Chapter 285: Finale and Share Increase (Happy National Day)
Regarding love, everyone has their own standards in their hearts.

People who love each other stay together for a lifetime. This is the love that Quan Shui hopes for in his heart.

But obviously, it is not realistic to realize it with Qi Wei.

At least that's what Quan Shui thinks.

In fact, Quan Shui is a very stubborn person when it comes to love.

If a man cannot give him the love he wants, Quan Shui will not date him.

This was the case before meeting Qi Wei.

Quan Shui also thought that she would persist forever, and she did not expect that she would fail in front of Qi Wei.

Maybe it's because Qi Wei is indeed such an attractive man, or maybe he's very good at coaxing women with sweet words.

But Quan Shui himself knew that if he hadn't really been moved, he wouldn't have been able to push back to his apartment with a man he had only known for a day or two.

Then I couldn't help but play passionate music with him.

She enjoyed it but quickly recovered from this sinking state.

Of course she didn't feel any regrets.

I just feel sorry that I may not be able to continue with Qi Wei.

Qi Wei's Asian tour concert is not over yet, and the next concert will be held in Pengcheng, China.

Considering that Qi Wei wants to promote the road show of "That Man, That Mountain, That Dog", the time between these two concerts will be longer.

But there is only one week,

Considering that Qi Wei has to return to China in advance to prepare, Qi Wei will stay in Japan for up to five more days after the Tokyo Dome concert.

In other words, there are only five days of love.

For spring water, these five days are definitely not enough, but there is no way.

Now she just wants to cherish these five days of love.

Zhang Ziyi also wanted to film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", so she followed Lao Mouzi back to the mainland the day after the concert.

Cheng Hao could stay for a few more days, but she was already Qi Wei's woman after all, and he would have plenty of time to spend with her in the future, so in the next few days in Japan, Qi Wei spent as much time as possible with Quanshui.

Talk about music, culture and art. The two of them always have common topics and then do something they can't help but do.

Happy time always passes quickly, and five days passed in the blink of an eye.

In the early morning, when Qi Wei woke up from Quanshui's bedroom again, he found that the beauty beside him was no longer there.

Qi Wei walked out of her bedroom and found her sitting in front of the piano.

Quanshui was practicing the music Qi Wei composed for her, but in order not to disturb Qi Wei's sweet dream, she just played in the void.

But she was so serious that Quan Shui didn't notice that Qi Wei had come to her side.

Until Qi Wei gently pressed her hand, the beautiful sound of the piano sounded again.

After a few minutes of such warmth, the sound of the piano suddenly stopped.

"Did you stay up all night?" Qi Wei guessed after seeing the state of the spring water.

"I'm just afraid that you'll leave without saying goodbye and not see you in the morning." She tried her best to speak calmly to cover up her inner reluctance.

"I will not."

Qi Wei hugged her waist from behind and held a strand of her hair in his mouth, "I'm sorry."

Quan Shui shook his head slightly, smiled and said, "There is no need for you to apologize to me. I know your situation very well, and this is what I am willing to do."

Qi Wei's heart was slightly touched by Quan Shui's understanding, and he couldn't help but hug Quan Shui tighter.

"Will you come to Japan again in the future?" Quan Shui suddenly asked after being warm for a while.

"Of course I will, even if it's for you."

For Qi Wei, it is not easy to find a reason to come to Japan. For example, "That Man, That Mountain, That Dog" became a big hit in Japan. The distributor here is helping the film publicize the awards in Japan. Nine times out of ten, it will win the award. of.

At that time, Qi Wei can come to Japan to attend the award ceremony.

However, there is a high probability that Qi Wei will not be able to find time, as he still has several movies to shoot in the second half of this year.

Qi Wei then smiled and said: "In addition to me coming to Japan, you can also come to the mainland to find me when you miss me."

"I'm going to find you?" Quan Shui looked at Qi Wei in surprise.

The limitations of Japan's entertainment industry are there. Even if Japanese artists seek higher development, they still try their best to seek opportunities in Hollywood.

Even if the Chinese market attracts their attention, they will go to Hong Kong cities to seek opportunities instead of going to the mainland.

After all, the mainland entertainment industry is still in its emerging stage at this time and is still relatively lagging behind.

Therefore, very few Japanese artists came to the mainland at this time.

"Yes, I know you may have some stereotypes, but the real situation is far better than you think. The reason why Sony values ​​me so much is because it values ​​the mainland market behind me, and more importantly, there is no lack of experience in the mainland. Popularity, on the contrary, means many people know you."

