Rebirth 2011

Chapter 414 Future short video double pride in hand [Online humble subscription]

"President Xu knows me?"

After hearing what the other party said, Gong Mingshan lifted the silver mirror frame on the bridge of his nose in surprise.

He didn't expect that this noble young master knew his identity.

"I have a little understanding of the Internet industry. Mr. Gong previously worked on the Jiujianfang website, so I heard a little bit about it."

Picking up a lychee, Xu Renshan talked about the way he got to know each other.

Before coming to this party, he had done his homework, and knew very much about Mr. Gong's life experience.

"It's my honor to be in Mr. Xu's eyes."

Although he doesn't know the specific identity of the other party, Gong Mingshan knows that the other party's identity is both rich and noble from the atmosphere of the other party's investment of 1000 million funds just now.

After some deliberation, Gong Mingshan began to introduce his new entrepreneurial project: "The information on the Internet is complicated now, which is very unfriendly to smartphone users. Data-based discovery and recommendation"

"Your idea is very good, how much money do you need?"

After listening to the other party's narration, Xu Renshan maintained his personality as a local tyrant, and asked about the other party's investment amount.

This kind of project worth several trillion yuan in the future, he will never let it slip away from his hands.

"At present, I have found an investment of 200 million yuan. Another 500 million yuan is needed, and I can give 35% of the shares."

Gong Mingshan, who was prepared, talked about the specific share of shares.

Although his original resources were not small, as a prudent entrepreneur, it is impossible to invest all his net worth unless he can clearly see the future prospects.

Now, the company has not yet been established, and no one knows what the future holds.

A qualified Internet rookie is to use investors' money to start a business.

"In this way, you don't need to find outsiders for your 200 million funds. I will invest 1000 million funds and need 49% of the shares."

After expressing his request, Xu Renshan continued to add: "In terms of related resources, I can help you contact TX, Meimei.com, and Jingxi Mall."

In order to win more shares in tomorrow's headlines, Xu Renshan showed off his muscles.

Although he does not have an Internet industry under his name, and he is not considered an Internet tycoon, he still has a lot of resources at his disposal.

This is also the reason why he previously invested in several other projects, and those managements were willing to accept Renyu's investment as a share.

These days, in the Internet industry, there are no resources and only funds, and those entrepreneurial stars who are above the top will ignore you.

Otherwise, the coal bosses would have smashed the industry down long ago.

"can."

Unexpectedly, the other party valued his entrepreneurial project so much. Gong Mingshan went through his mind quickly and agreed to the other party's request.

Sure enough, this is a hidden boss, the spokesperson of a mysterious consortium, and the resources are simply too great.

"Pleasant to work with."

Seeing that the other party agreed, Xu Renshan handed over a personal business card as usual.

"Thank you Mr. Xu."

Taking the business card with both hands, Gong Mingshan couldn't help feeling an unconcealable excitement in his heart.

Li Mengxiu, who hadn't left yet, listened to the entire conversation between the two, and felt extremely fortunate that she was able to get the investment from the other party.

After negotiating the investment, Xu Renshan continued to chat with the future short video Shuangjiao for more than half an hour.

During the period, several young entrepreneurs came to introduce the project. Xu Renshan listened carefully, but he only accepted the other party's business card and did not give his own personal business card.

As an angel investor standing on the shoulders of giants, Xu Renshan has a very rare vision, and ordinary projects can't catch his eyes at all.

Maintaining a friendly attitude towards these unknown little people is just a necessary demeanor for a God investor.

With a good reputation, more people will know about it, and maybe at any time, a lost pearl will automatically come to your door.

"Let's talk first, I'll go over there and sit down first."

Feeling that it was almost time to win over the relationship, Xu Renshan got up and went back to Mr. Chen's circle.

"How about it, seeing that you have gained a little bit?"

Chen Tian, ​​who occasionally paid attention to the other party, saw his eldest niece's partner come back, and asked with a smile.

It was so lively around the other party earlier, it was obvious that they had invested in the project, which made the Internet rookies in this hall move after hearing the news.

