Chapter 14: It's a big game

Chen Xi said that he had never seen the sea yet, and when Zhang Yi finished his thesis defense, the two discussed it and chose Beidaihe as soon as they made the first stop.

Just go out to have fun, Chen Qiaoshan is only responsible for paying for it, as for where to go, it is up to them to decide.

Seeing that the two sisters were going to go out for a trip, Xiao Wu was envious, and when he caught up with the weekend, he tried his best to pry Chen Lao Er, wanting to go out to play for two days.

The Chen family brothers and sisters don't have many opportunities to get along with Zhang Yiyi, and Beidaihe is not very far from Yanjing, so after thinking about it, Chen Qiaoshan agreed, and it will take two days to delay anything.

Although it has entered summer, Beidaihe is not suitable for the sea for the time being, but fortunately, it is good to catch up with the tail of the shrimp season, eating seafood, blowing the sea breeze, and the brothers and sisters of the Chen family are also quite happy.

After playing in Beidaihe for two days, Chen Qiaoshan forcibly dragged Xiao Wu back to Yanjing.

Xiao Wu was reluctant to go, but she also knew that it was not easy to come out to play on the weekend, and if she wanted to skip class, even if she resorted to the means of splashing and rolling, Chen Lao Er categorically could not agree.

Soon after returning to Yanjing, Chen Qiaoshan received news that venture capital had approached Framework Media, and there was more than one.

Although there are debts, the funds of the framework are still abundant, and the fact that there are financiers who come to the door also shows that some people recognize the value of the framework, which is also good news.

"IDG Capital was the first to come to the door, and yesterday, the Northern Lights also came. "Financing is not within the framework plan, in this case, Tan Zhi did not dare to specialize, and found Chen Qiaoshan as soon as possible.

Chen Qiaoshan asked, "Northern Lights?"

Tan Zhi explained: "This is a newly established venture capital company, the initiator is Deng Feng, he is the founder of NetScreen, he was acquired last year, cashed out a lot of money, and he returned to China to start a venture capital. ”

Chen Qiaoshan naturally understands these situations, and the reason why he asked is because this is not the first time he has intersected with the Northern Lights.

In the previous life, Tan Zhi took the venture capital of IDG and Northern Lights to complete the framework of mergers and acquisitions, and now the main family has become a guest, Chen Qiaoshan has picked up the cheap, but the historical inertia is still there, and these two companies have finally been found, and he will feel a little strange in his heart.

"Mr. Chen, what do you think should be done?" Tan Zhi is actually very willing to promote financing, but it is a matter of the overall situation, although he is the president of Framework Media, he still has to ask the boss about financing.

In order to maximize profits, Chen Qiaoshan will certainly not choose financing, and it has reached the stage where the melon is ripe, and there is no reason to share the cake at this time, but he does not mind contacting venture capital.

Regarding the calculations in his heart, Chen Qiaoshan did not tell Tan Zhihe that financing can reduce risks and may also push up valuations, which should not be refused.

After a long groan, he stared at Tan Zhi and asked, "What do you think should be done?"

"Let's look at the situation first, and if the other party's offer is reasonable, I think it can be considered. Before coming, Tan Zhi had already analyzed various possibilities, Chen Qiaoshan did not express his position on the spot, he had a plan in his heart, and if he did not object, that is, he could talk, as for whether it could be negotiated, it was not something he could decide.

"Okay, you can do it, remember one thing, don't let go easily. Chen Qiaoshan specially confessed, and he also wanted to see how valuable frame media was in the eyes of venture capital.

……

After nearly a month away, Wang Sifeng finally returned from Silicon Valley.

This trip to the United States was a bit long, in addition to attending the annual meeting of Huayuan Association, mainly because before Wang Sifeng set off, Chen Qiaoshan specially explained that he was looking for investment opportunities in Silicon Valley this time.

As a partner of Tsingshan Capital, Wang Sifeng has never handled a specific project, and this time he is quite attentive.

"Brother Wang, this trip is really hard. Chen Qiaoshan personally went to the airport to pick up the people, and the long flight journey made Wang Sifeng look a little depressed.

