Investment Life

Chapter 63:

For many people, adulthood should be a big deal, but Chen Yuanming's focus has never been here. For him, the only meaning of "second" adulthood is that he has most of the rights that the law can give.

Switching to the United States, although he still couldn't go upright to buy wine, he was enough to register the company with his identity and become a real "boss". This is very important for Chen Yuanming today.

Without saying hello to others, the next day after his birthday, Chen Yuanming took Zhang Gang and Song Kaiwen to Delaware. In the United States, Delaware is a very unique place. It has an extremely relaxed tax exemption policy, which can obtain the largest preferential tax rates through a series of operations, and has a more complete legal system than other offshore areas. These unique conditions It has attracted countless listed companies, and more than 50% of the top 500 companies are registered in the state, which is a well-deserved "capital of enterprises".

Of course, for Chen Yuanming, what is most tempting here is the tax exemption policy and extremely strict confidentiality measures for non-U.S. Residents. Only with these two points can he make room for great efforts.

It took only two weeks before and after a series of formal procedures, a new company was born in Delaware. It is currently the most popular liability company in the United States with a registered capital of 10 million US dollars. The company's owner is Chen Yuanming. This brand new company is almost an empty shelf and currently has only one business: venture capital.

With the company's relevant documents, Chen Yuanming flew back to Silicon Valley. At the Aaron Investment Agency on Shashan Road, he found Mr. Evan Jonathan who had served himself.

Almost a year has passed since we came here last time, but Mr. Jonathan is still very impressed with this Chinese boy. Without him, this young man invested in a total of 3 companies in Aaron, of which USB company was acquired by Microsoft. The profit is more than US $ 2 million, which is more than 10 times the initial investment. The game company has made one of the hottest games of the year, with over 500,000 units sold in one month. Not surprisingly, this will also be a hen laying golden eggs.

And that instant messaging company, the first-generation finished product icq has been developed, and has also passed the test and patent registration, but in the end he did not choose to let it go public or start selling. Instead, he injected another 500,000 US dollars to expand his own equity and put the software Uploaded to the Internet for free, for free download.

Three maverick choices have yielded three inestimable results. The Chinese boy's eyes and wrists are breathtaking, so when Chen Yuanming arrived in Jonathan's hands, he looked at it with surprise. The English name in front of me, "Point Goldstone?"

Chen Yuanming smiled. "That's right, this is my new company. I just bought a house at the corner of the street, and the job advertisement was only displayed. It is still empty."

"But ..." Jonathan really didn't know what to say. It only took more than half a year from participating in venture capital to setting up a venture capital company. Is this young man too confident or hot-headed?

Chen Yuanming didn't care about the other party's confusion and directly throws out his own problems. "This company is led by me and I decide on the investment direction, but we still need a group of key management personnel, especially if you have sufficient venture capital. Experienced and good at communicating with visitors. If you are interested, would you like to come to my company to try? There will never be a biarlon difference in treatment, and I promise it will be more interesting. "

Interesting ... Jonathan was momentarily dumb when I heard this description, but when I think about my experience with this partner, I have to admit that it is indeed full of surprises. Angel investment is not like a stock market or investment bank, but a real risk, but every successful investment brings not only monetary benefits, but also a strong sense of satisfaction in building a new industry. And pride, if you choose the employer in front of you, whether you can get huge wealth or not, but his career will definitely be very exciting and ... interesting.

He smiled slightly, and Jonathan shook his head helplessly, "I find no reason to refute you."

"Because this is a fact." Chen Yuanming's eyes were full of determination, and he extended his right hand to him. "So, happy cooperation?"

Half a month later, Dianjinshi officially opened its business, consisting of four general partners and six executives, while lawyers and accountants commissioned well-known American professional agencies to act as agents. But unlike the style of other venture capital firms, the first thing this new company does is register an international domain name through the US worksolutionsnsi company.

At this time, the Internet in the United States was still in its infancy. As of the end of 1993, the number of national domain names in the United States was only over 7,000. Registering a domain name also required a $ 100 registration fee, and a low-cost server rental fee was required to set up a web page. However, Chen Yuanming still opened the company's special webpage, and made it a link with the Blizzard homepage just completed.

