C214 An Opportunity Has Come
Apple and Google both set the highest price for photographic terminator, and Zhang Yunfeng had his own minimum price for this software. No matter what, it had to be sold for more than 1.8 billion USD. And he wanted to sell it for more than 2 billion.
It sounded like an exaggeration to say that a software could be sold for 2 billion US dollars. And it was in USD, but Zhang Yunfeng was very optimistic about this price. This was because he had also received news that Google had started to cooperate with a few business partners to buy photographic terminator. This meant that the developers of Android and the biggest users of Android... All of them showed great interest in this software.
The Internet industry had always been a profession that could easily create miracles. Facebook was the most unbelievable one!
A company that started from a social media website finally reached the second place in the world's top 500. It had surpassed all the manufacturing and energy industries in the world, and had subverted the legend of a large brand that had existed for hundreds of years. In this era, although it truly determined one's status and ability, industrial manufacturing, no matter what, could not compare to the speed at which the Internet made money.
Boeing was awesome enough, dominating the Civil aviation aircraft market for several decades. Even a large number of military aircrafts were produced by Boeing, but so what? The technological level was indeed high enough to scare people to death, but compared to profitability, compared to Facebook, it was simply not worth mentioning.
Western Meiyang Country's national treasure brand, GE General Electricity, could be said to be one of the most comprehensive companies in the world. From car manufacturing to aviation and aerospace, there was nothing they could do. Their technology level was definitely in the leading position in the world. But such a huge industrial kingdom, compared to Facebook... It was still difficult to stand shoulder to shoulder.
A social media website was already like this, so what if a software was sold for 2 billion US dollars?
Zhang Yunfeng revealed his base price to Huang Yong. 1.8 billion, not a single cent less. If it was more than 1.8 billion, or more than a portion, he would be given 5% of the commission.
Don't underestimate this 5%. If it was sold for two billion US dollars, then Huang Yong would be able to get 10 million US dollars just by raising the price.
Zhang Yunfeng didn't plan to ask about the rest of the things. Going to negotiate with Huang Yong every day was too much of a show. Furthermore... The internet industry had already caught a whiff of the trend. They knew that Apple and Google had launched a massive acquisition plan at the same time. But no one knew who had bought it.
This made Zhang Yunfeng more or less alert. Dongchen Software was a shell company he had bought. Then it would be transferred under his name. If this purchase was a deal, then it would definitely cause an earthquake in the IT industry, and the whole world would look at Dongchen. At that time, he was afraid that he would have to surface.
However, it seemed a little too early to surface at this time.
A university student who was not more than 20 years old created a company with a daily profit of more than 10 million. Then, he opened a software company. In less than a month's time. He launched an excellent software and sold it for billions of dollars or even higher. A big tree attracts the wind. Zhang Yunfeng really didn't want to be the center of attention.
However, it seemed that the negotiations wouldn't last long. It wouldn't take long for Huang Yong to talk about the price of the purchase to reach his ideal price range. He had to hide it before the purchase was completed.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yunfeng immediately thought of Su Nuoyan's mother, Nie Minhui.
As for what exactly Nie Minhui did, Zhang Yunfeng had no idea. But he knew that Nie Minhui was very capable. She was able to erase his relationship with the Dongchen Pharmaceutical Industry. She would definitely be able to help him erase his relationship with Dongchen Software.
After that, Zhang Yunfeng hid it from Su Nuoyan and called Nie Minhui. He said, "Auntie Nie, I have something I need your help with. When are you free? I want to talk to you alone. "
Nie Minhui thought that Zhang Yunfeng wanted to talk to her about the relocation of the factory, so she said, "How about this. I will go to your school to pick you up tonight and find a place to sit down and talk."
"Okay." Zhang Yunfeng responded and said, "Auntie Nie, it is better not to let Nuoyan know about this for the time being."
Nie Minhui agreed and said, "Okay. Around nine o'clock in the evening. I will call you at that time."
After class in the afternoon, Zhang Yunfeng and Su Nuoyan ate dinner together in the canteen. After that, the two of them separated for about half an hour. Su Nuoyan wanted to go back to the dormitory to read. Zhang Yunfeng rode her back on his bicycle, but it was only 7: 30 PM. The appointed time with Nie Minhui was 9 PM, so Zhang Yunfeng also went back to his dormitory. He casually went online to pass the time.
When he opened QQ, the biggest title on QQ's news column immediately attracted Zhang Yunfeng's attention.
"Volvo's management isn't good. Jili wants to make a move on him!"
Zhang Yunfeng immediately remembered that Jili had spent a lot of money to buy the difficult Volvo brand a few years ago. He also moved the production line into China. At the beginning, the industry insiders did not think that Jili's acquisition plan would work. But in the following two years, due to the country's nationalization and industrialization of Volvo, they had developed a certain degree of favor. Therefore, Volvo's business gradually began to prosper in Jili's hands. However, Jili was not a first-rate car manufacturer after all. The problem of the Volvo in their hands quickly became apparent. Among them, the biggest problem was that their research and development ability was insufficient!
