In a nervous mood, Yu Houde walked through the outer corridor and a garden of Gu Zhuang, and then in a side hall, he saw Ma Feng, who he had asked to see for a long time.

As soon as they met, he was in a state of agitation, but he still forcibly suppressed his emotions, first said some polite greetings and words of kindness, and then dared to enter the topic and pleaded:

"Brother Ma, Mr. Ma, this is the current situation of our company. You see, we still have hundreds of thousands of customers who have used our products. Only a small part of the people who travel to Lanfang are here, and the historical performance of our domestic tour group booking is also good.

You can't beat us to death with a stick just because we have sold Lanfang's zero fee group, a website has been promoted from a lonely name to the current popularity, advertising costs, other various operating and promotion costs, and dividends in the trough period of traffic value, how much effort has been spent.

Even if you think that the cold winter period of the Internet is not over yet, but the price of traffic is cheap during the cold winter period, and when the cold winter is completely over, the traffic will become more expensive, and the cost of customer acquisition will also increase.

In the face of Houde's plea, Ma Feng was also a little sympathetic to this young man in his heart, but seeing that the other party was only twenty-three or four-year-old and could withstand setbacks, he didn't hesitate to knock it:

"Little brother, I look at your information, I am 24 years old this year, and even my work and entrepreneurship are less than two years old. Even if Ding Sanshi founded Huang Yi, it was 26 entrepreneurship and 29 NASDAQ listing, and he was already shocked by insiders.

I came out to start a business after the age of 30, and the first two years were still foolish? Believe me, young people who have just graduated and failed once have only failed will only fall worse when they do encounter them in the future.

While you are only 24, the end of the company is good for your life, and you will suffer a small loss now, so as not to suffer a big loss in the future. People who have never suffered a small loss do not know the importance of the original intention, do not know the importance of adhering to values, and are easy to have milk is a mother. You should think of it as an experience for your stance is not firm enough and your determination to resist the evil business model is not firm enough.

And I also suffered losses in my early 30s for two years, but in the end, I sold one or two million shares of the failed company when I exited, so when I started the second time, the capital was enough, and the angel round did not need to be taken up by investors too much of the shares. Otherwise, if I start my first business and go to the end, I may become a high-level wage earner who marries others and makes money purely for investors. When the Chinese Yellow Pages died, didn't I have nostalgia? ”

Ma Feng's words are really sincere, and he can be regarded as a heart-to-heart for the younger generation.

At present, the main dilemma encountered by Yu Houde's "Donkey Journey Network" is that the goodwill and reputation have been beaten more and more stinky, causing capital to lose imagination about its performance, and feel that "even if hundreds of thousands of people have paid to use this network before, those customers are not loyal, and they are suppressed by Gu Kun, so there will definitely be no future in the future."

In other words, it's not that they are really in financial trouble, and the money invested by Ma Venture has not yet burned out. If Ma Feng, as a large investor, is willing to accept the liquidation of this company, then the state at the time of liquidation is not insolvency, but that there are still net assets that have not been spent.

For example, the founder may still have 30 or 40% of the equity after several rounds of cash-burning financing, while Ma Feng, as a large investor, may hold more than half of the shares, and then there are more than a dozen points that are invested in the shares by other backbones at the time of the founding, or the shares of the manager given according to the VAM agreement when the situation was good.

In this way, even a company with a valuation of tens of millions of dollars, a cumulative investment of several million dollars in cash, and a remaining net worth of less than a million dollars may be liquidated. That Ma Feng can also get back more than 500,000 US dollars from the million US dollars of corpse money, and Yu Houde, as the founder, can also get back 300,000 US dollars, which is more than 2 million yuan.

And considering that when he first came out to start a business in Houde, he may have been stuck with the bottom line and took 500,000 yuan to play by himself, but now that he has only been in business for less than half a year, 500,000 yuan will become 2 million yuan and return it to him, in fact, it has already been earned.

It's just that he originally had a lewd imagination space, and he could imagine that if "Donkey Travel Network" really replaced it with a convenient travel network and became the first Internet travel booking platform in China, it would be more than 2 million yuan. At that time, if it develops over time, the company's market value will be at least tens of millions of dollars, and his more than 30 percent equity may be worth $30 million.

Compared with 500,000 yuan at the beginning of the year, the value of 2 million yuan has indeed increased by four times. However, compared with the tens of millions of dollars that "if you really become the first in your peers", it is still dozens of times the loss. It is this kind of lack of comparison that makes young people unwilling and illusionistic.

Ma Feng's words just reminded him not to just stare at that "expectation", so that he floated and blinded his eyes.

