374. Between men
Compared with the brilliance created by later generations, what is this investment now?
Li Yifan, as a person who has come over, knows very well that the prestige of this leakage network after more than ten years is not comparable with that of foreign countries, but in China, the annual transaction volume of this website can easily exceed one trillion yuan.
Although at that time, the leakage network was also adopting a no-fee model, but it formed such a transaction scale, just the annual cooperation with banks, as well as advertisers' advertising on this website, can make the website easily more than 10 billion yuan per year.
So now don't talk about investing 50 million, even if you invest 500 million, Li Yifan will admit it.
And now only a few people realize the power of e-commerce, and even many people still don't value it, or don't understand what e-commerce is.
Ten years is enough time for e-commerce to bring a revolutionary change to the current business operation model.
At present, the domestic Internet model is not yet mature, and private computers are still high-end commodities, and they have not really entered thousands of households.
In the past three years, with the development of electronic technology, private computers are no longer high-flying and valuable, when he began to enter thousands of households, that time is the real C2C model, the time for great development.
After entering that era, this leakage from the C2C model will usher in several times or even more than ten times growth every year, and that time is the time for real fame and fortune.
So as long as you endure it for a few years, when the harvest comes, it will be compared with the sky-high profit at that time. Any investment is worth it now.
I want it in a few years, though. A bumper harvest was ushered in. There is also a very important premise, that is, we must fight the current eBay network, only by putting it down, in the future, the network can be in the C2C field, ushering in a dominant pattern.
Now eBay is not so active, now it belongs to the international C2C industry overlord E-BAY in the domestic pioneer, the Americans have a lot of money, and they have money in their hands. And now at this stage, it is the most critical time for both sides to fight for funds and internal friction.
Whoever can stand up in the early stage and force the other party out of this market will be able to obtain the fruits of the biggest part of the victory in a few years.
In the last life, when C2C e-commerce developed in China, if Li Yifan remembered correctly, in the first few years, it was actually eBay that had been suppressing the leakage network founded by Wang Teng.
Even in 2003, Wang Teng took out 100 million yuan in a high-profile manner and announced that he would enter the C2C industry. In the years since they set up Leak Pickup, they haven't been able to get anything out of eBay.
After all, eBay is the first C2C website in China. Moreover, with the financial support of the Americans, it can be said that they have been operating in this field for many years, laying a very solid foundation, and there are many registered merchants and fixed consumers, which are the result of the cultivation of the market in the early stage.
Although the nets and eBay were once bayonets and they were happy to fight, the two sides have been entangled for many years before they were able to divide the winner.
There are two key factors in this, one of which is the free merchant policy adopted by Leak Network, that is, we will not charge any fees for stores that come to our website to open outlets.
And eBay is the fee system, it is this seemingly inconspicuous policy, but Zuihou has become the key to the victory or defeat of both sides.
The Yankees are too greedy to eat mutton before they can fatten the sheep, and another point is that they are really muttering about the sensitivity of the Chinese people to cost prices.
And the second factor is that it is time for the Americans to be unlucky, who let their financial giants make the financial crisis a few years later?
This led to the fact that the capital chain of E-BAY was once tightened at that time, and the assets also shrank greatly, and zuihou and the competition between eBay and the leak network in China have fallen into full disadvantage, and zuihou Americans had to tear up and sell eBay.
After that, the C2C commercial website in China has become a dominant pattern of picking up leaks.
Thinking of the ever-changing shopping malls and battlefields more than ten years later, Li Yifan was excited, the more he invested now, the more returns he would have in the future, so when Wang Teng and he wanted to invest another 50 million, he agreed without any hesitation.
But when he asked Wang Teng how much he planned to invest this time, Wang Teng was a little embarrassed.
It turns out that in the past two years, although the Forty Thieves Website has made a lot of money for Wang Teng, but all this money has been invested in the expansion of the Forty Thieves Website, and now he has to make additional investments to pick up the leak network, but he really doesn't have much living money in his hands, and the total is only more than 10 million, compared with the 50 million that Li Yifan wants to invest, it is really a small thing.
