In the financing circle of IT and even all innovative industries, when a rising emerging company accepts investment from a new venture capital institution, it often values not only the injection of money, but also the introduction of new resources and new channels.

For example, in history, Tesla, before accepting Google's investment, also encountered many capital predators who liked to invest in the traditional automotive industry and took the initiative to stuff money. But Tesla has tactfully screened investors, turned away the Middle Eastern oil money, and took Google's money.

Because Tesla knows very well that after taking Google's money, it will not only get money, but also Google's resource support in artificial intelligence data.

In the same way, the stick is engaged in entertaining those guys, the historical S-M took Ahri's money, and YG took Teng Xun's money.

Could it be that the stick is only interested in money? No, they are also interested in the channel advantages of Ahri Music/Fuji Xun Music.

The boss of the stick knows that as long as Ahri and Fuji Xun have shares in the company, those channels will open the way for their artists.

Conversely, if an innovative company in Silicon Valley takes money from an Arab oil tycoon, the industry will generally see the phenomenon as a red flag of the "pill for this company."

For example, in 2016, a certain hardcore wearable device company (in fact, it was a smart bracelet) that was known as rampant and one of the best in Silicon Valley. Under the joint encirclement and suppression of the high and low end of Apple i-Watch and Xiaomi Mi Bracelet, after running out of ammunition, he took a sum of money from a certain Middle Eastern oil prince xxx Hussein.

Since then, no other serious venture capital has given money to this company.

Because everyone on earth knows that those big dogs don't have any off-site resources, they only have money. Once the innovative company takes the money of the big dog, it means that the company declares to the world that it no longer cares about the resources for further development, and only wants to survive for a long time.

Taking oil money is a precursor to the end of all Silicon Valley and Hollywood companies.

It shows that people who know how to do it are not optimistic about this product, and no matter how much they make up stories, they can't fool smart people, so they can only find the oil tycoon who is usually despised to be the last pick-up man.

But from another point of view, those big dogs are quite happy to be pick-up heroes, because they are usually not qualified to enter the market and pretend to be forced. After they buy a Hollywood Doomsday Film Company that is about to go bankrupt, even if they lose money, as long as they sleep with their female stars, those big dogs feel that it is enough, and people don't want to make money from this.

It is also true that domestic coal bosses lose money to buy innovative companies that are about to die to decorate their façade and improve their image as nouveau riche.

Therefore, the kindness that Chen Qi expressed to Gu Mojie at the end is what a real entrepreneur should say: if Mushroom Street proves its value, it hopes to get the support of big data shared by users in the first circle to boost the efficiency of its marketing push.

At the same time, the payment entrance of the future mushroom street is obediently packaged and delivered to the door of the first meeting wallet, which is a kind of reciprocation.

For such a good person, it's still okay to make friends as friends. But whether to place a heavy bet or not, it is necessary to observe and observe, to see if Chen Qi has enough iron fist to defeat the first batch of followers in the next few months.

It's useless to be creative and plan, this thing can be a copycat. Killing the dog is the real force.

……

Zhou Lixin followed Gu Mojie upstairs and went to the office to talk about the second half.

Sitting down on the sofa, Gu Mojie remembered a question: "By the way, how much did you give him that Chen Qi in the end?" How is it valued? ”

Zhou Lixin and said: "A friend, I will estimate 60 million for him in the angel round, and then give him 3 million cash first, accounting for 5% of the equity." Their other co-founders scraped together 2 million, a total of 5 million, and wrote and perfected the app and server within two months. This step is kept secret, so there is no fear of leaking plans and plans, and it will not attract followers.

After the app is written, it will be shown to me before the 11th National Day, I will test it, the software is fine, it can be put into the market, and then give him a round of financing. The plan I told him was that if nothing else, the software would be completed and the company would be valued at 100 million, and then 10 million publicity channel funds and server additional costs would be invested, and an increase of 10% would be added. ”

Zhou Lixin's bid is quite kind, and it is a step-by-step look at the prospects, and the ABC round is invested step by step, which is a very professional approach.

His judgment was not affected by personal relationships.

"Then I'll rest assured, it seems that you will basically not be cheated." Gu Mojie laughed lightly.

Zhou Lixin scolded with a smile: "Damn, do you think my brother has been a fool of Alipay for six years, haven't you ever eaten pork and never seen a pig run." ”

"Cheng, then let's leave this matter at that, let's talk about you to help me get the 'First Sight Wallet'." Gu Mojie stopped the previous topic and said crookedly, "You have almost understood everything we have made here." The PC version of the wallet, from the perspective of you, a 'former technical director of Alipay', do you think there is a problem? ”

"The PC version has no problem, what's so difficult for you, and you've been preparing for so long." Zhou Lixin patted his chest and packed the ticket directly.

