Chapter 133: Departure, Two Things

Zhonghai in July was too hot, and Chen Zier felt uncomfortable being steamed when he went out, so he didn't want to go out more and more, and Shi Yangqing's kitten pudding was entrusted to Chen Zier by her owner.

He was lying on the sofa with Sheng Qianyu with his left hand, and playing with the kitten with his right hand, feeling that he had walked at the peak of his life in a daze.

The pudding is very sticky and cute, lying sideways on the sofa, holding Chen Zier's hand with both front paws, and the snoring is smooth and rhythmic.

Chen Zier said: "Why does she sleep all day long? I feel that life is much easier than ours. ”

Sheng Qianyu smiled: "Why are you still competing with cats?"

Chen Zier pouted and said: "Someone for her to eat, someone for her to drink, this is a pet, obviously it is the ancestor, you have to serve every day." ”

He complained boredly, and asked Sheng Qianyu again: "Have you sold a few more sets of network management software recently?"

She cocked up her triumphant fingers, "12 sets." ”

"Yo, then you're a little rich woman now. ”

She was much more cheerful and said with a smile, "I still feel like I'm in a dream." ”

She looked at Chen Zier's passport curiously and asked, "Are you really going to the United States?"

Chen Zier nodded, "Yes, go earn some wife." ”

Sheng Qianyu glanced at him, in fact, the little girl still has some yearning for the country on the other side of the ocean, in fact, there are many people who worship foreign countries in this year, and I don't know how many people want to go out and have a look.

So she said, "I want to go too." ”

Chen Zier didn't have any opinions, "As long as you can convince your mother to rest assured, let this big girl run away to another continent thousands of miles away." ”

Sheng Qianyu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "I have never been out of Zhonghai since I was a child. ”

"This is a pain in the face of a lot of people who are in college on this ground. ”

"I've told my mom that I've made a little money. ”

Chen Zier raised his head and asked, "Have you already said it?"

She nodded, "I went home that day, the temperature was 37 degrees, and my mother had to go out to set up a stall, so I felt that my daughter was quite unqualified, so I told her all of them, so that she didn't have to worry about money." She didn't believe it, and I took out nearly 30,000 yuan at once to startle her. I explained for a long time before she slowly accepted it. ”

"It's not a big deal, and my parents know that I have some business in Zhonghai. ”

Sheng Qianyu asked, "Then how long will you go?"

"I can't say, I'll be back when I'm done, it should be soon. ”

……

……

He went to the United States for two things:

First, find Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and try to get as many shares as possible, but it is difficult to get such a large amount of shares as Gitzo, and every financing of Google is extremely rational and maximizes the value of its shares.

In Chen Zier's impression, Larry Page is a thief, of course, mainly because of Google's own performance.

Compared with the sadness of most Internet companies, Google's rise is very smooth, and it can be said that it is easy to navigate.

It is inevitable that everything will be difficult at the beginning, but in 99 Google received an investment of 25 million US dollars, and began to make a profit three years after its establishment.

Page was a business genius who recognized early on the enormous impact of Wall Street on public companies.

For the CFOs of most public companies, their most important job is not to manage the company's finances well, but to do everything possible to convince Wall Street investors that our company has a future and can be profitable.

Then various investment banks and rating agencies on Wall Street gave him positive reviews to maintain the stability of his stock price.

So Page, who understands this, doesn't want to go public at all, because there are many advantages to the company's non-listing, such as no one from the outside world will know any business details of the company, and no one can interfere with any decisions of the company, which is very important, because your competitors will not know what your health is.

Google was profitable in 2001 when Yahoo was still losing money, and since then its profits and cash flow have grown very rapidly.

Google is not short of money at all, they don't need to go public, the reason why they go public is because the old US Securities and Exchange Commission stipulates that after more than 500 shareholders, even non-listed companies must disclose their financial status within 100 days of the second year.

Google announced the launch of its IPO on the last day of the deadline.

In addition, they designed a dual-share structure, minimized the underwriters' commissions at the time of listing, and raised funds in three tranches to ensure that the value of their shares was not undervalued......

