Chapter 1143 Betrayal!
listed! When Li Yanhong heard Lin Feng's words, he looked horrified, but then became ecstatic.
For a long time, Li Yanhong and others have wanted to seek listing. After all, "Baidu Portal" has developed from a small search engine company to a multinational company integrating portals and search engines, and its market share has already ranked among the largest. World's third (tied with "Microsoft"'s "msn"). It stands to reason that it should have been listed long ago. It's just that Lin Feng has been suppressing him, and Lin Feng holds 55% of the equity of "Baidu Portal". No one can do anything about Lin Feng's suppressing. What's more, Lin Feng didn't mean that he couldn't go public, he just waited for a while to go public.
Now that Lin Feng suddenly said that he was going to list "Baidu Portal", Robin Li was naturally very surprised and pleasantly surprised.
"Hehe, Mr. Li, don't be so surprised, there is an even bigger surprise." Lin Feng said with a smile.
Bigger surprise? ——When Li Yanhong heard this, his heart thumped and thumped. If the listing of "Baidu Portal" is not the biggest surprise, then what is the biggest surprise?
Lin Feng revealed an inscrutable smile at the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe, Mr. Li, I'm going to raise funds for the third time." Lin Feng said.
Third fundraising? ——Li Yanhong frowned instinctively. Now "Baidu Portal" does not need to raise funds for the third time, and the existing liquidity is sufficient, so there is no need to raise funds at all. Moreover, raising funds again before going public will significantly dilute everyone's shares.
Lin Feng could clearly see Robin Li's expression, knowing that Robin Li was worried that everyone's shares would be diluted again. After all, "Baidu" was originally founded by him, but Lin Feng came from behind and became the chairman of "Baidu Portal" instead, holding an absolute controlling stake. Robin Li only held 35% of the shares. However, due to the rapid development of "Baidu Portal" and the changes brought about by Lin Feng, Robin Li willingly accepted this fact. But now that it is diluted again, Robin Li is not happy in his heart.
"Hehe, Mr. Li, I decided to raise funds for the third time, just for one thing - the acquisition of Yahoo!" Lin Feng said lightly.
Although Lin Feng's tone was relaxed, to Li Yanhong, it was a thunderbolt from the blue sky.
Buy Yahoo! Buy Yahoo! Buy Yahoo!
These four words kept stirring in Li Yanhong's mind. This was too surprising to Li Yanhong, too surprising to him, he never thought it would be like this! Actually... actually... actually going to buy Yahoo! Is this true?
"boss,
Is our company really going to buy 'Yahoo'? Li Yanhong couldn't help but grabbed Lin Feng's shoulders and said excitedly.
Lin Feng nodded heavily.
"That's right, Mr. Li, our company is going to acquire 'Yahoo'!" Lin Feng said heavily.
Robin Li looked up to the sky and screamed, but he thought that this place is in the United States, and this matter must be absolutely confidential. Before the acquisition of "Yahoo", it must not be leaked. This vigilance made Robin Li suppress his enthusiasm immediately, but this He was excited but had to find an outlet, otherwise he would definitely go crazy.
"Pedal", "Pedal", "Pedal", Li Yanhong stomped three times on the ground with all his strength. Lin Feng only felt that the whole floor was shaking, and it was conceivable how excited Li Yanhong was.
Indeed, Robin Li should be excited! Because if "Yahoo" is acquired, "Baidu Portal" will truly have the strength to challenge "gle". Thinking of this, all the unhappiness Li Yanhong had just dissipated. At this moment, he is eager to raise funds, and how can he acquire "Yahoo" without financing. Although once the financing is raised, the shares of "Baidu Portal" will definitely be diluted, but if "Yahoo" is acquired, the market value of the stocks owned by each person will be completely different, and it may increase by ten times or a hundred times.
"Mr. Li, now I need you to go back and prepare all the materials for the listing, and at the same time prepare the relevant materials for the negotiation with 'Yahoo'!" Lin Feng explained the relevant matters to Li Yanhong.
"Don't worry, boss, leave it all to me. As long as we can succeed this time, we will definitely have the strength to challenge 'gle'!" Robin Li said firmly.
Lin Feng nodded, and then let his special plane send Robin Li to Beijing. Now time is running out, "Microsoft" has started to contact "Yahoo", Lin Feng does not know how far "Microsoft" and "Yahoo" are now, whether "Yahoo" agrees with "Microsoft" or rejects, Lin Feng has no idea. But no matter what, first do your own preparations before you can seize the opportunity.
When Li Yanhong was sent away from the United States by special plane, Lin Feng also held emergency board meetings in his three banks through the Internet. Lin Feng conveyed his decision to raise a large amount of funds to the shareholders of the three banks through online video. However, Lin Feng didn't tell everyone what he needed to do this time, he just told the directors of the three banks that he had a plan, and he planned to inject capital into an IT company that was about to go public to expand new sources of income for the banks. After all, this matter needs to be kept a high degree of confidentiality, Lin Feng does not want the matter to be exposed without even mentioning it, and it will make it more difficult for him to acquire "Yahoo".
