Financial freedom starts with a monthly income of XNUMX

Currently, there are many large enterprises where the actual controllers of the companies do not hold many shares.

For example, Jack Ma only owns 7% of Alibaba's shares, but the reason he has the right to speak is because he adopted the AB share system. Although his shares are small, he holds A shares.

Those investors only hold B shares, which only have the right to dividends but not the right to vote.

So even though Jack Ma holds less than 10% of the shares, he still has the highest decision-making power over the entire company.

As for Tencent, Pony Ma’s share of the shares does not exceed 10%. The reason why he can control the entire company is because he signed an investor unanimous action agreement.

That is to say, after signing this agreement, no matter what Pony Ma does, the shareholders must unconditionally agree and support him and cannot oppose the decisions made by him.

Most companies use the method used by Pony Ma, which is to require those who want to invest and become shareholders to sign an [Investor Concerted Action Agreement] in order to maintain their control over the company.

Nominally they do not hold much shares, but most shareholders listen to them, so they still enjoy absolute control over the company.

Gao Yuan also planned this.

He must have absolute control over DJI Group, but when it comes to company decision-making, Gao Yuan can let Mr. Wang make drastic decisions on his own.

"Mr. Gao, I want to ask, why do you do this?"

Wang Tao couldn't figure it out.

The entire DJI Group is valued at around 200 billion yuan, which seems insignificant compared to a behemoth like Yuanfang Group.

Last year, DJI’s total revenue was approximately 50 billion yuan, and its net profit was only 8 billion yuan.

Eight billion may seem like a lot, but to Gao Yuan, it is really not enough.

According to the 51% shareholding distribution, even if all the money was used as dividends, it would only be around billion, equivalent to the net profit of Yuanfang Group in one and a half days.

After working hard for a year, you only earn what others earn in a day and a half.

Wang Tao really didn’t know what Gao Yuan’s purpose was in wanting to take over DJI so aggressively.

This amount of profit is not enough to fill the gap between Gao Yuan's teeth.

"Drones have a wide range of applications. I would like to launch a joint model between DJI drones and Yuanfang Automobile," Gao Yuan said, "as well as a joint model between Yuanfang mobile phones and DJI drones, based on the industrial ecosystem."

"Young people these days like to travel by car, driving Yuanfang cars, using Yuanfang phones, and using DJI drones that cooperate with Yuanfang Group. The entire industry chain has basically completed a closed loop."

Gao Yuan said slowly.

He did not say that he hoped to improve his future layout of the lunar base by acquiring DJI.

"If that's the case, why do we have to invest? Can't we just sign a purchase contract?" Wang Tao was even more confused. "If that's not possible, we can sign a strategic cooperation agreement and let DJI produce drones on our behalf. That would be very convenient."

"This is just one of the reasons. I actually have another important purpose." Seeing that Wang Tao still didn't understand, Gao Yuan pondered for a moment and said, "I wonder if Mr. Wang knows that the Space Rocket Company launched two rockets before?"

"I heard about it in Australia, but unfortunately I couldn't see it in person." Mr. Wang sighed.

This rocket launch, which is destined to go down in history, can only be watched live on the Internet. The distance is too far and you can't see anything clearly, which really makes people feel itchy.

Mr. Wang has always been interested in rockets and model airplanes.

It’s just that their strength is limited. A company that can build products like rockets and airplanes needs very strong strength and background, as well as a large amount of capital investment, despite the DJI Group’s valuation of around 200 billion yuan.

If we really want to develop rockets, this amount of money is not enough.

"I own half of the shares of Space Rocket Company," Gao Yuan said, "but I have never announced it to the public. I invested in DJI Group in order to have a deep connection with it, borrow the technology of DJI drones, and improve them to make them suitable for use in the lunar base."

If someone else said this, Mr. Wang would think that the other person was bragging.

That's a space rocket company, Musk's industry. How could he easily give up half of his shares?

Moreover, it is extremely difficult, and the amount of money required to be invested is at least hundreds of millions of dollars.

But these words came from Gao Yuan's mouth, so Mr. Wang had to pay attention to the value of these words.

