Chapter 361

Under Zhang Zhonghua's promise to increase the money and his repeated urgings, and because the people of the ugly country have not yet thought that "wealth cannot be lewd" as they did in the new century, the construction of the office building of YH Software Company was finally completed ahead of schedule.

All YH Software staff have finally moved from rented office space to a new company address, and the Santa Clara headquarters of YH Software may even be the building of the Jade Emperor Group's headquarters in the Americas has finally been completed.

Henry Morey looked at the company's headquarters and was shocked speechless, our company plus clerks is less than 400 people in total, as for the boss to build such a big place, the per capita area has reached more than 3 acres, what kind of spacious office environment is this.

Is the Jade Emperor Group so arrogant, Henry Morey felt that he had to hold on to this thick thigh.

"There is a temporary residence for the company's employees in the park, and at present, our company can't use such a large amount of land to let everyone live first, and in the future, the company will have more staff, and it will also be demolished."

Zhang Zhonghua explained to Henry.

Of course, those apartments are prepared for the single dogs in Zhang Zhonghua's company, and everyone can deal with them when they recruit people in the future, and the land is so big that it can't be used, but it can't be wasted.

"Boss, the area of this office is too big, what should I do if there are so many empty spaces?"

Henry Morey asked, thinking to himself that the boss wouldn't be so arrogant as he was.

"Well, we can rent the vacated office to some small companies, which can also provide them with some convenient conditions, and at the same time, the group headquarters will also set up a venture fund, and if we find a suitable project, the group can also participate in the investment."

Zhang Zhonghua is not a heart burst, seeing that small companies are struggling to survive, so help them.

Moreover, he is ready to set up a venture capital company, and looking for potential companies in these small companies is Zhang Zhonghua's biggest goal.

There are too many computer-related giants such as the future Internet in Stanford Industrial Park and Silicon Valley, and he is going to set up the first venture capital company in Silicon Valley.

If he can invest in dozens or hundreds of angel rounds of companies, as long as a small part can come out, then he will make a lot of money.

Zhang Zhonghua can provide a good working environment for those companies and promote the rapid development of the technology industry, so that everyone does not have to work hard to start a business in the garage like many companies, and directly ask me to invest, and ask to support the development of the computer industry.

"It's really good to set up a venture capital, if we can tap some potential companies, we can also recover thousands of times the return after the company goes public."

Henri Moremore thought about it for a while and agreed with Zhang Zhonghua's idea.

He found that the boss was really powerful, no wonder the company was built so big and beautiful, and that park alone could attract many companies to settle in.

"Boss, what's the name of the VC firm?"

Zhang Zhonghua heard the name and had a big head for a while, he was named invalid, and it was definitely not good to directly Jade Emperor Capital, it was obviously Yanxia Company.

Of course, the venture capital company should be registered in an overseas offshore paradise, or should it not use the name of the venture capital company that already existed later?

For example, Masayoshi Son's SoftBank? If he continues to set up a company in the future, he will come up with other names, such a good name can be thought of, and he will definitely be able to think of other good names.

Masayoshi Son, I'm optimistic about you!!

And how good the name SoftBank is, simple and atmospheric, others can understand it as soon as they hear it.

"The venture capital company is called SoftBank Capital, which is a software bank."

Zhang Zhonghua said.

Henry Morey and Dimitri Zverev looked at each other, they thought the name was very good, their boss was a super software genius, and the use of this name was very suitable for the boss's outstanding ability.

Venture capital, also known as VC, is also known as venture capital, which is mainly to provide funds to those start-up small businesses to obtain some shares of these small companies.

Of course, most of the funds of venture capital companies are used to invest in new ventures or unlisted companies, and only invest in companies without interfering in the daily operations of the company, of course, venture capital companies also need to provide professional knowledge and experience, and help companies go public.

Of course, it's not that your rich family will accept your investment, just like a nouveau riche coal boss who invests in Lao Ma's Ali, Lao Ma will basically not accept the investment of the nouveau riche no matter how short of money he is.

Accepting your investment will not attract customers to increase visibility, nor will it help the company to expand the market.

