Chapter 194 US Imperialist FCC Certification
Think about 123, when it was sold to Baidu in 04, it sold 50 million in cash, and of course part of Baidu's equity, as for how much, Su Jingzhen doesn't know, but it is definitely not 5%, because Baidu's annual financial statements are not disclosed. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
And now it is easy to search, if the valuation of the first round of financing is not lower than that of Yahoo, then according to the calculation of four million US dollars, it is also more than 30 million soft sister coins, this is still the first round, and there are two more rounds behind, plus the official listing, if everything goes well, the profit brought to Su Jingzhen by this website will easily exceed 100 million US dollars.
And technically speaking, this kind of web navigation website does not need too high-end technology, it needs word-of-mouth and the number of users, so Su Jingzhen will not have too much reluctance to this website from the bottom of his heart.
"What about Sequoia? is that the price?" asked Joanna about another investor's offer.
"I haven't said much over there, but I have to come to the door to negotiate. Su Jingzhen shrugged his shoulders, now he is standing on the active side, he doesn't care about those financiers, first of all, he is not short of money, and secondly, now that Citi has intervened, then some well-informed investors will be moved, although Sequoia is also a large investment institution, but there are also those with its size, such as Goldman Sachs, Morgan and so on.
"I think you should put it off, according to your own judgment, if Netscape is a great success, then the valuation of the companies related to the network will increase when they raise funds, it's best not to worry, you're not bad for money, right? "Su Jingzhen has been in the United States for almost a year, and Joanna has not been a fool of her life in this year, especially in her business judgment, she has made great progress.
"Well, let's get in touch first, isn't Netscape already on the roadshow, it's estimated that it will be on the market around August, let's wait two months to see. Su Jingzhen also thought so in his heart, and it was precisely because of the extremely successful listing of Netscape that the curtain was opened for the outbreak of Meditech's Internet stocks.
Since even Joanna can judge the future situation, there is no reason for her to rush to bring in investors, although this judgment is based on Su Jingzhen's point of view.
"By the way, my family's cassette walkman has been successfully trial-produced, so the next thing to apply for certification, is it better for you to do it or directly find an agent?" Su Jingzhen remembered the Tianxing Walkman, if you want to sell electronic products in the United States, you must apply for UL certification and FCC certification.
"Leave it to the agent, these things are very troublesome, not only need to certify the product itself, but also the power plug, drive power supply and the like need to be certified before they can be marketed, I can't do so much alone. "Joanna is just a lawyer, not an omnipotent god, so sometimes she can't do it.
"Well, by the way, even VCD can apply for certification. Su Jingzhen nodded, now that Joanna has a part-time legal counsel and financial manager, she has her own job in a law firm, so she is indeed too busy.
"Forget about VCD, you can't find the source of the film when you ship it here, what's the use of only selling the machine?" At this time, Joanna reminded Su Jingzhen that there are not so many pirated VCD discs on the side of the US imperialists, and it is likely that they will not be sold if the machine is shipped.
Su Jingzhen nodded, this is also, the market on the side of the United States is very strange, the upgrade of the film source is directly upgraded from videotape to DVD, and the survival time of videotapes on their side is still very long, longer than that of East Asian countries.
Although there were VCDs and super VCDs in the middle, they did not have an impact on the player market of the United States until the emergence of DVDs.
"Well, help find an agent to apply for certification, if this product is listed in the United States and then transmitted back to China, it will improve the quality of the product, which will be of great help to sales." "Su Jingzhen actually wants to turn export to domestic sales, because there is no way, and the mentality of domestic consumers at this time is like this.
"What about your mobile air conditioner? Don't you apply for it together?" Joanna remembered in her heart that Su Jingzhen also had an air conditioner under her name, in her opinion, this air conditioner still has a certain market, especially for those who often have to move, such an air conditioner is perfect.
As long as there is a window, you can install the ventilation pipe of the air conditioner on the window, and you can immediately enjoy a cool summer, if it is other types of air conditioners, it is not a big problem to install a split machine, the key is not long before you have to move out, do you dismantle or not?
Because the labor on the side of the United States is particularly expensive, it can be said that the cost of installation and dismantling can completely buy a new air conditioner, and it is a waste of money to remove it, the price is expensive, and it is a waste of money if you don't dismantle it.
So when this mobile air conditioner appeared in front of Joanna, she was really optimistic about its market, if she was poor, she would probably buy one like this and put it at home, and when she moved, she could directly dismantle it by herself.
"The air conditioner has not been studied well, some key technologies have not been dealt with well, and the noise is relatively large, which will affect the quality of life when used, and the engineers still need some time to improve. Su Jingzhen said helplessly, seeing that summer is coming, he is about to have a summer vacation, but he doesn't know when the air conditioner will be ready, and it is still far from being listed.
"That's going to miss out on this summer's peak sales season. Joanna also thought of this question and said with some regret.
"Alas, let's apply for the certification of the Walkman first, and leave the rest alone. "Su Jingzhen is not in the mainland now, and he can't fully control the research node of the product, so he can only hope that his parents and cousin can speed up.
Cousin Yuan Guanghua is a little confused now, because since the second week, the number of calls from the customer service side has begun to increase, and there are quite a lot of small merchants who want to do wholesale.
Then send someone to the electronic market to ask, it turns out that many students after school went to some stalls selling Walkman in groups to find this Walkman, the vendor's market sense is also quite keen, found that someone came to ask, and there is more than one, immediately knew that this product may be a bit of a market, so I called directly according to the phone number on the advertisement.
"Cousin, you can't do this, you let the operator directly record the phone calls of those individual customers, and when the product is launched, let them go directly to our direct store, so that you can reach a group of customers. Jiang Xiuxia and Yuan Yongyi did not go back to Tongguan Town immediately after dinner, but stayed at the window to accompany her husband, so when this incident happened, she immediately gave her opinion.
