57,

Wang Zhiyuan glanced at Zeng Liqing and said, "That's right! There is no real Internet instant messaging software yet, and I am very interested in it." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"You're going to make a move again, you really can't stop! However, I'm optimistic about your vision! I admire you as a person!" Zhou Wenjie admired Wang Zhiyuan's vision in his heart.

"Yes, I also admire Mr. Wang's vision, and the development of several companies currently invested in is very good, especially Qiandu Search, which has great prospects!" Zeng Liqing said politely, but he was also surprised by Mr. Wang's vicious market vision.

"Haha.... You praise me, I won't be modest!" Wang Zhiyuan laughed, then paused and looked at Zeng Liqing and said, "Let's go together in two days." ”

"Okay, no problem! Zeng Liqing said that he just wanted to take a look at the founder of this company and see if it was different from Ma Huateng.

"Alright. Say okay, don't talk about work today, let's go, let's go horseback riding!" Zhou Wenjie interjected, he couldn't participate in Wang Zhiyuan's investment, and all his thoughts were now on Qiandu.

"Haha.... That's right, it's my fault that I didn't talk about business today. Let's go to the horse farm now, ride the horse, and gallop!" Wang Zhiyuan said with a smile.

After that, the three of them went to the horse farm in the pasture and rode horses to gallop across the grassland, which had a unique taste.

It's just that Zeng Liqing was tragic, and he barely learned to ride a horse after falling off the horse several times. And Wang Zhiyuan quickly adapted to it with the help of his riding skills in his previous life, and his riding skills surprised the two.

Two days later, Wang Zhiyuan and Zeng Liqing held a meeting with them at the place agreed with Weisge in advance.

....

In a private room at a high-end café, two sturdy young men in their early twenties were sitting.

"Weisge, are you right? The guy who doesn't want to sell the domain name is willing to invest in us for the reason: fate?" said one of the other two people who worked with Weisg on the software.

This man's name is Wadi. Two days ago, I heard Weisge say that Wang Zhiyuan was going to buy shares, and I am still surprised.

"That's right, this Wang Zhiyuan is still a Chinese, a very interesting person. As for the investment he said, he had to meet to talk about it. However, he asked for more than 30% of the shares, which was a bit difficult. Weisge said.

The three of them summed it up and thought that Wang Zhiyuan could be allowed to become a shareholder, but it was difficult to determine the funds and shares of the shares. However, there is one thing that the three of them agree on, that is, the shares in the hands of the three must be absolutely controlled.

"At present, we can't find an investor, if this person named Wang Zhiyuan can afford to raise funds, it is not impossible to hold more than 30% of the shares. It's just that we need an estimated 2 million funds in the short term, that is, in a year, and we don't know what the strength of the other party is. Wadi worried.

"We have three plans, which are three million, five million, and six million, and we don't know what the other party's bottom line is. Weisg said, looking out the window.

"I feel that five million is already the highest valuation, and it is unrealistic to overestimate it. And didn't you say that he was a professional investor? It is difficult to have a high valuation for our software that cannot be profitable in the short term. "Wadi is not as confident as Wisge.

"I'll wait until we meet and talk. Weisge said indifferently.

Wadi nodded, then asked, "How long has it been since he arrived?"

"I guess it's almost there, shall we wait patiently?" Weisge looked at the time, it was less than an hour before the agreed time.

....

At this time, Wang Zhiyuan and Zeng Li Qingzheng took a taxi towards the café.

"Mr. Wang, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to ask or not?" Zeng Liqing sat next to Wang Zhiyuan and suddenly asked.

"Oh, just say something. Regarding Zeng Liqing's politeness, Wang Zhiyuan didn't say anything more, let him be.

"I want to ask, why do we want to invest in two companies that are both engaged in Internet instant messaging at the same time?" Investing in two companies, the same industry competes with each other, and both have a large proportion of shares, which is not conducive to the interests of the company, so Zeng Li Qingcai has some doubts.

If you are optimistic about the best company in an industry, it is always more beneficial to invest in it than to invest in it separately.

In addition, both of them are new companies, and he does not think that Wang Zhiyuan will make the investment out of the idea of gambling.

"Hey, hey.... You'll know later, and there's no point in saying it now. Wang Zhiyuan smiled and did not explain.

"Since Mr. Wang knows it, I don't have to worry about it. Zeng Liqing was helpless, Wang Zhiyuan didn't say it, and he couldn't help it.

