Yan Xiaoqin was not short of money, and he didn't have much concept of money, but he was still shocked by the offer of tens of millions of dollars, "Is the Qingshan Forum really worth 10 million dollars?"

"Whether it's worth it or not depends on who the buyer is, but below this price will definitely not be sold. ”

Chen Qiaoshan knows very well that now is the key node of Internet transformation.

Not long ago, the blog network received an investment of $1 million from IDG Capital, and the users claimed to have reached 1 million, but in the eyes of insiders, there is a lot of water in it.

Forums are still niche, and blogs are even more niche among niches, but the rise of the two is just around the corner.

Chen Qiaoshan has been paying attention to the wind and grass of the Internet, Facebook was just born at the beginning of the year, and before that, domestic SNS social networking sites have appeared.

As early as last year, Wang Xin gave up his upcoming doctorate and left the United States to return to China to found Duoduoyou, the predecessor of the intranet.

The first batch of users are also students in Qingbei, but the results are really reluctant, the total number of users is less than 20,000, and the active users are even more pitiful.

At the beginning of July, Duoduoyou's server quietly went offline, and less than a year before and after, Wang Xin's first venture ended in failure.

Chen Qiaoshan was a bystander, without the slightest intention of intervening.

He knows very well in his heart that entrepreneurship must follow the trend, when to produce what kind of products, premature intervention can only be heroic, Shanda is the best example.

……

Jingxi Dajue Temple, Minghui Tea House.

IDG set this meeting here, the surrounding environment is quite good, but it is not very convenient to come and go.

Dajue Temple is a thousand-year-old temple, located at the foot of the balcony of Xishan Mountain, adjacent to the Eagle Peak National Forest Park, and fifty miles away from Zhongguancun.

The magnolia in the temple is very famous, in the spring of this year, the student union of the college organized a spring outing here, Chen Qiaoshan did not participate at that time, he still came back this time.

"It's pretty cool here. "Yan Xiaoqin is the driver today, and she is also here for the first time, and there is novelty everywhere.

Although it is the middle of July, perhaps because it is a mountainous area, it is quite cool, and the temple is full of ancient trees and forests, and the environment is excellent.

It was about half past four in the afternoon, and the two of them wanted to go around the temple, so they came an hour early.

The temple is not crowded with tourists, and it is very quiet.

Starting from the mountain gate, the two walked casually, the release pool, the stele pavilion, the Tianwang Palace, along the way, there were not many special scenery.

Until the Daxiong Treasure Palace, a plaque suddenly appeared in Chen Qiaoshan's sight, "There is nowhere to go", when he recognized these four words, his heart was suddenly a spirit.

Although Chen Qiaoshan didn't know anything about Buddhism, he was also confused.

He really has nowhere to go, there is no past in this life, and the farthest can only be traced back to a year ago, it is really a bit chilling to think about it.

Chen Qiaoshan was a little uneasy, and wanted to find someone to ask, Dajue Temple is a monk temple without monks.

"What's the matter, don't you go in and take a look?" Yan Xiaoqin couldn't help but ask when he saw that he didn't move for a long time.

Chen Qiaoshan was not easy to explain, so he had to hurriedly walk in, but he was no longer interested in visiting.

"Let's go to the teahouse and sit for a while. ”

Yan Xiaoqin asked, "What's the matter, didn't you just say that you wanted to go and see the spring?"

Dajue Temple is also known as Lingquan Temple, there is a spring outside the Dragon King Hall at the highest place, the mountain spring in the temple flows through, but it eliminates a lot of heat.

"It's almost time, let's go to the teahouse first, and then we will go up after meeting the investors later." ”

After all, I came here today to talk about business, and Yan Xiaoqin didn't insist.

Entering the tea house, there are a few hundred-year-old trees in the courtyard, and a few tea tables are scattered in the middle, which looks very quiet.

There were no guests in the courtyard, and the two of them found a shady spot at random, and a waiter dressed as a female student of the Republic of China came over and said, "Welcome, what kind of tea do you want?"

Chen Qiaoshan picked up the tea list and looked at it, "Let's have a pot of Taiping Houkui, a platter of dried fruits, and a chilled fried red fruit." ”

When the waiter went down, Yan Xiaoqin couldn't help but sigh, "The tea here is too expensive." ”

Chen Qiaoshan didn't pay much attention to it at first, but after looking at the tea list, he understood why the tea house was so quiet.

The tea list is not less than 300 yuan, but looking at the surrounding environment, it is worth the money, if there are more people, it will lose that artistic conception.

"No, do you still care about the tea money?"

Yan Xiaoqin glanced at him, Taiping Monkey Kui is eight hundred and eight, two snacks are two hundred, although the two of them are not short of money, but this kind of high consumption is the first time, "You can't waste money if you have it, you just ordered more than a thousand." ”

Chen Qiaoshan was a little more relaxed, and he smiled: "Don't worry, I will let those capitalists pay for it later." ”

Seeing that he showed this brazen energy again, Yan Xiaoqin was happy.

When the waiter brought the tea, the two of them realized that the tea here is a bag or cup, and a bag of tea can be two taels, and if you can't finish drinking, you can store it or take it away.

"This fried red fruit tastes good, you can try it. Yan Xiaoqin was not very interested in tea, but was very satisfied with the plate of Beijing-style snacks in front of him.

"That's for you, sweet and sour ones aren't for me. Chen Qiaoshan grabbed a few white melon seeds casually, and did not continue to ponder the allusion of "nowhere to go", his mind was focused on the upcoming meeting.

IDG's intention is obvious, since it is an appointment to meet, it must have the intention of investing.

Kangsheng's platform website has successfully obtained the record, and won a large amount of financing, the prospect is good, and it is not surprising that it has attracted investors.

