Chapter 898: Titan Technology (I'm tired of adding more now for the alliance leader!)

At nine o'clock in the morning the next day, Cai Jianping and Chen Qidong, who were drunk last night, did not delay their business at all, chatting about the details of cooperation.

Previously, the company account of Dragon Ball Live was opened in Nanyue Bank, which is convenient to operate.

Nanyue Bank was immediately approved by Luo Yan, the president of the head office, and 100 million US dollars was remitted to the account of Dragon Ball Live.

When Chen Qidong received the money, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Cai Jianping politely.

Cai Jianping smiled and chatted with Chen Qidong, then said goodbye to Shen Lang and went to the next place.

As the head of Nanyue Capital, Cai Jianping has a lot to do, and countless companies send him investment applications every day.

Cai Jianping's task is to select the most potential from these applicants, invest in them, and work hard to incubate a few unicorns.

As for the Dragon Ball live broadcast, Cai Jianping didn't care too much, the Dragon Ball live broadcast itself is enough to qualify as a unicorn.

Cai Jianping wants to prove that he can only dig out a company with his own hands, not pretending to use Shen Lang's resources.

With 100 million US dollars in the account, Chen Qidong first set aside the anchor's salary.

I went to negotiate the price with the person in charge of the telecom and tried to reduce the cost of bandwidth.

It is estimated that the only one in China that can be about the same as the cost of Dragon Ball live broadcast bandwidth is Betta.

However, Betta is also trying to find a way to cut costs, and Chen Qidong also meant this last night.

Basically, all live streaming platform bandwidth fees are based on the current month's peak bandwidth monthly settlement.

According to the current bandwidth cost of 20 million yuan per month given by the industry, assuming that according to the current standard, 720p clarity is provided to users, and if there are 1 million viewers watching the live broadcast at the peak, about 15t bandwidth is required.

According to this calculation, the theoretical bandwidth cost of the live broadcast platform is about 30 million yuan per month.

However, due to the application of IC, CN and other technologies in the live broadcast, that is, multiple people are allowed to operate concurrently at the same time.

The actual bandwidth and cost occupied are also lower than this figure, and some may be divided by 3 to about 10 million yuan per month.

Chen Qidong means to adopt such a hybrid live broadcast technology, according to the current monthly peak of Dragon Ball Live at 12 million, the bandwidth cost is 1.2 billion in a month.

This price is much more reasonable, at least within the affordability of Dragon Ball Live.

However, what should be talked about still has to be discussed, after all, the cost of bandwidth is measured in hundreds of millions, and it can be reduced by a little.

Dragon Ball Live doesn't need to bother much, Chen Qidong has 100 million US dollars, plus a variety of live broadcast methods to reduce bandwidth costs, Dragon Ball Live has at least no problem with three or four months.

Shen Lang returned to the magic capital and met Tang Xiaoou.

In the Magic City Club, Tang Xiaoou also got a membership card.

SenseTime has invested in an industrial park in Magic City, intending to build SenseTime's global R&D headquarters.

The scale of investment has reached 6 billion, and even Wan Jianhua personally met with Tang Xiaoou.

Tang Xiaoou is a scholar with a full temperament and is also a world-class professor, and the companies founded by such figures are often more popular with capital.

As a result, many professors in the field of artificial intelligence have started their own businesses, and they have obtained high valuations.

After meeting, the waiter poured water.

Tang Xiaoou smiled and clarified his intention: "Mr. Shen, I came this time mainly to understand your views on SenseTime's Series C financing?"

"Of course, it's co-investment, and SenseTime's valuation won't be like that. ”

Shen Lang said without hesitation.

Tang Xiaoou said with a smile: "This time we carried out the C round of financing, there are a total of several interested capitals, and Ahri, Temasek, and Suning have become new investors.

We expect to raise $600 million, which is valued at $3 billion approved by all three institutions. ”

Shen Lang's face remained unchanged, and he was also surprised by the speed at which SenseTime's valuation had risen rapidly.

