Chapter 255: A Word Comes Together
It's the best of times, and it's the worst of times. This is the age of wisdom and the age of foolishness. This is a time of faith, but also a time of doubt. This is the season of light and the season of darkness.
Lin Fan likes the beginning of A Tale of Two Cities, which is an era of self-pursuit and self-affirmation. So no matter how much incredible it is, it is a matter of course, such as the newly established Mortal Mall that is popular.
When Lin Fan released the news that Mortal Mall was going to launch its first round of financing, this was undoubtedly a big earthquake in the investment world. What is the mortal mall now? This is a cash cow! It can make sales of nearly three billion yuan a day now, but what about it in the future? I can't imagine it, it can be said that as long as we invest now, we will definitely get several times or even dozens of times the return.
Venture capital, such as SoftBank, has always preferred to be included in the second round of financing, because the first round of financing has proven the value of the company, and the second round of financing can not only obtain more shares, but also reduce investment risks. But this time, the head of SoftBank Asia came to the door early and directly made an offer of $2.5 billion.
But this is just the beginning, Goldman Sachs, Sequoia, and even Golden International, Lin Fan's old friends all came to the door, and everyone made up their minds to win this financing, especially Lin Fan's decision to take out 10% of the shares, which made everyone cheer up. At present, Lin Fan holds 100% of the shares of Mortal Mall, and as long as he takes more than 5% of the shares, he can become the second largest shareholder of Mortal Mall, which also means that he will have a place on the board of directors.
The media also paid special attention to this financing, after all, the glory created by the Mortal Mall has not been long in coming, and everyone is looking forward to how much the Mortal Mall will quote in the end, but some people scold Lin Fan, such as Fan Gang, such as Robin Li, these are Lin Fan's good friends.
Mortal Mall is in full swing, and with its own profits there is no shortage of funds at all, as for the staking does not care, a carnival has started the name of Mortal Mall, enough to overshadow all e-commerce, and when the network has laid a particularly good foundation before, whether it is logistics or self-management. It can be said that Lin Fan does not need financing at all.
It's not just Lin Fan's good friends who are puzzled, in fact, venture capitalists are also a little incomprehensible, but it doesn't matter, for them, even if there is a trap in front of them, they have to jump into it, after all, the prospect is too tempting.
Chu Chu's family, since Chu Chu ran away from home, Chu Feng has completely strengthened his heart, he must match Lin Fan and his daughter, he has always been full of apologies for his daughter, it is rare for his daughter to have someone she likes, he must help her daughter.
"Lao Chu, what are you looking at?"
Chu Feng pointed to the computer in front of him, "I'm watching the news about Lin Fan." ”
Gao Ya suddenly became angry when he heard this, "What does he have to look at?"
Chu Feng dragged his wife into his arms, and his elegant face suddenly turned red, "It's all old husbands and wives, don't mess up." Chu Feng smiled, this is also Chu Chu is not at home, otherwise he wouldn't dare, "Don't move yet, you can see it, this young man is very capable." ”
Gao Ya couldn't break free, so she had to follow her husband's temperament, to be honest, she also liked her husband's occasional domineering, and the news on the computer quickly attracted Gao Ya's attention:
At present, the youngest billionaire in China, Lin Fan's Mortal Mall has ushered in the first round of financing, and the company that created the carnival miracle is being wildly sought after by venture capital, and SoftBank has given a valuation of $3 billion.......
At present, the mortal mall is being popular, so how much is his owner Lin Fan worth? It is reported that Lin Fan is basically in absolute control of his company, and the valuation of mortal security is more than 1.5 billion US dollars..... According to the current valuation of three billion US dollars in the Mortal Mall, Lin Fan's worth has exceeded four billion US dollars......
"He's so good?"
"Of course, you don't look at how good your daughter is, and how bad the son-in-law you found for us can be. Speaking of this, Chu Feng pointed to a piece of news and said, "Look here, Lin Fan's cinema chain has now entered the Golden Harvest Company, and his cinema chain will become the leading cinema chain in Asia, Golden Harvest, do you know, it is the company that made Bruce Lee popular and Jackie Chan, that is a legend in the Chinese film industry, and now it has become our son-in-law." ”
Gao Ya was speechless, but she was not very angry, even if she was angry in front of her husband, she would not have an obvious attack, "The more capable he is, the less I will agree to Chu Chu being with him." ”
"Why?" Chu Feng looked puzzled, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you, even if the two young people are a little impulsive, but they are happy with each other, Lin Fan is also willing to be responsible, and we should be able to understand it as adults." ”
"Do you think I'm an antique?"
"What about you?"
Gao Ya suddenly felt a little sad, "Have you forgotten about my father and mother?"
Chu Feng was suddenly stunned, and he instantly seemed to understand what his wife was doing. Gao Ya said a little lonely at this time: "At the beginning, my father was also a capable person, but my mother only wanted to be with him for the rest of his life, but his heart was too wild, and he left me and my mother directly and never returned......" Chu Feng knew that his wife was also a hard-working person, and hugged his wife's waist to show comfort, Gao Ya's voice was a little low," My mother died after a lifetime of suffering, so I swear that whether I am still my child, when I look for someone in the future, I will never look for an ambitious one, and the most important thing is that the two of them will be together with Meimei for a lifetime. ”
"Wife, how do I feel that you are saying that I have no ambitions?"
"The well-known archaeological experts in China still have no ambitions? The main thing is that you are honest, but what about Lin Fan? Gao Ya's eyes revealed wisdom, "We don't want money, why hang ourselves on his tree?"
"I don't think Lin Fan is that kind of person, he is very good to his daughter. ”
"Even if he is good to his daughter, can he always be by his daughter's side? Every day he can't finish his own affairs, does he still have time to talk to his daughter? It's okay to be in love now, but when he gets married? Will it still be like this?"
.......
At this time, Lin Fan was leisurely drinking coffee, but Ma Yun on the other side smiled bitterly, "Lao Lin, how do I feel cheated by you? Now that the market value of mortals has risen to three billion US dollars, are these venture capitalists crazy?"
Lin Fan smiled, a few days ago, Lin Fan and Ma Yun made a bet to announce the news of mortal financing, and the market value of the swap shares between mortals and Ali will be determined by venture capitalists, and now the market value of venture capital has exceeded the price given by Ma Yun.
"I'm more concerned about whether SoftBank and Yahoo are willing to give up 10 percent of their shares?"
"Management will give three percent, and they're not going to want to? But are you sure that the market value is not enough to make up for it in cash? You're probably going to have to pay a billion dollars. ”
Lin Fan avoided Ma Yun's question, but picked up the coffee cup and walked to the window, where he could see the endless stream of venture capital representatives, he liked this feeling very much, he could set off all kinds of storms with one thought, and one news could make people flock to it!
"Mr. Ma, do you believe that mortals' shares will soar?"
