Shenhao started as a military training anchor

When Holly mentioned the acquisition of Wanda Investment and holding shares in Wanda Movies, father and son Wang Jianlin and Wang Sicong had complicated expressions.

The two of them did not doubt whether Holly had the strength. After all, he had promised to borrow [-] billion to help Wanda tide over the difficulties.

This is still certain.

What the father and son were thinking about was that Holly stood up to talk about this matter at this time. They didn't know whether he was giving help in times of trouble or taking advantage of the situation like the creditor Tencent.

Both father and son are relatively upright people, and they are very straightforward in speaking and doing things. They don't like their friends and partners around them to make small moves.

Holly noticed the scrutinizing gazes of the father and son, gently put down the tea cup, and said with a smile, "Uncle Wang, if you have to sell it now, selling it to me will be more valuable than selling it to Tencent."

Wang Jianlin put away his serious expression.

Since I chose to sit down and talk with Holly, I naturally wanted to listen to the other person's thoughts.

"Tell me about it." Wang Jianlin spread his hands and said.

Holly said: "Shanghai Ruyi has completed the equity transfer of 49% with Wanda Investment. If the remaining 51% is completed, Shanghai Ruyi will hold 20% of Wanda Film's shares and become the largest shareholder of Wanda Film. .

Uncle Wang, you have lost control.

Simply put, your favorite movie industry is changing its name.

On the other hand, if 51% of Wanda Investment's shares are transferred to Qihang Media, and Qihang Media holds about 10% of the shares, Wanda Film's equity structure will be optimized.

You are still the largest shareholder of Wanda Film and have voting rights on the board of directors.

In addition, during the B-round financing of Qihang Media, Uncle Wang and I signed a gambling agreement. Wanda Film invested [-] million in Qihang Media and became a shareholder of Qihang Media.

Uncle Wang now has two choices.

First, I repurchased the shares at the current valuation of Qihang Media and then acquired Wanda Investment, which is equivalent to raising two amounts of cash for Uncle Wang.

The second is that Qihang Media acquired Wanda Investment. Wanda Films and Qihang Media hold shares in each other and continue to cooperate in the development of IP for major projects such as "The Three-Body Problem".

Both options are better than selling Wanda Investment to Shanghai Ruyi. "

Wang Jianlin fell into thinking.

If Holly didn't mention the acquisition of Wanda Investment, he wouldn't think about it in this regard.

But now that I heard his acquisition plan, it is indeed the best solution at present.

Want cash, have cash.

If you want control of Wanda Film, you also have control.

His inner choice is to sell Wanda Investment and let Wanda Film and Qihang Media hold shares in each other.

On the one hand, it optimizes the equity structure and prevents Wanda Film from changing its name. On the other hand, the gambling agreement between Wanda Film and Qihang Media is an excellent investment.

Coupled with the in-depth cooperation between the two parties, the future income brought by the film market to both parties is very optimistic.

Wang Jianlin also saw that Holly's purpose was to build a whole industry chain.

He also sent people to attend Qihang Media's tens-billion-dollar new film press conference, knowing that Holly was going to have a head-on confrontation with Bona.

This time he jumped out to intercept Hu Tencent. Holly's two actions undoubtedly gave him two powerful enemies.

Wang Jianlin said bluntly: "Qihang Media has just got on the right track, and you are so eager to change the pattern of the film market.

Are you confident? "

There was a hint of care and concern in the words.

Holly responded calmly: "Uncle Wang, the market is changing rapidly and opportunities are fleeting. Now that I am in front of me, I have no reason to give up.

Although this is a big step and may bring a lot of troubles, without troubles, how can we talk about competition or progress?

To tell you the truth, Uncle Wang, before I came to see you, I had already negotiated financing matters with several investors.

Now I'm waiting for you to speak. "

Wang Jianlin said: "Tell me, who are they?"

Holly said bluntly: "Liu Qiangdong, Zhang Yiming, Shen Nanpeng and Xu Xin!"

Wang Jianlin smiled.

As soon as you hear this lineup, you know what cards Holly is going to play.

This is preparing to form an alliance camp to fight against Alibaba Entertainment and Tencent Entertainment.

Smiling and adding tea to Holly, "Your way of doing things always surprises me.

But I appreciate it very much. "

These two sentences are Wang Jianlin's heartfelt praise.

The first time the two met, Holly was about to sign a betting contract with him.

Then he and the He family in Macau invested 400 billion to build an international resort.

Now it wants to acquire Wanda Investment.

To be honest, in Wang Jianlin's eyes, this young man is more courageous than he was back then.

"Xiao Huo, the path you have chosen is not easy to take." Wang Jianlin said bluntly.

He picked up the tea cup and exchanged greetings with Holly.

Holly finished his tea, put down his tea cup and said with a smile, "I wanted to try the road that Uncle Wang didn't take before.

After all, there is only one horse left out of the two, so I think I have a chance. "

Wang Jianlin heard the profound meaning of his words and wanted to reach out to the Internet market.

At that time, he himself tried many times to start the Internet. From group buying to e-commerce, he tried everything that was an Internet trend, but the results were all unsatisfactory.

I can't beat those Internet practitioners.

Although he had several verbal battles with Jack Ma, and no one was convinced, he had to admit in his heart that he was convinced by Jack Ma in the Internet industry.

