Chapter 972 Has Zhang Qihang Opened Up?

Thinking of this, Chen Haiyang asked: "Then Qihang, what do you want to say?"

"Director, I have no experience in managing a computer and Internet high-tech enterprise, so my ideas are based on the practices of similar enterprises in the West and China, which may conflict with some of our current domestic enterprise management concepts. "

Of course, Zhang Qihang can’t say that this is his own idea. First of all, he cleared himself up: Leader, I’m just talking about how the companies I see do it. It’s not what I want to do. Don’t get me wrong.

"Well," Chen Haiyang nodded, and said, "Just say it."

"First of all, no matter at home or abroad, the development goal of this type of enterprise is to go public, so our goal..."

"Wait a minute!" Chen Haiyang interrupted Zhang Qihang suddenly, and said, "Qihang, are you going to list this company?"

"In fact, we are two companies," Zhang Qihang explained first, and then nodded: "Then it must be listed. What are you doing so surprised by, the leader?"

"I'm just a little bit emotional, this is not like you," Chen Haiyang shook his head and said, "Before, in order to persuade you to let Huateng Group go public, you saw how many people had worn out their mouths, and you were not happy, but now you even take the initiative to ask for it. List your own business operations?"

Speaking of this, Chen Haiyang couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Yes, in this era, "listing" has become the biggest way of affirming a company, and seeing one company after another in the province go public one after another, the provincial leaders have asked Zhang Qihang many times: "Little Zhang! , when is your Huateng Group planning to go public?"

But what puzzled the leaders was that Zhang Qihang, who had always been very supportive of the work in the province, was uncharacteristically "stubborn" in this matter and firmly opposed the listing of Huateng Industrial Group, no matter who persuaded him. It is the same even if it is persuaded by big European and American investment companies such as IDG and Goldman Sachs.

Once, Zhang Qihang was cornered by someone, and he just dropped a sentence: "Do you want Huateng Industrial Group to go public? Unless you kick me out first! And signed a promise to the province that within the next five years, Huateng Industrial Group's Sales and profits must increase by at least 50%, otherwise he and the forces behind him must bear the corresponding responsibility for the losses suffered by the people of the whole province!"

As soon as these words came out, no one with a strong head dared to come out again.

Why are you trying to persuade Huateng Industrial Group to go public?Isn't it because many people have seen the huge benefits hidden in it and want to take advantage of Huateng Industrial Group's listing opportunity to get a share of it?
But the problem is, it's okay to come in and get a share of the pie, but if you bear the loss of Huateng Industrial Group's performance after losing Zhang Qihang, no one will be happy.

With the large-scale losses and recession of many domestic state-owned enterprises, there is a consensus in the province at this stage that Huateng Industrial Group can only develop and grow in the hands of Zhang Qihang, and continuously contribute profits and taxes to the province. And take on the role of the locomotive of the province's economic development. To put it bluntly, Zhang Qihang is the driver and conductor of this train. Once Zhang Qihang leaves, the province will inevitably suffer huge economic losses, even GDP growth rate will be significantly affected.

Under this common understanding, not to mention that Zhang Qihang is only against the listing of Huateng Industrial Group, even if he is like a naughty child asking for this and that all day long, the leaders have to hold their noses and recognize it.

Chen Haiyang knows all these things, and he also thinks that Zhang Qihang is an out-and-out "old stubborn" when it comes to the listing of enterprises, but now, Zhang Qihang actually said that one of the goals of these two new companies is to go public. Can Chen Haiyang not be surprised?

"IPO is not a scourge, why should I oppose listing?" Zhang Qihang said with a smile: "The reason why I oppose the listing of Huateng Industrial Group is because one of my ideas has not been realized, and the current listing of Huateng Industrial Group is relatively disadvantaged." , but Internet companies are different, this kind of enterprise has too much investment, and it is a better choice to seek funds through listing.”

"oh oh……"

Chen Haiyang nodded repeatedly. In fact, he didn't care about the situation, as long as Zhang Qihang supported the listing of these two companies, he quickly asked, "Then where are you planning to list? Is it NASDAQ in the United States?"

The reason why Nasdaq is mentioned is because Zhang Fox’s Sohu.com was successfully listed on NASDAQ in the United States last year. Because of Zhang Qihang’s intervention, after the listing, the market value of Sohu.com is higher than that of Sohu.com. Net was slightly higher, reaching $5.46 million.

Before Sohu.com's listing on NASDAQ, many comrades actually complained about Zhang Qihang's move to invest money in Internet companies that are "invisible, intangible, and just a few computers". The yin and yang expressed strangely, "Who knows what the money is used for?" The implication in the words is that Zhang Qihang and Zhang Fox have coveted the country's money. In the end, the high-level leaders made the statement, saying, " Let’s have a look and talk later.” Only then did the public opinion be suppressed.

