Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 831 Selling shares, being in the same frame as Erma

After finishing the murder scene in the rainy night, in the following week, Zhang Xiao followed the Wu army to fight the Vietnamese army, and was finally beheaded by a general of the Vietnamese army.

"It's finally done."

Standing up from the pool of blood, Zhang Xiao let out a long breath of relief.

"Mr. Zhang, congratulations." Zhang Yimou came over with the Chinese woman from the crew, and congratulated Zhang Xiao.

Zhang Xiao asked: "Director Zhang, there should be no night show tonight, right?"

"No!" Zhang Yimou nodded and asked, "What's the matter, do you want a treat?"

Zhang Xiao nodded, and said: "How about Zuixian Tower, you can order any good wine and food."

Zhang Yimou smiled and said, "That's no problem, it's settled like this."

From the start of filming of "Taste the Courage" to the present, Zhang Yimou has been busy almost every day, and he really needs to relax.

After finishing the final feast, Zhang Xiao and Yang Mi returned to Yuzhou.

Yang Mi's role had been wrapped three days ago, and she had been waiting for Zhang Xiao.

When the two returned home, Zhang Xiao immediately entered the post-production of "Planet of the Apes".

Originally, he said that he wanted to release this movie during the Spring Festival, but he didn't know when the financial crisis would come, so it's better to get it ready and release it quickly.

Before filming "Taste of Courage", most of the post-production of "Planet of the Apes" had been completed, so Zhang Xiao only took a week to finish the latter part.

"What? Going overseas?" Zhang Xiao received a call from Zhang Yiming, the president of Douyin.

Zhang Yiming on the other end of the phone said: "Yes, Mr. Zhang, after three years of preparation, we plan to enter the overseas market."

At this juncture, Zhang Xiao only felt a little pain in his head when he went overseas to develop.

But he couldn't directly say that he predicted the financial crisis, so Zhang Xiao said, "Yiming, are you free now? Let's go to the teahouse opposite the company to have a drink and chat."

"Okay, then I'll set the location now."

Half an hour later, Zhang Xiao met Zhang Yiming in the box of the teahouse where he bought ByteDance shares before.

Zhang Xiao saw Zhang Yiming, who was getting fatter, and said with a smile: "It seems that the company has developed very well recently."

Zhang Yiming patted his belly and said with a wry smile: "It's difficult for a person to not gain weight in middle age. Unlike Mr. Zhang, who has always maintained his figure so well."

Zhang Xiaodao: "No way, I spend two hours boxing every day, as an actor, I need self-discipline."

After the two chatted for a while, they quickly got to the point.

Zhang Yiming said: "Mr. Zhang, Douyin has been preparing to enter the overseas market these years. After the board's research, we think the time is ripe now. I don't know what you think!"

Zhang Xiao didn't answer directly, but took a sip of tea and asked, "Do you want to raise money again?"

Zhang Yiming nodded and said, "Yes, we are planning to raise 120 billion U.S. dollars."

Zhang Xiao asked again: "What if things don't go well?"

Zhang Yiming said: "No, we are 80.00% sure that Douyin will succeed in overseas markets."

Zhang Xiao sighed and said, "I personally think it's best to wait."

Zhang Yiming showed an expression that was as expected, and said, "Mr. Zhang, don't you like us?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "The economic situation abroad is not very good now, and the international environment will change every moment. I am indeed not optimistic about your plan."

Zhang Yiyi fell silent and said, "Mr. Zhang, you were so optimistic about our company back then, why did you suddenly..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Xiao smiled and said, "Maybe I'm thinking too much, but no matter what, you'd better think again about entering the overseas market."

Zhang Yiming said: "The board of directors has already made a decision, and all shareholders have agreed."

Zhang Xiao glanced at Zhang Yiming across the table, and said, "Let's get together and get together, Yi Yi, I have 20.00% of the shares in my hand, and now I want to sell them for 500 billion U.S. dollars. Lose."

"Old rules, these shares cannot fall into the hands of overseas capital. I only recognize money, not people."

Once the western financial crisis breaks out, all the plans of that one company will come to an end, and Zhang Xiao doesn't want to get involved in it stupidly.

What's more, Douyin's development has reached its limit. Even if it succeeds in the West, Zhang Xiao will not be able to obtain greater benefits, so it is better to quit early.

Zhang Yiming exclaimed: "20.00%, don't you keep any?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Well, not at all, are you interested?"

Zhang Yiming pursed his lips and said, "If you are interested, you are interested, but you have no money."

Zhang Xiaodao: "Then release the humor in China, I believe there should be many big companies interested."

