The next day, all Baidu executives and shareholders attended the meeting, and none of them were absent. It would be impossible not to come. When Robin Li communicated with them on the phone, he said that this meeting was related to Baidu's life and death. No one wanted the shares in his hands to turn into a piece of waste paper. Of course, he had to figure out what Robin Li was selling in Hulu.

The whole meeting was a bit dull. Robin Li directly explained the situation of 123 Navigation Network and explained his analysis results. After some discussion, the people in the conference room formed two factions. Most people felt that if Yahu bought 123, it would be too threatening to them. Some people also felt that Robin Li's words were a bit alarmist. These people were very confident in Baidu. They had their own skills and users, so they could naturally compete for market share through word of mouth, user reputation and advertisements. In their eyes, Zhongsou was just to catch them off guard while they were unprepared. The gradually stabilized market share is a proof. In the future, just find a way to get the lost part back.

Without being able to directly make all participants agree with their views, Robin had to launch a vote, and the final result was naturally to develop in the direction Robin Lee wanted.

Zhuo Ziyuan arranged the meeting with Liu Jiping at 8 pm. He didn't like to have dinner or socializing with strangers. It was just 8 o'clock, so there was no need to deliberately tell the other party that you came back after dinner. This was very impolite, but at this time, the other party would naturally understand that everyone would not have dinner together. Moreover, Zhuo Ziyuan's appointment was a coffee shop near the school, where he and Sima Bowen officially met for the first time, which also showed that only talking about work.

It was the same place as last time, and Zhuo Ziyuan faced the door. After both sides greeted him very politely, Liu Jiping said, "Mr. Zhuo, I really didn't expect that you were so young. Calculate the time of 123. At that time, Mr. Zhuo could think of establishing such a website. It was really not easy."

"Mr. Liu has won the award. Actually, I was not the first one of the websites. But I took over after he couldn't hold on." Zhuo Ziyuan naturally didn't care about these false names, and such things could be found by someone who was interested, and there was no need to cover them up at all.

"Isn't this just that Mr. Zhuo has a unique vision. After 123 came out, we have never paid attention to it. Until last year's battle, Mr. Zhuo was really powerful and he couldn't afford to take it. During that time, if everyone was asked to select the most unprovoked person on the Internet, Mr. Zhuo would definitely be on the list." Liu Jiping, who is a market leader, would naturally be able to get these flatteries.

"Mr. Liu, I really like to joke. I was forced to fight back at that time. In fact, at the beginning, I just wanted to calm down the situation. However, others were forced to force each other, so I could only make a move. At worst, I could defeat the death. Mr. Liu, do you think?" Zhuo Ziyuan said something in his speech.

"Mr. Zhuo said that when doing business, you naturally make money with kindness. There is no need to make everyone unable to get out of the market. However, we still admire Mr. Zhuo's methods."

"If you want to admire it, I should admire your company. In just a few years, I have reached the top position in China. Those international giants can only suffer themselves. So, your company is the role model for us to learn from." If you don't talk about the topic, don't talk about the topic. Anyway, there is still time, let's talk slowly, and Zhuo Ziyuan has also started a business flattery model.

"Mr. Zhuo has been awarded the award. We are all a bunch of people giving advice. There are several mountains behind us. How can we compare to Mr. Zhuo? We have achieved this with our own strength."

"How did Mr. Liu know that I was relying on my own power?" Zhuo Ziyuan smiled. He was trying to test himself openly. Why? If I were only alone, would you still think of a way to bully me?

"Oh? Could it be that there is capital intervention behind 123.com? Then do our negotiations also require their recognition?" Liu Jiping continued to test.

"Don't worry, Mr. Liu, 123 belongs entirely to me, and I have 100% possession. No matter how big the matter is, I can make the decision." Zhuo Ziyuan replied.

This made Liu Jiping confused. He just looked like I was not alone. Now he said that he held the website 100% and the test was invalid. Liu Jiping gave up and simply clicked it directly and opened a price. If it doesn't work, continue talking, "Mr. Zhuo, I won't beat around the bush. Let's get straight to the topic."

"Just as I wish." Zhuo Ziyuan agreed of course.

"I wonder what Mr. Zhuo's price positioning is like on 123.com?" Liu Jiping did not make a direct offer, but wanted to know Zhuo Ziyuan's needs.

"Mr. Liu should also know Yahu and the others' quotes. I refused without thinking about them. I don't know if Baidu can give me a suitable price. First of all, I declare that I am willing to sell 123 navigation network as a whole."

"I wonder if Yahu has given you a new offer. If it is not convenient to disclose it, just pretend I didn't ask."

"There is nothing to say. In the past two days, you have only come to me. The other two have not re-quoted or have not directly contacted me. It seems that Baidu is quite active." Zhuo Ziyuan said with a smile.

