Li Yanhong has an impression of Chen Chuliang, when they met in Xiangshan Park, the other party's conversation had a foreign study background, and the two were still sympathetic to each other at that time, so his voice was not very unfamiliar.

After the call, Li Yanhong remembered who the other party was and what he looked like.

But he was still surprised.

Li Yanhong didn't expect that the person who sent him many emails of financing intentions to his mailbox was actually the young man about 20 years old.

At this moment, Li Yanhong had a feeling that it was difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

The other party is young, and he can casually take out more than 10 million yuan to invest in the Internet, and he did not hesitate to give up his high salary abroad for the sake of his ideals, and returned to China to start a business.

There is contrast, there is harm, Li Yanhong also realized that capital, background, indispensable, it is too difficult to work hard from scratch, Baidu's future must develop in the direction of profitability, everything is just to look at the money, as for other details, Baidu has to cut them all if it wants to survive.

Even, based on this, a thought flashed through Li Yanhong's head.

Baidu's profit model has not been clear, but at this moment, Li Yanhong thought of a word "bidding ranking", through high-price competition, to search engine customers, to promote affordable advertiser information at the top.

Although it is very damaged, compared to survival, it is not possible to be ruthless.

Li Yanhong determined Baidu's development model in the future, and after the second financing, Baidu had money to operate, and began to do it. On the phone, he asked, "Hello, Mr. Chen, we meet again." I don't know, when you can come to Yanjing, we can sit down and talk in detail. ”

Li Yanhong has regarded the other party as a business partner, and he has spoken straight to the point, Baidu's financing is imminent, which is related to Baidu's survival, otherwise Li Yanhong would not be in such a hurry to contact the other party.

Chen Chuliang and Sun Kaixuan had just gotten off Yanjing's plane.

After receiving Li Yanhong's call, Chen Chuliang was not surprised at all.

Because, Chen Chuliang knows that his offer must be the most sincere among the companies that are now negotiating financing with Baidu, and Li Yanhong will definitely accept it.

The condition he gave for 13 million financing of 20% of Baidu's shares was not to send more money to Li Yanhong, but to have several additional conditions. This will have to wait until the negotiation with Li Yanhong to say it.

"Mr. Li, I probably, I have time this weekend, and I will contact you when the time comes. Seeing in the distance, the car that picked up the airport drove over, it was a black Volkswagen, Chen Chuliang beckoned, and made an appointment with Li Yanhong to meet at a time.

Li Yanhong said: "Okay, Mr. Chen, you can make an appointment on the weekend, and we will meet at Zhongguancun Baidu Company." ”

From Li Yanhong's tone, Chen Chuliang heard that Baidu's recent capital chain was estimated to be unbearable, and his willingness to raise funds was very urgent, so he simply said directly, "At nine o'clock in the morning on the weekend, I will contact you by phone when the time comes." ”

Li Yanhong said no problem.

….

When Li Yanhong called Chen Chuliang, he had actually just come out of Yanjing Airport with Sun Kaixuan.

The two got into an old Volkswagen Santana and drove in the direction of Zhongguancun.

The person driving the car was Kang Donghai.

After Kang Donghai joined Aiya Technology, it happened that Chen Chuliang needed to set up a new company, operate "Tieba" products, and prepare people to come to Yanjing to develop territory.

Familiar with Yanjing, "Zhongli Technology Company" was established very smoothly, and even its products were posted after the launch, and the entire company team responsible for research and development was full of enthusiasm.

Because, some of the build engineers of "Tieba" come from employees who jump ship.

Whoosh Fox is a portal news boss, and likewise, it also operates a community model.

However, the community of the whoosh fox, although it is also very good, but compared with the post bar, it seems to be less imaginative.

Freshness and vitality are the selling points of the Internet.

The members of the Whoosh Fox team brought by Kang Donghai and the Hanzhou technicians brought by Tan Qunzhao are fused together, and a brand-new Internet company is opening up towards the future of hope.

This is Zhongguancun, this is the land of hope, and more importantly, under the entire Internet bubble economy, the company's capital chain has not been broken, and the recent launch of new products one after another is all epoch-making things.

The prospect is the dawn that every employee of the company hopes to see the most, and Kang Donghai is no exception.

So much so that he jumped ship and went to a company that had just been established, and was ridiculed by many people, but Kang Donghai replied to the other party in his heart, at most two years, these ridicules will become a sharp blade for him to fight back.

Kang Donghai acted as a driver and received the boss and a man in his thirties, tall and tall, who was born in the army at first glance.

The person who can sit side by side with the boss is not simple, he must be a person who the boss can trust, so he is not guarded, and while driving the car, he said:

"Mr. Chen, Baidu's situation, we understand that Li Yanhong originally planned to continue to throw the olive branch to the venture capital companies on Wall Street, but the IP and CP companies that have cooperated with Baidu are not very interested in Baidu's financing, and they are willing to pay less money, but the DFJ company introduced by the two companies attaches great importance to Baidu's prospects in the Chinese market, and the financing intention is very strong, but due to the current world Internet bubble economy, DFJ company has a financing amount of 10 million US dollars, but it is close to 20 to dilute Baidu% of the shares. A little lion opened his mouth, financing negotiations, until now the negotiations have not been successful, we stepped in, it seems that DFJ company is going back to the United States home. ”

"What's more, Baidu's recent resignation wave is a bit serious, which is probably related to Baidu's financing. ”

Listening to Kang Donghai's report, the other party is also a senior negotiator, who has participated in many acquisitions and financing cases of Whoosh, and should have collected a lot of information, so he asked: "How long can Baidu's capital chain be supported?"

Kang Donghai said: "According to the analysis of industry insiders, it can support at most one month. ”

Chen Chuliang understood.

No wonder Lao Li's financing intention is so strong. I also heard Kang Donghai mention that Baidu's resignation tide is very serious, it should be the disheartened people brought by financing, the Internet bubble era, the survival of many companies is not optimistic, some people as long as they make money, there is no greater ambition, they want to sell their shares and choose other stable industries.

Kang Donghai continued: "Mr. Chen, after Zhongli Technology Co., Ltd. launched the Tieba product, it has been developed in accordance with the requirements of the head office, and the online music audition product has been developed. ”

For the music audition products developed by "Zhongli Technology Company", Chen Chuliang has always paid a lot of attention, Kang Donghai asked him to make suggestions, he said: "Simple, easy to use, the key is free! After the online music audition was developed, our company signed a few stars not long ago, and we can cooperate with each other to release new songs on the audition music products, earn the attention of fans, and advertise for us." ”

Kang Donghai kept it all in mind, drove the lane, and said sincerely: "Mr. Chen should spare one day every week to come to Yanjing to guide the work." Otherwise, those of us in Yanjing live in the Internet bubble economy, and we are trembling every day. ”

Chen Chuliang said with a smile: "I can put forward opinions, but the final implementation is still up to you." When we all work together, we can make more money. ”

If you say something cheesy, the laughter is louder, but it is also a little more humane.

Sun Kaixuan, who was next to him, looked out the window, and when the two of them didn't speak, he interjected: "Brother, I have two comrades-in-arms tonight, knowing that I came to Yanjing and want to pick me up and wash the dust, are you interested in being together?"

Chen Chuliang originally wanted to go to the new company to have a look, so he went to the first doctor to see Han Zhi, and said with a smile: "Can you bring one more person?"

Sun Kaixuan said heartily: "Ten or eight are no problem." ”
