Chapter 2121 The two elders are trying to bring each other together, but a forced melon is not sweet!
this day.
Fang Xiewen specially had the office cleaned spotlessly, and all the employees had no complaints. Everyone even looked a little excited. After all, they were going to raise funds next.
What does this mean?
It means that the company has the potential to develop. As the earliest batch of employees, if they are lucky enough that the company goes public, all of them will be at least millionaires. For example, a few years ago, on Baidu, the first 1000 employees were all millionaires.
Can you not be excited?
In the conference room, the seven or eight managers who were also watching the live broadcast were also on pins and needles. After all, they couldn't calm down at all until they had made their money.
"Lao Fang, when will Mr. Lei and the others arrive?"
"Haozi, you must have asked me more than 20 times in this half hour!" Fang Xiewen looked at his friend speechlessly.
"Boss, aren't you excited?" Lin Hao looked at him as if he were an alien.
"That's right, Mr. Fang. This is the famous Mr. Lei!"
Liu Junhao, who is in charge of the front end, usually doesn't even bother to wash his face, but today he put on that little suit, and even his hair looked like it had been licked by a calf. Even a fly would slip if it landed on it.
The name Beijing's Lei Jun has actually been well-known since 11.
"I..." Before Fang Xiewen could say anything, he saw the receptionist running in hurriedly.
"Boss Lei and his men are coming!"
"go!"
All management greeted us at the elevator entrance.
Shunwei Capital was led by Lei Jun, but Liu Qin of Morningside Venture Capital did not come. As a veteran investor, although he was optimistic about the project, he felt that it did not have the potential to become a unicorn. After all, the live streaming industry was ultimately restricted when smartphones were not fully popularized.
"Mr. Lei, I've finally got you here!" Fang Xiewen held Lei Jun's hand tightly.
This made Lei Jun quite embarrassed. He is actually a shy person at heart and is not used to this kind of excessive enthusiasm.
"Mr. Fang, you..."
"Boss Lei, you are too polite. Just call me Xiao Fang or Xie Wen!"
"Uh... Xiewen, you guys chose a good office building~" Lei Jun looked around the surrounding environment.
Fang Xiewen smiled secretly in his heart, this is not bad!
Can I say that in two years, you Xiaomi will also move to this colorful city?
meeting room.
Fang Xiewen and his entrepreneurial team sat on one side, and opposite them were two investment companies. Given Mr. Lei's social status, he naturally took the center position.
But don’t be fooled by the fact that they had a good chat when they first met and Lei Jun didn’t look like a boss, but once they got to the point, he seemed like a different person.
"Mr. Fang, your valuation is too outrageous. I cannot accept a price of 200 million!"
"Yes!" responded Hu Yun, representing Morningside Capital.
"Mr. Lei, Ms. Wendy, I believe that your two companies have gone through detailed background checks. It seems that you are a dark horse in the live broadcast field, especially with the recent start of the S2 season of lol. Although you have only been established for less than a month, you are already far ahead in the field of game live broadcasting!"
Fang Xiewen did not lie. It was mainly because the bird's-eye view allowed him to avoid many detours. For example, the live broadcast interface looked very harmonious to netizens, and it was not as ugly as other platforms. The gift display could be turned off during the game live broadcast.
Like other companies, in order to please consumers, a huge rocket suddenly appears when you are watching something, giving you an extremely bad viewing experience.
Just on the issue of valuation, the entire morning passed.
At noon, we were still in the hotel across the street, but the atmosphere changed instantly during the dinner. Lei Jun had a unique personal charm, and he seemed to be at home wherever he was. Although they didn't drink much, both the host and the guests had a great time.
Continuing in the afternoon, Fang Xiewen also insisted on the price of 1.2 million and refused to budge.
But Lei Jun was only willing to pay 7000 million.
"Gudong~" Lin Hao swallowed silently, watching Fang Xiewen and Lei Jun almost quarreling, with some worry in his eyes. 7000 million is enough!
