Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Speaking of the companies that Xiao Qi plans to acquire and establish in the United States, we have to talk about the status of several American Internet companies currently in his hands.

    The first is the private property Xiao Qi gave to Yu Shanshan - LinkedIn.

    After completing the entire acquisition in September 2007, LinkedIn became the main asset of the "Yu Fund" in a substantial sense, accounting for 90% of the shares, which also ensured that Yu Shanshan's power in it was maximized.

    Now the president of LinkedIn is Xiao Qi¡¯s old friend Hoffman, and the CEO is another founder Werner.

    Hoffman basically doesn¡¯t care about operations, and CEO Werner was also the main driver of LinkedIn¡¯s market value exceeding 25 billion US dollars in his previous life.

    Yu Shanshan does not understand the management of LinkedIn, but with Xiao Qi here, with Hoffman and Werner cooperating and sharing power, and with global accounting firms and law firms responsible for supervision, of course no one can do anything.

    When purchasing LinkedIn, Xiao Qi promised that he would invest no less than 300 million U.S. dollars every year and would not dilute the 5% shares held by the two founders Hoffman and Werner. This funding and commitment were completely  Werner was relieved and began to develop LinkedIn in earnest.

    Unlike other social networking sites that are unrestricted, LinkedIn has been targeting the professional social networking market from the beginning, allowing people in the workplace to join, speak freely, engage in various communications, and seek various development opportunities for themselves.

    In addition to being a platform for people to communicate with each other in the workplace, LinkedIn¡¯s main business is to provide services to enterprises and provide various solutions.  The most important of these is naturally headhunting.

    To put it bluntly, it is China¡¯s 51jian.com and Zhaopin.com, and LinkedIn¡¯s approach is more direct, boundaryless, and more professional, and therefore has more development potential than them.

    ??In fact.  Now in the United States, with the injection of large sums of money from Xiao Qi, LinkedIn has already defeated r, the largest and earliest recruitment website in the United States, and seized 80% of its high-end customers. The market value of r has directly increased in the past year and a half.  Plunged more than 60%.

    Of course, LinkedIn has become the new largest recruitment social networking site in the United States.  And it is actively developing its own business territory in the UK and continental Europe.

    The number of corporate and individual users using LinkedIn has exceeded 200 million. This number is likely to continue to rise significantly in the face of the financial crisis.  I believe it will not be difficult to reach the goal of 300 million member users four years ahead of schedule.

    From Xiao Qi¡¯s purchase of LinkedIn shares to now, LinkedIn¡¯s valuation has risen sharply to US$3 billion, but no one believes that this will be the limit of LinkedIn. Even the most cautious Royal Bank of Scotland has given Linkedin¡¯s IPO an estimate of US$5 billion.  This number will definitely increase again after it is launched.

    Because compared to other social networking sites, LinkedIn is highly professional.  It has a great advantage in being responsible for corporate recruitment. It is a very professional Internet company.  It is the most popular and trusted by investors.

    After LinkedIn was listed in the previous life, the rising stock price and market value explained the choice of investors.

    Yu Shanshan has no intention of making Linkedin her private property. Moreover, Werner and a group of staff really hope to take Linkedin public.

    That¡¯s the only way.  They can get the most benefit.

    After all, Xiao Qi had promised before that if the operation was listed on the market.  10% of the shares will be allocated to senior management and employees.

    Xiao Qi has never been stingy about things like dividing shares.

    If the senior management and employees don¡¯t work hard.  Then LinkedIn is worth two to three billion US dollars, and 90% or even 100% of your shares is only two to three billion US dollars.

    But if Gaochan and its employees can see the hope of getting rich and proving their own worth, so they work hard to develop and expand LinkedIn, and finally LinkedIn is successfully listed, with a market value of more than 10 billion U.S. dollars, then 80% of the shares are worth 8 billion U.S. dollars.

    You tell me.

    Is 90% of two to three billion better, or 80% of 10 billion?

    So the old man said it well, if you are willing to give up, you will get something.

    People who just want it all to themselves often get the least.

    If LinkedIn is listed the same as in the previous life, then Yu Shanshan will definitely not own more than 75%. This is the most basic rule.