But who would have thought that, just over a year later, Sohu.com went public!
Not only is it listed, but it is also listed on NASDAQ in the United States!
The market value has also exceeded 5 million US dollars!
Relying on Zhang Qihang's investment back then, Huateng Industrial Group made a net profit of more than [-] million US dollars!
Now, all those people who spoke strange words and were eccentric all wanted to stuff their heads into their crotches. It was also at this time that the leaders realized: Damn it!Is the internet so profitable?Is it so profitable to go public? !
It is also because of Sohu.com that the leaders of Lu Province firmly remembered the NASDAQ of the United States.

And after that, no one ever pointed fingers at Huateng Industrial Group's investment actions. On the contrary, countless people beat around the bush and asked Zhang Qihang or the people in the investment department of Huateng Industrial Group: Which company will Mr. Zhang plan to invest in next? ?

Ready to make a fortune with Zhang Qihang.

There is no way, it is really attractive to make huge profits of hundreds of millions of dollars with a single investment.

Zhang Qihang said honestly: "Nasdaq is unlikely, but Hong Kong stocks are still possible."

Hearing what Zhang Qihang said, Chen Haiyang was a little dissatisfied: "Hong Kong stocks..."

"No way," Zhang Qihang explained helplessly: "There are many requirements for listing on the rice stock market, and a lot of things have to be announced, and what we are doing is not a website, but EDA software and chips. In the future, maybe we will study a lot of things. Chips will involve state secret projects, so it is not suitable to go to the United States..."

Being reminded by Zhang Qihang, Chen Haiyang also reacted, and said with some embarrassment: "So that's the case, it's because you are thoughtful, Xiao Zhang..."

At the same time, Chen Haiyang was more or less terrified: Xiao Zhang is right, if the chip is really made in the hands of Zhang Qihang, the country will definitely hand over many confidential chips to this company. The company conducts design and research and development. Can the Americans know about these things related to national security?

That must not be the case.

In this way, even if these two companies want to go public, they really cannot go public in the United States.

Afraid to continue this topic, Chen Haiyang hurriedly asked: "You plan to list these two companies at the right time. I know this. Besides this, do you have anything to add?"

Zhang Qihang said: "Since it is going to be listed, in order to better stimulate employees' work enthusiasm and creativity, it is necessary to set up an option pool reward for employees..."

"Wait a minute," Chen Haiyang was stunned again, quickly interrupted Zhang Qihang, and asked, "What is this 'option pool'?"

It's no wonder that Chen Haiyang was confused. It's something that even junior high school students in later generations know, but in 2001, unless they are experts in the industry, few people know it at all.

Zhang Qihang didn't expect that Chen Haiyang didn't even know what an option pool was, so he could only explain: "Director, to put it simply, the so-called option pool is actually a part of the shares put there at the beginning, and Tell those who are eligible to receive options, saying, "Everyone, do a good job. The future of our company is bright. After listing, everyone can divide this share according to the method we agreed before"..."

Chen Haiyang suddenly realized: "Isn't this the carrot hanging in front of the donkey!"

Zhang Qihang smacked his lips: "That's true, but in the Internet industry in Europe and the United States, it is more complicated to obtain shares in the option pool. It needs to be divided into many steps, such as how much you can get, how to deal with quitting halfway, etc. Etc. . . but all in all, it boils down to a carrot hanging in front of a donkey."

Very familiar with this is the practice of high-tech companies in Europe and America, Chen Haiyang nodded immediately: "Since this 'option pool' system is managed by high-tech companies in Europe and the United States, it can have this, and what else?"

"There is also management shares, also called management shares," Zhang Qihang said, "This is the most troublesome..."

Before Zhang Qihang finished speaking, Chen Haiyang's brows were already frowned. He immediately realized what the problem was, and why Zhang Qihang said that the incentive layer shares were more troublesome:
Theoretically, since the common people can also buy the shares of these two companies after the company goes public in the future, and the employees can also hold shares, then there is no problem in the management's shareholding, and the management's shareholding will also help The management will devote more energy to the development of the enterprise.

But the problem is that the two companies that Zhang Qihang plans to set up are not private companies, but joint-stock state-owned companies. The management of the companies are basically civil servants. In this way, it is a bit tricky for the management to hold shares.

After pondering for a while, Chen Haiyang said: "This matter is a bit troublesome, but it doesn't matter. After all, this is an experiment. As long as there is a practice to follow in this kind of thing, it is not a bad thing to try it as a pilot and accumulate some experience."

"It's still leadership that looks far ahead."

"Fart far-sighted?!" Chen Haiyang scolded with a smile: "You kid will make trouble for me!"

"hey-hey……"

Zhang Qihang laughed a few times, acquiesced, and then said: "Apart from these, it is policy support. In this regard, I believe that the leaders must be more considerate than I am."

Chen Haiyang did not deny this point: "It's good that you know... Is there anything else you want to add?"

"Gone."

"Okay, that's it, hang up."

Chen Haiyang was not at all polite to Zhang Qihang.

..............................

Chen Haiyang, who hung up the phone, reorganized the key information he had recorded about the call with Zhang Qihang, and then started to write the report.

