328. Why can't it be sold?(2/2)
Back in the office, looking through the floor-to-ceiling windows, I happened to see Sun Ying leaving in a car.
After sitting there for a while, someone knocked on the door again.
After Chen Dongcheng asked someone to come in, he looked up and saw that he was still an old acquaintance.
"Why are you here?"
Chen Dongcheng looked at Cheng Wei, quite surprised.
"Why, you don't welcome me?"
Cheng Wei asked with a smile. He looked much fatter than before.
Didi no longer has to live the hard life of poverty. As the leader of Didi, Cheng Wei's treatment in all aspects naturally follows suit.
Chen Dongcheng smiled and shook his head, motioned for Cheng Wei to sit down first, and poured a cup of tea for Cheng Wei.
"Tell me, what brought you here?"
Cheng Wei took the tea cup, closed his eyes and took a sip, and said with a sigh: "Tsk, tsk, as expected, your office is full of good tea. I miss you, why don't you come over and see you?"
"Come on, I'm not a beauty."
Chen Dongcheng smiled and said: "Let me guess, the company under my name that can establish a relationship with Didi is Grab or Qingju Technology?"
"Oh, you are such a thief, I knew I couldn't hide it from you."
Cheng Wei put down the teacup, put his right leg on his left leg, and leaned back, the aura of a boss growing stronger and stronger.
"I have something to do with both companies when I come here. Among Grab's current shareholders, your shareholding ratio ranks second.
Liu Qing just led the team to secure a financing deal not long ago, and we plan to acquire your shares."
"Not for sale."
Chen Dongcheng answered very simply.
Cheng Wei smiled bitterly and said: "I said you should hesitate and give me some face!"
"Now is not the best time for me to sell."
When Cheng Wei heard that there was something going on, he asked, "What do you mean?"
"Literally speaking, if Didi is still interested in Grab after several rounds of financing, I can consider transferring the equity I hold to you."
After Chen Dongcheng finished speaking, Cheng Wei fell into deep thought.
He knew Chen Dongcheng's vision very well. He was able to invest in grab earlier than them. It must be said that he had a very vicious vision.
Didi paid a heavy price to forcibly swallow up Uber China in exchange for its monopoly position in the country.
It is precisely because of this strategy that this round of financing went so smoothly.
Just by looking at the list of investors in their F-round, you can understand something.
The simultaneous investment of Tengxun and Ahri is rare in the domestic Internet circle.
Here we have to admit Liu Qing’s financing ability.
A financing amount of US$4.5 billion, a bank loan of US$2.5 billion led by China Merchants Bank, and a debt investment of US$300 million from Kang'an Bank.
With so much funding in hand, Cheng Wei is naturally eager to expand Didi’s boundaries.
The taxi-hailing software market in Southeast Asia immediately became his first choice for expansion.
But Grab is the leading taxi-hailing software in Southeast Asia, so it is unavoidable.
Since it cannot be avoided, then find a way to increase your shares in grab.
SoftBank, which was number one, did not dare to move and could only contact Chen Dongcheng, who was the second largest shareholder.
Cheng Wei planned to skip grab first and asked: "Since you don't plan to sell your equity now, will you always accept our investment in Qingju Bicycle?"
"What's the point of just investing? Are you interested in buying Qingju Bicycle for fun?"
Chen Dongcheng suddenly threw a nuclear bomb at Cheng Wei, which stunned Cheng Wei on the spot: "You want to sell green orange bicycles?"
"Why can't it be sold?"
Chen Dongcheng began to confuse Cheng Wei: "First of all, Didi needs to further develop in the field of travel.
Qingju Bicycle can enrich Didi’s travel scenarios and analyze travel big data.
Secondly, I heard that Magnesium Group has made some moves, and they seem to have great ambitions in the travel field."
Cheng Wei frowned immediately. He had long regarded the travel field as his home base.
No matter who dares to reach out to this field, Cheng Wei will definitely chop off his hand.
However, Chen Dongcheng's proposal really made Cheng Wei a little tempted.