Put yourself in your shoes, when Ma Feng started to engage in Huaxia Yellow Pages, his own funds were only 300,000 yuan, including borrowing from relatives and friends. And when he sold his part of the equity in the Huaxia Yellow Pages and started another Ahri Baba, his own starting capital was already 2 million, which led to Ma Feng's personal ability to have so many shares in the initial stage of Ahri Baba.

A better example is Ding Sanshi and Huang Yi, Ding Sanshi first worked in other Internet companies and made hundreds of thousands or millions of extra money by doing private work in technology outsourcing, and then opened Huang Yi with the savings of extra money, so Ding Sanshi's shareholding ratio is so high.

Yu Houde was very reluctant, but after all, his eyes were opened, and he said in disbelief: "I didn't expect it...... It turns out that in your eyes, Donkey Tuwang is already an existence waiting to be 'divided into corpses and sold for meat', and it has no value to be evaluated as an organic whole of a company...... Before I came, I was aware of your desperation, but I didn't expect it to be to this extent. ”

Ma Feng patted him on the shoulder: "The company has been demolished and terminated, which does not necessarily mean that you are not good as a person." This time, you are not the initiator after all, you are not the initiator, you are not the one who invented this kind of vicious trick to lower the lower limit of the Chinese tourism industry, you are just following the trend. So, as long as this company pays for this kind of behavior, it's fine. You are still young and can mend your ways.

After liquidating the company, withdrawing the money, taking a good vacation, and then inspecting the industry market, in-depth reflection and summary. In a year or two, you will re-emerge with these capitals, as long as the business model is feasible, you can think of another way to take the right path to engage in Internet tourism entrepreneurship, I will still support you, and even Mr. Gu himself may personally support you.

If you don't have the bottom in your heart, I'll make an exception and tell you something - I think you're a good person and can be saved, so I'll talk nonsense to you. Boss Bao of the crowd network game knows, right? He also came today to drink with Mr. Gu. ”

Yu Houde was slightly stunned, and hurriedly answered: "I know, I know, who doesn't know Boss Bao now, the first person on the Internet in China." In this world, the most popular Internet companies belong to them to make online games, and this track is destined to return, and they can't be envied. ”

Ma Feng: "Don't worry about envy! Boss Bao is beautiful, do you know that he recently lost a lawsuit in the capital." Moreover, it was Mr. Gu who made him lose. ”

Yu Houde was quite surprised: "I didn't pay attention to this, I don't care much about legal affairs, but...... Is there anyone in the world who takes the initiative to send people to lose the lawsuit......? Let's not be taboo to ask. ”

Ma Feng smiled indifferently: "If you commit a taboo, I won't mention it to you - it was in the second quarter, the employees of Zhonglian Games who had operations really saw the money and stole it, changed the database data in the background of the server, and changed some game equipment to sell to players privately, making a lot of profits."

In the end, the civil and criminal cases of this case were sentenced, and the criminal part, the crime of destroying computer information systems, there is nothing to say, Boss Bao did not comment a word from beginning to end, and he was sentenced fairly.

However, in the attached civil lawsuit demanding compensation for the company's losses, when determining the amount of infringement, Zhonglian Games lost - and it was also lost on official business, and Boss Bao absolutely did not have any interests involved, he just publicly stated that he would judge how he should be judged, and he definitely did not need to give his company face. And even if he loses, he will only pay more taxes this year.

I think the Intellectual Property Court said it very well: the equipment that players can play in games is a by-product of entertainment, not the income of labor. From David Ricardo to Karl the Great have said that property is the condensation of undifferentiated human labor, so the by-products of entertainment are not protected by law, and transactions are not protected by law.

Even, this matter can also guide other handling: the equipment you typed in the game was stolen by the thief, and the case will not be filed. If you don't receive money for selling equipment, you don't protect it, and if you don't get the equipment after giving money, you don't count it as being scammed. In other words, game equipment is fundamentally characterized as casually black and black, and no matter who suffers or earns, the law does not protect it.

This is something that Boss Bao originally didn't want to see, because it would deal a major blow to the equipment comparison of online games, and cut off the lifeblood of the spread of influence in online games. But this was what Mr. Gu instructed him, and Mr. Gu gave him money and resources to allow him to make online games, the purpose was to crack down on and control the social comparison of the online game industry, because Mr. Gu believed that the comparison of the virtual world was harmful to society and did not conform to his values.

He wants to cut off the roots of any real-world luther in the land of Huaxia to pretend to be a human in the virtual world of online games, and he wants to drag those luthers out from behind the screen and rub them on the ground of reality. So, don't doubt Mr. Gu's insistence on values.

The crowd network has made so much money for him, he can not make a profit as the first purpose, you broke the travel network, did dirty work, how could he still let the company live in the world. I'm telling you this, you should know Mr. Gu's determination. ”