The company they founded previously took more than three years to sell for more than 4000 million, and this month it was valued at 7000 million. They are simply too satisfied~
Fang Xiewen is a reborn person and he knows very well the details of the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of him.
Even after Lei Jun became successful, he always talked about how difficult it was to create Xiaomi, like how the office was cramped in the beginning and everyone just hurriedly ate a bowl of millet porridge.
In fact, Lei Zi is rich. Over the years, his investments in Kingsoft, Huya, and Cheetah Mobile have all brought him positive and generous returns.
Why not invest your own money?
This brings us back to the starting point. It is a consensus among all practitioners in Internet technology companies that it is a principle not to start a business using one's own money.
The first thing is to avoid risks
After all, starting a business is the top ten ways to lose money. This is not just a joke. Besides, our ancestors have already summed it up for us, which is that all your eggs should not be put in one basket. What if you lose all your money?
Besides, what he is pulling in is not investment, just like Fang Xiewen founded Yikan Live, does he really need tens of millions of financing?
Not necessarily!
For example, Shunwei Capital brings not only funds, but also its network resources in this circle, which can help the company develop better!
The same is true for Xiaomi. Among all Internet companies, with the exception of Lao Ding who raises pigs, Lei Jun holds a relatively large stake in the company. Others like Da Qiangzi, Lao Ma, Xiao Ma, etc. basically hold around 10%.
"Mr. Lei, happy cooperation!"
"Xie Wen, I'm very optimistic about you!"
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, the two of them acted as if the quarrel just now had never happened. Lei Jun patted Fang Xiewen's shoulder with great appreciation.
Because after fierce debate, Fang Xiewen's Yikan Live was valued at 8800 million, and he gave up 29% of his shares as a whole.
Shunwei Capital led the investment with 18%, and Morningside Venture Capital followed with 11%.
Before financing, the company had a total of five shareholders.
Fang Xiewen holds a 70% stake.
Lin Hao holds an 18% stake.
Xiao Zhou's shares 2%
Professor Zhao Zhongge 7%
Professor Qi Wenju 3%
After financing, the shares of all investors will inevitably decline.
Fang Xiewen's shares are only 49.7
The others are Lin Hao 12.78, Xiao Zhou 1.48, Zhao Zhongge 4.97, and Qi Wenju 2.13.
He has lost absolute controlling rights. Under normal circumstances, the founder would definitely be worried about gains and losses, after all, the company he created is about to be taken over by someone else.
But Fang Xiewen obviously didn't have this idea. He didn't care about the shares at all. As long as it didn't delay the listing and cashing out, he could even step down and stop being the CEO.
The shares may even be reduced in the future because an employee option pool needs to be established. At least 10 to 15 shares must be retained, otherwise it will be impossible to attract talent.
On New Year's Day, the family compound was particularly lively.
Although they had been arguing about divorce, it had been almost half a year and the divorce certificate had not yet been issued. Naturally, Fang Xiewen was still the legitimate son-in-law of the Huang family.
"Mom and Dad, Happy New Year!"
"Okay, okay, kid, you're here so come here, why do you bring so many things?" Wu Jiangyue was not being polite.
"They are all local specialties given by friends and my hotel has no place to put them!"
"Then come live at my house. It's not like we don't have a place for you to sleep~"
Hearing her father say this, Huang Yimei, who was playing with her daughter, raised her head instantly.
Move to the Huang family?
Of course it is what you want!
But Fang Xiewen noticed the nervousness in Huang Yimei's eyes, and guessed that although she had never mentioned divorce again, she had not made up her mind to continue living together.
Twisted melons are not sweet.
"Dad, I'm busy with work right now. I'm in the start-up phase and sometimes I don't work day or night. I'll come back to bother you when things are more stable!"
"Oh~" Huang Jianzhi glanced at his daughter and didn't say anything else.
To be continued...
