Chapter 648: The Predator's Purpose

"Mr. Weiner, thank you very much for your attention to the Ark Company, I think so, Li Feng, the big boss of our investor, arrived in San Francisco today, and is currently resting in the hotel because of the fatigue of the journey, if Mr. Weiner has time, he might as well stay in Silicon Valley for a day, and Mr. Li Feng will come to the Ark Company tomorrow morning to investigate, and then we can invite Mr. Li Feng to discuss the cooperation between the Aurora Fund Company and the Ark Company. Jin Wenyan came up with a plan to delay the army.

"Li Feng, oh, I've heard of this name, it's an Internet entrepreneurial genius in your Huaxia, we know that the Vanguard Fund Company was led by Li Feng in the early days, and it seems that meeting a legendary person like him is not a bad thing. Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow, and I hope that all of you will consider my suggestion. Weiner said, and got up and left with the team.

Merrick breathed a sigh of relief, as a college student who had just stepped into society, Merrick actually did not have any negotiation experience and skills, and all the Ark executives here were also in their twenties, and Jin Wenyan was more experienced than Jin Wenyan.

But as long as Li Feng can come tomorrow, then everyone will be much more relieved, after all, Li Feng is the top in terms of experience and skills, although it is a bigwig on Wall Street, but I believe that Li Feng can come up with a proper way.

"Kim, thanks to you today, otherwise I would really not be able to answer the other party's words. "We are very optimistic about the Ark platform, and it is impossible for us to sell our shares, after all, this is our business, not an investment." The same must be true for you at Vanguard Fund. And we don't really have any financing needs at the moment, the company's cash flow is already very stable, and it can even generate a lot of profit to support the expansion of our project, in this case, even if the other party offers $100 million, it is actually not attractive to us. ”

Merrick's statement is actually very reasonable, after all, everyone has seen the rapid growth of the Ark platform and recognized the rationality of this business model.

And now Jin Wenyan also knows that with such a strong growth of Ark Company, it can become a large-scale investment platform of 100 million yuan within one or two years, and there are no competitors in this new business model in the future.

If the company is sold to a Wall Street financial consortium, even if it is only a stake, it is still not cost-effective. Because the other party is just an investment, not a career, they make judgments based on mechanical mathematical formulas, and when they think that the return on investment of this work is high enough, they will take action, otherwise they will let go.

"You're right, now is the golden growth period of the Ark platform, not to mention that the premium is only twice as high, even if it is five times, we may not be willing to make a move. Jin Wenyan said, "I believe that the growth of the Ark Company is not percentage, but geometric, driven by the word-of-mouth effect, the future of the Ark Company's business will soon be able to step out of Silicon Valley, covering the entire United States, and may even carry out international investment business, at that time, maybe our platform is a billion-dollar valuation, once we go public, the future market value will be higher." Therefore, our core goal now is to concentrate on doing a good job in the company and strive to make the company bigger as soon as possible. ”

Jin Wenyan's words made the executives present very excited, after all, Vanguard Fund has achieved great success in the American market, is a very investment vision of the fund company, since Pioneer Fund Company is so optimistic about the Ark platform, everyone's confidence has also improved a lot.

For the grassroots college students who have just graduated from college, their goal is actually just to create a small business, and they can have a stable income, and they would not have thought that in the next few years, the Ark platform will really become bigger and stronger, and become a super investment platform of tens of billions of dollars.

But now they see the dawn, but they didn't expect that in just a few months, the Ark platform has achieved a good response in the market, especially in the grassroots entrepreneurship circle in Silicon Valley, the Ark platform has been named the "financing artifact", which has greatly saved the financing cycle of grassroots entrepreneurs and led to the rise of a large number of grassroots entrepreneurship projects.

The same is true in the course of history, if it were not for the birth of the Ark platform, the rise of Silicon Valley startups would not be so fast, it can be said that the Ark platform has single-handedly optimized the financing environment of the entire Internet world, promoted the growth of a large number of small companies, and played a pivotal role in the development of the global Internet.

Jin Wenyan picked up the phone and told Lin Yuting about today's situation in detail, and asked her to tell Li Feng. This time, the financial predator Wei Na is not good, and if he is not prepared, Li Feng may not be able to deal with it properly.

At this moment, Li Feng was resting in the hotel, and received a call from Lin Yuting, and learned the details of the negotiation between the Aurora Fund and the Ark Platform in the afternoon, and he also felt that it was not good.

As the world's largest investment fund, Aurora Fund has always been very strong in its style, especially as an Internet investment fund, although the price given is relatively generous in terms of investment methods, it has always been said that there are few compromises. And once something does not satisfy them in the whole process, they will not only quickly withdraw the investment, but also support the opponent of the project, which causes a lot of psychological pressure on the entrepreneurs.

Therefore, in the entrepreneurial world, everyone loves and hates this investment method, except for entrepreneurs who plan to make a vote and leave, anyone who wants to calm down and do something is unwilling to be invested by Aurora No. 8 Fund.

While Ark has now seen initial success, their business model is not unrepeatable.

If Aurora Fund imitates the business model of the Ark platform and copies a similar financial investment platform with its huge market resource advantages, then the living environment of the Ark platform will immediately develop major changes.

This is one of the reasons why Merrick and others are worried.

Li Feng has not been in contact with such Wall Street predators, and he does not understand the logic of their actions, but since they have fallen in love with the Ark platform and refuse to let go, a battle with them is inevitable.
