Chapter 3004 AB Shares

Zhou Buqi naturally supports Liu Qiangdong.

He wants super voting rights and wants to firmly control JD.com, no problem!

Although this may result in the loss of one's own interests to a certain extent, this is secondary. The two of them are brothers to begin with. If Zhou Buqi doesn't support them, who will? Then JD.com might fall apart.

Liu Qiangdong is a little worried, "I'm afraid that American investors won't recognize the AB share model."

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "Why don't you agree? This is a financial gadget created by Americans. Don't worry, didn't you say that JD.com's financing scale is very small?"

"Well, diluting 10% of the shares can probably raise US$1.5 billion to US$1.8 billion."

Now Liu Qiangdong is obviously not as accustomed to big scenes as Zhou Buqi.

When Zhou Buqi heard this number, he felt relieved, "It's just a small amount of money. During the road show, I can find a few institutions and divide it up. Don't worry, there won't be any problems in JD.com's IPO." Accident!"

"When it comes to road shows, you'd better show up."

Liu Qiangdong was still worried and wanted to pull him in.

With Boss Zhou's face, all parties' capital will be solid and they will enthusiastically subscribe for JD.com's shares.

Zhou Buqi said angrily: "I'm not going! I don't have time!"

Liu Qiangdong smiled and said, "If you don't go, I won't be at ease."

"It's okay, I'll make some arrangements for you." Zhou Buqi already had a plan, "I'll talk to Black Rock Capital and tell them that I very much recognize JD.com's growth prospects and ask them to add JD.com to the Zhou Buqi Index. 'Just stay there."

"Ah?" Liu Qiangdong was slightly startled, "What's the 'Zhou Buqi Index'?"

Zhou Buqi said: "It's a financial product launched by Black Rock Capital. There are S\u0026P Index, Nasdaq Index, and Dow Jones Index. Many people don't know how to choose stocks. Buying the index is the safest investment strategy. Black Rock Capital Seeing that I can do business, I have participated in and invested in many high-quality companies, so I integrated these companies related to me and made an index to attract investors to subscribe for related financial products, which is the 'Zhou Buqi Index' '.

"Is this okay?"

Liu Qiangdong couldn't believe it.

Relevant indexes have been launched in the name of individuals, and they are launched by the world's largest capital giant such as Black Rock Capital. They have extremely high credibility and reliability, and have a strong ability to absorb investment. With the endorsement of Black Rock Capital, it is truly a powerful alliance. Companies related to the "Zhou Buqi Index" are equivalent to having a big investor, and their stock prices will have a huge growth trend.

It's unprecedented for anyone to be able to do such a good job in business, right?

Zhou Buqi said: "It's all their fault, it has nothing to do with me, and I won't endorse them."

Liu Qiangdong smiled and said: "You don't have to come forward to endorse it in person. The name of Black Rock Capital is enough. Well, now how many related companies do you have in this index?"

"It seems..." Zhou Buqi was not sure about the specific situation. "There seem to be 20 companies, including Ziweixing, Changyou, PayPal, Jingtao, Jieyu Media, Ziweixing Global, Netflix, LinkedIn, and Tesla. It doesn’t matter, some are listed companies, and some are venture capital investors participating as PEs. This time I tell them to include JD.”

Liu Qiangdong felt confident now, "If this can really happen, then we can ensure the success of the listing!"

Zhou Buqi said easily: "Don't worry, you can't fail no matter what. Look at the current situation. The craze of the Internet is coming again. Global capital is grabbing Internet stocks. JD.com is the leading e-commerce giant in China. , If no one even takes the shares issued in the IPO, then it is too underestimated the general trend of the Internet. "

After all, this was Liu Qiangdong’s first time to engage in this kind of capital feast of listing, so it was not surprising that he was a little anxious. Seeing that he looked like he was used to seeing big storms, he didn’t want to be too bad, so he forced himself to be calm and said: “What about you? You? How is it over there?”

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "Why don't we start now? How hot is the battle between man and machine? It seems to be broadcast live on TV now. If you know Go, you can watch it."

"I can't."

Liu Qiangdong is already used to his dazzling marketing methods. After all, JD.com has grown up together with on-campus group buying. On-campus group buying is for on-campus, and JD.com is for off-campus. The two sides cooperate well. To this day, on-campus group purchases still use logistics services specially customized by JD.com.

Zhou Buqi said: "JD.com has raised more than one billion US dollars in the market. This scale will not affect Ziweixing's listing. It's okay!"

Purple Star International's IPO financing scale may reach an astonishing US$24-26 billion, which is more than ten times that of JD.com.

JD.com is indeed a bit bloodthirsty in rushing to go public before Ziweixing International.

But it can't affect the overall situation.

In fact, the reason why JD.com is rushing to go public is not to get ahead of Ziweixing International, but to get ahead of Alibaba.

Alibaba will be listed in the United States in August or September this year.

This has been basically determined.

Boss Ma’s financial team has also begun to build relationships and go through procedures in the United States.

Liu Qiangdong has a very competitive mentality, and he does not want to fall behind Ali. After successively defeating competitors such as Newegg, Dangdang, Amazon, Yi Xun, and Suning, JD.com is left with only one player, and that is Alibaba.

After choosing and choosing, April is a bit too hasty, and May is the most suitable opportunity.