Zhang Yiming frowned, and said, "Mr. Zhang, are you so disapproving of our overseas plans?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "One, to tell you the truth, except for some core industries, I have already prepared to sell the shares in other industries. In the past two years, the overseas environment has been very bad. I am worried that there will be problems. You should have already evaluated it, right?"

Zhang Yiming nodded and said: "The company has also established an investment department, and they have not found any abnormalities. Other shareholders are also very optimistic about the overseas development of Douyin, so this plan was unanimously approved."

Zhang Xiaodao: "I hope I am worrying unnecessarily."

The two chatted for more than an hour. Before leaving, Zhang Yiming said, "Mr. Zhang, can I ask you for a favor?"

Zhang Xiao was taken aback, and asked, "What's the matter, let me tell you first."

Zhang Yiming said: "I hope that your 20.00% shares will not be sold to one person, let alone to other shareholders."

Zhang Xiao immediately understood what he meant. It was nothing more than worrying that other shareholders would threaten Zhang Yiming's position in the company after buying the shares, so he made an OK gesture and said, "No problem."

Zhang Yiyi stretched out his hand and said gratefully: "Mr. Zhang, I am very grateful for your help to me all the time. Without you, Douyin and I would not be where we are today. Although we will no longer be colleagues in the future, I hope we can become friends." .”

Zhang Xiao laughed, held his hand, and joked: "What friend, when you first met me, you clearly said that you were a die-hard fan of mine, why now that you've grown up, you want to upgrade!"

Zhang Yiming also laughed and said, "Don't dare, I will always be your fan."

Soon, the news that Zhang Xiao was going to sell Douyin's 20.00% shares caused a turmoil in Huaguo's business circle.

No one understood why Zhang Xiao, who had never been short of money, would sell Douyin's shares.

The explanation given by Zhang Yiming is that the idea is not to drink, and everyone must not believe this explanation.

That night, Hangzhou Ma called Zhang Xiao.

"Boss Ma, is it about the vibrato?" Zhang Xiao asked helplessly while lying on the sofa.

Hangzhou? Said bluntly: "That's right, Zhang Xiao, it took me half an hour to call. Don't tell me, someone already got there first."

Zhang Xiaodao: "I just said that your opponent Shenzhen Ma called and wanted to take 20.00% of Douyin's shares in my hand."

This is the first phone call between Zhang Xiao and the CEO of Penguin Company. In the past, Penguin decided to send a vice president to contact Zhang Xiao. Now, Zhang Xiao is not what it used to be, let alone himself. Even Yang Mi was received by him personally.

This is the manifestation of strength.

Hangzhou Ma's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly asked, "Did you sell it to him?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I originally planned to sell it to him. Didn't I see your number kept calling, so I didn't agree for the time being."

Hangzhou Ma said happily: "That's great, Zhang Xiao, I'll give you 320 billion US dollars to eat 20.00% of Douyin's shares, how about it?"

Zhang Xiao twitched his lips and said, "Boss Ma, your price is a bit petty. The penguins are all paying 320 billion dollars."

Boss Ma asked suspiciously: "You kid is not deliberately coaxing me, is it?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "If I lie to you, my whole family will die, okay? I don't understand, you have short videos of ants, and penguins have short videos of penguins, why do you have to click on everyone's vibrato short videos? Well, development Isn’t your own short video app popular?”

Boss Ma said angrily: "Isn't it due to you? Back then, you gave Zhang Yiyi 60 billion US dollars, which caught us off guard and allowed the Douyin short video app to occupy more than 80.00% of the market share."

"In the field of the Internet, every step is slow. Although many short video apps have been capped one after another, the best time has been lost, and Douyin's status cannot be shaken."

"By the way, why did you suddenly sell Douyin's shares?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "Didn't Zhang Yiyi say that the ideas don't agree?"

Boss Ma snorted and said, "Don't use such excuses to dismiss me."

"It's really different ideas!" Zhang Xiao explained: "Zhang Yiyi wants to take Douyin to develop overseas. I don't think so, so we parted ways."

Boss Ma asked: "Why not optimistic?"

Zhang Xiaodao: "The first is the Western system, and the second is the investment environment. I think these two aspects will greatly restrict and restrict the development of Douyin APP."

"Of course, it's also possible that I made a mistake in my judgment, but it doesn't matter, I've already made a lot of money anyway."

Boss Ma sighed in admiration: "With a capital of 40 billion U.S. dollars, after six or seven years, it has sold for more than 700 billion U.S. dollars. Even Buffett is far behind you."

Zhang Xiao laughed and said, "Thank you for the compliment."

Ma Laodao: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, 330 billion US dollars, more than 20.00% of Douyin's shares, what do you think?"

Zhang Xiao said: "Sorry, Boss Ma, I can only sell you eight percent at most."

