Chapter Seventy-One: Japanese Food

Some people say that Chinese people like to talk about things at the dinner table the most, whether it is business or feelings, without the process of eating, they always feel that there will be something missing.

The island people are similar, and the dinner table culture is also recognized as an indispensable part of their connection.

Sato very warmly invited Du Jiayi to have dinner with him, and Du Jiayi naturally would not refuse.

"The owner of this shop and I are old friends, as long as I come to the magic capital, I will definitely come over for a while." Hidetada Sato explained, "In this magic capital, the taste of this family is the most authentic. ”

"All the seafood and fish are flown in from the island country, that is, the rice and soy sauce are all originated, and the island country flavor is very good."

Du Jiayi quietly looked at Sato. Forced, after all, it's people talking about their own country's food, but they can't interrupt, otherwise it's too rude.

"Put the sushi upright and let only the frogfish meat get in the fresh soy sauce, and don't let the white rice touch it." Hidetada Sato demonstrated, "When you eat it like this, the frogfish has a very tender texture, and the rice is even more plump. ”

Ai Jin was greedy for a long time, and after Sato's demonstration, she couldn't wait to pick up a piece of sushi and stuff the sushi into it in one bite like Sato.

"Eun~ It's really delicious!" Ai Jinmeng said happily.

Although Du Jiayi is not very fond of the island country, he cannot deny the country's historical traditions. Japanese cuisine is also very unique to a certain extent, with meticulous methods and cooking techniques that pay great attention to preserving the natural taste.

Du Jiayi tried it, and the fresh taste of the sushi was very pleasant.

No wonder when I was in another world, some netizens said: You can't give up any place, what if something delicious grows?

Sushi is just a side dish, along with teriyaki, rice balls, and rolled seaweed......

The amount of each dish is not large, and it is very delicate, Ai Jinmeng eats it very well, anyway, these are basically fish and rice, and she will not become very fat if she eats too much.

"Mr. Du, try sake, you will like it." Sato smiled and picked up his glass.

Du Jiayi gently touched the cup with Sato and drank it all. The alcohol content of the sake is very low, so it does not have a hot taste, and it is not particularly refreshing.

"It's lower than your liquor, but for me, it's more comfortable with the taste of sake." Sato is not the kind of extreme island countryman, and has a clear understanding of many things. This may also be the reason why he has been able to do a lot better in Greater China after he became the president of Greater China.

Sato's attitude made Du Jiayi have a lot of good feelings, after all, in Du Jiayi's stereotyped impression, island people are always very arrogant.

"When I visited the company before, I saw that there seems to be a network department in Yijia Media?"

"It's not a department of Yijia Media, it's an independent Yijia Internet company, but the two companies work together, and occasionally seconded employees."

What is the prospect of Yijia Weibo, Du Jiayi knows very well in his heart. Du Jiayi will not put this golden egg under Yijia Media, anyway, it is not so much money, and Du Jiayi can afford to invest at the beginning.

"I'm actually very optimistic about this kind of social networking site, and the situation of Weibo is very novel, which should be liked by many young people." Sato said.

The word Weibo has not yet appeared, and there is no corresponding word in the island Chinese dialect, so Sato uses an awkward Chinese pronunciation when expressing it.

Although they have not met for a long time and do not know each other deeply, Du Jiayi has always been vigilant and vigilant against people like Sato. With SoftBank's ability, when investigating Yijia Media, there will definitely be an analysis of the Weibo website. As a person who has been online for more than a month, he has been able to reach a huge number of visits and almost 100% user stickiness, and Du Jiayi doesn't believe that Sato will not notice.

"SoftBank actually specializes in Internet investment, and most of the top domestic portals have our investment. If Mr. Du needs funds, SoftBank can provide a good investment. ”

"Of course, Mr. Du is clearly not a keen investor."

Sato said with a smile.

Sato understands this very well, and Du Jiayi has a strong possession deep in his heart. If it is not a last resort, Du Jiayi will not accept investment. It's obviously a hen that lays golden eggs, why let others own the shares.

If it weren't for the limited funds, Du Jiayi would not have accepted Wang Tao's investment of 150 million yuan. Let SoftBank invest only because SoftBank can help Yijia Media acquire Focus in the northern market, and then occupy the entire domestic building advertising market, which is difficult to accomplish with capital alone.

