I have a thousand suites in Shenzhen

Chapter 176: Rushing is not a good deal (please ask Yue Yuan)
"Wouldn't that be an advantage to the other party? If we take over the deal at a high price, it would be a huge loss!" Jack Ma said with dissatisfaction in his heart.

However, there was no way to dissatisfy the situation. In fact, although Taobao's stock price began to rise slightly afterwards, it was only by a small amount, and the trading volume shrank.

After all, everything that should be sold has been sold, and some retail investors are still holding on because the stock price is too low and it would be a huge loss to sell now.

The so-called pump-and-dump did not happen at all. The other party seemed to be just getting in but not getting out. It seemed that they planned to hold it for a long time.

Naturally, it was Yi Anguo who bought a large amount of shares in Taobao Company. Yi Anguo already holds 40.00% of Taobao Company's shares.

He knew that in order to fear that Jack Ma would consolidate his rights, he would definitely privatize and delist the tradable shares listed on the Hong Kong stock market.

Once the privatization and delisting of Hong Kong stocks is completed, the delisted equity of these Hong Kong stocks will fall into his hands, enhancing his control over Taobao Company.

Of course, Yi Anguo would not let him get these equity shares so easily. At least he would get a share of it.

Even if it is given to him in the end, he will have to pay a high price.

For example, it is best to exchange the shares for insurance.

With the continuous development of Jing Jing Online Supermarket, the number of registered users of Jing Jing Pay has also skyrocketed, and it is no longer just serving Jing Jing Online Supermarket.

Since investing in Qiangdong Company, you can also use Quiet Payment when shopping at Qiangdong Mall.

In addition, e-commerce companies invested by Hualong, such as No. [-] Online Super Nian, can also make purchases through Quiet Payment.

Quiet Logistics' express delivery business is also following up to expand its business.

In addition, Huaxing’s official website sells mobile phones, and you can also pay with Anjing.

At the same time, Yi Anguo once again established a new company called Fantuan.com, which mainly engages in group buying and takeout delivery services.

Although he has invested in the first domestic food delivery company in Shanghai and the originator of group buying companies in the United States, this does not prevent him from also establishing a group buying and food delivery company.

As for whether Fantuan.com can survive the fierce competition in the future Thousand Regiments War, this is not a question that Yi Anguo has to consider.

Fantuan.com was first launched in Shenzhen. Relying on the traffic promotion of Anjing Online Supermarket and Anjing Pay, the first batch of cooperative merchants have tasted the benefits.

Because there are not many merchants in the first batch of cooperation, there is no competition. The sales volume of every merchant in the first batch of cooperation has increased many times compared with usual, and they are simply too busy. .

Other cooperative merchants are doing better, but the catering industry is different. They have to stop taking orders because there are too many orders and they are exhausted and can't handle it!

The surrounding restaurants saw this, and after knowing what was going on, they all wanted to join the rice ball delivery platform. After all, the business was too busy to win, so how much money would they make?

Although you have to pay a little extra service fee, it is still very cost-effective, after all, you can earn more!

Moreover, the service fee for each order is not much, only one yuan, and consumers also have to pay a one yuan delivery fee, which equals a two yuan service fee for each order.

Although two yuan is not much, the delivery boy can deliver many orders in a day, which adds up to a lot. He can deliver hundreds of orders in a day, and he can earn 200 yuan in a day.

After all, the website platform has just been launched, the number of delivery boys is not very large, the competition is not fierce, and the industry has not begun to involute.

An income of 200 yuan a day was definitely not low for ordinary people, even in the downtown area of ​​Guannei, Shenzhen in 2008.

December 12 is Christmas Eve for Westerners. On this day, the international crude oil futures trading price fell to 24 US dollars a barrel, setting a new low.

And Yi Anguo also completely cleared his short positions and turned around to go long, because in less than half a month, the international crude oil futures trading price will return to more than 50 US dollars a barrel.

Since the international crude oil futures trading price reached 147 US dollars a barrel, it has plummeted by 111 US dollars.

At its peak, Yi Anguo held more than one million short positions in international crude oil futures contracts. Although there were not that many positions before, it was only 20 at the beginning. When the position was finally cleared, it was also only 20. The average number in the middle was nearly 60 lots, and the drop for every dollar was as high as $600 million, so the final profit exceeded $[-] billion.

