My Age of Investment

When Xia Jingxing heard this familiar name, his heart moved, but he still pretended to be calm and asked calmly, "What is he doing with you?"

"He wants to buy Youyoumi!"

Rao Lei said these words lightly, and at the same time, he also glanced at Xia Jingxing, paying attention to the changes in the latter's expression.

Xia Jingxing's expression was indifferent, because this was the final destination of Youyoumi in his previous life, and now that Chen Yizhou came to contact him on behalf of the Thousand Oaks Group, he was not surprised at all.

Noticing that Xia Jingxing was silent, Liu Jian, who was sitting beside Rao Lei, interjected, "He expressed his willingness to offer five million dollars in cash to acquire us wholly."

Kristina sneered, "Isn't that the same valuation as Youyoumi's angel round investment a year ago?

A year has passed and the company's valuation hasn't risen by a dollar? That Mr. Chen can really make an offer. "

Xia Jingxing did not speak, he knew the result of this investment before, it was purely a lonely investment, and he was destined to not make a lot of money.

Liu Jian nodded, "Yes, we also think this offer is very unreasonable, it is really too little.

However, Chen Yizhou also said that he is willing to make some concessions on valuation if he agrees to exchange shares.

Moreover, this is only the first round of contact, and it is still far from the final reserve price. "

Kristina crossed her arms, looked at Liu Jian and Rao Lei meaningfully, and said with a smile: "As a strategic investment shareholder of Youyoumi, Facebook has always been very supportive of the two.

If the two of you have any ideas, you can say it directly.

If the idea is reasonable, we will definitely support it. "

Rao Lei waved his hand, "Miss Christina, you misunderstood.

We have no other ideas, and we are not tempted by the conditions offered by Thousand Oaks Group.

We thought that we should manage Youyoumi well.

It's just that domestic SNS websites started at about the same time.

To put it harshly, these entrepreneurs are almost all imitators and followers of dating sites.

so,

Everyone does not have much innovation in functions and products, and they are almost evenly matched in terms of funds and talents.

Now that Youyoumi has developed like this, some of them do not meet our expectations and have failed the trust of shareholders.

We chose to inform you of this news mainly because we did not want to hide anything, and hoped that we would have full communication and mutual trust. "

Yang Niu thought that the two of them wanted to sell the company, but they didn't expect it to be.

Selling the company for five million dollars, the biggest losers are undoubtedly the two shareholders of Facebook and Axel, who invested one million dollars together, and finally recovered one million dollars.

Not a penny earned, a year wasted in vain.

The two founders are not the same. If the employee stock ownership is not counted, they can share almost four million US dollars.

Not to mention making a lot of money, but it can also be called the biggest gainer from selling a company.

Yang Niu stopped talking and looked at Xia Jingxing who had been silent.

Liu Jian and Rao Lei also looked at the real principal.

Xia Jingxing understood it. The two of them were probably worried that they were not satisfied with the speed of Youyoumi's development, so they threw an acquisition to test their reaction.

So he said with a smile: "The reason why venture capital adds the word "risk" in front of investment is because its investment is very risky.

Where can there be absolute capital preservation and absolute profit making projects?

Two senior brothers, don't have too much pressure.

Do you see that Facebook has invested in you this year, has it interfered in your affairs? Does it put pressure on you?

Not at all!

Investing in you will naturally give you absolute trust.

You just need to manage the website well, don't worry too much about the rest.

I am not a person who only values ​​short-term benefits and has no sense of risk.

Youyoumi now has nearly one million users, and is regarded as the largest SNS website in China. The development cannot be called particularly good, but it is not bad either.

Entrepreneurship is a rally, and in the end it depends on the future.

We have enough patience to wait and wait for Youyoumi to create better results. "

Hearing Xia Jingxing's remarks, Rao Lei and Liu Jian felt a lot more at ease.

They really wanted to test Xia Jingxing's reaction when they told Thousand Oaks Group's door-to-door talks about the acquisition.

To be honest, Youyoumi's development is not particularly ideal. They are very worried that shareholders such as Facebook and Axel will lose patience and give up Youyoumi.

But Xia Jingxing didn't care about it at all, which made them both gratified and a little sad.

They are a step-by-step witness to how Facebook has grown from nothing and has gradually grown.

Compared with Facebook, which is now valued at billions of dollars and top-tier venture capitalists are begging for investment, the development of Youyoumi is indeed somewhat unmanageable.

However, both of them are in their thirties, and their minds are very mature. After talking about the work, and knowing that Xia Jingxing had no great opinion on Youyoumi's development, they stopped talking and started chatting. gossip.

Everyone was friends, Xia Jingxing didn't put on any airs and chatted with the two of them very casually.

When he heard that Kristina spent the new year at Xia Jingxing's house, Rao Lei was stunned for a moment, then he reacted, pointed to Xia Jingxing, and laughed loudly:

"It seems that you are proud of your career and love, Jing Xing! Congratulations, when will you invite me to a wedding wine?"

Xia Jingxing had no choice but to say with a smile, "This is not urgent, I will inform you when the time comes, and I will definitely have enough wine."

Rao Lei nodded, "Okay, then I can wait."

Liu Jian also hurriedly raised his glass and congratulated: "Jing Xing, you and Miss Christina, you can be called talented and talented, joining forces! Come, toast to you."

"Haha, the prize is over."

Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu also raised their wine glasses and clinked with Liu Jian.

…………

…………

the next day.

Under the leadership of Liu Jian and Rao Lei, the two went to Youyoumi Company to visit.

The company is small, with only twenty or thirty employees.

These employees have just returned from vacation and have not yet entered the working state.

Seeing the two bosses enter the company with a young man and a red-haired babes, they immediately became interested.

Young people want to go online, and many people recognize this as a shareholder of the company and the founder of Facebook.

Rao Lei called the staff together and introduced Xia Jingxing and Christina solemnly.

The employees are very excited. I have long heard that the company has a great shareholder, and this time I finally saw it.

Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu were almost younger than the employees present, but they were in control of an Internet company with a valuation of several billion dollars.

In their eyes, the two started from scratch and dropped out of school to start a business. This is too legendary, and they talked and discussed each other.

After a brief visit to Youyoumi, Rao Lei also asked Xia Jingxing to give a speech to the employees to cheer up.

Xia Jingxing refused, but he had to say a few words.

Each of these young employees listened carefully, and some took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

2004 was the first year of mobile phone photography, and megapixel mobile phones were born in this year.

Many young people are following the trend and have bought mobile phones with camera functions.

After a snap, the photos of Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu were uploaded to Youyoumi's social networking site by these employees.

Youyoumi also has functions related to image uploading, which are similar to foreign social network products.

After the visit, Xia Jingxing and Yang Niu declined Rao Lei's retention and came to the airport, preparing to return to the United States.

At this time, Xia Jingxing received a call from Liu Hai.

"Jing Xing, have you returned to the United States?"

"At the airport, getting ready to board."

"It might need to be changed, someone wants to see you."

...

After hanging up the phone, Xia Jingxing shrugged towards Yang Niu and spread out his hands, "I can't go anymore, why don't you go back to America first?"