Quan Shui has sung many classic animation tracks, such as the ending theme "My Friend" of "Slam Dunk", the opening theme "Turn of Fate" of "Detective Conan", and the opening theme "Can't Breathe" of "The Little Master of China". etc.

At this time, the two countries were in the honeymoon period, and a large number of Japanese animations were introduced to the mainland.

The ample market has given Japanese animation practitioners more enthusiasm and created more excellent animation works.

This also enriched the childhoods of many people born in the [-]s and [-]s.

Maybe not many people in the mainland know about Quanshui at this time, but there must be many who have heard her songs.

"If you miss me, you can come to the mainland. I still have some strength in the mainland. If you are willing, I can help you make arrangements."

"Well, please let me think about it again." At this moment, Quan Shui still seemed a little hesitant.

Qi Wei kissed Quan Shui's cheek, and then said: "I like and enjoy being with you very much, and I don't want us to drift apart because of distance."

Hearing this, Quanshui couldn't help but look at Qi Wei.

From Qi Wei's extremely clear black eyes, Quan Shui saw his sincerity.

Her eyes began to twinkle.

"'Gradually Attracted to You', can you play the song?" Qi Wei suddenly said.

Although he didn't know what Qi Wei wanted, Quan Shui still complied.

As the piano of the song "Gradually Attracted to You" played, Qi Wei also began to sing.

"Slowly my heart is moved by you

Because of the charming smile on your face
Put aside the pain
Break through the darkness and see the rainbow.”

The singing is still beautiful, but there is something more important.

After playing the song, Quan Shui immediately turned to look at Qi Wei with a look of shock.

"Is this the word you wrote in Chinese?"

"Gradually Attracted to You" is the opening theme song sung by Izumi for the anime "Dragon Ball GT".This song was released in 96, but "Dragon Ball GT" was only introduced to the mainland next year, and there is currently no Chinese version.

Qi Wei smiled and nodded, and then said: "I am very touched that you have spent so much energy on adapting my songs into Japanese, so I also decided to write Chinese lyrics for your songs. All the songs, "Gradually Be "You Attract" is the first song, I don't know if you like it or not."

"I like it very much." Although Quanshui still doesn't know what the lyrics written by Qi Wei mean, she has been deeply moved by Qi Wei's unique romance.

"I don't know how long our relationship can last, but at least it won't end until I rewrite all the songs for you with Chinese lyrics, okay?"

"Can you write more slowly?"

"Of course there is no problem." Qi Wei replied with a smile.

The spring water couldn't hold back any longer, so she smiled happily and kissed him actively.
Here comes a selfless confession.

When the song ended and everyone dispersed, Qi Wei flew back to the mainland from Japan that day.

Two days later, after the concert in Pengcheng, Qi Wei went to Brother Xiaolu's Paixun Company.

Refers to a deer as a horse.

"Mr. Qi, I didn't expect you to come here. The company is a bit rough, so please bear with me." Brother Xiaolu greeted him personally.

"Brother Lu, didn't you call to urge me to come?"

Qi Wei looked around, and as Brother Xiaolu said, his company was indeed very simple.

Less than fifty square meters and only a dozen employees.

Qi Wei nodded and said with a smile: "It can be seen that you did not waste my investment and used all the money wisely. This is good."

Seeing that Qi Wei was satisfied, Brother Xiaolu also laughed.

"I will definitely not betray your trust." With that, he welcomed Qi Wei into the office.

When he arrived at the office, Brother Xiaolu immediately reported the company's situation to Qi Wei.

Brother Xiaolu talked about a lot of professional data, but Qi Wei didn’t particularly understand many of them.

But Qi Wei also understood a general idea.

Although QQ has only been released for just over four months, it has already stood out among many instant messaging software and accounts for most of the market share.

It can be said that it is far ahead, far ahead.

"Our software can seize the market so quickly, thanks to Mr. Qi's publicity." Brother Xiaolu complimented.

It's not a compliment, he is telling the truth. Without Qi Wei as a spokesperson, QQ would not have been known to the public so quickly.

You must understand that a good product does not mean it will sell well. Bad money drives out good money. This situation is very common, especially in the competition on the Internet.

Technology is important, but publicity is often more important.

"You guys are also indispensable." Qi Wei also complimented.

Seeing that they were hesitant to speak, Qi Wei simply said: "You specially asked me to come to the company. It must be more than these things. Tell me what you want me to do."

