Although Yu Wenfei has tried his best to make the number smaller, the figure of 5 billion still scares Mr. Hu.

"Multi-...... How much?" Mr. Hu thought he had misheard.

Before Yu Wenfei could say anything, Zhou Mengyi, who was sitting next to him, answered for him, "Five billion!"

Mr. Hu glanced at Zhou Mengyi, although Zhou Mengyi was very beautiful, it was obvious that there was no five billion to attract Mr. Hu's attention.

He asked in disbelief, "Can it really be valued at five billion?"

"At least that's much. Yu Wenfei replied with a smile.

If it is lower than this number, then what kind of capital will he raise, in the first round of financing, the shares released by Yuwenfei will not exceed 20% at most.

If the valuation is less than 5 billion, the 20% share financing will not exceed 1 billion, what is enough money to do, it is better not to raise money!

Of course, Yuwenfei also has enough confidence, Facebook now has more than 40 million registered users, and when the 1.0 version is updated online, coupled with the excitement of Effie's big event, the number of registered users will still exceed 50 million in about a month!

At that time, it would be a joke to have such a huge traffic social networking site with a valuation of less than 5 billion.

Although Facebook does not have any profit model at present, but painting cakes and telling stories, in this regard, if Yu Wenfei claims to be the second, it is estimated that no one dares to say that it is the first.

Don't forget, he is the best-selling writer in China in recent years, and his storytelling ability definitely surpasses that of Lao Ma Xiaoma Zhang Zhaoyang......

After hearing Yu Wenfei's answer, Mr. Hu felt a storm in his heart.

True...... These people who do the Internet are black!

Yuwenfei's company, he has learned a little, the parent company Star Technology has a total investment of only 500 million, and the subsidiary Facebook has invested 400 million.

Even if it's Star Technology, it's only been about four months since it was established, not to mention Facebook, which has only been online for two months.

In just two months, Facebook's valuation has changed from 400 million to 5 billion?

That's more than 12 times over!

I took a group of people to hype up Xia Xin Electronics, worked for more than two months, and found relationships everywhere to post soft articles in the media, and hired a group of traders to make price differences every day, which was both up and down.

After a busy job, he earned more than 500 million, and only 200 million was distributed to himself.

I'm so happy that I think I've made a lot of money.

Look at people, they just set up a small website, and there is no big movement, but after two months, they dare to ask for 5 billion, at least this number......

People are really angry with people compared to people!

Or has it changed over the years, and you can't make money anymore?

Mr. Hu began to doubt life a little.

He hesitated for a long time, not knowing what to do next, his 500 million, it seems that even if he invests it, he won't be able to get many shares.

What's more, is that Facebook really worth that much money?

Don't be this kid deliberately fooling himself, when the time comes, please ask two investment companies to cooperate with the act and set up his own money......

Don't say it, there is really this possibility, 500 million is not a small amount!

For so much money, anything can happen.

Mr. Hu flinched a little.

Yu Wenfei glanced at him, understood his concerns a little, and said: "Actually, I have another project in my hand, Facebook is not too suitable for Hu Investment, and the other one is more suitable." ”

............

To be honest, Yu Wenfei didn't plan to let Mr. Hu participate in Facebook's investment at the beginning, because Facebook's financing is not only for money, but also for the identity of investors.

Yu Wenfei also agreed with the two principals of the school that he would let the school's investment fund participate, which can be regarded as a follow-up investment.

Jiaotong University's investment fund is not a lot of money, but with this background, it is of great benefit to Facebook.

Facebook's influence may not be so great now, and it is not too eye-catching, but if it continues to develop, when Facebook becomes both social and self-media, its influence will be noticed by relevant departments.

In the country, all media outlets must work under the guidance of the organization.

Instead of passively accepting guidance at that time, it is better to choose an organization close to you in advance, so that you can also protect Facebook from the wind and rain in the future.

Therefore, Yu Wenfei will definitely let the investment fund of Jiaotong University enter the market, and the shareholder of Jiaotong University cannot leave the market, even if the company is listed in the future, the board of directors must have a seat for it.

Jiaotong University's follow-up investment, then the VC that led the investment, Yu Wenfei, is ready to choose a large investment bank with a strong foreign background.

Facebook must be listed within two years, and it can only be listed on the NASDAQ, and the requirements of the domestic Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets are too high, and it is impossible for Internet companies to be listed in China at all.

There is only one way, which is destined for Internet companies to not be listed in China, that is, to make profits for three consecutive years!

Just kidding, how many Internet companies can make a profit?

Amazon has been in business for so many years, has it ever been profitable?

This is because the operation mode of Internet companies is completely different from that of traditional enterprises, Internet companies pay attention to quickly occupying the market, and it is best to achieve the degree of monopoly in the industry, even if they can't do monopoly, they must be among the top three in the industry!

That means continuous large-scale investment, including hardware facilities, staff recruitment, and promotion expenses!

Under such a model, perhaps future profits can be expected, but in the past few years, there is basically no need to think about it, so domestic Internet companies are listed in the United States.

If you want to go to other people's turf to circle money, then you have to pay a "protection fee", otherwise do you think foreigners' money is easy to earn?

At this time, it is of great significance to choose a strong foreign VC as a strategic investor.

Wall Street giants still have a strong influence in the United States, and with them as shareholders, that basically clears the obstacles for companies to go public on the NASDAQ.

So don't fail to understand why the major shareholders of those domestic Internet giant companies are all foreign-owned, to be honest, they don't want to do it.

But it really doesn't work if you don't do that, the company needs to develop, it needs capital, and domestic banks won't give you loans, nor will you go public for financing.

What can be done, you can only choose the cooperation of foreign investment banks and cut the cake for foreigners to eat.

However, this is also a mutually beneficial thing, and foreign VC people are really willing to invest money, often investing tens of millions of dollars in an inconspicuous small company, changing domestic financial institutions, and not understanding this investment logic at all.

Others dare to gamble and dare to invest money, and if you don't let people make money, then you can't say it.

In Yuwenfei's vision, Facebook's shareholder structure will consist of three parts.

Of course, he, the founder and largest shareholder, must firmly control the company's right to speak, even after several rounds of financing and listing, he must steadily get the largest voting rights.

As for equity, it depends on the situation, and it may be diluted to only 20 or 30 percent.