Wang Tao heard that building a lunar base requires several steps and ultimately achieving lunar immigration. What a grand goal it is.

Wang Tao was deeply shocked.

He didn't expect that Gao Yuan had already started working on space exploration.

On the one hand, Gao Yuan was actually conducting research and development in this area, and on the other hand, he had just discovered that Gao Yuan's assets were like an iceberg, with only a small tip exposed.

And how much unknown wealth is hidden beneath that corner?
"Mr. Gao, I can agree to let you invest." Wang Tao said, "Not for anything else, just because I have such a dream in my heart. But I also have a request. If the lunar base is built, I also want to go to the moon to take a look."

"I want to be one of the first or second group of people to go aboard. This shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Gao Yuan nodded. It was not that difficult. "We will also allow moon landing in the future. As long as you want to go to the moon and pay a certain price, you can take our space rocket to the moon and stay there for about a week to half a month."

The price refers to money.

According to Gao Yuan and Musk's estimates, once the lunar base is completed, it will cost at least 40 to 50 million to 10 million RMB to travel to the moon by rocket.

In the early days, this activity was only targeted at the wealthy.

Only when the transportation costs come down in the later stage will we consider opening it to ordinary people.

"I must be on the first or second list. I want to see another planet as soon as possible. This planet is right above our heads. For countless years, many people have wanted to go up there and take a look."

"From a space telescope, the moon always reveals a lonely beauty. If I can go there sooner, I will definitely not go there later."

Wang Tao said, "In return, I can find a way for you to acquire 51% of DJI's drone shares. Don't worry, I will never let you pay a premium."

"I can't help it. I only hold about 30% of DJI drones. You have to buy shares from other people. I can't make decisions for other shareholders. The only thing I can do is to help you make connections and try to prevent your shares from being overvalued."

"If the shares are not enough, I can sell you 10% of the shares at par."

Wang Tao looked at Gao Yuan seriously and said.

He didn't expect that Gao Yuan had big ambitions. Tonight's meeting was like opening the door to a new world for him, giving Wang Tao endless imagination.

"I feel relieved by your words." Gao Yuan picked up a glass of wine. "I will sign the investor's letter of concerted action and will not interfere with your management of DJI Group. The only requirement is that I will send an audit team to DJI Group from time to time to audit the company's finances and development."

"This is what we should do. Even if you don't send anyone, we will hire an independent third-party investigation agency to come in." Wang Tao also raised his glass, "Mr. Gao, cheers to our cooperation."

Things have been discussed, and someone will be assigned to coordinate later.

According to the valuation, if Gao Yuan wants to purchase 51% of DJI Group's shares, it will cost about 1000 billion.

Although it has no decision-making power, 51% of the shares can still guarantee Gao Yuan’s position. In addition, DJI Group is not listed yet, so the financial report does not need to be made public.

Gao Yuan can then secretly plan to deepen the cooperation between DJI Group and the Space Rocket Company.

The next day, 300 drones were secretly sent to Australia. These 300 drones were the most advanced drones developed by DJI Group. At the same time, the parameters and source codes of these drones were all compiled into encrypted files and sent to the scientists.

Several scientists who were originally in charge of this field were on vacation, but after learning about this incident, they quickly ended their vacation, returned to work, and began to work overtime intensively to improve the drone.

Once all parameters meet the requirements, DJI will specially manufacture a batch of drones for Yuanfang to use for Yuanfang's exploration of the moon.

At the same time, Yuanfang Auto also held a new generation launch conference.

This press conference is mainly based on two cars. The first is a new model of Yuanfang Automobile priced at 10 yuan, and the other is a Yuanfang Automobile priced at yuan.

The press conference was hosted by Wang Sichao, and the venue was chosen to be a hotel built by Yuanfang Group itself.

When Gao Yuan arrived backstage at the press conference, Wang Sichao was looking at the manuscript nervously.

"Young Master Wang has seen so many storms, but you're actually nervous?" Gao Yuan said jokingly.

