Chapter 130 Two Investments
"Teacher Ma, Teacher Zhang, please stay. ”
After Sun Shaobao announced the dissolution of the meeting, Du Qiu stopped Ma Yun and his wife, he took out his car keys, handed them to Liu Yunlai, and said, "Brother Liu, you take Director Sun downstairs first, I will talk about some private matters, and it will be fine soon." ”
"Okay. ”
Du Qiu's emotional intelligence is not high, and he can use the psychological advantages of crossing the party in public, but he is not good at dealing with celebrities in his previous life in private, and after everyone in the conference room leaves, Ma Yun, who is facing with apprehension and expectation, after he was silent for a while, he decided to imitate the other party's speech routine and sprinkle chicken soup.
"Mr. Ma, I have always believed in the concept of success because of people, whether a person can succeed or not, mainly depends on two things, one, whether there is vision, two, whether there is execution, you can see the business opportunities when you just opened the Internet in China, the vision is good, you can decisively give up the iron rice bowl to start a business, the execution is very strong, I admire it very much, so I want to cooperate with you. ”
"Mr. Du has won the award, but I haven't ...... it"
Du Qiu waved his hand, interrupted Ma Yun's self-humility, and asked directly: "I'm busy now, I don't have time to go to Hangzhou to investigate, Mr. Ma, how much do you think your Haibo company is worth now?"
Ma Yun founded Haibo Computer Service Company in April 1995, and at present, in addition to the couple, there is only one employee, and it is part-time, the office is also rented, and the fixed assets are only a telephone, a printer and two computers, and nothing else.
However, in the meeting just now, Ma Yun said that his company was very similar to that in order to compete for the quota of Hangzhou Information Port, it was not easy to change his words at this time, and he hesitated for a moment and then introduced: "Haibo's registered capital is 100,000 yuan, and it has been open for more than three months, and the business is progressing very quickly, and it has opened a web page for more than 20 companies, and its revenue is growing every month......
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ma, I just said, I am investing in you as a person, not the company, and I am not interested in Haibo's current business, so there is no need to introduce the specific situation, you can give me an estimate directly." ”
Ma Yun was stunned when he heard this, he couldn't figure out what Du Qiu meant, and he and his wife Zhang Ying looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.
"Mr. Ma, in my opinion, your vision is worth 100,000, and your execution is worth 100,000, a total of 200,000. Du Qiu felt that the atmosphere in the conference room was a little dignified, so he raised two fingers, faced Zhang Ying, and said with a smile: "Husband and wife are concentric, their profits are broken, Mr. Zhang, you can fully support Mr. Ma's resignation and entrepreneurship, his vision and courage are not inferior to him, and it is worth 200,000." ”
Zhang Ying smiled when she heard this, and Ma Yun also laughed, and the two held hands under the conference table with a tacit understanding, and the tense atmosphere in the room like an interview became a lot easier.
"Since Mr. Ma said that Haibo's registered capital is 100,000, then it should be worth 100,000, so that a total of 500,000 yuan. Du Qiu quickly cut through the mess and said straightforwardly: "I plan to invest 500,000 yuan to you, and both sides will account for 50% of the shares, and if the development is good, I will make additional investments in the future." The two of you will go back and think about it first, if you are willing to accept it, you will make another appointment to discuss it in detail, if you don't want to, it doesn't matter, there will be other opportunities to cooperate in the future. ”
500,000 yuan in the Internet industry 20 years later, but in 1995 in the country is a small investment, for Haibo has just opened for 3 months of small companies are very friendly, not only to alleviate the lack of money to develop, but also not to lose too much equity, Ma Yun and his wife were overjoyed, almost in unison said: "We are willing." ”
Du Qiu originally planned to invest $500,000 in Ma Yun, but when he had dinner with Jennifer at noon, he asked some common sense about venture capital, and then he realized that it is not appropriate for micro startups to invest too much money at one time, because snatching too many shares will make the founder lose the motivation to struggle, and too much money will make the founder hot-headed, greedy for merit, squandering everywhere, and dying faster.
In 1995, the conditions for domestic e-commerce were not mature, even if Snapdragon provided technical support, Ma Yun was unlikely to make a name for himself in two or three years, so there was no need to invest too much money at once, so Du Qiu changed 500,000 US dollars to 500,000 yuan, one is to attract talents, and the other is to experiment for his own venture capital fund.