Because of the function of the wallet for the first time, Hatsune Network Technology has actually been preparing for a long time, and the reason why it has not been released for a long time is that the business is not urgently needed, and on the other hand, it is also considering the strategic partnership with Ahri Group.

So, this is an old item that was written and locked in the warehouse and didn't dare to take it out, and it must be very mature and stable.

Listening to Zhou Lixin's affirmation, Gu Mojie was also very pleased, but the stakes were very high, in order to make sure that Zhou Lixin was not comforting him, he still solemnly confirmed once: "There is really no problem?" What did Alipay do technically, and did it when I first saw the wallet? ”

Zhou Lixin thought about it and decided to talk about some trivial dry goods.

"If you want to talk about nuances, there are still some. I have tested it, and your payment verification response speed is several percent faster than Alipay, and the user experience is very smooth. I don't know how well the payment security is done - the reason why Alipay takes the card for so long every time it pays for verification is to verify the local environment as detailed as possible to prevent theft. ”

Gu Mojie smiled.

Zhou Lixin can see this, which means that it is really a detailed test.

"You don't have to worry about this, the account security is absolutely excellent. The reason why Alipay needs a card for 8 seconds to pay money, and we can pay it in 5~6 seconds with a card, is entirely because we can buffer a large amount of pre-detection work in advance on the computer that is pre-installed with Hatsune Computer Manager and Hatsune Antivirus. Therefore, the amount of data processing is simplified at the moment of final payment. ”

Zhou Lixin suddenly realized.

The Hatsune Group makes a wallet, which actually has an additional advantage over Ahri.

That is, the domestic civil security software and antivirus software market is almost monopolized by Hatsune! In the case that everyone is installed with Hatsune Antivirus, Hatsune can of course complete part of the pre-check and kill work of its own wallet software in advance, and when it comes to the door, it will naturally be stuck for a few seconds.

This point is not that Ahri or Tengxun technology is not good, but they do not have such a comprehensive ecological layout.

Zhou Lixin comforted Gu Mojie firmly: "The wallet on the PC side must be stable, I don't know much about the app, and I don't have the right to speak for the time being-Lao Ma is also developing mobile Alipay, but it hasn't been made yet." When I left, I just mixed up the first half of the project. It is estimated that Lao Ma will launch mobile Alipay and mobile Taobao next year. ”

"It's okay, the app is here, when you come, just mention more points with the colleagues in charge of the project. The team that made our own app was not full of people, and there was no way, the smart phone has only appeared for less than a year, and no one has any experience.

Last month, I received Lei Jun's UC Youshi Technology, and from there, I dug up some of the most senior backbone teams to make apps, and first enriched the Chujian wallet development team. It is estimated that the app version will be more than the PC night market for so many months. ”

Zhou Lixin and Gu Mojie checked the current project progress information, and interviewed several important technical leaders. By the way, Zhou Lixin's identity was introduced to everyone.

At the beginning, those responsible personnel who saw the wallet for the first time were full of disbelief when they heard that Zhou Lixin was about to be the technical director of the first wallet project.

Looks like you're thirty years old, right? Isn't it awesome? Come in and be the technical director of the project?

Later, when I heard it, Zhou Lixin had six years of senior qualifications in Alipay, and he suddenly had nothing to say, and he specialized in all kinds of dissatisfaction.

After inquiring again, it turned out that Zhou Lixin still had 2% of the group shares, and he was Mr. Gu's cousin, so he had nothing to say.

That night, Gu Mojie invited guests and brought all the senior executives of the group and Hatsune Network Technology to the Radisson Summer Palace for dinner, which was regarded as a welcome for Zhou Lixin's joining. Everyone had a good night's relaxation, and the next day they were given a day off to refresh themselves, and then they returned to their full work.

After that, the two spent two or three days sorting out the information, clarifying the problem, sorting out the context, and finally Zhou Lixin patted his chest and gave Gu Mojie a timetable.

"When I first saw the PC version of the wallet, it can be launched on August 15th, warm up, just in time for the beginning of the school season. The app version has been postponed to the 11th National Day. ”

Gu Mojie was quite satisfied with this progress: "Okay, then it's decided." After the launch on August 15th, we will strive to bring our own Steam stand-alone digital game sales platform, Hatsune Entertainment's full range of online game point card sales platform, and self-media and mod production sharing remuneration distribution platform to Chujian wallet within half a month.

Then after the start of school, promote it for a month, pull in some other virtual item sales merchants, and wait for the eleventh app version of the wallet to stabilize, and then I will ask Zou Sheng to open the 'Hatsune mailbox paid letter reading' business to the public beta. ”

As for the Chujian series of products, those function point modules such as "burn after reading" and "private mode" do not need the support of payment functions, so the launch time will naturally not be restricted by wallet products, and they can be released before the start of school.

Every new school year starts at the beginning of the year, and it is a confession season for countless sprouting slings, how can you miss the good opportunity to speak irresponsibly "burn after reading". (To be continued.) )