"What's wrong? Brother Wang, you don't have it very convenient? ”
Li Yifan looked at Wang Teng's expression, and had already guessed a rough idea, after all, the current Wang Teng is just Wang Teng in the initial stage of entrepreneurship, and he is not the Wang Teng who has changed in the future and is worth hundreds of millions.
Now that his two websites are growing rapidly, and there are places to use money everywhere, it is really difficult for him to come up with so much at once.
"Well, Brother Xiao Li, I won't tell you, your brother Wang and I are really donkey dung eggs on the surface, it looks like I am very beautiful, and I can be a successful entrepreneur everywhere, but to be honest, I really don't have much money in my pocket now! The money earned by the forty thieves was all smashed into this company, and I scraped together more than 10 million ......."
Speaking of this, Wang Teng's face was very embarrassed.
It turned out that when he founded this leakage website, at the beginning, he was just out of Jishuliliang, and his team, which was also counted as the company's assets, and in terms of start-up capital, he relied on Li Yifan's 30 million, and he didn't pay much money at all.
At that time, the two of them divided the company's shares into five or five accounts, and he felt that it was okay at that time, after all, Li Yifan just came up with a few ideas and took money, but in terms of the company's specific operation and execution, he relied on his own team, and he plus his own team was completely worth the price.
And now the company has been developing for more than a year, although it is a little famous, but it is still early to make a profit, and now it is necessary to invest more in it, and he can't get the money, and he has to invest 50 million in it, if Li Yifan invests in the 50 million, then how should the company's shares be divided?
To put it bluntly, Wang Teng is also a very controlling person, otherwise he would not have been so tough when he negotiated financing with investment institutions on the Forty Thieves website.
He really doesn't want to lose control of this company, although Xiao Li usually doesn't come to the company at all, and he doesn't come to politics, but he still doesn't want to lose the company's shares, after all, the company's prospects, but he is very optimistic about haode.
Seeing Wang Teng's somewhat embarrassed expression, Li Yifan understood, he was embarrassed, to put it bluntly, this Brother Wang wanted to pay for himself, but he didn't want to lose his equity in the company.
It seems that it is a bit of a dead take advantage of the situation and do not suffer losses, but Li Yifan thinks about it, in fact, since the establishment of this network company, he has not appeared in the company a few times at all, let alone the operation and management of the company, and I am afraid that in the future, after a long time, it will be the same, he will not participate in the company's operation, and what he is waiting for is only the future harvest.
It's like a man, who sowed seeds at the beginning, but after the child was born, he ran away, and the child has been raised by his mother for 20 years, and when the child grows up, this person comes back to enjoy the blessings of his children and grandchildren, and when the cheap father comes, it seems a little immoral.
So at this time, it is nothing to invest more, at least it can make people like Wang Teng who are in the company's operation and management feel a little more balanced.
Thinking of this, Li Yifan smiled, and then said to Wang Teng.
"Brother Wang, if you have difficulties at hand, then this time it will be like this, this time invest 50 million, I will contribute, you will take care of it, and then the proportion of shares between us and us will remain unchanged. And now this development model of picking up the leak net, I think it may not be profitable in a few years, and we have to continue to invest money in it, so let's wait until next year, I will not contribute, and you will invest next year, and then the shares of both of us will continue to remain unchanged, what do you think? ”
Li Yifan's generosity made Wang Teng a little stunned, but also very moved.
In these years, where can you find someone who invests 50 million yuan for you to spend and doesn't need a penny of interest? If it weren't for people's sincerity, then you would be a buddy and a good friend, and there would be such a good thing?
And even if it's a good buddy, a good friend, if it's tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, it may not bother with you, but this is 50 million, put it in the bank, and the interest alone is millions a year, but people take it out like this, and they don't ask for more shares with themselves, this friendship ......"
"Yifan, don't say anything, everything else is here......"
Although there were no old-fashioned tears in his grateful eyes, Wang Teng's eyes were also bright at this time, and he didn't say anything grandiose, just patted his chest......
Between men, sometimes it really doesn't take much language......
"Haha, Brother Wang, if you want to xiexie me, then I implore you to run this website of ours, so that you can get enough dividends for me when the time comes, then it is better than anything else......"
"Yifan, just put your heart in your stomach." (To be continued.) )