"It's not that I'm reluctant to accept investment, it's that the valuation of my company is simply too low." Du Jiayi said with a smile, "If there is a suitable price, I don't mind accepting it." ”

"So what is your valuation of Weibo? You must know that SoftBank is not bad for money, enough to give you the price you want. ”

"Ten billion, right?" Du Jiayi said a little uncertainly, "That's probably so much." ”

"Then SoftBank can give another $100 million, as long as Weibo has 20 percent of the shares." Sato said proudly.

"Cough cough cough~" Ai Jinmeng was directly choked by a mouthful of wine, and after coughing violently, she finally gasped for breath.

The translator was also shocked by the number in Sato's mouth, and reconfirmed it before daring to translate it to Du Jiayi.

Just before the contract was reached, Yijia Media accepted an investment of 200 million US dollars from SoftBank, occupying 15% of the shares, so Yijia Media is a company with more than 10 billion people/RMB. Now Sato has proposed to invest 100 million US dollars in Yijia Weibo, accounting for only 20 percent, so the entire market value of Weibo will be close to 10 billion.

In just one day, Du Jiayi seems to be about to become a super-rich man worth more than 20 billion.

"No~" Du Jiayi directly refused, "I said that the valuation of Yijia Weibo is 10 billion US dollars, and if SoftBank only invests 100 million, it can only account for one percent at most." ”

Ten billion dollars?

SoftBank's entire market value is now only $50 billion, which is already a giant among the entire Internet companies. It is difficult to say whether the market value of most domestic Internet companies is 10 billion US dollars.

"You ......" No matter how self-relict Sato is, he can't face this big number without changing color.

Sato breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Du is very optimistic about social networking sites like Weibo!" ”

"For social networking sites, users and traffic are the lifeline, and Weibo will be a website with huge users and traffic in the future, which can be converted into revenue, and I don't think this valuation is too much."

Sato laughed silently, thinking that this was just a barrier that Du Jiayi had raised to reject him. In fact, in Du Jiayi's view, with the growth of users, Weibo began to move towards Facebook, Weibo, and Twitter. Special complex development. As a student group at the forefront of the Internet, they soon logged on to Weibo on a large scale and transferred their social connections to Weibo.

The most frequent sentence between them is: Have you Weibo?

After realizing this, Du Jiayi added a personal information page to the Weibo homepage, introducing personal status to facilitate the social interaction between these students. When Facebook was able to develop, the college student group played an irreplaceable role.

As a college student herself, Du Jiayi has an innate advantage in promoting among students, and in just a few days, the university page on Weibo has attracted more than 100,000 users.

As a multi-social complex, Du Jiayi's valuation of 10 billion US dollars is really not low. It's just that in Sato's eyes, it seems so incredible that I don't want to believe it.

Since the two can't reach a consensus, the topic of Weibo has passed. If Sato can foresee the market value of Yijia Network in the future, he will definitely invest all of his shares at this time.

The alcohol content of the sake is not high, and if you drink too much, you will get a little upset, and when you get a little dizzy, Sato and Du Jiayi end the dinner.

"I'm going to Kyoto tomorrow, and I'm glad I was able to make a deal today!" Sato held out his hand.

Du Jiayi stretched out his hand and shook Sato: "I hope to complete the merger and acquisition in the shortest possible time, I am waiting for news in the magic capital!" ”

Sato sent Du Jiayi for a while, and then went back to find the Japanese food boss to catch up.

"Are you crazy? How can Weibo be worth so much money! Ai Jinmeng finally couldn't hold it back anymore and shouted at Du Jiayi.

"Hiccup~" Du Jiayi burped, and a breath of wine spurted out of his mouth, "Why can't it be worth so much money?" I think it could be worth a little more! ”

"If they hadn't attacked the Divide first, I wouldn't have ignored them!" Du Jiayi said indignantly.

From the moment they met, Du Jiayi felt that he was held in his hand by Sato, and this kind of skill was very bad. I was finally able to win at the end, and I finally relieved the depression in my chest.

"Ten billion dollars!" Ai Jinmeng's mind kept circling this number, only to feel that her mind was blank, until the two of them got into the car, Ai Jinmeng had not woken up.

"Ten billion, or dollars, how many things can I buy?"

"No matter how much money you have, you can only eat so much and live in such a small place." Du Jiayi said jokingly, "At most, I buy two cups of soy milk, drink one by myself and pour one out; Buy two steamed buns, it is estimated that you will not have enough to eat, buy two more, enough for you to eat; You have to buy two sets of clothes, one to wear and one to hang for collection. ”

"No~~" Ai Jin said with a wail: "When I have money, I must buy a few secretaries, and leave all the things to them!" ”
