Back To 2005

"Don't ask, ask yourself."

Knowing what her friend meant, Lou Shuqing would not take the initiative to ask her senior if he would take them back to Lizhou. She was too ignorant.

No, it must be too unreserved.

How can a girl be so proactive?

"I'm not embarrassed. Anyway, you're not interested in the senior, so don't be embarrassed. Little Shushu, please."

Faced with her best friend's determination, Shuna resorted to coquettish tactics.

She knew that after using this move, the other party would have no resistance.

"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, I'll ask for you."

Unable to stand her friend's behavior, Lou Shuqing rolled her eyes at her friend angrily and agreed.

However, hearing her friend so courageously admit his affection for the old senior, Lou Shuqing still admired him a little.

At least, she couldn't tell.

"What else do you want to eat?"

Back in the box, Zhou Anan looked at the food that was almost completely wiped out and asked with a smile.

"No, senior, we are already full."

After hearing the old senior's question, Shuna answered with a smile, then glanced at her best friend next to her, raising her willow-shaped eyebrows.

"Senior, when will you return to Lizhou?"

Noticing the look in her friend's eyes, Lou Shuqing pondered for a moment and asked a question.

"I still have some things to do in Hangzhou these two days. Why, you didn't buy a ticket?"

Hearing Lou's personal trainer's question, Zhou Anan thought he hadn't bought a ticket.

Of course, he would not take the initiative to ask the other party if he wanted a ride. He was very busy in Hangzhou these days and had no time to go back to his hometown in Lizhou.

Even if I want to go back, I have to go back to Lucheng first and spend two days with my girlfriend before going back.

Zhou Anan is still very clear about this.

The relationship with Lou's personal trainer had ended within a few years of her previous life.

Men, cherish the present.

"No, it's just that we have too many things and it's a bit troublesome to take the car."

Lou Shuqing couldn't explain the unreliable reason of not being able to buy a ticket. After all, it was already past the peak holiday period. There were many buses from Hangzhou to Lizhou, so how could she not be able to buy a ticket.

As for the fact that there were too many things, Lou Shuqing asked Shuna to find a solution on her own. At worst, she would pack all the clothes and go home, and then pack them back.

"That's it. I may not be free until after the 8th. Can you guys wait?"

I didn't expect this to be the case. Zhou Anan couldn't find anyone to help take the two beautiful girls back, and it wasn't safe for unfamiliar people, so he made an appointment.

If not, then they will have to mail the items home themselves.

Girlfriend first, career second, nothing wrong with that.

"It's okay, we happen to be in Hangzhou for a few days. Senior, let's wait for your call."

Before Lou Shuqing could speak, Shuna held her arm and took the lead in agreeing.

Anyway, if you go home so early, your parents will dislike you in two days. It's okay to go home a few days later.

It just so happens that they have been studying in Hangzhou for so long and have never had much fun.

This arrangement is so perfect.

"Okay, I'll call you then."

Nodding, Zhou Anan saw that the two of them were full, so he called the waiter to pay the bill.

After dinner, it was impossible to go shopping with him. Before Zhou Anan sent his two elementary school girls back to school, he bought them two cups of coffee at Qinglan.

"Nana, I promised my mother to go back tomorrow, what do you want me to say?"

While drinking Qinglan coffee, Lou Shuqing looked at her happy friend unhappily.

"What's the matter? I'll tell Auntie."

Regarding this issue, Shuna took care of everything.

She is also relatively familiar with the Lou family's mother, and it is a trivial matter.

"Then I'll go to the library to borrow some books in the next two days."

Seeing that her friend was so well prepared, Lou Shuqing didn't want to disturb her sweet dream, so she thought of borrowing a few books to pass the time in the next few days.

"What books can I borrow? Let's go to a tourist attraction."

"I have no money."

"Don't you still have more than two thousand yuan in your bank card? Allah, I promise you, I will work with you during the summer vacation. Have fun for a few days first, and then work hard to make money."

"Then it's agreed, don't keep your words."

"It definitely counts."

"Don't lie to me?"

"Do not lie to you."

"Hook."

"Okay, pull the hook, don't change for a hundred years, whoever changes will be a puppy."

"No, whoever changes will never have a boyfriend for the rest of his life."

"So poisonous."

"Ok?"

"OK."

"Come on, don't change the hook. Whoever changes will never have a boyfriend."

"."

That night, Zhou Anan sat by the window sill in Room 3111 of Nanzhou Garden, thinking for half the night, and made several phone calls before falling asleep peacefully.

Early in the morning, Zhou Anan walked around the West Lake, had breakfast, and then headed to the celebrity network.

The three carriages have all arrived, and among the company's shareholders, the two eldest ladies have entrusted Zhou An'an with full authority to handle this financing matter.

As for TX, after receiving Zhou An'an's promise to be selected for the A-round financing, no representatives were sent to participate. Anyway, the chairman of Celebrity Network, Zhou An'an, and the management team have the final say.

"BOSS, these are the companies currently selected."

Sitting in the small conference room, Qi Liang handed over a document.

"Um."

After taking the file, Zhou Anan looked at it and thought for a few seconds after putting it down.

"I will first choose Qiandu, Shenjian, Hard Silver, and TX, and raise 1.6 billion yuan with a valuation of 8 billion."

Pointing her finger at the table, Zhou Anan selected four A-round investment institutions.

Zhou Anan's words were very calm, and his heart was also very calm.