If you invest in Brother Xiaoma, you may get a little share, because Brother Xiaoma's news is to have users, and to be famous is a pure lack of money, but it will also be kicked away after the company develops, and venture capital will finally help the company to help.

And Zhang Zhonghua is undoubtedly a super tycoon, and he is also an excellent computer practitioner, isn't it easy to provide some professional knowledge;

Zhang Zhonghua's Jade Emperor Group is also operating and developing in many fields, and its experience is even more meaningful.

With the blessing of Zhang Zhonghua, YH Software and Jade Emperor Group, SoftBank Capital's reputation in Silicon Valley must be leveraged.

The reason why venture capital is called venture capital is because there is a lot of uncertainty in venture capital, which brings a lot of risk to the investment and its returns.

The risk of venture capital is not worth mentioning for Zhang Zhonghua, not to mention eight out of ten shots, as long as he catches a future unicorn, he will make a lot of money.

For well-known companies in Silicon Valley, Zhang Zhonghua has heard of it, if not a few treasures.

The world's well-known venture capital companies Defengjie, Chouguo International Data, Carlyle Investment, KPCB, IDG Capital, Sequoia Capital, DCM Ventures, Jingwei Ventures, etc., are now established How many Zhang Zhonghua is not clear, but Chouguo may be the most successful venture capital company Sequoia Capital will not be established until a few years later.

His own SoftBank capital has a promising future, and I don't know if he can beat Goldman Sachs in the future, but that kid from Masayoshi Son is estimated to have little chance.

Speaking of venture capital, Zhang Zhonghua thinks of private equity investment, which is also often referred to as PE.

Private equity investment is an equity investment in a non-listed company through a private equity fund.

In the process of implementing the transaction, PE will take into account the future exit mechanism, that is, the company's initial public offering, mergers and acquisitions or management buybacks.

To put it simply, PE investment is PE investors looking for excellent high-growth unlisted companies, injecting capital into them, obtaining a certain percentage of their shares, promoting the company's development and listing, and then making a profit through the transfer of equity.

In layman's terms, an unlisted company sells some of its original shares to some well-known international structures, with the aim of raising the issue price and creating a better listing when the company IPO.

VC is the company's investment in enterprises in the seed, start-up, development, expansion, maturity and pre-IPO stages;

PE mainly refers to the private equity investment in mature enterprises that have formed a certain scale and generate stable cash flow, and mainly refers to the private equity investment in the later stage of venture capital.

Think about it decades later, as soon as you enter a company, the boss starts drawing flatbread to feed chicken soup.

Of course, there are also some companies that are super awesome, and venture capital companies are about to cry, A round, B round, C round, D round, E round, F round, thinking about the Z round to be listed.

In the field of venture capital, what Zhang Zhonghua admires most is Lao Jia, who can really fool, and only rely on PPT to fool a large number of investors, but he patted his ass and ran away.

YH Software, which settled in the new office location, also held a grand opening ceremony, inviting many companies and institutions in San Francisco to come, and some of these well-known companies and institutions arrived, and the whole opening ceremony was still relatively grand.

Stanford University, the University of San Francisco, the University of California, Berkeley, Santa Clara and other universities sent many representatives of computer schools, and IBM and Wang An Computer sent flower baskets at the same time.

The three founders of Intel, Robert Noyins, Gordon Moore, and Andy Grove, came in person, and several publishing houses also sent people from their branches to congratulate them.

Robert Noyins, Gordon Moore, and Andy Grove looked at the huge company and secretly envied, their Intel company was really shabby across the road, there was no harm without comparison, and there was a chance to build a building.

"Random House Publishing House, Pearson Education Group, these publishing houses are also here, and the opening battle of YH is too big! What do you have to do with YH software? ”

Andy Grove couldn't help but say as he looked at a few familiar faces in the distance.

"Andy, don't forget that Zhang Zhonghua has not only published three textbooks on the IMF database, the UNIX system and the C language, but he is also a world-renowned author, and his is a bestseller all over the world."