Throughout 2008, Yi Anguo's profits from international crude oil futures were as high as US$100 billion.

What a terrifying number this is, and all transactions have ended. These funds are funds that have been withdrawn to the bank account. They are cash flow and real money, not so-called assets.

Of course, Yi Anguo also spent a lot of money on various investment projects, but the remaining money was still amazing.

However, Yi Anguo also has an investment plan for the money. Of course, he will try not to keep the money in the bank account, but will find a way to invest it.

It's just that the time hasn't come yet. When the time comes, no matter how much money he has, he can spend it.

And more than ten days later, after the international crude oil futures price rose back to above 50 US dollars, he could still reap a wave, at least making billions of dollars again. After all, the increase in this wave was as high as 14 US dollars.

Not to mention other things, the research expenses required for the production of semiconductor chips such as a photolithography machine and necessary packaging equipment require a huge amount of money.

Investment in high-tech R&D expenses is like a bottomless pit, and no amount of money is too much.

In particular, the era of intelligence is coming, intelligent robots are also a research direction, and the era of new energy is also coming. New energy batteries and new energy vehicles are also projects worthy of research and investment.

Planning in advance, investing in lithium mines in advance, entering the lithium battery industry in advance, and acquiring an automobile manufacturing company in advance are all projects worth investing in.

If you enter during the current financial crisis, you can save a lot of investment costs.

In order to facilitate unified management, Yi Anguo established Anguo Holding Group, which is 100% controlled by him personally.

As for the following companies, although Yi Anguo still accounts for the majority, other shareholders will still be allowed, such as technology stocks, management stocks, employee incentive stocks, and investments from other companies.

For example, Penguin invested one billion US dollars in Anjing Online Supermarket, and also packaged and gifted Penguin's e-commerce business to Anjing Online Supermarket in exchange for 20.00% of the shares of Anjing Online Supermarket.

Through such an operation, the valuation of Anjing Online Supermarket, which has not yet been listed, has exceeded US$50 billion.

The technical team and management team that first entered Jingjing Online Supermarket, including some old employees, all had shares donated by the company. Although the shares were not many, based on the company's valuation of more than US$50 billion, then Equivalent to nearly 400 billion RMB.

One percent is 4 million yuan. Even 0.01% is worth 400 million yuan, and many of the company's middle and senior management have reached this figure.Even the old employees at the bottom only hold 0.001% of the company's shares, which is equivalent to 40.

Company executives like Yi Haiyang hold more shares. Even if Yi Haiyang doesn't hold many shares, he is already a billionaire worth hundreds of millions.

There are dozens of other senior executives worth tens of millions of dollars and key members of the technical team, and then there are even more people worth millions.

Yi Anguo originally released a lot of shares, but later Yi Anguo increased its investment in Jingjing Online Supermarket several times through Hong Kong Hualong Investment Company. The technical team, management team, and employee shareholdings were all diluted.

But this is inevitable. It is impossible for Yi Anguo to keep investing money. They still hold so many shares, right?
But although their shares are being diluted, the value of their shares is getting higher and more valuable.

However, before the company is officially listed, their shares only have dividend rights but no trading rights.

Before the official listing, their shares will be further diluted.

Moreover, there is a lock-up period after listing, and trading is not possible as soon as it is listed.

Everyone has shares and is a shareholder of the company. As the company's valuation gets higher and higher, the shares in their hands become more and more valuable, so everyone is more and more motivated.

The company is now valued at US$50 billion. Maybe the company can be valued at US$500 billion in the future?

Then, their wealth will increase tenfold.

Like Huaxing Technology Company, Anguo Property Management Company, and even Anguo Mahogany Furniture, Yi Anguo has also dispersed some shares. Only in this way will everyone be more motivated.

In addition to technology shares, management shares, and employee shares, Huaxing Technology Company has also introduced Shenzhen State-owned Assets to invest 20.00% of the shares.

Yi Anguo had actually been mentally prepared for this, so when Shenzhen State-owned Assets took the initiative to find him and asked to invest in Huaxing Technology Company, Yi Anguo readily agreed.

