McGovern said to Zhang Chen sincerely: "Zack, you are the most talented investor and entrepreneur I have ever met. IDG and IDG China need talent like you, and I can offer you the same conditions as Hugo. If you can join the IDG, it doesn't matter whether you have civil capacity, your shares can be held by the person you designate. ”

Zhang Chen hesitated: "Mr. McGovern, thank you very much for your appreciation, but the matter is big, I have to think about it before I can reply." ”

McGovern regretted: "Okay, but you must believe in our sincerity, and if you want, we can talk about the investment of aliens first, and help the aliens move faster to the expansion channel." ”

Zhang Chen smiled: "Thank you, but now the aliens don't need external investment for the time being, and our cash flow is very healthy." Moreover, in the short term, we are still considering bank loans for financing. ”

McGovern laughed, "Okay, our genius boy seems to have a lot of confidence in his company, but you can always contact Hugo if you need financing." I've got something urgent, so let's go first, Hugo, you and Zack talk more. ”

Zhang Chen and Xiong Xiaoge put McGovern in the car and returned to the café, and the two were silent for a while.

Xiong Xiaoge smiled: "Zhang Chen, are you interested in attending a party with me for a while? Mainly some Chinese who have started a business in Silicon Valley." ”

Zhang Chen was interested: "Oh, when, who are there?"

Xiong Xiaoge said with a smile: "I don't know too much, I just arrived in San Francisco yesterday, and a friend in China introduced me that there are several Chinese entrepreneurs here who are looking for investment. ”

Zhang Chen said curiously: "Oh? Then I really want to go and see it." ”

Xiong Xiaoge picked up the bag, "Okay, then let's go, it's not far from here." ”

Zhang Chen took Xiong Xiaoge's car, turned around, and arrived at a two-story house in Palo Alto.

The protagonists of the party were several middle-aged men in their thirties and forties, and a bearded man greeted him from afar. "Oh, Mr. Xiong, I'm waiting for you. ”

When Xiong Xiaoge saw this beard, he was surprised: "Yingzi, why are you? Didn't you say that Chinese students are looking for investment in entrepreneurship?"

The bearded man smiled proudly: "I'm also an international student, although I'm a little older." ”

Xiong Xiaoge shook his head, "I knew it was a few of you, so I wouldn't have come." By the way, let me introduce you, this little brother is Zhang Chen, who has recently become popular in Silicon Valley, and his English name is Zack. ICQ's major shareholder, ICQ knows, right? A few days ago, Sequoia just invested 20 million. Zhang Chen, this bearded man is called Wu Ying, you can be careful not to be fooled by him. ”

Wu Ying's eyes lit up, "Oh, hey, the hero is a teenager, look at our age, we all live to dogs." It's too hot outside, let's go inside and talk. ”

Zhang Chen was a little ridiculous, this Wu Ying was completely familiar, with a big beard covering his chin, he looked very familiar, and it was estimated that he would also be a ruthless person in later generations.

Come to think of it, those who got involved in Silicon Valley entrepreneurship at this time will basically become bigwigs in the future.

At this time, there were already six or seven people in the living room, all of whom were Wu Ying's age, and Zhang Chen became the youngest participant among them.

Wu Ying enthusiastically helped Xiong Xiaoge and Zhang Chen introduce them, Zhang Chen looked at most of them and felt familiar, but he couldn't remember what these people were doing in the later life.

But as soon as he heard the name, Zhang Chen had a wit in his heart, Zhou Shaoning, bearded Wuying, Lu Hongliang, Huang Xiaoqing, Xue Cunhe, isn't this TM the dream team of UT.

When Wu Ying introduced a middle-aged man who looked less than forty, he put his arm around Zhang Chen's shoulders and said, "We all call this old man Lao Hua." ”

Lao Hua took a bite of Beijing films, "Your uncle, you are a good girl, Lao Tzu's surname is Xue." ”

Wu Ying smiled: "Yes, yes, Lao Hua is talking about your character, not your surname." After that, he introduced Xiong Xiaoge: "He is our angel investor, invested 250,000 US dollars in us last year, worked in SoftBank before, and is working with Lao Lu to help us contact SoftBank's investment." ”

Lao Xue stretched out his hand and shook hands with Xiong Xiaoge, "Xue Biqun, now do some small business with Cheap Nei, you can advise me more." ”

Zhang Chen looked at the beautiful woman standing beside Xue Biqun, and the other party also smiled politely at him.

Xiong Xiaoge shook his head at Wu Ying and said: "When I was in the capital, I looked at your things, not for me, if you are engaged in switching, it is still a bit interesting." But when it comes to PHS in the future, to be honest, the technology is too backward, and I'm not optimistic. ”

Wu Ying was not angry, he still had the same smile on his face, "Brother Xiong, no matter how backward PHS is, our country is not wrong." Moreover, although GSM has taken root, the cost is very high, and we think there is still hope. ”

Xiong Xiaoge sighed, and suddenly remembered, "By the way, aren't you looking for SoftBank, Lao Lu is still good friends with Son Zhengyi, what's the matter?

Wu Ying said stupidly: "Originally, I had already negotiated with Son Zhengyi a few months ago, and the $30 million would arrive in a few months, and we could announce the success of the financing first." As a result, last month, he transferred another $80 million of liquidity to Webvan, and he said to wait a little longer on our side. But how can you wait, the domestic factories are about to open, and if the funds can't come in, the cash flow will be cut off. ”

Zhang Chen suddenly asked next to him, "Brother Wu, how much investment do you need?"

Wu Ying's eyes lit up, ICQ just took 20 million US dollars from Sequoia, Zhang Chen is also well-known in Silicon Valley, if he is willing to help, although the funds are limited, but the flies are small and meat.

"Son was going to invest $30 million at the beginning, which is 30 percent of us. But now with $25 million, we should be able to do the rest of the work first. Wu Ying blinked his triangular eyes and looked at Zhang Chen expectantly.

Zhang Chen thoughtfully, "25 million US dollars。。。。。。 ”

Xiong Xiaoge was startled, and hurriedly pulled Zhang Chen aside, "Brother, don't be impulsive, this is not a small amount of money." And among these people, Lu Hongliang still does something a little, and the others are big fools. For example, I have heard of him in China just now. The second generation of officials, but it seems that they are not doing well in the country, and later they soaked in the daughter-in-law of a corrupt official who fled here, and then pitted the son of the corrupt official, gaining both people and money. If you cooperate with them, be careful that there are no bones left to eat. ”

Zhang Chen smiled and said, "Brother Xiong, I understand, don't worry." It's just that I think what Wu Ying said has some truth, we can really take a look at it again. ”

Returning to Wu Ying's side, Zhang Chen said to Wu Ying: "Brother Wu, I basically understood what you said just now. But if you want this to happen, in addition to the financing you need, the domestic policies must also be opened, I don't know how you are preparing in this regard?"

Wu Ying gave Zhang Chen a thumbs up, "Brother, you can count on it." Before, my brother thought that it was shit luck for you to earn so much in this grade, but now it seems that I am clumsy. ”