    So the shareholding Xiao Qi set for Yu Shanshan should be about 52%, and it is obviously a secondary equity structure model. The voting ratio of Yu Shanshan's shareholding is calculated based on 15 ordinary shares.

    In other words, although Yu Shanshan only holds 52% of the shares, her voting rights are as high as 78%.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?The final decision-making power of a company is decided by more than two-thirds of shareholders. Calculated, 667% is enough to control the fate of a company, and 78% is even more domineering.

    Before going public, Xiao Qi will definitely give out 10% of the shares as agreed.

    ¡°Then, of the remaining 80% shares, at least 30% must be put on the stock market. After the listing, it will be easy to repurchase 2% of the shares.

    If calculated based on an IPO with a market value of 10 billion U.S. dollars, releasing 30% of the shares will allow Yu Shanshan to receive 3 billion U.S. dollars in cash. After that, the value of the 52% of the shares she holds will reach about 12.8 billion U.S. dollars, making her a wealthy person.

    Although 52% of the shares cannot be moved, according to LinkedIn¡¯s business model and profit prospects, the annual dividends are also a large amount, enough for her children and grandchildren.

    Of course, LinkedIn should be listed in two or three years. Only then will its value be fully estimated, and it may even directly exceed 10 billion US dollars.

    The second one has brought full rewards to Xiao Qi.

    Now it no longer exists, it has been merged into Electronic Arts and has become a member of Electronic Arts.

    During a financial crisis, there are many safe havens.

    To put it simply, although the stocks of the cooperative companies in Fairy Company's industrial chain also fell for a while, after passing through the panic period, they returned to normal soon. During this period, the stocks were still rising steadily.

    From a general perspective, the most popular mobile commerce concept stocks are also a safe haven.

    For example, many development companies that have performed well in RE have not seen their stock market values ??decline.

    Many game and program companies with good sales on K have strong stock market values.

    Well, in fact, if the two think together, the most prominent one is Electronic Arts.

    Because it has good performance both on RE and K, the quantity and quality of games are deeply loved by users, and the sales data are very good, so the market value of Electronic Arts not only did not decline during this period, but actually  It rose to about 27 billion U.S. dollars, which was highly praised by the market.

    For all the shares Xiao Qi sold, in addition to getting a huge return of 99.2 billion U.S. dollars, he also recovered 20% of Cho Girl's shares, and then retained 1,152% of New Electronic Arts' shares.

    In total, Xiao Qi made a lot of money from this business.

    He only invested 1.3 billion US dollars in the development and promotion of the game, and then received a return of more than 20 billion US dollars, with a return rate of more than 1,500%.

    From preparation to profit-making exit, Xiao Qi only spent less than a year. With such a terrifying speed of making money, it is no wonder that he has been called an "investment master".

    Countless business schools and university business subjects have already repeatedly studied and pondered various investments made by Xiao Qi since he started doing business. Investment is an emerging hot topic!

    Slightly gossip.

    Now Xiao Qi still has 1,152% of Electronic Arts shares in his hands, and he has no plans to sell them anymore.

    Just as Xiao Qi and Hoffman discussed when it was founded, it will eventually be sold because it is just a trend and has no foundation. If it can be founded into another Electronic Arts, then Xiao Qi will retain the shares.

    Well, now, it happens to be Electronic Arts and the merger, then the 1152% of the shares in Xiao Qi's hands will become the shares of a company with a historical background. With the development pulse of Electronic Arts, I dare not say 100 years, but  It is quite certain that we will continue to develop steadily for 50 years.

    Moreover, the current assets have been merged into Electronic Arts. Once the new trend and the old powerhouse cooperate, the chemical effect will be much better than the two of them fighting alone in history.

    1152% of Electronic Arts' shares cannot have much influence on Electronic Arts' decision-making, nor can they become the core assets of the Xiao Family Fund.

    But it is undeniable that this asset is still an excellent asset, and it brings a lot of dividend returns every year.

    In the future, whether you keep it as part of the fixed asset allocation or transfer it to your wife, it is a good choice.  (To be continued)
