In the chairman's office of the Wan Da Corporation
, Wang Jianlin made a cup of tea and sat back in his chair."I say, Old Ma, why do you have the time to come to my place?”
"Hey, Old Wang, don't tease me. I have a bunch of troubles.”Ma Yun held a cigarette in her hand and said with a frown.
In this time and space, because of Bai Hao's existence, the two giants had become good friends. One of them was in the real estate industry, and the other was focused on the Internet. There was no commercial competition between them. In line with the principle of having more friends, Wang Jianlin and Ma Yun did not make a bet in public.
"Oh? Tell me."
Wang Jianlin put down his teacup and became interested. He had never seen Ma Yun like this before.
"Ali might be going public.”Ma Yun sighed.
The atmosphere in the office became unusually solemn.
Wang Jianlin didn't say a word. He stood up and paced around for a long time before he asked,"Does Bai know about this?”
Ma Yun shook her head."That kid knows that I'm looking for him, so I don't know where he's hiding. Now, his company is all managed by that beautiful CEO. I came to you this time to ask if he's contacted you."”
As Ma Yun's best friend, Wang Jianlin quickly said,"Don't worry, I'll immediately use my connections. The two of you have to discuss the matter of Ali's listing. That kid holds more than half of Ali's shares. In the eyes of some people, he's a piece of fat meat.”
It was the dream of many entrepreneurs to have their companies listed on the stock market. This way, they could absorb funds from society and rapidly expand their business.
However, for ambitious people like Wang Jianlin and Ma Yun, going public was not a good choice.
At present, Ali Baibai was doing well, and financial people were generally optimistic about its potential. It could be foreseen that once Ali Baibai went public, it would inevitably usher in a wave of investment boom.
And investment meant that the shares would be diluted.
It was a very simple principle. If your company was originally valued at 10 million, you would have 100% of the shares. If you raised 10 million, your company would appreciate to 20 million, and at the same time, your shares would be diluted to 50%.
Some people said that your stock price would not change, and the company would have an additional 10 million in development funds. Wasn't that the best of both worlds?
However, your authority in the company has been reduced.
In the past, you could have made your own decisions. Now, you have to hold a shareholders 'meeting to discuss it.
If your shares were to be diluted again, from a major shareholder to a minority shareholder, they could easily strip you of your position as chairman and forcefully take back your shares.
Then, you will realize that the company is no longer your company. You have worked hard for most of your life and will end up penniless.
It was as if Gates had founded the company, and Gates only owned less than 10% of the company's shares.
Never underestimate the capitalists of this world. After decades or even centuries of ups and downs in the business world, their means of capital operation were definitely beyond your imagination.
Bai Hao was the largest shareholder of the Ali Baibai Group. Most importantly, he had no background. In the eyes of those capitalists, he was like a child holding a gold brick. If Ali went public, it would bring him disaster.
"
Hello, I'm Bai Hao. Let me help you carry the box."”
Bai Hao easily lifted the box and the bag on her back and fastened them to the donkey.
"I heard from the production team that you've been waiting here for half an hour?”
Chen Duling blushed and said,"Yeah, I don't know the way. I called your mushroom house but no one picked up. They said that someone would pick me up later, so I sat here and waited.”
Bai Hao accused him righteously,"How pitiful. The production team is too inhumane.”
The two cameramen looked at him and gritted their teeth. Didn't your conscience hurt when you said such words?
"I think it's okay. I don't have anything to do anyway.”
Chen Duling felt a little guilty. Was it really good to speak ill of the production team so openly?
She was different from Zhao Liying. Zhao Liying was an A-list celebrity and didn't need to be bothered by the director's attitude. On the other hand, she was just a C-list celebrity. No matter what kind of director it was, in her eyes, they were all big shots.
Along the way, the atmosphere was a little quiet. Even if Bai Hao tried his best to find a topic or throw out some jokes, Chen Duling would not answer. Most of the time, she would look at him with a dumbfounded expression.
This made Bai Hao very helpless. It was very awkward for him to speak alone. In the end, he didn't say anything either. The two of them walked silently towards the mushroom house.
Actually, Chen Duling also felt that the atmosphere was very awkward, but she did not know how to cooperate.
In order to understand the show, she had watched the live broadcast before coming. However, in the end, this was her first time participating in a variety show. She could not let go and was worried that she would say the wrong thing or do the wrong thing. Moreover, she was not familiar with Bai Hao, so she naturally had nothing to talk about.
The director in front of the camera cursed silently. Chen Duling was too reserved, making Bai Hao impatient. Now that the two of them were not in the mushroom house, he could not even help warm up the scene.
(PS: It's too late.)
