Chapter 131: Climb up the pole and swell Gu

"Mr. Gu, do you want to come with me to sit in the front?

Since Mr. Gu is interested in getting involved in the investment circle, I can take you to meet some capital parties who have been active in our country all year round.

Although some people say that peers are enemies, this sentence is not suitable in the capital circle, and the most taboo in our industry is to eat alone, so if there are any good projects, everyone is willing to share, such as this Byte Leap. ”

Zhao Kegou smiled solemnly at Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng listened to Zhao Kegou's words, didn't say much, and smiled.

With the rise of his status, Gu Cheng also knows some unspoken rules in the capital circle, once he encounters a really good project, the major companies in the capital circle will really do as Zhao Kewei said, not eat alone, but will do their best to pull other companies to share the cake together.

In fact, there are only two main reasons.

Nothing more than to share the risk. It's because after more capital joins, even if the project itself is not so high-quality, if there is a large amount of capital behind it, the building will not collapse so quickly... There are many examples of such investments in China and abroad.

After all, for big capital, it is always more difficult not to lose money than to make money. So more often than not, they would rather share the cake and make less money than take a huge risk to eat alone.

As for the other point, it is easier to understand.

None of them.

Compared with those companies that are waiting to be fed, they are the capital parties who have common interests.

For example, this time, Byte Leap directly came up with a set of bidding and financing routines, just hoping that the capital parties would compete for a bloody battle, and then raise their valuations.

But Sequoia and CCB are not fools.

Of course, it's impossible for Bytes to play however they want.

It is estimated that after Gu Cheng passes, he will immediately be pulled into the united front of the capital side.

...............

"Excuse me, everyone, but I'll introduce you to a friend."

On the two huge sofas in the center of the Executive Lounge, there are several middle-aged men in suits and leather shoes, all tall, short, fat and thin, but no matter what their size, they all have one thing in common...

That's the elitist vibe that inadvertently emanates.

No matter what the occasion, these elders are the objects of crowding.

Originally, there was a burst of hearty laughter from time to time, but after hearing Zhao Kegou's voice, they all turned their attention to Gu Cheng and Zhao Kegou.

Being looked at by such a large group of elders, Gu Cheng was also a little uncomfortable, but his expression did not change in the slightest.

Still smiling and calm.

For an average young man in his 20s, in such an occasion, let alone acting calmly, he can stand firm.

In the final analysis, it was the system that gave Gu Cheng the capital to care for anyone.

"Let me introduce to you, this is Gu Cheng, Mr. Gu, and the chairman of Gray Rhino Capital.

I believe you also know that Gray Rhino Capital injected 2.5 billion soft sister coins a few days ago, right? This is Mr. Gu's handiwork.

In addition, Mr. Gu is also the top customer of our CCB, not to mention me, even our president has to be respectful. ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone turned their eyes to Gu Cheng's face.

Although his reputation is not obvious in front of ordinary people, Gu Cheng is still a little famous in the Huaguo capital circle.

Imagine the Chinese network

Especially a few days ago, Gray Rhino Capital injected 2.5 billion yuan, and this news caused a lot of splashes in the capital circle.

More than 2.5 billion?

In fact, in the eyes of large capital, it is not too much.

But it's not less.

Among these elders in front of him, the highest status is none other than Shen Peng, the head of Sequoia Capital (Huaguo).

But even for a figure of Shen Peng's level, his net worth is only more than 20 billion, and even the total amount of funds managed by the well-known Sequoia Capital (Huaguo) is only a few billion US dollars.

So when Zhao Kegou said that Gu Cheng was the controller of Gray Rhino Capital, except for Shen Peng, the expression of an old man who had not changed much, and the others were slightly shocked.

There is no other reason, the main reason is that Gu Cheng is too young.

Maybe it's not as big as the son of one of the elders here.

How can a young man who can grasp such a huge amount of wealth at such an age be a simple person? For a while, he also had the intention of making friends, but the real elder Shen Peng didn't speak, and everyone wouldn't trespass, so the scene became a little embarrassing.

Just when Zhao Kewei was about to continue to enliven the atmosphere, Shen Peng stood up from the sofa, picked up two goblets that had already been poured red wine, and walked up to Gu Cheng with a smile on his face and handed him a glass of red wine.

Seeing Gu Cheng take the red wine, the smile on Shen Peng's face softened again.

"Is Old Man Gu okay now?"

Gu Cheng didn't guess that Shen Peng was his second grandfather as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted: "Thank you Mr. Shen for your concern, it's good." ”

To be honest, Gu Cheng had never met Gu Hebang once except for the time he saw Gu Hebang when he made a wish.

