Chu Qiuchen really doesn't know what they are excited about, such a small broken company, whether it can survive in the future is still a question, maybe it is a bamboo basket to draw water, it is better to build a building, at least increase the price and it will definitely be sold.

Chen Bei is different, he trusts this matter from a technical point of view, let alone Wen Xiaoguang.

One was done, and there were two left, but it wasn't all smooth sailing.

When he called Sarah back to the company to sign the contract, the woman told him that Airbnb had crossed the angel round and was preparing for its first round of formal funding, and that 2010 was the year of significant growth for the company, and although it was only August now, the trend was already there.

Because of this, they need capital to expand their business, which is where much of the motivation for financing lies.

The problem is that the three co-founders aren't ready to finalize this anytime soon, and the company has been around for three years through an early existential crisis, so they're already planning to approach a number of VCs and pick the best mix among them.

In other words, it is impossible for Wen Xiaoguang to settle down before returning to China.

It could last anywhere from three months to six months, unless you throw $100 million at him, but that seems too weird, and there's no need to wait two more months.

The earliest seed investment is generally very fast, because the company is small, the standardized operation system has not yet been formed, there are only a few people in total, and most of the leaders are satisfied with the decision immediately.

Compared to Uber, it is much simpler, although they have been founded, several founders have moved to San Francisco, but the market has not yet seen them release any official products, and the company's overall valuation will not exceed $4 million, a world away from the later $120 billion.

It's all startups, but one already has a product that's improving, one doesn't even have a product, and the other needs more formalized contact with each other, the world is so diverse, and the situation is really different.

This prompted Wen Xiaoguang to have an idea.

A subsequent phone call from Coombe also convinced him of that idea.

It's not that Sarah is not enough for capital, but also needs someone who can cooperate with her and make up for her flaws.

Out of some consideration, he looked for Chu Qiuchen first.

The woman was accompanying Song Yiqiu to play on the improvised golf course behind her villa.

Wen Xiaoguang also brought a hat to cover the noon sun.

Song Yiqiu's posture is very standard, with white gloves and straight thighs, and he almost went into the hole with a ball.

"There's something I want to talk to you about. ”

Chu Qiuchen pressed the club, "Say it." ”

Wen Xiaoguang really said directly: "I will leave Chen Bei in Silicon Valley." ”

There are not so many things to do as they please, sometimes they are needed, and personal feelings have to give way, because it is about tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions of dollars.

He is not very relieved that there is no one left to continue to pay attention to these technology companies. The business situation of each quarter, the contact with venture capital, and the next round of financing plans, these are all things that he has no intention of controlling, but he needs to know.

Especially the financing plan, he is ready to chase the investment to get the maximum benefit.

From the perspective of a start-up, if an investment institution runs away with a shot, the earliest 'help' will gradually be forgotten by people's hearts, and then they will find ways to dilute you and kick you off.

In this world, there is no such thing as really lying down and counting money, and even if it does, it is temporary, because the game between capital and entrepreneurs has never stopped.

"Why?" Chu Qiuchen didn't mess around like a little girl, she just wanted to know why.

"I now realize that doing a good job in an investment institution focusing on technology companies actually requires people with strong professional ability, I leave the money, and run away with the equity certificate, then the name of not capital will be bad in the future, and at that time there will be only garbage companies that are willing to accept our investment, only garbage companies that want money. ”

"Of course, Qom also asked for help from us, and he asked Chen to stay on the condition that it be added by another three percentage points. ”

It's understandable that people want to get help other than money from investors, just like Li Keyang didn't just give him money at the beginning.

Chu Qiuchen understood, but she asked again: "Are they going to dig people?"

"I don't believe it without that. Wen Xiaoguang also understands in his heart, but he also has self-confidence, "But what I can't dig up, just like I can't dig Zhang Xiaolong, there are only two reasons for leaving, one is to feel wronged by money, the other is to feel wronged, and the rest is the resignation of the nerve knife of literary and artistic youth." ”

What to say, the world is very big, I'm going to take a look, damn it, you take a look at your account balance first.

These Chen Bei should not be occupied. Wen Xiaoguang is very willing to give money, because he knows that compared to the value that technology companies will bring in three or five years, these salaries are really half a hair.

"Did you tell him?"

"No, but I don't think he should be annoying," Wen Xiaoguang understood him, and then his tone softened, "I wanted to talk to you first, because I feel sorry." ”

"Thank you," Chu Qiuchen also told the truth, "As for me, if I don't stop you, I can't stop it, but you can't stop me from complaining." ”

Wen Xiaoguang smiled, "On the plane back to China, I can listen to you all the way, now I have to go to him first." ”

After he left, Chu Qiuchen smashed the club in his hand on the ground, "What's so good about these broken companies!"

"Haven't you already agreed, why are you still angry?" Song Yiqiu was startled.

"I agree, do I just disagree?" Chu Qiuchen interjected, Wen Xiaoguang looked for her first, and really let her have nothing to say.

Even Song Yiqiu said: "The boss of the family came over with you to apologize first..."

"You don't know Wen Xiaoguang's style. Chu Qiuchen still picked up the club.

Song Yiqiu asked, "What style does he have?"

"Never speak hard words, never do soft things. ”

My sister groaned slightly when she heard this, it was difficult for her to combine that face and that image with Chu Qiuchen's description, he was obviously a very approachable person.

Chu Qiuchen saw that she didn't believe it, and said: "When I sold Ukeliangpin, there was an investor surnamed Li who was resolutely opposed, do you know what he did? He knew that person would object, so he simply hid from him and contacted the buyer. ”

"I've known him for so long, he's never seen him fight over words, just like this time he must have known that I'm upset, so he's ready to complain, but things don't stop him from doing it. ”

"Hey!" Chu Qiuchen suddenly found that his sister was in a daze, "Did you hear me talking to you?"

"Listen, hear. Song Yiqiu was slightly distracted, she was attracted by the description just now. This little boy turned out to be like this, and she couldn't figure out how she could manage those excellent people at this age.

The other side.

Chen Bei also asked Chu Qiuchen.

Wen Xiaoguang dispelled his concerns, "Anger is for sure, I brought you from Zhonghai to Beijin and brought you here, everyone will be angry, but I have already told her." And you don't have to stay here all year round, in order to report to me, you have to fly to Beijin every two or three months. ”

"Okay, I know it all. ”

Chen Bei is naturally obedient to the arrangement, and he doesn't hate the nature of his work, and even likes it a little, after all, he is thirty-five or sixteen, where can he get those little young people who stay up late every day, and now he has such an opportunity, and he is still in the technology industry, in Silicon Valley, what else do you want to pursue? God.

Wen Xiaoguang felt a lot more relieved, "Then with you, I am ready to return to China, and our confidential project is also a critical time." ”

It's really hard to stay here.
