The dinner officially began at 7 p.m. The staff of Pen% Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Facebook came in twos and threes, and slowly filled the venue of the dinner.

Tang Liyang confessed his guilt, walked into the employee group and chatted with everyone. It can be seen that he is very popular among the programmer-based Facebook members, and no matter which small circle he joins, he chats happily.

Zhao Mingyu accompanied the side to introduce that the company will regularly hold such small banquets, employees are the main force, and some partners will be invited to participate, the company believes that this form can increase the tacit understanding and interaction between employees. "Our employees have a wide range of interests, whether Mr. Chen is interested in chatting with them, if they knew that the author of the small card software is here, it is estimated that they would have come around a long time ago."

"Okay." Chen Wenhao picked up a bottle of beer on the table and prepared to participate.

"Mr. Chen?" Someone behind him stopped him.

Chen Wenhao paused and looked at the two foreigners who stopped him with questioning eyes. One foreigner is very tall, close to 1.9 meters by eye, and the other is half a head shorter, 1.75 meters. Although the two stood together, there was a gap between them for one more person.

"I'm Kevin from AccelPartners, and it's a pleasure to meet you." A tall foreigner introduces himself.

David of GreylockPartners. Your software products are the hottest topic in Silicon Valley right now. The shorter foreigner said.

Tang Liyang didn't know when he came over, "Dear Chen, these are the new friends I talked about earlier. The company they worked for invested in Facebook before it went public, and they still have a close relationship with each other. ”

As he spoke, the music of the banquet suddenly changed to a piece of rock music, and the venue became noisy.

Tang Liyang took the opportunity to hold Chen Wenhao's shoulders and whispered, "The whole world knows about your cooperation with us, and the venture capitalists in Silicon Valley are about to boil." The bosses of the two families contacted Mark directly, hoping that Facebook could help with the match. And both of them flew in from the United States overnight. Chen, you wouldn't mind, would you? ”

Chen Wenhao rolled his eyes in his heart, these two people are standing in front of my eyelids, you just asked me if I mind, it's too unreliable.

But Chen Wenhao really didn't mind in his heart, to put it exaggeratedly, it was like someone giving him a pillow when he was sleeping. The financial world can't hide secrets, and the industry should know that he just said "no" to so many well-known venture capitalists not long ago, and many venture capital institutions should put him on the list of keeping an eye on him, rather than continuing to contact him now.

After all, the benefits brought by small card translation software make him seem to be not short of money. If you are a little rich, it is enough to keep the small card translation software, there is almost no cost compared to the income, and it is faster to make money than to grab money.

This is a completely different situation from most start-up Internet companies, there is no capital gap to continue to grow, and there is no urgent pressure that it is difficult to make profits in the short term. For any business, it is a dream "cash cow".

However, only Chen Wenhao himself knows how short of money he is compared to the goal to be achieved, otherwise there would be no trip to Xiangjiang. It is precisely because of Facebook's help that these two venture capital funds that are closely related to Facebook smell different.

When I asked Facebook for help, Chen Wenhao just said that he wanted to find a good law firm, preferably an international team, to help deal with some of the company's legal affairs. He believed that there was no problem on Norton Roche's side, and the people who talked to him today had signed a non-disclosure agreement, and Norton Roche could not joke with his reputation. A law firm has lost its reputation, and it is not far from going out of business.

Obviously, then, they are making judgments based on the information they have. After all, deliberately going to Xiangjiang to deal with legal affairs is very reminiscent of registering an overseas offshore company. Otherwise, Jianghai City, as an important financial town in China, also has many well-known law firms settled in, so why bother.

The further Lenovo is that this company is going to start a new business or adjust its equity, no matter which, the venture capital has expressed great interest, which is why there are representatives of the two venture capital companies that appear here so accurately.

The awareness rate of these two venture capitalists in China may not be very high, but Chen Wenhao happens to pay more attention to venture capital, especially venture capital companies that focus on the IT industry, because of his profession. He knows very well that if he says out about his treatment today, it will make countless entrepreneurs in the United States envious, jealous and hateful.

In Silicon Valley, both are among the top venture capital firms in the industry. Accel was the sole participant in Facebook's second round of funding in 2005, and its vision and determination were top-notch, with more than $125 billion in capital under management. Greylock is the most discerning and best-performing venture capital in the Internet industry in the past five years.

Chen Wenhao couldn't help but secretly admire that these two companies can achieve their current success, and they are indeed famous. Relying on such a little information and judgment, he did not hesitate to use his relationship with Facebook, and indeed sent a representative to come. If they want to know that they are in the process of restructuring their company, just to meet the venture capital, they will probably have to flip three heels in a row (if they can do it) to vent their excitement.

Of course, the matter of offshore companies and structural adjustment has just begun, and Chen Wenhao naturally can't say a word. From the perspective of business negotiation, in fact, the same principle is the same as falling in love: what is too easy to get is not easy to cherish.

There are a lot of ideas to write down, but they only take a few seconds to spin in your head.

Chen Wenhao also grabbed Tang Liyang's shoulders with his hand, and also whispered, "Facebook works so hard, is it just because of the situation?" ”

Tang Liyang smiled like an old fox, "Mark told me that Facebook is very willing to cooperate with you more intimately, cash or stocks, no problem." I often visit the Internet sites in the mainland, and in popular Internet language, it is - please hug your thighs, please take them with you. ”

Chen Wenhao felt goosebumps all over his body, and hurriedly let go of his hand and left Tang Liyang one step away, this kind of words is excellent for a young girl, but you are a bald rough man in his forties who can stand it.

Tang Liyang didn't think it was wrong, and laughed. He saw Kevin and David coming over, so he proposed, "Let's talk in a different place, I know there's a good place here, and it's also the most popular lounge with an invincible sea view, and the sound insulation is better." ”

The others had no opinion, so they followed Tang Liyang to a room, about 40 square meters in size, with two luxurious full-body massage beds, and the front of the line of sight was 180 degrees of large transparent floor-to-ceiling glass, and the window was the bright night view of Victoria Harbour. Close the door, and the sound of music is cut out.

Chen Wenhao chose a bed to sit on at random, and talked to others with one another. No matter how others tempted, he had a "procrastination trick", that is, he did not show his true attitude.

Kevin and David talked about the topic for a while, but they didn't get any useful information, they looked at each other helplessly, and they couldn't wait to throw each other downstairs, there were competitors present, and it was inconvenient to say a lot of things.

Tang Liyang stood aside with a smile on his face, looking like he didn't care about himself, and couldn't help but let the two of them scold the old fox secretly.

Kevin cleared his throat and decided to cut to the chase, after all, he flew for more than ten hours overnight, and he didn't rush to Xiangjiang to chat.

At this time, Chen Wenhao, who had not spoken much, stood up, "Have you ever heard of the word 'chance'?" ”

Without waiting for an answer, he continued, "In the Chinese Buddhist texts, there are two explanations for chance, and I like this explanation very much—the relationship that I used to form in the past, now when it is ripe, that is, when the opportunity has come. ”

He smiled and said to a few foreigners who were a little confused, "I know what you want, but let's be patient and wait for the opportunity." ”

declined Tang Liyang's proposal to send a car, Chen Wenhao left Facebook, and he still had a dark feeling of pretending to succeed, let you play a surprise attack for me, and let you dry for a few days, if only you could toss and turn and stay awake at night.
