Rebirth of the Evil Life

After the star charity performance, Lin Feng sent the stars away from the capital airport. After all, they are all superstars, and they are all very busy. This time, I can spare time to come to Beijing to participate in the charity performance tonight. First, I came here for a good cause. The second is to look at the face of the four heavenly kings. Of course, Lin Feng's plagiarized song "Beijing Welcomes You" also made many superstars look up to Lin Fenggao, and they all left phone calls, which made Lin Feng face a lot of face when he was treated coldly by these superstars in Hong Kong.

A night of celebration.

The next day, Liu Yingying, Wu Zhaopu and others were going back to Shanghai to deal with company matters. Lin Zhihui and Huang Meixi also rushed back to shoot commercials, and there were various show activities. The advertising contract has been softened, and now I can only go back to work.

"Director Lin, I hope you can successfully win Baidu this time." Wu Zhaopu and others said with blessings.

"By the way, after you return to Shanghai, I have a surprise for you!" Liu Yingying's smile was particularly mysterious, and after she finished speaking, she glanced at Li Zhiyou meaningfully.

Lin Fengji was worried about the negotiation with Li Yanhong later, so he didn't care what Liu Yingying said. After seeing off a group of people, Lin Feng went directly to "Houhai Yinding Bridge Bar".

This "Houhai Yinding Bridge Bar" is unique. It has no name and no sign. The owner's surname is Bai, and he has a special personality. Li Ka-shing's brother-in-law is also "no land". Lin Feng also heard that this bar is very unique, so he reserved a seat early.

As for Lin Feng's reservation of seats early in the morning, this "white" boss is also very individual. He will open when you like to come, regardless of the time of day or night. Originally, this bar is different from other bars, maybe it is not a bar at all, at most It is a tea house for drinking. However, when you come at night and raise your glass to look at it, the Shichahai Lake and Houhai Lake under the moonlight are immersed in the cold silver light, which makes people feel very emotional.

This bar is an old wooden building, leaning against the ancient silver ingot stone bridge, with a row of wooden windows facing south, facing the cold moon with dead trees in Houhai. The cold water of the lake makes people feel chilly even in summer. Another reason why Lin Feng chose this place is that it is surrounded by former residences of celebrities. The former residence of Song Qingling, Guo Moruo, and Ye Jianying are scattered along the lake, and further away are the former sites of Prince Gong’s Mansion and Fu Jen Catholic University, and the “Houhai Yinding Bridge Bar” happens to be in the middle. There is an inexplicable feeling of dilapidated aristocrats.

Not long after, Robin Li and Xu Yong arrived. As Lin Feng expected, their eyes were bloodshot. Although their hair had been combed, they could still see the master's hard work last night. Obviously, they either couldn't sleep all night, or they didn't sleep all night.

During the day, there was no one else in the bar, only Lin Feng, Robin Li, and Xu Yong. Great for threesome talks.

Li Yanhong was also quite surprised that Lin Feng asked them to come here, but after arriving, the former residences of celebrities around and the old decoration made people feel very comfortable. If it wasn't for something in his heart, this place is indeed very suitable for drinking and chatting.

"Director Lin, please speak up if you have anything to say, everyone is a straightforward person, so you don't need to beat around the bush." ​​Li Yanhong was so tormented last night, he thought about it before coming here today, and went straight to the point.

Lin Feng was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect Robin Li to cut straight to the point. This made Lin Feng's previous rhetoric of "curve to save the country" completely useless.

"Hehe, Mr. Li, let me be blunt. I want to create a Chinese search engine company to provide search engine services for domestic netizens." When Lin Feng said this, Robin Li and Xu Yong were shocked.

Robin Li's Baidu Internet Technology Company provides Chinese search engines. If Lin Feng wants to get involved in this business, then Baidu will face fierce competition. Originally, there is a strong Google in the world, and Yahoo in Asia has been coveting the domestic market. If Lin Feng enters this market again at this time,

For Baidu, which is still in its infancy, it is definitely a major blow.

Li Yanhong and Xu Yong looked unhappy. Compared with them, Lin Feng had one of the biggest advantages - capital. Lin Feng's "Second World" is now a gold mine that is making money every day, but they have to rely on the financing of venture capital funds to survive. Comparing the two, Lin Feng has too many advantages. As for the so-called search engine technology, with Lin Feng's capital, he can buy it from Google. Yahoo's current search engine is Google's.

But what surprised Li Yanhong was that even if Lin Feng wanted to enter this industry, why did he tell them and invite them again and again. Is it a declaration of war? not like.

Lin Feng remained silent, saying that creating a new search engine company was just to put pressure on the two of them. After the two "digested" it for a while, they continued, "But I changed my mind, instead of creating a new company, it is better to find someone to cooperate with. Mr. Li, the Baidu Internet Technology Company you created by yourself is the best in China. Partner."

