Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

Yu Sheng was quite moved by his words. ☮♕ 💘ඏGoogle search reading

However, this valuation amount far exceeded his investment authority.

"Wait a moment, I can't make a decision on this project right away. Let me call Mr. Ma and report on the project's progress."

"No rush, good wine is worth waiting for, and good food is worth the wait. Let's meet again tomorrow," Li Haoyu said with a smile.

After saying that, he left the conference room.

Give Yu Sheng enough opportunity to communicate.

While Yu Sheng was reporting, Wang Hui from Capital Today immediately called Xu Xin.

The report also covered the content of today's talks.

Due to the time difference, Xu Xin was already resting.

She had only been asleep for a short while when Wang Hui's phone rang, waking her up. Her voice sounded clearly tired.

Xu Xin has been helping companies preparing for their IPOs with their roadshows these past few days. She hasn't had a proper rest for several days in a row, and she has devoted almost all her energy to it in order to ensure a good opening price for the stock.

So she specifically instructed that unless there was something special, people should not disturb her rest.

But Haotuan.com is an exception, after all, she was Haotuan.com's initial angel investor.

Now that Haotuan.com is thriving and has unlimited potential, this investment has become one of her proudest achievements. Therefore, she specifically instructed that any progress made at this meeting must be reported immediately.

After listening to Wang Hui's report, Xu Xin immediately perked up.

It seems this negotiation is going very well. If Haotuan can get Tengda involved, then Haotuan's future will be immeasurable.

If Xu Xin had cashed out and left, she could now have made dozens or even hundreds of times her initial investment without any risk.

But Xu Xin believes that Haotuan is not only a good company, but can even become a great company.

The investment strategy for good companies is: first, to be patient and hold them for the long term.

When you encounter a great team that has the potential to become a great company, you should take it even more seriously.

Therefore, she absolutely cannot leave now, because she believes that with that young man leading the group, she will definitely be able to earn more money.

Xu Xin's own investment philosophy is very simple:

Investing should begin with investing in the industry; secondly, investing in the founders; and finally, considering the price.

Of these three points, the most difficult to judge is the founder.

In China, if you choose the wrong bed, the investment is unlikely to succeed.

As for the best group, the one she trusted the most was Li Haoyu.

She imagined Li Haoyu to be a man who would constantly create miracles.

Therefore, we absolutely cannot leave this time; Capital Today will definitely continue to invest.

Xu Xin said, "Now, help me find the next flight back to China."

They quickly got in touch with Little Ma, the key figure behind Tenda.

"Based on this negotiation, what kind of person do you think he is?"

Yu Sheng remained silent for a long time before speaking, "At first, I thought HaoTuan was a technology-driven internet company, and the founder must be a programmer with a geeky temperament."

"However, after meeting him, my initial impression of him was overturned."

"Oh, that's interesting. Tell me in detail how they differ." Little Ma adjusted his glasses on the other end of the video and asked with great interest.

"How should I put it? He's tactful without being mercenary, complex and multifaceted; he's a man with a lot of personal charm."

Pony Ma sighed, "Now that you mention it, I'd like to meet him in person. From a purely investment perspective, do you think it's worth it? Does Tenda need to get involved?"

Yu Sheng said with certainty, "It's worth it. HaoTuan's future is definitely worth investing in, but the valuation is still up for discussion."

He went on to explain, "The prospects are indeed as he said. If Tengda can cooperate with Haotuan, it will be equivalent to breaking down the barriers between online and offline."

"HaoTuan will take off by solving traffic issues. Tengda has hundreds of millions of active users and can leverage HaoTuan to bring in stores and merchants, thereby increasing user reach and usage frequency."

"The combined force of the two will surely bring about an extraordinary shockwave."

"But I'm still a little unwilling to be led by the nose like this," Yu Sheng said after a pause.

"What's wrong?" Little Ma asked, somewhat puzzled.

Yu Sheng shook his head and smiled, "Actually, I know this isn't rational. In the end, it's just jealousy. I envy the young people of today who are eager to take risks."

"HaoTuan.com has only been established for a short time, but it already has the aura of a tiger and a wolf. I'm afraid it won't be long before it can join the ranks of the top-tier companies and even compete with Tenda."

Pony Ma remained calm and said indifferently, "So what? One person can't earn all the money. It's better for him to earn it than for Alibaba-affiliated companies to dominate the market."

"He's a smart man; he knows that only by deeply integrating HaoTuan and Tengda can there be a qualitative leap."

Little Ma seemed to be recalling something, "Do you remember Tenda's previous failures?"

"Facts tell us that traffic advantage is not the key to success for all business models. And when facing competitors, it's not always necessary to completely eliminate them."

"Yeah, what was even scarier back then was the feeling of being left behind by the mobile era. Fortunately, we launched WeChat in time and it was a huge success," Yu Sheng said, still feeling a lingering fear as he recalled it.

"Yeah..." Little Ma laughed.

"But that was all in the past. Now Tenda is in an invincible position because we have shares in most of the leading internet companies."

Yu Sheng smiled and said, "Yes, we only know this through past experiences. Some things can be done, and some things cannot be done."

"The consumer sector is not in our development plan; the gaming and entertainment sectors are our core business. Investing in companies in these sectors is sufficient."

Yu Sheng suddenly asked, "Mr. Ma, should we consider the other competitors in this track?"

Little Ma thought for a moment and shook his head. "There's no need for that. From what you've said, this kid is really cunning. Just based on what he's already revealed, it's enough to give the competitors a run for their money."

"He must still have a lot of tricks up his sleeve. Besides, we've heard that our old rival is also very interested in Haotuan.com. There's no need to cause any more trouble."

"That's quite possible... This person thinks three steps ahead for every one step they take." Yu Sheng agreed with this assessment.

"Alright, don't lose your composure. He's just a young man, not as scary as you think. He can't possibly be a clairvoyant or have perfect strategies, unless he's a time traveler?"

"There's no need to do something that harms others without benefiting ourselves. Besides, his vision and perspective are top-notch. Only a team led by this person is worth our investment; otherwise, it's just an empty shell company."

"Contact him and discuss the subsequent investment matters."

"That's the final decision," Little Ma said decisively.

"Okay, I'll go prepare now."

……

The meeting was postponed, from one day to three days.

The meeting venue was changed to an executive suite in a five-star hotel.

The reason for the delay was not because Tengda looked down on Li Haoyu; on the contrary, Tengda attached great importance to this cooperation.

Over the past few days, they have been conducting internal research and discussions overnight, and then determined the amount of investment and the resources to be allocated, as well as how to connect the traffic between the two companies, etc.

Other participants in the meeting included:

Xu Xin, who flew to Shanghai in person; Xiong Xiaoge from IDG; Yu Sheng, who was authorized by Pony Ma; and Li Haoyu himself.

A group of people held closed-door discussions in the hotel for two days and two nights.

Apart from the parties involved, no media outlets were notified, and apart from a few people including Guan Weiguang, even the top executives of the group were largely unknown.

The final outcome and investment ratio of Haotuan.com remain a secret.

However, it can be said that Li Haoyu has already achieved his initial small goal of earning 100 million yuan, and has even become quite wealthy.

The only pity is that he's now hiding his true colors in the dark; it's really tough!

Now the results of his successful fundraising have been leaked.

He planned to use this opportunity to give his competitors a "surprise".

But joy always needs to be shared, otherwise he'd be suffocating from keeping it bottled up.

It's been a long time since I've seen Yuan Yuan; it's time to meet his personal secretary.

Then, relax a bit more...
