"John, now that you're a new billionaire and famous in the United States, why don't you come to Silicon Valley anymore, are you afraid that we'll ask you for a treat?" Don Valentine joked with a smile as everyone sat down.

"Hey, Mr. Valentine, didn't you also buy some shares in Netscape at that time, why haven't you made a sale yet?

And I'm borrowing money from you, or you're safe, don't worry about it at all, don't worry about this and that all day long.

In just half a year, the 50 million borrowed at the beginning has become 60 million, is there a more profitable business than this?" Li Feng responded with a smile.

"Haha..."Hearing Li Feng's teasing response, there was laughter in the conference room.

"Yes, I was still talking at the time, why did this kid John give the money to Don, you know, we are also friends, why didn't this kid John come to me.

Anyway, my name is John, isn't it, no, it cheapened Don for nothing and made him a lot of money. "No," KPCB's John Doerr also teased.

"Wow, haha..."Hearing John Doerr's teasing, the conference room burst into laughter again, as if the previous heated argument had not happened.

......

"You guys, you've all been deceived by this kid, before he mortgaged Yahoo shares, I'm still wondering why he suddenly repaid my money, it turns out that this round of Yahoo investment, he wants to talk about it again. ”

When Don Valentine saw Li Feng come to Yahoo in person, he knew what Li Feng meant. I have to say that these people are still human spirits, no, as soon as Li Feng said it, everyone else also reacted.

If the shares are still mortgaged in Sequoia, then Li Feng's share power will be held by Sequoia, and now Li Feng has repaid the funds before and got back the shares of Yahoo, obviously, he has his own ideas for this round of financing.

"Hehe, we're all for Yahoo's good, aren't we, let's talk about it, let's talk about the latest developments. Li Feng said with a smile.

"John, in fact, the basic point of view is the same, that is, there is still a bit of disagreement on the valuation, we insist on 2 billion, and their current offer is as high as 1.6 billion, and they are still talking. Yang Zhiyuan said with a smile, in fact, Li Feng already knew about these before.

"In other words, 20% of the shares, raising 400 million US dollars, right?" Li Feng said to everyone with a smile.

"That's true. ”

"Well, I'm willing to admit the valuation of your management, and if they don't want to, I can invest. Li Feng said with a smile at everyone.

......

"John, you can't eat alone. "Well, after hearing Li Feng's words, everyone was anxious, and some people directly said that Li Feng couldn't eat alone.

"Haha... In fact, you all know that Yahoo is still very good, and I have also talked to Yahoo Yang Zhiyuan and the management, they are ready to go public in the first half of next year, and I believe that Yahoo can give us a good return. ”

"Well, since it's all like this, let's shed it if you want to. Don Valentine interjected at this point.

Well, then whether it's Sequoia or KPCB, IDG, Hatch Capital, SoftBank, AOL, etc., all stayed.

In addition to meeting some old friends before, Li Feng also met new capital forces - Hearst Capital and SoftBank, which are also acquaintances, and at the same time Li Feng also saw a new investor - SoftBank.

"John, I've never seen an investor like you. John Doerr also quipped at this time.

Now that they all agreed, everyone laughed.

......

"Haha, everyone, in addition to being an investor, I am barely one of the founders of Yahoo, and I get along very well with Yang Zhiyuan and David, and I am a very good friend. ”

"Well, Yahoo has paid you great value, right? ”

"That's true, without Yahoo, I wouldn't be where I am now, and I always have to know how to be grateful, right? Li Feng said with a smile.

Hearing Li Feng's words, everyone smiled and nodded, everyone likes to be able to make friends with people who know how to be grateful.

Seeing that everyone reached an agreement with a smile, Li Feng thought to himself, if he didn't know the future development of Yahoo, Lao Tzu would not have come.

Well, if everyone knew what he was thinking, it was estimated that they would all take back everyone's praise, and they wouldn't be able to change Li Feng's villainous behavior.

Next, it's time to discuss the issue of shares.

......

Considering his own situation, Li Feng invested another 50 million yuan and acquired a 2.5% stake in the new Yahoo. As for others, Li Feng is too lazy to care, let them argue.

At the same time, half of the shares in this financing have no voting rights on the board of directors, which is negotiated by everyone.

Li Feng's previous 17.5% stake was diluted to 14%, and in the end, Li Feng still had 16.5% of the stake left in Yahoo, thinking that he would just wait for the listing next.

Yes, after Li Feng discussed with Zack, he counted the shares of the two together and put them all into the investment company, and Zach also obtained 1% of the shares of the investment company. In this regard, Zach also agreed, saying that it was all given by you, and it was okay to go together.

At the same time, the 50 million has emptied all the funds on the books of the investment company. After completing all the formalities and signing the contract, everyone naturally celebrated.

Although he was still fighting for red faces before, but when it was decided, they were all talking and laughing again, and Li Feng could only feel that life was really like a play, and a play was like life.

With Yahoo's financing negotiations officially reached, the news of Yahoo's valuation and successful financing naturally began to circulate to the outside world, and both industry practitioners and the media were amazed.

With a valuation of 2 billion, how many companies have been doing it for a lifetime, and the market value is less than 2 billion, and Yahoo has only 2 rounds of financing, and the valuation is 2 billion.

Naturally, a new round of Internet craze has been stirred up again.

......

Naturally, there are admirers and blacks, and this world is like this, especially under the news that Li Feng took the lead in admitting Yahoo's valuation of 2 billion, Li Feng naturally received a lot of attention, but it was inevitable that he would be suspected of being "trusted", although Li Feng didn't care.

"2 billion, this is Yahoo!" was the Wall Street Journal's front-page headline the next day.

The daily newspaper believes that Yahoo's valuation of 2 billion is an investment worth investing in, and the current market value of Netscape is far more than 2 billion, and the daily newspaper clearly stated that Yahoo should go far beyond Netscape, believing that Yahoo represents the Internet.

Thus began a comprehensive introduction to Yahoo's situation, from the very beginning to Li Feng's first angel investment, to development and the first venture capital, the next development of Yahoo around the world, and the latest second round of financing.

For the first time, people had a comprehensive understanding of Yahoo, and at the same time, they were surprised that Yahoo quietly completed the layout of the English-speaking area and Europe.

At the same time, he praised Yahoo's next goal of deploying the world, and believed that Yahoo's management is a wise leader, which will make Yahoo the representative and banner of the Internet.

In the next few days, newspapers across the United States began to track Yahoo's news, from the founder to the management to various venture capital institutions, etc., all became the target of many media pursuits.

......

Naturally, among the crowd, Yang Zhiyuan, David Ferro and Li Feng are naturally the focus of attention, especially Li Feng has once again become the focus of attention of the national media.

After all, it was just a matter of attention not long ago, and with the financing of Yahoo, Li Feng has once again become the focus, and many media even call Li Feng the focus of the news, and he can become the focus of everyone anywhere.

Especially with the Wall Street Journal's attention to Li Feng again, which led to the exposure of Li Feng's previous investment in Microsoft and Cisco, naturally, Yahoo's shares and a number of new companies, the Wall Street Journal launched a page a few days later.

The title of "the youngest billion-dollar wealth creator" was crowned on Li Feng's head, making Li Feng, a 15-year-old boy, once again attract widespread attention in the United States.

Attention to wealth is always the most eye-catching, and this time is no different.
