My 1999

Xu Liang turned over it and couldn't help but smile.

"Tang Wanxin really treats me like a garbage disposal plant and dumps everything on me. JJ Disco, Jingcheng Xiyangyang Culture, and Guowu Sports Company are all just scraps."

Lu Hui smiled and said: "Mr. Xu, Tang Wanxin is not without aim.

Of these three companies, except JJ Disco, the other two are very suitable for us. "

Xu Liang nodded.

Beijing Xiyangyang Culture Company was founded in 1998. With the support of Delong, Chen Ziqiu, the former director of the Yangcheng Planning Department of Chen Ming and Li Chunbo, headed north and founded Xiyangyang Records, which caused quite a stir in the mainland music scene that year.

Zhang Weining, the cheerful deputy general manager, is a well-known musician who produced classic songs such as "Wild Flowers", "Perseverance", "My Deskmate", and "Back to LS" under the former Red Star Production Co., Ltd.

Xiyangyang takes "giving you the best local music" as its slogan. On the left is Chen Ziqiu, on the right is Zhang Weining. Tian Zhen and Lingdian Band have also recruited their members.

With its golden lineup, Xiyangyang was the most promising record company by the outside world at that time.

In addition, Xiyangyang Culture is also involved in film and television, advertising, and Xiyangyang Film and Television Department has successfully released "Crazy English" and "The Flowers Bloom".

In addition to Tian Zhen and Lingdian Band, Xiyangyang's artists include Shuimunianhua and Eskar, the latter is the lead singer of Gray Wolf.

If acquired, it will undoubtedly strengthen Hongmeng Music’s influence in the Chinese music scene, especially mainland music.

At the end of 1999, Delong invested 5 million to establish Guowu Sports Company and invested in the production of the "Chinese Martial Arts Sanda King Competition".

Sanda King was launched at the end of March 2000. Within a few episodes, the ratings surpassed "Happy Camp" and "Rose Date".

At the end of 2000, in the Sanda King Finals, Liu Hailong finally won the title and shocked the audience.

Sanda King suffered a loss in the first year, but due to high ratings, it started to make a profit in the second year.

After the Spring Festival of 2001, Tuopai Qujiu spent nearly 20 million yuan on the title.

Brands such as Huiyuan Juice, Red Bull, and Victo Men's Wear also followed suit.

As of June 2001, more than 200 TV stations across the country, including Xiangjiang ATV and Macau Satellite TV, have signed television broadcast agreements with Guowu Company, directly covering a population of about 600 million people.

Every week, an average of nearly 40 million people across the country and Southeast Asia watch the game.

Of course, the information provided by Delong must be very inaccurate, but "Sanda King" can be said to be the most popular sports program in China now.

The acquisition of Guowu Sports can enrich Hongmeng Film and Television’s variety show matrix.

By then, Hongmeng will no longer have to rely on just one "Super Boy/Female" to dominate the world.

JJ Disco, Delong was able to bring it out, which was somewhat beyond Xu Liang's expectations.

This disco, located in Xinjiekou, North Second Ring Road, was established in 1994. It is the earliest large-scale disco in Beijing. With an area of ​​1,600 square meters, it can accommodate thousands of people at the same time.

In that era of lackluster entertainment, JJ Disco, Letterman Disco Plaza, and NASA Disco Center were the holy places for all Beijing youth.

Bell bottoms and toad mirrors represent an era.

At its peak, Delong was able to obtain a net profit of 30 million Chinese coins from JJ Disco in one year, which strongly supported its subsequent expansion.

Building the Hunan Torch, acquiring alloy shares, and filling the Tunhe River are all attributed to JJ.

This is why Xu Liang was surprised that he would sell it.

"Mr. Xu, I heard that JJ's business has been declining since a murder occurred in March this year. I guess this is why Delong wants to sell it."

"Homicide?"

He cared little for that.

"I heard that two people died and one was injured."

Xu Liang understood.

But even if there is no murder, JJ can't play anymore.

Just like werewolf killing and script killing gradually replaced KTV, now disco is also being replaced by KTV.

"You reply to Delong for me. I want all three companies."

"Do you want JJ ​​Disco too?"

"Of course, this is in the second ring road. You would be stupid not to. Give it to New Century Real Estate and let Sha Zhigang buy as much land as possible around it and develop it into apartments." Xu Liang said.

It's close to the West Sea and has a nice view.

If you develop it casually, it can be sold for more than 100,000/square meter in more than ten years.

Lu Hui nodded.

Only one day later, Tang Wanxin agreed to all previous transactions.

Hanhua Qilin China Fund spent 320 million Huaxia funds to take over Delong’s holdings of Shenzhen Development Bank and CYTS.

Hongmeng spent 15 million to acquire Guowu Sports and 10 million to acquire Xiyangyang Culture.

New Century Real Estate spent 35 million to acquire JJ Disco.

"Brother Xu, there are so many people here."

Liu Qianqian, who was wearing a toad mirror, looked at the crowd of people on the broken bridge and stuck out her tongue coquettishly.

Liu Xiaoli stayed in Shanghai and was busy preparing for the first Hey Tea store. She had nothing to do, so she followed Xu Liang to Hangzhou.

"The movie "The Legend of the White Snake" has made the West Lake Broken Bridge a holy place for almost all Chinese people to check in. Naturally, there are many people."

