It was different when Boss Ma came forward, and quickly negotiated the financing for Zhalang Weibo.
Alibaba and China Future Capital will invest 100 million US dollars and 50 million US dollars respectively at a post-investment valuation of 500 million US dollars, respectively holding 20% and 10% of the shares of Zhalang Weibo.
So far, Zhalang’s Weibo business has only been launched for half a year, and it is now valued at 500 million US dollars. On the one hand, Weibo has indeed developed rapidly. Now the main positions of celebrities and public figures have shifted from blogs to Weibo. Moreover, Zhalang's Weibo is backed by Zhalang, and there are also Zhalang's resources in it.
On the other hand, of course, Boss Ma made some concessions. Otherwise, according to the current situation, Zhalang is still very confident in Weibo. If the valuation is not raised, the other party will not agree to their financing, at least not Would you agree now, and then wait until the number of users is higher, wouldn’t it be bad to use a high valuation to raise money?
In this way, Zhalang began to operate Weibo independently. Of course, as the major shareholders of Weibo, they still have to give the resources they should give, and now they can also gather resources including Boss Ma and William Chen to promote Microblogging development. If Twitter had not withdrawn from the Huaguo market, they would certainly not agree to Chen William's investment, but now Twitter has withdrawn from Huaguo, and they have also received definite assurance from Chen William that Twitter has not returned to Huaguo. The market plan, so they are relieved to let Chen William, the owner of Twitter, participate in this financing, so that they can also use Chen William's identity to attract users.
Of course, that's also because it's not easy for Twitter to return to the Chinese market, so William Chen can only invest in Weibo on the same track, otherwise he will use more resources to promote Twitter in China, and Not Weibo.
After signing the financing contract with Zhalang, Boss Ma told Chen William about another thing, that is, a Yanjing official who had dealt with him, sent a message through him, hoping to meet Chen William , As for the purpose, Boss Ma has nothing to hide. He must have taken a fancy to Chen William's funds and hope that he can invest in Yanjing.
"Old Ma, give me a letter of approval, what is the specific aspect? If it is about investment, I have invested a lot in Yanjing. Huayi Company, Xiaomi Company, Youku.com, Meituan.com, plus this time. Zhalang Weibo, and the subsequent investment in the film and television industry, I don’t believe they don’t know.”
"Haha, William, you need to say one more thing. Didn't you invest in Fan Bingbing? That's not a small amount of money."
Yo, old horse, when did you gossip so much and say to me, you and Zhao Feite won't be much better after two years.
Chen William said lightly: "It is originally one of the investments in the film and television industry. Celebrities are one of the most important resources in this industry, and more cooperation will be deepened in the future."
Well, Boss Ma originally wanted to make fun of Chen William, but this kid didn't even think that he was a pestle, and he said these words out of shame, and he admired it.
"Actually, I guess it's mainly because of your joint venture company. You've been making too much noise in the capital, and you just bought the tallest building in the mainland and built the building there. I guess Yanjing is here. While seeing these, I also have some ideas, I hope you will also come here to invest."
When Boss Ma said this, Chen William also understood. Just like the companies he is investing in now, although most of them have good future potential, it seems that the volume is still limited. These first-tier cities in China are also mutually exclusive. There are comparisons, so he spends a lot of money in the magic capital, so Yanjing can't sit still, and it is normal for him to come to invest.
However, William Chen originally planned to develop the business of Troup-Chen Business Management Company to Yanjing, which was considered a great joy for both parties, so he agreed immediately and went to see him with Boss Ma tomorrow. official.
After going back, William Chen told Ivanta about it. If he went to talk about real estate investment tomorrow, he would definitely take her and invest through Troup-Chen Asset Management Company.
"However, William, isn't this a bit aggressive? Our company doesn't have much money now. If we rely entirely on financing, then the company's debt is too high."
Ivanta said with some concern that Troup-Chen Business Management Company, in addition to the initial purchase of the World Financial Center, took out part of the real money, but still raised $1 billion, and the rest of the building construction, almost no money was taken out, It is mainly through the policies of various places that the land is acquired with bank loans, so it is really scary to look at the debt now.
However, William Chen is not too worried about this. Now it seems that the company's debt is extremely high, but with the development of Huaguo's real estate industry, in a few years, the value of these properties will increase a lot, and it can fully cover the debt.
He said to Ivanta:
"Don't worry, my dear, I said, I will support you. Next, I will invest $1 billion in our company in the form of bonds through the Meta Group. Now is a very good opportunity. , we need to grasp it, and it will not be easy to have such a rapid development opportunity when the subprime mortgage crisis is over.”
Hearing William Chen say this, Ivanta was relieved. In the form of corporate bonds, getting $1 billion in funds from William Chen's Meta Group will not affect the equity structure of Troup-Chen Commercial Management Company, and the interest set by William Chen will be very low at that time. Wanta is completely confident to make some big moves in Yanjing.
Anyway, it will be the end of the month soon, and William Chen's investment in gold futures is about to be recovered. He now has a large amount of cash, which is a mere $1 billion.
The specifications of the meeting the next day were somewhat unexpected by William Chen. It turned out that the leaders of Yanjing City came to talk to them in person. But it makes sense to think about it. After all, when Bill Gates came to China, he had seen bigger leaders. William Chen's current net worth is not too different from his.
Before William Chen was in Europe, it was not rare to see senior officials of those countries, so he behaved very appropriately at this time.
Regarding the topic of welcoming them to Yanjing for investment raised by the other party, Ivanta is also very direct. According to what they discussed last night, he said that Troup-Chen Business Management Company also intends to come to Yanjing for development. After all, this is China. China's most important city, they are also very confident in the development of China.
After the other party introduced some policies for attracting investment, Ivanta directly proposed that he hoped to acquire an iconic building in Yanjing, just like acquiring the World Financial Center in Magic Capital.
"Do you have any goals?"
"Yes, after our investigation, the most promising one is the main building of China World Trade Center Phase III. We hope to acquire this skyscraper."
As soon as Ivanta's voice fell, the opposite side became a little moved, which is really a big deal. However, thinking that the other party directly acquired the tallest building in the mainland in Modu, then it is not surprising that he came to Yanjing and acquired the tallest building in Yanjing.
The third phase of Huaguo International Trade Center referred to as the third phase of international trade, is the tallest building in Yanjing at this time.
The third phase of China World Trade Center is located in the central business district of Yanjing. It was completed and capped in 2007. It has just been completed. Its main building is 330 meters high and has 80 floors. It was jointly invested and constructed by China World Trade Center and Guo Brothers Group.
It forms a building complex of 1.1 million square meters together with the first phase of international trade and the second phase of international trade, and is the largest international trade center in the world today.
Boss Ma was also present today. After Ivanta said that he hoped to acquire the main building of the third phase of China World Trade Center, he also widened his eyes and glanced at Chen William, this little brother, he has come to release the satellite again today.
And you look like this, you are a leader of the army. When someone asks you about your investment intention, you directly say yes, and you want to buy the tallest building in Yanjing, so how do you answer? To let or not to let? If you don't let it, doesn't it mean that the investment will not be allowed to invest?
In the end, the leader still smiled and said:
"If you have this idea, we all support it. You are welcome to invest. However, commercial matters are best solved through business. We can also help coordinate, and I hope you can reach a smooth cooperation."
In this kind of thing, they can only help coordinate and let the two sides sit down and talk to see if they can talk. It’s best if you can reach an agreement. If you can’t reach it, you can go for other investment projects.