At this time, Wang Zhiyuan looked at him and asked, "How is Qianxun going on over there?"

Wang Zhiyuan was a little worried that there was no reference to ICQ, and although he gave some advice, he was still worried about whether the developed software was in line with his imagination.

"Qianxun is still developing software, and there are still some problems that have not been solved, and it is estimated that it will be completed and launched this year. Zeng Liqing is still very concerned about Qianxun, because his interest is also because this is the first investment project he is responsible for.

"Is this so?" Sure enough, it was similar to what he had speculated, Wang Zhiyuan didn't have anything to worry about, but just said to Zeng Liqing: "The software of the company we went to interview today is estimated to be launched on the Internet this month. When the time comes, you ask Ma Huateng to understand more and learn from each other's strengths. ”

Hearing this, Zeng Liqing glanced at Wang Zhiyuan strangely, unable to understand what he meant, and was even more puzzled about the purpose of this investment.

He nodded, "I'll take care of it." As a competitor to their peers, I think they will value it as well. ”

Not long after, the two arrived at the café and were led by the waiter to the private room they had agreed upon.

"Knock knock!!" Wang Zhiyuan knocked on the door of the private room.

It was Weisge who came to open the door, and he was shocked when he saw Wang Zhiyuan and Zeng Liqing, and said in his heart: The two people who came looked to be Chinese, and their age was too different from them.

Weisge looked at Wang Zhiyuan and asked, "Hello, are you Wang Zhiyuan?"

Because Wang Zhiyuan was walking in front, he naturally thought that this person should be Wang Zhiyuan.

Wang Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Hello, I am Wang Zhiyuan, this person next to me is Zeng Liqing, I am very happy to meet you." ”

"Hello, I'm Zeng Liqing, it's a pleasure to meet you. Zeng Liqing stepped forward to greet him.

"Hello, I'm Wisig, and the one in there is Vady, and I'm one of the founders of our company. It's a pleasure to meet you guys. Weisge introduced and said, "Please come in, have a cup of coffee and take a break, and then we will talk about business." ”

"Thank you!" Wang Zhiyuan and Zeng Liqing entered and sat opposite Wadi and Weisge.

After drinking a cup of coffee, Wang Zhiyuan got straight to the point, handed out the business card and the introduction of Thousand Demon Technology, and said: "This is our business card and company information, you can look at it first." ”

Wadi took the information, and Weisge took the business card and looked at it, and after a while, the two exchanged and checked, with a serious and rigorous attitude.

"You are Chinese!President of Thousand Demon Technology Company: Wang Zhiyuan, Investment Advisory Manager: Zeng Liqing?" Weisge said as he looked at the two of them.

"Yes, there are relevant supporting documents in the information, and we are here with sincerity. Wang Zhiyuan nodded and said.

Before coming to the United States, in order to be prepared, the relevant materials and supporting materials have been prepared in advance.

"We can feel your sincerity, and in the same way, we are also here with sincerity, please see. With that, Weisge took out the folder and handed it to Wang Zhiyuan.

Wang Zhiyuan and Zeng Liqing looked at it carefully, and felt that the other party was sincere, and there was a great chance of success in this interview.

"Since everyone is so happy, let's talk directly about the details of the investment, our requirement is more than 30% of the shares, now please tell us about your requirements. Wang Zhiyuan said directly, since both sides have the will, there is no need to procrastinate.

After some repeated discussions, the two sides finally reached an agreement: Weisge's company is valued at 5 million, Wang Zhiyuan is financed with 2 million in cash and 3 million at a discount of 3 million for domain names, and the valuation after financing is 8 million, and Thousand Demon Technology accounts for 37.5%

The formalities will be completed gradually in the next few days!

For a new company, the product has not yet been interviewed and is valued at $500, Zeng Liqing does not approve, according to the information, he thinks that it is up to three million. But the other party didn't let it, it was very strong, but fortunately, the domain name was valued at one million, and Wang Zhiyuan agreed, so he was not good at arguing.

Afterwards, Zeng Liqing asked: "Why is Mr. Wang so optimistic about this company?"

is also engaged in Internet instant messaging, Qianxun only invested 5 million and it is still Huaxia currency, but it accounts for 40% of the shares.

Wang Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Technology!"

"Technology?" Zeng Liqing didn't understand in his heart, if it was technology, he used the money to invest in Qianxun, and he was afraid that he would not be able to recruit top talents.

However, Wang Zhiyuan added: "It's fate and strategy!"

