Chapter 1906: Shares, Not Money
Chapter 1906: Shares, Not Money
Yaoyao felt like she was floating back home, her body full of air, and she was swollen all the way home. When she got home, she couldn't wait to video chat with Zhong Meihui.
Regardless of the time difference, as soon as the video was called, he started cursing Chen Xiaoli, saying that she was crazy about money.
They actually wanted 40 billion dollars, or US dollars, to sell the company. Zhong Meihui and Yaoyao each held %. If Chen Xiaoli sold the company at this price, she could get million.
However, the price was too high. Even at the height of Love at First Sight, this price was at a market premium. Moreover, the company was not as good as before, and Chen Xiaoli was simply wishful thinking to get this price.
"Two billion dollars?" Zhong Meihui was also a little surprised. Was Chen Xiaoli's positioning of the company a little too high?
Yun Shanshan probably also felt that Zhong Meihui in Beijing was going to sell the company, so she told Yaoyao today that she wanted to terminate the contracts with those big internet celebrities.
The accounts in their hands also want to belong to them personally. They have made a lot of money for the company over the years. If the company still develops according to the previous strategic direction, Yun Shanshan will definitely not terminate the contract with them.
Even if the contract is terminated, the management rights of the account will still belong to the company.
However, if those individuals who are in trouble at the company continue to stay here, they may disappear in the future.
"Are there any companies interested in acquiring us?" With such a high price, even Mr. Li would have to think twice. But even if there was an intention, they would definitely want the entire work team to be sold as a package.
The entire management system of Love at First Sight is already perfect and can even be considered a model in the industry. The adhesion between the big internet celebrities and the company is also very high.
Many people want to acquire the company. In addition to the reputation of love at first sight, they are naturally attracted by the team.
"Yes, Chen Xiaoli's intention is to sell it as a package, which is why she wants such a high price. But it seems that those investors are in a wait-and-see state." After Yaoyao finished cursing, she felt much better.
Then he remembered to ask, "I didn't disturb your rest. I was just angry. Why is this person so obsessed with money now?"
Anyway, she has someone keeping an eye on her, and if Chen Xiaoli finds any movement, she will be informed immediately.
Love at First Sight was going to be acquired, which was a good thing for now. She had founded and run the company, and she knew that the name of the company alone was worth hundreds of millions.
If Chen Xiaoli hadn't been making such a fuss in recent years, even 2 billion US dollars would not have been left unclaimed until now.
But at the moment, there is no better choice than to be acquired. If the company leaves it alone, who knows what negative impact will arise before Chen Xiaoli leaves.
She was certain that Zhong Meihui had woken up and was planning to liquidate all her assets and then run away.
Even if the company is not acquired in the end, it will definitely become notorious.
She could only wait for news from Yaoyao. Fortunately, Yaoyao participated in the company when it was founded. Otherwise, all the things today were decided by Chen Xiaoli alone, and she would not be able to implement any countermeasures in time.
Chen Xiaoli was impatient, but she didn't want to lower the price until she had no other choice. A few people had inquired about it, but none of them had contacted Zhong Meihui.
However, the other party seemed to be very interested in acquiring Love at First Sight. He even came directly to the door and wanted to talk to Zhong Meihui in person.
The two of them met and fell in love at first sight, but the conversation didn't seem to be very pleasant. When the other party left, he was obviously not as excited as when he came.
According to the information provided by Yun Shanshan, the other party is a man named Zhang Yilin, the boss of a company called Byte Dance.
"Zhang Yilin?" Zhong Meihui heard the name and felt like she had heard it somewhere before.
Yaoyao didn't have any useful information. When they were chatting in the office, it was only Chen Xiaoli and him. After leaving, Chen Xiaoli seemed a little dissatisfied with this meeting.
Yaoyao guessed that this cooperation would probably not be achieved.
However, as far as she knows, Bytedance, a company that also makes short videos, was founded around 10. In the past few years, its development was mostly suppressed by some large companies.
Especially companies owned by big bosses like Mr. Li who are willing to spend money are very unfriendly to such newly established small companies.
In recent years, the development momentum has been very good, and the operation strategy is also very good. It seems that it has some relationship with several popular stars, and occasionally invites stars to help in short videos.
The fan stickiness is not very clear, but although live streaming sales have not yet begun, the traffic has always been considerable.
"It's only in the past few years that Love at First Sight has been in such a mess. Otherwise, how could such a small company have the ability to acquire us." Yaoyao clicked her tongue. It would be fine if Zhong Meihui really didn't want to go on the right track.
The key point is that the company was almost bankrupt because of an outsider.
"Zhang Yilin? What do you want to do with him?" Zuoshou looked up casually and looked at the person who hung up the phone and asked him to investigate Zhang Yilin's information.
"He wants to acquire Love at First Sight, but it seems he and Chen Xiaoli failed to reach an agreement." She wanted to see the other company's qualifications and whether it had any intention to acquire it.
Zuoshou made a direct phone call to ask Zhang Yilin to find time to come here.
However, Zhang Yilin had already appeared in the ward at night. When he saw the person lying on the bed and his left hand following that person's lead, he didn't react and wondered how he was going to negotiate this cooperation.
"The boss I fell in love with at first sight, Zhong Meihui." After Zuo Shou finished introducing himself, Zhang Yilin stood there in a daze for a long while.
It was completely unbelievable. The person lying on the bed was completely different from the person he remembered and the person he had seen a few days ago.
Putting aside the fact that they had met a few years ago, even the photos of her that were all over the Internet before didn't have much in common with the person lying on the bed.
"I won't tell you the reason. She just wants to ask if you really want to acquire Love at First Sight." The left hand was simple and straightforward.
The whole story needs to be told from the beginning, and there is no need for Zhang Yilin to know so much.
However, as the boss of a company with a market value of tens of billions, his mind works very quickly. He probably understands what happened to the guy in Beijing.
No wonder, when he went to meet Zhong Meihui today, she didn't seem to recognize him at all. It seemed that she didn't know him at all.
Even when it was mentioned that it was thanks to her guidance many years ago that ByteDance became what it is today, she still had no reaction.
"I am sincere in acquiring the company. But even if I agree to 2 billion US dollars, other shareholders of the company will not agree." Zhang Yilin admitted that they also did a valuation on Love at First Sight.
Even if there is still some market, it is not worth so much money.