When the report was handed over to Tang Changhao, the team leader, and discussed by the team members, everyone who was qualified to know soon knew that Zhang Qihang, who was extremely resistant to going public, was going to let These two companies are listed!

Now, everyone was shocked: Is there such a good thing?That stubborn guy Zhang Qihang has changed his temper?
And when everyone was discussing this matter, Zhang Qihang had already brought Mr. Ni to Lu Province.

Not to mention the high-standard reception given by Lu Province to Mr. Ni's arrival, just to say that when Mr. Ni came to the Shungeng Factory of Huateng Industrial Group and looked at the modern production scene inside, he couldn't help but feel emotional: " It's too advanced...Xiao Zhang, your modernization is somewhat beyond our expectations, and I see that many of the equipment are produced by our own country?"

"Yes," Zhang Qihang nodded with a smile, pointed to the 5000-ton stamping machine in front of him and said to Mr. Ni: "For example, in our current stamping process, this 5000-ton stamping machine is the Second Machine Tool Factory of Shungeng City, Lu Province. Jointly developed with our Huateng Group, the stamping speed, efficiency, and precision have reached the level of similar international heavy-duty stamping machines in the mid-to-early 90s, which can fully meet our use requirements, but the price is less than one-third of the international similar products one.

Another example is the 2000-ton stamping machine next to it, which is also produced by our Shungeng No. [-] Machine Tool Factory. The key technical indicators such as speed, efficiency and precision are almost equivalent to those of the same type of products in the world, and it can be said that it has reached the international advanced level. .

Another example is the body molds we use, which were jointly developed by us and the automobile mold factory under Chengfei Factory. The precision has almost reached the same technical level as the same type of molds in the world. "

"Okay, okay, that's great," Mr. Ni nodded repeatedly, his expression overflowing with joy: "Then are there any shortcomings in these devices?"

"There are still some deficiencies," Zhang Qihang did not conceal the deficiencies, "For example, in terms of energy consumption, our stamping machines are still slightly higher.

Another example is molds and other peripheral systems that are matched with stamping machines. Although the precision of our molds has reached the level, the quality and level of materials are still a little bit worse. There is still a gap in the mold. "

"That said, the gap is still not small."

Elder Ni was a little emotional.

Zhang Qihang nodded: "The gap is not small. Compared with 10 years ago, the gap between our country and the international level in this kind of products has actually narrowed a lot. In addition, considering the price gap between the two sides, I can only say, Homemade is delicious!"

"Ha ha……"

Hearing what Zhang Qihang said was interesting, Mr. Ni was also happy: "Indeed, if the overall performance and key technical indicators are not much different, and the price can be so much cheaper, it will be really delicious..."

Speaking of this, Elder Ni couldn't help saying with emotion: "It would be great if I could export it."

"Exit? Yes."

Hearing this, Elder Ni said in surprise, "It's already ready for export?"

"Yes," Zhang Qihang nodded and said, "Didn't Ford negotiate with Chang'an before, and their people didn't know how to know about it, so they came here curiously to find out the situation, and later found out that Shun Geng's second machine tool The products of the factory are very good, so I talked with Shungeng City No. [-] Machine Tool Factory about purchasing... Just last month, the general manager of Shungeng No. I gave it to Americans, and they want to invite me to dinner and thank me well.

In addition to the machine tools of Shungeng No. [-] Machine Tool Factory, the molds we developed also attracted FAW and SAIC GM. After inspecting our molds, they ordered a batch of small batches. Obviously, these molds are for inspection And understand the performance, if our molds can really meet and meet their requirements, I believe there will be more orders waiting for us in the future. "

The Second Machine Tool Factory of Shungeng City not only realized the export of complete stamping machines, but even sold them to a world-class auto giant like Ford?

The automobile mold jointly developed by Huateng Industrial Group and Chengfei Factory can not only meet their requirements, but has even been sold to SAIC-GM?

Zhang Qihang's words gave Mr. Ni a huge shock. He suddenly realized that he had been immersed in the world of chips and operating systems for these years, had he neglected the outside world?

Seeing that Mr. Ni was in a daze, Zhang Qihang knew that the shock to Mr. Ni was not small, but for this result, Zhang Qihang was happy to see the result: he had experienced the blows of Lianxiang computer and Ark chip successively, No matter how strong Mr. Ni's mind is, it is normal to have some doubts about some things.

Today, Zhang Qihang wants to tell Mr. Ni through these practical things: Some people are indeed short-sighted and only pay attention to a little profit in front of them, but in our country and nation, except for those who only care about small profits In addition to people, there are more people who are concerned about the development of the entire country and the nation, and the progress of science and technology. You old man can't be depressed because of the blows given to you by a small group of people.

During the next visit, Mr. Ni kept thinking. When the visit was over, Mr. Ni suddenly asked Zhang Qihang: "Xiao Zhang, can I visit your technology research and development center tomorrow?"

Zhang Qihang nodded immediately: "Of course no problem." After a pause, he added: "Our Huateng Industrial Group has no secrets from you, Mr. Ni."
