Chapter 888: Once Rich

Magic City Club.

Shen Lang and Li Xiang played billiards for a while, and then sat on the sofa and chatted.

"Dong Shen, Bitmain is going to carry out Series B financing!" Li Xiang said in a tone that could not hide his excitement.

Shen Lang raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "No wonder you were a little absent-minded when you played billiards just now." ”

Li Xiang smiled: "Shen Dong, or do you want to shoot directly according to what we said?"

"Well, let's sell it, sell it while the valuation is high, and we'll withdraw if we make a profit. ”

Li Xiang smiled and nodded: "Okay, then I'll deal with it tomorrow." ”

Bitmain has been developing impressively by selling mining machines, and Li Xiang was looking at Bitmain's development model and suggested that Shen Lang invest in Bitmain.

Instead of buying Bitcoin, how can you invest in Bitmain to make more money.

Bitmain only offered $1.5 billion at the beginning, and Shen Lang bought 10% of the other party's shares.

Today, Bitmain's Series B financing has been valued at $12 billion.

That's an eightfold increase!

Even if Li Xiang has invested in many companies, he has not gained as much as Bitmain.

With this investment alone, Li Xiang will be able to get a commission of 50 million US dollars.

This is Shen Lang's reward to Li Xiang, as long as Li Xiang can dig out good investment projects, Shen Lang will not be stingy with rewards.

Shen Lang made a net profit of one billion US dollars.

It's scary to think about, I just made seven billion from Pinduoduo before.

It's only been a few days, and Bitmain has sent itself a huge return on revenue.

At exchange rates, the proceeds from this investment amounted to sixty and seven billion.

Either how to say that investment vision is very important, of course, there are companies that you can invest in if you have money.

At the beginning, if Pinduoduo hadn't seen the huge traffic port of the flying bicycle in Shen Lang's hands, it would not have accepted Shen Lang's investment.

Li Xiang and Shen Lang share the same view, as Bitcoin mining becomes more and more difficult, the sales of mining machines will inevitably decline.

At that time, Bitmain, a company whose main revenue comes from the sale of mining machines, will inevitably be impacted.

Li Xiang is not optimistic about Bitmain's listing plan, except for the sales of mining machines, Bitmain's other businesses are not mentioned.

"By the way, Shen Dong, I met with Chen Shi and Chen Qi brothers in Cambrian before, and they also plan to carry out Series B financing in the near future, do you plan to continue to hold shares, or?"

Cambrian is also engaged in the field of artificial intelligence, but it is mainly engaged in the research and development of chips.

The Cambrian chip launched before was adopted by Warwick, which gave Cambrian the confidence to prepare for Series B financing.

Shen Lang touched his chin and said, "I remember that I voted for their angel round and A round, right?"

"Yes, a lot of people out there are envious of it, and I've heard that a lot of national team funds are ready to support Cambrian.

The brothers Chen Shi and Chen Qi have a lot of ambitions, and they are still negotiating a valuation of $2.5 billion. ”

Li Xiang is not very optimistic about the development of Cambrian, which is now mainly dependent on Warwick's orders.

But Warwick has its own chip company, maybe when it will directly ban the cooperation with Cambrian, then the development of Cambrian will be difficult.

Shen Lang took advantage of the preemptive investment, and the valuation of the angel round was only 100 million US dollars, and it cost 15 million US dollars to win 15% of the shares.

After that, Cambrian conducted a Series A financing, taking out 10% of the shares, seeking to value a billion dollars in order to enter the ranks of unicorn companies.

Li Xiang was granted by Shen Lang, and without saying a word, he directly won Cambrian's Series A financing.

Other companies are still inspecting and discussing internally, and Cambrian directly announced the end of financing.

The brothers Chen Shi and Chen Qi were also grateful to Shen Lang and Li Xiang.

Unicorns are a watershed, especially in the field of chips in artificial intelligence.

Cambrian became the first unicorn chip company to break a billion dollar valuation.

But Cambrian was able to achieve this valuation is a bit inflated.

If Cambrian wins the Warwick order first, it will definitely not say a word, and venture capital institutions will line up to give a valuation of one billion US dollars.

But before the Warwick order, these venture capital institutions were hesitant and missed the opportunity.

After the A round of financing, only a few days later, Cambrian received an order from Warwick, which made a group of venture capital institutions pat their thighs depressedly.

However, after the B round, Shen Lang was not interested.

If you want to keep your shares, the money thrown into it is not a small amount.

Now Shen Lang only spent $115 million to control 25% of Cambrian's shares.

In addition to Chen Shi and Chen Qi brothers, Shen Lang has the most shares.

When it comes to financing, it is still necessary to consult Shen Lang, a shareholder.

After going through the matter in his mind, Shen Lang intended to shoot them all, but he didn't know how much appetite this group of national team funds could have.

After Li Xiang learned about Shen Lang's thoughts, he directly said that he would first contact the heads of several fund departments of the national team, and also inform the Cambrian brothers Chen Shi and Chen Qi.

As for the reason for Shen Lang's withdrawal, Shen Lang's investment in Jinli is also actively developing chips.

In the future, they may all be opponents, and there will be sufficient reasons to withdraw naturally.

Li wanted to leave in a hurry, Cambrian and Bitmain are both projects that Li wants to excavate, and Shen Lang will not be stingy with that little commission.

Shen Lang was also relieved to hand over the matter to Li Xiang, except for the share given to Li Xiang, if Cambrian's shares could be sold.

Shen Lang was able to net close to 500 million US dollars, and the speed of making money simply soared.

……

Seeing Li Xiang away, Lin Jun and Wan Zihao knew that Shen Lang had come to the Demon Capital Club, and they also rushed over.

The Magic City Club has its own restaurant dedicated to the wealthy here.

While eating the world's top chefs' own food, tasting wines from wineries around the world, and chatting with friends, life is nothing more than that.

Lin Jun took a box of expensive cigars, gave it to the waiter on the side to light it, and each of the three of them had one.

"I also bought this Cuban cigar from a friend, and it sells for $471 a piece, and it's only sold in a whole box. ”

Lin Jun took a sip, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow: "Tut, sure enough, it's still a little money to make me happy, how about it, it tastes good, right?"

Everyone will feel the taste of a cigar differently.

Lin Jun was holding a cigar, but he had a little more boss momentum on his body.

"I bought several boxes, and when the time comes, you will take two boxes with each of you when you leave. ”

Wan Zihao briefly talked about the situation of the Demon Capital Club, with Wan Zihao's identity and Lin Jun's management.

There are more and more billionaires in the Magic City Club, and although the number of places in the Honor membership card has increased, it is still not enough.

Whoever made this the magic capital, billionaires are nothing here.

With so many wealthy people joining, the Magic City Club has become a good place for the upper class to gather.

Many wealthy people would bring their children to chat with friends, and occasionally attend gatherings organized by Lin Jun.

The fame of the Magic Capital Club is getting louder and louder, and it has even attracted many wealthy people from other places, and the second generation has come to apply for naturalization.
