Chapter 562: Cut off contact and start all-out war!
Although Li Jun's tone was arrogant.
But he didn't mean to be arrogant, but...
He was anxious.
Xunbao Media was ordered to suspend operations and rectify issues such as fire protection and taxation.
And at the same time.
There are also many negative comments about Treasure Hunt Media on the Internet.
Especially their two top anchors, Wei Yulu and Chen Li'er.
A fake independent female persona and some evidence of her past seduction of men were exposed.
A fake rich woman, but in fact she is a "debt woman" whose father ran away with her sister-in-law, leaving behind huge debts.
Then there is the issue of brewing with five grains.
Not to mention that the grain wine has been discontinued due to infringement.
Previously, Chen Lier sold it for hundreds or thousands of dollars per bottle, and said it was a free gift.
But it was revealed that the actual production cost of Wu Gu Niang is only 20 yuan per bottle!
In addition, some "manufacturers" jumped out and said that they were exploiting manufacturers and deceiving consumers.
Anyway, Xunbao Media is almost becoming the representative of evil forces on the Internet.
How can Li Jun not be anxious?
He just said "everyone is ugly".
In fact, he was not threatening Yang Zheng.
But...
"If Mr. Yang keeps up this fuss, the reputation of all live streaming companies will be ruined, and Zhengrong Media will not be immune!"
Li Jun expressed what he really meant when he said "everyone looks ugly".
What he said was indeed correct.
But Yang Zheng didn't care about this at all.
"Penguin started out as a plagiarist, using pirated products to suppress legitimate ones. Have fewer people used WeChat and Penguin? Have fewer people played the various pirated games under its name?"
"You have the highest counterfeit rate in the world, and have even been criticized by the government. Is your daily transaction volume low?"
Yang Zheng's two rhetorical questions blocked all the arguments that Li Jun had prepared.
Reputation is important, but not that important.
A good reputation can add icing on the cake, but it cannot provide timely help.
People with a bad reputation will be attacked when they are down, but when they are at their peak, they are still not afraid of wind and rain.
Like now.
Zhengrong Media did not encounter any problems, and the AOE damage directed at live streaming companies on the Internet did not hurt it at all.
However, Xunbao Media has been ordered to suspend operations and rectify its problems.
At this time, some malicious words were heard on the Internet.
It's as if it confirms its guilt.
After the storm is over, there will definitely be a "criminal record" left.
After being scolded by Yang Zheng, Li Jun calmed down a little.
He knew that Yang Zheng was soft-hearted and would not respond to harsh treatment.
So he slowed down his tone and said, "Boss Yang, don't act on impulse. We are just competing in normal business. Isn't it a bit excessive for you to use these tactics?"
"Ah."
Yang Zheng sneered and asked, "Are my methods excessive, or are you guys overdoing it by first poaching my operations team and then my anchors?"
Li Jun fell silent again.
After a while, he spoke again:
"Mr. Yang, don't forget that Zhengrong Media owns 50% of Xunbao Media's shares. Bringing down Xunbao Media would be a significant loss for Zhengrong Media, right?"
Yang Zheng sneered, "Then there's also 10% of Zhengrong Media's shares. Why didn't you show any mercy when you took action?"
If you hurt yourself by 800 and hurt the enemy by 1000, that’s a profit!
Both sides clearly think this way.
Without waiting for Li Jun to speak again.
Yang Zheng impatiently spoke again: "If you have any conditions, please put them forward immediately. If you don't have any, go back and discuss it and then call me."
Li Jun paused and said, "What does Mr. Yang want this time?"
At this point, how could he not know?
All the exchanges of interests he had made with Yang Zheng before were at the mercy of Yang Zheng!
"An agreement guarantees that Zhengrong Media will have no less than 30% of the recommended positions on the Taohuo platform."
Yang Zheng directly asked for an exorbitant price.
He was also releasing a smokescreen: he didn't want to completely break away from the practice of paying for goods.
"This is impossible!"
Li Jun denied it quickly and firmly.
Yang Zheng said calmly, "Then there's nothing to talk about."
"and many more!"
Li Jun was afraid that he would hang up the phone, so he shouted quickly.
"explain."
Yang Zheng said in a cold tone.
Li Jun said: "30% is too much, we can consider 10%."
He paused and continued, "We also have a request. Zhengrong Media withdraws its shares in Xunbao Media!"
Zhengrong Media owns a full 50% stake in Xunbao Media.
If you don't withdraw.
No matter how much they develop Treasure Hunt Media, they always feel like they are working for others.
Moreover, there are already quite a few treasure hunting media, operators and anchors.
Already has the foundation for independent development.
Of course, the most important thing is that Yang Zheng, whom they originally wanted to use, will obviously no longer be of use to them.
They had no choice but to break up.
Yang Zheng's thoughts raced, and after a while he finally replied, "Okay!"
It was obvious that Taohuo wanted to cut off contact with him.
And doesn't he want to?
The worst that could happen is an all-out war!
"You agreed?"
Li Jun seemed to have not expected that he would agree, and asked in surprise.
Yang Zheng said calmly, "If I don't agree, your next plan will probably be to hollow out Xunbao Media, right?"
"how can that be possible."
Li Jun replied with a dry laugh.
Yang Zheng ignored him and continued, "Even if we sell the goods, we will still have to withdraw our shares in Zhengrong Media. We will calculate the price difference based on the current market valuation of the two companies."
He just finished speaking.
Li Jun immediately denied it: "Impossible! The current market valuations of both companies are clearly inflated!"
Yang Zheng still ignored him and started calculating:
"Zhengrong Media's current market valuation is 75 billion. Your 10% stake is worth 750 billion."
"Xunbao Media's current market valuation is 240 billion yuan, and 50% is 120 billion yuan."
"So you still have to provide Zhengrong Media with 45 billion."
Li Jun was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Mr. Yang, do you think this is possible?"
If he agrees to make up the 45 billion.
So, all in all, he had paid a total of 70 billion to Zhengrong Media for the purchase!
Do you really think their money came from the wind?
Nothing else to say.
Just take the 45 billion as an example.
This is enough for them to hollow out and reorganize more than one treasure hunting media!
Yang Zheng spoke again: "I can make another concession. I don't want any recommended spots for buying goods."
He had really wanted to leave a way out before.
After all, the other party is paying for the goods!
It was attacked by Pinxixi, fought against by Douyin, and even faced official suppression.
However, it still holds the leading position in domestic e-commerce.
Is it okay for him to want to leave a way out?
But he suddenly thought of the fantasy he had in his previous life, that the gold coins earned from last hitting in League of Legends could be withdrawn.
In his previous life, he didn't dare to dream too big.
After being reborn, he didn't want to be still like this!
Isn’t it just paying for goods?
What’s the harm in trying once!
Even if I lose, I lose miserably.
So what?
He also has a short video track to follow...
At worst, I can come back and kill him later!
It’s really cool to have a lot of hidden cards.
"Boss Yang is so courageous!"
Li Jun also knew what he was thinking and couldn't help but sigh.
Personally, he really admires Yang Zheng's courage.
But his position and the information he knew told him that Yang Zheng was being stupid.
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Yang. Let's discuss it and give you an answer as soon as possible."
"Ah."
Yang Zheng responded and hung up the phone.
