Realizing that Bian Xuedao's target was the entire Happy Net, the hairs on Cheng Hao's body stood up.

Once the bet fails, Youdao Investment Group will hold 51% of the shares of Kaixin.com, no more, no less, exactly 51%!

This is definitely not a coincidence, this is a deliberate VAM agreement, and the plot is the control of Kaixin.com.

Cheng Hao especially wanted to get up and leave, and slammed the door of Bian Xuedao's office by the way to express his dissatisfaction, but he restrained himself.

Taking a few deep breaths, Cheng Hao said word by word: "Actually, in the first round of financing, I think 5 million US dollars is enough." ”

Bian Xuedao listened and smiled very brightly, he turned back and pointed to the project plan book of Happy Net on his desk and said, "That's not what is written in your plan book. ”

Cheng Hao had a tangled look on his face.

Bian Xuedao said with a relaxed face: "In the opinion of my investment team, since you value a seed project to $30 million, it shows that you must be very confident in this project, I think...... Your confidence will not only be reflected in valuation, but also in the prospects of the project. Also, seriously, I don't think the 30% compound growth rate indicator is not high, but very low. Mr. Cheng, you don't have to worry too much at all, this VAM agreement not only protects the interests of investors, but also has an incentive effect on the happy management, and the essence of the agreement is to pursue a win-win situation. ”

Bian Xuedao said that Cheng Hao was indisputable.

The main thing is to learn the truth of the Tao.

A shadowless website with a valuation of $30 million, and a $10 million investment is only exchanged for 36% equity.

I am full of confidence when valuation, but I am impotent when I bet on the development prospects, which doesn't make sense!

Cheng Hao was silent for a while, got up and said, "Mr. Bian, I'll go back and think about it, and I'll give you an answer within 48 hours." ”

Bian Xuedao stood up from the sofa with a smile, and Chong Cheng Hao stretched out his right hand.

Holding his hands together, he said, "Everyone has a different position, I hope you can understand." In any case, I am personally optimistic about your project, and I sincerely hope that Kaixin.com can embark on an SNS road that meets the needs of the domestic environment and netizens. ”

Cheng Hao held Bian Xuedao's hand and said, "Can you always send me a word before parting." ”

Bian Xuedao withdrew his hand, turned his head to look at the sky outside the window, looked back at Cheng Hao and said: "Think about the side of failure in everything, you can bear failure, and of course you are very happy to succeed...... Encourage you. ”

………………

Sending Cheng Hao away, Bian Xuedao sat back at the desk, thought for a few minutes, and said to the secretary according to the internal line: "Let Mr. Wu come to my office, and Huo Dongfeng." ”

Soon, there was a knock at the door.

"Enter!"

Wu Sijie and Huo Dongfeng walked in one after the other.

Huo Dongfeng is an investment manager recruited by Wu Sijie, less than 40 years old, handsome and elegant, dignified, and well-known in the circle.

Seeing that the two of them had arrived, Bian Xuedao pointed to the reception area and said, "Go and sit over there and talk." ”

The gambling agreement between Bian Xuedao and Cheng Haoti just now was specifically designed by Wu Sijie and Huo Dongfeng, so Bian Xuedao wanted to hear the thoughts of the two.

Listening to Bian Xuedao say Cheng Hao's reaction just now, Wu Sijie nodded and said: "This is not unexpected, 51% equity is a lifeline for all business founders, unless he wants to cash out and run." ”

After speaking, Wu Sijie turned sideways and asked Huo Dongfeng: "Dongfeng, do you think Cheng Hao will agree?"

Huo Dongfeng said calmly: "I will agree, but I am not optimistic about the long-term prospects of Kaixin.com." ”

Bian Xuedao became interested: "You talk about it." ”

Huo Dongfeng said: "I investigated Cheng Hao's entrepreneurial team through guò relations, and the results showed that in addition to him, Happy Company lacked an auxiliary deputy, and the rest of the team members were technicians, and a considerable number of these people were Cheng Hao's subordinates when he was in XL. ”

Speaking of this, Huo Dongfeng paused, and then said: "The most important thing is that the company has been established, and there are no people, and it is still that set of people. ”

Wu Sijie chimed in: "This is indeed a problem. For a successful company, the management must be multidimensional. If the team is not replenished in time and the experts in operation, product, market, HR and other aspects are added, the one-dimensional management team will definitely end up with a bloody head. ”

Huo Dongfeng nodded and said, "Yes." The advantages of engineer-led enterprises are strong technical ability, the ability to quickly develop products, and the spirit to carry to the end when encountering difficulties

God. But the disadvantage is the pursuit of absolute correctness, the blind pursuit of perfection, and the lack of adaptability of rapid trial and error and rapid error correction......"

