Chapter 340 It doesn't count
Qin Shaoyan sighed, "Sister Xu, you really can't blame me for this. I wanted to inform you, but what I said doesn't count."
" I can only be regarded as an accomplice at best. The mastermind requires us to keep it strictly confidential and not to disclose anything about the acquisition to the outside world. I have also signed several confidentiality agreements. If you don’t believe me, I will send it to you.”
"Forget it, forget it." Xu Xin didn't intend to delve into this matter. It has already passed. There is no point in worrying about it anymore. Uniting and looking at money is what a qualified investor should do.
"Mr. Qin called me. Do you have any advice?"
"I don't take advice as an advice. It's mainly about business matters." Qin Shaoyan said sincerely, "Sister Xu, we have been working together for so long and we all know the basics. It is good for me to think of you first."< br>
“YouTube was acquired by Microsoft, and China’s Internet market has also become hot. As the leading domestic video website, Qiaobo.com’s valuation has also increased.”
“I think it can. The next round of financing is about to start, just two months later. How about it? "
"Sister Xu, are you still with me?" Qin Shaoyan asked tentatively, "We are all on our own, something is wrong. It's easy to discuss."
Xu Xin sighed, "I don't plan to follow. The video website is popular, but you are burning too much money."
"We have small capital, so we won't join you in the trouble." Xu Xin said in a joking tone, "Go and ask those big VC institutions, they should be very willing to invest."
"I I don’t like dealing with other VCs, I’m too greedy.” Qin Shaoyan felt a little regretful, and then asked, “The shares of Qvod.com are very valuable now. If Sister Xu wants to sell it, I can help you contact the buyer.”< br>
"Huh?" Xu Xin's heart moved, and then she smiled, "No, I'm still waiting for Kuaibo to be launched, I should be able to make more."
"Sister Xu said to Kuaibo Bowang is very confident." Qin Shaoyan smiled.
"I have confidence in Mr. Qin." Xu Xin sighed, and then said, "Mr. Qin, remember to inform me of any new projects next time."
"No problem, we are our own people, so I won't bother you. You go about your business first." Qin Shaoyan said goodbye with a smile, and then hung up the phone.
Qin Shaoyan probably understood why Xiong Xiaoge was so angry at this time. Not making any money was more uncomfortable than losing money.
Give Qin Shaoyan another chance to choose, he will still choose to go it alone.
Notify you in advance?
Can I let you know about this first?
If you knew about it first, it would definitely be bad.
While humming, Qin Shaoyan called Zheng Nan from Sequoia.
"Mr. Zheng, good afternoon, oh, it's night over there, sorry." Qin Shaoyan said sorry, but in fact he didn't take it seriously at all, "How is your sleep quality lately, Mr. Zheng? "
"Mr. Qin, you are really hurting us." Zheng Nan complained half-seriously, "YouTube is a big surprise for us, and it is more surprising than happy."< br>
"Things happen for a reason, and I also have something to hide." Qin Shaoyan said again without sincerity, "It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's not something I don't do, I really can't."
"I don't blame Mr. Qin." Zheng Nan dropped the topic magnanimously, "Mr. Qin came to me so late, does he have any project to make money?"
"Of course, my mission is It is to create value for investors." Qin Shaoyan said righteously, "If there is any good news, I will be the first to inform Mr. Zheng. After all, Mr. Zheng, you are my first investor, unlike others."
Zheng Nan chuckled, "Then I'm all ears."
"Now that the domestic video website market is booming, it should be easy for other video websites to obtain financing, and the fierce competition will soon follow. competition." Qin Shaoyan said with a serious expression, "As the number one video website in the country, Qvod.com must be their key target."
"I think it's time to start the second round of financing. Get some funds to facilitate future expansion, and also to cope with the challenges of other peers.”
"Now that the valuation of Qvod.com has soared, it's a good opportunity to buy it."
