[PS: Thank you, leader Mu Qiu, for the tip. I've been really busy these days. After the computer was installed, there were all kinds of things going on. Today, someone at home went under the knife again. By the way, let me tell you, my wife is due in late April, so I may only update twice a day. I'm not sure how long this will last. Anyway, after my wife is discharged from the hospital, she will update normally.]
"Mr. Jia, are you really willing to invest in us?" Huang Renxun couldn't wait to ask after everyone loved the United States.
"Of course, why else would I be here?" Jia Yapeng nodded and said, "After careful evaluation by our general manager, Mr. Harry Potter, we found that you and your founding team are very good, so we are happy to invest in your business."
"Great!" Huang Renxun and the other two founders were suddenly full of smiles. This investment could be said to have saved their lives.
"Now, there's a very important question!" Jia Yapeng said with a smile, "How much do you want to invest? How many shares are you willing to give up? "
"My shares are 40%, and the two of them each have 30%!" Huang Renxun said, "If it's possible, I'm willing to give up 8% of the shares, and they each give up 6% of the shares. A total of 20% of the shares. I hope to exchange it for an investment of two million USD!"
Huang Renxun said it almost without thinking. It seemed that Huang Renxun had been thinking about this price for a long time.
Two million USD could buy an Nvidia graphics card that would be worth tens of billions of USD in the future. This was obviously a very profitable thing.
In 2020, Nvidia graphics cards had occupied more than 80% of the independent graphics card market share.
"As far as I know, when the three of you first started the company, you raised two million USD!" Jia Yapeng said with a smile, "If that's the case, two million USD should be able to exchange for 50% of the shares. But now you're only giving 20%. Isn't that too stingy? "
"The other 30% is the value of the three of us!" Huang Renxun said proudly.
“20%！ That's the value of the three of you! " Jia Yapeng raised two fingers and said, "Two million dollars must be exchanged for 30% of the shares. This is my bottom line. Otherwise, I won't be able to answer to the company."
"No way." Huang Renxun and the others began to argue with Jia Yapeng. However, Jia Yapeng was very stubborn about the price. Among the three of them, only Huang Renxun was eloquent. The others were all taciturn. Moreover, it could be seen that in the heart of this founding member, 30% of the shares in exchange for 2 million US dollars was already very cost-effective.
"How about this: 60% shares and 600 USD investment!" Jia Yapeng suddenly threw out another proposal.
"No way!" Huang Renxun immediately refused. "I will never give up the control of the company."
"Don't worry, we don't want to control the company. We just want to maximize the profits. I can sign an agreement to reduce the voting rights of our shares by half. 60% of the shares will only have 30% of the voting rights. In addition, we can agree in the agreement that we will listen to Mr. Huang Renxun's opinion when it comes to the development and research of the company."
"Actually, you don't have to worry too much!" Jia Yapeng smiled and said, "Our investment companies usually don't interfere with the development of the company. However, we have a request, which is to send financial personnel to the company to audit every single cent of the expenditure. This money must be used for the development of the company. Otherwise, we have the right to file a lawsuit in court!"
"60% is fine, but I want 10 million US dollars. 4 million US dollars won't be used for the development of the company, but for our personal assets." Huang Renxun remembered that his wife hadn't bought new clothes for more than a year, so he sighed and said.
"Okay!" Jia Yapeng nodded. 10 million US dollars to buy 60% of Nvidia's shares was perfect. As for Huang Renxun's decision-making power, unless Huang Renxun wanted to betray the company's interests, Jia Yapeng wouldn't interfere with him. After all, he had done a perfect job in history.
"Then let's sign the contract!" Huang Renxun nodded. Both parties signed the angel investment contract on the spot. Soon, 2 million US dollars were directly transferred to the account. 30% of the shares of the future brilliant Nvidia belonged to the United States Priority Fund. Nvidia also officially became the first company invested in by the America First Foundation.