Jili had many years of experience in car production. On the global stage, it was simply impossible to produce. The cars they produced had always been third-tier cars. It was the cheapest car, all the products. From design to performance to safety, there were no bright points to speak of. The Volvo they bought could only follow the rules. They did not even develop a new model of the car. Under such circumstances, the Volvo could only last for two years. It was gradually being eliminated by the market.
Zhang Yunfeng opened up the details of the news and found that it was indeed as he had guessed. The Volvo had lost its ability to compete because of the lack of innovation in Jili's hands. Now... Now, the Volvo had become a burden to Jili. They were in the supercar market. With their stable market share, their profitability was still very outstanding. However, the Volvo had now become their burden. Not only could they not earn money, but they also could not make money. This made Jili start planning to sell the Volvo. He threw away this burden and focused on making his own proxy market.
After Jili bought the Volvo for 1.8 billion USD, he divided the production line of the Volvo into two large pieces. One was the assembly line, located in Chongqing, and the other. It was the engine production line, located in Hebei Zhangjiakou, very close to Yanjing. Basically, it was equivalent to the border of Yanjing. Professionals estimated that... In the past few years, the value of the Volvo had been greatly reduced. At present, it seemed like... It was already very good to be able to sell it for 1.3 billion US dollars. 1.3 billion. If the photographic terminator was sold, Zhang Yunfeng could easily take it out.
Zhang Yunfeng had perfect future industrial technology, but the most important thing was... There was no way to convert it into a real product. For example, the Volkswagen 1.4T engine could be said to be the best performance, the most reasonable fuel consumption, and the most environmental friendly product. However, if they used Zhang Yunfeng's industrial technology to make some changes to this 1.4T engine... Then they would produce a new turbine amplifier, and this 1.4T engine... Its performance could be increased by 50%, its original performance... In terms of torque, it surpasses most 2.0 natural inhaler engines. In terms of power... It was slightly lower than the 2.0 engine, but after modification, its torque could reach the level of 2.8T engines, in terms of power, it was equivalent to 2.4 liters of natural breathing engine.
Power output, torque, and other performance indicators had been greatly increased, but the fuel consumption had only increased by less than 10%. It could almost be ignored. Such an engine, after a dozen or twenty years, would only be the choice of an ordinary car. However, if it could be produced in the modern era, it would definitely be able to dominate the market of all medium-sized cars!
If the Volvo's own 2.0T engine was upgraded to a new generation of technology, then this engine would definitely be comparable to a first-tier brand like the BMW Mercedes-Benz. The V63.0T engine, in other words, when that time comes, it would be directly used on the Volvo xC60. The performance would be at the level of the Volkswagen Rui, if used on the S80. The performance could surpass the performance of the BMW 730 and Mercedes-Benz S350.
Zhang Yunfeng was a little excited. Jili wanted to sell the Volvo. To him, it was definitely a great opportunity to enter the industry!
Every country had an industrial and technological knot in their hearts. Zhang Yunfeng was the same. He hoped that one day, he could build an industrial kingdom that was leading the world. At that time, whether it was Toyota or Mitsubishi Heavy Industry, Mercedes-Benz Siemens, Universal Electricity, Boeing, Airbus... He was afraid that none of them would be his match.
Technology was too obvious in terms of industrialization. Take today's large-scale passenger engine technology for example, Lasalle, General Electricity and Puhui were basically all at the same level. But if there was an airplane engine, it could reach their power. It was even higher than their power, but the fuel consumption could be reduced by at least 30% to 40%. Then what kind of situation would these three companies face?
At that time, just this engine alone would be able to change the global civil aviation structure. The major airlines would force their heads to replace all the planes with the latest engines. After that, the huge decrease in the cost of shipping will bring more profit to the airlines... The decrease in cost could also reduce the price of the plane tickets and the tax on fuel. It would greatly increase the competitiveness of airplanes in short and mid-range travel. It would also be able to compete with the high-speed railway that was developing day by day.
If the Internet industry was a industry that was good at creating miracles, then industrial technology... It was an industry that could change the world in a matter of minutes! In terms of earning money, the former had an excellent advantage. However, in terms of achievement, no one could compare to the latter!
At this moment, Zhang Yunfeng had set his first goal for him to enter the industry, and that was to buy Volvo!
From the current looks of it, unless the price of the Volvo fell to the market price, no one would dare to buy it. That was because no one had the confidence to restart this half-dead brand, but Zhang Yunfeng was not afraid. He had a lot of future industrial technology that he lacked. It was just a condition to convert it into reality.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Nie Minhui punctually drove a Rolls-Royce to stop at the entrance of Yan University. Zhang Yunfeng had already waited there for about ten minutes before the car stopped. He saw Nie Minhui sitting in the car. He hurriedly opened the door of the passenger seat and got in.
"Auntie Nie." Zhang Yunfeng greeted her politely. Nie Minhui asked curiously, "Yunfeng, why are you in such a hurry to see me? What is it that you want to discuss with me?"
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and said, "It's a long story. Let's find a place to talk slowly."