"It's about financing." Zheng Nan pondered for two seconds, "I'm still thinking about it. After all, Qvod.com The valuation should be very large, and financing requires a large amount of funds. This matter needs to be discussed with other partners."
"Mr. Zheng, if you want to sell shares, you must inform me." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "I can contact the buyer and I am sincerely interested in purchasing."
"Absolutely." Zheng Nan said perfunctorily, "I will definitely inform Mr. Qin." "Mr. Zheng." Qin Shaoyan Suddenly lowered his voice, "Chaan Nengli Co., Ltd. wants to sell part of its shares to cash out. Do you need me to help you connect?"
Zheng Nan was startled and asked subconsciously: "How much do they want?"
"The price must be lower than the valuation. We are our own people and we will definitely not let Mr. Zheng suffer." Qin Shaoyan said mysteriously , "You know that I know that he knows about this, but I didn't notify the fourth party."
"Oh." Zheng Nan realized at this time that he had just made a mistake, and said slowly, "This I still need to discuss it with the other partners, and I will inform Mr. Qin first when we come to a conclusion."
"Then I will wait for the good news from Mr. Zheng," Qin Shaoyan said with a smile. The call was disconnected.
Now the situation is clear. Today Capital will no longer follow the investment. Sequoia will definitely follow. Softbank has a lot of money and there is no need to worry. The rest is Xiong Xiaoge’s attitude.
It doesn’t matter if Xiong Xiaoge doesn’t join the investment. Anyway, Qvod.com is so popular, and there are as many VC institutions as are willing to throw money into it.
As long as Qin Shaoyan lets the news go, people from the VC organization will line up outside the office the next day.
However, Qin Shaoyan is not interested in money yet. Qvod.com still has enough funds until the beginning of next year, so he can naturally wait slowly.
Now that he has fanned the flames of the video website, other colleagues may not be able to sit still.
In the past few days, there have been constant messages in the QQ group of the "Anti-Quick Broadcast Alliance". Hundreds of messages hit the screen every day, and small and medium-sized websites are excitedly discussing the current industry situation.
Every day, websites break the good news about getting investment, and the group members inevitably express their envy and congratulations.
The spring of the industry is really coming.
There is very little news about large video websites such as Tudou and Youku. They should be busy raising funds and developing websites. Naturally, they will look down on these poor brothers when they are rich.
......
Xiong Xiaoge's flight arrived in the United States the next day, and Qin Shaoyan personally took people to greet him and expressed his concern.
"Mr. Xiong." Qin Shaoyan saw Xiong Xiaoge coming out of the passage and greeted him enthusiastically, "Thank you for traveling all the way here. I have prepared a reception banquet. Should we go to the hotel first or the villa where I live?"
"Go to your place first." Xiong Xiaoge threw the luggage to the assistant and asked him to take it back to the hotel, then turned and got into Qin Shaoyan's car.
As soon as he sat firmly in his seat, secretary Xiao Chen handed over a hot towel, "Mr. Xiong, wipe your face."
Xiong Xiaoge took the towel and wiped it without saying a word He wiped it, took a deep breath, and said thank you.
"Mr. Qin is very clever." Xiong Xiaoge said lightly, "You are so good at this."
"YouTube and Yiku.com were sold at a good price, and by the way, the valuation of Qvod.com was also raised. I admire them."
"Mr. Xiong has given me the prize." Qin Shaoyan said modestly, "This is It’s purely a coincidence. I didn’t expect that Microsoft’s acquisition of YouTube would also increase the value of Kuaibo.com.” We stopped communicating until the right time came and reached an agreement."
"I didn't expect that everything happened together. It was such a coincidence."
"Yes, it happened by chance. It's just like it was arranged in advance," Xiong Xiaoge said angrily, "Mr. Qin made a lot of money this time, right?"
"I calculated that YouTube is US$2.3 billion and Yiku.com is US$300 million. This is US$2.6 billion."
Qin Shaoyan was stunned, "Where did you get US$2.6 billion? Mr. Xiong, you are not good at math. Ah.”