Regarding Lin Feng's vague plan, the three banks behaved differently.
"Second Bank", as a bank in which Lin Feng actually holds more than 50% of the shares, although some directors of the original "Standard Chartered Bank" jumped out to object, but with Lin Feng's absolute controlling rights and the support of many directors, this investment plan was approved. All pass. You must know that in addition to the stocks held by Lin Feng, Li Zekai, Tang Jiacheng, and Zheng Zhiheng also hold 2.29% of the shares of the "Second Bank". It can be said that Lin Feng can control more than 75% of the shares, and any agreement can be reached.
As for the "Bank of East Asia", the situation is much more troublesome. Because of the "Bank of East Asia", although Lin Feng counted Liao Bizhu and Guoco Group's shares, it was just 50.1%, but this time Lin Feng's proposal was firmly opposed by the Li family. Originally, the "Bank of East Asia" was founded by the Li family, but in the end, with the help of Lin Feng, Liao Bizhu was deprived of the chairmanship. This made the Li family, especially Li Guobao, who had an affair with Liao Bizhu, resent abroad. Therefore, Li Guobao always obstructed Lin Feng's various proposals.
However, Li Guobao has always been on the sidelines and never confronted Lin Feng face to face. Today Li Guobao was uncharacteristically, which really surprised Lin Feng. In particular, Li Guobao publicly reprimanded Lin Feng for taking advantage of his status as the largest shareholder to borrow bank funds at low interest rates, causing considerable losses to the bank.
Lin Feng frowned, feeling secretly resentful of Li Guobao's anomaly today. But this time it was related to the plan of "Baidu Portal" to acquire "Yahoo", Lin Feng didn't want to quarrel with Li Guobao at this time.
"Everyone, this financing plan will bring huge profits to the bank. I believe that every penny invested now will be earned back several times in the future!" Lin Feng looked at the crowd and said impassionedly.
"Director Lin, this plan is unclear. As the company's general manager and one of the executive directors, I firmly oppose it. Unless you can give all our directors a convincing reason, I firmly disagree." Li Guobao said coldly.
Lin Feng frowned even deeper, this Li Guobao was purely looking for faults today. Lin Feng glanced at Li Guobao, Li Guobao just hummed his nose and rolled his eyes, he didn't care about Lin Feng at all.
Something is looking a little off! —— Lin Feng pondered secretly in his heart. But now is not the time to worry about this. Now is the key to get the "Bank of East Asia" to agree to this financing plan. After all, it is far from enough to rely on only one bank for the financing of up to 40 billion US dollars, and three banks must contribute at the same time.
"Okay, I won't say much about this financing plan. But I can guarantee that after half a year, this financing will bring you at least 3 times the return!" Lin Feng used it a little bit." The Buddhist lion roars". Although the "Buddhist Lion's Roar" magical skill has been spread through the Internet, it no longer has the deterrent power of the sound waves, but its loud and high-pitched voice still makes many people feel frightened.
What a loud voice! ——Li Guobao was secretly astonished.
You know, when Lin Feng and Li Guobao first met, they had just practiced the "breathing technique" taught by Wang Meng. At that time, there was no "lion's roar". Of course, Li Guobao had never experienced it. Now that Lin Feng has practiced for so long, This roar, even though it was transmitted through the network media and then transmitted through the sound card, still made Li Guobao tremble. He is 65 years old this year, but he can't stand such a sudden fright. The whole person's face was pale, and it took a while to recover.
"Now that there are people who object, let's start voting!" Lin Feng said.
Everyone looked at each other and nodded.
"Then those who oppose this financing plan, please raise your hand!" Lin Feng said.
As Lin Feng's words fell to the ground, Li Guobao was the first to raise his hand. Under the leadership of Li Guobao, many shareholders of the "Bank of East Asia" raised their hands one after another, and only the representatives of the "Guoco Group", Liao Bizhu, and Lin Feng were left on the field.
Lin Feng smiled. Don't look at Li Guobao dancing so fiercely, but in fact it is impossible for him to turn the sky upside down. With his own shares plus Liao Bizhu's shares, as well as the shares of "Guoco Group", the "Bank of East Asia" can't turn the sky.
But just when Lin Feng was confidently preparing to pass this financing plan, an unexpected situation happened.
Liao Bizhu actually raised her hand!
Lin Feng was stunned on the spot! The representative of Guoco Group was also stunned! For a long time, Liao Bizhu absolutely agreed with all of Lin Feng's plans, and she could be said to be Lin Feng's loyal ally. Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, Liao Bizhu betrayed her!