After Jia Yapeng completed the investment in Nvidia, Harry Potter on the other side also had some results. At least he had succeeded in meeting Pereman. However, according to Harry Potter's feedback, Pereman was quite difficult to deal with. Facing Harry Potter who wanted to buy Marvel, Pereman insisted on an offer of 80 million US dollars.
The reason was that Pereman bought Marvel with 80 million US dollars. Now that he wanted to buy Marvel, he naturally couldn't lose money.
Hearing this, Jia Yapeng really admired Mr. Pereman. The total market value of Marvel was less than 50 million US dollars, and it was still falling. Only a fool would pay 80 million US dollars for Marvel.
Of course, in fact, Boss Jia could pay 80 million US dollars for Marvel. However, Pereman, known as the Wolf of Wall Street, would definitely smell something fishy. Maybe next time, 80 million US dollars would become 100 million US dollars. Therefore, Jia Yapeng told Harry Potter that these were all Pereman's negotiation skills. He made Harry Potter bite the bottom line of 30 million US dollars and won't budge an inch!
However, this way, Harry Potter would be entangled with Pereman. The remaining three companies would have to be discussed by Boss Jia himself.
Among the remaining three companies, Apple Boss Jia was the last. After all, Apple's plate was the biggest now, with a total market value of 2.5 billion US dollars.
Moreover, the real key to Apple was not Apple, but Steve Jobs. Therefore, Boss Jia wasn't very interested in Apple now. Moreover, it was uncertain whether Apple could become the Apple of the future.
However, Apple's large number of patents were still very good. He wouldn't lose money if he bought it, but it was always right to put it last.
Then there was Qualcomm and AMD. At this time, AMD's market value was 500 million US dollars. Boss Jia didn't have the appetite to buy it for a while. Obviously, the only one that could be discussed now was Qualcomm.
At this time, Qualcomm was already a listed company in the US stock market. 65% of its shares were in the hands of the previous investors and founders. About 35% of its shares were circulating on the stock market.
If he wanted to buy Qualcomm's shares, it seemed that he only needed to buy it on the stock market. However, the problem was that if Boss Jia bought it directly from the stock market, it would directly raise Qualcomm's share price. In the end, he might have to spend two or three times the current share price to buy a part of the shares circulating on the stock market. This was very troublesome.
Therefore, the best way was to buy the shares on the stock market while negotiating with the senior management of Qualcomm to buy the shares from some controlling individuals or institutions.
Therefore, Boss Jia, who had nothing to do, began to buy Qualcomm's shares on the stock market. Because he was afraid that it would make Qualcomm's share price go crazy, Boss Jia bought very carefully. In five days, he bought less than 5% of the shares. But even so, Qualcomm's share price rose by about 0.5 US dollars. Many funds and individuals had already noticed that someone wanted to buy Qualcomm's shares. Then, the orders on the market became very few in an instant. Even if there were, many of them were at a high price.
Boss Jia understood that this was the limit of what he could do on the stock market. Unless he directly issued an acquisition request, it would be troublesome to buy secretly on the stock market.
Here, Boss Jia had to doubt the stock market of Hua Xia. The stock market of Hua Xia in 1991 was so pure. He could actually buy 70% of a company's shares on the entire stock market in one breath unknowingly.
It was obviously impossible for such a thing to happen on the stock market of the United States. There were too many smart people.
However, at this time, even on the stock market of Hua Xia, it was impossible to do this. With the various rules and controls of the China Securities Regulatory Commission becoming increasingly complex and perfect, Boss Jia's operation was difficult to reproduce.
Therefore, Boss Jia pondered for a while and then directly ordered the America First Foundation to send a purchase order to the major shareholders of Qualcomm, expressing his request to buy a part of their shares.
Then, Jia Yapeng ignored the surprised expressions of these executives when they received the purchase order. He now had to rush to Los Angeles because today was the official premiere of "Farewell My Concubine" in the United States.
