Rebirth of the tea art man

Chapter 219 Be the first to wechat! 3000 million angel round

"How is it? Is there any good project to invest in?"

Lin Cheng walked into the office of Chengmeng Fund. Unlike the other subsidiaries, this is the most deserted department.

The business of the venture capital company itself is not too complicated. To put it bluntly, it is just gambling, it is stud.

Choose a project, a company, and invest directly in it, and forget it if you die.

Just like that Li Yishan from the island country, when he first talked with people for a few minutes, he invested 1000 million dollars directly. Later, he won the bet, went public, and became a global super giant. After this wave, he earned tens of thousands billions of shocking returns.

Lin Cheng didn't know much about venture capital.

However, he knows the direction of development in the next ten years and where the real blue ocean is.

"Hey, they are all trying to cheat money. They are either fools or liars. There is also a particularly stupid fool these days who has been pestering me all day long. He wants us to invest in a software that can send text messages. Tens of millions go in."

Yang Yan opened the folder on the computer and listed the investment projects clearly, all of which she sorted out from the mailbox.

"Software that can send text messages? Which project did you just mention? Open it and let me see!"

In an instant, Lin Cheng's heart was raised.

"It seems to be called WeChat... I found it, and this is it."

"Isn't it exactly the same thing as QQ? Two people add a friend, and then they can send messages on the computer and mobile phone. What's so special about it? I still want an investment of 1000 million, crazy!"

Soon, Yang Yan dug out the document.

Inside is a well-crafted PPT, which introduces in detail how his WeChat project works and where its advantages lie.

However, from the eyes of ordinary people, this thing really has no special features.

Add friends to each other, you can send messages online at any time, replacing the function of text messages.

Isn't this the same as QQ?QQ can do all these functions.

As for the so-called circle of friends, sharing life with friends and other characteristics, isn't this just Qzone?
What's the difference?
It can be said that in Yang Yan's eyes, this so-called "WeChat" is a [-]:[-] replica of QQ, nothing special.

If this kind of project can be done successfully, there are too many similar things, just find one, change the color and change the skin, and copy it.

"he……"

Lin Cheng suppressed his excitement, his heart was about to jump out of his chest, "Has he registered? Has he successfully registered the WeChat trademark?"

Since his rebirth, he has had to deal with so many things every day that he almost forgot the super gold mine of WeChat.

Now is the end of 2010, which is the time for the early development of WeChat. If this person successfully registers the WeChat trademark, the meaning will be completely different.

Lin Cheng could absolutely grab this WeChat trademark, spend all his money, and smash it in.

Even if you can't compete in the end, that's okay, as long as you can grab a part of the traffic and a part of the market, the final result will definitely be a merger!
By the time……

A lot of money!

It's like the bike-sharing battle between the little yellow car and the little red car, or the battle between takeaways and taxis.

It doesn't matter if the competition fails, even if you are acquired by the other party, you can still make a lot of money. When the time comes, billions of dollars will be credited to your account, and you will directly realize the freedom of wealth.

"It seems to be successful, I'm not too sure. I don't think this project is interesting, so I didn't pay attention to it in the follow-up, and I didn't ask more questions."

Yang Yan panicked a little.

She could see that her young boss seemed to attach great importance to this project and became emotionally excited.

"Don't blame the past for what happened in the past. But in the future, all investment projects related to the Internet will be sent to me for personal review."

"In addition, you should contact him right away. No matter where he is, let him fly to Linzhou to meet me immediately. If it's really impossible, let him report the coordinates, and I can fly over to find him myself."

"In short, the sooner the better, even if it's a plane at two o'clock in the morning, it doesn't matter!"

Lin Cheng knew that now was not the time to pursue responsibility, and Yang Yan could not be blamed for this kind of thing.

The top priority now is to contact that person as soon as possible and invest in his WeChat project as soon as possible.

"Okay, okay, okay, I'll get in touch right away and make arrangements right away!" Yang Yan really panicked.

From Lin Cheng's tone and attitude, she finally realized how serious this matter was.

Since she became a full-time undercover agent and officially turned from the dark to the bright, it was the first time she saw this almost omnipotent genius boss, so nervous and excited.

