Chapter 1171 Winning the bid at a sky-high price (4K)
Bingxin has an extra fund from shareholders' future earnings, which can make the company's operation smoother, and it can also allow Qiu Ciyun to let go of the production lines in Shencheng and Xi'an.
But this matter was handled relatively low-key. According to Fang Zhuo's words, it was purely an internal income adjustment, and everyone still made money.
On October 10, Sunday, the recent bidding work at CNR was about to end. Fang Zhuo took a day off after Qiu Ciyun came to Shanghai to take over some of his appearance tasks, and invited Xiong Xiaoge, Zhang Xiaolong, Zhou Xin's family, etc. people.
Xiong Xiaoge was a little gloomy. This time, Ice Core’s financing was definitely a success. However, it deviated from some of my personal expectations, and clearly said that it was about $2 million, but in the end IDG still made $3.75 million.
——They are so determined, Old Bear, if you can't do it, just pay more, and our matter will be settled.
Xiong Xiaoge only felt that he was working with Mr. Fang, no matter what, he had to be cut off to some extent.
Some bureaus get out of shape while doing it, and they entangle themselves while doing it.
The sun is poisonous.
"Ke Ke, pass it to you, Uncle Xiong." Fang Zhuo commanded Zhou Xin's daughter Zhou Keke.
Xiong Xiaoge took the barbecue, took two bites, and sighed: "I'm on a diet recently, next time you don't need to call me for something like this."
"Didn't you point me out?" Fang Zhuo said without raising his head.
"Since you said that, then I have to say, you can't kidnap me just because of the ice core." Xiong Xiaoge had little power to fight back this time, and had no choice at all.
He found that he and Goldman Sachs, DCM, Deutsche Bank and other institutional shareholders are the same in the end!
Although I proposed to start with Deutsche Bank first, and knowing the communication with Goldman Sachs, I also tacitly negotiated with DCM, but in the end, Mr. Fang pressed the significance of the ice core and the conditions of the three companies...
Even, he was beaten...
Might as well not know in advance!
"Ke Ke, give you another string, Uncle Xiong." Fang Zhuo directed the little girl, "Tell him, this is your Uncle Fang's apology."
Zhou Keke picked up another skewer of barbecue, ran over with small steps, and handed it to the complaining Uncle Xiong.
Xiong Xiaoge himself was old enough to have no resistance to the little girl whose eyes were like crescent moons when she smiled. He reluctantly took the barbecue and smiled at Zhou Keke.
Zhou Keke immediately turned around and shouted while running: "Uncle Fang, Uncle Xiong wants to forgive you!!"
"Hey..." Xiong Xiaoge waved feebly at the bouncing figure of the little girl. He hasn't spoken yet, so don't forgive him for your uncle...
Xiong Xiaoge's desire to speak was greeted with laughter from everyone.
Fang Zhuo touched the head of the blinking little girl, who seemed to be asking for credit, and invited her to eat a bunch of squid that was freshly marketed this month.
He chatted with Zhang Xiaolong, who was also waiting for the bidding results in Beijing, about Yixin's current situation, then sat next to Lao Xiong, handed him a bottle of beer, and said in a nutshell: "This time I'm very grateful to everyone, I It's just a notification."
"Hey, Mr. Fang, did I lose my memory? It wasn't two years ago, it was two days ago..." Xiong Xiaoge couldn't laugh or cry, "That's not what you told me two days ago."
"In fact, it's almost the same. I really didn't make any preparations. This time Ice Core took the money thanks to everyone." Fang Zhuo said, "I'll let you know that if you are willing to invest, this thing will happen."
Xiong Xiaoge felt a faint mockery that he was a part of this "everyone".
"But no matter what, the result is good and acceptable. Ice Core will continue to use funds and industry status to exert its influence." Fang Zhuo pondered for a while, "If nothing happens, you won't lose money. "
Xiong Xiaoge thought about it and asked: "Mr. Fang, how likely is this 'if'?"
Fang Zhuo thought for a while, then shook his head: "It's hard to say, it's really hard to say."
"Boss Fang, just tell me your judgment. I have a big heart, so it's fine." Xiong Xiaoge still wanted to hear a more practical answer.
Many thoughts flashed through Fang Zhuo's mind, and he gave an answer: "At least it can be listed."
He added another sentence: "Whether it's a loss or not, it's another story, um, the worst case."
Xiong Xiaoge had a certain level of psychological construction, but frowned, but instead paid attention to the logic and expectations behind the answer, and asked, "I think the current environment of the center core and ice core is okay?"
Fang Zhuo let out a "huh" and said with a smile: "Anyway, when you can eat and drink, you can eat and drink well, store more fat, and you will be more comfortable during the winter."
Aren't bears storing fat for the winter?
Xiong Xiaoge felt that Mr. Fang's words were intentional or unintentional, but when he turned his head and received Zhou Keke's feed, he couldn't bear to refuse, so he accepted it silently.