"The harvest is not bad, I invested in two small projects."

Speaking of what he had gained this time, Xu Renshan did not hide the joy in his eyes.

Who would have thought that in the future, the famous short video duo will appear together at this party, and even take the initiative to deliver it to his door, which really makes him unable to refuse the gift of fate.

In his previous life, he only played Douyin video under Tomorrow Toutiao, but never paid attention to Kuaixiu video, and naturally he didn't know the founder of the other party.

Even though he knew that Kuaixiu Video had a good future prospect, he knew that now was not the best time to enter the market, and he could wait another year or two.

The next two years will be a period of great waves for the short video industry. Whether it is Douyin, which has not yet appeared, or Kuaixiu, which appeared earlier, they have not shined during this period.

On the contrary, after most of the capital retreated, the two exuded an incomparably dazzling light.

In just a few more years, the shares of the two short video platforms he holds in his hand will bring tens of thousands of returns.

The title of angel investor can no longer describe him, no matter what, he has to be a god investor.

"I also took a fancy to a website just now. Diandi, which was launched early last year, currently has more than 500 million registered users. The fourth round of financing needs 5000 million US dollars. Are you interested?"

Without asking the other party what project they voted for, Chen Tianyi talked about the project he was interested in, and then asked the other party's opinion.

"Diandi.com? What do you do?"

Hearing the name of this website, Xu Renshan, who had no impression, asked about the other party's business.

"You young people don't even know that it is currently the largest micro-customer community."

Seeing that the other party had never heard of DiDi, Chen Tianyi took the initiative to introduce him.

"This model sounds very attractive. Why didn't Lanshan Capital, which invested before, follow suit?"

Frowning, Xu Renshan knew that this website basically had no future, so he directly found a tricky angle to ask.

As far as he knows, Mr. Shen of Lanshan Capital has amazing eyesight, and he will follow up with two or three rounds of investment in projects that are valued. He will continue to increase his holdings if the prospects are good, and he will reduce his holdings in due course if the future is unknown.

Projects like this that don’t follow suit after investing in the A round are obviously not very good.

What's more, 5000 million US dollars of funds is destined to make no noise, unlike him, who has gathered two projects with unlimited potential with only 2000 million US dollars.

"...you wait, I'll go to the side and make a phone call first."

After the other party asked such a question, Chen Tianyi couldn't help shrinking his eyes, got up and walked to the side.

As the leading capital of the A round, Lanshan Capital must know a lot of inside stories about DiDi.com. He and Shen Fang are also familiar with each other, so it is normal to ask each other.

5000 million US dollars of funds, even if they TX lead the investment, invite other capital to join, at least 2000 million US dollars, this is not a small amount.

"Brother Xu, do you have any good projects to recommend?"

While Xu Renshan was chatting with Mr. Yahu, another founder of S Tiger, Zhang Fengtai, came over and asked with a smile.

"Brother Zhang is joking, I am just a novice in the Internet field, and I have to rely on you, an old man, to guide me."

Hearing what Mr. Zhang said, Xu Renshan replied very modestly.

He seems to remember that the stock price of S Tiger exceeded 100 US dollars last year, and the peak market value was close to 50 billion US dollars, which can be said to be in the limelight.

Even if the market value of TX listed in Hong Kong City exceeds [-] billion, it cannot hide its beauty.

Who would have thought that ten years later, the S tiger would be less than a fraction of the market value of TX.

The cruelty of the Internet industry is evident.

Now, this Mr. Zhang is proud of his spring breeze, and he seems to be planning to vigorously develop a video website. He even had someone contact Qingguo Entertainment before, but unfortunately, TX Video has already taken the lead.

"Brother Xu is too modest, isn't he? I heard that you have just invested in two projects, and those young people are eager to try, and want to turn stone into gold from you."

The thin face is full of smiles, Zhang Fengtai wants to make friends with this fast-rising upstart in the capital market, so as to pave the way for the company's future development.