At this time, Liu Qiangdong suddenly took a magazine from his desk and shook it, "Have you read this?"

Zhou Buqi asked: "What?"

"American financial magazine, Barron's."

Liu Qiangdong has basically finished his study tour in the United States. This study tour experience was very successful. Not only did he lose weight, he also improved his English. He often reads some original English newspapers and magazines, and gained experience in the IT industry. First-hand industry information.

Zhou Buqi doesn't have such a habit, "Oh, what are you writing about, are you so interested?"

Liu Qiangdong smiled and said: "This is an authoritative media that selected the 30 best CEOs in the world last year."

Zhou Buqi's reaction was relatively calm, "It must be me, right? If not, it would be Pheasant Magazine."

Liu Qiangdong said: "Well, with you, you are the first. Who else can be better than you? I manage five or six listed companies."

Zhou Buqi glanced at him, "With you? Are you also on the list?"

Liu Qiangdong was a little embarrassed, "I'm not included, but there are four domestic CEOs on the list, which is quite impressive. Well... one of them is Zhang Zhongmou of TSMC, so I have to include him."

"Oh." Zhou Buqi nodded, "Who are those two? Erma?"

Liu Qiangdong said: "Alibaba's Boss Ma was not selected, but Penguin's Boss Ma was on the list."

Zhou Buqi curled his lips, "Pheasant Magazine, you don't understand anything!"

Liu Qiangdong said: "This list not only looks at business achievements, but also a comprehensive evaluation. It should be based on the investment of Penguin's boss Ma in the charity field in the past year. Another one on the list, Yang Yuanqing of Lenovo, It’s not a business achievement.”

"Him?" Zhou Buqi was very surprised, "He can be on the list?"

Liu Qiangdong said: "The reason is indeed quite strong. His salary was US$5.2 million, but he distributed US$3 million to Lenovo employees. The evaluation given by the jury is somewhat populist. The behavior shows the modern qualities that a corporate decision-maker should have.”

"Um……"

"What do you think about this?"

"Me?" Zhou Buqi glanced at him and snorted, "How else can I look at you? Just drink poison to quench your thirst!"

Liu Qiangdong laughed.

Jingdong has been cooperating with Lenovo all year round. In the early years, it was also taken care of by Mr. Liu, and they are both members of the capital's corporate circle. He knows what is going on. Of course, it will not be as simple and simple as foreign financial magazines. A one-sided view.

Zhou Buqi sighed, "It's hard for him. Mr. Liu retired for the second time. It's not that easy to control a company with a complex background and intertwined interests like Lenovo. 3 million US dollars are distributed to employees... I don’t know who it was given to! Lao Liu was soft-hearted and retained most of the state-owned shares in the company. It was really a surprise if he was like those national entrepreneurs who made water, glass, and communication products. If you ruthlessly and completely liquidate all state-owned capital and completely turn it into a private enterprise with 100% individual shares, how can there be such things later? The same goes for Vanke. Don’t look at Wang Shi. He is so carefree now. It’s troublesome. The days are yet to come.”

A few years ago, Mr. Liu retired. When Yang Yuanqing became the CEO of Lenovo for the first time, he was in trouble and couldn't handle it at all. Later, Mr. Liu hurriedly came back.

In the past few years, Mr. Liu has taken care of Lenovo again, and further diluted the share of state-owned shares through some capital means, greatly reducing the interference of non-market factors within the company, and handed over power and retired for the second time, allowing Yang Yuanqing to come Take over.

But even so, Yang Yuanqing's field control ability is still a bit weak.

They even came up with the strategy of sharing their salary with everyone.

If you can bribe someone for a while, can you bribe them forever?

If one day I don't pay out of my own pocket, I'm sure it will be troublesome again.

Liu Qiangdong said solemnly: "That's why JD.com must adopt the AB share model. I don't allow any irrelevant people to interfere with my decision-making. This kind of negative case is simply terrible. If it were me, I would rather sell the company than Will not tolerate it!”

"Just make whatever model you like!"

Zhou Buqi stood up to leave.

When I walked to the door, I saw Liu Qiangdong's female secretary.

When she came into the room just now to bring coffee, Zhou Buqi felt that she looked familiar. Now that I stared at her seriously for a while, I felt more and more familiar, and the more I looked at her, the more shocked I became, and even my heart started to pound.

Then, he looked down at the office nameplate on her chest, where her name was.

As a personal secretary, Zhao Li Muge saw the big boss being so rude and stared at Mr. Liu's female secretary. He also kept staring at the girl's breasts, as if he had not known the taste of meat for three years and the taste of milk for eight years. , I was so ashamed that I wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. I felt that my boss was so embarrassing!

There are plenty of pretty girls!

The office has also hired a dozen new secretaries, and you haven’t even seen them yet!

Why are you staring at someone else's female secretary?

Don’t we have one at home?

Zhao Li Muge hurried over, pulled his arm, and signaled to him that it was almost done. It's so embarrassing. I'll make arrangements for you when you return to the company!

Zhou Buqi took a deep breath at this time, saw the name on the nameplate clearly, and was really shocked.

Lao Liu's female secretary is called Wang Langli, yes, that's her!

She was Zhou Buqi’s second wife in his previous life!
