Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 122 Trust
New Year's Eve in 2001 is January 1rd.

Guahao.com has been officially recognized in Luzhou, and the Lunar New Year is approaching as soon as you are busy.

As of January 1, Guahao.com has 13 employees in Lin'an and 31 employees in Luzhou.

On this day, Guahao.com finally had an office outside the computer room in its base camp in Luzhou—a facade room.

"Xiao Fang, do you have any special feelings for front-facing houses? You still remember the night when Sequoia Capital came, we said in front of the big French windows that we would rent a better one in the future..."

Su Wei was a little bit unacceptable to the boss's choice.

"Well, this space is a little small, and it would be much better to find someone to make a sign later." Fang Zhuo didn't think there was anything wrong, "I will rent a better one in the 'later', it's not 'later' yet, The Lin'an side is similar to this, doing the same thing."

Su Wei shook her head and changed the subject: "We have to decide when we will go to work after the year. Besides, finances, what about our finances?"

Well... finances are such a big problem.

Fang Zhuo thought for a second, and said, "I won't go back to my hometown for the holidays this year. I will go to Shanghai to accompany my sister, and my mother will also be there. The finances will be in place after the next year."

"Really? Your cousin is willing to come?" Su Wei said unexpectedly.

Fang Zhuo didn't answer the conversation at all, and the topic changed quickly: "We only go to work after the Lantern Festival. It's unreasonable for people to go to the publicity hospital for Chinese New Year's Eve."

"..." Su Wei nodded, "I didn't expect this level, I just thought it was the same as other companies."

Fang Zhuo was fumbling for something to say when his cell phone rang.

Mother's call.

"Hey, Mom." Fang Zhuo called out very affectionately.

"Son, is that, that website you set up, just the registered one, really good?" Mother Zhao Shumei asked.

Fang Zhuo smiled and said, "Yes, I still want to report when I call you at night, why do you suddenly want to ask me this?"

"Oh, the son of your aunt Liu's sister received a job of painting the wall, saying that he went to the countryside to paint the words 'registration is on the registration network'." Zhao Shumei said seriously.

Fang Zhuo looked at the relationship, er, it's not complicated, I guess he should call him brother.

He couldn't help laughing: "That must be because our propaganda team has arrived, but how did they know to tell you about this..."

"Neighbors, sometimes when we chat and ask, I say that you are building a website, and the name of your website is not difficult to remember." Zhao Shumei said in disbelief, "Is this really easy to do? Can it make money? What kind of person Are you all here?"

"This matter is quite popular at the moment. A few days ago, some leaders said they would support our development in Luzhou. As for making money." Fang Zhuo thought about the venture capital money, and replied, "There are subsidies, and what we earn is the subsidy money." .”

Zhao Shumei worried: "The subsidy money is so easy to earn? Then it is impossible to subsidize it all the time."

"I wasn't in Lin'an a while ago, and those over there were also subsidized." Fang Zhuo said nonsense, "Our business is relatively advanced, and governments around the world support development. This is the best opportunity in front of us. Informatization construction requires money. Anyway, I can make money for a few years.”

"When I can't make any more money, I'll go to Yecheng to buy you a house, and we'll spend the winter there in the future, keeping it warm."

"When I buy a house, I know I want to buy a house. Every time I call back, I say I want to buy a house." Zhao Shumei was annoyed.

Fang Zhuo interjected, "Then will they listen? Are you willing to buy it?"

"Who can pay to buy a house just by listening to it? Besides, we didn't buy it ourselves." Zhao Shumei said as a matter of course.

"This, this." Fang Zhuo was rather helpless, indeed, let's persuade him later.

The mother and son chatted for a while, and then decided to go to Shanghai to accompany the aunt and cousin who were hospitalized for Chinese New Year.

This year’s Spring Festival is unable to reunite with the whole family. Fang Zhuo will spend New Year’s Eve in Shanghai with his mother, aunt, and cousin, while his father and uncle will handle affairs in their hometown. They will probably go to Shanghai during the Lantern Festival.

At the end of the call, Fang Zhuo couldn't help but sighed before putting away the phone.

"It's not easy to have a patient at home." Su Wei who was next to her heard half of what she said.

Fang Zhuo shook his head: "It's better than before. Shencheng's treatment conditions are very good. I heard from my aunt that my sister's chemotherapy performance is much better."

Su Wei encouraged: "It will get better."

Fang Zhuo nodded silently.

The mobile phone that had just been put away suddenly rang again.

"It seems that we need to hire a secretary for President Fang." Su Wei joked.

Fang Zhuo shrugged and saw that it was an unfamiliar local number.

"Hello."

"Hello, is Mr. Fang Zhuo from Guahao.com?" A middle-aged voice came from the phone receiver.

"Yes, it's me." Fang Zhuo asked, "What's the matter?"

"Oh, that's how it is. My side is from the Wan Provincial Trust and Investment Company." The middle-aged voice said, "Isn't our city encouraging and supporting informatization construction? Do you have any funding needs here? Where is the office? We can talk face to face."

Anhui Provincial Trust?Chen Shuhu?No, Lao Chen's voice is not this.

Fang Zhuo was a little dazed when he heard the name of this company, what kind of fate is this.

He licked his somewhat dry lips, and asked calmly: "I don't know much about this, er, trust company, right? What do you call it?"

"Yes, we are a state-owned enterprise, and you can get preferential treatment for your company in terms of capital and credit. I am Xu Hao, the manager." Xu Hao introduced, "We are also contacted by the city office. The Internet is relatively new in our city, and the leaders strongly support it. of."

"So that's the case, but, um, we don't have this demand for the time being." Fang Zhuo seemed to reject a phone call, and cited reasons, "We have sufficient funds on the books, and the bank in Lin'an has given Loan. Manager Xu, I'm sorry."

Xu Hao was very surprised: "Mr. Fang, we are interest-free."

"No, Manager Xu, because this year we have to consider dealing with venture capital. The first round of financing depends on the financial books, so the entry of credit funds is not considered for the time being. Thank you. If necessary, I will contact you as soon as possible." Fang Zhuo Racked his brains to refuse.

VCs?First round of financing?
Xu Hao had never done this kind of thing before, so he didn't say much, and hung up the phone after exchanging contact information.

He sat in the office and thought about it, dialed the phone number of the general manager Chen Shuhu, and reported: "Mr. Chen, the Internet company asked by the city office before should be good. I heard that there has been venture capital investment, and this year I am considering the first round of investment." financing."

"Oh? Guahao.com, right?"

Chen Shuhu, the general manager of Anhui Provincial Trust and Investment Company, has an impression of the website name, which is particularly easy to remember.

He thought for a while, and said: "Then you make a document and hand it in. If possible, we can also invest in the first round of financing, which is considered to support local companies."

"it is good."