Seeing that the goal had been achieved, Du Qiu nodded with a smile and said, "I still have a party to attend tonight, so I won't entertain the two, if you have any questions or needs, just look for Xiao Dai." ”
As he spoke, he stood up, pointed to Dai Yi, who was sitting in the corner sorting out the meeting minutes, and instructed: "Xiao Dai, you drive the company's car, send Teacher Ma and Teacher Zhang back to the hotel for me, and entertain you well in the evening." ”
Dai Yi was in a good mood since she knew that she didn't have to go to the capital to be a salesman, not only radiant, but also a lot smarter, and responded prettyly: "Okay." ”
After getting Ma Yun and his wife, Du Qiu went downstairs to meet Sun Shaobao and Liu Yunlai, drove the BMW M5 to the Pearl Hotel, and discussed investment matters with Hu Zhibiao and Chen Tiannan, the founders of Aiduo VCD, this time, they talked for more than four hours, and it didn't end until nearly 9 o'clock in the evening, and there was no result.
In terms of importance, Ma Yun and his wife far surpass Hu Zhibiao and Chen Tiannan, but the investment in Ma Yun and his wife is Du Qiu's private funds, and their own money can be spent as much as they want, so they can quickly cut through the mess and solve it in a few minutes.
In addition to Sun Shaobao and Su Wenhai, there are also Lu Zijian, Gu Shoubing and Wang Changan, who came to hear the wind, the capital composition is more complicated, Du Qiu can't behave too casually, so he tossed for a few hours, not only to listen to Hu Zhibiao blowing conch in half-baked Mandarin, but also to endure Sun Shaobao's bargaining, and make his head as big as a fight.
Su Wenhai and Wang Huihui also participated in this negotiation, the two of them have not bought a car, after leaving the hotel, Du Qiu sent them back, on the way, Wang Huihui sat in the back row, talking and laughing about some news about the Internet conference, usually has been grinning, Su Wenhai, who is unscrupulous, sat in the passenger seat, and remained silent throughout the whole process.
When the car was about to arrive at Qingyun Square, Su Wenhai suddenly said: "Du Qiu, my little sister has always liked you, do you know?"
Du Qiu didn't answer, just tapped his fingers lightly on the steering wheel.
Su Wenhai didn't get a reply, let out a long sigh, turned his head and rolled down the window, took out a lighter and a cigarette from his pants pocket, lit one and smoked it.
Du Qiu has a slight cleanliness habit, and it is usually strictly forbidden for anyone to smoke in his car, but at this time he did not stop it, Wang Huihui saw this, and said tentatively in a cautious tone: "Du Qiu, in fact, Wenxiu liked you when she first met you, but she was thin-skinned and embarrassed to confess to you......"
"Emotional matters, such as people drinking water, know their own warmth and coldness, and others should not meddle in their affairs. Du Qiu interrupted Wang Huihui's words, parked the car at the intersection next to Qingyun Square, and said, "It's here, you guys get out of the car." ”
Su Wenhai flicked his fingers, popped the cigarette that he had only smoked two puffs out of the car far away, and said, "Du Qiu, no matter what, my little sister and I are your friends, friends for life, aren't we?"
"Yes. ”
Su Wenhai nodded vigorously, pushed the car door, strode away, Wang Huihui hurriedly said a few polite words through the car window, and then chased after the LV bag that she bought from the United States with Jiang Danfeng.
Du Qiu looked at the backs of the two of them, smiled slightly, then turned on the car radio, listened to the music, and drove home.
When I got home, it was already more than 9 o'clock, only my mother Du Chunhua was home alone, she was wearing loose home clothes, sitting lazily on the sofa, holding a white covered printed document and looking through it, a plate of saltwater peanuts on the coffee table in front of her, and half a bottle of cold beer next to her.
"Sister, I'm very good at enjoying it. Our dad and Jinyan haven't come back yet?"
In order to avoid being harassed, Du Cunzhi took Lin Jinyan to take refuge in the morning with his godfather Wang Chang'an.
"I said that I was crazy with Wang Guanguan, I slept there tonight and didn't come back. Du Chunhua flipped through a printed manuscript and said without raising his head: "I called Danfeng just now, and she said that our dad is admiring his dad's collection and will wait a while before coming back." ”
Jiang Danfeng is one of the employees with the largest workload during the Internet conference, she is tired enough in the past two days, there are no important activities this afternoon, Du Qiu let her go home to rest, and when she heard the words, she asked, "What collection?"