Wang Jianlin still remembers Jack Ma's mockery of "gathering together the team" back then.

Holly's words stimulated Wang Jianlin to a certain extent.

Therefore, whether we consider practical interests or personal feelings and honor, selling Wanda Investment to Qihang Media seems to be the most ideal result. "I'm here to wish you all your wishes come true." Wang Jianlin said, "But I still need time to consider the acquisition plan you mentioned, and finally vote on it at the board of directors."

Holly smiled and nodded: "I'm waiting for your good news, Uncle Wang."

After talking about the matter, Wang Jianlin looked at the time and said to Wang Sicong, "Sicong, please entertain Xiao Huo. I'll go have something to eat. After that, I'll go on a business trip to Zhuhai."

Wang Sicong nodded, "Okay, Dad."

Holly stood up and said, "Uncle Wang, take care of yourself. There is no obstacle that you can't overcome."

"Yes." Wang Jianlin patted Holly on the shoulder, "I have never seen any big storms and waves in all these years, but this little thing in front of me can't overwhelm me."

After speaking, he left in a hurry.

Wang Sicong and Holly sat down and continued drinking tea.

"Let's have dinner together tonight?" Wang Sicong invited.

"It just so happens that a friend is inviting me to dinner tonight. Let's go over and sit down together?" Holly said.

"Okay." Wang Sicong nodded.

He had just listened to Holly's conversation with his father.

Although it was a normal negotiation, each seeking profit, it could be felt that Holly was still interested in helping Wanda.

Wang Sicong felt that he had seen the right person.

Holly guessed that he was not in the mood to go clubbing during this period. As a director of Wanda Group, he must have a headache now, and he still wanted to share it with his father.

Just ask him to have a simple dinner.

It happened that Qin Baicheng, CEO of Star Community, invited him to dinner to talk about Star Community's Series B financing.

Wang Sicong had expressed his willingness to invest in Star Community before, so he invited him to come and sit with him.

Regardless of his status as a director of Wanda, Wang Sicong's several investment companies are still developing well, but they have not reached scale.

If he encounters a good product, he will definitely not let it go.

The two sat and drank tea for a while, and then dinner time passed directly.

Holly walked into the box and shook hands with Qin Baicheng, looked at Wang Sicong, and joked, "Mr. Qin, no need for me to introduce you, right?"

"No need." Qin Baicheng called, "Hello, Principal Wang."

"Hello, Mr. Qin."

"Mr. Huo, Principal Wang, please sit down." Qin Baicheng invited.

The three of them sat down and chatted while eating.

Holly asked Wang Sicong, "How do you feel after playing Star Community for a while?"

Wang Sicong said bluntly: “The user experience of this product is still good, the design is also very novel, the page is simple and comfortable, and the content is more youthful. Overall, it is a good social product.

How many registered users are there now? "

Qin Baicheng said: "More than 6300 million."

Wang Sicong nodded: "The traffic is already huge, and it actually has the ability to monetize."

Qin Baicheng said: "My team and I still want to continue to work hard on content, continue to attract traffic, attract more Xingdaren users, and at the same time increase the stickiness of ordinary users."

"Some areas need to be optimized."

"Yes, Principal Wang, please give me your valuable advice." Qin Baicheng said.

Holly asked with concern: "Qiangyin's side, has Mr. Qin gone to talk?"

"Let's talk. Thank you Mr. Huo for pulling the strings in the first place." Qin Baicheng raised a toast to Holly.

Holly clinked a drink with him, "The competition between Star Community and Weibo has just begun. Mr. Qin should not take it lightly because he won the previous spat.

We need to face up to the gap with our opponents before we know how to catch up. "

"Thank you, Mr. Huo, for the reminder." Qin Baicheng said, "In terms of application technology, there is still a big gap between us and Weibo, but we are confident that we can catch up or even surpass it."

Holly smiled and nodded.

Star Community’s Series B financing raised US$3000 million, led by Holly’s Haikuo Investment and Zhou Hongyi’s IDG Capital, which invested US$2100 million, and Qiangyin Investment and Wang Sicong’s Pusi Investment followed by US$900 million.

Equivalent to RMB 2.2 million, which is enough for Qin Baicheng to implement his new plan.

Star Community, a social product, has also gained a bit of unstoppable momentum.

As long as the management team does not get sick and advances steadily according to the current model, it will definitely attract more capital attention.

It's only a matter of time before IPO hits.

Maybe it will replace Weibo’s influence in the entertainment industry.

……

After Wang Jianlin thought carefully, he brought Holly's acquisition plan to the board of directors for discussion, and finally passed the vote of Wanda's board of directors.

Qihang Media began to advance the acquisition of Wanda Investment.

Series C financing of US$5 million.

Shunwei Capital and Haikuo Investment led the investment, with Qiangyin Investment, JD.com Investment, Sequoia China, Capital Today, and China Renaissance also participating.

Equivalent to RMB 35.9 billion.

Qihang Media acquired 26.67% of Wanda Investment's shares for 51 billion and directly held 9.8% of Wanda Film's shares, becoming Wanda Film's second largest shareholder.

Sit on the board of directors of Wanda Film Group.

After completing this financing acquisition, the valuation of Qihang Media exceeded 210 billion, reaching [-] billion.

Sitting on the second-largest deal in the domestic film production industry.

Holly has almost the right to speak out in the entertainment industry.
