Chapter 30 Two Major International Venture Capitalists

The next day, at the agreed meeting time, Wu Xiang welcomed SoftBank's Sun Chunsan and Sequoia's Michael Johnson at the same time.

Both of these people can be said to be in charge, and they can make a decision with a word.

No one knows what the three parties talked about in the office of the chairman of the star network company?

However, when Sun Chunsan, Michael Johnson, and Wu Xiang walked out of the office, the three of them all had smiles on their faces.

The reporters who had been waiting outside for a long time after hearing the news appeared, and after the three of them appeared, long guns and short cannons were stretched out one after another, and the flashing lights kept on.

"Mr. Sun, may I ask you that you are very optimistic about Xingwang Company when you appear in Xingwang Company, and you want to invest in Xingwang Company?"

"Mr. Michael, may I ask if Sequoia is determined to win against Starnet? Does appearing at the same time as SoftBank mean that there will be a dragon fight?"

"Mr. Wu, I wonder what kind of impact the arrival of Mr. Sun and Mr. Michael will have on the future decisions and plans of Starnet?"

……

Reporters are asking all kinds of questions one after another, and there is a lot of noise, so that people don't know which one to answer?

"Everyone, everyone, please be quiet. ”

Wu Xiang stretched out his hands, pressed them, and said: "Our Star Network Company will hold a press conference in a while, and your questions will be answered at that time, please wait in the reception hall on the fifth floor with the director of our company's public relations department." ”

"Sure enough, there was big news. ”

The reporters all looked excited, and they were not pestering Wu Xiang, Sun Chunsan, and Michael to ask questions.

After all, the press conference is about to be held, and they still have this bit of a place to wait patiently for an official visit.

"Please. ”

After the reporters left, Wu Xiangcai smiled and led the way to Sun Chunsan and Michael, took the special elevator, and headed to the fifth floor.

With regard to SoftBank's Sun Chunsan and Sequoia's Michael Johnson, two well-known figures in the world, Wu Xiang never dared to think that he would be able to intersect with them, let alone talk eloquently in front of them.

Now, when these two big shots appeared in front of Wu Xiang, Wu Xiang didn't feel much excitement, but just looked at them from the same angle very calmly.

Instead of holding them high, but putting their posture low.

Wu Xiang doesn't necessarily have to ask for SoftBank or Sequoia, although with the help of these two international venture capital companies, he can realize the laying plan of the star network in the country and even the world faster and more steadily, but if the other party can't afford the price, he will definitely not cooperate with the other party.

It's like Ding Shi, the price of the investment in exchange for shares Wu Xiang's psychological price difference is 108,000 miles, so he resolutely refused the other party's shareholding in Xingwang Company.

The most important thing is that Wu Xiang will never sell the shares of Xingwang Company.

He allows the investment of foreign assets, but not in the mothership of Starnet, but in the independent brand subsidiaries established by Starnet.

The spacious reception hall on the fifth floor was almost full, and more reporters who heard the news could only crowd into the aisle.

Wu Xiang and Sun Chunsan, when Michael walked in, the flash flashed non-stop.

Li Dehua, the executive general manager of Xingwang Company, stood in front of the rostrum and said loudly: "Welcome to Mr. Sun Chunsan of Softbank, Mr. Michael of Sequoia, and Mr. Wu Xiang, Chairman of Xingwang Company. ”

Li Dehua took the lead in applauding, and bursts of warm applause were still ringing in front of Wu Xiang, Sun Chunsan, and Michael walking up to the rostrum.

"Welcome to all journalists, welcome Mr. Sun Chunzo of Softbank, Mr. Michael of Sequoia to visit Starnet, today is a good day, because today is an important milestone for Starnet, here, I want to announce two things! Wu Xiang stood on the rostrum, looked around the stage, and was full of spirit.

He was originally just a small owner of an Internet café on the verge of bankruptcy, no house, no car, and even his girlfriend was about to break up, but after more than half a year, he already had another identity, and he was able to stand with the internationally famous venture capital bosses, not humble, not stage frightened, because Wu Xiang had a magical Sims world behind him.

What makes him even more confident is that now he is no longer a novice on the Internet, but a computer master who can write a perfect program with his own powerful computer technology.

"The first thing, under the Star Network Company, will set up a Star Network Server Game Platform Company, and will create an international large-scale data center in Shenhai City. The future of the company is favored by Mr. Sun Chunsan of SoftBank and Mr. Michael Johnson of Sequoia, so Mr. Sun and Mr. Michael will each invest $100 million, a total of $200 million, to obtain 15% of the original equity of the company. ”

In addition to Wu Xiang, Sun Chunsan, and Michael Johnson, including the middle and senior management of Xingwang Company and other employees, they were all shocked by the news.

