Chapter 1041 Acting, I'm a professional
Zach was quite inexplicable, not knowing how this man from the mysterious East knew about his phone number. But after the other party revealed his identity, he didn't hate this person so much.
After all, they started building a virtual community on the Internet before they did, and now they are also involved in the development of Huaxia's largest instant social networking tool.
It is said that literati are inferior to each other, but in the world of programmers, people who can understand themselves are often only peers.
With his knowledge of social networking sites in the future, Zhao Fusheng successfully gained Zack's trust.
Then, he said that he had undoubtedly heard from a friend that Zach was going to create a website, and he wanted to give Zach some help.
As for his friend, Zach had heard of the name.
Brother Capital.
Recently, a private equity fund that has made a name for itself at Harvard University has invested in several businesses founded by Harvard alumni. It is said that the founder is from China and is an investment genius.
After all, Zach is only a sophomore, not the super-rich man who was later worth hundreds of billions of yuan.
The personalities that people show at different stages are actually different.
For example, if a person is twenty years old and appears as mature as a forty-year-old, he or she has either experienced too many things since childhood, or he can only be a time-traveler.
In the end, Zhao Fusheng only said that he was willing to fund Zach $1 million in his private name for the construction of the website.
Of course, this money is not meant to buy this website, purely because Zhao Fusheng also likes this kind of dating website, and he is also making a website called the school intranet.
Zack was still a little confused at first, but after putting down the phone, he looked over the wall and looked at the school intranet here in Huaxia, and was immediately inspired, and quickly contacted Zhao Fusheng, saying that he was willing to accept the money.
In his opinion, some of Zhao Fusheng's ideas coincide with him, and social networking sites will be an important part of the future Internet era.
$1,000,000, 30% ownership
This is Zhao Fusheng's stake in Facebook, of course, as the scale of the website expands, this share will definitely gradually decrease, but no matter what, Zhao Fusheng still quietly left his own secret chess in the United States.
Although the money was borrowed from Tan Kaixuan, Zhao Fusheng said that in the subsequent financing process of Facebook, Brother Capital can enter the market at any time.
He didn't hide this from Zack.
Zhao Fusheng bluntly told Zack, saying that he is not a very rich person, if the development results of Facebook need financing, if he wants to keep his equity share, he will definitely look for a partner, and Tan Kaixuan, the brother capital controller of his best friend, is undoubtedly the most suitable person.
"His relationship with me is the same as that of a relative. Zhao Fusheng used such words to give Zach a reassurance.
Zach didn't suspect anything, and then met with Tan Kaixuan and signed his name on the contract.
And Tan Kaixuan, although a little inexplicable, but out of trust in Zhao Fusheng, he also did what Zhao Fusheng said.
In his own words, Zhao Fusheng won't pit himself anyway, since this is the case, what are you hesitating about?
I have to say that Boss Tan's intuition in doing business is sometimes like a beast.

Many years later, when Tan Kaixuan was asked about the most proud investment in his life, Tan Kaixuan smiled and said: I probably believe in someone without reservation.
Everyone knew who he was talking about.
It was clear to everyone that he was right. Not everyone has the vision and confidence to fully trust someone who is not related to them by blood.
Sometimes, a person's courage and open-mindedness can really determine a person's fate.

