Especially when Dong Chenxi proposed on behalf of Zhao Fusheng that this transaction only needed cash and did not accept shares, Baidu's negotiators almost rolled their eyes.

Anyone with a little common sense of the Internet would not know that Baidu's development momentum is just right now. If it goes public one day, it will definitely become the leading Internet company in China.

More importantly, anyone with a discerning eye knows that Baidu is a big ship with particularly promising prospects. If you have the opportunity to board such a big ship, what is your attitude towards future investment?

If Dong Chenxi hadn't been talking to himself in a serious manner, the negotiator would have thought that the woman was crazy.

"Miss Dong, are you sure your company really only accepts cash, not equity?" the negotiator asked while looking at Dong Chenxi.

"Mr. Feng, I think I've made it very clear." Dong Chenxi sat there neither humble nor overbearing, not at all shaken by the seriousness of the other party's expression, and said lightly: "This is the meaning of our big boss. Although the company's development prospects are very good, I'm sorry, we need cash now, so we cannot accept your company's equity transaction plan."

Mr. Feng is in a bad mood. Now he really wants to seize the big boss who invests in the future and ask carefully: Is there a hole in your head? You don't want the original stock listed in the United States, but you want cash!

Taking a deep breath, Feng Zhijie also knew that this was a business negotiation, the opponent had his opponent's considerations, and he had to consider the interests of the company, so this matter was a deadlock.

"Miss Dong, you should know that from a commercial point of view, your company's choice is actually quite uneconomical. I still suggest that you carefully report the situation to your boss and carefully consider our cooperation. "

Dong Chenxi naturally understood what he meant, but the problem was that this was something that Zhao Fusheng had decided on before, and even she could do nothing about it, although in Dong Chenxi's opinion, Zhao Fusheng might be wrong.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Feng, I can't do anything about it." Dong Chenxi said to Feng Zhijie with a wry smile.

Both of them follow the orders of the boss behind them, and they both have their own limits. They can only negotiate within a certain framework, which in itself is a very frustrating thing.

Negotiations have reached an impasse.

Feng Zhijie went back to report to Baidu headquarters, while Dong Chenxi called Zhao Fusheng, and the two met again.

"I don't quite understand why you don't want Baidu's original shares." Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng helplessly, and said bluntly: "I have investigated, and Baidu's performance is very good. It will definitely be listed successfully, and it will undoubtedly be a good thing for us to own his original shares at that time."

Zhao Fusheng smiled wryly. He naturally understood what Dong Chenxi meant, and knew that she was doing it for the good of the company, but the problem was that he couldn't tell Dong Chenxi so bluntly about some things. It's normal to become a pest that everyone shouts and beats.

Seeing Zhao Fusheng's embarrassed face, Dong Chenxi frowned slightly: "You don't know, do you have any grievances with Baidu?"

This was the only answer she could think of, otherwise she really couldn't figure out why Zhao Fusheng refused to own Baidu's original shares.

You know, this is not the attitude a mature businessman should have.

Thinking of this, Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng, obviously, she was waiting for Zhao Fusheng to give her an answer.

Sighing, Zhao Fusheng, who knew Dong Chenxi's character well, understood that if he didn't give her an answer today, she would definitely not let it go. It was not the first time Zhao Fusheng knew about her temper after knowing her for so long.

"I don't have any grievances with Baidu. I just think that Baidu is not a good company." Zhao Fusheng looked at Dong Chenxi and honestly said his answer.

"What do you mean?" Dong Chenxi was a little surprised.

"Think about it, the essence of Baidu's so-called free search is to make other people's consultation available for free to everyone. Not only that, but I noticed before that some of the advertisements on Baidu search are fake at all, but Baidu is still vigorously promoting it." Zhao Fusheng said slowly.

"Does it have anything to do with us?" Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng with a strange expression and said, "What we are doing is business, not charity. Besides, if you feel that Baidu's business policy does not conform to your ideas, it will be a big deal for the company. After the listing, we just sell it for cash, so what do we care about so much?”

what?

Zhao Fusheng looked at Dong Chenxi dumbfounded, and suddenly felt that his thinking was not enough.

