Rebirth 76: Industrial Internet Empire

Xie Bing was obviously stunned, why is your Zhiyuan Group found everywhere?

"Zhiyuan Group's investment tentacles are really everywhere! It also has a lot of investment in the fields of biopharmaceuticals and medical devices..." After being stunned for a moment, Xie Bing exclaimed in disbelief.

"Haha, invest! Sometimes it's like the ancients who wrote articles, and they got it by accident! A momentary unintentional move will get unexpected returns. The development of the mainland's biopharmaceutical and medical device fields is still very backward. Our original idea There is also an opportunity to acquire two European and American pharmaceutical companies, integrate them with local pharmaceutical companies in the mainland, and improve the overall level of mainland biopharmaceuticals..." Yang Mo said without changing his face and his heart was not beating. Even a veteran like Xie Guoming could not see him. A bit bragging.

Yang Mo is not completely bragging. In recent years, Zhiyuan International has been committed to equity investment in precision instrument manufacturing, biopharmaceuticals, and medical devices in the European and American markets. However, with Qian Ning's authority and the scale of funds under his control, it is very difficult for him to do so. It is difficult to obtain controlling stakes in these cutting-edge companies.

Xie Guoming's words just now awakened some vague memories of Yang Mo. He didn't know the specific business divisions of Charoen Pokphand Group, but the largest business in the mainland market, apart from CP feed, should be the company that controls dozens of large pharmaceutical companies. Chia Tai Pharmaceutical Group.

The backwardness in the field of biopharmaceuticals and medical devices has made China the largest market for Western pharmaceutical companies for many years, with almost one-third of operating income coming from this huge market.

Rich, reasonable, and respecting intellectual property rights, coupled with various Internet celebrity doctors who smear traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese medicine, and falsely promote Western "miracle medicines", these European and American pharmaceutical companies are embarrassed to meet their peers unless they double their prices several times. …

Xie Bing is actually a master of capital operation. He immediately discovered the business opportunity from Yang Mo's casual words: first pull the Zhiyuan Group onto the chariot of the Chia Tai Pharmaceutical Group that he carefully planned, and wait until the Zhiyuan Group really acquires one or two European and American companies. As a cutting-edge biopharmaceutical company, whether it is authorized production or technology transfer, the best choice is certainly the Chia Tai Pharmaceutical Group...

Thinking of this, Xie Bing smiled and said: "Mr. Yang! It's true that heroes think alike! Our investment focus at the current stage of Charoen Pokphand Group has indeed begun to shift to the health industry. We plan to increase investment in the biopharmaceutical field in the mainland. Including the field of traditional Chinese medicine, I wonder if Zhiyuan Group is interested in cooperating to develop the mainland pharmaceutical market?"

"What kind of cooperation method?" Yang Mo asked with interest.

"CP Group and Zhiyuan jointly established a pharmaceutical group company to deeply explore the mainland pharmaceutical market. In view of CP Group's accumulation of talents in this area, we will raise 60% of the funds, and the remaining 40% will be provided by Zhiyuan..." Xie Bing continued.

Yang Mo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Zhiyuan Group has made an exception once for Mr. Qiu. As the leaders of overseas Chinese businessmen, Zhiyuan has to give this face to the Xie family. Let's do it! Just like the Shinawatra cooperation model, Zhiyuan holds 55% of the shares, and Zhiyuan Group Group serves as the Investors, don’t ask about the decision-making and operation of the pharmaceutical group, let’s just call it Chia Tai Pharmaceutical Group…”

Yang Mo's words sounded like he didn't want to offend both parties, but he took advantage of this and reached a certain mindset.

In fact, the controlling stake of CP Pharmaceutical Group is not as important as that of Shinawatra. CP Group’s business idea is to control domestic pharmaceutical companies. If Zhiyuan wants to gain a say in a certain pharmaceutical company, it can definitely increase its equity stake in that pharmaceutical company. .

Shinawatra is different. Singtel, the largest telecommunications giant in Southeast Asia, has not yet been established. Shinawatra can fully use its first-mover advantage to quickly occupy the Southeast Asian market.

What's more important is that Qiu Daxin, a political strongman, will soon reach the top of Thailand's political arena and become famous. He may even feel that Zhiyuan is the driving force behind him. The benefits contained in this are far greater than imagined...

Yang Mo has another purpose for trying his best to catch up with the Chia Tai Pharmaceutical Group. The Charoen Pokphand Group is a serious Thai company. Even after the return of Hong Kong, the Chia Tai Pharmaceutical Group is still considered a foreign investment in the eyes of Western double-standard dogs. There will be fewer obstacles to acquire large foreign pharmaceutical companies!

The day after the verbal agreement was reached, Zhiyuan's legal and audit teams were ordered to rush to Bangkok.

However, Yang Mo suddenly received a call from Qian Ning from San Francisco: "Mr. Yang, with US$1.7 million, I have become the largest shareholder of Cisco. Can you do it?"

"1.7 million! What company's valuation is so..." Yang Mo asked casually.

Just in the middle of speaking, Yang Mo suddenly froze and froze there...

"A company that has just been listed on NASDAQ makes gateway servers. Its main product is advancedgatewayserver."

"Mr. Yang, are you listening?"

"Hey...hey...the signal is not good," Qian Ning didn't notice anything unusual about Yang Mo and continued to ramble.

"Continue, the signal was not good just now..." After a brief moment of confusion, Yang Mo explained with a smile.

"Cisco was founded in 1984. The founders were four employees of Stanford University. They invented the gateway server. In 86, due to an intellectual property dispute with Stanford University, they quit Stanford University to start a full-time business. They were rejected by dozens of venture capital companies. Later, it wasn’t until July 88 that Cisco used 7% of its equity to obtain an angel investment of US$30 million from Sequoia Capital!”

"Zhiyuan International is not among the dozens of venture capital companies that rejected Cisco, right?" Yang Mo joked.

"How is that possible? At that time, Zhiyuan Investment's branch in Silicon Valley had not yet been established!" Qian Ning exclaimed.

"Okay, continue talking..." Yang Mo nodded and said

“After Sequoia Capital invested, it appointed professional manager Moggridge as CEO of Cisco. Under the operation of Sequoia Capital, Cisco was successfully listed on Nasdaq six months ago. After the listing, Sequoia Capital’s equity was Diluted to 21%, the shares of the main founders Leonard Bosak and Santi Lerner were diluted to 14% each, and the shares of two other former Stanford University colleagues were diluted to 10.5% each... "Channing continued.

"Sequoia Capital wants to sell its equity? Their 21% equity is now valued at US$1.7 million?" Yang Mo asked excitedly.

"No, because of different business philosophies, there was an irreconcilable conflict between Sequoia Capital and Ms. Sandy Lerner, the main founder of cisco. The company's CEO Morgridge and two other shareholders kicked Sandy Lerner out of the board of directors... ..." Chan Ning explained.