"What should I do, do you want me to contact Ono now?"
Dong Chenxi saw that Zhao Fusheng didn't speak, thought about it and said to Zhao Fusheng.
In her opinion, since SoftBank Asia has begun to contact other dating sites, this is the right time, and if she contacts them herself, it can be considered that the future investment side can't sit still.
Zhao Fusheng smiled, thought for a while and said, "Yes, you can contact Ono now, just say that you have persuaded me and agreed to sell the school intranet." ”
After a pause, he continued: "But you have to tell him that SoftBank Asia's contact with other dating sites has made me very dissatisfied, and I plan to make the intranet bigger and completely defeat those who follow the trend." ”
In addition to the core technology, most of the websites actually follow the trend before they appear.
It's like after the fire on the school intranet, all kinds of similar dating sites have emerged in an endless stream, which makes people overwhelmed.
Most of the websites, including those contacted by SoftBank Asia, were built in imitation of the model of the intranet, but because of the late start, many of the websites are not well-known.
It is precisely because of this reason that their development speed is very slow and requires a lot of money to intervene, as long as they increase investment, they can expand the scope of publicity and increase the traffic of the website.
Zhao Fusheng's statement was very much in line with his impression in his ambitions.
Dong Chenxi nodded, took out the phone, and dialed the number left for her by Masao Ono before.
I have to admit that Zhao Fusheng and Dong Chenxi's guess was not wrong, after Dong Chenxi dialed the phone, Ono Masao's attitude was quite calm.
"Miss Dong, I think you misunderstood, we didn't want to buy other websites, but they took the initiative to find us SoftBank, hoping that we could pay attention to them. Ono Masao's voice sounded calm, and after explaining lightly, he said to Dong Chenxi: "Since Miss Dong has convinced Mr. Zhao, I think we can restart the negotiation." ”
Dong Chenxi nodded: "Mr. Ono, I hope you can abide by the agreement, I finally persuaded my boss not to mix other feelings with this acquisition, if some of your behaviors continue, I think, the acquisition negotiation of the school intranet is not impossible, Mr. James of Red Mountain Capital should be very interested in this website, isn't it?"
Hearing Dong Chenxi's words, Zhao Fusheng couldn't help but give her a thumbs up, not to mention Masao Ono on the other side of the phone.
Ono was quite surprised: "James, the one from Red Mountain Capital?"
Dong Chenxi smiled: "If the person in charge of Hongshan in Asia hadn't been replaced, I think it should be that person, shouldn't it?"
There was a long silence on the other side of the phone, and after a while, Masao Ono said slowly: "Miss Dong, tomorrow morning, please wait for me in your company." ”
"Okay. Dong Chenxi made an appointment with Masao Ono, and then hung up the phone.
Putting down the phone, Dong Chenxi looked at Zhao Fusheng: "It seems that Ono is in a hurry." ”
Zhao Fusheng shook his head lightly: "It's not necessarily that we're in a hurry, we want to calculate him, and people aren't trying to calculate us." ”
After a pause, he said calmly: "If it weren't for the last sentence you said about James of Red Mountain Capital, maybe this negotiation might have to wait for a while." ”
Dong Chenxi was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Zhao Fusheng would think so.
In fact, Zhao Fusheng is speaking from the heart, and he never underestimates any entrepreneur who can succeed in a field that he is not good at.
Masao Ono can become the speaker of SoftBank Asia, if he doesn't have some real skills, it is impossible.
What people are good at is how to obtain the maximum benefit at the least cost, in other words, in the matter of corporate acquisition, M&A and investment, whether it is Zhao Fusheng or Dong Chenxi, in the eyes of Masao Ono, he is very immature.
Perhaps, the double reed between himself and Dong Chenxi, after the other party may have left the company, he has already seen through it.
But even so, Zhao Fusheng believes that Masao Ono will still be very willing to cooperate with him and play a good show.
The reason is simple, because he is a businessman, a smart businessman.
Any businessman will not miss the opportunity to make money, even if he knows that his opponent is acting, as long as he is profitable, it doesn't matter, just cooperate.
……………………

Just as Dong Chenxi and Zhao Fusheng were talking, in the office of SoftBank Asia Capital Branch, Masao Ono was looking at several subordinates in front of him with a serious expression.
"Why don't I know that Hongshan Capital actually has contact with future investment?" With a cold face, Masao Ono didn't look so happy.
Dong Chenxi's last few words made him realize that he was not the only one who paid attention to this investment company, which made him feel a sense of crisis.
The commercial value of any high-quality product is not the same when there are no competitors and when there are competitors. The former may have the opportunity to buy it at a very low price, while the latter will require a lot of hard negotiations, and may even make a wedding dress for someone else.
As one of SoftBank's most formidable opponents in the world, the grievances between the two companies, Redmountain Capital and SoftBank, are undoubtedly evident from the reaction of Masao Ono alone.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ono. The subordinate hurriedly bowed and apologized.
"I don't need an apology. The two people in charge of the future investment are acting with me, and it doesn't matter if I accompany them to act. They like to sing double reeds, but I prefer to sing the east wind, but now, can any of you tell me how we should deal with it if Redhill Capital enters the market?"
Ono Masao looked at his subordinates with cold eyes, if these people don't come up with a solution today, then they won't be able to go to work tomorrow.
At SoftBank Group, there have always been only two kinds of people.
Capable and incapable.
The former stayed, promoted and raised.
And the latter, naturally, have to roll up and get out.
