In the eyes of the technology house, Li Mu is simply the most terrible robber and gangster of Silicon Valley, but in the eyes of capitalists, they think that Google has been wrong for so long, and finally made the right choice in this matter.

Technologists are not sensitive enough to capital operations. Most of the time, capitalists are pushing them to look at money. In companies like Google, Larry Page itself is not an expert in playing capital, so early Capital operation has always been a hindsight. Silicon Valley's other companies created by technology houses are also the same.

Capital operation is something that a company can develop and reach after reaching a certain level, just like the upper-level skills of a skill tree. This skill will only be triggered when the skill points come up, Silicon Valley The entrepreneurial trajectory of many companies is like this.

For entrepreneurs who do not understand capital operations, the entrepreneurial route is often a single addition, like Zhang San opened a skewers shop and found that the business is very good, so he saved money and opened a second branch, opened to the first When he was four, Zhang San felt that he had developed to the extreme. If he opened more branches, he could not fully take his energy into account.

At this time, the capitalist will come to the door, first tell Zhang San Capital how to operate, and then give Zhang San a fast-growing fund, let Zhang San build a professional operation team, and then use the capital for rapid fission , Four became eight, eight became sixteen, sixteen became thirty-two ...

Li Mu forced Google to buy Muye & Baidu, which is almost equal to the shell company. In fact, it gave Google an opportunity for fission-type development at the capital level. However, if you want to get this opportunity, you must pay the cost. 33.3% of the shares are Tickets.

In nature, this is a bit like the relationship between a star ’s brokerage company and an artist. A powerful economic company has the ability to debut an artist and make him a top star, but only if the artist must The brokerage company signed a long-term contract with harsh conditions, and even handed over most of the income to the brokerage company. It seems a bit harsh, but in fact it is a cooperation agreement that both parties agree to accept. Individual stars turned their heads and litigated with the brokerage company. 1. Hope to end the long-term contract and obtain freedom in advance. This is actually a manifestation of the lack of contract spirit.

Fortunately, between Li Mu and Google, there is no possibility of remorse or contract destruction. As long as the signature takes effect, Muye Science and Technology will become a shareholder of Google, and he will also abide by the spirit of the contract, helping Google to further develop and grow in the non-Chinese search market.

A more appropriate analogy, Li Mu is the United States after World War II, with rapid development and strong capital; Google is Japan after World War II, once glorious, but now it is being sanctioned by the United States everywhere, the possibility of turning over is very small, and suddenly At some point, the United States decided not to sanction Japan but to cooperate with Japan, which gave Japan an opportunity to subvert its destiny and quickly turn over.

Silicon Valley ’s technical gurus do n’t understand this, but Larry Page, as someone who has suffered, has already deeply realized the importance of this.

......

The legal teams of both parties completed the polishing of the terms of this M & A contract as quickly as possible. Subsequently, Li Mu and Larry Page decided to jointly hold a solemn signing ceremony at Yanjing.

The grand is the same psychological needs of both parties.

Li Mu wants to make the signing ceremony more solemn because he wants to take this opportunity to release a signal to technology houses and entrepreneurs around the world. The specific content of this signal is: first, if I want to hit you, you absolutely Can't beat me; second, if you kneel down to me, you will not only be beaten, but you will get more;

Larry Page wanted the signing ceremony to be more solemn because he wanted to take this opportunity to release a signal to all capital parties: Do n’t stop looking at me like I did a while ago. I am now a big brother By the way, Brother ’s resources will allow me to develop rapidly. In the future, Brother may be the world ’s first, then I may also be the world ’s second.

Since it is grand, it is natural to invite all media to attend, Muye Science and Technology as the east, the entire main exhibition hall is packaged in the Yanjing International Convention and Exhibition Center, and the area of ​​thousands of square meters is used for the press conference, which can accommodate at least a few Thousands of spectators and journalists from various media.

All IT media, high-tech industry media and financial media in the world have received invitations from Muye Science and Technology, and even invited founders, shareholders and executives of many domestic and foreign companies.

When the contract terms were negotiated, Li Mu did not bring in any of Robin and Baidu ’s management to participate in the negotiation. This is because, in the eyes of Li Mu, althoughMuye & Baidu is a joint venture between the two companies, but Muye Science and Technology It is a large shareholder who holds 90% of the shares, and Baidu has signed a concert party agreement with Muye Science and Technology and gave up the voting rights corresponding to its 10% share. Therefore, any strategic planning and plan formulation of this company is the sole responsibility of Muye Science and Technology. In this case, there is no need to invite more parties to join in the chaos. Baidu only needs to wait quietly to make money.

However, when preparing for the signing ceremony process, Li Mu decided to invite Robin to the scene as the second signing representative of Muye & Baidu, signing the contract with Larry Page together.