At the time of sale, Mike accepted Chen Yuanming's suggestions, registered a website, and printed it on the outer packaging of floppy disks and CD-ROMs. He promoted Blizzard's games through the homepage, released the latest news, and set up a special message board to accept the majority of players. Comments and suggestions. This move is unprecedented in the game industry. It instantly caused a sensation among Blizzard players who are mainstream on computers. A large number of clicks followed, and it also attracted some friends of similar websites.

But the website of a venture capital company? You should know that the venture capital industry at this time is far from revealing its mysterious veil. Large-scale venture capital companies such as Sequoia Capital, Japan's SoftBank and kpcb are only focusing on small companies that have formed and have full potential. Bet on the profits that are at your fingertips, and nascent companies that are still in their infancy are out of their sight. A venture capital company, and a angel investment-based venture capital company, using this method to promote itself is obviously a very surprising and confusing thing.

However, even with concerns, there are still some small companies or individuals who come to the door. Some of them are just tentative temptations, others are luck. In response to these visitors, Dian Jinshi did a lot of preliminary work to screen out those with sincerity and practicality, while those who played around were uniformly politely rejected. A few times faster than the traditional speed, the company received a large number of planning documents in an instant, which also brought considerable pressure to several employees.

As the company owner, of course, Chen Yuanming couldn't run away, and he was wrestling with all kinds of strange data every day. He wanted to find gold mines in the sand sea. In the early stage, due to the impact of Blizzard, the companies that came to the door were mostly game studios. Chen Yuanming currently owns a next-generation distribution company established in cooperation with News Corporation: Eagle's Nest Entertainment, which is favored by those studios in its infancy. Not only has the developed bungie studio come to seek initial financing, but it has just made Magic. The Coast Wizards Company, even the Westwood Company, which already has a mature system, is on the line with Eagle Nest.

Investing in a game company is a matter of great courage. Not only is it slow to take effect, but sometimes it is also extremely risky. Chen Yuanming has to sink his heart and slowly build his own Eagle Nest Empire. However, in early May, things suddenly turned around. Mike from Irvine called. It is said that because of the internet connection, he met two very good web page producers. At present, their career has encountered a bottleneck and they need a startup capital to start a new company. He I recommended a little bit of gold to them.

This is the first time Mike has made such a call. To know that the well-known game studios have not received such a warm recommendation from them, Chen Yuanming can not help but have a hint of curiosity, "What is the name of the studio you said?"

"Jerry and david's web guide information database is a retrieval system software that can search for information scattered on the Internet. Our Blizzard homepage was included in the directory of games by them, which is very fast and convenient." There was praise in his voice, "Yes, I remember that jerry was also a Chinese."

Internet search, Chinese founder ... Need more tips? The big fish that was about to go fishing was delivered to the door by itself.

Soon, Yang and David, two Stanford college students, came to Chen Yuanming. What else can they say as anglers who have no doubt about the future? After seeing the development of Blizzard and the promotion of this fresh and incomparable propaganda mode on the Jinshi website, the two men and Chen Yuanming almost signed the agreement and randomly signed a cooperation agreement. Chen Yuanming injected $ 500,000 in the company of the two, accounting for among them 10% of shares, not involving management. Prior considerations can also be given to the first round of financing after the establishment of the company.

auzw.com This agreement can be described as the guests and the hosts are happy. After submitting the agreement, Chen Yuanming asked with a smile. "Well, what's your company's name?"

"It should be called yahoo!" The slightly Chinese young man scratched his head. "Roaming in the ocean of the Internet, aren't we computer people like those foreign tourists who have no experience or education? I think the name is perfect. "

"Yes, that's a good name."

With a consistent smile, Chen Yuanming sent away these two legends of the Internet era. From the start of the company to the present, in just two months, Dianshi has spent more than 5 million US dollars for various investments, from Yahoo in Langzhong to Bungie to be fed, and Blizzard, ICQ, which still needs further financing. Or the Wizard of the Coast, none of these companies will become a huge gold mine with full potential in the future, but now he has to nurture them with a lot of cash and put them under their own wings. Coupled with the domestic development layout, the heavy pressure caused the cash flow in his hands to start to tighten and become stretched. How to multiply the 30 to 40 million US dollars in cash at hand has become Chen Yuanming's most concerned thing at present.

how should I do it? Looking back, Chen Yuanming looked at the distant east coast, the paradise of financial trade ...
