This person's subsequent experience is even more legendary, he was suddenly favored by Schmidt, the president of Aurora Fund Company, entered the Aurora Fund, the world's largest investment fund company, and quickly achieved dozens of times the income through several successful investments, and soon became a senior manager, in charge of tens of billions of dollars of funds, and became a figure in the market.

Nowadays, in many investment tutorials, many classic cases of Weiner's trading are put into it, which shows its position in the industry.

As the actual manager of Aurora 8 Fund, Weiner is extremely familiar with the situation in Silicon Valley and is also a direct participant in many projects in Silicon Valley.

Although he doesn't look down on grassroots companies like Shangzhou Company, since President Schmidt has a request, he will come to visit it, understand the actual situation, and spend a little money to buy the project if necessary.

"Mr. Merrick, we understand that now the growth of the Ark company is very high, and the business model is very novel, has become more and more favored by the market, now whether it is for entrepreneurs with financing needs, or for investors, your Ark platform has become a very good information distribution center, and we have noticed that your platform is very good for the review of entrepreneurial projects, and can even be described professionally, which makes the platform's credit system quickly established, and everyone's trust in the platform is getting higher and higher。 In short, we are very optimistic about the future development of your company. Weiner said.

What Weiner said was just a few polite words, in his heart, he still looked down on this kind of grassroots thing, compared with the powerful market research department of the Aurora Fund, the things of the Ark Company were simply pediatrics, and they couldn't even reach the entry level.

Merrick smiled and said, "Welcome to Mr. Weiner, we are a platform company, our business philosophy is to create an open investment platform, and use the platform as a means to drive the upgrading of the entire investment industry." Although the amount of information on our platform is not large, it is a process of continuous accumulation, and in the future, we will digitize more functions and develop in the direction of data analysis and corporate strategy consulting. ”

Merrick didn't know the purpose of Weiner's visit this time, because although Ark Company had contact with some investment institutions, most of them were small and medium-sized investment institutions, which was a drop in the bucket compared to Aurora Fund Company. Weiner's visit today is likely to indicate that they will make some moves in the field of Internet investment platforms.

So whether today's visit was good or bad, Merrick didn't know the bottom of his heart, and he seemed a little uneasy.

The same is true for several other management of the company, and many people have looked at Wei Na and others on the side of the Aurora Fund.

It didn't take long for Jin Wenyan, the investor representative of the Ark Fund, to also arrive, and Merrick looked at Jin Wenyan and gave him a look, meaning whether their backstage boss Li Feng would come today.

Jin Wenyan shook his head, and Lin Yuting told him that Li Feng was tired today and needed to take a rest, so he could come to the Ark Company tomorrow morning.

The time is really unfortunate, without the legendary figure Li Feng, whether it is Merrick or Jin Wenyan, they are all uneasy in front of a bigwig in the investment world like Weiner.

"We are here today, not just to chat, but our Aurora Fund Company has been paying attention to the Ark platform for a long time, and is very optimistic about your future development, so our President Schmidt personally authorized me to negotiate cooperation with your company, and our Aurora Fund Company is even willing to invest or acquire the Ark platform at a price higher than double the market, I wonder if everyone here has this intention?" Weiner said.

"Well, for this question...... We have to think about it. Merrick couldn't say anything immediately, "The company's cash flow is still relatively abundant, so we haven't considered opening a round of financing yet." ”

As the founder of Ark Company, Merrick actually does not have the final decision, because when Pioneer Fund Company invested in Ark Company, it was agreed to acquire 50% of the equity, so that the equity ratio of the founder and the investor is equal, and the two parties must reach an agreement through negotiation on any major matter.

In fact, Jin Wenyan can't understand why Li Feng did this in the first place, only Li Feng himself knows, because Ark Company will grow into a giant company in the American venture capital industry in the future, with an overall market value of more than 100 billion US dollars.

"According to the data of our company's market research department, the overall valuation of Ark is now around 30 million to 50 million US dollars, and if we want to acquire it as a whole, I can double it on the basis of 50 million, that is, 100 million US dollars, and acquire your company as a whole. Everyone here can become millionaires or even multimillionaires in an instant. "Of course, we will leave you with your current position, and if your platform joins our Aurora Fund system, you will become a part of the world's largest investment fund, and your battlefield in the future may not be Silicon Valley, but Wall Street." So, please consider my suggestion. ”

In fact, the conditions given by Weiner are very good, and if the executives of the Ark Company here say that they are not moved, it is false. But they don't seem to have a good impression of Weiner, who is known for his ruthlessness in the industry, a cold-blooded killer on Wall Street, who has helped the company make a lot of money while also bankrupting many of his rivals in just a few years.

If you cooperate with such a person, you can't do it if you don't have any real skills, and you are likely to be played to death by the other party.

The executives of the Ark Company are just a group of ignorant little sheep in front of the financial predator Weiner, and everyone is in awe of such a large company, but also feels afraid to approach, and feels that they are not qualified to be grassroots like them.

Even if Weiner opened a sky-high price code of 100 million US dollars, which can make this group of grassroots turn into multimillionaires overnight, everyone is not only happy but also has an extra layer of fear, although money is important, but you still have to have the ability to take it.

Looking at the natural sense of superiority on the faces of Weiner's group of people, Merrick and others were very uncomfortable, perhaps they were grassroots and naturally repulsed by this kind of financial predator, so deep in Merrick's heart, there was actually a great rejection of them.