"Fate, strategy?" strategy, it's okay to say, what is fate, is this your investment style? Zeng Liqing was even more confused.

....

"I heard that you have negotiated an investment again?" Li Yanhong picked up the red wine in the wine glass and clinked glasses with Wang Zhiyuan and asked.

It was already evening, Li Yanhong and Zhou Wenjie worked overtime to finish the work of Qiandu Company, and found a Chinese restaurant to make an appointment with Wang Zhiyuan and Zeng Liqing, eat, drink, and chat.

Now Qiandu Search has opened up the situation, changed the office location, and recruited a group of new talents. Li Yanhong and Zhou Wenjie felt a lot more relaxed.

"That's right, what I'm going to talk to Lao Zeng about today is a company that makes Internet instant messaging software...."Wang Zhiyuan told them about the general situation.

"I see, I heard you say that this company has a good future. However, you still continue to be your hands-off shopkeeper?" Zhou Wenjie found that although Wang Zhiyuan had changed, for example, he used to devote himself to Internet entrepreneurship, but now he seems to have become a professional investor.

However, one thing has not changed, that is, Wang Zhiyuan's enthusiasm for the Internet has changed, but it has become more crazy and hot.

"Hehe.... I still have self-knowledge, and without professional knowledge and technology, then I can only provide these assistance to you professionals, which can be regarded as my ideal!" Wang Zhiyuan's words were extremely sincere.

"Mr. Wang is too modest, your vision and grasp of the market, judgment, I don't see a second one that can be compared with you!" Zeng Liqing said with a toast.

He has a feeling that Wang Zhiyuan will become the most influential person in the world in the future.... He was glad to have met such a boss and to be able to work with him.

"Yes, I feel the same way!" Li Yanhong agreed with Zeng Liqing's opinion, in addition, Wang Zhiyuan has an encouraging and leading role for him, and they have become good friends with each other, I have to say that this is a blessing.

"Haha.... In that case, we should celebrate our encounter, and may our friendship last a long time! Cheers!" Zhou Wenjie stood up and raised his glass and said.

"Come on, cheers!" Wang Zhiyuan is not hypocritical, a group of friends, if the old man is too modest with each other, he will pretend to be a little forced.

Seeing that he was almost done eating and drinking, Li Yanhong suddenly said: "Now that Qiandu Search is developing rapidly, I discussed with Zhou Wenjie that in order to quickly expand and occupy the market, we need to raise funds again." ”

"Oh?" Wang Zhiyuan looked at Li Yanhong and fell into thought. He had thought about it too, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. He doesn't have a lot of money on hand these days, and it's unrealistic to want to fully cover the amount of financing.

Zhou Wenjie on the side also said: "This financing is different from before, in addition to the large amount of financing, it is also necessary to introduce strategic financing. After all, our headquarters are not in the United States, so we need to have strategic partners to avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble. ”

"Strategic financing?" Zeng Liqing thought for a while and said, "It's a good method, but is there such an investor at present?"

Such a strategic investment partner is important, has a strong market position, and has a strong presence in the United States. After all, the search has only just begun, and it is not easy to find such a strategic investor.

"yes, you're right. So we are now working on a business plan that can be used to pull strategic investments. Li Yanhong also knew that these were not easy, so he began to prepare.

At this time, Wang Zhiyuan spoke: "How do you plan to valuate? How much financing is needed, and how many strategic investors are needed?"

Now Wang Zhiyuan's Thousand Demon Technology has an absolute controlling interest in Qiandu Search, and he doesn't want to give up this right easily. Take 10,000 steps back, and Thousand Demon Technology should be the largest shareholder of Qiandu Search, so that it can speak and vote on major decisions.

Although Wang Zhiyuan is not involved in the day-to-day management of the company, he hopes to have the right to decide on the direction of development. If it doesn't count, it will become another way of investing, deviating from his vision and planning.

Zeng Liqing is also thinking about these issues, after all, he is an employee of Thousand Demon Technology, and the interests he considers are naturally the interests of Thousand Demon Technology. And Wang Zhiyuan also told him that if he finds a good project, he will strive for a controlling stake or a major shareholder.

"There is no specific plan for this, our initial plan is to have a valuation of 50 million to 80 million US dollars, raise 5 million to 8 million US dollars, and introduce more than one strategic investor. Li Yanhong said.

He consulted with relevant people to obtain these valuations, and his goal was to value $100 million, but unfortunately he couldn't do so.
