Su Wang, the last thing I want to see now is you. ”

At the China headquarters of Carlyle Investment Bank, Wang Kaige looked at Su Wang, who walked in, and said half-jokingly.

"Don't welcome me, make me good tea. ”

Su Wang didn't care about Wang Kaige's attitude, took a sip of the tea made by the secretary, and sat down on the chair opposite Wang Kaige.

"Have you ever heard of a sentence? I saw a passage on the Internet a few days ago, saying that if a person owes the bank 350,000 yuan, the bank will come to collect the debt when it is due, and even go to the court to sue you, but if you owe one or two million, the bank will often keep an eye on your financial situation, but if you owe the bank 350 million, the bank will treat you like the god of wealth, burn incense and chant the Buddha every day to bless you not to go bankrupt, and even if you don't, it will help you find a way to finance the turnover. ”

After saying this, Wang Kaige looked at Su Wang, and said helplessly: "I am the bank now, and you are my God of Wealth." ”

"How can it be so exaggerated, but it is indeed the uncle who owes the money. ”

Su Wang smiled, he could understand what Wang Kaige meant, it can be said that Wang Kaige has already tied him to himself, billions of financing, if Meituan does not improve, then Wang Kaige's career is estimated to be over.

"Su Wang, you just give me the bottom, how much money Meituan will burn, and what's going on with your sudden withdrawal from Meituan management?"

As an investor, Wang Kaige is also concerned about the development of Meituan, and also knows that now Meituan's management has changed, Su Wang has withdrawn from the management, and Zhang Xuhao, the founder of Ele.me, has taken over.

"Because I think Zhang Xuhao is more suitable to manage Meituan than me, I believe in his strength, and Meituan will have no problems under his leadership. ”

"Who are you fooling with this, Meituan was created by you, will anyone understand Meituan's development direction and future prospects better than you?" Wang Kaige gave Su Wang a big roll of his eyes, and then continued: "Don't think I don't know, you've been tinkering with that "WeChat" software recently. ”

"You're well-informed, huh?"

"If I don't know about this, then Carlyle Investment Bank can close its doors. ”

As an investment bank specializing in investing in the Internet industry, Wang Kaige's team has a special team to dig out and discover some new Internet companies, and WeChat has been online for more than a month, and has carried out such large-scale publicity, it is impossible for Wang Kaige's team not to know.

At the beginning, Wang Kaige thought that a new Internet company had appeared, and wanted to challenge Tencent's instant messaging supremacy, and he also felt that this new company was a little unaware of the sky.

But when the person below put the information of the company behind "WeChat" in front of him, after reading the information, he had an urge to get rid of the dog.

This company turned out to be made by Su Wang.

Wang Kaige felt that he didn't know how to say Su Wang, here Meituan is engaged in a fierce and cruel money-burning war, and he has not yet decided the winner, Su Wang still has the leisure to engage in other products, he is really confident or big-hearted.

When he first knew, he had an urge to question Su Wang in person, but after calming down, he carefully analyzed the situation and found that Su Wang was really good at picking time.

At the same time, this analysis also made Wang Kaige sure that for this "WeChat" software, it was definitely not temporarily pushed out by Su Wang, because a software from development to launch, at least it takes two or three months to launch, and it can be launched so exactly at the time of the 360 and Tencent war, which can only show one point, that is, Su Wang has been preparing this software for a long time, and he took advantage of this opportunity to launch it.

"Su Wang, you tell me the truth, among your projects, is the most important thing to be the "WeChat" project?"

"Brother Wang, you have wronged me, Meituan was also created by me, and it is my child like WeChat, and I value it the same. ”

Su Wang shook his head, in his heart, Meituan and WeChat are indeed as important, the difference is that Meituan is a life product, while WeChat is a social product, the former may have similar products, but once the latter is successful, it will maintain a monopoly position.

So from this point of view, WeChat is still more important.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's talk, what are you looking for me?"

"I'm looking for you as a God of Wealth, what can I do, naturally Meituan needs to continue financing. ”

"Still need financing? Isn't Meituan having money on its account?"

As the leader, Wang Kaige naturally understands Meituan's financial situation, and knows that Meituan still has hundreds of millions of cash in its account.

"Take precautions, according to our estimates, this amount of money is not enough to win in this war, it must need financing, and the capital chain will be broken, and this financing thing must at least be prepared in advance, my suggestion is to get the next financing within three months." ”

"How much are you going to raise next time, and how many shares are you going to give away?"