"If it were anything else, I wouldn't be so nervous, but this matter involves industrial development. If something goes wrong, it will affect the sales of cars."

Wang Sichao couldn't help but say.

If one is not handled properly, the loss may be tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.

Such a huge loss sounds a bit worrying.

"Hahaha, relax." Gao Yuan comforted, "It's not that serious."

In order to appease Wang Sichao, Gao Yuan deliberately changed the subject, "How did that matter go? I heard that you compromised."

I didn’t expect that Mr. Wang, a veteran in the love field, would also make a mistake one day.

Many people on the Internet are envious.

Although my wish has not been fulfilled, I have received several million dollars in child support, which is not a bad result.

"It's pure fiction."

Wang Sichao shook his head. “I don’t know how this got out. I get angry just by listening to what those netizens said.”

"Am I that kind of person?"

"She did it purely to stir up hype. If our family really gave her money, we would definitely ask her to sign an agreement and would not let her say anything nonsense online again."

For Prince Wang, seven million is really nothing.

There is no need to do such a thing.

"What is your father's attitude?" Gao Yuan asked.

"My father has been on the sidelines, and I have no idea what he's thinking," Wang Sichao said. "But I can be sure that she can't enter the gate of our Wang family, and her daughter probably can't enter either."

There are many cases of illegitimate children among wealthy families, but most of them have not been exposed.

It's not easy to marry into a wealthy family.

Don't say they are cruel, those wealthy people are not fools.

Take Fangshilong for example. After so many years of fame, his net worth is at least tens of billions or even hundreds of billions.

But his illegitimate daughter lived such a miserable life, and he didn't care too much about her.

Prince Wang is a playboy and he can't change. If this matter is not handled calmly, others may follow his example and have a few illegitimate children. What will happen then?
"Then you really don't care?"

Gao Yuan asked in surprise.

"It's not that we don't care. Even if we do, it's not now. Don't they often use our Wang family's name to do live broadcasts to sell goods? They live a happy life."

"I have a clear conscience that I didn't object to using my reputation to do this."

"For her to have so many viewers giving her tips in her live broadcast is like a dream."

"Let's wait until this matter has passed and the heat has died down before we talk about it."

After talking about these things, Wang Sichao obviously felt much better.

Netizens love gossip, and even the smallest thing can become a hot topic on the Internet. Wang Sichao is also helpless.

As the time approached seven o'clock in the evening, the press conference was about to begin.

Wang Sichao took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Gao, I'm going to hold a press conference first."

"Go!"

Gao Yuan waved his hand. He didn't want to interfere too much in Wang Sichao's personal affairs. After Wang Sichao left, he walked out from the backstage and went to the first row of the audience.

After taking his seat, as the music started, Wang Sichao slowly walked onto the stage.

The moment he appeared, there was thunderous applause from the audience.

In the minds of the people, Wang Sichao has a good image and has always been famous for his boldness in speaking out.

Not only did he criticize the entertainment industry, he was also quite friendly. Many people lined up to eat fried rice and other things with him at roadside stalls.

After wandering for half his life, he finally started to develop his career in middle age.

It’s just a pity that he didn’t inherit the family property, but instead came to work for Yuanfang Group.

But this also proves that he has a good vision. Today, the size of Yuanfang Group is dozens of times that of his father's assets.

At the same time, this also proves Gao Yuan's charm.

"Good evening, everyone."

Wang Sichao stood on the stage and gave a standard opening speech.

In a trance, Gao Yuan seemed to recall the scene when he first met Wang Sichao.

The playboy from the past seemed to have disappeared, and he now looked more stable.

This is also what he hopes to see. If a person has not radiated light in the past, it may be because he put it in the wrong place. If he changes to another place, it is likely that the situation will be completely different.

Although Wang Sichao changes girlfriends very quickly now, he has become relatively low-key and focuses on his career.

Wang Sichao has done a good job in running Yuanfang Auto and penetrating the Australian culture. He also used his connections and resources to help the development of Yuanfang Auto.

On the stage, Wang Sichao slowly talked about the development of Yuanfang Automobile and the update and iteration of this version. (End of this chapter)