He estimated that even if he took off his clothes and stood in front of him, he would not be so excited.

"Remember, the sooner the better, money is not an issue!"

Lin Cheng took a deep breath, suppressing the ups and downs in his heart.

Xingcheng Media received more than 3000 million yuan last month, all of which had to be used to repay the 4 million owed by the three major banks.

The manuscript fee for Qixing Chinese website is estimated to be only a few million left, and the daily living expenses are left to spend by myself.

However, after his Chengmeng Fund bought two companies last time, there is still a huge sum of 1 million yuan lying on its books.

Sorry, stud time is up!

……

Tianhai, Zhangjiazui, Jinmao Grand Hyatt Hotel.

Standing tall in the domestic financial center, it was the tallest building here and the highest five-star luxury hotel before the World Financial Center was put into operation.

However, as soon as the World Financial Center was completed and put into use, with the opening of the Park Hyatt Hotel, the Jinmao Grand Hyatt Hotel was greatly reduced in comparison.

Of course, as Tianhai's most prestigious landmark, this Grand Hyatt Hotel is still the benchmark for all Grand Hyatt hotels across the country.

It costs more than 1000 per night, and even more than 2000 in peak season, which is beyond the imagination of most ordinary people.

Even those tourists who come to Tianhai for a special trip will at most take the sightseeing elevator to the sightseeing hall on the top floor, instead of staying in the Grand Hyatt Hotel located on the 54th to 87th floors.

The Regency Club is the executive lounge located in the Grand Hyatt Hotel. Only those who have booked a room type above the executive room, or are the highest-level Global Traveler of the Hyatt Group, can enter and exit for free.

In this era, there are not many Chinese people in the lounge, but the foreign executives of multinational companies can be seen everywhere, chattering in different languages.

Even Lin Cheng couldn't understand many of them, and he could only understand a few words "daba, baga, one library, one library", probably a producer of a famous international film company, discussing the next movie Filming details.

"This place is so high, Mr. Lin, how high is this place? Is there 300 meters?"

Sitting opposite Lin Cheng was a man wearing glasses, a black down jacket, and a classic plaid shirt at the neckline. He was dressed as a programmer. When he lowered his head, the sparse top of his head was inadvertently revealed, showing his strength.

"It's about 300 meters away." Lin Cheng nodded.

His name is Cheng Men, and he is from a small city in the northwest. The nearest airport takes three hours by car, and there is no direct flight to Linzhou, so he can only fly to Tianhai first, and then take a car to Linzhou to meet Lin Cheng.

However, Lin Cheng didn't have so much time to spend, so he directly made an appointment in Tianhai, even arrived a day earlier, and stayed at the Grand Hyatt Hotel for one night.

"If my project can be implemented and the company grows bigger and bigger, can I start a company and work here in the future?" Cheng Men looked at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling windows and was very excited.

It will be the top of the list, and the mountains are small.

The 88-storey skyscraper is already taller than many mountains.Especially at the height of the naked eye, no matter looking from bottom to top or from top to bottom, if you look at it for a few seconds, you will feel dizzy.

"Not here, this is a hotel. If you want to rent an office, you have to go downstairs. Below the 54th floor is the office area, and above the 54th floor is the Grand Hyatt Hotel." Lin Cheng explained with a smile.

Although he is several years younger than him, but from the looks of the two, Cheng Men is more like a child, full of curiosity about the outside world and a desire to explore.

"It's fine, it's fine, as long as you can work here, it's exciting to think about it!"

Cheng Men took a deep breath, still not recovering from the prosperity of Tianhai, a super metropolis.

"If this project is done well and can be completed, you can go to the World Financial Center next door. There is a 101st floor!" Lin Cheng said with a smile.

It is a good thing that young people have ideals and struggles!

Although, he looks more like a young man.

"That... this WeChat project is similar to my own son. Although I'm not married yet, I don't have a wife yet, but I can understand it. I really regard it as my own son."

"If it weren't for the fact that my capital chain is about to break, the money I invested in is burned out, and the money for bank loans is almost gone, I really wouldn't come to you."