"It's nothing else, it's just that the phone bill is a bit too much, and you have to report it to me when you go back." Wang Sifeng replied with a smile, Liu Chang was pregnant with a child, although he had already taken his mother-in-law over, but it was a month since he left, and it was really a bit unreasonable.

Chen Qiaoshan said with a smile: "No problem, you can report the number when you go back, and I will personally go to the finance to handle it for you." ”

Of course, this is a joke, not to mention Chen Qiaoshan, even Wang Sifeng and Liu Chang have already achieved financial freedom, so they naturally don't care about this little bit of money.

"It's a pity that you didn't go to this Huayuan meeting, almost half of the domestic IT bigwigs went to ......" On the way back, Wang Sifeng talked about what he had seen and heard during this time in Silicon Valley.

"There's nothing to be sorry for, there's a chance. Chen Qiaoshan was very open, "Let's not talk about work today, let's send you home first, call Dai Zhikang in the evening, and everyone will get together together." ”

Wang Sifeng already knew about Kangsheng's personnel changes, and he couldn't help but be concerned at this time: "Xiao Dai, they are okay, right?"

"It's nothing, it's been taken care of. Chen Qiaoshan's answer was very understated.

After completing the business handover, Cheng Liang has resigned from Kangsheng, the whole process is very low-key, he did not hand him over, it is already enough to give Dai Zhikang face, even if the other party has ideas in his heart, the fault is not on Chen Qiaoshan's side, and he has no burden in his heart.

However, Dai Zhikang has taken the initiative to talk a few times, and wants to find a professional manager, whether it is true or false, Chen Qiaoshan did not agree, the company's personnel has changed blood, at this stage, there is no need to replace Dai Zhikang, he just knows no one else, after this incident, there must be some changes.

"Okay, we'll talk in the evening. Wang Sifeng no longer asked, Liu Chang is now the financial director of Kangsheng, and if he wants to know the specific situation, he will ask again when he goes home.

"Here are some of the financing applications I've received in Silicon Valley, and you'll see if there's anything agreeable. ”

Wang Sifeng is quite conscientious, this trip to Silicon Valley, in addition to Huayuanhui, he also found many college classmates, acquaintances to lead the way, and came into contact with many projects.

Chen Qiaoshan took a thick pile of materials and flipped through them, most of them were English documents, but some were traditional Chinese versions, and he said curiously: "Why are there still applications in traditional Chinese characters?"

"In Silicon Valley, Huayuan will not be the mainstream, when it comes to venture capital, the main thing is that Hong Kong and Taiwan have the most funders, after the end of Huayuanhui, I also went to Yushan Club to walk, where there are a large number of Taiwanese IT people, many of which are indigestible internally, I use the banner of Tsingshan Capital, but there are also people to find. ”

After a trip to Silicon Valley, Wang Sifeng's biggest feeling is that capital has no borders, whether it is the US dollar, the British pound or the guilder, as long as you have money in your hand, it is not a problem whether you have qualifications or not, unlike in China, if you want to get overseas funds, you often need to toss for a long time.

Wang Sifeng used to be a standard code farmer, and it was inevitable to complain a few words at this time, Chen Qiaoshan smiled, but he didn't feel that there was any problem.

Whether it's Zhongguancun or Silicon Valley, starting a business is quite difficult.

If you want to succeed, you have to break through under your own rules, which is a universal truth, and no one can be an exception.

Sending Wang Sifeng home, Chen Qiaoshan returned to the office with the materials, and he also wanted to see what kind of projects Wang Sifeng brought back.

Chen Qiaoshan does not want to be an international capital, but he always has to give it a try when he has the opportunity.

In China, Tsingshan Capital is not the first venture capital to set its sights overseas, as far as Chen Qiaoshan knows, Legend Capital was the first to deploy in Silicon Valley.

Legend was formerly known as Legend Investment, doing business, Lenovo has always been criticized, doing venture capital, but it is rarely known to outsiders, but this does not affect the vision of Legend Capital, and there are also some small and large projects.

Holding the project book handed back by Wang Sifeng, Chen Qiaoshan did not report much hope, and for the sake of insurance, he was going to go through it roughly first.

However, when two documents appeared in front of him, Chen Qiaoshan jumped up in shock, one of which was Vimeo, and the other was called Youtube.