"Danfeng's father has a lot of old newspapers and magazines from the Republic of China, you know, our dad likes antique old things the most. ”
After Du Qiu crossed, it was rare to see his mother reading so attentively, and he was a little curious, so he walked over and picked up a saltwater peanut, and asked while peeling it, "What are you looking at?"
With a strange smile on his face, Du Chunhua raised his hands and showed the cover of the printout, Du Qiu was a little surprised when he saw the words "The first draft of the translation of the "White Night Walking" version written on it, and asked, "Where did you get it?"
"I invited Aiko Komatsu to dinner at night, and I brought it from her, saying that Qin Weizhen asked her to bring it to you for review. Du Chunhua put down the manuscript, leaned over and picked up the wine bottle, took a sip of beer, and commented: "Little brother, your book is very well written, the story and characters are quite interesting, but some of the plots are too perverted and disgusting, if our father sees it, he will definitely talk about you." ”
"White Night Walking" has some heavy plots that impact the three views of normal people and a few detailed descriptions that are inappropriate for children, with the current situation of the domestic publishing industry, if it is published, these details will definitely be deleted, so Du Qiu didn't worry about his family seeing it before, but he didn't expect Du Chunhua to get the first draft from Aiko Komatsu.
Du Qiu and Du Cunzhi are relatives of the next generation, not as afraid of their grandfather as their father and mother, and they have already been full of favorability after crossing over, so they don't take it to heart, he eats saltwater peanuts, and explains very casually: "Sex and violence are the most eye-catching themes in the world, and they are also the most written subjects, if you don't write bizarre, how can you attract readers?"
Du Chunhua just habitually scared Du Qiu, in fact, she didn't plan to show the manuscript to Du Cunzhi, she took "White Night Walking" as love, and after chatting with interest for a while about the relationship between men and women in the book, she suddenly remembered one thing and said: "Komatsu Aiko said that there is no problem with your visa, as long as you go to the consulate and go through the motions, you can go to Dongying." ”
Aiko Komatsu has been in Cloud City for several days, and she hasn't taken out the manuscript, but today she handed it over to Du Chunhua, obviously having other plans like Jennifer, Du Qiu frowned and asked, "What else did she say?"
"I also asked you where you lived in Dongying, if you had any friends, etc., and I prevaricated. Du Chunhua glanced at Du Qiu, half teasing and half reminding: "Little brother, the more I look at it, the more I think you look like Tang Seng, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, especially able to attract female goblins, you must hold on, don't lose your nature and forget who you are." ”
"It's not me that's what they're looking for, it's money. Du Qiu moved the pillow behind him, lay down on the sofa, and said lazily: "In a few days, I will send our father back to his hometown first, and then go to Dongying." Sister, why don't you take Jinyan and come with me to play for a few days?"
"I don't know Japanese, and I can't help if I go, so let's go alone, deal with what should be handled, clean up what should be cleaned up, say goodbye to the previous life, and live well as a family in the future." ”
"Oh well. ”
The two were chatting, when the landline phone at home rang, and Du Qiu saw that his mother, who was closer to the phone, didn't move his fingers, so he had to get up from the sofa he had just laid down and answer the phone.
The call was made by Du Cunzhi using Jiang Danfeng's mobile phone, and he said angrily: "Xiaoqiu, Dawei called me just now, saying that Jinyu was born, the mother and daughter are safe, I will go to the hospital now, you tell your sister, if it is convenient, go over and have a look." ”
In the original time and space, Du Qiu's half-sister was named Lin Annie, born on August 25, 1995, and now not only was her name fanned by butterfly wings into Lin Jiayu, but her birthday was also a few days earlier, which made him a little stunned, and he said after a pause: "Okay, I'll tell my sister." ”
There is only family affection and no love between Du Chunhua and Lin Dawei, which originally belonged to a divorce that is good to get together and disperse, under the intentional or unintentional matchmaking of Du Qiu's own son, although the fate is scattered, the correspondence has not been interrupted, but the relationship has changed from husband and wife to friends, I heard that Liang Jinyu gave birth to a daughter, and immediately got up and found the red envelope that had been prepared a long time ago, and took Du Qiu to the hospital together. 8)
