Reborn As The Billionaire National Husband, The Boss Of Populus Euphratica!

Chapter 230 New Changes In Weibo’S Equity! (3, Please Subscribe Automatically)

Ma Xiaoyun stretched out five fingers as he spoke, with a smile on his face. Wang Cong also clapped, feeling happy.

"Okay, Mr. Ma was generous and directly invested US$1.5 billion. From now on, Weibo will be Alibaba's solid partner and we will help each other through thick and thin."

The other two people were a little shocked, especially Jian Hongcheng.

He cooperated with Wang Cong and invested in Weibo in the first round.

During Weibo’s first round, the market valuation was one billion US dollars, and during its second round of valuation.

The market valuation has reached about three billion US dollars.

Now in the third round, the market valuation has more than doubled again, to US$7 billion?

This growth rate is indeed relatively fast compared to most Internet companies.

But when I think about the special nature of Weibo, the number of current Weibo users and its online names.

It is quite dazzling in the entire domestic Internet field and is among the best?

So it's not surprising that there is a valuation of 7 billion, and Jian Hongcheng came before him.

I also estimated the market value of Weibo with several teams, and the price they estimated was also around this.

Now Teacher Ma Xiaoyun and Ma have made a move, and the deal is worth 1.5 billion US dollars!

The pressure was put on Jian Hongcheng and Mahua Teng.

Mahuateng frowned slightly, he also valued the prospects of Weibo.

Even when Sohu Weibo was first established, Mahua was eyeing it.

Mahuateng is greedy for the market of Sohu Weibo, and wants to imitate Tengxun Weibo.

But the results were indeed dismal. They couldn't compete with Sohu Weibo and were beaten to pieces.

It turns out that some imitations can drink soup, and there are benefits.

But some imitations are useless and end badly. Tencent Weibo is the latter.

So Mahuateng doesn’t want to copy Weibo anymore.

Now Wang Cong invites him to invest in Sohu Weibo because he trusts him. This is also an outlet for Tencent.

After thinking for a while, Mahuateng also spoke in a low voice.

"Since Mr. Ma has already offered 1.5 billion US dollars, I can't be stingy, so I will give 2 billion US dollars to test the waters and have fun.

Mahuateng's words made Wang Cong feel elated again and very happy.

Ma Xiaoyun’s 1.5 billion + Mahua Teng’s 2 billion, that’s 3.5 billion US dollars!

After Mahua Teng finished speaking, Ma Xiaoyun nodded without speaking, but the smell of gunpowder between the two was indeed quite strong.

After all, in the current domestic market, Alibaba and Tencent are two companies that were established very close to each other.

It has also become a domestic giant, competing for hegemony between two poles, with some collisions and competition for resources in many fields.

In the main battlefield of public opinion, these two large companies will only pay more and more attention to it, become more tit-for-tat, and refuse to give in.

After both of them finished speaking, Jian Hongcheng was the only one left, feeling a little helpless.

Ma Xiaoyun and Ma Huateng are both core figures in their respective companies and have a lot of power.

But Jian Hongcheng is different. Although his background is the famous Sequoia Capital, he cannot represent Sequoia Capital.

When Weibo raised funds before, he only came up with the price after discussing with senior executives at Sequoia Capital.

But now, one 1.5 billion and one 2 billion put Jian Hongcheng under a lot of pressure.

Even though he himself values ​​the prospects of Weibo, there are so many fields and projects that Sequoia Capital invests in that it is impossible to spend the applied funds on one project.

Jian Hongcheng knew very well that his and Ma Xiaoyun's shares were the same before, 10%.

And now, if he does not invest at least 1.5 billion US dollars, then their equity in Sequoia Capital will definitely be diluted.

This means that the previous efforts have been slowly wasted.

"Huh, let me discuss it with the company and see if we can continue to pursue the investment."

Jian Hongcheng spoke in a low voice, his tone a little dull.

Wang Cong nodded, and then saw Jian Hongcheng going out to make a phone call first.

In the box, Ma Xiaoyun glanced at Wang Cong again and spoke with a smile.

"Nephew, you are amazing now. After Weibo's third round of financing, you are worth tens of billions.

In my impression, among the rich second generation in China, no one is more powerful than you.

You can eat such a big piece of Weibo cake, your vision is really too vicious. "

"In the future, you will definitely be better than your father in the Huaxia business district. Taking over the Yuanda Group is just around the corner."

Hearing Ma Xiaoyun's praise, Wang Cong shook his head, but he was still happy in his heart.

Thinking back to that year's goal of 10 billion, we are about to achieve it, and the efficiency has increased by about half, which is amazing!

Wang Cong himself did not expect that this small goal of 10 billion would come so soon.

It seems that I have to set a bigger goal later, otherwise it won't be that difficult.

It's not very fun, and it's not conducive to stimulating his fighting spirit.

"Uncle Ma, I'm just lucky. I happened to hit Sohu Weibo, hahaha."

"And to be honest, I have little interest in taking over the Yuanda Group, and to be honest, I have little interest in real estate."

"I now have a new investment direction."

"What? Wang Cong, you just returned from the beautiful country not long ago and invested in Riot Games. Now you have a new investment direction. What is it?"

The Mahuateng next to him couldn't help but speak curiously when he heard Wang Cong's words.

Tengcent is actually an investment company, and will get involved in any field that can make money and have a high rate of return.

My previous investment in Riot Games was just an attempt. I originally wanted to buy more shares of Riot Games next year.

Unexpectedly, Wang Cong bought the bottom of the company halfway and even took away the last 8% of his equity.

This made Mahua Teng a little bit dumbfounded.

But it is just a game company, and the future of League of Legends has not yet emerged, so Mahuateng is not a pity.

It will take a few years for Mahuateng to see League of Legends becoming the most popular game in the world.

I'm sure my intestines are full of regret, but there is no regret medicine in the world.

When Wang Cong was about to give the answer, Jian Hongcheng came in, looking a little depressed.

"I just had a serious discussion with the company's senior management, and I am very convinced that Weibo has a bright future.

But those senior executives don't seem to trust me very much. They are not willing to invest more than 1.5 billion US dollars in Weibo. They will give me a maximum of 700 million US dollars. "

Jian Hongcheng shook his head as he spoke, looking a little helpless, but there was nothing he could do about it.

After all, he is just a managing investor of Sequoia Capital and does not have much say.

Jian Hongcheng's reply made Wang Ma Xiaoyun and Ma Huateng smile.

If Sequoia Capital does not pursue the investment, it means that Sequoia Capital's shares will be diluted and will be lower than those of Mahua Teng and Ma Xiaoyun.

Wang Cong also nodded to express his understanding.

If Sequoia Capital pursues the investment, he will be happier, but if it does not pursue the investment, it will not have a big impact.

After all, the first two people have already invested a lot, making him full.

"Okay, since Sequoia Capital doesn't pursue the investment, Weibo's third round of financing will be over and the equity will also change."

"Teacher Ma's current shares are 20%, Uncle Ma's shares are 23%, Sequoia Capital has only 7% in cash, and I am still the largest shareholder

There are five percent days.

Wang Cong stood up and spoke loudly, with some light in his eyes.

For him, Weibo is the center of domestic Internet public opinion, and he must never hand over control.

So despite raising a large amount of funds, the main say is still in the hands of Wang Cong!

No matter how much Ma Xiaoyun and Mahuateng add, it is impossible to threaten Wang Cong’s dominant position on Weibo!
