Chapter 257 Merger Success
ful
With the successful financing, the entire Baike company has taken on a new look, and the progress of various tasks has also been significantly accelerated.
With the money in hand, Lei Jun began to recruit troops aggressively.
As the company's reputation has grown, the outside world no longer regards Byike as an ordinary startup.
As soon as the human resources recruitment information is released, the resumes received are completely different from before.
With money and people, the market development progress of Yanjing and Shanghai is obviously expanding.
However, these have nothing to do with Chen Zhihe. He has completely dumped the company to Lei Jun and plans to become his major shareholder with peace of mind.
Even when major media came to the company for interviews, Chen Zhihe did not come forward and left it entirely to Lei Jun.
After being together for so long, Lei Jun has also grown up. Chen Zhihe can't say that he is completely relieved, but he is not worried about any major mistakes.
Facts have proved that Lei Jun did a good job.
In the new round of news, Lei Jun seems to be the representative of Baike Company, while Chen Zhihe is gradually being downplayed.
This was also the result of his discussion with Lei Jun.
Just when Baike Company was in full swing preparing for a new round of development, Chen Zhihe quietly arrived in Yanjing.
Yanjing.
After getting off the plane, Liu Chengan and Zhang Yiming picked up Chen Zhihe and went directly to Zhang Yiming's Byte Company.
On the way, the two of them had already told Chen Zhihe the details of the merger of the two companies.
On the surface, Liu Chengan's company is directly merged into Byte, which is equivalent to being annexed by Byte, but in fact it is another matter.
Although the new company is also called Byte, its equity has been dispersed.
In the general direction, original Byte accounts for 40%, and Liu Chengan Company accounts for 60%.
Originally, Liu Chengan did not agree with such a ratio because he originally had few shares. As a result, he would not be the largest shareholder in the new company.
But after Zhang Yiming offered to give up part of his shares as compensation, Liu Chengan finally agreed.
He didn't want to delay it any longer.
Looking at the specifics, Chen Zhihe’s 20% stake had been negotiated with Zhang Yiyi before, and Liu Chengan had no objection.
Liu Chengan also had 20%, which was originally not enough, but Zhang Yiyi gave up part of his shares and collected 20%.
Zhang Yiyi held 70% of the original Byte shares. After the merger, it originally held 28%. After subtracting the transferred part, the remaining 24% was left.
Except for their three major shareholders, the shares of everyone else have been diluted.
This is also the situation Chen Zhihe wants.
He is an investor and does not participate in the specific affairs of the company, but he is enough to check and balance Zhang Yiyi and Liu Chengan.
Compared to Liu Cheng'an, Chen Zhihe is still more optimistic about Zhang Yiyi. After all, Zhang Yiyi's success has been tested by practice, so Chen Zhihe is obviously more willing to let Zhang Yiyi be the largest shareholder.
For Zhang Yiyi, it is indeed heartbreaking to have a large piece of meat suddenly poached from the company, but fortunately, the overall strength has reached a higher level. He is also the largest shareholder, and his status in the new company has not dropped much.
Acceptable.
For Liu Chengan, on the one hand, although he is no longer the largest shareholder, he thinks that there are more people on his side. If nothing else, Chen Zhihe is not on his side and remains neutral.
, he can even outdo Zhang.
On the other hand, through this period of communication, he gradually admired Zhang Yiyi, whose ability and experience were indeed better than his.
At least for now, he would be happy to see Zhang Yiyi take the lead.
Thinking about dividing the peaches as soon as the tree is planted is a stupid thing that a smart man like Liu Cheng'an would definitely not do.
When we are about to divide the peaches, we have to at least wait until they bear peaches. There are no flowers yet.
Therefore, all three parties agreed to this cooperation plan.
On the same day, the three signed various agreements and began to change the equity.
Liu Chengan also vacated the house of his original company and moved the whole company to New Byte Company.
In the new company, Zhang Yi is appointed as CEO and Liu Chengan is appointed as general manager.
It sounds a little strange, but this is also a result acceptable to both parties at present.
When two families merge, it is impossible for them to suddenly become one family without a period of running-in.
Work is the best lubricant, so Chen Zhihe proposed a development plan for New Byte and suggested that the first generation of Toutiao.com be launched as soon as possible in the middle of the year.
On the one hand, he really wants to produce results as soon as possible.
On the other hand, it would be difficult for people from the two companies to integrate together in a short period of time without working together towards a goal.
Both Zhang Yiming and Liu Chengan agreed with Chen Zhihe's suggestion.
Even if Chen Zhihe didn't say anything, they would still want to do this.
Mergers have all been merged, whether they are mules or horses, they have to slip around.
After signing the contract, the two families had a meal together, and Chen Zhihe quietly returned to Jiangcheng.
Except for the parties involved, the merger of the two companies did not cause any waves in the market. It was just an ordinary trivial matter.
…
After returning to Jiangcheng, Chen Zhihe returned to campus.
Time flies by quickly, spring has arrived as promised, and the river city is covered with green.
After making it clear that he would only be an investor in the future, Chen Zhihe returned to the same state as when he was a freshman or sophomore in college, working out, going to class, and going to the library every day.
In the eyes of other people in the 404 dormitory, this is not the kind of life a billionaire should have.
But they have never seen how other billionaires live, and after being confused for a while, they became accustomed to it.
Except for letting Chen Zhihe treat her with food, drink and play every now and then, everyone felt more at ease as before.
Can it really be the same?
Anyway, Chen Zhihe hopes it will be the same, and he can't control others.
When walking on the road and meeting people who knew him, Chen Zhihe occasionally heard and saw people pointing, but he pretended not to see them.
Although I don't like it, it is inevitable.
But Chen Zhihe couldn't see Professor Liu's greeting.
Although he has received Chen Zhihe's promise, this student is about to soar into the sky. Will he stay with just a promise?
Not only did Professor Liu feel uncertain, he was also wondering whether he might be misleading his disciples.
Being in academia is a kind of success, and so is doing business.
Chen Zhihe is indeed talented in academics, but compared with his business, that is nothing.
Although it is wrong to have undergraduates like him who are engaged in academics, it is not absolutely impossible. But among those who are engaged in business, at his age, there is not one in a million who can be as successful as him.
Therefore, he hesitated whether to talk to Chen Zhihe again.
He not only thought that Chen Zhihe could stay in school for graduate school, but also felt that it would be fine if he didn't go to graduate school.
Finally, after enduring it for more than a month, he still made the call.
This is not only about whether he can retain this student, but also because Professor Liu is also gossiping.
He was also curious about how a person would choose his life after becoming a billionaire.