"Did you know? I graduated in 985, and I was a double-graduate student. For this project, I even gave up the opportunity to take the Ph.D. sold."

Cheng Men slapped the table with both hands, propped it up and stood up suddenly, staring at Lin Cheng with twinkling eyes, "Boss Lin, can you give me a chance? I only want 1000 million!"

"Five, five million is fine!"

He hesitated, and cut off half of the price himself.

"I have already read your project, and I have read it three times carefully. I think it has great potential. But, you also know that venture capital like us needs to take the huge risk of losing everything. Throwing money into it is not as good as throwing water in the water, it’s like sinking into the sea.”

Lin Cheng stretched out his hand to call for the waiter, and ordered a glass of fresh apple juice, which tasted slightly sweet and sour, and was very refreshing.

"What would you like to drink?" he asked in passing.

"Water is fine, I don't drink!" Cheng Men said.

"It's a good habit not to drink alcohol, you can keep it!" Lin Cheng smiled and ordered a glass of lemonade for him.

Soon, the drinks came.

After taking a few sips, moistening his throat, Lin Cheng said, "Well, I'll give you two choices."

"First, I'll invest 1000 million, and I want 50% of your shares!"

"Second, I'll invest 3000 million and want 80% of your shares!"

hum!
In an instant, Cheng Men was stunned.

He has always boasted that he is smart, but at this moment, his brain seems to be down, unable to function for a long time.

Angel round venture capital is generally hundreds of thousands to millions, and rarely tens of millions of funds.

After all, the earlier the investment, the greater the risk. Instead of spending 1000 million on one project, it is better to spend 10 million on 100 projects.The first key to investing is to know how to avoid risks.

However, as an investor in the angel round, Lin Cheng had 1000 million heavily invested funds from the very beginning, and he only needed 50% of the shares.This means that Lin Cheng's valuation of his company is as high as 2000 million, which is far beyond Cheng Men's own imagination.

And Lin Cheng's second choice was even more outrageous.

Since his valuation of his company is 2000 million, then 80% of the shares should be worth 1600 million. Even if you buy it at a premium, 2000 million is very good.

But Lin Cheng's price was 3000 million!
A full 3000 million!
If he didn't know the true identity of this young man beforehand, Cheng Men would even think that he has gone crazy and is insane!
"Boss Lin, are you serious?"

Cheng Men took a sip of water to calm down, and then asked cautiously.

"What do you say?"

"A first-class air ticket, a five-star hotel, I even waited for you here all night." Lin Cheng always had a smile on his face, but his tone of voice seemed to be that the elders were educating the younger generation .

"I know this, I know this, thank you very much Mr. Lin for your appreciation, and being able to meet me in your busy schedule!" Cheng Men nodded and quickly flattered him.

It is said on the Internet that this 18-year-old boy is already worth more than 5 million yuan.

Being able to accumulate such a huge amount of wealth at such a young age in such a short period of time shows that his genius is definitely different from ordinary people.

This is also the reason why Cheng Menhui came to Lin Cheng.

He believed that only a genius like Lin Cheng could understand his thoughts.

"Whether it's 1000 million or 3000 million, as soon as the contract is signed and the procedures are completed, I can send you the money immediately."

Lin Cheng looked at him and emphasized - "Cash!"

hiss--

Cheng Men gasped, his mood was like a tsunami, and the tsunami overturned.

Ten million!

This is tens of millions of funds, and it's all cash.

Before that, all the net worth he invested was only 400 million, which is not worth mentioning at all compared to the figure that Lin Cheng said.

If I can get such a large amount of capital injection, then all the problems in front of me will not be a problem.

The only problem in modern society is that there is no money. As long as you have money, all difficulties can be easily solved!

"Boss Lin!"

Cheng Men took another sip of water and drank the whole glass of lemonade in one go.He even ate the lemon slices in his stomach, and the foreigners at the next table were amazed.

Snapped!
The cups are placed on the table, like a hero drinking alcohol.

"I want 3000!"

Cheng Men decided.

Compared with the uncertain risks in the future, he wants to get enough funds now.After all, angel investors can also run away. If you miss this time, you won’t know who to turn to next.

"can!"

Lin Cheng nodded and smiled.