But after thinking about it carefully, what Dong Chenxi said actually made some sense, and her previous logic was indeed a bit of a dead end.

Thinking of this, he looked at Dong Chenxi and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that, I might as well understand it as you do."

Dong Chenxi shook his head: "It's not that you don't understand, you're thinking too much."

Zhao Fusheng was silent, and he had to say that Dong Chenxi's words really hit the point, vividly depicting his current state.

Chapter 978 The Lion's Big Opening

"What do you think is the most important thing about being a human being?"

Zhao Fusheng looked at Dong Chenxi and asked a question with an inexplicable expression on his face.

Dong Chenxi was stunned, and looked at Zhao Fusheng strangely: "The most important thing in life is to be happy."

Zhao Fusheng nodded: "Yes, people must make themselves happy in life. If they are not happy, it would be too boring."

Hearing his words, Dong Chenxi was a little baffled. He didn't know what Zhao Fusheng meant. He had been convinced by him just now, but now it seemed that it was not the case.

"Do you know, just at that moment, I was convinced by you." Zhao Fusheng raised his head, looked at Dong Chenxi, and smiled: "Even I have been thinking about whether I should follow what you said , Restart negotiations with Baidu."

"Then you now..."

"I'm sorry, I feel uncomfortable." Zhao Fusheng calmly said to Dong Chenxi: "You have to know, I am a person with a mental cleanliness. Sometimes I think, 100 years later, our future generations will look back Our generation, they will definitely feel that it is the most bloodless generation in history, timid and weak, no matter how big the matter is, as long as the whip does not hit his own flesh, he will not hum One sound.

For many people nowadays, the only value is to make money by whatever means, and rely on wealth to support the insecurity deep in their hearts. Apart from wealth competition, the entire generation has not created values ​​that are directly respected by future generations, let alone serve future generations. The actions taken to defend the values, this generation has neither the responsibility of the nobility, nor the anger of the scholars, nor the bloodiness that should be born as a human being. The whole generation, all silent and depraved collectively. unprecedented.

The only fun and dignity of these people is: I am richer than you, and I live a better life than you. This is the degenerate value of most people today.

I don't want to live like that. "

Dong Chenxi was completely dumbfounded, she never thought that Zhao Fusheng would think so.

"Then what do you mean, we won't cooperate with Baidu?" After a while, Dong Chenxi asked Zhao Fusheng hesitantly.

Zhao Fusheng smiled wryly and shook his head: "Except for Baidu, at this stage, those portal websites that are interested in us cannot afford the price."

This is true. Today, when 360 has not been established, although Netease, Sohu, Sina and other major portals seem to be in full bloom, it is undoubtedly unrealistic for them to spend tens of millions to purchase y123 navigation web pages.

Therefore, there are not many cooperation partners that Zhao Fusheng can choose.

Similarly, the options before Baidu are also not great.

Because before this, Baidu had officially announced that the choice of listing would not be in Hong Kong Island or the Mainland, but in the United States.

But the problem is that the U.S. stock market has rigid regulations on the size of listed companies, and they must reach a certain size before they are allowed to go public.Baidu's current scale is insufficient. If it can acquire the largest navigation web page y123 in China, it will undoubtedly help expand Baidu's influence and basic market.

More importantly, when Baidu's boss Li founded the company, he once had a concept that Internet users can be divided into two poles.

On one side are search engine users, who use search engines to search for information of interest to them on the Internet.On the other side, there are users of the navigation webpage, who use the navigation webpage to find their favorite websites.

With the increase of Internet users, the users and utilization rate of navigation web pages will increase greatly, and some people will turn into users of search engines.

And Baidu, a company built around a search engine, ranks first in the field of web search in China.

The y123 navigation webpage, as the largest navigation website in China, ranks first among the same type of websites.

In other words, if Baidu can win y123, it will become the largest company in the same field.

Therefore, this acquisition, Baidu is more anxious than itself.

With this judgment, Zhao Fusheng actually has confidence in his heart.

"Contact them. Our asking price is 1000 million US dollars." Zhao Fusheng looked at Dong Chenxi and said slowly: "If Baidu can't afford this price, then I'm sorry, I would rather continue to maintain the website myself."
