Chapter Ninety-Nine: Sideways Footing

The bar that Chen Shijun picked is very stylish, with a dark environment and soft music, which makes people very relaxed.

"Brother Chen, you're drunk. ”

"No, I'm not drunk. ”

Lin Fan smiled, "Okay, you're not drunk." The words were full of good temper.

"Brother Nalin, can you agree to my proposal?"

Lin Fan couldn't help but groan when he saw that Chen Shijun kept asking, he didn't make a fool of Chen Shijun because he was drunk, but really thought about it for a long time, "Brother Chen, you know that investment is not decided based on emotional preferences, I can't give you a guarantee, but I can go and see your working environment first." ”

A person made a serious promise to the drunkard, this scene was inexplicably funny, Chen Shijun laughed, "I am relieved with Brother Lin's promise, let's continue to drink." ”

"You're already drunk, I'll send you back. Lin Fan didn't care about Chen Shijun's reluctance, paid the bill, and drove Chen Shijun home.

Lying on the bed, Chen Shijun suddenly opened his eyes, he was not drunk, it was obviously inappropriate to rashly seek investment matters, not to mention that he had only known Lin Fan for two days, but he saw Lin Fan's appearance just now, this is a steady person, maybe he will give himself a surprise, Chen Shijun secretly thought in his heart.

Back at the hotel, Lin Fan went to Liu Yifei's room to say hello first.

"Maybe we're leaving soon. ”

Liu Yifei's face was overjoyed, and then he realized, "You're about to succeed?"

Lin Fan raised his eyebrows, "That's it, don't look at whose handiwork?"

Liu Yifei leaned against the doorrail, his eyebrows were full of smiles, "Lin Fan, do you know how treacherous you look when you laugh now?"

Lin Fan touched his face, "Is there one?" and then said confidently, "I think it is more appropriate to describe it as Zhizhu in the grip." ”

"Well, you're the smartest. ”

After receiving Liu Yifei's praise, Lin Fan returned satisfied, maybe tomorrow will be a good day. Although Lin Fan didn't know that Chen Shijun was pretending to be drunk tonight, he had a feeling that Chen Shijun would definitely come to him.

The next day, Chen Shijun invited Lin Fan to visit his company, accompanied by Liu Yifei, for her, everything Lin Fan is doing now is so new.

"Mr. Lin, I was a little presumptuous last night, but now I will tell you about my product in person. ”

Lin Fan was stunned for a moment, Chen Shijun seemed to realize Lin Fan's surprise, and explained, "The reason for changing the title is because now that we are doing the right thing, I don't want to bring personal friendship to the next work." ”

"Mr. Chen, I'm looking forward to your introduction. ”

In the face of Lin Fan's attitude, Chen Shijun just smiled slightly, and the maturity and stability of the company's leaders were fully revealed, "Mr. Lin, you and Miss Liu will go to the office with me first, and I will introduce the company to you in detail." ”

"I'm looking forward to it. ”

"Tea or coffee?"

Lin Fan looked up at Liu Yifei, Liu Yifei was warmed by Lin Fan's carefulness, and then smiled, "Coffee." ”

"Same with her. ”

Chen Shijun's eyes flashed, and a simple sentence showed that the relationship between the two was average, maybe Liu Yifei would also be a breakthrough? This thought was just a flash, Chen Shijun set his eyes on Lin Fan, and the young man in front of him was not so easy to fool.

"Mr. Lin, YouTube is a video-sharing website that aims to allow users to upload, watch and share videos or short videos. The website uses Flash Video or HTML5 video to display a variety of video content created by the uploader, including movie clips, TV clips, music videos, etc., as well as other amateur videos made by the uploader, such as VLOGs, original videos, ......."

When he said this, Chen Shijun had been paying attention to Lin Fan's reaction, but Lin Fan's expression was really too bland, so flat that it made Chen Shijun feel worried.

"Mr. Lin, is there anything wrong?"

When Lin Fan heard this, he couldn't help but look down on Chen Shijun a little in his heart, you must first be confident in your company when you come to seek investment, and only if you blow the prospects of your company are good, you will get more favorable conditions. However, Lin Fan didn't expect that what is the current situation of YouTube, and how can Chen Shijun have too much confidence in this company?

"Mr. Chen, I hope you can provide some core data, such as the number of users, such as activity, I think you should understand what I mean. ”

Chen Shijun bit his lip, he naturally knew these data, but how could he say it? But Lin Fan was obviously not so easy to fool, "There are now more than 1,000 short films on the website, and the number of users cannot be counted. ”

Lin Fan's fingers tapped on the table, this was the performance of his thinking, "Even if we upload videos according to one person, it seems that your company's regular users are only more than a thousand people, right?"

Chen Shijun was silent, and then suddenly said as if he remembered something, "Sequoia Capital is willing to invest in our company, I think Mr. Lin should believe in Sequoia's vision." ”

"Although venture capital will evaluate the investment companies in advance, they still have the intention of casting a wide net and fishing more, and 3 million is just a drop in the bucket for them, just a little test of the water. Lin Fan looked at Chen Shijun with a smile, "Baidu start-up only got $2.5 million, but do you think YouTube can surpass Baidu?"

Chen Shijun naturally didn't dare to say certainly, and the atmosphere was silent for a while. Liu Yifei has been observing the reactions of the two on the side, she naturally knows that Lin Fan is very optimistic about YouTube, but now the disdain she shows is like this, but what she is most surprised by is that Lin Fan has no power to fight back against a person older than him, this is too strong, right?

Just when Liu Yifei was thinking nonsense, the door was suddenly opened, and Carl walked in directly, "Mr. Chen, I have already told the head office that the company is willing to continue to invest." Speaking of this, Carl deliberately looked at Lin Fan on the sofa, although he didn't like Chen Shijun, it didn't mean that he was a fool.

As a professional investor, controlling personal preferences is a compulsory course, and he will not hide from the company that Chen Shijun is eager to raise funds, and he will not only stop but also help, because he understands that only if he is good enough to leave here and go to a bigger stage.

However, Chen Shijun's mood was not so happy, "Carl, didn't anyone teach you to knock on the door before entering?"

Carl shrugged, American didn't care, "I just have good news to tell Mr. Chen, you know, exciting news always makes people excited." ”

"That's better good news. Chen Shijun gritted his teeth.

"Thank God, Sequoia is willing to invest seven million dollars, Mr. Chen, you must be a good Christian, God loves you very much. ”

Chen Shijun was a little stunned by this news, according to his budget, that is, he received three or four million financing from Lin Fan, but now he was a little moved. Another reason why he chose Lin Fan is that he hopes to be able to withdraw some of the money in the financing, but if the company can obtain Sequoia's $7 million financing, the company may not fly on the branches, and he is willing to give up his personal interests in the future and in the future!

However, Chen Shijun was not carried away by the joy, "Carl, how many shares are Sequoia going to ask?"

"Forty percent. Carl spat out the barrage of numbers.

In an instant, Chen Shijun's face turned red with anger, and his current shares were only forty-nine percent left, such a request was tantamount to taking away his company completely! The atmosphere in the room was a little strange, Lin Fan stood up and patted Chen Shijun on the shoulder, "Mr. Chen, it seems that you still have something, I'll go first, and we'll talk about it in detail later." ”

"No, I'll go with you. ”

"Oh?" Lin Fan's face was flat.

Liu Yifei felt powerless for a while when he saw this, God, it's really a loss for this person not to be an actor......