"Not less than five billion, give up 20% of the shares. ”

Because Wang Kaige is now his own person, Su Wang does not hide that he is ready to raise more than 5 billion yuan in the next round of financing, and give up 30% of the shares, according to the scarcity of shares of both parties, his shares in Meituan will be less than 50%.

However, there is no way to do this, except for a few family businesses that can have more than half of the shares, most companies, especially Internet companies, in the end, the founder's shares are very low, take Wang Xing in his previous life, his shares in Meituan are only 11% in the end.

"Five billion, 20% of the shares, this is equivalent to a fivefold increase, it may be a little difficult. ”

It has not been a few months since the last round of financing, and the market value has increased by five times in an instant, even Wang Kaige feels that it is a little tricky, and it is estimated that the capital market may not accept it.

"Don't forget that we have now acquired Ele.me, and with Ele.me's food delivery market, it will be of great help to the development of the entire Meituan, and our current revenue is also six times that of the original, and the market value will naturally double. ”

"That's right, but the domestic capital situation is a bit complicated, and those who are willing to invest in the Internet are almost us, because of Dianping, Tencent will definitely not join the financing, and Ali is the same. ”

Wang Kaige pondered for a moment, looked at Su Wang, and asked, "Do you mind foreign investment?"

"Foreign capital?"

"That's right, if you don't mind foreign capital, I am sure to talk about 5 billion, 20% of the shares, and the problem is not very big. ”

"It's better to be domestic, you know, our domestic public opinion is different. ”

Su Wang is also a little hesitant, the most famous introduction of foreign capital is Ali, or the introduction of SoftBank investment, at the beginning, many competitors did not use this to attack Ali, saying that Ali is making money for the Japanese, many netizens really believe it, and join the queue to boycott Ali.

Once Meituan accepts foreign financing, he can imagine that Dianping and Koubei will definitely use this as an excuse to attack Meituan, and many unknown users will really believe it.

In fact, for a company, how can it hope to go abroad for financing, only in the case of domestic financing will choose to go abroad, of course, in order to seek international development is another matter.

"Actually, I personally think that it is not a bad thing to accept some foreign capital, especially the capital on Wall Street, because it will be helpful for the company to go public in the future. ”

Wang Kaige seriously suggested to Su Wang that if Meituan was going to be listed on the NASDAQ, it would be good for the company's packaging and stock value if there was capital to join in.

Because most of the financing parties are for the company to go public and then cash out, there is capital from Wall Street coming in, they will take the initiative to package the company's listing and arrange various media to advocate it.

"Brother Wang, I'm not saying no about foreign capital, but it's best not to exceed 20%, so that this amount will not be disgusted by domestic users. ”

"Okay, I see. ”

Wang Kaige understands what Su Wang means, 20%, this proportion is about the same.

"Let's talk about the perfect group, now let's talk about your "WeChat" company, what, doesn't this company need financing?"

"Not for the time being. ”

Su Wang shook his head, for WeChat, he will strictly control the funds, at least before the money in his own account is burned, he will not consider financing, even if he really wants financing, in addition to money, it must also be able to help the company.

For example, Happy Network and Fan No Network, Su Wang once talked with Chen Binghao and Wang Xing, these two companies can join in with financing if they are interested, but the premise is to open up the user data sharing of Happy Network and Fan No Network.

"It seems that you are full of hope for WeChat, and you are preparing to vote for yourself in the first two rounds. ”

Wang Kaige knew that Su Wang said that he would not raise money, and he did not plan to raise funds in the early stage, but to prepare WeChat to refinance after reaching a certain scale.

"It's pretty much the same, but I think I have money now, and I don't need to raise money. ”

"You can invest your own money, by the way, I remember that when you were abroad, you seemed to invest in a company, how is the development of this company?"

At the beginning of the happy online market, Wang Kaige and Su Wang both went abroad, and Wang Kaige saw Su Wang's eyes invest a million US dollars without blinking, and now a few months have passed, I don't know how the company has developed.

"The product was launched just last week, and the user response has been very good. ”

Su Wang replied with a smile, in fact, the response is not bad, according to the data fed back by Kevin, ins has already had 300,000 users a week after it was launched, and this data can be said to be against the sky.

You must know that in the previous life, there were not many engineers at the beginning because of financial reasons, only the Apple version, but this time there was Su Wang's capital injection, the number of employees in ins was more, and the Android version was also developed, and the number of users naturally increased.
