Chapter 480: This is the person Mr. Chen is going to use
DFJ wholly-owned venture capital fund is in contact with whiteness.
This is the [core message] that Chen Zier conveyed a few days after he instructed his subordinates to pay attention to this company.
DFJ ...... He may not have known much about the company before, but at the level he can reach now, he still knows about this large venture capital firm headquartered in Silicon Valley.
As for the entrepreneurial process of B in BAT, his own memory and thinking are not particularly clear, of course, the initial $1.2 million in funding is what has happened, which can be known.
That's the way it is, and Whiteness starts with $1.2 million, which is the money Robin brought back from the United States.
The second piece of information that is already known is that Baidu has developed its first Chinese search engine, and the data they publish externally is that it can search 5 million web pages.
Compared to other search engine companies, this is already a remarkable number.
The third is the information that everyone knows, the NASDAQ collapsed, the color changed,
So it is conceivable that even Robin, who brought back $1.2 million, is actually not at ease, because if the general environment continues to develop like this, he will probably not see a second money until he makes a profit.
This is a very serious matter, because the matter of making a profit sounds more unreliable than raising money in the current market.
No one knows how Internet companies make money.
This is probably the reason why Robin contacted DFJ, and the latter is also investigating it, the reason is still that, now it takes not only vision to invest, but also a huge fucking courage!
Chen Zier didn't remember when the second round of financing was completed in Baidu, and he was a little panicked when he saw the report of his subordinates, thinking that he had forgotten the wrong time, but sitting on the office chair and analyzing it, he could probably understand that Defengjie would not be so fast.
And he is absolutely confident, as long as he speaks out, Robin will definitely fly from Yanjing to Zhonghai.
This is the confidence given to him by Shengshi Investment and Chen Zier in the Internet field.
And at this time in Yanjing,
There is a place called Peking University Resources Hotel, two rooms, 1414 and 1417, the former is Robin and Xu Yong's room, and the latter is where the engineers work.
As usual, he and his staff were busy testing the new search engine program.
Now he mainly needs to solve two problems, one, since the product has been developed, that is, to find a market, and his idea is to serve as a search engine technology provider for portals.
Just like the relationship between Yahoo and Excite, Yahoo later launched a web portal, and their own search technology was so bad that they outsourced this part of the demand to Excite, in short, it was to add a search bar, and of course this service was later taken away by Google.
In the era when portals are king, everyone doesn't know that independent search engine companies can make money, and you see Yahoo is crooked when it walks.
The same goes for whiteness, which serves the portal provider, which is his initial positioning.
Second, he needs a second financing, $1.2 million is too little, and there will always be a day when it will be spent.
Although the current environment is the same as her mother's ghost hitting the wall, he still has to bite the bullet and raise money.
Like many entrepreneurs, he turned to Shengshi Investment, a private venture capital firm founded by the emerging billionaire Chen Ziyi, who not only successfully invested in Home Credit and China.com, but also because of his youth, his understanding and support of the Internet is unmatched by other entrepreneurs.
Robin also tried to contact the external office of Shengshi Group, hoping that he could meet Chen Zier in person.
It's just that there are too many such people, and Chen Zier can't see them, so he can only block them all at once.
And unlike other entrepreneurs who are purely seeking financial support, Robin once felt that Shengshi Investment was the most suitable investor for whiteness.
Because once the funds of Shengshi Investment are introduced, then the two tasks mentioned before can be solved almost simultaneously.
Shengshi has funds.
Shengshi can also take the line of Home Credit Network.
It couldn't be more perfect.
And Robin also believes that as long as he gives himself a chance, Baidu's technology will definitely be able to conquer Home Credit to use his own services.
The only question is whether Shengshi will invest in whiteness.
None of the Seven Gentlemen of Baidu could give him an answer to this question, and everyone didn't even dare to think about it.
"I just had a phone call with DFJ's manager Fu, and they are still hesitating, and IDG is also watching......" Every time I discuss this with Xu Yong, Robin's face is full of worry.
Xu Yong asked, "Is there still no news from Shengshi Investment?"
Robin let out a long sigh, "I didn't reply, and I don't even know if anyone else read our proposal." ”
"I heard that there is a company called Shengda Network that was introduced to Chen Zier by an acquaintance, and it is this key middleman that facilitated this investment.
Robin nodded contemplatively, "That's the way it is, but where can I find this middleman, you also know my character, I don't know so many people." ”
"Always try ......"
"It's not impossible for DFJ, they also have overseas backgrounds, and they will be more helpful to the company in the future. ”
……
……
China Shipping,
In the north campus of Hujiang University, where the spring forest is in full bloom, the sycamore is pressing, and the flowers and plants are planted, the shooting that lasted more than half a year has finally ended.
The passage of the last shot, followed by a cheer of 'finishing', followed by words like 'hard work, hard work'.
Luo Zhiyi breathed a long sigh of relief, and the pressure in her heart was suddenly relieved by her. She rubbed her neck, although she was not the number one female, she was a newcomer than a newcomer, so although the shots were a lot less than the starring role, she had to learn the rest of the time.
Gu Pan also came with her because of a certain natural curiosity about the crew, Luo Zhiyi didn't have any excitement, or a certain freshness of seeing stars, she just told her not to run around, and then saw that the people around the director were almost gone, and only then did she dare to go over, and said very politely: "Director Zhang, I've caused you trouble during this time, thank you for your patience and teaching." ”
The director is usually strict, but this time he is very kind, "It's not troublesome, I rarely see a girl who works as hard as you, I have a feeling that you will definitely become a climate in the future." ”
Luo Zhiyi smiled embarrassedly, "Then I'll borrow your auspicious words." ”
"Well, don't make it the same if we don't see each other in the future, and you're going to promote it with the group later. If you want to show your face, there will be media interviews, so you have to be prepared. ”
"Hey, will there be interviews with me?"
"Of course," the director said with a smile: "This is what Mr. Jin said personally, don't look at Shengshi Media as a new company, but think about the guests, it is also new, and now, as long as you contact Mr. Chen, it will definitely attract a lot of attention." ”
At this time, the male No. 3 came over and said eagerly: "Yes, besides, the director of this drama and everyone are so attentive, it will definitely be a big hit, Zhiyi, you don't have to worry." ”
His surname is Jiang, Jiang Yuhang, one meter and eight big brothers, with sharp edges and corners, quite handsome.
For Luo Zhiyi, the pressure of filming is too strange and too stressful, so many things have not had time to think about it.
"It's finished, Zhiyi, follow me and let's celebrate. ”
Director Zhang looked at all this with a smile, and his vicissitudes of life could roughly understand the meaning in Jiang Yuhang's eyes......
But he didn't speak at the moment, in fact, he was very unhappy to use Luo Zhiyi at first, it was too new, but some dances could be used, but she couldn't overcome her embarrassment in front of the camera, and negotiated with Mr. Jin several times, and in the end, maybe people had no choice, and told him directly, don't be long-winded,
This is the person Mr. Chen is going to use.