"Why?" Boss Ma asked very puzzled.

Zhang Xiao explained: "This is Zhang Yiming's request. More than 20.00% of Douyin's shares cannot be sold to the same person. I can only divide it into three parts and sell it."

"When we signed the contract, there was a clause about selling shares. If I want to sell Douyin's shares, I need to go through Xu Ke who is named Zhang."

"So, if you want to buy them all, you must get Zhang Yiming."

Boss Ma was silent for a while, and said, "Did you say the same to Penguin?"

Zhang Xiao laughed and said, "Yes."

Boss Ma couldn't help but swear, and said, "Damn it, you didn't say it earlier, now I'm one step too late."

Zhang Xiao said: "Don't worry, Penguin's reputation is not very good, Zhang Yiyi won't agree to him easily, it's not too late for you to call him now."

Boss Ma said anxiously: "Okay, then I won't tell you. See you when we sign the contract."

After listening to the phone call with Boss Ma, Zhang Xiao turned off his phone directly, and then rushed to Xiao Xinxin who was on the mat: "Baby, Dad is here."

···
Soon, Zhang Xiao received a call from Zhang Yiming.

Zhang Yiming is very grateful to Zhang Xiao for being able to consider his own situation when selling shares.

After some discussions, Zhang Xiao finally sold 20.00% of Douyin's shares to Zhang Yiyi himself, Ant and Penguin. Zhang Yiyi himself took [-]%, and the latter each took [-]%. , all are paid with soft sister coins.

Three days later, Mr. Penguin Mr. Ma and Mr. Ant Mr. Ma came to the headquarters of Douyin Company.

As soon as Boss Ma saw Zhang Xiao, he complained: "Zhang Xiao, you are such a thug, we were cheated by you this time."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "Isn't it 800 billion soft sister coins? This is nothing to ants and penguins."

Boss Ma was immediately amused, and said: "800 billion will cost half the life of our ants, okay, otherwise, how about paying it back to you in ten years?"

"No problem." Zhang Xiao said: "I can give you 500 billion with interest for ten years."

Boss Ma cut it, and said, "Where it's cool, stay there."

Zhang Xiao sighed, and said, "Can't the CEO of Ant Cave be a little more prudent in his speech? Learn from Mr. Ma, who especially understands that silence is golden."

Ma Teng, who had been silent all this time, rubbed his nose and said, "Actually, I also want to curse."

Boss Ma laughed loudly, and said, "Mr. Ma, at last we two have a time when we have the same views."

Zhang Xiao said: "Can I describe you as anti-collusion?"

"No!" Ma Lao said, "Zhang Xiao, for this signing, I flew here from Hangzhou, and Mr. Ma flew here from Shencheng. As the host, how do you plan to entertain us?"

Zhang Xiao was taken aback, and said: "You guys are so busy, why don't you go back clean after signing the contract?"

Ma Teng said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Zhang wants us to leave early!"

"I think it's beautiful~~~"

Ma Lao said: "Hurry up, how do you treat me? If it suits my heart, I will stay. If you don't agree with me, I will leave in the afternoon."

Zhang Xiaodao: "I can't snatch the host's treat at noon. If the two of you don't leave at night, I can cook for myself. Together with Li Liangjie and Wu Jin, we will go to Uncle Qian's zoo for a drink. I don't know if you two how do you feel?"

Ma Laodao: "Okay, then we will arrange it like this, hehe, I often hear Li Liangjie boast that your cooking skills are the best in the world, this time I must try it out."

Ma Teng said with a smile: "Then bother."

Yu Qian, Li Liangjie, and Wu Jin were beaten for which pot to take, and all three happened to be at home.

Zhang Xiao talked about the two horses with eyeballs, and asked them to go and prepare the dishes first in the afternoon.

Half an hour later, Zhang Xiao signed an agreement with Boss Ma, Ma Teng, and Zhang Yiming in the meeting room of Douyin Company.

The photo of the four people signing the contract was quickly posted on Wow, and immediately became the number one on the hot search list.

There is no way, the popularity of Zhang Xiao, Ma Boss, and Ma Teng has really increased, and their every move will attract the attention of the outside world, let alone this time they are in the same situation.

Netizens in the online comment area immediately exploded.

"Xiao Shen and two horses are in the same frame, it's really rare!"

"The three richest people in our country."

"The combined net worth of the three of them probably already exceeds three trillion U.S. dollars."

"Xiao Shen bought [-] billion shares, how much money will Xiao Shen use for charity?"

"Upstairs, what the hell are you thinking? With the money earned by Xiao Shen himself, why should he do charity?"

"That's right, I look down on those morally kidnapped people the most."