So what Gu Hebang's body is, he really doesn't know.

But in any case, in the eyes of outsiders, his most awesome identity is still the identity of the heir of Chuangsheng Group, compared to injecting 2.5 billion yuan into Gray Rhino Capital, this identity is obviously too awesome.

"I used to work in the Trauson Group for a period of time before starting a business, and Mr. Gu took good care of me, even if he came out to start a business later, he gave me a lot of help, if you don't mind, just call me Uncle Shen."

"Uncle Shen."

After listening to Shen Peng's words, Gu Cheng didn't even hesitate, and shouted directly.

With such a quick reaction, not to mention everyone in the field, even Shen Peng was a little caught off guard.

However, this point does not matter at all to Gu Cheng, whose skin is as thick as a city wall.

It's just an uncle.

It's not a father.

As a business leader ranked 35th on the Fortune list, calling him uncle by himself is not a loss, right?

And with Shen Peng's identity, it must not be a random relationship, so Gu Cheng's uncle screamed without psychological burden at all, and the last financing companies of Byte Leap this time are Jianyin and Sequoia, and they can have a good relationship with Shen Peng and Zhao Kegou, maybe they don't have to participate themselves, and these two elders can deliver the cake to their mouths.

"Gu Lao has been upright all his life, it's hard to think that there can be a grandson with such a slippery head as you."

Shen Peng first smiled and shook his head, then motioned for Gu Cheng to sit down, and continued: "If I guess correctly, I will inject 2.5 billion into the gray rhinoceros for this byte's Series D financing, right?" ”

This was originally Gu Cheng's plan, but now that Shen Peng asked, he didn't plan to hide it, so he nodded and said, "That's right." ”

"How much are you going to take?"

The people around didn't expect Shen Peng to be so straightforward, as if Byte Leap was now a fish on the board, and before it started, it carved up the share.

Gu Cheng was also slightly silent for half a minute when he heard this, and then slowly said a number.

"Three percent, the 2.5 billion injected capital is prepared for this share."

3% is not much, but this time Byte Leap has publicly stated that it will only take out 10% of the equity for financing, and this 3% is almost one-third of the share, and everyone was surprised again when they heard that Gu Cheng's mind was so big.

In terms of Byte's current market capitalization of 10 billion.

3% is 300 million US dollars, which is exactly about 2 billion, but Gu Cheng bluntly said that he had prepared 2.5 billion, and everyone was also transmitting information with various eyes.

In addition to the top capitals such as Sequoia Capital and Jianyin, there are also some small joint capitals that plan to enter, but they don't dare to be as crazy as Gu Cheng, let alone 3%, even three thousandths of them have to be carefully considered.

And why Gu Cheng can honestly tell him that he intends to get a 3% share is actually his own considerations.

My biggest advantage is that I have money.

And compared with large companies such as Sequoia and CCB, the money is at their own discretion, and there is no need to explain to the board of directors at all.

Byte Leap's 3% equity is only worth less than 2 billion, of course Gu Cheng will not be stupid enough to spend 500 million more, but this does not affect Gu Cheng's bragging, if he can bluff a few old foxes and a few fewer competitors, it will be better.

But it's clear.

The two old foxes, Shen Peng and Zhao Kegou, were not bluffed.

Zhao Kegou still had a smiling expression, and Shen Peng nodded slightly: "It is reasonable to take a 3% share of 2.5 billion." ”

Shen Peng only tried it for a while, and did not continue to chat.

After sweeping the reactions of everyone, he smiled again: "It seems that we have one more strong opponent for this investment."

"Uncle Shen killed me, it's just a little fight, and I can't compare with the bosses."

Gu Cheng also gradually adapted to the hypocritical environment in the field, and returned politely.

"2.5 billion capital or a small fight? Then my small company is probably a child in the eyes of Mr. Gu. ”

"Mr. Gu said this, but we can't even raise our heads, at your age, let alone 2.5 billion, even if it's 250,000, I don't dare to think about it.

It can only be said that the gap between people is too big. ”

A series of touting floated towards Gu Cheng like no money, and Gu Cheng was also maneuvering around them with ease.

At this moment, Shen Peng got up, picked up the goblet and said, "If there are more, we won't talk, there are still a lot of good projects at this reception, let's not just be busy chatting, maybe we can find a good project." ”

As President Wang said, in addition to the capital side, there are also many project parties who come to invest in this cocktail party, and if you are lucky, you may really be able to encounter a good project.

After speaking, under Shen Peng's signal, everyone also raised their glasses.

More than a dozen people raised their glasses and drank together, which immediately attracted the attention of others in the executive lounge.