In a private clubhouse less than ten kilometers away from Yan University, Nie Minhui brought Zhang Yunfeng into a business suite that she had set up. There was a conference room, a reception room, a study room, and a living room. Zhang Yunfeng and Nie Minhui sat on the sofa together. After the service staff sent tea over, they left. At this moment, Nie Minhui opened her mouth and said, "Alright, the privacy here is very strong. What's the matter? Now you can be at ease and say it out loud. "
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and organized his words. He said, "Auntie Nie, I registered a software company in Yanjing some time ago. It's called Dongchen Technology Development Limited. Now, I have a software. I've already started to discuss the purchase intention with Google, and Apple is also interested in buying it. But I am not satisfied with the price they gave me. So, I'm now inclined to make a deal with Google. "
"Oh?" Nie Minhui asked in surprise, "Yunfeng, when did you start the software industry?"
Zhang Yunfeng smiled and said, "A while ago, I signed a contract with a development team. I provided the funds and they developed a software for me."
Zhang Yunfeng naturally could not say that the software was developed by himself. Otherwise, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to give Nie Minhui a reasonable explanation. After all, in her opinion, he already had enough secrets on him. There were many things that Nie Minhui could not figure out. If she knew that she had developed a software that could sell for at least a billion dollars, she was afraid that she would not be able to accept it.
When Nie Minhui heard Zhang Yunfeng's words, she could not help but laugh. "The two industries that you are involved in are not related at all!" As she spoke, Nie Minhui asked, "Then what exactly did you come to find me for?"
Zhang Yunfeng said, "I want to ask you to help me hide my relationship with Dong Chen Technology. Otherwise, if the purchase agreement is reached and the contract is signed, I am afraid that I will encounter a lot of trouble."
"Is that so?" Nie Minhui asked in surprise, "Is it that serious? In this era, wasn't the software industry very popular? There are all kinds of purchases from day to night."
Zhang Yunfeng nodded and smiled awkwardly. "That's right, but if this software is really sold, I'm afraid it will become the focus of the industry."
Nie Minhui asked curiously, "Did you estimate how much it will cost?"
When Nie Minhui asked this question, she already had a rough idea in her heart. She thought that since Zhang Yunfeng had found her, then the value of this software... It should be at least ten million yuan or more, right? Otherwise, there was no need for him to hide his relationship with the company.
However, what Zhang Yunfeng said next shocked Nie Minhui.
Zhang Yunfeng said, "My deal limit is 1.8 billion USD. As for how much I can talk about, I'm not sure yet."
"What?"
Nie Minhui was stunned and did not react for a long time.
1.8 billion USD, more than 10 billion RMB! Nowadays, if one wanted to earn more than 10 billion RMB, many successful companies would not be able to do it for their entire lives. Zhang Yunfeng had asked for so much money, even for someone like Nie Minhui. It was hard to accept.
Nie Minhui could not help but ask, "Yunfeng, are you sure it is 1.8 billion USD? This price is just your own wishful thinking, right?"
Zhang Yunfeng shook his head and said, "This price can definitely be reached."
Nie Minhui still did not dare to believe it and blurted out, "You really can be sure?"
Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "I can be sure. Because this software is very important to Apple and Google. Whoever obtains it will be able to completely trample on the other party!"
"Oh my God!" Nie Minhui took about five minutes to gradually recover from her shock. She saw that Zhang Yunfeng did not seem to be joking at all. She also believed most of it in her heart, so she asked, "How much do you own for these 1.8 billion dollars?"2
Zhang Yunfeng thought, since he had already told Nie Minhui honestly, he did not need to hide it, so he said, "I take 100%. I have already paid for the development of the team. It is an exclusive buyout. How much can it be sold for now? It's all mine "
"Yunfeng..." Nie Minhui stared at Zhang Yunfeng's face and sighed. "Do you know how many successful businessmen will be angered to the point of vomiting blood? In just a few short months, you went from a few hundred thousand to a few hundred thousand. You made more than ten million Dongchen Pharmaceutical Industry in a day, and then you developed in the future. It was not difficult for Dong Chen to make a profit of 50 million per day, and the brand value will also exceed 10 billion. If he went on the market, his market value would increase several times. And now, you can earn 1.8 billion US dollars with just one software. Even Bill Gates, Mark, and Zuckerberg can't make that much money!"
Zhang Yunfeng smiled humbly and said," There is definitely a huge gap between us and them, but I believe that this gap will gradually shrink. "
After saying that, Zhang Yunfeng continued, "So I am worried that once the purchase is completed, this purchase will have a huge impact on the entire world. I am not ready to go to the front desk yet. So... I can only rely on your help on this matter. "
"No problem" Nie Minhui opened her mouth and said, "I can help you settle it tomorrow, but have you thought about what you should do after getting this money?"
Zhang Yunfeng said, "I have a rough idea, but it is not mature yet."
Nie Minhui asked curiously, "Can you tell me a little? Should I continue to focus on the Dongchen Medicinal Solution or the software industry? Or should I enter a brand new industry?"
"A brand new industry." Zhang Yunfeng said, "When the acquisition is completed and we get the money, if we can still make it in time, we can start the horse this year!"