"Delicious and delicious, come to see the party prepared by Mr. Qi during the Chinese New Year." Xiong Xiaoge smiled and mentioned the Yike annual meeting.
"There seems to be a more formal rehearsal at the beginning of next month, but I can take a look at it." Fang Zhuo thought about the schedule, and at the end of the month, he will see if Yixin can win the Spring Festival Gala cooperation.
For the bidding for the Spring Festival Gala this time, it is said that there are some mutual tests in the capital.
Whether it's Fang Zhuo's self-confidence in the circle of friends before, or Sohu's interview with Zhang Xiaolong, it all shows that he is determined to win the Spring Festival Gala this time.
On the other hand, Penguin didn't see any movement in public opinion, which made people feel that they were holding back.
According to Zhang Xiaolong's report, the Beijing team has already released the news that they have put out a price of at least 4 million yuan, and the bid is set at 6 million yuan.
If the penguins can exceed 6 million, there is no way but to accept the result.
Fang Zhuo had a free day in Fusheng. In addition to talking about Bingxin's financing this time, he also talked about Tesco's ongoing listing roadshow. Su Wei is busy with these in Xiangjiang now.
As long as e-buy is listed, the investment in e-commerce can be increased, and the distance with Taobao will continue to catch up. In addition to this important meaning, the company has been looking forward to this for a long time.
The Yike Department is good at everything... It's just that the listing speed is quite slow, even those that have already been listed can be withdrawn...
It's so easy, this e-buy has reached a symbolic step, and everyone is very happy.
Others said that it is precisely because the president of e-buy is Mrs. Su Wei Su, she is a big coffee with the right to speak, otherwise, e-buy would have been suppressed by Mr. Fang for two more years.
Rumors are not worth refuting.
In addition to these, investors including Xiong Xiaoge also had an inexplicable feeling that what is listed on e-buy is not the market, but their own lost youth!
Oh yes, there is still a "youth" in the Yike department squatting there, saying yes, the old tree will bloom next year.
Xiong Xiaoge drank a lot, and couldn't help mentioning this complicated mental journey in front of the person involved, but he always dismissed it when he saw Fang, and felt a little uncomfortable, so he turned to another person who had experienced it to seek empathy.
"Mr. Zhou, we investors have waited and waited for your medical department. That year was also the beginning of everyone's relationship at Hang Lung 23. You must not lose the chain next year. You have to give us a good ending."
Zhou Xin is in charge of the medical department, and he hasn't shown much in recent years.
Hearing Mr. Xiong's words, he smiled: "Mr. Xiong, you see that you talk a lot. Some of them will be listed."
Xiong Xiaoge could only propose a toast: "A dog of a feather, a dog of a feather! That's how your Yi Ke Department is!"
"I propose, let's toast Mr. Xiong, an important investor of the Yike Department!" Zhou Xin got up, held up the wine glass, and divided the scope, what "you" and "you".
I don't know Yi Ke's true face, but Xiong is in our company.
Everyone drank together and gave a toast to Mr. Xiong, one of China's number one investors...
Xiong Xiaoge was somewhat satisfied, being a friend of Mr. Fang and a friend of time, better late than never.
……
On October 10, the last day of this month, CNR announced the bidding news.
In addition to the new year's advertising space on CCTV's various channels, the most eye-catching thing this year is the new exclusive partner of the Spring Festival Gala.
In fact, a de facto exclusive cooperation was formed last year, and this year it is more like a mechanism to establish this position.
This time, major Internet companies have participated in the bidding, such as the old Sohu, Netease, and Sina, the current giants Yike, Baidu, Ali, Penguin, and even the new group buying favorites such as Dang.com and Tuanbao.com.
Everyone has witnessed the explosive spread of Yixin last time, so they want to reproduce or innovate. Of course, there are also those who clearly come to watch the fun, like Sina and Weibo.
Even the president of Weibo, Wang Xing, came to the scene in person, wanting to see who will win the final prize.
According to a detail that everyone couldn't help mentioning when they went back, when the winning bid was announced, Wang Xing couldn't help but slapped his thigh. I don't know if it was annoyance or shock or other abundant emotions. I felt more excited than Penguin.
As the exclusive new media partner of the 2011 Spring Festival Gala, Penguin won the bid at an unprecedented price of 10.6 billion.
10.6 billion!
A price that makes people feel like someone must be crazy!
Last year, the same cooperation with Yike was 5000 million...
Even though last year was a surprise attack with no proven results, Penguin, a direct competitor, took this cooperation at an undeniably sky-high price, which is still extremely shocking.
Penguins really hurt!
It's really urgent!
At the bidding site, some companies couldn't help asking Yixin for the bidding price, but they got a candid answer - 6.06 million.
This answer led to a string of prices on the spot, and it was found that Yixin was really No.2.
From 5000 million to 6.06 million, it's not that Yixin disrespects the crazy effect brought by the Spring Festival Gala. It's really that the penguins are already a little crazy...
News of the winning bid for the Spring Festival Gala quickly spread across the Internet.