Gordon Moore said enviously, is it really good for a science fiction writer to cross over to work on computers?

"Yes, he may earn tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars a year just by virtue of the copyrights of these books and textbooks.

And the headquarters he built, the purchase of land and the cost of construction are only 40 million US dollars, which is not a lot of money for him at all. ”

Robert Noyins introduced Zhang Zhonghua's royalty income, and his eyes were full of envy.

Gordon Moore and Andy Grove felt a sour feeling in their hearts, and the profits of many listed companies in the ugly country may not be as high as Zhang Zhonghua's royalty income in a year.

Zhang Zhonghua took everyone to visit the park first, and the representatives of each company saw that they were scolding their mothers for a while, the whole park in the company is such a big park, and there are single apartments, this environment is too comfortable.

There are also basketball courts, badminton courts, tennis courts, baseball courts, and even golf courses and football fields.

Later, under the leadership of Zhang Zhonghua, everyone visited the company's office area, and the office area made everyone a little crazy.

The R&D center with an area of nearly 200 acres, there are only more than 300 technicians in YH Software Company, and the R&D center of one acre can meet the needs.

The most excessive thing is that the office area not only has a kitchenette, but also provides a variety of snacks and drinks for free, is YH Software so good?

The representative of IBM was also a little surprised, Zhang Zhonghua's YH Software Company has more snacks and drinks than IBM, but YH has more than 300 people, providing snacks and drinks but it is very simple.

"Mr. Zhang Zhonghua, with so many vacant offices, is this going to be rented out?"

In the eyes of many people, Zhang Zhonghua is a super tycoon, and he should not look down on that bit of rent, and the licensing fee for the C language is a lot of money every year, not to mention that the sales of the IMF database are also good.

"Yes. I would rent out half of the space at a relatively low price to help small businesses that were just starting out.

Many companies started out in the harsh environment of a garage, and the unused office here provides convenience for some companies.

At the same time, I also plan to set up a venture capital firm here to help those valuable companies get out of the financial difficulties and get on the right track as soon as possible. ”

Zhang Zhonghua feels as if he is an angel in white, he is really a kind-hearted entrepreneur, philanthropist, helping the needy, and a moral model.

However, Zhang Zhonghua's posture made many people can't help but keep slandering, if you want to play venture capital, why are you so noble?

However, even if you win a thousand times and earn it back, the loss of pressing the wrong treasure is also a small amount of money for you. As long as one of the ten projects is successful, you won't lose money.

No one thinks that Zhang Zhonghua's vision will be so bad that he will invest ten to hit the street, and then he can use it as a dark lamp in the industry.

The three founders of Interman were shocked when they heard Zhang Zhonghua's words, and Robert Noyins, Gordon Moore, and Andy Grove looked at each other with a little smile on their faces.

Intel's initial capital is only $2.5 million, and it will continue to recruit talent and set up a wafer company in the future, which seems to be just a drop in the bucket.

Intel's Series A financing would be good if Zhang Zhonghua's VC company was invited to participate, and everyone who is so familiar with it will definitely help increase the company's valuation.

No one is going to be intrigued by Intel, but the Intel founding trio is trying to keep it simple.

If Intel has a major shareholder of Yanxia people, then the huge resistance to the future listing can be imagined, and the result is that either the listing fails, or Zhang Zhonghua is swept away before the listing.

And although Intel is still in the soy sauce stage, it will develop and grow sooner or later in the future, and then cooperate with the military industry of the ugly country.

Even if Zhang Zhonghua is interested in Intel, it is estimated that he will not be able to start if he wants to invest, and he may be restricted from leaving the country by the government of the ugly country.

The opening ceremony of YH company began soon, and Henry Morey, CEO of YH Software, also introduced the company's new product - CAD software, and the new design concept still attracted great attention.

YH Software's CAD software is an integrated system, and it is easy to install the required auxiliary modules on the common basic version.

CAD software has been developed in the fields of architectural design, electronic and electrical, mechanical design, clothing industry, publishing industry, civil engineering and architecture, etc., and is still entering various subdivisions, that is, general and professional, and the effect is still good.
