Chapter 308: Almost Missed a Big Gold Mine

The biggest benefit that indos95's rapid development in the world has brought to Lin Zheng is that the part of Microsoft stock in his hand is even earlier.

Tan Na felt like she was dreaming, pinched herself, and still asked Lin Zheng in disbelief, "In just a few days, the stock in our hands has changed from 3ooo million to 9ooo million?" ”

"What? Are you too little? Lin Zheng smiled and asked, "It's okay, you wait a few more days, I believe it won't take a few days to be worth more than $100 million worth of stocks." ”

"No, I just think...... It's like a dream," Tan Na shook her head, at this time, she didn't have the heart to play with Lin Zheng, although she knew that the stock market made money, but in just one week, the stock in her hand had tripled, which still gave her too much shock, "We didn't do anything, and there were more than 6ooo dollars more than 10,000 dollars in the account out of thin air...... It's faster than grabbing money. ”

"That's the beauty of the stock market, he can turn people into millionaires, multi-millionaires overnight, or they can lose their pants overnight and have nothing, if we hold Microsoft stock to us and Bill. When Gates' agreement expires, the stock will be worth more than $200 million. Microsoft's situation is not replicable, their situation is too special, and it is not that any company is willing to spend 300 million dollars for publicity, don't you say? Worried that Tan Na would decide to switch to the stock market because of this, Lin Zheng knocked on the side.

"Of course I know the truth that 'the stock market is risky, and you need to be cautious when entering the market'," Tan Na glanced at Lin Zheng angrily, "I was just thinking about how good it would be to have such an opportunity again." ”

"Rest assured. That's not a problem. ”

"What?" Tan Na's eyes widened instantly, and she said in disbelief, "You say we still have such a chance?" ”

"Yes," Lin Zheng nodded affirmatively, "When our IcQ is listed." I'm sure that IcQ will have a market capitalization of over $600 million, and I can guarantee that it will be over $2o billion by 2ooo or so, so you should know how much room to operate in that, right? ”

"Of course I understand, but you're so confident in IcQ?" Tan Na said suspiciously, "I've always been curious. How did you have so much confidence in IcQ? This thing is now completely a money-losing thing. ”

"How can it be a money-losing product, you see, haven't some merchants taken the initiative to come to us now, hoping to advertise on our IcQ?"

The American capitalists' sensitivity to business opportunities and new things is indeed not comparable to that of domestic entrepreneurs. After Gates helped Lin Zheng promote IcQ at the indos95 conference, some merchants immediately realized the huge business opportunities hidden in IcQ. I hope to use the "high price" of 1o US dollars to advertise on IcQ, and more advertising agencies will come to the door, hoping to use 5o million yuan of IcQ's entire advertising space in the next three years. How can there be such a cheap good thing in this world?

"Are you embarrassed?" Tan Na almost laughed out loud when she heard it, "$3o a year for advertising...... May I ask Mr. Lin, how much money have you invested in IcQ? ”

Lin Zheng's face did not change. "3o million is not a lot, don't you see those who engage in the Internet, and now rely on venture capital to burn money to support it? If you don't burn millions of dollars, you're embarrassed to say hello to people. ”

It is normal to burn money on the Internet, it is normal to burn millions of dollars, and burning tens of millions of dollars can cause everyone's two sentences, and a few hundred million less may not make money...... But there is an opportunity to circle money from the stock market.

Look at Yahoo Search, which is now in the limelight, it has become a hot rookie in the American Internet field, but who knows that they are now living a hungry life. Are you worried about raising funds for the exhibition...... April? Sequoia Capital?!

Lin Zheng stood up suddenly, because the movement was too violent, he directly flipped the table to the ground.

"What's wrong?" Looking at Lin Zheng, whose face suddenly changed greatly, Tan Na hurriedly asked.

"Probably...... I mean maybe," Lin Zheng said word by word. "We may have really run into a big gold mine!"

"What big gold mine?" Tan Na believed that it would definitely not be a trivial matter that could make Lin Zheng react so violently, her expression suddenly became serious, she chatted with Lin Zheng just now, and she said wherever she wanted, but not now, since it is related to the company making a lot of money, it must not be ambiguous.

