Chapter 707: Unforgettable Year 2

The sky was clear on the night of August 8.

The first group of fireworks rose into the sky by the Yongding River and at the same time exploded in the sky, and a huge footprint appeared in the sky.

Then one after another fireworks made up of footprints appeared in the sky, like a giant heading towards the Bird's Nest Stadium in the distance.

The last footprint bloomed over the Bird's Nest Stadium, and more than 90,000 people cheered together.

Song Yu and Ou Xiaoyang sat at the scene with their wives and children, looking up at the fireworks that were gradually disappearing in the sky.

Both of them were very excited and a little regretful that Wang Weidong was not present at such an exciting scene.

The exciting and magnificent scenes were one after another, until the cute little girl stood in the middle of the gymnasium and sang "Singing the Motherland".

The innocent and childish voice flows like a clear spring in everyone's heart.

Song Yu couldn't help but turn his head to Ou Xiaoyang and said, "Xiaoyang, you say, are we people who have contributed to the country like our parents?" ”

"Of course! How much have the two of us and Weidong contributed to the country over the years? I just took out more than 60 million! Ou Xiaoyang replied without hesitation.

2008 was unforgettable, with earthquakes, Olympics and wars.

And it broke out on the same day as the Olympics.

Five days later, Wang Weidong received a call from Goncharova.

"Wilton, do you have time now?" Goncharova asked.

"What's the matter? Are you going to war? Wang Weidong asked rhetorically.

"It's not, the war will end soon, I want to introduce you to a person, a genius, a mathematical genius of our great northern country, a famous entrepreneur." Goncharova said.

"But now I really don't want to go to Magadan." Wang Weidong said.

"You don't need to come to Magadan, Mr. Segalovich will come to China to meet you. His company is desperately short of working capital, so I'll introduce you to him. Goncharova said.

"I don't want to invest in companies I don't know!" Wang Weidong said.

"You can meet him first, and then it's up to you to decide whether to invest or not." Goncharova said.

Two days later, a plane from Moscow landed at the Beijing airport.

A middle-aged man from a large northern country walked over quickly when he saw someone in the aisle holding a sign written in Russian with Segalovich.

"I'm Verton, Mr. Segalovich, and I'll take you to the hotel now." Wang Weidong said.

Wang Weidong took Segalovich to a four-star hotel outside the Fifth Ring Road.

"I'm sorry Mr. Segalovich, it's hard to stay in a hotel in the city center right now." Wang Weidong explained.

"It doesn't matter, Miss Goncharova told me that you are a wise man, and people like us don't care about that." Segalovich said.

Looking at Segalovich's long face, Wang Weidong asked, "Miss Goncharova said that you are a mathematical genius!" ”

"In the 70s, I won a silver medal in mathematics for my country!" Segalovich said proudly.

"Really? As far as I know, there are a lot of gold medals in our country over the years! Wang Weidong said politely.

In front of foreigners, you must not lose face.

"I also know this, and I heard that your country has made great progress over the years." Segalovich said.

This is what all Chinese want to hear.

Wang Weidong was very satisfied, and he said to Segarowic: "Now you can introduce your company first, so that I can have a certain understanding." ”

"Yandex was founded by me and my good friend Vorozhy, and now it is the largest search engine in the northern country, of course, in addition to the search engine, we have also entered other businesses in recent years, this time I came to finance you for this matter, we need to carry out some mergers and acquisitions, but now there is no money." Segalovich said.

"Why don't you look for money elsewhere? There are so many tycoons in the big northern countries, and now Western financial institutions are very interested in the Internet, they are now everywhere in China, if Yandex is really as promising as you say, they will not let you go! Wang Weidong said.

"Our angel round investment a few years ago was invested by the people of the United States, and it was originally agreed that they would invest 10 million US dollars this time, but you knew that after the outbreak of the war, Western countries were going to sanction us, and the financial company immediately informed us that the investment was postponed indefinitely." Segalovich said regretfully.

"We are going to buy an electronic advertising company, which will cost 85 million rubles, and we will also buy a road traffic monitoring company in a large northern country, which I estimate to be more than 100 million rubles, and these two acquisitions will cost at least 7 million dollars together. I hope Mr. Verton will invest ten million dollars! Segalovic continued.

"So what's my benefit?" Wang Weidong asked.

"You will get five percent of Yandex's equity, a few years ago, when Yandex was very young, Brother Mi Guogu wanted to buy us, and offered us $100 million, but we refused, and now you are exchanging 10 million dollars for five percent of the equity, which is a lot." Segalovich replied.

"I have to think about this matter, and I have to send someone to Moscow to investigate, and I can't give you an answer soon." Wang Weidong said.

In the evening, Wang Weidong called Goncharova: "Miss Goncharova, you are a rich man in a big northern country with all that gold!" Why don't you invest directly in Yandex and let me invest? ”

"Verton, that gold is not my personal property, it belongs to the great powers of the north, to the people of Magadan!" Goncharova replied.

"Miss Goncharova, if you take all that gold for yourself, you will be much cuter in the eyes of some people!" Wang Weidong said.

This kind of investigation naturally has to let Li Yueshi go, of course, some things can be done through the Internet, Yandex is the largest search engine company in the northern country, and it is the top fifty search engine company in the world, which is no problem.

A month later, on behalf of Wang Weidong, Li Yueshi signed an agreement in Moscow with Segalovich and Voroz of Yandex to buy a 5 percent stake in Yandex for $10 million.

"Since it's a good company, you should find a way to get this company listed as soon as possible!" Wang Weidong said to Li Yueshi on the phone.

After arriving in the capital, the happiest people were Wang Haifu, Wang Tou and Lao Chen, the two of them took the tickets bought by Wang Weidong to watch the games in various gymnasiums, and contacted Shi Wei through the phone number given by Wang Weidong.

One was the factory of the Xiangyang Chemical Factory, and the other two were old workers in the factory that year, and the three of them were very emotional when they got together.

"I invite the two of you to eat roast duck, I have traveled abroad several times in recent years, but the capital has not been turned once, from tomorrow the three of us will turn the Badaling Great Wall Ming Tombs and all the attractions in the city!" Shi Ke said.

Back at home, the two old men were very emotional.

"The stone factory director is still so approachable!" Wang Haifu said.

Wang Weidong wanted to say that he should find more than 3,000 old comrades from the Quanxiangyang Chemical Factory in the capital and let Shi Ke invite him to eat roast duck?

But it's better not to say this kind of yin and yang weirdness.

"It's so hot now, be careful not to get heat stroke! Shi Kewei has a blue medical certificate, you don't! Wang Weidong instructed.