——"The Spring Festival Gala auctioned a sky-high price of 10.6 billion cooperation, Penguin is bound to become an exclusive cooperation"
——"Yike used 5000 million to leverage Penguin's 10.6 billion"
—— "From Mobile Phone to TV: Yi and Goose Controversy"
—— "Offensive and defensive swaps, IM software competition adds unexpected factors"
—— "A contest between subversion and learning"
Penguin won the exclusive cooperation at a high price, and there are almost no other answers. It has fallen behind Yixin's letter and will definitely reproduce the electronic red envelope gameplay of last year's Spring Festival Gala.
does it worth?
Looks like a great value.
Electronic red envelopes were played on a large scale only once during the Chinese New Year, and the curiosity and freshness of the majority of users must have not been fully satisfied. Even, after a year of development in the smartphone market during the Lunar New Year in 2011, it may still bring more spectacular effect.
The basic hardware has made solid progress.
As of the end of October, although there were many companies testing the waters in the mobile communication market, Yixin and Letter, or Yike and Penguin, which have been playing for a year, have undoubtedly shown a trend of victory and defeat.
Although Penguin has been forcing traffic, this behavior has caused many users to complain, but the growth of the user scale has made the industry and the industry begin to notice the situation of active users.
The tens of millions of letters from Penguin and the tens of millions of Yike Yixin seem to be somewhat different.
The biggest killer feature of Letters in use is that it can receive QQ messages, but even so, the active users of Yike seem to have the feeling that they are obviously superior or even more than one.
A third-party organization conducted an online questionnaire to address this phenomenon, and the results repeatedly showed that the ratio of Yixin to incoming letters was above 7:3.
This active phenomenon that exceeds the proportion of the user scale can almost make people judge the battle between the two giants.
The premise is that there is no perfect marketing for the second Spring Festival Gala.
Yixin can emerge suddenly by relying on the Spring Festival Gala, but letter can't?
I'm afraid no one dares to draw conclusions lightly. After all, Penguin is still very strong. After all, the marketing model is already in front of us.
This is back to the track that Penguin is good at. It can learn and innovate again, and it can also achieve good results.
On November 11st, with the discussion of public opinion and the resurgence of instant messaging competition, news from Yike PR began to spread.
Yike intends to make an Internet Spring Festival Gala.
This news did not surprise too many people. As early as when Yike started looking for artists, this "Internet Spring Festival Gala" was circulated under the name of "annual meeting" and "early adopters of Internet evening party".
Now, it's nothing more than an official stone hammer.
The problem is that the timing of this stone hammer is rather subtle.
It just announced that Penguin has become the exclusive partner of CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and here it is announced that it will launch an Internet Spring Festival Gala... Isn't this going to compete with CCTV Spring Festival Gala?
What is Yi Ke thinking?
Or, what kind of smoke bomb is Yike releasing?
Is Yi Ke and Penguin fighting now, or Yi Ke and Spring Festival Gala?
The nature of the incident appears to have changed somewhat.
But when everyone was a little unpredictable, Penguin had already held another meeting for the latest news to discuss the influence of Yike Gala.
And a piece of news that didn't cause much trouble before jumped into view again.
Yike acquires PPS!
I've been waiting for it for a long time, right?
Yike is definitely not professional in doing the gala, but its energy and planning made the penguin a little uneasy. Instead, it immediately responded to the situation with the Spring Festival Gala, and passed on the news that it had got it and caught the wind.
I heard that many artists were invited by Yi Ke?What are the kings and queens?What if CCTV invites you again?
Penguin believes that CCTV is also unwilling to see accidents happen.
On November 11, when Fang Zhuo inspected the rehearsal for the first time, he received a report from Director Tang Peifeng who was in charge of the party, saying that the four heavenly kings had all received invitations from CCTV.
"Huh? We are a grass-roots team. Are they paying so much attention and responding so quickly?" Fang Zhuo was a little surprised, "Then how should we solve it now?"
Since Tang Peifeng was recruited to PPS, this was the first time he saw Mr. Fang. He said cautiously: "Mr. Fang, I think so. We can adjust the order of performances regardless of whether they agree or not according to their personal schedule."
"The CCTV Spring Festival Gala asked them to be in the front row, and immediately after the broadcast over there, they would come to our side by private jet, so that we can take care of both."
Fang Zhuo heard: "Well...the private jet is no problem, but can this distance be in time?"
It takes more than an hour to travel from Beijing to Shanghai by private plane, and a car is required.
"We can only choose." Tang Peifeng was also a little helpless.
Fang Zhuo thought for a few seconds, and asked, "Then how about we change to the capital? They will come directly to continue the broadcast after they finish broadcasting from there. Isn't that all right?"
Tang Peifeng was taken aback: "Then our stage upgrade in Shanghai..."
This cost a lot of money.
"We can only choose." Fang Zhuo smiled and quoted what Director Tang said just now, "Isn't it?"
Tang Peifeng understood, take the big and give up the small!
Anyway, we are a grass-roots team!