There were memories in Xu Liang's eyes.

When the show was on the air, their family didn't have a TV.

As soon as I finished dinner in the evening, I ran to my friend's house next door.

After catching up, I watched the replay.

It took three or four times in a row before it was over.

This is the TV series that he has been in love with for the longest time. Even after "Little Swallow Looking for Daddy" which became popular in the whole village, he watched it once and never followed it again.

"I also followed "The Legend of White Snake". Zhao Yazhi's performance was really good. I will work hard in the future and strive to catch up with Teacher Zhao in terms of acting skills."

Seeing her clenching her pink fists and swearing, Xu Liang couldn't help but smile.

She definitely goes above and beyond in terms of beauty.

Acting?

Hi, being pretty is enough, what kind of bike do you want?

"Come on, let's go home after visiting the Broken Bridge."

Liu Qianqian nodded and quickly followed.

Stepping onto the bridge, there are more people, so it is inevitably a bit crowded.

Xu Liang naturally stretched out his right hand and hugged the beautiful woman's slender waist, and brought her into his arms.

"I protect you."

The righteous voice made Liu Qianqian's pretty face blush slightly.

Through the thin T-shirt, the temperature from the palms seemed to get hotter.

Liu Qianqian, who was originally lively, was like a quail, passively being led away by Xu Liang.

After leaving the broken bridge, Xu Liang did not retract his arm.

Liu Qianqian did not protest.

The two of them walked like this and arrived outside a manor surrounded by green bamboos.

Two stone drums face each other, and a gate tower covered with tiles.

A plaque hangs above the brown-red wooden door, which reads "Taoyuan Villa".

Xu Liang knocked on the door, and the courtyard door opened quickly.

"boss."

Xu Liang nodded and walked in with Liu Qianqian.

After seeing the person, she struggled instinctively.

Xu Liang didn't force him and let go of the soft, slender and surprisingly elastic waist.

After passing the threshold, there is a screen wall, and after bypassing the screen wall, there is a courtyard layout.

Following the corridor to the back, a pond several acres in size comes into view.

Sitting north and facing south, a two-story building was built near the lake.

The retro architectural style, decorated with green trees and red flowers, is extremely beautiful.

This 'Taoyuan Villa' was built after Taihua Real Estate won the 'Taihua City' project last time. It bought a piece of land by the West Lake, covering an area of ​​3,200 square meters and a construction area of ​​1,100 square meters. From construction to decoration, a total cost of 40 million.

It is also his only residence in Hangzhou.

Climb up the stairs to the second floor. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the vast West Lake and the towering Leifeng Pagoda in the distance. The scenery is superb.

Xu Liang looked at the time.

"Sissi, you go and have a rest first. I'll call you later during dinner."

"Um."

Liu Qianqian responded obediently, turned around and left.

After Xu Liang picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, Lu Hui came over.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Ma is here."

Xu Liang nodded and turned to go downstairs. Not long after, a man wearing a white short-sleeved T-shirt, brown trousers and black old cloth shoes, with a wide and flat face, like an ET, strode over.

"Haha, old horse, it's been a long time."

The two hugged each other warmly.

"Brother Xu, from last year to now, I have heard all the news about you. You are so famous and admired, so enviable and admirable."

"What's there to envy? I'm worried to death now. The agencies that come to me for various reasons to suppress Qiufeng can be arranged from the capital to the devil's capital, forcing me not to even go back home."

The corner of Lao Ma's mouth twitched, which meant that he didn't know, otherwise Gao Luo would throw the word 'Versailles' in Xu Liang's face.

"Come on, let's go upstairs."

A group of people came to the second floor.

Looking at the beautiful West Lake in the distance outside the window, Jack Ma praised: "Brother Xu, this yard is amazing."

"If your brother likes it, you can come here and get one. I believe it will not be difficult with Ali's status in Hangzhou."

Lao Ma waved his hand.

"I'll forget it. With all the money in my pocket, I can't even afford one-tenth of your house."

Alibaba has not yet been listed, and the shares cannot be liquidated.

Jack Ma didn't have much money on hand either.

"As soon as Alibaba goes public, won't you be rich?" Xu Liang said with a smile.

Jackma grinned.

"Brother Xu, Alibaba is now in a period of rapid growth, and its profits cannot cover its expenses, so it is not suitable for listing yet."

He came here mainly to discuss Series C financing with Xu Liang.

"Isn't it normal for Internet companies to operate at a loss? As long as your revenue and users are increasing, the market will give you a reasonable price.

Amazon is the perfect example. "

Jack Ma pondered for a moment and then shook his head.

"Before the Nasdaq crisis, I would have agreed with your idea to let Alibaba go public. But now, both Xiangjiang and Nasdaq are paying more and more attention to corporate revenue indicators.

Moreover, once listed, Alibaba will face stricter supervision, which is not in line with the current situation of Alibaba's development. "

"When do you plan to go public?"

"Wait until Taobao's business truly matures."

"Now that you have defeated eBay, aren't you mature enough?"

"It's just a defeat, not a complete victory. eBay still occupies more than 30% of the C2C market."

Xu Liang nodded. Seeing that Jack Ma was resisting, he did not continue the topic.

"How much do you plan to raise in Series C financing?"
