Chapter 551: Capital is not alone
What is an evening party?
For ordinary people, it is to eat, drink, and have fun, for Cadillac car owners to come to the book, it is to warm up before going to the foot washing city, and for the rich, it is the sophistication of human feelings, and those who have mutual enmity are looking for someone to mediate at this time, and those who want to do business with each other are looking for someone to pull the line.
After Tang Dao negotiated with Valentin, he just sat there all the time, and his table was the head table!
Including Apple Jobs, Atari Bushnell, Oracle's Ellison...
are all giants, at this time, Atari has just released a game console that can be online at the same time, occupying a large market share, and Bushnell is also worth skyrocketing, but Tang Dao knows that the later Atari fell directly from the cloud because of some micro-operations, and was beaten by Nintendo in the market to hide his face and cry, I am afraid that it will not be long before it will be sold.
Tang Dao stared at the slightly round-looking Bushnell, and he was wondering, should he buy it then?
Atari is also a world leader in program development!
Of course, he's looking at others, and everyone else is looking at him too.
Most of the people here are in their early forties, all of them are successful people, and they are all proud to be on the rich list in middle age, but this one who is almost a round younger than himself will inevitably have mixed feelings.
Besides, everyone here knows what he's doing, and you can't be tough with him.
An arms dealer worth $20 billion?!
Even if there was water in it, it would drown more than half of the people in the clubhouse.
His position is very eye-catching, Tang Dao looks calm when he sits, holding a wine glass in his right hand, and toasting to the bigwigs who are looking at him, and the atmosphere is also harmonious.
"Mr. Nicholas, you have a large stake in Yang's company?" Ellison didn't think so much when he sat next to him, and took the initiative to communicate with him, but this opening was the old capitalist, looking at him with bright eyes, "Are you interested in continuing to raise money?" ”
Tang Dao shook his head, "It's not for me to decide, you should ask Yang, he is the president of Yahoo." ”
His ability to kick the ball is becoming more and more superb, Ellison is obviously not very satisfied with this answer, Oracle is a product of the Internet, which makes him very optimistic about the Internet, thinking that the future world belongs to the Internet and intelligence, and Yahoo will definitely write a strong article in this history.
He didn't give up wanting to continue talking, and the most important thing was that others asked him.
Tang Dao spoke first, "I have some money in my hands, I don't know if Oracle still accepts financing?" ”
“??”
"The North American market is saturated enough, you need to look outside, the base of the Asian market is the future, if you wait for other companies to join, I'm afraid... You've lost the initiative. ”
Ellison has vision and vision, of course he knows, but there is not much money left in his hand to "open up", and the market needs to be smashed with money, like the later Three Musketeers of Takeaway, hundreds of millions of funds are smashed every day, and in the end, billions are just a float, and the more you get to the end, the less valuable the money is.
If you don't have the first place to occupy the market share, it's not so easy to get back.
Like "Transsion", the king of mobile phones in Africa!
Sequoia Capital and other investors are reluctant to invest more money in him, the most important thing is that they don't think that so much money will be smashed, and the final return is geometric growth, and even a professional institution evaluates that Oracle has reached the top, and it is difficult to raise the ceiling again, unless there are some inventions that can change the industry, of course, capital is gambling, but it is impossible to add unreality to the big gamble.
So, Valentine refused to reinvest.
So at this time, someone approached him, hoping that he could tell Tang Dao and let him give up some Yahoo shares, and when the time came, Ellison could get an investment, but damn it, Ellison didn't know Tang Dao at all, so he could only take the opportunity of this party to ask, who knew that he was asked rhetorically.
"How much can you give?" Ellison asked.
Tang Dao laughed, "How can you talk about business like this, how many shares can you make, we have to do a good job and talk, make an appointment, find a good lawyer, and have afternoon tea together." ”
Ellison also felt that he was right, this business had to be slow and meticulous, and he nodded, "Then I'll arrange it." ”
The two exchanged business cards, and after that, Ellison didn't bother him anymore.
The party is actually very simple, it is Yang Zhiyuan's speech, this is a notice meeting before Yahoo goes public, the reason why so many people can come, mainly because of the shares, and there is Mr. Tang Dao's 20 billion yuan, he has received many business cards in his hand, and everyone hopes to have business dealings with him.
Wall Street has never rejected capital.
At the party, he was the busiest, and people kept coming up to toast, and after a few sips, he was still a little brainy, but his mouth was still very rocky, and many people wanted to get some wealth out of his mouth, but he beat him up.
It wasn't until after nine o'clock in the evening that the party dispersed.
Just as Tang Dao was about to leave, Valentine came over, leaned into his ear and said, "I'll be able to give you news tomorrow at the earliest." ”
"Looking forward to your good news." Tang Dao smiled and nodded, this was a little disgusting, the alcohol was too exciting, Valentine patted him on the shoulder, "If you have money, everyone will make money, and no one will target you, and the strong elephant will always be found by the hunter one day." ”
He dropped this sentence and left, which can be regarded as a piece of advice from his predecessors.
But Tang Dao has long understood that capital never needs to fight alone!
After Valentine left, Yang Zhiyuan came to the door again, and the first thing he said was to ask for money, "Boss, I want to invest another 70 million US dollars, I need a strategic layout." ”
To give!
Tang Dao is very angry, as long as the investment company is up, he can legally raise funds and then invest in Yahoo.
He was sure that Valentine would agree!
No, it should be said that the gang of consortiums behind him will definitely agree.
……
Jack. Kennedy was excited.
He finally negotiated with Valentine, more than 10% of the shares in his hand will be transferred to the other party, worth 8.22 million US dollars, this price does not seem cheap now, but everyone is smart people, and they all know that there will definitely be more than that after listing!
But Jack thinks that even if Yahoo can go public, it won't be much, at most it will make tens of millions? The family didn't need the money, they needed a re-emerging ally, and he got what he wanted, and Valentine said that he had received the friendship of the Kennedy family, including the Jews behind it, and he would definitely receive it.
In exchange for support, it is impossible to take over the tens of millions of dollars that are impossible for Lai.
Jack thinks he's earned!
At least that's what he thinks.
Standing in the distance, he glanced at Tang Dao, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said to Charlie beside him, "I'll go first, I'm a little tired." ”
Charlie was stunned, "Aren't you waiting for Mr. Nicholas to go with you?" ”
Jack shook his head, "I'm a little too tired, so I'm not waiting for him." ”
Looking at the back of him leaving, Charlie always felt that something was wrong, this Jack seemed to be a different person, no! It should have become a lot of ideas, after all, it is also a family that has been the leader of several times, and now it is unacceptable to be trapped in Boston.
But Charlie doesn't think it's a good option for him to leave the consortium.
It's still too tender, I always think that capital will choose to cooperate with you...
Why can't people take advantage of you and then abandon you?