For him, this is just a number, and it can only be a number. Zhou Anan didn't take a penny in his pocket. No matter how big the number is, what's the use? He's so heartbroken that he can't breathe...

Today is the fourth day since the launch of Weike. The number of registered users on Weike's website has exceeded 38 million. There is no doubt that Weike has established a dominant position in the industry. Barring no accidents, it will remain so until the market matures.

In the same four-day period, a total of hundreds of venture capital investors came to negotiate and wanted to send money to Weike. Each one had better conditions than the other, and Weike had to pick and choose to find someone to collect the money.

Qiandu and TX can both attract traffic to micro-customers in the future. Originally, their roles were somewhat repetitive, but Zhou Anan had already agreed to TT’s Mr. Mai.

Besides, without the help of TX, Celebrity Network would not be where it is today.

Excalibur Capital has a capital background in Country M and Europe and can contribute to Weike's entry into the Americas and Europe. Hard Silver Capital's power spreads throughout Asia and many developing countries, which will be of great help to Weike in the future.

Now is the time when the Internet bubble is at its most serious. With the popularity of Kaixin Farm and the unstoppable development trend of WeChat, the valuation of Celebrity Network has been greatly exceeded. If it were replaced by the Internet bubble burst next year, this valuation would be 4% One would be nice.

You know, TX's shares will plummet next year, its market value will be cut by more than half, and the Internet will almost enter a winter.

In short, in one sentence, for emerging Internet companies, today's major venture capital companies are all stupid and rich money-givers.

"OK."

Upon hearing the big boss's decision, Qi Liang did not refute and nodded in agreement.

Although the shares of several of their top executives were diluted, their net worth more than tripled.

The most important thing is that during the last equity swap between Big Boss and TX, the company’s valuation was fictitious, but this round of financing has really made their worth reach the level of billionaires. I have taken this step several times.

"I want to ask your opinion on something. I'm going to set up another company."

Looking at the three high-spirited carriages, Zhou Anan waited for them to be happy for a minute and then expressed his thoughts.

According to this ratio, 20% of the existing equity must be given away, which means that his existing equity will be diluted by about 20%.

Originally, after selling some equity, only 48% of the 60% equity was left, but the valuation of the shares exceeded the original 1.2 billion to nearly 4 billion. It was called a capital myth, and Zhou Anan was so happy that he couldn't sleep.

However, there is an important issue that almost kept Zhou Anan awake last night. He has lost his sole controlling interest in Celebrity Network.

However, after consulting professionals, Zhou Anan already had a solution, which was to integrate his shares with the two eldest ladies and three senior executives, and establish another company to hold 64% of the shares of Celebrity Network.

Zhou Anan can maintain absolute controlling rights in the celebrity network by holding a controlling stake in the new company.

The celebrity network is Zhou Anan's only capital that currently has a chance to resist the pressure from the Yu family, and he will never allow his controlling stake to fall by the wayside.

"I have no opinion."

As a technology geek who only cares about wealth appreciation, Pan Shaofu was the first to express his support.

"I agree."

"I agree."

Qi Liang and Jin Feng looked at each other and agreed with the big boss's opinion of consolidating their shares.

Compared with being on the verge of bankruptcy and unemployment a few months ago, their current wealth and status are all given by this big boss. People cannot forget their roots.

Besides, this plan has nothing to lose for them.

"Okay, then I will let someone specialize in handling this matter. Negotiate financing with several capitals. Mr. Qi, please follow up."

Zhou Anan expressed satisfaction with the reaction of the three carriages.

It was precisely because of the previous three people's support and enthusiasm for the celebrity network that Zhou An was given the power to give them the power to not interfere in the company's specific affairs.

Although the three of them were somewhat idealistic in their management of the company, and the beautiful secretary received many complaints from employees and even middle-level managers, Zhou Anan suppressed them.

No one is perfect, and the troika is rapidly changing as the company grows to adapt to the increasingly huge capital.

As long as the three people have no different intentions, Zhou Anan will not take back power. At most, the company's departmental powers will be clearer to make up for the lack of ability of a few people.

"BOSS, you should call me Lao Qi. I'm not used to this title."

Qi Liang said with some embarrassment after hearing what the big boss said.

Of course he has to maintain his dignity in front of ordinary employees, and he is also very comfortable with the title of 'general manager'.

But the big boss shouted that he must correct his attitude.

"You are already worth hundreds of millions, so you can't be called old. Okay, you go do your work."

Seeing Qi Liang's reaction, Zhou Anan burst into laughter and waved them off.

"OK."

After the meeting, Qi Liang immediately rushed back to the office to send the meeting minutes to TX, and contacted several companies to discuss financing matters.

As the company grew, his problems increased exponentially.

However, for Qi Liang, who is about to enter the ranks of hundreds of millions of net worth, everything is not a problem.

After finishing the meeting simply and simply, Zhou Anan looked at the time and saw that it was only 9 o'clock, which was a bit early.

Tomorrow afternoon he will attend the preview of Blue Whale Entertainment's first movie, and Zhou Anan has no way to return to Lucheng. He can't handle the celebrity network financing without him.

The other companies were all the same with or without him. Zhou Anan suddenly found that he had been busy for a while and had nothing to do after being idle for such a long time. He was really uncomfortable.

Hey, how could he have such an idea?

As soon as he finished sighing in his heart, Zhou Anan felt something was wrong.
