Chapter 14 Investing in the Himalayas!

On November 23, Meng Qian, the head of legal affairs, began to deal with the second investment case after joining Slope Capital.

Slope Capital (Huaxia) Co., Ltd. signed an investment contract agreement with Puhai Himalaya Technology Co., Ltd.

Slope Capital invested 3.52 million US dollars alone, totaling 22.88 million yuan, accounting for 5.5% of the shares, and the valuation of Ximalaya at this time was 64 million US dollars.

The reason why the valuation is lower than the price negotiated by Yu Jianjun and Zheng Wentong Wudun Town is that 3% of the shares are from the transfer of shares of Sierra Ventures, a private venture capital firm, so the price is slightly favorable.

Although the amount of investment is not high, this share investment still makes Zheng Wentong brush his face again in Puhai's investment circle.

The three shareholders of Himalaya's Series A financing are SIG Haina Asia Ventures, KPCB and Sierra Ventures, all of which are overseas capital.

This is also a domestic shareholder introduced by Himalaya, and it is naturally more representative to take the lead this time.

Having invested in two potential Internet unicorn companies one after another, Mr. Zheng of Slope Capital must have his advantages.

After Hou Hongbo of China Transcription learned the news, he was a lot more enthusiastic about Zheng Wentong and invited him to visit the company and talk about the cooperation between the two companies.

Bai Xiaolu took the initiative to send a message to Zheng Wentong, "Wow, your company has made another big move, in other words, in your financial investment circle, is it at least tens of millions of dollars?" ”

The reason why I kept in touch with Mr. Zheng was because Bai Xiaolu had tens of thousands of deposits in the past two years, and he learned about investing from Mr. Zheng, a new friend in the investment circle.

And Zheng Wentong's attitude is indeed relatively mild, and he also patiently replies to the questions of financial whites. Even though he was very busy at work at the time, he would contact Bai Xiaolu when he saw a WeChat message afterwards.

Zheng Wentong was surprised, "You actually pay attention to financial news, shouldn't you girls pay attention to entertainment news?" ”

"I also watch entertainment news, Running Man, Where Are You Going, Dad, and The Voice." White Fawn replied.

"Come on! When you're famous, you'll be able to run men! Zheng Wentong encouraged her.

"Come less! How can there be such a good entry in the entertainment industry, I participated in the overseas trainee draft of South Korean S.M company the year before last, and finally failed. ”

"At that time, in order to be a trainee, I taught myself a lot of Korean, not to mention anything else, watching a Korean drama, I couldn't even use subtitles."

Bai Xiaolu felt very puzzled, saying that Zheng Wentong, as the CEO of the company, is he so idle, he can still play with his mobile phone at work, and he can reply to messages very quickly.

"That's right, I watch a lot of movies and I don't use subtitles." Zheng Wentong is serious.

"Phew, rascal." White Fawn understands in seconds.

"White fawn, it's your turn!" The photographer began to shout Bai Xiaolu, she hurriedly put her mobile phone aside, and began to work seriously, conscientiously posing for different poses to take pictures.

When taking pictures, she remembered what Zheng Wentong had just said that she could run on, and then couldn't help laughing.

She quickly apologized to the photographer, and the photographer shook her head and had to start shooting again, which was the model's distraction.

The results of Meng Qian's public examination have come out, and she has passed. After checking her results in the office, she was very excited, and Zheng Wentong stretched out her hands, ready to give her an encouraging hug.

She was stunned for a moment, then turned around and hugged Yao Yutong. Mr. Zheng had to leave in embarrassment, and then ordered afternoon tea for all the employees in the office, and Mr. Zheng had a private treat.

"I thought it was very difficult to take the CPA exam at that time, Xiaoqian, you are amazing!"

Since Meng Qian joined the company, Yao Yutong has a good impression of Meng Qian, practical work, serious and hard-working, sincere, and diligent and studious.

Although the company's prescribed working hours are 9 to 6, every time I want to chat with her after work, I am basically studying the case, in her words, I must be worthy of the salary offered by Mr. Zheng.

Meng Qian left the office and called her parents to report the good news, and when she came back, Zheng Zongding's afternoon tea had arrived.

Xu Ru praised Mr. Zheng for his taste, "Mr. Zheng, this mousse cake you ordered is the one I frequent, and their other snacks are also good." ”

Meng Qian asked Mr. Zheng how much money she was going to transfer to him.

"Don't don't, don't, you do this, let me be the boss, where is the face? As the boss, I want your abilities to be enhanced. ”

"If you want to continue studying, you can take the on-the-job graduate exam, if you want to take the exam, the company also strongly supports it, you are not absent from work when you take the exam, the company will approve you leave, if you go to the field for the exam, the company will reimburse you for the travel expenses."

"We at Slope Capital seem to be very small now, with only a few dozen employees, but I believe that we will be able to rent out 15 floors next year."

"Jiang Nan has a deep understanding, she is the first employee of our company, when it was first founded in August, there were only two of us in the office, and we were staring at work every day."

Later, Yao Yutong came in, then Chen Lei, Xu Ru, then Meng Qian, Unit Ping, and Zhang Yi. In fact, the salaries of those who joined later were higher than Jiang Nan's. ”

"Of course, although the company implements a salary confidentiality system, but there are only a few people, I believe you have already inquired clearly." Zheng Wentong's words made everyone's tense nerves relax and laughed.