The actual operation of although Baidu cannot be involved, but when the results are harvested, Li Mu cannot throw Baidu aside. The signing ceremony is also a strategic achievement of Baidu, and the company names are jointly named after Muye Science and Technology and Baidu, so it represents Muye & amp; ; The signing representative of Baidu can't be just a representative of Li Mu, this is a kind of respect for partners.

When Robin received the invitation from Li Mu's, he did n’t respond first, and after a moment he refused: "Chief Li, it ’s enough for you to represent Muye & Baidu at the signing ceremony. I wo n’t follow the chaos, but you can rest assured. , Such a big thing, I will definitely be there. "

For Robin, he actually hopes to show his face at this signing ceremony, but as a passenger who rides to make a lot of money, he is also a little embarrassed in his heart. It is no longer necessary to grab a halo with Li Mu, so the Li Mu's invitation was declined.

However, Li Mu insisted: "Robin, this is a good opportunity for you to show your face in front of Western capital. You must know that Baidu, as a company developing in the China market, needs to ensure exposure in front of Western capital. Sometimes, companies The valuation of is not necessarily determined by the enterprise itself, but also the pursuit of capital. As long as the capital can be grabbed, the value of Yuan may exceed 100. On the contrary, if the capital is cold, Then he is not even worth a hundred. "

Robin actually wanted to agree, but the rejection was only out of respect for Li Mu's, but didn't expect Li Mu still persuaded him to agree, so he thought for a moment and gratefully said, "I understand Chief Li, thank you for your care, then I will I have listened to your arrangement. "

Li Mu nodded with satisfaction, said: "The signing of the day, the most important thing is our speech before the signing ceremony, I also arranged the time for the speech, and then Larry Page of Google as the merger and acquisition party , He will give a speech first, and then you and me as the representative of the acquired party, give a speech in turn, when your speech time is scheduled before me. "

"Okay Chief Li, I will listen to your arrangement."

Robin said, he was more grateful for Li Mu. He knew the intention of Li Mu so that Larry Page would give a speech first because Larry Page was the first party and should be the first. And Li Mu puts himself in front of him, should be worried that if he speaks behind him, he will encounter cold spots.

Li Mu said again: "Because I am the chairman of Muye Science and Technology and have absolute control of Muye Science and Technology, and Muye & Baidu is also a subsidiary of Muye Science and Technology Absolute Holdings, so according to legal principles, I should sign as Muye & Baidu The actual representative, so the actual contract, I will sign in private with Larry Page in advance. At that time, our on-site signing ceremony will only take a form, so our on-site contract will have three signature deposits, Google is Party A, there is a signature deposit, we are Party B, there are two signature deposits, one is for you, and the other is for me. At the scene, we signed three agreements, then exchanged and signed Even if the ceremony is completed. "

Robin busy said: "Chief Li, I understand."

Li Mu yelled, said: "There is one more thing, it is about capital operation."

Robin said: "Please say it."

Li Mu Road: "After the signing ceremony is completed, Muye & Baidu will be formally acquired by Google, and then Muye Science and Technology will open the gate for Google in the non-Chinese search field. The valuation of Google will definitely rise, and Muye Science and Technology and Baidu are Google Of the shareholders, Muye Science and Technology holds 29.97% and Baidu holds 3.33%. In this case, the valuation of Muye Science and Technology and Baidu will also increase. The valuation of Google will return to more than 10 billion USD in a short time. It is inevitable to stand at 15 billion. USD will not take too long online. If you continue to obtain resources from Muye Science and Technology, the market value of Google should be able to stand above 20 billion USD at the end of this year or the beginning of next year;

At that time, Google will definitely launch an IPO. Due to the good concept and good prospects, GoogleIPO will definitely be smooth sailing and get a higher recognition in the capital market. In this case, the market value of Google after its listing must also soar, if the market value of Google exceeds 400 Billion USD, even if your 3.33% is diluted by 20%, the equivalent market value is more than one billion USD, plus the development of Baidu's own business, at that time, you can prepare for an IPO. "

Robin asked: "Do you mean that Baidu and other GoogleIPO will apply for an IPO after successful?"

"Yes."

Li Mu, let ’s add one more sentence: "After both of you IPO, Muye Science and Technology should be IPO, and your two companies as Muye Science and Technology holding companies, the first IPO success, the Muye Science and Technology IPO will also have great The supporting role of Muye Science and TechnologyIPO will be greater. The three of us will cross each other, support each other, and incubate each other. The final result is that the market value of the three will usher in soaring to achieve a win-win situation for all three parties. "

"I understand." Robin said without hesitation: "At that time, we will strictly follow the rhythm of your plan!"
