Chapter 180: Take the shares for nothing
Mr. Chen was stunned, Tianze promoted the two websites, not only did not collect money, but also gave money?
But soon, he understood what Dr. Tian meant. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"You mean, shares?" Mr. Chen asked.
"From the other side's point of view, it's a shareholding. From our standpoint, that's financing. Dr. Tian laughed.
Hearing the word 'financing', Mr. Chen's heart beat violently obviously.
In recent years, with the rapid popularization of the Internet, the mentality of Internet practitioners has also changed unconsciously.
Before 2000, or even before 2002, most Internet practitioners generally planned for the future: to set up a website, increase the traffic of the website, and find buyers to sell it at a high price.
For the vast majority of Internet entrepreneurs at that time, financing and listing was an unexpected, let alone unattainable dream, which was not under consideration.
Some are similar to most of the online novel writers in Zeyue at present, even if they sell the copyright of film and television dramas and change them into film and television dramas, they can gain fame and fortune, but it is impossible for the vast majority of writers, even top writers like Xueyun, in the process of writing books, will not bother specifically for film and television drama adaptations.
However, since 2003, the global economic recovery, especially the Internet industry, has completely come out of the cold winter, and web2.0 has emerged in the sky, which has found a new development path for the Internet...... A series of great changes in the economic environment have also profoundly affected the Internet practitioners in the mainland.
The thinking of the current Internet practitioners has changed, and a large number of people have begun to look to the capital market.
Find a project, make it bigger, find strong partners and capital to finance. This model has gradually become the mainstream of Internet entrepreneurship.
Financing is the first step to go public, and even if it can't be listed in the end, the financing itself can make a lot of money.
Therefore, financing has become the hottest word in the Internet industry, and it is also the greatest affirmation and honor for an Internet project and Internet company.
Except for a very small number of high-quality companies with excellent performance, no shortage of money at all, and no need for too much publicity, such as Zeyue, Zelianke, and the former Tencent Baidu, the vast majority of Internet companies are aiming at financing.
Hearing the word financing, Mr. Chen's heart inevitably chuckled.
"Tianze is a variety entertainment production company, even if this show is related to our business, it will not necessarily invest in us, right?" Mr. Chen is not very sure, Tianze cannot have only one non-sincere Do Not Disturb show in the future, and it is impossible to only do blind date programs. Other types of shows, what does it have to do with them?
Besides, Tianze was only founded after all, and this time he made a fortune through Feicheng Do Not Disturb, and this money will naturally be spent on the company's development and growth, and continue to produce high-quality programs, how can it be used for financing? Isn't this putting the cart before the horse?
"Tianze really won't, but don't forget, what does Tianze's real boss, Zhao Zejun, do?"
Dr. Tian smiled faintly and said confidently: "Zhao Zejun started from the Internet, and his biggest and most core business is on the Internet. Tianze has no money, he has money, Tianze's future focus is in film and television entertainment, but his future focus is still in the Internet industry. Now that there are more and more single men and women in China, and our two companies have joined forces to occupy more than 90% of the market, I don't believe that he will not see our prospects. ”
"If Zhao Zejun is willing to invest in our company, this is a good thing. Mr. Chen said: "I won't talk about the propaganda role of Do Not Disturb if you are not honest, it is obviously easy to see." In addition, he also has Blog China under him, if Blog China can be promoted, the effect can be called terrifying, and the two of you may really see the day of listing. ”
"So, Mr. Chen, you don't have to be too nervous. Let's go this time, according to my guess, in fact, we are not talking with Tianze, but with Zhao Zejun, and the conversation is not about the selection of male and female guests, but capital. ”
Dr. Tian affirmed: "We have a market, he has money and a propaganda machine, and the two sides are still cooperating, not who asks for whom." To put it mildly, capital is easy to find, good projects are hard to find, and the popularity of non-sincerity does not disturb shows that there is a large market for blind dates and friends, and the prospects are gratifying. As long as we join forces, we can suppress him and negotiate the best terms. Unless, he doesn't want to make money, he doesn't want to do capital operation. ”
"Makes sense. Dr. Tian, you are worthy of staying in the ocean, and after such an analysis, I suddenly became enlightened. Mr. Chen nodded: "Then the two of us, are we not going to unify our bottom line before meeting him." ”
"Of course, I have said so much, and the core meaning is only one: we must unite and unite with the outside world!"
"Haha, if the financing is successful, Zhao Zejun can't be completely considered an outsider, and he can also be allowed to enter our circle. ”
So after the two arrived in Jianwu City, they did not rush to see Zhao Zejun, but opened a room.
Talk about work in the room.
It wasn't until the afternoon of the third day that they came to Zelianke together.
Listening to Gianna, the two elders of the other party always came together, and now they are accompanied by Zhou Yuanyuan in the reception room, Zhao Zejun groaned slightly and said, 'Got it'.
