012 Sequoia Capital & Michael Moretz (Favorite, Recommended)

After chatting with Yang Zhiyuan and them a little, seeing the busy people in the entire garage, Li Feng and Zack couldn't watch the excitement over there anymore.

At the same time, they don't understand technology about the Internet, so they can only watch dryly, so the two returned to the "Silicon Valley Garden Hotel" on the edge of Stanford.

I opened a large suite, with two small rooms, a small living room, a bathroom, and a small balcony for $350 a night. Fortunately, Alan Francis contributed $200,000, otherwise, the lives of the two would be a little tense.

After the two arrived at the room, they relaxed, washed up in a hurry, and sat on the small balcony in a bathrobe to eat snacks and fruits and chat.

"Ding Dong..."

But it was the doorbell that rang, interrupting Li Feng's lazy and leisure time.

......

"Who is here at this time?" Li Feng watched Zach get up and walk towards the door after talking to himself, and then a staccato conversation sounded.

"Hello, may I ask who you are?"

"Hello, my name is Michael Moretz. ”

"Okay, Michael?

"I'm looking for Mr. St. John Lee and Mr. Zach John, are you Zach John?. ”

"Oh yes, if there wasn't any other guy named Zach here, I guess I would, man, what's the matter with you?. ”

"Look, this isn't the place to talk, how about going in and talking?"

"OK, come in. ”

Immediately, Li Feng saw Zach walk into the room with a middle-aged white man.

......

"Zach, who is it?"

"Jhon, who identified himself as Mr. Michael Moretz, said he had come to see the two of us. Zach shrugged at Li Feng and said casually.

"Michael Moretz?" Li Feng felt that he had heard of self-love, but he didn't care.

"Yes, two gentlemen, my name is Michael Moretz, and I am from Sequoia Capital. At this time, Michael Moretz was also a little speechless, you must know that I am Michael Moretz, one of the helmsmen of Sequoia Capital.

It's a pity that I met Zach and Li Feng, two people who don't know much about the venture capital market.

Zack doesn't know at all, and although Li Feng is from the next generation, he is an ordinary person after all, Sequoia Capital may have heard of it, as for Michael Moretz, he can only ask, who is it, and it can only be "hehe".

"Sequoia Capital?" Li Feng also reacted at this time, and then asked.

"Yes, I'm Michael Moretz from Sequoia Capital. ”

When he heard Michael Moretz's affirmative reply, Li Feng immediately stood up, held his hand, and said that he would be lucky, and looked at Michael Moretz with bright eyes, just like looking at US dollars.

......

No way, this is Sequoia Capital, in Li Feng's view, Sequoia Capital is simply a symbol of the "God of Wealth".

In other words, in the future of China, if ordinary people heard about venture capital companies, it was still in the era of the Internet, the end of the 90s.

At that time, ordinary people had only heard about venture capital companies, and it was probably not until the beginning of the new century that ordinary people wanted to understand venture capital companies.

Li Feng, who was an ordinary person in his previous life, was the same in the late 90s, when he heard about venture capital companies, he just simply understood that investing in start-up companies would get rich returns in the future.

It wasn't until later that more and more domestic companies obtained venture capital, and the concept of venture capital was deeply rooted in the hearts of entrepreneurs.

When it comes to the venture capital industry, we have to mention the Dune Road in Monroe Park in Silicon Valley, and we have to mention a big player in the venture capital industry - Sequoia Capital.

......

In Silicon Valley's Monroe Park, the not spacious sand dune road, there are many wooden 2 and 3-story buildings from the 2nd and 3rd decades of the United States in the quiet and serene, if you don't know it, it is like a quiet and peaceful life.

And it is precisely in contrast to this quiet life that there are hundreds of venture capital companies on this short dune road, and these venture capital companies control hundreds of billions of dollars in assets, which is why it is called "Wall Street on the West Coast of the United States".

It is also on this miracle road paved with venture capital companies, Sequoia Capital is also among them, and it is known as its "legend in miracles".

Sequoia Capital is known as the most powerful venture capitalist in Silicon Valley, and many venture capitalists call themselves its protΓ©gΓ©s.

......

Since its inception in the 70s, Sequoia Capital has embarked on its legendary journey in the venture capital world.

Later generations have always used this to describe Sequoia Capital's performance in the venture capital market: in the 70s mainframe era, it discovered the PC pioneer Apple, thus opening the era of personal PCs;

In the 80s, when PCs were rampant, it once again discovered network equipment companies 3com and Cisco, laying a solid foundation for the Internet era;

In the 90s, when computers were widely used, it discovered Yahoo and Google, which started the Internet wave, and was also one of the promoters of the Internet bubble.

Sequoia Capital is often described in a sentence by the outside world: it has invested in more than 500 companies, more than 130 companies have been listed, more than 100 projects have been merged and acquired and successfully exited, and the total market value of listed companies has exceeded one-tenth of the market value of the NASDAQ.

It is conceivable what Sequoia Capital means, in Li Feng's view, is really the mobile God of Wealth.

Of course, because of the emergence of Li Feng, at least on Yahoo, Sequoia Capital has become less magical. As for Google and whether it will still be so godly in the future, only God knows.

......

It's a pity that Li Feng doesn't know Michael Moretz's influence in later generations, otherwise he would probably have a little star in his eyes, this is the real god of the venture capital industry.

Michael Moretz, later known as one of the "Four Kings of Venture Capital", has been talked about for investing in Yahoo and Google.

Of course, because of Li Feng's existence, these may be greatly discounted in the future.

Maybe the "Four Heavenly Kings of the Venture Capital Industry" will become the "Five Heavenly Kings" in the future, and who knows what kind of storm Li Feng's butterfly will roll up.

There is no doubt that for Yahoo and Li Feng now, Sequoia Capital is definitely a behemoth.

Thinking of this, Li Feng couldn't help but feel a little excited, and then said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Michael, I have been famous for the famous Sequoia Capital for a long time. ”

"Oh yes, that's my pleasure. Looking at Li Feng's praise of Sequoia Capital, Michael Moretz also had an expression of pride.

......

In fact, at this time, Michael Moretz has just emerged in the venture capital world, but he is not the man who is known as the "Four Kings of the Venture Capital Industry" in later generations.

Michael Moretz's famous work is actually investing in Yahoo and Google.

In his previous life, at the beginning of 95, Michael Moretz invested $1 million in Yahoo on behalf of Sequoia Capital and obtained 25% of Yahoo's shares, creating billions of dollars in value in later generations, creating thousands of times more profits, and making Michael Moretz famous.

Needless to say, Google later made it completely secure the reputation of "the four kings of the venture capital industry" in the venture capital industry, after all, the real achievements are there.

Michael Moretz is backed by Sequoia Capital, although he is known as one of the four kings of the venture capital industry, but Michael is the most famous, and many people in later generations may call him "the first person in the venture capital industry".