"Why? Lao Dan, Zhang Yi, Meng Qian, they are all rare talents, graduated from prestigious schools, strong professional skills, I must use a better salary to retain talents. ”

"Slope Capital is not only to make investment, our company will become larger and larger, and after the platform is bigger, it is natural to introduce more excellent talents."

"If you don't study, don't progress, and expect to lie on the credit book of the past to retire, I'm sorry, the company doesn't need such people."

"But you can also rest assured, since I created Slope Capital, I have been determined to build a century-old company, and I have always been thinking about how to use my personal wealth to give back and help the society, and practice, 'Slope, make life better' company culture."

"Jijia Apartment is my first attempt, to provide a comfortable and livable living environment for non-local office workers in first-tier cities, and enterprises can also obtain profits, which is a win-win situation."

"The universal WIFI project is my second attempt, because now is the era of mobile Internet."

"The 4G network is a huge change compared to the 3G network, and all kinds of apps on your mobile phones will make you have a traffic anxiety at all times."

"Then the WIFI hotspots shared by other users spontaneously, get the surrounding free WIFI hotspot information, and establish a connection, this is the interconnected sharing economy of the first World Internet Conference."

"So, Zhang Yi, your work task will be very heavy next, I will ask you for money and money, and people for people, because this is a time war, if the market is occupied by the same type of software, we will have no chance to turn over."

"Don't worry, Mr. Zheng, I have already contacted the senior brothers and junior brothers of the school, and the teachers of China University of Technology can also provide us with technical support. As long as our company arranges students to come for internships. ”

"Around the Spring Festival, the 1.0 version of universal WIFI can be tested." Zhang Yi's personality is relatively calm, and he does not boast about Haikou.

"Okay, don't say that students come to intern, if the internship passes, they will stay and go to work directly, I think our company can do a co-construction project with the School of Computer Science of China University of Technology, we will pay for it, they will make concerted efforts to do the project first." Zheng Wentong was very happy.

"For Internet companies, as long as the number of users is expanding, losing money is not a bad thing, and the same is true for our company."

"Don't look at us burning money every month, it's because we invest in new projects, and the loss also means that our company is expanding. Everyone, do a good job, and strive to buy another Mercedes next year. ”

"Cut—" The crowd dispersed, and the last joke was not funny at all.

Unit Ping looked at Zheng Wentong and admired it in his heart, not to mention anything else, sure enough, the CEOs who can open such an investment company in Lujiazui are all powerful characters, it is a pity that Mr. Zheng's eloquence does not do sales, of course, it is a pity to do sales.

At the end of November, my mother Zhou Yuling called Zheng Wentong, "Mr. Zheng-"

Zhou Yuling opened her mouth, Zheng Wentong broke out in a cold sweat, "Don't don't, Mom, you save some face for your son, if you call me like this, I don't dare to go back for the New Year." ”

"Really?" Zhou Yuling didn't continue to joke with her son, "Didn't I listen to Jianwen remind Jianbin and ask him to call you Mr. Zheng in the company, don't call your cousin." ”

Zhou Zhifa and Yang Jianwen recruited a few more people from their hometowns, and now the number of Zheng Anguo and Yang Jianwen's subordinates is about the same.

Zheng Wenlong muttered in Zheng Anguo's team, "Cousin and cousin every day, who is not related to each other, is not surnamed Zheng!" ”

Hearing Zheng Wenlong say this, Yang Jianwen and Yang Jianwu brothers were not very comfortable.

Zheng Anguo is very good at being a man, and reprimanded Zheng Wenlong, "Everyone comes out to do things together, and they all eat under Uncle Wentong, don't poke your own people and let outsiders see jokes." If you want to do this job, you can continue to do it, and if you don't want to do it, go back to the village! ”

After this battle, Yang Jianwen and Yang Jianwu paid attention, and also reminded Yang Jianbin to pay attention when driving for Zheng Wentong, if anyone else in the company is present, he must call Mr. Zheng, not his cousin.

In the face of this situation, Zheng Wentong has no good way, the subsidiary of Jijia Apartment will definitely be handed over to Yang Jianwen and Zhou Zhifa to operate in the future.

Zheng Anguo sensed Zheng Wentong's intentions and was not very convinced by Yang Jianwen, so he asked his subordinates to stir up trouble.

After all, a cronyistic company can't do it for a long time, if the ability is not enough, insist on pushing him to the top, and the result of unworthy morality is that people's hearts are scattered, and the team is not easy to bring.

"Mom, you called me suddenly, did you have something to do with me?" Zheng Wentong changed the subject.

"I heard that the girl introduced by my aunt is already working in your company? She also passed the civil service exam, how did I hear that her mother was going to let her go back to work in Zhongchu Province? Zhou Yuling shared a message.

"Yes, but it's up to her whether she wants to go back or not." Zheng Wentong is very calm, and Meng Qian comes and goes freely.

"I didn't get the exam results before, so it's good to work in your company and get some salary. Now that I'm a civil servant, I can't work there, so why do I have to stay in Puhai? ”

"Wen Tong, don't you mean that to other people's little girls?"

Zheng Wentong's mind suddenly appeared Bai Xiaolu's innocent face when he was wearing a windbreaker and a high ponytail, and he was stunned for a while, and he didn't hear his mother's question clearly.