"Yahoo, that's the one called Yahoo! Internet search engine companies, you know? ”

"You know, their search engine is quite easy to use, I heard that the owner of this company has a Chinese? This is quite rare," Tan Na nodded, her reaction was quite fast, listening to Lin Zheng say this, she immediately realized that Lin Zheng was eyeing Yahoo, and was a little surprised, "Do you think their exhibition prospects are good?" ”

"Well, I think before 2ooo years...... No, it was 2oo4 years ago, they were definitely the best Internet search engine company in the world, I heard that the current Yahoo company is very short of money, and their two shareholders, Yang Zhiyuan and David. Ferro is trying to find a way to get investment, and I think this is a great opportunity for us. Lin Zheng didn't dare to say that Yahoo's market value at its peak was as high as $8oo dollars, and he was afraid of scaring Tan Na.

It is estimated that when this girl heard herself say that Yahoo's market value is as high as 8oo US dollars, she either thinks she is crazy or thinks she is crazy...... It's all crazy anyway.

"You're so optimistic about them?" Tan Na frowned, turned on the computer and checked it for a while, frowned and said to Lin Zheng, "Yahoo's revenue last year was only $350,000, and their company is now in a net loss state." ”

"When they make money, there's nothing to do with us, Cortana, and I decided to reach out to Yahoo and venture into them, what do you think? Well, if I'm not mistaken, it seems that Sequoia Capital is already in contact with them, and Sequoia Capital can look up to companies that can't be any worse, right? ”

"Huh? It's true," Tan Na exclaimed, "Sequoia Capital is in contact with them, you are right, since Sequoia Capital has taken a fancy to them, it means that their development potential is good, but will our rash past offend Sequoia Capital?" ”

Thinking of Sequoia Capital's huge influence in the American capital and financial circles, Tan Na said with some worry.

"As long as they haven't signed a contract, it doesn't matter, there's no law that says companies that Sequoia Capital contacts, and other companies can't be contacted until Sequoia Capital exits, right? And it's not a bad thing for Yahoo to have multiple options, and now I'm worried about just one thing: whether Yahoo has a deal with Sequoia Capital. ”

In the face of hundreds of millions of dollars in net profit that changes hands, who cares who Sequoia Capital is? Anyway, Lao Tzu is not short of money in his hands, so what if he is confused? What made Lin Zheng regret that he couldn't wait to bang his head against the wall was, why did he only think of this now?

Tan Na was directly speechless at Lin Zheng's words: That's Sequoia Capital, one of the largest venture capital companies in the United States and even in the world, Sequoia Capital is the fat that you dare to eat? But Tan Na did admit that since Sequoia Capital has been involved, it seems that this Yahoo company is indeed a piece of fat, since it is fat...... I don't care who you are Sequoia Capital, if you want to make money, don't we want to make money?

Thinking of this, Tan Na immediately made up her mind: "I'll contact Yahoo!" ”

――――――――――――――――――――――――

"David, we're running out of money," Yang Zhiyuan smiled bitterly at his partner, David, pulling the credit card in his hand that only had less than $1ooo left. "If Yahoo wants to go ahead, we have to find us a venture capitalist." ”

In March of this year, Yahoo! It has just been established, and before the company was officially established, Yang Zhiyuan and David. Fei Luo and his wife were ambitious enough to make a big career in the Internet field, but it wasn't until the company was established that their enthusiasm was almost crushed by the company's huge survival pressure: the company needed money to rent servers and bandwidth, the company's office had to pay rent, the company's employees had to open a company, and they had to live...... If an investment can't be finalized by the end of the month, Yahoo can be dissolved.

Last month, in April, Sequoia Capital, a well-known venture capital firm in Silicon Valley, approached itself and said that they could do it to Yahoo! made venture capital, but Sequoia Capital's conditions were too harsh, so harsh that Yang Zhiyuan could not bear it.

"Yang, we all believe in yahoo! The future is bright, and we will inevitably become the most successful Internet search engine, but no matter how bright the future is, we need to survive first, and only by living can we talk about the future," said David in the face of his stubborn partner. Fei Luo advised, "Although Sequoia Capital's conditions are harsh, they will not interfere in our operations, and it is a big deal that we can redeem the shares after making money in the future." ”

David has been influenced by American culture since childhood. Fei Luo, there is not much resistance to Sequoia Capital's approach, or that sentence, who let you have no money in your hands.

"Okay, you're right," Yang Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement with his partner's words, "The most important thing for us now is to ensure that we survive...... Try it one last time, and if they can't keep the price down, we'll agree to their terms. ”

“ok!” David breathed a sigh of relief, this stubborn guy finally agreed, and now he didn't expect to take this opportunity to lower Sequoia Capital's asking price, and it would be good if Sequoia Capital could put forward some more harsher conditions without taking advantage of Yahoo's predicament.

The two of them packed their clothes and were about to go out when the phone on the table rang suddenly......