Kangsheng is not short of money at present, and it is only a matter of time before it achieves net profit, but Chen Qiaoshan does not refuse to contact venture capital, and financing can not only increase capital reserves, but also strengthen resources and channels.

The benefits of financing are obvious, as for how to choose, Chen Qiaoshan did not make up his mind, so he could only act at the opportunity.

The tea house is very quiet, except for the waiter who occasionally comes to refill the water, there is no longer half a figure, Chen Qiaoshan looked at the table below, there is still half an hour before the agreed time.

Just then, two men walked into the courtyard.

The one who walked in front, Chen Qiaoshan knew, and it was clearly Wang Gongquan who wrote "always the heart of spring to the wind, and the most hated fame in the world".

He is a little unsure, today he is IDG, and Wang Gongquan is one of the founders of CDH Ventures.

CDH Ventures is a sub-fund of CDH Investment, even so, it is also a venture fund with no bad money, and the investment amount starts at tens of millions of US dollars.

Chen Qiaoshan was interested in getting to know him, but after a little hesitation, he gave up again, after all, this is a private place, and people may not want to be disturbed.

Unexpectedly, the two newcomers to the courtyard walked straight to Chen Qiaoshan's table.

Although he was surprised, Chen Qiaoshan immediately stood up and took the initiative to ask, "Mr. Wang, are you looking for me?"

Wang Gongquan was surprised: "You know me?"

Chen Qiaoshan said with a smile: "Mr. Wang's reputation in the capital world is difficult to know or not. ”

There is a bit of flattery in these words, but only Chen Qiaoshan himself knows that he is more ridiculous.

Wang Gongquan, as one of the six gentlemen of Wantong and a big man in the investment industry, is naturally famous.

But what brought him into the wide field of vision was the uproar of elopement, he ran away with his lover, and posted on Weibo to make it public, only to announce his return to the family a few months later, which can also be called bloody.

"You're Mr. Chen of Kangsheng, right?" another man interjected,

Chen Qiaoshan glanced at the other party, forty years old, with a thin face and a pair of glasses, but quite energetic, he nodded, "I am Chen Qiaoshan." ”

"Hello, I'm Li Xiaojun, this is my business card, please take care of me in the future. ”

Chen Qiaoshan didn't prepare a business card at all, so he could only say sorry, and then he took the business card handed by the other party, and he took a closer look, Li Xiaojun, manager of IDG investment department.

The guests sat down, the waiter brewed a pot of tea again, and a few people started today's topic.

Wang Gongquan picked up the remaining bag of tea leaves on the table, glanced at it, and asked, "This is the Taiping Monkey Kui, right?"

"Mr. Wang has good eyesight. Chen Qiaoshan was a little surprised, this person is really a bit of a doorman, definitely a person in the tea ceremony.

Wang Gongquan said with a smile: "What kind of eyesight do I have, the boss here is a cultural person, I heard him say in detail last time, Taiping Houkui used to be tribute tea, and not long ago he became the tea king of the tea fair, but unfortunately, I am afraid that it will be difficult to taste it in the future." ”

Li Xiaojun asked, "What, what else can't be said?"

"At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the top Taiping Monkey Kui had an annual output of less than 100 catties, and now although it has improved, it is only three or five hundred catties, and the price is a little more expensive, but it can be afforded. ”

After a pause, Wang Gongquan sighed: "I heard that Taiping Houkui is going to expand the cultivation on a large scale, this kind of tea has special requirements for climate and soil quality, and if it continues like this, it will definitely lose its reputation in the future." ”

Chen Qiaoshan didn't have this worry, but he still briefly echoed a few words.

After chatting about tea culture for a while, the topic turned to the main topic.

Li Xiaojun said: "Mr. Chen, you must have a certain understanding of IDG, and I invite you to come here today just to get to know each other and look for opportunities for cooperation." ”

Chen Qiaoshan is not in a hurry to say that IDG is rich, as early as 98 years, he promised to invest 1 billion US dollars in China, which can be seen by IDG, although it may not be successful in starting a business, at least it proves the value of the product.

"Mr. Li, with all due respect, IDG's investment in the Internet industry has always seemed to be non-turtle investment, right?"

IDG's early investment rules were no secret, and the development of the Internet in China lagged behind, and international students became the mainstream of entrepreneurship, and this situation did not change much before the arrival of the mobile Internet.

Li Xiaojun said: "This is not absolute, as long as the project is suitable, we will not treat it differently." ”

"Thank you, but our company has just completed its first round of financing of $2 million, and there is no need for funds for the time being. As soon as Chen Qiaoshan came up, he directly pointed out that Kangsheng is not short of money, don't use money to talk about things.

"We have done a preliminary investigation and found that Discuz has excellent performance and is highly competitive in the world, but so far, Kangsheng has been limited to the domestic market. Li Xiaojun is not a newcomer to the capital market, so he naturally knows how to deal with it, and he didn't go around the bush and directly pointed out Kangsheng's shortcomings.

IDG stands for International Data Group, and China is just a division of it.

Li Xiaojun's meaning is very clear, as long as the two reach an agreement, IDG can help expand the international market.

Chen Qiaoshan sighed in his heart, sure enough, he is a professional investment manager, and he has already found Kangsheng's shortcomings for the first contact.

JAFCO Asia is the capital of Japan and its influence is limited to Asia, while IDG is one of the top five venture capital funds in the world.

If IDG promises to help open up the European and American markets, it would be a good choice to accept them.

Kangsheng has a good momentum, has passed the state of thirst for capital, and now financing is more about development and balance.

Chen Qiaoshan hesitated, if IDG really entered the game this time, the valuation may be a big problem, and the control of the company's operation is another problem, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to come up with an exact plan in the short term.