When Shen Lang raised funds, SenseTime Technology was only in Series A, and at that time, 400 million US dollars was used to get SenseTime.

After that, SenseTime's financing speed was getting faster and faster, and the B round raised $4.1 billion, and Shen Lang chose to follow the investment.

Even now, SenseTime Technology has not yet reached its peak, SoftBank has not yet arrived, how can Shen Lang withdraw.

In addition to customizing a set of engines for Douyin at the beginning, SenseTime only adopted some technologies in the microcosm later.

Shen Lang owns 15 shares of SenseTime, and the financing amount of SenseTime Technology has reached 600 million US dollars.

Almost 20 shares were taken out to bring in three institutions, and those previous shareholders would have diluted their shares if they did not follow suit.

Shen Lang has a lot of money and has no place to talk, and the money he invested with is nothing, just 90 million US dollars.

When SoftBank enters the game and sells it, it can make even more money.

Even if Shen Lang quits now, he will make a lot of money.

However, at present, SenseTime's C round is only valued at $3 billion, and when SoftBank comes in, the valuation will soar to $6 billion.

The difference is only four months, and the valuation has directly doubled!

This is the power of SenseTime, Shen Lang only intends to stick to the wheel.

According to Tang Xiaoou's temperament, it is likely that the financing will be greater in the future, and in the end, it is estimated that few people will be able to follow.

Tang Xiaoou came to see Shen Lang mainly to talk to Shen Lang, when the previous B round of financing, Shen Lang directly followed the investment without saying a word, and remitted the funds to the SenseTime Technology account, which made Tang Xiaoou feel very good.

Shen Lang didn't care about any voting rights, and handed it over directly to Tang Xiaoou, and among the investors of SenseTime Technology, it was Shen Lang who supported Tang Xiaoou so much.

"Okay, Shen Dong, I still have something to do, let's talk about it later. ”

Tang Xiaoou chatted for a while and offered to leave.

Shen Lang sent Tang Xiaoou to the door, and watched Tang Xiaoou get off the elevator and leave.

The field of artificial intelligence is very hot, and Shen Lang is also a little greedy.

Shen Lang has already instructed Chen Yun to help set up an artificial intelligence company, named Titan Technology.

The first business is to make chips, and the company's registered location is in Rongcheng.

The magic capital already has a microcosm, and Titan Technology will not be able to compete for the honor of Rongcheng's business card in the future.

In contrast, it is indeed unrealistic to point to Star Mutual Entertainment to become the business card of Rongcheng with the identity of a game company.

Titan Technology is different, Shen Lang directly announced that he would take out an investment plan of 10 billion yuan to build a high-tech industrial park in Chengdu.

No matter which city attaches great importance to enterprises engaged in scientific research, it can enhance the heritage of a city.

Titan Technology invites top talents from all over the world, and the treatment and benefits are the top in the industry.

Even a Cambrian can have a valuation of 2.5 billion US dollars, Shen Lang doesn't believe that he has so many technologies in his hands, and he can't compare to Cambrian?

If you want money, technology, and technology, Shen Lang has recruited a group of top talents, but it is just to cover up the source of technology.

The world's top headhunting firms have taken action, and Shen Lang is notoriously not bad for money, with more than $20 billion in assets disclosed by Forbes alone.

A group of headhunting companies have taken out valuable talents at the bottom of the box and pushed them to Rongcheng Titan Technology, hoping to satisfy Shen Lang.

All of them are doctoral students who graduated from the world's top universities, and their luxurious resumes can make ordinary people full of inferiority.

Shen Lang selected the most potential group from them, and recruited a total of fifty people to become the first batch of Titan Technology's team.

The CEO of Titan Technology is served by Shen Lang himself, but Shen Lang is only in name, and the specific scientific research and development is responsible for these top talents.

However, if they underestimate Shen Lang, Shen Lang will definitely teach them to be people every minute, and krypton people are so confident.