When she came to the reception room, Zhou Yuanyuan was talking about something with two middle-aged men, and Zhao Zejun said with a smile: "Good afternoon, two, let the two of you run in person, it's hard work." ”
Dr. Tian got up and took the initiative to shake hands with Zhao Zejun and said: "Now colleagues in the Internet industry are fortunate to be invited by Mr. Zhao of Zelianke to visit the headquarters of Zelianke. ”
Mr. Chen looked at Zhou Yuanyuan and said, "What's more, accompanied by such a beautiful woman as Mr. Zhou, the two of us just feel that time flies too fast." ”
"In short, I was not well entertained and neglected. Have a seat. ”
After taking a seat, Zhao Zejun asked Zhou Yuanyuan: "How did you talk to the two CEOs just now?"
Zhou Yuanyuan understood, nodded and said: "Before you came, I chatted with the two CEOs about the recent situation and the development plan for the next one or two years, and the two CEOs introduced the current situation of their company to me. The total number of registered people in China Dating Center and Baihe.com has exceeded 1 million. ”
"1 million?" Zhao Zejun nodded, "A very considerable number." ”
After all, the Internet in 2005 cannot be compared with 2016, and the website with hundreds of thousands of registered users is definitely a well-known website at present, and it already has a basis for contacting capital.
Moreover, the marriage and dating market, on the Internet, is still an undeveloped virgin land, and has great potential in the future. Strictly speaking, hundreds of millions of people in the country are potential customers for marriage and dating, and this potential customer group will not be without a fault, because there will be generations of people born and raised, which is a business that can operate for a long time.
"It is precisely because of our huge user base and high-quality customer base that our two families are confident to provide high-quality guests for Do Not Disturb. ”
Dr. Tian said with a little pride: "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb is a popular blind date program in China, and our website is the top dating website in China, which is a match made in heaven." Once we cooperate, for both sides, we can play a role in promoting one plus one is greater than two. ”
"The two of us cooperate, not three?" Zhao Zejun smiled, his eyes swept over Mr. Chen's face, and asked half-jokingly: "Why, Mr. Chen's Lily Network is not ready to cooperate?"
Dr. Tian's smile stiffened slightly, and Mr. Chen hurriedly added: "What Dr. Tian means is that our two blind date dating sites jointly provide guests for non-sincere Do Not Disturb." For example, we are a military region, not a battlefield of the platform of Honesty and Do Not Disturb, and we help find and train soldiers to go to the battlefield, so Dr. Tian said that it is both sides. That's what you mean, right?" he said, glancing at Dr. Tian.
"Of course. Dr. Tian said.
"Okay, since the two of you are willing to cooperate, I won't say more, if you are honest, do not disturb what level of show it is now, and how much impact it can bring, I don't need to say, the two of you also know. Zhao Zejun nodded and looked at Zhou Yuanyuan, "You haven't talked to the two bosses about our conditions just now, have you?"
Zhou Yuanyuan nodded.
Zhao Zejun hummed and said: "In the future, your two websites will provide male and female guests to be selected for each issue, and the number of female guests is five times the number of vacancies, and the number of male guests is twenty per issue." In the end, it is up to Tianze to decide who will come to power. In terms of Do Not Disturb, each episode will be subtitled on your website under the screen, and the total time will be no less than 20 seconds at the beginning and end of the program and when each male guest comes on the stage, and the host will mention the name of the partner website no less than 5 times in the program. ”
The more Dr. Tian and Mr. Chen listened, the more surprised they became.
I thought that the other party would give publicity, but I never expected that the publicity would be so strong!
This kind of publicity can be said to far exceed the effect of exclusive title and program advertising.
There will never be pies in the sky, and the Zhao Zejun in front of him has never been a philanthropist, Dr. Tian asked: "Mr. Zhao, you have given us such great support, in addition to male and female guests, what else do we need to pay?"
Zhao Zejun did not answer him, but asked Mr. Chen of the China Dating Center: "Mr. Chen, do you satisfy the publicity efforts that you have come up with?"
"Very satisfied. Mr. Chen said in a deep voice: "It is far beyond my expectations." ”
"That's good. Zhao Zejun turned his gaze back to Dr. Tian and answered his question just now: "I am very optimistic about the blind date and dating websites of the two, and I want to take a stake in the websites of the two." ”
Dr. Tian smiled slightly, looked at Mr. Chen, and both of them showed a look of 'sure enough' in their eyes at the same time, and they were not surprised by Zhao Zejun's request.
Dr. Tian said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao is really a cheerful person. So how much do you want and how much are you willing to invest? In other words, what is the valuation that you give to our website?"
The reception room was quiet, Dr. Tian's smiling gaze, Mr. Chen's slightly nervous but expectant gaze, and Zhou Yuanyuan's somewhat playful gaze all fell on Zhao Zejun's face.
"Valuation? no, no, no. ”
Zhao Zejun stretched out a finger and shook it gently: "My main business is not venture capital, and I don't have professional valuation technology, so I don't plan to value the two companies." ”
"If you don't have a valuation, how can you raise money?" Dr. Tian asked strangely.
"Maybe I didn't make it clear. ”
Zhao Zejun smiled faintly and said slowly: "I just want the shares of the two of you, I am not ready to pay for it, you have two websites, I want 40% of the shares of each of them." ”
