Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 142 The Open Handset Alliance is established

On November 11, Google finally announced the establishment of the Open Mobile Phone Alliance, with 5 companies including China Mobile, Qualcomm, and Samsung joining in to launch the Android SDK software development toolkit.

First, the Honor G1 mobile phone came out, and then Google Android gradually attracted public attention. Finally, it was cathartic at this moment. Many things that were not understood before have now surfaced.

Starting from this day, the number of reservations for the Honor G1 mobile phone has soared. With the support of Google and the support of 36 software and hardware operators around the world, consumers' confidence in Android mobile phones has become unprecedentedly strong.

Honor, which has yet to sell a single mobile phone in China, has soared in domestic influence. If no major negative events occur, it is almost destined to become on the same level as Motorola, Samsung, and HTC in the shortest possible time. high-end mobile phone brand.

"It turns out that the Honor phone is a Google Android phone..."

There is almost no objection that Google is the most attractive Internet technology company in the world at this time, not only because of their excellent search engine, but also because of their open and inclusive corporate culture, which has almost no black spots in the country.

Of course, more than ten years later, Google changed its original intention and provided high-definition maps of Russia for unknown purposes. Musk Starlink directly serves the war. After all, the Silicon Valley technology giant is an American technology company, and its butt decides its stance.

After China Mobile joined the Google Open Mobile Phone Alliance, it took the initiative to contact Honor. Qu Li was really unavailable, so he had to let Zhou Shaoning take charge of the contact. In the years when operators' mobile phone subsidies still existed, no mobile phone company dared to offend the operators, just like most migrant workers. Even if you don’t dare to offend your boss, you still want to eat from them.

What is Qu Li doing at this time?Of course, it is to promote Jumei’s listing.

Jumei's total domestic sales in the third quarter experienced explosive growth, exceeding 2 million RMB, and sales in October even exceeded 10 million. The addition of third-party brands and free shipping promotions during the summer and National Day have achieved great results. success.

Let’s put it this way, Jumei’s financial report is calculated from November to the end of October of the following year, which is a complete fiscal year. Counting revenue from virtual products such as phone bills and game recharges, Jumei’s domestic revenue in fiscal 11 exceeded 10 million. Meibi, Shopee has been established in the United States for four months, has been on sale for three months, and has accumulated sales of more than 2007 million US dollars.

经过会计调整后财报显示：聚美集团2006财年营收是2000万，2007财年是7.5亿差不多一亿美元。一年时间营收增长了37.5倍，谁敢说这不是商业奇迹。

The current financial report has not been audited by an accounting firm, but the problem is not big. At most, it has been making money before. Jumei e-commerce platform has basically made no profit this year due to promotions, but Riyue Fenghua, as an asset-light brand operating company, has been It's profitable.So something weird happened. Jumei actually achieved overall profitability for two consecutive years.

The biggest source of profit is of course Riyue Fenghua. In 2007, there was really little competition among clothing e-commerce companies. The gross profit of Xiangyun and Danlin has been maintained at 100% for a long time. Even if the coconut shoes are sold to Shopee for US$60, Xiangyun still has 200%. above net profit.There is much to brag about at this time: a pioneer in the Internet industry, a new trend in brand e-commerce operations...

Lehman, HSBC, and Goldman Sachs gathered in Yangcheng to make suggestions for Jumei. It is already November, and the road show will start in December and it will be listed in January next year.

Jumei has been established for two years and its finances are very clean. Therefore, we will adjust the share ratios between Riyue Fenghua, Jumei and Shopee to pay as little tax as possible.All that's left to do is brag in the media. Whether it's Jumei in China or Shopee in the United States, they are both in a period of rapid development, and Qu Li doesn't have that much free time.

The role of high-end talents is revealed here. Lin Bin and Xu Lei have strong subjective initiative and can handle many things without Qu Li.Because of the emergence of shopee, Jumei chose Nasdaq as its listing location, which gave Wall Street investment more room for imagination. In addition, Qu Li did not ask for super voting rights. For a company that was established less than two years ago, no one would agree. of.

Jumei's previous total share capital was 1.5 million shares, and the stock price in the last round of financing was US$2.6. This time, 2500 million new shares were issued in the listing, and the transfer of old venture capital shares did not exceed 500 million shares. There are still 1000 million shares that need to meet certain requirements. Conditional equity incentives.

The issuance price arranged by Lehman for Jumei was US$16 to US$18, with a financing of approximately US$4 million and a market value of over US$28 billion. He was more confident than the founder, Qu Li, and it was really difficult for them.

阿狸B2B业务在香江上市，融资15亿美元，市值也就88亿美元。不过上市当天从13.5港元的发行价暴涨到39.5，阿里巴巴的市值超过250亿美元，陈丹琳300万成本购入的100万股小赚了一笔。

The outside world was surprised by Jumei's listing. After all, it was established too short ago. Although it is in the limelight, why can't it wait a little longer?Is Qu Li going to tell them that the subprime mortgage crisis is coming and life is difficult for everyone? He needs to reserve food in advance and develop cloud computing...

It's not that Qu Li doesn't want to inject capital into Jumei. The problem is that even if Jumei goes public, his shareholding ratio will not be less than 40%. This is already a lot, and he is very satisfied.

Well, no one believes this, and no one thinks he has too much money. Qu Li admitted that he was short-sighted and thought he could make a lot of money by trading stocks and buying options. He did make money, but compared to the development of Jumei and Honor, and future potential, his investments in financial markets seemed to be becoming less favourable.

No one can be right all the time, not even a reborn person. Qu Li didn’t know that Jumei would be so successful, not just the Taobao store. Look at how many listed companies will emerge from Taobao in ten years!Qu Li didn't even know that the shopee group buying model plus Facebook would have such explosive power. What he knew was that investing in Facebook would not result in a loss.

Qu Li, who doesn't want to be a financial tycoon, has never considered himself a pure entrepreneur. He has a strong financial mindset, talks about long-termism, and wants to make quick money.Qu Li looked at the issue price set by Lehman and felt bitter. He really regretted it.How about investing in Glory now?Haha, I’m thinking too much!

Qu Li, who was under great pressure, often couldn't sleep these days. After tossing Chen Danlin several times one night, she was still very annoyed. She wanted to go to another room several times. Chen Danni was waiting there, but unfortunately she could only think about it.

"I don't want to work with Chen Danlin anymore." Chen Danni found the opportunity to complain

"why?"

"Her people are everywhere here. If anyone approaches you, someone will snitch on you."

"..." Could it be that there are many beauties in the school recruitment starting this year?Qu Li was thinking about it.

"Are you talking?"

"What do you want to do?"

"Will she stay at Jumei E-commerce or at Sun and Moon Fenghua?"

"She is the vice president and can manage both sides."

"Is she going to force me to leave Jumei?" Chen Danni couldn't stand it.

"You should go to Riyue Fenghua to be responsible for brand operations and management." Qu Li thought about it and felt that a retreat job would be more suitable for her.

"She won't go there often. I'll live somewhere else."

"Dan Lin agrees?"

"The office space here is so small that the two companies will definitely have separate offices."

"You are smart, but you have to wait until Jumei goes public."

"I miss you." Chen Danni said pointedly.

"I miss you too."

The two left the company and drove into the same hotel.