Liu Jiping felt awkward when he heard this. You mean, we are in a hurry. We are rushing to Baidu. But what can he do? They are really worried about being taken first by others. Baidu doesn’t know that Zhuo Zi is far from their mentality of not selling. "Mr. Zhuo is really open-minded. This is the style of our company’s work. Anything that can be accomplished today will never be delayed until tomorrow."

Zhuo Ziyuan smiled again. You can say whatever you want about your company. Anyway, others don’t understand it. You have the final say. "Haha, that's right, I also like this style of work the most."

"That's really a hero who has the same opinion," Liu Jiping did not get Zhuo Ziyuan's bottom, so he had to choose to take the initiative to offer. "Mr. Zhuo, Mr. Li attaches great importance to cooperation with you, so yesterday we held a high-level meeting to discuss cooperation with you. We unanimously believe that a visionary Internet entrepreneur like you is very suitable to be our partner. Therefore, Mr. Li disagrees with the public and hopes that Mr. Zhuo will become our personal shareholder of Baidu in the form of equity replacement, and also hopes that Mr. Zhuo can hold some positions in the company in the future."

Zhuo Ziyuan was a little dizzy. He never expected that Baidu would take the lead in proposing an equity replacement plan. This is different from what he thought. It is not that you should spend money, I don’t want it, you spend it again, and then I propose equity replacement. Why is it so suddenly? "Oh? I don’t know, how your company wants to replace it, and what kind of position can I hold in your company?"

"We want to use 25 million cash and 2% of the original equity to acquire 123.com 100%. We originally wanted to replace them all in the form of equity, but I thought that you should need some money to improve your life after working hard for so long, so Robin finally gave such a plan. As for the position issue, it's easy to say." Liu Jiping said.

Zhuo Ziyuan smiled again. He instantly understood that Baidu had no money and was a scam for his consideration. It was just that they were unwilling to pay more equity. If they had money, they would definitely be willing to solve it with money. The offer price of 25 million was probably to keep 10 million for bargaining. As for the 2% equity, he sent the beggar. He shook his head and said, "Mr. Liu, your offer is really insincere. It seems that you have not yet recognized the value of 123. So I don't think there is any need to continue talking. I'd better wait for other people who can find the value of 123."

After saying that, Zhuo Ziyuan started drinking coffee. Of course, he didn't want to refuse the party. Baidu was really a bit too bullying, and the gap with his own needs was too big.

"Don't, Mr. Zhuo, negotiations, isn't the important thing about negotiation? We quoted the price, and of course you can explain your plans to us. We are very sincere. I believe that no company will be willing to replace equity. What do you think?" Liu Jiping said hurriedly. He didn't know if the young man in front of him would really leave impulsively. If he was a veteran in the mall, he would be easy to judge.

"This is also called sincerity. I admit that you are willing to replace equity, which is indeed very attractive, but your offer is too low and disappointing." Zhuo Ziyuan continued to oppress.

"Mr. Zhuo, Baidu will be listed sooner or later. Once it is listed, its market value will be at least one billion US dollars, or even ten billion US dollars. At that time, even if it is diluted on the market, it will be at least two hundred million US dollars, which is equivalent to 160 million US dollars. With the 25 million you are now given, isn't this sincere enough?" Liu Jiping of course was fooled if he could fool him.

Zhuo Ziyuan looked at the man with eyes and a little fat, no wonder Robin Li sent him to negotiate. This guy is quite damnable and even said the future benefits at your fingertips. Zhuo Ziyuan knew the future direction and naturally understood that what he said was true, but in this situation, can he really get to that point? I guess Liu Jiping himself doesn't believe it so firmly, but now he says it seems that the 160 million yuan is stable, "Mr. Liu, you are bullying me young and think I am ignorant."

"Mr. Zhuo, you really wronged me. I really don't have the intention." Liu Jiping said quickly.

"Unforgivable, haha, you use possible future returns as a price. Isn't this bullying? Is it so sure about the future? What if Baidu lives without support in the future? Even if it is supported, what if the stock price is not ideal after listing, we have to calculate it, just use the current value. I also said that 123 in the future can be worth 1 billion US dollars. Will Baidu also exchange equity with me according to this valuation?" Zhuo Ziyuan's voice was a little raised, and he needed to put some pressure on the other party.

"Mr. Zhuo, you really misunderstood me. What I said to you is from the bottom of my heart. Moreover, Baidu will definitely be listed in the US, and the market value will definitely not be low. Just look at Google. Its current valuation can start with a price of 10 billion US dollars. However, since Mr. Zhuo is unwilling to talk about future development, we won't talk about it, we'll talk about it now."

Liu Jiping didn't expect that this young man in front of him who looked so difficult, it seemed that it would be difficult to fool him. It would be more real.
