Chapter 912 Future Value
"Since you are all interested in my child's company, you might as well give me their own plans and I'll find the most suitable one!" Old Geld said first. This is the best result for coming to Geld, because if all plans are really handed over to Geld, then Geld naturally has the final say, so Bezos will be decided directly.
Unfortunately, Huang Yiming is not that stupid. After Old Geld made a request, Huang Yiming smiled and said, "Mr. Jadel, you have worked hard these days. I won't bother you, elder, just let the younger generation review it!"
"You are still young, you don't understand many things!" Old Geld's expression froze.
"You are a finance person, not an internet person, but we are more familiar with each other!" Huang Yiming turned back without hesitation.
"I think this is better. Everyone just spread their conditions on the table to discuss whether it is good or not. You can compare it. This is also the most beneficial to 51 search!" Boss Jia said with a smile.
Boss Jia is right. Putting all the conditions directly on the surface will be almost the same as an auction, and of course you can maximize your interests.
But Old Geld was not willing. He just wanted to operate in secret and sell the company to Bezos. But at this time, Huang Yiming, who holds 50% of the shares, disagreed without permission. He had no other way. He could not blatantly reject a solution that would benefit the company the most.
However, Old Geld was also prepared. He nodded and said, "Since that's the case, please prepare to take out your plan and let's take a look together!"
"It's so outrageous. I've never seen such a negotiation!" Apple executive cursed. He had done so many financings and had never seen so many investors sitting on a table and negotiate terms like an auction.
However, the momentum of 51 search is indeed very strong now. No one is stupid about the meaning of search engines to the Internet. Apple is determined to win 51 search, so Apple executives can only complain about it and finally agree.
"We Apple are willing to spend $5 million to purchase all the shares of 51 Search!" So, Apple executives were the first to throw out their own conditions. The plan they proposed before was basically the same, without any change.
"We Microsoft can pay $6 million!" Microsoft executives followed.
"I can also pay 6 million on Amazon!" Bezos said immediately. This is a strategy he and Old Geld discussed. He will not let it go first, and then use the other companies to kill Daqian.
"We Yahoo can pay 1 million US dollars to buy all the shares of 51 search!" Yang Zhiyuan said in the fourth time. This price certainly surprised everyone present. Everyone else has paid 6 million US dollars, and Yahoo only pays 1 million US dollars. Is this funny?
Seeing the surprised eyes of others, Jerry Yang smiled slightly and said, "In addition, I can also provide 5% of Yahoo shares in exchange. We, Yahoo, have confirmed that it can be listed on the Nasdaq. The total market value will not be less than US$400 million, and the 5% shares will be US$20 million. This is our Yahoo's great sincerity!"
"20 million US dollars!" Everyone present was shocked by the price. This price was a little too exaggerated.
"Hahahaha!" Just when everyone was shocked, Boss Jia couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Yang, this is the first time I heard that someone sells shares that have not been listed as US$20 million. You are really confident!"
"Yes, Yahoo's future is obvious to all. It is not impossible to surpass Microsoft in the future. A 5% stake will be 20 million next year, and in a few years it may be hundreds of millions of dollars!" said Jerry Yang with a thrilling look.
Having said that, what Yang Zhiyuan said is reasonable, or very reasonable. Yahoo's market value was US$125 billion at its highest, and this 5% stake was worth US$6.25 billion, which scared everyone to death.
But then again, if you use this rogue method to calculate, Google's current market value is 1.05 trillion US dollars, and 1.05 trillion US dollars of 6.25 billion US dollars, which is really scary.
Unfortunately, there were old foxes on the scene. They might be scared by 20 million at the beginning, but they soon realized that Zhiyuan Yang was just farting and boasting about 20 million with unlisted shares.
"Haha!" Everyone present laughed, Yang Zhiyuan's face turned hot, he stared at Jia Yapeng and said, "I wonder how much Mr. Jia is willing to pay?"
"Me?" Boss Jia smiled slightly. "Since Mr. Yang said that he used his future shares worth US$20 million to acquire 51!"
When Boss Jia spoke, he bit his fingers twice on the word "Future", which made Yang Zhiyuan so angry that he became angry again.
"I don't like the future, I like the present more!" Boss Jia smiled, "20 million US dollars in cash, I buy all the shares of 51!"
"What!" Everyone present was really shocked this time. Jia Yapeng wasn't crazy. He bought 51 US dollars for 20 million US dollars, and it was really worth the cash. Is this nonsense?
The only ones who were not surprised at the scene were probably Bezos and Old Geld. After all, Boss Jia’s acquisition price was put in front of them yesterday.
"Mr. Jia, this is not a joke!" Microsoft's representative asked, gritting his teeth.
"Actually, I had handed over this plan to Old Geld yesterday. If you hadn't come in time today, we would have completed the signing of the contract now!" Boss Jia smiled. Everyone was really confused this time.
The reason they came together today was because Old Geld told them specifically that if they didn't come today, he would sign a contract with Daqian. But Old Geld did not give the price of $20 million, so these unlucky children were still stuck in the dark.
"Okay, sirs, if the offer does not exceed Mr. Jia's US$20 million, I will sign a contract with Mr. Jia!" Huang Yiming immediately followed up.
"This..." Microsoft's representative hesitated.
"My Yahoo stock is worth US$20 million!" Yang Zhiyuan insisted, it seemed that he didn't want to leave anymore.
"I need to ask the head office for this price, please wait!" Apple's representative said cautiously.
"I can pay $21 million!" Only Bezos said in a very straightforward tone. This company, which has just been established for a few months, is willing to pay $21 million to acquire 51 Search, which makes Boss Jia look at him with admiration!
