Looking back on 2009

Chapter 246 The Venture Capital Arrives
"What do you think?" Zhang Yiyi adjusted his glasses and looked at several people in the company.

Several people looked at each other, and then one of them said: "Could it be that the other party is fooling us, maybe their company is not as fast as ours?"

Seeing that someone had spoken, the others also spoke one after another.

Zhang Yiming listened to the speech with a blank face, knocked on the table, and said, "Go ahead, I'll think about it later."

Other people's words made his heart a little cold.

Everyone is concerned about how to cooperate, and almost no one says not to cooperate, which means that everyone is a little afraid of the sudden competition.

Sighing, Zhang Yiyi took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes.

It seems that cooperation is also everyone's idea.

But what they said is also reasonable, cooperation is fine, at least you must first know what the other party is like.

Also, I also have investors on my side, and I have to persuade them when I go to cooperate with others.

It is said that it is cooperation, but it is not merged.

After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone at hand.

……

Magic City.

In an office building by the Huangpu River.

Tang Wan, who was dressed in business attire, was flipping through a document with a curious look on her face.

"Bike sharing?"

Recently, the company's marketing department reported a piece of information, saying that a new start-up company appeared in the market, and its business was to operate shared bicycles.

This made Tang Wan, who had stayed in the United States for many years, very interested.

In her opinion, such an environmentally friendly idea seems more reasonable if it is in the United States, a country where environmental protection is politically correct.

Moreover, it can still be regarded as an Internet company, which should be quite in line with the company's investment philosophy.

Looking through the materials carefully, Tang Wan felt more and more interesting about this project, no, there is a market for it.

It was founded in Jiangcheng, and it has grown to Shanghai and Yanjing within a year. This not only shows that the founder is capable, but also shows that the company's business is in demand.

Picking up the phone, after making a few calls to the marketing department and asking a few questions, Tang Wan made a decision after talking for a while.

After all, it is what I think, it is better to go and see.

Although she was dispatched from the US headquarters, Tang Wan's status here is not low, and she has a lot of decision-making power.

Tang Wan, who was still young, also wanted to make some achievements, thinking that she would have to fight for a turnaround, and slapped her competitor hard in the face.

Turning on the computer, she soon found the official website of Baike Company.

After finding the contact information, she picked up the phone and called.

……

Chen Zhihe was thinking about Zhang Yiming in his room when he was suddenly interrupted by the sound of the phone.

Seeing that it was Lei Jun calling, Chen Zhihe answered the phone.

"What's wrong, Brother Jun?"

"Where are you?"

"I'm in Yanjing."

"Why are you going to Yanjing?"

"Uh...something happened, what's the matter?"

Seeing that Chen Zhihe didn't say anything clearly, Lei Jun didn't ask again, and said happily, "Guess what I want from you?"

Chen Zhihe smiled and said, "I can't guess, but it must be a good thing."

Lei Jun smiled: "An investment institution has contacted us and wants to talk to us."

Chen Zhihe was overjoyed when he heard that, it really is, double happiness.

"Do you know why?"

Lei Jun said: "I didn't ask in detail, but the other party said it was an investment institution in the United States."

Chen Zhihe thought for a while and said, "When did the other party come? Are you going to Jiangcheng?"

Lei Jun said: "It is said that I will come next week, but it is not ruled out that I will come to find out in advance."

Chen Zhihe thought for a while, and said, "That's fine, you hold on first, I'll hurry back here as soon as possible."

Lei Jun seemed a little excited and asked, "Then shall we prepare?"

Chen Zhihe said: "No need, since the other party has notified us, we probably have understood what should be understood, and the impromptu preparations have fallen behind."

Lei Jun nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, so what should you do? Just wait for the other party to come. Then you should return as soon as possible."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Zhihe had a smile on his face.

It seems that the strategies of Shanghai Metropolis and Yanjing are correct, only in these cities can they attract the attention of the limelight.

In essence, the development speed of shared bicycles is directly proportional to the investment. As an asset-heavy industry, the more venture capital money, the better.

Excitedly, Chen Zhihe jumped up on the bed, maybe it was really the blessing of his ancestors.

At the beginning of this year, I just went to deliver the light, and the effect is so obvious.

Of course, this is just a joke. Chen Zhihe is clear about whether there is a market for shared bicycles and whether there is a prospect. He believes that it is impossible for those keen investors to react.

After a while, Chen Zhihe, who had lost his excitement, calmed down.

After all, shared bicycles are short-lived. Although it has been advanced a few years because of its own appearance, it is not clear whether its fate can be changed.

But Byte was the number one unicorn in the world later on, so we can't chase after the end.

It is still the right way to trap Zhang Yiyi first.

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao will be here, Chen Zhihe was thinking, Zhang Yiming called.

"Mr. Zhang, hello, have you made a decision so soon?"

Chen Zhihe was a little surprised, it took only a long time for Zhang Yiyi to figure it out?
Zhang Yiming said calmly: "Mr. Chen, I have made up my mind and we can cooperate, but we have to discuss how to cooperate."

While talking, Zhang Yiyi sighed inwardly.

He made several phone calls just now, all of them are acquaintances in the industry, and they all have one thing in common - Yanda Computer came out.

Over the years, Zhang Yiyi has accumulated some contacts, and I dare not say anything else, it is still very easy to inquire about something.

Through one of them, Zhang Yiming verified what Chen Zhihe said.

The other party was very familiar with a member of Liu Chengan's team, so he made a phone call to ask about the situation casually, and then got out of the way.

Thanks to Liu Cheng'an's high efficiency, Chen Zhihe just finished talking to him yesterday, and he immediately held a meeting with the team and put the target product on Toutiao.com.

Originally, their core code was almost ready, and there was no technical difficulty in the specific application. When the other party asked, the person in the team said that the product was coming out soon.

Hearing the news, Zhang Yiyi also gave up his final fantasy and decided to choose cooperation.

Immediately afterwards, he contacted the investor, and after some explanation, the investor had no choice but to agree.

After all, real money was invested. In such a situation, even if Zhang Yiyi refused to agree to cooperate, they would also ask for cooperation.

Cooperation may also pay off, but it is not as high as before; if you do not cooperate, you may lose everything.

As an investor, they don't care what your founder thinks.

Chen Zhihe was very happy to hear Zhang Yiming's answer, chuckled and said, "Mr. Zhang is indeed a smart person, and he made a wise choice. How about this, you guys contact them first, and I will come forward later. .”

Zhang Yiyi gave a "hmm" and said, "Okay, then I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

Chen Zhihe laughed and said, "It's a pleasant cooperation."
