refuse, Shen Lang said: "Mr. Huang, actually you know better than me that the MP3 market is shrinking, Meizu's advantages will soon disappear, and transformation is imperative. I believe that we are a match made in heaven! "

Huang Zhang smiled coldly: "Oh, then I really want to hear how it is a match made in heaven."

"Transformation is nothing more than two issues, one is the direction, and the other is funding. The mobile terminal that Mr. Lei said just now is just a transitional product. What I really want to do is-smart phones! As for the funds, Mr. Huang might as well make a price."

As soon as Shen Lang's words fell, Huang Zhang's heart was shocked. The word "smartphone" made him feel excited. In fact, as early as 1999, Motorola launched a mobile phone called A6188, and Motorola also proposed the concept of smart phone. .

However, so far in the development of the mobile phone market, neither Motorola nor Nokia has a truly recognized "smart phone". Users have great expectations for this, but are disappointed every year.

In fact, Sassafras has long had the idea of ​​making a smartphone, but he has been unable to find a direction, and at the same time, he does not have enough confidence. To put it bluntly, confidence is technology and capital. He knows very well that Meizu's technical reserves are only enough for the MP3 market. If you mix it up, if you really want to compare it with giants like Motorola and Nokia, it will be far behind.

"2 million US dollars, 30% of the shares." Huang Zhang looked at Shen Lang fixedly.

Lei Jun's face changed when he heard that, the price is too outrageous, 2 million US dollars for such a small Pearl River factory?He only gave 30% of the shares. He wondered if the sassafras had been kicked by the donkey.

Shen Lang shook his head unhurriedly: "1 million RMB, 40% of the shares, Mr. Huang, I hope you can understand that we don't need you."

Sassafras' attitude is also very tough: "1 million is too little for the transition to a smartphone, not enough at all, and you want too many shares, which is impossible."

Shen Lang still shook his head: "It's too big a step to directly make a smartphone. The mobile terminal I mentioned is a good transitional product. This product can bring a lot of profits to Meizu, which is enough to provide Meizu with the funds needed for transformation."

"Are you so confident?" Huang Zhang asked suspiciously.

Shen Lang shrugged: "A product with a 5-inch large screen that can watch videos, listen to music, read novels, surf the Internet, and play games. Do you think users have reason to reject it?"

Huang Zhang stared blankly at Shen Lang, and after careful calculation, it seemed that this mobile terminal contained all the functions of a smartphone except that it could not make calls. No wonder Shen Lang said it was the best transitional product.

After struggling for a while, Huang Zhang still gritted his teeth and said to Shen Lang: "1 million RMB, 35% of the shares, no more!"

Lei Jun wanted to say something else, but Shen Lang had already stretched out his hand: "It's a happy cooperation."

Huang Zhang originally thought that there would be a tough negotiation, but Shen Lang actually agreed. He agreed. This is 1000 million RMB, not [-] million, and not tens of millions. Now everyone who engages in the Internet is so rich ?

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Shen." Huang Zhang was surprised, but also couldn't help admiring Shen Lang's courage, thinking in another way, if it was him, he would definitely not agree so readily.

Of course, Huang Zhang does not think that Meizu is not worth the price, he is confident that the value of the [-] million will be increased by a hundred times!
The acquisition of hundreds of millions is definitely not that simple, and there are still many details to discuss, but Shen Lang doesn't care about these, and leave it to Lei Jun to deal with. Lei Jun is also familiar with mergers and acquisitions. Settled in Meizu.

Shen Lang flew back to the capital from the Pearl River after another day.

On the afternoon of the 19th, Wang Zhonglei personally drove Shen Lang from Yiwu to Hengdian Film and Television City.

Along the way, Wang Zhonglei was discussing some capital operation topics with Shen Lang. In fact, since seeing the news on the Internet that Shen Lang's net worth exceeded tens of billions, the two brothers Wang Zhonglei became completely paralyzed.

Good guy, they started their business in the 90s, worked so hard for so many years, their net worth is only a few hundred million, and Shen Lang only started his business for three years, so his net worth is tens of billions?This money is so easy to earn?
Shen Lang didn't care about it, so he told him some conventional methods in the financial market, but Wang Zhonglei was overwhelmed by what he heard, and even regretted driving himself. If he had known about calling a driver, he would have learned a few more tricks from Shen Lang.

Originally, Wang Zhonglei was going to hold a dinner party and bring all the main creators of the film crew over to meet Shen Lang, but Shen Lang directly refused.