As far as he knows, the three companies under the other party's name are just a corner of Jinshan, with huge capital hidden behind them.

You can feel the majestic power of the Yuming Group, which has swelled to a valuation of tens of billions in just eight months.

No one can refuse to make friends with such an upstart.

"It's also a coincidence for me. I plan to enter the industry in the future. I don't know if Brother Zhang is interested in cooperating?"

Taking shares in two short video platforms with unlimited potential, Xu Renshan's trip was worthwhile, and there will be no better opportunities to toss in the Internet field in the future, so he might as well aim at the industry.

As many people have said, no matter how powerful the Internet bigwigs are, no matter how expensive they are, they have to shake hands obediently when they meet local industrial leaders.

The three companies owned by his wife belonged to the industrial scope, but their influence was limited. Among the three companies under his control, only Yuming Group barely counted as half of the industry.

Now, he has almost won the shares of some of the most brilliant Internet companies in the next ten years, and it is time to transfer from the Internet industry with no fixed foundation to industrial investment.

Investing in industry can not only help the development of people's livelihood, but also secretly increase one's own influence and escort huge wealth.

A truly successful entrepreneur is one who has money and status, who listens to what he says, and who is safe and secure.

It's a pity that the Yuande era was founded at the end of last year. By the time Xu Renshan remembered this, he had already missed the opportunity to become the founder.

However, the Yuande era is not a start-up team, but the power battery department of YTL, which has been developed for many years, was established with strong capital and not short of money at all.

However, after several rounds of financing, it became a unicorn in the field of new energy technology many years later.

Instead, he can buy some shares at the beginning of the other party's listing in a few years, and cash out at a high point in two years. As for the financing process in the middle, forget it. He would rather spend money tinkering with a new energy vehicle brand.

"Industry?!! Let's forget it. I don't have much money, so I can't afford industry. It's okay to buy a building."

Hearing the other party's invitation, Zhang Fengtai shook his head and declined.

These days, the industry cannot make money faster than the Internet.

Just like his company's stock, its video website set up a high-definition film and television channel, attracted some free website registered users, and the stock rose by half;
Once the headquarters of the branch company is completed, there will be a daily limit;
Publicized the acquisition of one or two game companies outside, and the stock rose again;

In a few days, I will learn from the founder of Xishi and build an ecosystem, and the stock will not be able to fly again.

Like those listed companies that do business, they work hard to make hundreds of millions of profits every year, and the stock price has not moved at all. It is too tiring to make money.

What's more, the investment in business is huge, and the capital return cycle is long. If you are not careful, you will be in vain, and you will not be able to get out easily.

Unlike the Internet industry, where investment risks can be quickly withdrawn, Zhang Fengtai does not want to get bogged down in the industrial field.

"That's such a pity."

Seeing that the other party was not interested, Xu Renshan, who successfully changed the subject, shook his head and sighed.

At this time, Chen Tianyi came back after finishing the phone call. Seeing someone else was there, he gave his nephew and son-in-law a look: "What are you talking about?"

"I said I wanted to invest in industry, but Mr. Zhang said that Internet companies are more profitable."

Regarding the previous topic of the two, Xu Renshan summed it up in a relatively short sentence.

"The Internet loses more money."

Hearing this topic, Chen Tianyi raised his eyebrows and added a sentence with emotion.

There are still a few leaders who stepped into this industry with him back then.

Just now, he learned from an old friend that DiDi’s difficulties cannot be solved by funds.

If DiDi.com fails to transform in a short period of time and maintain the stickiness of users, it is likely to be nothing.

However, no one can tell what the future holds.

He did not exaggerate the risks involved.

Of course, the investment is impossible to reinvest.

If the founder of DiDi.com could find new investors, it would be a willingness to fight and a willingness to suffer.

Breaking people's fortunes is like making a death feud, even if the status is as Chen Tianyi, he will not break this rule rashly.

"It's true, I think back then."

With Chen Tianyi talking, Zhang Fengtai began to recall the past, with embarrassment and pride in his eyes.

