Chapter 242: Mr. Sun, Who Is Determined to Win and Choked

CFido

Many netizens on the S forum commented:

David Zhang: This Singaporean F1 brother, thank you so much! However, don't be embarrassed, since it is legal. It’s normal for men to go and have fun, there’s no need to show off as roommates, hehe, we all know it...

Peter Li: F1 buddy, when will you go to Geylang to take some photos? Please provide various live broadcasts and photos of girls from all over the world!

Lei Jun: Oh my god, F1 brother, your prostitution experience is so good!

Andy Yip: F1 brothers, it’s okay! It seems that our next friend meeting must be held in Singapore. I propose that all dinner parties be held in Geylang...

Li Xiaofan: Haha, warmly welcome all seniors, I will definitely do a good job in all services!

Then, many netizens followed Andy Yip’s post and said: Oh, boss, you rich people should also be considerate of us poor people, can you? We have never even seen what a passport looks like, let alone bought a ticket to go abroad...

…

After Tang Xinyi returned to Singapore over the weekend, Mr. Tang invited everyone to have a meal at his mansion in Bukit Timah to welcome her, and Li Xiaofan was also invited.

Before eating, Tang Xinyi presented Ye Niya, Huizhen, Li Xiaofan and others with one of her landscape paintings.

"Xinyi, your level has greatly improved in just two months!" Huizhen complimented.

Tang Xinyi said proudly: "Hey, it's not bad..."

During the meal, Li Xiaofan whispered to Tang Xinyi: "My dear Singaporean partner, there are a few guests from Tokyo next Tuesday afternoon. Are you free to receive them together?"

Tang Xinyi said angrily: "As your Singapore partner, of course I have my duty!"

…

Just before 4pm on Tuesday, Son and one of his assistants came to the OUB Center building in Raffles Place.

Li Xiaofan and Tang Xinyi, dressed in formal attire, received the group.

When Li Xiaofan introduced the beautiful young girl next to him as his Singaporean partner, and Tang Xinyi greeted Sun Zhengyi in fluent Japanese, Sun Zhengyi was shocked.

Son Zhengyi said in Japanese: "Ms. Tang, how come your Japanese is so fluent and you have an authentic Tokyo accent. If I hadn't introduced you earlier, I would have thought you were a Tokyo native!"

Previously, Masayoshi Son and Sequoia Capital had conducted some investigations into the backgrounds of Tang Xinyi, her daughter, and the Tang Group, but the information did not tell them that Tang Xinyi's mother was once a Japanese, a beautiful stewardess from Tokyo.

Tang Xinyi smiled and said: "Mr. Sun, because our mommy is an authentic Tokyo native, I learned Japanese from my mommy since I was a child."

"Oh, so that's it!"

Entering the office on the 36th floor of the OUB Center, Son was also shocked by the unobstructed view of Singapore CBD outside the large office window.

Judging from the registration information of Singapore Yifan Private Co., Ltd. that he had obtained before, he always thought that Singapore Yifan was a small company, but he did not expect that Li Xiaofan's Singapore office was so luxurious!

After entering the conference room, Sun Zhengyi's first question was the same as that of many guests who visited Singapore Yifan Company for the first time. He asked in English: "Mr. Li, please tell me, Singapore Minghua Holdings and your Singapore Yifan Company What's the relationship?"

Tang Xinyi smiled and said: "I am a shareholder of Singapore Minghua Holdings and also a shareholder of Singapore Yifan Company. Mr. Sun, you can regard these two as the same company, but there are two company brands outside..."

These words were taught by Li Xiaofan to Tang Xinyi before. He expected that Sun Zhengyi would ask similar questions, and as expected.

"Oh, I understand. Mr. Li, I'm curious. I heard that your company is mainly engaged in commodity trading. How could you go to Silicon Valley to invest in Yahoo a few months ago? How did you pay attention to Yahoo in Singapore..." Sun Zhengyi asked Li Xiaofan with a smile.

Li Xiaofan smiled and said: "Actually, I am an experienced Internet user. Mr. Sun, do you know that Fido

S forum? "

"Well, I know. I played it before when I was studying at the University of California, Berkeley..."

“Did you know that in mainland China, the Chinese version of CFido was launched in 1991?

S Forum, a forum in Beijing at that time

Station S is called the "Great Wall" station. I am one of the first batch of CFidos.

Fans of Station S..." Li Xiaofan started to brag. Anyway, there is no tax on bragging. All this knowledge comes from visiting CFido recently.

S forum learned about it.

Son Zhengyi couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said: "Wow, 1991, that was amazing. Mr. Li, you can be considered a senior netizen!"

Li Xiaofan continued: "Mr. Sun, in fact, I have another company called Singapore Yifan Technology Pte. Ltd. in the Singapore Science Park. This Singapore Yifan Technology Pte. Ltd. is a joint venture between myself and the National University of Singapore. It was founded by several PhD students and top students in computer science. A few months ago, we were in Xinjiang. We discovered Yahoo while surfing the Internet in the computer room of the National University of Singapore. Later, Ms. Tang Xinyi and I made a special trip to Silicon Valley in the United States to meet with the two founders of Yahoo and those who were interested in investing in Yahoo. Mr. Moritz of Sequoia Capital and others, we finally finalized the project of investing in Yahoo..."

"Mr. Li, you have great vision!" Sun Zhengyi continued to praise.

Then, Sun Zhengyi looked into Li Xiaofan's eyes and smiled: "Mr. Li, I have a suggestion now. I want to buy your shares in Yahoo at five times the price when you originally invested in Yahoo. In other words, I I’m willing to buy your old shares in Yahoo for US$2 million. How about a five-fold return in just over three months? Are you satisfied?”

Sun Zhengyi’s price increased by $800,000 from the price of $1.2 million that tripled the valuation when he first met Li Xiaofan in Silicon Valley.

Sun Zhengyi looked at Li Xiaofan and thought: Young man, it’s already five times! Is it time to be satisfied? Don’t be ignorant of praise…

Unexpectedly, Li Xiaofan smiled at him very gracefully and said: "Mr. Sun, I'm sorry, I have no plans to sell Yahoo shares for the time being."

Hearing this, Sun Zhengyi became a little anxious and asked: "Mr. Li, please set a price. At what price are you willing to sell your shares in Yahoo?"

Since the last meeting in Silicon Valley ended on bad terms in May, before coming to Singapore, Sun Zhengyi continued to maintain close contact with the two founders of Yahoo, Jerry Yang and Ferro. At present, he basically understands that the biggest obstacle for SoftBank Group to increase its capital and acquire shares in Yahoo is Li Xiaofan.

Therefore, the purpose of his visit to Li Xiaofan this time was to negotiate the acquisition of Yahoo shares from Li Xiaofan, paving the way for the next large-scale investment in Yahoo and the future Yahoo IPO.

This time, he is determined to win!

Li Xiaofan continued to smile gracefully and said: "Mr. Sun, I'm very sorry. As I said before, I have no plans to sell Yahoo for the time being. Instead, I will continue to increase my capital and invest in Yahoo, or acquire funds from Sequoia Capital, Jerry Yang, Ferro's plan to acquire some shares from the two founders..."

Li Xiaofan's words immediately choked Son Zhengyi across from him.

Sun Zhengyi sat there and watched Li Xiaofan not speaking for several minutes. He didn't know how to continue the conversation.
