Bao Bufan called an investor. And things are naturally related to money, but this is the last dispensable link.

All that is done is to give investors a certain rebate from the commission part paid by Mengguyun.

Of course, this rebate has to go to the public and private. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than power and money.

What is the right? But it is not necessarily intergovernmental to call this term.

In this case, Menggu Cloud raised a total of US$150 million. According to the initially agreed commission ratio of 4%, Huaxing earned up to 6 million US dollars in commissions in this transaction.

The so-called game, for Bao Bufan, what he did was just to build a bridge, and it was reasonable to charge some tolls. In order to facilitate the transaction, another two-party private transaction is reached with one of the parties, which is just to allow the people on both sides of the bridge to meet smoothly.

The left side of the bridge is an entrepreneur, and the right side of the bridge is an investor. One end has products, technologies, and markets, and the other end has capital and connections.

Occasionally, there are stunned entrepreneurs, "Why do so-and-so projects invest so much?"

There are also confused investors, "Why is this project so expensive?"

In this case, the extraordinary role of the package comes out. As long as there is a certain initial willingness, most of these things can be communicated.

In essence, what the left and right sides of the bridge do is just the exchange of resources.

There are also slightly more complicated situations. For example, after Lu Zhou rejected Penguin's offer, Penguin Liu Zhiping even called him to raise his chips in person.

In the middle, the resources provided by Penguin are traffic channels.

If these words are thrown out, the blind can probably see that Penguin is obviously determined to participate in the financing of Menggu Cloud. They even took out important traffic channels to "bet". The purpose is no more than the WeChat message at the back.

Of course, capital is ruthless. From his experience, most of the torn holes are difficult to close. The price of this bet for the penguins is not as big as imagined.

As for Bao Bufan, this "bridge" is not a bargaining chip in itself.

For example, Luzhou is 1% less, and investors will return 1%. If both sides can succeed, this business is a case of only 3% from start to finish.

And if the entanglement changes from 5% to 3%, then his Huaxing business really can't do it.

After all, the current year is not very good, just after the financial crisis in 2008, Huaxing really didn't get any points in 2009.

In 2010, he handled Shenzhou Car Rental and Aiqiyi, and at the end, he also "temporarily picked up leaks" and engaged in a Dream Valley Cloud, which also made him look forward to 2011.

Although there are occasional "collaborations", Bao Bufan has always focused on helping emerging companies to leverage the power of capital from the very beginning.

Openness, collaboration and resource sharing, this is the inspiration brought to him by Luzhou Chuangmeng. Maybe the future purpose of these "resources" will gradually change from "value discovery" to "value creation".

Capital no longer simply uses the pictographic meaning of "money" to show people, but is more involved in the transformation and integration of the entire industry.

"I don't know who this horse must be inspired by." Bao Bufan shook his head as he thought.

After that, he didn't think about it any more, this young man gave him such an opportunity.

Bao Bufan rested his legs on the desk, flipping through Mengguyun's information in his hands. Although the B round of Mengguyun has been initially completed, according to Luzhou's next arrangement, Huaxing still needs to participate in the case of Mengguyun's acquisition of Phaeton.

He continued to read the report. According to the agreement of Menggu Cloud’s B round of financing, Menggu Cloud converted the original A-round design of the capital structure from 1 to 10, and issued a total of 1 billion shares.

Among them, Lu Zhou held 450 million shares, Song Wenhui 135 million, and Fang Qiang, Wen Xuwei, and Phaeton each held about 90 million. The lead investor in the A round, dcm, has only 53.3 million shares.

In the next B round of new capital, the price of a single share was 0.85 US dollars after the four parties agreed.

For example, the leading investor, Index Capital, will inject about US$100 million into Menggu Cloud, and Menggu Cloud will issue 117.64 million new shares to Index Capital. The remaining two are also allocated new shares at the same price.

The dust of the b round has been settled, and Bao Bufan will no longer study it in detail. What he needs to pay attention to is what impact the participation of Phaeton in the a round will have on the subsequent mergers and acquisitions.

Looking at Bao Bufan superficially, Lu Zhou's operation of introducing Song Wenhui in front of the A round was simply a loss to his grandmother's house.

In this operation, Lu Zhou obtained 20% of the shares of Phaeton, while Song Wenhui received 15% of the shares of Mengguyun. According to the A round of financing carried out by Mengguyun in September 2010, the valuation of Mengguyun shares held by Song Wenhui has reached 20.25 million US dollars.

If this is the case, Bao Bufan almost thinks that, considering Luzhou at the time, the 20% stake in Phaeton must be equal to this value, and the valuation of Phaeton must be around US$100 million.

But this is the case of the A round. You must know that just yesterday, the price of a new single share of Menggu Cloud was 0.85 US dollars per share, and Song Wenhui's shares held at this time were valued as high as 110 million!

Can Phaeton's valuation change? In Bao Bufan's view, this may not be the case. Therefore, at a superficial glance, Luzhou's operation of cross-shareholding only three months ago has caused a "huge loss" of nearly 100 million US dollars. And the winner is naturally Song Wenhui.

Can Lu Zhou be a fool? At least in the past month of contact, Bao Bufan felt that Lu Zhou was worthy of the term "upstart hero".

Naturally, there must be some incidental factors in this transaction, and this point is worth far more than 100 million US dollars in Lu Zhou's view.

Afterwards, Bao Bufan opened up about some of the situation since Menggu Yun’s A round of financing.

Seeing this, he said in his heart, sure enough.

Since the A round, Mengguyun has successively received a batch of server equipment from Phaeton, and this income is accounted for as part of the Phaeton A round of capital injection.

Bao Bufan took his feet off the desk and checked again~www.readwn.com~ After confirming, he said to himself, "So, this batch of equipment is ready-made and this is a dream. Gu Yun’s A round of capital injection, and the condition given by Luzhou is cross-shareholding.”

"Fast round b in three months. Hmm...seems like an impatient employer."

A smile appeared on Bao Bufan's face, and his hands touched his bright bald head.

He figured it out. The resources that Lu Zhou exchanged are the thrust to promote the rapid progress of Menggu Yun's B round. If he can't win the Phaeton machines, he will still increase his chips to save time and cost. The purpose can only be to speed up the pace of merging Phaeton, get through the upstream and downstream, and rapidly expand the market.

"So, the next question is how to collect it and how to reorganize it."

But just thinking about it, Bao Bufan slapped his forehead, and immediately thought of Lu Zhou's cross-shareholding that was lost to his grandmother's house. Lu Zhou is now the director of Phaeton!

And what's the point? Song Wenhui, the major shareholder of Phaeton, saw the speed of Menggu Yun. It was at this time that Song Wenhui really "surrendered", and Bao Bufan really couldn't think of a place where resistance could arise.

In a flash of inspiration, Bao Bufan found out the resume of Mengguyun's management, and then compared with this, he had to sigh, "I'm afraid this can't be planned. It seems that It's not worth the money alone."

After shaking his head, he was about to call Lu Zhou. Who doesn't want to get on a fast train? How about a little bit of profit?

What Bao Bufan did not expect was that this decision would have a profound impact on Huaxing in the future.