Lin Feng's words made the two of them relax at first, cooperation is better than competition, but then they became nervous again. Now the company's shareholding is relatively scattered. Li Yanhong and Xu Yong only own 65% of the shares. If Lin Feng comes in again, their shares will inevitably shrink again. Li Yanhong does not want the company he worked so hard to establish to be swallowed up.

Robin Li and Xu Yong looked at each other, and after pondering for a moment, Xu Yong asked, "Director Lin, why do you want to cooperate with our company? Can you tell us your purpose or interest?"

These remarks have been extremely tactful. If other people said they wanted to raise funds, Li Yanhong might have already walked away. But now the opponent is Lin Feng, he has to be cautious. Although Li Yanhong did not approve of Lin Feng's so-called cooperation plan, he had to give Lin Feng face. If he just threw up his sleeves and left, annoyed Lin Feng, and let Lin Feng really pull up the banner of search engines in China and fight against him, then Li Yanhong would really regret it. Although Li Yanhong is extremely confident in his Baidu search engine technology, with Lin Feng's financial resources, even if he wins in the end, it may be a miserable victory.

You must know that Lin Feng is only 21 years old, very young. A young man of this age is just at the time when he is full of blood. Some time ago, he said that he loves Jiangshan more than beautiful women, and dares to use the "player" of his parents to drive Lin Feng. Thinking that if he really pissed him off, he wouldn't fight himself so hard. ——So, Robin Li had to give Lin Feng face.

Lin Feng naturally didn't know Li Yanhong's thoughts, let alone being young is sometimes an advantage. However, seeing Xu Yong's question, he knew that there was still room for negotiation on this matter. Otherwise, if Li Yanhong really just throws up his sleeves and leaves, then Lin Feng will spend too much energy and financial resources if he wants to win the controlling stake in Baidu. It is easier to create a new search engine company directly.

Lin Feng smiled.

"First, I appreciate your search engine technology very much. Although Google's search engine technology is relatively advanced now, it is a foreign company after all, but yours is self-developed and has great potential. We should support domestic products." Li Yanhong and Xu Yong didn't believe what Lin Feng said.

But Lin Feng didn't expect this excuse to convince them.

"Second, you need to develop. Now Baidu has not launched its own search engine website, but only provides search engines for portal websites such as Sohu and New Wolf. I think my funds will allow you to launch Baidu's search engine website in advance." This is what really moved Robin Li and Xu Yong.

Li Yanhong was also quite moved. Although the engine technology developed by Baidu has already served portal websites such as Sohu, this is by no means their goal. Their goal is to turn Baidu into China's Google. It's just that I'm trapped in financial problems now, and I haven't been able to launch my own search engine website.

"However, we can continue to seek financing. I believe that IDG and FDJ, two venture capital funds, are very interested in continuing to raise funds." This is Robin Li's counterattack, using two world-renowned venture capital funds, IDG and FDJ, to put pressure on Lin Feng , Against Lin Feng's strength.

Lin Feng smiled. In this negotiation, he investigated Baidu's capital operation and equity allocation very early in the morning. It can be said that he knows himself and the enemy. However, Robin Li and Xu Yong only know themselves and do not know the enemy, so how could they not be led away by themselves. It is a joke to use these two world-renowned venture capital funds to exert pressure. Lin Feng dared to give a guarantee of 120 cents, and Li Yanhong absolutely did not want IDG or FDJ to continue financing Baidu.

"Mr. Li, aren't you going to listen to my offer?" Robin Li couldn't refuse Lin Feng's words, so he had to continue listening.

Today's Baidu, although there is no funding gap for the time being, but as Lin Feng said, it is omnipotent to launch its own search engine in advance. According to their plan, it will take at least a few months before a mature search engine system comes out. This period of time is enough A lot has happened.

"Mr. Li, I only need 20% of the shares. My offer is 150 million RMB to buy 20% of Baidu's shares from you and Mr. Xu." Lin Feng said his bargaining chip. Robin Li will definitely not agree to this bargaining chip, but he is asking for a lot of money and paying back the money on the ground. Lin Feng's ultimate goal is only 10% of Baidu's shares.

Li Yanhong frowned, 20% of the shares, he and Xu Yong only had 45% of Baidu shares in their hands. Although they are still the largest shareholders of Baidu, they are not safe. He would never agree to this price.

"Director Lin, why are you so interested in my company? You must raise money." Robin Li thought for a while, and asked Lin Feng's purpose first.

"It's very simple. I am optimistic about Baidu, and I am optimistic about Baidu's influence in China in the future. My 'Second World' and 'Dingdang.com', as well as the Qidian fast food chain, all need Baidu's influence in China." Lin Feng thought To become the master of Baidu, apart from Baidu's future "Qiantu", Baidu's domestic influence is also very important to Lin Feng. As long as there is Baidu's search engine, Baidu's influence in the country can easily suppress competitors in the future. This will directly help and even be indispensable for building one's own game empire and even a future financial empire.

Robin Li was taken aback for a moment, he didn't expect Lin Feng to value his company so much, but since that was the case, there was no room for negotiation, as long as he ultimately held the absolute controlling stake in the company.