Seeing that Bian Xuedao only listened and didn't speak, Wu Sijie opened his mouth and said, "I just got a message. ”

Bian Xuedao asked, "What news?"

Wu Sijie said: "Kaixin." The domain name for .com has been registered by someone else, and the owner is asking for $40,000. Cheng Hao has kaixin. The person with the com domain name contacted him, but he didn't talk about it, and he chose kaixin001 that he registered. com as the domain name of Kaixin.com. ”

And what's going on?

Seeing that Bian Xuedao narrowed his eyes and thought, Wu Sijie pressed one hand on the coffee table and said in a deep voice: "Anyway, the games of Kaixin.com are copied from Facebook, if Cheng Hao refuses to cooperate, we can buy kaixin." com domain name, do it yourself. ”

Huo Dongfeng answered: "I agree with Mr. Wu's suggestion. ”

Bian Xuedao habitually took out a cigarette, put it under his nose and smelled it, and said, "Tell me the reason." ”

Huo Dongfeng has not joined Youdao Group for a long time, but after several contacts, he has adapted to the leadership style of Bian Xuedao, he said bluntly: "The Internet industry is the most ruthless! Even if you have more than 100 million users yesterday, and a popular new product appears today, users will leave you in an instant, and the company's valuation will plummet." ”

"I saw him rise up a tall building, I saw him feast guests, and I saw his building collapse. In recent years, many examples have shown that the Internet industry is a thousand times more realistic and 10,000 times more cruel than the entertainment industry. Outdated stars in the entertainment industry can rely on a few songs from the past to travel around the county and the annual meeting of small and medium-sized enterprises to earn some living expenses, while outdated websites are difficult to get attention even if they bow their heads and humbly provide free services, because many people have forgotten about their registered accounts. ”

Seeing that the two CEOs listened very carefully, Huo Dongfeng, who knew that the opportunity was rare, continued: "The founding team of Kaixin.com has hidden dangers, but it cannot be denied that this project has a certain market value. If the happy network is really popular after it is launched, it will definitely have an impact on the Weibo project of the group's subsidiary, and as for the intensity of the impact, it is impossible to judge now. ”

"My idea is that it is not difficult to open a small game for Weibo and build a farm to grab a parking space. And Kaixin.com sets up speech interaction and repost functions, and it is also easy to build an interpersonal network. Therefore, Weibo and Kaixin.com, one is Zhuge Liang and the other is Zhou Yu, who are born opponents. Now that you already know the storage of the happy network, you can either hold it in your hand or strangle it in the cradle, and you can't be soft. ”

It's quiet in the office, and you can hear a pin drop.

Bian Xuedao closed his eyes, kneading the cigarette in his hand back and forth, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said: "Dongfeng, don't be an investment manager, Yanjing Branch lacks a deputy general manager, you will take office tomorrow." Also, the domain name of the kaixin, contact me immediately and buy it. ”

………………

The Ritz-Carlton, Yenching is on the basement level.

The pool is not big, so I swam ten times in one breath, got out of the water, found a wide recliner to lie down, put a bath towel around my waist, and quietly enjoyed the black and white movie "Roman Holiday" that was playing on the huge screen opposite.

He stayed at The Ritz-Carlton because he liked the ambiance of the hotel's indoor pool. Pale green spotlights illuminate the pool, and there is a bulk between each of the two lounge areas to ensure privacy. And the most special thing is the huge screen hanging on the side of the pool, the black and white old movie and the emerald green clubhouse pool, creating a strong nostalgic atmosphere.

At this time, Bian Xuedao watched movies, but thought about business.

He was thinking about Happy Net, and he was also thinking about Huo Dongfeng's words in the afternoon.

If Cheng Hao agrees to cooperate and agrees to gamble, then it is easy to say, because he holds 36% of the shares, even if he is not a major shareholder, he has the right to speak, at least he can exert influence on the strategic direction of Kaixin.com, avoid the confrontation between Kaixin.com and Zhiwei Weibo, and if he gets it right, he can also achieve strategic complementarity.

In Bian Xuedao's heart, he hopes to see this result, because it is in line with his "original intention" of supporting a number of small and medium-sized emerging enterprises with development potential, allowing more people to embark on the road of entrepreneurship and achieve a win-win situation.

And if Cheng Hao refuses, in view of the "mutual attributes" of Kaixinwang and Zhiwei Weibo, Bian Xuedao will not have the benevolence of a woman, and he will personally strangle Kaixinwang and make it "happy".

This is the mall, just like the battlefield.

Just as he was thinking, a woman who was diving in the pool suddenly floated up, put her hands on the edge of the pool in front of Bian Xuedao, and the woman stretched out a hand to him and said, "I have leg cramps, please pull me up." ”