Google's every step is enviable, but Chen Zier is not greedy enough to take 30 or 40 shares, and even if you get it, if you don't continue to contribute to Google, the two shrewd founders will always dilute your shares, and it is possible to dilute to the end with single digits, Zuckerberg did just that, and the co-founder of Facebook, the original second largest shareholder, was basically kicked out by him in the end.

The second thing: he's going to disgust apples.

In fact, it's still for money, but the value may not be as high as Google's shares, but it's critical.

It's a patent, it's called Multi-Touch, and everyone knows how important this technology is to the iPhone, and when the iPhone wasn't so powerful in the beginning, multi-touch was one of the most functional features of that phone.

Jobs himself also highlighted the technology at the press conference.

But this patent was not developed by Apple's in-house technicians, who bought it to be precise.

The technology was invented in 1998 by two University of Delaware technicians, John Elias and Wayne Westerman, who filed a full patent for it, and subsequently formed a company to operate the technology, which is also aptly named: Finger Works.

With your fingers, that's enough.

In 2005, Apple bought the small company, where Chen remembers seeing it, and the purchase price was more than $100 million.

However, at the end of the 90s, the popular touch screen products were almost all LCD single-touch products, and multi-touch technology was invented, but the hardware technology could not be reached, resulting in this technology not being applied to any mature and cheap products.

To put it bluntly, the market prospect can't be seen at all, your cattle belong to you, you cattle, others can't use it!

Until 2000, the two founders were still worried, looking for investment everywhere, and then slowly came into contact with companies like Apple and Microsoft.

Chen Zier came back from rebirth and was afraid that he would forget the details of "The Biography of Jobs" he had read, so he wrote these things in his notebook.

He may not be impressed by the names of foreigners, but he remembers the University of Delaware, and Finger Works remembers it, and that's enough.

It is still very important to get some votes, that is, he can't remember when the ruble depreciated in 98 and to what extent, otherwise he would want to sit on that flying car.

Who thinks they have a lot of money?

Yang Runling came to his home as a guest later, mainly to discuss the establishment of an investment company, which had been discussed earlier.

Chen Zier told her: "I know that there are many advantages to registering an offshore company, and my idea is that we will take this approach to Shengshi Investment. ”

Yang Runling nodded and said: "Yes, there are some countries and regions in the world, such as Samoa, Macao, and the Cayman Islands, which have many advantages in terms of tax rates. ”

The main reason is that the inflow and outflow of funds and the protection of legal person's information are relatively good.

Chen Zier nodded, "I'm going to the United States this time, let's choose the Cayman Islands, which is closest to the United States, you take the first step, come to Stanford University in California to find me after registration, and we will contact you by email." Lao Mei has a certain degree of Chinese discrimination, so you have to be transparent about the legal issues involved in the investment process. By the way, the language communication ......"

Yang Runling smiled confidently, "I am a well-known diligent student in the school, and I have been studying and communicating with international students in the school since my freshman year. And although I don't have a lawyer's license in the United States, I know the laws of California. ”

Chen Zier could already feel Lawyer Yang's upward backbone, and what impressed him was that she didn't just think about it in her dreams, she had put it into action, and in this sense, she was also a great talent.

Yang Runling asked again: "How much are you going to contribute?"

"$2 million. ”

She was shocked when she heard this, this is more than 160 million yuan, right? When we first met, didn't we talk about millionaires? Why is it 10 million?

"2 million...... Is it dollars?"

"Yes. and Shi Yangqing no longer invests, but she still joins Shengshi Investment, and you and Cai Zhaoxi will each have 0.3% of the shares as founders. ”

The proportion of shares is very low, but according to his investment rhythm, the absolute value in the future must not be low.

Yang Runling didn't expect it, and asked: "I didn't pay any money and still have shares?"

"I'm afraid you'll say I'm a black-hearted capitalist. ”

Yang Runling chuckled, "How is this possible." ”

Shengshi Investment has to copy the bottom of many giant companies, and the shares cannot be given indiscriminately. But Chen Zier will not give nothing at all, there is more help for the righteous and less help for the unjust, and you have to leave soup for people when you eat meat.

So......

"Let's get started. ”