Brother Xiaolu and his partner looked at each other, and then slowly said:

"Mr. Qi, I invite you here mainly because I want to talk about financing. You also know that the company's operating costs have always been high. Especially after the release of the software, the number of users surged, and the server and bandwidth costs increased instantly. After several times, the money has been spent like water, and it has almost bottomed out."

After all, Brother Xiaolu's company owns 25% of Qi Wei's shares. Qi Wei has also read his company's financial report and is very clear about his company's financial situation.

It's exactly what Brother Xiaolu said.

"So you just resell the concert I gave you. Are you so short of money?"

"We also want to go to your concert. There's nothing we can do about it. Even if we exchange tens of thousands of yuan, we can still pay for a few days."

Qi Wei didn't pursue it and asked, "How much are you planning to raise?"

"I'm going to take out 40% of the company's shares and raise US$500 million." Brother Xiaolu replied.

"40% 500 million U.S. dollars, which means our company is worth 1250 million U.S. dollars? Close to 1 million U.S. dollars?" Qi Wei couldn't help laughing.

The initial investment of 50 accounted for 25%, and the company's valuation was only 200 million. It was less than a year after its establishment, and it was close to a small goal.

It has increased nearly 50 times, which is really an exaggeration.

Of course, in the Internet industry, this is considered normal. After all, the Internet is now in a period of barbaric growth, especially the Internet bubble has not yet been burst.

You know, it's even more exaggerated in the United States. Take Yahoo, for example. The company's annual revenue through advertising and other services is only a few million dollars, but its market value has been blown up to tens of billions of dollars.

Even in China, QQ is nothing at this stage.

Portal websites such as Sina, NetEase and Sohu have already been valued at over [-] million yuan, which is still only a small amount of money.

They are planning to go public in the United States, and they are expected to double their value after the listing.

Seeing Qi Wei's surprised look, Brother Xiaolu felt a little proud. He smiled and explained:
"According to our estimates, QQ users will double several times in the next few years, and the corresponding operating expenses will also increase a lot, so it is necessary to raise so much money. Don't worry, we have contacted several investors, and they have also If you are interested, for example, the second son of the Li family in Hong Kong City is willing to invest 250 million yuan in exchange for 20% of the shares."

Although QQ is still in a stage of serious losses, and although QQ has no profit point yet, it does not prevent QQ from being favored by those investors.

After all, ICQ, the American software that QQ borrowed from, had just been acquired for over 4 million US dollars.

This can give these domestic instant messaging software the cost of investment.

20% of the shares can be exchanged for 250 million yuan, which is already a lot of premium in Brother Xiaolu's opinion, but in Qi Wei's opinion, it is really a cheap sale.

Qi Wei is very clear about the future value of Tongxun.

But others can't predict the future. Even the second son of the Li family was willing to invest 250 million yuan for the sake of Brother Xiaolu's "ordinary family".

Brother Xiaolu continued: "After all, you are also the major shareholder of my company. Major events such as financing must be notified to you. After all, this may dilute your shares. Of course, you can also invest appropriately to prevent dilution."

Brother Xiaolu took out 40% of the company's shares for financing, which means that after the financing is completed, the combined shares of Qi Wei, Brother Xiaolu and others are only 60%.

If Qi Wei does not follow the investment, Qi Wei's 25% shares will also be discounted by 6%, and will eventually be diluted to 15%.
Of course, according to the previous investment contract, Qi Wei can maintain 25% of the shares, but he must purchase the shares at a value-added price.

In other words, Qi Wei will spend 125 million yuan to purchase 10% of the shares.

125 million is only 1000 million, but it is nothing to Qi Wei.

He knew very well the future value of Tongxun, and he had already prepared tens of millions in cash for this purpose.

Qi Wei will definitely invest when it comes to financing, but what Qi Wei is thinking about now is how to take advantage of this opportunity to increase his shareholding.

For entrepreneurs like Brother Xiaolu, they can sell their shares for the development of the company, but they will not sell their shares to just one person.

Because one person owns too many shares, it increases their risk of losing the company.

When Qi Wei invested in them, he definitely wanted to take more shares, but they were unwilling.

Even if Qi Wei is willing to pay a higher price, it will be useless.

In the end, only 25% of the shares were given to Qi Wei.

In fact, Qi Wei had already thought of increasing shares.

After pretending to think about it, Qi Wei then said: "Brother Lu, I have thought of a way to get the second son of the Li family to invest more. I wonder if you are willing to listen to it?"