"The launch conference will be held tomorrow. Director Chen and the others must be busy with a lot of things, so I won't bother them."

It was a pity for Wang Zhonglei, originally he planned to ask Shen Lang a few more tricks at the banquet.

After sending Shen Lang to the hotel, Wang Zhonglei called his brother Wang Zhongjun.

"Did someone receive it?" Wang Zhongjun's tone was a little tired. Don't look at him lightly when facing the media, saying that Huayi left anyone, but in fact, Wang Jinghua really hurt Huayi this time.

Coupled with the departure of Xiaogangpao, perhaps [Zhu Xian] is Huayi's only A-level production in the past two years, so he naturally dare not neglect it.

"Got it, bro, I just sent him to the hotel." Wang Zhonglei said.

"That's good, Mr. Shen has no objection to the female number one, right?" Wang Zhongjun asked.

Wang Zhonglei smiled and said: "No, he seems to be quite interested in this little girl. When he got in the car, he asked: How did this little girl be chosen by Director Chen?"

"That's good." Wang Zhongjun breathed a sigh of relief: "Tomorrow's launch conference will be handed over to you. I'm still talking with Xiaogangpao. I hope I can bring him back."

Wang Zhongjun wanted to hang up while talking, but Wang Zhonglei stopped him.

"Brother, today when I was chatting with Mr. Shen in the car, I asked: How can we make the employees follow the company with all their hearts?"

"Oh, what did he say?" Wang Zhongjun asked curiously.

Wang Zhonglei said seriously: "He said it's very simple, turn them into bosses too!"

Wang Zhongjun smiled wryly: "I've tried it, but I still can't get it right. Xiaogangpao doesn't like that share."

"Brother, don't worry, listen to me first." Wang Zhonglei said: "Later I asked him again, if an employee went out to start a business, how can he come back."

"Oh? What did he say?"

"He said: one is to find a way to make his business fail, and the other is to acquire the company he started!"

Wang Zhongjun's eyes lit up: "Yes! I can directly buy his company!"

"Hey, brother" Wang Zhonglei listened to the busy tone on the phone, and couldn't help secretly admiring, regardless of Shen Lang's young age, in terms of ability, he was not inferior to these old fritters at all.

A few days later, on the 20th, early in the morning, actors, directors, and main creators began to prepare.

The launch conference was held in a hotel in Hengdian, and many media came to the scene. After all, Huayi is the first-class film company in the mainland, and its influence is still there.

Moreover, this drama is Liu Tianxian's first "electric shock". If you want to say what the hottest TV drama in 2005 is, there is no doubt that it must be "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and all the leading actors have gained a lot of popularity.

With the role of Zhao Linger, Liu Tianxian has become the most popular actress in the mainland, and she doesn't even need to be added.

Many media at the scene were directed at Liu Tianxian. As for Song Tie who played Baguio, not many people paid attention to it. A 16-year-old fledgling girl, unless Huayi gave money, otherwise, who would write about it? reports about her.

At this moment in the background, Song Tie looked at Liu Tianxian, who was surrounded by a bunch of people busily busy, and couldn't help being a little envious. When will he be as popular as her?
At this moment, Chen Jiashang came backstage.

"Let's go when you're ready, everyone is waiting outside."

"Yes, Director Chen."

"Oh."

A group of main creators followed Chen Jiashang to the conference site. It was obvious that all the reporters on the scene were taking pictures of Liu Tianxian, and the others were basically ignored.

Liu Tianxian has long been accustomed to such scenes, Song Tie was completely dazzled by the spotlight, nervously remembered what the manager said, raised his head and smiled.

After the main creators were seated, Song Tie was a little puzzled. Chen Jiashang didn't announce the start of the launch conference, but seemed to be waiting for someone. Not only him, but even the media at the scene were looking out.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door.

"It's coming, it's coming, it's finally coming."

"It seems that Huayi's news is still reliable, he is really here."

Song Tie secretly looked out curiously, full of doubts in his heart, aren't the main creators sitting beside him?Who is this?
Wang Zhonglei and Shen Lang appeared side by side in the hotel meeting place, and the spotlights dazzled Shen Lang's eyes. Fortunately, he had practiced swordsmanship in the West Lake before, and soon regained his composure.

Song Tie curiously asked the number one male next to him: "Who is next to President Xiao Wang?"

The male number one has a strange expression on his face: "You don't even know him? Don't you usually go online? He is the investor of our movie, the boss of Zhulang Technology, YY, you always know, right? It's their company's product, It is said that his net worth has exceeded tens of billions."

"what?!!!"