But before that, Yi Anguo separated the Huaxing mobile phone business from the company and established Huaxing Communication Equipment Co., Ltd., which specializes in the technology research and development, production and sales of Huaxing smartphones, including the research and development of Huaxing smartphone chips.

The Guo brothers have been insisting and refused to sell the 60 tons of Vietnamese huanghuali they had. They sold the Indian small-leaf red sandalwood. The Indian small-leaf red sandalwood has now increased to more than [-] tons per ton!They still made a lot of money and got some blood back.

However, the quantity of Indian small-leaf rosewood they have is not large. Although they have made a lot of money, it pales in comparison to the money they lost when investing in Vietnamese huanghuali.

Later, they sold off the Laotian Siamese rosewood, although they had a large amount of Laotian Siamese rosewood, as many as tens of millions of tons.

But at this time, the best big sheets of Siamese rosewood in Laos only cost more than 8000 per ton. They actually still lost money. Although the loss was not much, it was still several million.

Then they watched helplessly as the 500 tons of Vietnamese huanghuali in their hands became less and less valuable and depreciated more and more.

Ordinary Vietnamese huanghuali has actually dropped to 25 yuan per ton. Compared with more than 70 yuan per ton a year ago, the price has dropped by only one-third.

However, this is just ordinary Vietnamese huanghuali ingredients. The Vietnamese huanghuali ingredients like the ones they have are all large pieces, and they have fallen even more.

They moved here and there to pay off the debt, but the debt they owed was too much, and the bank did not accept this kind of collateral, so it was impossible to borrow money from the bank again.

I originally thought that the situation would improve after the country finally introduced a [-] trillion fund rescue plan to stimulate economic recovery.

But the reality is that it has been two months since the [-] trillion plan was launched, but the market response has been very lukewarm. House prices have fallen instead of rising, and the stock market has not improved. The Vietnamese huanghuali in their hands has not only failed to increase in value, but has depreciated even more.

Yi Xiaolin received an order from his cousin Yi Anguo, telling him to seize the time and get the [-] tons of Vietnamese huanghuali in the hands of the Guo brothers as soon as possible. He could not delay it any longer. If he delayed it any longer, there would be no chance to buy it again.

If it doesn't work, just raise the purchase price.

Yi Xiaolin had no choice. This matter was really not going smoothly. Although the price he offered every time was much higher than the market price, the Guo brothers just refused to let it go. He couldn't just grab it!
"Boss Guo! How's it going? Can we talk again about your 500 tons of Vietnamese huanghuali?"

Yi Xiaolin took out a pack of Ruanhuazi, gave each of the Guo brothers a cigarette, and said with a wry smile, almost wanting to kneel down and beg these two guys.

"What's the use of continuing to waste money like this? The market won't get better in a few years."

"If we delay it any longer, the price may even drop. Why do you think you are doing this?"

Boss Guo lit the cigarette, took a puff, exhaled, and remained silent.

What Yi Xiaolin said was exactly what they were worried about.

"If you had enough funds and strength, to be honest, I wouldn't be able to come to you at all, let alone persuade you, because I know you wouldn't be able to sell."

"But you don't have the funds and strength, and you have sold out all the things you can sell. Do you really want to sell this factory that you have been running for many years?"

"The question is, even if you sell the factory, can you survive this crisis? Do you have the money to pay off your debts?"

"If we are willing to sell, how much higher than the market price are you willing to pay to buy the Vietnamese huanghuali from us?" Guo Laoer finally couldn't help but ask.

"20.00%, I have said it before, we are willing to pay 20.00% higher than the market price to buy the Vietnamese huanghuali from you." Yi Xiaolin said immediately.

"No, it's too low, at least 30.00% more than the market price." Guo Laoer said.

"30.00% higher than the market price. Is what you want a bit too much?" Yi Xiaolin frowned and said.

Although he can accept the price, and he also has the right to make the decision. After all, his uncle Yi Anguo has given him the power to make the decision himself.

Originally, he planned to take the initiative to raise the price by 30.00% to win the approval of the Guo brothers.

But now the situation is a little different. The other party is actually willing to take the initiative to let go, which shows that the other party can no longer hold on.

As the saying goes, rushing is not a good deal. Since the other party has taken the initiative to let go, of course he cannot agree so easily.

From this moment on, the offense and defense have changed positions.
