Chapter 601: Cantonese is not understood
Early the next morning, Lin Qiang first took Zhao Lianbao to Yongtai's most famous Xinji Restaurant to taste Cantonese morning tea, and then went to the Guangzhou branch of a nearby real estate company.
Lin Qiang chatted with Zhao Lianbao quite speculatively last night, the two were still alumni, and they didn't shy away from suspicion at the moment, and said to Cao Xu in front of him: "Actually, I didn't have any expectations for this VC appointment, and I never thought about financing from the beginning, but after meeting and talking with the other party, I found that I was a little taken for granted." Those VC people are all elites in the industry, and the first exchange gave me a lot of inspiration. This Manager Zhao turned out to be an alumnus of my university, which can be regarded as a kind of fate. By the way, Brother Cao and Sister Wen, do you still remember Sun Dan?"
"Sister Hua's Dongling company has been dissolved for more than half a year, Sun Dan joined Everbright Venture Capital at the end of last year as the investment director, and I only learned yesterday that she was specifically responsible for investing in Internet start-ups. Lin Qiang smiled at Zhao Lianbao as he spoke, and said, "Manager Zhao, I forgot to tell you, your Director Sun is also our alumnus, one year lower than me, and this time she personally asked me to meet with you." ”
Lin Qiang smiled and said: "I inadvertently mentioned our website project to your Director Sun yesterday, originally thinking that she should have an understanding of other Internet companies, and wanted to consult her about the next development direction of our website, but I didn't expect that she was specifically responsible for this investment. ”
After talking last night, Zhao Lianbao had a deeper understanding of this senior brother who graduated ten years earlier than himself, not only learned that he controlled a number of enterprises in his hands, but also learned that he had prepared hundreds of millions of funds from the beginning to operate the project of Chaopai Decoration Network. Zhao Lianbao is clearly aware that Lin Qiang is completely different from the average start-up founder, other founders only have ideas in their hands, but no funds, so they can't wait to attack everywhere, take the initiative to find investors, and urgently need to raise the first fund, no wonder Lin Qiang was so calm and calm when he met with their team yesterday, for him, there is really no shortage of funds for the time being, and he also made it clear to Xu Chengfu yesterday that now he is just himself alone to fund the operation of this project, if he needs funds, he can go to financing with other partners at any time, and venture capital is really not very attractive to him。
After listening to Lin Qiang's personal introduction to the establishment process of the fashion brand decoration network and the positioning of the website, as well as data analysis and future promotion plans last night, Zhao Lianbao felt that this was the most potential project he had received, and he was very glad that he was left by Xu Chengfu to continue to contact Lin Qiang and them. This is really a great opportunity for him!
Lin Qiang came to the branch of the real estate company this time to listen to Chen Ran's report on the preparations in the capital of Yale in person.
"Brother Qiang, during this time, because the surrounding area of the property needs to be re-created advertising, I have contacted their financial director several times with the advertising cost budget plan. You may not know it, but it turns out that their Director Li is still a very beautiful woman. Chen Ran said.
Chen Ran hurriedly said: "The reason why I especially mentioned this Director Li to Brother Qiang is because she has asked Brother Qiang several times that you are here, which seems to be very casual, but why do I always feel that she is intentional?"
Lin Qiang glared at her and said, "I haven't met the other party, how can I be remembered." ”
"You didn't chew your tongue in front of others, did you?" Lin Qiang said.
Lin Qiang didn't take this kind of thing to heart, just regarded it as a joke made by Chen Ran.
Lin Qiang smiled and shook his head: "How can you decide so quickly?" But I think their operation method is very useful, simple and rude but can quickly produce results, and the power of capital is still very huge. ”
"Sister Wen Jie, you are studying finance, with your opinion, what should I do next?"
Cao Xu also said: "In fact, you can also see the opportunity, through financing to quietly withdraw your early investment, you can still hold most of the company's equity in your hands, even if you carry out the next few rounds of financing, the equity in your hands will continue to be diluted, but the company's valuation will be pushed up, as long as you want, you can get a huge return by casually selling part of the equity, why not?"
"Of course, if it were me, I would have been excited. If you think about it, even if you can raise $20 or 30 million in the first round, the equity you promised them is worth $5 million, and I remember that your entrepreneurial team is only about five or six people, which means that each person can share millions of dollars, can you not be excited?" Cao Xu said with a smile.
Cao Xu pointed at him and smiled: "I knew that this guy of yours would never do anything really risky. Oh, Chen Ran, do you want to understand, no wonder when Mr. Qian invited us to the banquet that day, he said that he was going to learn about the office buildings in Zhujiang New Town, it turned out to be premeditated, and it seems that his dream will soon come true. At that time, Chen Ran and I will be able to sigh for coffee often. ”
"I said, Chen Ran, you and Xiao Zhang want to help me testify, there is a credit for me, will you arrange an office for me at that time, even if it is close to the bathroom." Cao Xu said.
Zhao Lianbao couldn't understand Cantonese and didn't know what Lin Qiang was talking about, so he could only smile with everyone with a little embarrassment.
