Chapter 358 The Impact of Daum
This also rapidly increased the reputation of Ding Lei, the company's general manager. Young cadres who had ideas and wanted to make progress were even more motivated to work hard and contribute to the company's subsequent listing.
…
After everything was arranged, Zhang Junfeng and Wu Xiuying, accompanied by bodyguards, boarded a flight to America.
But before going to the airport, Zhang Junfeng sent an email to Catherine Zeta-Jones, announcing his upcoming arrival in the United States, hoping to meet her after arriving in the United States. It has been a while since he last saw the heroic English rose, and Zhang Junfeng really missed her.
As for Sofia Vergara, with whom he had a relationship a few years ago, she had hardly contacted him in the past two years. Zhang Junfeng did not care. After all, there was not much affection between them. They both got what they wanted. The other party got real benefits from him. It was reasonable for them to go their separate ways since their goals had been achieved.
…
As Daum's stock price continued to rise, various good news emerged one after another. Many executives of large companies who were originally on the sidelines began to buy Daum's stocks, intending to take advantage of this wave and make a fortune.
The speed at which the market value of Internet technology companies has skyrocketed is more than what their companies can earn in a year if they work diligently, and faster than robbing a bank. This is also the main reason why they are so itchy.
However, the number of people who rushed to buy Daum's outstanding shares far exceeded everyone's expectations. Even though many traders offered a purchase price of 15% premium, unfortunately they failed to snatch many shares from many competitors.
(Note: The price limits of the Korean stock market are set within ±15% of the previous day's closing price. This means that if a stock's closing price on a given day is 100 yuan, then the highest price on the next trading day cannot exceed 115 yuan, and the lowest price cannot be lower than 85 yuan.) Among the various forces that were most enthusiastic about acquiring Daum, the Five Star Group and the Yuetian Group were the most enthusiastic.
The former was because of his son-in-law Zhang Junfeng. Li Jianxi always felt that a smart man like Zhang Junfeng would not spend so much time and energy on meaningless things. Since Daum was created by Comet Capital, it would definitely have a good increase in revenue. As an old man, he was still willing to take a gamble!
As for Yuetian Group, it is a bit special. As the chairman of the group, Xingehao himself does not have much feeling for Daum. After all, in his opinion, the market value of a company should be linked to its performance and revenue, rather than those vague data such as market share and registered users.
However, Shin Dong-joo, the new vice president of Yuetian Group, was very concerned about this and even proposed that a special fund should be mobilized to acquire Daum's shares.
Shin Dong-joo, who pays close attention to the development trend of the Internet industry, is naturally well aware of the hot market in the United States. How can she not pay attention to the sudden rise of such an Internet technology company in Asia and even in Korea? In particular, in addition to conventional products such as free email, search engines, and portals, this company Daum has launched another core selling point - KaKao Talk!
You should know that now, in addition to teenagers and game fans, a large number of middle-aged people have registered and used KaKao Talk. Using this software at work has greatly improved communication and work efficiency and even helped them save a lot of phone bills.
However, Xin Gehao still stubbornly insisted on his own ideas and did not agree with or adopt Xin Dongzhuzhu's proposal. Xin Dongzhu was very annoyed that he could not get funds from Yuetian Group to purchase Daum's shares. Now the opportunity to make money is right in front of him, and he just watched it helplessly. It was really aggrieved.
After thinking for a long time, he thought of his mother, Shigemitsu Hatsuko, who was far away in Japan. He wanted to use the strength and connections of the Shigemitsu family to raise a large amount of funds to acquire Daum's shares. At the same time, he also wanted to use facts to prove that his vision was correct and that his father, Xingehao, was outdated!
Chongguang Hatsuko agreed to Shin Dongju's call and request without much thought. Previously, the Chongguang family suffered heavy losses in the financial crisis last year, and helping their second son Shin Dongbing also cost them a lot of money. They continued to make profits to make up for the previous losses.
…
Of course, in addition to the hot market, a large number of institutions and investors rushed to buy Daum's shares, but also some doubts and oppositions quietly emerged. A few financial experts expressed concerns about Daum's continued rise in the market when interviewed by the news media.
I believe there is still a huge gap between Korea's Internet technology companies and America's Internet technology giants. I advise everyone to invest cautiously to avoid unnecessary losses.
In response to this negative news report, President Li Zaixiong immediately made a decision and ordered his subordinates to prepare detailed information and data analysis and comparison, intending to severely slap the faces of financial experts the next day. Although Daum is not as good as the Internet technology giants in the United States, those small and medium-sized Internet companies may not have such outstanding results as them! ——————Dividing line——————
9pm, New York, America.
After nearly fifteen hours of flight, Zhang Junfeng and his team arrived safely at New York's Kennedy Airport.
Through the airport's VIP special service, the airport staff quickly arranged a special vehicle for Zhang Junfeng and others, and took them to the Four Seasons Hotel on Fifth Avenue.
Not long after they completed the check-in procedures and returned to their rooms to rest, there was a knock on the door of the luxury suite where Zhang Junfeng was staying.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Zhang Junfeng reluctantly stood up and opened the door, wanting to tell the room attendant that he did not need service for the time being, but when he opened the door, he found that the person standing in front of him was Catherine Zeta-Jones!
She was wearing a red dress, leaning against the door, staring at him with deep and charming eyes. Her brown curly hair fell like a waterfall, adding a bit of charm and style. She was holding a bottle of red wine in her hand. "I brought Lamontagne's red wine. You... don't want to invite me in to sit for a while?"
Zhang Junfeng came to his senses and quickly stepped aside to let Catherine Zeta-Jones walk into the room. Looking at the other person's flawless naked back, Zhang Junfeng realized how well designed the red dress this woman was wearing was! (End of this chapter)