200 million US dollars only obtained 30% of the original equity of the Star Network Server Game Platform Company under the Star Network Company, and when the Star Network Server Game Platform Company has not been formally established, how optimistic are the two bigwigs of SoftBank Sun Chunsan and Sequoia Michael about the Star Network Company?

Even if it is 200 million US dollars in exchange for 30% of the equity of Starnet, it will be amazing for a long time, but I didn't expect that a Starnet server game platform company that has not yet been established and can even be said to have just launched a concept has such a high value?

It's incredible!

The reporters in the audience were going crazy, but the employees of Xingwang Company were so excited that they wanted to shout and be honored.

Wu Xiang stretched out his hand and pressed it, and when the reception hall was quiet, he smiled slightly and said: "The second thing, the community reality show of Xingwang Company, also in the near future, will officially open the three-dimensional online shopping platform in the community. ”

The audience was immediately in chaos again, and some reporters couldn't help but speak one after another, and all kinds of questions were thrown up.

"So!" Wu Xiang could not hear the reporters' questions one after another, nor did he have the idea of answering, he slapped the microphone on the stage, and the sound he made was noisy, and after it was a little quiet, Wu Xiang continued, "Therefore, Xingwang Company will set up another subsidiary, 'Star Catalyst' Company! Similarly, this subsidiary has also received 100 million US dollars from SoftBank and Sequoia respectively, a total of 200 million US dollars, and 10% of the original equity investment respectively. ”

"May I ask Wu Dong, what kind of company is Star Catalyst, and can you explain the meaning to everyone?" a reporter stood up and asked.

"Star Catalyst Company, is based on the community will open a three-dimensional shopping service platform and the formation of the company, the reason why it is named Star Catalyst, because the Star Network Company will issue a Star Catalyst watch to all users in the community map, using the Star Catalyst watch, you can easily search for information about various shops and commodities in the community map, and even use the Star Catalyst watch, which can be instantly transmitted to the store's dimensional container and fitting room. ”

The so-called dimensional container is a space exactly the same as the store, which is equivalent to copying the store's qiē, and community users do not need to go to the address of the store in the community map, they can use the star catalyst watch to directly enter the dimensional container that they want to enter and the store identical, and directly select the goods in the store, if it is a clothing store, there is also a fitting room service.

In this way, the disadvantage of the three-dimensional shopping platform being inconvenient compared with Taobao and other flat shopping platforms is solved.

Moreover, such a sci-fi star catalyst service platform will only be more sought after by community users.

Wu Xiang simply explained the concept of this star catalyst shopping platform, which aroused the interest of everyone present.

"May I ask Wu Dong, do the two subsidiaries of the Star Network Company that you are about to set up only have the concept of zài, or have they already been realized, or have they been put into practice?"

Wu Xiang smiled and said: " This reporter friend asked, in fact, the star network server platform has been realized, after many tests, has solved some subtle bugs, and can run stably, but due to the current limited capacity of the server, we will temporarily accept no more than ten game companies to host services, and only launch a service that can accommodate 100,000, 300,000, 500,000, 1 million, up to 10 million online players at the same time, and wait for the establishment of the star network company center in Shenhai City, will continue to expand the server platform。 ”

"As for the Star Catalyst shopping platform, although the main program has not yet been written, but to achieve all the uses mentioned in the concept, or even beyond, there is no problem at all, here, I guarantee that this Star Catalyst service will be launched and operated even earlier than the Star Network server platform. ”

After answering some reporters' questions about Star Network Server Game Platform Company and Star Catalyst Company, Sun Chunsan and Michael also accepted interviews.

They have no shortage of praise for the Star Network Company, especially for the server and Star Catalyst that are about to be established under the Star Network Company and they have decided to take a stake.

For a game, a server with only one server, the sci-fi concept of star catalyst three-dimensional shopping is very exciting, and they have said that the future server and star catalyst concept are the mainstream of games and shopping models.

They are sincerely satisfied that they can reach an agreement with Starnet at this moment to take a stake in these two subsidiaries.

They do not think that it is a big loss to invest 200 million US dollars respectively and obtain 15% and 10% of the original equity of the two subsidiaries respectively, but they believe that the market value of these two subsidiaries will increase by 10 times or 100 times in the future.

They still have an eye for this, and they have great confidence in the future of Star Network Company.

In the end, Sun Chunsan and Michael expressed regret that they could not take a stake in the mothership of Star Network Company.
