After the speech, Lehman lowered his demands, but still demanded a 20 percent stake. This time, Yuwei and the others stuck to their bottom line, preferring to negotiate a collapse and resolutely not transfer more than 10% of the shares.

More and more interview requirements made Zhou Shi annoyed, so the company set up a spokesperson system, temporarily let the marketing department of the person concurrently.

Others are easy to refuse, but the interview request of Mango Terrace, the hometown of Hunan Province, is really difficult to refuse. This time, Mango Station canceled the SMS voting, cooperated with Time Friends, and adopted the real-name system to like the contestants. At the same time, big data analysis is carried out to provide statistics on various factors such as the area and age of fans. The price paid by Time Friends is very small, and the reason is very simple: some people reported to the above that the most successful part of this show is to vote for stars by SMS voting. To a certain extent, it has created a precedent for China's Western participatory masters, and it is a large-scale sand table rehearsal for China's Western-style masters. This model, when popularized, will revolutionize our society.

SMS voting = Ming Lord, as soon as this kind of interpretation of the remarks on the platform came out, Mango Station could only kneel. As for the reason, you know! Coupled with the inextricable relationship between Starlight Culture and Mango Channel, Time Friends naturally obtained the right to cooperate with Mango Channel. Of course, the necessary compensation must be indispensable, but these details are not something that Zhou Shi pays attention to.

Zhou Shi has always disliked interviews, mainly because he has too many secrets in his heart, and under the host's skillful skills, Zhou Shi does not dare to guarantee that he will not leak secrets. The reporter of Mango TV is okay, he didn't ask excessive topics, and it was basically a cliché. The only thing that caught Zhou Shi's attention was

"Your hometown helped you a lot when you were growing up, and now that you have achieved so much, should you repay him?"

Zhou Shi suddenly felt full of malice from this sentence, is this a problem with this guy's level, and he really wants to embarrass Zhou Shi?

"What do you think I should have in return?" Zhou Shi asked rhetorically, buying time for himself

"You should at least invest in your hometown to help your hometown get rid of poverty and become rich," the reporter said

"Do you mean that I should recruit people from big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen to work in the fourth-tier cities?

"You can recruit people in Hunan Province," the reporter said

"I want to participate in global competition, and I will definitely recruit people in Hunan Province, but whether these talents are willing to stay and work in Hunan Province is a big question, do you think this is really appropriate?"

"Don't you go back to your hometown if you have difficulties?"

Zhou Shi was also angry at this brain-dead, grass, we are not fellow countrymen. Do you still want to mix in Mango Terrace?

"Do you think I didn't give back to my hometown because my business was worthless? You have to know that the mission of Time Friends Network is to build deeper connections between people, and this process is the process by which we will change the world and give back to the world! How much do you think I should give back?"

"......" The reporter wanted to ask something, but was finally stopped. It's too difficult to become a great and righteous character, Zhou Shi has just emerged, and before he has time to become bad, some people are full of doubts about him. Just like the friend network, after the passion of the speech dissipates, the company also has a different voice. However, if you don't agree with the corporate culture of time friends, you must not stay, Zhou Shi's small book has recorded the names of several people, just waiting to free up your hands and kick people.

This reporter who said cool things was embarrassed Zhou Shi didn't know what the purpose was, but he did remind Zhou Shi that if possible, he would still benefit Xiangzi as much as possible.

At the end of the interview, Zhou Shi called Long Danni: "Sister Shanni, can you help me ask if Mango Station has an opinion on me?"

"What's the matter, aren't we working well with Mango Terrace?"

"But when they interviewed me today, they wanted to embarrass me. "Zhou Shi

"It can't be, what's going on. "Long Danni

"They almost said that I am rich and unkind today, do you say that Mango Station is the only choice for our company?" Zhou Shi hung up the phone, too lazy to say anything more, regardless of whether he misunderstood this reporter or not, anyway, he felt uncomfortable today, and more and more questions made him very unhappy. He's not Jabbs, and there's nothing else to brag about except PPT.

Fortunately, after a few days of entanglement, the financing negotiation agreement was finally reached. A total of 50 million US dollars will be invested, of which Lehman will contribute 25 million yuan, and Sequoia and KPCB will each contribute 15 million yuan. It accounts for 9.1% of the shares.

In an instant, all the bull ghosts, snakes, and gods who questioned Zhou Shi disappeared in an instant. Money does not deceive people, and the money of US imperialism does not deceive people. At the simple celebration banquet, Zhou Shi took the initiative to toast them: "I think after this time, everyone should have confidence, and we can become the rule-makers." As long as there is enough interest, this group of vultures on Wall Street is willing to break any of their unspoken rules"

Thinking about the difficulties of this financing, even if it is rumored in the American market that Yahoo is going to buy Facebook for $1 billion, and the two sides are negotiating, Lehman is still going all out, wanting to fight for the last trace of benefits from his friends of time, and Zhou Shi has a hard time feeling this kind of vulture.

Within half a year, the two largest social networking sites in the East and West were both valued at more than $500 million, which seems to be saying that the next hot spot of the Internet is real-name social networking. All of a sudden, real-name social networking sites such as Intranet, Renren, and Kaixin.com were established in the mainland, and they began to compete with Time Friends for this highly imaginative cyberspace. However, the first to be injured was the Shenzhen market's Tengxun, whose stock price fell by 8 percent. Zhou Shi also laughed when he saw this situation: "This is really that I don't kill Beren, and Beren died because of me." Goose factory, I'm really sorry!"

With the funds, the next step is to improve the employee stock ownership plan. Zhou Shi doesn't have many opinions on such a professional matter, but it is the most basic requirement to calculate it according to the contribution. The different coefficients and calculation methods of technical staff and managers also need to be coordinated by the entire senior management. However, Lei Jun, as a consultant of Time, also participated in the equity design plan this time, and his rich experience provided a good reference for Yuwei and them.

After the agreement was reached, Sequoia's Shen Nanpeng took the initiative to invite Zhou Shi. For this guy who caused him a certain amount of trouble in the early stage, Zhou Shi originally wanted to have a good fight with him, so that he could know why Ma Wangye had three eyes, but one thing after another, so that he didn't have time and energy to entangle these things. This time, agreeing to Sequoia's participation in the financing is just the person they gave is really what Zhou Shi urgently needs. Unexpectedly, this time, in order to achieve this financing, he made a lot of efforts in Lehman and coordinated various contradictions between the two sides. In fact, when the final cooperation was reached, Shen Nanpeng's role was not much smaller than that of Youwei. It's a pity, it's a pity, should it be reconciled?