After all, after the big wave washed the sand, he is still the victor who is still active in front of the stage. He is worth more than tens of billions, so how can he not be proud.

This small gathering of the Internet industry started at 01:30 p.m. and lasted until five o'clock. During this period, several bigwigs specially reserved enough schedules and did not leave early.

"Okay, brother Xu treats you to dinner, let's all go to his restaurant to join in the fun."

As the lead organizer, Qiandu's Hong Yanchou talked about the dinner arrangements.

They all had afternoon tea at the West Lake Hotel for half a day, and then had dinner here, which was somewhat boring.

Coincidentally, Chen Tianyi contacted a barbecue restaurant before, so don't make any supper, just have dinner directly, how lively it is.

"it is good."

Hearing that it was the restaurant opened by the noble young master who had a good chat with many bigwigs, everyone present couldn't help being more interested.

Led by several bigwigs, a group of luxury cars drove to Nanshan Bamboo Garden on Zijin Road.

"It's reserved, I'll call and ask."

At this time, Shangguan Mingyan, who had just brought a friend over for dinner, was told that the bamboo garden was taken over by Xu Xiaodi himself, and immediately called.

"Sister Mingyan, what's the matter?"

After receiving the words from the Shangguan elder sister, Xu Renshan, who was chatting with Mr. Chen next to him, asked a little surprised.

Originally, Mr. Chen came here in a Mercedes-Benz S series. The TX headquarters is in Pengcheng, but there is also a branch in Hangzhou, and the pick-up is naturally a luxury car.

It's just that when Mr. Chen came out of the hotel just now, he insisted on getting into his Bentley, saying that Mr. Chen's Rolls Royce was a class higher than the Mercedes-Benz S series, which made Xu Renshan very helpless.

You have to believe the rumors in the Jianghu, and you can't fully believe them. Mr. Chen, big and small, still have signs in the dark.

"I just happened to come to Nanshan Bamboo Garden with my friends for dinner, and I heard that you booked the place by yourself."

Everyone arrived at the door, Shangguan Mingyan naturally didn't want to make an extra trip.

"There are still boxes, I'll tell the manager."

Hearing this, Xu Renshan immediately agreed.

There are only about forty people in their group, seven or eight boxes are enough, and it is definitely no problem to reserve one for Miss Shangguan.

"Row."

After hanging up the phone, Shangguan Mingyan said to the female friend next to him: "Let's go, I'll take you in to taste the specialties here."

"What kind of person is that little brother Xu you mentioned?"

Following the other party, the young woman in Hermes jacket asked with a smile.

"He, he already has a master."

"."

When they came to Nanshan Bamboo Garden, Xu Renshan sat in the same private room with two Mr. Chen, Mr. Qiandu Hong, Mr. Yahu Liu, and Mr. Shu Zhang. The rest of them found their own small circles.

The status in the circle was thus invisibly divided.

For this dinner, Xu Renshan had someone prepare 20 high-end ingredients, and took out 20 bottles of Lafite and Conti from his wife's private wine cellar, with a potential value of more than 70 million. Ten thousand.

The organization of this kind of gathering is not something ordinary people can afford.

Xu Renshan, who was half full after eating the delicious food prepared in advance by the restaurant, did not invite a professional barbecue chef to come over, but took the initiative to take charge of the barbecue in the private room.

The people present were considered to be the most beautiful group of people on the Internet in recent years. At this time last year, he was still a dispensable substitute teacher, but now he was chatting and laughing with these people at the same table.

The world is really changeable.

"Xiao Chen, the video website under your group has developed rapidly recently. How many registered members have been added to the several online dramas exclusively cooperated with Qingguo Entertainment?"

After eating barbecue and drinking Romanee-Conti, Zhang Fengtai, who was quite comfortable, asked Chen Tianyi next to him.

He was about the same age as Old Chen, and he was six or seven years older than Chen Tianyi. With his status as an Internet senior, it would be no problem to call him Xiao Chen.

"Not much, just an increase of more than 700 million."
