Hundred Times Rebate At The Beginning, Please Call Me The Sponsor Daddy

After seeing the information on the business card, many wealthy people at the scene were shocked.

Zhang’s Consortium, Zhang Zhe? !

Even though everyone had some guesses in their hearts when they saw Zhang Zhiyuan half a step behind, they were still a little shocked when they were really confirmed.

Like Zhang Yiming, many people thought that the owner of Zhang’s Consortium was Zhang Zhiyuan. After all, his surname was Zhang, and he had been in charge of investment business for many years.

I never expected that the boss behind Zhang’s Consortium was so young!

From Zhang Zhiyuan’s attitude, it can be seen that he is completely focused on this young man, so naturally everyone will not regard Zhang Zhe as a junior.

Many wealthy people present are either bigwigs in the Internet industry or heads and partners of major investment banks.

They have a deeper understanding of Zhang’s Consortium than Zhang Yiming.

Don’t look at the size of Zhang’s Consortium, which seems to be only tens of billions of US dollars, which is far from top capital giants such as Sequoia and Softbank.

But the two are completely incomparable.

Once the amount of funds reaches a certain scale, if rights are not involved, the difference is not very big.

Capital giants such as Sequoia and Softbank have money, but that is the money of countless investors. The funds are subject to great restrictions. Any investment of more than 100 million yuan must be reported and reviewed layer by layer.

And the Zhang Consortium is a truly private asset!

People’s own money, you can use it however you want.

Hundreds of billions of dollars are enough to cause turmoil in the financial market!

More importantly, when the founder of the foundation, Zhang Zhonghua, passed away a few years ago, he was approved to cover the flag…

At their level, even if they have no background at the beginning, they can’t do without the support of power behind them, and they can understand many secrets unknown to ordinary people.

It is said that the background of the Zhang Consortium comes from the top.

Now seeing Zhang Zhe representing the Zhang Consortium to attend this signing ceremony, his identity is obvious.

However, the event is about to start, and this signing ceremony will be broadcast live.

Almost all the people present were top billionaires with a net worth of tens or hundreds of billions. They didn’t go over to greet Zhang Zhe directly like they did at the CMB cocktail party a few days ago.

But their attention was subconsciously focused on Zhang Zhe.

“Mr. Zhang.”

Not long after Zhang Zhe sat down, a not-so-standard Mandarin suddenly came from his side.

Zhang Zhe turned his head and saw Lei Jun walking over with a very contagious smile on his face. He extended his hand and greeted:

“Let me introduce myself. I’m Lei Jun.”

Although Zhang Zhe came with Jin Yang, today they were attending a signing ceremony, not a business cocktail party.

The first row was separated separately. Those sitting here were all shareholders of ByteDance, so it was naturally inconvenient to bring a female companion.

The seat to the right of Zhang Zhe was Zhang Yiming, and the nameplate on the seat to the left read Lei Jun, who was also a shareholder of ByteDance.

When entering the venue just now, Lei Jun was chatting with others somewhere else. Now seeing him coming over and taking the initiative to say hello, Zhang Zhe also stood up and greeted him:

“Hello, Mr. Lei, I am Zhang Zhe.”

“Mr. Zhang, your foundation is very generous this time.”

After shaking hands, the two sat down, and Lei Jun said with a smile:

“I have always been very concerned about this round of financing of ByteDance. I didn’t expect that your foundation would beat all major capitals and get the lead investment share in the end. It is true that heroes emerge young…”

“Mr. Lei, you are too kind.”

Zhang Zhe waved his hand and said modestly:

“My achievements are far behind Mr. Lei.”

Respect is mutual.

Although Zhang Zhe now has endless money and an extremely deep background, he will not be arrogant because of this.

What’s more, the person in front of him is a real business veteran.

His life experience is simply a refreshing story of a grassroots counterattack.

Many people think that Lei Jun made his fortune by relying on rice, but in fact he had achieved financial freedom before he founded rice.

I started to learn computers and programming in my freshman year, and the homework I wrote in my sophomore year was selected into the textbooks. I completed the university course in two years.

During college, I earned my first pot of gold in my life by relying on technology. Later, I was invited to join Kingsoft, and turned the tide under the siege of Microsoft and led Kingsoft to rise.

Ding Sanshi and Xiao Ma Ge were both webmasters of the BBS forums he invested in at the beginning.

As the most famous angel investor in China, he is behind countless well-known companies.

YY, CU Browser, Bihu, Xunlei, Aiqiyi, Bingxixi, Slow Hand…

Including the current ByteDance.

Although Lei Jun is only ranked 11th on this year’s rich list.

But that is because he holds a large number of shares in unlisted unicorn companies, including Da Mi, and the valuations areIt is not included in his net worth.

Most of his net worth is real cash.

So there is a nickname in the circle:

Beijing Cash King!

His status and influence in the business world are much higher than Shuang Ma.

If Zhang Zhe were to choose one of the countless entrepreneurs in China that he admires the most, it would definitely be Lei Jun in front of him.

He truly started from scratch and has come to his current position step by step. He is a model of knowledge changing destiny.

“Mr. Zhang is too modest.”

Lei Jun smiled and replied:

“Although I am also optimistic about the future development of ByteDance, I may not have the courage to invest 3 billion US dollars…”

Lei Jun’s words… Zhang Zhe really couldn’t respond.

You can’t say that I don’t lack money, right?

“I don’t want to be so ‘bold’, but unfortunately I don’t have such a good vision as Mr. Lei.”

Zhang Zhe joked:

“ByteDance is developing so well now. If you don’t get on board, you will have no chance…”

After just two sentences of conversation, Lei Jun’s evaluation of Zhang Zhe rose sharply.

At the age of just 20, he has tens of billions of dollars in wealth. Not only is he not arrogant, but he is very humble.

I just praised myself for being bold, and I was immediately praised for my good vision.

This is exactly the case.

Four years ago, in ByteDance’s C round of financing, Lei Jun only spent 50 million US dollars in exchange for 10% of the shares.

Although the shares have been diluted to 7.42% after the last two rounds of financing, Lei Jun is still the third largest shareholder besides Zhang Yiming and Zhang Zhe.

With the current size of ByteDance, the valuation of his shares has reached about 2 billion US dollars, and this investment has increased 40 times.

After this round of financing, ByteDance will grow even faster, and it may become the most successful investment in his life.

Lei Jun couldn’t help but sigh in his heart that Zhang Zhe’s thinking and emotional intelligence were not like those of a young man.

No wonder he has taken over the power of the foundation at this age.

“I’m just lucky. I have lost a lot of money in the projects I invested in these years.”

After a wave of mutual praise, Lei Jun did not continue the topic and replied casually:

“Mr. Zhang, if I remember correctly, you used to work on foreign projects. Now you have officially entered ByteDance. Are you preparing to shift your focus to the domestic market?”

Xiao Ma Ge, who was sitting on the left of Lei Jun and had been silent, instantly pricked up his ears after hearing this.
