Chapter 107: Where the Baby

The modern city is a steel city, watered by steel and concrete, and from the day it was born, it was destined to be a little less warm and a little more cold. In such an environment, people want to have a sense of belonging, they want to leave their own traces in the city, so many people choose to buy a house, but some choose to become famous.

Lin Fan chose the latter, so he knew that his path was destined not to be smooth sailing, some people would laugh at him, and some people would say NO. But then again, if success is really that easy, then success is not very attractive.

Lin Fan leaned back in his office chair, sorting out his thoughts, Lei Jun's refusal was both expected and unexpected. Lin Fan thought that Lei Jun would refuse, but he didn't expect Lei Jun to refuse so directly.

Historically, in August 06, Kingsoft will receive $72 million investment from GIC, Intel Investment and New Macro Innovation Fund, while GIC holds 20.73% of the shares, Intel and New Macro Innovation are 4.15% respectively, which means that Kingsoft is valued at $240 million, and Kingsoft's main business is online games, office and antivirus software, of which online games are the main source of income, accounting for 68% of total revenue, and office only accounts for 5% , Lin Fan felt that he was very sincere in giving an offer of 13 million US dollars.

But he didn't understand why Lei Jun still held on to WPS, WPS was indeed brilliant, in the six years from 1989 to 1994, WPS occupied more than 90% of the Chinese market share. At that time, there was no Word on the computers of the Chinese people, only WPS designed for Chinese documents. However, in 1995, Microsoft made a strong landing in China, the virgin land of the Internet. Under the situation of "foreign moons are always rounder" at that time, the "domestic" WPS began to be no longer beautiful.

It was not until this year that WPS's market share in China reached 18 percent, which is undoubtedly a chicken rib for Jinshan.

Lin Fan couldn't guess what Lei Jun and Jin Shan thought, but he believed that the reason why the transaction was not established was that the bargaining chips of the transaction were not enough, and he already knew what Lei Jun wanted, and what was missing was to tell Lei Jun at the right time.

While Lin Fan was thinking, Xu Sheng came to the office, "Mr. Lin, we have solved the technical problems about the skin payment port, but I still can't understand why you attach so much importance to the skin of the input method, the profit here is simply low." ”

Lin Fan shook his head, "The drunkard doesn't mean to drink, what really matters is the Fan Baby Payment Co., Ltd. that I am going to establish." ”

"Mortal baby?"

"Online payments are bound to become a trend, and I have to plan ahead of time. ”

Xu Sheng just nodded, and didn't say much, Fan Baobao is obviously a new company that Lin Fan is going to establish, he is not suitable to speak, and Lin Fan is not ready to explain more, now that online payment is just emerging, who can understand the prevalence of mobile phone payment in later generations.

That being the case, how could Lin Fan make Jack Ma's Alipay exclusive and beautiful, which is a wealth with a market value of hundreds of billions of dollars. The development of Alipay is not smooth, it was established as early as 04 years, but it will not be until 08 years to launch a convenient business that can pay for water and electricity, 10 years will be able to cooperate with banks to bind bank cards, and in 13 years will be known to the public because of Yu Bao.

Lin Fan has made a lot of efforts to cultivate his own users before, so the first product that Lin Fan wants to incubate with a huge number of users is Fan Baobao, a third-party payment platform, and the close relationship with the president of ICBC is also for the realization of his plan, and the skin payment of the input method is only the first step he has taken.

Seeing that Lin Fan didn't speak, Xu Sheng mentioned another task, "Mr. Lin, regarding the expansion of the company's capital, I have already sent a note to it, and representatives of Goldman Sachs Capital and IDG will arrive tomorrow." ”

"Didn't they turn their faces this time?"

"They just want an explanation. ”

Lin Fan laughed, "I have enough explanations here. ”

In fact, Lin Fan is also very helpless to expand the company's share capital, the company's cash on the books is only three million US dollars, and it is still 10 million US dollars away from the acquisition of WPS, Lin Fan has mortgaged 40% of the shares, ICBC will not lend again, so Lin Fan wants to initiate the acquisition There are only two ways to solve the problem of capital sources, the first is to launch a B round of financing, and the second is to inject funds into himself.

Obviously, Lin Fan will only choose to inject funds by himself, so other shareholders must also follow, otherwise they will be diluted. Previously, the registered capital of mortal security was only one million, but this time Lin Fan is ready to increase the registered capital of mortals to eighty million in one fell swoop, and according to the shares, Lin Fan must come up with more than 60 million yuan.

Fortunately, there were still 6 million US dollars in the last loan, plus Lin Fan still had more than 10 million in his hands, and the box office of the movie's crazy stone has reached more than 20 million, and it is not a problem to break through 30 million, and he can finally get about 14 million. The funds in Lin Fan's hands are just enough to invest, and Lin Fan has become a poor egg again, as for the future, if Twitter's CEO Jack comes to Lin Fan for investment, Lin Fan can't take care of it.

Even if Lin Fan made a big deal this time, no matter how he paid the money, it was not a pleasant thing, but Lin Fan was confident that he would persuade these venture capitalists to willingly follow him and pay for it.

Looking at his watch, the time was already eleven o'clock at noon, Lin Fan walked out of the office building and staggered towards the office building of Jinshan, the headquarters of Jinshan is also located in Zhongguancun, only ten minutes away from the Blue Sky Building. As for why he said he was leaving, Lin Fan was about to become a pauper, and his desire to buy a car was about to be shattered again.

Entering the Jinshan Building, Lin Fan didn't go to the office floor, just stood in the lobby and chatted with the two girls at the front desk, these two girls are already familiar with Lin Fan these days, and they know what Lin Fan's purpose is, of course, the reason for Lin Fan's enthusiasm is that he once overheard Lei Jun say that Lin Fan is a billionaire.

While chatting here, Lei Jun walked out of the elevator, Lin Fan said sorry and hurriedly greeted him, "Mr. Lei, you finally got off work, go, I'll invite you to dinner." ”

Lei Jun smiled bitterly, how could he forget this kid? These days, Lin Fan sneaks to the Jinshan headquarters at noon every day to block himself, as for why, he knows it. can stretch out his hand and not hit the smiling person, and Lin Fan will also do things, invite himself to eat and never go to high-end places, he seems to know that he is busy with work, and he usually solves it close to Zhongguancun, and he only has a lunch, and he never mentions anything else.

"Mr. Lin, if I don't know the inside story, I still think you have taken a fancy to our company's front desk. ”

"Only a big company like Kingsoft can have such a beautiful front desk. ”

Lin Fan didn't seem to be able to see the wry smile on the corner of Lei Jun's mouth, and his face was enthusiastic, "Mr. Lei, let's go, let's eat in a different place this time." ”

Lei Jun fell, Lin Fan laughed secretly in his heart, the strong girl was also afraid of pestering Lang, not to mention Lei Jun's temperament, of course, Lin Fan had no fear because of the information in his hands, and now it was just to let Lei Jun get used to himself, be familiar with himself, and cultivate a good impression......