...........

...........

In the other corner of the Executive Lounge, a group of people are looking longingly at the center...

If Gu Cheng notices this, he can find that this group of people are all figures with heads and faces in the entertainment industry, and they are even known as a group in the entertainment industry.

That's the Beijing Circle.

But it is such a group of big directors and big stars who are known as the big bosses of the entertainment industry and the Beijing circle, but they can only be reduced to foils in this capital cocktail party.

Although it was clear before they came, not many elders were willing to deal with them.

But even so, they found a lot of connections for an invitation.

None of them.

It's just to show the compulsion.

As practitioners in the entertainment industry at the bottom of the contempt chain, being able to participate in such a drinking party is tantamount to plating a layer of gold on their faces.

At this moment, Lu Han, who was at the top of the stream outside, and Lu Han, who was like a little transparent here, saw Gu Cheng in the center, and couldn't help but say, "Gu Shao? ”

"Xiao Lu knows the people inside? Tell me about it. ”

Huayi's popular actress, although she is in her 30s, Song Yunzi (PS: There is no such person), heard Lu Han's words, and hurriedly couldn't help but speak.

When Lu Han heard this, he also glanced at Song Yunzi, who was pretentiously coquettish, and hurriedly pressed the thoughts that men would have and said, "It can't be regarded as acquaintance."

You also know that I participated in Running Man, and one of the episodes was sponsored by Gu Shao, and I, as a resident guest of the program group, have a relationship with him. ”

Song Yunzi was wearing a suspender salute, his skin was so delicate that he could pinch out water, but the mountain peaks that were not majestic deliberately squeezed out a ravine that was neither deep nor shallow...

Song Yunzi, who debuted by sleeping, has a very poor reputation in the circle, but because of her good ability to arouse men's anger anytime and anywhere, even though there are countless scandals, she has a wide range of resources and is firmly in the position of a first-line actress.

Hearing Lu Han's words, she couldn't help but regret slightly, instead of sleeping with those directors and investors in exchange for some resources in the entertainment industry, what she wants to do now is to hug a certain thigh and become Mrs. Kuo completely, and those elders in the center of the executive lounge can fully meet her requirements.

Thinking of this, Song Yunzi was still unwilling to say: "Xiao Lu, my sister is usually good to you, do you want to introduce me?" Sister is indispensable for your benefits. ”

After speaking, he threw a wink at Lu Han, almost making him not hold it.

But fortunately, Lu Han was not lost by Song Yunzi's commotion, he just smiled and didn't give her any reply.

He didn't feel that he had any face in front of Gu Cheng.

If there really is, instead of hugging his thighs, he will help Song Yunzi introduce him? He's not stupid.

At this moment, Feng Gang, a well-known director of Huayi who had been silent, said in a Beijing accent: "Don't think about it, I talked to Mr. Wang once before about this Gu Shao."

The heir of the trillion-dollar consortium, the incident of Huang Yiqing's father and son in Huanghai, who caused a storm in Shanghai some time ago, was caused by him.

Huang Yiqing, you also know, especially Yunzi, who is usually bombarded by him on Weibo, worth hundreds of millions, and the old man who has a shallow relationship between black and white, only took less than a week to ruin the whole family, do you want to rub it on him?

Do you really think you're a dish? ”

Feng Gang originally thought that after he said this, Song Yunzi would put away his commotion, but he didn't expect Song Yunzi's gaze to become even hotter when he looked at Gu Cheng not far away.

"I don't care, I'll just go up and say hello to this Gu Shao, right? If he doesn't like me, then I'll apologize! ”

Just as Song Yunzi was pulsating her steps, another young man who had been silent was walking faster than Song Yunzi, and he rushed in front of her in three or two steps.

"Tian Yusheng, what are you doing?"

Feng Gang was also taken aback, and hurriedly got up and grabbed a young man named Tian Yusheng.

"I heard that this Gu Shao is the 50 million investor of "Wolf Warrior 2", which shows that Gu Shao is interested in film and television investment, since the company has no interest in investing in my film, I will go to invest myself, and try to see if my "Predecessor 3" can attract some investment from him."

Feng Gang: "??? ”

"You, a movie whose total cost doesn't add up to more than twenty or thirty million, want to invest in front of an old man of this level? Are you crazy? ”

But Tian Yusheng didn't say much, gritted his teeth, and walked directly in the direction of Gu Cheng.

"Huh! Tian Yusheng, wait for me! ”

Song Yunzi also hurriedly followed, she didn't expect that she was worried that she would not have a chance to talk to Gu Cheng, so Tian Yusheng created an opportunity for herself.
