Chapter 45 Investing 20 million

The bedrooms of five-star hotels are filled with elegant fragrances, and Luo Ning is obviously the first time to stay in such an expensive hotel, but he seems to have long been used to it.

Luo Ning crossed Erlang's legs, if he had a cigar in his hand, then he would be no different from the financial predators in the movie.

"These fields do burn money, but that doesn't mean it doesn't make money."

Lin Xiaoxian looked at Luo Ning with a dull expression.

"If you want to say it, say it, what kind of pen to put it."

"Then I'll give you a free lesson."

"It's like I'm really eager to learn."

As she spoke, Lin Xiaoxian straightened her light pink skirt.

"Ahem, can you give the boss a face? It's all about the boom. ”

Luo Ning saw that Lin Xiaoxian did not leave, and put on a high-minded posture of a financial predator.

"The Internet economy is different from traditional industries, and once traditional industries lose money, it may mean losing money and going out of business."

"And the Internet economy can be said to be completely different in this regard, as long as your company is still valuable and in the rising stage, more capital will come to you."

"To put it simply, I'm investing in it now, and the company doesn't have a valuation right now, so the higher its valuation from now on, the more valuable my shares will be."

"Especially after going public, you may only need to sell one percent of the shares to recoup your capital."

"This is also a method of making money that many investors often use."

Lin Xiaoxian waved his hand.

"I understand the shareholders, and I ask how the company makes money."

"Like video sites, the company has been losing money, even if the shareholders have money, they should not be stupid enough to gamble all their wealth for the company."

"How to solve the salary of employees?"

Ronin then explained.

"The reason why I started my business is to make money."

"As for the company's operating costs, it is natural that the capital bears them."

"For investors, it doesn't matter if the company is profitable or not, investors value its future and market value more seriously."

"As long as the company's market value is still rising, even if there is no money in the account, as soon as the financing is raised, there will be capital rushing to send you money, and the working capital will naturally be solved."

Lin Xiaoxian nodded and said, "So, the big entertainment empire you just talked about is actually not profitable?" ”

"Nope."

Luo Ning immediately hesitated again, "Naturally make money, but I won't be able to tell you clearly for a while." ”

"Then why did you buy Bytetech first?"

Luo Ning piled up a puzzled face.

"Sister Xian'er, I now suspect that your resume is fake."

Lin Xiaoxian was suddenly unhappy.

"Hey! You said you want to engage in big entertainment, is there a difference between this byte technology and this? ”

Luo Ning sneered: "Ignorance. ”

"You ......"

"I ask you, you are a fruit farmer with 10,000 catties of apples, but! You are in a remote mountainous area and you want to sell your products, what should you do? ”

Lin Xiaoxian was even more annoyed, "Mr. Luo! Are you mocking me? ”

Luo Ning suddenly regained his composure.

"In this era, let alone companies, even individuals can't do without the media."

"I have the propaganda channels in my hands, and I am afraid that no one will play the game? Are you still afraid that no one will pay for comics and anime? ”

Lin Xiaoxian waved his hand indifferently, "Oh, it's too complicated, no matter, I'll just follow you anyway." ”

When it was time in the afternoon, Lin Xiaoxian greeted Zhang Yiming at the door.

Luo Ning looked at the stocks in the conference room and completed the final formalities with the financial company.

"Hello Mr. Zhang."

Zhang Yiming had a bright smile on his face when he saw Luo Ning.

"Mr. Luo is really a talent."

After some politeness, the meeting moved on to the topic.

At this meeting, although it was Zhang Yiming who was contacted by Lin Xiaoxian, Zhang Yiming didn't know that he had fallen into Luo Ning's routine, so Zhang Yiming came to seek financing, and Luo Ning was a high-ranking investor.

Zhang Yiming first introduced Byte Technology in detail, and then planned a grand future in a few short sentences.

"Then I'll open it up."

Luo Ning was not in a hurry and asked for it.

"Mr. Zhang, I won't tell you anything, I have been eyeing your company for a long time, of course, all because of your personal brilliance."

This sentence is a fart, but Luo Ning can't tell him that Lao Tzu is coming back in 2020.

Zhang Yiming politely greeted him.

Luo Ning asked Lin Xiaoxian to put the acquisition project book in front of Zhang Yiming's eyes.

"Mr. Zhang, I will invest 20 million to acquire 32% of your company's equity, what do you think?"

Zhang Yiming, who was holding the project book, was stunned, and the two eyeballs under the glasses moved after a while.

"Luo, Mr. Luo......"

Byte Technology has only raised two rounds to date, and the angel round plus the A round has only gotten a few million, and Luo Ning has taken out 20 million at one time, which is an astronomical amount for all start-up companies.

Luo Ning understood Zhang Yiming's excitement.

"The reason why I invested 20 million yuan is to help the company solve the copyright problem as soon as possible."

Zhang Yiming was stunned again, and then said with a wry smile: "Mr. Luo, you are prepared." ”

Zhang Yiming and his team are almost all technicians, there is no news department, most of the information in the software comes from the Internet, and the largest source of information is naturally the mainstream media. Not long after the launch of Toutiao Software, the media sent an indictment, which plunged the company into a whirlpool of copyright disputes.

Luo Ning said calmly: "With this money, Mr. Zhang can buy the copyright of all mainstream media in China in one go." ”

"Yes, in this way, you don't have to worry about lawsuits every day, hehe......"

Zhang Yiming breathed a long sigh of relief, and the stone that had been pressing on his chest was finally unloaded.

Luo Ning turned to say: "If it is just to help the company buy the copyright and continue to develop, I can only invest 10 million." ”

The hint in this sentence was too obvious, and Zhang Yiming couldn't help but put away his smile.

"Then may I ask, does Mr. Luo have any other requirements besides 32% of the equity?"

Luo Ning said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, don't worry, I don't have the idea of asking for the company's management rights. ”

"The company always belongs to you and your team, and of course, matters such as financing and listing still need to be discussed at meetings."

"It's just that there is a clause in the contract, Mr. Zhang must know, and Byte Technology has the responsibility and obligation to cooperate with the strategic deployment of Luowang Capital."

"This sentence is very simple, one second headline will become the largest information platform on mobile in the future, and when the time comes, it will be needed to help the company do some publicity."

"Other than that, I don't have any other requirements, the details are written in the contract."

Zhang Yiming was moved by Luo Ning's cheerfulness.

"Thank you Mr. Luo for your trust."

Next, the two chatted very happily, and then, Zhang Yiming promised to discuss with everyone when he went back and reply to Luo Ning as soon as possible.

Seeing that Zhang Yiming had the intention of leaving, Luo Ning left him behind.

"Mr. Zhang, I haven't said the second reason for investing 20 million yet."
